WEBVTT - It's Gross When You Take It That Far

0:00:01.960 --> 0:00:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:06.320 --> 0:00:10.400
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty.

0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:22.520
<v Speaker 2>Arm Strong and Getty and he I'm Strong and Getty.

0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 3>There's a brief look at the text line. Most of

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:33.320
<v Speaker 3>the people are against the new first down marker for

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:35.960
<v Speaker 3>the NFL that they debuted last night, where they just

0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:39.360
<v Speaker 3>used the yellow line instead of having the referees run

0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:42.120
<v Speaker 3>out there with the chains. I do think that pro

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:44.440
<v Speaker 3>sports has got to be careful taking the human element

0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:48.520
<v Speaker 3>out of it. I understand the accuracy part makes sense,

0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:50.720
<v Speaker 3>like the strike zones in baseball and everything like that,

0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:56.040
<v Speaker 3>but there's something about humans doing it. I don't know.

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:59.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if it's it's difficult to argue that

0:01:00.200 --> 0:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>point of view than the accuracy point of view. It's

0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:07.560
<v Speaker 1>very easy to make that case. But I hate what

0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:10.240
<v Speaker 1>you get at the end though, might be a product

0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:11.880
<v Speaker 1>that's not nearly so compelling.

0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:14.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, i'd bitch. I've been bitching out replays for years

0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:16.480
<v Speaker 3>because it just slows down the game so much and

0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:17.880
<v Speaker 3>take to me, it takes the fun out of it.

0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:20.840
<v Speaker 3>But people always hardcore sports, for hard core sports fans

0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:23.120
<v Speaker 3>always make the most important thing is getting it right.

0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:26.639
<v Speaker 3>I think the most important thing is being entertained, and.

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:30.360
<v Speaker 1>Touch basketball is we're all sufferable, we're excited.

0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:33.679
<v Speaker 3>Touchdown it said, Nope, not flag on the field. Okay.

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:35.800
<v Speaker 3>Then we sit down in our seats and eight minutes

0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:38.559
<v Speaker 3>later they say it has been ruled a touchdown. Okay, yay.

0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Car said all scoring plays must be reviewed in New York.

0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:45.560
<v Speaker 1>So when I sit here padding and talking about what

0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 1>a nice catch that was until we get word on

0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:50.360
<v Speaker 1>whether you should shout and wave your arms in the

0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:51.200
<v Speaker 1>air or not.

0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 3>And I don't feel like it's changed that much anyway,

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:56.680
<v Speaker 3>I do. I don't feel like it's lessened the arguments

0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.360
<v Speaker 3>over that's as much anyway.

0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:04.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, you're right. Yeah, so you've opted for scientific

0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:07.440
<v Speaker 1>accuracy and it's satisfied practically no one.

0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 3>But it takes longer and slows down the game.

0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh, speaking of scientific accuracy, before we get into clips

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:14.119
<v Speaker 1>of the week, which we will on a second or two,

0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:16.680
<v Speaker 1>I was reading the rest of the second Wall Street

0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Journal piece about the Climate change EPA report, and that

0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 1>was written by a couple of limp wristed, low testosterone

0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:28.720
<v Speaker 1>male fellows reporters for the Wall Street Journal and it

0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:32.120
<v Speaker 1>was repeating all the cliches and canards of the pro

0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:37.560
<v Speaker 1>the Greta Tuneberg crowd that all sciences agreed on climate change.

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:41.200
<v Speaker 1>It's all human caused, and unless we all buy an

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:45.000
<v Speaker 1>electric car but not a Tesla, the polar bears will

0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 1>be boiling in the oceans by the end of the week.

0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:49.680
<v Speaker 3>I love the taste of boiled polar beard falls right

0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:52.680
<v Speaker 3>up the bone, you know, it keeps it tender.

0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, what was that? Where was I? Oh? And it

0:02:56.919 --> 0:03:01.040
<v Speaker 1>was interesting to read how often they appear they made

0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:05.119
<v Speaker 1>the appeal to experts. They said, Experts, on the other hand,

0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:09.839
<v Speaker 1>say the scientific consensus is ironclad and blah blah blah.

0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 1>And I was remembered, reminded of one of the great

0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 1>pieces of shorthand that I've learned in the last I

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:19.239
<v Speaker 1>don't know how many months. And that's somebody pointed out,

0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:24.440
<v Speaker 1>experts are almost one hundred percent quote unquote experts almost

0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:26.399
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent academics. Yeah.

0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:28.120
<v Speaker 3>I think it was a Wall Street journal that figured

0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:30.520
<v Speaker 3>that out, And that's it changed my view of it

0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:33.040
<v Speaker 3>for the rest of my life. When I hear experts.

0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:36.160
<v Speaker 1>Academics are virtually one hundred percent yes.

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:37.840
<v Speaker 3>When they say an expert, that means they went to

0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:40.520
<v Speaker 3>the local university and talked to an expert in that field.

0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 3>And what are their politics likely? You know what that

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 3>is right?

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Overwhelmingly so, so that word now experts is loaded as

0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:52.680
<v Speaker 1>I will be as soon as we get off work. Anyway,

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:56.520
<v Speaker 1>it's the Friday tradition. It's time to take fun look

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:58.360
<v Speaker 1>back at the week there was. It's cow clips of

0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:00.440
<v Speaker 1>the week.

0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:06.640
<v Speaker 2>There's too much going on in this country.

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:09.480
<v Speaker 1>As people's do process rights and put up the speech rights,

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:11.880
<v Speaker 1>and secret police are running around this country.

0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:16.000
<v Speaker 3>I should be working right now instead, I'm probably nine

0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 3>at the gym.

0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:20.240
<v Speaker 1>What he really should have been talking about is I

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.080
<v Speaker 1>wonder if this will help me win back faink thing,

0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:26.799
<v Speaker 1>because that's actually more believable. Recently I made the decision

0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:28.880
<v Speaker 1>that I just for now, I don't want to go

0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:36.760
<v Speaker 1>back in the system. I think it's broken. Quoted showing

0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.520
<v Speaker 1>people attacking a man who has shoved to the ground

0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:40.800
<v Speaker 1>and kicked several times.

0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:44.240
<v Speaker 3>I terrifying you drug trying to sweeping our streets. It's

0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:48.440
<v Speaker 3>called seven hydroxy, but someone calling it gas stationed heroin.

0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:51.480
<v Speaker 1>A woman confronts a man at a Barnes and Noble

0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:55.680
<v Speaker 1>for getting uncomfortably close, seeming to sniff her. What are

0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:56.080
<v Speaker 1>you doing?

0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.560
<v Speaker 3>And the vision that we've put forward, despite what others

0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:01.599
<v Speaker 3>may say, is not to defund the police. That is,

0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:05.320
<v Speaker 3>in fact, to allow those officers to respond to the

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:06.440
<v Speaker 3>serious crimes.

0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:08.920
<v Speaker 4>I came out of that book of the Vietnam that

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.160
<v Speaker 4>in aged ten years or two hundred pages.

0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:15.400
<v Speaker 1>What the oh my, oh my god.

0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:19.800
<v Speaker 3>He stole people that work for me. I said, don't

0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:20.640
<v Speaker 3>ever do that again.

