1
00:00:00,140 --> 00:00:02,680
I should mention, dogs do not dance.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:04,660
Adam Curry, John C.

3
00:00:04,820 --> 00:00:05,180
Devorah.

4
00:00:05,220 --> 00:00:07,620
It's Sunday, January 25th, 2026.

5
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:09,600
This is your award-winning People Nation Media

6
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:11,660
Assassination episode 1837.

7
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:13,480
This is no agenda.

8
00:00:15,239 --> 00:00:16,440
Hunker Down!

9
00:00:16,580 --> 00:00:18,920
And broadcasting live from the heart of the

10
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,220
Texas hill country, here in FEMA Region No.

11
00:00:21,300 --> 00:00:21,620
6.

12
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:22,720
Good morning, everybody.

13
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:23,900
I'm Adam Curry.

14
00:00:23,900 --> 00:00:27,060
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we can

15
00:00:27,060 --> 00:00:29,320
tell that the weather's hurting the show.

16
00:00:29,540 --> 00:00:30,340
I'm John C.

17
00:00:30,460 --> 00:00:30,820
Devorah.

18
00:00:31,140 --> 00:00:33,020
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.

19
00:00:33,140 --> 00:00:34,200
In the morning.

20
00:00:34,860 --> 00:00:37,160
Yes, people couldn't get outside to mail a

21
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:37,440
check.

22
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:39,360
It's horrible, I tell you.

23
00:00:39,460 --> 00:00:40,040
It's horrible.

24
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:43,760
Ah, it doesn't matter.

25
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,780
Hey, it wasn't as bad, and it is

26
00:00:48,780 --> 00:00:49,180
bad.

27
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,420
Well, okay, well, yes, okay.

28
00:00:52,580 --> 00:00:55,320
We should explain to people outside the country.

29
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,080
Yeah, well, I think this is international news.

30
00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:01,100
Yeah, we have a big storm in the

31
00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:01,860
middle of the country.

32
00:01:02,420 --> 00:01:02,880
Yeah.

33
00:01:03,819 --> 00:01:05,660
Here, it's kind of chilly.

34
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:06,480
Here, it's 60.

35
00:01:06,740 --> 00:01:09,080
Oh, shiver me timbers.

36
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:12,380
Yeah.

37
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,560
So, it is, I think it's about 25

38
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:17,420
right now.

39
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:19,180
It's cold.

40
00:01:19,380 --> 00:01:22,180
Yeah, for us, well, yeah, I think it

41
00:01:22,180 --> 00:01:25,880
was 14 or 16 last night.

42
00:01:26,260 --> 00:01:26,880
Too cold.

43
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,520
Yeah, but last night is when we got

44
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:34,900
freezing rain mixed with snow, and so it's

45
00:01:34,900 --> 00:01:35,560
just packed.

46
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,760
It's just packed on top of everything, so

47
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:38,420
we can't drive.

48
00:01:38,500 --> 00:01:39,980
We can't even get down our driveway.

49
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,360
We could slide down the driveway, but we

50
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:43,920
can't drive.

51
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:45,680
So, you're stuck there.

52
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,800
Yeah, kind of stuck, but we're ready for

53
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:47,920
it.

54
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,620
So, without rating the supermarkets, how much food,

55
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,860
because everyone rated the supermarkets.

56
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:56,020
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah.

57
00:01:56,900 --> 00:01:59,080
How much food do you think the average

58
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,540
person has in their house already that they

59
00:02:03,540 --> 00:02:04,620
could hold out with?

60
00:02:04,780 --> 00:02:07,220
You mean actual food or peanut butter?

61
00:02:07,220 --> 00:02:08,120
Yeah, food in the house.

62
00:02:08,180 --> 00:02:10,039
Or peanut butter, what counts as food?

63
00:02:10,220 --> 00:02:11,600
I count that.

64
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,660
Oh, I think if people really looked at

65
00:02:14,660 --> 00:02:16,960
what they have, they probably have enough for

66
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:17,560
two weeks.

67
00:02:18,580 --> 00:02:19,600
That's what I'm thinking.

68
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,600
Yeah, we were thinking about it.

69
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:22,260
If you have a big freezer, you can

70
00:02:22,260 --> 00:02:23,000
probably go longer.

71
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,680
Oh, no, we could go two months if

72
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,960
we're just doing stuff from the freezer because

73
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,060
we do the big, you know, we get

74
00:02:29,060 --> 00:02:31,780
the big shipment from K&C Cattle.

75
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,360
But even at a certain point, we could

76
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,100
eat the dog's food because she has that

77
00:02:37,100 --> 00:02:38,180
farmer's dog stuff.

78
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,040
I'd eat that, and then we just eat

79
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:40,500
the dog.

80
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:41,620
So I think we could go for a

81
00:02:41,620 --> 00:02:42,240
couple of months.

82
00:02:43,340 --> 00:02:45,280
Dog's looking at me right now like, what

83
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,260
did you just say?

84
00:02:46,780 --> 00:02:46,980
What?

85
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,100
What did you just say?

86
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:49,760
No.

87
00:02:52,700 --> 00:02:53,180
Yeah.

88
00:02:53,660 --> 00:02:56,280
And funny enough, lots of power went out

89
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,340
in Fredericksburg, but not at our place.

90
00:02:58,700 --> 00:03:01,640
Once again, the generator is not used.

91
00:03:02,180 --> 00:03:03,940
That's the reason you buy it.

92
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,000
The minute you get it, it never flips

93
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:08,260
on.

94
00:03:08,260 --> 00:03:10,500
It's just not necessary.

95
00:03:10,860 --> 00:03:11,600
It's amazing.

96
00:03:11,860 --> 00:03:12,840
It really is amazing.

97
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:16,200
But yeah, and it's weird.

98
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,820
Like, my buddy Dave in Alabama, it's 50

99
00:03:20,820 --> 00:03:21,200
degrees.

100
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,580
It's like this thing went right around Alabama.

101
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:24,740
It's the weirdest thing.

102
00:03:28,090 --> 00:03:29,430
Yeah, it went kind of, it's a funny

103
00:03:29,430 --> 00:03:30,110
pattern.

104
00:03:30,750 --> 00:03:31,890
It's very strange.

105
00:03:32,250 --> 00:03:33,270
What I haven't heard, though.

106
00:03:33,430 --> 00:03:34,190
Global warming.

107
00:03:35,530 --> 00:03:35,970
Proof.

108
00:03:36,270 --> 00:03:37,590
I haven't heard that for sure.

109
00:03:38,450 --> 00:03:41,510
But I haven't heard the extreme weather event.

110
00:03:42,110 --> 00:03:44,130
That's typically what they roll out.

111
00:03:44,230 --> 00:03:46,610
I think it's diminishing.

112
00:03:47,490 --> 00:03:48,330
The whole, in fact.

113
00:03:49,350 --> 00:03:51,650
I think they're realizing that people are getting

114
00:03:51,650 --> 00:03:52,990
sick of hearing it.

115
00:03:53,810 --> 00:03:54,090
Yeah.

116
00:03:55,970 --> 00:03:58,390
I think I had a clip about this

117
00:03:58,390 --> 00:03:58,670
somewhere.

118
00:03:59,290 --> 00:03:59,990
I thought I had.

119
00:04:02,490 --> 00:04:04,010
While you're looking for that, I do have

120
00:04:04,010 --> 00:04:05,590
the weather report from NPR.

121
00:04:05,590 --> 00:04:07,230
You can play that.

122
00:04:07,590 --> 00:04:08,530
Let's see.

123
00:04:08,770 --> 00:04:09,810
Weather report.

124
00:04:10,150 --> 00:04:10,730
Storm update.

125
00:04:10,910 --> 00:04:11,570
Oh, storm.

126
00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:13,050
Storm update.

127
00:04:13,250 --> 00:04:15,769
A massive winter storm is sweeping through a

128
00:04:15,769 --> 00:04:17,470
huge swath of the country.

129
00:04:17,829 --> 00:04:20,149
From the southwest, heading to the mid-Atlantic,

130
00:04:20,290 --> 00:04:22,170
and then up through the northeast this weekend.

131
00:04:22,510 --> 00:04:24,970
With heavy snow and ice possible.

132
00:04:25,490 --> 00:04:27,330
Freezing rain and sleet is also expected in

133
00:04:27,330 --> 00:04:27,990
many states.

134
00:04:28,310 --> 00:04:30,570
That could bring down trees onto power lines,

135
00:04:30,650 --> 00:04:32,670
leading to widespread power outages.

136
00:04:32,670 --> 00:04:35,490
Already thousands are without power in the southwest.

137
00:04:36,010 --> 00:04:39,110
National Weather Service meteorologist Josh Weiss.

138
00:04:39,370 --> 00:04:41,650
So if people lose power, people can't get

139
00:04:41,650 --> 00:04:42,930
out of their homes because snow and ice

140
00:04:42,930 --> 00:04:43,830
is covering the roadways.

141
00:04:44,110 --> 00:04:47,130
They could be stuck for several days without

142
00:04:47,130 --> 00:04:48,690
the ability to get warm.

143
00:04:48,910 --> 00:04:49,990
And it's going to be so cold.

144
00:04:50,050 --> 00:04:52,150
We've got sub-zero wind chills that may

145
00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:54,710
reach as far south as Dallas, Memphis, and

146
00:04:54,710 --> 00:04:55,670
Raleigh, North Carolina.

147
00:04:55,950 --> 00:04:57,190
And all points north of there.

148
00:04:57,510 --> 00:05:00,090
So people are trapped due to heavy snowfall

149
00:05:00,090 --> 00:05:01,390
and damaging freezing rain.

150
00:05:01,390 --> 00:05:03,410
This cold is going to linger all of

151
00:05:03,410 --> 00:05:06,050
next week, making a dangerous situation truly life

152
00:05:06,050 --> 00:05:06,410
-threatening.

153
00:05:06,810 --> 00:05:09,290
Thousands of flights have been canceled or delayed

154
00:05:09,290 --> 00:05:10,170
because of the storm.

155
00:05:11,090 --> 00:05:12,210
Mimi texted me.

156
00:05:12,350 --> 00:05:14,230
She texts me about three times a year.

157
00:05:15,150 --> 00:05:17,570
Usually one is, OK, time to do taxes.

158
00:05:18,490 --> 00:05:21,150
And then this is the first time this

159
00:05:21,150 --> 00:05:21,350
year.

160
00:05:21,450 --> 00:05:23,470
She's like, oh, Max Velocity says it's going

161
00:05:23,470 --> 00:05:24,110
to be bad.

162
00:05:25,550 --> 00:05:26,670
She loves Max.

163
00:05:26,930 --> 00:05:27,870
Yeah, she called me last.

164
00:05:28,230 --> 00:05:29,930
She says, oh, you think he's going to

165
00:05:29,930 --> 00:05:30,470
be OK?

166
00:05:31,670 --> 00:05:34,370
I appreciate her concern.

167
00:05:35,450 --> 00:05:38,150
She doesn't text me like, are you going

168
00:05:38,150 --> 00:05:38,630
to be OK?

169
00:05:38,750 --> 00:05:40,830
Just said, Max Velocity says you're going to

170
00:05:40,830 --> 00:05:41,330
die.

171
00:05:41,570 --> 00:05:42,170
Here it comes.

172
00:05:44,430 --> 00:05:45,390
Max Velocity.

173
00:05:45,670 --> 00:05:46,690
He's fun to watch.

174
00:05:46,890 --> 00:05:49,510
Because I'm always saying, I've watched him a

175
00:05:49,510 --> 00:05:49,890
couple of times.

176
00:05:49,990 --> 00:05:52,470
But he's a little too intense for my

177
00:05:52,470 --> 00:05:52,950
taste.

178
00:05:53,070 --> 00:05:53,450
A little?

179
00:05:54,450 --> 00:05:54,930
OK.

180
00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:57,390
He's way too intense for my taste.

181
00:05:57,390 --> 00:06:01,630
And Mimi's just in love with this guy.

182
00:06:01,910 --> 00:06:04,490
And she thinks his reports are so dynamite.

183
00:06:04,550 --> 00:06:06,210
But they have nothing to do with anything

184
00:06:06,210 --> 00:06:07,030
she's doing.

185
00:06:09,150 --> 00:06:11,450
He's covering the Midwest mostly.

186
00:06:11,770 --> 00:06:13,010
She's just a weather junkie.

187
00:06:13,030 --> 00:06:13,130
So who cares?

188
00:06:13,130 --> 00:06:14,210
She's a weather junkie.

189
00:06:14,330 --> 00:06:15,790
I mean, I know people like this.

190
00:06:16,190 --> 00:06:17,690
She's a weather junkie.

191
00:06:17,750 --> 00:06:19,310
There are people who just, you know, there's

192
00:06:19,310 --> 00:06:22,310
a, on the YouTube TV, there's a quad

193
00:06:22,310 --> 00:06:22,770
squeen.

194
00:06:23,550 --> 00:06:24,930
I keep saying squeen.

195
00:06:24,930 --> 00:06:25,090
It's a squeen.

196
00:06:25,090 --> 00:06:25,610
Stop me.

197
00:06:27,950 --> 00:06:29,050
I like the squeen.

198
00:06:29,230 --> 00:06:30,510
I like the quad squeen.

199
00:06:30,630 --> 00:06:31,610
That's what it's called now.

200
00:06:32,310 --> 00:06:35,970
Quad screen of Weather Channel, Fox Weather.

201
00:06:36,190 --> 00:06:37,230
There's two other ones.

202
00:06:37,750 --> 00:06:39,290
And I'm sure people watch that all day

203
00:06:39,290 --> 00:06:39,510
long.

204
00:06:39,710 --> 00:06:40,130
Oh, weather.

205
00:06:41,350 --> 00:06:41,790
Weather.

206
00:06:42,630 --> 00:06:42,730
Whoa.

207
00:06:43,730 --> 00:06:44,170
Look.

208
00:06:44,770 --> 00:06:45,010
Weather.

209
00:06:45,170 --> 00:06:46,090
Holy mackerel.

210
00:06:46,170 --> 00:06:47,690
Do you see the size of that hail

211
00:06:47,690 --> 00:06:48,350
in Oklahoma?

212
00:06:48,970 --> 00:06:49,110
Ooh.

213
00:06:50,370 --> 00:06:51,830
Size of a softball.

214
00:06:51,990 --> 00:06:54,010
It's a form of disaster tourism.

215
00:06:54,010 --> 00:06:56,070
You know, virtual disaster tourism.

216
00:06:56,210 --> 00:06:58,550
Because he always has the storm chasers.

217
00:06:58,990 --> 00:07:01,210
And the storm chasers are now chasing snow.

218
00:07:02,010 --> 00:07:03,350
Yeah, we're in the snow right now.

219
00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:04,290
We're driving.

220
00:07:04,530 --> 00:07:05,170
It's snowy.

221
00:07:05,890 --> 00:07:06,730
Yep, it's cold.

222
00:07:07,330 --> 00:07:08,470
Back to you, Max.

223
00:07:10,330 --> 00:07:12,390
Anyway, I'm sure we will survive.

224
00:07:12,490 --> 00:07:15,230
If we don't get any more precipitation, we

225
00:07:15,230 --> 00:07:15,830
should be okay.

226
00:07:16,190 --> 00:07:19,170
I found my climate change things at the

227
00:07:19,170 --> 00:07:20,050
end of this clip.

228
00:07:20,050 --> 00:07:23,250
Because coming on the heels of the national

229
00:07:23,250 --> 00:07:28,850
security strategy is the new United States defense

230
00:07:28,850 --> 00:07:34,630
plan, which is just as stunning.

231
00:07:35,130 --> 00:07:37,950
34 pages to outline the Pentagon's new national

232
00:07:37,950 --> 00:07:40,510
defense strategy and tell allies they need to

233
00:07:40,510 --> 00:07:41,970
handle their own security.

234
00:07:42,490 --> 00:07:45,870
The defense blueprint reinforces Trump's America First philosophy,

235
00:07:46,050 --> 00:07:48,230
making that clear from its opening line.

236
00:07:48,230 --> 00:07:50,970
For too long, the U.S. government neglected,

237
00:07:51,250 --> 00:07:54,730
even rejected, putting Americans and their concrete interests

238
00:07:54,730 --> 00:07:55,310
first.

239
00:07:55,990 --> 00:07:58,410
Its primary concern is now security of the

240
00:07:58,410 --> 00:08:01,570
U.S. homeland and western hemisphere, including narco

241
00:08:01,570 --> 00:08:02,790
-trafficking and immigration.

242
00:08:03,650 --> 00:08:06,090
It's a break from the 2022 report under

243
00:08:06,090 --> 00:08:09,010
the Biden administration, where China was described as

244
00:08:09,010 --> 00:08:11,510
the most comprehensive and serious challenge to U

245
00:08:11,510 --> 00:08:12,550
.S. national security.

246
00:08:13,130 --> 00:08:15,790
Now China is priority number two, and the

247
00:08:15,790 --> 00:08:17,690
report says the U.S. should deter Beijing

248
00:08:17,690 --> 00:08:19,510
through strength, not confrontation.

249
00:08:20,250 --> 00:08:22,070
Our goal in doing so is not to

250
00:08:22,070 --> 00:08:24,770
dominate China, nor is it to strangle or

251
00:08:24,770 --> 00:08:25,690
humiliate them.

252
00:08:26,250 --> 00:08:29,050
Rather, our goal is simple, to prevent anyone,

253
00:08:29,410 --> 00:08:32,429
including China, from being able to dominate us

254
00:08:32,429 --> 00:08:33,429
or our allies.

255
00:08:34,169 --> 00:08:36,549
There's no mention of Taiwan in the report,

256
00:08:36,730 --> 00:08:39,289
despite U.S. intelligence believing China aims to

257
00:08:39,289 --> 00:08:41,049
take the island by force in the next

258
00:08:41,049 --> 00:08:41,450
year.

259
00:08:41,450 --> 00:08:43,850
As for the rest of the region, the

260
00:08:43,850 --> 00:08:45,650
document hints at a reduction of U.S.

261
00:08:45,790 --> 00:08:48,530
presence in the Korean peninsula, saying Seoul is

262
00:08:48,530 --> 00:08:52,030
capable of taking primary responsibility for deterring North

263
00:08:52,030 --> 00:08:54,550
Korea with more limited U.S. support.

264
00:08:55,010 --> 00:08:56,190
The message is clear.

265
00:08:56,530 --> 00:08:58,250
The U.S.'s allies will be expected to

266
00:08:58,250 --> 00:08:59,830
shoulder more of their own defense.

267
00:09:00,350 --> 00:09:01,830
That applies to Europe, too.

268
00:09:02,370 --> 00:09:05,090
Russia, which appears 89 times in the 2022

269
00:09:05,090 --> 00:09:08,230
report, is now largely in the background and

270
00:09:08,230 --> 00:09:11,410
dubbed a persistent but manageable threat to NATO's

271
00:09:11,410 --> 00:09:14,450
eastern members, despite its ongoing war in Ukraine.

272
00:09:15,150 --> 00:09:17,250
And while climate change featured heavily in the

273
00:09:17,250 --> 00:09:21,170
2022 report as a transboundary threat, four years

274
00:09:21,170 --> 00:09:22,910
on, it's not mentioned at all.

275
00:09:23,410 --> 00:09:25,770
I think they put that music in there

276
00:09:25,770 --> 00:09:29,070
to hijack the Europeans' nervous system.

277
00:09:33,450 --> 00:09:34,870
It's very annoying.

278
00:09:35,490 --> 00:09:36,630
Where did you get that clip?

279
00:09:36,630 --> 00:09:37,630
France 24.

280
00:09:38,390 --> 00:09:42,010
France 24, I think it's either that or...

281
00:09:42,010 --> 00:09:43,290
Yeah, France 24.

282
00:09:44,290 --> 00:09:45,790
Geez, and they produced it?

283
00:09:45,930 --> 00:09:46,530
That's weird.

284
00:09:47,030 --> 00:09:48,530
Oh, they do that all the time.

285
00:09:48,910 --> 00:09:49,510
It's horrible.

286
00:09:49,650 --> 00:09:50,770
They're going down the tubes.

287
00:09:51,810 --> 00:09:54,050
I mean, Euronews has got African dudes reading

288
00:09:54,050 --> 00:09:56,690
it, which kind of makes sense, considering the

289
00:09:56,690 --> 00:09:59,270
population makeup of Europe these days, to be

290
00:09:59,270 --> 00:10:00,010
honest about it.

291
00:10:00,410 --> 00:10:03,210
So, China slips to number two.

292
00:10:04,290 --> 00:10:05,510
What was number one?

293
00:10:05,570 --> 00:10:06,650
I couldn't figure it out.

294
00:10:07,210 --> 00:10:08,510
Number one is Merca.

295
00:10:08,690 --> 00:10:10,730
Merca first, the Western Hemisphere.

296
00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:14,010
But the European allies got to pull their

297
00:10:14,010 --> 00:10:14,590
own weight.

298
00:10:15,590 --> 00:10:16,510
We don't care.

299
00:10:18,250 --> 00:10:18,530
Yeah.

300
00:10:19,170 --> 00:10:19,870
It was kind of good.

301
00:10:20,010 --> 00:10:22,190
I like the pivoting a little bit away

302
00:10:22,190 --> 00:10:22,730
from China.

303
00:10:23,430 --> 00:10:26,910
Just in related news, you hear about the

304
00:10:26,910 --> 00:10:29,310
Chinese top guy in the military?

305
00:10:30,510 --> 00:10:31,570
Yeah, they kicked him out.

306
00:10:31,570 --> 00:10:33,030
Him and another guy.

307
00:10:33,030 --> 00:10:35,490
There's hardly anyone left in that committee anymore.

308
00:10:35,650 --> 00:10:38,790
Zheng Youxia was once the president's most trusted

309
00:10:38,790 --> 00:10:41,370
military general, his second in command.

310
00:10:41,630 --> 00:10:44,770
He's now been placed under formal investigation, accused

311
00:10:44,770 --> 00:10:47,410
of grave violations of discipline and violations of

312
00:10:47,410 --> 00:10:49,630
the law, though the defense ministry has provided

313
00:10:49,630 --> 00:10:51,710
no details of the alleged misconduct.

314
00:10:52,370 --> 00:10:54,890
The drastic move lays bare major fractures within

315
00:10:54,890 --> 00:10:56,690
the military's most senior ranks.

316
00:10:57,210 --> 00:10:58,750
The 75-year-old is one of just

317
00:10:58,750 --> 00:11:01,330
a few leading officers with combat experience.

318
00:11:01,870 --> 00:11:04,570
He joined the People's Liberation Army in 1968,

319
00:11:05,230 --> 00:11:08,790
fought in China's war in Vietnam, and climbed

320
00:11:08,790 --> 00:11:11,170
the ranks to become Xi's most important ally

321
00:11:11,170 --> 00:11:14,190
in modernizing the PLA, often taking to the

322
00:11:14,190 --> 00:11:15,290
international stage.

323
00:11:15,870 --> 00:11:17,830
We hope to communicate with the armed forces

324
00:11:17,830 --> 00:11:20,270
of various countries and will continue to deepen

325
00:11:20,270 --> 00:11:21,550
China-Russia relations.

326
00:11:22,410 --> 00:11:24,970
Another member of the Central Military Commission, Liu

327
00:11:24,970 --> 00:11:27,730
Zhenli, has also been placed under investigation by

328
00:11:27,730 --> 00:11:29,230
China's ruling Communist Party.

329
00:11:29,230 --> 00:11:31,930
Together, they were the two remaining leaders of

330
00:11:31,930 --> 00:11:34,850
its armed forces, who had survived previous purges

331
00:11:34,850 --> 00:11:37,270
after eight top generals were expelled back in

332
00:11:37,270 --> 00:11:37,730
October.

333
00:11:38,090 --> 00:11:40,010
Man, they're really doing something.

334
00:11:40,190 --> 00:11:41,850
Eight, so ten guys in total?

335
00:11:42,350 --> 00:11:44,890
This latest crackdown leaves Xi Jinping in sole

336
00:11:44,890 --> 00:11:48,310
operational control of the PLA, further consolidating his

337
00:11:48,310 --> 00:11:49,850
grip over the armed forces.

338
00:11:50,590 --> 00:11:52,770
Probes can last months or even years.

339
00:11:53,090 --> 00:11:55,790
Most are detained, found guilty, and removed from

340
00:11:55,790 --> 00:11:57,030
their positions in the party.

341
00:11:57,050 --> 00:11:57,990
Guilty of what?

342
00:11:58,090 --> 00:11:58,570
Guilty?

343
00:11:58,570 --> 00:12:00,190
They're not telling us.

344
00:12:00,350 --> 00:12:01,610
They never tell us anything.

345
00:12:01,850 --> 00:12:03,290
They just tell them they're found guilty.

346
00:12:03,410 --> 00:12:04,890
They probably are guilty of something.

347
00:12:05,010 --> 00:12:07,790
The Chinese have a tendency to be corrupt.

348
00:12:07,970 --> 00:12:10,630
Well, I think I know what it might

349
00:12:10,630 --> 00:12:10,910
be.

350
00:12:11,170 --> 00:12:12,290
This is like 20 more seconds.

351
00:12:12,390 --> 00:12:13,530
Listen to the very end here.

352
00:12:13,690 --> 00:12:16,290
More than 200,000 officials have been expelled

353
00:12:16,290 --> 00:12:19,090
since Xi came to power in 2012, part

354
00:12:19,090 --> 00:12:21,390
of a broad anti-corruption drive to root

355
00:12:21,390 --> 00:12:22,030
out graft.

356
00:12:22,410 --> 00:12:23,990
But it's also viewed by many as a

357
00:12:23,990 --> 00:12:26,370
way to ensure loyalty and make the military

358
00:12:26,370 --> 00:12:27,470
more combat ready.

359
00:12:28,770 --> 00:12:31,150
In recent years, China has ramped up military

360
00:12:31,150 --> 00:12:33,870
drills around Taiwan, and the US government says

361
00:12:33,870 --> 00:12:35,930
Xi has ordered the PLA to prepare to

362
00:12:35,930 --> 00:12:38,770
seize the island by force by 2027.

363
00:12:39,450 --> 00:12:40,590
I think that's it.

364
00:12:40,650 --> 00:12:42,410
I think these guys leaked the plans about

365
00:12:42,410 --> 00:12:43,190
2027.

366
00:12:43,410 --> 00:12:45,030
We were hearing about that almost a year

367
00:12:45,030 --> 00:12:46,410
ago, the 2027.

368
00:12:46,410 --> 00:12:47,830
I think it was even longer than that.

369
00:12:47,950 --> 00:12:49,070
Yeah, 2027.

370
00:12:49,210 --> 00:12:51,030
Oh, that's when it's going to happen, 2027.

371
00:12:51,210 --> 00:12:52,050
Get ready for China.

372
00:12:52,730 --> 00:12:55,070
And I guess we're going to be ready

373
00:12:55,070 --> 00:12:58,590
to make our own chips by 2027.

374
00:12:59,850 --> 00:13:00,690
Will we?

375
00:13:01,010 --> 00:13:02,010
Seems like you need.

376
00:13:02,230 --> 00:13:05,650
I mean, that Samsung plant is, I don't

377
00:13:05,650 --> 00:13:08,130
think that's operational, the one up in Taylor,

378
00:13:08,310 --> 00:13:08,490
Texas.

379
00:13:08,810 --> 00:13:10,430
Yeah, but that's not the same as the

380
00:13:10,430 --> 00:13:16,990
two-nanometer process they're using at Taiwan Semiconductor.

381
00:13:18,090 --> 00:13:20,350
They're so ahead of the game, it's ridiculous.

382
00:13:20,350 --> 00:13:21,910
Of course, we'd allow that to happen.

383
00:13:22,530 --> 00:13:24,910
How long would it take for us to

384
00:13:24,910 --> 00:13:26,310
replicate what we need?

385
00:13:26,310 --> 00:13:27,830
Well, it's all, you know, it's not their

386
00:13:27,830 --> 00:13:28,170
gear.

387
00:13:28,290 --> 00:13:29,550
That's the thing that's good.

388
00:13:30,130 --> 00:13:31,310
You know, it's Dutch gear.

389
00:13:33,890 --> 00:13:35,350
The etching is Dutch.

390
00:13:36,570 --> 00:13:39,350
We can buy, no, TSML is the...

391
00:13:39,350 --> 00:13:40,350
No, ASML.

392
00:13:41,050 --> 00:13:42,130
ASML, yeah, those guys.

393
00:13:42,230 --> 00:13:42,810
That's the Dutch guys.

394
00:13:42,830 --> 00:13:44,370
They would, they can, you know, we can,

395
00:13:44,550 --> 00:13:47,310
we basically tell them what to do.

396
00:13:48,330 --> 00:13:50,770
They don't just sell their stuff to anyone,

397
00:13:50,850 --> 00:13:52,170
otherwise the Chinese would have it.

398
00:13:53,210 --> 00:13:55,690
And so we just say, okay, you got

399
00:13:55,690 --> 00:13:56,290
to build a place.

400
00:13:56,410 --> 00:13:58,870
The problem is that the TSMC, there's a

401
00:13:58,870 --> 00:14:00,030
lot too many letters here.

402
00:14:00,410 --> 00:14:05,410
The TSMC guys, they tried, I think, made

403
00:14:05,410 --> 00:14:09,230
a couple of advances toward building or setting

404
00:14:09,230 --> 00:14:12,070
up shop in the USA, but determined that

405
00:14:12,070 --> 00:14:13,370
our people are too stupid.

406
00:14:14,370 --> 00:14:17,330
Well, they're too stupid at the prices they

407
00:14:17,330 --> 00:14:17,670
pay.

408
00:14:17,910 --> 00:14:18,850
Ah, that would be it.

409
00:14:19,470 --> 00:14:22,030
Because we got smart people, but, you know,

410
00:14:22,090 --> 00:14:23,810
you don't get them for pennies on the

411
00:14:23,810 --> 00:14:24,150
dollar.

412
00:14:24,770 --> 00:14:27,610
Well, somebody needs to start making some RAM,

413
00:14:27,750 --> 00:14:28,210
man.

414
00:14:28,890 --> 00:14:30,110
The RAM prices are nuts.

415
00:14:30,110 --> 00:14:31,230
RAM is funny, yeah.

416
00:14:31,230 --> 00:14:32,430
We got to make some RAM.

417
00:14:32,830 --> 00:14:34,470
Yeah, that'll change quick.

418
00:14:35,290 --> 00:14:35,950
Well, how?

419
00:14:37,730 --> 00:14:39,450
By the AI collapse.

420
00:14:40,070 --> 00:14:40,850
That'll do it.

421
00:14:41,390 --> 00:14:45,070
AI collapse, everything goes great.

422
00:14:45,470 --> 00:14:47,130
We'll all be desoldering chips.

423
00:14:47,330 --> 00:14:48,270
Look, I got some RAM.

424
00:14:49,070 --> 00:14:52,410
You'll have a 22-terabyte solid-state drive.

425
00:14:53,530 --> 00:14:56,750
Hey, man, I think Linux this Sunday, one

426
00:14:56,750 --> 00:14:58,350
week from now, the show will run on

427
00:14:58,350 --> 00:14:58,590
Linux.

428
00:14:58,670 --> 00:14:58,910
What?

429
00:14:59,130 --> 00:15:00,110
Yeah, I think so.

430
00:15:00,150 --> 00:15:01,250
I got really far.

431
00:15:01,410 --> 00:15:03,210
I got the Roadcaster working.

432
00:15:03,330 --> 00:15:04,370
I was blown away.

433
00:15:05,530 --> 00:15:07,350
I didn't think it was going to be

434
00:15:07,350 --> 00:15:07,630
possible.

435
00:15:08,030 --> 00:15:09,150
You can thank me.

436
00:15:09,970 --> 00:15:12,930
Because you put a timeline on it.

437
00:15:12,990 --> 00:15:14,490
You got me all stressed out.

438
00:15:15,030 --> 00:15:16,350
Like, I got to prove this.

439
00:15:16,430 --> 00:15:17,190
I can do this.

440
00:15:17,470 --> 00:15:18,910
Yeah, you're always trying to show off.

441
00:15:19,390 --> 00:15:21,350
Well, it's not about show.

442
00:15:21,430 --> 00:15:25,470
I read somewhere that Linux desktop now is

443
00:15:25,470 --> 00:15:29,300
close to 18% of all desktops.

444
00:15:30,150 --> 00:15:30,450
No.

445
00:15:30,750 --> 00:15:31,630
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

446
00:15:31,630 --> 00:15:32,610
Well, I mean, I read it.

447
00:15:32,630 --> 00:15:33,650
It doesn't mean it's true.

448
00:15:35,650 --> 00:15:36,630
It could be.

449
00:15:37,450 --> 00:15:39,770
I think it'd be nice if it was,

450
00:15:39,830 --> 00:15:40,810
you know, half.

451
00:15:41,850 --> 00:15:43,910
People are so sick of Windows.

452
00:15:45,090 --> 00:15:47,010
And it's really just the stuff getting in

453
00:15:47,010 --> 00:15:47,370
the way.

454
00:15:47,530 --> 00:15:48,210
It's the pop-up.

455
00:15:48,350 --> 00:15:49,050
It's the ads.

456
00:15:49,270 --> 00:15:51,250
It's the, you know, oh, you want to

457
00:15:51,250 --> 00:15:51,710
use this?

458
00:15:51,810 --> 00:15:52,670
Well, you got to put it on the

459
00:15:52,670 --> 00:15:53,050
cloud.

460
00:15:53,290 --> 00:15:54,290
Get a cloud account.

461
00:15:55,670 --> 00:15:56,970
I think that people are just sick of

462
00:15:56,970 --> 00:15:57,070
it.

463
00:15:57,070 --> 00:15:57,670
And it sucks.

464
00:15:58,030 --> 00:15:59,430
It's slow.

465
00:15:59,730 --> 00:16:00,450
It's sluggish.

466
00:16:00,450 --> 00:16:04,530
Well, one of the problems, in my perception,

467
00:16:05,230 --> 00:16:09,270
is that Windows always had the comparative.

468
00:16:09,590 --> 00:16:11,490
It was always Windows versus Mac.

469
00:16:11,790 --> 00:16:14,050
And with Windows, you felt you had some

470
00:16:14,050 --> 00:16:14,790
control.

471
00:16:16,110 --> 00:16:16,330
Really?

472
00:16:18,630 --> 00:16:22,270
Yeah, because with Mac, it would put things

473
00:16:22,270 --> 00:16:22,890
in files.

474
00:16:23,110 --> 00:16:25,590
It would assume you're an idiot and just

475
00:16:25,590 --> 00:16:27,090
move things into certain places.

476
00:16:27,310 --> 00:16:28,710
And sometimes you couldn't find things.

477
00:16:28,770 --> 00:16:29,330
You didn't know where they were.

478
00:16:29,330 --> 00:16:32,510
That's gotten really bad with the iOS, with

479
00:16:32,510 --> 00:16:33,410
the iPad stuff.

480
00:16:33,530 --> 00:16:36,910
Tina is continuously, like, I mean, she goes

481
00:16:36,910 --> 00:16:39,810
into the closet and pulls out my old

482
00:16:39,810 --> 00:16:45,370
MacBook Pro, I think, from at least eight

483
00:16:45,370 --> 00:16:49,690
years ago because she can't get Microsoft Word

484
00:16:49,690 --> 00:16:52,350
to function properly on her iPad.

485
00:16:52,630 --> 00:16:54,070
And she has a keyboard that goes with

486
00:16:54,070 --> 00:16:57,850
it, which doesn't have an escape key, of

487
00:16:57,850 --> 00:16:58,130
course.

488
00:16:58,130 --> 00:16:59,010
What?

489
00:16:59,390 --> 00:16:59,590
Yeah.

490
00:16:59,730 --> 00:17:01,270
It does not have an escape key.

491
00:17:01,430 --> 00:17:03,130
Yeah, Apple would pull that stunt.

492
00:17:03,510 --> 00:17:07,710
Yeah, it reminds me of Texas Instruments when

493
00:17:07,710 --> 00:17:09,290
they came out with one of their computers,

494
00:17:09,930 --> 00:17:12,290
and they had the keys that were supposed

495
00:17:12,290 --> 00:17:13,210
to be there weren't there.

496
00:17:14,490 --> 00:17:17,770
Why is there no shift key?

497
00:17:17,890 --> 00:17:18,710
What am I supposed to do?

498
00:17:20,250 --> 00:17:21,349
No S key.

499
00:17:21,470 --> 00:17:22,010
What are we doing?

500
00:17:22,670 --> 00:17:23,690
There's a lot of stuff.

501
00:17:23,690 --> 00:17:28,270
But with Windows, and you felt you had

502
00:17:28,270 --> 00:17:31,250
a little more control, Linux is ultimately very

503
00:17:31,250 --> 00:17:33,130
control-oriented for the user.

504
00:17:33,810 --> 00:17:36,310
You want to move a file from A

505
00:17:36,310 --> 00:17:37,490
to B, it's like, okay.

