1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,740
Hey Stooge, the podcast is beginning, get on

2
00:00:02,740 --> 00:00:03,300
the phone.

3
00:00:03,780 --> 00:00:05,320
Adam Curry, John C.

4
00:00:05,460 --> 00:00:05,740
DeVora.

5
00:00:06,020 --> 00:00:08,180
It's Thursday, August 28th, 2025.

6
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:10,240
This is your award-winning Kimmel Nation Media

7
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,340
Assassination episode 1794.

8
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:14,120
This is no agenda.

9
00:00:15,340 --> 00:00:17,060
Houston, we have a problem.

10
00:00:17,500 --> 00:00:19,400
And we're broadcasting live from the heart of

11
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,460
the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA region

12
00:00:21,460 --> 00:00:22,200
number six.

13
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,480
In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry.

14
00:00:24,860 --> 00:00:26,840
I am from northern Silicon Valley where we're

15
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,240
all wondering why don't they talk to the

16
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,860
trans shooter's mother?

17
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:32,640
I'm John C.

18
00:00:32,740 --> 00:00:33,180
DeVorak.

19
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,200
Well obviously that would break the imaginary wall

20
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,540
that we have a pattern here.

21
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:45,900
So we can't be doing that.

22
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,660
There'll be no talking to family members.

23
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,020
You know in that in the 11 minute

24
00:00:51,020 --> 00:00:52,740
video that he did where he shows all

25
00:00:52,740 --> 00:00:53,740
his clips.

26
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:54,360
Yes.

27
00:00:54,900 --> 00:00:55,960
Big gun clips.

28
00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:01,300
He shows the four letter, I'm sorry, the

29
00:01:01,300 --> 00:01:03,459
four page note to his parents and his

30
00:01:03,459 --> 00:01:04,239
apology letter.

31
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,520
And in there he mentions everybody in the

32
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:07,840
family.

33
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:08,940
He's got all the names.

34
00:01:09,140 --> 00:01:09,320
Yeah.

35
00:01:09,540 --> 00:01:10,740
He's got brothers and sisters.

36
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,140
He talks about how his sister is estranged

37
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:15,080
from his mother and won't talk to her

38
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,820
and he'd like them to get back together.

39
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,380
And it just seems to me, and this

40
00:01:20,380 --> 00:01:23,240
also holds true for that Crooks character, the

41
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,760
guy who took a shot at President Trump.

42
00:01:28,820 --> 00:01:32,520
Why hasn't the media, who doesn't, I've seen

43
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,540
it, they don't mind doing this, ambushing people,

44
00:01:35,660 --> 00:01:37,440
you know, coming up from behind, really getting

45
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,000
in their car and yelling at them.

46
00:01:39,780 --> 00:01:41,420
They do it in the halls of Congress.

47
00:01:41,500 --> 00:01:42,100
They do it everywhere.

48
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,580
But why haven't we seen these parents?

49
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,280
I want to see Crooks parents.

50
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:47,840
I want to see somebody talking to him.

51
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,980
I want to see this guy's mom who

52
00:01:49,980 --> 00:01:53,880
transed him when he was a minor, went

53
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,280
to court and changed his name.

54
00:01:56,380 --> 00:01:57,280
She was responsible.

55
00:01:57,820 --> 00:01:59,020
I want to see these people.

56
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,300
I want to see them interviewed.

57
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,540
And why are we protecting them?

58
00:02:03,820 --> 00:02:05,440
They're the ones that are at fault.

59
00:02:06,060 --> 00:02:08,720
Are you somehow confused with the news media

60
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,640
being around to inform you?

61
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,600
Because that's not what they're for.

62
00:02:12,740 --> 00:02:15,480
They are here to protect the system.

63
00:02:15,970 --> 00:02:19,160
And the system is showing us patterns, two

64
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:19,660
patterns.

65
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,240
One, for the first time that I can

66
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,740
recall, the video stayed up and the so

67
00:02:26,740 --> 00:02:28,920
-called manifesto is everywhere.

68
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,820
This is a break in the pattern.

69
00:02:31,820 --> 00:02:33,520
But there were two videos.

70
00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:35,960
But I'm saying it's a break in the

71
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:36,320
pattern.

72
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:39,140
This is different.

73
00:02:39,660 --> 00:02:42,880
Well, I'm not convinced of this because what

74
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,880
I'm seeing was, I think people down, somebody

75
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,840
got there quicker to the draw and they

76
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,400
grabbed those videos and they've been repurposing them

77
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:52,940
because they have been taken down from the

78
00:02:52,940 --> 00:02:53,760
original source.

79
00:02:53,940 --> 00:02:56,520
I'm just saying it's a change in the

80
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:56,900
pattern.

81
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,140
And the other pattern we have now, five

82
00:03:00,140 --> 00:03:01,740
in the pattern.

83
00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:10,120
Aberdeen, Maryland, Snochia Mosley, identified as transgender male.

84
00:03:11,460 --> 00:03:12,800
That was 2018.

85
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,860
May 2019, Denver, Colorado, Alec McKinney and Devin

86
00:03:16,860 --> 00:03:20,080
Erickson-McKinney, trans, school shooting.

87
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:25,500
Of course, 2022, Colorado Springs, Club Q nightclub,

88
00:03:25,980 --> 00:03:26,740
non-binary.

89
00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:31,660
And 2023, Nashville, Tennessee, Covenant School.

90
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,460
This is the fifth in a pattern.

91
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,260
And I think it's more than, is there,

92
00:03:36,580 --> 00:03:37,640
I thought there were six.

93
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,440
I may be forgetting one, but that's what

94
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:42,960
I could remember off the top of my

95
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:43,140
head.

96
00:03:43,220 --> 00:03:46,180
So this is now a pattern and we

97
00:03:46,180 --> 00:03:47,720
need to just admit it.

98
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:55,080
And what has happened is we, the whole,

99
00:03:55,700 --> 00:03:57,760
I'm glad, actually, I have to say, I'm

100
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,340
glad that this shooter was transgender so we

101
00:04:01,340 --> 00:04:03,700
can get back to the conversation because we've

102
00:04:03,700 --> 00:04:10,540
been desensitized about transgendering children, basically just to

103
00:04:10,540 --> 00:04:13,760
relegate it to conversations about school sports and

104
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:14,380
bathrooms.

105
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,940
Now we can get back to the real

106
00:04:16,940 --> 00:04:17,779
conversation.

107
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,580
You commit demonic acts on your children, you

108
00:04:22,580 --> 00:04:24,420
should expect demonic results.

109
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,620
Add a little bit of 4chan, X, Mastodon,

110
00:04:28,820 --> 00:04:30,400
Discord servers to the mix.

111
00:04:30,660 --> 00:04:31,440
It was all there.

112
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,500
This was like looking at a timeline on

113
00:04:34,500 --> 00:04:35,720
a social media website.

114
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,320
Kill Trump, Skibidi, where's your God now?

115
00:04:38,460 --> 00:04:41,580
Kill Spicks, nigger, kill Jews, Israel must fall.

116
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:42,820
Come on.

117
00:04:43,780 --> 00:04:49,560
Even this kid wrote, like, I'm tired of

118
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:50,200
being trans.

119
00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:52,100
I wish I'd never brainwashed myself.

120
00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:54,380
I don't think it was you, kid.

121
00:04:56,810 --> 00:04:59,190
And, you know, you want to hear, because

122
00:04:59,190 --> 00:05:00,790
everyone's talking about that video.

123
00:05:01,510 --> 00:05:02,490
Holy crap.

124
00:05:02,590 --> 00:05:04,210
Just, you want to talk demonic?

125
00:05:04,790 --> 00:05:05,690
What is this?

126
00:05:17,250 --> 00:05:19,470
That was pretty bad.

127
00:05:20,490 --> 00:05:22,930
Dude, that is a demon.

128
00:05:24,830 --> 00:05:28,290
And no wonder these people go after church

129
00:05:28,290 --> 00:05:29,470
and believers.

130
00:05:29,470 --> 00:05:31,430
That's what demons want to do.

131
00:05:32,430 --> 00:05:33,510
Simple conclusion.

132
00:05:33,730 --> 00:05:35,370
We don't have a gun problem, a political

133
00:05:35,370 --> 00:05:36,790
problem, or bigotry problem.

134
00:05:36,870 --> 00:05:38,910
We have a spiritual problem in our country.

135
00:05:39,210 --> 00:05:40,990
And we have to open up the conversation

136
00:05:40,990 --> 00:05:42,790
about transgendering our children.

137
00:05:43,490 --> 00:05:45,510
This nonsense has to stop.

138
00:05:47,170 --> 00:05:48,170
It has to stop.

139
00:05:48,610 --> 00:05:49,530
It's out of control.

140
00:05:51,270 --> 00:05:53,910
And yes, with that, let's interview some parents.

141
00:05:54,050 --> 00:05:55,270
Let's interview some doctors.

142
00:05:55,810 --> 00:05:57,110
Let's really get into it.

143
00:05:57,870 --> 00:05:59,110
It's just crazy.

144
00:05:59,110 --> 00:06:03,530
Luckily, Fox & Friends this morning had RFK

145
00:06:03,530 --> 00:06:04,090
Jr. on.

146
00:06:04,370 --> 00:06:07,450
They asked another important question, which I think

147
00:06:07,450 --> 00:06:10,590
RFK Jr. answered quite poorly.

148
00:06:10,970 --> 00:06:12,570
Are you going to be examining at all

149
00:06:12,570 --> 00:06:14,630
some of the drugs that are used in

150
00:06:14,630 --> 00:06:17,410
order to make that transition happening to see

151
00:06:17,410 --> 00:06:18,250
if it plays a role?

152
00:06:18,510 --> 00:06:20,090
Because we also know there was a trans

153
00:06:20,090 --> 00:06:22,170
shooter in the Tennessee situation.

154
00:06:23,750 --> 00:06:26,890
We are doing those kind of studies now

155
00:06:26,890 --> 00:06:28,190
at NIH.

156
00:06:28,190 --> 00:06:36,850
We're launching studies on the potential contribution of

157
00:06:36,850 --> 00:06:39,310
some of the SSRI drugs and some of

158
00:06:39,310 --> 00:06:45,730
the other psychiatric drugs that might be contributing

159
00:06:45,730 --> 00:06:46,610
to violence.

160
00:06:46,750 --> 00:06:51,030
Many of them on there have black box

161
00:06:51,030 --> 00:06:56,730
warnings that warn of suicidal ideation and homicidal

162
00:06:56,730 --> 00:06:57,430
ideation.

163
00:06:57,530 --> 00:07:00,250
So we can't exclude those as a culprit

164
00:07:00,250 --> 00:07:01,970
and those are the kind of studies that

165
00:07:01,970 --> 00:07:02,550
we're doing.

166
00:07:02,910 --> 00:07:04,830
So I've never seen that medicine, but you're

167
00:07:04,830 --> 00:07:06,690
saying that if you get it, some of

168
00:07:06,690 --> 00:07:10,270
the side effects could be homicide, suicide?

169
00:07:10,950 --> 00:07:14,910
Well, there are black box warnings on some

170
00:07:14,910 --> 00:07:19,770
of these psychiatric drugs that warn about in

171
00:07:19,770 --> 00:07:22,210
their clinical trials that they saw a suicidal

172
00:07:22,210 --> 00:07:23,970
and a homicidal ideation.

173
00:07:24,590 --> 00:07:27,550
So, you know, we are going into that

174
00:07:27,550 --> 00:07:28,730
with an open mind.

175
00:07:28,950 --> 00:07:30,650
Bobby, the answer is yes.

176
00:07:30,970 --> 00:07:31,950
The answer was yes.

177
00:07:32,350 --> 00:07:33,270
Beaten around the bush.

178
00:07:33,450 --> 00:07:34,430
The answer was yes.

179
00:07:34,490 --> 00:07:35,390
That was disappointing.

180
00:07:35,730 --> 00:07:37,170
But OK, at least they had it out

181
00:07:37,170 --> 00:07:37,350
there.

182
00:07:37,410 --> 00:07:38,530
The black box warnings.

183
00:07:39,550 --> 00:07:40,530
This is not new.

184
00:07:41,010 --> 00:07:44,070
And the M5M is not talking about any

185
00:07:44,070 --> 00:07:44,630
of this.

186
00:07:44,950 --> 00:07:45,730
Any of it.

187
00:07:46,370 --> 00:07:48,850
In fact, they obfuscated the whole trans thing

188
00:07:48,850 --> 00:07:49,750
to start with.

189
00:07:50,570 --> 00:07:52,870
And then it's like, oh, it's a big

190
00:07:52,870 --> 00:07:53,610
Kash Patel.

191
00:07:53,610 --> 00:07:56,310
It's a terrorist attack on a Catholic.

192
00:07:56,470 --> 00:07:57,470
No, no.

193
00:07:57,650 --> 00:08:00,930
This is a sad, another sad case of

194
00:08:00,930 --> 00:08:04,010
a child abused by their parents who went

195
00:08:04,010 --> 00:08:07,810
along with whatever stupid mind control has been

196
00:08:07,810 --> 00:08:08,490
out there for.

197
00:08:08,690 --> 00:08:10,050
I mean, what was it?

198
00:08:10,090 --> 00:08:10,710
What's the slogan?

199
00:08:11,750 --> 00:08:13,970
I'd rather have a live daughter than a

200
00:08:13,970 --> 00:08:14,610
dead son.

201
00:08:15,070 --> 00:08:15,710
Yeah, the old one.

202
00:08:16,250 --> 00:08:20,090
We don't even know if you said parents.

203
00:08:20,730 --> 00:08:24,270
We the media has given us so little

204
00:08:24,270 --> 00:08:24,870
information.

205
00:08:25,070 --> 00:08:26,830
We don't even know if there was a

206
00:08:26,830 --> 00:08:27,330
dad.

207
00:08:28,270 --> 00:08:30,150
Yeah, that's how bad it is.

208
00:08:30,230 --> 00:08:30,470
Yes.

209
00:08:31,330 --> 00:08:33,710
Now, here's the the mayor of Minneapolis.

210
00:08:34,190 --> 00:08:35,830
Also not getting to the point.

211
00:08:36,210 --> 00:08:38,190
There are no words that can capture the

212
00:08:38,190 --> 00:08:41,650
horror and the evil of this unspeakable act.

213
00:08:43,150 --> 00:08:44,610
Children are dead.

214
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,480
There are families that have a deceased child.

215
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,640
And you cannot put into words the gravity,

216
00:08:55,580 --> 00:08:58,620
the tragedy or the absolute pain of this

217
00:08:58,620 --> 00:08:59,180
situation.

218
00:08:59,500 --> 00:09:00,980
These were Minneapolis families.

219
00:09:01,380 --> 00:09:02,740
These were American families.

220
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,900
And the amount of pain that they are

221
00:09:05,900 --> 00:09:08,000
suffering right now is extraordinary.

222
00:09:10,260 --> 00:09:12,000
And don't just say this is about thoughts

223
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:12,980
and prayers right now.

224
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,640
These kids were literally praying.

225
00:09:15,500 --> 00:09:17,600
It was the first week of school.

226
00:09:17,820 --> 00:09:19,160
They were in a church.

227
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,840
They should be able to go to school

228
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,860
or church in peace without the fear or

229
00:09:24,860 --> 00:09:25,780
risk of violence.

230
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,660
And their parents should have the same kind

231
00:09:27,660 --> 00:09:28,200
of assurance.

232
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,420
This kind of act of evil should never

233
00:09:30,420 --> 00:09:30,880
happen.

234
00:09:31,540 --> 00:09:32,840
And it happens far too often.

235
00:09:33,060 --> 00:09:34,420
The only thing he got right was the

236
00:09:34,420 --> 00:09:35,000
act of evil.

237
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,680
But you know, that's going towards guns.

238
00:09:36,780 --> 00:09:38,000
They just haven't done it yet.

239
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:39,580
Oh, no, they've already done it.

240
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:40,900
No, you're they've already gone.

241
00:09:41,260 --> 00:09:43,280
The gun thing is cropped up all over

242
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:43,680
the place.

243
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:44,360
It's guns fall.

244
00:09:44,460 --> 00:09:45,420
It's not not these people.

245
00:09:45,420 --> 00:09:47,600
In fact, listen to this super very short

246
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,500
super cut trans in Minnesota.

247
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,400
This is Minnesota promoting this.

248
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:55,980
Minneapolis will continue to be a safe haven

249
00:09:55,980 --> 00:09:58,220
for our trans community.

250
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,280
For being a safe haven for transgender individuals.

251
00:10:01,460 --> 00:10:03,640
We have sued them for gender affirming care.

252
00:10:03,780 --> 00:10:05,840
Yes, we are not going to scapegoat our

253
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:06,880
transgender community.

254
00:10:07,180 --> 00:10:10,700
When our children tell us who they are,

255
00:10:10,980 --> 00:10:14,880
it is our job as grownups to listen

256
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,500
and to believe them.

257
00:10:16,940 --> 00:10:18,660
Yeah, so it's so sad.

258
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:23,260
This this child, you know, didn't even want

259
00:10:23,260 --> 00:10:23,700
this.

260
00:10:24,620 --> 00:10:26,560
Yeah, quote, I only keep my long hair

261
00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:28,280
because it's pretty much the last shred of

262
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:29,280
me being trans.

263
00:10:29,420 --> 00:10:30,640
I'm tired of being trans.

264
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,460
I wish I'd never brainwashed myself.

265
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,020
I can cut my hair.

266
00:10:35,140 --> 00:10:36,400
I can't cut my hair now as it

267
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,920
would be an embarrassing defeat.

268
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,440
And it might be a concerning change of

269
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,020
character that could get me reported.

270
00:10:42,820 --> 00:10:45,720
And by the way, a lot a lot

271
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:52,320
in in in his writings about, wow, you

272
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,900
know, all the videos I'm watching.

273
00:10:54,020 --> 00:10:55,880
I'm surprised they haven't knocked on my door

274
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:56,340
already.

275
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:58,060
Where was that?

276
00:11:00,810 --> 00:11:01,650
It's not there.

277
00:11:02,130 --> 00:11:02,690
It's a trick.

278
00:11:03,030 --> 00:11:05,250
But Minnesota is a trans.

279
00:11:05,590 --> 00:11:08,690
It's a sanctuary state for trans.

280
00:11:08,750 --> 00:11:09,950
So that's not going to he's not going

281
00:11:09,950 --> 00:11:11,110
to know what's knocking on his door.

282
00:11:11,310 --> 00:11:12,490
They're encouraging it.

283
00:11:12,490 --> 00:11:12,870
Yes.

284
00:11:14,210 --> 00:11:17,010
And I really, I really don't know any

285
00:11:17,010 --> 00:11:17,930
good stories.

286
00:11:18,470 --> 00:11:20,610
I know parents who've trans their kids.

287
00:11:21,450 --> 00:11:22,630
You know, it doesn't.

288
00:11:22,770 --> 00:11:25,450
I just don't know of any happy endings.

289
00:11:26,070 --> 00:11:27,030
I don't.

290
00:11:28,070 --> 00:11:29,110
Now, it's only my story.

291
00:11:29,330 --> 00:11:30,590
There's got to be a couple.

292
00:11:31,270 --> 00:11:33,150
Not that I've heard of.

293
00:11:33,790 --> 00:11:36,230
It's always a sad ending.

294
00:11:38,310 --> 00:11:40,790
But we can't say that in the media.

295
00:11:40,970 --> 00:11:42,110
Oh, we can't do that.

296
00:11:42,110 --> 00:11:45,210
Oh, no, that would ruin our our relationship

297
00:11:45,210 --> 00:11:47,090
with the political parties.

298
00:11:48,530 --> 00:11:50,530
And I'm waiting for President Trump to tell

299
00:11:50,530 --> 00:11:51,090
us the truth.

300
00:11:51,190 --> 00:11:51,790
Where's that?

301
00:11:51,850 --> 00:11:52,550
He should say it.

302
00:11:54,620 --> 00:11:55,980
He doesn't know how to do it either.

303
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,800
I mean, you're coming the closest.

304
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,140
Because we've seen these patterns.

305
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,060
We've seen it over and over again.

306
00:12:05,140 --> 00:12:06,560
I thought you had another trans clip.

307
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,060
I have the shooter, shooter ID, the BSA

308
00:12:10,060 --> 00:12:10,380
shoot.

309
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,140
This is a BS clip from NPR, the

310
00:12:12,140 --> 00:12:12,860
shooter clip.

311
00:12:12,860 --> 00:12:15,620
OK, so the director of the FBI, Kash

312
00:12:15,620 --> 00:12:17,800
Patel, said on X that the shooter has

313
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,500
been identified, quote.

314
00:12:19,620 --> 00:12:21,600
Oh, wait, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

315
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:22,240
There's actually two.

316
00:12:22,420 --> 00:12:23,140
I'm sorry.

317
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:24,380
I've stopped.

318
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,360
I didn't realize there's actually this.

319
00:12:26,560 --> 00:12:27,960
That should be the second part of this.

320
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:29,420
This started with Robin.

321
00:12:29,820 --> 00:12:32,240
Robin Shooter, one NPR.

322
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,160
And then we'll go to that clip.

323
00:12:34,500 --> 00:12:36,900
Once again, a community is grieving this time

324
00:12:36,900 --> 00:12:39,740
over this morning's shooting during morning mass at

325
00:12:39,740 --> 00:12:41,120
a Catholic church in Minneapolis.

326
00:12:41,750 --> 00:12:44,260
Two children, ages eight and 10, died in

327
00:12:44,260 --> 00:12:45,260
the pews where they sat.

328
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,640
17 others, 14 of them children, were wounded.

329
00:12:49,380 --> 00:12:52,760
NPR's Jason Derose reports church leaders are expressing

330
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:53,400
their sorrow.

331
00:12:53,660 --> 00:12:55,620
In a statement issued by the Vatican, Pope

332
00:12:55,620 --> 00:12:59,080
Leo is offering his, quote, heartfelt condolences and

333
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,640
the assurance of spiritual closeness to all those

334
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,740
affected, especially the families now grieving the loss

335
00:13:04,740 --> 00:13:05,400
of a child.

336
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,720
Archbishop Bernard Hebda of the St. Paul Minneapolis

337
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,700
Archdiocese issued a statement calling for the end

338
00:13:11,700 --> 00:13:14,700
to gun violence and saying, quote, our community

339
00:13:14,700 --> 00:13:17,820
is rightfully outraged at such horrific acts of

340
00:13:17,820 --> 00:13:20,960
violence perpetuated against the vulnerable and innocent.

341
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,220
Archdiocese staff are working with Annunciation Catholic School

342
00:13:25,220 --> 00:13:27,660
to make sure families there have the resources

343
00:13:27,660 --> 00:13:28,220
they need.

344
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,940
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara says the

345
00:13:30,940 --> 00:13:34,020
guns used in the shootings were purchased recently

346
00:13:34,020 --> 00:13:36,620
and legally by the suspect who died of

347
00:13:36,620 --> 00:13:38,280
a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

348
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,300
Yeah, which in his video, he said he

349
00:13:40,300 --> 00:13:41,980
was going to use the pistol he had.

350
00:13:42,740 --> 00:13:46,140
You know, they had, they constantly go on

351
00:13:46,140 --> 00:13:48,840
NPR about how this is, the guns were

352
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:49,720
purchased legally.

353
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,280
Nobody explains how he had all the money.

354
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:52,320
These were not expensive.

355
00:13:52,380 --> 00:13:53,580
They've been very expensive.

356
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:54,780
A lot of gear there.

357
00:13:55,380 --> 00:13:55,900
A lot of gear.

358
00:13:56,780 --> 00:13:57,220
Yeah.

359
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,200
And they go on and on about, they're

360
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,200
trying to push the gun narrative as best

361
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:02,560
they can.

362
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:05,300
But one of the trans killers over the

363
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:09,040
six or seven that have been already come

364
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,420
and gone, one of them was a trans

365
00:14:12,420 --> 00:14:16,320
female, guy turned woman, all tatted up, who

366
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,660
went into, I think it was the seven

367
00:14:17,660 --> 00:14:20,880
and 11 with a hatchet and started hatcheting

368
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,480
people to death and killed two or three

369
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,080
people with a hatchet.

370
00:14:24,180 --> 00:14:26,040
Yeah, we know knives are just as deadly.

371
00:14:26,260 --> 00:14:27,320
We see, look in the UK.

372
00:14:27,580 --> 00:14:28,620
What about bombs?

373
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:30,780
You know, these kids, they can't get a

374
00:14:30,780 --> 00:14:31,000
gun.

375
00:14:31,220 --> 00:14:32,340
They say you can't get a gun.

376
00:14:32,340 --> 00:14:34,100
You blow up the place.

377
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,360
You're going to kill a lot more people

378
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:36,920
that way or poison.

379
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:38,820
I mean, there's a lot of ways if

380
00:14:38,820 --> 00:14:41,900
you're a homicidal maniac to kill people.

381
00:14:43,740 --> 00:14:45,620
Anyway, here's part two of this where they

382
00:14:45,620 --> 00:14:46,880
kind of go, this is later.

383
00:14:46,980 --> 00:14:48,140
This is a very long report.

384
00:14:48,220 --> 00:14:48,880
It's boring.

385
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,340
But I thought this little clip, this little

386
00:14:52,340 --> 00:14:53,680
sub clip was pretty good.

387
00:14:54,060 --> 00:14:56,140
So the director of the FBI, Kash Patel,

388
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,100
said on X that the shooter has been

389
00:14:58,100 --> 00:15:01,280
identified, quote, the shooter has been identified as

390
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,660
Robin Westman, a male born as Robert Westman.

391
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,960
In 2020, Westman's mother applied to change the

392
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,500
name of her 17-year-old child from

393
00:15:11,500 --> 00:15:12,660
Robert to Robin.

394
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,480
In court documents obtained by NPR, the mother,

395
00:15:16,980 --> 00:15:21,120
Mary Grace Westman, wrote, minor child identifies as

396
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,260
female and wants her name to reflect that

397
00:15:23,260 --> 00:15:23,860
identification.

398
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,860
However, we do not know how the person

399
00:15:26,860 --> 00:15:30,240
currently identified but the suicide note was signed

400
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:30,800
as Robin.

401
00:15:31,820 --> 00:15:34,120
And they can't even get the words out.

402
00:15:36,220 --> 00:15:39,060
They don't know how he, she identified, but

403
00:15:39,060 --> 00:15:40,140
they signed it as Robin.

404
00:15:40,260 --> 00:15:42,400
That means they kind of identified as Robin

405
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:42,940
still.

406
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:43,460
Yes.

407
00:15:43,940 --> 00:15:46,520
So, I mean, this kind of reporting is

408
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:46,980
terrible.

409
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,600
And again, you know, they could go through

410
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,840
the trouble of digging up some court document,

411
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,600
which does take some work generally, unless it's

412
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,480
online, which is possible in Minnesota.

413
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,020
But let's say whether it is or isn't,

414
00:15:59,060 --> 00:15:59,820
it still takes some work.

415
00:15:59,900 --> 00:16:03,340
They can't track down the mom and just

416
00:16:03,340 --> 00:16:05,620
ask her a few questions or even show

417
00:16:05,620 --> 00:16:07,320
that she won't open the door, which they

418
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:07,840
used to do.

419
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:08,720
They used to do knocking.

420
00:16:08,860 --> 00:16:09,020
Yeah.

421
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,240
I'm not talking to anybody, you know, that

422
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:12,680
kind of thing.

423
00:16:12,700 --> 00:16:13,600
They won't even do that.

424
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,900
With this reporting, the mainstream media is so

425
00:16:16,900 --> 00:16:17,640
piss poor.

426
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:18,760
It's an embarrassment.

427
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,060
It's not piss poor.

428
00:16:20,180 --> 00:16:21,040
It's by design.

429
00:16:21,140 --> 00:16:22,320
They don't want to do it.

430
00:16:22,820 --> 00:16:23,880
They don't want to do it.

431
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,280
They're told not to do it.

432
00:16:27,900 --> 00:16:30,200
Everything starts to fall apart when you lift

433
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:31,980
up the layers of what's going on here.

434
00:16:32,740 --> 00:16:36,760
Children who want to be trans are either

435
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,720
psyoped by their parents, who have bought into

436
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:49,800
an unbelievable psychological operation, the pharmaceutical, the medical

437
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,040
-industrial complex.

438
00:16:51,140 --> 00:16:53,240
This just came out from the BMJ.

439
00:16:54,340 --> 00:16:58,680
They did a survey, sorry, a study, research,

440
00:16:59,220 --> 00:17:02,880
undisclosed financial conflicts of interest in DSM-5.

441
00:17:03,540 --> 00:17:08,640
That is the actual medical Bible that determines

442
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:14,660
what is a psychological problem and how it

443
00:17:14,660 --> 00:17:16,720
should be diagnosed and how it should be

444
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:17,060
treated.

445
00:17:18,339 --> 00:17:20,940
And because 92 physicians based in the U

446
00:17:20,940 --> 00:17:23,119
.S. who served as members of either panel,

447
00:17:23,300 --> 00:17:26,420
and is 86, or task force on the

448
00:17:26,420 --> 00:17:28,780
DSM-5 with information recording the Centers for

449
00:17:28,780 --> 00:17:31,740
Medicare and Medical Services Open Payments Database, this

450
00:17:31,740 --> 00:17:34,960
period was chosen, 2016 and 2019, to include

451
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,700
the year that development of the DSM-5

452
00:17:37,700 --> 00:17:39,820
began and three years preceding.

453
00:17:39,820 --> 00:17:40,400
The results.

454
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,280
After duplicate names had been removed, 168 individuals

455
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,540
were identified who served as either panel or

456
00:17:46,540 --> 00:17:48,960
task force members of the DSM-5 met

457
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:50,880
the inclusion criteria of being a physician who

458
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,220
was based in the U.S., therefore could

459
00:17:52,220 --> 00:17:54,360
be included in the open payments of these

460
00:17:54,360 --> 00:17:58,640
92 individuals, 60 percent, that's 55, received payments

461
00:17:58,640 --> 00:17:59,720
from industry.

462
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:05,000
More than 60 percent, more than half, received

463
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,300
payments from industry.

464
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,780
This is the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of

465
00:18:09,780 --> 00:18:15,620
Mental Disorders of which gender dysphoria is one

466
00:18:15,620 --> 00:18:16,020
of them.

467
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,780
So they're just like, well, you know, we

468
00:18:18,780 --> 00:18:20,980
got some drugs, we got some procedures.

469
00:18:21,900 --> 00:18:26,520
That's what all the plastic surgeons ran to.

470
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,840
It's, it's, we need to just face it

471
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,840
and just say, hey, this is what's been

472
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:33,480
going on.

473
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,760
Well, the Trump administration is doing something, a

474
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:36,420
little something.

475
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,340
The Trump administration is threatening to pull federal

476
00:18:39,340 --> 00:18:41,920
funding from state sex ed programs that mention

477
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,060
transgender people.

478
00:18:43,060 --> 00:18:44,800
A division of the U.S. Department of

479
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,400
Health and Human Services told 40 states, five

480
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,020
territories, and the District of Columbia in a

481
00:18:50,020 --> 00:18:52,340
letter they are now on notice and must

482
00:18:52,340 --> 00:18:55,400
remove gender ideology content from sex ed materials

483
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,940
paid through the State Personal Responsibility Education Program,

484
00:18:59,060 --> 00:18:59,580
or PREP.

485
00:18:59,960 --> 00:19:02,320
PREP's goal is to prevent pregnancy and sexually

486
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:03,640
transmitted infections.

487
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,560
The Trump administration warns that if even a

488
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,360
mere mention of gender identity or transgender people

489
00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:12,040
is found in the curriculum, the programs could

490
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,640
risk losing potentially millions of dollars.

491
00:19:14,700 --> 00:19:15,760
Now, that's a good start.

492
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,300
Stop teaching this stuff in school.

493
00:19:19,060 --> 00:19:20,760
And maybe it's time to get some of

494
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,080
these dumb books out, even though they're under

495
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:24,760
lock and key and blah, blah, blah.

496
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:25,600
Stop it.

497
00:19:26,260 --> 00:19:28,880
And parents have a huge responsibility in this.

498
00:19:29,020 --> 00:19:31,020
Did you see the, I think you got

499
00:19:31,020 --> 00:19:33,120
the email from one of our producers who

500
00:19:33,120 --> 00:19:36,300
watches a particular YouTuber with their daughter and

501
00:19:36,300 --> 00:19:38,360
she says, you know, this YouTuber does a

502
00:19:38,360 --> 00:19:40,280
lot of what you guys are doing, which

503
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,060
she doesn't, but she does touch on some

504
00:19:42,060 --> 00:19:43,180
similar topics.

505
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:44,640
Did you see it?

506
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:45,380
Did you see it?

507
00:19:45,940 --> 00:19:47,720
Well, I have two clips that I pulled

508
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:48,640
because it was really good.

509
00:19:49,060 --> 00:19:50,640
It's this British chick who sits in her

510
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,360
bedroom and just goes, it's crazy.

511
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:53,080
It's crazy.

512
00:19:53,940 --> 00:19:55,900
So I cut her out and I just

513
00:19:55,900 --> 00:19:58,040
went to the two teachers that I thought

514
00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:59,680
had something interesting to say.

515
00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:01,840
The YouTuber is Halo Haley.

516
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,620
And this is the first teacher who has

517
00:20:04,620 --> 00:20:07,360
a real problem with the presence of technology

518
00:20:07,360 --> 00:20:08,420
in her classroom.

519
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:14,960
Technology is directly contributing to the literacy decrease

520
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,440
we are seeing in this country right now.

521
00:20:16,740 --> 00:20:18,460
A lot of these kids don't know how

522
00:20:18,460 --> 00:20:20,840
to read because they have had things read

523
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,500
to them or they can click a button

524
00:20:22,500 --> 00:20:24,060
and have something read out loud to them.

525
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,400
Their attention spans are weaning because everything is

526
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:28,360
high stimulation.

527
00:20:28,700 --> 00:20:30,740
They can just scroll, watch less than a

528
00:20:30,740 --> 00:20:30,920
minute.

529
00:20:31,300 --> 00:20:33,760
They can't sit still for very long.

530
00:20:33,940 --> 00:20:35,740
Something I've realized is like, you know, on

531
00:20:35,740 --> 00:20:37,440
a day, I know when I was their

532
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:40,520
age, I thought movie days were a treat.

533
00:20:40,820 --> 00:20:41,940
I loved movie days.

534
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,040
It was a way to relax, kind of

535
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:44,660
take a break.

536
00:20:45,020 --> 00:20:47,060
And for them, what they mean when they

537
00:20:47,060 --> 00:20:49,580
say they want a movie is they want

538
00:20:49,580 --> 00:20:52,120
a movie on in the background for the

539
00:20:52,120 --> 00:20:54,380
noise while they scroll on their phones, put

540
00:20:54,380 --> 00:20:56,540
their headphones in and look at TikTok and

541
00:20:56,540 --> 00:20:58,600
maybe talk to their friends and not pay

542
00:20:58,600 --> 00:20:59,360
attention to anything.

543
00:20:59,700 --> 00:21:02,860
If I ask a child to handwrite something,

544
00:21:03,140 --> 00:21:06,700
even just a paragraph, five sentences, basic paragraph,

545
00:21:07,260 --> 00:21:08,380
they roll their eyes.

546
00:21:08,620 --> 00:21:10,180
They throw tantrums.

547
00:21:10,300 --> 00:21:11,380
I'm talking about high schoolers.

548
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:12,400
I teach 10th grade now.

549
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:13,220
High schoolers.

550
00:21:13,340 --> 00:21:16,340
They get really, really unruly.

551
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,020
And because I'm young too, they want to

552
00:21:19,020 --> 00:21:20,080
argue with me about it.

553
00:21:20,220 --> 00:21:21,220
And they want to say, why can't we

554
00:21:21,220 --> 00:21:21,720
just type it?

555
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:22,580
Why can't we just type it?

556
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,440
Well, it's because you'll go on another website

557
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:25,880
or you'll copy or use AI.

558
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:26,980
You'll use chat GPT.

559
00:21:27,220 --> 00:21:29,700
They don't care about making a difference in

560
00:21:29,700 --> 00:21:29,960
the world.

561
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,020
They don't care about how to have a

562
00:21:32,020 --> 00:21:32,300
resume.

563
00:21:32,540 --> 00:21:34,780
They don't care how to write a resume.

564
00:21:34,780 --> 00:21:36,000
They don't care how to write a cover

565
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,960
letter because chat GPT will just do it

566
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:39,440
for them.

567
00:21:39,940 --> 00:21:41,880
And I think that we need to cut

568
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:46,220
off technology from these kids probably until they

569
00:21:46,220 --> 00:21:46,880
go to college.

570
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:48,320
So, wow.

571
00:21:48,340 --> 00:21:49,220
You're banging a lot.

572
00:21:49,300 --> 00:21:49,880
What are you doing?

573
00:21:50,100 --> 00:21:51,660
You're banging around, man.

574
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:53,440
Hello?

575
00:21:53,860 --> 00:21:54,800
I had to go hang up the phone.

576
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:55,160
Oh, okay.

577
00:21:57,020 --> 00:22:00,540
She's mixing up the word technology with the

578
00:22:00,540 --> 00:22:02,520
word cell phone.

579
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:03,760
Yes.

580
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:05,840
Well, I think they also have a lot

581
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,380
of Chromebooks in school.

582
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,940
Well, they might have some computers of some

583
00:22:09,940 --> 00:22:10,240
sort.

584
00:22:10,420 --> 00:22:13,940
But what she's really talking about is the

585
00:22:13,940 --> 00:22:19,320
smartphone invented and promoted ever since 2007.

586
00:22:19,580 --> 00:22:21,280
They used to have them before, but 2007

587
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,140
is the beginning of the end.

588
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,040
You can mark that date.

589
00:22:25,780 --> 00:22:27,180
The second one is shorter.

590
00:22:27,360 --> 00:22:28,940
This is one to add to our list

591
00:22:28,940 --> 00:22:32,320
of can't tell time on an analog clock,

592
00:22:32,420 --> 00:22:33,680
can't give change.

593
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,000
Doesn't know what FL ounces mean.

594
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:37,340
You can't read clock.

595
00:22:37,780 --> 00:22:39,020
Yeah, can't read clock.

596
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:39,460
Okay.

597
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,140
Florida ounces doesn't know what half a dozen

598
00:22:43,140 --> 00:22:43,540
is.

599
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:44,800
This is a music teacher now.

600
00:22:44,900 --> 00:22:45,980
This is a music teacher.

601
00:22:46,260 --> 00:22:48,340
I teach music lessons, and I'm a little

602
00:22:48,340 --> 00:22:51,740
bit concerned about my younger students, my Gen

603
00:22:51,740 --> 00:22:52,460
Alpha students.

604
00:22:52,460 --> 00:22:54,960
I would say under 10, maybe 12.

605
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:56,220
So, here's an example.

606
00:22:56,360 --> 00:22:57,760
I had a student a while back.

607
00:22:57,820 --> 00:22:59,360
I was doing a vocal warm up with

608
00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:01,940
them, and they're probably about nine or 10

609
00:23:01,940 --> 00:23:02,460
years old.

610
00:23:02,460 --> 00:23:04,920
And I was going to teach them an

611
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,600
exercise that involves the months of the year

612
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:08,120
in order.

613
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,060
So, when I started to teach them this

614
00:23:10,060 --> 00:23:13,860
exercise, they go, oh, I don't know the

615
00:23:13,860 --> 00:23:14,440
months.

616
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:16,260
I don't know the months in order.

617
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,580
And I was like, oh, well, maybe nine

618
00:23:20,580 --> 00:23:22,240
and 10 year olds, fourth and fifth graders,

619
00:23:22,360 --> 00:23:23,680
don't know the months.

620
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,300
I was thinking back to when I was

621
00:23:25,300 --> 00:23:27,940
in first grade, and my teacher had each

622
00:23:27,940 --> 00:23:30,060
of the calendar months in a row in

623
00:23:30,060 --> 00:23:31,520
order with all of our birthdays.

624
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,360
I definitely learned the months when I was

625
00:23:33,360 --> 00:23:34,140
six.

626
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,080
Yeah, can't, don't know the months in order.

627
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:38,820
Wow, that's another one to add to the

628
00:23:38,820 --> 00:23:39,180
list.

629
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:39,640
Yes.

630
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:41,180
It's pathetic.

631
00:23:41,180 --> 00:23:42,140
That's pathetic.

632
00:23:42,820 --> 00:23:45,260
Now, I think there's good news because I've

633
00:23:45,260 --> 00:23:48,920
seen some subtle and not so subtle shifts

634
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,240
in our very own audience.

635
00:23:50,900 --> 00:23:55,340
The millennials are becoming very, I'm generalizing here,

636
00:23:55,420 --> 00:23:56,220
so it's not everybody.

637
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,980
The millennials are becoming somewhat nihilistic.

638
00:23:59,860 --> 00:24:02,860
And they're just like, and by the way,

639
00:24:02,900 --> 00:24:05,020
millennials, no one's coming for you.

640
00:24:05,380 --> 00:24:06,800
No one's going to come and save you.

641
00:24:07,980 --> 00:24:10,060
Now, there's Gen Z is switching.

642
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,280
And I'm seeing, I'm getting a lot of

643
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,420
emails from Gen Z, and they give me

644
00:24:16,420 --> 00:24:17,140
a lot of hope.

645
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,120
This is anonymous ranchers, Gen Z rancher myself,

646
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,200
who married a late millennial smoking hot wife.

647
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,500
I would say we, Gen Z, and I

648
00:24:26,500 --> 00:24:28,980
would rope in late millennials, saw what the

649
00:24:28,980 --> 00:24:30,000
millennials screwed up.

650
00:24:30,580 --> 00:24:32,800
We look further back to how our parents

651
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,820
raised us before books not recommending spanking.

652
00:24:36,120 --> 00:24:37,480
We're back to spanking.

653
00:24:39,660 --> 00:24:42,120
We're back to, a lot of it started

654
00:24:42,120 --> 00:24:42,860
with that.

655
00:24:42,940 --> 00:24:44,560
When you think about it, when we stopped

656
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,260
spanking our kids, we're back to trying to

657
00:24:47,260 --> 00:24:49,320
have bigger families staying together as a married

658
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:49,720
couple.

659
00:24:49,900 --> 00:24:52,080
The generation before, are you still laughing over

660
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:52,320
that?

661
00:24:52,660 --> 00:24:53,680
Yeah, it's very funny.

662
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,860
The generation before us showed us that giving

663
00:24:55,860 --> 00:24:58,220
your children iPads early on was a horrible

664
00:24:58,220 --> 00:24:58,760
idea.

665
00:24:59,380 --> 00:25:01,960
Gen Z is also the generation where cursive

666
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,660
stopped being taught and schools generally starting teaching

667
00:25:04,660 --> 00:25:05,840
less relevant subjects.

668
00:25:06,660 --> 00:25:08,380
We had a high school math teacher stop

669
00:25:08,380 --> 00:25:10,220
class for a period and explain to us

670
00:25:10,220 --> 00:25:12,700
how credit card companies screw you over with

671
00:25:12,700 --> 00:25:13,600
high interest rates.

672
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,860
I use that day more than the rest

673
00:25:15,860 --> 00:25:18,280
of that Algebra 1 class altogether.

674
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,920
On the whole, I would say Gen Z

675
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,980
and the following generations are doubted by the

676
00:25:23,980 --> 00:25:26,460
older generations, just like generations before them into

677
00:25:26,460 --> 00:25:29,100
history, generally the same struggles, just new and

678
00:25:29,100 --> 00:25:29,780
more vices.

679
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,240
I'm here to say, Gen Z, your boomer

680
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,480
buddies are here for you.

681
00:25:36,060 --> 00:25:38,160
We will teach you the things that went

682
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:38,560
wrong.

683
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:39,920
We have been there.

684
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,220
We know you're in the right place.

685
00:25:42,300 --> 00:25:44,740
You're at the right show to learn a

686
00:25:44,740 --> 00:25:45,320
few things.

687
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,300
I have you're still everybody's at the right

688
00:25:48,300 --> 00:25:48,760
show.

689
00:25:48,900 --> 00:25:50,040
You're still chuckling.

690
00:25:51,120 --> 00:25:52,320
You're still laughing.

691
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,600
You know, Anne Marie Barton shows me that,

692
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,800
oh, there's a welding program at our high

693
00:25:58,800 --> 00:25:59,740
school in Philadelphia.

694
00:25:59,940 --> 00:26:01,440
There's good things happening.

695
00:26:02,140 --> 00:26:04,320
But millennials and anyone else, for that matter,

696
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,020
no one's coming to save you, not the

697
00:26:06,020 --> 00:26:09,760
government, not your parents, not your podcasters.

698
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:11,300
No one's coming to save you.

699
00:26:12,420 --> 00:26:14,480
Make your own choices and decisions.

700
00:26:15,660 --> 00:26:16,580
But I'm happy.

701
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:17,700
I love this shift.

702
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:18,760
I love the shift.

703
00:26:18,980 --> 00:26:21,200
I love the the young people coming in

704
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,300
to listen to to the to their uncles.

705
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:26,200
I can handle it now.

706
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,720
I'll just be a boomer if it helps

707
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:27,960
them.

708
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:28,980
I'll be the boomer.

709
00:26:29,340 --> 00:26:30,780
I'll be the boomer.

710
00:26:30,820 --> 00:26:32,400
We got a letter from one of our

711
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,280
contributors today saying that you're really not a

712
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:36,780
boomer.

713
00:26:37,820 --> 00:26:40,000
Now, Generation Jones, I think, is what they

714
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:40,480
call it.

715
00:26:41,900 --> 00:26:42,820
Yeah, whatever.

716
00:26:42,820 --> 00:26:43,940
I'll just look.

717
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:45,900
I'm the face of Gen Z in a

718
00:26:45,900 --> 00:26:46,560
boomer body.

719
00:26:46,700 --> 00:26:47,360
What can I tell you?

720
00:26:48,260 --> 00:26:50,260
There's nothing nothing I could I stop fighting

721
00:26:50,260 --> 00:26:53,040
that people you can be 20 and people

722
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:54,180
will call you a boomer.

723
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:55,620
That's just the way it is.

724
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:56,540
It's just a slur.

725
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,160
It was just a slur.

726
00:26:58,500 --> 00:26:59,400
Yeah, it's just a slur.

727
00:26:59,900 --> 00:27:00,700
It's a slur.

728
00:27:00,740 --> 00:27:01,600
It's a slur, man.

729
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:03,060
It's about time people the B word.

730
00:27:03,380 --> 00:27:04,360
They're going to have to get to that.

731
00:27:04,580 --> 00:27:06,180
I think it's a slur.

732
00:27:06,220 --> 00:27:07,460
And if people use it, they might as

733
00:27:07,460 --> 00:27:07,720
well be.

734
00:27:08,300 --> 00:27:09,400
It's just unacceptable.

735
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:12,720
I'm an outrage.

736
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,020
I tell you, it's unacceptable.

737
00:27:14,300 --> 00:27:15,460
You can't be a boomer.

738
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,420
Anyway, so we're talking about this sort of

739
00:27:18,420 --> 00:27:19,280
bull crap.

740
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,220
I do want to play these clips from

741
00:27:22,220 --> 00:27:25,020
one of the chief White House correspondent for

742
00:27:25,020 --> 00:27:25,560
CBS.

743
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,320
Yeah, this was this was quite good.

744
00:27:30,380 --> 00:27:33,640
Now, now, people who've never worked in broadcasting

745
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,920
at all, they don't realize that there are

746
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,580
there that you you don't necessarily have a

747
00:27:39,580 --> 00:27:42,980
lot of friends in the in the control

748
00:27:42,980 --> 00:27:44,540
room at all.

749
00:27:45,820 --> 00:27:47,800
You might if you go in there and

750
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,880
be nice, but very few people, especially only

751
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,640
if you show an interest for what they

752
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:53,140
do.

753
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:54,080
You got to show it.

754
00:27:54,180 --> 00:27:55,880
I did this because I truly was.

755
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,580
I always I always warmed up the camera

756
00:27:58,580 --> 00:28:00,740
guys and the lighting guy.

757
00:28:00,940 --> 00:28:01,100
Yeah.

758
00:28:01,220 --> 00:28:04,340
Oh, the lighting guy, sound guy, the lighting,

759
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:05,180
the sound guy.

760
00:28:05,180 --> 00:28:07,080
Well, I when I was a tech TV,

761
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,720
I made a fuss about that because they

762
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,560
had the sound was crap when they first

763
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:13,200
started out.

764
00:28:13,300 --> 00:28:14,700
And I found the sound guy.

765
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,940
This guy is still around.

766
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:18,260
Excuse me.

767
00:28:19,120 --> 00:28:20,080
Marshall Buick.

768
00:28:20,360 --> 00:28:21,500
And I went to him.

769
00:28:21,540 --> 00:28:22,960
I said, what was the sound?

770
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,360
We all sound like shit on this show

771
00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:28,820
because I always had a ear for trying

772
00:28:28,820 --> 00:28:30,060
to have a decent sound.

773
00:28:30,340 --> 00:28:31,100
And he says, yeah.

774
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,420
And I said, why?

775
00:28:33,420 --> 00:28:33,640
Yeah.

776
00:28:35,060 --> 00:28:35,460
Yeah.

777
00:28:35,540 --> 00:28:36,560
I said, I said, why?

778
00:28:36,700 --> 00:28:38,440
He says, we got cheap quality products.

779
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,120
He says, I can't make it sound any

780
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,000
better than it's sounding.

781
00:28:41,540 --> 00:28:42,940
He says, somebody's got to make a fuss.

782
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,000
So I made a fuss.

783
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:44,340
Yeah.

784
00:28:44,860 --> 00:28:47,500
And they got all this new gear in

785
00:28:47,500 --> 00:28:49,620
and we sounded really good after that.

786
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,360
And so I was a big buddy with

787
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:52,060
the sound guy.

788
00:28:52,140 --> 00:28:54,220
So he had mic collections that he would

789
00:28:54,220 --> 00:28:55,700
to this day.

790
00:28:55,740 --> 00:28:58,560
He'll loan me any any number of crazy

791
00:28:58,560 --> 00:28:59,520
mics that he owns.

792
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,400
But, you know, so you make and then

793
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:03,960
you want to make friends with the lighting

794
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,580
guy because they can make you look like

795
00:29:05,580 --> 00:29:08,700
a like a really old guy that they

796
00:29:08,700 --> 00:29:10,000
don't they don't like you.

797
00:29:10,140 --> 00:29:12,460
It's it is critical for people who are

798
00:29:12,460 --> 00:29:14,620
still in that kind of broadcasting these days.

799
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,740
iPhone does it all in the camera.

800
00:29:17,020 --> 00:29:19,760
It's all algorithms that just make you look

801
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:20,700
good no matter what.

802
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,080
But when it comes to studio television with

803
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,140
a control room that's doing switching, the people

804
00:29:27,140 --> 00:29:29,180
there really appreciate if you know what their

805
00:29:29,180 --> 00:29:29,760
job is.

806
00:29:29,820 --> 00:29:32,460
I mean, I did audio for about 30

807
00:29:32,460 --> 00:29:33,280
percent of MTV.

808
00:29:33,500 --> 00:29:34,360
I was there anyway.

809
00:29:35,060 --> 00:29:37,500
Rick Kelman, he died a few years ago,

810
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:38,400
10 years ago.

811
00:29:38,820 --> 00:29:40,160
He was the audio guy.

812
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,160
And I'd be hanging out with him at

813
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,680
the time, mainly because this is another tip.

814
00:29:45,140 --> 00:29:47,280
The audio guys always have the best weed.

815
00:29:47,780 --> 00:29:49,480
So he had the connections, everything.

816
00:29:50,220 --> 00:29:51,380
And that, you know, he would go take

817
00:29:51,380 --> 00:29:52,700
a dump in my dressing room and I'd

818
00:29:52,700 --> 00:29:54,280
just do audio and the director, no one

819
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:54,420
knew.

820
00:29:54,420 --> 00:29:56,480
Take a dump in your dressing room.

821
00:29:56,580 --> 00:29:58,700
We were friends.

822
00:29:59,180 --> 00:30:02,600
I had the only dressing room with the

823
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,820
bathroom and he was in the bathroom.

824
00:30:05,060 --> 00:30:06,280
You didn't make that clear.

825
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:07,860
Here's the here's the bonus.