0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:23.160
<v Speaker 1>He did it again, and I threw him out of

0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:26.080
<v Speaker 1>the place. I think you worked in the spot.

0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:29.599
<v Speaker 3>I think so, seeing heer.

0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Katy Perry was spotted on a date with Canada's former

0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:38.000
<v Speaker 1>Prime minister, Justin Trudeau. I know who knew she was

0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:45.040
<v Speaker 1>a lesbian. It's the girl for sure. James are passed

0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:50.679
<v Speaker 1>on from parents to offspring, often determining traits like her color, personality,

0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:57.080
<v Speaker 1>and even eye color. Sidney Sweeney has great geenes. The

0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:04.560
<v Speaker 1>pun good geens activates troubling historical associations. You don't get to.

0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:08.360
<v Speaker 4>Drop lines about inherited traits blue eyes and great genes

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.400
<v Speaker 4>while zooming in on somebody that could have walked straight

0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:14.440
<v Speaker 4>off of a Nazi propaganda poster clips.

0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Saying wow.

0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:27.520
<v Speaker 3>And then a cow sound.

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 1>I am gratified and relieved that the reaction in that hole,

0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:37.440
<v Speaker 1>someone who walks straight off a Nazi recruiting poster is

0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:40.880
<v Speaker 1>mostly being greeted with hoots of derision, which it should

0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:43.240
<v Speaker 1>have been all along, who tents sort of thing?

0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:47.720
<v Speaker 3>While the Dow is down over seven hundred points. Oh now,

0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:51.280
<v Speaker 3>this is a fair headline as investors digest hiring slowdown

0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:52.440
<v Speaker 3>and new Year's tariffs.

0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Y have both and.

0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:56.400
<v Speaker 3>Who knows what percentage of which are The market doesn't

0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:57.839
<v Speaker 3>like uncertainty.

0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Joe, No, it doesn't, hates it. I hate to.

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:03.600
<v Speaker 3>Bring this up on a Friday. This is a horrible story,

0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:06.040
<v Speaker 3>but we haven't mentioned it yet today. How about the

0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:11.520
<v Speaker 3>roughly at least fifty people killed in an ISIS linked

0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:15.080
<v Speaker 3>attack on a Christian church in Africa yesterday? That gets

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:16.840
<v Speaker 3>some zero news coverage.

0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:22.840
<v Speaker 1>There were over a thousand of those poor folks slaughtered

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:28.560
<v Speaker 1>in Syria for their religion and their tribe by Islamists

0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 1>and that got zero attention. You're concerned about genocides and cruelty, no,

0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:40.320
<v Speaker 1>nothing selectively crick. Yeah, the Drus, I'm sorry their name

0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:41.600
<v Speaker 1>escaped me. Momentarily.

0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:46.600
<v Speaker 3>Every once in a while, I get depressed about reading

0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:52.560
<v Speaker 3>history when I come across stuff that is true but

0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:55.440
<v Speaker 3>nobody knows, and it makes me wonder, why do we

0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:59.840
<v Speaker 3>even bother? Why do we even bother pretending there's such

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 3>thing is history, because we kind of just choose, I mean,

0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:06.560
<v Speaker 3>like we're even doing currently which things were outraged about

0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:09.760
<v Speaker 3>and what things aren't. And that happens long form with history.

0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:12.560
<v Speaker 3>All kinds of things get lost to history, and it

0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:15.360
<v Speaker 3>makes me wonder, I'm not sure what the point is.

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:17.560
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I can study things that are written, but

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:21.000
<v Speaker 3>there are all kinds of things that I'll use an example,

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:23.440
<v Speaker 3>I had never come across this before in my life.

0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:26.520
<v Speaker 3>We're coming up on the anniversary of dropping the bomb

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 3>on Japan, and that's going to be a reopen that

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.200
<v Speaker 3>discussion again in the eighty year anniversary. The seventy five

0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:35.439
<v Speaker 3>year anniversary was in obviously five years ago, summer of

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 3>twenty twenty. We were deep in COVID, so we were

0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:40.200
<v Speaker 3>so busy with all that going on, it didn't really

0:08:40.200 --> 0:08:42.360
<v Speaker 3>get to do it should have gotten and I think

0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:45.440
<v Speaker 3>it's going to be this time around. And you know,

0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:47.480
<v Speaker 3>in the modern era, a lot of people try to

0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 3>make the argument all the time that we cruel cruelly

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:54.120
<v Speaker 3>dropped the bomb on the poor Japanese who were just

0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:56.240
<v Speaker 3>on the Verger surrendering and all that's bs and we'll

0:08:56.240 --> 0:08:58.480
<v Speaker 3>talk about that in a couple of weeks on the anniversary.

0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:03.480
<v Speaker 3>But I'd never come across this. So Russia got involved

0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.280
<v Speaker 3>on the eighth of August. If you know your history,

0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.480
<v Speaker 3>we dropped the first bomb on the sixth, the second

0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.640
<v Speaker 3>bomb on the ninth. Russia realized, uh, oh, war's about over.

0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:13.120
<v Speaker 3>If we want to get in on this part of

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.680
<v Speaker 3>the world, we better jump in now. So they got

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:21.920
<v Speaker 3>involved on the eighth and invaded parts of Manchuria and

0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:24.680
<v Speaker 3>various areas that had been held by the Japanese. The

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:28.120
<v Speaker 3>Japanese were slaughtering people by the thousands a day and

0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:32.440
<v Speaker 3>other places not Japan, and that ended with the bombing also,

0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:39.400
<v Speaker 3>but that never gets mentioned. The Russians took captive so

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:45.679
<v Speaker 3>many Japanese soldiers and just Japanese citizens. They killed multiples

0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:50.280
<v Speaker 3>more Japanese in the weeks after the bombings. Then we

0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:53.120
<v Speaker 3>killed with the bomb. I wasn't aware of that, by

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:55.840
<v Speaker 3>starving them to death or just shooting them or whatever.

0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:59.760
<v Speaker 3>In the way that the Russians do. Wow, multiples more

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:01.800
<v Speaker 3>than we killed with the bombs were killed by the

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Russians days later.

0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:10.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, you can't. Don't. I don't think most people

0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:15.720
<v Speaker 1>fully appreciate, maybe even I don't the extent to which

0:10:15.920 --> 0:10:22.800
<v Speaker 1>self hatred or hatred of your own country is completely

0:10:22.960 --> 0:10:25.319
<v Speaker 1>required among progressives.

0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:28.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that is a deal breaker.

0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:33.840
<v Speaker 1>If you don't express loathing of your country and the willingness,

0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:37.800
<v Speaker 1>the enthusiasm for picking out any sin, real or imagined

0:10:38.080 --> 0:10:40.880
<v Speaker 1>and ignoring anybody else's, you can't be in the club

0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:45.800
<v Speaker 1>at all. And so they that's why they're so selective.

0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:50.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't get it. I can reckon with the sins

0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:53.200
<v Speaker 1>of America and the triumphs, what a wonderful country we are,

0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:56.160
<v Speaker 1>and what mistakes we've made. It doesn't bother me. We're

0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:59.439
<v Speaker 1>human beings, human beings screw everything up. It's what we do.