506
00:17:38,590 --> 00:17:40,790
It's not questioning you all the time or

507
00:17:40,790 --> 00:17:45,030
automatically doing stuff, like the Windows in this

508
00:17:45,030 --> 00:17:48,330
cloud, this cloud thing, this stuff, I'm looking

509
00:17:48,330 --> 00:17:49,810
for something and where is it?

510
00:17:49,810 --> 00:17:53,370
They moved it to the cloud for some

511
00:17:53,370 --> 00:17:54,150
unknown reason.

512
00:17:54,250 --> 00:17:55,390
It's up there in the cloud.

513
00:17:55,470 --> 00:17:57,970
Well, you have two documents folders when you

514
00:17:57,970 --> 00:17:59,010
first start up Windows.

515
00:17:59,130 --> 00:18:00,230
I didn't realize this.

516
00:18:00,930 --> 00:18:03,070
You got like a cloud document, and that's

517
00:18:03,070 --> 00:18:03,750
the default.

518
00:18:04,030 --> 00:18:04,410
It's like, what?

519
00:18:04,790 --> 00:18:06,150
Where did everything go?

520
00:18:06,970 --> 00:18:09,350
Oh, it's in a separate document folder.

521
00:18:09,550 --> 00:18:12,750
Yeah, so this is all, this is from,

522
00:18:13,210 --> 00:18:15,110
I think, this is because Mac people came

523
00:18:15,110 --> 00:18:16,410
over and started working for Microsoft.

524
00:18:16,410 --> 00:18:20,550
The whole idea of Macintosh was to make

525
00:18:20,550 --> 00:18:21,850
it so he's brain dead.

526
00:18:22,010 --> 00:18:28,070
Well, I'll tell you this, 365, which is

527
00:18:28,070 --> 00:18:32,810
their office suite, was down last week for,

528
00:18:32,930 --> 00:18:34,630
I think, 36 hours.

529
00:18:34,830 --> 00:18:37,630
All corporate email was basically dead.

530
00:18:38,490 --> 00:18:40,930
I mean, I was getting bounces from Marriott

531
00:18:40,930 --> 00:18:41,610
.com.

532
00:18:41,990 --> 00:18:43,030
That's not good.

533
00:18:44,210 --> 00:18:47,130
Now, everyone trusts all these companies with all

534
00:18:47,130 --> 00:18:47,810
of their stuff.

535
00:18:47,930 --> 00:18:49,210
Oh, yeah, put it, the cloud.

536
00:18:49,310 --> 00:18:51,210
I remember the cloud, the cloud, put it

537
00:18:51,210 --> 00:18:51,670
on the cloud.

538
00:18:51,970 --> 00:18:53,230
Oh, it's great, the cloud.

539
00:18:53,830 --> 00:18:56,670
But what happened with the cloud, Dave Jones

540
00:18:56,670 --> 00:18:58,650
is actually telling me this, because he does

541
00:18:58,650 --> 00:19:00,270
IT for an accounting firm.

542
00:19:01,050 --> 00:19:03,510
He says the whole idea was that you

543
00:19:03,510 --> 00:19:05,710
were moving CapEx to OpEx.

544
00:19:06,490 --> 00:19:09,850
But these days, you have to take a

545
00:19:09,850 --> 00:19:14,350
full year subscription to even really get any

546
00:19:14,350 --> 00:19:15,230
kind of deal.

547
00:19:15,710 --> 00:19:19,450
So, you know, it's not even really an

548
00:19:19,450 --> 00:19:20,550
OpEx anymore.

549
00:19:20,690 --> 00:19:24,970
And they keep, you know, increasing prices, removing

550
00:19:24,970 --> 00:19:27,210
features that are now a separate tier.

551
00:19:28,010 --> 00:19:30,870
You know, it's just, you do something, like

552
00:19:30,870 --> 00:19:32,570
the AI companies are great at this.

553
00:19:33,050 --> 00:19:35,530
You do something in your tier, and then

554
00:19:35,530 --> 00:19:36,930
all of a sudden it's like, well, you

555
00:19:36,930 --> 00:19:38,550
can wait for a week until we have

556
00:19:38,550 --> 00:19:40,650
a GPU free, or you can upgrade to

557
00:19:40,650 --> 00:19:41,110
$200.

558
00:19:42,120 --> 00:19:45,890
Not everybody knows that CapEx is capital expenditure

559
00:19:45,890 --> 00:19:47,510
versus operating expenses.

560
00:19:48,670 --> 00:19:51,230
I think we have the most intelligent people

561
00:19:51,230 --> 00:19:52,050
in the universe.

562
00:19:53,450 --> 00:19:55,490
We have a lot of Zeds that think

563
00:19:55,490 --> 00:19:56,610
it's Florida ounces.

564
00:19:56,770 --> 00:19:59,610
Well, okay, so the capital expenditure is an

565
00:19:59,610 --> 00:20:02,770
important point, because in the new tax ruling,

566
00:20:03,170 --> 00:20:06,010
all these companies that are building factories, we

567
00:20:06,010 --> 00:20:08,910
hear, we hear, we hear.

568
00:20:09,170 --> 00:20:11,230
Yeah, I've heard that they're doing it.

569
00:20:11,310 --> 00:20:11,750
I've heard.

570
00:20:12,210 --> 00:20:12,730
Trillions.

571
00:20:13,430 --> 00:20:16,630
The reason why they are doing it is

572
00:20:16,630 --> 00:20:18,670
that they will be allowed to write off

573
00:20:18,670 --> 00:20:22,210
all capital expenditures in one year instead of

574
00:20:22,210 --> 00:20:24,710
amortizing that over, what is it, seven years?

575
00:20:25,010 --> 00:20:26,830
Except for, I don't think the oil guys

576
00:20:26,830 --> 00:20:27,690
get that kind of deal.

577
00:20:27,770 --> 00:20:29,370
For some reason, the oil guys didn't get

578
00:20:29,370 --> 00:20:29,790
that deal.

579
00:20:29,890 --> 00:20:30,570
I don't know why.

580
00:20:30,990 --> 00:20:33,450
The oil guys have a deal, a real

581
00:20:33,450 --> 00:20:33,830
deal.

582
00:20:35,070 --> 00:20:36,910
Not according to the oil baron.

583
00:20:36,990 --> 00:20:39,310
He's feeling pretty screwed these days.

584
00:20:39,490 --> 00:20:41,730
Well, but by their standards.

585
00:20:42,110 --> 00:20:43,490
Oh, that's what I always tell them.

586
00:20:43,590 --> 00:20:47,630
Boo hoo with your ranches.

587
00:20:47,830 --> 00:20:49,250
I don't feel that bad.

588
00:20:49,570 --> 00:20:51,530
I mean, come on, people.

589
00:20:52,510 --> 00:20:54,150
I don't feel that bad.

590
00:20:55,130 --> 00:20:57,010
But yeah, I'm excited.

591
00:20:57,010 --> 00:20:59,770
Just getting the Rodecaster and all three of

592
00:20:59,770 --> 00:21:03,470
its USB interfaces to work was astounding.

593
00:21:04,750 --> 00:21:07,510
That was the part that I thought was

594
00:21:07,510 --> 00:21:09,670
really not going to be easy.

595
00:21:10,350 --> 00:21:15,370
You should productize some of it and sell

596
00:21:15,370 --> 00:21:18,230
it back as drivers to Rode, the guys

597
00:21:18,230 --> 00:21:19,970
who never give you anything for free.

598
00:21:20,470 --> 00:21:20,790
Screw them.

599
00:21:21,090 --> 00:21:23,410
Those guys, you're so right.

600
00:21:23,410 --> 00:21:26,190
They give every YouTuber a free gear.

601
00:21:26,690 --> 00:21:27,710
Oh, we got this new box.

602
00:21:27,890 --> 00:21:28,870
Send it to that YouTuber.

603
00:21:29,510 --> 00:21:30,910
They never send anything.

604
00:21:31,050 --> 00:21:32,350
Never, never.

605
00:21:32,830 --> 00:21:34,090
I don't get it.

606
00:21:34,670 --> 00:21:36,750
Yeah, that's why you should sell them.

607
00:21:36,870 --> 00:21:37,530
I'm not going to sell.

608
00:21:37,590 --> 00:21:38,970
I'm going to open source my stuff.

609
00:21:39,110 --> 00:21:39,870
I'm not going to sell it.

610
00:21:40,330 --> 00:21:40,490
Oh.

611
00:21:43,610 --> 00:21:45,810
Hey, I want to give back to the

612
00:21:45,810 --> 00:21:46,070
world.

613
00:21:46,230 --> 00:21:47,810
I'm at a stage in my life where

614
00:21:47,810 --> 00:21:49,170
I care about giving back.

615
00:21:49,190 --> 00:21:50,510
You're giving back to Rode.

616
00:21:50,510 --> 00:21:51,350
I'm not giving back.

617
00:21:51,370 --> 00:21:53,050
The people who screw you out of free

618
00:21:53,050 --> 00:21:53,470
gear.

619
00:21:54,430 --> 00:21:57,070
You must give your enemy to drink and

620
00:21:57,070 --> 00:21:59,730
to eat and be like pouring hot coals

621
00:21:59,730 --> 00:22:00,050
on their head.

622
00:22:00,050 --> 00:22:01,930
What are you, a communist now?

623
00:22:02,710 --> 00:22:04,070
I'm not a communist.

624
00:22:04,330 --> 00:22:05,190
You're a communist.

625
00:22:08,210 --> 00:22:09,610
I am not a communist.

626
00:22:10,030 --> 00:22:11,170
How dare you?

627
00:22:11,710 --> 00:22:13,170
Someone got really bent out of shape the

628
00:22:13,170 --> 00:22:14,650
other day because you called me a bigot,

629
00:22:14,710 --> 00:22:16,310
and they thought that was really a horrible,

630
00:22:16,370 --> 00:22:18,910
horrible thing to say.

631
00:22:19,910 --> 00:22:22,450
That's because I try to throw the term

632
00:22:22,450 --> 00:22:26,290
in every so often to familiarize people with

633
00:22:26,290 --> 00:22:27,530
what it actually means.

634
00:22:27,610 --> 00:22:28,930
People always think it's racial.

635
00:22:31,190 --> 00:22:32,910
I forget what the context.

636
00:22:33,370 --> 00:22:35,150
He had a different context for it but

637
00:22:35,150 --> 00:22:36,050
did not like it.

638
00:22:36,930 --> 00:22:39,850
No, I understand when I call you a

639
00:22:39,850 --> 00:22:41,410
bigot, and I've done it more than once

640
00:22:41,410 --> 00:22:46,230
on the show, it's based on the definition

641
00:22:46,230 --> 00:22:46,910
of bigotry.

642
00:22:46,910 --> 00:22:53,090
You'd be, for example, adhering to something very

643
00:22:53,090 --> 00:22:57,610
minuscule and minor, and you think everything that's

644
00:22:57,610 --> 00:23:01,350
against your basic thoughts is bad, and that

645
00:23:01,350 --> 00:23:04,230
is bigoted by definition.

646
00:23:04,650 --> 00:23:05,570
Is it really now?

647
00:23:05,810 --> 00:23:07,730
Let's read the definition of bigotry.

648
00:23:07,810 --> 00:23:08,590
Why don't you bring it up?

649
00:23:08,810 --> 00:23:08,990
Okay.

650
00:23:09,710 --> 00:23:11,690
The definition of bigotry.

651
00:23:11,750 --> 00:23:13,910
Now, of course, this is Merriam-Webster.

652
00:23:14,010 --> 00:23:14,750
It's the first one.

653
00:23:14,750 --> 00:23:19,350
A narrow-minded person who obstinately adheres to

654
00:23:19,350 --> 00:23:24,150
their own opinions and prejudices, especially one who

655
00:23:24,150 --> 00:23:27,410
strongly and unfairly dislikes or feels hatred towards

656
00:23:27,410 --> 00:23:29,310
others based on their group membership.

657
00:23:29,850 --> 00:23:32,130
I'm not a bigot like that.

658
00:23:32,730 --> 00:23:34,090
No, you're not a bigot like that, but

659
00:23:34,090 --> 00:23:36,210
that's the secondary meaning.

660
00:23:36,430 --> 00:23:39,130
The initial meaning is you are, in many

661
00:23:39,130 --> 00:23:39,230
ways.

662
00:23:39,230 --> 00:23:42,150
Narrow-minded person who obstinately adheres to their

663
00:23:42,150 --> 00:23:43,350
own opinions and prejudices.

664
00:23:43,350 --> 00:23:45,170
You have a lot of opinions that you

665
00:23:45,170 --> 00:23:47,890
adhere to obstinately.

666
00:23:48,170 --> 00:23:51,010
You are the biggest bigot if that's the

667
00:23:51,010 --> 00:23:51,630
definition.

668
00:23:54,250 --> 00:23:57,290
You could call me one in certain circumstances,

669
00:23:57,670 --> 00:23:58,630
and you'd be correct.

670
00:23:58,890 --> 00:24:00,950
Yes, but I don't do that.

671
00:24:03,070 --> 00:24:04,510
You're doing it right now.

672
00:24:05,070 --> 00:24:07,150
I didn't call you a bigot.

673
00:24:07,610 --> 00:24:09,450
No, no, you're being obstinate.

674
00:24:09,990 --> 00:24:10,830
Oh, okay.

675
00:24:10,830 --> 00:24:11,790
Well, it's all right.

676
00:24:13,830 --> 00:24:15,670
It's hard to be right all the time.

677
00:24:15,770 --> 00:24:16,370
It's just hard.

678
00:24:17,650 --> 00:24:19,610
Speaking of that, I just want to— See,

679
00:24:19,690 --> 00:24:20,250
there you go.

680
00:24:20,410 --> 00:24:21,890
That's what I'm talking about here.

681
00:24:21,970 --> 00:24:22,590
I just wanted to mention.

682
00:24:22,590 --> 00:24:24,290
So this guy gets all bent out of

683
00:24:24,290 --> 00:24:25,810
shape because I used the word properly.

684
00:24:26,010 --> 00:24:26,670
I'm sorry.

685
00:24:27,490 --> 00:24:28,490
Hey, I'm not complaining.

686
00:24:28,670 --> 00:24:29,170
I just came up.

687
00:24:29,170 --> 00:24:31,550
This reminds me of the word niggardly.

688
00:24:32,810 --> 00:24:33,530
Well, yeah.

689
00:24:33,530 --> 00:24:34,510
You bring that up.

690
00:24:34,570 --> 00:24:36,050
I mean, I don't even do that one.

691
00:24:36,050 --> 00:24:40,290
But that's a very—it means cheap.

692
00:24:40,750 --> 00:24:42,850
Well, let's just stick with this for one

693
00:24:42,850 --> 00:24:46,430
second because we get emails frequently.

694
00:24:46,430 --> 00:24:51,050
I would say ever since we just disagreed

695
00:24:51,050 --> 00:24:55,630
with the libertarian narrative and now widespread narrative

696
00:24:55,630 --> 00:24:58,430
that Israel controls everything in America.

697
00:24:59,750 --> 00:25:06,030
But it's interesting because people—we have a different—

698
00:25:06,030 --> 00:25:06,190
I know.

699
00:25:06,290 --> 00:25:08,370
The logic—and by the way, what you're saying,

700
00:25:08,670 --> 00:25:12,890
the logic of that thought that Israel compares

701
00:25:12,890 --> 00:25:14,610
or— Controls.

702
00:25:14,650 --> 00:25:15,670
Israel controls.

703
00:25:15,850 --> 00:25:16,230
I'm sorry.

704
00:25:16,610 --> 00:25:21,670
Israel controls everything in America is so ludicrous.

705
00:25:23,090 --> 00:25:24,370
It's ludicrous.

706
00:25:25,070 --> 00:25:27,610
But yet people are all in on it.

707
00:25:27,610 --> 00:25:29,870
And it's baffling to us.

708
00:25:32,430 --> 00:25:33,750
So—but even—like Trump.

709
00:25:33,870 --> 00:25:35,450
And we got an interesting—I got an interesting

710
00:25:35,450 --> 00:25:36,230
email about this.

711
00:25:36,930 --> 00:25:39,730
Like Trump is like—let me see if I

712
00:25:39,730 --> 00:25:40,450
have that email.

713
00:25:40,610 --> 00:25:42,550
Here's our cold weather show, ladies and gentlemen.

714
00:25:42,650 --> 00:25:44,590
Well, we got some other stuff to talk

715
00:25:44,590 --> 00:25:44,810
about.

716
00:25:45,310 --> 00:25:49,010
But people say, you're such fans.

717
00:25:49,090 --> 00:25:50,710
You're like licking his ass.

718
00:25:54,310 --> 00:25:55,930
On and on and on and on.

719
00:25:55,930 --> 00:25:58,010
And I'm like, first of all, we have

720
00:25:58,010 --> 00:25:58,690
an opinion.

721
00:26:00,370 --> 00:26:02,070
And sometimes he's funny.

722
00:26:02,270 --> 00:26:02,910
And we laugh.

723
00:26:03,430 --> 00:26:04,950
He can be very funny.

724
00:26:05,130 --> 00:26:05,310
Yeah.

725
00:26:05,490 --> 00:26:08,250
And we often—you more than I—say, you know,

726
00:26:08,270 --> 00:26:09,130
he's not going to do anything.

727
00:26:09,210 --> 00:26:10,110
That's not going to happen.

728
00:26:11,710 --> 00:26:13,330
Because it's not going to happen.

729
00:26:13,590 --> 00:26:16,790
But here's—this is from Jason.

730
00:26:17,410 --> 00:26:21,810
He says, as an avid libertarian slash anarcho

731
00:26:21,810 --> 00:26:25,150
-capitalist, I thought I'd give you a quick

732
00:26:25,150 --> 00:26:28,530
explanation about Judge Napolitano, Scott Horton, and Dave

733
00:26:28,530 --> 00:26:31,550
Smith, and the rest of our libertarian crew.

734
00:26:32,490 --> 00:26:34,270
And by the way, everyone goes through a

735
00:26:34,270 --> 00:26:35,770
period of libertarianism.

736
00:26:35,910 --> 00:26:38,170
This is like the—this is very much like

737
00:26:38,170 --> 00:26:40,910
college women who go through their small— their

738
00:26:40,910 --> 00:26:42,910
small period of being a lesbian.

739
00:26:43,350 --> 00:26:46,050
Let's just analyze it that way.

740
00:26:47,490 --> 00:26:47,970
Wow.

741
00:26:49,590 --> 00:26:51,550
It's true we don't like Trump or his

742
00:26:51,550 --> 00:26:52,210
foreign policy.

743
00:26:52,290 --> 00:26:53,650
I think this is because I said Judge

744
00:26:53,650 --> 00:26:56,150
Napolitano just hates Trump.

745
00:26:56,250 --> 00:26:59,410
But I also said—well, no, let me read

746
00:26:59,410 --> 00:26:59,590
on.

747
00:27:00,610 --> 00:27:02,710
Many of us aren't fans of ICE and

748
00:27:02,710 --> 00:27:05,150
other federal agencies, but we're quite sincere.

749
00:27:05,290 --> 00:27:06,310
Well, I don't doubt that.

750
00:27:06,910 --> 00:27:08,890
We don't like the Democrats either and see

751
00:27:08,890 --> 00:27:10,610
them as hypocrites who are just as much

752
00:27:10,610 --> 00:27:13,910
in love with government power domestically and American

753
00:27:13,910 --> 00:27:18,910
mercantilism abroad as Republicans are.

754
00:27:19,210 --> 00:27:21,590
We like Ron Paul and Thomas Massey because

755
00:27:21,590 --> 00:27:25,510
they oppose American hegemony and support a return

756
00:27:25,510 --> 00:27:29,010
to the Jeffersonian values of an agrarian republic

757
00:27:29,010 --> 00:27:31,630
that stays at home and minds its own

758
00:27:31,630 --> 00:27:32,230
business.

759
00:27:32,890 --> 00:27:35,230
And I'll just insert here, you will hear

760
00:27:35,230 --> 00:27:37,650
in today's show why that is not possible.

761
00:27:37,650 --> 00:27:40,670
I know you guys mostly respond to media

762
00:27:40,670 --> 00:27:44,970
rather than taking philosophical stances, but it's quite

763
00:27:44,970 --> 00:27:47,230
frustrating to listen to some of it as

764
00:27:47,230 --> 00:27:49,430
it feels like you're mocking our viewpoint without

765
00:27:49,430 --> 00:27:52,830
really understanding why we believe what we believe.

766
00:27:53,770 --> 00:27:56,170
And then he throws in some Christian stuff,

767
00:27:56,250 --> 00:27:57,670
which is supposed to convince me.

768
00:27:58,210 --> 00:27:59,950
I just wanted to get that off my

769
00:27:59,950 --> 00:28:00,090
chest.

770
00:28:00,090 --> 00:28:04,770
OK, so here's the point I was making

771
00:28:04,770 --> 00:28:09,970
is that when you have the same libertarians,

772
00:28:10,050 --> 00:28:11,970
I'm talking about these podcasters, I'm not talking

773
00:28:11,970 --> 00:28:14,670
about you or anybody else in particular, but

774
00:28:14,670 --> 00:28:17,670
we have podcasters who say, oh, it's going

775
00:28:17,670 --> 00:28:18,870
to go to war with Iran.

776
00:28:19,210 --> 00:28:20,850
It's going to go to war with Venezuela.

777
00:28:21,370 --> 00:28:24,830
And when Trump doesn't do it, they never

778
00:28:24,830 --> 00:28:26,090
say, wow, that was cool.

779
00:28:26,130 --> 00:28:26,810
He didn't do it.

780
00:28:26,890 --> 00:28:27,670
Maybe there's hope.

781
00:28:27,670 --> 00:28:29,710
That would that's my point.

782
00:28:30,010 --> 00:28:33,710
It's the hypocrisy of it, because ultimately you're

783
00:28:33,710 --> 00:28:35,390
not libertarians, you're Trump haters.

784
00:28:36,090 --> 00:28:36,650
That's the point.

785
00:28:36,710 --> 00:28:37,270
And what is this?

786
00:28:38,130 --> 00:28:38,930
That's good.

787
00:28:39,090 --> 00:28:39,770
It's true.

788
00:28:40,390 --> 00:28:42,190
Or at least these podcasters.

789
00:28:42,970 --> 00:28:45,770
And I don't care how many hours of

790
00:28:45,770 --> 00:28:48,250
video Scott Horton has or how many books

791
00:28:48,250 --> 00:28:51,070
he's written about anti-war or war or

792
00:28:51,070 --> 00:28:51,930
whatever, whatever.

793
00:28:52,590 --> 00:28:54,110
But I live in the here and now.

794
00:28:56,110 --> 00:28:58,710
So it's just, you know, chill out.

795
00:28:59,410 --> 00:29:00,750
You know, you can have you.

796
00:29:00,830 --> 00:29:02,650
I'm happy you find that your opinions.

797
00:29:02,850 --> 00:29:04,310
I just have a different worldview.

798
00:29:04,930 --> 00:29:06,770
And the people get all bent out of

799
00:29:06,770 --> 00:29:10,950
shape and all they've got is a fanboy

800
00:29:10,950 --> 00:29:11,850
shekels.

801
00:29:12,310 --> 00:29:13,150
Come on.

802
00:29:14,370 --> 00:29:17,350
It's just wait until they hear that we're

803
00:29:17,350 --> 00:29:19,170
doing an Israel trip in March.

804
00:29:20,930 --> 00:29:22,210
They'll really flip out.

805
00:29:22,210 --> 00:29:23,530
I'm going to do a show from Israel.

806
00:29:23,790 --> 00:29:27,970
I hope they get good connectivity there.

807
00:29:28,490 --> 00:29:29,410
Oh, yeah, I do.

808
00:29:31,830 --> 00:29:36,450
So regarding ice, I know I always get

809
00:29:36,450 --> 00:29:37,770
your clips early in the morning.

810
00:29:37,850 --> 00:29:40,690
So I had some of my own analysis.

811
00:29:40,710 --> 00:29:42,450
But I think we should start with stuff

812
00:29:42,450 --> 00:29:44,230
you have because you've got stuff.

813
00:29:44,810 --> 00:29:45,350
What do I do?

814
00:29:45,710 --> 00:29:46,150
Minnesota.

815
00:29:47,310 --> 00:29:48,550
Oh, yeah, I do have a bunch of

816
00:29:48,550 --> 00:29:51,310
Minnesota because once again, we're all actually I'll

817
00:29:51,310 --> 00:29:52,410
kick it off with one thing.

818
00:29:52,410 --> 00:29:53,330
I'll just kick it off.

819
00:29:53,630 --> 00:29:55,090
Where is it?

820
00:29:55,150 --> 00:29:55,990
We're all Zapruder.

821
00:29:56,210 --> 00:29:58,370
Once again, we're all Zapruder, everybody.

822
00:29:58,710 --> 00:29:58,850
Yep.

823
00:29:58,890 --> 00:29:59,250
Yep.

824
00:29:59,250 --> 00:29:59,550
Yep.

825
00:29:59,550 --> 00:29:59,730
Yep.

826
00:29:59,730 --> 00:29:59,950
Yep.

827
00:29:59,970 --> 00:30:00,530
Here we go.

828
00:30:00,670 --> 00:30:01,310
Aaron Burnett.

829
00:30:01,890 --> 00:30:03,010
What do you see in all of this

830
00:30:03,010 --> 00:30:04,970
so far from the information that we have

831
00:30:04,970 --> 00:30:06,930
from the video you've watched from the responses

832
00:30:06,930 --> 00:30:09,250
we've gotten from DHS and from Mr. Bovino?

833
00:30:09,810 --> 00:30:11,330
Well, I mean, obviously, Aaron, at the core

834
00:30:11,330 --> 00:30:13,610
of it, you have an unbelievable tragedy where

835
00:30:13,610 --> 00:30:18,550
it appears that a potentially unarmed person was

836
00:30:18,550 --> 00:30:23,970
essentially assassinated by horrible law enforcement tactics.

837
00:30:24,430 --> 00:30:24,730
Horrible.

838
00:30:24,870 --> 00:30:26,970
Dramatically escalated the situation.

839
00:30:27,210 --> 00:30:29,590
But, you know, they're just there are so

840
00:30:29,590 --> 00:30:32,170
many questions here at the at the absolute

841
00:30:32,170 --> 00:30:37,070
core of lethal force training in the FBI

842
00:30:37,070 --> 00:30:37,630
Academy.

843
00:30:37,970 --> 00:30:39,390
This is Andrew McCabe, by the way.

844
00:30:39,810 --> 00:30:43,110
At this horrible Trump hater.

845
00:30:43,230 --> 00:30:43,490
Yeah.

846
00:30:43,770 --> 00:30:45,070
He's anti-American.

847
00:30:45,150 --> 00:30:46,390
He's a terrible person.

848
00:30:46,470 --> 00:30:47,910
Why would anyone even put him on a

849
00:30:47,910 --> 00:30:48,250
show?

850
00:30:48,570 --> 00:30:49,810
He's disgraced.

851
00:30:49,810 --> 00:30:50,950
CNN, baby.

852
00:30:51,230 --> 00:30:55,310
Lethal force training in the FBI Academy at

853
00:30:55,310 --> 00:30:57,150
in the Academy at Glencoe, Georgia.

854
00:30:57,310 --> 00:30:59,610
Did you hear the potentially unarmed piece there?

855
00:31:00,470 --> 00:31:01,410
I heard that.

856
00:31:01,610 --> 00:31:03,290
You mean the guy with the nine millimeter?

857
00:31:04,070 --> 00:31:05,170
You talking about that guy?

858
00:31:05,890 --> 00:31:07,750
Border Patrol folks go through.

859
00:31:08,170 --> 00:31:10,310
You are taught from the very beginning that

860
00:31:10,310 --> 00:31:12,930
if you are in if you use your

861
00:31:12,930 --> 00:31:15,290
weapon, you have to be able to, after

862
00:31:15,290 --> 00:31:19,730
the fact, articulate exactly why you perceived an

863
00:31:19,730 --> 00:31:23,410
imminent threat of death or serious bodily injury.

864
00:31:23,770 --> 00:31:25,790
And so the question now is, when are

865
00:31:25,790 --> 00:31:28,110
we going to hear that articulation?

866
00:31:28,410 --> 00:31:31,390
What is the reason that these officers or

867
00:31:31,390 --> 00:31:32,290
a single officer?

868
00:31:32,390 --> 00:31:34,030
We don't know how many people shot.

869
00:31:34,210 --> 00:31:37,970
Believe they were an imminent threat of death

870
00:31:37,970 --> 00:31:40,650
by this person who was by all every

871
00:31:40,650 --> 00:31:44,290
video we've seen on the ground with anywhere

872
00:31:44,290 --> 00:31:46,470
from four to five officers on top of

873
00:31:46,470 --> 00:31:47,510
him at the same time.

874
00:31:48,090 --> 00:31:50,830
Nowhere in these videos do you see a

875
00:31:50,830 --> 00:31:53,210
weapon in this man's hand.

876
00:31:53,350 --> 00:31:55,830
So again, this is the Zapruder effect that

877
00:31:55,830 --> 00:31:57,770
we in America love so much.

878
00:31:57,870 --> 00:31:59,990
We love analyzing video.

879
00:32:00,350 --> 00:32:00,590
Yeah.

880
00:32:00,650 --> 00:32:03,410
This reminds me of the of the Jack

881
00:32:03,410 --> 00:32:06,470
my favorite, which is the Jacqueline Kennedy shot

882
00:32:06,470 --> 00:32:07,890
JFK in the head.

883
00:32:07,970 --> 00:32:08,150
Yeah.

884
00:32:08,350 --> 00:32:10,310
If you look at that film just right.

885
00:32:10,510 --> 00:32:10,650
Oh, yeah.

886
00:32:10,710 --> 00:32:12,710
The driver to shot him and everything.

887
00:32:12,710 --> 00:32:15,830
And this goes on forever and ever.

888
00:32:15,970 --> 00:32:17,150
And of course, we only have more and

889
00:32:17,150 --> 00:32:21,110
more of this with with video and video

890
00:32:21,110 --> 00:32:24,810
can be very deceptive in in on either

891
00:32:24,810 --> 00:32:25,230
side.

892
00:32:26,150 --> 00:32:28,310
Same same movie, two different screens.

893
00:32:28,330 --> 00:32:29,870
You can look at something one way and

894
00:32:29,870 --> 00:32:31,770
get get something out of it.

895
00:32:31,770 --> 00:32:34,350
And but it's red meat for the M5M

896
00:32:34,350 --> 00:32:37,350
and for podcasters, apparently, because this is all

897
00:32:37,350 --> 00:32:38,110
we can talk about.

898
00:32:38,590 --> 00:32:40,370
I mean, it's no different from Charlie Kirk.

899
00:32:40,370 --> 00:32:42,810
What, 30 out six was from above below.

900
00:32:43,090 --> 00:32:44,310
Was it his microphone explode?

901
00:32:44,610 --> 00:32:45,490
This will go on.

902
00:32:45,810 --> 00:32:47,790
And I find it tedious and boring.

903
00:32:47,970 --> 00:32:50,650
I mean, obviously, we've got didn't find it

904
00:32:50,650 --> 00:32:51,130
so tedious.

905
00:32:51,250 --> 00:32:53,910
You didn't want to record that particular moment.

906
00:32:55,050 --> 00:32:56,950
Well, no, I do that for effect.

907
00:32:57,050 --> 00:32:59,030
I am a show business person after all.

908
00:32:59,110 --> 00:32:59,590
Come on.

909
00:33:00,990 --> 00:33:01,590
All right.

910
00:33:01,650 --> 00:33:03,550
But I have some thoughts on the whole

911
00:33:03,550 --> 00:33:04,850
thing, but I'd like to like you to

912
00:33:04,850 --> 00:33:05,150
do your.

913
00:33:05,330 --> 00:33:06,730
OK, I'm sure you have some thoughts on

914
00:33:06,730 --> 00:33:07,110
the whole thing.

915
00:33:07,110 --> 00:33:08,690
So let's play these Minnesota shooting.

916
00:33:08,690 --> 00:33:10,550
Now, I had two versions of this.

917
00:33:10,630 --> 00:33:12,370
I had the short one, which I want

918
00:33:12,370 --> 00:33:12,790
to play.

919
00:33:12,990 --> 00:33:15,290
The short one is all from NPR.

920
00:33:15,630 --> 00:33:17,490
The short one, because there's a little tidbit

921
00:33:17,490 --> 00:33:20,210
in here that I thought was funny, which

922
00:33:20,210 --> 00:33:21,950
is not mentioned at all in the long

923
00:33:21,950 --> 00:33:26,570
form, which which is new MN shooter NPR.

924
00:33:26,570 --> 00:33:30,130
Minnesota officials identified the person shot and killed

925
00:33:30,130 --> 00:33:33,290
today in Minneapolis as Alex Jeffrey Pretty.

926
00:33:33,750 --> 00:33:36,510
As NPR's Meg Anderson reports, he was the

927
00:33:36,510 --> 00:33:39,970
second person killed by federal immigration agents in

928
00:33:39,970 --> 00:33:41,290
less than three weeks.

929
00:33:42,090 --> 00:33:44,110
In a news conference with city officials, U

930
00:33:44,110 --> 00:33:46,630
.S. senators Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith named

931
00:33:46,630 --> 00:33:48,010
Pretty as the shooting victim.

932
00:33:48,570 --> 00:33:50,330
They said Pretty was a 37 year old

933
00:33:50,330 --> 00:33:52,530
ICU nurse, a U.S. citizen and a

934
00:33:52,530 --> 00:33:53,410
Minneapolis resident.

935
00:33:53,410 --> 00:33:54,790
U.S. Senator Tina Smith.

936
00:33:55,010 --> 00:33:58,990
The Trump administration has already called Alex Pretty

937
00:33:58,990 --> 00:34:00,530
a domestic terrorist.

938
00:34:01,770 --> 00:34:03,310
He was a nurse.

939
00:34:03,590 --> 00:34:05,270
She stressed that if this can happen in

940
00:34:05,270 --> 00:34:07,409
Minnesota, it can happen in any community in

941
00:34:07,409 --> 00:34:07,850
the country.

942
00:34:08,550 --> 00:34:10,370
In the aftermath of the shooting, Mayor Jacob

943
00:34:10,370 --> 00:34:13,270
Frye requested that the governor deploy National Guard

944
00:34:13,270 --> 00:34:15,770
members to support Minneapolis police officers.

945
00:34:16,350 --> 00:34:18,449
Guard members will wear yellow safety vests to

946
00:34:18,449 --> 00:34:21,070
distinguish them from other entities on the ground.

947
00:34:21,070 --> 00:34:21,929
OK.

948
00:34:23,730 --> 00:34:23,989
Yes.

949
00:34:24,130 --> 00:34:26,530
So the yellow safety vest got my attention.

950
00:34:27,210 --> 00:34:27,530
Oh, yeah.

951
00:34:27,630 --> 00:34:28,590
This is people.

952
00:34:28,750 --> 00:34:31,350
Those people are directing traffic.

953
00:34:32,190 --> 00:34:34,090
So you're going to have the yellow safety

954
00:34:34,090 --> 00:34:37,969
vests, which is just going to cause nothing

955
00:34:37,969 --> 00:34:39,110
but yellow.

956
00:34:39,110 --> 00:34:45,790
Yellow safety vest is, in my opinion, seeing

957
00:34:45,790 --> 00:34:50,250
that most of these protests are organized operations,

958
00:34:50,710 --> 00:34:52,030
maybe by civilians.

959
00:34:52,570 --> 00:34:55,909
But that's that's someone who's a key figure.

960
00:34:56,150 --> 00:34:56,810
You're a leader.

961
00:34:57,350 --> 00:35:00,430
You're a you're a person who has a

962
00:35:00,430 --> 00:35:01,370
point person.

963
00:35:02,150 --> 00:35:03,950
I don't think you just put on the

964
00:35:03,950 --> 00:35:04,970
yellow safety vest.

965
00:35:05,730 --> 00:35:06,830
It's just my opinion.

966
00:35:06,910 --> 00:35:08,210
I don't know anything about this guy.

967
00:35:08,210 --> 00:35:08,790
Did he?

968
00:35:08,970 --> 00:35:09,170
Did he?

969
00:35:09,270 --> 00:35:09,530
I don't think.

970
00:35:09,670 --> 00:35:09,790
No, no.

971
00:35:09,830 --> 00:35:11,430
The yellow safety vest is what they're going

972
00:35:11,430 --> 00:35:12,950
to make the National Guard wear.

973
00:35:13,750 --> 00:35:15,130
Oh, that'll confuse everybody.

974
00:35:15,930 --> 00:35:17,350
They'll confuse the protesters.

975
00:35:19,950 --> 00:35:22,030
Well, there's also it has a bunch of

976
00:35:22,030 --> 00:35:24,310
symbolism to this yellow for one thing, which

977
00:35:24,310 --> 00:35:25,070
is a surrender.

978
00:35:25,290 --> 00:35:25,510
Yeah.

979
00:35:25,570 --> 00:35:29,510
And it's also the yellow vest movement is.

980
00:35:29,850 --> 00:35:30,290
Yes.