826
00:30:08,260 --> 00:30:09,360
This is before email.

827
00:30:10,260 --> 00:30:12,360
So I in my dressing room work at

828
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:16,240
any moment, 11 to 12 postal sacks, old

829
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:20,600
school postal sacks filled with postcards and letters.

830
00:30:21,140 --> 00:30:23,680
And the agreement was, you know, whoever was

831
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,440
taking a dump had to go through a

832
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:26,120
couple of letters.

833
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,460
And if anything good popped out pictures, for

834
00:30:28,460 --> 00:30:30,500
example, we'd lay those aside.

835
00:30:30,780 --> 00:30:33,860
But back to the point, if you just

836
00:30:33,860 --> 00:30:36,140
hold on to the line producer, you know,

837
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,320
that guy's hated in the control room.

838
00:30:38,940 --> 00:30:41,080
You want to make good with the director.

839
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:42,540
You want to be interested in what they're

840
00:30:42,540 --> 00:30:42,900
doing.

841
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:47,160
The technical director who's switching and the audio.

842
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,280
And then also at the time we had

843
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,820
the tape guys in the back because you'd

844
00:30:51,820 --> 00:30:54,040
have a roll in, you'd have a seven

845
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:57,320
second delay because it had to spin up.

846
00:30:58,100 --> 00:31:00,160
You know, this is I'm going way back

847
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:00,460
now.

848
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,160
So if you if you still see it

849
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,360
today, like, well, let's roll that clip and

850
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:06,500
it still takes forever.

851
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,300
That's just the delay between you and the

852
00:31:08,300 --> 00:31:10,040
control room and the control rooms and the

853
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:11,500
director saying, roll the clip.

854
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:13,600
So I would be with the I'd say,

855
00:31:13,660 --> 00:31:14,980
OK, here's here's where I'm going to end

856
00:31:14,980 --> 00:31:15,440
the sentence.

857
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:16,500
I'll end it with this so you can

858
00:31:16,500 --> 00:31:17,400
kind of time it.

859
00:31:17,540 --> 00:31:18,880
So everything was tight.

860
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:21,880
Why everyone else was doing coke with Billy

861
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:22,160
Idol.

862
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:23,260
I was doing that.

863
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,380
So the point is, is that the control

864
00:31:27,380 --> 00:31:30,000
room guys, when you're doing the feed before

865
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,240
you're on the air.

866
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:34,280
They can record it.

867
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:34,900
Yeah.

868
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:36,740
And when they record it, this is the

869
00:31:36,740 --> 00:31:39,340
hot mic moment, you know, is how did

870
00:31:39,340 --> 00:31:41,160
this how did this recording of a hot

871
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,320
mic get out?

872
00:31:43,180 --> 00:31:46,400
Somebody in the control room recorded it and

873
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,400
they kept it and put it aside.

874
00:31:48,540 --> 00:31:50,500
And then they released it one way or

875
00:31:50,500 --> 00:31:50,880
another.

876
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,580
And out it comes to make you look

877
00:31:53,580 --> 00:31:54,720
like an idiot.

878
00:31:56,100 --> 00:31:56,460
Very.

879
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,380
So you don't want that one of you

880
00:31:59,380 --> 00:32:01,620
looking like, no, by the way, just to

881
00:32:01,620 --> 00:32:03,240
go, he says we're just doing an aside

882
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:03,540
here.

883
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,140
I think that these end of shows where

884
00:32:06,140 --> 00:32:07,940
they show all the bloopers or the guy

885
00:32:07,940 --> 00:32:09,740
for screwing up left and right, left and

886
00:32:09,740 --> 00:32:09,920
right.

887
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,220
I think that is part of of the

888
00:32:12,220 --> 00:32:14,460
same idea of making you look like an

889
00:32:14,460 --> 00:32:14,700
idiot.

890
00:32:14,740 --> 00:32:16,180
You always feel it's insulting.

891
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,540
They do this for the sole purpose of

892
00:32:19,540 --> 00:32:21,680
making the talent look like an idiot because

893
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:22,060
they don't.

894
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:23,260
Everyone hates talent.

895
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,560
Hey, next time you have a thousand dollar

896
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,080
dinner with Brunetti, ask him if that's the

897
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:31,000
same vibe in movies because movies will often

898
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:31,440
do this.

899
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,120
They'll show all the bloopers at the end

900
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:34,440
during the credits.

901
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,880
I will ask you, is that also just

902
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,300
the producer like kind of getting is the

903
00:32:39,300 --> 00:32:42,540
talent, his last hurrah saying we spent an

904
00:32:42,540 --> 00:32:45,080
extra five hundred thousand dollars because these people

905
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,360
couldn't stop cracking up or couldn't remember their

906
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:47,880
lines.

907
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,240
Yeah, I think that it has to be.

908
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,240
Yeah, I would because that's the only thing

909
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:53,880
that makes any sense because it's not that

910
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:54,500
entertaining.

911
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,720
So here we have this woman who is

912
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,200
the chief White House correspondent for CBS.

913
00:32:59,620 --> 00:33:00,500
That's the best part.

914
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:03,940
And I want to I have a comment

915
00:33:03,940 --> 00:33:04,860
about that.

916
00:33:04,940 --> 00:33:06,920
And then TMZ Live did something very similar.

917
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:07,680
I didn't record it.

918
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,220
But so she's the she's the chief White

919
00:33:10,220 --> 00:33:11,120
House correspondent.

920
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:15,580
She is the go to girl, Olivia Rinaldi

921
00:33:15,580 --> 00:33:16,400
at CBS.

922
00:33:16,460 --> 00:33:19,120
And somebody recorded her just before she did

923
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:19,720
her hit.

924
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,300
It's what's called a hit when you come

925
00:33:21,300 --> 00:33:21,560
on.

926
00:33:21,780 --> 00:33:22,180
Yeah.

927
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:24,420
So she comes on to do her hit.

928
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,500
But but in the meantime, she's doing a

929
00:33:26,500 --> 00:33:28,280
mic check and she's doing all the rest

930
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:28,500
of it.

931
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:29,860
And somebody's recording it.

932
00:33:29,860 --> 00:33:31,680
And somebody released it.

933
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,720
And here's what it sounded like.

934
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,060
This come back to me.

935
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:42,620
She just posted it.

936
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:43,460
Oh, my God.

937
00:33:43,660 --> 00:33:44,540
Oh, my God.

938
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,000
Oh, it's huge.

939
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,420
The ring is ginormous.

940
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:48,400
This is so exciting.

941
00:33:57,260 --> 00:33:59,220
I feel like Paul Revere right now.

942
00:33:59,860 --> 00:34:00,260
Oh, my God.

943
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,760
It loses just a little bit when you

944
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,160
don't see that big mouth of hers go

945
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,280
like she's ready for a fish to be

946
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,159
slopped in there.

947
00:34:10,699 --> 00:34:11,679
You know what I mean?

948
00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:12,420
Yeah.

949
00:34:12,739 --> 00:34:14,620
Kind of lose a little bit.

950
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:15,040
It's pretty bad.

951
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:15,980
Yes.

952
00:34:18,460 --> 00:34:19,260
And so.

953
00:34:19,380 --> 00:34:20,280
Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my

954
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:20,820
God, oh, my God.

955
00:34:21,139 --> 00:34:22,540
It's ginormous.

956
00:34:22,620 --> 00:34:23,820
The ring is ginormous.

957
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,280
This is an idiot.

958
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:30,220
Yes.

959
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,340
And she's chief White House correspondent.

960
00:34:32,460 --> 00:34:34,860
So then they cut to the hit.

961
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,560
Now, this is the part that actually went

962
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:38,179
over the air.

963
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:39,340
She's still giddy.

964
00:34:39,980 --> 00:34:41,500
But she's calmed down.

965
00:34:41,580 --> 00:34:44,199
Her voice has gotten to his professional level.

966
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,100
But she still can't get over this remarkable

967
00:34:48,100 --> 00:34:53,739
news that this publicity stunt of the highest

968
00:34:53,739 --> 00:34:57,240
order, because they both actually work for the

969
00:34:57,240 --> 00:34:58,800
same publicist, more or less.

970
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,640
We discovered this years ago, two years ago,

971
00:35:01,700 --> 00:35:02,440
when they got together.

972
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:03,260
It was bullcrap.

973
00:35:03,620 --> 00:35:03,720
Yes.

974
00:35:04,100 --> 00:35:07,220
And they were forced to be a couple.

975
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,260
And then, of course, we'll talk more later.

976
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,780
But now here she is under almost normal

977
00:35:13,780 --> 00:35:14,420
circumstance.

978
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,720
This is a very exciting moment for me

979
00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:18,720
in my professional career because I get to

980
00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:21,080
announce that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

981
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:22,800
She's not even being ironic.

982
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:24,120
She really means that.

983
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,640
This is an exciting moment because she's like

984
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,720
Paul Revere in her professional career.

985
00:35:28,980 --> 00:35:30,400
She gets to announce it.

986
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:31,860
She has breaking news, everybody.

987
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:33,940
This is a very exciting moment for me

988
00:35:33,940 --> 00:35:35,940
in my professional career because I get to

989
00:35:35,940 --> 00:35:38,760
announce that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are

990
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:39,420
engaged.

991
00:35:39,540 --> 00:35:41,720
As you're talking to Joe Lang, our lovely

992
00:35:41,720 --> 00:35:44,520
producer Gabby Ake texted me and said Taylor

993
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:45,400
Swift's engaged.

994
00:35:45,500 --> 00:35:47,200
And you can see it right there on

995
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:48,040
her social media.

996
00:35:48,220 --> 00:35:50,300
She put it up in that post that

997
00:35:50,300 --> 00:35:51,760
they got engaged with the caption.

998
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,860
Your English teacher and your gym teacher are

999
00:35:54,860 --> 00:35:58,080
getting married with a little dynamite sign there.

1000
00:35:58,220 --> 00:36:01,400
So very exciting here that we get to

1001
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:02,800
break that and tell you about that.

1002
00:36:03,140 --> 00:36:03,980
All right.

1003
00:36:04,240 --> 00:36:05,520
Swifties for life.

1004
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,840
I have a feeling, though, based on his

1005
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,260
prior statements, the president will not be having

1006
00:36:10,260 --> 00:36:12,040
a Taylor Swift wedding in the ballroom.

1007
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:13,860
Hopefully, that can shift and change.

1008
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:15,620
We can have some world peace, right?

1009
00:36:16,020 --> 00:36:17,560
Olivia Rinaldi, thank you so much.

1010
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,180
You know, Reid, I volunteer to cover it

1011
00:36:19,180 --> 00:36:20,200
in case you need.

1012
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,180
I'll be there to cover it.

1013
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,140
Thank you for the sacrifice, Olivia.

1014
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:25,620
We appreciate you, my friend.

1015
00:36:25,820 --> 00:36:26,620
Oh, my God.

1016
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:27,820
That is amazing.

1017
00:36:30,790 --> 00:36:31,310
Unbelievable.

1018
00:36:31,850 --> 00:36:32,650
It's amazing.

1019
00:36:32,890 --> 00:36:33,590
It's amazing.

1020
00:36:35,290 --> 00:36:38,150
Well, just to mention this, because I saw

1021
00:36:38,150 --> 00:36:41,110
this to TMZ Live, I just turned it

1022
00:36:41,110 --> 00:36:44,310
on for just for casually, and they were

1023
00:36:44,310 --> 00:36:46,890
doing a very interesting story about some rapper

1024
00:36:46,890 --> 00:36:48,150
who is a psychopath.

1025
00:36:49,790 --> 00:36:50,830
Big shocker.

1026
00:36:50,830 --> 00:36:53,010
And right in the middle of it, one

1027
00:36:53,010 --> 00:36:55,550
of the staffers, one of the kind of

1028
00:36:55,550 --> 00:37:01,550
the slightly overweight blonde that's always sitting around

1029
00:37:01,550 --> 00:37:05,450
making comments in their little newsroom they have,

1030
00:37:05,790 --> 00:37:08,650
she comes in and she is beside herself

1031
00:37:08,650 --> 00:37:11,910
with holding a phone, same kind of thing,

1032
00:37:12,310 --> 00:37:12,790
Taylor Swift.

1033
00:37:13,290 --> 00:37:15,050
And they all got all the holes.

1034
00:37:15,310 --> 00:37:15,710
They stopped.

1035
00:37:16,010 --> 00:37:17,770
They basically is a showstopper.

1036
00:37:17,770 --> 00:37:19,990
They stopped to report on this, on the

1037
00:37:19,990 --> 00:37:20,350
rapper.

1038
00:37:20,930 --> 00:37:24,510
And even Harry, or is it Harry Levin?

1039
00:37:24,970 --> 00:37:25,330
Yes.

1040
00:37:26,030 --> 00:37:28,830
He's like, he got giddy because he's a

1041
00:37:28,830 --> 00:37:29,750
big Swiftie.

1042
00:37:29,910 --> 00:37:32,050
And they rush over to the computer because

1043
00:37:32,050 --> 00:37:33,590
he's got to check it out to make

1044
00:37:33,590 --> 00:37:34,410
sure it's true.

1045
00:37:34,690 --> 00:37:36,990
And he's on the machine himself and he's

1046
00:37:36,990 --> 00:37:37,710
looking it up.

1047
00:37:37,830 --> 00:37:39,650
And it was embarrassing.

1048
00:37:40,090 --> 00:37:40,330
Yeah.

1049
00:37:41,370 --> 00:37:43,330
What is wrong with these people?

1050
00:37:43,330 --> 00:37:44,670
Well, there's a lot wrong.

1051
00:37:45,090 --> 00:37:46,750
And, you know, just kind of back to

1052
00:37:46,750 --> 00:37:48,830
the phones and social media.

1053
00:37:50,270 --> 00:37:53,090
I saw this guy developed an app.

1054
00:37:53,150 --> 00:37:55,150
I think it's called the Parallels app.

1055
00:37:56,050 --> 00:37:58,210
And it looks just like Instagram.

1056
00:37:58,470 --> 00:38:00,490
It looks like you're doing an Instagram live,

1057
00:38:00,530 --> 00:38:03,170
or as we say, I'm doing a live,

1058
00:38:03,750 --> 00:38:05,550
only it makes it look like you have

1059
00:38:05,550 --> 00:38:09,430
40 or 50,000 people watching live at

1060
00:38:09,430 --> 00:38:10,090
that moment.

1061
00:38:10,810 --> 00:38:12,670
And so, and I think, I think this

1062
00:38:12,670 --> 00:38:13,850
is available in the app store.

1063
00:38:14,150 --> 00:38:16,070
And so the guy goes right up to

1064
00:38:16,070 --> 00:38:17,170
doormen at clubs.

1065
00:38:17,210 --> 00:38:19,390
Like there was an art gallery, you know,

1066
00:38:19,390 --> 00:38:21,190
all kinds of celebrities inside.

1067
00:38:21,190 --> 00:38:22,830
And he shows, he says to the bouncer,

1068
00:38:22,930 --> 00:38:24,070
hey man, I'm live right now.

1069
00:38:24,090 --> 00:38:25,630
We got 49,000 people.

1070
00:38:25,790 --> 00:38:27,910
And the bouncers like, oh, and then he

1071
00:38:27,910 --> 00:38:29,630
calls over the managers like, yeah, come on

1072
00:38:29,630 --> 00:38:29,750
in.

1073
00:38:29,790 --> 00:38:31,630
The guy is in the VIP lounge.

1074
00:38:31,870 --> 00:38:34,730
And the women, the women who just go,

1075
00:38:34,970 --> 00:38:37,170
oh, hey, hi, shout out to my peeps.

1076
00:38:37,690 --> 00:38:40,470
They're dancing, they're showing their bodies off.

1077
00:38:40,690 --> 00:38:43,010
People lose their ever-loving minds because they

1078
00:38:43,010 --> 00:38:44,030
think they have an audience.

1079
00:38:44,830 --> 00:38:47,970
It is a very, very troubling thing to

1080
00:38:47,970 --> 00:38:48,430
see.

1081
00:38:49,110 --> 00:38:50,870
But also, but also a great hack to

1082
00:38:50,870 --> 00:38:51,630
get in everywhere.

1083
00:38:52,050 --> 00:38:53,610
Like, hey man, I'm live right now.

1084
00:38:53,730 --> 00:38:54,270
Look at this.

1085
00:38:54,470 --> 00:38:56,970
And you see all the people streaming by,

1086
00:38:57,210 --> 00:39:00,510
you know, chatting and waving, et cetera, on

1087
00:39:00,510 --> 00:39:01,410
the screen.

1088
00:39:01,550 --> 00:39:03,570
Great idea, but it shows you.

1089
00:39:03,570 --> 00:39:07,650
It shows you how egotistical we've become.

1090
00:39:09,630 --> 00:39:10,510
Just crazy.

1091
00:39:12,820 --> 00:39:14,240
I like that bit.

1092
00:39:14,340 --> 00:39:15,360
It's a great bit.

1093
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,840
Can I just do a few AI things

1094
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:19,280
for a second?

1095
00:39:19,420 --> 00:39:20,160
Get it out of the way.

1096
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:21,300
There's enough.

1097
00:39:21,620 --> 00:39:25,580
It's a harsh transition, but sure.

1098
00:39:25,660 --> 00:39:27,660
Well, I'm trying to stay phones, technology.

1099
00:39:27,820 --> 00:39:29,940
I'm trying to, I'm trying to stay in

1100
00:39:29,940 --> 00:39:30,500
that vein.

1101
00:39:31,020 --> 00:39:32,680
So this was bound to happen.

1102
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,940
We knew it happened, but now the lawsuits

1103
00:39:34,940 --> 00:39:35,520
come out.

1104
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,740
A California family is suing OpenAI saying ChatGPT

1105
00:39:39,740 --> 00:39:42,240
encouraged their teenage son to take his own

1106
00:39:42,240 --> 00:39:42,600
life.

1107
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,060
The lawsuit claims that 16-year-old Adam

1108
00:39:45,060 --> 00:39:48,840
Rain developed a deep emotional dependence on the

1109
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,500
chatbot, which repeatedly encouraged him to die by

1110
00:39:51,500 --> 00:39:53,920
suicide, they say, in detailed methods of self

1111
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,200
-harm instead of guiding him toward help.

1112
00:39:56,420 --> 00:39:59,060
The parents found thousands of messages between their

1113
00:39:59,060 --> 00:40:01,120
son and the bot showing that it became

1114
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,920
a sort of suicide coach instead of offering

1115
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:04,480
support.

1116
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,100
OpenAI now says it is working to strengthen

1117
00:40:07,100 --> 00:40:10,580
ChatGPT safeguards in the light of the tragedy.

1118
00:40:10,780 --> 00:40:12,200
If you or someone you know is in

1119
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,320
crisis, call 988 to be connected to the

1120
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,140
suicide and crisis lifeline.

1121
00:40:17,380 --> 00:40:19,220
Of course, they can't do any of that.

1122
00:40:19,300 --> 00:40:21,060
And Discovery will be phenomenal.

1123
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:25,160
Thousands and thousands of pages of this kid

1124
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:26,180
being psyoped.

1125
00:40:27,060 --> 00:40:29,160
Put me on a jury for this.

1126
00:40:30,540 --> 00:40:32,540
You know where I could be headed.

1127
00:40:32,780 --> 00:40:36,180
You know, the biggest possible settlement in favor

1128
00:40:36,180 --> 00:40:38,420
of the parents and against these operations.

1129
00:40:39,180 --> 00:40:42,460
This is a liability issue that they better

1130
00:40:42,460 --> 00:40:43,680
get to real quick.

1131
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,840
And then they should be sued.

1132
00:40:46,140 --> 00:40:47,060
But they can't.

1133
00:40:47,140 --> 00:40:48,440
They can't do it.

1134
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:49,820
You can't put guardrails around.

1135
00:40:49,860 --> 00:40:51,100
They don't even know how it works.

1136
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:52,200
It just kind of works.

1137
00:40:52,980 --> 00:40:53,420
And then they.

1138
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:54,880
Sorry.

1139
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,300
If they they sued that girl, if you

1140
00:40:58,300 --> 00:41:00,680
remember, the one who some girlfriend of a

1141
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,920
guy who encouraged her boyfriend to kill himself.

1142
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:05,520
You remember, it was a few years ago.

1143
00:41:06,420 --> 00:41:08,260
And she lost the suit.

1144
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:10,920
It was some.

1145
00:41:12,260 --> 00:41:14,300
I forget what type of suit it was.

1146
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,260
It was a wrongful death, I think.

1147
00:41:17,140 --> 00:41:19,400
And I don't see why you can't sue

1148
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,540
these ChatGPT for this.

1149
00:41:21,720 --> 00:41:22,360
Oh, definitely.

1150
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,560
They have no indemnity.

1151
00:41:25,380 --> 00:41:27,300
Or they have to be sued.

1152
00:41:27,460 --> 00:41:28,240
They have to be sued.

1153
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,540
The same doctors who do the the surgeries

1154
00:41:31,540 --> 00:41:32,780
for trans.

1155
00:41:32,940 --> 00:41:34,220
They have to be so it's coming.

1156
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,120
This pharmaceutical companies have to be sued.

1157
00:41:36,220 --> 00:41:39,120
The doctors, the clinics have to be sued.

1158
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:40,920
You have to the lawyers.

1159
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:41,960
Come on, lawyers.

1160
00:41:43,660 --> 00:41:45,880
Hey, Rob, step up.

1161
00:41:45,940 --> 00:41:46,780
Boots and suits.

1162
00:41:46,780 --> 00:41:47,500
Come on, man.

1163
00:41:47,500 --> 00:41:48,780
Let's go sue some companies.

1164
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,380
So here is the chief financial officer of

1165
00:41:52,380 --> 00:41:56,160
OpenAI on CNBC in the morning with that

1166
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:57,580
Sorkin kid.

1167
00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,540
Her name is Sarah Fryer.

1168
00:41:59,700 --> 00:42:01,160
And she and I wish I had video

1169
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,900
because she's very odd, odd expression she makes.

1170
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,540
And so, of course, the conversations.

1171
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,960
Well, you know, ChatGPT 5, it was held

1172
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:11,060
as the big thing.

1173
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,380
And, you know, people were kind of grumbling

1174
00:42:13,380 --> 00:42:14,680
about that being so careful.

1175
00:42:14,900 --> 00:42:16,240
Oh, we don't want to blow the bubble

1176
00:42:16,240 --> 00:42:16,760
of AI.

1177
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,020
So maybe it's getting a little better.

1178
00:42:19,940 --> 00:42:23,300
But listen to what the complaints were, because

1179
00:42:23,300 --> 00:42:25,080
that's really what this is all about.

1180
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:26,720
It's not for coding.

1181
00:42:27,240 --> 00:42:28,920
Yeah, it does some things.

1182
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,860
It's it's certainly not for writing, which I'll

1183
00:42:31,860 --> 00:42:32,560
get to in a moment.

1184
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,620
It's really for people just to love as

1185
00:42:35,620 --> 00:42:36,720
their AI.

1186
00:42:36,900 --> 00:42:38,500
Join us right now, though, at the table.

1187
00:42:38,540 --> 00:42:40,000
This is not gray at all.

1188
00:42:40,020 --> 00:42:44,040
An exclusive interview with OpenAI's CFO, Sarah Fryer

1189
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:44,880
at the table.

1190
00:42:44,940 --> 00:42:45,760
It's nice to see you.

1191
00:42:46,300 --> 00:42:49,400
We talked to Sam just about two weeks

1192
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,440
ago now when ChatGPT 5 launched.

1193
00:42:53,720 --> 00:42:56,540
There was a little bit of consternation in

1194
00:42:56,540 --> 00:42:59,000
the week since about sort of what is

1195
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:00,880
going on with the model, some shifts in

1196
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:01,220
the model.

1197
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,800
I will say that it seems like it's

1198
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,540
gotten a little bit better from some of

1199
00:43:06,540 --> 00:43:09,560
the problems that first emerged right out of

1200
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:09,860
the gate.

1201
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,200
Have you been experiencing this?

1202
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,720
What kind of financial question is this?

1203
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,480
Have you been experiencing this?

1204
00:43:17,620 --> 00:43:19,580
Hey, does it hit your bottom line?

1205
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,100
Chief financial officer from some of the problems

1206
00:43:23,100 --> 00:43:25,340
that first emerged right out of the gate.

1207
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:26,680
Have you been experiencing this?

1208
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,080
So, I mean, I think with any launch,

1209
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,180
when you have 700 million weekly active users,

1210
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,360
you start to find people are very opinionated.

1211
00:43:35,720 --> 00:43:37,960
They've come to love their ChatGPT.

1212
00:43:38,420 --> 00:43:40,060
And frankly, as we've released things like memory,

1213
00:43:40,060 --> 00:43:42,380
it's become more and more your ChatGPT.

1214
00:43:42,380 --> 00:43:44,060
But as we've come out of the gate,

1215
00:43:44,140 --> 00:43:47,320
we're seeing actually acceleration in plus and pro

1216
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:47,820
subscriptions.

1217
00:43:47,820 --> 00:43:49,080
That's a good sign.

1218
00:43:49,220 --> 00:43:50,300
People are seeing a lot of value.

1219
00:43:50,500 --> 00:43:52,480
And we're seeing really nice momentum in the

1220
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,360
enterprise, great momentum with developers.

1221
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,540
In the enterprise, great momentum.

1222
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:58,060
That means bull crap.

1223
00:43:58,780 --> 00:44:00,100
Those are bull crap words.

1224
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:00,660
Yes.

1225
00:44:00,780 --> 00:44:05,160
Just to draw a little sidebar here, JC,

1226
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,960
who's in this stuff, he says it in

1227
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:10,380
the community, the community.

1228
00:44:10,380 --> 00:44:11,100
The community.

1229
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:12,060
Oh, the community.

1230
00:44:12,060 --> 00:44:17,020
Everyone thinks ChatGPT 5 is a complete fail.

1231
00:44:18,740 --> 00:44:20,600
And everybody knows it.

1232
00:44:20,740 --> 00:44:21,000
Yeah.

1233
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,700
And if anything, it costs more because of

1234
00:44:24,700 --> 00:44:26,540
this router thing they put in the middle.

1235
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,460
And just as I'll do another aside, I

1236
00:44:30,460 --> 00:44:36,440
keep reading these news bulletins about these AI

1237
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,820
geniuses who are being poached and then, you

1238
00:44:39,820 --> 00:44:43,740
know, for $100 million, $250 million from OpenAI

1239
00:44:43,740 --> 00:44:46,240
to Meta to Google, then back to OpenAI.

1240
00:44:46,580 --> 00:44:48,240
They're just raising their price.

1241
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:50,040
What?

1242
00:44:50,420 --> 00:44:52,840
Is this AI smart or what?

1243
00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:54,300
I thought that this stuff could do it

1244
00:44:54,300 --> 00:44:54,960
all for you.

1245
00:44:55,240 --> 00:44:57,820
You got to get some nerds who are

1246
00:44:57,820 --> 00:45:00,660
going to overpay grossly to come in and

1247
00:45:00,660 --> 00:45:01,300
do it for you.

1248
00:45:01,340 --> 00:45:02,840
And I think they're all unloading them on

1249
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:03,240
Elon.

1250
00:45:03,240 --> 00:45:04,860
Good luck with that.

1251
00:45:05,180 --> 00:45:07,860
Yeah, Elon seems to be catching them.

1252
00:45:08,140 --> 00:45:09,240
I'm buying them all up.

1253
00:45:09,300 --> 00:45:10,340
Yeah, we're going to be at the top

1254
00:45:10,340 --> 00:45:10,900
of the bill.

1255
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:12,180
Oh, it's going to be fantastic.

1256
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,960
Meanwhile, remember the guy I told you about?

1257
00:45:15,100 --> 00:45:18,360
We were at his house for a dinner.

1258
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:19,400
This is a while back.

1259
00:45:19,460 --> 00:45:21,580
And he is in the data center business.

1260
00:45:22,540 --> 00:45:23,580
Yes, I remember that.

1261
00:45:23,860 --> 00:45:25,900
And so the conversation I had with him

1262
00:45:25,900 --> 00:45:26,920
at the time, because I'm like, this is

1263
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:27,620
a nice house.

1264
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,260
And he's talking about data science.

1265
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:29,560
Oh, wait.

1266
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,160
So basically, you're building stuff for compute?

1267
00:45:33,540 --> 00:45:34,840
He says, yep, that's what we're doing.

1268
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,800
Then I asked him who his customers were.

1269
00:45:38,260 --> 00:45:41,960
And I'm like, this was when the articles

1270
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,080
were coming out that Google had canceled a

1271
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:47,620
couple contracts, which of course, well, that's not

1272
00:45:47,620 --> 00:45:47,860
true.

1273
00:45:48,100 --> 00:45:50,120
But he said, it doesn't matter.

1274
00:45:52,500 --> 00:45:54,260
Because private equity came in.

1275
00:45:54,300 --> 00:45:55,120
We've been bought out.

1276
00:45:55,240 --> 00:45:57,160
I said, ah, hence the house.

1277
00:45:57,220 --> 00:45:57,880
He says, yeah.

1278
00:45:58,430 --> 00:46:03,460
And now I hear, surprise, surprise, all salaries

1279
00:46:03,460 --> 00:46:05,560
at that company are being cut by a

1280
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:06,460
third this year.

1281
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,680
They'll cut another third next year.

1282
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:10,280
This is over.

1283
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:12,880
This is what private equity does.

1284
00:46:13,220 --> 00:46:14,360
They've already flipped it.

1285
00:46:14,580 --> 00:46:15,820
They've already sold it on.

1286
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:17,740
And now they're just stripping away the parts.

1287
00:46:17,900 --> 00:46:19,360
And there'll be nothing but a mountain of

1288
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:19,900
debt left.

1289
00:46:20,260 --> 00:46:22,940
And then someone will come in and scoop

1290
00:46:22,940 --> 00:46:24,940
up these data centers for pennies on the

1291
00:46:24,940 --> 00:46:25,220
dollar.

1292
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,200
So these are all signals that something is

1293
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:30,520
afoot.

1294
00:46:30,620 --> 00:46:31,360
I'm with you.

1295
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,120
It probably won't happen tomorrow.

1296
00:46:33,220 --> 00:46:34,300
It's going to take longer.

1297
00:46:35,140 --> 00:46:36,040
But then we have.

1298
00:46:36,720 --> 00:46:38,680
And by the way, private equity has pulled

1299
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:39,960
an interesting stunt.

1300
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:44,040
They have somehow wrangled the ability for people

1301
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:47,260
to put private equity firms into their 401ks.

1302
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,160
Yeah, that's part of Trump's.

1303
00:46:50,300 --> 00:46:52,160
Everybody knows what that means.

1304
00:46:52,860 --> 00:46:54,760
It's a way to, you know, because these

1305
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:56,920
guys are, this is some sort of the

1306
00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:01,320
private equity thing going on in this era

1307
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,180
is something of a scam.

1308
00:47:03,780 --> 00:47:05,360
And they're going to, they're going to lay

1309
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:06,400
it off on the public.

1310
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:08,380
Just what they all, all the big boys

1311
00:47:08,380 --> 00:47:10,740
always push it into the, into the retirement

1312
00:47:10,740 --> 00:47:11,300
funds.

1313
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,600
And so when the whole thing collapses, which

1314
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,880
it will, because it can't sustain, they've already,

1315
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,680
they, they soak, they soak everybody.

1316
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,460
They take the money by the, you know,

1317
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:21,960
your buddy has a big house.

1318
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:24,660
He benefited and other people will benefit.

1319
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,340
But the people that won't benefit are the

1320
00:47:27,340 --> 00:47:29,700
public, the public at large, who's got this

1321
00:47:29,700 --> 00:47:31,260
crap in their 401k.

1322
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,820
And I should also say that either he

1323
00:47:33,820 --> 00:47:36,480
takes the third salary cut, he's 61.

1324
00:47:36,780 --> 00:47:37,960
So he's not probably going to get another

1325
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:38,460
job.

1326
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,500
If he takes the salary cut and wants

1327
00:47:41,500 --> 00:47:43,860
to stay on with another third salary cut

1328
00:47:43,860 --> 00:47:45,920
next year, he also has to sign a

1329
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:47,360
one year non-compete.

1330
00:47:50,230 --> 00:47:51,830
It's like, wow.

1331
00:47:51,830 --> 00:47:53,890
You know, and he doesn't really want to

1332
00:47:53,890 --> 00:47:56,090
stop working, but, you know, he kind of

1333
00:47:56,090 --> 00:47:56,610
has to.

1334
00:47:57,210 --> 00:47:58,950
There's just no, there's no, there's no way

1335
00:47:58,950 --> 00:47:59,610
out for him.

1336
00:47:59,810 --> 00:48:02,490
Oh, speaking of data centers, just the latest,

1337
00:48:02,730 --> 00:48:05,250
listen to the bull crap at the end

1338
00:48:05,250 --> 00:48:05,950
of this report.

1339
00:48:06,090 --> 00:48:08,790
New in 5.30, Google is investing $9

1340
00:48:08,790 --> 00:48:11,450
billion in Virginia through 2026.

1341
00:48:11,610 --> 00:48:13,470
The announcement came this morning at a community

1342
00:48:13,470 --> 00:48:15,810
celebration with state and local leaders.

1343
00:48:16,310 --> 00:48:17,930
Google says the money will be spent on

1344
00:48:17,930 --> 00:48:21,270
cloud and AI infrastructure, including the development of

1345
00:48:21,270 --> 00:48:23,710
a new data center in Chesterfield County near

1346
00:48:23,710 --> 00:48:25,370
the Meadowdale Technology Park.

1347
00:48:25,890 --> 00:48:28,570
The company also detailed expanded education and workforce

1348
00:48:28,570 --> 00:48:30,570
development programs for Virginians.

1349
00:48:30,770 --> 00:48:34,630
Google's commitment to invest, to hire and to

1350
00:48:34,630 --> 00:48:37,730
help prepare our students for a great future

1351
00:48:38,300 --> 00:48:39,410
is extraordinary.

1352
00:48:40,050 --> 00:48:42,350
And I think a great testament to what

1353
00:48:42,350 --> 00:48:45,510
Virginia offers today, which is a great place

1354
00:48:45,510 --> 00:48:47,150
for people to do business, but an even

1355
00:48:47,150 --> 00:48:49,370
better place for Virginians to find opportunity.

1356
00:48:50,310 --> 00:48:53,110
In the past, we've shared the voices of

1357
00:48:53,110 --> 00:48:55,570
community members concerned about the impact of data

1358
00:48:55,570 --> 00:48:58,190
centers on the local power and water grids

1359
00:48:58,190 --> 00:48:59,350
and on their wallets.

1360
00:48:59,910 --> 00:49:02,970
Google says its data centers operate in the

1361
00:49:02,970 --> 00:49:06,370
most energy efficient way in the industry and

1362
00:49:06,370 --> 00:49:08,710
that the company is committed to increasing energy

1363
00:49:08,710 --> 00:49:11,850
capacity and affordability for all Virginians by doing

1364
00:49:11,850 --> 00:49:15,230
things like investing in innovative technology like fusion

1365
00:49:15,230 --> 00:49:15,650
energy.

1366
00:49:15,650 --> 00:49:18,690
Google also reports the company is working with

1367
00:49:18,690 --> 00:49:20,590
the county to stay within the water system

1368
00:49:20,590 --> 00:49:20,990
guidelines.

1369
00:49:21,270 --> 00:49:22,270
I knew you'd get a kick out of

1370
00:49:22,270 --> 00:49:22,470
that.

1371
00:49:22,690 --> 00:49:24,410
Don't worry, people.

1372
00:49:24,610 --> 00:49:25,670
We're investing in fusion.

1373
00:49:25,910 --> 00:49:26,710
It'll be fine.

1374
00:49:28,710 --> 00:49:31,110
We'll make you whole on the back end.

1375
00:49:31,190 --> 00:49:32,110
It's going to be fine.

1376
00:49:32,850 --> 00:49:36,050
Now, unfortunately, this is like bringing quantum into

1377
00:49:36,050 --> 00:49:36,610
the picture.

1378
00:49:36,750 --> 00:49:37,430
Oh, it'll come.

1379
00:49:37,470 --> 00:49:38,390
As a solution.

1380
00:49:38,610 --> 00:49:39,150
It'll come.

1381
00:49:39,710 --> 00:49:43,170
Unfortunately, our president is so all in on

1382
00:49:43,170 --> 00:49:47,810
this and has nothing but ass kissers.

1383
00:49:48,650 --> 00:49:50,770
You know, just the whole thing is just

1384
00:49:50,770 --> 00:49:51,510
disgusting.

1385
00:49:52,070 --> 00:49:54,270
He believes it so much.

1386
00:49:54,310 --> 00:49:55,370
He's like, oh, yeah, this is it.

1387
00:49:55,510 --> 00:49:57,030
Because, you know, how could all these smart

1388
00:49:57,030 --> 00:49:58,030
people be wrong?

1389
00:49:58,370 --> 00:50:00,690
What he needs is the Curry Dvorak consulting

1390
00:50:00,690 --> 00:50:02,450
group to come into the Oval Office and

1391
00:50:02,450 --> 00:50:05,030
lay it down and say, Mr. President, stop

1392
00:50:05,030 --> 00:50:05,990
this insanity.

1393
00:50:06,490 --> 00:50:08,130
And no, no.

1394
00:50:08,130 --> 00:50:09,350
In fact, we're going to take it one

1395
00:50:09,350 --> 00:50:09,930
step further.

1396
00:50:10,390 --> 00:50:15,950
What could be worse than getting your kindergartners

1397
00:50:15,950 --> 00:50:19,090
to high schoolers to grade 12 in on

1398
00:50:19,090 --> 00:50:22,270
this nonsense and doing it with sweet little

1399
00:50:22,270 --> 00:50:22,810
Melania?

1400
00:50:24,890 --> 00:50:27,470
Are you ready for an AI challenge?

1401
00:50:28,450 --> 00:50:32,370
Take part in this nationwide initiative to discover,

1402
00:50:33,090 --> 00:50:36,010
develop and expand AI's potential.

1403
00:50:36,850 --> 00:50:40,130
As someone who created an AI powered audio

1404
00:50:40,130 --> 00:50:43,630
book and champion online safety through the Take

1405
00:50:43,630 --> 00:50:47,290
It Down Act, I've seen firsthand the promise

1406
00:50:47,290 --> 00:50:49,090
of this powerful technology.

1407
00:50:50,150 --> 00:50:53,670
Now, I pass the torch of innovation to

1408
00:50:53,670 --> 00:50:53,930
you.

1409
00:50:55,150 --> 00:50:57,930
Just as America once led the world into

1410
00:50:57,930 --> 00:51:01,170
the skies, we are poised to lead again.

1411
00:51:02,030 --> 00:51:04,430
This time in the age of AI.

1412
00:51:06,010 --> 00:51:11,310
The president's National Artificial Intelligence Challenge invites every

1413
00:51:11,310 --> 00:51:15,130
student in America from kindergarten to 12th grade

1414
00:51:15,130 --> 00:51:19,110
to unleash their imagination and showcase the spirit

1415
00:51:19,110 --> 00:51:20,750
of American innovation.

1416
00:51:22,170 --> 00:51:25,330
Our educators will guide and empower you through

1417
00:51:25,330 --> 00:51:29,290
this process to build a brighter, stronger future

1418
00:51:29,290 --> 00:51:30,310
for us all.

Visit AI.gov to register today.

1420
00:51:36,710 --> 00:51:39,310
Our educators will guide the process.

1421
00:51:39,470 --> 00:51:40,650
Oh, no.

1422
00:51:41,630 --> 00:51:43,150
This is a disaster.

1423
00:51:43,970 --> 00:51:45,770
They're encouraging this stuff.

1424
00:51:46,950 --> 00:51:48,950
Oh, yeah, we won't be able to keep

1425
00:51:48,950 --> 00:51:50,750
up with China if we don't have our

1426
00:51:50,750 --> 00:51:53,690
kids all talking to their chat GPT.

1427
00:51:57,230 --> 00:51:59,310
And then for you as a writer, I

1428
00:51:59,310 --> 00:52:00,350
think this is my final clip.

1429
00:52:00,570 --> 00:52:02,850
For you as a writer.

1430
00:52:04,110 --> 00:52:05,490
And this was interesting.

1431
00:52:05,490 --> 00:52:09,230
One of our producers wrote an article, I

1432
00:52:09,230 --> 00:52:13,150
put it in the show notes, about a

1433
00:52:13,150 --> 00:52:13,990
chatbot.

1434
00:52:14,090 --> 00:52:15,170
Let's just call them chatbots.

1435
00:52:16,370 --> 00:52:18,790
Using very performative language.

1436
00:52:19,110 --> 00:52:21,970
And that's how it kind of makes you

1437
00:52:21,970 --> 00:52:23,350
feel good the whole time.

1438
00:52:23,430 --> 00:52:25,650
But it's not really saying that you're great.

1439
00:52:25,790 --> 00:52:27,090
It's using performatives.

1440
00:52:27,270 --> 00:52:29,150
I think that you're really good.

1441
00:52:29,570 --> 00:52:30,690
Or it seems.

1442
00:52:31,190 --> 00:52:32,610
Or apparently.

1443
00:52:32,610 --> 00:52:34,890
I mean, there's all these different words that

1444
00:52:34,890 --> 00:52:36,510
just make you feel good.

1445
00:52:36,670 --> 00:52:40,710
And this assistant professor of computational linguistic studies,

1446
00:52:40,890 --> 00:52:45,550
Tom Juzek, he points out the fluff words

1447
00:52:45,550 --> 00:52:47,750
that these chatbots use.

1448
00:52:47,910 --> 00:52:49,090
And you as a writer, I think, will

1449
00:52:49,090 --> 00:52:49,910
enjoy this minute.

1450
00:52:50,530 --> 00:52:55,470
AI models use certain words like multifaceted, realm,

1451
00:52:55,790 --> 00:52:58,710
intricate, surpass, underscore.

1452
00:52:59,110 --> 00:53:01,190
Sometimes we call them AI fluff words.

1453
00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:06,150
The reason being that these adjectives, they're qualified.

1454
00:53:06,470 --> 00:53:09,130
They don't add that much to language.

1455
00:53:09,330 --> 00:53:10,710
What we have seen is that a lot

1456
00:53:10,710 --> 00:53:14,370
of these words that the models overuse are

1457
00:53:14,370 --> 00:53:16,910
now popping up in human language as well,

1458
00:53:17,050 --> 00:53:19,090
both in written language.

1459
00:53:19,290 --> 00:53:22,050
And now what we've been observing is, OK,

1460
00:53:22,110 --> 00:53:24,890
these words are also popping up in spoken

1461
00:53:24,890 --> 00:53:25,310
language.

1462
00:53:25,590 --> 00:53:28,750
The question is, why do we observe this

1463
00:53:28,750 --> 00:53:29,830
in speech?

1464
00:53:29,830 --> 00:53:33,750
Is it because this is natural language change,

1465
00:53:33,830 --> 00:53:35,090
as we've seen it in the past?

1466
00:53:35,150 --> 00:53:37,590
Or is it in relation to these AI

1467
00:53:37,590 --> 00:53:38,010
models?

1468
00:53:38,150 --> 00:53:40,790
There is the potential that AI models are

1469
00:53:40,790 --> 00:53:43,370
putting words into our mouths, into our minds.

1470
00:53:43,530 --> 00:53:47,130
But really, there is an entire discourse, similar

1471
00:53:47,130 --> 00:53:50,010
to what we are discussing for words, for

1472
00:53:50,010 --> 00:53:53,930
beliefs, human behavior, human beliefs, political beliefs, moral

1473
00:53:53,930 --> 00:53:54,430
beliefs.

1474
00:53:55,050 --> 00:53:58,630
So even the possibility that these models are

1475
00:53:58,630 --> 00:54:02,130
putting words and thoughts into our minds, that

1476
00:54:02,130 --> 00:54:04,950
is something that we really want to carefully

1477
00:54:04,950 --> 00:54:05,330
study.

1478
00:54:05,690 --> 00:54:06,050
Yeah.

1479
00:54:06,230 --> 00:54:06,890
Carefully study.

1480
00:54:07,110 --> 00:54:07,930
Knock it off.

1481
00:54:09,030 --> 00:54:10,190
Just knock it off.

1482
00:54:10,870 --> 00:54:12,010
AI fluff words.

1483
00:54:14,420 --> 00:54:17,300
Which brings us to another situation with words,

1484
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:18,760
which I want to bring into the show,

1485
00:54:21,050 --> 00:54:28,370
which is based on the Third Way group.

1486
00:54:28,370 --> 00:54:31,170
It's a consulting group that's basically a bunch

1487
00:54:31,170 --> 00:54:34,210
of Clinton-esque people with their list of

1488
00:54:34,210 --> 00:54:37,030
words that they want Democrats to stop saying.

1489
00:54:37,390 --> 00:54:38,970
Oh, I read about this.

1490
00:54:40,170 --> 00:54:42,110
And I want to go over these because

1491
00:54:42,110 --> 00:54:45,490
they actually left stuff out, believe it or

1492
00:54:45,490 --> 00:54:45,590
not.

1493
00:54:45,590 --> 00:54:48,890
This is the words like patriotism and words.

1494
00:54:49,010 --> 00:54:53,870
Well, no, they, well, the Democrats stopped saying

1495
00:54:53,870 --> 00:54:54,850
that a long time ago.

1496
00:54:55,090 --> 00:54:55,190
OK.

1497
00:54:55,190 --> 00:54:57,270
No, they want people to stop saying things.

1498
00:54:57,450 --> 00:54:58,910
And I want to go over this list

1499
00:54:58,910 --> 00:54:59,990
if you don't mind.

1500
00:55:00,230 --> 00:55:00,510
Yeah, yeah.

1501
00:55:00,570 --> 00:55:01,150
I'm all in.

1502
00:55:01,450 --> 00:55:02,810
They haven't categorized.

1503
00:55:02,890 --> 00:55:04,170
I found the original article.

1504
00:55:04,370 --> 00:55:05,630
And so they categorized it.

1505
00:55:05,850 --> 00:55:08,730
And nobody really, they kind of brought out

1506
00:55:08,730 --> 00:55:10,350
the whole list, but they don't know how

1507
00:55:10,350 --> 00:55:12,790
quite to attack it because it's just too

1508
00:55:12,790 --> 00:55:13,270
much here.

1509
00:55:13,670 --> 00:55:16,910
But this is the list of words they're

1510
00:55:16,910 --> 00:55:20,190
trying to get Democrats to stop saying because

1511
00:55:20,190 --> 00:55:21,810
it's hurting the cause.

1512
00:55:22,590 --> 00:55:24,990
And there's a thing called therapy speak.

1513
00:55:25,230 --> 00:55:28,450
These words say I'm more empathetic than you

1514
00:55:28,450 --> 00:55:31,910
and that you are a callous person.

1515
00:55:32,170 --> 00:55:33,730
And these words that have to go are

1516
00:55:33,730 --> 00:55:34,490
privilege.

1517
00:55:35,490 --> 00:55:36,130
Yeah.

1518
00:55:36,370 --> 00:55:36,710
OK.

1519
00:55:37,010 --> 00:55:37,590
Privilege.

1520
00:55:37,730 --> 00:55:37,870
Yeah.

1521
00:55:38,230 --> 00:55:41,510
Violence as in environmental violence.

1522
00:55:43,670 --> 00:55:44,310
Dialoguing.

1523
00:55:47,370 --> 00:55:48,010
Othering.

1524
00:55:48,230 --> 00:55:48,590
Hold on.

1525
00:55:48,590 --> 00:55:52,690
We are dialoguing twice a week and we

1526
00:55:52,690 --> 00:55:53,690
other a lot.

1527
00:55:54,890 --> 00:55:55,290
Othering.

1528
00:55:55,750 --> 00:55:56,230
Triggering.

1529
00:55:56,830 --> 00:55:57,550
Yeah, good luck.

1530
00:55:59,030 --> 00:55:59,510
Microaggression.

1531
00:56:00,570 --> 00:56:02,490
Assault and invalidation.

1532
00:56:02,710 --> 00:56:04,830
Dude, the Democrats won't be able to say

1533
00:56:04,830 --> 00:56:05,370
anything.

1534
00:56:05,690 --> 00:56:06,730
You take all these words out.

1535
00:56:06,850 --> 00:56:07,170
There'll be like.

1536
00:56:07,410 --> 00:56:08,850
This is only one of the segments.

1537
00:56:11,490 --> 00:56:12,450
Progressive stack.

1538
00:56:12,590 --> 00:56:13,510
I haven't heard that one.

1539
00:56:13,750 --> 00:56:15,570
Progressive stack is good.

1540
00:56:15,670 --> 00:56:16,450
I like that.

1541
00:56:16,450 --> 00:56:17,010
I know that.

1542
00:56:17,190 --> 00:56:18,650
I think that's a good one, too, to

1543
00:56:18,650 --> 00:56:19,470
be honest about it.

1544
00:56:20,170 --> 00:56:20,690
Centering.

1545
00:56:22,830 --> 00:56:23,870
Safe space.

1546
00:56:24,250 --> 00:56:26,110
Oh, we can't get rid of that.

1547
00:56:26,530 --> 00:56:30,150
Holding space and body shaming.

1548
00:56:31,390 --> 00:56:32,970
Well, what's left for them?

1549
00:56:34,050 --> 00:56:35,570
Well, we got more.

1550
00:56:35,930 --> 00:56:37,430
That's just one category.

1551
00:56:37,430 --> 00:56:39,970
Then we move to seminar room language, which

1552
00:56:39,970 --> 00:56:43,030
is the language that says I'm smarter than

1553
00:56:43,030 --> 00:56:47,010
you and concerned about important issues that you

1554
00:56:47,010 --> 00:56:47,610
aren't.

1555
00:56:49,270 --> 00:56:52,310
And we have these are phrases more than

1556
00:56:52,310 --> 00:56:54,610
they are just words, but we have subverting

1557
00:56:54,610 --> 00:56:55,330
norms.

1558
00:56:56,690 --> 00:56:58,030
I have never heard that.

1559
00:56:58,350 --> 00:56:59,650
Well, we're not in those boardrooms.

1560
00:57:00,010 --> 00:57:02,210
So systems of oppression.

1561
00:57:02,690 --> 00:57:04,910
Yeah, that's a good critical theory.

1562
00:57:07,250 --> 00:57:08,450
Cultural appropriation.

1563
00:57:08,750 --> 00:57:09,650
Big one.

1564
00:57:09,770 --> 00:57:11,450
Post post modernism.

1565
00:57:11,450 --> 00:57:12,110
Yeah.

1566
00:57:13,070 --> 00:57:14,190
Overton window.

1567
00:57:16,190 --> 00:57:17,810
What is the over?

1568
00:57:17,830 --> 00:57:20,030
I keep forgetting what the Overton window is.

1569
00:57:20,370 --> 00:57:23,150
Well, I think we should probably go to

1570
00:57:23,150 --> 00:57:26,090
our favorite chat bot and ask our chat

1571
00:57:26,090 --> 00:57:28,790
bot to explain to us in very certain

1572
00:57:28,790 --> 00:57:29,250
terms.

1573
00:57:29,890 --> 00:57:31,710
What is the Overton window?

1574
00:57:33,130 --> 00:57:34,810
Oh, the Overton window.

1575
00:57:35,050 --> 00:57:37,330
It's the range of ideas the public considers

1576
00:57:37,330 --> 00:57:38,990
acceptable at a given time.

1577
00:57:38,990 --> 00:57:41,650
Like what's OK to talk about without sounding

1578
00:57:41,650 --> 00:57:42,650
totally out there?

1579
00:57:42,970 --> 00:57:46,090
It shifts as society's values or political climate

1580
00:57:46,090 --> 00:57:46,530
change.

1581
00:57:47,090 --> 00:57:48,510
Think of it as a window of normal

1582
00:57:48,510 --> 00:57:51,570
that moves left, right or wider based on

1583
00:57:51,570 --> 00:57:52,810
what people are ready to hear.

1584
00:57:53,330 --> 00:57:56,210
For example, ideas once seen as fringe like

1585
00:57:56,210 --> 00:57:58,430
nervous health care can slide into the window

1586
00:57:58,430 --> 00:57:59,670
as attitudes evolve.

1587
00:58:00,030 --> 00:58:02,530
It's named after Joseph Overton, who came up

1588
00:58:02,530 --> 00:58:05,030
with the concept to explain what policymakers can

1589
00:58:05,030 --> 00:58:06,110
realistically push.