0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:01.760
<v Speaker 3>And reach the end spot where we're still the best

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:06.720
<v Speaker 3>country on earth given our power, and maybe, quite possibly

0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:08.760
<v Speaker 3>Charles C. W. Cook writes about this all the time,

0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:11.720
<v Speaker 3>most likely the best country that has ever existed, given

0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:13.680
<v Speaker 3>the power to do what we could do that we

0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:14.839
<v Speaker 3>don't do, which is.

0:11:14.880 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, try to take over the world. You remember that

0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:21.240
<v Speaker 1>when we had that montage of wolf Blitzer saying good

0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:22.959
<v Speaker 1>thinger a bad thing, good thing or a bad thing,

0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:25.400
<v Speaker 1>good thing or bad thing, because that was always his

0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:31.680
<v Speaker 1>go to. And unless you're talking about wanton murder or

0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:35.000
<v Speaker 1>falling in love with your soulmate, most things are kind

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:35.680
<v Speaker 1>of a mix.

0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:39.920
<v Speaker 3>So falling in love with your soul mate, good thing,

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:41.520
<v Speaker 3>a bad thing. Yeah it's a pretty good thing.

0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:44.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah it's a good I'll give you that. All the

0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:47.360
<v Speaker 1>United States of America unequivocally a good thing with some

0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:50.000
<v Speaker 1>bad stuff mixing. I said good tunger a bad tack.

0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:52.520
<v Speaker 1>I said good thinger a bad tack. You can't elaborate.

0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:54.559
<v Speaker 1>And that's the way a lot of people look at

0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:56.840
<v Speaker 1>the world. I don't get it.

0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:59.560
<v Speaker 3>Well, my final on this because just what you mentioned,

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:01.960
<v Speaker 3>it's weird to me that there's a I know some

0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:05.160
<v Speaker 3>people like this, some people that their politics are progressive.

0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:09.440
<v Speaker 3>They seem to get some pleasure out of talking about

0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:12.480
<v Speaker 3>anything bad or wrong the United States has ever done.

0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:14.440
<v Speaker 3>And that strikes me as so odd. Why do you

0:12:14.480 --> 0:12:17.959
<v Speaker 3>get enjoyment out of that? What's that weird? Self hating?

0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:21.559
<v Speaker 3>It makes me feel so good to talk about slavery

0:12:21.679 --> 0:12:24.000
<v Speaker 3>or bombing Japanese or huh.

0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:27.040
<v Speaker 1>It's because they know that's what they're supposed to do

0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:29.600
<v Speaker 1>and they will get social approval by doing that.

0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:32.360
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So it's the social approval that makes them feel good.

0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:36.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and they've become convinced that that is a show

0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:37.920
<v Speaker 1>of their own excellent morality.

0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:41.480
<v Speaker 3>Because that's weird to me. All Right, we got more

0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:42.760
<v Speaker 3>on the way. If you have a thought on that

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:45.320
<v Speaker 3>text line four one five two nine five KFTC.

0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:52.520
<v Speaker 1>You might know him as the other JT, the Principop

0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:56.240
<v Speaker 1>former in sync superstar Justin timber Like fans have been

0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:59.160
<v Speaker 1>noticing that he has been seeming a little low energy.

0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.400
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that's all we need out of that. Justin Tibberlake

0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:04.439
<v Speaker 3>has a lime disease. But Jake Tapper saying you might

0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:07.199
<v Speaker 3>know him as the other JT Justin Tibberlake. And what

0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:09.760
<v Speaker 3>did you just say that with a straight face?

0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:12.439
<v Speaker 4>Is that to bring this back, to bring this back

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:13.079
<v Speaker 4>from yesterday?

0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:18.280
<v Speaker 1>What a douche canoe? You know what I'm saying? An

0:13:18.320 --> 0:13:24.600
<v Speaker 1>odd craft really? Okay, so a couple of notes of

0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:29.240
<v Speaker 1>no great significance, but are amusing the UN Climate Change

0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:33.800
<v Speaker 1>Conference back to the Climate is coming up soon in Brazil,

0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:38.240
<v Speaker 1>and this is the same conference that they bulldozed like

0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:44.400
<v Speaker 1>twenty five thousand acres of rain forest to expand the road. Well,

0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:48.080
<v Speaker 1>they also have a real hotel room crunch and so

0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Brazil's Love Motels, that's in quotes, that's what they're known as,

0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:56.720
<v Speaker 1>known for dance poles and leopard print walls, are preparing

0:13:57.080 --> 0:14:00.000
<v Speaker 1>to house attendees of this year's You Tell Climate Change.

0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:03.880
<v Speaker 1>What's a love Motel? I'm glad you asked, Jack. The

0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:08.760
<v Speaker 1>erotic motels normally reserved for quote lunch hour trysts, clandestine affairs,

0:14:08.800 --> 0:14:12.000
<v Speaker 1>and passion struck lovers seeking a few hours of privacy

0:14:12.240 --> 0:14:15.400
<v Speaker 1>away from cramped family homes, are now getting ready for

0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 1>hosting quote diplomats and climate scientists, civil servants and environmental activists.

0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:23.560
<v Speaker 1>They had November. According to The New York Times, their

0:14:23.640 --> 0:14:24.640
<v Speaker 1>culture they have.

0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:28.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean, we all know the crappy hourly hotels exist

0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:30.520
<v Speaker 3>in the bad part of town. Most of us have

0:14:30.600 --> 0:14:32.480
<v Speaker 3>only heard about them. We don't ever see them. But

0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:35.480
<v Speaker 3>they have, Like that's more common. It sounds like it's

0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:37.920
<v Speaker 3>more a common cultural thing to have a hotel that's

0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:38.920
<v Speaker 3>set aside for.

0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Again, Yeah. And one interesting aspect of this I just

0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:47.160
<v Speaker 1>read it, but it's easy to let go by, is

0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 1>that they're known for seeking a few hours of privacy

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.200
<v Speaker 1>away from cramped family homes. And if you've ever seen

0:14:53.400 --> 0:15:00.400
<v Speaker 1>some of the lower class neighborhoods in Brazil, they're they're very,

0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:03.320
<v Speaker 1>very tiny homes, all jammed together in a big jumble.

0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:09.360
<v Speaker 3>Plus, I understand multiculture, multicultural, multi generational living is much

0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:12.560
<v Speaker 3>more common in that culture, where you know, grandma and

0:15:12.600 --> 0:15:14.760
<v Speaker 3>grandpa and the grandkids or whoever in the same house.

0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:17.400
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, the chance to have a little alone time

0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:20.280
<v Speaker 3>might be few and far between. So having a hotel

0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:22.600
<v Speaker 3>where you could go get a room seems like a

0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:23.040
<v Speaker 3>good idea.

0:15:23.560 --> 0:15:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And so they're going to convert a lot of

0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:29.560
<v Speaker 1>these love hotel rooms. You know, go ahead and scrub

0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:34.920
<v Speaker 1>it down twice. I'll pay extra for the climate change conference.

0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:40.200
<v Speaker 3>So you find love making disgusting and dirty, that's interesting,

0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:41.200
<v Speaker 3>tell us more about that.

0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:46.440
<v Speaker 1>Only if you do it right. Local officials face scrutiny

0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:49.240
<v Speaker 1>early this year for paving over tens of thousands of

0:15:49.240 --> 0:15:52.520
<v Speaker 1>acres have protected Amazon rainforest, or for us to build

0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:55.920
<v Speaker 1>a four lane highway aimed at easing traffic to the conference.