981
00:35:30,490 --> 00:35:32,950
Reminiscent of that little bit in France.

982
00:35:33,670 --> 00:35:36,110
And these guys are going to be like,

983
00:35:36,250 --> 00:35:38,590
if I'm a National Guard guy wearing like

984
00:35:38,590 --> 00:35:41,730
my normal, my normal fatigues, I'm going to

985
00:35:41,730 --> 00:35:43,850
look like a doofus wearing this stupid yellow

986
00:35:43,850 --> 00:35:44,310
vest.

987
00:35:44,530 --> 00:35:46,270
So, you know, the whole thing is funny.

988
00:35:46,370 --> 00:35:48,090
They left that out of the long form.

989
00:35:48,090 --> 00:35:50,010
And I thought that was kind of weird,

990
00:35:50,010 --> 00:35:51,110
weird to do.

991
00:35:51,350 --> 00:35:53,670
But OK, because the long form was on

992
00:35:53,670 --> 00:35:54,070
forever.

993
00:35:54,170 --> 00:35:57,190
Let's start with the Minnesota shooting long form.

994
00:35:57,270 --> 00:36:00,450
This is more of an analysis than the

995
00:36:00,450 --> 00:36:01,050
other report.

996
00:36:01,050 --> 00:36:04,030
For the second time this month, federal immigration

997
00:36:04,030 --> 00:36:06,650
agents in Minneapolis have shot and killed someone.

998
00:36:06,970 --> 00:36:09,230
It happened this morning outside a donut shop

999
00:36:09,230 --> 00:36:10,990
where protesters quickly gathered.

1000
00:36:16,250 --> 00:36:19,210
This latest killing has put an already tense

1001
00:36:19,210 --> 00:36:20,750
city further on edge.

1002
00:36:21,330 --> 00:36:23,970
And today, the Trump administration and local officials

1003
00:36:23,970 --> 00:36:26,530
are trading accusations about who is to blame.

1004
00:36:26,530 --> 00:36:29,370
NPR's Jennifer Ludden is in Minneapolis and has

1005
00:36:29,370 --> 00:36:30,410
been following all of this.

1006
00:36:30,730 --> 00:36:31,110
Hi, Jennifer.

1007
00:36:31,490 --> 00:36:32,230
Hi, Sarah.

1008
00:36:32,810 --> 00:36:34,810
First, Jennifer, what do we know so far

1009
00:36:34,810 --> 00:36:36,750
about what exactly happened this morning?

1010
00:36:37,710 --> 00:36:40,350
Well, the Department of Homeland Security says there

1011
00:36:40,350 --> 00:36:43,230
is an investigation with more information to come.

1012
00:36:43,510 --> 00:36:46,770
But the immigration agent commanding this operation called

1013
00:36:46,770 --> 00:36:48,190
the shooting self-defense.

1014
00:36:48,190 --> 00:36:51,590
Gregory Bovino told reporters that agents were pursuing

1015
00:36:51,590 --> 00:36:55,010
an undocumented immigrant wanted for violent assault.

1016
00:36:55,150 --> 00:36:57,770
And then another person who was armed approached

1017
00:36:57,770 --> 00:37:00,170
the officers and resisted when they tried to

1018
00:37:00,170 --> 00:37:00,930
disarm him.

1019
00:37:01,250 --> 00:37:01,890
Here's Bovino.

1020
00:37:02,610 --> 00:37:05,270
This looks like a situation where an individual

1021
00:37:05,270 --> 00:37:08,750
wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law

1022
00:37:08,750 --> 00:37:09,230
enforcement.

1023
00:37:09,690 --> 00:37:13,890
Then about 200 rioters arrived at the scene

1024
00:37:13,890 --> 00:37:17,330
and began to obstruct and assault law enforcement.

1025
00:37:17,330 --> 00:37:21,470
But there is a bystander video that shows

1026
00:37:21,470 --> 00:37:24,390
multiple federal agents, looks like at least six,

1027
00:37:24,530 --> 00:37:27,830
wrestling someone on the ground, striking him.

1028
00:37:28,030 --> 00:37:30,330
And then you hear multiple shots fired.

1029
00:37:30,330 --> 00:37:32,170
It sounds like at least 10 rounds in

1030
00:37:32,170 --> 00:37:33,110
just a few seconds.

1031
00:37:33,510 --> 00:37:35,230
And it is not clear from the video

1032
00:37:35,230 --> 00:37:37,910
if the man killed had brandished or reached

1033
00:37:37,910 --> 00:37:38,810
for any weapon.

1034
00:37:38,810 --> 00:37:41,450
Now, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara says

1035
00:37:41,450 --> 00:37:43,510
the man killed was a 37-year-old

1036
00:37:43,510 --> 00:37:46,350
white male, U.S. citizen, U.S. citizen,

1037
00:37:46,590 --> 00:37:49,370
U.S. citizen with no criminal record and

1038
00:37:49,370 --> 00:37:50,790
a lawful permit to carry a gun.

1039
00:37:51,170 --> 00:37:53,350
His family has identified him to the Associated

1040
00:37:53,350 --> 00:37:54,950
Press as Alex Preddy.

1041
00:37:55,250 --> 00:37:57,230
They say he was an intensive care nurse

1042
00:37:57,230 --> 00:37:59,370
at the VA who was upset at the

1043
00:37:59,370 --> 00:38:00,090
ICE surge here.

1044
00:38:00,250 --> 00:38:02,430
And his family says he had protested after

1045
00:38:02,430 --> 00:38:06,070
an agent fatally shot another person, Renee Good,

1046
00:38:06,410 --> 00:38:08,250
in her car earlier this month.

1047
00:38:08,250 --> 00:38:10,730
I just need to interject one quick thing

1048
00:38:10,730 --> 00:38:12,850
here because this, you won't hear this.

1049
00:38:13,070 --> 00:38:14,430
It's not discussed anywhere.

1050
00:38:14,530 --> 00:38:16,630
This is like, you know, it's like, was

1051
00:38:16,630 --> 00:38:17,510
he a bad guy?

1052
00:38:17,590 --> 00:38:18,530
Did the cops kill him?

1053
00:38:18,610 --> 00:38:19,670
This is back and forth.

1054
00:38:19,730 --> 00:38:20,210
It's endless.

1055
00:38:20,730 --> 00:38:27,210
If you physically interpose yourself with law enforcement,

1056
00:38:27,610 --> 00:38:31,170
that by itself is a federal crime.

1057
00:38:31,250 --> 00:38:31,670
Done.

1058
00:38:32,270 --> 00:38:34,390
So all bets are off at that point,

1059
00:38:34,470 --> 00:38:35,570
whether you're armed or not.

1060
00:38:35,590 --> 00:38:37,230
And I think it's bull crap that he

1061
00:38:37,230 --> 00:38:37,610
was there.

1062
00:38:37,610 --> 00:38:40,030
He was going to commit mass murder.

1063
00:38:40,150 --> 00:38:41,110
I think that's bull crap.

1064
00:38:41,530 --> 00:38:43,270
And I think it's weak on behalf of

1065
00:38:43,270 --> 00:38:46,390
Christine Noem, how she categorizes all this.

1066
00:38:46,950 --> 00:38:50,310
The fact is they were on an operation.

1067
00:38:50,910 --> 00:38:53,490
And, you know, Obama deported three million people.

1068
00:38:53,670 --> 00:38:55,010
I guess he just did it in the

1069
00:38:55,010 --> 00:38:56,050
middle of the night quietly.

1070
00:38:57,250 --> 00:38:58,590
I doubt that.

1071
00:39:00,990 --> 00:39:04,210
But there were no protests that I can

1072
00:39:04,210 --> 00:39:04,650
remember.

1073
00:39:05,350 --> 00:39:05,790
No.

1074
00:39:05,790 --> 00:39:07,950
There were only protests about kids in cages.

1075
00:39:08,190 --> 00:39:08,690
Oh, wait.

1076
00:39:08,810 --> 00:39:09,890
Yeah, that was Obama.

1077
00:39:10,010 --> 00:39:10,770
That's Obama too.

1078
00:39:10,930 --> 00:39:11,810
We got blamed for it.

1079
00:39:12,130 --> 00:39:14,630
But if you put yourself, which he did,

1080
00:39:15,510 --> 00:39:20,550
if you put yourself, you block a federal

1081
00:39:20,550 --> 00:39:22,470
agent, that is a crime.

1082
00:39:23,590 --> 00:39:25,830
Now, not a crime that an agent can

1083
00:39:25,830 --> 00:39:27,390
shoot someone over and then you go to

1084
00:39:27,390 --> 00:39:29,470
the next, you know, to the next phase

1085
00:39:29,470 --> 00:39:29,730
of it.

1086
00:39:29,790 --> 00:39:31,910
But that already is the problem right there.

1087
00:39:31,970 --> 00:39:33,710
And this comes from a different place altogether.

1088
00:39:33,710 --> 00:39:37,570
But there's just no—I've not heard anyone say

1089
00:39:37,570 --> 00:39:38,090
that at all.

1090
00:39:38,270 --> 00:39:40,710
It's somehow this— They don't want to say

1091
00:39:40,710 --> 00:39:42,690
it because it doesn't fit the narrative of

1092
00:39:42,690 --> 00:39:45,110
a bunch of nasty ICE guys.

1093
00:39:45,410 --> 00:39:45,590
Yeah.

1094
00:39:45,930 --> 00:39:47,850
That are out there trying to, you know,

1095
00:39:48,030 --> 00:39:51,630
they're trying to—one of the terms was they

1096
00:39:51,630 --> 00:39:55,450
were murdering people left and right.

1097
00:39:55,550 --> 00:39:56,750
I can't remember how it went.

1098
00:39:57,130 --> 00:40:00,550
What's amazing— Sound like they're homicidal maniacs.

1099
00:40:00,550 --> 00:40:02,490
There's more people killed in Oakland in the

1100
00:40:02,490 --> 00:40:04,570
last three weeks than there has been in

1101
00:40:04,570 --> 00:40:04,990
Minnesota.

1102
00:40:05,710 --> 00:40:09,990
What I find fascinating is the constant ongoing

1103
00:40:09,990 --> 00:40:11,990
from the M5M particularly.

1104
00:40:12,650 --> 00:40:16,330
Well, he was—he had a concealed weapon.

1105
00:40:16,510 --> 00:40:19,210
He was legally licensed to carry it.

1106
00:40:19,470 --> 00:40:21,190
This is the first time I've heard that

1107
00:40:21,190 --> 00:40:22,030
this was a good thing.

1108
00:40:22,090 --> 00:40:22,630
Oh, it's good.

1109
00:40:23,210 --> 00:40:23,610
It's good.

1110
00:40:24,270 --> 00:40:26,870
Yeah, what happened to the old anti-guns

1111
00:40:26,870 --> 00:40:27,710
narrative?

1112
00:40:27,790 --> 00:40:28,590
No, not in this case.

1113
00:40:28,590 --> 00:40:29,810
These guys can't make up their minds.

1114
00:40:29,810 --> 00:40:30,810
They're just subversive.

1115
00:40:32,050 --> 00:40:32,190
Yes.

1116
00:40:32,450 --> 00:40:34,230
The media is subversive.

1117
00:40:34,450 --> 00:40:34,810
Mm-hmm.

1118
00:40:36,990 --> 00:40:39,090
We just have to admit it.

1119
00:40:39,830 --> 00:40:40,550
All right.

1120
00:40:40,810 --> 00:40:41,350
Part two.

1121
00:40:41,530 --> 00:40:41,670
Onward.

1122
00:40:41,970 --> 00:40:45,610
Now, the Border Patrol commander mentioned, quote, rioters

1123
00:40:45,610 --> 00:40:46,330
at the scene.

1124
00:40:46,570 --> 00:40:47,730
You were at the scene.

1125
00:40:47,890 --> 00:40:49,110
What happened after the shooting?

1126
00:40:50,050 --> 00:40:52,110
Yes, an MPR producer and I went there

1127
00:40:52,110 --> 00:40:52,970
as word was spreading.

1128
00:40:53,150 --> 00:40:55,510
Lots of people were streaming in to see

1129
00:40:55,510 --> 00:40:56,410
and to protest.

1130
00:40:56,410 --> 00:40:59,730
There were dozens of people across several blocks.

1131
00:40:59,990 --> 00:41:01,550
I did not see rioting.

1132
00:41:01,950 --> 00:41:04,950
Local police officers used multiple rounds of tear

1133
00:41:04,950 --> 00:41:06,590
gas to try and disperse the crowd.

1134
00:41:06,670 --> 00:41:07,970
They say, look, it's a crime scene.

1135
00:41:08,530 --> 00:41:10,630
Now, Linda Gottlieb was among those there.

1136
00:41:10,950 --> 00:41:12,390
She was standing a few feet from a

1137
00:41:12,390 --> 00:41:14,810
line of local police officers in full face

1138
00:41:14,810 --> 00:41:15,970
masks and riot gear.

1139
00:41:16,170 --> 00:41:18,750
She's a health care worker and is frustrated

1140
00:41:18,750 --> 00:41:21,790
and upset about this weeks-long federal surge.

1141
00:41:22,010 --> 00:41:23,710
They're trying to have the narrative be that

1142
00:41:23,710 --> 00:41:25,210
the people are the aggressors.

1143
00:41:25,210 --> 00:41:27,650
But we have seen on video and we've

1144
00:41:27,650 --> 00:41:30,590
heard people testify to the fact that, no,

1145
00:41:30,670 --> 00:41:33,030
they are being illegally detained and assaulted and

1146
00:41:33,030 --> 00:41:33,950
sustaining injuries.

1147
00:41:33,950 --> 00:41:36,510
And this is absolutely counter to everything our

1148
00:41:36,510 --> 00:41:37,610
country stands for.

1149
00:41:37,870 --> 00:41:40,590
Our country stands for the First Amendment, which

1150
00:41:40,590 --> 00:41:44,690
is the right to peaceably assemble, which, by

1151
00:41:44,690 --> 00:41:48,450
the way, in constitutional law, even local government

1152
00:41:48,450 --> 00:41:50,990
can determine where and at what time.

1153
00:41:51,590 --> 00:41:54,190
Peaceably assembling is not walking around in the

1154
00:41:54,190 --> 00:41:57,690
streets and blowing air horns and whistles and

1155
00:41:57,690 --> 00:41:58,650
throwing stuff at them.

1156
00:41:58,710 --> 00:41:59,410
It's just not.

1157
00:42:00,110 --> 00:42:02,070
I'll add that just yesterday there were thousands

1158
00:42:02,070 --> 00:42:04,830
of people filling downtown streets here in a

1159
00:42:04,830 --> 00:42:08,570
very peaceful rally, demanding that some 3,000

1160
00:42:08,570 --> 00:42:10,950
federal immigration agents leave their city.

1161
00:42:11,630 --> 00:42:13,690
Now, Jennifer, the Trump administration has been quick

1162
00:42:13,690 --> 00:42:15,710
to denounce the man who was killed, calling

1163
00:42:15,710 --> 00:42:18,350
him a, quote, domestic terrorist, blaming the shooting

1164
00:42:18,350 --> 00:42:19,650
on local and state officials.

1165
00:42:19,650 --> 00:42:21,890
What are those Minnesota officials saying?

1166
00:42:22,450 --> 00:42:24,970
You know, we've heard outrage and frustration from

1167
00:42:24,970 --> 00:42:25,250
them.

1168
00:42:25,390 --> 00:42:27,610
Governor Tim Walz says the federal government cannot

1169
00:42:27,610 --> 00:42:29,410
be trusted to handle the investigation.

1170
00:42:29,890 --> 00:42:32,510
The State Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says DHS

1171
00:42:32,510 --> 00:42:34,830
is blocking its investigators from the scene.

1172
00:42:35,250 --> 00:42:37,590
And remember, DHS said it's not even investigating

1173
00:42:37,590 --> 00:42:39,710
the agent who shot and killed Renee Good

1174
00:42:39,710 --> 00:42:40,110
earlier.

1175
00:42:40,550 --> 00:42:41,690
Here's Governor Walz today.

1176
00:42:42,190 --> 00:42:43,830
We continue to hear and we heard it

1177
00:42:43,830 --> 00:42:46,370
from the vice president that these folks can

1178
00:42:46,370 --> 00:42:47,190
do whatever they want.

1179
00:42:47,290 --> 00:42:48,230
They can have full immunity.

1180
00:42:48,230 --> 00:42:49,790
And what I'm telling you is they will

1181
00:42:49,790 --> 00:42:50,130
not.

1182
00:42:50,310 --> 00:42:52,010
There will be justice to Minnesotans.

1183
00:42:52,530 --> 00:42:54,810
Now, it seems like you're allowing your peaceably

1184
00:42:54,810 --> 00:42:58,450
assembled constituents do whatever they want.

1185
00:43:01,820 --> 00:43:02,080
Yeah.

1186
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,480
This is so good for Walz.

1187
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:05,500
So good for him.

1188
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:07,280
Wow.

1189
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:09,520
It's almost a godsend for him.

1190
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:09,980
For now.

1191
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:11,180
For now.

1192
00:43:11,540 --> 00:43:13,400
They have to, that guy should be arrested.

1193
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:15,200
Probably.

1194
00:43:15,740 --> 00:43:17,200
They haven't arrested anybody.

1195
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,340
I mean, they just don't, like this church

1196
00:43:20,340 --> 00:43:22,100
thing with the Don Lemon thing, which I

1197
00:43:22,100 --> 00:43:23,260
have some thoughts on, by the way.

1198
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:24,800
I know you have some thoughts on it.

1199
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,880
I do have a completely different thesis than

1200
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:29,660
everybody else.

1201
00:43:29,980 --> 00:43:33,120
But the, it's like the Don Lemon thing.

1202
00:43:33,260 --> 00:43:36,340
Okay, so they arrested three people, the ringleaders,

1203
00:43:36,460 --> 00:43:37,000
basically.

1204
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:39,360
And there was another 20 or 30 people.

1205
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:40,480
Why aren't they getting arrested?

1206
00:43:40,720 --> 00:43:43,340
It was the same violation of the FACE

1207
00:43:43,340 --> 00:43:43,700
Act.

1208
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:45,920
Why don't they pick them all up?

1209
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:47,840
The funny thing about the FACE Act is

1210
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,640
it was written initially to keep church people

1211
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,220
away from abortion clinics.

1212
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:55,840
It's amazing to see this flip-flop then

1213
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,920
used by the church people on the abortion

1214
00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:58,620
crazies.

1215
00:43:58,900 --> 00:44:00,760
Well, the funny thing is about that FACE

1216
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,300
Act, when it was proposed by the Democrats,

1217
00:44:04,860 --> 00:44:06,720
the Republicans thought it was a bit much.

1218
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:07,760
It was so lopsided.

1219
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:11,140
And so the Democrats agreed to allow the

1220
00:44:11,140 --> 00:44:15,960
mention of churches in the act as a

1221
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:16,840
quid pro quo.

1222
00:44:16,940 --> 00:44:18,920
Okay, we'll give you the abortion clinics.

1223
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:20,240
You've got to give us the churches.

1224
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,560
And so it went through that way.

1225
00:44:22,660 --> 00:44:25,320
And now it's being turned on its head.

1226
00:44:25,700 --> 00:44:27,980
But that's still beside the point.

1227
00:44:28,100 --> 00:44:29,480
Where's the other arrests?

1228
00:44:30,580 --> 00:44:32,720
Oh, I'm in complete agreement with you.

1229
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:33,660
It's trespassing.

1230
00:44:33,820 --> 00:44:35,480
They should be arrested for trespassing.

1231
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,780
They should be arrested for the FACE Act,

1232
00:44:38,060 --> 00:44:40,480
which is a lot stronger than trespassing.

1233
00:44:40,700 --> 00:44:42,580
I'm just saying, at minimum, is what I

1234
00:44:42,580 --> 00:44:43,760
said, for trespassing.

1235
00:44:45,420 --> 00:44:46,180
I don't know.

1236
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:47,340
I don't know.

1237
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,800
I mean, they're too busy doing other stuff.

1238
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:51,820
There's very busy days.

1239
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,020
They're too busy not arresting people.

1240
00:44:55,660 --> 00:44:56,160
Oh, can we?

1241
00:44:56,260 --> 00:44:57,700
No, they're not going to arrest him either.

1242
00:44:58,220 --> 00:45:01,500
So let's, was that the third clip?

1243
00:45:01,500 --> 00:45:02,200
No, that was the second.

1244
00:45:02,420 --> 00:45:03,480
No, the third one is short.

1245
00:45:03,540 --> 00:45:04,960
Is that some kind of kicker?

1246
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:05,980
A little kicker.

1247
00:45:06,660 --> 00:45:08,440
Walz says the state is creating a log

1248
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,340
of evidence for possible future prosecution of immigration

1249
00:45:11,340 --> 00:45:11,800
agents.

1250
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,180
And how worried, quickly, are people about things

1251
00:45:14,180 --> 00:45:14,700
escalating?

1252
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:16,180
You know, there's concern.

1253
00:45:16,420 --> 00:45:19,320
Governor Walz has activated the Minnesota National Guard

1254
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:20,960
to help local police with protests.

1255
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:23,660
Meanwhile, President Trump has accused him and the

1256
00:45:23,660 --> 00:45:25,400
mayor of inciting insurrection.

1257
00:45:25,780 --> 00:45:28,400
That's meaningful because he's repeatedly threatened to invoke

1258
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,600
the Insurrection Act and has put about 2

1259
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:33,440
,000 active duty military soldiers on standby for

1260
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:35,200
possible deployment to Minnesota.

1261
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:37,320
NPR's Jennifer Ludden, thank you.

1262
00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:39,620
And I think this is really what they

1263
00:45:39,620 --> 00:45:39,960
want.

1264
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,740
They really want Trump to deploy National Guard

1265
00:45:42,740 --> 00:45:45,720
or federal troops or whatever it is.

1266
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,740
They want to have militarization so that they

1267
00:45:48,740 --> 00:45:52,260
can really go into the 2026 election with

1268
00:45:52,260 --> 00:45:52,960
their message.

1269
00:45:53,540 --> 00:45:54,020
Right.

1270
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:56,500
One of our producers.

1271
00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,780
Which is why they should start arresting people

1272
00:45:59,780 --> 00:46:01,160
because they're not going to win the 26

1273
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:02,200
elections anyway.

1274
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,080
One of our producers, David Atima, I think

1275
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:06,560
he's a knight.

1276
00:46:07,300 --> 00:46:10,640
He had a very good catch from episode

1277
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:11,800
1836.

1278
00:46:12,720 --> 00:46:14,820
Funny enough, one of your clips, the David

1279
00:46:14,820 --> 00:46:17,740
Brooks clip, regarding Minnesota.

1280
00:46:18,380 --> 00:46:20,700
And listen to what David Brooks said in

1281
00:46:20,700 --> 00:46:21,900
that clip, which I don't know.

1282
00:46:21,900 --> 00:46:23,900
I don't think either of us, we didn't

1283
00:46:23,900 --> 00:46:24,420
discuss it.

1284
00:46:24,540 --> 00:46:26,720
I certainly didn't catch it first go around.

1285
00:46:26,980 --> 00:46:30,000
And I've long thought if Americans see deportations

1286
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:34,640
of respectable families, they will finally rebel against

1287
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:35,120
this regime.

1288
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:37,280
And not just the progressives and not just

1289
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,740
Democrats, but normal people who are like, what

1290
00:46:39,740 --> 00:46:41,020
the heck is going on here?

1291
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,840
Not just liberals and Democrats, but normal people.

1292
00:46:46,260 --> 00:46:48,940
I thought that was an outstanding catch.

1293
00:46:49,700 --> 00:46:50,220
Wow.

1294
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:52,020
Yes, that's a 10 pointer.

1295
00:46:52,260 --> 00:46:53,960
That's a slam dunk.

1296
00:46:54,380 --> 00:46:55,740
That's a game winner.

1297
00:46:57,260 --> 00:46:59,120
That is a terrific catch.

1298
00:46:59,720 --> 00:47:01,400
How did we miss that?

1299
00:47:01,540 --> 00:47:04,200
I think it's because we both heard regime

1300
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,920
and we're like, oh, yeah, we're focused on

1301
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:07,420
the regime.

1302
00:47:07,620 --> 00:47:08,020
Let's listen.

1303
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:11,280
And this, again, is why video is destructive

1304
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:12,160
to analysis.

1305
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:15,480
And I've long thought if Americans see deportations

1306
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:20,120
of respectable families, they will finally rebel against

1307
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:20,580
this regime.

1308
00:47:20,620 --> 00:47:22,740
And not just the progressives and not just

1309
00:47:22,740 --> 00:47:25,160
Democrats, but normal people who are like, what

1310
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:26,480
the heck is going on here?

1311
00:47:26,940 --> 00:47:31,420
Normal people, normal people, not the crazy progressives.

1312
00:47:32,820 --> 00:47:33,340
Wow.

1313
00:47:34,580 --> 00:47:36,900
So allow me to play a few clips

1314
00:47:36,900 --> 00:47:37,140
here.

1315
00:47:37,140 --> 00:47:41,500
The first one, another great observation.

1316
00:47:42,780 --> 00:47:45,180
And this does come from black tick tock,

1317
00:47:45,300 --> 00:47:47,700
but it's it's not your typical tick tock

1318
00:47:47,700 --> 00:47:48,080
video.

1319
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,120
It is an in-car recorded video.

1320
00:47:50,220 --> 00:47:51,420
So, you know, it's official.

1321
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:54,340
An excellent point here.

1322
00:47:54,700 --> 00:47:55,660
You know why you're not seeing a lot

1323
00:47:55,660 --> 00:47:57,680
of black people out there protesting against ICE?

1324
00:47:57,900 --> 00:47:59,680
You know why you're seeing predominantly white people

1325
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:00,640
only at these events?

1326
00:48:00,720 --> 00:48:03,520
It's because back in 2020, the Democrats utilized

1327
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:05,520
the black demographic to go out and riot

1328
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:06,280
and act a fool.

1329
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:07,740
And they said, oh, if you just elect

1330
00:48:07,740 --> 00:48:10,580
us, we'll give you reparations and we'll force

1331
00:48:10,580 --> 00:48:12,820
the police to wear body cameras and all

1332
00:48:12,820 --> 00:48:14,400
these wonderful, amazing things.

1333
00:48:14,540 --> 00:48:14,660
Right.

1334
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,060
So black people showed up like we are

1335
00:48:17,060 --> 00:48:17,580
known to do.

1336
00:48:17,660 --> 00:48:19,200
And we voted up and down for one

1337
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:19,840
side of the aisle.

1338
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:20,680
And what do we get for it?

1339
00:48:20,820 --> 00:48:22,640
Nothing, as usual, because many of us never

1340
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:22,940
learn.

1341
00:48:23,060 --> 00:48:26,340
But now here in 2026, we're seeing individuals

1342
00:48:26,340 --> 00:48:28,560
who were slavishly devoted to the Democrat Party.

1343
00:48:28,620 --> 00:48:30,720
Now they're seeing the Democrats over their entire

1344
00:48:30,720 --> 00:48:32,280
four years in office under Joe Biden.

1345
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,400
They went out of their way to ingratiate

1346
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:35,660
themselves to illegal immigrants.

1347
00:48:35,660 --> 00:48:38,440
And they sometimes prioritized illegal immigrants, even in

1348
00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:40,680
black communities, ahead of black American citizens.

1349
00:48:40,780 --> 00:48:42,020
And black people are sitting there saying, wait,

1350
00:48:42,060 --> 00:48:43,480
you said you're going to give us reparations,

1351
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:44,720
you're going to give us X, Y and

1352
00:48:44,720 --> 00:48:44,860
Z.

1353
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:46,260
We got nothing for it.

1354
00:48:46,300 --> 00:48:47,500
So the silver lining is a lot of

1355
00:48:47,500 --> 00:48:49,460
people are waking up and realizing the Democrats

1356
00:48:49,460 --> 00:48:52,240
are only courting their next prospective voting bloc.

1357
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,500
They want to exploit illegal immigrants for an

1358
00:48:54,500 --> 00:48:56,640
entire generation, much like they exploited the black

1359
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:58,580
community for the previous several generations.

1360
00:48:58,860 --> 00:49:00,240
And they're daring you to call them out

1361
00:49:00,240 --> 00:49:01,520
on that and see it for what it

1362
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:01,720
is.

1363
00:49:01,720 --> 00:49:03,580
So if you're wondering why you only see

1364
00:49:03,580 --> 00:49:06,400
predominantly white liberals out here acting a fool,

1365
00:49:06,500 --> 00:49:08,920
rioting and protesting against ICE, it's because ICE

1366
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:11,100
is threatening their ability to cater to that

1367
00:49:11,100 --> 00:49:13,820
next demographic that they desperately want to lock

1368
00:49:13,820 --> 00:49:15,020
in for an entire generation.

1369
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:18,940
Exactly, exactly what's going on here.

1370
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,340
Dead people be damned.

1371
00:49:21,580 --> 00:49:22,720
They do not care.

1372
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:24,960
You know, I went back and I looked

1373
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:26,940
up the Iliad because we were laughing about

1374
00:49:26,940 --> 00:49:27,080
it.

1375
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,320
So just to reiterate, Iliad Gonzales, this is

1376
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:33,160
1999.

1377
00:49:35,260 --> 00:49:36,920
There's a front page everywhere.

1378
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,140
Before smartphones and people were still blogging.

1379
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,780
We didn't have the social media, barely blogging,

1380
00:49:43,860 --> 00:49:45,020
I might say.

1381
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:47,060
What kind of blogs were there at the

1382
00:49:47,060 --> 00:49:47,300
time?

1383
00:49:47,460 --> 00:49:48,440
Was Blogger a thing?

1384
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:49,420
It was the early blogs.

1385
00:49:49,620 --> 00:49:50,960
Blogger was out there.

1386
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:51,940
Yeah, Blogger.

1387
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:53,420
And a couple of these systems.

1388
00:49:53,420 --> 00:49:57,140
And splashed across the front pages of all

1389
00:49:57,140 --> 00:49:57,680
newspapers.

1390
00:49:57,980 --> 00:49:58,640
You go look it up.

1391
00:49:58,740 --> 00:50:00,600
Iliad Gonzales, this five-year-old kid.

1392
00:50:01,060 --> 00:50:03,220
And there is what we would today call,

1393
00:50:03,380 --> 00:50:06,120
it didn't exist then, an ICE agent with

1394
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:09,500
a submachine gun sticking in this five-year

1395
00:50:09,500 --> 00:50:10,360
-old kid's face.

1396
00:50:10,500 --> 00:50:12,220
His eyes are bugged out wide.

1397
00:50:12,860 --> 00:50:13,400
Yeah, it's great.

1398
00:50:13,700 --> 00:50:15,540
I mean, it was just outrageous.

1399
00:50:17,220 --> 00:50:18,700
I looked this up.

1400
00:50:18,700 --> 00:50:24,260
What happened was, this was the big election

1401
00:50:24,260 --> 00:50:26,800
between Bush and Gore.

1402
00:50:27,540 --> 00:50:31,240
And they wanted to get the Cuban-American

1403
00:50:31,240 --> 00:50:32,340
voting bloc.

1404
00:50:36,530 --> 00:50:38,810
And so this was, this happened.

1405
00:50:38,810 --> 00:50:39,830
The Republicans did.

1406
00:50:39,850 --> 00:50:41,230
Oh, yeah, the Republicans.

1407
00:50:41,870 --> 00:50:42,290
Exactly.

1408
00:50:43,090 --> 00:50:45,150
This was right before the election.

1409
00:50:45,150 --> 00:50:48,890
All these things, it always happens when it's

1410
00:50:48,890 --> 00:50:49,390
elections.

1411
00:50:50,590 --> 00:50:52,410
And then you just want to make one

1412
00:50:52,410 --> 00:50:54,410
side or the other look bad.

1413
00:50:54,750 --> 00:50:56,150
And if it can get a five-year

1414
00:50:56,150 --> 00:50:58,510
-old kid, like we've seen this kid with

1415
00:50:58,510 --> 00:50:59,550
a little rabbit hat.

1416
00:50:59,650 --> 00:51:01,050
I mean, it's heartbreaking, of course.

1417
00:51:01,210 --> 00:51:02,490
It's a heartbreaker, yeah.

1418
00:51:02,530 --> 00:51:03,870
It's a total heartbreaker.

1419
00:51:04,010 --> 00:51:04,650
You're looking at this.

1420
00:51:05,110 --> 00:51:05,910
Poor little kid.

1421
00:51:06,230 --> 00:51:07,930
Yes, of course it's horrible.

1422
00:51:08,350 --> 00:51:10,670
It is meant to tug at the heartstrings

1423
00:51:10,670 --> 00:51:13,190
and think the other side is evil.

1424
00:51:13,190 --> 00:51:17,650
But we can't blame ICE or the protesters

1425
00:51:17,650 --> 00:51:20,270
because what's really happened here is you have

1426
00:51:20,270 --> 00:51:21,310
two things.

1427
00:51:21,450 --> 00:51:25,150
You have people obstructing law enforcement.

1428
00:51:25,750 --> 00:51:28,390
And then you have the local officials, the

1429
00:51:28,390 --> 00:51:30,410
local leaders, I just say the blind leading

1430
00:51:30,410 --> 00:51:33,750
the blind, telling them to get out on

1431
00:51:33,750 --> 00:51:34,190
the street.

1432
00:51:34,350 --> 00:51:36,030
Put your body on the line.

1433
00:51:36,030 --> 00:51:41,170
And continuously making this law enforcement, what truly

1434
00:51:41,170 --> 00:51:43,630
is law enforcement, but it turns into a

1435
00:51:43,630 --> 00:51:47,030
complete mayhem when people are told go out

1436
00:51:47,030 --> 00:51:50,490
and protest against them.

1437
00:51:50,990 --> 00:51:52,630
Let's look at the core issue.

1438
00:51:52,710 --> 00:51:54,730
The core issue is lost in this.

1439
00:51:55,190 --> 00:51:57,150
And I did just a little mini supercut

1440
00:51:57,150 --> 00:51:59,990
because we have been told what is happening

1441
00:51:59,990 --> 00:52:02,430
over and over and over again.

1442
00:52:02,430 --> 00:52:06,170
And I think because our president usually speaks

1443
00:52:06,170 --> 00:52:10,250
in some parables that we can't even decipher.

1444
00:52:11,270 --> 00:52:12,370
Although it's true.

1445
00:52:12,630 --> 00:52:14,310
And sometimes like what is the guy trying

1446
00:52:14,310 --> 00:52:15,130
to tell me here?

1447
00:52:15,670 --> 00:52:18,090
But this is what he has said for

1448
00:52:18,090 --> 00:52:21,450
the past 10 years as a candidate and

1449
00:52:21,450 --> 00:52:21,970
as president.

1450
00:52:21,970 --> 00:52:28,090
Nearly 180,000 illegal immigrants with criminal records

1451
00:52:28,090 --> 00:52:32,370
ordered deported from our country are tonight roaming

1452
00:52:32,370 --> 00:52:36,110
free to threaten peaceful citizens.

1453
00:52:36,730 --> 00:52:39,950
They are being released by the tens of

1454
00:52:39,950 --> 00:52:44,010
thousands into our communities with no regard for

1455
00:52:44,010 --> 00:52:47,070
the impact on public safety or resources.

1456
00:52:47,390 --> 00:52:49,730
They're poisoning the blood of our country.

1457
00:52:49,730 --> 00:52:50,670
That's what they've done.

1458
00:52:50,810 --> 00:52:54,510
They poison mental institutions and prisons all over

1459
00:52:54,510 --> 00:52:54,970
the world.

1460
00:52:55,050 --> 00:52:57,130
Not just in South America, not just the

1461
00:52:57,130 --> 00:52:59,030
three or four countries that we think about,

1462
00:52:59,350 --> 00:53:00,630
but all over the world.

1463
00:53:00,690 --> 00:53:04,070
They're coming into our country from Africa, from

1464
00:53:04,070 --> 00:53:05,710
Asia, all over the world.

1465
00:53:05,750 --> 00:53:06,930
They're pouring into our country.

1466
00:53:07,030 --> 00:53:08,410
Nobody's even looking at them.

1467
00:53:08,470 --> 00:53:09,210
They just come in.

1468
00:53:09,210 --> 00:53:12,050
As I've said many times, the Maduro regime

1469
00:53:12,050 --> 00:53:15,150
emptied out their prisons, sent their worst and

1470
00:53:15,150 --> 00:53:18,450
most violent monsters into the United States to

1471
00:53:18,450 --> 00:53:19,670
steal American lives.

1472
00:53:20,730 --> 00:53:24,490
And they came from mental institutions and insane

1473
00:53:24,490 --> 00:53:25,070
asylums.

1474
00:53:25,250 --> 00:53:27,390
They came from prisons and jails.

1475
00:53:27,630 --> 00:53:29,410
They sent from their mental institutions.

1476
00:53:29,530 --> 00:53:31,150
They sent from their jails, prisons.

1477
00:53:31,530 --> 00:53:32,710
They were drug dealers.