1590
00:58:06,110 --> 00:58:08,210
Pretty neat way to think about what's in

1591
00:58:08,210 --> 00:58:09,530
or out in public discourse.

1592
00:58:09,890 --> 00:58:10,770
Want me to dive deeper?

1593
00:58:11,450 --> 00:58:11,790
Heck no.

1594
00:58:11,990 --> 00:58:13,610
No, no, no.

1595
00:58:13,850 --> 00:58:14,730
Of course not.

1596
00:58:15,210 --> 00:58:16,470
I don't want you to dive deeper.

1597
00:58:16,650 --> 00:58:17,010
What is this?

1598
00:58:17,110 --> 00:58:18,390
That should be outlawed.

1599
00:58:18,630 --> 00:58:19,710
Let's dive in.

1600
00:58:20,130 --> 00:58:20,650
Dive deeper.

1601
00:58:20,930 --> 00:58:22,530
That's not on the list, but you're right.

1602
00:58:22,670 --> 00:58:23,230
Dive in.

1603
00:58:23,330 --> 00:58:23,870
Dive deeper.

1604
00:58:23,990 --> 00:58:24,590
Deep dive.

1605
00:58:24,830 --> 00:58:25,950
That needs to go.

1606
00:58:27,090 --> 00:58:29,090
And the last on the seminar room language

1607
00:58:29,090 --> 00:58:35,090
is heuristic and existential threat to anything.

1608
00:58:35,090 --> 00:58:36,710
They will have nothing left.

1609
00:58:37,310 --> 00:58:38,370
Well, wait a minute.

1610
00:58:38,450 --> 00:58:39,550
There's more categories.

1611
00:58:39,910 --> 00:58:40,690
I am a Democrat.

1612
00:58:41,950 --> 00:58:42,690
Thank you.

1613
00:58:45,030 --> 00:58:45,910
Organizer jargon.

1614
00:58:46,370 --> 00:58:50,290
These words say we are beholden to groups,

1615
00:58:50,470 --> 00:58:51,490
not individuals.

1616
00:58:51,790 --> 00:58:53,150
People have no agency.

1617
00:58:54,130 --> 00:58:54,370
Agency.

1618
00:58:54,550 --> 00:58:56,810
This is a common problem with the Democrats,

1619
00:58:56,930 --> 00:58:58,510
which is you're not an individual.

1620
00:58:58,810 --> 00:58:59,770
Yeah, you're part of the group.

1621
00:58:59,870 --> 00:59:00,690
Hey, hey, ho, ho.

1622
00:59:00,830 --> 00:59:01,230
Mic check.

1623
00:59:01,350 --> 00:59:01,850
Mic check.

1624
00:59:03,750 --> 00:59:04,830
Radical transparency.

1625
00:59:06,530 --> 00:59:08,270
Small d democracy.

1626
00:59:11,250 --> 00:59:14,110
So you're in other words, you're not supposed

1627
00:59:14,110 --> 00:59:16,430
to say, yes, well, that's like small d

1628
00:59:16,430 --> 00:59:17,010
democracy.

1629
00:59:17,490 --> 00:59:20,370
Is this group run by run by the

1630
00:59:20,370 --> 00:59:21,370
Trump organization?

1631
00:59:21,950 --> 00:59:23,930
It's a political bunch of Clinton net.

1632
00:59:24,030 --> 00:59:24,550
Oh, really?

1633
00:59:24,910 --> 00:59:25,410
Clintonistas.

1634
00:59:25,610 --> 00:59:25,730
Yeah.

1635
00:59:25,830 --> 00:59:26,370
Interesting.

1636
00:59:26,970 --> 00:59:28,710
Barriers to participation.

1637
00:59:29,050 --> 00:59:31,730
I always use barriers to the sales.

1638
00:59:32,370 --> 00:59:34,570
Yeah, that I could.

1639
00:59:34,890 --> 00:59:36,150
Stakeholders is no good.

1640
00:59:36,310 --> 00:59:36,710
No good.

1641
00:59:36,890 --> 00:59:37,850
No, can't do that.

1642
00:59:38,190 --> 00:59:42,550
The unhoused food insecurity.

1643
00:59:43,030 --> 00:59:47,990
Man, housing insecurity and person who immigrated.

1644
00:59:48,170 --> 00:59:50,190
Do they have birthing persons on this thing

1645
00:59:50,190 --> 00:59:50,630
somewhere?

1646
00:59:50,850 --> 00:59:51,790
Yeah, it's coming.

1647
00:59:55,110 --> 00:59:57,750
They don't have they have personally immigrated.

1648
00:59:57,830 --> 01:00:01,450
They have housing, unhoused and other stuff comes

1649
01:00:01,450 --> 01:00:01,730
up.

1650
01:00:01,850 --> 01:00:04,430
This is the next one is gender orientation

1651
01:00:04,430 --> 01:00:05,370
correctness.

1652
01:00:05,990 --> 01:00:09,090
They say your views are or traditional on

1653
01:00:09,090 --> 01:00:11,850
gender and gender roles are at best quaint.

1654
01:00:12,790 --> 01:00:16,190
Birthing person, inseminated person.

1655
01:00:17,270 --> 01:00:18,290
Hold on.

1656
01:00:18,710 --> 01:00:20,270
I think that should stay.

1657
01:00:20,410 --> 01:00:22,130
I like inseminated person.

1658
01:00:22,950 --> 01:00:24,550
Yeah, it also applies to gay guys.

1659
01:00:26,690 --> 01:00:28,010
Pregnant people.

1660
01:00:28,850 --> 01:00:29,030
Yeah.

1661
01:00:29,750 --> 01:00:30,930
Chest feeding.

1662
01:00:32,630 --> 01:00:34,190
Oh, my Lord.

1663
01:00:35,190 --> 01:00:35,870
Cisgender.

1664
01:00:36,410 --> 01:00:36,750
Yeah.

1665
01:00:37,350 --> 01:00:38,390
Dead naming.

1666
01:00:38,670 --> 01:00:39,730
It's everything.

1667
01:00:40,750 --> 01:00:41,430
Heteronormative.

1668
01:00:41,550 --> 01:00:41,850
You're right.

1669
01:00:41,890 --> 01:00:43,290
The Democrats have nothing to say.

1670
01:00:43,950 --> 01:00:50,630
Heteronormative, patriarchy and LGBTQIA plus.

1671
01:00:51,490 --> 01:00:52,210
Gotta go.

1672
01:00:52,490 --> 01:00:54,450
They really will have nothing left.

1673
01:00:55,090 --> 01:00:56,690
Now, what they didn't put on this list

1674
01:00:56,690 --> 01:00:58,530
is another one missing front hole.

1675
01:00:59,790 --> 01:01:01,610
They did not put that on the list.

1676
01:01:01,870 --> 01:01:02,810
No, it's not on the list.

1677
01:01:03,970 --> 01:01:04,750
I'm with you.

1678
01:01:04,850 --> 01:01:06,430
I think that should be on the list.

1679
01:01:06,650 --> 01:01:06,990
Wow.

1680
01:01:08,130 --> 01:01:09,650
And then we move to the next one.

1681
01:01:09,810 --> 01:01:10,590
I can go.

1682
01:01:10,690 --> 01:01:12,290
I'm like, this is ending soon.

1683
01:01:12,350 --> 01:01:15,070
This is the shifting language of racial constructs

1684
01:01:15,070 --> 01:01:15,550
is next.

1685
01:01:15,710 --> 01:01:16,070
Yes.

1686
01:01:17,070 --> 01:01:17,790
Latin X.

1687
01:01:19,410 --> 01:01:21,090
African-American community.

1688
01:01:23,110 --> 01:01:24,250
Well, you got, you know.

1689
01:01:24,710 --> 01:01:25,370
Am I there?

1690
01:01:25,470 --> 01:01:26,110
Am I getting there?

1691
01:01:26,250 --> 01:01:26,870
You know, it's funny.

1692
01:01:26,870 --> 01:01:29,970
Somebody on Fox called it Latin, Latin.

1693
01:01:31,850 --> 01:01:32,290
Latinx.

1694
01:01:32,570 --> 01:01:33,010
Latinx.

1695
01:01:33,190 --> 01:01:33,630
Latinx.

1696
01:01:34,310 --> 01:01:34,750
Okay.

1697
01:01:35,170 --> 01:01:36,510
But you got that right.

1698
01:01:36,710 --> 01:01:36,850
Yeah.

1699
01:01:37,010 --> 01:01:38,270
Latinx is number one.

1700
01:01:38,370 --> 01:01:39,070
Yeah, of course.

1701
01:01:39,270 --> 01:01:39,790
It's stupid.

1702
01:01:40,030 --> 01:01:41,490
Number two is BIPOC.

1703
01:01:41,870 --> 01:01:42,790
Oh, yes.

1704
01:01:42,890 --> 01:01:43,730
Get rid of that one.

1705
01:01:44,150 --> 01:01:44,590
BIPOC.

1706
01:01:47,110 --> 01:01:47,550
Allyship.

1707
01:01:47,990 --> 01:01:51,470
And here's the whopper that they're never going

1708
01:01:51,470 --> 01:01:53,470
to get rid of intersectionality.

1709
01:01:53,630 --> 01:01:54,330
No, no.

1710
01:01:54,330 --> 01:01:57,330
So is anyone listening to this group?

1711
01:01:59,110 --> 01:02:00,890
Well, it got some play on the right

1712
01:02:00,890 --> 01:02:01,510
wing media.

1713
01:02:01,750 --> 01:02:02,710
Well, of course it did.

1714
01:02:02,870 --> 01:02:03,910
Of course it did.

1715
01:02:04,670 --> 01:02:07,470
This the last list is explaining away crime.

1716
01:02:08,610 --> 01:02:09,090
Okay.

1717
01:02:09,250 --> 01:02:10,550
Let me guess.

1718
01:02:10,630 --> 01:02:11,110
Let me guess.

1719
01:02:12,590 --> 01:02:13,770
Defund the police.

1720
01:02:18,050 --> 01:02:19,510
What else would be in there?

1721
01:02:20,510 --> 01:02:21,130
I don't know.

1722
01:02:21,170 --> 01:02:21,630
I'm interested.

1723
01:02:21,870 --> 01:02:22,650
Defund the police.

1724
01:02:23,210 --> 01:02:26,550
Defund the police is not on here because

1725
01:02:26,550 --> 01:02:30,150
it's about the buzz terms that are used

1726
01:02:30,150 --> 01:02:30,850
like thus.

1727
01:02:31,010 --> 01:02:33,110
There's only four words or four phrases.

1728
01:02:34,250 --> 01:02:35,290
Justice involved.

1729
01:02:37,190 --> 01:02:38,990
In other words, these are phrases you use

1730
01:02:38,990 --> 01:02:41,870
to not say, you know, criminal.

1731
01:02:42,130 --> 01:02:43,390
You don't want to say the word criminal.

1732
01:02:44,390 --> 01:02:46,710
Is a justice involved person.

1733
01:02:47,990 --> 01:02:48,610
Yes, I got it.

1734
01:02:48,750 --> 01:02:48,930
Okay.

1735
01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:51,410
This is an interesting one because I'd never

1736
01:02:51,410 --> 01:02:54,850
heard anyone using it, but it's, but carceration.

1737
01:02:55,810 --> 01:02:58,730
Carceration, not incarceration, but carceration.

1738
01:02:59,030 --> 01:03:03,450
No, there's carceration and there's incarcerated people.

1739
01:03:07,050 --> 01:03:11,370
And then the last one is involuntary confinement.

1740
01:03:12,090 --> 01:03:13,490
I eat in jail.

1741
01:03:14,270 --> 01:03:15,370
I guess.

1742
01:03:15,990 --> 01:03:17,150
Well, in jail.

1743
01:03:17,150 --> 01:03:19,310
I hope they listen to it.

1744
01:03:19,390 --> 01:03:20,310
This is a good start.

1745
01:03:20,670 --> 01:03:22,930
Words matter, you know, start with this.

1746
01:03:23,070 --> 01:03:24,490
We'll not get rid of one of these

1747
01:03:24,490 --> 01:03:24,910
terms.

1748
01:03:25,430 --> 01:03:27,730
Well, keep that list handy so we can

1749
01:03:27,730 --> 01:03:28,330
flag them.

1750
01:03:29,690 --> 01:03:32,330
And we can call out violations of the

1751
01:03:32,330 --> 01:03:35,410
third way list or whatever it is.

1752
01:03:35,590 --> 01:03:38,890
Well, the Democrats are way beyond this.

1753
01:03:39,230 --> 01:03:41,810
Meanwhile, things are finally coming to a head.

1754
01:03:42,910 --> 01:03:48,230
Strangely enough, in Canada, as there's a clash

1755
01:03:48,230 --> 01:03:52,070
now, there's a clash between the Qs and

1756
01:03:52,070 --> 01:03:53,430
the LGBs.

1757
01:03:53,670 --> 01:03:55,290
I think it's the LGBs, but maybe there's

1758
01:03:55,290 --> 01:03:56,070
some Ts in there.

1759
01:03:56,090 --> 01:03:56,610
It's a clash.

1760
01:03:56,650 --> 01:03:58,770
It's a clash because now we have conflicting

1761
01:03:58,770 --> 01:03:59,350
agendas.

1762
01:04:03,930 --> 01:04:05,810
Just so you couldn't hear it, the queers

1763
01:04:05,810 --> 01:04:07,210
for Palestine in Ottawa.

1764
01:04:07,330 --> 01:04:08,410
That's who's doing this.

1765
01:04:11,810 --> 01:04:16,570
Annual pride parade Sunday afternoon, bringing the festivities

1766
01:04:16,570 --> 01:04:17,350
to a halt.

1767
01:04:17,650 --> 01:04:20,630
We had staged a disruption of the parade

1768
01:04:20,630 --> 01:04:23,890
to say our demands to both Capital Pride's

1769
01:04:23,890 --> 01:04:26,850
executive director and board of directors and to

1770
01:04:26,850 --> 01:04:27,230
the mayor.

1771
01:04:27,410 --> 01:04:29,510
We were looking for apologies from the mayor

1772
01:04:29,510 --> 01:04:33,070
in particular for boycotting last year and for

1773
01:04:33,070 --> 01:04:37,890
encouraging other powerful institutions to boycott the parade.

1774
01:04:39,070 --> 01:04:41,570
The group halted the parade to demand the

1775
01:04:41,570 --> 01:04:44,050
apology from not only the mayor, Mark Sutcliffe,

1776
01:04:44,270 --> 01:04:47,230
but also other organizations that pulled out of

1777
01:04:47,230 --> 01:04:50,110
the Capital Pride events last year when organizers

1778
01:04:50,110 --> 01:04:52,770
issued a statement condemning Israel.

1779
01:04:53,050 --> 01:04:55,030
The mayor said he would not come up

1780
01:04:55,030 --> 01:04:55,850
and talk to us.

1781
01:04:56,910 --> 01:04:59,650
And even when communicated that the parade would

1782
01:04:59,650 --> 01:05:02,650
then disperse if we didn't move, he still

1783
01:05:02,650 --> 01:05:04,290
refused to come up and talk to us.

1784
01:05:04,290 --> 01:05:06,530
In a statement, Ottawa's mayor said in part,

1785
01:05:07,010 --> 01:05:09,490
it's deeply regrettable that a group of activists

1786
01:05:09,490 --> 01:05:12,850
chose to block the parade, ultimately leading Capital

1787
01:05:12,850 --> 01:05:14,850
Pride officials to cancel the event.

1788
01:05:15,410 --> 01:05:17,090
My heart goes out to the many people

1789
01:05:17,090 --> 01:05:18,970
in our city who were deprived of the

1790
01:05:18,970 --> 01:05:22,770
opportunity to participate in this celebration of joy,

1791
01:05:23,270 --> 01:05:24,490
resilience, and community.

1792
01:05:24,890 --> 01:05:26,110
I am sad I didn't get to march,

1793
01:05:26,190 --> 01:05:27,930
but I'm definitely way sadder for the people

1794
01:05:27,930 --> 01:05:30,290
who are experiencing a lot of hardship over

1795
01:05:30,290 --> 01:05:30,890
in Palestine.

1796
01:05:31,450 --> 01:05:32,470
And this is a way to get a

1797
01:05:32,470 --> 01:05:33,310
really good message out.

1798
01:05:33,310 --> 01:05:34,710
Yeah, really good message.

1799
01:05:34,850 --> 01:05:37,250
So this queers against the LGBTs is a

1800
01:05:37,250 --> 01:05:37,550
problem.

1801
01:05:40,310 --> 01:05:40,570
Queers.

1802
01:05:41,370 --> 01:05:42,590
Queers for Palestine.

1803
01:05:42,930 --> 01:05:45,070
Hey, maybe we should roll right into the

1804
01:05:45,070 --> 01:05:48,650
executive order on flag burning because I got

1805
01:05:48,650 --> 01:05:49,190
an email.

1806
01:05:49,990 --> 01:05:51,270
I get these a lot.

1807
01:05:53,230 --> 01:05:54,330
Shall I do the voice?

1808
01:05:55,470 --> 01:05:56,990
Oh, is it one of those guys?

1809
01:05:57,290 --> 01:05:58,110
It's the guy.

1810
01:05:58,290 --> 01:05:58,970
It's that guy.

1811
01:05:59,070 --> 01:06:00,230
Yeah, it's Spencer, of course.

1812
01:06:00,250 --> 01:06:01,530
Yeah, I want you to do that guy's

1813
01:06:01,530 --> 01:06:01,950
voice.

1814
01:06:02,670 --> 01:06:05,450
You two are just Trump is right about

1815
01:06:05,450 --> 01:06:06,930
everything, guys.

1816
01:06:07,310 --> 01:06:10,310
You're anti-war until it's a Trump war.

1817
01:06:10,870 --> 01:06:12,750
I can't wait to hear you defend him

1818
01:06:12,750 --> 01:06:15,210
for executive order banning flag burning.

1819
01:06:15,630 --> 01:06:17,670
I'm sure you know it's covered under free

1820
01:06:17,670 --> 01:06:19,850
speech, but Trump is right again.

1821
01:06:19,910 --> 01:06:22,510
I'm sure you've got the other kind of

1822
01:06:22,510 --> 01:06:23,050
TDS.

1823
01:06:24,710 --> 01:06:26,930
Oh, well, that brings me a couple of

1824
01:06:26,930 --> 01:06:30,110
clips from one from Hillary Clinton and Joe

1825
01:06:30,110 --> 01:06:30,550
Biden.

1826
01:06:30,550 --> 01:06:33,610
Well, first, I replied to him, of course.

1827
01:06:33,730 --> 01:06:35,290
I said, I'm sorry, what war did he

1828
01:06:35,290 --> 01:06:35,690
start?

1829
01:06:36,210 --> 01:06:37,730
And where's the executive order?

1830
01:06:38,550 --> 01:06:40,250
And he said, well, the bombing in Iran,

1831
01:06:40,330 --> 01:06:44,750
which was done to please Israel, was an

1832
01:06:44,750 --> 01:06:45,590
act of war.

1833
01:06:45,910 --> 01:06:47,750
It didn't escalate into a bigger war.

1834
01:06:47,810 --> 01:06:48,970
You got me there.

1835
01:06:49,770 --> 01:06:52,510
But don't think those actions don't radicalize people

1836
01:06:52,510 --> 01:06:53,170
in the Middle East.

1837
01:06:53,210 --> 01:06:53,810
It's silly.

1838
01:06:54,250 --> 01:06:55,890
And do you really think it was about

1839
01:06:55,890 --> 01:06:57,430
Iran not having nukes?

1840
01:06:57,430 --> 01:06:58,370
I said, no.

1841
01:06:58,490 --> 01:07:00,290
In fact, if you had listened to what

1842
01:07:00,290 --> 01:07:02,430
we said, I thought it was about bricks

1843
01:07:02,430 --> 01:07:03,530
in China, honestly.

1844
01:07:04,230 --> 01:07:05,630
Yeah, that's exactly true.

1845
01:07:07,230 --> 01:07:09,550
That's what your thesis was.

1846
01:07:09,710 --> 01:07:11,710
So this guy's completely, he's not listening.

1847
01:07:11,990 --> 01:07:13,090
No, of course not.

1848
01:07:13,230 --> 01:07:15,390
There's a gang out there, you know, and

1849
01:07:15,390 --> 01:07:16,710
it goes kind of like this.

1850
01:07:16,990 --> 01:07:19,050
You've lost the plot, Curry.

1851
01:07:20,890 --> 01:07:23,530
Dvorak is the same, but you've lost the

1852
01:07:23,530 --> 01:07:23,990
plot.

1853
01:07:25,210 --> 01:07:26,930
Yes, it's probably true.

1854
01:07:26,930 --> 01:07:28,130
At least they like me more.

1855
01:07:28,470 --> 01:07:30,790
I did read the executive order.

1856
01:07:30,930 --> 01:07:32,190
So let's play your clip so that we

1857
01:07:32,190 --> 01:07:33,250
can just play this.

1858
01:07:33,370 --> 01:07:34,830
I just want this is, I think, good

1859
01:07:34,830 --> 01:07:35,290
to know.

1860
01:07:35,490 --> 01:07:37,190
This is Hillary in 2006.

1861
01:07:37,510 --> 01:07:40,330
And she's talking about flag burning Hillary Clinton.

1862
01:07:41,230 --> 01:07:44,010
So I hope, Mr. President, that we can

1863
01:07:44,010 --> 01:07:46,830
pass a law that criminalizes flag burning and

1864
01:07:46,830 --> 01:07:47,470
desecration.

1865
01:07:47,930 --> 01:07:53,050
I agree that this burning, this desecration that

1866
01:07:53,050 --> 01:07:56,510
can happen to our flag is something that

1867
01:07:56,510 --> 01:07:59,010
people have a right to ask this body

1868
01:07:59,010 --> 01:08:00,990
to try to prohibit and prevent.

1869
01:08:01,730 --> 01:08:03,710
Yeah, of course, this body.

1870
01:08:03,870 --> 01:08:04,290
That's Hillary.

1871
01:08:05,410 --> 01:08:08,190
Let's go back another decade to Joe Biden

1872
01:08:08,190 --> 01:08:09,150
back in the 90s.

1873
01:08:09,190 --> 01:08:10,290
And he had this to say.

1874
01:08:10,670 --> 01:08:13,170
In my view, it doesn't matter why you

1875
01:08:13,170 --> 01:08:16,170
burn or mutilate or trample on the flag.

1876
01:08:16,290 --> 01:08:18,609
You should not do it.

1877
01:08:18,770 --> 01:08:20,830
What holds us together as a nation, Mr.

1878
01:08:20,950 --> 01:08:23,910
President, is not a common language, although I

1879
01:08:23,910 --> 01:08:25,130
think that is necessary.

1880
01:08:25,370 --> 01:08:26,850
It is the national symbol.

1881
01:08:27,529 --> 01:08:30,890
The reason it is worth preserving is because

1882
01:08:30,890 --> 01:08:34,109
it unifies this diverse nation.

1883
01:08:34,330 --> 01:08:36,670
The flag's unique place in our national life

1884
01:08:36,670 --> 01:08:39,450
means that we should preserve it against all

1885
01:08:39,450 --> 01:08:41,910
manner of destruction.

1886
01:08:42,290 --> 01:08:44,950
A statute making it unlawful to burn, mutilate

1887
01:08:44,950 --> 01:08:47,029
or trample upon any flag of the United

1888
01:08:47,029 --> 01:08:48,189
States, period.

1889
01:08:49,229 --> 01:08:51,630
It doesn't matter who burns or mutilates or

1890
01:08:51,630 --> 01:08:52,609
tramples the flag.

1891
01:08:52,609 --> 01:08:54,450
And it doesn't matter why.

1892
01:08:55,170 --> 01:08:57,689
Under my proposal, it will be unlawful to

1893
01:08:57,689 --> 01:08:58,950
do the flag harm.

1894
01:08:59,069 --> 01:09:01,290
No ifs, ands or buts.

1895
01:09:01,390 --> 01:09:04,630
Tell everyone they can't burn the flag.

1896
01:09:04,930 --> 01:09:06,649
Now, what do you think this is really

1897
01:09:06,649 --> 01:09:08,910
about, including Trump?

1898
01:09:09,229 --> 01:09:15,189
Why do these presidential people, Hillary not being

1899
01:09:15,189 --> 01:09:20,830
a president, but a president adjacent person, with

1900
01:09:20,830 --> 01:09:21,270
a front hole?

1901
01:09:22,689 --> 01:09:25,830
What do you think that the message really

1902
01:09:25,830 --> 01:09:26,390
is?

1903
01:09:26,689 --> 01:09:29,010
Why do they make a big deal out

1904
01:09:29,010 --> 01:09:29,430
of this?

1905
01:09:30,910 --> 01:09:33,270
I don't know, to be honest about it.

1906
01:09:33,350 --> 01:09:34,970
Why necessarily?

1907
01:09:35,170 --> 01:09:37,710
Unless it's to exhibit some form of patriotism,

1908
01:09:37,790 --> 01:09:39,569
because the flag is symbolic.

1909
01:09:41,370 --> 01:09:41,710
Right.

1910
01:09:41,830 --> 01:09:44,670
So it's about patriotism.

1911
01:09:46,510 --> 01:09:49,010
Now, my stance, and I think you'll agree

1912
01:09:49,010 --> 01:09:51,010
with me, you want to burn the flag,

1913
01:09:51,109 --> 01:09:52,390
you can wear the flag.

1914
01:09:52,390 --> 01:09:54,110
There's been lawsuits about that too.

1915
01:09:54,210 --> 01:09:56,510
Abbie Hoffman, legend.

1916
01:09:56,670 --> 01:09:57,610
Wow, there's a name.

1917
01:09:57,870 --> 01:10:00,050
Does anyone remember Abbie Hoffman's Steal This Book?

1918
01:10:00,210 --> 01:10:01,110
Probably not.

1919
01:10:01,470 --> 01:10:02,490
Nobody does, boomer.

1920
01:10:02,770 --> 01:10:04,710
That's a true boomer moment.

1921
01:10:04,850 --> 01:10:06,510
I read that when I was probably 10.

1922
01:10:06,910 --> 01:10:07,890
Steal this book.

1923
01:10:08,030 --> 01:10:08,870
It's a great book.

1924
01:10:09,110 --> 01:10:11,310
I think I stole it from the American

1925
01:10:11,310 --> 01:10:12,850
Women's Library in Amsterdam.

1926
01:10:14,510 --> 01:10:18,290
So burning anything like that is obviously falls

1927
01:10:18,290 --> 01:10:21,790
under your freedom to express yourself.

1928
01:10:21,790 --> 01:10:23,670
And although I don't like it, it's like,

1929
01:10:24,010 --> 01:10:24,370
fine, whatever.

1930
01:10:24,490 --> 01:10:26,750
But that's not what the executive order says.

1931
01:10:27,170 --> 01:10:30,430
It's very clear what this is about.

1932
01:10:32,610 --> 01:10:36,530
Although it's squarmy, swarmy, squirmy, whatever you want

1933
01:10:36,530 --> 01:10:36,970
to call it.

1934
01:10:37,610 --> 01:10:38,210
Smarmy.

1935
01:10:38,370 --> 01:10:39,410
Smarmy, there you go.

1936
01:10:40,110 --> 01:10:43,330
Notwithstanding the Supreme Court's rulings on First Amendment

1937
01:10:43,330 --> 01:10:48,350
protections, which is burning the flag, the court

1938
01:10:48,350 --> 01:10:52,050
has never held that American flag desecration conducted

1939
01:10:52,050 --> 01:10:54,230
in a manner that is likely to incite

1940
01:10:54,230 --> 01:10:57,530
imminent lawless action, or that is an action

1941
01:10:57,530 --> 01:11:01,470
amounting to fighting words, is constitutionally protected.

1942
01:11:02,450 --> 01:11:04,390
So what the president, and this is just

1943
01:11:04,390 --> 01:11:06,750
a minor part of the executive order, what

1944
01:11:06,750 --> 01:11:08,710
he's trying to say here is, well, if

1945
01:11:08,710 --> 01:11:10,750
you burn a flag and it causes a

1946
01:11:10,750 --> 01:11:13,090
riot, or there's a riot and you're burning

1947
01:11:13,090 --> 01:11:15,670
a flag, I think if you're inciting a

1948
01:11:15,670 --> 01:11:17,470
riot, no matter what, whether you burn a

1949
01:11:17,470 --> 01:11:20,250
flag or not, that's a problem.

1950
01:11:20,850 --> 01:11:24,430
But what this is really about is illegal

1951
01:11:24,430 --> 01:11:26,590
immigrants burning the American flag.

1952
01:11:27,910 --> 01:11:33,470
Or even visa holders who are here visiting,

1953
01:11:34,150 --> 01:11:35,830
visa, visit, visiting.

1954
01:11:36,910 --> 01:11:38,710
And I'm on board with that.

1955
01:11:39,270 --> 01:11:40,830
If you want to come here and you

1956
01:11:40,830 --> 01:11:42,130
want to work here and you want to

1957
01:11:42,130 --> 01:11:45,170
be a part of our society, then don't

1958
01:11:45,170 --> 01:11:46,150
go burning our flag.

1959
01:11:46,910 --> 01:11:48,170
I'm okay with that.

1960
01:11:49,330 --> 01:11:53,170
And I'm not, you know, that to me

1961
01:11:53,170 --> 01:11:54,290
is like, get out.

1962
01:11:54,830 --> 01:11:55,970
Just get out.

1963
01:11:56,070 --> 01:11:58,090
If you don't care about us, about our

1964
01:11:58,090 --> 01:11:59,830
flag and what it stands for, then get

1965
01:11:59,830 --> 01:12:00,090
out.

1966
01:12:00,610 --> 01:12:02,450
But in general, if you want to burn

1967
01:12:02,450 --> 01:12:04,090
a flag, okay, you can be a douchebag.

1968
01:12:04,410 --> 01:12:05,470
People burn themselves.

1969
01:12:05,950 --> 01:12:06,630
It's fine too.

1970
01:12:06,750 --> 01:12:08,930
Well, you know, it's a hate crime and

1971
01:12:08,930 --> 01:12:11,770
illegal to burn a gay pride flag.

1972
01:12:11,890 --> 01:12:12,410
Is it really?

1973
01:12:12,930 --> 01:12:13,410
Yes.

1974
01:12:13,410 --> 01:12:14,430
Is that a hate crime?

1975
01:12:14,770 --> 01:12:15,270
Yeah.

1976
01:12:16,850 --> 01:12:18,270
Well, I didn't know that.

1977
01:12:18,350 --> 01:12:19,250
But you can burn the American flag.

1978
01:12:19,290 --> 01:12:20,730
What is a hate crime exactly?

1979
01:12:21,530 --> 01:12:25,450
It's just exhibiting some sort of targeted hatred

1980
01:12:25,450 --> 01:12:27,750
toward a group, a specific group that can

1981
01:12:27,750 --> 01:12:31,510
be identified as a minority.

1982
01:12:31,950 --> 01:12:34,110
But what this comes, this comes down to

1983
01:12:34,110 --> 01:12:37,750
the same thing, you know, yelling fire in

1984
01:12:37,750 --> 01:12:38,610
a crowded theater.

1985
01:12:39,370 --> 01:12:41,730
You are in fact allowed to yell fire

1986
01:12:41,730 --> 01:12:42,930
in a crowded theater.

1987
01:12:43,410 --> 01:12:45,870
If you do that with intent to cause

1988
01:12:45,870 --> 01:12:48,270
a stampede and people die, it's a different

1989
01:12:48,270 --> 01:12:48,770
story.

1990
01:12:49,590 --> 01:12:52,630
That's one of the most, between that and

1991
01:12:52,630 --> 01:12:55,530
the so-called separation clause, the non-existent

1992
01:12:55,530 --> 01:12:56,390
separation clause.

1993
01:12:56,470 --> 01:12:58,770
Those are two of the biggest lies about

1994
01:12:58,770 --> 01:13:00,230
the U.S. Constitution.

1995
01:13:02,150 --> 01:13:03,590
Like, oh, you can't yell fire in a

1996
01:13:03,590 --> 01:13:04,110
crowded theater.

1997
01:13:04,330 --> 01:13:04,870
Yeah, you can.

1998
01:13:05,390 --> 01:13:06,070
Sure you can.

1999
01:13:06,170 --> 01:13:07,530
But if you do it with the intent

2000
01:13:07,530 --> 01:13:10,110
to hurt people with a, with a stampede

2001
01:13:10,110 --> 01:13:11,850
and someone gets hurt, then you got a

2002
01:13:11,850 --> 01:13:12,150
problem.

2003
01:13:13,530 --> 01:13:17,890
And that concludes our constitutional lesson for today.

2004
01:13:18,570 --> 01:13:18,930
For today.

2005
01:13:19,090 --> 01:13:20,750
I'm glad I got the Hillary thing in

2006
01:13:20,750 --> 01:13:21,590
there, that's for sure.

2007
01:13:22,270 --> 01:13:24,870
That concludes our little pitch for today, children.

2008
01:13:25,610 --> 01:13:27,770
But I'm not too worried about anyone caring

2009
01:13:27,770 --> 01:13:29,730
because they don't even know what half a

2010
01:13:29,730 --> 01:13:30,230
dozen is.

2011
01:13:30,450 --> 01:13:32,550
So it's probably just going over everybody.

2012
01:13:32,550 --> 01:13:33,610
And they can't tell the months.

2013
01:13:33,910 --> 01:13:35,950
That's my favorite, new favorite.

2014
01:13:38,290 --> 01:13:41,530
January, December, June, what's next?

2015
01:13:41,670 --> 01:13:42,950
I have a February.

2016
01:13:42,950 --> 01:13:45,490
I remember when I was probably six.

2017
01:13:46,810 --> 01:13:48,650
And I was, my mom was kind of

2018
01:13:48,650 --> 01:13:49,370
mean in this.

2019
01:13:49,530 --> 01:13:51,130
She says, do you know the months?

2020
01:13:51,690 --> 01:13:54,250
And I was, I was always listening to

2021
01:13:54,250 --> 01:13:55,190
records at home.

2022
01:13:55,190 --> 01:13:57,250
And, you know, and I forget what the

2023
01:13:57,250 --> 01:13:58,270
name of the song is.

2024
01:13:59,550 --> 01:14:02,190
Maybe it's, maybe it's the Andrew Sisters.

2025
01:14:02,690 --> 01:14:04,630
But at a certain point he goes, January,

2026
01:14:05,010 --> 01:14:06,850
February, June and July.

2027
01:14:07,530 --> 01:14:09,010
Is that Sisters, maybe?

2028
01:14:09,770 --> 01:14:10,030
Sisters.

2029
01:14:10,390 --> 01:14:11,710
It was somebody like that.

2030
01:14:12,410 --> 01:14:15,650
So I say to my mom, January, February,

2031
01:14:15,890 --> 01:14:16,530
June and July.

2032
01:14:16,670 --> 01:14:20,170
And she went, you better learn your months.

2033
01:14:20,510 --> 01:14:22,510
You're about to go into, you're about to

2034
01:14:22,510 --> 01:14:24,330
be seven years old and you don't know

2035
01:14:24,330 --> 01:14:25,010
your months.

2036
01:14:25,390 --> 01:14:27,370
And I remember like, God, I was so

2037
01:14:27,370 --> 01:14:27,810
scared.

2038
01:14:28,590 --> 01:14:29,870
And I was studying the months and I

2039
01:14:29,870 --> 01:14:30,090
came back.

2040
01:14:30,130 --> 01:14:31,050
Mom, I know him, I know him, I

2041
01:14:31,050 --> 01:14:31,290
know him.

2042
01:14:31,350 --> 01:14:32,270
I really, I know him, I do.

2043
01:14:32,370 --> 01:14:33,810
I was just, it was just a song.

2044
01:14:33,870 --> 01:14:35,090
The song got me confused, mom.

2045
01:14:36,230 --> 01:14:36,990
But it's six.

2046
01:14:37,770 --> 01:14:39,110
And now we don't know.

2047
01:14:39,270 --> 01:14:40,570
I got a calendar on my phone.

2048
01:14:40,570 --> 01:14:41,510
Who cares?

2049
01:14:41,930 --> 01:14:42,090
I got a calendar.

2050
01:14:42,130 --> 01:14:45,410
The phone, again, brings us back to the

2051
01:14:45,410 --> 01:14:48,250
end of civilization, which began in 2007.

2052
01:14:48,370 --> 01:14:49,690
The end of civilization.

2053
01:14:50,250 --> 01:14:52,270
Well, here, what the parents do here, and

2054
01:14:52,270 --> 01:14:53,170
I think it's pretty good.

2055
01:14:54,190 --> 01:14:56,670
They will give their kid an Apple Watch

2056
01:14:56,670 --> 01:14:59,610
so that they can text and receive, because,

2057
01:14:59,670 --> 01:15:01,290
you know, these Apple Watches, now you can

2058
01:15:01,290 --> 01:15:02,910
text and receive a phone call.

2059
01:15:03,510 --> 01:15:06,030
And so, but then the parent controls the

2060
01:15:06,030 --> 01:15:06,310
app.

2061
01:15:06,390 --> 01:15:07,950
So there's no other apps on it.

2062
01:15:08,350 --> 01:15:11,750
So they can still text and have a

2063
01:15:11,750 --> 01:15:13,130
phone, but it's not really an easy way

2064
01:15:13,130 --> 01:15:13,530
to text.

2065
01:15:13,650 --> 01:15:14,670
You're not going to be in a chat

2066
01:15:14,670 --> 01:15:16,410
group with your friends like that.

2067
01:15:17,090 --> 01:15:18,670
And that seems to be a pretty good,

2068
01:15:18,910 --> 01:15:21,690
pretty decent halfway solution.

2069
01:15:24,150 --> 01:15:26,370
Halfway, also known as half-assed.

2070
01:15:26,610 --> 01:15:29,010
Well, I mean, I'm still for ham radios.

2071
01:15:29,110 --> 01:15:30,750
I think all kids should have a walkie

2072
01:15:30,750 --> 01:15:31,150
-talkie.

2073
01:15:31,550 --> 01:15:33,410
I love getting some of the Gen Zers

2074
01:15:33,410 --> 01:15:34,050
are getting these.

2075
01:15:34,190 --> 01:15:35,770
You said that earlier, you had a note

2076
01:15:35,770 --> 01:15:36,330
from someone.

2077
01:15:36,470 --> 01:15:37,230
Yeah, yeah.

2078
01:15:37,230 --> 01:15:38,130
They love it.

2079
01:15:38,350 --> 01:15:40,370
They love the hams.

2080
01:15:40,490 --> 01:15:42,190
Yeah, because we're talking about the flag burning.

2081
01:15:42,330 --> 01:15:44,030
Let's talk about D.C. crime, because that's

2082
01:15:44,030 --> 01:15:44,790
a big topic.

2083
01:15:44,930 --> 01:15:45,330
Yes.

2084
01:15:45,510 --> 01:15:46,050
Oh, yes.

2085
01:15:46,350 --> 01:15:47,270
I have some clips.

2086
01:15:47,350 --> 01:15:49,510
I got the D.C. Crime Union Station

2087
01:15:49,510 --> 01:15:50,130
clip.

2088
01:15:50,310 --> 01:15:50,770
Okay.

2089
01:15:51,050 --> 01:15:53,770
The Department of Transportation says it's taking over

2090
01:15:53,770 --> 01:15:57,810
management of Union Station, a major transportation hub

2091
01:15:57,810 --> 01:16:01,250
in Washington, D.C. NPR's Joel Rose reports.

2092
01:16:01,550 --> 01:16:04,190
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says his department is

2093
01:16:04,190 --> 01:16:07,110
taking management of Union Station back from Amtrak.

2094
01:16:07,730 --> 01:16:09,630
The station, which is within walking distance of

2095
01:16:09,630 --> 01:16:11,230
the U.S. Capitol, has been owned by

2096
01:16:11,230 --> 01:16:12,950
DOT since the 1980s.

2097
01:16:13,490 --> 01:16:15,630
Duffy says the department will now reclaim management

2098
01:16:15,630 --> 01:16:17,270
of the station, which he said will help

2099
01:16:17,270 --> 01:16:19,430
to, quote, make the city safe and beautiful

2100
01:16:19,430 --> 01:16:20,990
at a fraction of the cost.

2101
01:16:21,550 --> 01:16:23,890
National Guard troops have been seen patrolling the

2102
01:16:23,890 --> 01:16:26,150
station since the Trump administration sent the Guard

2103
01:16:26,150 --> 01:16:28,790
and other federal law enforcement officials into Washington,

2104
01:16:28,990 --> 01:16:31,850
though local police statistics show that violent crime

2105
01:16:31,850 --> 01:16:34,310
in the District of Columbia has declined, declined,

2106
01:16:34,310 --> 01:16:35,830
declined in recent years.

2107
01:16:36,310 --> 01:16:36,790
Declined.

2108
01:16:39,670 --> 01:16:41,610
So they're making the point, you know, they're

2109
01:16:41,610 --> 01:16:43,950
not talking, they're giving us, again, bad reporting.

2110
01:16:44,050 --> 01:16:46,730
They don't talk about the rigged numbers and

2111
01:16:46,730 --> 01:16:48,930
all the rest of this, and well documented

2112
01:16:48,930 --> 01:16:49,490
by now.

2113
01:16:50,030 --> 01:16:52,990
But so we go, but NPR now goes

2114
01:16:52,990 --> 01:16:53,830
into the juvenile.

2115
01:16:54,210 --> 01:16:56,130
There's a whole segment they do on the

2116
01:16:56,130 --> 01:17:02,670
juvenile thing that, you know, Jeanine Piero, Piero.

2117
01:17:03,470 --> 01:17:06,430
Judge Jeanine, man, bomb him, bomb him again,

2118
01:17:06,630 --> 01:17:06,810
eh?

2119
01:17:07,150 --> 01:17:10,030
Is the bomb him, bomb him girl, wants

2120
01:17:10,030 --> 01:17:12,090
to bomb the juveniles into oblivion.

2121
01:17:12,290 --> 01:17:14,050
And so this becomes a big topic of

2122
01:17:14,050 --> 01:17:17,810
conversation here on NPR about, oh, well, you

2123
01:17:17,810 --> 01:17:20,350
know, the whole idea is that we shouldn't,

2124
01:17:20,450 --> 01:17:23,570
we kind of backed off on juveniles because

2125
01:17:23,570 --> 01:17:25,930
it's turned out that our research indicates that

2126
01:17:25,930 --> 01:17:27,830
if you're, if you're harsh on them, then

2127
01:17:27,830 --> 01:17:30,790
they become lifetime criminals as opposed to letting

2128
01:17:30,790 --> 01:17:32,310
them get away with everything.

2129
01:17:32,310 --> 01:17:34,830
So they won't become like, bring back spanking,

2130
01:17:35,230 --> 01:17:36,730
bring back spanking, people.

2131
01:17:36,830 --> 01:17:37,510
There we go.

2132
01:17:37,650 --> 01:17:40,070
It's one unlike President Trump, who was railed

2133
01:17:40,070 --> 01:17:41,830
against violent crime in the city writ large,

2134
01:17:42,030 --> 01:17:42,490
right there.

2135
01:17:42,770 --> 01:17:43,250
Railed.

2136
01:17:43,290 --> 01:17:44,770
What does even railed mean?

2137
01:17:46,530 --> 01:17:47,470
Let me ask.

2138
01:17:48,290 --> 01:17:50,390
Give me a definition of railed.

2139
01:17:53,260 --> 01:17:55,500
Railed can mean a couple things depending on

2140
01:17:55,500 --> 01:17:56,020
context.

2141
01:17:56,680 --> 01:17:59,100
If you mean physically, it's when something moves

2142
01:17:59,100 --> 01:18:01,680
along or is secured by rails, like a

2143
01:18:01,680 --> 01:18:03,600
train on tracks or a curtain on a

2144
01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:03,860
rod.

2145
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:07,200
Now, if you're thinking slang, railed often means

2146
01:18:07,200 --> 01:18:09,980
getting hit hard or overwhelmed, like in a

2147
01:18:09,980 --> 01:18:11,080
game or argument.

2148
01:18:11,260 --> 01:18:12,000
Oh, please.

2149
01:18:12,900 --> 01:18:13,400
Stupid.

2150
01:18:13,920 --> 01:18:15,260
It's just, it's, it's.

2151
01:18:15,900 --> 01:18:18,980
So it's a colloquialism that isn't even valid.

2152
01:18:19,180 --> 01:18:19,700
Exactly.

2153
01:18:20,060 --> 01:18:20,560
Railed.

2154
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:22,100
He railed against it, man.

2155
01:18:22,220 --> 01:18:24,120
I mean, railing, when someone rails against it,

2156
01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:26,180
I'm getting really mad.

2157
01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:28,660
Unlike President Trump, who was railed against violent

2158
01:18:28,660 --> 01:18:30,680
crime in the city writ large, PIR was

2159
01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:32,800
zeroed in specifically on local laws meant to

2160
01:18:32,800 --> 01:18:35,260
rehabilitate people accused or convicted of crimes at

2161
01:18:35,260 --> 01:18:35,900
a young age.

2162
01:18:36,360 --> 01:18:38,480
She's penned opinion pieces and letters to lawmakers

2163
01:18:38,480 --> 01:18:41,140
criticizing laws allowing for things like juvenile sentence

2164
01:18:41,140 --> 01:18:43,980
reduction, record sealing, and early release.

2165
01:18:44,340 --> 01:18:46,220
I want to send a message that we

2166
01:18:46,220 --> 01:18:48,120
are going to catch you, that we are

2167
01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:50,020
going to change the laws, that if you're

2168
01:18:50,020 --> 01:18:53,420
14, 15, 16, 17, we're going to bring

2169
01:18:53,420 --> 01:18:54,980
you into the justice system.

2170
01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:57,360
PIR has connected the district's reforms to the

2171
01:18:57,360 --> 01:18:59,900
city's recent uptick in youth violence, which included

2172
01:18:59,900 --> 01:19:02,240
a sharp rise in shootings in 2023 that

2173
01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:04,660
has since declined, since declined, since declined.

2174
01:19:04,980 --> 01:19:05,480
Oh, hold on.

2175
01:19:05,580 --> 01:19:06,680
I got to stop that for a second.

2176
01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:11,360
First of all, Judge Jeanine will be the

2177
01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:13,200
one to use the super predator term.

2178
01:19:13,360 --> 01:19:13,820
You watch.

2179
01:19:13,940 --> 01:19:17,060
She's, she's dumb enough, she's smart, but she's

2180
01:19:17,060 --> 01:19:18,800
also dumb enough to throw something or a

2181
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:19,940
new version of super predator.

2182
01:19:19,940 --> 01:19:21,420
I would take a bet on that, that

2183
01:19:21,420 --> 01:19:21,960
she won't.

2184
01:19:22,300 --> 01:19:23,300
You don't think she will?

2185
01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:24,780
No, I don't think so.

2186
01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:29,040
She's so conscientious about being a right winger

2187
01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:31,400
that to use that term, which is really

2188
01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:34,380
popularized by Hillary, I think would be beneath

2189
01:19:34,380 --> 01:19:34,600
her.

2190
01:19:35,640 --> 01:19:36,900
And there was something else I wanted to

2191
01:19:36,900 --> 01:19:37,120
say.

2192
01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:38,260
Oh, I forgot it already.

2193
01:19:38,460 --> 01:19:38,720
Let me see.

2194
01:19:39,460 --> 01:19:41,300
Which included a sharp rise in shootings in

2195
01:19:41,300 --> 01:19:41,860
2023.

2196
01:19:42,300 --> 01:19:45,240
So I looked at the crime statistics of

2197
01:19:45,240 --> 01:19:47,620
DC and they were talking about how it

2198
01:19:47,620 --> 01:19:50,560
was down 30 percent and I'm like, how

2199
01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:51,780
did they arrive at this number?

2200
01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:54,300
It's very simple.

2201
01:19:54,780 --> 01:19:59,180
They looked at 2024, all crime or whatever

2202
01:19:59,180 --> 01:20:00,380
that, what was the statistic?

2203
01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:01,260
Was it, it was crime.

2204
01:20:02,280 --> 01:20:04,240
And then they looked at what they have

2205
01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:05,060
to date.

2206
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:09,240
Well, there's a third of the year left.

2207
01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:12,540
So that's how they arrive at it's down

2208
01:20:12,540 --> 01:20:13,260
30 percent.

2209
01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,180
Well, yeah, the year's not over yet.

2210
01:20:15,520 --> 01:20:17,540
They didn't do it month over month or

2211
01:20:17,540 --> 01:20:18,580
period over period.

2212
01:20:18,580 --> 01:20:21,780
They did it literally full year versus three

2213
01:20:21,780 --> 01:20:22,640
quarters of a year.

2214
01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:23,960
This bull crap.

2215
01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:26,440
Included a sharp rise in shootings in 2023

2216
01:20:26,440 --> 01:20:29,340
that has since declined, since declined, since declined.

2217
01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:32,120
But complaints about juvenile justice reform from prosecutors

2218
01:20:32,120 --> 01:20:34,180
are nothing new in both the Capitol and

2219
01:20:34,180 --> 01:20:35,200
in other parts of the country.

2220
01:20:35,780 --> 01:20:37,560
DC Mayor Muriel Bowser says she is also

2221
01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:39,780
concerned about sending the wrong message to adolescents

2222
01:20:39,780 --> 01:20:40,800
accused of crimes.

2223
01:20:41,220 --> 01:20:43,120
I am an accountability mayor.

2224
01:20:43,580 --> 01:20:46,280
If you commit a crime in the district

2225
01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:49,400
with a gun, there has to be accountability.

2226
01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:52,420
And that's if you are an adult or

2227
01:20:52,420 --> 01:20:53,860
if you are a juvenile.

2228
01:20:54,320 --> 01:20:57,540
I don't think we always have that accountability.

2229
01:20:57,860 --> 01:21:00,380
But criminal justice reform advocates don't want to

2230
01:21:00,380 --> 01:21:02,140
see D.C. leaders make what they say

2231
01:21:02,140 --> 01:21:04,720
will be counterproductive changes simply to appease Trump

2232
01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:06,720
and Pirro in order to war off additional

2233
01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:07,220
interference.

2234
01:21:08,100 --> 01:21:09,700
Vanessa Batters Thompson is the head of the

2235
01:21:09,700 --> 01:21:11,420
D.C. Appleseed Center for Law and Justice.

2236
01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:13,940
She argues that cities and states have pursued

2237
01:21:13,940 --> 01:21:16,660
policy changes allowing for more lenient sentences for

2238
01:21:16,660 --> 01:21:19,300
young people because of the overwhelming evidence that

2239
01:21:19,300 --> 01:21:21,860
punishing them pushes teens to commit more crimes

2240
01:21:21,860 --> 01:21:22,360
in the future.

2241
01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:25,520
Bring back spanking.

2242
01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:27,440
That'll start.

2243
01:21:31,910 --> 01:21:32,890
You've muted yourself.

2244
01:21:33,330 --> 01:21:34,590
You're self-muted.

2245
01:21:35,970 --> 01:21:38,510
It is a crime in 40 of the

2246
01:21:38,510 --> 01:21:40,890
50 states to self-mute yourself on a

2247
01:21:40,890 --> 01:21:41,410
podcast.

2248
01:21:43,050 --> 01:21:44,510
You are still muted.

2249
01:21:46,230 --> 01:21:47,250
Click the button.

2250
01:21:50,350 --> 01:21:52,730
I wonder if maybe he's having an argument,

2251
01:21:52,870 --> 01:21:54,070
doesn't want us to hear it.

2252
01:21:54,730 --> 01:21:55,870
Maybe he's sorry.

2253
01:21:56,730 --> 01:21:58,350
I'll tell you how this happens.

2254
01:21:58,470 --> 01:21:59,530
Yeah, it's magic.

2255
01:22:03,710 --> 01:22:04,590
But the point.

2256
01:22:04,770 --> 01:22:05,610
Yeah, yeah.

2257
01:22:06,550 --> 01:22:07,930
You had something to say that I thought

2258
01:22:07,930 --> 01:22:10,410
was important and I wanted to dispute it.

2259
01:22:10,670 --> 01:22:11,570
Or bring back spanking.

2260
01:22:12,410 --> 01:22:14,190
No, not about bringing back spanking.