0:15:57.080 --> 0:16:00.320
<v Speaker 1>Last year's conference also made headlines when a beer rude

0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:03.960
<v Speaker 1>from recycled toilet water became a hit among its en des.

0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:09.000
<v Speaker 3>All right, everything's recycled toilet water. Every drop of water

0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:13.920
<v Speaker 3>you ever drink is recycled. It's whale P dinosaur P.

0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:19.320
<v Speaker 3>I do have a beef with the hotel industry. I've

0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:21.680
<v Speaker 3>come up across this several times in my life. I

0:16:21.720 --> 0:16:25.840
<v Speaker 3>don't understand why the economics don't work for being able

0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:29.200
<v Speaker 3>to use a hotel between like eleven o'clock and three

0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:32.440
<v Speaker 3>o'clock during the day. How is it better for the

0:16:32.480 --> 0:16:34.920
<v Speaker 3>hotels to have it completely empty where I can't say,

0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:38.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, I'll give you a hundred bucks if I

0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:43.320
<v Speaker 3>can be there from eleven to two because of my schedule,

0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:46.080
<v Speaker 3>as I could sleep, you're better off having it empty,

0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:49.200
<v Speaker 3>costs that much to clean it or what.

0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. A lot of cities have laws against that. Well,

0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:57.080
<v Speaker 1>they're not used as brosseels. Oh that's what does Well,

0:16:57.080 --> 0:16:58.880
<v Speaker 1>we got to change his own. I just said, there's

0:16:58.880 --> 0:17:01.200
<v Speaker 1>a new thing called Daho Hotel past thing that's starting

0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:03.760
<v Speaker 1>to catch on hotels that are trying to get around

0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:06.399
<v Speaker 1>that where you can like get it for half the

0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:08.920
<v Speaker 1>day or whatever, or do reduced rate because it's just

0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:11.720
<v Speaker 1>sitting there and making nobody any money. I didn't get

0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:13.080
<v Speaker 1>to the best quote in this art.

0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:14.240
<v Speaker 3>Oh well that's next.

0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:19.240
<v Speaker 1>They ruined it. Armstrong and Getty. Listen to this.

0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:21.840
<v Speaker 2>Sketchers just released a new line of kids shoes that

0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:24.320
<v Speaker 2>have a hidden air tag compartment under the insol.

0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:27.840
<v Speaker 2>They're also offering them to grandparents who wander off of them.

0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:32.000
<v Speaker 1>All Grandpa's over by the Pande Express.

0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:35.840
<v Speaker 3>So well, that's pretty interesting. You put an air tag

0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:37.919
<v Speaker 3>in your kids the tongue of your kid's shoe and

0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:43.760
<v Speaker 3>track them. I guess like a beast. Your kids get

0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:45.840
<v Speaker 3>very old at all. They either have a watch or

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:46.880
<v Speaker 3>a phone you're tracking.

0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, So we're talking about these love hotels in

0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:56.720
<v Speaker 1>Brazil that are going to be converted to regular hotels

0:17:56.720 --> 0:18:00.119
<v Speaker 1>for the big Giant Climate Conference. A couple of the

0:18:00.800 --> 0:18:03.879
<v Speaker 1>quotes that I found delicious, we didn't have time for

0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:09.280
<v Speaker 1>them because Jack interjected a real life relevant aspect to

0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:14.800
<v Speaker 1>the story. Very rude, said Ricardo to Chera, who manages

0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:17.800
<v Speaker 1>two such motels. Quote. People think it's like a brothel,

0:18:17.960 --> 0:18:21.240
<v Speaker 1>but it's just a space like any other Right, he's

0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:24.080
<v Speaker 1>not sure if he will stop offering sex toy rentals

0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:24.680
<v Speaker 1>in the room.

0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:30.680
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that seems more brothel adjacent. Oh a rental.

0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:34.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, I've heard if it flies or floats,

0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:37.600
<v Speaker 1>you're better off renting it. Certainly, if it you know,

0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:41.040
<v Speaker 1>fill in the blank, I'd go ahead and buy it.

0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:42.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, on your own.

0:18:43.119 --> 0:18:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, just be sure of everything anyway. I don't

0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:47.879
<v Speaker 1>want to go too far down that road. And then

0:18:47.920 --> 0:18:52.080
<v Speaker 1>my favorite quote you're on. Costa, the owner of Motel Secretou,

0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:56.120
<v Speaker 1>said he is quote taking out anything too erotic from

0:18:56.160 --> 0:18:58.399
<v Speaker 1>the rooms. But I have to think about what comes

0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:00.800
<v Speaker 1>after the summit. I can't just a ton of money

0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:03.640
<v Speaker 1>and tear everything out. As Costa took the New York

0:19:03.720 --> 0:19:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Times Reporter on the tour of the motel, the two

0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:10.560
<v Speaker 1>heard quote loud moans this might be a bit awkward.

0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:13.119
<v Speaker 1>Costa said, there's love making going on.

0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:18.199
<v Speaker 2>Oh.

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:20.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why I love that so much, but

0:19:20.040 --> 0:19:20.320
<v Speaker 1>I do.

0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:22.960
<v Speaker 3>I do like when industries get disrupted with a brand

0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:24.639
<v Speaker 3>new idea. And that's what I was talking about this

0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:28.160
<v Speaker 3>last segment. You know, like taxis were the same thing forever,

0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:31.879
<v Speaker 3>then all of a sudden, because of app technology. It

0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:34.199
<v Speaker 3>just completely blow up the whole industry. And then the

0:19:34.280 --> 0:19:36.399
<v Speaker 3>idea of like you got a nice house and you're

0:19:36.440 --> 0:19:38.560
<v Speaker 3>on vacation, why not rent it out for the whole

0:19:38.560 --> 0:19:40.000
<v Speaker 3>time you're gone to somebody who might want to be

0:19:40.000 --> 0:19:44.680
<v Speaker 3>in your area. I mean, that is a obvious, obvious

0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:48.360
<v Speaker 3>once it happens sort of idea. And there's this thing

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:52.160
<v Speaker 3>that's starting I hope catches on with hotels where we're

0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:57.159
<v Speaker 3>making no money a lot of times because there's no reason, no,

0:19:57.200 --> 0:19:59.479
<v Speaker 3>somebody doesn't want to stay the whole night, and then

0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:01.800
<v Speaker 3>nobody's in here between like ten and three or ten

0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:04.880
<v Speaker 3>and four whatever, every single day we're getting nothing where

0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:07.119
<v Speaker 3>people can just buy a chunk of the day for

0:20:07.240 --> 0:20:10.200
<v Speaker 3>a napper. I suppose there's kind of twists or whatever,

0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:13.600
<v Speaker 3>but for whatever your situation is. And hotels are starting

0:20:13.640 --> 0:20:16.159
<v Speaker 3>to do that or their spot. So you got a

0:20:16.280 --> 0:20:19.240
<v Speaker 3>nice hotel, you got your pool area, you got your gym, whatever,

0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:22.439
<v Speaker 3>there's nobody in it on a Tuesday at two o'clock.