1478
00:53:33,130 --> 00:53:34,690
They were drug kingpins.

1479
00:53:34,770 --> 00:53:37,630
They sent everybody bad into the United States.

1480
00:53:37,630 --> 00:53:40,470
We will begin removing the more than two

1481
00:53:40,470 --> 00:53:43,890
million criminal illegal immigrants from the country.

1482
00:53:44,010 --> 00:53:47,690
Deport all criminal aliens and dismantle every last

1483
00:53:47,690 --> 00:53:51,570
criminal gang and cartel threatening our citizens.

1484
00:53:51,930 --> 00:53:55,510
Drug dealers, gang heads, gang members.

1485
00:53:55,870 --> 00:53:57,690
Right, so right away in the troll room,

1486
00:53:57,810 --> 00:53:59,890
Trump is a dog whistling piece of shit.

1487
00:54:00,070 --> 00:54:04,110
Okay, exactly, because his parables are not understood.

1488
00:54:04,110 --> 00:54:07,990
I came across an interview with Peter Schweitzer.

1489
00:54:08,130 --> 00:54:09,370
He has a new book out.

1490
00:54:10,170 --> 00:54:13,330
Peter Schweitzer we know from Clinton Cash, which

1491
00:54:13,330 --> 00:54:14,830
I know I read.

1492
00:54:14,890 --> 00:54:16,790
You might have read it too, which was

1493
00:54:16,790 --> 00:54:19,550
really good, very detailed.

1494
00:54:20,110 --> 00:54:21,910
He's written a number of these books.

1495
00:54:22,490 --> 00:54:26,930
I'm pretty sure he's a spook or was,

1496
00:54:27,030 --> 00:54:30,290
you know, George Washington University, Young America Foundation.

1497
00:54:30,290 --> 00:54:32,690
The kind of information he has is kind

1498
00:54:32,690 --> 00:54:34,710
of spook-adjacent.

1499
00:54:35,070 --> 00:54:38,330
St. Cross College, this is a spook school.

1500
00:54:39,070 --> 00:54:41,530
So I'm pretty sure he's a spook or

1501
00:54:41,530 --> 00:54:44,990
former spook or spook-adjacent, but he does

1502
00:54:44,990 --> 00:54:45,510
have information.

1503
00:54:45,970 --> 00:54:48,910
And he's written this new book called, titled

1504
00:54:48,910 --> 00:54:50,190
The Invisible Coup.

1505
00:54:50,950 --> 00:54:53,590
And he takes us back to when, what

1506
00:54:53,590 --> 00:54:55,750
the Trump, what the Trump, what the Trump

1507
00:54:55,750 --> 00:54:58,450
is talking about is actually true.

1508
00:54:58,450 --> 00:54:59,710
I think it should be the Trump.

1509
00:54:59,710 --> 00:55:00,990
We're going to call him the Trump from

1510
00:55:00,990 --> 00:55:01,570
now on.

1511
00:55:01,970 --> 00:55:02,770
Listen to this.

1512
00:55:03,050 --> 00:55:04,830
Back in 1980, the Mariel boat left.

1513
00:55:05,190 --> 00:55:07,290
And a lot of people that were around

1514
00:55:07,290 --> 00:55:10,270
will remember that the United States was flooded

1515
00:55:10,270 --> 00:55:11,550
with Cuban refugees.

1516
00:55:12,230 --> 00:55:13,290
And Jimmy Carter.

1517
00:55:13,590 --> 00:55:15,570
These were the Cuban boat people that came.

1518
00:55:15,710 --> 00:55:16,750
Remember, they were, they were floating.

1519
00:55:17,190 --> 00:55:18,370
They were coming over on everything.

1520
00:55:18,710 --> 00:55:20,830
On inner tubes, all kinds of stuff.

1521
00:55:20,930 --> 00:55:24,630
When this first started developing said, you know,

1522
00:55:24,630 --> 00:55:26,530
we're a compassionate country, which is true.

1523
00:55:26,570 --> 00:55:28,470
We're going to welcome them with open arms.

1524
00:55:28,470 --> 00:55:31,850
And Fidel Castro told his top aides, well,

1525
00:55:31,950 --> 00:55:34,510
we're going to fill their arms with excrement.

1526
00:55:34,830 --> 00:55:36,230
He used a different word.

1527
00:55:36,710 --> 00:55:40,110
And this was really the first modern example

1528
00:55:40,110 --> 00:55:44,010
of weaponized immigration, because what Fidel Castro recognized

1529
00:55:44,010 --> 00:55:49,710
was we can actually attack the United States

1530
00:55:49,710 --> 00:55:52,710
by sending them criminals, people that are mentally

1531
00:55:52,710 --> 00:55:54,850
ill, but also people that are going to

1532
00:55:54,850 --> 00:55:59,150
set up criminal networks, drug networks inside the

1533
00:55:59,150 --> 00:56:00,050
United States.

1534
00:56:00,590 --> 00:56:02,410
And so what we thought was a sort

1535
00:56:02,410 --> 00:56:05,530
of random humanitarian event was actually a targeted

1536
00:56:05,530 --> 00:56:06,070
attack.

1537
00:56:06,310 --> 00:56:08,950
And I quote from a government panel that

1538
00:56:08,950 --> 00:56:11,150
later looked at the Mariel boat lift and

1539
00:56:11,150 --> 00:56:14,990
concluded that it was probably the third most

1540
00:56:14,990 --> 00:56:17,810
lethal foreign attack on the United States.

1541
00:56:17,810 --> 00:56:20,710
Besides Pearl Harbor and 9-11, the Mariel

1542
00:56:20,710 --> 00:56:22,930
boat lift was probably the third most lethal

1543
00:56:22,930 --> 00:56:23,550
attack.

1544
00:56:23,850 --> 00:56:26,130
So I already got his book and he's

1545
00:56:26,130 --> 00:56:29,910
very detailed with his sources, where it's all

1546
00:56:29,910 --> 00:56:30,370
coming from.

1547
00:56:30,410 --> 00:56:31,690
But it's not all that hidden.

1548
00:56:32,290 --> 00:56:34,730
Now he gives us the Sao Paulo forum

1549
00:56:34,730 --> 00:56:36,190
and who's involved in that.

1550
00:56:36,450 --> 00:56:40,010
And this became a template for a lot

1551
00:56:40,010 --> 00:56:41,890
of modern Latin American leaders.

1552
00:56:41,890 --> 00:56:44,830
In the summer of 1980, when this was

1553
00:56:44,830 --> 00:56:48,490
unfolding, Fidel Castro goes to Nicaragua to meet

1554
00:56:48,490 --> 00:56:49,650
with Sandinista leaders.

1555
00:56:49,830 --> 00:56:52,350
And there's a young revolutionary there named Lula,

1556
00:56:52,770 --> 00:56:56,710
who later today is the president of Brazil.

1557
00:56:56,710 --> 00:56:59,650
And he sets up an entity called the

1558
00:56:59,650 --> 00:57:03,370
Sao Paulo forum with Fidel Castro, which includes

1559
00:57:03,370 --> 00:57:07,110
progressive leaders from across Latin America and in

1560
00:57:07,110 --> 00:57:10,070
the United States, the Democratic Socialists of America,

1561
00:57:10,250 --> 00:57:12,470
which is Bernie Sanders and the OCC group.

1562
00:57:12,470 --> 00:57:17,030
And the Sao Paulo forum has weaponized immigration

1563
00:57:17,030 --> 00:57:18,630
against us today.

1564
00:57:18,790 --> 00:57:21,450
And that includes the Marina Party of Mexico

1565
00:57:21,450 --> 00:57:24,970
and Petro, the leader of Colombia and a

1566
00:57:24,970 --> 00:57:27,270
whole host of other countries who have adopted

1567
00:57:27,270 --> 00:57:30,570
this as their strategy to defeat the United

1568
00:57:30,570 --> 00:57:31,130
States.

1569
00:57:31,530 --> 00:57:34,450
Enter Mexico, who has quite the plan, apparently.

1570
00:57:34,950 --> 00:57:37,210
And I always thought of Mexico in the

1571
00:57:37,210 --> 00:57:38,910
context of, OK, you've got kind of this

1572
00:57:38,910 --> 00:57:40,690
hapless government and it's corrupt.

1573
00:57:40,690 --> 00:57:43,230
And they're kind of glad for mass migration

1574
00:57:43,230 --> 00:57:44,790
because now they don't have to feed their

1575
00:57:44,790 --> 00:57:45,390
own people.

1576
00:57:45,590 --> 00:57:49,170
The reality is, in their own words, they

1577
00:57:49,170 --> 00:57:50,990
view immigration very differently.

1578
00:57:51,630 --> 00:57:54,130
But this is from a government report.

1579
00:57:54,410 --> 00:57:56,570
This is a report written by one of

1580
00:57:56,570 --> 00:57:59,690
President Scheinbaum's top aides in December of 2024.

1581
00:58:00,790 --> 00:58:03,330
We already know that the Mexican population in

1582
00:58:03,330 --> 00:58:05,850
the United States reaches thirty nine point nine

1583
00:58:05,850 --> 00:58:06,250
million.

1584
00:58:06,650 --> 00:58:10,070
We Mexicans are reclaiming our territory.

1585
00:58:10,070 --> 00:58:12,510
That's from December of twenty twenty four.

1586
00:58:12,950 --> 00:58:15,290
Here's a powerful senator who's also a member

1587
00:58:15,290 --> 00:58:17,350
of the Marina Party, who sits on the

1588
00:58:17,350 --> 00:58:19,610
National Defense Committee, which is the most powerful

1589
00:58:19,610 --> 00:58:21,070
committee in the Mexican Senate.

1590
00:58:21,570 --> 00:58:25,750
We Mexicans are in our territories, California, Nevada,

1591
00:58:26,070 --> 00:58:31,170
Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado

1592
00:58:31,170 --> 00:58:31,970
and Wyoming.

1593
00:58:32,090 --> 00:58:34,910
We're going to take back the territory that

1594
00:58:34,910 --> 00:58:36,050
was stolen from us.

1595
00:58:36,050 --> 00:58:39,810
They have actually created a network and infrastructure

1596
00:58:39,810 --> 00:58:41,850
inside the United States.

1597
00:58:42,090 --> 00:58:45,770
And this infrastructure, this includes Mexican government officials

1598
00:58:45,770 --> 00:58:49,130
inside the United States who are organizing violent

1599
00:58:49,130 --> 00:58:51,610
protests like those that hit Los Angeles, those

1600
00:58:51,610 --> 00:58:52,270
that are in Minneapolis.

1601
00:58:52,850 --> 00:58:57,650
And they are actively participating in our politics.

1602
00:58:57,650 --> 00:59:01,070
They are working to elect Democrats who are

1603
00:59:01,070 --> 00:59:04,650
sympathetic, a foreign government to elect Democrats who

1604
00:59:04,650 --> 00:59:07,590
are sympathetic to them on immigration and working

1605
00:59:07,590 --> 00:59:11,770
to defeat President Trump through Mexican consulates that

1606
00:59:11,770 --> 00:59:13,170
are across the United States.

1607
00:59:13,290 --> 00:59:15,270
I don't doubt this at all.

1608
00:59:15,890 --> 00:59:17,730
It sounds completely plausible.

1609
00:59:18,650 --> 00:59:20,690
Yeah, that's why the Mexican flag is always

1610
00:59:20,690 --> 00:59:22,750
prevalent at these things.

1611
00:59:23,250 --> 00:59:23,350
Exactly.

1612
00:59:23,510 --> 00:59:24,050
And here's a little.

1613
00:59:24,250 --> 00:59:25,310
You get a clue, people.

1614
00:59:25,310 --> 00:59:25,770
What are you?

1615
00:59:25,870 --> 00:59:28,270
Why are these guys flying a Mexican flag

1616
00:59:28,270 --> 00:59:29,330
in Los Angeles?

1617
00:59:29,510 --> 00:59:29,970
Come on.

1618
00:59:30,050 --> 00:59:31,250
Here's a little bonus clip.

1619
00:59:31,530 --> 00:59:34,710
Mexico has a reputation for being kind of

1620
00:59:34,710 --> 00:59:37,470
a sleepy, corrupt government and people don't take

1621
00:59:37,470 --> 00:59:38,110
them seriously.

1622
00:59:38,250 --> 00:59:39,070
I think we should.

1623
00:59:39,690 --> 00:59:43,310
Mexico has 53 consulates in the United States.

1624
00:59:43,810 --> 00:59:44,550
Fifty three.

1625
00:59:44,670 --> 00:59:47,070
In contrast, the two other countries with the

1626
00:59:47,070 --> 00:59:50,370
most are China and the United Kingdom with

1627
00:59:50,370 --> 00:59:51,210
six and seven.

1628
00:59:53,310 --> 00:59:56,490
So I don't doubt that the Trump is

1629
00:59:56,490 --> 00:59:59,390
telling the truth, but he he speaks it.

1630
00:59:59,670 --> 01:00:01,390
So, I mean, he just he's so repetitive

1631
01:00:01,390 --> 01:00:03,470
that I was like, yeah, whatever.

1632
01:00:03,730 --> 01:00:04,770
Where are they?

1633
01:00:04,870 --> 01:00:06,930
My cleaning lady doesn't seem to be dangerous.

1634
01:00:07,450 --> 01:00:10,370
But I completely believe that all these different

1635
01:00:10,370 --> 01:00:13,890
countries have indeed emptied their jails and there's

1636
01:00:13,890 --> 01:00:14,950
insane asylums.

1637
01:00:14,950 --> 01:00:17,630
And well, when they could send people over,

1638
01:00:18,010 --> 01:00:19,410
I don't doubt that at all.

1639
01:00:19,410 --> 01:00:21,090
And he says, well, maybe two million of

1640
01:00:21,090 --> 01:00:22,470
them, quite possibly.

1641
01:00:23,370 --> 01:00:25,410
And then this is the final clip.

1642
01:00:25,410 --> 01:00:27,970
This is just an extra bonus.

1643
01:00:28,270 --> 01:00:30,370
This is a quote from twenty twenty three

1644
01:00:30,370 --> 01:00:32,810
that I think lays out the fact that

1645
01:00:32,810 --> 01:00:34,190
they want this to be silence.

1646
01:00:34,330 --> 01:00:35,670
Again, this is from twenty twenty three.

1647
01:00:35,790 --> 01:00:38,750
The head of the Mexican news agency, which

1648
01:00:38,750 --> 01:00:41,130
is like their sort of associated press.

1649
01:00:41,130 --> 01:00:43,690
He says, quote, We are quietly carrying out

1650
01:00:43,690 --> 01:00:46,530
the reconquest of our territories in the US

1651
01:00:46,530 --> 01:00:49,110
taken from us in 1848.

1652
01:00:49,830 --> 01:00:52,910
The reconquest of the Aztec territory is silent.

1653
01:00:53,330 --> 01:00:56,510
And the day that the gringos realize this,

1654
01:00:57,310 --> 01:01:01,070
their diabolical fundamentalism will become macabre.

1655
01:01:01,490 --> 01:01:03,030
In other words, we need to keep this

1656
01:01:03,030 --> 01:01:03,430
quiet.

1657
01:01:03,550 --> 01:01:04,930
We don't want to talk about it publicly

1658
01:01:04,930 --> 01:01:07,990
because when the gringos, as he says, find

1659
01:01:07,990 --> 01:01:10,150
out, they're going to be really, really angry

1660
01:01:10,150 --> 01:01:10,830
about it.

1661
01:01:10,830 --> 01:01:14,270
So we need to recognize what's going on,

1662
01:01:14,330 --> 01:01:16,250
have an honest conversation about it.

1663
01:01:16,710 --> 01:01:18,670
There are dozens of these quotes in the

1664
01:01:18,670 --> 01:01:19,990
book for Mexican officials.

1665
01:01:19,990 --> 01:01:23,150
And we go through and name the Mexican

1666
01:01:23,150 --> 01:01:26,450
government officials who were at the center of

1667
01:01:26,450 --> 01:01:29,330
the L.A. riots last year who are

1668
01:01:29,330 --> 01:01:31,170
manipulating our politics.

1669
01:01:31,690 --> 01:01:34,390
Yeah, I think the Trump is right.

1670
01:01:35,390 --> 01:01:37,970
And this is what ICE is going after,

1671
01:01:38,290 --> 01:01:42,330
after these elements that have infiltrated our country.

1672
01:01:42,810 --> 01:01:43,710
He's right.

1673
01:01:44,270 --> 01:01:46,810
But I, I just kind of glossed over

1674
01:01:46,810 --> 01:01:48,010
it, too, like, whatever.

1675
01:01:48,470 --> 01:01:49,910
I've heard it a million times.

1676
01:01:50,310 --> 01:01:51,010
Where are they?

1677
01:01:51,510 --> 01:01:53,790
But the fact that they have colluded with

1678
01:01:53,790 --> 01:01:57,430
the Democrat Party, certainly in the Los Angeles,

1679
01:01:57,610 --> 01:01:58,770
quote, unquote, riots.

1680
01:01:59,090 --> 01:02:02,110
If you see the organization, it doesn't surprise

1681
01:02:02,110 --> 01:02:02,630
me at all.

1682
01:02:02,630 --> 01:02:06,650
So stuck in the crosshairs of this is

1683
01:02:06,650 --> 01:02:09,910
law enforcement and citizens who really have been

1684
01:02:09,910 --> 01:02:11,350
told they're doing the right thing.

1685
01:02:11,610 --> 01:02:15,030
You are you're compassionate, you're empathetic, and you're

1686
01:02:15,030 --> 01:02:15,890
a good person.

1687
01:02:16,430 --> 01:02:19,650
And liberals love being good persons in general.

1688
01:02:20,850 --> 01:02:23,530
And but this is an actual battle.

1689
01:02:25,350 --> 01:02:27,810
And I'm I can't wait to see what

1690
01:02:27,810 --> 01:02:29,810
Schweitzer what else Schweitzer has in his book,

1691
01:02:29,870 --> 01:02:31,110
because I'll bet there's a lot more to

1692
01:02:31,110 --> 01:02:31,690
this.

1693
01:02:32,490 --> 01:02:34,190
Yeah, I got to read this thing.

1694
01:02:34,270 --> 01:02:34,610
Right.

1695
01:02:34,850 --> 01:02:35,610
I know.

1696
01:02:36,090 --> 01:02:36,630
I know.

1697
01:02:36,790 --> 01:02:37,130
Thanks.

1698
01:02:37,930 --> 01:02:38,710
You're welcome.

1699
01:02:40,290 --> 01:02:43,750
So, you know, tragedy of foolishness.

1700
01:02:44,730 --> 01:02:47,430
And blood guilt, the way I see it,

1701
01:02:47,630 --> 01:02:51,110
between foolish people who have been told who

1702
01:02:51,110 --> 01:02:53,930
somehow believe that it's their right to peacefully

1703
01:02:53,930 --> 01:02:56,830
protest, which is not peaceably assemble.

1704
01:02:57,050 --> 01:02:57,390
Yes.

1705
01:02:58,070 --> 01:03:01,050
And they're being told by their actual elected

1706
01:03:01,050 --> 01:03:02,670
representatives what to do.

1707
01:03:02,890 --> 01:03:07,610
And those representatives, in turn, are taking apparently

1708
01:03:07,610 --> 01:03:11,970
taking commands from other countries because, hey, we'll.

1709
01:03:11,970 --> 01:03:15,350
They should arrest Walls and that Frye guy,

1710
01:03:15,450 --> 01:03:16,310
a guy's an idiot.

1711
01:03:16,970 --> 01:03:19,050
Yeah, they should, because people are going to

1712
01:03:19,050 --> 01:03:19,550
get hurt.

1713
01:03:19,950 --> 01:03:21,790
But they're not going to arrest.

1714
01:03:21,870 --> 01:03:23,590
I mean, they're going to arrest a ringleader,

1715
01:03:23,810 --> 01:03:25,590
which brings me to the Don Lemon thing.

1716
01:03:25,650 --> 01:03:26,550
I just want to get this out of

1717
01:03:26,550 --> 01:03:26,930
the way.

1718
01:03:27,550 --> 01:03:30,790
Don Lemon, which you made a point of,

1719
01:03:30,950 --> 01:03:32,210
you know, we didn't talk about it, but

1720
01:03:32,210 --> 01:03:33,070
I'm going to talk about it.

1721
01:03:33,070 --> 01:03:35,350
As far as I can tell, looking at

1722
01:03:35,350 --> 01:03:38,590
the just the way it went down, Don

1723
01:03:38,590 --> 01:03:41,230
Lemon is a CIA for the FBI.

1724
01:03:42,570 --> 01:03:45,110
There's no doubt in my mind about this

1725
01:03:45,110 --> 01:03:48,010
as in confidential informant informant.

1726
01:03:48,750 --> 01:03:51,830
And he's probably getting paid because the way

1727
01:03:51,830 --> 01:03:55,190
he set up that woman who organized the

1728
01:03:55,190 --> 01:03:58,990
church invasion was so obvious.

1729
01:03:58,990 --> 01:04:00,930
He did a long interview with her.

1730
01:04:00,990 --> 01:04:04,990
She just basically convinced I'm sorry, confessed on

1731
01:04:04,990 --> 01:04:06,250
camera everything.

1732
01:04:06,250 --> 01:04:07,910
She was going to do all the illegal

1733
01:04:07,910 --> 01:04:09,410
action, everything in between.

1734
01:04:09,630 --> 01:04:11,790
You even had a name for the operation,

1735
01:04:11,990 --> 01:04:14,030
Operation Pull Up, which I still can't figure

1736
01:04:14,030 --> 01:04:14,350
out.

1737
01:04:14,430 --> 01:04:15,830
But, yeah, good point.

1738
01:04:15,910 --> 01:04:17,910
And so he got that on tape and

1739
01:04:17,910 --> 01:04:19,450
then he went in there and he made

1740
01:04:19,450 --> 01:04:20,290
a fool of himself.

1741
01:04:20,530 --> 01:04:22,970
And and then he then they put the

1742
01:04:22,970 --> 01:04:25,850
indictment or the arrest warrants out for three

1743
01:04:25,850 --> 01:04:26,390
individuals.

1744
01:04:26,390 --> 01:04:28,470
And they left and included it for actually

1745
01:04:28,470 --> 01:04:29,710
because Don Lemon was on it.

1746
01:04:29,710 --> 01:04:36,090
And the judge refused to indict or have

1747
01:04:36,090 --> 01:04:37,330
Don Lemon arrested.

1748
01:04:37,570 --> 01:04:37,830
Yes.

1749
01:04:38,130 --> 01:04:40,890
Well, this was a major screw up because

1750
01:04:40,890 --> 01:04:43,910
when you have a CIA, he gets caught

1751
01:04:43,910 --> 01:04:44,450
up in it.

1752
01:04:44,670 --> 01:04:45,730
He gets arrested.

1753
01:04:46,110 --> 01:04:47,090
That's the idea.

1754
01:04:47,230 --> 01:04:48,650
You don't want to make it appear.

1755
01:04:48,650 --> 01:04:52,090
And the judge who let him go, his

1756
01:04:52,090 --> 01:04:56,790
wife works for AG, the attorney general of

1757
01:04:56,790 --> 01:04:57,330
Minnesota.

1758
01:04:58,030 --> 01:04:59,490
Nice catch, Ellison.

1759
01:05:00,150 --> 01:05:02,970
And so she probably thought, well, you know,

1760
01:05:03,010 --> 01:05:04,550
hey, he's working for the actually working for

1761
01:05:04,550 --> 01:05:04,810
the FBI.

1762
01:05:04,890 --> 01:05:05,510
Oh, OK.

1763
01:05:05,530 --> 01:05:06,890
I won't arrest him because I want to

1764
01:05:06,890 --> 01:05:07,590
give him a break.

1765
01:05:07,730 --> 01:05:11,570
Not knowing the playbook, Pam Bondi has to

1766
01:05:11,570 --> 01:05:11,910
fly.

1767
01:05:12,010 --> 01:05:13,310
She says, I'm flying to Minnesota.

1768
01:05:13,690 --> 01:05:15,790
She's got to literally fly out there and

1769
01:05:15,790 --> 01:05:17,110
she can't do it over the phone.

1770
01:05:17,110 --> 01:05:19,210
She has to fly through and read this

1771
01:05:19,210 --> 01:05:21,810
guy, the riot act, why he screwed up,

1772
01:05:21,850 --> 01:05:23,810
because Lemon has to be arrested.

1773
01:05:24,250 --> 01:05:27,910
Otherwise, otherwise is blown or his covers blown.

1774
01:05:28,070 --> 01:05:29,370
And it is blown as far as I'm

1775
01:05:29,370 --> 01:05:30,190
concerned already.

1776
01:05:30,570 --> 01:05:30,690
Yeah.

1777
01:05:30,750 --> 01:05:33,630
But his his whole game was being being,

1778
01:05:33,750 --> 01:05:34,850
you know, he needs money.

1779
01:05:35,310 --> 01:05:36,850
And the giveaway was when he was.

1780
01:05:37,370 --> 01:05:38,110
He does.

1781
01:05:40,330 --> 01:05:42,170
Honey, I'm going to I got to take

1782
01:05:42,170 --> 01:05:42,870
this gig, honey.

1783
01:05:42,890 --> 01:05:43,410
I'm sorry.

1784
01:05:43,630 --> 01:05:44,630
I just have to.

1785
01:05:44,630 --> 01:05:46,530
Oh, you know, you know the type of

1786
01:05:46,530 --> 01:05:47,150
guy he is.

1787
01:05:47,250 --> 01:05:48,410
He's one of those guys who thinks it's

1788
01:05:48,410 --> 01:05:48,810
cool.

1789
01:05:49,070 --> 01:05:49,610
Yeah, of course.

1790
01:05:50,190 --> 01:05:51,330
And so he would.

1791
01:05:51,410 --> 01:05:54,990
So he's so he gets gets himself involved

1792
01:05:54,990 --> 01:05:55,790
in this whole thing.

1793
01:05:56,030 --> 01:05:59,530
But the giveaway was a clip you played

1794
01:05:59,530 --> 01:06:02,390
on another show that was him.

1795
01:06:02,470 --> 01:06:03,610
And this is a clip that I thought

1796
01:06:03,610 --> 01:06:04,290
about getting.

1797
01:06:04,310 --> 01:06:05,630
But I hate these people.

1798
01:06:05,630 --> 01:06:07,990
This is the I've had it podcast of

1799
01:06:07,990 --> 01:06:09,450
the putty faced woman.

1800
01:06:09,530 --> 01:06:10,870
I talked about her in the newsletter.

1801
01:06:11,050 --> 01:06:11,350
Yes.

1802
01:06:12,470 --> 01:06:13,350
Jennifer Welch.

1803
01:06:13,970 --> 01:06:15,710
And she has Don Lemon on.

1804
01:06:15,850 --> 01:06:17,490
And Lemon's going on and on about what

1805
01:06:17,490 --> 01:06:17,870
happened.

1806
01:06:18,110 --> 01:06:20,150
Oh, and he says and he uses the

1807
01:06:20,150 --> 01:06:22,090
term my producers.

1808
01:06:22,890 --> 01:06:23,330
Yes.

1809
01:06:24,370 --> 01:06:26,290
My what is a guy who is a

1810
01:06:26,290 --> 01:06:32,510
podcaster that need that indicates multiple people, my

1811
01:06:32,510 --> 01:06:33,290
producers.

1812
01:06:34,050 --> 01:06:36,070
And, you know, you might want an engineer,

1813
01:06:36,770 --> 01:06:37,530
you know, or something.

1814
01:06:37,630 --> 01:06:38,670
There's different kinds of you're going to go

1815
01:06:38,670 --> 01:06:40,030
a solo and do what he's doing.

1816
01:06:40,030 --> 01:06:43,850
You don't need producers, but his producers, his

1817
01:06:43,850 --> 01:06:46,830
handlers, one of them is obviously the FBI

1818
01:06:46,830 --> 01:06:47,270
guy.

1819
01:06:47,470 --> 01:06:49,130
This is so phony.

1820
01:06:49,250 --> 01:06:50,330
But poor Don Lemon.

1821
01:06:50,690 --> 01:06:52,310
Now it's going to have to be good

1822
01:06:52,310 --> 01:06:54,550
because you will probably arrest him to try

1823
01:06:54,550 --> 01:06:56,210
to make make amends.

1824
01:06:56,450 --> 01:06:57,930
And then they're going to have to decide

1825
01:06:57,930 --> 01:06:59,090
what are we going to do with him?

1826
01:06:59,650 --> 01:07:01,730
Will Don, you'll get a slap on the

1827
01:07:01,730 --> 01:07:02,690
wrist, maybe.

1828
01:07:02,890 --> 01:07:05,110
But maybe Don can say, hey, you know,

1829
01:07:05,130 --> 01:07:07,330
if you put me in jail for four

1830
01:07:07,330 --> 01:07:09,650
months at some really lush place, I might

1831
01:07:09,650 --> 01:07:10,430
meet somebody.

1832
01:07:11,310 --> 01:07:12,110
No, no.

1833
01:07:12,250 --> 01:07:13,510
It would be it would go like this.

1834
01:07:13,570 --> 01:07:15,610
It would be I have street cred.

1835
01:07:15,790 --> 01:07:17,810
I can do a lot of better job.

1836
01:07:18,250 --> 01:07:18,750
Do you want to hear?

1837
01:07:18,850 --> 01:07:19,990
I have that clip if you want to

1838
01:07:19,990 --> 01:07:20,350
hear it.

1839
01:07:20,550 --> 01:07:22,290
The play that clip.

1840
01:07:22,450 --> 01:07:23,250
Yeah, here we go.

1841
01:07:23,490 --> 01:07:24,830
And there's a certain degree of entitlement.

1842
01:07:24,950 --> 01:07:26,790
I think people who are, you know, in

1843
01:07:26,790 --> 01:07:28,870
religious groups like that, it's not the type

1844
01:07:28,870 --> 01:07:31,210
of Christianity that I practice, but I think

1845
01:07:31,210 --> 01:07:33,650
that they're entitled and that that entitlement comes

1846
01:07:33,650 --> 01:07:36,210
from a supremacy, a white supremacy.

1847
01:07:36,210 --> 01:07:38,250
And they think that this country was built

1848
01:07:38,250 --> 01:07:39,650
for them, that it is a Christian country.

1849
01:07:39,650 --> 01:07:41,790
When actually we left England because we wanted

1850
01:07:41,790 --> 01:07:42,510
religious freedom.

1851
01:07:42,830 --> 01:07:43,650
It's religious freedom.

1852
01:07:43,650 --> 01:07:45,310
But only if you're a Christian and only

1853
01:07:45,310 --> 01:07:46,890
if you're a white male, pretty much.

1854
01:07:47,310 --> 01:07:49,270
And so, yeah, I absolutely 100 percent.

1855
01:07:49,430 --> 01:07:50,910
But it's an intimidation tactic.

1856
01:07:51,490 --> 01:07:53,430
And, you know, I said, I don't understand

1857
01:07:53,430 --> 01:07:54,730
how I've become the face of it when

1858
01:07:54,730 --> 01:07:55,370
I was a journalist.

1859
01:07:55,510 --> 01:07:57,430
I do understand that I'm the biggest name

1860
01:07:57,430 --> 01:07:57,710
there.

1861
01:07:58,010 --> 01:07:59,830
And I'm also as I was on with

1862
01:07:59,830 --> 01:08:02,110
my producers this morning, you and Kylie talk

1863
01:08:02,110 --> 01:08:02,510
all the time.

1864
01:08:02,570 --> 01:08:04,110
My producers were saying, I said, how did

1865
01:08:04,110 --> 01:08:05,010
I become the face of this?

1866
01:08:05,010 --> 01:08:06,470
And my producers said, Don, you're a gay

1867
01:08:06,470 --> 01:08:07,430
black man in America.

1868
01:08:08,030 --> 01:08:11,390
I take some some kind of pleasure in

1869
01:08:11,390 --> 01:08:13,170
knowing that you are listening to me and

1870
01:08:13,170 --> 01:08:15,770
Pastor Jimmy and yelling at the podcast.

1871
01:08:16,590 --> 01:08:17,689
No, shaking my fist.

1872
01:08:18,270 --> 01:08:20,470
Like he's an FBI informant.

1873
01:08:20,550 --> 01:08:21,910
Don't you guys see that?

1874
01:08:23,550 --> 01:08:25,270
It's an FBI CI.

1875
01:08:25,670 --> 01:08:26,069
CI.

1876
01:08:26,229 --> 01:08:30,130
So this will play out in some way.

1877
01:08:30,229 --> 01:08:31,990
It's already, as far as I'm concerned, the

1878
01:08:31,990 --> 01:08:32,890
cover's blown.

1879
01:08:34,590 --> 01:08:36,810
But nobody else is seeing this.

1880
01:08:37,029 --> 01:08:38,529
Obviously, they wouldn't be all upset.

1881
01:08:38,770 --> 01:08:42,210
All the podcast industrial complexes all over it

1882
01:08:42,210 --> 01:08:44,109
because, you know, Don Lemon, they hate him,

1883
01:08:44,250 --> 01:08:45,689
which is perfect cover.

1884
01:08:46,729 --> 01:08:49,490
Oh, and all the the podcast pastors.

1885
01:08:50,830 --> 01:08:53,250
Yeah, they've totally they've totally whiffed on that.

1886
01:08:53,430 --> 01:08:56,410
I actually have a short clip of the

1887
01:08:56,410 --> 01:08:57,870
attorney general, Keith Ellison.

1888
01:08:58,069 --> 01:08:59,350
I don't remember what's on it, but it's

1889
01:08:59,350 --> 01:09:00,210
only 30 seconds.

1890
01:09:00,210 --> 01:09:04,229
The protest is fundamental to American society.

1891
01:09:04,350 --> 01:09:05,990
This country started in a protest.

1892
01:09:06,850 --> 01:09:09,109
And, you know, it's freedom of expression.

1893
01:09:09,770 --> 01:09:11,270
People have a right to lift up their

1894
01:09:11,270 --> 01:09:12,630
voices and make their peace.

1895
01:09:13,410 --> 01:09:16,210
And none of us are immune from the

1896
01:09:16,210 --> 01:09:17,970
voice of the of the public.

1897
01:09:18,050 --> 01:09:20,430
So I quite honestly, I think that you

1898
01:09:20,430 --> 01:09:22,550
got the First Amendment, freedom of religion and

1899
01:09:22,550 --> 01:09:24,590
the freedom of the First Amendment, freedom of

1900
01:09:24,590 --> 01:09:25,050
expression.

1901
01:09:25,050 --> 01:09:25,569
No.

1902
01:09:26,090 --> 01:09:28,130
And I think that, you know, it's just

1903
01:09:28,130 --> 01:09:31,710
I think it's just something to live with

1904
01:09:31,710 --> 01:09:32,210
in a society.

1905
01:09:32,729 --> 01:09:34,029
He breaks up there.

1906
01:09:34,410 --> 01:09:35,090
Well, that's terrible.

1907
01:09:35,290 --> 01:09:35,510
Yeah.

1908
01:09:35,810 --> 01:09:37,189
That's why I didn't play it, I guess.

1909
01:09:37,310 --> 01:09:37,470
Yeah.

1910
01:09:37,569 --> 01:09:39,649
There's something fishy about that guy, too.

1911
01:09:39,790 --> 01:09:42,109
I mean, that's not even a jurist who's

1912
01:09:42,109 --> 01:09:42,710
speaking there.

1913
01:09:42,790 --> 01:09:45,790
I mean, our country started with the protest.

1914
01:09:46,189 --> 01:09:46,470
Mm.

1915
01:09:48,130 --> 01:09:48,630
OK.

1916
01:09:49,390 --> 01:09:51,170
I don't think so.

1917
01:09:52,290 --> 01:09:55,310
I guess tossing the tea over the there's

1918
01:09:55,310 --> 01:09:56,450
a violent protest.

1919
01:09:56,590 --> 01:09:56,830
Yeah.

1920
01:09:56,890 --> 01:09:59,370
But but that's why we put together a

1921
01:09:59,370 --> 01:10:01,570
bill of rights and what and this is

1922
01:10:01,570 --> 01:10:02,030
not about.

1923
01:10:02,230 --> 01:10:04,670
And I hate it when people in law

1924
01:10:04,670 --> 01:10:06,590
say, well, we have these rights.

1925
01:10:06,670 --> 01:10:11,290
Now, those the amendments are telling.

1926
01:10:11,430 --> 01:10:12,870
No, you hate is when they say the

1927
01:10:12,870 --> 01:10:14,450
government is allowed these rights.

1928
01:10:14,450 --> 01:10:14,810
Yes.

1929
01:10:15,070 --> 01:10:18,410
Well, well, you know, the government conferred.

1930
01:10:18,610 --> 01:10:18,990
Yes.

1931
01:10:20,070 --> 01:10:20,230
Yeah.

1932
01:10:20,390 --> 01:10:21,510
You have these.

1933
01:10:21,650 --> 01:10:22,650
Of course it's bad.

1934
01:10:22,670 --> 01:10:24,230
Like this is your little sliver of what

1935
01:10:24,230 --> 01:10:24,630
you may do.