2261
01:22:14,350 --> 01:22:16,650
The logic, the logic that was brought up

2262
01:22:16,650 --> 01:22:20,450
in that clip where they say that deterring

2263
01:22:20,450 --> 01:22:24,690
in other words, by punishing crime, it doesn't

2264
01:22:24,690 --> 01:22:28,110
act as a deterrence, which makes sense that

2265
01:22:28,110 --> 01:22:28,810
it might.

2266
01:22:29,190 --> 01:22:31,150
It acts as an encouragement.

2267
01:22:31,350 --> 01:22:31,690
How did it?

2268
01:22:31,710 --> 01:22:32,770
What is the logic here?

2269
01:22:34,110 --> 01:22:35,810
Their logic is the following.

2270
01:22:36,270 --> 01:22:40,130
To deter crime by punishing the juveniles, it

2271
01:22:40,130 --> 01:22:41,530
will encourage more crime.

2272
01:22:42,230 --> 01:22:42,510
Yeah.

2273
01:22:43,650 --> 01:22:44,930
I want to know the logic.

2274
01:22:45,010 --> 01:22:45,550
Do you have it?

2275
01:22:45,790 --> 01:22:45,990
No.

2276
01:22:46,970 --> 01:22:48,550
No, of course not.

2277
01:22:48,710 --> 01:22:48,830
All right.

2278
01:22:48,830 --> 01:22:50,390
They claim that's true.

2279
01:22:50,570 --> 01:22:52,810
OK, well, let's go on to the WTF,

2280
01:22:53,130 --> 01:22:55,010
which is the worst clip, which is this

2281
01:22:55,010 --> 01:22:55,350
one.

2282
01:22:55,730 --> 01:22:57,350
Pushes teens to commit more crimes in the

2283
01:22:57,350 --> 01:22:57,650
future.

2284
01:22:58,090 --> 01:23:00,170
It feels like we are taking a step

2285
01:23:00,170 --> 01:23:04,490
back from an evidence based approach to criminal

2286
01:23:04,490 --> 01:23:07,650
justice, to one that is really focused on

2287
01:23:07,650 --> 01:23:11,450
the short term appearance of less crime at

2288
01:23:11,450 --> 01:23:14,810
the risk of a population that is much

2289
01:23:14,810 --> 01:23:17,470
less stable over the long term.

2290
01:23:17,470 --> 01:23:19,670
Pero has also criticized a D.C. law

2291
01:23:19,670 --> 01:23:21,690
allowing people convicted of crimes under the age

2292
01:23:21,690 --> 01:23:24,410
of 25 to seek sentence reductions after they've

2293
01:23:24,410 --> 01:23:25,690
served at least 15 years.

2294
01:23:26,230 --> 01:23:27,810
More than a dozen states have passed similar

2295
01:23:27,810 --> 01:23:30,130
reforms, giving judges a chance to review a

2296
01:23:30,130 --> 01:23:31,890
sentence after a significant amount of time has

2297
01:23:31,890 --> 01:23:32,430
been served.

2298
01:23:32,710 --> 01:23:34,490
Troy Berner was one of the first beneficiaries

2299
01:23:34,490 --> 01:23:37,010
of D.C.'s sentence reduction law after spending

2300
01:23:37,010 --> 01:23:39,350
24 years in prison for a crime he

2301
01:23:39,350 --> 01:23:39,850
didn't commit.

2302
01:23:42,270 --> 01:23:44,990
Wait, the guy didn't commit the crime?

2303
01:23:45,190 --> 01:23:45,430
Yeah.

2304
01:23:45,990 --> 01:23:48,870
That's and he is a beneficiary of a

2305
01:23:48,870 --> 01:23:50,430
shortened sentence.

2306
01:23:51,670 --> 01:23:53,650
How come he wasn't commuted if he didn't

2307
01:23:53,650 --> 01:23:53,910
commit?

2308
01:23:54,030 --> 01:23:56,190
What is he doing in jail in the

2309
01:23:56,190 --> 01:23:58,330
first place if he didn't commit the crime?

2310
01:23:58,570 --> 01:24:00,790
Well, they throw that in there to show

2311
01:24:00,790 --> 01:24:03,430
that the justice system does not work because

2312
01:24:03,430 --> 01:24:05,650
people who are innocent get thrown in jail.

2313
01:24:05,750 --> 01:24:09,410
That's that that's part of the whole ethos

2314
01:24:09,410 --> 01:24:12,750
of the left, you see, is they don't

2315
01:24:12,750 --> 01:24:13,590
always get it right.

2316
01:24:13,590 --> 01:24:14,730
So I could be your kid.

2317
01:24:14,850 --> 01:24:17,410
So you don't, by the way, little remind

2318
01:24:17,410 --> 01:24:19,230
me, I've got to tell a Fredericksburg story

2319
01:24:19,230 --> 01:24:20,530
right after this last clip.

2320
01:24:20,590 --> 01:24:21,280
You want to set it up?

2321
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:25,660
I'm not going to set up the Fredericksburg

2322
01:24:25,660 --> 01:24:27,440
story, but I remember to say that to

2323
01:24:27,440 --> 01:24:27,580
you.

2324
01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:28,100
Let's go to.

2325
01:24:28,320 --> 01:24:30,260
So anyway, so the point is that this

2326
01:24:30,260 --> 01:24:33,560
is a propagandistic outfit, this NPR and people

2327
01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:34,460
giving them money.

2328
01:24:34,480 --> 01:24:35,700
It's really a shame.

2329
01:24:35,820 --> 01:24:36,300
Here we go.

2330
01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:36,680
Shame.

2331
01:24:37,860 --> 01:24:38,480
Stop giving.

2332
01:24:38,480 --> 01:24:38,900
So here we go.

2333
01:24:39,220 --> 01:24:40,540
This is the last.

2334
01:24:41,140 --> 01:24:43,860
He now studies criminal justice reform issues and

2335
01:24:43,860 --> 01:24:45,840
observes that these reductions are only meant to

2336
01:24:45,840 --> 01:24:48,080
give people second chances after they clear a

2337
01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:49,140
rigorous review process.

2338
01:24:49,600 --> 01:24:51,140
He says they have no bearing at all

2339
01:24:51,140 --> 01:24:52,120
on youth crime rates.

2340
01:24:52,420 --> 01:24:53,960
We're doing some amazing things out here.

2341
01:24:54,080 --> 01:24:56,420
And I think, you know, when it's all

2342
01:24:56,420 --> 01:24:59,160
said and done, you know, people lives are

2343
01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:02,780
being involved in this misleading narratives.

2344
01:25:03,260 --> 01:25:06,120
Similarly, Nye Winslow, policy counsel of the D

2345
01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:08,440
.C. Justice Lab, points to Pirro's focus on

2346
01:25:08,440 --> 01:25:10,720
the city's juvenile record sealing laws and misguided

2347
01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:10,980
one.

2348
01:25:10,980 --> 01:25:13,160
I know she and the administration want to

2349
01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:15,340
talk about public safety, but if you are

2350
01:25:15,340 --> 01:25:19,260
allowing people the opportunity to move forward and

2351
01:25:19,260 --> 01:25:21,680
gain a legal income, get legal housing, get

2352
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:24,840
legal education opportunities, that will decrease the chance

2353
01:25:24,840 --> 01:25:26,700
that they are going to resort to criminal

2354
01:25:26,700 --> 01:25:27,260
activity.

2355
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,340
Pirro's office declined to speak with NPR for

2356
01:25:29,340 --> 01:25:32,020
this story, stating her public comments spoke for

2357
01:25:32,020 --> 01:25:32,440
themselves.

2358
01:25:33,020 --> 01:25:35,360
For NPR News, I'm Alex Tromo in Washington,

2359
01:25:35,360 --> 01:25:36,220
D.C. Hold on a second.

2360
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:38,820
These juveniles do have a home.

2361
01:25:38,820 --> 01:25:41,200
It's not as though they're homeless roaming around

2362
01:25:41,200 --> 01:25:42,260
homeless kids.

2363
01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:43,140
Unhoused.

2364
01:25:43,900 --> 01:25:44,300
Unhoused.

2365
01:25:44,420 --> 01:25:45,240
Oh, yeah, unhoused.

2366
01:25:46,180 --> 01:25:49,040
And so this logic, again, there's the logic

2367
01:25:49,040 --> 01:25:50,200
is elusive.

2368
01:25:51,980 --> 01:25:55,080
Mainstream media is not good for anybody's mental

2369
01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:55,520
health.

2370
01:25:56,860 --> 01:25:59,700
But even in Fredericksburg, we have gotten to

2371
01:25:59,700 --> 01:26:05,140
a place where there's something that happened in

2372
01:26:05,140 --> 01:26:06,380
people's minds.

2373
01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:08,680
I'm not sure exactly what it is.

2374
01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:11,160
So we live on a it should be

2375
01:26:11,160 --> 01:26:13,600
a gated community, but it's not because, you

2376
01:26:13,600 --> 01:26:16,280
know, there's a whole who owns the roads

2377
01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:17,840
and the city didn't want it when this

2378
01:26:17,840 --> 01:26:19,460
it's a what do you call it?

2379
01:26:20,140 --> 01:26:20,580
Subdivision.

2380
01:26:20,660 --> 01:26:22,480
And there's 12 in a subdivision.

2381
01:26:22,560 --> 01:26:24,100
You have an awful lot of property for

2382
01:26:24,100 --> 01:26:25,460
someone in the subdivision.

2383
01:26:25,580 --> 01:26:26,520
It's Texas, man.

2384
01:26:27,360 --> 01:26:29,660
So in Texas here, we got lots of

2385
01:26:29,660 --> 01:26:30,020
land.

2386
01:26:30,080 --> 01:26:30,880
We have the many.

2387
01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:33,000
We got the Mac mansions and we got

2388
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:34,660
them all over the place because that's what

2389
01:26:34,660 --> 01:26:35,100
we do.

2390
01:26:35,420 --> 01:26:36,460
That's what we do.

2391
01:26:36,460 --> 01:26:40,660
My mansions with lots of limestone and exposed

2392
01:26:40,660 --> 01:26:45,040
beams, which we do not have 12 homes.

2393
01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:47,980
And so we're on one end is a

2394
01:26:47,980 --> 01:26:48,520
cul-de-sac.

2395
01:26:48,660 --> 01:26:49,980
And there's a cul-de-sac on the

2396
01:26:49,980 --> 01:26:50,420
other end.

2397
01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:51,900
And then there's a road and a couple

2398
01:26:51,900 --> 01:26:53,240
of wait, wait, stop.

2399
01:26:53,440 --> 01:26:55,200
There's a cul-de-sac on one end

2400
01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:55,940
and the other ends.

2401
01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:58,220
How do you get into this area in

2402
01:26:58,220 --> 01:26:58,960
the first place?

2403
01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:01,340
In the middle, there's a road that comes

2404
01:27:01,340 --> 01:27:03,500
in the middle and and and in the

2405
01:27:03,500 --> 01:27:05,220
middle, there's actually where the mailboxes are.

2406
01:27:05,220 --> 01:27:06,720
OK, you got the picture?

2407
01:27:06,820 --> 01:27:07,420
You got the picture?

2408
01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:09,340
Not really, but yes.

2409
01:27:09,500 --> 01:27:11,500
We're all the way at one end, quiet,

2410
01:27:11,700 --> 01:27:13,820
little little Adam and Tina and Phoebe just

2411
01:27:13,820 --> 01:27:15,720
living here in our modest home.

2412
01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:18,040
The Mac mansions are a little bit further

2413
01:27:18,040 --> 01:27:18,340
up.

2414
01:27:19,200 --> 01:27:25,780
But about nine months ago, a family moved

2415
01:27:25,780 --> 01:27:28,460
in and the guy's a contractor.

2416
01:27:28,460 --> 01:27:31,000
And so he's already irritating everybody because he

2417
01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:35,420
had, you know, like tractors and big machinery

2418
01:27:35,420 --> 01:27:37,940
in his front yard and while he was

2419
01:27:37,940 --> 01:27:38,880
building his house.

2420
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:40,480
But then they kind of stayed.

2421
01:27:40,680 --> 01:27:42,800
And so there's all kinds of consternation at

2422
01:27:42,800 --> 01:27:44,360
the other end, including.

2423
01:27:45,960 --> 01:27:49,700
Yeah, I love this sort of neighborhood consternation

2424
01:27:49,700 --> 01:27:52,200
over the guy has a heavy equipment in

2425
01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:52,980
his front yard.

2426
01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:55,240
Well, I mean, man, can you move your

2427
01:27:55,240 --> 01:27:55,780
tractor?

2428
01:27:56,500 --> 01:27:58,660
And, you know, 4th of July, they were

2429
01:27:58,660 --> 01:28:01,840
shooting fireworks off and it was, you know,

2430
01:28:01,840 --> 01:28:03,720
it was and all the debris was going

2431
01:28:03,720 --> 01:28:05,740
in other people's yards and their pool.

2432
01:28:06,040 --> 01:28:08,640
And so there's a text group of half

2433
01:28:08,640 --> 01:28:09,580
of the inhabitants.

2434
01:28:09,580 --> 01:28:11,260
And I've been roped into this because I

2435
01:28:11,260 --> 01:28:14,020
find it highly entertaining because I'm on the

2436
01:28:14,020 --> 01:28:14,400
other end.

2437
01:28:14,440 --> 01:28:16,060
We're in the quiet, peaceful part.

2438
01:28:17,220 --> 01:28:20,040
And so the other of those last weekend,

2439
01:28:20,460 --> 01:28:23,940
it was Saturday night and I'm walking Phoebe

2440
01:28:24,860 --> 01:28:27,740
and they have two young boys, a baby.

2441
01:28:27,740 --> 01:28:30,160
And I guess the boys had some some

2442
01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:32,000
friends over and I don't know where the

2443
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:34,140
parents were, but they had gotten one of

2444
01:28:34,140 --> 01:28:38,500
his his utility vehicles, which is, you know,

2445
01:28:38,860 --> 01:28:40,500
kind of like a golf cart that can

2446
01:28:40,500 --> 01:28:42,400
pull stuff that has a has a real

2447
01:28:42,400 --> 01:28:43,300
engine in it.

2448
01:28:43,460 --> 01:28:45,680
And they're racing up and down the road.

2449
01:28:45,740 --> 01:28:47,640
I mean, racing is is there's a big

2450
01:28:47,640 --> 01:28:50,160
word, you know, they've got one headlamp and

2451
01:28:50,160 --> 01:28:51,320
they're all hooting and hollering.

2452
01:28:51,320 --> 01:28:53,320
And it's like nine o'clock or whatever.

2453
01:28:53,460 --> 01:28:54,740
Yeah, the kids, right.

2454
01:28:54,740 --> 01:28:57,740
And then they had a sparty.

2455
01:28:57,820 --> 01:29:00,360
Yeah, they had electric mini bikes and they're

2456
01:29:00,360 --> 01:29:01,360
zipping around.

2457
01:29:01,440 --> 01:29:03,960
And Phoebe's like, they're afraid of me because,

2458
01:29:04,020 --> 01:29:05,700
you know, the Phoebe is like she's just

2459
01:29:05,700 --> 01:29:07,040
going nuts when they come by.

2460
01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:09,820
And, you know, they're going up and down.

2461
01:29:09,900 --> 01:29:12,840
And I'm like, yeah, I remember when I

2462
01:29:12,840 --> 01:29:14,660
was a kid, you know, I had all

2463
01:29:14,660 --> 01:29:18,060
kinds of motorized vehicles and, you know, it's

2464
01:29:18,060 --> 01:29:19,160
nine o'clock, whatever.

2465
01:29:19,760 --> 01:29:21,960
So it wasn't loud or anything, but they

2466
01:29:21,960 --> 01:29:23,240
were just going up and down.

2467
01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:25,220
So I thought nothing of it.

2468
01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:26,520
Like, I'm not going to I'm not going

2469
01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:28,500
to be that old coot who says I

2470
01:29:28,500 --> 01:29:29,780
can't stop that.

2471
01:29:30,060 --> 01:29:31,880
However, the shaker, you got to shake my

2472
01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:32,060
fist.

2473
01:29:32,920 --> 01:29:33,060
Yes.

2474
01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:36,920
However, it turns out they were doing this

2475
01:29:36,920 --> 01:29:38,800
until one in the morning up at the

2476
01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:39,380
other end.

2477
01:29:40,140 --> 01:29:42,980
And so the text group fires up like,

2478
01:29:43,120 --> 01:29:44,240
can you believe it?

2479
01:29:44,440 --> 01:29:46,000
They were doing that until one in the

2480
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:46,380
morning.

2481
01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:48,160
I'm like, what did you do?

2482
01:29:49,340 --> 01:29:51,960
Well, you know, I couldn't get to sleep.

2483
01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:53,120
I texted.

2484
01:29:53,460 --> 01:29:55,440
What is wrong with you people?

2485
01:29:56,060 --> 01:29:58,860
I said, I said, OK, next, because, you

2486
01:29:58,860 --> 01:30:00,000
know, we do have a 10 o'clock

2487
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:01,020
ordinance, I guess.

2488
01:30:01,160 --> 01:30:02,900
And just after 10 o'clock, just stop

2489
01:30:02,900 --> 01:30:03,600
making noise.

2490
01:30:03,640 --> 01:30:04,240
It's fine.

2491
01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:05,700
Unless you talk to everybody.

2492
01:30:05,700 --> 01:30:06,420
I'm going to have a party.

2493
01:30:06,560 --> 01:30:07,080
Come on over.

2494
01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:10,160
And I said, what is wrong with you?

2495
01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:13,600
Next time they do that, text me and

2496
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,180
I'll call my friend Mike, the lieutenant, the

2497
01:30:16,180 --> 01:30:16,920
sheriff's office.

2498
01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:18,760
I have to send someone over and scare

2499
01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:20,300
the living daylights out of them.

2500
01:30:21,140 --> 01:30:23,400
But these people don't do that anymore.

2501
01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:26,320
They sit there and grouse on text.

2502
01:30:27,600 --> 01:30:29,980
You know, you're grown men.

2503
01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:32,900
You're going to let these kids terrorize you

2504
01:30:32,900 --> 01:30:34,440
until one in the morning and just go

2505
01:30:34,440 --> 01:30:36,960
out there and say, hey, cut it out.

2506
01:30:37,580 --> 01:30:38,840
This is Texas.

2507
01:30:39,720 --> 01:30:41,180
There's something going on.

2508
01:30:41,860 --> 01:30:43,420
The people have lost the plot.

2509
01:30:43,520 --> 01:30:44,880
I mean, what are you afraid of?

2510
01:30:45,180 --> 01:30:46,360
Are you afraid that you're going to get

2511
01:30:46,360 --> 01:30:48,920
someone's parents angry because you told their kids

2512
01:30:48,920 --> 01:30:49,880
to knock it off?

2513
01:30:52,700 --> 01:30:56,420
It's disappointing, to say the least.

2514
01:30:57,640 --> 01:30:59,780
By the way, this is an ongoing saga.

2515
01:30:59,920 --> 01:31:00,960
There will be more updates.

2516
01:31:01,120 --> 01:31:02,820
There's a lot more going on with these

2517
01:31:02,820 --> 01:31:03,260
people.

2518
01:31:03,980 --> 01:31:07,100
We have, you know, in Holland, in Dutch,

2519
01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:08,760
in the old country, we have a term

2520
01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:09,920
for a family like this.

2521
01:31:10,300 --> 01:31:11,400
We call them Tokkies.

2522
01:31:12,980 --> 01:31:15,860
And they are Tokkies, T-O-K-K

2523
01:31:15,860 --> 01:31:19,700
-I-E-S, Tokkies, Tokkies, Tokkies.

2524
01:31:19,700 --> 01:31:22,360
And every neighborhood eventually gets some Tokkies.

2525
01:31:22,580 --> 01:31:23,760
And we got them.

2526
01:31:23,860 --> 01:31:26,080
And luckily, they're at the other end of

2527
01:31:26,080 --> 01:31:28,980
the road, far away from me to be

2528
01:31:28,980 --> 01:31:29,660
disturbed by.

2529
01:31:29,760 --> 01:31:30,800
Yeah, it sounds like a winner.

2530
01:31:30,900 --> 01:31:32,780
I had some Tokkies living next to me

2531
01:31:32,780 --> 01:31:33,480
when I was down on.

2532
01:31:33,560 --> 01:31:33,800
It's Tokkies.

2533
01:31:33,980 --> 01:31:34,840
Get together Tokkies.

2534
01:31:35,020 --> 01:31:38,660
That were, they were heroin dealers.

2535
01:31:40,280 --> 01:31:40,760
Excellent.

2536
01:31:42,580 --> 01:31:44,080
And they weren't there that long.

2537
01:31:44,160 --> 01:31:46,500
They were there for maybe six months, but

2538
01:31:46,500 --> 01:31:48,200
it was pretty apparent what was going on.

2539
01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:50,720
And it was funny because they also owned

2540
01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:52,860
a restaurant in Berkley, which the name remained

2541
01:31:53,720 --> 01:31:54,120
nameless.

2542
01:31:54,200 --> 01:31:55,860
But I think they financed the restaurant with

2543
01:31:55,860 --> 01:31:57,440
their heroin dealings.

2544
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:01,220
So one day, so there's one day I

2545
01:32:01,220 --> 01:32:02,580
got a knock on my door because somebody

2546
01:32:02,580 --> 01:32:04,580
mixed up the houses and thought it was,

2547
01:32:04,660 --> 01:32:05,420
I was the hero.

2548
01:32:05,540 --> 01:32:08,080
Hey man, hey man, are you holding, are

2549
01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:08,460
you holding?

2550
01:32:10,300 --> 01:32:12,040
But no, it was kind of a surprise.

2551
01:32:12,420 --> 01:32:15,940
It was two, I don't know if they

2552
01:32:15,940 --> 01:32:17,900
were world class, but they sure looked like

2553
01:32:17,900 --> 01:32:18,180
it to me.

2554
01:32:19,660 --> 01:32:20,080
Supermodels.

2555
01:32:21,040 --> 01:32:21,680
Oh yeah.

2556
01:32:21,940 --> 01:32:22,220
Yeah.

2557
01:32:22,240 --> 01:32:25,540
They use that to, instead of eating, they

2558
01:32:25,540 --> 01:32:26,180
do heroin.

2559
01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:28,980
And it was like, holy shit.

2560
01:32:29,380 --> 01:32:31,120
These women are beautiful.

2561
01:32:31,580 --> 01:32:33,440
And there is, you know, they had the

2562
01:32:33,440 --> 01:32:35,220
guy's name is, is he living here?

2563
01:32:35,460 --> 01:32:37,060
No, he's next door.

2564
01:32:37,780 --> 01:32:40,440
And so I, well, I'm giving him directions.

2565
01:32:40,620 --> 01:32:41,680
Oh, thanks.

2566
01:32:41,860 --> 01:32:43,540
And they go over there and then you,

2567
01:32:43,620 --> 01:32:44,980
the door opens, you hear it slam.

2568
01:32:44,980 --> 01:32:46,080
Then it opens again.

2569
01:32:46,160 --> 01:32:47,180
As soon as they get back in their

2570
01:32:47,180 --> 01:32:49,620
car within 10 minutes and off they go

2571
01:32:49,620 --> 01:32:50,340
to two of them.

2572
01:32:50,480 --> 01:32:50,640
Yeah.

2573
01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:53,520
And I'm thinking, holy mackerel, what a business.

2574
01:32:53,740 --> 01:32:54,060
Wow.

2575
01:32:54,200 --> 01:32:55,820
This is a story I have not heard

2576
01:32:55,820 --> 01:32:56,240
from you.

2577
01:32:56,380 --> 01:32:56,940
This is a new one.

2578
01:32:57,000 --> 01:32:57,880
I've never told him.

2579
01:32:58,120 --> 01:32:59,500
Almost 18 years.

2580
01:32:59,620 --> 01:33:01,280
And you never cease to amaze me with

2581
01:33:01,280 --> 01:33:01,960
your life experience.

2582
01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:05,160
About the hotties, the heroin addict hotties.

2583
01:33:05,280 --> 01:33:06,540
The heroin hotties.

2584
01:33:06,640 --> 01:33:07,220
There you go.

2585
01:33:07,660 --> 01:33:08,420
Heroin hotties.

2586
01:33:08,580 --> 01:33:09,620
That's the name for a show title.

2587
01:33:09,660 --> 01:33:10,720
Yeah, I think so too.

2588
01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:13,320
I'm writing it down just in case.

2589
01:33:13,460 --> 01:33:14,260
Heroin hotties.

2590
01:33:15,180 --> 01:33:16,020
Wow, man.

2591
01:33:16,380 --> 01:33:17,640
What a world, huh?

2592
01:33:17,900 --> 01:33:19,040
We get to live in it.

2593
01:33:19,580 --> 01:33:20,380
That's great.

2594
01:33:20,540 --> 01:33:21,960
I love that we get to live in

2595
01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:22,500
this world.

2596
01:33:23,300 --> 01:33:24,120
So I have these.

2597
01:33:25,120 --> 01:33:26,640
How much time do we have left in

2598
01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:27,160
this segment?

2599
01:33:27,460 --> 01:33:29,040
In this segment, I give you 15.

2600
01:33:29,720 --> 01:33:30,920
Well, let's go with the owner.

2601
01:33:31,060 --> 01:33:34,740
I found a TikToker guy, but it's just

2602
01:33:34,740 --> 01:33:35,840
really a news reporter.

2603
01:33:36,020 --> 01:33:36,580
He's on the UK.

2604
01:33:36,980 --> 01:33:39,560
And it's UK reports of the crap that's

2605
01:33:39,560 --> 01:33:40,580
going on in the UK.

2606
01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:41,660
So bad.

2607
01:33:41,700 --> 01:33:43,300
That they're trying to pull over on the

2608
01:33:43,300 --> 01:33:43,620
public.

2609
01:33:43,620 --> 01:33:44,960
And the public just buys it.

2610
01:33:45,080 --> 01:33:46,860
This is UK is a mess.

2611
01:33:47,100 --> 01:33:47,900
Yeah, it is.

2612
01:33:48,100 --> 01:33:50,640
Here's the these are they call owns a

2613
01:33:50,640 --> 01:33:50,820
risk.

2614
01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:53,560
But this owns risk UK cash limit.

2615
01:33:53,660 --> 01:33:55,020
Have you heard about the cash limit?

2616
01:33:55,160 --> 01:33:57,960
Yes, they're doing it all over the EU.

2617
01:33:58,120 --> 01:33:59,240
So it doesn't surprise me.

2618
01:33:59,320 --> 01:34:00,380
It's in the UK.

2619
01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:01,640
I'm just going to guess.

2620
01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:05,120
No more than £100 cash.

2621
01:34:07,340 --> 01:34:08,460
Well, it's different.

2622
01:34:08,820 --> 01:34:11,620
Well, it's a little more elaborate than that.

2623
01:34:11,640 --> 01:34:12,360
Okay, here we go.

2624
01:34:12,360 --> 01:34:14,700
September 18th, 2025.

2625
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:18,240
Withdrawing more than £200 in cash within seven

2626
01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:20,940
days will activate an alert on your account.

2627
01:34:21,240 --> 01:34:21,340
Wow.

2628
01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:23,400
Yes, the moment you cross that limit, your

2629
01:34:23,400 --> 01:34:26,660
banking activity goes straight to the Financial Intelligence

2630
01:34:26,660 --> 01:34:30,620
Unit, supported by HMRC, the Treasury and the

2631
01:34:30,620 --> 01:34:31,980
Financial Conduct Authority.

2632
01:34:32,540 --> 01:34:33,680
And it doesn't stop there.

2633
01:34:34,060 --> 01:34:37,160
A new automated monitoring system will scan every

2634
01:34:37,160 --> 01:34:39,360
withdrawal, deposit and transfer.

2635
01:34:39,360 --> 01:34:43,720
Take out £300 today and another £100 later

2636
01:34:43,720 --> 01:34:44,300
in the week.

2637
01:34:44,680 --> 01:34:45,680
Instantly reviewed.

2638
01:34:46,160 --> 01:34:49,160
Your account could be checked, restricted or even

2639
01:34:49,160 --> 01:34:50,400
temporarily paused.

2640
01:34:50,840 --> 01:34:52,800
Do this often and you could end up

2641
01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:55,580
on a high risk list facing block transactions,

2642
01:34:56,160 --> 01:34:59,040
limited card use and possible reports to other

2643
01:34:59,040 --> 01:34:59,620
agencies.

2644
01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:02,420
The rule is aimed at reducing activity in

2645
01:35:02,420 --> 01:35:06,260
certain sectors like property, secondhand cars and cash

2646
01:35:06,260 --> 01:35:06,980
based deals.

2647
01:35:06,980 --> 01:35:09,720
But many believe it could affect ordinary people

2648
01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:12,840
too, making every step of your financial life

2649
01:35:12,840 --> 01:35:14,240
feel closely monitored.

2650
01:35:14,880 --> 01:35:15,440
Wow.

2651
01:35:15,900 --> 01:35:17,200
You know what these people need?

2652
01:35:17,460 --> 01:35:19,640
I mean, I would have said Bitcoin, but

2653
01:35:19,640 --> 01:35:20,780
we might as well just hit them with

2654
01:35:20,780 --> 01:35:21,700
some stablecoin.

2655
01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:22,200
Quick.

2656
01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:25,440
They need something.

2657
01:35:25,860 --> 01:35:27,740
That is, that is draconian.

2658
01:35:28,260 --> 01:35:29,420
It's ridiculous.

2659
01:35:29,940 --> 01:35:31,820
And then they talk about the reason for

2660
01:35:31,820 --> 01:35:32,020
this.

2661
01:35:32,060 --> 01:35:34,520
So you can't buy a secondhand car cash.

2662
01:35:35,420 --> 01:35:35,980
No.

2663
01:35:35,980 --> 01:35:37,000
I can't go by.

2664
01:35:37,140 --> 01:35:38,980
You got a car for sales like 500

2665
01:35:38,980 --> 01:35:39,340
bucks.

2666
01:35:39,440 --> 01:35:40,340
Here's 500 bucks.

2667
01:35:40,420 --> 01:35:40,840
Give me that.

2668
01:35:40,940 --> 01:35:42,480
What kind of car are you buying for

2669
01:35:42,480 --> 01:35:43,340
500 bucks?

2670
01:35:43,620 --> 01:35:45,040
Well, I'm just saying just to make I'm

2671
01:35:45,040 --> 01:35:45,840
rounding numbers.

2672
01:35:46,640 --> 01:35:47,560
Uh, okay.

2673
01:35:47,620 --> 01:35:48,300
10 grand.

2674
01:35:48,480 --> 01:35:50,040
Here's $10,000 in cash.

2675
01:35:50,120 --> 01:35:50,920
Can I have your car?

2676
01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:51,360
No way.

2677
01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:52,260
You might be a drug.

2678
01:35:52,300 --> 01:35:54,420
You might be holding heroin for the hotties.

2679
01:35:54,440 --> 01:35:55,660
You can't, you can't have that.

2680
01:35:56,020 --> 01:35:57,680
I mean, the whole thing is ridiculous.

2681
01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:01,480
So here's the second clip that's got another

2682
01:36:01,480 --> 01:36:03,740
crazy thing going on in the UK.

2683
01:36:03,740 --> 01:36:07,440
As in January, 2026, a new contribution will

2684
01:36:07,440 --> 01:36:09,320
be added directly to your pay slip.

2685
01:36:09,740 --> 01:36:11,460
Yes, you read that correctly.

2686
01:36:12,100 --> 01:36:15,820
On January 2nd, 2026, a debt recovery contribution

2687
01:36:15,820 --> 01:36:18,700
will automatically be deducted from the paychecks of

2688
01:36:18,700 --> 01:36:19,860
most UK workers.

2689
01:36:20,300 --> 01:36:22,360
This new measure is designed to help manage

2690
01:36:22,360 --> 01:36:25,100
the UK's rising national debt, which has grown

2691
01:36:25,100 --> 01:36:26,960
significantly in recent years.

2692
01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:28,720
But here's where it gets interesting.

2693
01:36:29,220 --> 01:36:31,720
90 pounds will be taken before your salary

2694
01:36:31,720 --> 01:36:33,320
even reaches your bank account.

2695
01:36:33,320 --> 01:36:36,160
Adding up to over £1,000 per year.

2696
01:36:36,540 --> 01:36:39,240
With many families already facing higher living costs

2697
01:36:39,240 --> 01:36:41,980
and inflation, this new deduction is likely to

2698
01:36:41,980 --> 01:36:42,940
have a big impact.

2699
01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:46,480
HMRC will handle the collection and employers will

2700
01:36:46,480 --> 01:36:48,740
be legally required to ensure it's taken.

2701
01:36:49,280 --> 01:36:52,740
Exemptions apply only to pensioners, large families and

2702
01:36:52,740 --> 01:36:54,220
those on specific benefits.

2703
01:36:54,700 --> 01:36:57,140
For everyone else, it's automatic and unavoidable.

2704
01:36:57,660 --> 01:36:59,980
While supporters say this is a necessary step

2705
01:36:59,980 --> 01:37:03,100
to manage public finances, critics feel it places

2706
01:37:03,100 --> 01:37:05,040
extra pressure on regular workers.

2707
01:37:05,260 --> 01:37:06,100
No kidding.

2708
01:37:06,560 --> 01:37:08,300
So that's to reduce the deficit?

2709
01:37:09,340 --> 01:37:12,460
Yeah, so they screw up and they run

2710
01:37:12,460 --> 01:37:13,460
up a big deficit.

2711
01:37:13,860 --> 01:37:15,480
And they say, well, you know, what are

2712
01:37:15,480 --> 01:37:16,840
we going to do about this big deficit?

2713
01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:18,160
Well, what we're going to do is we're

2714
01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:20,460
going to ding everybody with the, because everything's

2715
01:37:20,460 --> 01:37:22,420
now, you know, the finances is going to

2716
01:37:22,420 --> 01:37:24,580
be all digital because you can't even have

2717
01:37:24,580 --> 01:37:27,800
$200 in cash, you know, before being considered

2718
01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:28,400
a criminal.

2719
01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:30,820
So you have, so that you can't do

2720
01:37:30,820 --> 01:37:31,640
anything about it.

2721
01:37:31,720 --> 01:37:33,480
And the money just gets sucked out of

2722
01:37:33,480 --> 01:37:34,980
your account, whether you like it or not.

2723
01:37:35,440 --> 01:37:37,220
Bitcoin people, they get to the Bitcoin.

2724
01:37:37,620 --> 01:37:38,500
Bitcoin's not going to help.

2725
01:37:38,620 --> 01:37:40,640
I think stablecoin is the answer, but it's

2726
01:37:40,640 --> 01:37:42,220
not, that's like, that'll be illegal.

2727
01:37:42,440 --> 01:37:43,520
They'll just make that illegal.

2728
01:37:43,740 --> 01:37:44,640
Oh, it already is.

2729
01:37:45,420 --> 01:37:48,300
You know, that, you saw that commercial that

2730
01:37:48,300 --> 01:37:51,800
Coinbase did about everything's fine in the UK.

2731
01:37:51,980 --> 01:37:53,200
It's like a three minute commercial.

2732
01:37:53,340 --> 01:37:55,600
It's like a, it's like a cabaret.

2733
01:37:55,860 --> 01:37:58,140
They're on the street singing and dancing and

2734
01:37:58,140 --> 01:37:59,040
everything's a mess.

2735
01:37:59,100 --> 01:38:00,940
And the garbage is piling up and rats

2736
01:38:00,940 --> 01:38:03,580
are walking around and the ceiling's caving in

2737
01:38:03,580 --> 01:38:05,440
and people are like, everything's fine.

2738
01:38:05,520 --> 01:38:06,400
Everything's lovely.

2739
01:38:06,760 --> 01:38:09,920
And then it's because Coinbase wasn't allowed to

2740
01:38:09,920 --> 01:38:12,540
either operate or certainly not to advertise their

2741
01:38:12,540 --> 01:38:13,200
services.

2742
01:38:13,600 --> 01:38:14,480
I think it's to operate.

2743
01:38:14,480 --> 01:38:15,700
I know, I never saw that ad.

2744
01:38:15,780 --> 01:38:16,860
Yeah, it's around.

2745
01:38:17,580 --> 01:38:19,860
Well, of course we still have the Raise

2746
01:38:19,860 --> 01:38:23,280
the Colors protest ongoing in the UK and

2747
01:38:23,280 --> 01:38:24,080
it's spreading.

2748
01:38:24,960 --> 01:38:26,940
And I thought it was rather interesting because

2749
01:38:26,940 --> 01:38:29,120
we were talking a couple of shows ago.

2750
01:38:29,900 --> 01:38:31,640
You said, well, who's organizing this?

2751
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,520
Who is organizing all of these, this immigration,

2752
01:38:34,740 --> 01:38:37,580
all this illegal stuff and people getting, you

2753
01:38:37,580 --> 01:38:40,700
know, hotel rooms and et cetera, et cetera.

2754
01:38:41,220 --> 01:38:43,380
Well, it turns out that the only people

2755
01:38:43,380 --> 01:38:46,800
organizing it are the citizenry themselves who just

2756
01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:49,780
let it happen because they were told by

2757
01:38:49,780 --> 01:38:53,680
their media and their politicians, oh, poor people,

2758
01:38:53,920 --> 01:38:56,640
poor people, without any thought for the consequences.

2759
01:38:56,940 --> 01:38:59,640
And now the Australians are acting up.

2760
01:38:59,840 --> 01:39:01,000
An online movement.

2761
01:39:01,260 --> 01:39:03,500
When did it become racist to be a

2762
01:39:03,500 --> 01:39:03,820
patriot?

2763
01:39:04,180 --> 01:39:06,120
Planning to take to the streets.

2764
01:39:06,500 --> 01:39:08,520
The Australian people have had enough.

2765
01:39:08,740 --> 01:39:10,800
With the backing of real politicians.

2766
01:39:11,360 --> 01:39:13,400
How dare you bring these people to our

2767
01:39:13,400 --> 01:39:16,680
country and then have them be looked after

2768
01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:18,140
by the public purse.

2769
01:39:18,320 --> 01:39:22,220
This nation is sick and tired of migration.

2770
01:39:22,500 --> 01:39:25,380
This is the digital groundswell behind March for

2771
01:39:25,380 --> 01:39:25,940
Australia.

2772
01:39:26,200 --> 01:39:29,200
A planned series of demonstrations next Sunday in

2773
01:39:29,200 --> 01:39:30,220
every state capital.

2774
01:39:30,580 --> 01:39:32,420
Anti-mass migration rallies.

2775
01:39:32,920 --> 01:39:34,920
Sam won't give her real name and would

2776
01:39:34,920 --> 01:39:37,100
only answer our questions in a pre-recorded

2777
01:39:37,100 --> 01:39:40,480
video message posted to her page, but claims

2778
01:39:40,480 --> 01:39:41,800
to be an organiser.

2779
01:39:42,300 --> 01:39:45,680
Myself, as well as every other state organiser,

2780
01:39:46,380 --> 01:39:48,600
is intending for this event to be peaceful,

2781
01:39:49,620 --> 01:39:53,060
non-violent, non-aggressive and just a bunch

2782
01:39:53,060 --> 01:39:55,640
of your average Australians standing up against mass

2783
01:39:55,640 --> 01:39:56,160
immigration.

2784
01:39:56,400 --> 01:39:58,400
There is no clear single leader.

2785
01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:01,680
Many supporters, though, were aligned with anti-lockdown,

2786
01:40:01,860 --> 01:40:03,260
anti-vaccine movements.

2787
01:40:03,340 --> 01:40:04,500
Everyone I know is going.

2788
01:40:04,500 --> 01:40:07,220
There are videos that don't even feature real

2789
01:40:07,220 --> 01:40:07,780
people.

2790
01:40:12,940 --> 01:40:16,620
AI generated clips used to sell the message.

2791
01:40:17,260 --> 01:40:20,440
Security experts say the social media algorithm driven

2792
01:40:20,440 --> 01:40:23,440
momentum is fuelled by scenes globally.

2793
01:40:23,780 --> 01:40:26,100
Immigration raids ordered by the US president in

2794
01:40:26,100 --> 01:40:29,320
America protests against migrants in the UK.

2795
01:40:30,160 --> 01:40:32,140
Yeah, people are sick of it everywhere.

2796
01:40:33,280 --> 01:40:34,140
That's good.

2797
01:40:34,500 --> 01:40:35,320
We'll see how that goes.

2798
01:40:35,420 --> 01:40:36,980
I love the real politicians.

2799
01:40:37,680 --> 01:40:40,800
Like, oh, my God, real politicians are with

2800
01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:41,300
these people.

2801
01:40:41,400 --> 01:40:42,300
We can't have that.

2802
01:40:42,580 --> 01:40:44,840
We should get these real politicians out.

2803
01:40:45,600 --> 01:40:46,480
There's no good.

2804
01:40:50,220 --> 01:40:51,180
All right.

2805
01:40:54,090 --> 01:40:55,010
TikTok clip.

2806
01:40:55,190 --> 01:40:56,070
Only have one.

2807
01:40:57,690 --> 01:40:58,810
We actually have two.

2808
01:40:59,810 --> 01:41:00,470
I thought this.

2809
01:41:00,970 --> 01:41:02,370
I want to play this clip.

2810
01:41:02,410 --> 01:41:03,550
This is a TikTok clip.

2811
01:41:04,190 --> 01:41:06,450
And somebody brought in this is people bitching

2812
01:41:06,450 --> 01:41:07,510
about Joe Rogan.

2813
01:41:08,610 --> 01:41:11,970
And I don't like to necessarily play that

2814
01:41:11,970 --> 01:41:12,450
sort of clip.

2815
01:41:12,590 --> 01:41:14,290
But they're bitching about Joe Rogan because he

2816
01:41:14,290 --> 01:41:16,270
had some a couple of anti-vaxxers on.

2817
01:41:17,050 --> 01:41:19,270
When was this?

2818
01:41:20,030 --> 01:41:21,010
All the time.

2819
01:41:21,130 --> 01:41:21,750
All the time.

2820
01:41:21,830 --> 01:41:23,770
He has anti-vaxxers on all the time.

2821
01:41:23,810 --> 01:41:25,010
He has a lot of anti-vaxxers on.

2822
01:41:25,210 --> 01:41:25,410
Yes.

2823
01:41:25,730 --> 01:41:28,570
But these women, these are two Brits.

2824
01:41:28,650 --> 01:41:29,750
I think there are some podcasts.

2825
01:41:30,110 --> 01:41:31,810
I can't figure out who they are.

2826
01:41:31,810 --> 01:41:33,470
But they post everywhere.

2827
01:41:34,130 --> 01:41:34,910
And so they're going on.

2828
01:41:35,310 --> 01:41:39,750
There's an unbelievable illogic to what they have

2829
01:41:39,750 --> 01:41:40,290
to say.

2830
01:41:40,550 --> 01:41:42,530
But they came up with a new a

2831
01:41:42,530 --> 01:41:45,950
new concept, which I thought was interesting.

2832
01:41:46,250 --> 01:41:48,530
And it is a term called privilege of

2833
01:41:48,530 --> 01:41:49,230
platform.

2834
01:41:51,070 --> 01:41:54,290
And Joe Rogan has this privilege of privilege

2835
01:41:54,290 --> 01:41:57,330
of platform, which means big platform.

2836
01:41:57,610 --> 01:41:57,870
Yeah.

2837
01:41:57,870 --> 01:42:00,710
And of course, this goes along with the

2838
01:42:00,710 --> 01:42:03,290
you shouldn't platform these people.

2839
01:42:04,090 --> 01:42:06,010
Or I this is my favorite.

2840
01:42:06,130 --> 01:42:06,990
Candace Owens does this.

2841
01:42:07,430 --> 01:42:11,390
I won't use my platform to talk about

2842
01:42:11,390 --> 01:42:11,990
these people.

2843
01:42:12,350 --> 01:42:13,490
We have a platform.

2844
01:42:13,630 --> 01:42:14,190
It's tiny.

2845
01:42:15,090 --> 01:42:16,790
But, you know, it's like a diving board,

2846
01:42:16,890 --> 01:42:17,290
basically.

2847
01:42:17,510 --> 01:42:18,570
But we've got a platform.

2848
01:42:18,870 --> 01:42:20,750
Yeah, but our people are the best.

2849
01:42:20,990 --> 01:42:21,430
That's true.

2850
01:42:21,570 --> 01:42:23,470
I do not think some episodes of the

2851
01:42:23,470 --> 01:42:24,830
Joe Rogan experience are OK.

2852
01:42:24,830 --> 01:42:26,590
I have issues with a lot of the

2853
01:42:26,590 --> 01:42:28,250
people that Joe Rogan has interviewed.

2854
01:42:28,690 --> 01:42:30,950
Most specifically, I do not like the fact

2855
01:42:30,950 --> 01:42:33,190
that he reaches into alt right groups and

2856
01:42:33,190 --> 01:42:36,690
platforms people with very racist, very hate filled

2857
01:42:36,690 --> 01:42:37,190
ideas.

2858
01:42:37,470 --> 01:42:39,070
I hate that about his podcast.

2859
01:42:39,330 --> 01:42:41,310
And I really do not like the idea

2860
01:42:41,310 --> 01:42:43,270
that is so widely supported sometimes.

2861
01:42:43,510 --> 01:42:45,710
However, if we are sticking to the issue

2862
01:42:45,710 --> 01:42:48,370
of these two particular podcast episodes that people

2863
01:42:48,370 --> 01:42:52,050
are so upset about recently, my main question

2864
01:42:52,050 --> 01:42:55,430
is what opinions deserve a platform on Joe

2865
01:42:55,430 --> 01:42:56,210
Rogan experience?

2866
01:42:56,730 --> 01:42:59,030
And the main hurdle for me, whenever someone

2867
01:42:59,030 --> 01:43:01,230
shares an opinion on a podcast is, is

2868
01:43:01,230 --> 01:43:03,410
this person qualified to share the opinion that

2869
01:43:03,410 --> 01:43:03,870
they have?

2870
01:43:03,930 --> 01:43:06,350
Is this person considered an expert in their

2871
01:43:06,350 --> 01:43:06,770
field?

2872
01:43:07,410 --> 01:43:09,050
And when we bring up these two episodes

2873
01:43:09,050 --> 01:43:11,950
that have caused this furore, they are actually

2874
01:43:11,950 --> 01:43:14,570
concerning to people who I would deem experts

2875
01:43:14,570 --> 01:43:17,830
because they are a cardiologist and a vaccine

2876
01:43:17,830 --> 01:43:18,390
scientist.

2877
01:43:18,830 --> 01:43:22,430
So it's an interesting conversation because although we

2878
01:43:22,430 --> 01:43:25,290
have two experts who are very educated and

2879
01:43:25,290 --> 01:43:27,750
are very informed in their fields, they are

2880
01:43:27,750 --> 01:43:30,670
two experts who disagree with about 99 percent

2881
01:43:30,670 --> 01:43:32,970
of their peers who are also experts.

2882
01:43:33,170 --> 01:43:34,970
So we kind of have a situation where

2883
01:43:34,970 --> 01:43:36,750
if we had all these experts on this

2884
01:43:36,750 --> 01:43:40,850
particular topic in a room, 997 are saying

2885
01:43:40,850 --> 01:43:43,350
one thing and two or three experts are

2886
01:43:43,350 --> 01:43:43,970
saying another.

2887
01:43:44,210 --> 01:43:45,670
And how the hell do we deal with

2888
01:43:45,670 --> 01:43:45,850
that?

2889
01:43:45,850 --> 01:43:46,210
Yeah.

2890
01:43:46,350 --> 01:43:47,470
And then a lot of people might turn

2891
01:43:47,470 --> 01:43:48,710
around to that and say, OK, well, then

2892
01:43:48,710 --> 01:43:50,330
clearly it's a freedom of speech thing, because

2893
01:43:50,330 --> 01:43:52,710
clearly we need to hear from everyone, from

2894
01:43:52,710 --> 01:43:53,890
all of the experts in the room.

2895
01:43:53,950 --> 01:43:55,490
And I agree with that to some degree.

2896
01:43:55,610 --> 01:43:57,210
But then perhaps it's not as much about

2897
01:43:57,210 --> 01:43:58,910
freedom of speech as it is about privilege

2898
01:43:58,910 --> 01:43:59,570
of platform.

2899
01:43:59,670 --> 01:43:59,830
Right.

2900
01:43:59,910 --> 01:44:01,850
Like this is a huge platform.

2901
01:44:02,810 --> 01:44:03,170
Brother.

2902
01:44:04,430 --> 01:44:06,790
Well, that's kind of the Douglas Murray argument

2903
01:44:06,790 --> 01:44:09,430
about Dave Smith.

2904
01:44:11,810 --> 01:44:14,570
Douglas Murray was when he went on to

2905
01:44:14,570 --> 01:44:15,230
debate.

2906
01:44:16,090 --> 01:44:18,510
Dave Smith is on Joe Rogan again, and

2907
01:44:18,510 --> 01:44:19,970
he's still talking about that debate.

2908
01:44:20,130 --> 01:44:23,530
Like, oh, move on, move on, dude.

2909
01:44:23,610 --> 01:44:25,030
But he's right about one thing.

2910
01:44:25,110 --> 01:44:29,310
Douglas Murray, but he in essence said you

2911
01:44:29,310 --> 01:44:32,310
shouldn't platform people who aren't experts on the

2912
01:44:32,310 --> 01:44:34,990
topic, which is a little bit like what,

2913
01:44:35,370 --> 01:44:37,590
although it's in reverse here, because I guess

2914
01:44:37,590 --> 01:44:39,530
these people did were experts in the field.

2915
01:44:39,570 --> 01:44:41,470
But you shouldn't platform anyone who I disagree

2916
01:44:41,470 --> 01:44:41,850
with.

2917
01:44:41,930 --> 01:44:42,670
That's what they're saying.

2918
01:44:43,490 --> 01:44:45,750
That's basically what the two women are saying.

2919
01:44:47,010 --> 01:44:48,950
OK, you should have experts, but they have

2920
01:44:48,950 --> 01:44:50,890
to be experts that we agree with.

2921
01:44:50,950 --> 01:44:52,390
They have to be experts that are in

2922
01:44:52,390 --> 01:44:53,190
the majority.

2923
01:44:53,750 --> 01:44:55,610
In other words, science, you know, science is

2924
01:44:55,610 --> 01:44:56,530
not a vote.

2925
01:44:57,290 --> 01:44:58,850
You know, you don't you know, it's not

2926
01:44:58,850 --> 01:45:00,450
like, oh, majority rules.

2927
01:45:00,510 --> 01:45:02,630
So that means that science, you know, otherwise

2928
01:45:02,630 --> 01:45:04,690
we'd still be using leeches, I think, to

2929
01:45:04,690 --> 01:45:05,570
cure disease.

2930
01:45:05,850 --> 01:45:08,030
Eight out of 10 doctors say smoking camels

2931
01:45:08,030 --> 01:45:08,890
is good for you.

2932
01:45:09,030 --> 01:45:10,010
It'll help you cough.

2933
01:45:10,410 --> 01:45:11,630
I mean, don't forget that.

2934
01:45:11,630 --> 01:45:12,030
Yes.

2935
01:45:12,250 --> 01:45:13,110
So, yes.

2936
01:45:13,570 --> 01:45:16,970
So these this is all nonsense.

2937
01:45:18,230 --> 01:45:19,510
Joe Rogan is Joe Rogan.

2938
01:45:19,570 --> 01:45:20,990
He gets just put on whoever he feels

2939
01:45:20,990 --> 01:45:21,270
like.

2940
01:45:21,310 --> 01:45:22,270
What difference does it make?

2941
01:45:23,750 --> 01:45:27,710
Well, with the understanding that almost nobody really

2942
01:45:27,710 --> 01:45:31,030
watches mainstream news anymore in the United States,

2943
01:45:31,530 --> 01:45:35,750
there's nobody under 30, maybe even older, who's

2944
01:45:35,750 --> 01:45:37,630
watching network news.

2945
01:45:38,070 --> 01:45:39,490
But, oh, I can't wait to turn on

2946
01:45:39,490 --> 01:45:40,690
the six o'clock news.

2947
01:45:40,690 --> 01:45:43,810
No, there's no the numbers show that no

2948
01:45:43,810 --> 01:45:46,190
one is really watching cable news.

2949
01:45:46,270 --> 01:45:48,010
Certainly not on that age bracket.

2950
01:45:48,250 --> 01:45:50,150
They're all watching Joe Rogan.

