Our beloved newsmen 0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:41.039 of the past, Marshall Phillips would occasionally be confronted by 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:45.560 aggressive turkeys during hot, hot turkey lovin season, which we 0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:48.280 are in, we have more turkeys in my neighborhood. 0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:50.120 I gotta believe I got more turkeys around me than 0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:53.200 anybody listening in America. It's shocking how many turkeys are 0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:55.600 in my neighborhood. The big giant wild turkeys. They're huge 0:01:55.640 --> 0:02:00.320 for one thing, absolutely gigantic and. 0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.360 Mean as hell. During hot, hot, sexy turkey time. 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.280 When I drive home today, there will be six of 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:10.239 them sitting on my roof. Guaranteed eight more in the backyard. 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:14.800 They're all over the place. They don't cause any problems. 0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:18.120 Sometimes they're a little loud, they. 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:18.680 Get into it. 0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:24.160 Okay, So I got to handle this very delicately.

So this, this, well, 0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:40.320 this is why we can't have nice things. As the 0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:46.560 cliche goes, this is why demagoguing issues in politics works. 0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:47.800 I guess so. 0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:50.200 An hour three, if you didn't hear it, get the 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:52.600 podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand. Joe got into the 0:02:52.639 --> 0:03:00.800 whole big beautiful bill Medicaid thing. We're getting ripped off 0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:03.840 like crazy with Medicaid. We're gonna get into more of 0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:06.040 it tomorrow with Craig Gottwalas, who is an expert in this. 0:03:06.120 --> 0:03:09.760 But we're getting ripped off like crazy all kinds of 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:14.880 healthy people. You're paying for their health care and other 0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:18.640 stuff for no good reason whatsoever other than then nobody 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:19.840 keeps track of this sort of thing. 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:24.200 And because it buys votes, that's like the entire reason 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:25.000 you're paying for it. 0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:29.120 And Phil Graham, former senator from from Texas from back 0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:30.880 in the day, tried to run for president once but 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:33.079 he's way too smart to be president, has a PhD 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:37.640 in economics, wrote a piece about how, no, this is 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:41.080 where the money is. You talk about Social Security, you know, 0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:43.520 and cutbacks and everything like, No, the money where we 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:48.960 need to do something is in Medicaid. So we get 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:53.800 this text, Hey, I have a daughter who's disabled and 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:58.200 on Medicaid and Social Security, and I get to you 0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:00.280 guys who are trying to get people riled up and 0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:03.200 listening to show and I'm a strong Republican. But what 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.360 you're missing is and then she lays out the story 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:08.560 of how her disabled daughter can't take care of herself 0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:10.960 at all, never will be able to in her life. 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:15.680 Unbelievable what you're dealing with. I can't even imagine, and 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:18.839 how she needs that money, and we don't have the 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:20.839 courage to call her back and talk to her and 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:23.840 get the facts on this story about her disabled daughter 0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:25.839 and how much she needs mediciate. 0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:31.159 There will not be a single disabled person affected in 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:33.920 any way by the proposed cuts, not one. 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:37.839 And there isn't a single person us or anybody else 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:43.480 arguing for someone like your daughter having their money cut. 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:47.520 You strenuously one hundred and eighty degrees in the other direction. 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:53.720 This is why you demagogue these issues though, because he 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:56.840 is it's sir that yes, her poor daughter and she 0:04:56.920 --> 0:04:58.960 will be left high and drive by the mean Republicans. 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:02.640 That is one hundred eighty degrees opposite of the truth 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:06.839 you said. They've convinced her. We convinced her even with 0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:08.960 you only talking about. 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:10.479 The scammers right. 