1936
01:10:24,710 --> 01:10:24,930
No, no.

1937
01:10:24,930 --> 01:10:26,710
This is what the government may not stop

1938
01:10:26,710 --> 01:10:27,570
you from doing.

1939
01:10:27,670 --> 01:10:29,370
And that the that always does irk me.

1940
01:10:29,410 --> 01:10:30,830
But that's just an education system.

1941
01:10:30,830 --> 01:10:34,910
I think you have nailed it on this.

1942
01:10:35,050 --> 01:10:36,670
And you're right.

1943
01:10:36,710 --> 01:10:39,250
They really screwed up by not at least

1944
01:10:39,250 --> 01:10:40,810
detaining him overnight.

1945
01:10:40,810 --> 01:10:43,030
I mean, even that would have given him

1946
01:10:43,030 --> 01:10:45,470
enough street cred to talk about.

1947
01:10:45,910 --> 01:10:47,330
He had to use a toilet paper roll

1948
01:10:47,330 --> 01:10:47,950
as a pillow.

1949
01:10:50,230 --> 01:10:50,670
Yeah.

1950
01:10:51,070 --> 01:10:52,170
All the good stuff.

1951
01:10:55,010 --> 01:10:57,630
That happened to a friend of mine, a

1952
01:10:57,630 --> 01:10:57,970
pilot.

1953
01:10:58,090 --> 01:11:00,670
He flew to Cancun for New Year's with

1954
01:11:00,670 --> 01:11:01,230
his wife.

1955
01:11:01,450 --> 01:11:02,770
And he has his own plane.

1956
01:11:04,010 --> 01:11:05,990
And, you know, here in Texas, we have

1957
01:11:05,990 --> 01:11:06,750
a flight bag.

1958
01:11:06,750 --> 01:11:08,150
Just throw the flight bag in.

1959
01:11:08,270 --> 01:11:09,890
And, you know, it's got your your iPad,

1960
01:11:10,230 --> 01:11:12,070
your chart charts anymore.

1961
01:11:12,070 --> 01:11:14,370
But, you know, like a backup radio, just

1962
01:11:14,370 --> 01:11:15,010
your flight back.

1963
01:11:15,530 --> 01:11:17,950
And so on the way out as he's

1964
01:11:17,950 --> 01:11:20,350
leaving, which is when and he has a

1965
01:11:20,350 --> 01:11:21,830
small turboprop.

1966
01:11:21,910 --> 01:11:23,470
So not a not a private jet or

1967
01:11:23,470 --> 01:11:23,750
anything.

1968
01:11:24,350 --> 01:11:26,730
But this was the moment when everyone with

1969
01:11:26,730 --> 01:11:28,670
a private jet just decided to leave.

1970
01:11:28,690 --> 01:11:30,530
So they had extra security.

1971
01:11:30,610 --> 01:11:32,350
He puts his bag on the belt and

1972
01:11:32,350 --> 01:11:34,450
he sees all these guys coming around.

1973
01:11:34,450 --> 01:11:36,730
They're looking at the bag and and he

1974
01:11:36,730 --> 01:11:38,110
left his handgun in it.

1975
01:11:39,470 --> 01:11:41,250
So he gets arrested.

1976
01:11:41,550 --> 01:11:42,770
And of course, they're, you know.

1977
01:11:42,910 --> 01:11:43,310
Wait a minute.

1978
01:11:43,430 --> 01:11:43,870
Stop.

1979
01:11:45,510 --> 01:11:47,630
He's on a he's got a private plane

1980
01:11:47,630 --> 01:11:49,550
and they're they're checking his luggage.

1981
01:11:50,250 --> 01:11:50,690
Handbag.

1982
01:11:50,810 --> 01:11:50,930
Yeah.

1983
01:11:50,970 --> 01:11:53,570
On the way out of the airport at

1984
01:11:53,570 --> 01:11:55,450
the at the private airfield terminal.

1985
01:11:55,970 --> 01:11:56,410
Yeah.

1986
01:11:56,570 --> 01:11:58,030
I've never heard of such a thing.

1987
01:11:58,110 --> 01:11:59,810
Oh, it's happened to me in Switzerland.

1988
01:12:00,250 --> 01:12:03,230
No, it definitely happens for international flights.

1989
01:12:03,230 --> 01:12:05,090
They want to make sure you're not smuggling

1990
01:12:05,090 --> 01:12:06,870
drugs out or this all.

1991
01:12:07,070 --> 01:12:07,270
OK.

1992
01:12:07,410 --> 01:12:07,830
All right.

1993
01:12:07,850 --> 01:12:08,130
OK.

1994
01:12:08,390 --> 01:12:09,930
You know, it's private plane terminal.

1995
01:12:10,650 --> 01:12:13,070
And so he has his little nine millimeter

1996
01:12:13,070 --> 01:12:13,550
in there.

1997
01:12:13,810 --> 01:12:16,210
And they're like, what do you where did

1998
01:12:16,210 --> 01:12:16,790
you buy this?

1999
01:12:16,830 --> 01:12:17,910
Who did you get this from?

2000
01:12:18,270 --> 01:12:19,750
He's like, why would I buy a gun

2001
01:12:19,750 --> 01:12:21,430
in Mexico when I can buy one at

2002
01:12:21,430 --> 01:12:21,890
Kmart?

2003
01:12:23,090 --> 01:12:26,610
He was detained for 48 hours and literally

2004
01:12:26,610 --> 01:12:27,590
in a cell.

2005
01:12:28,270 --> 01:12:29,890
So that ruined his vacation.

2006
01:12:30,090 --> 01:12:30,410
Oh, yeah.

2007
01:12:30,410 --> 01:12:32,830
How about his wife who had to just

2008
01:12:32,830 --> 01:12:34,270
figure out how to get home on a

2009
01:12:34,270 --> 01:12:35,070
commercial flight?

2010
01:12:35,270 --> 01:12:36,310
Oh, the horrors.

2011
01:12:37,470 --> 01:12:39,610
And I think he wound up paying because,

2012
01:12:39,710 --> 01:12:41,330
you know, the consulate got involved and they

2013
01:12:41,330 --> 01:12:42,090
got him a lawyer.

2014
01:12:42,750 --> 01:12:45,150
And he had to pay twenty four thousand

2015
01:12:45,150 --> 01:12:48,970
dollars to the lawyer, most of which was

2016
01:12:48,970 --> 01:12:50,830
given out to people in bribes to get

2017
01:12:50,830 --> 01:12:51,230
him out.

2018
01:12:52,250 --> 01:12:52,690
Mexico.

2019
01:12:53,610 --> 01:12:55,490
And here we're just like, yeah, whatever.

2020
01:12:55,510 --> 01:12:56,210
We'll protect you.

2021
01:12:58,500 --> 01:12:59,920
Just a little contrast there.

2022
01:12:59,920 --> 01:13:02,900
Yeah, I'd say that's more than a little

2023
01:13:02,900 --> 01:13:03,700
contrast.

2024
01:13:04,160 --> 01:13:05,660
And he's leaving the country.

2025
01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:06,900
Yeah.

2026
01:13:09,070 --> 01:13:10,190
Well, yeah.

2027
01:13:10,550 --> 01:13:12,470
Yeah, I got a good one.

2028
01:13:12,590 --> 01:13:14,530
And I was like, you didn't call me.

2029
01:13:15,010 --> 01:13:15,890
I can't believe you didn't call.

2030
01:13:15,970 --> 01:13:17,490
We got robbed the constitutional lawyer.

2031
01:13:17,890 --> 01:13:20,330
We've got we got people around.

2032
01:13:20,450 --> 01:13:22,070
You know, we got people we can call.

2033
01:13:22,630 --> 01:13:23,730
We know people.

2034
01:13:25,170 --> 01:13:27,170
I just wanted to play it straight.

2035
01:13:27,170 --> 01:13:29,570
Could have had you out in two hours,

2036
01:13:29,690 --> 01:13:30,270
man.

2037
01:13:31,710 --> 01:13:33,910
So I want to straighten something out from

2038
01:13:33,910 --> 01:13:34,750
the last show.

2039
01:13:35,930 --> 01:13:40,130
We got your buddy Scott Simpson coming up

2040
01:13:40,130 --> 01:13:43,790
to talk about the tree explosions.

2041
01:13:44,190 --> 01:13:45,630
Suffer and succotash.

2042
01:13:45,750 --> 01:13:47,870
I'm Scott Simon.

2043
01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:54,180
Is there anything people can do to.

2044
01:13:54,820 --> 01:13:55,840
No, no, not that one.

2045
01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:56,200
Hold on.

2046
01:13:56,260 --> 01:13:56,640
I'm sorry.

2047
01:13:57,220 --> 01:13:58,000
That's the second.

2048
01:13:58,140 --> 01:13:58,820
That's part two.

2049
01:13:58,820 --> 01:14:02,100
I just see Scott Simon tree protection.

2050
01:14:02,660 --> 01:14:03,140
Yeah.

2051
01:14:03,220 --> 01:14:03,740
Try it.

2052
01:14:04,500 --> 01:14:05,740
You're going to love this.

2053
01:14:05,940 --> 01:14:06,040
Sorry.

2054
01:14:08,480 --> 01:14:10,400
I caught Simon.

2055
01:14:10,560 --> 01:14:11,300
OK, I got you.

2056
01:14:11,460 --> 01:14:13,680
The trees don't really explode, do they?

2057
01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:17,060
That term of an exploding tree is kind

2058
01:14:17,060 --> 01:14:19,740
of a sensationalized headline that gets a lot

2059
01:14:19,740 --> 01:14:20,280
of attention.

2060
01:14:20,420 --> 01:14:21,900
By the way, I was talking to Tina

2061
01:14:21,900 --> 01:14:24,840
about this who grew up in Indiana.

2062
01:14:25,580 --> 01:14:27,240
She said never.

2063
01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:31,160
It was 10 degrees, eight degrees.

2064
01:14:31,260 --> 01:14:34,120
She says she has never, ever heard of

2065
01:14:34,120 --> 01:14:36,500
this exploding tree phenomenon.

2066
01:14:37,860 --> 01:14:39,580
It's new to me as well.

2067
01:14:39,860 --> 01:14:43,380
In reality, the more appropriate term would be

2068
01:14:43,380 --> 01:14:44,420
cracking tree.

2069
01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:47,620
When it gets cold enough, the sap inside

2070
01:14:47,620 --> 01:14:49,600
a tree will actually freeze.

2071
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:52,680
Most of the time, it's a liquid that

2072
01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:54,860
has all sorts of sugars and things dissolved

2073
01:14:54,860 --> 01:14:55,540
inside it.

2074
01:14:55,540 --> 01:14:59,300
When that sap reaches that critical freezing temperature,

2075
01:14:59,500 --> 01:15:02,900
which is usually well below 32 degrees, it

2076
01:15:02,900 --> 01:15:03,640
will expand.

2077
01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:06,660
Just like water will expand when it freezes,

2078
01:15:06,780 --> 01:15:08,620
the sap is mostly water and the sap

2079
01:15:08,620 --> 01:15:09,100
expands.

2080
01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:12,720
This puts tremendous pressure on the inside of

2081
01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:13,100
the tree.

2082
01:15:13,660 --> 01:15:15,940
If the tree is physically unable to handle

2083
01:15:15,940 --> 01:15:17,740
that pressure, it cracks.

2084
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:21,340
That's how it reduces the pressure on the

2085
01:15:21,340 --> 01:15:22,080
inside of the tree.

2086
01:15:22,080 --> 01:15:25,380
This usually does not kill the tree, but

2087
01:15:25,380 --> 01:15:27,680
it can be a safety hazard.

2088
01:15:27,940 --> 01:15:30,640
If these large cracks appear in trees that

2089
01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:34,580
are around people or buildings or vehicles, an

2090
01:15:34,580 --> 01:15:36,480
arborist should look at this tree and determine

2091
01:15:36,480 --> 01:15:38,000
if it is a safety hazard.

2092
01:15:38,260 --> 01:15:39,460
What's the sound like?

2093
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:42,200
As you can imagine, it takes a lot

2094
01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:46,100
of pressure to cause wood to crack.

2095
01:15:46,100 --> 01:15:49,280
It would not be uncommon to hear a

2096
01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:53,640
large cracking sound, a large popping sound, that

2097
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:54,920
almost sounds like a gunshot.

2098
01:15:55,140 --> 01:15:58,580
But it is actually the wood physically cracking.

2099
01:15:59,740 --> 01:16:01,920
Any kind of tree is more vulnerable than

2100
01:16:01,920 --> 01:16:02,260
another.

2101
01:16:02,820 --> 01:16:05,780
Maple trees get most of the attention, given

2102
01:16:05,780 --> 01:16:08,160
how common they are and how susceptible they

2103
01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:08,780
are to cracking.

2104
01:16:09,460 --> 01:16:12,400
Most hardwood trees that lose their leaves in

2105
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:14,880
the winter will crack if it gets cold

2106
01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:15,240
enough.

2107
01:16:15,740 --> 01:16:18,400
Conifers such as pine trees or spruce trees

2108
01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:19,560
can also crack as well.

2109
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:22,200
When the temperature gets down to about minus

2110
01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:25,400
20, that's when the sap freezes and you

2111
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:26,900
get this cracking occurring.

2112
01:16:27,540 --> 01:16:28,760
That's really cold, isn't it?

2113
01:16:28,960 --> 01:16:31,860
The upper Midwest gets these cold temperatures every

2114
01:16:31,860 --> 01:16:32,440
few years.

2115
01:16:32,440 --> 01:16:34,560
So trees are used to this.

2116
01:16:35,160 --> 01:16:36,400
They handle it.

2117
01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:39,320
They may have a physical deformation, but they

2118
01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:40,640
probably will live through it.

2119
01:16:40,860 --> 01:16:41,560
This is interesting.

2120
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:46,040
We have maple guys in Gitmo Nation who

2121
01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:46,940
do maple syrup.

2122
01:16:46,980 --> 01:16:48,540
You've received maple syrup from them.

2123
01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:49,440
So have I.

2124
01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:50,860
Yeah, I love maple syrup.

2125
01:16:51,060 --> 01:16:53,500
Email me and say, I've never seen this.

2126
01:16:54,300 --> 01:16:55,620
We've got maple trees.

2127
01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:59,460
Yeah, well, this is a guy who is

2128
01:16:59,460 --> 01:17:00,820
some sort of an expert.

2129
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:02,540
But I mean, maybe it doesn't get cold

2130
01:17:02,540 --> 01:17:05,380
enough where the maple trees are.

2131
01:17:05,480 --> 01:17:07,800
It has to be below 20, minus 20.

2132
01:17:08,060 --> 01:17:09,400
Minus 20.

2133
01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:10,560
Oh, that's OK.

2134
01:17:10,820 --> 01:17:11,900
That's very cold.

2135
01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:15,660
And now we play the second piece here.

2136
01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:18,300
Yeah, this is just kind of a follow

2137
01:17:18,300 --> 01:17:18,540
up.

2138
01:17:18,860 --> 01:17:22,280
Is there anything people can do to avoid

2139
01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:23,220
their trees cracking?

2140
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:26,940
Realistically, the most practical thing for a homeowner

2141
01:17:26,940 --> 01:17:29,060
with a small tree to do is wrap

2142
01:17:29,060 --> 01:17:30,520
the tree with tree wrap.

2143
01:17:31,100 --> 01:17:33,880
It's sort of like painter's tape or duct

2144
01:17:33,880 --> 01:17:36,080
tape that you wrap around the base of

2145
01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,180
the tree up to the first set of

2146
01:17:38,180 --> 01:17:38,880
lower branches.

2147
01:17:39,460 --> 01:17:42,880
This can help provide some insulation and hopefully

2148
01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:46,340
reduce the likelihood that that small tree is

2149
01:17:46,340 --> 01:17:48,580
going to reach that critical temperature at which

2150
01:17:48,580 --> 01:17:49,120
it cracks.

2151
01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:52,060
Bill McNee of the Wisconsin Department of Natural

2152
01:17:52,060 --> 01:17:55,060
Resources, we wish you and your colleagues and

2153
01:17:55,060 --> 01:17:57,320
everyone in Wisconsin a good weekend.

2154
01:17:57,480 --> 01:17:58,260
Thanks so much, sir.

2155
01:17:58,460 --> 01:17:59,300
Thank you for having me.

2156
01:17:59,700 --> 01:18:01,980
The more I think about it, I think

2157
01:18:01,980 --> 01:18:04,360
lots of these videos that were going around

2158
01:18:04,360 --> 01:18:06,160
might have been just AI generated.

2159
01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:07,140
You think?

2160
01:18:07,340 --> 01:18:08,780
It wouldn't be surprising, would it?

2161
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:10,920
I'd say half the stuff I'm seeing nowadays

2162
01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:11,980
is AI generated.

2163
01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:13,460
Well, funny you bring that up.

2164
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:15,980
Here to explain CBS News, my last correspondent,

2165
01:18:16,280 --> 01:18:16,880
Kelly O'Brien.

2166
01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:19,280
I was going to say, I should mention,

2167
01:18:19,420 --> 01:18:21,260
dogs do not dance.

2168
01:18:21,960 --> 01:18:22,080
OK?

2169
01:18:22,720 --> 01:18:23,380
Just note that.

2170
01:18:24,020 --> 01:18:24,960
Are you sure?

2171
01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:25,700
Are you sure?

2172
01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:28,000
Pretty sure they don't dance.

2173
01:18:28,060 --> 01:18:28,760
They don't dance.

2174
01:18:28,960 --> 01:18:31,360
Here to explain CBS News, Money Watch correspondent,

2175
01:18:31,560 --> 01:18:32,240
Kelly O'Grady.

2176
01:18:32,500 --> 01:18:33,140
Kelly, good morning.

2177
01:18:33,260 --> 01:18:35,700
So what is driving this push to clean

2178
01:18:35,700 --> 01:18:37,700
up this AI content and then what protections

2179
01:18:37,700 --> 01:18:39,620
are out there that YouTube will put in

2180
01:18:39,620 --> 01:18:39,900
place?

2181
01:18:40,140 --> 01:18:41,620
So, I mean, there's just been an explosion

2182
01:18:41,620 --> 01:18:43,520
of that low quality content, as you said.

2183
01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:46,260
To the extent that over a million YouTube

2184
01:18:46,260 --> 01:18:50,100
channels each day in December used AI technology

2185
01:18:50,100 --> 01:18:51,120
in creating those videos.

2186
01:18:51,120 --> 01:18:51,240
Technology.

2187
01:18:51,240 --> 01:18:51,700
So it is a lot.

2188
01:18:52,020 --> 01:18:53,340
And that creates a number of issues.

2189
01:18:53,580 --> 01:18:56,080
One, you have viewer trust issues.

2190
01:18:56,280 --> 01:18:57,760
You've got these deep fake videos that look

2191
01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:00,580
really real and people don't know if they

2192
01:19:00,580 --> 01:19:00,980
are.

2193
01:19:01,200 --> 01:19:03,500
And so that also leads to the platform

2194
01:19:03,500 --> 01:19:06,200
becoming low quality as a whole, potentially.

2195
01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:08,420
And all of those AI slot videos sort

2196
01:19:08,420 --> 01:19:11,620
of crowding out legitimate creators trying to make

2197
01:19:11,620 --> 01:19:13,140
a living, trying to bring us good content.

2198
01:19:13,140 --> 01:19:14,360
And that's, by the way, it's not good

2199
01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:16,140
for advertisers or brands either.

2200
01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:18,180
No company wants an ad running next to

2201
01:19:18,180 --> 01:19:19,500
a bad AI video.

2202
01:19:20,180 --> 01:19:21,260
You ask about protections.

2203
01:19:21,460 --> 01:19:25,220
YouTube specifically does require any creator that has

2204
01:19:25,220 --> 01:19:28,220
created an AI generated video to say so.

2205
01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:31,260
Their tool specifically, if you use a video

2206
01:19:31,260 --> 01:19:33,280
or you create a video using their tools,

2207
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:34,700
there is a label that comes up.

2208
01:19:34,700 --> 01:19:35,360
A label there so you know.

2209
01:19:35,420 --> 01:19:35,800
Exactly.

2210
01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:36,440
Exactly.

2211
01:19:36,700 --> 01:19:39,540
And then in general, the algorithm tries to

2212
01:19:39,540 --> 01:19:41,500
down rank low quality content.

2213
01:19:41,500 --> 01:19:42,680
It doesn't always work.

2214
01:19:42,740 --> 01:19:44,300
And it often comes down to people having

2215
01:19:44,300 --> 01:19:45,860
to do this when things are evolving so

2216
01:19:45,860 --> 01:19:46,140
quickly.

2217
01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:47,000
Yeah.

2218
01:19:47,800 --> 01:19:48,700
I'm happy.

2219
01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:53,380
The number one progenitor of AI is screwing

2220
01:19:53,380 --> 01:19:53,760
themselves.

2221
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:55,060
I completely agree.

2222
01:19:55,920 --> 01:19:58,120
I mean, you scroll through YouTube looking for

2223
01:19:58,120 --> 01:19:58,560
something.

2224
01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:01,540
First of all, all the images look like

2225
01:20:01,540 --> 01:20:02,120
our art.

2226
01:20:02,940 --> 01:20:05,000
You know, everything except for the cartoony ones.

2227
01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:08,940
It's all AI generated labels, you know, the

2228
01:20:08,940 --> 01:20:10,000
poster images.

2229
01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:12,660
Everything looks the same.

2230
01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:14,680
If it looks AI, you're going to presume

2231
01:20:14,680 --> 01:20:15,300
it's AI.

2232
01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:17,280
And then you play it.

2233
01:20:17,440 --> 01:20:18,520
And how many times, I don't know if

2234
01:20:18,520 --> 01:20:21,060
you've had this, where you're watching this video

2235
01:20:21,060 --> 01:20:23,480
and after three minutes, you're like, wait a

2236
01:20:23,480 --> 01:20:23,640
minute.

2237
01:20:24,020 --> 01:20:26,220
This is just stock footage rotating with a

2238
01:20:26,220 --> 01:20:26,740
voiceover.

2239
01:20:26,860 --> 01:20:28,080
There's nothing coming up here.

2240
01:20:28,840 --> 01:20:30,360
Yeah, I've had that happen.

2241
01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:32,360
It's quite annoying.

2242
01:20:32,560 --> 01:20:33,500
And it takes minutes.

2243
01:20:33,880 --> 01:20:36,340
It's almost like done on purpose as a

2244
01:20:36,340 --> 01:20:36,740
joke.

2245
01:20:37,340 --> 01:20:37,760
Oh, no.

2246
01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:40,940
My favorite thing is wait till the end.

2247
01:20:41,060 --> 01:20:42,220
Oh, yeah, wait till the end.

2248
01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:44,360
And there is nothing that happens.

2249
01:20:44,540 --> 01:20:46,740
Nothing just goes on and just ends.

2250
01:20:46,860 --> 01:20:48,400
You won't believe what happens.

2251
01:20:48,580 --> 01:20:49,840
Wait till the end of this video.

2252
01:20:50,100 --> 01:20:50,940
It's going to be great.

2253
01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:54,000
Because that used to mean something like five

2254
01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:54,800
years ago.

2255
01:20:55,480 --> 01:20:56,600
Wait for it.

2256
01:20:57,940 --> 01:20:59,560
And right on the heels of this, of

2257
01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:02,560
course, we have something called the Defiance Act.

2258
01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:06,440
And it has a celebrity at the forefront

2259
01:21:06,440 --> 01:21:11,160
of promoting this act with just a hilarious

2260
01:21:11,160 --> 01:21:14,140
side connotation in my book.

2261
01:21:14,340 --> 01:21:16,860
Paris Hilton was on Capitol Hill yesterday pushing

2262
01:21:16,860 --> 01:21:19,500
for the passing of the Defiance Act.

2263
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:22,000
And it would allow victims of sexually explicit

2264
01:21:22,000 --> 01:21:25,640
AI-generated deepfakes to take legal action against

2265
01:21:25,640 --> 01:21:28,320
the creators and distributors of that content.

2266
01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:30,960
Hilton spoke about the impact a leaked sex

2267
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:32,220
tape had on her life.

2268
01:21:32,620 --> 01:21:34,480
She spoke about the fears that girls and

2269
01:21:34,480 --> 01:21:37,540
women who could potentially become victims of the

2270
01:21:37,540 --> 01:21:38,480
AI pornography.

2271
01:21:38,860 --> 01:21:41,080
The bill is championed by New York Congresswoman

2272
01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:43,080
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

2273
01:21:43,080 --> 01:21:45,800
So what I find just amazing in this

2274
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:49,700
is that the impact the leaked sex tape,

2275
01:21:49,820 --> 01:21:53,020
which she filmed herself, had for Paris Hilton

2276
01:21:53,020 --> 01:21:55,460
was she became globally famous.

2277
01:21:56,420 --> 01:21:58,440
Just like Kim Kardashian.

2278
01:21:59,440 --> 01:22:01,340
I mean, they probably want this act passed

2279
01:22:01,340 --> 01:22:04,020
so that no other women can get up

2280
01:22:04,020 --> 01:22:05,360
into their level of fame.

2281
01:22:06,580 --> 01:22:07,860
This is crazy.

2282
01:22:08,140 --> 01:22:10,140
Well, that's an interesting analysis.

2283
01:22:10,140 --> 01:22:12,960
I mean, she didn't need money being a

2284
01:22:12,960 --> 01:22:17,000
Hilton heir, but she became just the thing.

2285
01:22:17,180 --> 01:22:19,120
And this kind of attention, the first thing

2286
01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:22,420
that got my attention in this attention grab

2287
01:22:22,420 --> 01:22:26,060
was they now have the opportunity to sue

2288
01:22:26,060 --> 01:22:26,680
the creators.

2289
01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:28,540
The creators are anonymous.

2290
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:32,500
They're like hackers and guys who live in

2291
01:22:32,500 --> 01:22:35,380
the basement and the kind of crazy guys

2292
01:22:35,380 --> 01:22:37,780
and some smart guys and everybody in between

2293
01:22:37,780 --> 01:22:39,880
who can do these AI things.

2294
01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:41,920
They do them and they slip stream them

2295
01:22:41,920 --> 01:22:44,520
into the system where they get passed around

2296
01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:45,400
by other people.

2297
01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:46,600
And you can't.

2298
01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:47,640
How are we going to sue?

2299
01:22:48,660 --> 01:22:51,600
Whoever posted it, probably if you post it

2300
01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:52,060
on YouTube.

2301
01:22:52,460 --> 01:22:52,720
I mean.

2302
01:22:54,480 --> 01:22:56,100
It's going to have to be you can't

2303
01:22:56,100 --> 01:22:57,600
track down any half the people that are

2304
01:22:57,600 --> 01:22:58,120
on YouTube.

2305
01:22:58,380 --> 01:23:01,060
You can't track down anybody on TikTok.

2306
01:23:01,420 --> 01:23:03,480
Well, I don't know.

2307
01:23:05,180 --> 01:23:06,080
Things have changed.

2308
01:23:06,260 --> 01:23:07,560
Terms of service change.

2309
01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:08,980
It's the deal is done.

2310
01:23:09,660 --> 01:23:13,040
An estimated 180 million TikTok users in the

2311
01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:15,220
U.S. had been waiting anxiously for the

2312
01:23:15,220 --> 01:23:16,780
fate of the app to be determined.

2313
01:23:17,280 --> 01:23:19,820
It had been banned by a 2024 law

2314
01:23:19,820 --> 01:23:22,380
signed by then President Joe Biden that came

2315
01:23:22,380 --> 01:23:24,280
into effect in January 2025.

2316
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:27,240
The law bans social media apps linked to

2317
01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:30,140
foreign governments like China from being available in

2318
01:23:30,140 --> 01:23:31,160
U.S. app stores.

2319
01:23:32,620 --> 01:23:35,340
But on taking office, President Trump signed a

2320
01:23:35,340 --> 01:23:38,380
series of executive orders providing for a delay

2321
01:23:38,380 --> 01:23:40,760
in enforcing the law to allow time for

2322
01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:43,100
U.S. investors to negotiate a deal with

2323
01:23:43,100 --> 01:23:44,500
a Chinese parent company.

2324
01:23:44,740 --> 01:23:47,300
President Trump acknowledged that users of the TikTok

2325
01:23:47,300 --> 01:23:49,620
app had played a significant role in his

2326
01:23:49,620 --> 01:23:50,420
election victory.

2327
01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:53,720
Essentially, with TikTok, I have the right to

2328
01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:55,540
either sell it or close it.

2329
01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:58,860
And Vice President J.D. Vance also played

2330
01:23:58,860 --> 01:24:00,420
a role in pushing for a deal.

2331
01:24:00,420 --> 01:24:01,580
Of course, we're going to keep on working

2332
01:24:01,580 --> 01:24:01,920
at it.

2333
01:24:01,980 --> 01:24:04,760
But this deal really does mean that Americans

2334
01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:06,900
can use TikTok, but actually use it with

2335
01:24:06,900 --> 01:24:08,420
more confidence than they had in the past

2336
01:24:08,420 --> 01:24:09,900
because their data is going to be secure

2337
01:24:09,900 --> 01:24:11,060
and it's not going to be used.

2338
01:24:13,260 --> 01:24:15,660
Oh, I can use it with more confidence.

2339
01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:17,040
Confidence of what?

2340
01:24:17,460 --> 01:24:21,380
I'm watching dancing dogs and fat chicks falling

2341
01:24:21,380 --> 01:24:23,520
on a on a balanced beam and all

2342
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:23,880
this other.

2343
01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:25,680
What are they talking about?

2344
01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:27,640
I'm only watching it for the amusement.

2345
01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:30,900
That Americans can use TikTok, but actually use

2346
01:24:30,900 --> 01:24:32,320
it with more confidence than they had in

2347
01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:33,640
the past because their data is going to

2348
01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:35,100
be secure and it's not going to be

2349
01:24:35,100 --> 01:24:37,600
used as a propaganda weapon against our fellow

2350
01:24:37,600 --> 01:24:38,120
citizens.

2351
01:24:38,340 --> 01:24:40,240
Full details of the deal are still to

2352
01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:40,780
be revealed.

2353
01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:44,260
The parent company, ByteDance, will still control a

2354
01:24:44,260 --> 01:24:46,460
fifth of TikTok equity, but it will be

2355
01:24:46,460 --> 01:24:48,900
joined by U.S. tech company Oracle, a

2356
01:24:48,900 --> 01:24:51,780
private equity firm, Silver Lake, and the Emirati

2357
01:24:51,780 --> 01:24:54,140
-backed investment firm, MGX.

2358
01:24:54,140 --> 01:24:57,200
Oracle is owned by Trump supporter Larry Ellison,

2359
01:24:57,400 --> 01:25:00,120
who had previously accused the platform of being

2360
01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:01,340
pro-Palestinian.

2361
01:25:01,660 --> 01:25:05,460
Oracle will manage TikTok's data security, algorithm and

2362
01:25:05,460 --> 01:25:09,180
cloud computing, essentially moving control into U.S.

2363
01:25:09,260 --> 01:25:09,620
hands.

2364
01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:12,180
Yeah, we're going to see dancing Israelis now

2365
01:25:12,180 --> 01:25:13,340
on the balance beam.

2366
01:25:13,440 --> 01:25:16,420
So, you know, all I learned from that

2367
01:25:16,420 --> 01:25:20,180
report, because I have never seen a pro

2368
01:25:20,180 --> 01:25:22,260
-Palestinian TikTok ever.

2369
01:25:22,500 --> 01:25:22,700
No.

2370
01:25:22,700 --> 01:25:25,000
All I got from that report is that

2371
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:28,020
the algo has determined that Larry Ellison is

2372
01:25:28,020 --> 01:25:31,560
on TikTok looking for Palestinian material.

2373
01:25:31,940 --> 01:25:32,380
Bingo.

2374
01:25:32,780 --> 01:25:34,540
And he finds one, he goes, oh my

2375
01:25:34,540 --> 01:25:35,840
God, let me look at it again and

2376
01:25:35,840 --> 01:25:36,140
again.

2377
01:25:36,500 --> 01:25:37,800
And then next thing you know, he's getting

2378
01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:38,460
tons of it.

2379
01:25:38,740 --> 01:25:39,500
Let me share it.

2380
01:25:39,580 --> 01:25:40,240
I got to share it.

2381
01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:41,360
I got to share it with my group.

2382
01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:42,060
He's sharing it.

2383
01:25:42,540 --> 01:25:46,960
So now Larry, the tech genius, has decided

2384
01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:49,200
that that's all TikTok is because he doesn't

2385
01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:50,240
understand it at all.

2386
01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:51,320
Is that what I'm being told?

2387
01:25:51,380 --> 01:25:52,300
That's what I'm being told.

2388
01:25:52,300 --> 01:25:55,400
Well, the terms and conditions have changed.

2389
01:25:55,720 --> 01:26:00,080
Interesting that there is a Middle Eastern co

2390
01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:02,100
-owner of this because, of course, you know,

2391
01:26:02,260 --> 01:26:04,180
we have to have confidence that it's not

2392
01:26:04,180 --> 01:26:05,760
China who has our data.

2393
01:26:06,480 --> 01:26:07,800
The language of the new policy I'm reading

2394
01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:09,460
from The New York Times was more sweeping.

2395
01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:12,040
It said TikTok would use the data collected

2396
01:26:12,040 --> 01:26:14,580
from users and third parties to show customized

2397
01:26:14,580 --> 01:26:17,760
ads and other sponsored content, both on TikTok

2398
01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:19,640
and on other websites.

2399
01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:22,200
This is exactly what they accused China of

2400
01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:22,480
doing.

2401
01:26:23,200 --> 01:26:25,780
Users can adjust their advertising permissions in the

2402
01:26:25,780 --> 01:26:26,040
app?

2403
01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:26,480
Sure.

2404
01:26:27,340 --> 01:26:28,020
Yeah, right.

2405
01:26:29,680 --> 01:26:34,520
So this was always about, and it kind

2406
01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:36,000
of backfired because it was Google.

2407
01:26:36,460 --> 01:26:39,700
Google and Facebook, they hated this because it

2408
01:26:39,700 --> 01:26:42,200
was taking their lunch, their lunch money.

2409
01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:43,580
It was billions of dollars.

2410
01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:45,800
And now, and I'm sure these guys, I'm

2411
01:26:45,800 --> 01:26:47,020
sure they'll run it into the ground.

2412
01:26:47,100 --> 01:26:48,440
There's no vision behind it.

2413
01:26:49,020 --> 01:26:50,860
You know, that's fine.

2414
01:26:53,160 --> 01:26:54,460
Yeah, they will.

2415
01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:54,980
You're right.

2416
01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:56,100
Yeah, I don't see it.

2417
01:26:56,200 --> 01:26:56,660
They're always right.

2418
01:26:56,800 --> 01:26:57,660
They have all this stuff.

2419
01:26:58,100 --> 01:26:59,960
Boots on the ground from one of our

2420
01:26:59,960 --> 01:27:05,660
Department of War producers, anonymous for obvious reasons,

2421
01:27:05,780 --> 01:27:08,400
wants to provide some quick feedback after attempting

2422
01:27:08,400 --> 01:27:11,280
to use the Department of War's Gen AI.

2423
01:27:12,700 --> 01:27:15,700
Now, do we recall what this Gen AI

2424
01:27:15,700 --> 01:27:16,780
was supposed to do?

2425
01:27:16,780 --> 01:27:18,880
I don't recall, but I do.

2426
01:27:18,960 --> 01:27:21,320
I do recall it, but I don't recall

2427
01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:22,360
what it's supposed to do.

2428
01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:25,020
Well, it was going to help with operations.

2429
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:25,860
Oh, yeah.

2430
01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:27,780
It was going to be a lifesaver.

2431
01:27:28,620 --> 01:27:28,740
Yeah.

2432
01:27:29,260 --> 01:27:31,360
So he says right now, still the only

2433
01:27:31,360 --> 01:27:32,960
LLM implemented is Gemini.

2434
01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:39,280
Grok, ChatGPT and Claude are not accessible yet.

2435
01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:41,720
So we tried a couple of different things.

2436
01:27:41,780 --> 01:27:44,520
He says the military has probably the largest

2437
01:27:44,520 --> 01:27:46,180
corpus of data to pull from.

2438
01:27:46,180 --> 01:27:48,360
So my first attempt, I figured I should

2439
01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:49,880
be able to get Gemini to format a

2440
01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:52,860
standard naval letter, considering there's plenty of information

2441
01:27:52,860 --> 01:27:53,480
to pull from.

2442
01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:54,080
Nope.

2443
01:27:54,600 --> 01:27:56,040
In fact, the amount of time it took

2444
01:27:56,040 --> 01:27:58,140
me to generate a simple message in official

2445
01:27:58,140 --> 01:28:01,700
formatting with multiple prompts attempting to correct it

2446
01:28:01,700 --> 01:28:03,700
took me well beyond the time span of

2447
01:28:03,700 --> 01:28:05,420
just creating one from scratch.

2448
01:28:05,960 --> 01:28:06,140
Right.