0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:24.800
<v Speaker 3>You're making nothing. And now you can buy these like

0:20:24.920 --> 0:20:28.840
<v Speaker 3>day passes where you can go do that for less money,

0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:31.480
<v Speaker 3>but they make some money. And I'll bet that industry

0:20:31.720 --> 0:20:35.440
<v Speaker 3>a year from now, two years from now looks completely different. Wow,

0:20:35.680 --> 0:20:37.919
<v Speaker 3>where you can go to your local you're nearby hotel,

0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:40.439
<v Speaker 3>nice decent hotel and sleep for a couple hours, workout

0:20:40.480 --> 0:20:42.960
<v Speaker 3>if you want for a reasonable price, instead of it

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:45.320
<v Speaker 3>nobody making any money and nobody being able to use it.

0:20:46.000 --> 0:20:52.160
<v Speaker 1>People who are devotees, they're enamored with the central control,

0:20:52.200 --> 0:20:56.000
<v Speaker 1>government control. I don't get you. The free market is

0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:59.959
<v Speaker 1>so exciting and so much fun and so clever. Americans

0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:03.520
<v Speaker 1>are incredibly ingenious people. We come up with all sorts

0:21:03.560 --> 0:21:08.040
<v Speaker 1>of crazy ideas. The ones that aren't good they go away. Oh,

0:21:08.119 --> 0:21:10.399
<v Speaker 1>the need for control, I just don't get it this.

0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:12.399
<v Speaker 3>Did you have something you want to get into here?

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:14.760
<v Speaker 1>I did, But god I do. It doesn't matter.

0:21:14.880 --> 0:21:17.160
<v Speaker 3>I was going to talk about this article in Fortune magazine.

0:21:17.160 --> 0:21:20.120
<v Speaker 3>The AI boom is now bigger than the nineties dot

0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:23.879
<v Speaker 3>com bubble, which is legendary and discussed as you know,

0:21:23.920 --> 0:21:26.600
<v Speaker 3>a major moment in time in all kinds of different ways.

0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:31.680
<v Speaker 3>And it's built on the backs of bots, mostly which

0:21:31.760 --> 0:21:36.959
<v Speaker 3>I don't think most of us know. Many of us

0:21:36.960 --> 0:21:39.480
<v Speaker 3>have had this situation where you think maybe you're chatting

0:21:39.520 --> 0:21:43.640
<v Speaker 3>with somebody real like helping you on a website or whatever.

0:21:43.680 --> 0:21:45.720
<v Speaker 3>Then you finally figure out it's not real. It's not

0:21:45.760 --> 0:21:47.720
<v Speaker 3>a real human being. That is happening more and more,

0:21:47.720 --> 0:21:49.879
<v Speaker 3>and they're going to get better and harder to suss

0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:53.040
<v Speaker 3>out than they've ever been before. But the majority of

0:21:53.240 --> 0:21:57.439
<v Speaker 3>traffic out there, at least according to Hanson who actually

0:21:57.440 --> 0:21:59.920
<v Speaker 3>read this thing, is that there are more bots out

0:21:59.920 --> 0:22:00.560
<v Speaker 3>there there than not.

0:22:01.480 --> 0:22:06.760
<v Speaker 1>When you're so the majority of its bots, Yeah, I

0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:11.080
<v Speaker 1>always assume I'm talking to a bot, you do. Yeah, boy.

0:22:11.119 --> 0:22:12.960
<v Speaker 3>I had a good one last night. And I don't

0:22:12.960 --> 0:22:14.439
<v Speaker 3>know if this counts as that sort of thing, but

0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:19.520
<v Speaker 3>I got a phone call from and it said spam

0:22:19.600 --> 0:22:21.639
<v Speaker 3>risk on there. It was a local area code, but

0:22:21.800 --> 0:22:24.320
<v Speaker 3>not a number I know. And I answered it and

0:22:24.400 --> 0:22:29.320
<v Speaker 3>it was a very convincing real person in the beginning,

0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:32.600
<v Speaker 3>Hey Jack, how's it going? And I said pretty good. Hey,

0:22:32.640 --> 0:22:35.360
<v Speaker 3>I just got a question for you about your uh,

0:22:35.440 --> 0:22:38.359
<v Speaker 3>your checking account. I said, okay, cool, what what are

0:22:38.400 --> 0:22:40.360
<v Speaker 3>you calling about? And they said, oh, it's that thing

0:22:40.400 --> 0:22:42.400
<v Speaker 3>with you, and then it just it was vague enough

0:22:42.440 --> 0:22:45.479
<v Speaker 3>it became clear that and then I tried to interrupt

0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:47.720
<v Speaker 3>once and it kept talking, Oh, you're not a real person,

0:22:48.200 --> 0:22:49.320
<v Speaker 3>but it was really good.

0:22:49.359 --> 0:22:49.880
<v Speaker 1>It took me.

0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:53.320
<v Speaker 3>Several sentences in before I figured out it wasn't a

0:22:53.359 --> 0:22:55.000
<v Speaker 3>real human being. And you know it's going to be

0:22:55.040 --> 0:22:58.440
<v Speaker 3>way better two years from now, Yes, Katie.

0:22:58.280 --> 0:22:58.600
<v Speaker 1>I think.

0:22:58.760 --> 0:23:00.919
<v Speaker 4>I think part of what this study is referring to

0:23:01.040 --> 0:23:05.720
<v Speaker 4>also is like you can purchase followers, right so Instagram, Twitter.

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:06.919
<v Speaker 1>If you go to somebody who.

0:23:06.760 --> 0:23:09.600
<v Speaker 4>Has like a page that might have fifty thousand followers

0:23:09.640 --> 0:23:12.639
<v Speaker 4>to it, but every one of their posts gets like

0:23:12.720 --> 0:23:16.600
<v Speaker 4>twelve likes, you know they bought their followers, and you

0:23:16.600 --> 0:23:18.480
<v Speaker 4>can buy them, buy the hundreds of.

0:23:18.440 --> 0:23:21.960
<v Speaker 3>Thousands really and oh yeah, is it pretty cheap?

0:23:22.320 --> 0:23:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, super cheap.

0:23:25.359 --> 0:23:27.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. The problem is we all know what the spam

0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:29.760
<v Speaker 3>phone calls and emails and all that sort of stuff is.

0:23:29.760 --> 0:23:32.760
<v Speaker 3>It costs them nothing. It's not like the old days

0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:36.240
<v Speaker 3>where it costs you something to send you a an

0:23:36.280 --> 0:23:43.320
<v Speaker 3>AD in the mailbox. So the the incentive didn't work

0:23:43.359 --> 0:23:47.320
<v Speaker 3>to send out a million flyers into mailboxes if you

0:23:47.320 --> 0:23:49.600
<v Speaker 3>weren't going to get in responses. That's not true with

0:23:50.440 --> 0:23:53.720
<v Speaker 3>these robo calls and emails everything like that. It costs

0:23:53.760 --> 0:23:56.760
<v Speaker 3>them nothing to send out a billion every second, and

0:23:56.800 --> 0:24:00.200
<v Speaker 3>if you get one response, it's a profit. Don't know

0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:01.000
<v Speaker 3>how we're ever gonna.