0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:14.800 Her takeaway was like you and I are in favor 0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:18.800 of cutting her daughter's money. I mean, if that's the 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:22.800 way it lands, no wonder politicians don't come with on 0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:25.720 one hundred miles of even trying to stop the sky 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:27.640 scumbag liars. 0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:31.160 Right. Yeah, it's unfortunate, isn't it. 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:36.520 It is highly unfortunate. You could stand and we've seen this, 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:38.320 We've been doing this for a long time. You can, 0:05:38.360 --> 0:05:40.479 as a politician, stand up in front of a crowd 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:44.400 and say, look, nobody here currently getting Social Security that's 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.839 over the age of sixty five will see any a 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:49.600 dime of that cut in their lifetime. But and then 0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:52.480 everything after the butt gets portrayed as you, as an 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:56.440 old person, are gonna starve, right, And it's just there's 0:05:56.520 --> 0:06:01.120 just no getting around it, apparently, right, Right, man, I 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:04.680 feel for you, ma'am. What a rough situation you're in 0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:09.320 doing God's work trying to deal with that. But nobody 0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:14.480 us or anybody is suggesting cutting the program for people 0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:19.239 like your daughter. Nobody, right, We would have more money 0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:23.080 for people like your daughter if the freaking healthy twenty 0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:25.600 eight year old dude playing video games and laughing at 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:31.320 us wasn't getting all his stuff paid for, right. I 0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:33.479 don't know what you do with the reality of this. 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:40.200 I think if you were to sit down with Carl 0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:44.160 Rove and James Carvill, I'm trying to be by party 0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:51.680 maybe Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Charles Crouthammer, Jesus and John Wayne. 0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:57.080 They would that's quite a crowd, they would say, Jackie boy, Joseph, 0:06:57.160 --> 0:07:03.160 here's the story. That's what Paula is grow up. You 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:06.479 always talk about trying to frighten or entice the herd 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:09.720 in one direction or another, as if you're too good 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:13.000 and too smart for that. That's politics. 0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:15.680 I understand what you're saying, that the politicians go out 0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:17.080 there and try to frighten you on this stuff. What 0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:22.720 I'm concerned about is we made it clear we weren't trying. 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:26.760 We weren't claiming they're coming for your to take your 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:29.920 disabled daughter's medic care. Politicians will say that sort of 0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:30.800 stuff Medicaid. 0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:32.240 Yeah, we weren't. 0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:35.800 We were saying the opposite, and it's still landed as 0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:36.560 if we were. 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:40.440 That's what troubles me. Yeah, I think that's squarely in 0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:44.360 the department of things. I can't do anything about. It's 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:50.080 it's striking. I totally get your being troubled by that. 0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:53.680 Like I said, if you're a politician, you get up 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:55.760 on stage and make it clear that I'm not interested 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:57.680 in cutting your social security. But people walk out of 0:07:57.720 --> 0:08:01.400 the room thinking they're going to take my social secure. Yeah, 0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:03.560 well that we're done here then I. 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:07.120 Guess yes, correct, as a as a country, you mean, yes, 0:08:07.200 --> 0:08:10.680 or as a system of government people, well right, self 0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:14.960 governance doesn't work, that's my point. M uh yeah. Well 0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:18.560 the great Scottish philosopher what's his face? Uh with the 0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:22.120 you know, the republic will last only until the populace 0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:25.400 realizes they can vote themselves money from the treasury. And 0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:28.720 and what he didn't suspect is that, or maybe he did, 0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:33.679 was that there that politicians would be able to convince 0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:38.480 virtually all of the population that any effort to rein 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.480 that in was indeed an attack on them and their 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:46.480 well being. So uh yeah, it just it doesn't work. Uh. 