2449
01:28:06,280 --> 01:28:09,180
This is notable because this is the case

2450
01:28:09,180 --> 01:28:10,080
with most AI.

2451
01:28:10,080 --> 01:28:12,340
Second, I knew this was a long shot,

2452
01:28:12,480 --> 01:28:15,220
but I had a brag sheet for recognizing

2453
01:28:15,220 --> 01:28:18,080
someone for their service during the quarter, as

2454
01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:20,980
we call them, sailor, soldier, NCO, et cetera,

2455
01:28:21,060 --> 01:28:21,780
of the quarter.

2456
01:28:22,300 --> 01:28:23,860
Packages have a standard format.

2457
01:28:23,980 --> 01:28:27,580
The brag sheet has the relevant data points

2458
01:28:27,580 --> 01:28:28,040
to input.

2459
01:28:28,400 --> 01:28:29,780
In theory, it should have just plugged and

2460
01:28:29,780 --> 01:28:31,180
played what was needed.

2461
01:28:31,340 --> 01:28:33,260
Instead, repeat of above.

2462
01:28:34,040 --> 01:28:38,080
Last attempt, a real-world case, operational planning.

2463
01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:39,200
This was a very simple test.

2464
01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:41,640
I grabbed grid coordinates for a known area

2465
01:28:41,640 --> 01:28:43,480
that could support one of our rotary wing

2466
01:28:43,480 --> 01:28:46,980
platforms, that's helicopters, for a landing zone and

2467
01:28:46,980 --> 01:28:51,000
prompted, would these grid coordinates support CV22 land

2468
01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:51,360
zone?

2469
01:28:51,980 --> 01:28:54,520
I presume that's an Osprey.

2470
01:28:55,120 --> 01:28:58,440
What I got was generic information about theorized

2471
01:28:58,440 --> 01:29:01,660
capability, but no recommendation because it couldn't assess

2472
01:29:01,660 --> 01:29:02,340
the area.

2473
01:29:02,700 --> 01:29:05,400
While we have individuals that specifically do this

2474
01:29:05,400 --> 01:29:05,880
analysis.

2475
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:08,240
I had to do this site assessment previously

2476
01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:10,740
in my career for offhand work, for on

2477
01:29:10,740 --> 01:29:14,380
-the-fly medevac landing zones, LZs, landing zones,

2478
01:29:14,740 --> 01:29:16,840
on public plan to support training cycles.

2479
01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:18,660
Not a big ask, but if it can't

2480
01:29:18,660 --> 01:29:20,780
do this basic task, I doubt it can

2481
01:29:20,780 --> 01:29:22,160
do anything very complex.

2482
01:29:23,140 --> 01:29:26,640
So, these are three of the things that

2483
01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:29,320
were promised that would take the Department of

2484
01:29:29,320 --> 01:29:31,860
War into the next century of technology.

2485
01:29:32,640 --> 01:29:34,500
And it cannot do it.

2486
01:29:34,500 --> 01:29:36,540
It did, it took it into the next

2487
01:29:36,540 --> 01:29:37,020
century.

2488
01:29:38,220 --> 01:29:40,580
That is the next century, hello.

2489
01:29:41,140 --> 01:29:43,840
There is some exciting news for both you

2490
01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:44,280
and I.

2491
01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:47,600
This kind of goes along with my idea

2492
01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:50,860
that AI, or whatever you want to call

2493
01:29:50,860 --> 01:29:55,640
this, is really great when decentralized, when you

2494
01:29:55,640 --> 01:29:56,580
can have it at home.

2495
01:29:58,360 --> 01:30:01,900
Enter QUEN3, Q-U-E-N-3-T

2496
01:30:01,900 --> 01:30:02,440
-T-S.

2497
01:30:03,140 --> 01:30:05,460
This is from the Chinese.

2498
01:30:05,760 --> 01:30:08,480
They have open-sourced a very lightweight model,

2499
01:30:08,780 --> 01:30:12,300
which does exactly what 11 Labs does.

2500
01:30:12,980 --> 01:30:16,700
And you can run it on home computer

2501
01:30:16,700 --> 01:30:17,200
stuff.

2502
01:30:18,900 --> 01:30:20,700
And there is a GitHub, you can download

2503
01:30:20,700 --> 01:30:22,120
it, you can download the models.

2504
01:30:23,080 --> 01:30:24,680
And I've tried it.

2505
01:30:25,420 --> 01:30:27,500
Give me the name of it again.

2506
01:30:28,360 --> 01:30:28,880
QUEN?

2507
01:30:29,100 --> 01:30:34,280
That's the, what's the big Chinese Amazon?

2508
01:30:36,780 --> 01:30:37,820
What's the Chinese Amazon?

2509
01:30:38,480 --> 01:30:39,000
I don't know.

2510
01:30:39,160 --> 01:30:39,680
Yeah, you do.

2511
01:30:42,080 --> 01:30:43,120
The big...

2512
01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:43,620
T-MU?

2513
01:30:43,820 --> 01:30:44,220
No, no, no.

2514
01:30:44,220 --> 01:30:44,660
To me, it's T-MU.

2515
01:30:44,940 --> 01:30:46,140
The big one you buy all the crap

2516
01:30:46,140 --> 01:30:47,060
on.

2517
01:30:48,060 --> 01:30:48,820
SHI-MU?

2518
01:30:49,020 --> 01:30:49,960
No, no.

2519
01:30:50,320 --> 01:30:50,680
SHEN?

2520
01:30:51,540 --> 01:30:54,680
No, not T-MU.

2521
01:30:54,980 --> 01:30:56,700
The one that had the guy who got

2522
01:30:56,700 --> 01:30:57,320
kicked out.

2523
01:30:57,940 --> 01:30:58,860
Oh, okay.

2524
01:30:58,980 --> 01:30:59,920
I can't remember the name.

2525
01:31:00,860 --> 01:31:01,340
Alibaba.

2526
01:31:01,560 --> 01:31:02,040
Alibaba.

2527
01:31:02,100 --> 01:31:04,040
Yeah, Alibaba director.

2528
01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:05,080
Low-T.

2529
01:31:05,220 --> 01:31:05,780
Low-T.

2530
01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:06,260
Instababa.

2531
01:31:06,500 --> 01:31:07,580
It was Low-T.

2532
01:31:08,680 --> 01:31:11,880
Q-U-E-N-3-T-T-S.

2533
01:31:12,600 --> 01:31:14,960
They have a little example.

2534
01:31:15,780 --> 01:31:17,520
You can run it on one of their

2535
01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:18,560
cloud servers.

2536
01:31:18,580 --> 01:31:18,980
I like it.

2537
01:31:19,000 --> 01:31:20,060
It's a catchy name.

2538
01:31:20,220 --> 01:31:20,940
No, it's not.

2539
01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:21,400
It's horrible.

2540
01:31:21,400 --> 01:31:22,740
It's a catchy name, yeah.

2541
01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:24,140
QUEN-3-T-T-S.

2542
01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:25,860
Yeah, that's it.

2543
01:31:25,860 --> 01:31:28,120
I'll be loading this up on my Linux

2544
01:31:28,120 --> 01:31:28,920
system.

2545
01:31:30,080 --> 01:31:31,680
Oh, it runs on Linux?

2546
01:31:33,100 --> 01:31:34,340
You can run it on...

2547
01:31:34,340 --> 01:31:37,440
I think you can run it on almost

2548
01:31:37,440 --> 01:31:37,900
anything.

2549
01:31:38,060 --> 01:31:40,440
It's easiest to run it on Linux, yeah.

2550
01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:43,700
Because, you know, you have that open web,

2551
01:31:43,820 --> 01:31:44,900
open UI, whatever.

2552
01:31:45,120 --> 01:31:46,760
You can load all the open source models

2553
01:31:46,760 --> 01:31:47,080
on.

2554
01:31:49,400 --> 01:31:50,520
But it's good.

2555
01:31:51,160 --> 01:31:52,380
It's really surprising.

2556
01:31:52,500 --> 01:31:54,420
And you can also sample your own voice.

2557
01:31:55,440 --> 01:31:57,080
So that's what I'll be trying.

2558
01:31:57,140 --> 01:31:58,220
That's what I've been wanting to do with

2559
01:31:58,220 --> 01:31:59,620
11 Labs, but I only use the free

2560
01:31:59,620 --> 01:31:59,900
version.

2561
01:32:00,040 --> 01:32:00,560
They won't let me do the free version.

2562
01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:03,220
No, 11 Labs costs you like $199 a

2563
01:32:03,220 --> 01:32:04,040
month to do that.

2564
01:32:04,060 --> 01:32:05,260
I'm still not paying.

2565
01:32:05,420 --> 01:32:06,720
No, but you're going to use this and

2566
01:32:06,720 --> 01:32:07,400
you're going to love it.

2567
01:32:09,320 --> 01:32:11,260
You sound correct, sir.

2568
01:32:11,460 --> 01:32:12,340
This has John C.

2569
01:32:12,380 --> 01:32:13,780
Dvorak written all over it.

2570
01:32:13,820 --> 01:32:15,640
I find this fascinating.

2571
01:32:16,340 --> 01:32:18,940
This is exactly the problem these guys have.

2572
01:32:19,260 --> 01:32:20,940
They're all trying to make all these goodies

2573
01:32:20,940 --> 01:32:23,520
for everybody, and meanwhile, the China is just

2574
01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:24,640
like, you have this for free.

2575
01:32:26,120 --> 01:32:27,680
They're screwing with these guys.

2576
01:32:27,900 --> 01:32:28,920
They really are.

2577
01:32:29,460 --> 01:32:30,220
It's good.

2578
01:32:30,660 --> 01:32:32,340
Well, if it's as good as you say.

2579
01:32:33,280 --> 01:32:35,820
I think I've only seen, I've only done

2580
01:32:35,820 --> 01:32:36,300
the demo.

2581
01:32:36,900 --> 01:32:38,960
I'll get my Spuds Oakley voice.

2582
01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:40,680
I'll take it from 11 Labs and give

2583
01:32:40,680 --> 01:32:41,980
it to this system.

2584
01:32:42,100 --> 01:32:43,140
I can get it for free.

2585
01:32:43,220 --> 01:32:44,000
I can have it read a book.

2586
01:32:44,460 --> 01:32:45,900
Well, let me give you an example.

2587
01:32:46,700 --> 01:32:48,320
I think they have.

2588
01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:52,700
First of all, 11 Labs is a terrific

2589
01:32:52,700 --> 01:32:55,120
product, so I'm not going to demean them.

2590
01:32:55,220 --> 01:32:57,280
Except they just don't need to pay hundreds

2591
01:32:57,280 --> 01:32:59,540
of dollars a year for anything.

2592
01:32:59,820 --> 01:33:01,740
For a little gag.

2593
01:33:03,140 --> 01:33:03,360
Yeah.

2594
01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:04,220
No, I agree.

2595
01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:05,280
You don't need that.

2596
01:33:06,640 --> 01:33:07,720
I can't find the.

2597
01:33:09,660 --> 01:33:11,000
I'll have to find the.

2598
01:33:12,540 --> 01:33:15,040
I'll just load it.

2599
01:33:15,100 --> 01:33:15,940
I'm going to load it and we're going

2600
01:33:15,940 --> 01:33:16,440
to test it.

2601
01:33:16,440 --> 01:33:17,940
Hugging face demo.

2602
01:33:18,100 --> 01:33:19,260
Here we go on hugging face.

2603
01:33:20,440 --> 01:33:20,920
Okay.

2604
01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:23,740
Give me some text.

2605
01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:25,860
Not too long, just because it's a demo.

2606
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:27,620
Give me something for it to say.

2607
01:33:28,540 --> 01:33:28,760
Okay.

2608
01:33:28,880 --> 01:33:30,360
Now is the time for all good men

2609
01:33:30,360 --> 01:33:31,940
to come to the aid of their country.

2610
01:33:36,530 --> 01:33:36,890
Okay.

2611
01:33:38,010 --> 01:33:40,050
Now, describe the voice.

2612
01:33:40,910 --> 01:33:41,890
Just describe it.

2613
01:33:42,110 --> 01:33:42,630
The tone.

2614
01:33:42,870 --> 01:33:45,010
A husky female lesbian.

2615
01:33:45,790 --> 01:33:47,610
Husky female lesbian.

2616
01:33:48,030 --> 01:33:48,390
Okay.

2617
01:33:48,390 --> 01:33:51,010
Any particular intonation?

2618
01:33:51,410 --> 01:33:52,210
With a lisp.

2619
01:33:56,840 --> 01:33:57,480
Okay.

2620
01:33:57,880 --> 01:34:00,460
I'm going to generate the audio.

2621
01:34:01,540 --> 01:34:04,700
Zero GPU queue waiting for a GPU to

2622
01:34:04,700 --> 01:34:05,460
become available.

2623
01:34:05,680 --> 01:34:07,320
Successfully acquired a GPU.

2624
01:34:07,540 --> 01:34:08,260
This is exciting.

2625
01:34:08,620 --> 01:34:10,840
We've acquired a zero GPU GPU.

2626
01:34:11,080 --> 01:34:12,280
I'm not quite sure what that means.

2627
01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:14,400
The progress bar is moving to the left.

2628
01:34:14,720 --> 01:34:16,840
I see a waveform starting to appear.

2629
01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:21,440
Processing 17, 19, 20 seconds of 26.3

2630
01:34:21,440 --> 01:34:21,840
seconds.

2631
01:34:21,840 --> 01:34:23,560
This is so exciting, John.

2632
01:34:23,720 --> 01:34:26,280
We're about to hear your husky female lesbian

2633
01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:26,800
with a lisp.

2634
01:34:27,020 --> 01:34:27,520
Here we go.

2635
01:34:27,660 --> 01:34:28,220
Here we go.

2636
01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:31,760
Now is the time for all good men

2637
01:34:31,760 --> 01:34:35,760
to come to the aid of their country.

2638
01:34:36,220 --> 01:34:37,960
No lisp, but it wasn't bad.

2639
01:34:38,260 --> 01:34:39,320
It was close.

2640
01:34:39,540 --> 01:34:39,880
Yeah.

2641
01:34:40,860 --> 01:34:41,820
Now, let me just.

2642
01:34:42,240 --> 01:34:43,700
It was a nice husky voice.

2643
01:34:44,020 --> 01:34:45,780
Speaking excitedly.

2644
01:34:45,940 --> 01:34:47,440
Maybe we need to add the.

2645
01:34:47,700 --> 01:34:48,340
Yeah, do that.

2646
01:34:48,540 --> 01:34:49,520
Oh, I got an error.

2647
01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:51,460
Oh, you reached your quota.

2648
01:34:52,160 --> 01:34:53,300
Create pro account.

2649
01:34:57,920 --> 01:34:59,360
You didn't register.

2650
01:34:59,640 --> 01:35:01,480
The Chinese are the same as every other

2651
01:35:01,480 --> 01:35:02,700
Silicon Valley company.

2652
01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:04,460
Yeah, they're the same douche bags as all

2653
01:35:04,460 --> 01:35:05,760
the other software people.

2654
01:35:08,260 --> 01:35:09,420
Why not?

2655
01:35:14,600 --> 01:35:17,860
I only generated two of these while testing

2656
01:35:17,860 --> 01:35:19,620
it before the show, and then I reached

2657
01:35:19,620 --> 01:35:20,380
my quota.

2658
01:35:20,700 --> 01:35:21,740
Thanks, hugging face.

2659
01:35:24,580 --> 01:35:25,480
I'll give it a shot.

2660
01:35:25,540 --> 01:35:26,680
I'll load it up, and we'll have some

2661
01:35:26,680 --> 01:35:28,680
fun with it in a week from now.

2662
01:35:29,060 --> 01:35:29,780
We'll have some fun.

2663
01:35:31,580 --> 01:35:32,240
All right.

2664
01:35:32,860 --> 01:35:33,400
Let's see.

2665
01:35:33,660 --> 01:35:35,560
I haven't asked Adam for a little side

2666
01:35:35,560 --> 01:35:36,080
trip here.

2667
01:35:36,520 --> 01:35:36,760
All right.

2668
01:35:37,080 --> 01:35:39,240
All right, everybody.

2669
01:35:39,500 --> 01:35:41,160
It's time to ask Adam.

2670
01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:41,940
All right.

2671
01:35:42,020 --> 01:35:42,460
What do we have?

2672
01:35:42,540 --> 01:35:43,960
I want to preface this by talking.

2673
01:35:44,060 --> 01:35:46,900
This is from the CBS Evening News.

2674
01:35:46,900 --> 01:35:50,700
And Barry Weiss is under nothing but relentless

2675
01:35:50,700 --> 01:35:56,600
attack, including from your buddy, Megan Kelly, who

2676
01:35:56,600 --> 01:35:57,640
called her a lesbian.

2677
01:35:57,920 --> 01:35:58,280
What?

2678
01:36:00,180 --> 01:36:01,940
Tina, how come you haven't?

2679
01:36:02,200 --> 01:36:03,360
Tina should have told me this.

2680
01:36:03,560 --> 01:36:05,440
She's always on that tip.

2681
01:36:06,060 --> 01:36:07,560
She knows all this stuff.

2682
01:36:07,600 --> 01:36:08,220
I'm surprised.

2683
01:36:11,580 --> 01:36:14,360
So Barry Weiss is under attack.

2684
01:36:14,460 --> 01:36:16,440
And there's a good article in The Ringer.

2685
01:36:16,440 --> 01:36:18,360
People just look up The Ringer and find

2686
01:36:18,360 --> 01:36:18,500
it.

2687
01:36:19,900 --> 01:36:22,020
Either search for Barry Weiss or CBS News.

2688
01:36:22,580 --> 01:36:26,260
How about Tony Ducapole, who everyone doesn't like

2689
01:36:26,260 --> 01:36:29,020
him either, because he's too kind of a

2690
01:36:29,020 --> 01:36:29,140
wimp.

2691
01:36:29,360 --> 01:36:32,120
Isn't he the guy that introduced Candace and

2692
01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:32,620
her beard?

2693
01:36:34,440 --> 01:36:34,740
Yeah.

2694
01:36:37,900 --> 01:36:41,980
According to Megan Kelly, and this is secondhand,

2695
01:36:42,060 --> 01:36:43,860
because this was written in this article.

2696
01:36:45,520 --> 01:36:49,140
She says that Ducapole was picked as the

2697
01:36:49,140 --> 01:36:52,360
anchor because that's a lesbian's ideal of a

2698
01:36:52,360 --> 01:36:52,780
man.

2699
01:36:53,540 --> 01:36:53,640
Really?

2700
01:36:54,180 --> 01:36:54,600
Yeah.

2701
01:36:54,740 --> 01:36:55,400
Because it went on.

2702
01:36:55,460 --> 01:36:56,240
It's quite funny.

2703
01:36:56,800 --> 01:36:57,800
But they go on and on.

2704
01:36:58,220 --> 01:37:00,880
I actually think he does a good job,

2705
01:37:01,060 --> 01:37:01,760
to be honest about it.

2706
01:37:01,780 --> 01:37:02,720
I think he's fine.

2707
01:37:02,840 --> 01:37:04,660
He's as good as Tom Yamas.

2708
01:37:04,940 --> 01:37:05,140
Yeah.

2709
01:37:05,460 --> 01:37:07,020
And some of these other guys.

2710
01:37:07,420 --> 01:37:07,940
He just has to look pretty.

2711
01:37:08,020 --> 01:37:09,700
Just look pretty and read the prompters.

2712
01:37:09,940 --> 01:37:11,000
It's not all that hard.

2713
01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:11,600
Yeah.

2714
01:37:11,680 --> 01:37:13,020
That's basically right.

2715
01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:19,440
But the problem that's not correctable is the

2716
01:37:19,440 --> 01:37:21,620
staff, the infrastructure.

2717
01:37:22,480 --> 01:37:23,280
I've said this.

2718
01:37:23,340 --> 01:37:24,240
We've said this on the show.

2719
01:37:24,300 --> 01:37:25,000
It's kind of a theme.

2720
01:37:25,380 --> 01:37:27,820
Don't hire woke people, because once they get

2721
01:37:27,820 --> 01:37:31,320
in your organization, they contaminate it and ruin

2722
01:37:31,320 --> 01:37:31,560
it.

2723
01:37:31,700 --> 01:37:31,800
Yeah.

2724
01:37:31,860 --> 01:37:32,280
It's a problem.

2725
01:37:33,080 --> 01:37:35,120
And so it's the writing in the back

2726
01:37:35,120 --> 01:37:37,460
rooms and the reporters that are all a

2727
01:37:37,460 --> 01:37:39,120
bunch of Democrats that are in there, and

2728
01:37:39,120 --> 01:37:40,900
you can't get rid of them overnight.

2729
01:37:41,040 --> 01:37:41,700
You never will.

2730
01:37:41,700 --> 01:37:43,420
And so here's this report.

2731
01:37:43,480 --> 01:37:45,420
So this becomes an Ask Adam, because it's

2732
01:37:45,420 --> 01:37:46,040
so stupid.

2733
01:37:47,880 --> 01:37:49,200
This is Ask Adam.

2734
01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:51,020
This is about the murder rate.

2735
01:37:51,760 --> 01:37:53,000
And this is the question.

2736
01:37:54,000 --> 01:37:56,420
Murders dropped by more than 20 percent last

2737
01:37:56,420 --> 01:37:58,260
year, down to what may be the lowest

2738
01:37:58,260 --> 01:38:00,640
murder rate in more than a century, according

2739
01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:01,320
to a new study.

2740
01:38:01,420 --> 01:38:04,160
The Council on Criminal Justice says it crunched

2741
01:38:04,160 --> 01:38:06,300
numbers in 40 large cities and found that

2742
01:38:06,300 --> 01:38:08,540
carjackings and shoplifting are also down.

2743
01:38:08,940 --> 01:38:09,740
And the cause?

2744
01:38:09,940 --> 01:38:12,920
Mostly it's Adam.

2745
01:38:13,580 --> 01:38:14,680
Answer the question, go.

2746
01:38:15,080 --> 01:38:17,860
So my question is, the cause of the

2747
01:38:17,860 --> 01:38:20,420
drop of the carjackings and murder rate?

2748
01:38:21,180 --> 01:38:22,780
What is the cause?

2749
01:38:23,600 --> 01:38:26,080
Don't forget, this is a hundred years.

2750
01:38:26,640 --> 01:38:26,940
Oh.

2751
01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:28,500
A hundred years of murders.

2752
01:38:28,580 --> 01:38:28,980
I know the answer.

2753
01:38:28,980 --> 01:38:29,560
They're down.

2754
01:38:29,560 --> 01:38:30,320
I know the answer.

2755
01:38:30,540 --> 01:38:31,440
I know the answer.

2756
01:38:32,120 --> 01:38:32,400
Okay.

2757
01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:33,740
Climate change.

2758
01:38:35,720 --> 01:38:36,880
That, almost.

2759
01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:38,240
Almost.

2760
01:38:38,820 --> 01:38:39,200
Hold on.

2761
01:38:40,500 --> 01:38:41,640
And the cause?

2762
01:38:41,920 --> 01:38:44,640
Mostly it says a return to normal after

2763
01:38:44,640 --> 01:38:45,320
the pandemic.

2764
01:38:46,540 --> 01:38:47,460
Close enough.

2765
01:38:47,620 --> 01:38:47,860
Yeah.

2766
01:38:48,300 --> 01:38:49,440
COVID, wait a minute.

2767
01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:51,360
COVID was a hundred years ago.

2768
01:38:51,480 --> 01:38:52,520
Is that what they're telling us?

2769
01:38:53,020 --> 01:38:56,960
So a hundred years ago, after COVID, it's

2770
01:38:56,960 --> 01:38:58,840
gone down because of the end of COVID.

2771
01:38:59,080 --> 01:39:00,340
Are you kidding me?

2772
01:39:00,440 --> 01:39:02,640
What kind of analysis, what logic is it?

2773
01:39:02,700 --> 01:39:03,540
Where's the logic?

2774
01:39:04,060 --> 01:39:06,280
They said a hundred years, not five.

2775
01:39:09,380 --> 01:39:11,100
It should have been climate change.

2776
01:39:11,200 --> 01:39:12,400
It would have been much better news.

2777
01:39:12,640 --> 01:39:14,520
Climate change would have been a better, actually

2778
01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:16,140
would have been a better answer than that.

2779
01:39:16,380 --> 01:39:16,480
Yeah.

2780
01:39:17,580 --> 01:39:20,620
Well, while we're doing fun stuff, picked up

2781
01:39:20,620 --> 01:39:25,800
a Politico interview with the gay general Patton,

2782
01:39:26,420 --> 01:39:27,900
known as Scott Besant.

2783
01:39:28,660 --> 01:39:31,880
We had a conversation about his script writing,

2784
01:39:32,520 --> 01:39:34,940
that someone had written these scripts for him.

2785
01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:39,040
You know, if someone's writing scripts, they're giving

2786
01:39:39,040 --> 01:39:41,280
him one-liners and he's good at remembering.

2787
01:39:41,520 --> 01:39:42,060
Listen.

2788
01:39:42,420 --> 01:39:46,760
Some of the European leaders have gotten criticism

2789
01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:50,760
from Democrats, people like Gavin Newsom.

2790
01:39:50,980 --> 01:39:52,300
Cardi is actually one of the few people

2791
01:39:52,300 --> 01:39:53,440
that Newsom has praised.

2792
01:39:53,780 --> 01:39:56,440
He said he brought knee pads for some

2793
01:39:56,440 --> 01:39:59,500
of the other European leaders that he thinks

2794
01:39:59,500 --> 01:40:03,460
have been too accommodating to the president.

2795
01:40:04,420 --> 01:40:06,780
I think Gavin Newsom may be cracking up

2796
01:40:06,780 --> 01:40:08,140
with some of these things he's saying.

2797
01:40:08,620 --> 01:40:09,740
I think he may be in over his

2798
01:40:09,740 --> 01:40:10,140
hairdo.

2799
01:40:11,360 --> 01:40:13,760
And being on the national stage is very

2800
01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:17,920
different than being governor of California with no

2801
01:40:17,920 --> 01:40:18,640
signature achievements.

2802
01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:22,640
But to say strange things like, President Trump

2803
01:40:22,640 --> 01:40:24,160
is a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

2804
01:40:24,460 --> 01:40:25,500
What the hell does that mean?

2805
01:40:25,840 --> 01:40:27,320
You know, I could say Gavin Newsom is

2806
01:40:27,320 --> 01:40:29,700
a brontosaurus with a brain the size of

2807
01:40:29,700 --> 01:40:30,020
a walnut.

2808
01:40:31,220 --> 01:40:33,480
And if he brought the knee pads, maybe

2809
01:40:33,480 --> 01:40:35,500
that was for his meeting with Alex Soros.

2810
01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:36,100
I don't know.

2811
01:40:37,680 --> 01:40:38,240
Yeah.

2812
01:40:39,440 --> 01:40:41,420
The knee pads thing is going to haunt

2813
01:40:41,420 --> 01:40:42,120
him forever.

2814
01:40:42,620 --> 01:40:44,840
Yeah, but the memes are already out there.

2815
01:40:44,900 --> 01:40:47,140
But to have Scott Besant say this, it's

2816
01:40:47,140 --> 01:40:49,020
just, it's entertaining.

2817
01:40:49,020 --> 01:40:51,680
No, there's something particularly, yes.

2818
01:40:51,860 --> 01:40:57,040
It's actually, it's an amplification of the insult

2819
01:40:57,040 --> 01:41:00,260
just by the fact that it's Besant, who's

2820
01:41:00,260 --> 01:41:03,180
a kind of a milquetoast guy that's got

2821
01:41:03,180 --> 01:41:04,140
all these zingers.

2822
01:41:04,320 --> 01:41:05,120
Are you kidding me?

2823
01:41:06,100 --> 01:41:07,400
In that interview, I didn't clip it.

2824
01:41:07,480 --> 01:41:09,080
He says, hey, I'm just a kid from

2825
01:41:09,080 --> 01:41:10,060
South Carolina.

2826
01:41:10,620 --> 01:41:12,620
He says, I learned to fend for myself.

2827
01:41:13,440 --> 01:41:14,720
I kind of believe that.

2828
01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:16,940
He just grew up to be kind of,

2829
01:41:16,960 --> 01:41:21,920
this whole persona says royal family, not like

2830
01:41:21,920 --> 01:41:23,960
I'm going to insult you with a knee

2831
01:41:23,960 --> 01:41:25,160
pad retort.

2832
01:41:25,660 --> 01:41:27,840
It's just, it's something funny about it.

2833
01:41:28,660 --> 01:41:31,180
Yeah, South Carolinians are, you know, when the

2834
01:41:31,180 --> 01:41:34,960
Civil War broke out, South Carolina was one

2835
01:41:34,960 --> 01:41:37,960
of the succession of states that really was

2836
01:41:37,960 --> 01:41:39,380
pushing for a monarchy.

2837
01:41:40,100 --> 01:41:40,960
Oh, really?

2838
01:41:41,380 --> 01:41:43,500
Yeah, they've always been somewhat regal.

2839
01:41:44,100 --> 01:41:45,600
The South Carolinians are regal.

2840
01:41:46,300 --> 01:41:50,560
They have a regality that is unparalleled in

2841
01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:51,440
the entire country.

2842
01:41:53,460 --> 01:41:55,120
Yeah, having been there a couple of times,

2843
01:41:55,140 --> 01:41:55,900
I can see that.

2844
01:41:56,380 --> 01:41:58,240
They like their little palaces there.

2845
01:41:58,420 --> 01:41:59,820
They got those houses, man.

2846
01:41:59,880 --> 01:42:01,120
Some of them were just amazing.

2847
01:42:02,400 --> 01:42:03,640
We have another one from Scott Besant, although

2848
01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:04,600
not as lewd.

2849
01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:07,580
This is about Alberta.

2850
01:42:07,920 --> 01:42:10,640
Look, Alberta is a wealth of natural resources,

2851
01:42:10,980 --> 01:42:13,420
but they won't let them build a pipeline

2852
01:42:13,420 --> 01:42:15,440
to the Pacific.

2853
01:42:16,060 --> 01:42:18,740
I think we should let them come down

2854
01:42:18,740 --> 01:42:21,760
into the U.S. And Alberta is a

2855
01:42:21,760 --> 01:42:25,680
natural partner for the U.S. They have

2856
01:42:25,680 --> 01:42:26,560
great resources.

2857
01:42:26,820 --> 01:42:29,620
The Albertans are very independent people.

2858
01:42:30,840 --> 01:42:33,340
Rumors that they may have a referendum on

2859
01:42:33,340 --> 01:42:34,820
whether they want to stay in Canada or

2860
01:42:34,820 --> 01:42:35,300
not.

2861
01:42:35,720 --> 01:42:37,260
Yeah, well, it's not just a rumor.

2862
01:42:37,340 --> 01:42:37,920
They say rumors?

2863
01:42:38,100 --> 01:42:38,860
Yeah, he said rumor.

2864
01:42:39,300 --> 01:42:40,260
That's not a rumor.

2865
01:42:41,940 --> 01:42:43,860
No, it's not a rumor at all.

2866
01:42:46,640 --> 01:42:48,780
But it may not have been Davos.

2867
01:42:48,900 --> 01:42:49,800
That may have been earlier.

2868
01:42:49,960 --> 01:42:53,120
But still, the sign-up for the referendum

2869
01:42:53,120 --> 01:42:54,440
has been going on for a couple of

2870
01:42:54,440 --> 01:42:54,900
weeks now.

2871
01:42:55,780 --> 01:42:59,800
I just do have another, because Davos is

2872
01:42:59,800 --> 01:43:02,240
kind of wrapped up and just looking at

2873
01:43:02,240 --> 01:43:04,600
some, just trolling for some material here.

2874
01:43:05,280 --> 01:43:06,200
Bill Gates.

2875
01:43:07,120 --> 01:43:09,980
This is so on brand for what he

2876
01:43:09,980 --> 01:43:10,680
says here.

2877
01:43:11,260 --> 01:43:13,700
It was just mind-blowing that he still

2878
01:43:13,700 --> 01:43:14,800
gets away with this.

2879
01:43:15,120 --> 01:43:17,860
So the AI is entering into the health

2880
01:43:17,860 --> 01:43:20,380
system, but not just into the health system.

2881
01:43:20,380 --> 01:43:21,860
It's all the way down to the level

2882
01:43:21,860 --> 01:43:22,580
of the patient.

2883
01:43:22,760 --> 01:43:25,040
So the patient is able to talk in

2884
01:43:25,040 --> 01:43:27,440
their local language and describe what's going on.

2885
01:43:28,100 --> 01:43:30,960
And so in order to make this a

2886
01:43:30,960 --> 01:43:33,400
reality, to see what works, what doesn't work,

2887
01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:36,920
we're thrilled that OpenAI and the Gates Foundation

2888
01:43:36,920 --> 01:43:43,260
are committing an initiative called Horizon 1000, where

2889
01:43:43,260 --> 01:43:45,320
we'll go into a thousand primary health care

2890
01:43:45,320 --> 01:43:46,400
clinics in Africa.

2891
01:43:47,440 --> 01:43:48,680
And the goal is to make...

2892
01:43:48,680 --> 01:43:51,400
He's like, whatever we can do, let's test

2893
01:43:51,400 --> 01:43:53,040
it on the black people over there.

2894
01:43:53,060 --> 01:43:54,060
In Africa.

2895
01:43:54,060 --> 01:43:58,940
Much higher quality and if possible, twice as

2896
01:43:58,940 --> 01:44:01,000
efficient as it is today.

2897
01:44:01,220 --> 01:44:03,420
Taking away the paperwork that needs to be

2898
01:44:03,420 --> 01:44:07,960
done, organizing the resources, so the patient knows

2899
01:44:07,960 --> 01:44:11,360
what's available and when to come for their

2900
01:44:11,360 --> 01:44:11,800
appointment.

2901
01:44:11,980 --> 01:44:14,160
So there's all sorts of things can be

2902
01:44:14,160 --> 01:44:14,700
improved.

2903
01:44:14,960 --> 01:44:16,720
So it's basically a chat bot.

2904
01:44:17,540 --> 01:44:21,000
You know, Rwanda is a great partner for

2905
01:44:21,000 --> 01:44:21,840
the Gates Foundation.

2906
01:44:21,840 --> 01:44:22,840
Yeah, oh yeah.

2907
01:44:22,960 --> 01:44:25,660
We got lots of cadavers from Rwanda to

2908
01:44:25,660 --> 01:44:25,900
test.

2909
01:44:26,000 --> 01:44:26,840
And a lot of things.

2910
01:44:27,080 --> 01:44:29,480
And so we're thrilled that that's actually the

2911
01:44:29,480 --> 01:44:32,120
first country that this work will go into.

2912
01:44:33,000 --> 01:44:35,860
We'll certainly also, over time, work in Kenya,

2913
01:44:36,160 --> 01:44:37,540
South Africa, Nigeria.

2914
01:44:38,520 --> 01:44:42,400
And you have different systems that we have

2915
01:44:42,400 --> 01:44:43,400
to connect into.

2916
01:44:44,480 --> 01:44:47,400
Although not this initiative, there's obviously a lot

2917
01:44:47,400 --> 01:44:48,940
going on in India as well.

2918
01:44:49,120 --> 01:44:51,520
And so over the next couple of years,

2919
01:44:51,840 --> 01:44:56,040
I would expect developing world health may even

2920
01:44:56,040 --> 01:44:59,060
get ahead of rich world because the need

2921
01:44:59,060 --> 01:44:59,820
is so great.

2922
01:44:59,920 --> 01:45:01,720
And the governments are embracing this and making

2923
01:45:01,720 --> 01:45:04,880
sure that it's moving at full speed.

2924
01:45:05,080 --> 01:45:07,780
So basically, you go in, the chat bot

2925
01:45:07,780 --> 01:45:09,000
says, oh, you need a shot.

2926
01:45:09,820 --> 01:45:12,280
Clearly, just stick your arm in here.

2927
01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:13,460
We'll give you a shot.

2928
01:45:13,540 --> 01:45:14,660
This guy is a ghoul.

2929
01:45:15,660 --> 01:45:17,460
He's a total ghoul.

2930
01:45:18,480 --> 01:45:21,640
And while we're leaving the World Health Organization,

2931
01:45:21,840 --> 01:45:24,260
your state is reentering.

2932
01:45:24,540 --> 01:45:27,100
California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced the state

2933
01:45:27,100 --> 01:45:31,100
is joining the World Health Organization's Global Outbreak

2934
01:45:31,100 --> 01:45:32,960
Alert and Response Network.

2935
01:45:33,260 --> 01:45:33,920
There's more.

2936
01:45:34,240 --> 01:45:36,220
The announcement comes a day after the U

2937
01:45:36,220 --> 01:45:39,520
.S. formally withdrew from the WHO and is

2938
01:45:39,520 --> 01:45:42,640
the latest move by Newsom to move California

2939
01:45:42,640 --> 01:45:44,920
away from federal health policy.

2940
01:45:45,120 --> 01:45:46,600
But wait, this is your state.