0:24:00.760 --> 0:24:03.199
<v Speaker 1>Get past that. Yeah, I don't. Yeah, I don't know

0:24:03.640 --> 0:24:05.639
<v Speaker 1>speaking of that sort of thing. I was just I

0:24:05.680 --> 0:24:11.720
<v Speaker 1>saw the headline yesterday, big text, four hundred billion dollar

0:24:11.920 --> 0:24:15.840
<v Speaker 1>AI spending spree. You just got Wall Street's blessing. It's

0:24:15.880 --> 0:24:20.480
<v Speaker 1>about Microsoft and Meta and Google and Amazon and x

0:24:20.520 --> 0:24:26.280
<v Speaker 1>and everybody's spending like lunatics on AI. And speaking of

0:24:26.320 --> 0:24:30.239
<v Speaker 1>the dot com bubble, Okay, well, what does what does

0:24:30.280 --> 0:24:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Wall Street think of the companies that they're invested in

0:24:34.119 --> 0:24:37.800
<v Speaker 1>spending that wildly on AI? And the story was, well, yeah,

0:24:37.920 --> 0:24:41.040
<v Speaker 1>it's it's going up. Everybody seems to think it's fine,

0:24:41.119 --> 0:24:44.320
<v Speaker 1>the stock is going up, and got Wall Street's thumbs up.

0:24:44.320 --> 0:24:47.479
<v Speaker 1>But then today I'm looking at stocks and you know,

0:24:47.520 --> 0:24:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Apple is down, going on two and a half percent,

0:24:50.880 --> 0:24:55.840
<v Speaker 1>and Tesla's down, Google's down, everything's down.

0:24:55.920 --> 0:24:59.520
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I don't, Well I don't respond to one day.

0:25:00.320 --> 0:25:02.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, no, neither do I. That's that's kind of the point.

0:25:02.720 --> 0:25:04.800
<v Speaker 1>The Nasdaq as a whole is down almost two percent,

0:25:04.920 --> 0:25:08.000
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I don't. It's difficult to draw that sort

0:25:08.000 --> 0:25:11.199
<v Speaker 1>of conclusion, but yeah, they are spending abstounding amounts of

0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:13.520
<v Speaker 1>money on developing AI technology.

0:25:13.720 --> 0:25:19.560
<v Speaker 3>Somebody was making the point yesterday about the this was

0:25:19.640 --> 0:25:22.920
<v Speaker 3>the whole If the tariffs are going to cause such disruption,

0:25:23.040 --> 0:25:25.600
<v Speaker 3>why are we setting records in the stock market every

0:25:25.640 --> 0:25:28.480
<v Speaker 3>single day? And somebody broke it down on and this

0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:31.960
<v Speaker 3>has been true for a long time now, that the

0:25:32.000 --> 0:25:36.359
<v Speaker 3>stock market, specifically the Dow, but the stock market is

0:25:36.400 --> 0:25:40.720
<v Speaker 3>driven so much by Nvidia and Apple and a couple

0:25:40.800 --> 0:25:43.879
<v Speaker 3>other companies that it kind of distorts a lot of

0:25:43.920 --> 0:25:47.200
<v Speaker 3>other companies that haven't been doing that well. Right, And

0:25:47.359 --> 0:25:49.280
<v Speaker 3>you just if you're just kind of like barely paying

0:25:49.280 --> 0:25:51.720
<v Speaker 3>attention like me, you just hear the stock market saying

0:25:51.720 --> 0:25:54.720
<v Speaker 3>a record. But if it's all tech stocks betting on AI,

0:25:56.160 --> 0:25:59.679
<v Speaker 3>you don't know. And Apple said the tariff situation they

0:25:59.720 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 3>think going to cost him well over a billion dollars

0:26:03.400 --> 0:26:09.800
<v Speaker 3>this next quarter. How that gets passed through the bloodstream,

0:26:09.840 --> 0:26:10.240
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:26:12.160 --> 0:26:15.160
<v Speaker 1>One more tech story that I thought was interesting. Autonomous

0:26:15.160 --> 0:26:18.200
<v Speaker 1>trucks are now driving the highways of Texas at night,

0:26:18.840 --> 0:26:21.800
<v Speaker 1>hauling food and dairy between Dallas and Houston. It's big step.

0:26:21.880 --> 0:26:25.239
<v Speaker 1>Waimo has been driving driver less robotaxis around like San

0:26:25.280 --> 0:26:30.199
<v Speaker 1>Francisco in LA but autonomous trucks have been stuck mainly

0:26:30.280 --> 0:26:35.200
<v Speaker 1>to some experiments, daytime hours and good weather. But now

0:26:35.320 --> 0:26:38.840
<v Speaker 1>this company, Aurora Innovation that's the startup behind the trucks

0:26:38.920 --> 0:26:42.520
<v Speaker 1>in Texas, said it's reached a new milestone with its

0:26:42.800 --> 0:26:43.840
<v Speaker 1>lidar system.

0:26:43.960 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's what they got in the new Tesla is

0:26:45.640 --> 0:26:47.760
<v Speaker 3>the lidar as opposed to be whatever the old.

0:26:47.600 --> 0:26:51.320
<v Speaker 1>System was, and Aurora says its system is now able

0:26:51.359 --> 0:26:53.840
<v Speaker 1>in the dark. Totech objects further than the length of

0:26:53.920 --> 0:26:57.360
<v Speaker 1>three football fields, enabling the vehicle to identify pedestrians, other

0:26:57.440 --> 0:27:00.520
<v Speaker 1>vehicles are debris on the road about eleven seconds, sooner

0:27:00.520 --> 0:27:03.840
<v Speaker 1>than a human driver eleven seconds. Yeah.

0:27:03.880 --> 0:27:06.120
<v Speaker 3>I was talking to Darren over in sales. He's got

0:27:06.119 --> 0:27:07.919
<v Speaker 3>one of the new Tesla Whyse and I've got the

0:27:07.920 --> 0:27:11.040
<v Speaker 3>cyber truck that has the light. Are also the current

0:27:11.160 --> 0:27:14.360
<v Speaker 3>automated driving thing. And I've been doing it for four

0:27:14.440 --> 0:27:17.040
<v Speaker 3>years now, three years now. It's night and day better

0:27:17.119 --> 0:27:20.480
<v Speaker 3>it is. It is shockingly good. He was talking about

0:27:20.520 --> 0:27:22.440
<v Speaker 3>how it makes moves sometimes that are better than he

0:27:22.440 --> 0:27:25.159
<v Speaker 3>would have done because you can't see where it can see.

0:27:25.840 --> 0:27:27.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean it's seeing things you can't see what the

0:27:27.880 --> 0:27:32.240
<v Speaker 3>light are, so makes traffic choices you wouldn't make because

0:27:32.240 --> 0:27:35.000
<v Speaker 3>it knows there's there's a It seems like you should

0:27:35.000 --> 0:27:36.840
<v Speaker 3>switch to the right lane to go around, but it

0:27:36.920 --> 0:27:38.760
<v Speaker 3>sees that you're better off sting in the left lane

0:27:38.760 --> 0:27:40.800
<v Speaker 3>because it can see things you can't see.

0:27:41.200 --> 0:27:43.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I'd love to know more about it how that works.

0:27:43.600 --> 0:27:44.520
<v Speaker 1>I believe you, Mike.

0:27:44.640 --> 0:27:47.280
<v Speaker 3>Mike, my cyber truck did a merging thing yesterday that

0:27:47.400 --> 0:27:51.720
<v Speaker 3>was shockingly good. I mean, a very complex maneuver. I thought, wow,

0:27:51.880 --> 0:27:52.720
<v Speaker 3>that is something else.