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:51.520 The great you know, overarching Joe Getty principle, there are 0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:54.360 actually several of them, many of them contradict each other, 0:08:55.240 --> 0:09:01.880 is that all systems can last only until those who 0:09:01.960 --> 0:09:06.840 had gained the system win over those who would protect 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:10.040 a system. And it's like, you know, the constant battle 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:15.600 between hackers and cybersecurity experts. There comes a point in 0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:20.959 a like a governmental system where accommodation of manipulating the 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:24.800 voters and then manipulating the systems behind the scenes becomes 0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:30.920 so sophisticated that the immune system of democracy is insufficient. 0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:36.040 It's like a septic infection in the bloodstream. So monarchy now, 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:38.480 I don't know, I'm old. You all figured out. Good luck. 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:45.679 If you're old already, nobody is going to touch your 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:51.760 social security period. Now, if you are actually disabled, nobody's 0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:52.760 going to take your money. 0:09:52.920 --> 0:10:00.160 Period. Nobody wants to. Nobody's even suggested it, right, and 0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:02.960 yet it is the easiest cell in the world. If 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:07.080 any Republicans say we're gonna rain in medicaid waste fraud abuse, 0:10:07.320 --> 0:10:09.560 they're gonna come take the money out of the mouths 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:13.600 of your disabled children, and people believe them. So what 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:19.960 are you gonna do. I'm in an accepting mood today. 0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:23.000 I have accepted it, probably because I'm excited about my 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:28.400 new political party party. The F y'all it cans. You 0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:28.920 gotta have. 0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:32.880 AI design a logo, because that's a good I like 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:38.240 the capital F capital y apostrophe, a L L. 0:10:40.240 --> 0:10:46.520 Dash I dash cans F y'all it cans. We need 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:50.640 an animal, though, maybe the turkey is the donkey and 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:54.840 the elephant, or taken clearly, maybe we have the Turkey 0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:55.880 has heard in a. 0:10:55.840 --> 0:10:59.320 Previous clip which Ben Franklin wanted to be our national bird. 0:11:00.040 --> 0:11:02.720 So enough politics. I've got a couple of stories about business, 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:06.000 about you know, personal wealth, that sort of thing. Number one, 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:10.280 so you're a crypto zillionaire, I'd start carrying a gun, 0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:15.240 hiding a guard and keeping your fingers hidden. Secondly, pipes, 0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:20.120 who's making the real money? What's the way to wealth? 0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:26.280 Become one of the stealthy wealthy the stealthy wealthy. It's 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:29.719 doable and better yet it rhymes. 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:33.320 Also, I watched the Minecraft movie with Henry over the weekend. 0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:35.680 I want to talk, Yeah, I want to talk about 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:37.600 a couple of notable things that I think might be 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:43.280 the future of motion pictures. Jack Black is so fat 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:47.680 and greasy and doesn't care. That's what's interesting about him. 0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:50.960 He's got to be one of the biggest movie stars 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:54.680 in the world, very very big in terms. 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:57.280 Of making moneyms to be unbathed. He does not. 0:11:57.400 --> 0:12:01.040 Care at all. I think he shows up to he 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:04.120 doesn't care how he looks at all. Didn't comb his hair, 0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:06.600 he doesn't find a shirt that fits, he doesn't wash 0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:12.199 his face. Yeah, it's weird anyway, more on that Later's 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:24.960 there the Minecraft movie. Over the weekend with my son 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:26.560 Henry and I was about to talk about it, and 0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:28.480 I thought I should look up a little of how 0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:32.480 successful this movie was to back up my premise, and 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:35.439 I googled it first. Then I remembered what you keep saying, No, 0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:37.440 you got to use the chat gptwo, I'm trying to 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:38.320 get out of the habit. 0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:39.600 Of googling and go to chat gpt. 0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:43.000 The answer I got on chat GPT about I just 0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:47.040 asked chat gpt, was the Minecraft movie a financial success? 