2951
01:45:50,970 --> 01:45:53,450
And I think our lucky stars and the

2952
01:45:53,450 --> 01:45:55,430
Holy Spirit that the Gen Z's are coming

2953
01:45:55,430 --> 01:45:55,950
to us.

2954
01:45:56,270 --> 01:45:58,030
They're like, OK, let me just hear what's

2955
01:45:58,030 --> 01:45:59,450
going on in the other world.

2956
01:45:59,730 --> 01:46:03,050
Well, I'm here ranching, ranching and making babies.

2957
01:46:05,730 --> 01:46:07,950
Yeah, spanking my kids when they get out

2958
01:46:07,950 --> 01:46:08,430
of line.

2959
01:46:09,190 --> 01:46:10,030
Yeah, they need to know.

2960
01:46:10,030 --> 01:46:11,110
They need to know what's happening.

2961
01:46:11,510 --> 01:46:13,050
And they come to us to our platform.

2962
01:46:13,310 --> 01:46:14,350
They come to our platform.

2963
01:46:14,970 --> 01:46:15,650
I love it.

2964
01:46:16,150 --> 01:46:17,230
Come to our platform.

2965
01:46:17,370 --> 01:46:18,850
You're welcome here at this platform.

2966
01:46:19,410 --> 01:46:21,630
And with that platform, I want to thank

2967
01:46:21,630 --> 01:46:23,010
you for your courage in the morning to

2968
01:46:23,010 --> 01:46:24,670
you, the man who put the C's in

2969
01:46:24,670 --> 01:46:25,810
the UK cash crunch.

2970
01:46:25,910 --> 01:46:27,490
Say hello to my friend on the other

2971
01:46:27,490 --> 01:46:27,690
end.

2972
01:46:27,710 --> 01:46:30,690
The one, the only Mr. John C.

2973
01:46:33,930 --> 01:46:34,410
DeMora.

2974
01:46:38,050 --> 01:46:43,830
In the morning to the trolls in the

2975
01:46:43,830 --> 01:46:44,470
troll room.

2976
01:46:44,570 --> 01:46:45,470
Let me count you here.

2977
01:46:45,590 --> 01:46:46,130
Hold on a second.

2978
01:46:50,210 --> 01:46:51,350
We're still low.

2979
01:46:51,490 --> 01:46:54,190
Sixteen fifty seven should be about eighteen hundred

2980
01:46:54,190 --> 01:46:54,970
for a Thursday.

2981
01:46:56,210 --> 01:46:57,970
Well, we're short one fifty.

2982
01:46:58,370 --> 01:46:58,910
We are.

2983
01:46:59,090 --> 01:46:59,190
Yeah.

2984
01:46:59,250 --> 01:47:00,590
Is it Labor Day weekend?

2985
01:47:00,730 --> 01:47:01,410
Is that coming up?

2986
01:47:01,510 --> 01:47:02,030
Yeah, it is.

2987
01:47:02,030 --> 01:47:03,170
As a matter of fact, it should be

2988
01:47:03,170 --> 01:47:05,010
a should be it should be a banging

2989
01:47:05,010 --> 01:47:05,970
show on Sunday.

2990
01:47:06,550 --> 01:47:08,910
There'll be nobody listening, by the way.

2991
01:47:09,070 --> 01:47:09,910
At least we're working.

2992
01:47:09,990 --> 01:47:12,050
We're not we're not doing what everyone else

2993
01:47:12,050 --> 01:47:13,610
has been doing, which is taking a week

2994
01:47:13,610 --> 01:47:14,070
off.

2995
01:47:14,990 --> 01:47:15,430
Yeah.

2996
01:47:15,510 --> 01:47:17,690
You know, I got a I got a

2997
01:47:17,690 --> 01:47:18,610
message from somebody.

2998
01:47:18,750 --> 01:47:22,250
It's like, well, you are casting stones at

2999
01:47:22,250 --> 01:47:22,770
others.

3000
01:47:23,390 --> 01:47:26,850
What are you know, some people have to

3001
01:47:26,850 --> 01:47:27,390
work.

3002
01:47:27,590 --> 01:47:28,870
What are you doing?

3003
01:47:28,990 --> 01:47:30,470
What are you running for?

3004
01:47:30,470 --> 01:47:33,990
I'm like, uh, what?

3005
01:47:34,410 --> 01:47:35,990
When I was talking about you should run

3006
01:47:35,990 --> 01:47:38,150
for school board or local city council or

3007
01:47:38,150 --> 01:47:39,350
get involved, get involved.

3008
01:47:39,490 --> 01:47:41,850
It's like some people have to work for

3009
01:47:41,850 --> 01:47:42,190
a living.

3010
01:47:42,210 --> 01:47:45,730
Like, you know, just because it sounds really

3011
01:47:45,730 --> 01:47:47,710
easy, we do.

3012
01:47:47,830 --> 01:47:49,350
This is a full time job.

3013
01:47:49,730 --> 01:47:52,410
And by the way, we have no salary,

3014
01:47:52,510 --> 01:47:55,290
no health care, no pension, no benefits, no

3015
01:47:55,290 --> 01:47:56,830
PTO, no vacation.

3016
01:47:56,830 --> 01:48:00,170
I frequently am doing my my my part

3017
01:48:00,170 --> 01:48:01,430
of the show from vacation.

3018
01:48:02,110 --> 01:48:05,450
There's no financial planning because it's a roller

3019
01:48:05,450 --> 01:48:06,690
coaster of donations.

3020
01:48:06,950 --> 01:48:08,690
What are you talking about?

3021
01:48:09,990 --> 01:48:12,710
You know, I don't know why I came

3022
01:48:12,710 --> 01:48:14,970
up with this is a it's a constant

3023
01:48:14,970 --> 01:48:15,650
struggle.

3024
01:48:15,850 --> 01:48:16,570
That's it.

3025
01:48:16,590 --> 01:48:17,370
It's a struggle.

3026
01:48:17,510 --> 01:48:18,390
That's the point.

3027
01:48:18,890 --> 01:48:21,270
By the way, on the the quad screen,

3028
01:48:21,910 --> 01:48:24,830
the here's the new messaging from the Minneapolis

3029
01:48:24,830 --> 01:48:25,270
shooter.

3030
01:48:25,830 --> 01:48:28,690
The shooter was obsessed with other shooters.

3031
01:48:29,370 --> 01:48:31,650
And yes, this is true and wanted to

3032
01:48:31,650 --> 01:48:32,830
kill children.

3033
01:48:33,930 --> 01:48:36,710
So there's at this moment, we still have

3034
01:48:36,710 --> 01:48:37,550
one of his rifles.

3035
01:48:37,670 --> 01:48:39,230
He had a bunch of shooters names on

3036
01:48:39,230 --> 01:48:39,390
him.

3037
01:48:39,570 --> 01:48:39,990
Yeah, I know.

3038
01:48:40,050 --> 01:48:40,370
I know.

3039
01:48:40,410 --> 01:48:42,810
But what they don't have is the obvious

3040
01:48:42,810 --> 01:48:47,610
transgendering of children, making them.

3041
01:48:47,790 --> 01:48:48,370
We have a pattern.

3042
01:48:48,530 --> 01:48:50,270
We have a proven pattern of this.

3043
01:48:51,070 --> 01:48:53,250
There's that's that's what you're looking for.

3044
01:48:53,810 --> 01:48:56,070
We have a pattern, but that is not

3045
01:48:56,070 --> 01:48:58,130
what your mainstream media is going to tell

3046
01:48:58,130 --> 01:48:58,450
you.

3047
01:48:59,590 --> 01:49:01,530
So come up on our knees here.

3048
01:49:01,590 --> 01:49:03,210
The boomers will tell you what's really happening.

3049
01:49:04,830 --> 01:49:07,410
So the sixteen hundred and fifty seven trolls

3050
01:49:07,410 --> 01:49:07,930
are listening.

3051
01:49:08,150 --> 01:49:10,330
They're listening live troll room dot IO.

3052
01:49:11,270 --> 01:49:13,790
And of course, on the modern podcast, that's

3053
01:49:13,790 --> 01:49:15,570
by the way, let's just go to no

3054
01:49:15,570 --> 01:49:16,970
agenda stream dot com.

3055
01:49:17,170 --> 01:49:17,990
It's the same thing.

3056
01:49:18,090 --> 01:49:20,670
Yeah, no agenda dot stream or no agenda

3057
01:49:20,670 --> 01:49:21,610
stream dot com.

3058
01:49:21,610 --> 01:49:23,850
It's just multiple domain names.

3059
01:49:23,970 --> 01:49:25,210
I like troll room dot IO.

3060
01:49:25,350 --> 01:49:25,950
What's your problem?

3061
01:49:26,610 --> 01:49:28,190
I don't like troll room dot IO.

3062
01:49:28,350 --> 01:49:31,250
I love we've been using this for five

3063
01:49:31,250 --> 01:49:31,630
years.

3064
01:49:31,810 --> 01:49:33,170
Now you tell me you don't like it.

3065
01:49:33,230 --> 01:49:36,610
I've only been showing you how rare it

3066
01:49:36,610 --> 01:49:37,630
is for me to complain.

3067
01:49:40,750 --> 01:49:42,590
OK, I never liked it.

3068
01:49:42,650 --> 01:49:45,810
I like like no agenda stream dot com.

3069
01:49:45,890 --> 01:49:46,830
It's got a branding.

3070
01:49:47,370 --> 01:49:50,050
But do you like us calling the troll

3071
01:49:50,050 --> 01:49:51,510
room, the chat room, the troll room?

3072
01:49:51,510 --> 01:49:52,770
You like that, though, don't you?

3073
01:49:52,890 --> 01:49:53,110
I don't.

3074
01:49:53,210 --> 01:49:54,510
It doesn't bother me one way or the

3075
01:49:54,510 --> 01:49:54,670
other.

3076
01:49:54,730 --> 01:49:55,170
Oh, OK.

3077
01:49:55,970 --> 01:49:57,310
But I did want to say there's a

3078
01:49:57,310 --> 01:50:01,010
brand new podcasting two point app, two point

3079
01:50:01,010 --> 01:50:03,930
zero app out, which is Pod Home available.

3080
01:50:04,650 --> 01:50:05,050
Pod Home.

3081
01:50:05,290 --> 01:50:05,990
Yes, from Barry.

3082
01:50:06,290 --> 01:50:09,470
Barry is Dutch and Barry built Pod Home.

3083
01:50:09,710 --> 01:50:12,410
He has a hosting company, which he runs

3084
01:50:12,410 --> 01:50:13,050
by himself.

3085
01:50:13,430 --> 01:50:15,290
But he also has a brand new app.

3086
01:50:15,310 --> 01:50:15,910
It's good.

3087
01:50:16,190 --> 01:50:18,110
He has something called Podcast Pulse.

3088
01:50:19,410 --> 01:50:23,430
And this pertains to the bat signal that

3089
01:50:23,430 --> 01:50:26,170
we have in the two point apps where,

3090
01:50:26,450 --> 01:50:27,710
first of all, you can listen to a

3091
01:50:27,710 --> 01:50:29,230
live stream, a live show.

3092
01:50:29,490 --> 01:50:31,470
And we have the bat signal which alerts

3093
01:50:31,470 --> 01:50:32,630
you when we go live.

3094
01:50:32,710 --> 01:50:34,390
And you just in your podcast app, you

3095
01:50:34,390 --> 01:50:35,010
just click on it.

3096
01:50:35,050 --> 01:50:36,610
Boom, you're listening to the live stream.

3097
01:50:36,850 --> 01:50:37,610
And is it beep?

3098
01:50:38,750 --> 01:50:40,290
Depends on what you have said as a

3099
01:50:40,290 --> 01:50:41,530
I mean, you don't know how a phone

3100
01:50:41,530 --> 01:50:41,870
works.

3101
01:50:41,870 --> 01:50:43,670
But yeah, these modern phones, they can give

3102
01:50:43,670 --> 01:50:44,270
you an alert.

3103
01:50:45,050 --> 01:50:46,350
You might have seen it.

3104
01:50:46,350 --> 01:50:48,030
A little little thing comes from the top

3105
01:50:48,030 --> 01:50:48,870
and you get a little peep.

3106
01:50:48,950 --> 01:50:50,290
And whatever you set it to.

3107
01:50:50,430 --> 01:50:50,550
Yes.

3108
01:50:50,690 --> 01:50:52,310
Is it different than a message?

3109
01:50:52,710 --> 01:50:55,130
You can have it function differently.

3110
01:50:55,250 --> 01:50:55,830
You can have it.

3111
01:50:57,170 --> 01:50:57,570
Yeah.

3112
01:50:57,970 --> 01:51:00,250
Hey, Stooge, the podcast is beginning.

3113
01:51:00,350 --> 01:51:01,290
Get on the phone.

3114
01:51:01,670 --> 01:51:02,650
You can do something like that.

3115
01:51:02,690 --> 01:51:02,790
Yeah.

3116
01:51:02,830 --> 01:51:05,010
In fact, I'm going to ISO that people

3117
01:51:05,010 --> 01:51:05,790
could use that.

3118
01:51:05,810 --> 01:51:07,450
So you could actually set that as your

3119
01:51:07,450 --> 01:51:09,550
alarm tone when we when we go live.

3120
01:51:09,610 --> 01:51:10,210
That's possible.

3121
01:51:10,670 --> 01:51:13,070
And of course, when we publish within 90

3122
01:51:13,070 --> 01:51:15,570
seconds, you know that the podcast has been

3123
01:51:15,570 --> 01:51:15,950
updated.

3124
01:51:16,110 --> 01:51:18,210
These legacy apps, you know, sometimes wait 15

3125
01:51:18,210 --> 01:51:20,250
minutes or hours at times when things go

3126
01:51:20,250 --> 01:51:20,530
wrong.

3127
01:51:21,210 --> 01:51:23,550
This is because of the pod ping infrastructure

3128
01:51:23,550 --> 01:51:26,030
of 2.0. And what Barry did is

3129
01:51:26,030 --> 01:51:28,610
he has this kind of new feature that

3130
01:51:28,610 --> 01:51:29,430
he put in his app.

3131
01:51:29,790 --> 01:51:31,470
I think he calls it podcast pulse.

3132
01:51:31,790 --> 01:51:34,230
And so you you go into the podcast

3133
01:51:34,230 --> 01:51:36,610
pulse section of the app and it just

3134
01:51:36,610 --> 01:51:38,970
shows you, boom, every app that updates.

3135
01:51:39,030 --> 01:51:40,790
And sometimes there's three per second.

3136
01:51:40,790 --> 01:51:44,630
It's really cool to discover podcasts, boom, boom,

3137
01:51:44,870 --> 01:51:45,110
boom.

3138
01:51:45,310 --> 01:51:47,450
Just go flying by and there's a trail

3139
01:51:47,450 --> 01:51:48,850
and it's fun.

3140
01:51:48,930 --> 01:51:51,010
It's a it's a fun way to discover

3141
01:51:51,010 --> 01:51:51,750
new podcasts.

3142
01:51:52,230 --> 01:51:53,790
But you just want to subscribe to the

3143
01:51:53,790 --> 01:51:56,930
No Agenda podcast and you'll be alerted appropriately.

3144
01:51:57,730 --> 01:51:58,410
Value for value.

3145
01:51:58,430 --> 01:51:59,530
We were talking about it earlier.

3146
01:52:00,250 --> 01:52:02,430
The only way we've ever made money on

3147
01:52:02,430 --> 01:52:06,170
this show is by your value that you

3148
01:52:06,170 --> 01:52:07,290
return to the program.

3149
01:52:07,430 --> 01:52:10,030
We've never taken any money from corporate interest.

3150
01:52:10,030 --> 01:52:11,810
Never had any commercials.

3151
01:52:12,410 --> 01:52:14,110
We knew that that would never last.

3152
01:52:14,170 --> 01:52:14,830
And here we are.

3153
01:52:14,970 --> 01:52:17,070
We'll be 18 years in October.

3154
01:52:17,370 --> 01:52:20,090
Our 1800th episode is coming up.

3155
01:52:20,650 --> 01:52:21,310
So what is that?

3156
01:52:21,390 --> 01:52:23,010
About 100 episodes a year, I guess.

3157
01:52:24,730 --> 01:52:25,810
Yeah, about that.

3158
01:52:25,910 --> 01:52:26,290
Two a week.

3159
01:52:26,290 --> 01:52:27,750
Well, 52 weeks out of the year would

3160
01:52:27,750 --> 01:52:29,090
be 104 to be exact.

3161
01:52:29,350 --> 01:52:31,010
Yeah, well, we didn't start off with two

3162
01:52:31,010 --> 01:52:31,510
episodes.

3163
01:52:32,430 --> 01:52:34,890
So we went to two episodes later.

3164
01:52:36,510 --> 01:52:38,790
And you can support us with your time,

3165
01:52:39,330 --> 01:52:41,210
your talent or your treasure.

3166
01:52:41,610 --> 01:52:43,090
Boots on the ground are always welcome.

3167
01:52:43,410 --> 01:52:45,970
Of course, we have prompt jockeys who are

3168
01:52:45,970 --> 01:52:48,030
very good at prompting art.

3169
01:52:48,630 --> 01:52:51,350
Of course, your results may vary depending on

3170
01:52:51,350 --> 01:52:53,090
the model that you use.

3171
01:52:53,130 --> 01:52:54,050
You should have real artists.

3172
01:52:54,490 --> 01:52:55,190
They're all dead.

3173
01:52:56,010 --> 01:52:58,250
The Dutch masters are in fact now dead

3174
01:52:58,250 --> 01:52:59,010
Dutch masters.

3175
01:52:59,170 --> 01:53:01,110
They've all left us because they couldn't compete.

3176
01:53:01,690 --> 01:53:04,590
And it's sad because they were actually quite

3177
01:53:04,590 --> 01:53:04,850
good.

3178
01:53:04,850 --> 01:53:06,250
But I have to say, when you look

3179
01:53:06,250 --> 01:53:08,950
at Darren O'Neill's artwork for episode 1793,

3180
01:53:09,110 --> 01:53:11,850
which we titled Retribution, it was good.

3181
01:53:12,370 --> 01:53:15,470
Now, it was still kind of the luminance

3182
01:53:15,470 --> 01:53:18,110
was down because the model he's using is

3183
01:53:18,110 --> 01:53:20,490
edging towards model collapse.

3184
01:53:20,610 --> 01:53:23,410
So there's no bright colors.

3185
01:53:23,750 --> 01:53:26,210
But because of that, the intent of making

3186
01:53:26,210 --> 01:53:28,990
it look like a movie poster, which was

3187
01:53:28,990 --> 01:53:32,930
the attack of the radioactive shrimp, it really

3188
01:53:32,930 --> 01:53:33,570
hit the mark.

3189
01:53:33,630 --> 01:53:34,630
It was well done.

3190
01:53:34,850 --> 01:53:35,510
We liked it.

3191
01:53:35,550 --> 01:53:37,510
You got the planes flying overhead.

3192
01:53:38,490 --> 01:53:41,250
You got the giant radioactive shrimp.

3193
01:53:41,750 --> 01:53:43,310
People running away scared.

3194
01:53:43,850 --> 01:53:46,510
Some of them apparently wearing Nazi uniforms with

3195
01:53:46,510 --> 01:53:47,310
Nazi hats.

3196
01:53:47,390 --> 01:53:48,550
I'm not sure what that was about.

3197
01:53:49,370 --> 01:53:51,490
Some of the planes look a little strange.

3198
01:53:52,450 --> 01:53:53,470
But hey, you know, it's AI.

3199
01:53:54,010 --> 01:53:54,910
We liked it.

3200
01:53:55,010 --> 01:53:56,190
It was a good piece.

3201
01:53:56,290 --> 01:53:57,950
We looked at a couple others going to

3202
01:53:57,950 --> 01:54:01,930
knowagendaartgenerator.com where everybody can participate.

3203
01:54:01,930 --> 01:54:04,810
Let me see what else we had in

3204
01:54:04,810 --> 01:54:05,090
there.

3205
01:54:05,230 --> 01:54:05,690
We had...

3206
01:54:10,250 --> 01:54:11,130
Man, Cervant.

3207
01:54:11,390 --> 01:54:13,370
Cervant, you got to use another model.

3208
01:54:13,590 --> 01:54:15,010
Your model has collapsed.

3209
01:54:15,630 --> 01:54:19,550
It's literally like you put on sunglasses looking...

3210
01:54:19,550 --> 01:54:21,330
And you see that one with the pickup

3211
01:54:21,330 --> 01:54:21,790
truck?

3212
01:54:22,170 --> 01:54:23,190
What's the name of it?

3213
01:54:23,410 --> 01:54:25,910
Oh, that pickup truck is so dull.

3214
01:54:26,070 --> 01:54:26,830
Yeah, it's dim.

3215
01:54:26,990 --> 01:54:27,670
It's just dim.

3216
01:54:28,150 --> 01:54:29,190
Yeah, I mean, it's dim.

3217
01:54:29,190 --> 01:54:33,070
I liked Geoffrey Rhea's radioactive shrimp.

3218
01:54:33,830 --> 01:54:35,030
I thought it was kind of cute.

3219
01:54:35,110 --> 01:54:36,490
He had a shrimp with all kinds of

3220
01:54:36,490 --> 01:54:38,710
radioactive signs around it.

3221
01:54:38,710 --> 01:54:39,650
Yeah, that was a good piece.

3222
01:54:39,790 --> 01:54:40,730
It was definitely...

3223
01:54:40,730 --> 01:54:41,410
That could have won.

3224
01:54:41,530 --> 01:54:42,070
Could have won.

3225
01:54:45,170 --> 01:54:46,490
I don't think there was...

3226
01:54:46,490 --> 01:54:47,370
There wasn't that much.

3227
01:54:47,610 --> 01:54:50,590
Uganda, another Geoffrey Rhea, Ray Rhea.

3228
01:54:52,850 --> 01:54:53,250
Dogs.

3229
01:54:53,690 --> 01:54:54,710
No, I think you got it all.

3230
01:54:54,890 --> 01:54:55,490
That was it.

3231
01:54:55,570 --> 01:54:56,890
It was underwhelming.

3232
01:54:58,050 --> 01:54:58,450
Underwhelming.

3233
01:54:58,450 --> 01:54:59,950
The jump, the shark.

3234
01:55:00,070 --> 01:55:01,570
We had a dude named Ben with a

3235
01:55:01,570 --> 01:55:04,170
microphone with a dead cat on it.

3236
01:55:04,810 --> 01:55:05,670
And then there's always...

3237
01:55:05,670 --> 01:55:06,830
Oh, by the way, I want to make

3238
01:55:06,830 --> 01:55:07,470
that correction.

3239
01:55:07,950 --> 01:55:09,350
It's not a Rode mic.

3240
01:55:10,270 --> 01:55:13,030
It is a DJI mic.

3241
01:55:13,170 --> 01:55:14,230
Somebody sent me a...

3242
01:55:14,230 --> 01:55:15,450
One of the producers corrected that.

3243
01:55:15,450 --> 01:55:17,290
Well, there's two versions.

3244
01:55:17,610 --> 01:55:20,070
There is definitely a Rode mic used a

3245
01:55:20,070 --> 01:55:20,450
lot.

3246
01:55:21,210 --> 01:55:22,850
Yeah, well, this DJI mic is the one

3247
01:55:22,850 --> 01:55:23,570
I was talking about.

3248
01:55:23,730 --> 01:55:24,290
And it comes...

3249
01:55:24,290 --> 01:55:26,830
You see it so much because it comes

3250
01:55:26,830 --> 01:55:30,550
with a video recorder as a kit.

3251
01:55:31,390 --> 01:55:35,190
And so it's like a vlogger, vlogger kit.

3252
01:55:36,370 --> 01:55:38,690
And so you had this stupid little mic,

3253
01:55:38,890 --> 01:55:39,570
which is...

3254
01:55:39,570 --> 01:55:40,890
A vlogger kit.

3255
01:55:41,050 --> 01:55:44,130
A vlogger kit with a wireless little square

3256
01:55:44,130 --> 01:55:46,390
mic, which looks idiotic.

3257
01:55:46,650 --> 01:55:48,310
You know, the vlogger kit should come with

3258
01:55:48,310 --> 01:55:50,450
that Parallels app so that you can look

3259
01:55:50,450 --> 01:55:51,090
really good.

3260
01:55:51,090 --> 01:55:53,770
I got my kit and I've got 50

3261
01:55:53,770 --> 01:55:55,550
,000 people watching me live.

3262
01:55:55,650 --> 01:55:57,330
I'm alive, my Insta live, baby.

3263
01:55:58,090 --> 01:55:59,870
I also want to make another mea culpa.

3264
01:56:00,430 --> 01:56:04,470
Yes, Adlai Stevenson was involved in some way

3265
01:56:05,090 --> 01:56:10,970
with the Khrushchev showdown with the missile crisis

3266
01:56:10,970 --> 01:56:13,150
because he was the UN ambassador at the

3267
01:56:13,150 --> 01:56:13,550
time.

3268
01:56:13,790 --> 01:56:16,570
I was corrected by three different producers on

3269
01:56:16,570 --> 01:56:16,970
that.

3270
01:56:17,090 --> 01:56:17,770
Oh, blimey.

3271
01:56:18,110 --> 01:56:19,390
So I have to mention that.

3272
01:56:19,390 --> 01:56:21,370
And then I also have to mention that

3273
01:56:21,370 --> 01:56:23,810
somebody did point out that there's about six

3274
01:56:23,810 --> 01:56:26,090
states that allow open containers in the car.

3275
01:56:26,230 --> 01:56:30,350
And Texas, until 1980, allowed you to have

3276
01:56:30,350 --> 01:56:31,590
beer in the car open.

3277
01:56:32,370 --> 01:56:33,310
And they used to have...

3278
01:56:33,310 --> 01:56:34,690
Because I remember this because you used to

3279
01:56:34,690 --> 01:56:37,310
be able to drive through a liquor store,

3280
01:56:37,370 --> 01:56:38,930
they had drive-through outlets and they'd give

3281
01:56:38,930 --> 01:56:40,210
you a beer and you could go in

3282
01:56:40,210 --> 01:56:40,570
your car.

3283
01:56:40,730 --> 01:56:43,370
But the discussion was...

3284
01:56:43,370 --> 01:56:44,610
And you would do this to me.

3285
01:56:45,070 --> 01:56:47,710
You said, can't you have open container in

3286
01:56:47,710 --> 01:56:48,450
the car in Texas?

3287
01:56:48,450 --> 01:56:49,270
And I said, no.

3288
01:56:49,810 --> 01:56:50,990
So I was right.

3289
01:56:51,490 --> 01:56:53,490
And you can't now say, used to be

3290
01:56:53,490 --> 01:56:54,050
that way.

3291
01:56:54,890 --> 01:56:56,190
Because you're kind of trying to do that.

3292
01:56:56,190 --> 01:56:57,490
No, but I claim that I knew about

3293
01:56:57,490 --> 01:56:59,050
this in the past and you deny that

3294
01:56:59,050 --> 01:56:59,830
it ever existed.

3295
01:56:59,850 --> 01:57:00,310
Ah, there it is.

3296
01:57:00,350 --> 01:57:01,390
As long as I'm wrong.

3297
01:57:01,510 --> 01:57:01,810
Okay.

3298
01:57:01,990 --> 01:57:02,710
You are wrong.

3299
01:57:02,790 --> 01:57:03,850
You are dead wrong.

3300
01:57:03,990 --> 01:57:05,590
I am right on all counts.

3301
01:57:05,930 --> 01:57:07,450
Don't make me call my lieutenant at the

3302
01:57:07,450 --> 01:57:08,230
sheriff's office.

3303
01:57:08,950 --> 01:57:09,430
Come over there.

3304
01:57:09,470 --> 01:57:11,610
Well, he's not going to drive over here

3305
01:57:11,610 --> 01:57:13,190
to run out of gas.

3306
01:57:13,950 --> 01:57:16,290
His electric car will be dead before he

3307
01:57:16,290 --> 01:57:17,150
gets out of Texas.

3308
01:57:17,150 --> 01:57:19,110
No, he won't be able to afford gas

3309
01:57:19,110 --> 01:57:19,950
in your state.

3310
01:57:20,670 --> 01:57:21,510
That's the problem.

3311
01:57:22,070 --> 01:57:22,630
What are you at?

3312
01:57:22,690 --> 01:57:23,970
10 bucks a gallon now?

3313
01:57:24,570 --> 01:57:25,010
Five.

3314
01:57:25,910 --> 01:57:26,350
Really?

3315
01:57:27,270 --> 01:57:27,710
Yeah.

3316
01:57:27,830 --> 01:57:27,990
Wow.

3317
01:57:28,050 --> 01:57:28,810
That's way down.

3318
01:57:29,550 --> 01:57:30,690
It's not way down.

3319
01:57:30,810 --> 01:57:31,830
It's been five forever.

3320
01:57:32,010 --> 01:57:32,730
It's too high.

3321
01:57:33,010 --> 01:57:34,070
It should be three.

3322
01:57:34,610 --> 01:57:36,210
Well, no, I know it's too high, but

3323
01:57:36,210 --> 01:57:38,150
you know, it's your taxes, man.

3324
01:57:38,710 --> 01:57:39,290
Enjoy it.

3325
01:57:39,690 --> 01:57:41,010
No, it's not the taxes.

3326
01:57:41,290 --> 01:57:43,710
It's a combination of ridiculous...

3327
01:57:43,710 --> 01:57:45,170
My favorite thing, which is they...

3328
01:57:46,210 --> 01:57:47,310
Don't get me started.

3329
01:57:48,090 --> 01:57:50,110
First, they always have a tax on the

3330
01:57:50,110 --> 01:57:52,030
gasoline to pay for highways, and they put

3331
01:57:52,030 --> 01:57:54,370
a special bill to put more tax on

3332
01:57:54,370 --> 01:57:55,830
the gas to pay for highways when you

3333
01:57:55,830 --> 01:57:56,530
already have it.

3334
01:57:56,790 --> 01:57:58,470
And then the other thing is the blend

3335
01:57:58,470 --> 01:58:02,150
of gasolines that they use is very specific

3336
01:58:02,150 --> 01:58:03,030
to California.

3337
01:58:03,690 --> 01:58:05,950
And so this special blend that only about

3338
01:58:05,950 --> 01:58:09,250
five refineries can even make includes the Richmond

3339
01:58:09,250 --> 01:58:12,890
refinery and over here in Richmond, obviously, there's

3340
01:58:12,890 --> 01:58:16,010
Chevron refinery, which is going to shut down

3341
01:58:17,330 --> 01:58:20,130
because California can't keep a refinery in the

3342
01:58:20,130 --> 01:58:22,070
state without driving them out of business.

3343
01:58:22,390 --> 01:58:24,710
And so who knows what the price of

3344
01:58:24,710 --> 01:58:26,470
the gasoline is going to be after Chevron

3345
01:58:26,470 --> 01:58:28,270
shuts down their Richmond refinery.

3346
01:58:28,630 --> 01:58:30,270
The whole thing's a disaster.

3347
01:58:30,610 --> 01:58:30,710
Yeah.

3348
01:58:31,050 --> 01:58:31,530
California.

3349
01:58:31,910 --> 01:58:32,330
Exactly.

3350
01:58:32,570 --> 01:58:33,170
Uber, Ulis.

3351
01:58:33,490 --> 01:58:34,590
No, it's not California.

3352
01:58:34,750 --> 01:58:35,490
It's Newsome.

3353
01:58:36,050 --> 01:58:36,410
Okay.

3354
01:58:37,170 --> 01:58:38,450
Who was he voted in by?

3355
01:58:38,950 --> 01:58:40,170
Californians who love him.

3356
01:58:40,290 --> 01:58:41,830
They love their policies.

3357
01:58:41,830 --> 01:58:44,130
I don't even believe that to be true.

3358
01:58:44,290 --> 01:58:45,550
Well, there's something wrong with it.

3359
01:58:45,550 --> 01:58:47,930
I think the elections have been rigged for

3360
01:58:47,930 --> 01:58:50,470
decades.

3361
01:58:50,690 --> 01:58:51,390
Yeah, probably.

3362
01:58:51,790 --> 01:58:52,350
California.

3363
01:58:52,590 --> 01:58:53,030
There you go.

3364
01:58:53,910 --> 01:58:55,590
You can say it all you want.

3365
01:58:55,670 --> 01:58:56,310
It's California.

3366
01:58:58,050 --> 01:59:01,210
Anyway, so now we get to the part

3367
01:59:01,210 --> 01:59:02,930
where we thank our producers.

3368
01:59:02,990 --> 01:59:05,170
We always thank everybody.

3369
01:59:05,370 --> 01:59:06,290
And it's sincere.

3370
01:59:06,490 --> 01:59:09,410
We are very, very grateful that people support

3371
01:59:09,410 --> 01:59:11,930
us because it's all we have.

3372
01:59:12,470 --> 01:59:13,630
It's all we do.

3373
01:59:14,430 --> 01:59:17,050
And we thank everybody, $50 and above.

3374
01:59:17,150 --> 01:59:19,490
Never below $50 because people want a limit

3375
01:59:19,490 --> 01:59:20,950
where they know that they are going to

3376
01:59:20,950 --> 01:59:21,550
be anonymous.

3377
01:59:21,830 --> 01:59:23,570
And for some reason, people want to be

3378
01:59:23,570 --> 01:59:23,930
anonymous.

3379
01:59:24,850 --> 01:59:26,290
I've never really understood why.

3380
01:59:26,370 --> 01:59:28,710
Are they afraid that someone's going to find

3381
01:59:28,710 --> 01:59:28,970
out?

3382
01:59:29,230 --> 01:59:30,590
I mean, of all the things you could

3383
01:59:30,590 --> 01:59:32,570
be listening to, are we really a problem?

3384
01:59:35,280 --> 01:59:36,480
You ever wonder about that?

3385
01:59:39,100 --> 01:59:41,020
This goes back a number of years.

3386
01:59:41,020 --> 01:59:42,180
I've talked about this before.

3387
01:59:42,260 --> 01:59:44,620
There was a little Cockney girl that used

3388
01:59:44,620 --> 01:59:45,360
to be on the E!

3389
01:59:45,500 --> 01:59:45,640
News.

3390
01:59:46,920 --> 01:59:49,040
And I was in LA once and having

3391
01:59:49,040 --> 01:59:51,780
lunch with a producer of E!

3392
01:59:51,820 --> 01:59:52,060
News.

3393
01:59:52,240 --> 01:59:53,520
And she was at the table.

3394
01:59:53,720 --> 01:59:56,160
And I introduced her to the show.

3395
01:59:56,980 --> 01:59:58,680
And I said, you should listen to the

3396
01:59:58,680 --> 01:59:58,800
show.

3397
01:59:58,920 --> 01:59:59,120
Okay.

3398
01:59:59,640 --> 02:00:00,820
And so she listened to the show.

3399
02:00:00,880 --> 02:00:03,220
She listened to the show once and never

3400
02:00:03,220 --> 02:00:06,220
listened again, thinking, and I tried to get

3401
02:00:06,220 --> 02:00:06,740
some feedback.

3402
02:00:06,860 --> 02:00:08,020
Why did she stop listening to the show?

3403
02:00:08,280 --> 02:00:10,160
She was afraid she was going to be

3404
02:00:10,160 --> 02:00:10,720
arrested.

3405
02:00:12,120 --> 02:00:14,000
Because she is a green card holder.

3406
02:00:14,160 --> 02:00:15,720
And she didn't think that it was right

3407
02:00:15,720 --> 02:00:17,100
to be listening to this show.

3408
02:00:19,380 --> 02:00:20,200
Good on you.

3409
02:00:20,280 --> 02:00:22,080
And don't burn flags while you're at it,

3410
02:00:22,220 --> 02:00:22,760
Cockney girl.

3411
02:00:24,440 --> 02:00:27,000
Then we always have a special thank you

3412
02:00:27,000 --> 02:00:29,700
for people of means who are able to

3413
02:00:29,700 --> 02:00:32,700
support us in the level of Hollywood producers.

3414
02:00:33,340 --> 02:00:34,580
And it's not for everybody.

3415
02:00:34,700 --> 02:00:36,800
And we're just as happy with whatever value

3416
02:00:36,800 --> 02:00:38,200
you want to give back to the show.

3417
02:00:39,000 --> 02:00:39,880
NoagendaDonations.com.

3418
02:00:39,960 --> 02:00:40,740
It's super simple.

3419
02:00:41,320 --> 02:00:43,400
But if you are able to support us

3420
02:00:43,400 --> 02:00:45,860
with $200 or more, we reward you with

3421
02:00:45,860 --> 02:00:47,740
an Associate Executive Producer title.

3422
02:00:47,900 --> 02:00:50,100
It is a true Hollywood title, which means

3423
02:00:50,100 --> 02:00:52,780
you can use it anywhere Hollywood style credits

3424
02:00:52,780 --> 02:00:56,080
are recognized, including imdb.com, which is legit.

3425
02:00:56,760 --> 02:00:58,760
And if anyone questions you, of course, we

3426
02:00:58,760 --> 02:00:59,680
will go to bat for you.

3427
02:00:59,720 --> 02:01:00,500
We'll vouch for you.

3428
02:01:00,980 --> 02:01:04,080
Now, if you are able to support us

3429
02:01:04,080 --> 02:01:06,380
with $300 or more, you get an Executive

3430
02:01:06,380 --> 02:01:07,180
Producer title.

3431
02:01:07,440 --> 02:01:10,000
And of course, the same adheres to that.

3432
02:01:10,000 --> 02:01:11,880
And in both cases, we will read your

3433
02:01:11,880 --> 02:01:12,240
note.

3434
02:01:12,980 --> 02:01:18,460
We also have our Secretary General Limited Promotion.

3435
02:01:18,620 --> 02:01:19,060
Is it limited?

3436
02:01:19,280 --> 02:01:20,780
Are you limiting this?

3437
02:01:20,840 --> 02:01:21,640
We should limit that.

3438
02:01:21,880 --> 02:01:22,860
Everything gets limited.

3439
02:01:23,100 --> 02:01:23,240
Okay.

3440
02:01:23,760 --> 02:01:25,900
Our Limited Promotion, where you can become a

3441
02:01:25,900 --> 02:01:28,680
Secretary General of anything you want, which is

3442
02:01:28,680 --> 02:01:31,680
no different from Secretary General of NATO, Secretary

3443
02:01:31,680 --> 02:01:32,940
General of the UN.

3444
02:01:33,740 --> 02:01:35,340
You can be a Secretary General.

3445
02:01:35,440 --> 02:01:37,920
And it comes with an official Secretary General.

3446
02:01:37,920 --> 02:01:41,440
What is the term for this certificate?

3447
02:01:42,060 --> 02:01:42,620
This...

3448
02:01:43,740 --> 02:01:44,740
We don't give a decade.

3449
02:01:44,740 --> 02:01:45,020
Proclamation.

3450
02:01:45,400 --> 02:01:46,060
Is it a proclamation?

3451
02:01:46,380 --> 02:01:47,200
A proclamation.

3452
02:01:47,380 --> 02:01:47,780
There you go.

3453
02:01:48,220 --> 02:01:48,420
Exactly.

3454
02:01:49,820 --> 02:01:50,780
Hereby proclaim.

3455
02:01:51,120 --> 02:01:53,460
And one will go to Paul from Bellevue,

3456
02:01:53,720 --> 02:01:56,840
Washington, and he sent us a note, which

3457
02:01:56,840 --> 02:01:57,920
I have here.

3458
02:01:58,280 --> 02:02:00,540
He sent us $1,000 and says, Dear

3459
02:02:00,540 --> 02:02:02,980
Adam and John, please refer to me as

3460
02:02:02,980 --> 02:02:05,340
Tall Paul of Bellevue, Washington.

3461
02:02:05,340 --> 02:02:08,960
Enclose this $1,000 to insinuate me as

3462
02:02:08,960 --> 02:02:10,040
Sir Tall Paul.

3463
02:02:10,540 --> 02:02:11,860
If not too late, I'd like to be

3464
02:02:11,860 --> 02:02:16,400
Secretary General of Alpenthal at Squalami.

3465
02:02:17,540 --> 02:02:19,360
Snoke, Snoke, Squalami.

3466
02:02:19,580 --> 02:02:20,400
Snoke, Squalami.

3467
02:02:21,580 --> 02:02:23,560
Alpenthal at Snoke, Squalami.

3468
02:02:24,380 --> 02:02:25,940
They're just doing this because I have to

3469
02:02:25,940 --> 02:02:26,260
do it.

3470
02:02:26,320 --> 02:02:27,060
And it's tongue twister.

3471
02:02:27,700 --> 02:02:29,440
That's why these people do that.

3472
02:02:29,480 --> 02:02:30,040
It's just mean.

3473
02:02:30,200 --> 02:02:30,900
Dedoosh me, please.

3474
02:02:32,580 --> 02:02:34,420
You've been dedooshed.

3475
02:02:35,340 --> 02:02:37,880
And he wants some company selling karma, which

3476
02:02:37,880 --> 02:02:38,460
he needs.

3477
02:02:38,600 --> 02:02:40,820
Well, we'll give you some company selling karma.

3478
02:02:40,940 --> 02:02:41,940
He says, thank you very much.

3479
02:02:42,000 --> 02:02:46,320
From Tall Paul, soon to be Sir Tall

3480
02:02:46,320 --> 02:02:49,760
Paul of, well, he'd be a Secretary General.

3481
02:02:49,960 --> 02:02:50,980
So thank you very much.

3482
02:02:53,160 --> 02:02:54,780
You've got karma.

3483
02:02:56,180 --> 02:03:00,980
And we have Commodore SX-64 in Granger,

3484
02:03:01,400 --> 02:03:01,920
Texas.

3485
02:03:02,740 --> 02:03:03,080
Texas.

3486
02:03:03,720 --> 02:03:05,400
Five, five, five.

3487
02:03:06,660 --> 02:03:07,780
Uh, okay.

3488
02:03:08,500 --> 02:03:09,940
Commodore SX-64 here.

3489
02:03:10,040 --> 02:03:10,860
I tried doing it in Texas.

3490
02:03:11,100 --> 02:03:12,140
I can't talk through my teeth.

3491
02:03:12,200 --> 02:03:14,640
This donation should make me a Secretary General

3492
02:03:14,640 --> 02:03:17,300
and a knight at the same time.

3493
02:03:17,780 --> 02:03:21,440
I assume I could be a Sir Commodore

3494
02:03:21,440 --> 02:03:26,080
S-64 Secretary General of Lake Granger.

3495
02:03:26,680 --> 02:03:27,540
Lake Granger?

3496
02:03:27,740 --> 02:03:28,300
Is it Granger?

3497
02:03:28,460 --> 02:03:30,500
Lake Granger area in Milam County.

3498
02:03:31,360 --> 02:03:32,200
Where's that?

3499
02:03:33,540 --> 02:03:35,360
Milam County is not too far from here.

3500
02:03:36,140 --> 02:03:37,820
If you could find it in your heart

3501
02:03:37,820 --> 02:03:40,600
to send good paying jobs karma for me.

3502
02:03:41,360 --> 02:03:42,800
Good paying jobs karma.

3503
02:03:43,280 --> 02:03:46,120
And the young family of fishermen that have

3504
02:03:46,120 --> 02:03:47,720
made, oh, he must be on the coast.

3505
02:03:47,980 --> 02:03:49,800
They made the move north to dry land.

3506
02:03:49,880 --> 02:03:50,460
Oh, he's okay.

3507
02:03:50,540 --> 02:03:51,400
No, he's not on the coast.

3508
02:03:51,800 --> 02:03:52,940
He's in dry land now.

3509
02:03:53,420 --> 02:03:54,300
That'd be great.

3510
02:03:54,780 --> 02:03:58,540
And Lou Patkins' help has been involved as

3511
02:03:58,540 --> 02:03:59,100
well.

3512
02:03:59,240 --> 02:03:59,720
Wow.

3513
02:04:00,280 --> 02:04:00,720
Nice.

3514
02:04:01,160 --> 02:04:01,540
Nice.

3515
02:04:02,120 --> 02:04:03,040
Lou Patkins.

3516
02:04:03,120 --> 02:04:07,700
She's also helping Brennan, who got laid off

3517
02:04:07,700 --> 02:04:10,080
from Chevron, who's leaving the state.

3518
02:04:10,780 --> 02:04:12,320
So now the kids are moving back in

3519
02:04:12,320 --> 02:04:12,700
with you?

3520
02:04:13,540 --> 02:04:14,460
No, they got a place.

3521
02:04:14,960 --> 02:04:17,820
I have deep manufacturing background and the turnaround

3522
02:04:17,820 --> 02:04:18,340
to it.

3523
02:04:18,480 --> 02:04:19,920
They also gave him six months severance.

3524
02:04:20,500 --> 02:04:22,900
Turnaround to a productive society is going to

3525
02:04:22,900 --> 02:04:24,540
take a long time after all, at least

3526
02:04:24,540 --> 02:04:27,680
the last three generations have been conditioned by

3527
02:04:27,680 --> 02:04:27,920
the...

3528
02:04:30,560 --> 02:04:35,520
Excuse me, education system that makes anything physical

3529
02:04:35,520 --> 02:04:36,940
a bad thing.

3530
02:04:37,760 --> 02:04:38,860
No shop class.

3531
02:04:39,980 --> 02:04:42,040
That will have to be purged out of

3532
02:04:42,040 --> 02:04:43,460
the communal mind.

3533
02:04:43,600 --> 02:04:46,160
The young people that we see today lack

3534
02:04:46,160 --> 02:04:49,280
the basics of anything unless their daddy taught

3535
02:04:49,280 --> 02:04:49,600
them.

3536
02:04:50,080 --> 02:04:54,100
No shop class, no trade school, just PhDs

3537
02:04:54,100 --> 02:04:55,500
in basket weaving.

3538
02:04:56,780 --> 02:04:58,520
Media deconstruction excluded.

3539
02:04:58,800 --> 02:04:59,000
Of course.

3540
02:04:59,040 --> 02:05:00,100
Keep up the good work.

3541
02:05:00,560 --> 02:05:04,600
And to John, if you like the brawling,

3542
02:05:04,740 --> 02:05:07,860
try Borset San Marzano.

3543
02:05:08,520 --> 02:05:09,560
No tomatoes involved.

3544
02:05:09,700 --> 02:05:10,240
Thank you.

3545
02:05:10,960 --> 02:05:13,480
That's another Amaro, obviously.

3546
02:05:13,800 --> 02:05:14,540
I'll check it out.

3547
02:05:14,940 --> 02:05:16,020
Thank you, SX64.

3548
02:05:16,320 --> 02:05:19,760
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

3549
02:05:19,960 --> 02:05:21,160
Let's vote for jobs.

3550
02:05:22,160 --> 02:05:22,320
Yeah!

3551
02:05:25,500 --> 02:05:26,680
On to a new name.

3552
02:05:27,240 --> 02:05:29,960
Augusto Andreoli from Berlin, Deutschland.

3553
02:05:30,160 --> 02:05:30,840
Hello, Deutschland!

3554
02:05:31,100 --> 02:05:31,700
Here's the Hoff!

3555
02:05:32,980 --> 02:05:35,160
Brazilian-Italian living in Berlin.

3556
02:05:35,340 --> 02:05:36,780
Britalian, I just made a new name.

3557
02:05:37,280 --> 02:05:39,160
For 11 years here in Germany.

3558
02:05:39,540 --> 02:05:41,580
Hit in the mouth by SirTal from Berlin

3559
02:05:41,580 --> 02:05:43,020
in January of 2024.

3560
02:05:43,240 --> 02:05:45,560
I've replaced my Netflix subscription by a no

3561
02:05:45,560 --> 02:05:48,300
agenda sustaining donation since April of 2024.

3562
02:05:48,760 --> 02:05:50,440
Yes, thank you very much.

3563
02:05:50,900 --> 02:05:52,360
Thank you for your courage and for the

3564
02:05:52,360 --> 02:05:54,940
weekly dose of sanity check deconstruction and laughs

3565
02:05:54,940 --> 02:05:55,860
you always provide.

3566
02:05:56,180 --> 02:05:58,440
It is truly essential public service that should

3567
02:05:58,440 --> 02:05:59,380
reach more people.

3568
02:05:59,820 --> 02:06:01,860
I'd like to be called Secretary General of

3569
02:06:01,860 --> 02:06:02,480
Sao Paulo.

3570
02:06:02,940 --> 02:06:04,540
I'd like Trump's job karma.

3571
02:06:04,920 --> 02:06:06,280
I might have a chance to work for

3572
02:06:06,280 --> 02:06:07,300
a year in the USA.

3573
02:06:07,620 --> 02:06:09,140
Plus relationship karma.

3574
02:06:09,480 --> 02:06:10,880
My girlfriend and I broke up.

3575
02:06:11,300 --> 02:06:14,040
I turned 50 on August 29th, 1975.

3576
02:06:14,420 --> 02:06:14,880
Gen Xer.

3577
02:06:15,280 --> 02:06:18,880
Four more years, says Augusto Andreoli.

3578
02:06:20,000 --> 02:06:22,260
Jobs, jobs, jobs.

3579
02:06:23,480 --> 02:06:25,180
You've got karma.

3580
02:06:25,260 --> 02:06:26,580
Let me just check, make sure he's on

3581
02:06:26,580 --> 02:06:27,720
the birthday list here.

3582
02:06:28,140 --> 02:06:28,660
Augusto.

3583
02:06:28,920 --> 02:06:29,960
Is Augusto on?

3584
02:06:30,960 --> 02:06:32,660
While you're doing that, I'm going to read

3585
02:06:32,660 --> 02:06:36,880
Matthew Martel in Brumel, Pennsylvania.

3586
02:06:37,600 --> 02:06:38,940
I'm sure I'm not pronouncing that right.

3587
02:06:39,040 --> 02:06:42,820
$350.58, 333 plus fees.

3588
02:06:43,320 --> 02:06:46,140
Here's my September donation with a little extra

3589
02:06:46,140 --> 02:06:49,160
to cover Adam's part of the dinner.

3590
02:06:50,840 --> 02:06:52,560
Visit martelhardware.com.

3591
02:06:52,680 --> 02:06:56,560
Don't forget to use the coupon code BRUNETTI33

3592
02:06:56,560 --> 02:06:59,460
for an additional 10% off your order.

3593
02:07:00,760 --> 02:07:02,820
JCD Hot Pockets is requested.

3594
02:07:03,280 --> 02:07:05,780
Oh, somehow I didn't see that one.

3595
02:07:07,180 --> 02:07:08,900
JCD Hot Pockets.

3596
02:07:09,140 --> 02:07:09,900
Hold on a second.

3597
02:07:10,040 --> 02:07:11,480
Where's my Hot Pockets?

3598
02:07:12,020 --> 02:07:12,820
There we go.

3599
02:07:14,700 --> 02:07:15,820
Hot Pockets.

3600
02:07:15,960 --> 02:07:16,460
There we go.

3601
02:07:16,700 --> 02:07:17,960
I could just do that.

3602
02:07:19,060 --> 02:07:19,900
Hot Pockets.

3603
02:07:20,160 --> 02:07:20,580
Brunetti.

3604
02:07:21,160 --> 02:07:22,900
You saw the email exchange.

3605
02:07:23,800 --> 02:07:24,200
Oh, yeah.

3606
02:07:24,300 --> 02:07:26,300
You and him, you two should get a

3607
02:07:26,300 --> 02:07:26,640
room.

3608
02:07:27,420 --> 02:07:29,500
Yeah, he's mean.

3609
02:07:29,840 --> 02:07:31,180
He says horrible things.

3610
02:07:31,960 --> 02:07:32,900
He's a producer.

3611
02:07:33,120 --> 02:07:34,320
He's just a typical suit.

3612
02:07:35,120 --> 02:07:38,520
He feels no obligation to follow a convention.

3613
02:07:39,140 --> 02:07:40,380
I told him, what did I tell him?

3614
02:07:40,440 --> 02:07:41,460
I had a, I thought it was a

3615
02:07:41,460 --> 02:07:42,180
pretty good line.

3616
02:07:42,560 --> 02:07:43,320
What was it?

3617
02:07:43,460 --> 02:07:44,140
You had a good line?

3618
02:07:44,560 --> 02:07:45,400
Yeah, I think so.

3619
02:07:45,400 --> 02:07:49,800
I told him, I said, maybe you should

3620
02:07:49,800 --> 02:07:51,880
just go make another movie.