2941
01:45:46,760 --> 01:45:47,900
This is what your money is going to

2942
01:45:47,900 --> 01:45:48,600
be spent on.

2943
01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:51,300
And meanwhile, according to an expenditure line item

2944
01:45:51,840 --> 01:45:54,480
in the governor's proposed 2026-27 state budget,

2945
01:45:54,700 --> 01:45:58,020
the governor is requesting $33,000 for a

2946
01:45:58,020 --> 01:45:58,660
self-portrait.

2947
01:45:59,060 --> 01:46:01,100
No details on who's going to be painting

2948
01:46:01,100 --> 01:46:02,760
that portrait or where it's going to be

2949
01:46:02,760 --> 01:46:03,180
displayed.

2950
01:46:03,500 --> 01:46:06,380
The full budget is pegged at about $348

2951
01:46:06,380 --> 01:46:06,880
billion.

2952
01:46:07,560 --> 01:46:08,540
Okay, so two things.

2953
01:46:08,640 --> 01:46:10,340
One, $348 billion.

2954
01:46:11,140 --> 01:46:12,240
And self-portrait?

2955
01:46:12,440 --> 01:46:13,540
Is he going to pay himself?

2956
01:46:14,580 --> 01:46:15,620
That's what I said.

2957
01:46:16,080 --> 01:46:17,260
That makes no sense.

2958
01:46:17,900 --> 01:46:19,200
That'd be a stick figure.

2959
01:46:19,420 --> 01:46:22,260
But it'd be, you know, he needs $33

2960
01:46:22,260 --> 01:46:23,040
,000.

2961
01:46:24,320 --> 01:46:26,200
So he's going to paint himself.

2962
01:46:26,880 --> 01:46:29,440
So obviously that was not misreported.

2963
01:46:29,580 --> 01:46:30,000
Yeah.

2964
01:46:30,400 --> 01:46:31,500
But as usual.

2965
01:46:32,140 --> 01:46:32,680
Hilarious.

2966
01:46:32,920 --> 01:46:33,560
Just hilarious.

2967
01:46:34,360 --> 01:46:34,960
It is funny.

2968
01:46:35,360 --> 01:46:35,600
Yeah.

2969
01:46:37,640 --> 01:46:38,480
Let's see.

2970
01:46:38,860 --> 01:46:39,260
What else?

2971
01:46:40,010 --> 01:46:42,260
Do you want to hear Elon from Davos?

2972
01:46:43,860 --> 01:46:44,480
He was there?

2973
01:46:44,940 --> 01:46:45,440
Oh, yeah.

2974
01:46:45,440 --> 01:46:46,640
Oh, yeah, that's right.

2975
01:46:46,680 --> 01:46:47,200
I saw him.

2976
01:46:47,360 --> 01:46:48,140
Yeah, with Fink.

2977
01:46:49,080 --> 01:46:49,480
Fink.

2978
01:46:49,740 --> 01:46:51,600
Who was quick to point out everywhere, I'm

2979
01:46:51,600 --> 01:46:52,660
interim, co-chair.

2980
01:46:52,780 --> 01:46:53,360
Just interim.

2981
01:46:53,540 --> 01:46:54,320
I'm only interim.

2982
01:46:54,660 --> 01:46:56,620
I'm not part of the World Economic Forum.

2983
01:46:56,720 --> 01:46:57,380
I'm just interim.

2984
01:46:57,780 --> 01:46:59,140
He had to keep saying it everywhere.

2985
01:47:00,540 --> 01:47:01,500
Sticking his finger up.

2986
01:47:01,680 --> 01:47:02,080
Interim.

2987
01:47:02,760 --> 01:47:03,160
Interim.

2988
01:47:03,520 --> 01:47:04,320
So he's got...

2989
01:47:04,320 --> 01:47:06,500
So he's the guy running it right now.

2990
01:47:06,500 --> 01:47:07,220
He's running it, yeah.

2991
01:47:07,980 --> 01:47:10,060
He got the other guy kicked out so

2992
01:47:10,060 --> 01:47:11,560
he could take it over so they could

2993
01:47:11,560 --> 01:47:12,600
do some deals.

2994
01:47:12,700 --> 01:47:13,420
It's all about the deals.

2995
01:47:13,480 --> 01:47:14,900
BlackRock deals worldwide.

2996
01:47:14,900 --> 01:47:16,920
Yeah, it's all about the deals, of course.

2997
01:47:17,100 --> 01:47:19,060
And so he's going to...

2998
01:47:19,060 --> 01:47:20,480
Yeah, he's in tight with Trump.

2999
01:47:20,560 --> 01:47:21,660
Him and Trump are buddies.

3000
01:47:21,820 --> 01:47:23,960
In fact, one of the overlooked details about

3001
01:47:23,960 --> 01:47:24,620
his...

3002
01:47:24,620 --> 01:47:27,620
Their friend, even though he's a Democrat, Fink.

3003
01:47:29,280 --> 01:47:30,200
Jewish, by the way.

3004
01:47:30,300 --> 01:47:31,280
Make sure to note that.

3005
01:47:31,420 --> 01:47:31,640
Yes.

3006
01:47:31,860 --> 01:47:33,040
Troll room, take note.

3007
01:47:33,640 --> 01:47:34,520
Take note, troll room.

3008
01:47:34,860 --> 01:47:39,060
So Fink is the guy who actually bought

3009
01:47:39,060 --> 01:47:43,280
C.K. Hutchinson's ports all over the world

3010
01:47:43,280 --> 01:47:45,600
through BlackRock.

3011
01:47:46,440 --> 01:47:48,900
And that includes Rotterdam, by the way.

3012
01:47:48,980 --> 01:47:50,700
He owns half of Rotterdam's ports now.

3013
01:47:50,700 --> 01:47:50,800
Really?

3014
01:47:51,340 --> 01:47:53,240
Well, he's in the drug trade then.

3015
01:47:53,860 --> 01:47:57,440
And he is the one that made the

3016
01:47:57,440 --> 01:47:58,740
Panama deal go through.

3017
01:47:58,880 --> 01:48:00,860
He's the one who bought the ports from

3018
01:48:00,860 --> 01:48:04,760
the Chinese with BlackRock, which made it easy

3019
01:48:04,760 --> 01:48:06,320
so Trump didn't have to make a big

3020
01:48:06,320 --> 01:48:07,720
fuss or go to war or anything.

3021
01:48:07,840 --> 01:48:10,840
So Trump and him are in bed as

3022
01:48:10,840 --> 01:48:11,300
pals.

3023
01:48:11,300 --> 01:48:14,200
And as a favorite of Trump, he's the

3024
01:48:14,200 --> 01:48:16,600
one who told Newsom he had to cancel

3025
01:48:16,600 --> 01:48:19,420
his speech at Davos and he could be

3026
01:48:19,420 --> 01:48:21,400
interviewed or something else.

3027
01:48:21,500 --> 01:48:23,500
But he got booted out, got pissed off

3028
01:48:23,500 --> 01:48:23,860
about it.

3029
01:48:23,860 --> 01:48:26,180
That's why he was so irked about the

3030
01:48:26,180 --> 01:48:28,640
knee pads and everything else because he thought

3031
01:48:28,640 --> 01:48:32,660
that he's being railroaded, which he was, because

3032
01:48:32,660 --> 01:48:34,040
he shouldn't be there in the first place.

3033
01:48:34,100 --> 01:48:35,260
He's the governor of California.

3034
01:48:35,340 --> 01:48:36,500
What's he doing at Davos?

3035
01:48:36,760 --> 01:48:38,620
Third largest economy in the world.

3036
01:48:39,360 --> 01:48:39,800
Fourth.

3037
01:48:39,800 --> 01:48:42,760
And so there is a falling fast.

3038
01:48:42,920 --> 01:48:43,820
He said third though.

3039
01:48:43,940 --> 01:48:44,840
Well, he's wrong.

3040
01:48:45,520 --> 01:48:49,680
And so you end up with this craziness

3041
01:48:49,680 --> 01:48:53,340
going on between Fink and Trump which is

3042
01:48:53,340 --> 01:48:55,460
not really being noticed enough.

3043
01:48:55,600 --> 01:48:56,020
That's good.

3044
01:48:56,080 --> 01:48:57,780
I didn't know that he had basically done

3045
01:48:57,780 --> 01:49:01,320
the Panama deal.

3046
01:49:02,020 --> 01:49:02,260
Yeah.

3047
01:49:02,600 --> 01:49:04,040
Oh, that's very interesting.

3048
01:49:05,220 --> 01:49:06,900
Of course, it's our money.

3049
01:49:07,480 --> 01:49:09,280
Isn't it the U.S. government money?

3050
01:49:10,060 --> 01:49:10,340
Whatever.

3051
01:49:11,140 --> 01:49:13,000
You can assure it's not Fink's money.

3052
01:49:13,220 --> 01:49:14,020
No, it's not his.

3053
01:49:14,660 --> 01:49:17,280
So Elon is at Davos.

3054
01:49:17,520 --> 01:49:20,460
And I have to say Elon is underwhelming.

3055
01:49:20,660 --> 01:49:22,720
He doesn't have a good rap anymore.

3056
01:49:22,920 --> 01:49:26,020
The stuff he says is like, okay, whatever.

3057
01:49:26,520 --> 01:49:29,080
And he and all these AI guys, whether

3058
01:49:29,080 --> 01:49:33,720
it's him or whether it's Altman, it's a

3059
01:49:33,720 --> 01:49:36,880
milieu, it's a clique, it's creepy.

3060
01:49:37,720 --> 01:49:39,180
And you're right.

3061
01:49:39,520 --> 01:49:41,980
It's anti-climatic.

3062
01:49:42,180 --> 01:49:43,120
It lacks charisma.

3063
01:49:43,660 --> 01:49:44,600
Lacks charisma.

3064
01:49:45,240 --> 01:49:46,940
They all are looking up to the left,

3065
01:49:47,180 --> 01:49:47,440
you know.

3066
01:49:48,660 --> 01:49:51,400
What is that in NLP if your eyes

3067
01:49:51,400 --> 01:49:52,540
look up to the left?

3068
01:49:52,740 --> 01:49:54,620
You're trying to visualize something.

3069
01:49:55,180 --> 01:49:56,180
You're dreaming.

3070
01:49:57,260 --> 01:49:58,340
You're dreaming.

3071
01:49:58,600 --> 01:49:59,940
You're in a dream world.

3072
01:50:00,020 --> 01:50:01,120
You're in a dream world.

3073
01:50:01,820 --> 01:50:07,900
Talk like difficult because, you know, I'm a

3074
01:50:07,900 --> 01:50:08,440
genius.

3075
01:50:13,920 --> 01:50:15,660
What a start.

3076
01:50:16,380 --> 01:50:17,080
I mean, the way you think of it

3077
01:50:17,080 --> 01:50:18,420
is that if you have a large number

3078
01:50:18,420 --> 01:50:24,460
of humanoid robots, the economic output is the

3079
01:50:24,460 --> 01:50:30,520
average productivity per robot times the number of

3080
01:50:30,520 --> 01:50:30,960
robots.

3081
01:50:31,560 --> 01:50:31,660
Wow.

3082
01:50:32,660 --> 01:50:33,360
Wow.

3083
01:50:33,640 --> 01:50:36,520
Let's listen to that calculation again.

3084
01:50:37,900 --> 01:50:39,760
Wait, I got to listen to that.

3085
01:50:39,820 --> 01:50:40,580
That was so dumb.

3086
01:50:40,880 --> 01:50:42,340
Large number of humanoid robots.

3087
01:50:43,680 --> 01:50:45,500
The economic output is.

3088
01:50:45,680 --> 01:50:48,160
The economic output of a large number of

3089
01:50:48,160 --> 01:50:50,390
humanoid robots is.

3090
01:50:51,940 --> 01:50:55,860
The average productivity per robot times the number

3091
01:50:55,860 --> 01:50:56,400
of robots.

3092
01:50:56,640 --> 01:50:57,120
No.

3093
01:50:57,840 --> 01:50:58,540
No.

3094
01:50:58,980 --> 01:50:59,320
No.

3095
01:50:59,320 --> 01:50:59,700
No.

3096
01:50:59,900 --> 01:51:00,080
No.

3097
01:51:00,200 --> 01:51:00,300
No.

3098
01:51:00,300 --> 01:51:01,300
Say it's not so.

3099
01:51:01,480 --> 01:51:03,180
I never would have come up with that

3100
01:51:03,180 --> 01:51:03,640
calculation.

3101
01:51:05,100 --> 01:51:05,580
Right.

3102
01:51:05,760 --> 01:51:09,320
And actually my prediction is in the benign

3103
01:51:09,320 --> 01:51:09,880
scenario.

3104
01:51:10,120 --> 01:51:11,080
Benign scenario.

3105
01:51:11,440 --> 01:51:11,920
That we will.

3106
01:51:12,480 --> 01:51:12,980
The robots.

3107
01:51:13,160 --> 01:51:14,780
We will actually make so many robots in

3108
01:51:14,780 --> 01:51:17,180
AI that they will actually saturate all human

3109
01:51:17,180 --> 01:51:18,080
needs.

3110
01:51:18,640 --> 01:51:20,420
Meaning you won't be able to even think

3111
01:51:20,420 --> 01:51:23,600
of something to ask the robot for.

3112
01:51:23,880 --> 01:51:24,120
Yes.

3113
01:51:24,180 --> 01:51:24,420
Yes.

3114
01:51:24,480 --> 01:51:25,080
I have something.

3115
01:51:25,180 --> 01:51:27,400
Could you please do this podcast for us?

3116
01:51:27,400 --> 01:51:29,100
That would be very helpful.

3117
01:51:29,240 --> 01:51:30,140
Humanoid robot.

3118
01:51:30,400 --> 01:51:30,880
At a certain point.

3119
01:51:31,460 --> 01:51:34,400
Like there will be such an abundance of

3120
01:51:34,400 --> 01:51:35,160
goods and services.

3121
01:51:37,140 --> 01:51:40,680
Because my prediction is there'll be more robots

3122
01:51:40,680 --> 01:51:41,180
than people.

3123
01:51:42,020 --> 01:51:44,300
But how do you then have human purpose

3124
01:51:44,300 --> 01:51:45,900
in that scenario?

3125
01:51:46,080 --> 01:51:46,220
Yeah.

3126
01:51:46,360 --> 01:51:49,700
I mean, you know, there was nothing's perfect,

3127
01:51:49,840 --> 01:51:50,000
you know.

3128
01:51:50,160 --> 01:51:51,100
Kill all humans.

3129
01:51:52,860 --> 01:51:54,920
Human purpose to kill all robots.

3130
01:51:56,300 --> 01:51:59,980
But I mean, it is a necessary.

3131
01:52:01,020 --> 01:52:01,840
Listen to this.

3132
01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:03,360
Like you can't have both.

3133
01:52:03,440 --> 01:52:05,240
You can't have work that has to be

3134
01:52:05,240 --> 01:52:09,640
done and amazing abundance for all.

3135
01:52:10,560 --> 01:52:10,900
What?

3136
01:52:11,440 --> 01:52:13,140
Because if it's work that has to be

3137
01:52:13,140 --> 01:52:16,160
done and only some people can do it,

3138
01:52:16,620 --> 01:52:18,520
then you can't have abundance.

3139
01:52:18,580 --> 01:52:19,140
It's narrow.

3140
01:52:19,400 --> 01:52:19,820
It's narrow.

3141
01:52:20,020 --> 01:52:20,220
Exactly.

3142
01:52:20,960 --> 01:52:21,100
Yeah.

3143
01:52:21,140 --> 01:52:21,820
We'll wait for it.

3144
01:52:22,620 --> 01:52:24,040
It's coming at the end.

3145
01:52:24,040 --> 01:52:25,620
And can I say something?

3146
01:52:25,640 --> 01:52:26,220
Yeah, of course.

3147
01:52:26,520 --> 01:52:29,420
He always underperforms in front of art.

3148
01:52:29,580 --> 01:52:30,240
He's not one.

3149
01:52:30,340 --> 01:52:31,460
He's like most people.

3150
01:52:31,580 --> 01:52:33,380
Supposedly, they can't perform in front of an

3151
01:52:33,380 --> 01:52:33,800
audience.

3152
01:52:33,920 --> 01:52:36,320
He's not a theater kid.

3153
01:52:36,660 --> 01:52:38,900
He's good on one on one interviews when

3154
01:52:38,900 --> 01:52:39,620
he's with somebody.

3155
01:52:39,700 --> 01:52:42,600
And he can focus on them and skewer

3156
01:52:42,600 --> 01:52:42,900
him.

3157
01:52:42,980 --> 01:52:45,540
But when he's playing to a large audience,

3158
01:52:45,540 --> 01:52:46,760
he's always like this.

3159
01:52:46,760 --> 01:52:47,700
He's not good.

3160
01:52:48,000 --> 01:52:49,320
He should even do it.

3161
01:52:49,380 --> 01:52:51,800
Well, this is a one on one panel

3162
01:52:51,800 --> 01:52:52,700
between him and.

3163
01:52:52,700 --> 01:52:55,060
Yeah, but there's a bunch of people watching

3164
01:52:55,060 --> 01:52:55,320
it.

3165
01:52:55,440 --> 01:52:55,660
Yeah.

3166
01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:57,900
Well, listen to his vision.

3167
01:52:58,200 --> 01:52:59,380
You can't have abundance.

3168
01:52:59,460 --> 01:53:00,080
It's narrow.

3169
01:53:00,260 --> 01:53:00,700
It's narrow.

3170
01:53:00,920 --> 01:53:01,260
Exactly.

3171
01:53:01,960 --> 01:53:02,180
So.

3172
01:53:04,060 --> 01:53:07,020
But if you have billions of humanoid robots,

3173
01:53:07,080 --> 01:53:07,800
I think there will be.

3174
01:53:09,500 --> 01:53:11,280
I think I think everyone on Earth is

3175
01:53:11,280 --> 01:53:11,980
going to have one.

3176
01:53:12,180 --> 01:53:16,660
I'm going to want one because you wouldn't

3177
01:53:16,660 --> 01:53:17,840
want a robot to.

3178
01:53:18,760 --> 01:53:19,060
All right.

3179
01:53:19,060 --> 01:53:21,780
What do you think his examples are of

3180
01:53:21,780 --> 01:53:23,820
what the robot what our robots of the

3181
01:53:23,820 --> 01:53:24,720
future will do?

3182
01:53:25,840 --> 01:53:28,220
Well, what they should do, they do the

3183
01:53:28,220 --> 01:53:31,520
dishes and vacuum the floor and they run

3184
01:53:31,520 --> 01:53:35,660
errands and they scratch your back.

3185
01:53:35,880 --> 01:53:38,080
You know, it's very safe.

3186
01:53:38,740 --> 01:53:39,880
Watch over your kids.

3187
01:53:39,960 --> 01:53:41,000
Take care of your pets.

3188
01:53:42,060 --> 01:53:44,560
Two of the joys in life.

3189
01:53:45,040 --> 01:53:45,320
Yeah.

3190
01:53:45,320 --> 01:53:48,620
Is why you want the robots are supposed

3191
01:53:48,620 --> 01:53:50,580
to free you up so you can do

3192
01:53:50,580 --> 01:53:51,480
that activity.

3193
01:53:51,680 --> 01:53:53,420
I want to play with my pet.

3194
01:53:53,580 --> 01:53:55,340
I want to play with the dog and

3195
01:53:55,340 --> 01:53:57,440
you want to, you know, tumble around with

3196
01:53:57,440 --> 01:53:57,940
the kids.

3197
01:53:57,940 --> 01:53:58,360
Sure.

3198
01:53:58,520 --> 01:53:59,820
Here comes the worst one.

3199
01:54:00,060 --> 01:54:01,560
If you have elderly parents.

3200
01:54:02,300 --> 01:54:03,780
A lot of friends of mine said they

3201
01:54:03,780 --> 01:54:04,660
have elderly parents.

3202
01:54:04,800 --> 01:54:06,940
It's very difficult to take care of them.

3203
01:54:07,100 --> 01:54:07,380
Expenses.

3204
01:54:07,800 --> 01:54:07,920
Yeah.

3205
01:54:08,020 --> 01:54:09,500
Oh, you know what?

3206
01:54:09,680 --> 01:54:10,500
Kill the elder.

3207
01:54:10,640 --> 01:54:12,780
Have the robot kill your parents.

3208
01:54:13,600 --> 01:54:14,220
There you go.

3209
01:54:14,220 --> 01:54:15,900
Now you're being realistic.

3210
01:54:16,180 --> 01:54:18,020
It's expensive and it's expensive and they just

3211
01:54:18,020 --> 01:54:20,300
aren't enough people to take care of the

3212
01:54:20,300 --> 01:54:22,160
enough young people to take care of the

3213
01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:22,620
old people.

3214
01:54:22,780 --> 01:54:23,340
Wait a minute.

3215
01:54:23,420 --> 01:54:25,280
If we have robots, then yes, we can

3216
01:54:25,280 --> 01:54:26,980
have the young people taking care of the

3217
01:54:26,980 --> 01:54:27,520
old people.

3218
01:54:27,700 --> 01:54:29,880
It's by the way, it's enjoyable for the

3219
01:54:29,880 --> 01:54:30,540
old people.

3220
01:54:30,720 --> 01:54:32,840
And for young people, they might learn something

3221
01:54:32,840 --> 01:54:36,640
like don't let the robots take over.

3222
01:54:38,680 --> 01:54:39,400
This is.

3223
01:54:39,720 --> 01:54:39,860
Yeah.

3224
01:54:39,980 --> 01:54:41,060
We teach him something.

3225
01:54:41,340 --> 01:54:41,440
Right.

3226
01:54:41,600 --> 01:54:41,700
Yeah.

3227
01:54:41,700 --> 01:54:45,640
You know, when I was a kid, they

3228
01:54:45,640 --> 01:54:46,860
didn't have robots.

3229
01:54:47,660 --> 01:54:49,540
I almost expected him to say, you know,

3230
01:54:49,580 --> 01:54:51,280
the robot will know when you're out of

3231
01:54:51,280 --> 01:54:53,140
milk in the fridge and it'll order new

3232
01:54:53,140 --> 01:54:53,820
milk for you.

3233
01:54:53,920 --> 01:54:54,520
That's coming.

3234
01:54:54,820 --> 01:54:57,120
Well, that would be what I would expect.

3235
01:54:59,180 --> 01:55:01,280
And with that, before our children kill us,

3236
01:55:01,320 --> 01:55:02,480
I want to thank you for your courage.

3237
01:55:02,600 --> 01:55:03,700
Say in the morning to you, the man

3238
01:55:03,700 --> 01:55:06,480
who put the C in 53 Mexican consulates,

3239
01:55:06,600 --> 01:55:07,920
say hello to my friend on the other

3240
01:55:07,920 --> 01:55:08,120
end.

3241
01:55:08,200 --> 01:55:10,440
The one, the only Mr. John.

3242
01:55:11,720 --> 01:55:12,600
Good morning.

3243
01:55:15,380 --> 01:55:16,260
Good morning.

3244
01:55:16,420 --> 01:55:17,240
It was a great day.

3245
01:55:17,520 --> 01:55:17,880
March of C.

3246
01:55:18,380 --> 01:55:19,160
Boots on the ground.

3247
01:55:19,540 --> 01:55:20,240
Subs in the water.

3248
01:55:22,620 --> 01:55:25,140
And nobody's a nicer in the morning to

3249
01:55:25,140 --> 01:55:26,160
the trolls in the troll room.

3250
01:55:26,220 --> 01:55:26,920
Let me count your first.

3251
01:55:32,880 --> 01:55:33,760
2076 today.

3252
01:55:33,960 --> 01:55:35,220
It is a snow day.

3253
01:55:35,320 --> 01:55:38,920
That's why everybody's inside and couldn't go to

3254
01:55:38,920 --> 01:55:41,120
the mailbox to send us a check because

3255
01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:42,860
this will be one of the shorter segments

3256
01:55:42,860 --> 01:55:45,600
we do in the lifetime of this show.

3257
01:55:46,020 --> 01:55:48,140
The whole idea is value for value.

3258
01:55:48,440 --> 01:55:49,940
Then we give you value.

3259
01:55:50,140 --> 01:55:51,980
If you don't find it valuable, not giving

3260
01:55:51,980 --> 01:55:53,000
them enough value.

3261
01:55:53,040 --> 01:55:55,020
I guess, I guess our value is low.

3262
01:55:55,700 --> 01:55:58,180
Well, it's, you know, we were beating up

3263
01:55:58,180 --> 01:55:59,520
a lot of dead dogs here.

3264
01:56:00,160 --> 01:56:01,000
No, we're not.

3265
01:56:01,120 --> 01:56:02,200
We've had dead horses.

3266
01:56:02,440 --> 01:56:02,740
I'm sorry.

3267
01:56:02,920 --> 01:56:05,880
People a whole new perspective on what's happening

3268
01:56:05,880 --> 01:56:06,460
in Minneapolis.

3269
01:56:07,460 --> 01:56:08,340
I think.

3270
01:56:08,720 --> 01:56:09,800
No, I don't think we're.

3271
01:56:09,800 --> 01:56:11,180
We're beating up dead dogs.

3272
01:56:11,340 --> 01:56:13,740
We're doing horses or horses.

3273
01:56:13,960 --> 01:56:14,660
We're doing.

3274
01:56:15,060 --> 01:56:17,540
We're not doing what all the other programs

3275
01:56:17,540 --> 01:56:18,520
do, which is.

3276
01:56:18,680 --> 01:56:19,860
Oh, that's the problem.

3277
01:56:20,060 --> 01:56:20,660
You're right.

3278
01:56:20,780 --> 01:56:23,300
We're not being in the podcast industrial complex

3279
01:56:23,300 --> 01:56:23,880
in the end.

3280
01:56:23,960 --> 01:56:25,220
They end the circle jerk.

3281
01:56:25,340 --> 01:56:25,980
Yeah, we're not.

3282
01:56:32,160 --> 01:56:33,100
He killed him.

3283
01:56:33,120 --> 01:56:33,660
No, he didn't.

3284
01:56:33,740 --> 01:56:34,560
He didn't have a gun.

3285
01:56:34,820 --> 01:56:35,620
Rewind the video.

3286
01:56:35,720 --> 01:56:36,280
Let's take a look.

3287
01:56:36,320 --> 01:56:36,940
What do you see?

3288
01:56:37,000 --> 01:56:37,720
What do you think?

3289
01:56:38,400 --> 01:56:40,740
No, we're not doing Zapruder analysis.

3290
01:56:41,020 --> 01:56:43,760
We're analyzing your world from a different point

3291
01:56:43,760 --> 01:56:44,100
of view.

3292
01:56:44,540 --> 01:56:46,000
So we hope you find that valuable.

3293
01:56:46,640 --> 01:56:48,420
And you should be listening to us on

3294
01:56:48,420 --> 01:56:50,960
one of those very valuable modern podcast apps.

3295
01:56:51,220 --> 01:56:54,320
So that you can get the bat signal

3296
01:56:54,320 --> 01:56:56,080
when we go live because we do the

3297
01:56:56,080 --> 01:56:56,680
show live.

3298
01:56:57,260 --> 01:56:59,780
And of course, once we publish it within

3299
01:56:59,780 --> 01:57:01,520
90 seconds, you will know.

3300
01:57:01,800 --> 01:57:01,900
What?

3301
01:57:02,800 --> 01:57:03,660
We're doing it live.

3302
01:57:03,660 --> 01:57:04,660
When do we go live?

3303
01:57:05,100 --> 01:57:06,140
No one told you?

3304
01:57:07,720 --> 01:57:10,820
Value for value is measured in multiple ways.

3305
01:57:10,960 --> 01:57:12,420
Time, talent, or treasure.

3306
01:57:15,040 --> 01:57:16,600
Meetups are appreciated.

3307
01:57:17,120 --> 01:57:18,440
Doing boots on the ground.

3308
01:57:18,580 --> 01:57:19,660
Like we had a good boots on the

3309
01:57:19,660 --> 01:57:20,200
ground report.

3310
01:57:20,380 --> 01:57:24,700
Anonymous Department of War employee from the Navy

3311
01:57:24,700 --> 01:57:25,180
apparently.

3312
01:57:26,940 --> 01:57:28,600
Yeah, this is all helpful.

3313
01:57:28,820 --> 01:57:30,920
This is what makes the show, of course,

3314
01:57:31,040 --> 01:57:33,480
is that we have thousands of producers.

3315
01:57:33,480 --> 01:57:35,460
Not like Don Lemon, who just has some

3316
01:57:35,460 --> 01:57:36,280
FBI handlers.

3317
01:57:36,280 --> 01:57:38,920
We have actual producers who know stuff because

3318
01:57:38,920 --> 01:57:40,080
they are in the workplace.

3319
01:57:40,360 --> 01:57:42,200
They are out in the real world.

3320
01:57:42,260 --> 01:57:43,780
And we feel that we are close to

3321
01:57:43,780 --> 01:57:43,900
you.

3322
01:57:44,000 --> 01:57:44,620
We are connected.

3323
01:57:46,060 --> 01:57:47,760
We also have people who are pretty good

3324
01:57:47,760 --> 01:57:49,700
at AI stuff.

3325
01:57:50,300 --> 01:57:52,160
And they like to prompt a lot.

3326
01:57:53,040 --> 01:57:54,500
And we want to thank Blue Acorn.

3327
01:57:54,680 --> 01:57:57,860
Blue Acorn, who I think is a real

3328
01:57:57,860 --> 01:57:58,760
digital artist.

3329
01:57:59,520 --> 01:58:01,580
Obviously, he knew what he was doing when

3330
01:58:01,580 --> 01:58:04,280
he created this art for episode 1836.

3331
01:58:04,280 --> 01:58:05,900
We titled that Big Bully.

3332
01:58:06,880 --> 01:58:09,880
His exploding tree art was spot on.

3333
01:58:10,620 --> 01:58:12,060
And everybody got it.

3334
01:58:12,520 --> 01:58:14,060
It was meta to the max.

3335
01:58:16,220 --> 01:58:18,060
It was the perfect time for this type

3336
01:58:18,060 --> 01:58:18,740
of...

3337
01:58:18,740 --> 01:58:20,740
If you look at this tree exploding with

3338
01:58:20,740 --> 01:58:24,780
the googly eyes and the other trees behind

3339
01:58:24,780 --> 01:58:25,840
it all flipping out.

3340
01:58:25,840 --> 01:58:29,080
I think it was a perfectly timed, well

3341
01:58:29,080 --> 01:58:34,840
-executed hijack of cultural mnemology.

3342
01:58:36,240 --> 01:58:37,440
I think so, too.

3343
01:58:37,500 --> 01:58:38,460
I like the piece a lot.

3344
01:58:38,520 --> 01:58:39,820
I like the two pieces from him.

3345
01:58:39,980 --> 01:58:42,160
I also like T-Rex Trump, which I

3346
01:58:42,160 --> 01:58:43,340
thought was competitive.

3347
01:58:43,780 --> 01:58:44,260
It was.

3348
01:58:44,920 --> 01:58:48,140
And so he had heard us going on

3349
01:58:48,140 --> 01:58:50,220
and on about the greatness of Darren O

3350
01:58:50,220 --> 01:58:51,480
'Neill and Jeffrey Rea.

3351
01:58:51,940 --> 01:58:54,560
And said to himself, what am I?

3352
01:58:54,680 --> 01:58:55,720
What, a chopped liver?

3353
01:58:56,480 --> 01:58:59,800
And so he cranked out a bunch of

3354
01:58:59,800 --> 01:59:00,180
stuff.

3355
01:59:01,820 --> 01:59:04,220
Obviously, he's in the same category as those

3356
01:59:04,220 --> 01:59:04,320
two.

3357
01:59:04,320 --> 01:59:05,960
Well, a couple of these guys are back.

3358
01:59:06,100 --> 01:59:07,560
Also, hello, Bob Dietrich.

3359
01:59:07,900 --> 01:59:09,040
He's moving up.

3360
01:59:09,080 --> 01:59:10,180
He's trying to do stuff.

3361
01:59:10,620 --> 01:59:11,500
Blue Acorn.

3362
01:59:11,560 --> 01:59:12,440
Who else was back?

3363
01:59:12,500 --> 01:59:15,780
I saw a couple of Matthew Dropko.

3364
01:59:16,700 --> 01:59:17,480
People are back.

3365
01:59:18,000 --> 01:59:18,440
Scaramanga.

3366
01:59:19,300 --> 01:59:20,660
A lot of people are back.

3367
01:59:20,660 --> 01:59:23,040
Once you start singling people out, the ones

3368
01:59:23,040 --> 01:59:24,320
who don't get mentioned.

3369
01:59:25,340 --> 01:59:26,260
Yeah, they go away.

3370
01:59:26,480 --> 01:59:27,900
Which is the way it should be, by

3371
01:59:27,900 --> 01:59:28,240
the way.

3372
01:59:28,460 --> 01:59:29,920
They get irked.

3373
01:59:30,340 --> 01:59:32,480
And the next thing you know, they're cranking

3374
01:59:32,480 --> 01:59:35,760
out stuff because they went to chops.

3375
01:59:35,860 --> 01:59:36,460
They got chops.

3376
01:59:36,580 --> 01:59:38,100
They want recognition.

3377
01:59:38,720 --> 01:59:39,740
Like Nick the Rat.

3378
01:59:41,220 --> 01:59:42,700
He's doing stuff.

3379
01:59:44,360 --> 01:59:46,600
I think he's trying to get into the

3380
01:59:46,600 --> 01:59:47,700
AI swing of things.

3381
01:59:47,840 --> 01:59:49,160
It's not quite there for him yet.

3382
01:59:49,160 --> 01:59:50,540
It takes time.

3383
01:59:50,700 --> 01:59:51,160
It does.

3384
01:59:52,820 --> 01:59:53,540
It will happen.

3385
01:59:54,320 --> 01:59:56,540
I see a Parker Pauly showed up today.

3386
01:59:57,220 --> 01:59:59,760
I mean, Eli the Coffee Guy is doing

3387
01:59:59,760 --> 02:00:01,260
art stuff now.

3388
02:00:01,880 --> 02:00:02,980
So I like the diversity.

3389
02:00:03,180 --> 02:00:05,360
I like the diversity of artists and the

3390
02:00:05,360 --> 02:00:06,820
diversity of models used.

3391
02:00:07,700 --> 02:00:09,520
Finally, we're seeing something different.

3392
02:00:09,520 --> 02:00:11,780
So thank you very much, Blue Acorn, for

3393
02:00:11,780 --> 02:00:13,900
the artwork for our previous episode.

3394
02:00:14,560 --> 02:00:15,520
NoahGenArtGenerator.com.

3395
02:00:15,760 --> 02:00:18,360
We should just have a large language model

3396
02:00:18,360 --> 02:00:19,580
built right into this thing.

3397
02:00:19,660 --> 02:00:20,600
Now I think about it.

3398
02:00:22,380 --> 02:00:25,260
So everybody could participate on equal footing and

3399
02:00:25,260 --> 02:00:26,640
create all of the same slop.

3400
02:00:28,080 --> 02:00:30,360
As part of this value for value, we

3401
02:00:30,360 --> 02:00:32,700
always appreciate receiving treasure.

3402
02:00:33,060 --> 02:00:34,480
The third of the three T's.

3403
02:00:34,580 --> 02:00:36,700
Extremely important to keep the show going.

3404
02:00:37,400 --> 02:00:38,940
Many want it to go for four more

3405
02:00:38,940 --> 02:00:39,260
years.

3406
02:00:39,520 --> 02:00:39,940
We shall see.

3407
02:00:41,700 --> 02:00:43,900
And in this, we always thank everybody who

3408
02:00:43,900 --> 02:00:45,820
supports us with $50 or above.

3409
02:00:45,980 --> 02:00:47,280
And the whole idea is you can send

3410
02:00:47,280 --> 02:00:49,540
us whatever value you got out of it.

3411
02:00:49,840 --> 02:00:51,520
Just send it back at NoahGenArtGenerator.com.

3412
02:00:52,700 --> 02:00:55,960
Jeffrey Alessia is from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

3413
02:00:56,560 --> 02:01:00,480
He sent us $333.33. He receives an

3414
02:01:00,480 --> 02:01:03,380
executive producership title, which is a real title.

3415
02:01:03,480 --> 02:01:05,300
You can even use it on IMDB.com.

3416
02:01:05,580 --> 02:01:07,060
I do not have a note from Jeffrey.

3417
02:01:07,060 --> 02:01:09,760
You just skipped a guy at the top

3418
02:01:09,760 --> 02:01:10,220
of the list.

3419
02:01:10,480 --> 02:01:11,120
Oh, I'm sorry.

3420
02:01:11,340 --> 02:01:12,620
I didn't notice that.

3421
02:01:12,860 --> 02:01:14,240
My scroll was off.

3422
02:01:15,880 --> 02:01:16,400
Windows.

3423
02:01:17,540 --> 02:01:19,040
I'll do the top two then.

3424
02:01:20,280 --> 02:01:20,800
Damaskin.

3425
02:01:21,400 --> 02:01:23,820
Do you think it's Damaskin or Damaskini?