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:51.760 It's answer so much better and thorough than googling it, 0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:54.240 I mean, not even close. So I got to get 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:57.199 out of the habit of googling. Anyway, a Minecraft movie 0:12:57.200 --> 0:13:01.240 has made almost a billion dollars worldwide after a budget 0:13:01.280 --> 0:13:04.960 to make it of only one hundred and fifty million dollars, 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:10.960 which I gotta believe all of the filming of the 0:13:11.000 --> 0:13:14.120 acting of that movie could have been done in an 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:18.000 afternoon probably. I mean, there wasn't much to it, and 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:19.959 it was all so much was green screen. It was 0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:22.559 all CGI stuff and everything like that. And like I mentioned, 0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:25.360 Jack Black, what an interesting dude. I don't know, is 0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:27.560 he married or not. I've seen him in various interviews. 0:13:27.960 --> 0:13:32.319 He's certainly not trying to impress chicks. He wears ill 0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:34.679 fitting clothes, he doesn't wash his face or coma's hair. 0:13:34.760 --> 0:13:38.560 He rolls in, does his lines brilliantly because he's really good, 0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:41.680 and then collects his money and goes home. What an 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:46.000 interesting thing that is? What movie star has never wanted 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:50.360 to care how they look? Like Jack Black, he keeps 0:13:50.360 --> 0:13:55.040 getting fatter and greasier anyway. I mean, you canna be 0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:56.559 fat if you want. Maybe you think that's part of 0:13:56.600 --> 0:14:02.000 your appeal. You can wash your face AnyWho. The Minecraft movie, 0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:04.280 first of all, way better than I expected it to be. 0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:04.719 I thought it was. 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:07.720 It was only an hour forty five, but I thought, uh, 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:09.079 I thought this is gonna be kind of tough to 0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:11.520 sit through. And it was quite entertaining, pretty dang funny 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:14.320 by the end it had it reminded me of like 0:14:14.360 --> 0:14:17.679 all your Lord of the Rings movies. Okay, another giant 0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:20.600 fight sequence. I just I can't do fight sequences like 0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:23.640 a lot of people can, apparently endlessly. I get it. 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:28.360 But my main takeaway was, and if I was rich, 0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:31.000 I would start for like really like Elon Rich I 0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:35.560 would come up with this idea today. It was basically 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:43.040 a series of popular memes that young people get strung 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:46.920 together so that everybody could laugh together about Hey, I 0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:52.240 get this meme and feel part of something. That's what 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:56.000 it seemed like to me. And I'll bet you could 0:14:56.040 --> 0:14:59.000 put one of those out once a month of just 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.920 whatever the most re hot memes were, right, make it 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:05.560 like ninety minutes long. It's just a series of meme 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:09.080 jokes that every teenager gets and things so the hilarious 0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:12.280 and it would be super popular because that's basically what 0:15:12.320 --> 0:15:13.440 the Minecraft movie was. 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:17.440 So just a recognition slash belonging fest. 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:22.920 Yeah, because other things aren't really working, but partially because 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:24.840 this is a reason to be together in the theater. 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:28.480 Is fun to recognize the memes together. It was clear 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:30.360 from my older son when he went and saw it 0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:32.040 in the theater that that was a lot of the 0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:35.520 appeal was all these inside jokes that they get and 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:37.600 laugh at, and it's fun to see him in a group. 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:39.880 I think this is a way to rescue movies. It's 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:42.840 gonna kill old time movies. But like just I don't know, 0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:45.040 the most popular memes put together ninety minutes with a 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:45.640 loose script. 0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:47.800 I think that would right. Somebody steal that idea and 0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:50.840 make it work. Well, it's either like irony or a 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:56.360 perpetual motion machine or something that online memes. The enjoyment 0:15:56.400 --> 0:16:01.800 of online memes together Yeah, in a room might convince kids, 0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:04.280 hey this is really fun. Wow, good point. 0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:07.000 Hello, But Mike constantly, my son was saying, I know 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:11.360 you don't get that, but to various things that were happening, 0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:14.920 characters and lines and stuff like that, because they're here today. 