3621
02:07:52,020 --> 02:07:53,400
Fifty Shades of Yawn.

3622
02:07:53,680 --> 02:07:55,100
More beige, more beige bondage.

3623
02:07:56,220 --> 02:07:57,620
I thought that was a good line too.

3624
02:07:57,800 --> 02:07:58,080
Thank you.

3625
02:07:58,220 --> 02:07:58,660
Thank you.

3626
02:07:58,920 --> 02:07:59,620
Yeah, he did.

3627
02:08:00,100 --> 02:08:02,060
And then he had some beige comment, which

3628
02:08:02,060 --> 02:08:02,940
I didn't think it was.

3629
02:08:03,220 --> 02:08:05,740
You, I think you could have stopped.

3630
02:08:05,780 --> 02:08:06,500
I shot past.

3631
02:08:06,620 --> 02:08:07,500
Okay, I went too far.

3632
02:08:07,520 --> 02:08:09,080
You overshot the joke.

3633
02:08:09,160 --> 02:08:09,980
Overshot the joke.

3634
02:08:10,020 --> 02:08:10,840
Yeah, you gotta be careful.

3635
02:08:11,420 --> 02:08:14,820
Uh, Sir Kretchman is in Richmond, Indiana.

3636
02:08:15,220 --> 02:08:15,860
And let me see.

3637
02:08:16,040 --> 02:08:17,080
Here, let me get that one.

3638
02:08:17,200 --> 02:08:17,780
Oh, thank you.

3639
02:08:18,340 --> 02:08:20,200
And I say that because of the next

3640
02:08:20,200 --> 02:08:20,700
one.

3641
02:08:21,000 --> 02:08:23,160
Sir Kretchman's in Richmond, Indiana.

3642
02:08:23,320 --> 02:08:24,880
And he writes in, he came in with,

3643
02:08:25,060 --> 02:08:27,500
uh, oh, I got tall.

3644
02:08:27,560 --> 02:08:30,300
But he came in with a 333.33.

3645
02:08:31,960 --> 02:08:34,220
He says, in the morning, gents, I hope

3646
02:08:34,220 --> 02:08:35,380
this letter finds you well.

3647
02:08:36,420 --> 02:08:37,160
Ha ha.

3648
02:08:37,500 --> 02:08:39,040
May this donation serve as the beginning of

3649
02:08:39,040 --> 02:08:40,340
my quest to become a Baron as well

3650
02:08:40,340 --> 02:08:41,940
as the excuse to use my new night

3651
02:08:41,940 --> 02:08:43,940
ring with sealing wax.

3652
02:08:44,940 --> 02:08:46,900
I'm delighted to inform you that I finally

3653
02:08:46,900 --> 02:08:51,240
took Adam's advice and bought my first quarter

3654
02:08:51,240 --> 02:08:53,040
cow last year.

3655
02:08:53,220 --> 02:08:53,680
Very good.

3656
02:08:55,100 --> 02:08:57,400
I never knew how delicious a cut of

3657
02:08:57,400 --> 02:08:59,880
beef could taste until I had one from

3658
02:08:59,880 --> 02:09:00,680
a local farmer.

3659
02:09:00,900 --> 02:09:01,180
Hello.

3660
02:09:01,600 --> 02:09:02,400
Very good.

3661
02:09:02,520 --> 02:09:03,480
Very good.

3662
02:09:03,720 --> 02:09:04,920
Next time, get a half.

3663
02:09:06,000 --> 02:09:07,280
Well, you don't even have to do that,

3664
02:09:07,540 --> 02:09:08,240
by the way.

3665
02:09:08,240 --> 02:09:10,080
That depends on whether you want the flanks

3666
02:09:10,080 --> 02:09:10,580
or not.

3667
02:09:10,820 --> 02:09:13,780
But also just get ground beef from them.

3668
02:09:14,440 --> 02:09:17,700
I mean, ground beef is so universally usable

3669
02:09:17,700 --> 02:09:20,880
for meatballs, for burgers, for meatloaf.

3670
02:09:21,120 --> 02:09:23,100
And it's a lot cheaper than anything you

3671
02:09:23,100 --> 02:09:24,220
can buy anywhere else.

3672
02:09:24,520 --> 02:09:27,240
With all this talk about weight loss drugs,

3673
02:09:27,280 --> 02:09:28,840
he continues in the media today.

3674
02:09:28,860 --> 02:09:31,520
I was amazed to find that beef is

3675
02:09:31,520 --> 02:09:33,760
clearly the best option on the market.

3676
02:09:33,760 --> 02:09:37,960
After primarily eating beef for three months, I

3677
02:09:37,960 --> 02:09:38,500
was astonished.

3678
02:09:38,500 --> 02:09:39,560
You don't have to plow.

3679
02:09:39,680 --> 02:09:40,760
You must not have a freezer.

3680
02:09:41,360 --> 02:09:44,160
I was astonished at my weight loss and

3681
02:09:44,160 --> 02:09:45,300
feeling of fullness.

3682
02:09:45,760 --> 02:09:48,300
It was with this newfound knowledge that I

3683
02:09:48,300 --> 02:09:49,760
created Meat Jaro.

3684
02:09:52,080 --> 02:09:56,220
Instead of injecting Munjaro under your skin, how

3685
02:09:56,220 --> 02:09:59,780
about injecting Meat Jaro directly into your mouth?

3686
02:10:00,120 --> 02:10:02,320
A delicious local farm-raised cut of beef.

3687
02:10:02,320 --> 02:10:04,320
The best part is you don't need health

3688
02:10:04,320 --> 02:10:05,400
insurance to buy it in.

3689
02:10:05,500 --> 02:10:07,020
It's 100% safe and effective.

3690
02:10:08,140 --> 02:10:10,800
Meat Jaro, trademarks, common side effects.

3691
02:10:11,340 --> 02:10:14,960
Sudden death for patients with alpha-gal syndrome.

3692
02:10:15,940 --> 02:10:20,360
Extreme depression and anxiety when taken by vegans

3693
02:10:20,360 --> 02:10:23,860
or those suffering from anthropomorphism.

3694
02:10:24,300 --> 02:10:28,240
Increased masculinity, wealth and social status as a

3695
02:10:28,240 --> 02:10:28,880
side effect.

3696
02:10:30,200 --> 02:10:32,300
And taint cancer.

3697
02:10:32,320 --> 02:10:34,900
Can I please get a massive dumps?

3698
02:10:35,080 --> 02:10:37,500
Shut up, it's science and goat karma.

3699
02:10:37,660 --> 02:10:39,920
Thank you for your courage, sore crutchman of

3700
02:10:39,920 --> 02:10:41,940
the white water valley.

3701
02:10:43,060 --> 02:10:44,200
They did dumps.

3702
02:10:44,460 --> 02:10:45,700
They call them dumps.

3703
02:10:45,740 --> 02:10:47,040
Big massive dumps.

3704
02:10:47,040 --> 02:10:48,280
Shut up already.

3705
02:10:49,340 --> 02:10:49,900
Science.

3706
02:10:50,740 --> 02:10:53,560
You've got karma.

3707
02:10:54,020 --> 02:10:55,160
Thank you, you made me laugh.

3708
02:10:55,860 --> 02:10:56,720
He has a good letter.

3709
02:10:56,720 --> 02:10:58,500
He also has a very nice signature.

3710
02:10:58,500 --> 02:11:01,780
Well, unfortunately, as we say in the old

3711
02:11:01,780 --> 02:11:06,380
country, because you thought that the next one

3712
02:11:06,380 --> 02:11:08,140
would be really long, but you miss Joe

3713
02:11:08,140 --> 02:11:11,240
Spry from Savannah, Georgia, who says, no jingles,

3714
02:11:11,400 --> 02:11:12,180
no note.

3715
02:11:12,520 --> 02:11:15,040
Joe Spry in Savannah, Georgia, which leaves you

3716
02:11:15,040 --> 02:11:15,880
with the next note.

3717
02:11:16,520 --> 02:11:17,740
I can't read it because it's off the

3718
02:11:17,740 --> 02:11:18,180
spreadsheet.

3719
02:11:19,280 --> 02:11:21,240
Aaron Duvall from Walnut, Kansas.

3720
02:11:21,900 --> 02:11:23,480
Our first associate executive producer.

3721
02:11:23,560 --> 02:11:25,480
By the way, Joe was 333, thank you.

3722
02:11:26,060 --> 02:11:29,100
Uh, Aaron is 24568.

3723
02:11:29,760 --> 02:11:31,920
This is my first monetary donation, so please

3724
02:11:31,920 --> 02:11:32,400
deduce it.

3725
02:11:33,940 --> 02:11:35,660
You've been deduced.

3726
02:11:35,960 --> 02:11:38,060
I am sending this note to say just

3727
02:11:38,060 --> 02:11:39,880
how grateful my family and I are for

3728
02:11:39,880 --> 02:11:40,780
this community.

3729
02:11:41,700 --> 02:11:43,400
It is said quite often on this show

3730
02:11:43,400 --> 02:11:44,800
that connection is protection.

3731
02:11:45,020 --> 02:11:47,180
Few people understand just how true that really

3732
02:11:47,180 --> 02:11:47,540
is.

3733
02:11:47,780 --> 02:11:50,280
For those who didn't know, my family's home

3734
02:11:50,280 --> 02:11:52,620
suffered a fire in the upstairs on St.

3735
02:11:52,700 --> 02:11:53,300
Patrick's Day.

3736
02:11:53,300 --> 02:11:55,980
We got extremely lucky there was no structural

3737
02:11:55,980 --> 02:11:58,060
damage, but we did lose the upstairs to

3738
02:11:58,060 --> 02:12:00,600
smoke, the downstairs to water, and most of

3739
02:12:00,600 --> 02:12:01,560
all of our belongings.

3740
02:12:02,200 --> 02:12:04,780
To keep this note from being egregiously long,

3741
02:12:04,860 --> 02:12:06,440
because so many of you have stepped forward,

3742
02:12:06,820 --> 02:12:08,600
I will just say thank you to all

3743
02:12:08,600 --> 02:12:11,020
of you who donated or pooled donations for

3744
02:12:11,020 --> 02:12:11,560
our cause.

3745
02:12:11,640 --> 02:12:13,360
My family is forever grateful.

3746
02:12:14,060 --> 02:12:15,880
I want to personally thank you, Adam, for

3747
02:12:15,880 --> 02:12:17,680
sharing the GoFundMe link on X.

3748
02:12:17,880 --> 02:12:20,660
That share resulted in a $1,000 donation

3749
02:12:20,660 --> 02:12:22,160
that might have brought me to tears.

3750
02:12:22,620 --> 02:12:24,460
It has been a slow process, but by

3751
02:12:24,460 --> 02:12:25,860
the end of this week, we will finally

3752
02:12:25,860 --> 02:12:26,660
be back at home.

3753
02:12:26,800 --> 02:12:29,300
Again, thank you Gitmo Nation and the NA

3754
02:12:29,300 --> 02:12:32,260
adjacent communities for coming together in our time

3755
02:12:32,260 --> 02:12:32,700
of need.

3756
02:12:33,440 --> 02:12:35,280
Connection really is protection.

3757
02:12:35,820 --> 02:12:36,200
Jingles.

3758
02:12:36,560 --> 02:12:37,480
Goat karma for all.

3759
02:12:37,800 --> 02:12:39,320
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

3760
02:12:39,440 --> 02:12:39,880
Be safe.

3761
02:12:40,040 --> 02:12:42,660
Aaron Duvall, a.k.a. Weirdo.

3762
02:12:44,160 --> 02:12:46,900
You've got karma.

3763
02:12:48,520 --> 02:12:51,840
Schuyler Firestone in Liberty Hill, Texas, 226.

3764
02:12:53,580 --> 02:12:56,860
Schuyler Firestone again for Mango Plumbing.

3765
02:12:57,420 --> 02:13:00,360
Here to provide you with an excellent plumbing

3766
02:13:00,360 --> 02:13:03,980
and an affordable price and an attitude that

3767
02:13:03,980 --> 02:13:05,360
says in the morning.

3768
02:13:05,820 --> 02:13:09,120
Speaking of that beautiful phrase, if you mention

3769
02:13:09,120 --> 02:13:11,560
in the morning or shut up slave, you

3770
02:13:11,560 --> 02:13:14,800
will get at least $33 off your final

3771
02:13:14,800 --> 02:13:17,300
price because we will know you support this

3772
02:13:17,300 --> 02:13:18,800
best podcast in the universe.

3773
02:13:19,420 --> 02:13:25,280
Visit, these ads kill me, www.callmango.com.

3774
02:13:25,600 --> 02:13:26,780
That's a pretty good one.

3775
02:13:27,520 --> 02:13:29,400
RMP and he's got his number there, which

3776
02:13:29,400 --> 02:13:31,220
proves that he's got a license.

3777
02:13:32,000 --> 02:13:33,560
I'm now qualified for knighthood.

3778
02:13:33,640 --> 02:13:35,220
I would like to be known as Sir

3779
02:13:35,220 --> 02:13:38,340
Rosas.

3780
02:13:38,380 --> 02:13:38,800
I get it.

3781
02:13:38,820 --> 02:13:41,140
Sir Rosas of the Hill of Liberty.

3782
02:13:41,860 --> 02:13:47,240
The long Al Sharpton, Sigourney Weaver, Bo Jiden

3783
02:13:47,240 --> 02:13:51,040
is fine as a clip and definitely needs

3784
02:13:51,040 --> 02:13:53,240
some jobs karma, $226.

3785
02:13:53,740 --> 02:13:56,180
Yeah, well, we have so many Al Sharpton

3786
02:13:56,180 --> 02:13:56,720
long.

3787
02:13:56,720 --> 02:13:57,960
A lot of them are all long.

3788
02:13:58,140 --> 02:13:59,620
Yeah, so let me see when I, if

3789
02:13:59,620 --> 02:14:01,820
I hear it in this one, I'm stopping

3790
02:14:01,820 --> 02:14:01,960
it.

3791
02:14:02,000 --> 02:14:03,200
If I don't hear it, I'm stopping it.

3792
02:14:03,500 --> 02:14:03,980
Resist.

3793
02:14:04,280 --> 02:14:06,440
We must, we must.

3794
02:14:06,780 --> 02:14:09,800
They're all giddy about a shutdown.

3795
02:14:09,800 --> 02:14:12,060
The tortoise in the race.

3796
02:14:12,220 --> 02:14:14,580
Then co-author of Hobreece.

3797
02:14:14,660 --> 02:14:17,500
You two lead singer Bono.

3798
02:14:17,700 --> 02:14:20,380
Fran Drescher, Sigourney Weaver.

3799
02:14:26,700 --> 02:14:29,920
Bo Jiden says to wear both masks.

3800
02:14:30,340 --> 02:14:31,300
How many masks?

3801
02:14:31,660 --> 02:14:34,240
Who says that?

3802
02:14:35,220 --> 02:14:36,440
Bo Jiden.

3803
02:14:36,680 --> 02:14:37,700
I got the wrong one.

3804
02:14:37,760 --> 02:14:38,980
I'm sorry, you meant this one.

3805
02:14:43,640 --> 02:14:44,460
That's true.

3806
02:14:44,720 --> 02:14:45,120
Jobs.

3807
02:14:45,220 --> 02:14:45,640
There we go.

3808
02:14:46,020 --> 02:14:48,000
Jobs, jobs and jobs.

3809
02:14:48,160 --> 02:14:49,700
Let's vote for jobs.

3810
02:14:51,880 --> 02:14:54,140
All right, Dame Lisa is up next.

3811
02:14:54,180 --> 02:14:57,220
She's in Foxborough, Massachusetts with a row of

3812
02:14:57,220 --> 02:15:00,180
ducks, 222.22. And she says the amusement

3813
02:15:00,180 --> 02:15:02,640
and education I get from your podcast is

3814
02:15:02,640 --> 02:15:05,280
well worth the anxiety of you always threatening

3815
02:15:05,280 --> 02:15:05,820
to quit.

3816
02:15:07,960 --> 02:15:08,860
It works.

3817
02:15:09,400 --> 02:15:10,700
You have succeeded in guilty.

3818
02:15:10,700 --> 02:15:11,740
Finally, someone.

3819
02:15:11,980 --> 02:15:12,860
I mean, come on.

3820
02:15:12,860 --> 02:15:15,040
It's value for value.

3821
02:15:16,040 --> 02:15:18,060
You have succeeded in guilting me into my

3822
02:15:18,060 --> 02:15:20,080
second yearly donation of 2025.

3823
02:15:20,560 --> 02:15:21,260
Thank you very much.

3824
02:15:21,360 --> 02:15:23,140
Baby making karma for my daughter.

3825
02:15:23,320 --> 02:15:25,020
Please keep up the good works as Dame

3826
02:15:25,020 --> 02:15:26,520
Lisa of Amick Lake.

3827
02:15:27,120 --> 02:15:27,760
You got it.

3828
02:15:28,440 --> 02:15:31,220
You've got karma.

3829
02:15:36,550 --> 02:15:40,870
Sir, camera Chris in Grafton, Wisconsin, 212.13.

3830
02:15:41,580 --> 02:15:43,730
This donation 212.13 is a mix of

3831
02:15:43,730 --> 02:15:46,570
your finder's fee for a recent wedding I

3832
02:15:46,570 --> 02:15:47,870
shot video for.

3833
02:15:48,350 --> 02:15:50,970
And today, 828 happens to be my oldest

3834
02:15:50,970 --> 02:15:53,490
human resources birthday on the list.

3835
02:15:54,270 --> 02:15:55,910
The father of the bride is an amazing

3836
02:15:55,910 --> 02:15:59,030
producer with one of the most amazing families

3837
02:15:59,030 --> 02:15:59,470
around.

3838
02:15:59,870 --> 02:16:00,830
Congrats to the newlyweds.

3839
02:16:00,970 --> 02:16:03,470
The bride and groom are a beautiful couple

3840
02:16:03,470 --> 02:16:06,010
and both have their heads on straight.

3841
02:16:06,270 --> 02:16:07,450
There's hope for the future.

3842
02:16:07,450 --> 02:16:10,870
Can I get a little newlywed karma for

3843
02:16:10,870 --> 02:16:12,570
the new couple and a happy birthday to

3844
02:16:12,570 --> 02:16:13,210
Christian?

3845
02:16:13,770 --> 02:16:16,390
Also, I guess since I'm so close to

3846
02:16:16,390 --> 02:16:18,850
Linda Lou, I should plug myself.

3847
02:16:19,170 --> 02:16:22,010
If any other producers need a photographer or

3848
02:16:22,010 --> 02:16:25,070
videographer, mostly in Wisconsin, check out.

3849
02:16:26,590 --> 02:16:28,950
Baylor media, B-A-Y-L-O-R

3851
02:16:30,030 --> 02:16:31,610
That's Baylor media.com.

3852
02:16:31,650 --> 02:16:34,629
Thanks, Baronet Baylor, a.k.a. Sir Camera

3853
02:16:34,629 --> 02:16:35,129
Chris.

3854
02:16:36,670 --> 02:16:38,450
You've got karma.

3855
02:16:39,790 --> 02:16:44,610
And there's Jared Bane from Lakewood, Ohio, 21060.

3856
02:16:44,809 --> 02:16:46,230
Birthday donation from myself.

3857
02:16:46,430 --> 02:16:48,629
Adam's comment about the multiple trumps on the

3858
02:16:48,629 --> 02:16:50,610
last episode had me wondering if all the

3859
02:16:50,610 --> 02:16:52,389
body doubles meet every once in a while

3860
02:16:52,389 --> 02:16:53,350
in the cabinet room.

3861
02:16:55,990 --> 02:16:57,190
That's a good question.

3862
02:16:57,469 --> 02:16:57,629
I wonder.

3863
02:16:57,629 --> 02:16:58,430
That's a good idea.

3864
02:16:58,730 --> 02:16:58,990
Yeah.

3865
02:16:59,469 --> 02:17:00,809
Body doubles only today.

3866
02:17:00,950 --> 02:17:01,730
Body doubles only.

3867
02:17:02,129 --> 02:17:03,370
They just might.

3868
02:17:03,370 --> 02:17:05,070
Body doubles only today.

3869
02:17:05,150 --> 02:17:05,870
Thanks for all you do.

3870
02:17:06,170 --> 02:17:07,049
Scott Sarkitash.

3871
02:17:07,110 --> 02:17:07,950
Karma, please.

3872
02:17:08,030 --> 02:17:09,370
Suffering Sarkitash.

3873
02:17:09,490 --> 02:17:11,549
I'm Scott Simon.

3874
02:17:15,660 --> 02:17:17,480
You've got karma.

3875
02:17:19,280 --> 02:17:19,920
Gabriel.

3876
02:17:20,680 --> 02:17:21,320
Gabriel.

3877
02:17:21,620 --> 02:17:22,120
Gabriel.

3878
02:17:23,639 --> 02:17:27,040
Do the bear, I think, in Gatineau, Quebec,

3879
02:17:27,600 --> 02:17:28,500
21060.

3880
02:17:28,780 --> 02:17:29,559
Ah, Quebecer.

3881
02:17:30,440 --> 02:17:32,420
Gentlemen, I am aggrieved.

3882
02:17:32,420 --> 02:17:36,580
Having donated the show 1681, I had meekly

3883
02:17:36,580 --> 02:17:40,860
requested divorce karma, which was ruthlessly suppressed.

3884
02:17:42,139 --> 02:17:46,120
Imagine my shock and abject horror upon hearing

3885
02:17:46,120 --> 02:17:51,180
such karma lackadaisically awarded then in show 1793.

3886
02:17:52,379 --> 02:17:56,059
The show aptly named Retribution, for that is

3887
02:17:56,059 --> 02:17:57,219
what I now seek.

3888
02:17:57,559 --> 02:18:00,700
Well, I don't remember doing that.

3889
02:18:00,760 --> 02:18:01,360
Well, I apologize.

3890
02:18:01,360 --> 02:18:03,940
I do remember rejecting the divorce karma, but

3891
02:18:03,940 --> 02:18:05,680
I don't remember giving divorce karma in the

3892
02:18:05,680 --> 02:18:06,600
last show.

3893
02:18:08,600 --> 02:18:09,080
Really?

3894
02:18:09,299 --> 02:18:10,959
Hoping this news finds you well, Gabriel.

3895
02:18:11,059 --> 02:18:11,600
We did that.

3896
02:18:11,700 --> 02:18:12,360
You don't remember?

3897
02:18:12,600 --> 02:18:14,980
Go look on Bingit.io. Don't you remember

3898
02:18:14,980 --> 02:18:15,219
that?

3899
02:18:15,260 --> 02:18:15,719
You're wrong.

3900
02:18:17,500 --> 02:18:19,900
Adam can pronounce it better in French.

3901
02:18:20,480 --> 02:18:20,959
Dubar.

3902
02:18:21,660 --> 02:18:22,139
Dubar.

3903
02:18:22,440 --> 02:18:22,920
Dubar.

3904
02:18:23,040 --> 02:18:24,299
Well, here's your divorce karma.

3905
02:18:24,440 --> 02:18:25,520
I hope it all goes well.

3906
02:18:25,600 --> 02:18:26,940
You've got karma.

3907
02:18:28,760 --> 02:18:30,480
And there's Eli the Coffee Guy.

3908
02:18:31,459 --> 02:18:31,900
20828.

3909
02:18:32,200 --> 02:18:32,559
There it is.

3910
02:18:32,660 --> 02:18:33,680
828 for the date.

3911
02:18:34,799 --> 02:18:36,200
Then he says, after seeing the picture of

3912
02:18:36,200 --> 02:18:38,920
Governor Pritzker as Fred Flintstone in the newsletter,

3913
02:18:39,420 --> 02:18:40,820
it's a newsletter donation.

3914
02:18:41,299 --> 02:18:42,780
It is something I'll never be able to

3915
02:18:42,780 --> 02:18:43,260
unsee.

3916
02:18:43,459 --> 02:18:44,040
Thanks, John.

3917
02:18:44,160 --> 02:18:46,520
You ruined one of my favorite childhood cartoons

3918
02:18:46,520 --> 02:18:47,160
for me.

3919
02:18:47,959 --> 02:18:49,299
I thought I'd never say it, but I

3920
02:18:49,299 --> 02:18:52,620
longed for the days Rod Blago Blagojevich was

3921
02:18:52,620 --> 02:18:53,420
running the state.

3922
02:18:53,820 --> 02:18:55,900
Taxes and crime were out of control, and

3923
02:18:55,900 --> 02:18:57,900
they just raised our electric bills by over

3924
02:18:57,900 --> 02:19:03,040
20%, as because of that new quantum computing

3925
02:19:03,040 --> 02:19:05,360
center, brother, that they got there.

3926
02:19:05,840 --> 02:19:07,660
Whether you're in the land of Lincoln or

3927
02:19:07,660 --> 02:19:10,139
someplace else getting nickel and dime by a

3928
02:19:10,139 --> 02:19:13,379
corrupt government and inflation, you can still drink

3929
02:19:13,379 --> 02:19:15,420
high-quality coffee at an affordable price.

3930
02:19:15,780 --> 02:19:17,920
Just visit gigawattcoffeeroasters.com.

3931
02:19:17,980 --> 02:19:20,320
Use code ITM20 for 20% off your

3932
02:19:20,320 --> 02:19:20,559
order.

3933
02:19:20,680 --> 02:19:22,959
Thank you for your courage, and stay caffeinated,

3934
02:19:23,100 --> 02:19:24,620
says Eli the Coffee Guy.

3935
02:19:25,820 --> 02:19:28,520
Which brings us to Linda Lou Patkin, mentioned

3936
02:19:28,520 --> 02:19:33,639
earlier in Lakewood, Colorado, $200, jobs karma, worried

3937
02:19:33,639 --> 02:19:35,959
about AI for a resume that gets results

3938
02:19:35,959 --> 02:19:38,600
and tells your unique story and highlights your

3939
02:19:38,600 --> 02:19:40,379
value or the value you bring.

3940
02:19:40,480 --> 02:19:43,299
Go to imagemakersinc.com, that's imagemakersinc with a

3941
02:19:43,299 --> 02:19:46,420
K, and work with Linda Lou, Duchess of

3942
02:19:46,420 --> 02:19:48,720
Jobs and writer of winning resumes.

3943
02:19:49,020 --> 02:19:52,460
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

3944
02:19:52,620 --> 02:19:54,120
Let's vote for jobs.

3945
02:19:56,280 --> 02:19:57,900
Yeah, there you go.

3946
02:19:58,780 --> 02:20:00,420
Why am I modulating?

3947
02:20:01,220 --> 02:20:03,440
Well, you kind of blew it, honestly.

3948
02:20:03,580 --> 02:20:04,380
That was a bad read.

3949
02:20:04,420 --> 02:20:06,780
I made one little, no, I saved it.

3950
02:20:06,780 --> 02:20:07,560
It was a save.

3951
02:20:08,720 --> 02:20:10,000
Save, but there's no save.

3952
02:20:10,000 --> 02:20:11,620
It was a great save, dude, to be

3953
02:20:11,620 --> 02:20:12,300
honest about it.

3954
02:20:12,360 --> 02:20:12,800
It was terrific.

3955
02:20:12,880 --> 02:20:16,120
There's no saving on ad reads.

3956
02:20:16,180 --> 02:20:17,140
You've got to do it right.

3957
02:20:17,240 --> 02:20:18,840
You've got to nail it the first time.

3958
02:20:20,900 --> 02:20:22,060
Otherwise, you know, we have to have a

3959
02:20:22,060 --> 02:20:22,440
meeting.

3960
02:20:24,580 --> 02:20:27,240
Linda Lou, thank you to these executive and

3961
02:20:27,240 --> 02:20:28,360
associate executive producers.

3962
02:20:28,560 --> 02:20:30,760
Once again, these are official and very real

3963
02:20:30,760 --> 02:20:31,140
credits.

3964
02:20:31,240 --> 02:20:33,000
If anyone questioned you on them as you

3965
02:20:33,000 --> 02:20:35,020
put them on your resume, I wonder if

3966
02:20:35,020 --> 02:20:37,360
Linda Lou puts it on her resume or

3967
02:20:37,360 --> 02:20:38,400
puts it on any resume.

3968
02:20:38,520 --> 02:20:40,320
So she said, hey, got a great idea.

3969
02:20:40,380 --> 02:20:42,460
Let's put your no agenda producership on your

3970
02:20:42,460 --> 02:20:42,800
resume.

3971
02:20:43,120 --> 02:20:44,400
Linda Lou, we'd like to know.

3972
02:20:45,480 --> 02:20:46,760
We'd like to know if that helps people

3973
02:20:46,760 --> 02:20:47,320
get jobs.

3974
02:20:47,440 --> 02:20:51,820
You are the expert, as someone recently said

3975
02:20:51,820 --> 02:20:52,960
to me, the SME.

3976
02:20:54,120 --> 02:20:55,300
Someone that texted me.

3977
02:20:55,720 --> 02:20:58,540
We don't have an SME in video.

3978
02:20:58,800 --> 02:21:00,360
Like SME in video.

3979
02:21:00,640 --> 02:21:01,140
What is that?

3980
02:21:01,420 --> 02:21:02,480
Small, medium, SME.

3981
02:21:03,180 --> 02:21:04,700
Subject matter expert.

3982
02:21:06,320 --> 02:21:07,960
Oh, I didn't know this.

3983
02:21:08,120 --> 02:21:08,960
I did not know.

3984
02:21:09,120 --> 02:21:11,220
I was surprised that I had never heard

3985
02:21:11,220 --> 02:21:11,740
this used.

3986
02:21:12,660 --> 02:21:14,820
So Linda Lou, you are the SME of

3987
02:21:14,820 --> 02:21:15,480
the resumes.

3988
02:21:15,680 --> 02:21:18,400
And of course, these credits are good for

3989
02:21:18,400 --> 02:21:18,960
your lifetime.

3990
02:21:19,180 --> 02:21:21,340
And we appreciate you very much.

3991
02:21:21,340 --> 02:21:23,220
We'll be thanking the rest of our supporters,

3992
02:21:23,400 --> 02:21:25,280
Value for Value, $50 and above in our

3993
02:21:25,280 --> 02:21:25,900
second segment.

3994
02:21:26,000 --> 02:21:27,620
You can help the show and you should.

3995
02:21:28,060 --> 02:21:29,960
Whatever you got out of this, whatever value

3996
02:21:29,960 --> 02:21:32,240
you're getting, a laugh, something you learned, something

3997
02:21:32,240 --> 02:21:34,780
new, a way to surprise your co-workers

3998
02:21:34,780 --> 02:21:35,580
at the water cooler.

3999
02:21:35,700 --> 02:21:37,400
Go to noagendadonations.com.

4000
02:21:37,480 --> 02:21:38,500
Any amount is welcome.

4001
02:21:38,880 --> 02:21:40,120
And if you want to, you can always

4002
02:21:40,120 --> 02:21:41,200
become a sustaining donor.

4003
02:21:41,380 --> 02:21:45,020
Any amount, any frequency, noagendadonations.com.

4004
02:21:45,100 --> 02:21:47,300
Congratulations to these multiple producers.

4005
02:21:47,820 --> 02:21:49,180
Our formula is this.

4006
02:21:49,900 --> 02:21:52,280
We go out, we hit people in the

4007
02:21:52,280 --> 02:21:52,520
mouth.

4008
02:22:00,900 --> 02:22:08,060
Man, we've talked about a lot of stuff,

4009
02:22:08,160 --> 02:22:10,040
but we haven't talked about important stuff.

4010
02:22:10,480 --> 02:22:11,880
Then I did want to talk about some.

4011
02:22:13,480 --> 02:22:16,480
In particular, what's going on over in the

4012
02:22:16,480 --> 02:22:17,180
EU's.

4013
02:22:17,790 --> 02:22:20,980
The first thing, as expected, and yes, some

4014
02:22:20,980 --> 02:22:25,040
would say predicted, the military, I'm sorry, the

4015
02:22:25,040 --> 02:22:28,200
war economy of the EU is cranking up.

4016
02:22:28,580 --> 02:22:30,780
And now that Germany has no other economy,

4017
02:22:31,180 --> 02:22:32,620
we're going to have to make the young

4018
02:22:32,620 --> 02:22:36,600
people serve in the army, in this Bundeswehr.

4019
02:22:36,940 --> 02:22:38,920
And of course, it's all going to be

4020
02:22:38,920 --> 02:22:39,580
voluntary.

4021
02:22:40,100 --> 02:22:40,800
Don't worry.

4022
02:22:40,800 --> 02:22:44,260
The bill aims to boost German firepower with

4023
02:22:44,260 --> 02:22:47,560
80,000 new soldiers and 150,000 new

4024
02:22:47,560 --> 02:22:51,420
reservists through a new voluntary military service scheme.

4025
02:22:51,940 --> 02:22:54,100
We're now really approaching this task with the

4026
02:22:54,100 --> 02:22:57,140
declared target of having 260,000 soldiers in

4027
02:22:57,140 --> 02:22:57,460
Germany.

4028
02:22:57,900 --> 02:22:59,640
And we want to achieve this target.

4029
02:23:00,280 --> 02:23:02,860
My goal is that Germany, due to its

4030
02:23:02,860 --> 02:23:06,440
size and economic strength, is the country that

4031
02:23:06,440 --> 02:23:09,220
must have the strongest conventional army in NATO

4032
02:23:09,220 --> 02:23:10,920
on the European side.

4033
02:23:11,340 --> 02:23:13,800
The bill would introduce opt-in military service

4034
02:23:13,800 --> 02:23:16,740
for young Germans, with improved pay and conditions

4035
02:23:16,740 --> 02:23:18,420
to entice new recruits.

4036
02:23:19,100 --> 02:23:21,180
And to prepare for war and the automatic

4037
02:23:21,180 --> 02:23:24,860
reimplementation of conscription, the bill includes a national

4038
02:23:24,860 --> 02:23:27,260
census of young people's readiness to serve.

4039
02:23:27,440 --> 02:23:30,260
All young Germans would receive a questionnaire as

4040
02:23:30,260 --> 02:23:32,980
of next January to assess their fitness, skills

4041
02:23:32,980 --> 02:23:33,800
and willingness.

4042
02:23:34,260 --> 02:23:36,440
Compulsory for men, but voluntary for women.

4043
02:23:37,140 --> 02:23:40,440
And as of July 2027, 18-year-old

4044
02:23:40,440 --> 02:23:43,400
men would undergo a mandatory physical exam, whether

4045
02:23:43,400 --> 02:23:45,420
they opt for military service or not.

4046
02:23:46,040 --> 02:23:47,620
The bill still needs to be voted in

4047
02:23:47,620 --> 02:23:50,340
parliament, but its announcement comes just months after

4048
02:23:50,340 --> 02:23:53,280
Germany passed a whopping 500 billion euro spending

4049
02:23:53,280 --> 02:23:56,880
bill to fund infrastructure and defence industry investments.

4050
02:23:58,160 --> 02:24:00,540
We not only need a well-equipped force,

4051
02:24:01,260 --> 02:24:03,480
which we are working hard to achieve and

4052
02:24:03,480 --> 02:24:05,260
have been doing so for two and a

4053
02:24:05,260 --> 02:24:06,560
half years without stopping.

4054
02:24:06,800 --> 02:24:09,240
We also need a Bundeswehr with sufficient personnel.

4055
02:24:09,640 --> 02:24:11,580
Only then will the terrorists as a whole

4056
02:24:11,580 --> 02:24:13,420
be truly credible vis-à-vis Russia.

4057
02:24:14,000 --> 02:24:14,860
There it is.

4058
02:24:14,900 --> 02:24:16,400
Because you got to be afraid of Russia

4059
02:24:16,400 --> 02:24:18,720
for the rest of your lives, young people.

4060
02:24:19,360 --> 02:24:22,100
Yes, conscription can be possible in this bill.

4061
02:24:22,200 --> 02:24:23,120
We'll see if it passes.

4062
02:24:23,800 --> 02:24:25,480
And this is all part of who is

4063
02:24:25,480 --> 02:24:27,080
going to have boots on the ground in

4064
02:24:27,080 --> 02:24:27,380
Ukraine.

4065
02:24:27,560 --> 02:24:28,860
Will there be boots on the ground?

4066
02:24:29,240 --> 02:24:31,760
What will the Article 5-like provisions be?

4067
02:24:31,760 --> 02:24:34,300
Well, for that answer, we go to our

4068
02:24:34,300 --> 02:24:39,040
Canadian SME, subject matter expert, Andrew Risoulis.

4069
02:24:39,260 --> 02:24:39,680
My guy.

4070
02:24:40,260 --> 02:24:42,380
Let me just go first to the boots

4071
02:24:42,380 --> 02:24:43,320
on the ground option.

4072
02:24:43,340 --> 02:24:46,100
It guarantees the most important thing.

4073
02:24:46,540 --> 02:24:48,800
And there's a lot of circular discussion going

4074
02:24:48,800 --> 02:24:49,380
on here.

4075
02:24:50,040 --> 02:24:53,320
People saying the Russians have no say on

4076
02:24:53,320 --> 02:24:55,560
what NATO does or Western powers do.

4077
02:24:56,000 --> 02:24:58,680
The point is they do because they have

4078
02:24:58,680 --> 02:25:00,680
to agree to a ceasefire or a peace

4079
02:25:00,680 --> 02:25:03,540
in which case those forces could, in theory,

4080
02:25:03,580 --> 02:25:04,380
come into play.

4081
02:25:04,920 --> 02:25:07,860
So the Russians have repeatedly said that's not

4082
02:25:07,860 --> 02:25:08,500
going to happen.

4083
02:25:08,980 --> 02:25:11,040
And unless they change their minds, it's not

4084
02:25:11,040 --> 02:25:11,720
going to happen.

4085
02:25:12,240 --> 02:25:13,880
So now let's go on with that one

4086
02:25:13,880 --> 02:25:14,180
a bit.

4087
02:25:14,740 --> 02:25:15,660
So it's circular.

4088
02:25:16,100 --> 02:25:18,240
The Russians want like a UN Security Council

4089
02:25:18,240 --> 02:25:18,620
thing.

4090
02:25:18,920 --> 02:25:22,060
And Ukraine wants boots on the ground, some

4091
02:25:22,060 --> 02:25:23,020
kind of a guarantee.

4092
02:25:23,380 --> 02:25:25,140
The prime minister, of course, saying that's a

4093
02:25:25,140 --> 02:25:25,600
possibility.

4094
02:25:26,210 --> 02:25:29,460
Now, the Italians have floated an interesting idea,

4095
02:25:29,640 --> 02:25:31,560
which has not got much press, but Maloney

4096
02:25:31,560 --> 02:25:34,120
at the White House on Monday brought it

4097
02:25:34,120 --> 02:25:34,880
up on the table.

4098
02:25:35,420 --> 02:25:39,140
And that's essentially an idea that Ukraine might

4099
02:25:39,140 --> 02:25:43,280
get Article 5 type by certain countries of

4100
02:25:43,280 --> 02:25:45,800
the Western alliance, not part of NATO, but

4101
02:25:45,800 --> 02:25:47,260
independently, bilaterally.

4102
02:25:47,640 --> 02:25:49,540
But the key thing is no boots on

4103
02:25:49,540 --> 02:25:49,920
the ground.

4104
02:25:50,340 --> 02:25:52,780
So the Italians are saying, put in the

4105
02:25:52,780 --> 02:25:53,300
guarantees.

4106
02:25:53,300 --> 02:25:56,240
You can have forces not in Ukraine that

4107
02:25:56,240 --> 02:25:58,040
are positioned to go in in case there's

4108
02:25:58,040 --> 02:26:00,500
a breakdown in the ceasefire or the settlement.

4109
02:26:00,940 --> 02:26:03,680
But you actually use a Norway option.

4110
02:26:03,900 --> 02:26:05,580
Norway is a member of NATO, but has

4111
02:26:05,580 --> 02:26:08,120
no NATO troops on the ground, never has.

4112
02:26:08,340 --> 02:26:10,280
It's part of Norway's law.

4113
02:26:10,640 --> 02:26:11,680
They allow for training.

4114
02:26:12,040 --> 02:26:13,300
They allow for prepositioning.

4115
02:26:13,440 --> 02:26:15,800
It's a way of not antagonizing the Russians

4116
02:26:15,800 --> 02:26:17,440
and the Soviets back in the Cold War

4117
02:26:17,440 --> 02:26:17,760
days.

4118
02:26:18,120 --> 02:26:19,180
And there you go.

4119
02:26:19,320 --> 02:26:21,240
So we may just have boots in every

4120
02:26:21,240 --> 02:26:22,560
individual country.

4121
02:26:22,560 --> 02:26:24,260
Just waiting to hang around.

4122
02:26:25,560 --> 02:26:30,760
And on this, particularly these Scandinavian NATO countries,

4123
02:26:31,220 --> 02:26:35,160
I caught a YouTube of a guy named

4124
02:26:35,160 --> 02:26:38,920
Stanislav Kapivnik.

4125
02:26:39,600 --> 02:26:40,980
Stanislav Kapivnik.

4126
02:26:41,480 --> 02:26:44,020
Think he's Russian, was Russian, is Russian.

4127
02:26:44,160 --> 02:26:44,540
I don't know.

4128
02:26:45,000 --> 02:26:46,760
But he had Colonel Wilkerson on.

4129
02:26:47,700 --> 02:26:49,960
Have you seen the Colonel Wilkerson?

4130
02:26:50,510 --> 02:26:53,060
Yeah, he's been, we've clipped him before.

4131
02:26:53,660 --> 02:26:57,520
So he had, I just have two relatively

4132
02:26:57,520 --> 02:26:58,200
short clips.

4133
02:27:00,440 --> 02:27:02,960
Because we're always talking about, you know, the

4134
02:27:02,960 --> 02:27:04,900
elites and how we're doing this and the

4135
02:27:04,900 --> 02:27:07,760
CIA, and they're the ones that go in

4136
02:27:07,760 --> 02:27:09,080
and the economic hitmen.

4137
02:27:09,820 --> 02:27:14,620
And he was apparently part of the real

4138
02:27:14,620 --> 02:27:18,420
danger, which we were warned of by General

4139
02:27:18,420 --> 02:27:23,320
Eisenhower, President Eisenhower, the military industrial complex.

4140
02:27:24,240 --> 02:27:27,160
And in this, what are you listening to?

4141
02:27:27,240 --> 02:27:28,500
Are you doing a different podcast?

4142
02:27:28,780 --> 02:27:30,800
Are you on with the, with the Chanel?

4143
02:27:31,700 --> 02:27:33,360
Are you doing a hit?

4144
02:27:33,700 --> 02:27:34,380
Are you doing a hit?

4145
02:27:34,460 --> 02:27:34,820
What are you doing?

4146
02:27:34,860 --> 02:27:37,080
Are you literally just browsing around while I'm

4147
02:27:37,080 --> 02:27:37,500
talking?

4148
02:27:38,200 --> 02:27:38,560
No.

4149
02:27:38,920 --> 02:27:39,780
Well, what was that?

4150
02:27:40,480 --> 02:27:41,740
Something auto started.

4151
02:27:42,020 --> 02:27:43,520
Because you're browsing around.

4152
02:27:43,580 --> 02:27:45,220
You're just browsing around during the show.

4153
02:27:45,220 --> 02:27:45,920
No, I am not.

4154
02:27:46,040 --> 02:27:47,340
I'm listening because I want to hear about

4155
02:27:47,340 --> 02:27:48,080
Wilkerson.

4156
02:27:49,080 --> 02:27:53,420
Turns out the military industrial complex is responsible

4157
02:27:53,420 --> 02:27:54,740
for a lot.

4158
02:27:55,040 --> 02:27:57,360
It seems, you know, the Europeans are ever

4159
02:27:57,360 --> 02:28:02,040
more hell bent on unwinding this, making it

4160
02:28:02,040 --> 02:28:03,000
as wide as possible.

4161
02:28:03,720 --> 02:28:04,320
It does.

4162
02:28:04,620 --> 02:28:07,700
I think merits and Macron and Starmer in

4163
02:28:07,700 --> 02:28:11,200
particular, but other leaders too, following in their

4164
02:28:11,200 --> 02:28:12,760
wake, so to speak.

4165
02:28:13,320 --> 02:28:15,720
I think they're all going to be gone

4166
02:28:15,720 --> 02:28:16,600
very shortly.

4167
02:28:16,980 --> 02:28:18,620
I don't think any of them are long

4168
02:28:18,620 --> 02:28:21,040
live because I think their people are going

4169
02:28:21,040 --> 02:28:23,220
to understand eventually what's going on.

4170
02:28:23,640 --> 02:28:26,020
You know, I know people don't believe me,

4171
02:28:26,140 --> 02:28:28,700
but in 2002, I was there when we

4172
02:28:28,700 --> 02:28:30,920
started buying governments.

4173
02:28:31,140 --> 02:28:32,780
We bought newspapers.

4174
02:28:33,220 --> 02:28:34,440
We bought editors.

4175
02:28:34,700 --> 02:28:35,760
We bought reporters.

4176
02:28:36,020 --> 02:28:37,240
We bought politicians.

4177
02:28:37,240 --> 02:28:40,520
We bought people who would be Jen Stoltenberg's.

4178
02:28:41,300 --> 02:28:44,940
We bought people to change, and we didn't

4179
02:28:44,940 --> 02:28:46,380
do it the way the CIA did it

4180
02:28:46,380 --> 02:28:48,900
in Chile, for example, in 68, 69 and

4181
02:28:48,900 --> 02:28:52,320
70 and turn them all against Allende.

4182
02:28:52,620 --> 02:28:54,780
We didn't do it for that reason because

4183
02:28:54,780 --> 02:28:56,220
we disguised it.

4184
02:28:56,260 --> 02:29:00,880
We disguised it by weaponizing liberal democracy, and

4185
02:29:00,880 --> 02:29:03,700
we sent in non-governmental organizations.

4186
02:29:03,700 --> 02:29:05,380
We sent in U.S. aid.

4187
02:29:05,580 --> 02:29:06,760
We sent other people in.

4188
02:29:06,760 --> 02:29:09,340
We call them Quayogs, some of them, Quasar

4189
02:29:09,340 --> 02:29:10,240
government operations.

4190
02:29:10,700 --> 02:29:12,920
We sent them in, and they had a

4191
02:29:12,920 --> 02:29:15,280
mission, and they didn't even know why they

4192
02:29:15,280 --> 02:29:16,420
were carrying out their mission.

4193
02:29:16,540 --> 02:29:19,860
In many events, their mission was to democratize

4194
02:29:19,860 --> 02:29:22,400
these people and to democratize them in a

4195
02:29:22,400 --> 02:29:24,620
way that would make them want to be

4196
02:29:24,620 --> 02:29:25,560
members of NATO.

4197
02:29:27,180 --> 02:29:28,300
Yes, Quayogs.

4198
02:29:28,340 --> 02:29:31,620
Of course, the DIA is much more sneaky

4199
02:29:31,620 --> 02:29:35,020
than the CIA, and they also did Ukraine.

4200
02:29:35,020 --> 02:29:36,100
We reaped this.

4201
02:29:36,540 --> 02:29:39,020
People ask me, why would a country that

4202
02:29:39,020 --> 02:29:43,360
had a years and years long history of

4203
02:29:43,360 --> 02:29:47,540
neutrality, think the Scandinavian countries, for example, even

4204
02:29:47,540 --> 02:29:48,100
Norway?

4205
02:29:48,360 --> 02:29:50,600
Yeah, okay, and Tromso, we had some Marine

4206
02:29:50,600 --> 02:29:52,900
Pompkos and things like that, but not a

4207
02:29:52,900 --> 02:29:54,480
member of NATO, not officially a member of

4208
02:29:54,480 --> 02:29:54,620
NATO.

4209
02:29:54,980 --> 02:29:56,500
Why would these countries come in?

4210
02:29:56,900 --> 02:29:57,840
We bought them.

4211
02:29:58,260 --> 02:30:00,000
We got them in, and then we put

4212
02:30:00,000 --> 02:30:01,600
the fine cap on it.

4213
02:30:02,120 --> 02:30:05,660
We created Ukraine to make them grow increasingly

4214
02:30:05,660 --> 02:30:08,300
fearful of Russia, because we knew when we

4215
02:30:08,300 --> 02:30:12,060
created Ukraine in our image, that Russia would

4216
02:30:12,060 --> 02:30:15,760
find that unacceptable and eventually would attack, and

4217
02:30:15,760 --> 02:30:16,240
they did.

4218
02:30:16,700 --> 02:30:19,740
Then we said, Joe Biden got this one,

4219
02:30:20,440 --> 02:30:24,280
he'll take Lithuania next and Estonia and Latvia,

4220
02:30:24,460 --> 02:30:25,200
and then Poland.

4221
02:30:26,400 --> 02:30:27,660
We did this.

4222
02:30:27,940 --> 02:30:28,680
We did this.

4223
02:30:28,680 --> 02:30:31,200
History books will show that we did this

4224
02:30:31,200 --> 02:30:32,680
20, 30 years from now.

4225
02:30:32,940 --> 02:30:34,160
I believe him.

4226
02:30:34,520 --> 02:30:36,760
But we said this already on the show.

4227
02:30:36,960 --> 02:30:39,080
Well, not- That we're talking about Brennan

4228
02:30:39,080 --> 02:30:40,080
being in the Maidan.

4229
02:30:40,080 --> 02:30:45,740
But he's Defense Intelligence Agency, not Central Intelligence

4230
02:30:45,740 --> 02:30:46,440
Agency.

4231
02:30:46,960 --> 02:30:50,040
Well, that makes you wonder exactly why Brennan

4232
02:30:50,040 --> 02:30:51,460
was in Maidan.

4233
02:30:51,760 --> 02:30:52,500
He's CIA.

4234
02:30:52,960 --> 02:30:53,380
For the party.

4235
02:30:55,000 --> 02:30:56,860
He was there for the chicks, for the

4236
02:30:56,860 --> 02:30:57,520
party, for the champagne.

4237
02:30:57,520 --> 02:30:58,600
The dead guy.

4238
02:30:59,960 --> 02:31:01,940
I completely believe- He does not look

4239
02:31:01,940 --> 02:31:03,560
like a party animal to me.

4240
02:31:03,680 --> 02:31:06,060
The DIA, they are the ones.

4241
02:31:06,340 --> 02:31:08,300
And they're the ones on social media.

4242
02:31:08,580 --> 02:31:09,900
They have a whole unit.

4243
02:31:10,520 --> 02:31:13,660
Their whole nudge unit, that's all defense.

4244
02:31:13,980 --> 02:31:15,640
And that's what we were warned of, of

4245
02:31:15,640 --> 02:31:17,480
the military industrial complex.

4246
02:31:17,940 --> 02:31:19,440
That's why I play these clips.

4247
02:31:19,620 --> 02:31:20,560
I believe that.

4248
02:31:20,700 --> 02:31:23,200
I believe it was Defense Intelligence Agency.

4249
02:31:24,140 --> 02:31:25,840
That's what Laura Logan's husband did.

4250
02:31:25,840 --> 02:31:28,060
Now, he says, I can talk about it

4251
02:31:28,060 --> 02:31:30,040
now because it's past whatever time.

4252
02:31:30,400 --> 02:31:31,680
I was PSYOPs, man.

4253
02:31:31,760 --> 02:31:32,700
I was PSYOPs.

4254
02:31:32,860 --> 02:31:34,040
DIA PSYOPs.

4255
02:31:34,100 --> 02:31:34,900
I believe it.

4256
02:31:35,360 --> 02:31:37,960
I think that you're starting to act like

4257
02:31:37,960 --> 02:31:38,900
a Fredericksburger.

4258
02:31:40,920 --> 02:31:44,080
I am not convinced that the DIA is

4259
02:31:44,080 --> 02:31:50,600
as omnipotent as he says, or anybody does.

4260
02:31:50,640 --> 02:31:52,400
Because I think they're the boneheads of the

4261
02:31:52,400 --> 02:31:52,740
group.

4262
02:31:54,320 --> 02:31:55,380
I don't know.

4263
02:31:55,380 --> 02:31:58,020
They probably maybe got it started, but they

4264
02:31:58,020 --> 02:31:59,720
had to have Brennan and the boys go

4265
02:31:59,720 --> 02:32:01,200
in there to really take care of it.

4266
02:32:01,500 --> 02:32:04,180
You don't think that Victoria Nuland's got anything

4267
02:32:04,180 --> 02:32:05,320
to do with the DIA.