0:27:52.840 --> 0:27:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Katie, what would.

0:27:53.920 --> 0:27:56.760
<v Speaker 4>Be really amazing if during the winter, if it can

0:27:56.800 --> 0:27:59.800
<v Speaker 4>detect like black ice or something like that, to find

0:27:59.840 --> 0:28:02.760
<v Speaker 4>that in the land, because that's a huge problem.

0:28:03.200 --> 0:28:05.320
<v Speaker 3>Uh yeah, I don't know how they're going to handle that.

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:07.960
<v Speaker 3>Although human being's ability to drive on black ice is

0:28:08.000 --> 0:28:08.520
<v Speaker 3>not very good.

0:28:08.640 --> 0:28:12.400
<v Speaker 4>So all the carcan detect that the road texture is changing.

0:28:12.600 --> 0:28:13.880
<v Speaker 3>Sure, that would be a good thing.

0:28:14.040 --> 0:28:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, knowing it's there is the key. So how

0:28:17.080 --> 0:28:21.000
<v Speaker 1>long before like ninety percent of America's truck drivers are unemployed?

0:28:21.200 --> 0:28:23.760
<v Speaker 3>I wonder I heard the stat on how how many

0:28:23.840 --> 0:28:27.080
<v Speaker 3>jobs are driver related. It's a really big number. I

0:28:27.119 --> 0:28:29.840
<v Speaker 3>think it's like ten percent of all workers have a

0:28:29.920 --> 0:28:32.720
<v Speaker 3>driving aspect. To it and if that gets taken away, yeah,

0:28:32.960 --> 0:28:34.120
<v Speaker 3>that'll be a huge disruption.

0:28:35.720 --> 0:28:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Coming up. A sad story inside the Corporation for Public

0:28:40.600 --> 0:28:45.040
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting board meeting after the big vote to rescind their funding.

0:28:47.320 --> 0:28:49.520
<v Speaker 3>I am going to really enjoyable. Do I get to

0:28:49.600 --> 0:28:50.960
<v Speaker 3>drink some liberal tears here?

0:28:51.800 --> 0:28:54.560
<v Speaker 1>You are going to be lapping them up like a

0:28:54.600 --> 0:28:55.560
<v Speaker 1>thirsty hound dog.

0:28:55.680 --> 0:28:58.120
<v Speaker 3>Jack. It's actually kind of gross when you take it

0:28:58.120 --> 0:29:04.840
<v Speaker 3>that far. Okay. We got that next day briefly because

0:29:04.840 --> 0:29:06.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to get into this can of worms.

0:29:06.880 --> 0:29:10.000
<v Speaker 3>We got a ridiculous number of texts about Lydar in

0:29:10.040 --> 0:29:13.160
<v Speaker 3>Tesla's and automatic driving cars that that Tesla does not

0:29:13.280 --> 0:29:16.040
<v Speaker 3>use lightar and Elon musk Head fairly famously. If you're

0:29:16.080 --> 0:29:18.000
<v Speaker 3>into the sort of thing, and none of you are, said,

0:29:18.080 --> 0:29:20.200
<v Speaker 3>Lydar is a fool's air, And several years ago then

0:29:20.240 --> 0:29:22.840
<v Speaker 3>did a U turn into start putting Ldar in his

0:29:23.080 --> 0:29:26.880
<v Speaker 3>newest cars, but only as a backup to the cameras

0:29:26.960 --> 0:29:29.560
<v Speaker 3>or something or other, whatever the hell, and I don't

0:29:29.600 --> 0:29:32.360
<v Speaker 3>care it. Also, y'all argue with yourself about that.

0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:37.240
<v Speaker 1>Lydar reminds me of the liger. That's my favorite animal.

0:29:37.840 --> 0:29:40.120
<v Speaker 3>This is interesting, though, Lightar is a way to like

0:29:40.200 --> 0:29:43.440
<v Speaker 3>help self driving cars. The price dropped in a couple

0:29:43.480 --> 0:29:47.200
<v Speaker 3>of years from roughly one hundred thousand dollars per unit

0:29:47.360 --> 0:29:48.960
<v Speaker 3>that it would cost to if you want to light art,

0:29:49.040 --> 0:29:51.560
<v Speaker 3>to a thousand. That's how much how much cheaper the

0:29:51.600 --> 0:29:53.760
<v Speaker 3>technology got in a fast amount of time.

0:29:54.160 --> 0:29:58.719
<v Speaker 1>That's crazy, I know crazy. In a completely unrelated story,

0:29:58.760 --> 0:30:02.520
<v Speaker 1>and multiple officials at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting wept

0:30:02.600 --> 0:30:06.320
<v Speaker 1>during a board meeting last week, and the agency's president

0:30:06.360 --> 0:30:09.920
<v Speaker 1>recited lines from a Shakespeare tragedy, all in an outpouring

0:30:09.920 --> 0:30:13.160
<v Speaker 1>of emotion and drama over the Congress's vote to cancel

0:30:13.200 --> 0:30:17.800
<v Speaker 1>the organization's budget fund NPR and other public media outlets

0:30:17.800 --> 0:30:25.880
<v Speaker 1>because of its overwhelming insufferable liberal bias. CBPCPB president Pat

0:30:25.920 --> 0:30:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Harrison and the organizations for board members took part in

0:30:29.080 --> 0:30:32.760
<v Speaker 1>a board meeting. Harrison acknowledged bias at CPB, which she

0:30:32.800 --> 0:30:37.080
<v Speaker 1>has overseen for twenty years. Quote is there bias? In

0:30:37.160 --> 0:30:39.960
<v Speaker 1>an audio recording of the meeting. Sure, we're not perfect,

0:30:40.040 --> 0:30:43.080
<v Speaker 1>but we are working on that. No give me, adding

0:30:43.160 --> 0:30:45.400
<v Speaker 1>that the leftward slant of public media is quote not

0:30:45.440 --> 0:30:48.960
<v Speaker 1>a legitimate reason to shut down everything. That's funny that

0:30:49.000 --> 0:30:53.280
<v Speaker 1>contradicts claims from Democrats and the NPR Chief executive Catherine Mayer,

0:30:53.320 --> 0:30:57.480
<v Speaker 1>who infamously told Congress in March that a sometimes the

0:30:57.600 --> 0:30:59.480
<v Speaker 1>truth gets in the way of the things we need

0:30:59.520 --> 0:31:03.720
<v Speaker 1>to do and said I have never seen political bias

0:31:03.760 --> 0:31:04.360
<v Speaker 1>at NPR.

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:07.400
<v Speaker 3>You don't need to go into those quotes. It contradicts

0:31:07.480 --> 0:31:12.440
<v Speaker 3>my earballs, It contradicts everybody's earballs. Whoever listens to NPR

0:31:13.040 --> 0:31:15.560
<v Speaker 3>this morning, I speaking of my cyber truck. I threw

0:31:15.680 --> 0:31:17.760
<v Speaker 3>up in my car, in my trucks when I got

0:31:17.800 --> 0:31:19.240
<v Speaker 3>to clean it up. It's been sitting in the hot sun,

0:31:19.400 --> 0:31:23.120
<v Speaker 3>probably grows. When I heard an ad they keep running

0:31:23.120 --> 0:31:26.280
<v Speaker 3>on NPR about how great they are and they're going

0:31:26.320 --> 0:31:28.920
<v Speaker 3>to tough it out during these difficult times since Trump

0:31:28.960 --> 0:31:31.280
<v Speaker 3>pulled the funding on NPR, and one of them said

0:31:31.720 --> 0:31:34.680
<v Speaker 3>it was some caller saying, keep speaking truth to power.