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:16.200 I mean, you could have had a movie where the 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:20.160 Hawktua girl was, you know, a co star there for 0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:23.640 a couple of coffee. Oh please don't, but you're and 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:26.120 people would have go fought with laughter though you know 0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:27.360 they mean them studios. 0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:32.080 Yes, oh yes, now you gotta start producing these. This 0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:34.400 is your ten million dollar idea. It's fine. I thought, 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:36.320 I'll get another co host. I thought of Friday Night. 0:16:36.360 --> 0:16:38.360 I thought, this is actual brilliant idea. It would just 0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:39.560 take a lot of money to get a going. 0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:43.640 You know, you'd have to pay for rights, but you'd 0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:47.080 have lawyers to do that. That'd be easy. Uh yeah, wow, 0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:51.440 that's a great idea. Just your monthly meme cinema. 0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:54.280 Yeah yeah, and all the teenagers get together and feel 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:55.880 cooler and smarter than the rest. 0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:58.680 Of us because they get all the jokes right. Yeah. 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:02.920 We bought it though, cost twenty bucks. So minecraft's available 0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:04.560 at home now for streaming, but it was twenty bucks 0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:05.000 to in it. 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.919 I think it's got about a six month run. Your idea, 0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:12.960 Oh really, don't like. Don't invest too heavily thinking next 0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:18.160 year will be even bigger. Trust me, Armstrong and getty. 0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:22.760 Person in charge of CBS News just step down. So 0:17:22.840 --> 0:17:25.640 first it was the producer of sixty Minutes a couple 0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:29.119 of weeks ago, and now the leader of CBS News 0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:31.800 saying it's become clear that the company I do not 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:33.640 agree on the path forward. 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:36.479 You know there's some stuff from sixty Minutes we were 0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:37.760 hoping to squeeze in today. 0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:40.960 We got to talk about tomorrow better now, Yes it is, Yeah, 0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:44.240 let's hold all that stuff over. Sixty Minutes feels exactly 0:17:44.280 --> 0:17:45.679 like it used to feel to me when I used 0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:46.040 to watch it. 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:48.560 When I was younger. Now, so the guy who quit 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:51.719 in a huff, the head guy, because I'm getting too 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:59.240 much corporate pressure to twist the show into being watchable again, unbelievable. 0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:01.320 That story how much which China is spying on us? 0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:01.840 Last night? 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:04.480 Man, watch it if you haven't seen it, we'll talk 0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:07.719 about it tomorrow with sixty minutes feature. China is spying 0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:09.600 on us in a way that no country has ever 0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:10.760 spied on any country ever. 0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:14.760 Probably uh yeah, yeah, absolutely true. Boy, I'm amazed. I'm 0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:18.440 working with chat GPT to try to create I gotta 0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:21.560 go to the paid version. I'm trying to create a 0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:27.480 logo for the f Yolikin Party because f y'all, not 0:18:27.640 --> 0:18:32.119 you good people, but just politicians and here's friends. I 0:18:32.200 --> 0:18:34.360 know what you're talking about in some of the texts. 0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:40.320 So I said, design me a logo for the political 0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.720 for a political party called the f Yolikin Party. Our 0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:45.919 mascot is a bald eagle. The logo should use red, 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:49.080 white and blue, and it says I can generate a 0:18:49.119 --> 0:18:51.640 logo for the f Yolikin Party featuring a bald eagle 0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:53.639 in red, white and blue color scheme. Before I do, 0:18:53.760 --> 0:18:56.400 could you clarify the tone you're aiming for, for example, 0:18:56.760 --> 0:19:01.400 serious and patriotic like a traditional political logo, satirical or humorous, 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:04.560 leaning into the edgy name bold and rebellious in a 0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:08.640 punk American rebel style, picked up on the edgy name. Yeah, 0:19:08.680 --> 0:19:12.440 I know, I'm a little troubling. It's been a little 0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:14.480 frustrating to get it to do what I want it 0:19:14.560 --> 0:19:16.640 to do. In some ways that are funny. I keep 0:19:16.640 --> 0:19:19.600 telling it to have the effing eagle face to the right, 0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:23.320 and it keeps having it face left. But other than that, 0:19:23.359 --> 0:19:24.640 it's it's amazing. 