4268
02:32:05,580 --> 02:32:06,660
I really doubt it.

4269
02:32:07,240 --> 02:32:08,120
State Department?

4270
02:32:08,340 --> 02:32:08,860
I don't know.

4271
02:32:09,440 --> 02:32:10,560
The State Department's different.

4272
02:32:10,700 --> 02:32:12,520
That's another group of spooks.

4273
02:32:12,580 --> 02:32:14,640
So it's a whole bunch of spooks.

4274
02:32:14,840 --> 02:32:15,720
But I'm...

4275
02:32:15,720 --> 02:32:17,360
Well, they're all trying to take credit for

4276
02:32:17,360 --> 02:32:18,560
each other's work.

4277
02:32:18,860 --> 02:32:19,960
Well, there's that.

4278
02:32:20,240 --> 02:32:21,680
For sure, there's that.

4279
02:32:23,160 --> 02:32:24,480
No, but there it is.

4280
02:32:24,480 --> 02:32:25,760
We bought off editors.

4281
02:32:26,120 --> 02:32:27,200
We bought off newspapers.

4282
02:32:27,700 --> 02:32:29,060
Again, the CIA process.

4283
02:32:29,400 --> 02:32:31,640
Now, he demeans what they did, what the

4284
02:32:31,640 --> 02:32:34,260
CIA did in Chile, as if it was

4285
02:32:34,260 --> 02:32:35,060
like a one-off.

4286
02:32:35,160 --> 02:32:35,960
Well, look what they did.

4287
02:32:36,000 --> 02:32:36,600
It sucks.

4288
02:32:37,160 --> 02:32:39,060
And we do a better job because we

4289
02:32:39,060 --> 02:32:39,740
bought all these guys.

4290
02:32:39,880 --> 02:32:40,980
I think this is nonsense.

4291
02:32:41,400 --> 02:32:43,500
All I know is the CIA was recruiting

4292
02:32:43,500 --> 02:32:45,140
woke children.

4293
02:32:48,470 --> 02:32:51,330
So I don't think that the new CIA

4294
02:32:51,330 --> 02:32:52,370
is all that impressive.

4295
02:32:57,940 --> 02:32:59,340
I'm withholding judgment.

4296
02:32:59,340 --> 02:33:00,520
I'm not...

4297
02:33:00,520 --> 02:33:02,640
I don't think the DIA is that impressive,

4298
02:33:02,740 --> 02:33:04,560
if you're going to think that way.

4299
02:33:04,960 --> 02:33:06,220
I think they're full of shit.

4300
02:33:06,360 --> 02:33:07,000
How about that?

4301
02:33:07,240 --> 02:33:07,580
Okay.

4302
02:33:08,040 --> 02:33:09,600
That's Dvorak, California.

4303
02:33:10,480 --> 02:33:11,700
Go get them, boys.

4304
02:33:13,760 --> 02:33:15,140
You won't be able to get out of

4305
02:33:15,140 --> 02:33:16,660
Texas with their electric cars.

4306
02:33:16,820 --> 02:33:18,600
You'll find them next to the heroin dealer.

4307
02:33:18,820 --> 02:33:20,000
It's easy to locate.

4308
02:33:20,200 --> 02:33:21,200
Just ask around.

4309
02:33:21,400 --> 02:33:22,520
Just ask the hotties.

4310
02:33:23,180 --> 02:33:24,880
They'll point you in the right direction.

4311
02:33:26,790 --> 02:33:29,050
Well, I thought it was a nice little

4312
02:33:29,050 --> 02:33:29,450
series.

4313
02:33:29,450 --> 02:33:31,570
I think it was enjoyable.

4314
02:33:31,950 --> 02:33:33,530
I'm not arguing about the clip or the

4315
02:33:33,530 --> 02:33:33,910
quality.

4316
02:33:34,090 --> 02:33:34,770
I'm just...

4317
02:33:34,770 --> 02:33:37,090
I think there's the analysis that I'm complaining

4318
02:33:37,090 --> 02:33:37,490
about.

4319
02:33:37,570 --> 02:33:38,550
Quite proud of myself.

4320
02:33:39,030 --> 02:33:42,570
Hey, dig up a Wilkerson clip.

4321
02:33:42,690 --> 02:33:43,470
Yeah, I guess so.

4322
02:33:43,630 --> 02:33:46,890
There's a meltdown in Magalan, everybody.

4323
02:33:47,170 --> 02:33:48,190
Meltdown in Magalan.

4324
02:33:49,250 --> 02:33:51,010
Is this what you voted for?

4325
02:33:51,270 --> 02:33:52,590
Yeah, that's right.

4326
02:33:52,650 --> 02:33:53,470
Did you vote for this?

4327
02:33:53,610 --> 02:33:55,050
Frau Ingraham is mad.

4328
02:33:55,170 --> 02:33:59,090
Mr. Secretary, with all due respect, how is

4329
02:33:59,090 --> 02:34:02,810
allowing 600,000 students from the communist country

4330
02:34:02,810 --> 02:34:05,130
of China putting America first?

4331
02:34:05,810 --> 02:34:08,670
Well, the president's point of view is that

4332
02:34:08,670 --> 02:34:10,650
what would happen if you didn't have those

4333
02:34:10,650 --> 02:34:13,750
600,000 students is that you'd empty them

4334
02:34:13,750 --> 02:34:14,510
from the top.

4335
02:34:14,930 --> 02:34:16,750
All the students would go up to better

4336
02:34:16,750 --> 02:34:17,270
schools.

4337
02:34:17,730 --> 02:34:20,850
And the bottom 15% of universities and

4338
02:34:20,850 --> 02:34:22,810
colleges would go out of business in America.

4339
02:34:22,970 --> 02:34:26,130
So his view is he's taking a rational

4340
02:34:26,130 --> 02:34:29,890
economic view, which is classic Donald Trump looking

4341
02:34:29,890 --> 02:34:32,870
at higher education and saying, until we modify

4342
02:34:32,870 --> 02:34:33,430
that.

4343
02:34:33,570 --> 02:34:36,250
That just helps Harvard and UCLA and UCAL

4344
02:34:36,250 --> 02:34:36,750
Berkeley.

4345
02:34:37,090 --> 02:34:39,490
And I mean, y'all helping those schools.

4346
02:34:39,630 --> 02:34:39,870
Why?

4347
02:34:40,010 --> 02:34:43,550
They're like, you know, basically factories of anti

4348
02:34:43,550 --> 02:34:44,390
-American propaganda.

4349
02:34:44,390 --> 02:34:46,510
Now they're getting a big influx of cash

4350
02:34:46,510 --> 02:34:48,150
because of the Chinese students.

4351
02:34:48,450 --> 02:34:51,450
I mean, I know President Trump has always

4352
02:34:51,450 --> 02:34:53,030
been very pro-Chinese student.

4353
02:34:53,150 --> 02:34:54,810
I just don't understand it.

4354
02:34:54,810 --> 02:34:55,570
The life of me.

4355
02:34:56,290 --> 02:34:58,670
Those are 600,000 spots that American kids

4356
02:34:58,670 --> 02:34:59,090
won't get.

4357
02:34:59,350 --> 02:35:00,730
Well, I'll tell you what I'm involved.

4358
02:35:00,870 --> 02:35:03,770
I'm involved in changing the H-1B program,

4359
02:35:04,330 --> 02:35:04,510
right?

4360
02:35:04,610 --> 02:35:07,170
We're going to change that program because that's

4361
02:35:07,170 --> 02:35:07,970
terrible, right?

4362
02:35:08,050 --> 02:35:10,410
We're going to change the green card.

4363
02:35:10,570 --> 02:35:11,850
You know, we give green cards.

4364
02:35:12,210 --> 02:35:15,350
The average American makes $75,000 a year

4365
02:35:15,350 --> 02:35:19,130
and the average green card recipient $66,000.

4366
02:35:19,550 --> 02:35:21,790
So we're taking the bottom quartile.

4367
02:35:22,090 --> 02:35:23,330
Like, why are we doing that?

4368
02:35:23,330 --> 02:35:25,590
That's why Donald Trump is going to change

4369
02:35:25,590 --> 02:35:25,790
it.

4370
02:35:26,130 --> 02:35:27,750
That's the gold card that's coming.

4371
02:35:28,130 --> 02:35:29,810
And that's we're going to start picking the

4372
02:35:29,810 --> 02:35:31,970
best people to come into this country.

4373
02:35:32,370 --> 02:35:33,710
It's time for that to change.

4374
02:35:34,210 --> 02:35:37,090
I think our American engineering students need to

4375
02:35:37,090 --> 02:35:39,110
be given the first role at every job.

4376
02:35:39,210 --> 02:35:41,170
And I think they're brilliant when given half

4377
02:35:41,170 --> 02:35:41,630
a chance.

4378
02:35:42,010 --> 02:35:43,550
But Mr. Secretary, I know you're juggling a

4379
02:35:43,550 --> 02:35:44,290
lot of balls over there.

4380
02:35:44,370 --> 02:35:46,590
We really appreciate your explaining a lot of

4381
02:35:46,590 --> 02:35:47,030
this to us.

4382
02:35:47,090 --> 02:35:47,450
Thank you.

4383
02:35:48,710 --> 02:35:50,810
Well, first of all, is the average wage

4384
02:35:50,810 --> 02:35:52,470
in America $75,000?

4385
02:35:53,030 --> 02:35:53,890
I think it's lower.

4386
02:35:56,720 --> 02:35:58,440
It's a good thing, but you ask your

4387
02:35:58,440 --> 02:35:58,960
buddy there.

4388
02:35:59,620 --> 02:36:00,780
What, the DIA guy?

4389
02:36:01,540 --> 02:36:02,600
No, your machine.

4390
02:36:02,860 --> 02:36:04,460
I'm not going to ask my machine that.

4391
02:36:04,940 --> 02:36:05,600
Ask her.

4392
02:36:06,220 --> 02:36:08,700
Oh, what's the average wage in the American

4393
02:36:08,700 --> 02:36:08,820
public?

4394
02:36:08,820 --> 02:36:10,540
I'm going to have to change her tone

4395
02:36:10,540 --> 02:36:12,240
so she doesn't sound so sexy.

4396
02:36:12,360 --> 02:36:13,880
You're all kind of giddy about it.

4397
02:36:13,920 --> 02:36:15,980
Oh, are you getting worked up about it?

4398
02:36:16,060 --> 02:36:16,840
Hold on a second.

4399
02:36:17,320 --> 02:36:20,040
What is the average income in the United

4400
02:36:20,040 --> 02:36:21,260
States of America?

4401
02:36:24,680 --> 02:36:27,100
The average annual income in the U.S.

4402
02:36:27,240 --> 02:36:29,020
is around $62,000.

4403
02:36:29,380 --> 02:36:29,660
Boom.

4404
02:36:29,840 --> 02:36:30,500
Told you.

4405
02:36:30,880 --> 02:36:31,440
Lies.

4406
02:36:32,900 --> 02:36:35,260
Yes, Howard Lutnick lies.

4407
02:36:36,020 --> 02:36:37,860
So the thing about the, you know, I

4408
02:36:37,860 --> 02:36:40,140
know, I think we've determined, or at least

4409
02:36:40,140 --> 02:36:43,380
I am totally convinced that UC Berkeley is

4410
02:36:43,380 --> 02:36:48,360
a stronghold of CIA operations to recruit foreign

4411
02:36:48,360 --> 02:36:48,960
students.

4412
02:36:49,860 --> 02:36:52,000
I mean, Ling Ling and Ding Dong over

4413
02:36:52,000 --> 02:36:53,460
there got caught in North Korea.

4414
02:36:53,920 --> 02:36:55,620
Right out of the journalism school.

4415
02:36:55,640 --> 02:36:56,280
Ling Ling and Ding Dong.

4416
02:36:56,720 --> 02:36:57,700
I forgot about that.

4417
02:36:57,720 --> 02:36:58,060
Yeah, I remember them.

4418
02:36:58,320 --> 02:36:59,080
Yes, Ling Ling.

4419
02:36:59,200 --> 02:37:00,760
Ling Long Sing Song Ding Dong.

4420
02:37:01,160 --> 02:37:01,260
Yes.

4421
02:37:01,940 --> 02:37:07,140
And so Berkeley has a tonnage of Chinese

4422
02:37:07,140 --> 02:37:10,660
nationals, always has, even when I was a

4423
02:37:10,660 --> 02:37:12,740
student, which was years before any of this

4424
02:37:12,740 --> 02:37:13,740
started to happen.

4425
02:37:15,340 --> 02:37:17,940
But now they, and they can, they try

4426
02:37:17,940 --> 02:37:19,520
to recruit them is what they're trying to

4427
02:37:19,520 --> 02:37:19,700
do.

4428
02:37:19,700 --> 02:37:22,400
You get a couple of thousand of these

4429
02:37:22,400 --> 02:37:24,100
guys and maybe one of them will turn,

4430
02:37:24,680 --> 02:37:26,720
you know, and be a good agent, a

4431
02:37:26,720 --> 02:37:31,220
spook for the agency going back to China,

4432
02:37:31,280 --> 02:37:32,380
because they all go back to China.

4433
02:37:33,340 --> 02:37:35,340
And so I don't, I think that's the

4434
02:37:35,340 --> 02:37:36,040
reason for this.

4435
02:37:36,440 --> 02:37:37,660
600,000.

4436
02:37:38,000 --> 02:37:39,440
I mean, if they're all getting a gold

4437
02:37:39,440 --> 02:37:41,420
card and spending a million, I can see

4438
02:37:41,420 --> 02:37:41,900
that.

4439
02:37:42,000 --> 02:37:43,360
I mean, all right, now you know what

4440
02:37:43,360 --> 02:37:43,720
you're getting.

4441
02:37:43,840 --> 02:37:45,220
You're getting true party members.

4442
02:37:46,940 --> 02:37:48,340
But MAGA not happy.

4443
02:37:48,340 --> 02:37:50,660
Is this exactly what you said?

4444
02:37:50,760 --> 02:37:52,280
Is this what you voted for?

4445
02:37:52,820 --> 02:37:54,340
Is this what you voted for?

4446
02:37:54,720 --> 02:37:55,660
I love that.

4447
02:37:56,140 --> 02:37:56,900
That's great.

4448
02:37:57,580 --> 02:37:58,460
Everyone always.

4449
02:37:58,700 --> 02:37:59,140
Yeah.

4450
02:38:00,100 --> 02:38:01,200
But it's really true.

4451
02:38:01,360 --> 02:38:04,200
There's a large segment of people who are

4452
02:38:04,200 --> 02:38:07,260
just continuously disappointed in President Trump.

4453
02:38:08,180 --> 02:38:08,640
Continuously.

4454
02:38:08,920 --> 02:38:10,840
They were disappointed from the get go.

4455
02:38:10,960 --> 02:38:12,380
They never liked the guy in the first

4456
02:38:12,380 --> 02:38:12,780
place.

4457
02:38:12,800 --> 02:38:13,340
No, no, no, no.

4458
02:38:13,340 --> 02:38:14,800
They don't like anything he does.

4459
02:38:15,120 --> 02:38:15,740
They were hopeful.

4460
02:38:15,900 --> 02:38:16,460
They were hopeful.

4461
02:38:16,460 --> 02:38:17,500
For what?

4462
02:38:17,600 --> 02:38:19,240
What did they expect the guy to do?

4463
02:38:19,340 --> 02:38:21,720
He's going to expose the elites, the pedos,

4464
02:38:21,900 --> 02:38:23,880
drain the swamp, all this stuff.

4465
02:38:23,980 --> 02:38:24,920
And he's done none of it.

4466
02:38:24,960 --> 02:38:25,980
I tell you, none of it.

4467
02:38:27,480 --> 02:38:29,080
They're just telling me what people are saying.

4468
02:38:29,240 --> 02:38:30,880
I understand their disappointment.

4469
02:38:31,780 --> 02:38:32,580
Be practical.

4470
02:38:34,920 --> 02:38:36,100
I'm not talking to you.

4471
02:38:36,160 --> 02:38:37,220
I'm talking about to them.

4472
02:38:37,400 --> 02:38:37,960
Oh, okay.

4473
02:38:38,260 --> 02:38:39,640
Let's go to this, these clips.

4474
02:38:39,720 --> 02:38:40,340
I got four of them.

4475
02:38:40,380 --> 02:38:41,740
Nat cast one post.

4476
02:38:42,060 --> 02:38:42,780
What is this?

4477
02:38:43,460 --> 02:38:44,780
It's a series of clips.

4478
02:38:44,780 --> 02:38:45,440
Okay.

4479
02:38:45,600 --> 02:38:48,300
So if I'm understanding this correctly, the company

4480
02:38:48,300 --> 02:38:49,780
is set up because they're going to get

4481
02:38:49,780 --> 02:38:51,780
handed a whole boatload of money and then

4482
02:38:51,780 --> 02:38:53,860
they're going to turn around and allocate it

4483
02:38:53,860 --> 02:38:56,280
to specific kinds of research.

4484
02:38:57,240 --> 02:39:00,420
Oh, I'm sorry, Nat.

4485
02:39:01,560 --> 02:39:01,880
Okay.

4486
02:39:02,220 --> 02:39:04,820
I won't complain about your naming, but okay.

4487
02:39:04,920 --> 02:39:07,840
It was not here because yes, here's.

4488
02:39:07,860 --> 02:39:07,960
Yeah.

4489
02:39:07,960 --> 02:39:09,640
They all say one, but this.

4490
02:39:10,120 --> 02:39:10,280
Yeah.

4491
02:39:10,380 --> 02:39:12,460
And the post, you know, you can complain

4492
02:39:12,460 --> 02:39:14,480
about the naming because it lacks.

4493
02:39:14,780 --> 02:39:16,300
A certain consistency.

4494
02:39:16,640 --> 02:39:18,140
I agree with you before we get to

4495
02:39:18,140 --> 02:39:18,320
it.

4496
02:39:18,720 --> 02:39:20,000
You have two number threes.

4497
02:39:20,160 --> 02:39:21,680
Which one do I play when we get

4498
02:39:21,680 --> 02:39:22,060
to it?

4499
02:39:22,760 --> 02:39:23,540
Have you determined that?

4500
02:39:23,560 --> 02:39:24,520
I'm going to have to look at the

4501
02:39:24,520 --> 02:39:26,420
time codes or we look at the date.

4502
02:39:28,140 --> 02:39:28,760
Here we go.

4503
02:39:28,820 --> 02:39:29,980
One of them is the number four.

4504
02:39:30,240 --> 02:39:30,500
Okay.

4505
02:39:30,700 --> 02:39:33,320
Commerce secretary Howard Lutnick announced that he's clawing

4506
02:39:33,320 --> 02:39:35,780
back billions of dollars earmarked by the Biden

4507
02:39:35,780 --> 02:39:38,380
administration for a company called Nat cast.

4508
02:39:38,640 --> 02:39:40,020
What the heck is Nat cast?

4509
02:39:40,020 --> 02:39:43,120
Well, it's basically a middleman that decides who

4510
02:39:43,120 --> 02:39:46,460
gets pieces of the government fiscal pie, specifically

4511
02:39:46,460 --> 02:39:48,840
cash set aside in the chips and science

4512
02:39:48,840 --> 02:39:50,660
act for semiconductor research.

4513
02:39:51,160 --> 02:39:52,740
In a letter obtained by the post, Lutnick

4514
02:39:52,740 --> 02:39:54,640
said that he was canceling a multi-billion

4515
02:39:54,640 --> 02:39:57,680
dollar contract that funneled taxpayer dollars through Nat

4516
02:39:57,680 --> 02:39:59,340
cast, which again, was created by the Biden

4517
02:39:59,340 --> 02:40:01,260
administration with a hunk of money.

4518
02:40:01,380 --> 02:40:03,400
And we're talking billions here that was pushed

4519
02:40:03,400 --> 02:40:05,660
just a few days before the former president

4520
02:40:05,660 --> 02:40:06,260
left office.

4521
02:40:06,800 --> 02:40:08,900
The nonprofit selection committee was made up of

4522
02:40:08,900 --> 02:40:10,600
former Biden administration alums.

4523
02:40:11,000 --> 02:40:13,580
And according to Lutnick, it effectively cut the

4524
02:40:13,580 --> 02:40:15,900
current administration out of the mix entirely.

4525
02:40:16,640 --> 02:40:18,040
Joining me now, the New York Post reporter

4526
02:40:18,040 --> 02:40:20,880
who broke this story, Washington bureau chief Josh

4527
02:40:20,880 --> 02:40:21,420
Christensen.

4528
02:40:21,920 --> 02:40:24,620
So Josh, it's pretty rare that we talk

4529
02:40:24,620 --> 02:40:26,660
about something on the podcast that no one

4530
02:40:26,660 --> 02:40:27,920
has ever heard of.

4531
02:40:28,080 --> 02:40:31,620
Why does this company Nat cast exist?

4532
02:40:31,760 --> 02:40:32,560
I mean, who runs it?

4533
02:40:32,560 --> 02:40:35,000
Well, Nat cast was an invention of the

4534
02:40:35,000 --> 02:40:35,960
Biden administration.

4535
02:40:36,260 --> 02:40:38,600
It was something that was cooked up, you

4536
02:40:38,600 --> 02:40:39,960
know, the last two years of the Biden

4537
02:40:39,960 --> 02:40:43,420
administration and basically crammed full of staff from

4538
02:40:43,420 --> 02:40:47,020
departing members of the commerce department, other allies

4539
02:40:47,020 --> 02:40:47,700
of the admin.

4540
02:40:48,160 --> 02:40:50,880
And it was a nonprofit that was essentially

4541
02:40:50,880 --> 02:40:54,780
set up to receive $11 billion worth of

4542
02:40:54,780 --> 02:40:58,300
taxpayer funding in order to transmit it towards

4543
02:40:58,300 --> 02:41:00,620
semiconductor research and development.

4544
02:41:01,180 --> 02:41:03,800
Yeah, this is a big controversy.

4545
02:41:05,020 --> 02:41:07,060
This what's interesting to me is this is

4546
02:41:07,060 --> 02:41:08,600
not being discussed much.

4547
02:41:08,880 --> 02:41:10,420
I never heard a Nat cast.

4548
02:41:10,620 --> 02:41:11,540
No, I never heard of that.

4549
02:41:12,580 --> 02:41:15,460
And here we go with another bullcrap operation.

4550
02:41:15,600 --> 02:41:17,400
It was set up as a front for

4551
02:41:17,400 --> 02:41:18,380
money laundering.

4552
02:41:18,420 --> 02:41:19,560
And the way I see it, this is

4553
02:41:19,560 --> 02:41:21,180
just money going to somebody's pockets.

4554
02:41:21,740 --> 02:41:22,560
We don't need that.

4555
02:41:22,840 --> 02:41:24,840
Semiconductor companies make enough money that they can

4556
02:41:24,840 --> 02:41:25,880
do their own damn research.

4557
02:41:26,620 --> 02:41:28,860
And most of the research in semiconductors nowadays

4558
02:41:28,860 --> 02:41:29,980
is done out of Holland.

4559
02:41:29,980 --> 02:41:32,240
But that company that makes the U.V.

4560
02:41:32,840 --> 02:41:36,160
A.S.M.L. Those guys.

4561
02:41:36,320 --> 02:41:38,060
Yeah, those guys are the hot shots in

4562
02:41:38,060 --> 02:41:38,800
this regard.

4563
02:41:39,140 --> 02:41:43,760
These semiconductor companies, all they do is design

4564
02:41:43,760 --> 02:41:46,320
chips and they don't need research money.

4565
02:41:46,720 --> 02:41:47,820
This is bullcrap.

4566
02:41:48,840 --> 02:41:51,940
OK, so if I'm understanding this correctly, the

4567
02:41:51,940 --> 02:41:53,500
company is set up because they're going to

4568
02:41:53,500 --> 02:41:55,540
get handed a whole boatload of money and

4569
02:41:55,540 --> 02:41:57,420
then they're going to turn around and allocate

4570
02:41:57,420 --> 02:42:01,580
it to specific kinds of research involving semiconductors.

4571
02:42:01,800 --> 02:42:04,980
OK, I kind of have that squared away

4572
02:42:04,980 --> 02:42:05,280
now.

4573
02:42:05,460 --> 02:42:08,940
So that doesn't sound, I don't know, weird

4574
02:42:08,940 --> 02:42:09,480
to me.

4575
02:42:09,580 --> 02:42:11,240
Can you explain to me what the issue

4576
02:42:11,240 --> 02:42:11,540
is?

4577
02:42:11,580 --> 02:42:14,540
What is Letnik saying the problem is with

4578
02:42:14,540 --> 02:42:17,420
NatCast getting that money and then allocating it

4579
02:42:17,420 --> 02:42:18,040
as they see fit?

4580
02:42:18,520 --> 02:42:21,160
The main problem is the lack of federal

4581
02:42:21,160 --> 02:42:24,360
oversight and the fact that such an entity

4582
02:42:24,360 --> 02:42:26,540
which has existed in the past and will

4583
02:42:26,540 --> 02:42:30,340
certainly exist again in which a private group

4584
02:42:30,340 --> 02:42:32,120
is stood up by the government in order

4585
02:42:32,120 --> 02:42:34,180
to distribute funding.

4586
02:42:34,400 --> 02:42:36,700
You know, any kind of law will have

4587
02:42:36,700 --> 02:42:40,040
different sorts of funding initiatives, often flow to

4588
02:42:40,040 --> 02:42:42,700
state entities, nonprofits, that sort of thing.

4589
02:42:42,980 --> 02:42:45,120
But in this case, the law, the CHIPS

4590
02:42:45,120 --> 02:42:47,100
Act, which was one of the big bills

4591
02:42:47,100 --> 02:42:49,880
that Biden passed during his admin, did not

4592
02:42:49,880 --> 02:42:52,740
set up any sort of independent extra governmental

4593
02:42:52,740 --> 02:42:55,620
entity to take all that money and throw

4594
02:42:55,620 --> 02:42:56,280
it out the door.

4595
02:42:56,980 --> 02:42:58,380
And Letnik is saying, well, we have no

4596
02:42:58,380 --> 02:42:59,860
clue where all this went.

4597
02:43:00,160 --> 02:43:01,740
And in particular, what we know for a

4598
02:43:01,740 --> 02:43:04,560
fact is it was 11 billion dollars in

4599
02:43:04,560 --> 02:43:07,720
total, but 7.4 billion dollars worth of

4600
02:43:07,720 --> 02:43:09,820
that went out the door in the last

4601
02:43:09,820 --> 02:43:12,420
four days of the administration with no oversight.

4602
02:43:12,940 --> 02:43:15,480
And so he's wanting to, you know, call

4603
02:43:15,480 --> 02:43:17,160
them to account for this and say, well,

4604
02:43:17,180 --> 02:43:18,340
you know, where is this money gone?

4605
02:43:18,680 --> 02:43:19,360
We don't know.

4606
02:43:19,460 --> 02:43:21,000
We have no way of looking into it.

4607
02:43:21,000 --> 02:43:23,820
And so I'm voiding this agreement as it

4608
02:43:23,820 --> 02:43:24,560
stands currently.

4609
02:43:25,260 --> 02:43:28,100
OK, so on the is that what you

4610
02:43:28,100 --> 02:43:30,440
voted for side of the equation?

4611
02:43:30,620 --> 02:43:33,940
The complaint is what kind of capitalism is

4612
02:43:33,940 --> 02:43:36,480
this where you're taking a stake in companies?

4613
02:43:37,320 --> 02:43:40,420
I did not hear anyone say what kind

4614
02:43:40,420 --> 02:43:43,160
of capitalism is this where you're giving people

4615
02:43:43,160 --> 02:43:43,680
money?

4616
02:43:45,880 --> 02:43:47,580
It's both wrong.

4617
02:43:48,660 --> 02:43:50,380
Well, I say if you're going to give

4618
02:43:50,380 --> 02:43:53,120
him money, at least get something.

4619
02:43:53,420 --> 02:43:55,340
Well, I mean, I'm not a defender of

4620
02:43:55,340 --> 02:43:57,420
the idea of buying chunks of Intel, which

4621
02:43:57,420 --> 02:43:59,640
is most people see as a failing company.

4622
02:43:59,740 --> 02:44:00,120
Yeah.

4623
02:44:00,400 --> 02:44:02,940
Unless, you know, something's going to happen and

4624
02:44:02,940 --> 02:44:04,760
it's going to profit the government.

4625
02:44:05,060 --> 02:44:07,120
Oh, insider trading by the government.

4626
02:44:07,380 --> 02:44:07,760
Interesting.

4627
02:44:08,540 --> 02:44:09,740
That would be OK.

4628
02:44:10,400 --> 02:44:11,280
Yeah, yeah.

4629
02:44:11,360 --> 02:44:12,480
That would be great.

4630
02:44:13,320 --> 02:44:15,220
But do you think that's possible?

4631
02:44:15,400 --> 02:44:16,860
I don't.

4632
02:44:16,860 --> 02:44:19,040
Because I don't think the government's that skilled.

4633
02:44:19,700 --> 02:44:22,500
But this whole NatCast thing and throwing this

4634
02:44:22,500 --> 02:44:24,840
is too much money being just thrown around

4635
02:44:24,840 --> 02:44:25,540
aimlessly.

4636
02:44:25,720 --> 02:44:27,120
This is ridiculous waste.

4637
02:44:27,320 --> 02:44:28,500
But it was already thrown around.

4638
02:44:28,620 --> 02:44:29,060
It was already.

4639
02:44:29,100 --> 02:44:30,000
Yeah, well, it goes.

4640
02:44:30,140 --> 02:44:31,160
Everyone's gone nuts.

4641
02:44:31,920 --> 02:44:32,400
Yes.

4642
02:44:32,560 --> 02:44:36,420
So now I've looked at the timestamps and

4643
02:44:36,420 --> 02:44:39,020
I believe the two minute 11 clip will

4644
02:44:39,020 --> 02:44:40,520
be clip four.

4645
02:44:40,860 --> 02:44:41,640
Could that be right?

4646
02:44:41,800 --> 02:44:43,240
We have a one minute clip next.

4647
02:44:43,460 --> 02:44:44,320
And here we go.

4648
02:44:44,320 --> 02:44:46,400
What happens to the money now?

4649
02:44:46,560 --> 02:44:48,680
Where does this money go, especially if there's

4650
02:44:48,680 --> 02:44:49,560
a legal challenge?

4651
02:44:49,720 --> 02:44:50,680
I mean, is it just sitting there in

4652
02:44:50,680 --> 02:44:51,060
limbo?

4653
02:44:51,400 --> 02:44:53,640
I mean, it was kind of I mean,

4654
02:44:53,660 --> 02:44:55,620
as far as I could tell, they were

4655
02:44:55,620 --> 02:44:58,980
saying that up until 2034, there were plans

4656
02:44:58,980 --> 02:45:01,160
to have some sorts of payments annually.

4657
02:45:01,620 --> 02:45:04,400
So it's unclear whether the voiding of it

4658
02:45:04,400 --> 02:45:06,260
would then allow them to claw it back

4659
02:45:06,260 --> 02:45:10,440
entirely or whether they've already tried to send

4660
02:45:10,440 --> 02:45:12,920
most of it out, even from NatCast.

4661
02:45:13,020 --> 02:45:13,220
Right.

4662
02:45:13,220 --> 02:45:16,080
So it's even a step further away from

4663
02:45:16,080 --> 02:45:17,240
the government's coffers.

4664
02:45:17,980 --> 02:45:20,440
But, yeah, it's something that I'm sure Lutnick's

4665
02:45:20,440 --> 02:45:22,520
team was talking about with them today after

4666
02:45:22,520 --> 02:45:24,060
they received the letter.

4667
02:45:24,380 --> 02:45:26,560
As with the EPA case, you know, you

4668
02:45:26,560 --> 02:45:28,900
see there's many steps in the process before

4669
02:45:28,900 --> 02:45:31,100
the government can actually just get the money

4670
02:45:31,100 --> 02:45:33,300
back because it's already gone through so much

4671
02:45:33,300 --> 02:45:35,940
to get out of taxpayers hands and into

4672
02:45:35,940 --> 02:45:38,800
the pockets of special interests or whoever might

4673
02:45:38,800 --> 02:45:39,720
be in line for it.

4674
02:45:39,720 --> 02:45:42,680
This is a facet of the changing of

4675
02:45:42,680 --> 02:45:44,780
the garden government that I never actually knew

4676
02:45:44,780 --> 02:45:46,380
about or thought of, but it makes a

4677
02:45:46,380 --> 02:45:46,860
lot of sense.

4678
02:45:46,960 --> 02:45:48,440
So a very great story.

4679
02:45:48,520 --> 02:45:50,100
Thank you for breaking it and coming on

4680
02:45:50,100 --> 02:45:51,260
the podcast to talk about it.

4681
02:45:51,260 --> 02:45:52,400
Josh Christensen, thanks so much.

4682
02:45:52,680 --> 02:45:54,140
Sounds like we did him out of order.

4683
02:45:56,300 --> 02:45:58,540
I think that probably concludes it.

4684
02:45:58,580 --> 02:45:59,640
I don't think you need to play the

4685
02:45:59,640 --> 02:46:00,220
long clip.

4686
02:46:00,220 --> 02:46:02,020
But just so you know, the long clip

4687
02:46:02,020 --> 02:46:10,720
was done at 820 and 41 seconds and

4688
02:46:10,720 --> 02:46:13,660
the shorter clip was 820 and 20 seconds.

4689
02:46:13,820 --> 02:46:15,060
So I just presumed.

4690
02:46:15,660 --> 02:46:18,040
I think that may have been the chip

4691
02:46:18,040 --> 02:46:18,460
time.

4692
02:46:19,240 --> 02:46:19,740
Probably.

4693
02:46:20,700 --> 02:46:20,940
Yeah.

4694
02:46:21,040 --> 02:46:22,140
So it doesn't make any sense.

4695
02:46:22,260 --> 02:46:22,460
All right.

4696
02:46:22,540 --> 02:46:23,860
Well, I'd have to go to the original

4697
02:46:23,860 --> 02:46:27,180
files, but I think that summarizes the problem

4698
02:46:27,180 --> 02:46:30,340
is we have another waste of taxpayers money.

4699
02:46:30,480 --> 02:46:31,980
And you wonder why we're in debt.

4700
02:46:32,080 --> 02:46:33,640
Thirty five trillion dollars.

4701
02:46:34,340 --> 02:46:36,200
But that's that's all ending.

4702
02:46:37,640 --> 02:46:38,480
That's all ending.

4703
02:46:38,740 --> 02:46:39,620
Oh, are you kidding me?

4704
02:46:39,780 --> 02:46:40,100
Any minute now.

4705
02:46:40,280 --> 02:46:40,780
Any minute.

4706
02:46:41,180 --> 02:46:44,700
I, of course, watch the the Trump show,

4707
02:46:45,280 --> 02:46:46,240
the cabinet meetings.

4708
02:46:46,340 --> 02:46:46,640
Highly.

4709
02:46:46,660 --> 02:46:47,640
Three and a half hour.

4710
02:46:47,720 --> 02:46:48,020
Trump.

4711
02:46:48,220 --> 02:46:49,220
Oh, I love it.

4712
02:46:49,780 --> 02:46:50,240
Extravaganza.

4713
02:46:50,520 --> 02:46:51,700
I can't get enough of it.

4714
02:46:51,880 --> 02:46:54,480
I I wait to set it up, set

4715
02:46:54,480 --> 02:46:55,520
it up, set it up, set up.

4716
02:46:55,520 --> 02:46:57,280
Here is NPR.

4717
02:46:57,540 --> 02:46:58,420
We'll set it up for you.

4718
02:46:58,460 --> 02:47:00,620
Did anything else stand out to you about

4719
02:47:00,620 --> 02:47:02,940
this very, very long cabinet meeting?

4720
02:47:03,560 --> 02:47:05,800
Well, it was very, very long, according to

4721
02:47:05,800 --> 02:47:07,580
Fact Base, which how long was it?

4722
02:47:07,700 --> 02:47:08,380
Asked these things.

4723
02:47:08,440 --> 02:47:11,040
It was the longest Trump event ever, longer

4724
02:47:11,040 --> 02:47:12,640
than any other cabinet meeting.

4725
02:47:12,740 --> 02:47:13,920
And it was effusive.

4726
02:47:14,540 --> 02:47:17,700
Cabinet secretaries took turns showering Trump with praise

4727
02:47:17,700 --> 02:47:20,080
like the labor secretary who said Trump should

4728
02:47:20,080 --> 02:47:21,860
come over to the department to see the

4729
02:47:21,860 --> 02:47:23,940
banner they now have hanging on the side

4730
02:47:23,940 --> 02:47:26,880
of the building of his, quote, big, beautiful

4731
02:47:26,880 --> 02:47:27,480
face.

4732
02:47:27,660 --> 02:47:28,720
Oh, my goodness.

4733
02:47:28,860 --> 02:47:30,880
Well, that's what NPR does with your money.

4734
02:47:31,000 --> 02:47:33,400
We'll just actually listen to what was said.

4735
02:47:33,580 --> 02:47:35,940
This is now Scott Besant, who, by the

4736
02:47:35,940 --> 02:47:39,300
way, I should mention this is part of

4737
02:47:39,300 --> 02:47:40,100
the A-gays.

4738
02:47:40,240 --> 02:47:41,140
Have you heard about this?

4739
02:47:42,640 --> 02:47:43,400
The A-gays?

4740
02:47:43,460 --> 02:47:43,800
Nope.

4741
02:47:43,900 --> 02:47:45,120
You've got me on this one.

4742
02:47:45,320 --> 02:47:45,720
Yes.

4743
02:47:45,940 --> 02:47:46,180
Yes.

4744
02:47:46,300 --> 02:47:47,020
A-gays?

4745
02:47:47,260 --> 02:47:47,640
Yes.

4746
02:47:47,720 --> 02:47:48,580
That's a new term.

4747
02:47:48,580 --> 02:47:48,920
So he's gay?

4748
02:47:49,120 --> 02:47:50,180
I didn't know he's out gay.

4749
02:47:50,360 --> 02:47:50,880
Oh, Besant.

4750
02:47:50,960 --> 02:47:51,320
Yeah, yeah.

4751
02:47:51,440 --> 02:47:52,000
Besant's gay.

4752
02:47:52,360 --> 02:47:52,800
Oh, OK.

4753
02:47:52,960 --> 02:47:53,360
Besant.

4754
02:47:53,360 --> 02:47:54,820
A-gays?

4755
02:47:55,040 --> 02:47:56,540
Yeah, it's called the A-gays.

4756
02:47:57,000 --> 02:47:58,120
Here, New York Times.

4757
02:47:58,260 --> 02:47:59,500
I got the article for you.

4758
02:48:00,040 --> 02:48:00,880
Donald Trump's...

4759
02:48:01,580 --> 02:48:03,720
It's not loading now, of course, for a

4760
02:48:03,720 --> 02:48:03,940
moment.

4761
02:48:04,060 --> 02:48:05,280
I don't know why that's happening.

4762
02:48:06,520 --> 02:48:07,160
Hold on.

4763
02:48:07,380 --> 02:48:09,600
I had it on archive.org, but for

4764
02:48:09,600 --> 02:48:12,360
some reason the New York Times probably took

4765
02:48:12,360 --> 02:48:12,720
it down.

4766
02:48:13,080 --> 02:48:13,520
Here we go.

4767
02:48:14,780 --> 02:48:16,700
Donald Trump's big gay government.

4768
02:48:17,720 --> 02:48:18,960
Big gay government?

4769
02:48:20,740 --> 02:48:22,500
Yes, because he has a lot of gay

4770
02:48:22,500 --> 02:48:23,220
guys in there.

4771
02:48:24,640 --> 02:48:25,080
And...

4772
02:48:25,080 --> 02:48:25,880
Oh, shoot, man.

4773
02:48:26,100 --> 02:48:26,780
I'm sorry.

4774
02:48:27,000 --> 02:48:30,240
Now I can't get to the article.

4775
02:48:31,100 --> 02:48:32,500
Oh, that sucks so bad.

4776
02:48:32,620 --> 02:48:33,020
Let me see.

4777
02:48:33,040 --> 02:48:33,640
They blocked it.

4778
02:48:34,020 --> 02:48:34,820
They did block it.

4779
02:48:34,840 --> 02:48:35,440
Well, let me see.

4780
02:48:35,540 --> 02:48:37,380
Here's another version of it.

4781
02:48:42,040 --> 02:48:45,100
So they talk about the A-gays.

4782
02:48:46,020 --> 02:48:46,900
They're mostly...

4783
02:48:46,900 --> 02:48:47,520
It's A-gays?

4784
02:48:48,400 --> 02:48:48,580
A-gays.

4785
02:48:48,580 --> 02:48:49,220
G-a-y-s?

4786
02:48:49,340 --> 02:48:52,000
Yes, as in the top dogs.

4787
02:48:52,200 --> 02:48:52,520
The top gays.

4788
02:48:52,520 --> 02:48:53,700
So it'd be a capital A?

4789
02:48:53,760 --> 02:48:56,640
Capital A-capital G-a-y-s.

4790
02:48:57,200 --> 02:48:58,200
They're mostly out.

4791
02:48:58,280 --> 02:49:00,340
They're proud to work for President Donald Trump,

4792
02:49:00,400 --> 02:49:02,660
and they have big jobs inside or alongside

4793
02:49:02,660 --> 02:49:03,680
this administration.

4794
02:49:04,240 --> 02:49:04,800
They have big what?

4795
02:49:05,260 --> 02:49:06,560
They have big jobs.

4796
02:49:06,740 --> 02:49:10,400
Big jobs inside or alongside this administration.

4797
02:49:10,620 --> 02:49:12,820
They wield influence all over town, from the

4798
02:49:12,820 --> 02:49:14,680
Pentagon to the State Department to the White

4799
02:49:14,680 --> 02:49:15,860
House to the Kennedy Center.

4800
02:49:16,260 --> 02:49:17,340
We're like Visa.

4801
02:49:17,820 --> 02:49:19,640
We're everywhere you want to be.

4802
02:49:20,300 --> 02:49:22,360
The most powerful out gay man in the

4803
02:49:22,360 --> 02:49:23,820
Trump administration is Besant.

4804
02:49:24,420 --> 02:49:25,660
There are a handful of others in the

4805
02:49:25,660 --> 02:49:26,300
Treasury Department.

4806
02:49:26,520 --> 02:49:29,780
Other A-gays include Tony Fabrizio, the president's

4807
02:49:29,780 --> 02:49:33,580
longtime pollster, Trent Morse, outgoing deputy assistant to

4808
02:49:33,580 --> 02:49:36,060
the president, Richard Grenell, who was put in

4809
02:49:36,060 --> 02:49:38,840
charge of the Kennedy Center, and Jacob Helberg,

4810
02:49:38,960 --> 02:49:40,160
an undersecretary of state.

4811
02:49:40,420 --> 02:49:41,400
These are just some.

4812
02:49:41,660 --> 02:49:43,680
There are lots of other lesser-known men

4813
02:49:43,680 --> 02:49:45,160
who make up the tribe.

4814
02:49:46,460 --> 02:49:47,720
This is a great article.

4815
02:49:48,360 --> 02:49:49,320
Let me read another paragraph.

4816
02:49:49,640 --> 02:49:51,220
They're overwhelmingly white.

4817
02:49:51,480 --> 02:49:52,820
Oh, it's the white gays.

4818
02:49:52,960 --> 02:49:53,880
The white gays.

4819
02:49:53,880 --> 02:49:54,940
There's something bad.

4820
02:49:55,020 --> 02:49:56,560
We knew there was something wrong with them.

4821
02:49:57,040 --> 02:49:58,700
They tend to have a certain kind of

4822
02:49:58,700 --> 02:49:59,080
look.

4823
02:49:59,720 --> 02:50:02,680
Close-cropped haircuts, windowpane suits.

4824
02:50:03,100 --> 02:50:04,740
They're not the type to be telling anyone

4825
02:50:04,740 --> 02:50:07,060
their pronouns or using the word queer.

4826
02:50:07,360 --> 02:50:09,900
No, because they're normal guys who just happen

4827
02:50:09,900 --> 02:50:10,920
to like guys.

4828
02:50:11,380 --> 02:50:14,180
They don't have to be weird and queer.

4829
02:50:14,840 --> 02:50:16,480
And they aren't the least bit offended that

4830
02:50:16,480 --> 02:50:18,560
the leader of their party continues to stoke

4831
02:50:18,560 --> 02:50:20,940
a moral panic about transgender people.

4832
02:50:21,360 --> 02:50:21,720
Exactly.

4833
02:50:23,120 --> 02:50:23,720
They're gay.

4834
02:50:23,940 --> 02:50:25,680
How is this a shocker to anybody?

4835
02:50:25,860 --> 02:50:26,560
The New York Times.

4836
02:50:26,760 --> 02:50:28,720
They're gay, but they're still Republicans.

4837
02:50:29,760 --> 02:50:30,840
This is fantastic.

4838
02:50:32,140 --> 02:50:32,820
Keep reading.

4839
02:50:33,440 --> 02:50:33,880
Really?

4840
02:50:34,020 --> 02:50:34,940
You want me to keep reading?

4841
02:50:35,040 --> 02:50:35,780
Let me see if I can.

4842
02:50:36,340 --> 02:50:37,900
The gay men who work for him are

4843
02:50:37,900 --> 02:50:40,820
keenly aware they're in hostile territory, surrounded by

4844
02:50:40,820 --> 02:50:43,540
other gay men who consider themselves deluded traitors

4845
02:50:43,540 --> 02:50:46,620
or worse At gay bars around town and

4846
02:50:46,620 --> 02:50:49,120
on dating apps, they're either iced out or

4847
02:50:49,120 --> 02:50:51,560
confronted about the things this president has said

4848
02:50:51,560 --> 02:50:52,020
and done.

4849
02:50:52,460 --> 02:50:54,620
He cut AIDS relief around the world and

4850
02:50:54,620 --> 02:50:58,020
HIV vaccine research and funding for LGBTQ plus

4851
02:50:58,020 --> 02:50:59,680
suicide prevention services.

4852
02:50:59,800 --> 02:51:00,180
Not true.

4853
02:51:00,800 --> 02:51:03,540
His defense secretary announced during Pride Month that

4854
02:51:03,540 --> 02:51:05,620
the Navy vessel named after Harvey Milk will

4855
02:51:05,620 --> 02:51:07,700
be renamed as an outrage amongst the gay

4856
02:51:07,700 --> 02:51:08,100
community.

4857
02:51:08,820 --> 02:51:11,900
Perhaps most worrying for many gay people is

4858
02:51:11,900 --> 02:51:15,620
how the conservative Supreme Court has become thanks

4859
02:51:15,620 --> 02:51:16,220
to Trump.

4860
02:51:16,520 --> 02:51:18,920
Could same-sex marriage go the way of

4861
02:51:18,920 --> 02:51:19,340
Roe?

4862
02:51:19,360 --> 02:51:20,820
It's not out of the question.

4863
02:51:22,440 --> 02:51:25,880
This is all supposition at this point in

4864
02:51:25,880 --> 02:51:26,540
the article.

4865
02:51:26,880 --> 02:51:29,400
In other words, the New York Times article

4866
02:51:29,400 --> 02:51:31,620
that you started reading with some actual information,

4867
02:51:31,900 --> 02:51:33,660
although it's an upside down pyramid the way

4868
02:51:33,660 --> 02:51:35,000
to do journalism, but that's OK.

4869
02:51:35,000 --> 02:51:37,820
It shows that it just starts to fall

4870
02:51:37,820 --> 02:51:40,400
apart and go into supposition and opinion.

4871
02:51:41,120 --> 02:51:43,780
Gay Trump appointees interviewed for this article, some

4872
02:51:43,780 --> 02:51:45,620
of whom said they weren't authorized to speak

4873
02:51:45,620 --> 02:51:49,620
on the record, dismiss such a probrium, a

4874
02:51:49,620 --> 02:51:52,020
probrium, what does that mean?

4875
02:51:56,140 --> 02:51:57,860
You need to ask your friend.

4876
02:51:57,980 --> 02:52:00,120
I can almost define it, but I can't

4877
02:52:00,120 --> 02:52:01,380
with any real accuracy.

4878
02:52:01,720 --> 02:52:03,280
Something that brings disgrace.

4879
02:52:04,000 --> 02:52:04,520
OK.

4880
02:52:04,860 --> 02:52:05,600
Public disgrace.

4881
02:52:06,480 --> 02:52:10,180
Dismiss such a probrium as overheated liberal whining.

4882
02:52:10,920 --> 02:52:12,620
They argue that the battle for gay rights

4883
02:52:12,620 --> 02:52:15,060
has basically been won, and there's never been

4884
02:52:15,060 --> 02:52:17,140
a Republican as friendly to the gays as

4885
02:52:17,140 --> 02:52:17,500
Trump.

4886
02:52:17,860 --> 02:52:19,900
He's a friendly gay lover guy.

4887
02:52:20,320 --> 02:52:21,420
Did they say the gays?

4888
02:52:22,840 --> 02:52:24,540
No, they said gay.

4889
02:52:24,620 --> 02:52:25,460
Did I say the gays?

4890
02:52:25,640 --> 02:52:27,020
He said the gays.

4891
02:52:27,260 --> 02:52:29,460
They argue for the battle for gay rights

4892
02:52:29,460 --> 02:52:30,280
has basically been won.

4893
02:52:30,380 --> 02:52:32,460
There's never been a Republican as friend.

4894
02:52:32,460 --> 02:52:34,980
Yeah, as friendly to the gays as Trump.

4895
02:52:35,100 --> 02:52:35,800
Yeah, there you go.

4896
02:52:35,880 --> 02:52:36,520
The gays.

4897
02:52:36,840 --> 02:52:37,600
The gays.

4898
02:52:37,860 --> 02:52:39,280
Did you write this for the New York

4899
02:52:39,280 --> 02:52:39,720
Times?

4900
02:52:40,420 --> 02:52:41,360
Own up to it.

4901
02:52:41,700 --> 02:52:43,020
This is a great article.

4902
02:52:43,180 --> 02:52:44,860
I just love the whole a gays.

4903
02:52:45,520 --> 02:52:45,760
Yeah.

4904
02:52:46,060 --> 02:52:46,540
And you know what?

4905
02:52:46,740 --> 02:52:49,480
They're just good looking men who are just

4906
02:52:49,480 --> 02:52:52,700
dressing nicely, doing their thing, not walking around

4907
02:52:52,700 --> 02:52:53,640
going, I'm gay.

4908
02:52:54,920 --> 02:52:55,440
Yes.

4909
02:52:56,060 --> 02:52:56,460
Surprise.

4910
02:52:57,080 --> 02:52:58,640
They're gays, not fruits.

4911
02:52:58,640 --> 02:52:59,140
Yeah.

4912
02:53:00,300 --> 02:53:00,860
Surprised.

4913
02:53:01,000 --> 02:53:01,180
What?

4914
02:53:01,300 --> 02:53:02,300
New York Times surprise.

4915
02:53:02,500 --> 02:53:04,440
Anyway, here's the course they were.

4916
02:53:04,580 --> 02:53:06,680
Here's the top a gay Scott Besson telling

4917
02:53:06,680 --> 02:53:08,480
us we don't have to worry about the

4918
02:53:08,480 --> 02:53:08,960
deficit.

4919
02:53:09,280 --> 02:53:12,120
On the international front, you have leveled the

4920
02:53:12,120 --> 02:53:16,340
international trading system whereby countries took advantage of

4921
02:53:16,340 --> 02:53:16,620
us.

4922
02:53:16,800 --> 02:53:17,440
And that's over.

4923
02:53:17,680 --> 02:53:18,260
It's over.

4924
02:53:18,860 --> 02:53:23,180
The Treasury Department is taking in record tariff

4925
02:53:23,180 --> 02:53:27,120
revenues that I had been saying was running

4926
02:53:27,120 --> 02:53:29,280
at a rate of 300 billion a year.

4927
02:53:29,880 --> 02:53:32,820
You chastise me for saying that it's not

4928
02:53:32,820 --> 02:53:34,720
that that number is too low.

4929
02:53:34,880 --> 02:53:38,860
And as usual, you're right that we had

4930
02:53:38,860 --> 02:53:42,760
a substantial jump from July to August.

4931
02:53:42,900 --> 02:53:44,720
And I think we're going to see a

4932
02:53:44,720 --> 02:53:47,460
bigger jump from August to September.