0:31:35.120 --> 0:31:37.640
<v Speaker 3>We will, Jim, we will. And that's when I vomited

0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:39.160
<v Speaker 3>all over the inside of my cyber truck.

0:31:39.920 --> 0:31:42.320
<v Speaker 1>The rest of the board meeting was a sombra affair,

0:31:42.360 --> 0:31:45.080
<v Speaker 1>with Harrison and several board members breaking into tears while

0:31:45.080 --> 0:31:48.040
<v Speaker 1>discussing the funding cuts, which they cast as an existential

0:31:48.080 --> 0:31:55.960
<v Speaker 1>crisis for American democracy. Never in fifty eight years and

0:31:56.040 --> 0:31:59.040
<v Speaker 1>the operations as CPB in our public media system been

0:31:59.120 --> 0:32:06.200
<v Speaker 1>so maligned attacked, said a bored person reappointed by Joe

0:32:06.240 --> 0:32:09.440
<v Speaker 1>Biden in twenty twenty two. It's a terrible miscarriage. Harrison

0:32:09.480 --> 0:32:12.320
<v Speaker 1>grew emotional during her remarks, which she ended by reading

0:32:12.600 --> 0:32:16.200
<v Speaker 1>a speech from the Shakespeare tragedy Henry the Fifth, given

0:32:16.200 --> 0:32:18.560
<v Speaker 1>on the eve of the King's battle against the French

0:32:18.720 --> 0:32:20.480
<v Speaker 1>army at the Battle of AJung.

0:32:20.600 --> 0:32:22.640
<v Speaker 3>Could the Saint Crispin Day speech.

0:32:23.160 --> 0:32:26.000
<v Speaker 1>With apologies to Shakespeare and King Henry the Fifth, whose

0:32:26.080 --> 0:32:28.760
<v Speaker 1>ragtag army was outnumbered by the French at the Bottle

0:32:28.800 --> 0:32:32.920
<v Speaker 1>of Ajuncorps. But despite those went on to win against

0:32:33.000 --> 0:32:38.040
<v Speaker 1>those odds and hold their on her cheap. There weren't

0:32:38.120 --> 0:32:40.880
<v Speaker 1>just like them. Everybody will wish they were with us

0:32:40.920 --> 0:32:45.800
<v Speaker 1>fighting today, aimed for that win for public media, and

0:32:45.840 --> 0:32:48.840
<v Speaker 1>then they compared themselves to Russell Crowe and Master and commander.

0:32:48.880 --> 0:32:49.720
<v Speaker 1>But we're out of time.

0:32:50.360 --> 0:32:57.640
<v Speaker 3>Hey kids, it's that time again with Armstrong Ngetdy. Here's

0:32:57.680 --> 0:33:00.600
<v Speaker 3>your host for final thought, Joe Getty.

0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew.

0:33:02.600 --> 0:33:04.720
<v Speaker 1>Michael An's low in the control room, Lead us away,

0:33:05.160 --> 0:33:07.760
<v Speaker 1>lead us off. Michael Well, PBS needs money, so get

0:33:07.800 --> 0:33:09.640
<v Speaker 1>ready for a lot of pledge breaks. So a lot

0:33:09.640 --> 0:33:13.440
<v Speaker 1>of Lawrence Welke and Bob Ross and begging for money.

0:33:13.440 --> 0:33:15.440
<v Speaker 1>So hope you like the tote bags and all that stuff.

0:33:15.640 --> 0:33:17.600
<v Speaker 3>Hope space in your closet for tote bags.

0:33:18.160 --> 0:33:20.960
<v Speaker 1>Peter, Paul and Mary from nineteen eighty six. We'll get

0:33:21.000 --> 0:33:23.800
<v Speaker 1>back right after a quick word from our local celebrity,

0:33:24.200 --> 0:33:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Katie Greener, a steam Newswoman. As a final thought, Katie.

0:33:26.840 --> 0:33:30.240
<v Speaker 4>Speaking of tote bags, if you guys use the reusable.

0:33:29.840 --> 0:33:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Grocery bags, clean them out.

0:33:32.520 --> 0:33:35.040
<v Speaker 4>Take a wipe, clean out the inside.

0:33:34.680 --> 0:33:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Of the bag. It'll save your groceries and it'll save

0:33:37.600 --> 0:33:38.160
<v Speaker 1>your checker.

0:33:38.760 --> 0:33:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Just do it, so criss Jack of final thought, I

0:33:41.960 --> 0:33:44.600
<v Speaker 3>used to have the entire Saint Chrispin's Day speech memorized

0:33:44.640 --> 0:33:47.000
<v Speaker 3>from Henry the Fifth and Englishman Now a bed will

0:33:47.000 --> 0:33:49.760
<v Speaker 3>hold their lives cheap. That they were not here with

0:33:49.840 --> 0:33:55.160
<v Speaker 3>us to give that speech about NPR not getting taxpayer

0:33:55.240 --> 0:33:58.640
<v Speaker 3>money to be a progressive outlet for their news is hilarious.

0:33:59.160 --> 0:34:01.480
<v Speaker 1>My final thought. The captain of the ship, they're under

0:34:01.480 --> 0:34:04.400
<v Speaker 1>heavy fire in Master and Commander there's a little boy,

0:34:04.400 --> 0:34:06.880
<v Speaker 1>a little midshipman, and he tucks down, and the captain

0:34:06.920 --> 0:34:09.600
<v Speaker 1>played by Russell Krowe, he reaches over the little boy

0:34:09.600 --> 0:34:12.759
<v Speaker 1>and he says, stand tall on the quarterdecks, all of us.

0:34:12.920 --> 0:34:15.800
<v Speaker 1>That's what I'm gonna think about you, Pat continued Rothmann.

0:34:15.960 --> 0:34:19.520
<v Speaker 3>You've stood tall at the quarterdeck under heavy and unfair fire.

0:34:19.960 --> 0:34:26.640
<v Speaker 3>You people are insane, actually crazy. See him Monday. God

0:34:26.719 --> 0:34:28.680
<v Speaker 3>bless America.

0:34:29.680 --> 0:34:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Armstrong and Getty. We're very proud to have entertained you.

0:34:33.440 --> 0:34:38.520
<v Speaker 3>This week on the Armstrong and Getty. But right now

<v Speaker 1>We return same time next week with another stunning show

0:34:48.600 --> 0:34:58.640
<v Speaker 1>with moments like this that you show. No the olive

0:34:58.719 --> 0:35:04.480
<v Speaker 1>oil and Rosemary trisk it for the sophisticated non child palette.

0:35:04.600 --> 0:35:05.480
<v Speaker 3>It is crap.

0:35:05.520 --> 0:35:07.279
<v Speaker 1>If you have to dress it up that much, well

0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:14.319