0:19:24.400 --> 0:19:26.560 How patriotic you I want it to be? Like if 0:19:26.640 --> 0:19:29.600 Lee Greenwood ate a flag, what would come out of him? 0:19:29.720 --> 0:19:35.200 That's what I want, right exactly, So totally different topic. 0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:39.600 The screams echoed down the narrow street in a trendy 0:19:39.680 --> 0:19:42.600 neighborhood in early morning Paris. 0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:48.720 Help Help, Help Help. Three men in black masks had 0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:52.080 jumped on a thirty four year old woman and her 0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:56.320 toddler and tried to throw them into an idling white 0:19:56.440 --> 0:20:00.199 van disguised as a delivery truck. Luckily, her husband threw 0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:03.640 himself between the attackers and his family. A neighbor hustled 0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:08.240 the child away, screams yells. The husband was battered with 0:20:08.359 --> 0:20:12.280 a wrench. Bloody blah blah blah. So all because this 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:17.680 chick's father runs a French cryptocurrency exchange, and she's got 0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:20.679 a hell of a lot of it, apparently li bitcoin 0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:26.000 around the world. This Braisen attack latest in the series 0:20:26.000 --> 0:20:29.719 of violent abductions, including several in the US, targeting crypto 0:20:29.800 --> 0:20:32.840 executives and their families. Victims have been pistol whipped to 0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:37.879 abduct it and in two cases had fingers severed, actually 0:20:37.920 --> 0:20:41.240 cut off their fingers. Yes, to use their fingerprints to 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:46.800 open accounts. Wow barbaric, I would agree, fans of Retina Scam. 0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:51.040 Oh boy. The assaults are often called wrench attacks because 0:20:51.040 --> 0:20:53.879 they rely on simple tools for inflicting pain to course 0:20:53.960 --> 0:20:57.440 victims rather than sophisticated tools for hacking them. Can the 0:20:57.480 --> 0:21:01.560 guy hit me with the Wrinch's why I called it that? Yes? Yes, essentially. Yes. 0:21:02.560 --> 0:21:05.280 Hacking has long been the primary risk for the crypto rich. 0:21:05.359 --> 0:21:09.320 But to thwart hackers, savvy cryptocurrency investors have increasingly taken 0:21:09.359 --> 0:21:13.959 their digital wallets offline in favor of physical devices a 0:21:14.000 --> 0:21:18.400 thumb drive in a safe, making remote theft more difficult. 0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:22.720 But real world bash over the head crypto crime bypasses 0:21:22.800 --> 0:21:24.119 those those safeguards. 0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:28.959 Obviously, do I get the option like put your thumb 0:21:28.960 --> 0:21:31.879 on this, or we're gonna cut your thumb off, or 0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:32.960 do they just take my thumb? 0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:35.520 I think this is probably a period of negotiation, but 0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:40.320 I don't know. These concerns intensified this week with a 0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:44.639 cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase disclosing that as many as ninety seven 0:21:44.760 --> 0:21:49.920 thousand customers had their personal information stolen, including addresses and 0:21:50.000 --> 0:21:54.960 snapshots of their balance. Oh, Joe Jones of one two 0:21:55.000 --> 0:21:59.119 three Main Street has eleven million dollars in crypto. Why 0:21:59.160 --> 0:22:01.920 that's just on the other side of town. Perhaps we'll 0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:04.000 bash him in the head with a wrench, cut off 0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:12.840 his finger and take his money. Say the scumbags, Wow wow, 0:22:13.000 --> 0:22:16.440 I mean, obviously, if you're smart and savvy, you keep 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:20.240 your crazy wealth to yourself. Do you have any crypto? 0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:23.560 I do not at this point. No, I do not either. 0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:26.800 I've kicked myself for that a number of times. I 0:22:26.880 --> 0:22:30.199 have a friend who is a savvy financial guy, and 0:22:31.560 --> 0:22:34.080 a guy, for reasons of the way his marriage was 0:22:34.160 --> 0:22:38.800 set up, could do more or less whatever he wanted quickly. 0:22:39.440 --> 0:22:41.720 He didn't have the sort of setup where hey, sweetheart, 0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:44.080 I'm thinking of doing this and this for these reasons, 0:22:44.160 --> 0:22:46.240 Should we free up enough money? No? He would just 0:22:46.359 --> 0:22:49.320 do it, and he literally paid for his kids college 0:22:49.440 --> 0:22:52.880 education with crypto profits. Wow, got in and got out 0:22:52.880 --> 0:22:55.360 at the right time, because it can all of it. Yes, 0:22:56.000 --> 0:22:57.679 you can definitely go the other way. You make too 0:22:57.720 --> 0:23:01.080 much money. You got to four fingers on each hand, 0:23:01.760 --> 0:23:04.720 oh boy. In September of Florida man was sentenced to 0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:06.879 forty seven years in prison for leading a ring that 0:23:06.920 --> 0:23:10.399 carried out a string of home invasions across multiple states 0:23:10.440 --> 0:23:13.160 in search of crypto riches, and one of the attacks, 0:23:13.160 --> 0:23:15.440 the men held a pink revolver I'm not sure why 0:23:15.480 --> 0:23:18.240 the color of the revolver is important to the head 0:23:18.240 --> 0:23:20.960 of a seventy six year old Durham, North Carolina man 0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:26.879 and threatened to cut off his genitals. The victim to 0:23:27.040 --> 0:23:33.040