4933
02:53:47,880 --> 02:53:50,640
So I think we could be on our

4934
02:53:50,640 --> 02:53:55,360
way well over half a trillion, maybe the

4935
02:53:55,360 --> 02:53:57,200
towards the trillion dollar number.

4936
02:53:58,040 --> 02:54:01,640
This administration, your administration has made a meaningful

4937
02:54:01,640 --> 02:54:03,140
dent in the budget deficit.

4938
02:54:03,460 --> 02:54:07,180
The average budget deficit during this term is

4939
02:54:07,180 --> 02:54:09,980
26 percent less than the last 12 months

4940
02:54:09,980 --> 02:54:12,680
under Biden and even the CBO.

4941
02:54:12,880 --> 02:54:16,000
And we don't agree with CBO on everything.

4942
02:54:16,000 --> 02:54:20,960
As you said last Friday, on a summer

4943
02:54:20,960 --> 02:54:24,700
Friday, had to admit that they believe over

4944
02:54:24,700 --> 02:54:27,260
the next 10 years, the budget deficit will

4945
02:54:27,260 --> 02:54:31,500
be four trillion lower than they had previously

4946
02:54:31,500 --> 02:54:31,860
scored.

4947
02:54:32,000 --> 02:54:35,480
Four trillion, 3.3 trillion of tariff income,

4948
02:54:36,340 --> 02:54:39,400
700 billion of lower interest costs.

4949
02:54:39,780 --> 02:54:42,260
And I would expect that that number could

4950
02:54:42,260 --> 02:54:43,340
go up from here.

4951
02:54:43,860 --> 02:54:45,720
Four trillion dollars.

4952
02:54:46,580 --> 02:54:47,640
It's going to be great.

4953
02:54:47,740 --> 02:54:49,580
We'll only have 32 trillion to go.

4954
02:54:50,820 --> 02:54:53,180
I'll believe it when I see it.

4955
02:55:06,560 --> 02:55:08,920
But before we go anywhere, we have a

4956
02:55:08,920 --> 02:55:10,160
lot more show to go.

4957
02:55:10,560 --> 02:55:12,860
We have, of course, end of show mixes.

4958
02:55:12,860 --> 02:55:14,760
We have a tip of the day and

4959
02:55:14,760 --> 02:55:17,240
we always want to thank our supporters who

4960
02:55:17,240 --> 02:55:19,500
supported us with value for the value they

4961
02:55:19,500 --> 02:55:20,040
received.

4962
02:55:20,340 --> 02:55:22,200
Fifty dollars and above left on the docket.

4963
02:55:22,340 --> 02:55:24,640
John will list them and name them for

4964
02:55:24,640 --> 02:55:24,960
you.

4965
02:55:25,360 --> 02:55:26,660
Yeah, we're going to start with Hank there

4966
02:55:26,660 --> 02:55:28,600
and 113 dollars and 41 cents.

4967
02:55:28,700 --> 02:55:29,300
Parts unknown.

4968
02:55:29,440 --> 02:55:30,840
You can read this note because it's a

4969
02:55:30,840 --> 02:55:31,440
night note.

4970
02:55:32,060 --> 02:55:32,900
He's becoming a night.

4971
02:55:33,600 --> 02:55:36,960
Enclosed is my donation of 8.08 and

4972
02:55:36,960 --> 02:55:39,500
33.33 for value provided.

4973
02:55:39,660 --> 02:55:41,300
This should grant me an invitation to the

4974
02:55:41,300 --> 02:55:41,840
roundtable.

4975
02:55:41,840 --> 02:55:44,080
As per my card sent early this year,

4976
02:55:44,140 --> 02:55:45,140
along with other goodies.

4977
02:55:45,580 --> 02:55:48,400
Please knight me as Sir Hank Itami.

4978
02:55:48,980 --> 02:55:50,740
I would like to request for the roundtable

4979
02:55:50,740 --> 02:55:54,580
a mega-sized cup of grapefruit sour along

4980
02:55:54,580 --> 02:55:57,180
with a bowl of cookie and cream ice.

4981
02:55:57,540 --> 02:55:58,980
Cookie and cream ice cream.

4982
02:55:59,440 --> 02:56:00,760
Isn't it cookies and cream?

4983
02:56:01,660 --> 02:56:03,480
I ordered cookies and cream, so that's what

4984
02:56:03,480 --> 02:56:03,760
you get.

4985
02:56:03,860 --> 02:56:05,920
Hopefully there's enough steam to keep this show

4986
02:56:05,920 --> 02:56:06,240
going.

4987
02:56:06,320 --> 02:56:07,560
Maybe another four years.

4988
02:56:07,780 --> 02:56:09,340
Thank you for your attention to this matter,

4989
02:56:09,440 --> 02:56:10,140
says Hank.

4990
02:56:11,920 --> 02:56:13,280
Dame Rita is up at the top of

4991
02:56:13,280 --> 02:56:14,360
the list in Sparks, Nevada.

4992
02:56:14,560 --> 02:56:16,360
She comes in with 108 dollars and 28

4993
02:56:16,360 --> 02:56:17,420
cents, which is the date.

4994
02:56:18,600 --> 02:56:20,900
And she says the newsletter has not been

4995
02:56:20,900 --> 02:56:25,280
in my email since 8.20. Shall I

4996
02:56:25,280 --> 02:56:25,840
sign up again?

4997
02:56:25,920 --> 02:56:27,520
Yes, please sign up again just to make

4998
02:56:27,520 --> 02:56:27,720
sure.

4999
02:56:27,840 --> 02:56:28,560
I don't know what they do.

5000
02:56:28,680 --> 02:56:30,400
We're having issues of all sorts.

5001
02:56:31,200 --> 02:56:33,560
Brendan Brown and Arnelia.

5002
02:56:33,680 --> 02:56:34,780
Oh, hi, Arnelia.

5003
02:56:36,320 --> 02:56:37,120
Or Amelia.

5004
02:56:39,180 --> 02:56:41,080
Amelia, Amelia, Amelia.

5005
02:56:41,080 --> 02:56:42,860
House buying karma he wants.

5006
02:56:42,960 --> 02:56:43,980
We'll put that at the end for you.

5007
02:56:44,280 --> 02:56:48,840
And then he, Brandon says, please donate people.

5008
02:56:49,220 --> 02:56:50,140
No, we want money.

5009
02:56:50,140 --> 02:56:50,680
We want money.

5010
02:56:50,820 --> 02:56:51,760
We don't, don't, don't say.

5011
02:56:51,760 --> 02:56:52,600
We don't want people.

5012
02:56:52,600 --> 02:56:53,660
We don't want blankets.

5013
02:56:53,920 --> 02:56:54,480
We don't want water.

5014
02:56:54,480 --> 02:56:55,220
We don't want people.

5015
02:56:55,340 --> 02:56:56,480
We just want your cash.

5016
02:56:58,800 --> 02:57:00,480
Charlie Shelton, 100 dollars.

5017
02:57:02,280 --> 02:57:06,900
Mike, Mike Litke in Tinley Park, Illinois, 8008.

5018
02:57:07,360 --> 02:57:09,440
Happy birthday to, oh, I wonder if that's

5019
02:57:09,440 --> 02:57:09,880
on the list.

5020
02:57:09,880 --> 02:57:13,320
Matthew wishing a happy birthday to Sabrina Contreras

5021
02:57:13,320 --> 02:57:15,880
on 8.29. You'll check that.

5022
02:57:16,120 --> 02:57:20,500
Eric Mackey, or Mackey, Mackey, Mackey in Blairsville,

5023
02:57:20,660 --> 02:57:22,000
Georgia, 8008.

5024
02:57:22,080 --> 02:57:24,680
For his smoking hot fiance, Kevin McLaughlin.

5025
02:57:24,820 --> 02:57:26,500
He's the Archduke of Luna lover, American lover

5026
02:57:26,500 --> 02:57:28,340
of melons, 8008.

5027
02:57:28,680 --> 02:57:31,840
Brian Kaufman in Scottsdale, Arizona, 7575.

5028
02:57:32,220 --> 02:57:36,180
John Alberini, 7020, 7026.

5029
02:57:37,200 --> 02:57:38,700
Whoops, sorry.

5030
02:57:38,700 --> 02:57:44,440
Andrew Foreman in Boca Raton, Rat's Tale, Florida.

5031
02:57:44,820 --> 02:57:46,360
That's the mouth of the rat, not the

5032
02:57:46,360 --> 02:57:46,660
tail.

5033
02:57:46,980 --> 02:57:49,380
I thought it was rat, rat, boca, the

5034
02:57:49,380 --> 02:57:51,320
butt of the rat, rat, boca rat.

5035
02:57:51,580 --> 02:57:52,460
Mouth of the rat.

5036
02:57:53,880 --> 02:57:57,280
Well, rats are involved in Florida, 6331.

5037
02:57:58,420 --> 02:57:59,440
And he wants some jobs.

5038
02:57:59,540 --> 02:58:00,700
Karma will give you that at the end.

5039
02:58:02,740 --> 02:58:03,940
Quick question for John.

5040
02:58:04,000 --> 02:58:04,860
When are you going to be back on

5041
02:58:04,860 --> 02:58:05,580
Twit next?

5042
02:58:07,100 --> 02:58:07,620
And?

5043
02:58:07,780 --> 02:58:08,080
And?

5044
02:58:08,120 --> 02:58:09,580
Inquiring minds want to know.

5045
02:58:10,240 --> 02:58:11,060
Probably never.

5046
02:58:12,100 --> 02:58:12,700
Wesley D.

5047
02:58:13,180 --> 02:58:16,120
Stewart III in Mesa, Arizona, 6262.

5048
02:58:16,200 --> 02:58:17,160
Another birthday donation.

5049
02:58:17,300 --> 02:58:20,140
Les Tarkowsky in Kingman, Arizona, 6006.

5050
02:58:20,920 --> 02:58:24,320
And there's Sir Laugh-A-Lot with 5809.

5051
02:58:24,380 --> 02:58:27,320
Another knighting donation, which you should read part

5052
02:58:27,320 --> 02:58:27,940
of, at least.

5053
02:58:27,940 --> 02:58:29,540
It's a long note that shouldn't be in

5054
02:58:29,540 --> 02:58:31,240
the middle of a donation segment like this.

5055
02:58:31,320 --> 02:58:33,420
It's actually for a damehood for his German

5056
02:58:33,420 --> 02:58:34,880
shepherd dog, Shona.

5057
02:58:34,880 --> 02:58:37,340
She was five years old when Katrina hit.

5058
02:58:37,780 --> 02:58:39,240
We had to evacuate with my parents, my

5059
02:58:39,240 --> 02:58:40,500
18-month-old son and wife.

5060
02:58:40,600 --> 02:58:43,520
Our house in Metairie was destroyed like so

5061
02:58:43,520 --> 02:58:44,000
many of them.

5062
02:58:44,220 --> 02:58:44,400
Metairie.

5063
02:58:44,400 --> 02:58:44,900
Metairie, thank you.

5064
02:58:45,400 --> 02:58:47,080
We evacuated to Charlotte, North Carolina.

5065
02:58:47,180 --> 02:58:48,420
Once a month, I would drive down to

5066
02:58:48,420 --> 02:58:49,900
New Orleans to help my parents and friends

5067
02:58:49,900 --> 02:58:50,360
to rebuild.

5068
02:58:50,480 --> 02:58:52,000
During this time, my wife and son were

5069
02:58:52,000 --> 02:58:54,340
alone in our little apartment in Shona, with

5070
02:58:54,340 --> 02:58:54,680
Shona.

5071
02:58:55,060 --> 02:58:56,820
She was the best protector they could have.

5072
02:58:57,440 --> 02:58:59,200
I would like to dedicate this damehood to

5073
02:58:59,200 --> 02:59:01,160
Shona, the protector of Katrina survivors.

5074
02:59:01,280 --> 02:59:02,880
Now she can join me, Sir Laugh-A

5075
02:59:02,880 --> 02:59:04,720
-Lot, and Dame Maggie, our rescue lab.

5076
02:59:04,720 --> 02:59:06,580
At the round table, I still have to

5077
02:59:06,580 --> 02:59:08,140
work on a damehood for my first dog,

5078
02:59:08,240 --> 02:59:09,860
Shelby, and my second dog, Trixie.

5079
02:59:10,220 --> 02:59:11,440
I hope to get that done before your

5080
02:59:11,440 --> 02:59:12,980
exit strategy comes to fruition.

5081
02:59:13,120 --> 02:59:15,240
I've been listening since the very first show.

5082
02:59:15,720 --> 02:59:17,300
I think John's first tip of the day

5083
02:59:17,300 --> 02:59:18,660
was to buy black underwear.

5084
02:59:19,280 --> 02:59:21,280
Back then, you were discussing the HEMA underwear.

5085
02:59:21,540 --> 02:59:23,480
Yes, but that was white.

5086
02:59:23,960 --> 02:59:25,220
I met John at one of the first

5087
02:59:25,220 --> 02:59:26,840
meetups in Bluxie, Mississippi.

5088
02:59:27,640 --> 02:59:28,780
A few years...

5089
02:59:28,780 --> 02:59:30,040
No, MS?

5090
02:59:30,160 --> 02:59:30,780
Yes, Mississippi.

5091
02:59:30,900 --> 02:59:31,580
A few years ago.

5092
02:59:31,900 --> 02:59:33,300
And someday, I hope to meet Adam in

5093
02:59:33,300 --> 02:59:33,920
person as well.

5094
02:59:33,920 --> 02:59:35,360
I apologize for the long note, but I

5095
02:59:35,360 --> 02:59:36,700
wanted to thank you for being a constant

5096
02:59:36,700 --> 02:59:38,840
in my life during some trying times and

5097
02:59:38,840 --> 02:59:40,720
providing much-needed laughs.

5098
02:59:41,120 --> 02:59:42,900
Sincerely, Sir Laugh-A-Lot.

5099
02:59:43,000 --> 02:59:44,240
It was worth reading the note.

5100
02:59:44,320 --> 02:59:45,140
Thank you very much.

5101
02:59:45,360 --> 02:59:46,360
Yeah, it was a good note.

5102
02:59:46,840 --> 02:59:49,740
Surprise in Yukon, Oklahoma, 5444.

5103
02:59:51,080 --> 02:59:54,520
Nathan Gwin in Jackson, Tennessee, 5272.

5104
02:59:54,700 --> 02:59:59,620
Vance Wharton in Norman, Oklahoma, 5272.

5105
02:59:59,620 --> 03:00:04,040
Malcolm Riley in Aiken, I think, Aiken or

5106
03:00:04,040 --> 03:00:04,620
Aiken, Aiken.

5107
03:00:05,120 --> 03:00:06,880
Aiken or Aiken, Aiken or Aiken.

5108
03:00:06,900 --> 03:00:07,460
Aiken, Aiken, Aiken.

5109
03:00:07,460 --> 03:00:08,060
South Carolina.

5110
03:00:08,380 --> 03:00:08,960
Aiken is Aiken.

5111
03:00:09,180 --> 03:00:11,220
71st birthday, 5272.

5112
03:00:12,460 --> 03:00:14,320
Matthew Arepko, 5001.

5113
03:00:14,560 --> 03:00:15,980
And now we've gotten down to the $50

5114
03:00:15,980 --> 03:00:16,920
donations.

5115
03:00:17,080 --> 03:00:18,080
I'm just going to read the name and

5116
03:00:18,080 --> 03:00:20,200
location, except for the Richard Gardner, who's in

5117
03:00:20,200 --> 03:00:22,860
New York City, but it's not listed.

5118
03:00:23,340 --> 03:00:27,040
George Wuschett in Laverna, Texas.

5119
03:00:28,480 --> 03:00:31,940
Jacqueline Connelly in Green Bay, Go Packers, Wisconsin.

5120
03:00:32,220 --> 03:00:35,560
Aaron Weisgerber in Bend, Oregon.

5121
03:00:36,200 --> 03:00:38,480
Benjamin Ryan in Alliance, Ohio.

5122
03:00:38,620 --> 03:00:39,560
There's Richard Gardner.

5123
03:00:40,280 --> 03:00:41,540
And I think he's in New York.

5124
03:00:42,680 --> 03:00:43,120
Knox.

5125
03:00:43,480 --> 03:00:45,460
It's Andrew, but you always say that.

5126
03:00:46,420 --> 03:00:46,700
What?

5127
03:00:46,900 --> 03:00:48,480
You always say Richard's in New York, but

5128
03:00:48,480 --> 03:00:50,040
that's Andrew Gardner in New York.

5129
03:00:50,420 --> 03:00:51,640
Oh, where's Richard?

5130
03:00:51,840 --> 03:00:52,380
I don't know.

5131
03:00:52,740 --> 03:00:54,040
Richard, tell us where you are.

5132
03:00:54,040 --> 03:00:56,340
Oh, it's Andrew Gardner that's in New York,

5133
03:00:56,400 --> 03:00:57,400
but I always say Richard is.

5134
03:00:57,520 --> 03:00:59,260
Well, maybe he likes thinking he's in New

5135
03:00:59,260 --> 03:00:59,360
York.

5136
03:00:59,600 --> 03:01:00,300
Don't you remember?

5137
03:01:00,460 --> 03:01:01,200
Don't you believe me?

5138
03:01:01,240 --> 03:01:05,560
Go bing it.io. See?

5139
03:01:05,860 --> 03:01:06,620
See, people?

5140
03:01:06,740 --> 03:01:07,880
That's what I have to deal with.

5141
03:01:09,420 --> 03:01:09,820
Ridicule.

5142
03:01:11,440 --> 03:01:12,240
Ox Utherix.

5143
03:01:12,500 --> 03:01:13,880
Wow, what a name.

5144
03:01:14,520 --> 03:01:15,280
It's a great name.

5145
03:01:15,340 --> 03:01:15,880
Ox Utherix.

5146
03:01:16,080 --> 03:01:18,140
Ox Utherix on the stick for you, everybody.

5147
03:01:18,280 --> 03:01:18,780
How you doing?

5148
03:01:19,100 --> 03:01:19,500
Z100.

5149
03:01:19,840 --> 03:01:20,820
Buffalo, New York.

5150
03:01:21,300 --> 03:01:23,240
Tricia in Satsuma, Florida.

5151
03:01:24,420 --> 03:01:29,000
Sir Michael in Snohomish, Washington.

5152
03:01:29,580 --> 03:01:31,900
And last on the list, our good buddy

5153
03:01:31,900 --> 03:01:33,160
Leanne Shipley.

5154
03:01:33,640 --> 03:01:35,860
And she's also in Washington, in Covington.

5155
03:01:35,960 --> 03:01:37,040
We want to thank these people for making

5156
03:01:37,040 --> 03:01:37,220
the show.

5157
03:01:38,020 --> 03:01:40,240
1794, a great show.

5158
03:01:40,420 --> 03:01:42,000
Yes, a very good show.

5159
03:01:42,080 --> 03:01:43,300
We've had some laughs as well.

5160
03:01:43,340 --> 03:01:45,200
And we appreciate the value that you return

5161
03:01:45,200 --> 03:01:46,780
for the value we serve up to you.

5162
03:01:46,840 --> 03:01:49,020
We do it as a public service, and

5163
03:01:49,020 --> 03:01:50,560
we're quite happy to do it.

5164
03:01:51,020 --> 03:01:52,580
It's an enjoyable lifestyle.

5165
03:01:52,580 --> 03:01:56,960
Somewhat rollercoastery, but it's an enjoyable lifestyle.

5166
03:01:58,140 --> 03:02:00,100
And as requested, we got the Karmas.

5167
03:02:00,340 --> 03:02:03,540
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

5168
03:02:03,720 --> 03:02:05,220
Let's vote for jobs.

5169
03:02:06,820 --> 03:02:09,060
And again, thank you to everyone who came

5170
03:02:09,060 --> 03:02:11,540
in under $50 for reasons of anonymity, or

5171
03:02:11,540 --> 03:02:13,560
perhaps you were one of those sustaining donors.

5172
03:02:13,720 --> 03:02:16,340
Everybody can at least give us something on

5173
03:02:16,340 --> 03:02:17,140
a regular basis.

5174
03:02:17,240 --> 03:02:18,420
You can set it up as a recurring

5175
03:02:18,420 --> 03:02:20,480
donation at noagendadonations.com.

5176
03:02:20,480 --> 03:02:22,900
And again, thanks to our Executive and Associate

5177
03:02:22,900 --> 03:02:27,100
Executive Producers for episode 1793.

5178
03:02:27,580 --> 03:02:29,500
It's your birthday, birthday.

5179
03:02:31,060 --> 03:02:32,860
I'm so glad you're back.

5180
03:02:32,980 --> 03:02:36,120
Sir Camera Chris wishes his oldest human resource,

5181
03:02:36,320 --> 03:02:37,500
Christian, a happy birthday.

5182

Also, Malcolm Reilly, happy birthday to his pops.

5184
03:02:42,480 --> 03:02:43,780
He turned 71 today.

5185
03:02:44,120 --> 03:02:46,400
And Malcolm Reilly, happy birthday to his baby

5186
03:02:46,400 --> 03:02:46,720
brother.

5187
03:02:46,800 --> 03:02:48,080
Turns 31 today.

5188
03:02:48,160 --> 03:02:48,760
How about that?

5189
03:02:48,760 --> 03:02:52,500
Hey, Andre Mackey turns 18 on the 29th.

5190
03:02:52,520 --> 03:02:54,140
How about I remember when he was born?

5191
03:02:55,340 --> 03:02:56,500
That's crazy.

5192
03:02:56,960 --> 03:02:59,680
Mandy Smith wishes her super-duper husband, Big

5193
03:02:59,680 --> 03:03:01,820

03:03:01,880 --> 03:03:04,400
Also added to the list, Augusto Andreoli.

Tomorrow, Sir Matthew, happy birthday to Sabrina Contreras

5196
03:03:09,000 --> 03:03:09,580
tomorrow.

5197
03:03:09,940 --> 03:03:12,500
And also happy birthday to Jared Bane and

5198

Happy birthday from everybody here at the best

5201
03:03:16,240 --> 03:03:17,680
podcast in the universe.

5202
03:03:19,200 --> 03:03:21,720
And now it's time, ladies and gentlemen, to

5203
03:03:21,720 --> 03:03:23,340
roll them all out.

5204
03:03:24,160 --> 03:03:28,440
All hail to the Secretary Generals, cause they

5205
03:03:28,440 --> 03:03:31,060
are the ones who need hailing.

5206
03:03:31,720 --> 03:03:35,980
All hail to the Secretary Generals on the

5207
03:03:35,980 --> 03:03:38,140
No Agenda Show.

5208
03:03:39,020 --> 03:03:39,940
Yeah, baby.

5209
03:03:40,060 --> 03:03:43,720
We congratulate Sir Paul, Secretary General of Alpenthal

5210
03:03:43,720 --> 03:03:45,100
at Snoqualmie.

03:03:46,120 --> 03:03:49,920

And Augusto Andreoli, Secretary General of Sao Polo.

5214
03:03:55,940 --> 03:03:58,840
These are your brand new Secretary Generals who

5215
03:03:58,840 --> 03:04:02,280
receive an official proclamation, which soon will be

5216
03:04:02,280 --> 03:04:04,520
available at noagendarings.com.

5217
03:04:04,640 --> 03:04:08,580
Please, all hail to the Secretary Generals of

5218
03:04:08,580 --> 03:04:09,760
the No Agenda Show.

5219
03:04:09,760 --> 03:04:13,540
They deserve your respect and to always be

5220
03:04:13,540 --> 03:04:18,040
addressed with the honorable Secretary General of wherever

5221
03:04:18,040 --> 03:04:19,200
they are from.

5222
03:04:24,000 --> 03:04:25,080
Come on, man.

5223
03:04:25,180 --> 03:04:26,040
How about that jingle?

5224
03:04:27,800 --> 03:04:29,000
Where'd that come from?

5225
03:04:29,260 --> 03:04:30,540
What do you mean, where'd it come from?

5226
03:04:30,540 --> 03:04:31,600
Our producers, of course.

5227
03:04:31,700 --> 03:04:32,520
We got the best producers.

5228
03:04:32,520 --> 03:04:33,460
That's a dynamite jingle.

5229
03:04:33,560 --> 03:04:34,500
That tops it.

5230
03:04:34,680 --> 03:04:36,460
We got the best producers in the universe,

5231
03:04:36,660 --> 03:04:36,820
man.

5232
03:04:36,920 --> 03:04:38,960
Well, that guy, whoever did that, you should

5233
03:04:38,960 --> 03:04:39,280
credit.

5234
03:04:40,080 --> 03:04:41,920
Well, that is a very good question.

5235
03:04:42,180 --> 03:04:42,420
Hold on.

5236
03:04:42,520 --> 03:04:42,980
I should.

5237
03:04:43,200 --> 03:04:43,780
Hold on a second.

5238
03:04:44,960 --> 03:04:46,440
Guy goes through all his work.

5239
03:04:46,820 --> 03:04:47,860
We take all the credit.

5240
03:04:48,120 --> 03:04:48,780
Thank you very much.

5241
03:04:48,900 --> 03:04:50,080
We appreciate what you did.

5242
03:04:50,280 --> 03:04:51,040
And now I...

5243
03:04:51,040 --> 03:04:51,420
Oh, here it is.

5244
03:04:51,500 --> 03:04:52,140
Jeff Woodward.

5245
03:04:52,280 --> 03:04:52,760
There we go.

5246
03:04:53,880 --> 03:04:54,600
Jeff Woodward.

5247
03:04:54,760 --> 03:04:57,440
Jeff Woodward is an awesome dude.

5248
03:04:58,520 --> 03:04:59,020
All right.

5249
03:04:59,040 --> 03:05:00,220
We have a dame and a couple of

5250
03:05:00,220 --> 03:05:00,320
knives.

5251
03:05:00,440 --> 03:05:01,320
That is very...

5252
03:05:01,320 --> 03:05:01,860
That is...

5253
03:05:01,860 --> 03:05:02,640
It's great.

5254
03:05:02,820 --> 03:05:03,400
Ten pointer.

5255
03:05:03,680 --> 03:05:04,920
That is as good as it gets.

5256
03:05:05,000 --> 03:05:05,400
That is.

5257
03:05:05,660 --> 03:05:06,000
All right.

5258
03:05:06,060 --> 03:05:06,560
Grab your blade.

5259
03:05:06,640 --> 03:05:07,820
We got some knightings and dames.

5260
03:05:07,820 --> 03:05:08,500
Yeah, I got one right here.

5261
03:05:08,500 --> 03:05:09,460
Hey!

5262
03:05:10,460 --> 03:05:13,180
Actually, the dame is Shona in a woof

5263
03:05:13,180 --> 03:05:13,480
-woof.

5264
03:05:13,880 --> 03:05:15,420
And Paul of Bellevue, Washington.

5265
03:05:15,700 --> 03:05:17,100
Commodore SX-64.

5266
03:05:17,520 --> 03:05:19,080
And Hank, hop up on the podium.

5267
03:05:19,280 --> 03:05:21,120
All of you supported the No Agenda Show

5268
03:05:21,120 --> 03:05:22,880
in the amount of $1,000 or more.

5269
03:05:23,000 --> 03:05:24,940
Therefore, I am very proud to pronounce the

5270
03:05:24,940 --> 03:05:28,660
KV as dame Shona, the protector of Katrina

5271
03:05:28,660 --> 03:05:29,380
survivors.

5272
03:05:29,740 --> 03:05:31,120
Sir Tall Paul.

5273
03:05:31,480 --> 03:05:33,320
Sir Commodore SX-64.

5274
03:05:33,720 --> 03:05:35,400
And Sir Hank Itami.

5275
03:05:35,400 --> 03:05:37,840
For you, we have hookers and blow, ring

5276
03:05:37,840 --> 03:05:38,980
poise and chardonnay.

5277
03:05:39,140 --> 03:05:41,740
Not to forget, mega-sized cup of grapefruit

5278
03:05:41,740 --> 03:05:43,620
sour along with a bowl of cookies and

5279
03:05:43,620 --> 03:05:44,440
cream ice cream.

5280
03:05:44,760 --> 03:05:46,780
We've got redheads and ryes.

5281
03:05:46,840 --> 03:05:49,860
We've got sparkling cider, escorts, ginger ale and

5282
03:05:49,860 --> 03:05:50,220
gerbils.

5283
03:05:50,360 --> 03:05:52,000
Of course, we always have the mutton and

5284
03:05:52,000 --> 03:05:52,940
the mead here for you.

5285
03:05:53,160 --> 03:05:56,020
All of you, including the dog, dame Shona.

5286
03:05:56,020 --> 03:05:57,940
Head over to NoAgendaRings.com.

5287
03:05:58,040 --> 03:06:00,480
Please let us know exactly what ring size

5288
03:06:00,480 --> 03:06:01,360
you are expecting.

5289
03:06:01,460 --> 03:06:02,420
We'll send it off to you.

5290
03:06:02,700 --> 03:06:03,600
It's a signet ring.

5291
03:06:03,600 --> 03:06:05,600
Throw in a couple of sticks of wax,

5292
03:06:05,680 --> 03:06:07,740
real sealing wax, so that you can seal

5293
03:06:07,740 --> 03:06:09,320
your important correspondence with it.

5294
03:06:09,400 --> 03:06:11,740
And as always, a certificate of authenticity from

5295
03:06:11,740 --> 03:06:14,300
your Uncle Boomers, Adam and John, here at

5296
03:06:14,300 --> 03:06:15,360
the No Agenda Show.

5297
03:06:15,460 --> 03:06:16,620
Welcome to the Roundtable.

5298
03:06:16,940 --> 03:06:20,340
No Agenda Meetups.

5299
03:06:21,880 --> 03:06:23,200
No Agenda Meetups.

5300
03:06:25,220 --> 03:06:26,340
Well, you heard it earlier.

5301
03:06:26,480 --> 03:06:27,380
Connection is protection.

5302
03:06:27,540 --> 03:06:29,260
You definitely get that at your No Agenda

5303
03:06:29,260 --> 03:06:29,660
Meetups.

5304
03:06:29,740 --> 03:06:31,920
You can find them all at NoAgendaMeetups.com.

5305
03:06:31,920 --> 03:06:33,760
On Saturday, the flight of the No Agenda

5306
03:06:33,760 --> 03:06:34,100
No.

5307
03:06:34,760 --> 03:06:35,240
66.

5308
03:06:35,700 --> 03:06:37,800
This is 3.33 p.m. in the

5309
03:06:37,800 --> 03:06:41,180
Sanctuary Zone at the HMS Bounty in Los

5310
03:06:41,180 --> 03:06:42,100
Angeles, California.

5311
03:06:42,200 --> 03:06:43,300
Leo Bravo hosting that.

5312
03:06:43,360 --> 03:06:46,560
He's one of the longest Meetup hosters in,

5313
03:06:46,600 --> 03:06:47,840
I think, No Agenda history.

5314
03:06:48,240 --> 03:06:50,200
Also on Saturday, the No Agenda Central Ohio

5315
03:06:50,200 --> 03:06:52,320
Meetup at 5.30 at Jackie O's in

5316
03:06:52,320 --> 03:06:53,020
Columbus, Ohio.

5317
03:06:53,360 --> 03:06:55,120
And on Sunday, our next show day, the

5318
03:06:55,120 --> 03:06:57,780
annual South Jersey Pig Roast Meetup, 5 o

5319
03:06:57,780 --> 03:06:57,980
'clock.

5320
03:06:57,980 --> 03:07:00,960
That will be at Dam Wend's house in

5321
03:07:00,960 --> 03:07:02,240
Medford Lakes, New Jersey.

5322
03:07:02,400 --> 03:07:04,580
So you do have to RSVP because it's

5323
03:07:04,580 --> 03:07:05,420
somebody's home.

5324
03:07:06,440 --> 03:07:07,100
Dam, Dam Wend.

5325
03:07:07,460 --> 03:07:07,960
Dam Wend.

5326
03:07:08,140 --> 03:07:09,000
Maybe it's Dame.

5327
03:07:09,480 --> 03:07:12,800
I would have to say Dame Wend's house.

5328
03:07:13,120 --> 03:07:13,220
Yes.

5329
03:07:13,580 --> 03:07:14,580
You know, Jay is slipping.

5330
03:07:15,020 --> 03:07:16,340
She missed two birthdays.

5331
03:07:16,740 --> 03:07:17,560
They got spelling.

5332
03:07:18,020 --> 03:07:19,680
Is this because Brennan lost his job?

5333
03:07:19,740 --> 03:07:21,460
She's all freaked out or what's going on?

5334
03:07:22,380 --> 03:07:23,860
I register a complaint.

5335
03:07:24,720 --> 03:07:26,520
I will pass it along.

5336
03:07:26,840 --> 03:07:27,680
Please do.

5337
03:07:28,500 --> 03:07:29,480
She's so sweet.

5338
03:07:29,560 --> 03:07:30,220
She's so good.

5339
03:07:30,340 --> 03:07:31,280
But we got to be strict.

5340
03:07:31,460 --> 03:07:32,420
Spanking is back in.

5341
03:07:33,540 --> 03:07:34,760
Coming up in September.

5342
03:07:34,940 --> 03:07:35,600
Madison, Alabama.

5343
03:07:35,740 --> 03:07:36,320
Houston, Texas.

5344
03:07:36,500 --> 03:07:37,680
Hof Dorp in the Netherlands.

5345
03:07:37,880 --> 03:07:38,800
South Slocan.

5346
03:07:39,000 --> 03:07:39,640
British Columbia.

5347
03:07:39,860 --> 03:07:40,620
Keyport, New Jersey.

5348
03:07:40,720 --> 03:07:41,520
Oakland, California.

5349
03:07:41,780 --> 03:07:42,580
Tilburg, the Netherlands.

5350
03:07:42,740 --> 03:07:45,880
And remember, October 11th, the big Fredericksburg, Texas

5351
03:07:45,880 --> 03:07:46,260
Meetup.

5352
03:07:46,320 --> 03:07:47,660
We're looking forward to seeing all of you

5353
03:07:47,660 --> 03:07:47,900
there.

5354
03:07:48,340 --> 03:07:51,160
Find the No Agenda Meetups at thenoagendameetups.com.

5355
03:07:51,260 --> 03:07:53,120
Calendar if you can't find one near you.

5356
03:07:53,160 --> 03:07:54,100
Start one yourself.

5357
03:07:54,200 --> 03:07:55,540
Easy and always a party.

5358
03:08:13,640 --> 03:08:15,800
Yeah, baby.

5359
03:08:16,280 --> 03:08:17,620
Big, big, big party.

5360
03:08:17,960 --> 03:08:19,660
Remember, send me those Meetup reports.

5361
03:08:19,800 --> 03:08:21,100
We don't get them often enough.

5362
03:08:21,540 --> 03:08:23,860
Seems like you only have one ISO here.

5363
03:08:24,240 --> 03:08:25,440
I have one ISO.

5364
03:08:25,780 --> 03:08:26,840
You want to keep that for the end?

5365
03:08:26,880 --> 03:08:27,340
I got three.

5366
03:08:27,340 --> 03:08:28,280
You want to keep it for the end?

5367
03:08:28,440 --> 03:08:29,480
Yeah, I'll give you three.

5368
03:08:29,800 --> 03:08:30,080
Okay.

5369
03:08:30,220 --> 03:08:31,800
They're just Durga Durga Mohammed Jihad.

5370
03:08:32,000 --> 03:08:32,840
Durga Durga Durga Durga.

5371
03:08:35,260 --> 03:08:36,040
I'm sorry.

5372
03:08:36,640 --> 03:08:37,420
Here's another one.

5373
03:08:37,520 --> 03:08:38,600
Good job, guys.

5374
03:08:39,440 --> 03:08:40,320
It's not too bad.

5375
03:08:40,380 --> 03:08:40,940
Nice and clear.

5376
03:08:41,040 --> 03:08:41,620
Or this one.

5377
03:08:41,680 --> 03:08:42,980
Where the hell are these guys getting all

5378
03:08:42,980 --> 03:08:43,300
of this?

5379
03:08:44,540 --> 03:08:46,800
Those are my three entrants for end of

5380
03:08:46,800 --> 03:08:47,320
show ISO.

5381
03:08:48,220 --> 03:08:50,100
Well, those are all three good ones, actually.

5382
03:08:50,360 --> 03:08:50,760
Thank you.

5383
03:08:50,860 --> 03:08:51,880
Especially the one.

5384
03:08:52,140 --> 03:08:53,240
Let's play that first one again.

5385
03:08:53,420 --> 03:08:55,000
They're just Durga Durga Mohammed Jihad.

5386
03:08:55,180 --> 03:08:56,020
Durga Durga Durga Durga.

5387
03:08:57,940 --> 03:08:59,540
Got nothing to do with anything.

5388
03:08:59,680 --> 03:09:01,080
No, that's why I like it so much.

5389
03:09:01,320 --> 03:09:02,240
That's really good, though.

5390
03:09:02,380 --> 03:09:02,560
Yeah.

5391
03:09:02,660 --> 03:09:04,360
I just have a clip from a Hank

5392
03:09:04,360 --> 03:09:06,540
Harrison New King of the Hill show.

5393
03:09:06,720 --> 03:09:07,500
Oh, here we go.

5394
03:09:07,560 --> 03:09:08,500
I don't believe this.

5395
03:09:08,580 --> 03:09:10,300
They're lying on the news.

5396
03:09:10,740 --> 03:09:11,100
Okay.

5397
03:09:11,360 --> 03:09:12,400
I like that one.

5398
03:09:12,500 --> 03:09:13,280
I think you win.

5399
03:09:13,420 --> 03:09:13,940
You knew it.

5400
03:09:14,020 --> 03:09:15,080
That's why you only had one.

5401
03:09:15,160 --> 03:09:16,920
He's like, it's a shoo-in and it's

5402
03:09:16,920 --> 03:09:17,780
not even AI.

5403
03:09:18,020 --> 03:09:18,920
That is it, everybody.

5404
03:09:19,060 --> 03:09:21,020
Are you standing by for John's tip of

5405
03:09:21,020 --> 03:09:21,320
the day?

5406
03:09:21,360 --> 03:09:22,560
He's ready to roll for you.

5407
03:09:28,040 --> 03:09:31,260
With JCD and sometimes Adam.

5408
03:09:33,780 --> 03:09:34,220
Okay.

5409
03:09:34,980 --> 03:09:37,440
So this is a screwball tip because I

5410
03:09:37,440 --> 03:09:40,380
came across it because I'm reading somebody's substack

5411
03:09:40,380 --> 03:09:42,500
column and they sell this stuff.

5412
03:09:42,660 --> 03:09:44,100
And I said, this is interesting.

5413
03:09:44,240 --> 03:09:45,220
So I looked into it.

5414
03:09:45,520 --> 03:09:47,460
And then I got irked by the fact

5415
03:09:47,460 --> 03:09:49,040
that they're selling this stuff at like three

5416
03:09:49,040 --> 03:09:50,940
times what you can buy it for any

5417
03:09:50,940 --> 03:09:52,080
place in the world.

5418
03:09:52,960 --> 03:09:54,180
And so I got a little annoyed.

5419
03:09:54,300 --> 03:09:55,580
But I looked at this as a product.

5420
03:09:56,060 --> 03:10:00,700
This is a sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar,

5421
03:10:00,700 --> 03:10:06,040
sugar, sugar, sugar substitute.

5422
03:10:08,420 --> 03:10:10,400
That is looks to be safe.

5423
03:10:11,640 --> 03:10:12,520
Not toxic.

5424
03:10:14,420 --> 03:10:16,300
And people should look this up, do your

5425
03:10:16,300 --> 03:10:17,760
own research, but look this stuff up.

5426
03:10:17,800 --> 03:10:18,440
You can buy it.

5427
03:10:18,640 --> 03:10:21,140
Everybody makes it because there's about three or

5428
03:10:21,140 --> 03:10:23,260
four factories here and there that produce it.

5429
03:10:23,600 --> 03:10:27,520
It's produced from, there's a natural occurring substance

5430
03:10:27,520 --> 03:10:30,100
that you can also extract from fructose.

5431
03:10:30,260 --> 03:10:32,640
So it's a factory made product the way

5432
03:10:32,640 --> 03:10:33,340
I see it.

5433
03:10:33,580 --> 03:10:37,900
And it's called allulose, A-L-L-O,

5434
03:10:38,280 --> 03:10:43,560
I'm sorry, A-L-L-U-L-O

5435
03:10:43,560 --> 03:10:46,680
-S-E, A-L-L-U-L-O

5436
03:10:46,680 --> 03:10:47,340
-S-E.

5437
03:10:49,640 --> 03:10:53,260
And I'll read from the Google here.

5438
03:10:53,320 --> 03:10:57,000
It's a rare natural sugar found in small

5439
03:10:57,000 --> 03:10:59,740
quantities in certain fruits, like figs, for example,

5440
03:10:59,820 --> 03:11:03,080
have this stuff and raisins for some reason.

5441
03:11:03,700 --> 03:11:06,060
It offers the sweetness of fructose, yet is

5442
03:11:06,060 --> 03:11:07,940
metabolically distinct.

5443
03:11:09,560 --> 03:11:13,160
It does not affect glucose or insulin levels

5444
03:11:13,160 --> 03:11:15,200
in any way, shape or form.

5445
03:11:15,790 --> 03:11:18,460
And so it's neutral on the body and

5446
03:11:18,460 --> 03:11:20,080
has no calories, basically.

5447
03:11:20,240 --> 03:11:22,320
It's got really like a point something calories.

5448
03:11:22,960 --> 03:11:25,320
And it tastes just like sugar, exactly the

5449
03:11:25,320 --> 03:11:25,680
same.

5450
03:11:26,120 --> 03:11:28,280
But this is not a chemical?

5451
03:11:28,500 --> 03:11:29,500
It's some kind of extract?

5452
03:11:30,660 --> 03:11:36,600
It's actually, it's the C3 epimer of fructose.

5453
03:11:37,660 --> 03:11:43,120
So it's a chemical like sucrose, they're all

5454
03:11:43,120 --> 03:11:44,880
chemicals at the end of the day.

5455
03:11:44,880 --> 03:11:46,280
You go ahead and you eat that.

5456
03:11:46,360 --> 03:11:47,300
I'll just have sugar.

5457
03:11:48,040 --> 03:11:50,540
Yeah, you can have your sugar, which is

5458
03:11:50,540 --> 03:11:53,360
a chemical, by the way, if you haven't

5459
03:11:53,360 --> 03:11:53,580
noticed.

5460
03:11:53,820 --> 03:11:54,320
Sugar is a chemical?

5461
03:11:55,180 --> 03:11:56,200
Yeah, of course it is.

5462
03:11:56,360 --> 03:11:56,920
It's sucrose.

5463
03:11:57,560 --> 03:11:59,380
Well, how about cane sugar?

5464
03:12:00,780 --> 03:12:04,340
It's derived, it's extracted at a refinery.

5465
03:12:04,520 --> 03:12:06,780
How about if I just stick a sugar

5466
03:12:06,780 --> 03:12:09,020
cane into something I want sweetened?

5467
03:12:09,080 --> 03:12:09,360
Is that okay?

5468
03:12:09,360 --> 03:12:10,220
That would be fine.

5469
03:12:10,520 --> 03:12:12,240
Or you could do what I like to

5470
03:12:12,240 --> 03:12:14,640
do, which is use maple syrup.

5471
03:12:14,640 --> 03:12:17,420
I love doing that for everything.

5472
03:12:17,600 --> 03:12:18,420
Do you know what I do with my

5473
03:12:18,420 --> 03:12:18,980
maple syrup?

5474
03:12:19,920 --> 03:12:23,500
When I make salmon, and we get salmon

5475
03:12:23,500 --> 03:12:26,300
special from somebody who's actually getting it from

5476
03:12:26,300 --> 03:12:28,260
somewhere that's not from some farm.

5477
03:12:28,520 --> 03:12:30,100
So we have it only once a month,

5478
03:12:30,180 --> 03:12:30,440
maybe.

5479
03:12:31,080 --> 03:12:33,580
So I will drizzle a little bit of

5480
03:12:33,580 --> 03:12:36,380
maple syrup on the top, and then I

5481
03:12:36,380 --> 03:12:38,580
will put on lemon pepper.

5482
03:12:39,020 --> 03:12:41,660
And then I do 12 minutes at 390

5483
03:12:41,660 --> 03:12:42,280
in the oven.

5484
03:12:42,280 --> 03:12:44,780
And then five, because it's big pieces, five

5485
03:12:44,780 --> 03:12:46,720
minutes under the broiler 500.

5486
03:12:47,060 --> 03:12:47,800
Oh, man.

5487
03:12:48,060 --> 03:12:50,660
And then that maple syrup, it just comes

5488
03:12:50,660 --> 03:12:51,160
to life.

5489
03:12:51,760 --> 03:12:54,180
And that's your recipe for overcooked salmon.

5490
03:12:55,000 --> 03:12:58,820
Now, going back to this tip of the

5491
03:12:58,820 --> 03:13:02,480
day, this is a, you do not pay

5492
03:13:02,480 --> 03:13:02,720
more.

5493
03:13:02,860 --> 03:13:04,160
This is not a cheap product.

5494
03:13:04,200 --> 03:13:05,680
That's why you don't see it in Diet

5495
03:13:05,680 --> 03:13:06,500
Coke or anything.

5496
03:13:06,900 --> 03:13:08,580
So it's about $10 a pound.

5497
03:13:09,020 --> 03:13:11,600
Do not pay more than $10 a pound.

5498
03:13:11,600 --> 03:13:12,560
You should be able to get it even

5499
03:13:12,560 --> 03:13:13,780
cheaper if you buy it in bulk.

5500
03:13:14,320 --> 03:13:16,080
Do not pay over $10 a pound, which

5501
03:13:16,080 --> 03:13:17,980
you're just getting ripped off if that's the

5502
03:13:17,980 --> 03:13:18,160
case.

5503
03:13:18,260 --> 03:13:20,200
But it's called Elulose.

5504
03:13:20,300 --> 03:13:21,480
That's the tip of the day as a

5505
03:13:21,480 --> 03:13:22,220
sugar substitute.

5506
03:13:22,220 --> 03:13:24,840
That is actually probably a good product.

5507
03:13:25,400 --> 03:13:26,360
There you go, everybody.

5508
03:13:26,460 --> 03:13:27,520
This is John's tip of the day.

5509
03:13:27,640 --> 03:13:30,060
Find them all at tipoftheday.net.

5510
03:13:45,800 --> 03:13:49,040
And that concludes our broadcast day with that

5511
03:13:49,040 --> 03:13:50,680
fine tip of the day from John.

5512
03:13:51,360 --> 03:13:53,380
And my tip for overcooked salmon.

5513
03:13:53,560 --> 03:13:54,220
I don't think so.

5514
03:13:54,260 --> 03:13:55,100
These are big pieces.

5515
03:13:55,280 --> 03:13:56,660
I do not overcook my salmon.

5516
03:13:56,740 --> 03:13:58,580
Well, they're big giant, I guess.

5517
03:13:58,600 --> 03:13:59,880
They're big giant pieces.

5518
03:14:00,120 --> 03:14:01,180
Big giant, giant.

5519
03:14:01,240 --> 03:14:02,480
We don't miss Texas, man.

5520
03:14:02,540 --> 03:14:03,340
We don't mess around.

5521
03:14:04,080 --> 03:14:08,420
Hey, stay tuned to noagendastream.com because, you

5522
03:14:08,420 --> 03:14:12,720
know, John doesn't like trollroom.io. For the

5523
03:14:12,720 --> 03:14:15,260
DH Unplugged podcast, I have not heard this

5524
03:14:15,260 --> 03:14:15,720
episode.

5525
03:14:15,860 --> 03:14:17,360
It's titled, Jackson Holy.

5526
03:14:18,480 --> 03:14:22,200
Well, that promises to be interesting.

5527
03:14:22,880 --> 03:14:24,200
And we shall be listening for that.

5528
03:14:25,320 --> 03:14:28,260
Also, end of show mix is classic from

5529
03:14:28,260 --> 03:14:30,500
a friend who we haven't heard from in

5530
03:14:30,500 --> 03:14:33,340
a long time, Sir Chris from Down Under.

5531
03:14:33,920 --> 03:14:36,900
And brand new from Sir Joe Joho.

5532
03:14:37,000 --> 03:14:40,520
Sir Joho singing about the British flag protest.

5533
03:14:40,520 --> 03:14:42,200
Coming to you from the heart of the

5534
03:14:42,200 --> 03:14:45,920
Texas hill country, right here in Fredericksburg, Texas.

5535
03:14:46,640 --> 03:14:47,580
In the morning, everybody.

5536
03:14:47,800 --> 03:14:48,480
I'm Adam Curry.

5537
03:14:48,700 --> 03:14:50,960
And from northern Silicon Valley, where we advocate

5538
03:14:50,960 --> 03:14:53,420
for bingit.io. I'm John C.

5539
03:14:53,500 --> 03:14:53,820
Dvorak.

5540
03:14:53,900 --> 03:14:55,080
We return on Sunday.

5541
03:14:55,260 --> 03:14:57,880
Please join us then for more media deconstruction.

5542
03:14:58,020 --> 03:15:00,860
And remember us at noagendadonations.com.

5543
03:15:00,920 --> 03:15:04,680
Until then, adios, mofos, hui hui, and such.

5544
03:15:09,560 --> 03:15:13,880
Well, I've watched TV with Danny LaRue, who

5545
03:15:13,880 --> 03:15:15,780
dressed for his own pleasure.

5546
03:15:16,480 --> 03:15:20,580
And we all saw Decathlon Bruce become Miss

5547
03:15:20,580 --> 03:15:22,000
Caitlyn Jenner.

5548
03:15:22,480 --> 03:15:25,920
I've never been to a White House ball

5549
03:15:25,920 --> 03:15:28,920
sponsored by Big Pharma.

5550
03:15:29,310 --> 03:15:33,660
Or invited to a party that was hosted

5551
03:15:33,660 --> 03:15:35,720
by Michelle Obama.

5552
03:15:36,980 --> 03:15:40,970
Social justice moves too fast for me.

5553
03:15:45,450 --> 03:15:48,860
Homophobia is the place to be.

5554
03:15:51,410 --> 03:15:56,030
What is a woman's now up for debate?

5555
03:15:56,030 --> 03:16:01,430
They say they're not gay, they're definitely not

5556
03:16:01,430 --> 03:16:02,190
straight.

5557
03:16:03,070 --> 03:16:07,470
Use the right pronouns, or you'll feel the

5558
03:16:07,470 --> 03:16:08,470
hate.

5559
03:16:09,330 --> 03:16:13,250
That's why the lady is a trance.

5560
03:16:15,390 --> 03:16:20,450
Male pattern baldness is under those coats.

5561
03:16:21,410 --> 03:16:25,510
Looks like a drag queen in ermine and

5562
03:16:25,510 --> 03:16:26,430
pearls.

5563
03:16:27,710 --> 03:16:31,130
Can't quite fit in with the rest of

5564
03:16:31,130 --> 03:16:32,350
the girls.

5565
03:16:33,190 --> 03:16:36,810
That's why the lady is a trance.

5566
03:16:38,110 --> 03:16:44,150
She's got that excess bodily hair.

5567
03:16:44,870 --> 03:16:47,070
Something down there.

5568
03:16:47,070 --> 03:16:54,430
To choke a bloke from California with a

5569
03:16:54,430 --> 03:16:55,340
fake neoclan.

5570
03:16:57,010 --> 03:17:01,110
That's why the lady is a trance.

5571
03:17:06,390 --> 03:17:12,650
Wave it high, wave valence, what's inside?

5572
03:17:20,890 --> 03:17:25,710
Don't wanna see slags of pride and unity.

5573
03:17:25,710 --> 03:17:30,550
Commies frown and rulers glare, but we still

5574
03:17:30,550 --> 03:17:32,710
raise them in the air.

5575
03:17:33,170 --> 03:17:36,370
Pushed and bullied, still we stand.

5576
03:18:09,480 --> 03:18:12,080
We're still Rossi.

5577
03:19:40,470 --> 03:19:43,750
The best podcast in the universe.

5578
03:19:44,390 --> 03:19:45,670
Adios, mofo.

5579
03:19:45,790 --> 03:19:49,170
Dvorak.org slash NA.

5580
03:19:49,650 --> 03:19:52,250
I don't believe this, they're lying on the

5581
03:19:52,250 --> 03:19:52,690
news.