3426
02:01:25,540 --> 02:01:26,760
I have no idea.

3427
02:01:27,980 --> 02:01:30,120
He's from Boston or she is from Boston,

3428
02:01:30,260 --> 02:01:30,820
Massachusetts.

3429
02:01:31,420 --> 02:01:34,060
$343.75. Just Damaskin.

3430
02:01:34,940 --> 02:01:35,880
I think it's Damaskin.

3431
02:01:37,100 --> 02:01:38,520
There's two different spellings.

3432
02:01:38,540 --> 02:01:39,840
You're asking the wrong guy.

3433
02:01:40,400 --> 02:01:44,100
With the emphasis on Damaskin.

3434
02:01:44,180 --> 02:01:45,440
Oh, Damaskin.

3435
02:01:46,340 --> 02:01:46,980
Damaskin.

3436
02:01:47,140 --> 02:01:48,840
All right, Damaskin.

3437
02:01:48,920 --> 02:01:49,380
Thank you.

3438
02:01:50,060 --> 02:01:52,800
$343.75. And there is Jeffrey Alessia.

3439
02:01:53,280 --> 02:01:53,980
Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

3440
02:01:54,160 --> 02:01:57,060
$333.33. Double up karma for you.

3441
02:01:57,440 --> 02:02:00,740
You've got karma.

3442
02:02:01,300 --> 02:02:03,020
And there's Sir Mark.

3443
02:02:03,300 --> 02:02:05,160
Sir Mark Bendibus.

3444
02:02:05,840 --> 02:02:06,600
Oh, I'm sorry.

3445
02:02:07,500 --> 02:02:10,080
Which means bus in Polish.

3446
02:02:12,220 --> 02:02:13,180
Bendikowski.

3447
02:02:13,880 --> 02:02:14,840
Kowalski.

3448
02:02:15,120 --> 02:02:16,880
I think it's Bendikowski.

3449
02:02:18,600 --> 02:02:19,180
Bendikowski.

3450
02:02:20,080 --> 02:02:21,260
Yeah, Bendikowski.

3451
02:02:22,260 --> 02:02:23,520
Which is Bendibus.

3452
02:02:24,160 --> 02:02:26,080
He's in Warsaw, Poland.

3453
02:02:27,140 --> 02:02:27,860
Now you're talking.

3454
02:02:27,860 --> 02:02:28,280
Yeah.

3455
02:02:28,560 --> 02:02:29,840
Give us a report.

3456
02:02:30,240 --> 02:02:31,020
Some boots on the ground.

3457
02:02:31,180 --> 02:02:32,660
What do you think is going on?

3458
02:02:32,820 --> 02:02:34,080
The signal is reaching Poland.

3459
02:02:34,620 --> 02:02:37,280
The dipole is finally dynamite.

3460
02:02:37,920 --> 02:02:40,100
He came up with $333.33. And he

3461
02:02:40,100 --> 02:02:43,320
says, Adam and John, Kurwa love you.

3462
02:02:43,740 --> 02:02:44,260
Kurwa.

3463
02:02:45,440 --> 02:02:46,540
What does that mean?

3464
02:02:46,780 --> 02:02:49,800
It's kind of a Polish semi-swear word.

3465
02:02:51,680 --> 02:02:52,800
Somebody loves us.

3466
02:02:52,980 --> 02:02:53,540
Like crap.

3467
02:02:53,700 --> 02:02:54,600
Crap, I love you.

3468
02:02:54,700 --> 02:02:55,380
Something like that.

3469
02:02:55,520 --> 02:02:56,560
The comics are blogger.

3470
02:02:56,560 --> 02:02:56,720
I don't know.

3471
02:02:56,800 --> 02:02:57,540
He taught me the word.

3472
02:02:58,460 --> 02:02:59,840
Hey, and there's David Byrne of the Talking

3473
02:02:59,840 --> 02:03:00,960
Heads from Staten Island.

3474
02:03:02,720 --> 02:03:04,440
We don't know if it's David Byrne from

3475
02:03:04,440 --> 02:03:06,120
the Talking Heads, but it is David Byrne.

3476
02:03:06,380 --> 02:03:07,280
That would be Byrne's.

3477
02:03:07,460 --> 02:03:08,020
This is Byrne.

3478
02:03:08,400 --> 02:03:09,200
Oh, yeah, it's Byrne.

3479
02:03:09,500 --> 02:03:12,120
$234 associate executive producership for you, a real

3480
02:03:12,120 --> 02:03:12,460
credit.

3481
02:03:12,580 --> 02:03:14,100
He says, don't forget to tip your waitress

3482
02:03:14,100 --> 02:03:14,980
and try the veal.

3483
02:03:15,320 --> 02:03:15,740
All right.

3484
02:03:15,860 --> 02:03:16,880
Thank you, Staten Island.

3485
02:03:18,140 --> 02:03:20,300
And here he is, our La Jolla Salt

3486
02:03:20,300 --> 02:03:26,560
Corporation representative at $210.60. Are you stuck

3487
02:03:26,560 --> 02:03:27,880
in a linguistic rut?

3488
02:03:27,900 --> 02:03:29,360
This is the only note we got, actually.

3489
02:03:30,260 --> 02:03:33,160
The only note, except for Linda.

3490
02:03:33,940 --> 02:03:36,440
Are you stuck in a linguistic rut?

3491
02:03:36,500 --> 02:03:38,340
By the way, at the end of the

3492
02:03:38,340 --> 02:03:40,680
day, this and that, and the other thing

3493
02:03:40,680 --> 02:03:42,040
clinging to your lingo.

3494
02:03:44,540 --> 02:03:46,460
You know, Mark Levin, by the way, if

3495
02:03:46,460 --> 02:03:47,400
you listen to Mark Levin.

3496
02:03:47,460 --> 02:03:47,960
Oh, boy, here we go.

3497
02:03:47,980 --> 02:03:50,960
He can't go five seconds without saying, and

3498
02:03:50,960 --> 02:03:52,260
so on and so forth.

3499
02:03:52,900 --> 02:03:53,780
Oh, boy.

3500
02:03:53,980 --> 02:03:55,660
Or so forth, and so on and so

3501
02:03:55,660 --> 02:03:56,020
forth.

3502
02:03:56,020 --> 02:03:58,880
And there's a whole bunch of these things

3503
02:03:58,880 --> 02:03:59,960
and so on and so forth.

3504
02:04:00,900 --> 02:04:01,100
Okay.

3505
02:04:02,320 --> 02:04:03,160
It's just ridiculous.

3506
02:04:04,160 --> 02:04:04,300
It does.

3507
02:04:04,420 --> 02:04:06,260
I should make a, I could do a

3508
02:04:06,260 --> 02:04:07,100
super cut.

3509
02:04:07,660 --> 02:04:09,720
Knock him out with a large whole cloth,

3510
02:04:10,620 --> 02:04:12,780
period, full stop with the AC.

3511
02:04:13,060 --> 02:04:13,520
I don't know.

3512
02:04:13,600 --> 02:04:15,900
He's lining these things up with it, with

3513
02:04:15,900 --> 02:04:17,200
a sea salt scrub.

3514
02:04:17,380 --> 02:04:17,840
Oh, there it is.

3515
02:04:17,840 --> 02:04:19,420
This is the main part he wants us

3516
02:04:19,420 --> 02:04:19,800
to say.

3517
02:04:20,000 --> 02:04:20,800
Here it is.

3518
02:04:21,540 --> 02:04:23,180
Yeah, sea salt scrub from La Jolla.

3519
02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:25,600
LaJollaSalt.com.

3520
02:04:25,600 --> 02:04:29,730
Moisturize, exfoliate, relax, and enjoy your soothing scents

3521
02:04:30,220 --> 02:04:32,600
to reset your mental buffers.

3522
02:04:33,860 --> 02:04:37,480
Cleanse and moisturize your skin and speech patterns

3523
02:04:37,480 --> 02:04:38,040
today.

3524
02:04:40,390 --> 02:04:43,840
Then he says speech pattern cleaning, cleansing not

3525
02:04:43,840 --> 02:04:44,280
guaranteed.

3526
02:04:44,560 --> 02:04:46,040
Please do not eat the product.

3527
02:04:48,000 --> 02:04:48,980
Don't eat the product.

3528
02:04:49,940 --> 02:04:52,640
But he says, please support the show, people.

3529
02:04:53,580 --> 02:04:54,320
21060.

3530
02:04:54,990 --> 02:05:00,280
And there's Matthew Martell from MartellHardware.com.

3531
02:05:00,400 --> 02:05:01,680
He's in Broomall, Pennsylvania.

3532
02:05:02,100 --> 02:05:07,340
$210.60. He says, hey, JCD, to your

3533
02:05:07,340 --> 02:05:09,000
point, I digress.

3534
02:05:09,660 --> 02:05:11,340

We're all going to die.

3539
02:05:21,120 --> 02:05:22,300
Hot Pockets.

3540
02:05:22,500 --> 02:05:23,680
Short and sweet.

3541
02:05:24,320 --> 02:05:27,820
Linda Lou Patkin, Castle Rock, Colorado, 200.

3542
02:05:28,120 --> 02:05:30,500

3543
02:05:30,500 --> 02:05:32,140
resume that gets results.

3544
02:05:32,860 --> 02:05:36,840
Go to ImageMakersInc.com for all your executive

3545
02:05:36,840 --> 02:05:39,940
resume and job search needs.

3546
02:05:40,140 --> 02:05:41,520
That's ImageMakersInc with a K.

3547
02:05:42,100 --> 02:05:44,760
And work with Linda Lou, Duchess of Jobs

3548
02:05:44,760 --> 02:05:46,840
and writer of winning resumes.

3549
02:05:47,160 --> 02:05:50,600
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

3550
02:05:50,780 --> 02:05:52,280
Let's vote for jobs.

3551
02:05:52,940 --> 02:05:54,420
You've got karma.

3552
02:05:55,460 --> 02:05:57,000
All right, Linda Lou, thank you.

3553
02:05:57,060 --> 02:05:59,080
And then we have a Bitcoin donation coming

3554
02:05:59,080 --> 02:06:02,080
in through Strike, which is available at knowagendadonations

3555
02:06:02,080 --> 02:06:02,900
.com, $200.

3556
02:06:03,340 --> 02:06:05,780
No idea who it's from, which is unfortunate,

3557
02:06:05,980 --> 02:06:07,200
but if you send us a note, we'll

3558
02:06:07,200 --> 02:06:08,960
gladly make good on that.

3559
02:06:09,080 --> 02:06:11,380
Thank you to these executive and associate executive

3560
02:06:11,380 --> 02:06:11,760
producers.

3561
02:06:11,920 --> 02:06:14,560
Very short list, and I don't think the

3562
02:06:14,560 --> 02:06:22,380
15 and above is much longer, but that's

3563
02:06:22,380 --> 02:06:23,560
just the way the show works.

3564
02:06:23,740 --> 02:06:26,780
That's why you don't hear pre-packaged corporate

3565
02:06:26,780 --> 02:06:30,200
messaging and ads and none of that stuff.

3566
02:06:30,720 --> 02:06:32,800
I mean, sure, people get plugs, plugs all

3567
02:06:32,800 --> 02:06:33,080
they want.

3568
02:06:33,140 --> 02:06:34,420
You can plug whatever you want at any

3569
02:06:34,420 --> 02:06:34,760
time.

3570
02:06:35,060 --> 02:06:36,220
We're happy with that.

3571
02:06:36,660 --> 02:06:39,780
But there's no collusion, there's no rehearsal, there's

3572
02:06:39,780 --> 02:06:43,320
no scripts, and no meetings.

3573
02:06:43,580 --> 02:06:45,460
Boy, do we hate meetings with advertisers.

3574
02:06:45,740 --> 02:06:46,700
That's just the worst.

3575
02:06:47,040 --> 02:06:53,200
And we're not interrupting in a big ad

3576
02:06:53,200 --> 02:06:53,680
load.

3577
02:06:54,760 --> 02:06:57,960
So go to knowagendadonations.com and support us,

3578
02:06:58,320 --> 02:06:59,440
any amount, any time.

3579
02:06:59,580 --> 02:07:00,980
Whatever you feel you got out of the

3580
02:07:00,980 --> 02:07:01,960
show, send it back to us.

3581
02:07:02,000 --> 02:07:03,600
You can also set up a recurring donation,

3582
02:07:04,240 --> 02:07:05,980
which is any amount, any frequency.

3583
02:07:06,160 --> 02:07:07,000
Again, all up to you.

3584
02:07:07,040 --> 02:07:09,620
We do love the numerology, and if you

3585
02:07:09,620 --> 02:07:12,440
have a current recurring donation, please check it.

3586
02:07:12,480 --> 02:07:14,060
Make sure that your credit card or whatever

3587
02:07:14,060 --> 02:07:16,660
payment system you're using is still valid, because

3588
02:07:16,660 --> 02:07:19,140
those do tend to expire from time to

3589
02:07:19,140 --> 02:07:19,400
time.

3590
02:07:19,500 --> 02:07:21,580
Thank you again to our executive and associate

3591
02:07:21,580 --> 02:07:23,880
executive producers for episode 1837.

3592
02:07:24,140 --> 02:07:25,400
Our formula is this.

3593
02:07:26,220 --> 02:07:28,500
We go out, we hit people in the

3594
02:07:28,500 --> 02:07:28,760
mouth.

3595
02:07:44,530 --> 02:07:47,810
I have two Ukraine clips that we can

3596
02:07:47,810 --> 02:07:49,290
get out of the way and keep up

3597
02:07:49,290 --> 02:07:50,330
with that a bit.

3598
02:07:50,870 --> 02:07:50,970
Okay.

3599
02:07:52,370 --> 02:07:56,050
One is an analysis from Colonel McGregor, but

3600
02:07:56,050 --> 02:07:57,310
the first one I want to play is

3601
02:07:57,310 --> 02:07:58,270
the Ukraine update.

3602
02:07:58,450 --> 02:08:00,010
This is from yesterday in NPR.

3603
02:08:00,290 --> 02:08:02,170
U.S. officials say progress was made in

3604
02:08:02,170 --> 02:08:04,590
trilateral talks with Russia and Ukraine to end

3605
02:08:04,590 --> 02:08:06,590
Moscow's nearly four-year-long war.

3606
02:08:06,810 --> 02:08:08,030
NPR's Tamara Keith reports.

3607
02:08:08,530 --> 02:08:10,470
The U.S. team spoke to reporters after

3608
02:08:10,470 --> 02:08:12,690
two days of meetings in Abu Dhabi with

3609
02:08:12,690 --> 02:08:15,350
high-level delegations from Ukraine and Russia.

3610
02:08:17,270 --> 02:08:18,650
They said just getting them to the table

3611
02:08:18,650 --> 02:08:21,150
to talk is a big step and, quote,

3612
02:08:21,330 --> 02:08:23,270
the conversations were very respectful.

3613
02:08:23,850 --> 02:08:26,590
Even if there were no significant breakthroughs, they

3614
02:08:26,590 --> 02:08:28,950
said having everyone in the same room was

3615
02:08:28,950 --> 02:08:32,650
progress after months of at times frustrating shuttle

3616
02:08:32,650 --> 02:08:33,250
diplomacy.

3617
02:08:33,910 --> 02:08:37,210
Major sticking points remain, including how territory will

3618
02:08:37,210 --> 02:08:39,850
be divided up and the terms of de

3619
02:08:39,850 --> 02:08:41,870
-escalation if there is a deal.

3620
02:08:42,350 --> 02:08:44,490
The officials say the next meeting has already

3621
02:08:44,490 --> 02:08:47,350
been set for a week from now, in

3622
02:08:47,350 --> 02:08:47,510
Abu Dhabi.

3623
02:08:47,870 --> 02:08:50,770
Meanwhile, Russia launched hundreds of drones and missiles

3624
02:08:50,770 --> 02:08:52,930
at Ukraine's two largest cities as the talks

3625
02:08:52,930 --> 02:08:53,410
went on.

3626
02:08:53,610 --> 02:08:54,830
This is NPR News.

3627
02:08:55,550 --> 02:08:58,610
Did you hear Zelensky at Davos?

3628
02:09:00,690 --> 02:09:03,570
Oh, I don't know if I had.

3629
02:09:04,810 --> 02:09:05,370
Did you have it?

3630
02:09:05,570 --> 02:09:08,970
Yeah, I have a Minute 10 report.

3631
02:09:09,590 --> 02:09:11,190
It's kind of funny because, well, you'll hear

3632
02:09:11,190 --> 02:09:11,790
it in this clip.

3633
02:09:12,450 --> 02:09:15,790
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky slammed Europe in his

3634
02:09:15,790 --> 02:09:18,850
address at a forum in Davos for their

3635
02:09:18,850 --> 02:09:21,710
inaction, describing it as a lost continent.

3636
02:09:22,250 --> 02:09:25,250
In his scathing critique, Zelensky says Europe is

3637
02:09:25,250 --> 02:09:27,310
stuck in an endless cycle of failing to

3638
02:09:27,310 --> 02:09:31,210
defend itself or decisively supporting Ukraine, likening the

3639
02:09:31,210 --> 02:09:33,790
situation to the U.S. film Groundhog Day.

3640
02:09:33,890 --> 02:09:36,170
What about the ceasefire itself?

3641
02:09:36,530 --> 02:09:38,070
Who can help make it happen?

3642
02:09:38,530 --> 02:09:41,650
Europe loves to discuss the future but avoids

3643
02:09:41,650 --> 02:09:48,170
taking action today, action that defines the future.

3644
02:09:49,110 --> 02:09:51,950
Why can't President Trump stop tankers from the

3645
02:09:51,950 --> 02:09:55,690
Shadow Fleet and seize oil, but Europe doesn't?

3646
02:09:55,830 --> 02:10:00,010
Russian oil is being transported right along European

3647
02:10:00,010 --> 02:10:00,570
shores.

3648
02:10:00,950 --> 02:10:04,070
That oil funds the war against Ukraine.

3649
02:10:04,510 --> 02:10:07,130
That oil helps destabilize Europe.

3650
02:10:07,590 --> 02:10:10,430
So Russian oil must be stopped and confiscated

3651
02:10:10,430 --> 02:10:12,930
and sold for Europe's benefit.

3652
02:10:13,250 --> 02:10:13,790
Why not?

3653
02:10:17,270 --> 02:10:19,330
Ask Donald Trump to discuss the latest on

3654
02:10:19,330 --> 02:10:21,590
the ground and ongoing peace efforts.

3655
02:10:21,730 --> 02:10:23,470
I think Trump literally gave him a piece

3656
02:10:23,470 --> 02:10:24,730
of paper, say this.

3657
02:10:25,810 --> 02:10:28,910
He had a meeting with the Trump and

3658
02:10:28,910 --> 02:10:32,190
then he said, hey, these Europeans, they're still

3659
02:10:32,190 --> 02:10:34,250
taking Russian oil from ghost ships.

3660
02:10:34,370 --> 02:10:36,070
They're funding the war against us.

3661
02:10:37,010 --> 02:10:37,330
Hmm.

3662
02:10:38,130 --> 02:10:42,190
Yeah, you know, what you said was kind

3663
02:10:42,190 --> 02:10:43,290
of offhanded.

3664
02:10:43,450 --> 02:10:45,950
But I think you actually might be correct.

3665
02:10:46,150 --> 02:10:47,810
I wasn't it wasn't that offhanded.

3666
02:10:47,970 --> 02:10:49,730
I mean, when I heard the report, I'm

3667
02:10:49,730 --> 02:10:52,150
like, well, that's obvious why he said that.

3668
02:10:53,430 --> 02:10:55,330
Trump said, don't don't screw it up, man.

3669
02:10:55,350 --> 02:10:55,910
Say this.

3670
02:10:56,150 --> 02:10:57,810
Those guys suck in Europe.

3671
02:10:57,870 --> 02:10:58,450
They suck.

3672
02:10:59,870 --> 02:11:01,370
Yeah, they suck.

3673
02:11:01,490 --> 02:11:02,470
Well, he's not wrong.

3674
02:11:02,670 --> 02:11:02,930
No.

3675
02:11:04,070 --> 02:11:04,470
All right.

3676
02:11:04,530 --> 02:11:06,530
Well, so we go to Colonel McGregor.

3677
02:11:06,570 --> 02:11:09,670
He's got this show, you know, and doesn't

3678
02:11:09,670 --> 02:11:10,710
answer your calls.

3679
02:11:11,650 --> 02:11:12,110
No, no.

3680
02:11:12,210 --> 02:11:13,950
But he'll do anybody else's podcast.

3681
02:11:13,950 --> 02:11:16,330
But he won't do an interview with us

3682
02:11:16,930 --> 02:11:21,050
because, you know, we're we're just the best.

3683
02:11:21,310 --> 02:11:22,550
You might ask a real question.

3684
02:11:22,690 --> 02:11:25,090
But but he does have an interesting little

3685
02:11:25,090 --> 02:11:29,430
screed type of analysis here that is worth

3686
02:11:29,430 --> 02:11:30,110
listening to.

3687
02:11:30,250 --> 02:11:32,670
President Trump doesn't seem to want to kill

3688
02:11:32,670 --> 02:11:33,810
the bad ideas.

3689
02:11:34,890 --> 02:11:37,330
You know, he's he's got his own set

3690
02:11:37,330 --> 02:11:38,250
of bad ideas.

3691
02:11:38,970 --> 02:11:40,810
He could have gone into NATO and said,

3692
02:11:40,870 --> 02:11:42,350
listen, this is over.

3693
02:11:42,810 --> 02:11:45,190
The United States will not support war with

3694
02:11:45,190 --> 02:11:45,510
Russia.

3695
02:11:46,130 --> 02:11:48,650
We want to normalize our relations with Russia.

3696
02:11:48,950 --> 02:11:50,850
We want to do business with Russia.

3697
02:11:51,410 --> 02:11:53,670
Russia is not interested in conquering Europe.

3698
02:11:54,010 --> 02:11:57,090
So sit down, shut up and get on

3699
02:11:57,090 --> 02:11:57,950
board with us.

3700
02:11:58,430 --> 02:11:59,570
And if you're not going to get on

3701
02:11:59,570 --> 02:12:01,310
board with us, that's fine.

3702
02:12:01,530 --> 02:12:04,650
Then get on another ship because we're not

3703
02:12:04,650 --> 02:12:05,650
sailing the war.

3704
02:12:05,650 --> 02:12:07,250
He could have done that.

3705
02:12:07,670 --> 02:12:07,830
Yeah.

3706
02:12:07,970 --> 02:12:08,690
He done it.

3707
02:12:08,850 --> 02:12:10,610
No, he hasn't.

3708
02:12:10,710 --> 02:12:12,190
And then he looks look at a place

3709
02:12:12,190 --> 02:12:14,530
like Kiev under this man, Zelensky.

3710
02:12:15,030 --> 02:12:17,110
So Lensky is a defeated regime.

3711
02:12:18,050 --> 02:12:20,330
Ukraine has been defeated, if not destroyed.

3712
02:12:20,670 --> 02:12:21,490
Shut up.

3713
02:12:21,870 --> 02:12:23,930
We're going to sort this out and you're

3714
02:12:23,930 --> 02:12:25,430
going to live with what we come up

3715
02:12:25,430 --> 02:12:25,690
with.

3716
02:12:26,070 --> 02:12:28,970
People had common sense 100, 200 years ago

3717
02:12:28,970 --> 02:12:30,250
when they settled these wars.

3718
02:12:30,450 --> 02:12:31,850
They took that position.

3719
02:12:32,110 --> 02:12:34,450
But again, when did they do that?

3720
02:12:34,450 --> 02:12:38,050
They did it after the Napoleonic Wars because

3721
02:12:38,050 --> 02:12:40,030
they'd seen millions of people die.

3722
02:12:40,450 --> 02:12:42,930
They'd seen cities and towns destroyed.

3723
02:12:43,050 --> 02:12:44,430
They didn't want that anymore.

3724
02:12:44,850 --> 02:12:46,890
It took 100 years to forget it and

3725
02:12:46,890 --> 02:12:48,730
go back to Oregon in 1914.

3726
02:12:50,070 --> 02:12:52,470
No, that's from a historical standpoint.

3727
02:12:52,570 --> 02:12:52,990
Pretty good.

3728
02:12:55,550 --> 02:12:55,710
Yeah.

3729
02:12:57,290 --> 02:12:57,710
Yeah.

3730
02:12:57,870 --> 02:12:59,590
Want the Europeans?

3731
02:13:00,050 --> 02:13:00,590
They're nuts.

3732
02:13:01,010 --> 02:13:04,810
Well, along those lines, a little long, a

3733
02:13:04,810 --> 02:13:05,810
little over two minutes.

3734
02:13:06,690 --> 02:13:07,570
I know.

3735
02:13:07,830 --> 02:13:10,350
Well, if you get tired of it, then

3736
02:13:10,350 --> 02:13:10,870
we can stop.

3737
02:13:10,890 --> 02:13:12,270
Why do you ever get to this two

3738
02:13:12,270 --> 02:13:12,850
minute rule?

3739
02:13:12,970 --> 02:13:14,970
I don't remember us ever establishing it, but

3740
02:13:14,970 --> 02:13:15,370
we have.

3741
02:13:15,490 --> 02:13:17,110
I like 1.30 myself.

3742
02:13:17,390 --> 02:13:19,490
In fact, I prefer one.

3743
02:13:20,970 --> 02:13:23,730
But I use the two minute rule and

3744
02:13:23,730 --> 02:13:26,250
I always feel crappy when I look and

3745
02:13:26,250 --> 02:13:28,010
it comes out at 2.05. Yeah.

3746
02:13:28,110 --> 02:13:30,690
Well, that's exactly why I'm prefacing it by

3747
02:13:30,690 --> 02:13:33,090
saying I feel that you're apologizing in advance.

3748
02:13:33,190 --> 02:13:33,330
Yeah.

3749
02:13:33,350 --> 02:13:34,490
I feel it's too long.

3750
02:13:35,290 --> 02:13:37,350
But generally speaking, if it's too long, it's

3751
02:13:37,350 --> 02:13:38,050
usually good.

3752
02:13:39,090 --> 02:13:40,510
Well, you don't like the guy.

3753
02:13:40,670 --> 02:13:41,950
So it might be.

3754
02:13:42,210 --> 02:13:45,150
But on the periphery of Davos, there's all

3755
02:13:45,150 --> 02:13:47,430
these other little institutions and interviews.

3756
02:13:47,730 --> 02:13:49,330
You know, it's kind of like the Academy

3757
02:13:49,330 --> 02:13:50,650
Awards in a way.

3758
02:13:51,110 --> 02:13:52,570
You go to this tent, you do an

3759
02:13:52,570 --> 02:13:54,250
interview there, you go to that tent and

3760
02:13:54,250 --> 02:13:55,610
or you've got to talk to E!

3761
02:13:55,750 --> 02:13:56,150
Entertainment.

3762
02:13:56,310 --> 02:13:56,590
Does E!

3763
02:13:56,630 --> 02:13:58,810
Entertainment, they go belly up?

3764
02:13:58,830 --> 02:13:59,370
Are they gone?

3765
02:14:00,230 --> 02:14:00,810
Is that still around?

3766
02:14:00,930 --> 02:14:01,550
Not that I know of.

3767
02:14:01,590 --> 02:14:02,130
Is it still around?

3768
02:14:02,850 --> 02:14:03,070
E!

3769
02:14:03,110 --> 02:14:04,170
News, I think, is folded.

3770
02:14:04,170 --> 02:14:06,710
But the network is still around.

3771
02:14:06,790 --> 02:14:08,850
I think they still have a mic on

3772
02:14:08,850 --> 02:14:10,030
the red carpet.

3773
02:14:10,310 --> 02:14:11,750
I have to look into it now.

3774
02:14:12,110 --> 02:14:13,170
So I do.

3775
02:14:13,830 --> 02:14:14,850
I think we both do this.

3776
02:14:14,910 --> 02:14:17,850
I'm always cutting out pauses, particularly the like

3777
02:14:17,850 --> 02:14:18,770
France 24.

3778
02:14:19,310 --> 02:14:22,270
They leave long pauses whenever someone's being translated.

3779
02:14:22,850 --> 02:14:26,770
They always start with and the voice comes

3780
02:14:26,770 --> 02:14:28,170
over what I was trying to say.

3781
02:14:28,830 --> 02:14:30,970
I cut out all the waka taka waka.

3782
02:14:31,330 --> 02:14:31,930
Cut that out.

3783
02:14:32,110 --> 02:14:32,830
Yeah, it's annoying.

3784
02:14:32,830 --> 02:14:34,650
You know, it doesn't do anything.

3785
02:14:35,210 --> 02:14:36,030
I leave a snippet.

3786
02:14:36,610 --> 02:14:36,810
Yeah.

3787
02:14:37,930 --> 02:14:38,950
About that much.

3788
02:14:39,610 --> 02:14:41,590
So this is Yanis Varoufakis.

3789
02:14:43,170 --> 02:14:44,390
Roll eyes now.

3790
02:14:45,070 --> 02:14:45,290
He.

3791
02:14:46,030 --> 02:14:49,430
Now, what's interesting about him and this is

3792
02:14:49,430 --> 02:14:51,230
in his wheelhouse and this is not one

3793
02:14:51,230 --> 02:14:52,610
of those A.I. videos that I get

3794
02:14:52,610 --> 02:14:54,230
tricked into a couple of weeks ago.

3795
02:14:54,470 --> 02:14:56,190
This is him on stage being interviewed.

3796
02:14:57,570 --> 02:15:00,290
He was the finance minister later, I think,

3797
02:15:00,350 --> 02:15:02,430
prime minister, but the finance minister of Greece

3798
02:15:02,830 --> 02:15:05,310
when Europe when we had the euro crisis

3799
02:15:05,310 --> 02:15:08,450
and they blamed it all on Greece and

3800
02:15:08,450 --> 02:15:10,710
they knew it was so bad that Dutch

3801
02:15:10,710 --> 02:15:13,930
people were refusing to go to Greek restaurants.

3802
02:15:14,310 --> 02:15:16,130
That's how crazy Europe is.

3803
02:15:16,870 --> 02:15:18,950
But the Greeks screwed us, man.

3804
02:15:19,070 --> 02:15:20,870
So we're not going to support that.

3805
02:15:20,970 --> 02:15:21,250
Right.

3806
02:15:21,350 --> 02:15:21,590
Yeah.

3807
02:15:21,630 --> 02:15:22,730
Don't you remember that?

3808
02:15:23,310 --> 02:15:23,970
No, I don't remember.

3809
02:15:24,030 --> 02:15:25,390
I'm not going to Greek restaurant.

3810
02:15:25,490 --> 02:15:26,130
Oh, yeah.

3811
02:15:26,430 --> 02:15:26,930
Oh, yeah.

3812
02:15:27,010 --> 02:15:28,850
I could probably look it up on Bing

3813
02:15:28,850 --> 02:15:29,810
it and find it.

3814
02:15:30,450 --> 02:15:30,650
Yeah.

3815
02:15:30,650 --> 02:15:33,750
They wouldn't go to Greek restaurants and everyone

3816
02:15:33,750 --> 02:15:36,170
hated like, why are we in the north

3817
02:15:36,170 --> 02:15:37,990
suffering for you in the south?

3818
02:15:38,730 --> 02:15:42,730
It was the pigs, Portugal, Italy, Greece and

3819
02:15:42,730 --> 02:15:43,130
Spain.

3820
02:15:44,130 --> 02:15:44,990
Remember it now?

3821
02:15:45,070 --> 02:15:45,510
The pigs.

3822
02:15:45,690 --> 02:15:46,670
I remember the pigs.

3823
02:15:46,810 --> 02:15:47,410
Yeah, the pigs.

3824
02:15:48,350 --> 02:15:52,430
And so the IMF swooped in with I

3825
02:15:52,430 --> 02:15:55,190
want to say Goldman Sachs, probably a couple

3826
02:15:55,190 --> 02:15:56,170
of other the big banks.

3827
02:15:57,090 --> 02:15:58,810
And they said, all right, ruin the place.

3828
02:15:58,810 --> 02:16:01,650
They ruined it and gave them austerity.

3829
02:16:02,690 --> 02:16:04,330
So Varoufakis has a bone to pick.

3830
02:16:05,170 --> 02:16:08,690
And he is explaining why the European Union

3831
02:16:08,690 --> 02:16:11,790
is cooked toast and will not work and

3832
02:16:11,790 --> 02:16:12,970
is bound to fail.

3833
02:16:13,490 --> 02:16:18,170
Europe made a grievous error in 1992 by

3834
02:16:18,170 --> 02:16:19,950
creating a federal money.

3835
02:16:20,230 --> 02:16:23,030
The idea was to create a monetary federation

3836
02:16:23,030 --> 02:16:25,770
and then on top of that, build a

3837
02:16:25,770 --> 02:16:26,470
political union.

3838
02:16:26,670 --> 02:16:29,490
But there was a Cambridge economist, Nicholas Cowder,

3839
02:16:29,850 --> 02:16:33,129
who in 1970, the new statesman warned Europeans

3840
02:16:33,129 --> 02:16:34,129
against doing this.

3841
02:16:34,490 --> 02:16:37,209
He said, if you make the mistake of

3842
02:16:37,209 --> 02:16:40,389
creating a monetary union as a first stepping

3843
02:16:40,389 --> 02:16:42,530
stone towards a political union, you will fail

3844
02:16:42,530 --> 02:16:45,090
because the monetary union will create an almighty

3845
02:16:45,090 --> 02:16:50,629
economic crisis that will poison the well of

3846
02:16:50,629 --> 02:16:54,450
any further consolidation, and then it will be

3847
02:16:54,450 --> 02:16:55,430
impossible to consolidate.

3848
02:16:56,209 --> 02:16:58,469
We had a chance with the euro crisis

3849
02:16:58,469 --> 02:17:01,690
to create a political union that goes along

3850
02:17:01,690 --> 02:17:03,590
with the monetary union.

3851
02:17:03,709 --> 02:17:04,370
We failed.

3852
02:17:04,670 --> 02:17:06,709
We failed dismally.

3853
02:17:07,150 --> 02:17:11,309
Instead we created new forms of rolling over

3854
02:17:11,309 --> 02:17:15,070
the debts and consolidating that which cannot be

3855
02:17:15,070 --> 02:17:15,670
consolidated.

3856
02:17:16,110 --> 02:17:17,610
Then we had the pandemic, which was another

3857
02:17:17,610 --> 02:17:18,450
great opportunity.

3858
02:17:18,930 --> 02:17:21,450
The result of these failures and this delay

3859
02:17:21,450 --> 02:17:24,350
is a complete political fragmentation.

3860
02:17:24,670 --> 02:17:26,730
Ten years ago, fifteen years ago, there was

3861
02:17:26,730 --> 02:17:27,309
Angela Merkel.

3862
02:17:27,469 --> 02:17:29,830
She was my greater political opponent.

3863
02:17:30,030 --> 02:17:31,330
I had many clashes with her.

3864
02:17:32,190 --> 02:17:33,750
But at least she had the political capital

3865
02:17:33,750 --> 02:17:35,790
to bring Europe together.

3866
02:17:36,510 --> 02:17:40,389
By delaying all this time, spending fifteen years

3867
02:17:40,389 --> 02:17:43,830
not investing at all, zero net investment in

3868
02:17:43,830 --> 02:17:46,469
the European Union, as a result of the

3869
02:17:46,469 --> 02:17:50,230
mishandling of the inevitable euro crisis, Germany is

3870
02:17:50,230 --> 02:17:51,110
deindustrializing.

3871
02:17:51,110 --> 02:17:54,389
So now Germany is renationalizing its policies.

3872
02:17:54,590 --> 02:17:56,510
The single market is finished, so the Brexit

3873
02:17:57,110 --> 02:17:59,230
discussion is gone, because there is not even

3874
02:17:59,230 --> 02:17:59,910
a single market.

3875
02:18:00,209 --> 02:18:01,889
Only on paper there is a single market

3876
02:18:01,889 --> 02:18:02,150
now.

3877
02:18:02,430 --> 02:18:05,250
So this fragmentation means that you can see

3878
02:18:05,250 --> 02:18:06,450
Trump appears.

3879
02:18:06,889 --> 02:18:08,690
Trump loathes the European Union.

3880
02:18:08,910 --> 02:18:11,330
He hates the European Union much more than

3881
02:18:11,330 --> 02:18:13,809
he hates China, for reasons of his own.

3882
02:18:14,190 --> 02:18:15,129
And what is Europe doing?

3883
02:18:15,410 --> 02:18:17,190
They are running around like headless chickens.

3884
02:18:17,969 --> 02:18:21,110
They are putting forward a preposterous military Keynesianism,

3885
02:18:21,170 --> 02:18:23,770
which is neither necessary nor feasible.

3886
02:18:24,150 --> 02:18:25,889
Europe does not have the capacity to create

3887
02:18:25,889 --> 02:18:27,170
a military-industrial complex.

3888
02:18:27,549 --> 02:18:28,910
It will never have the capacity.

3889
02:18:28,950 --> 02:18:30,230
If you want, we can discuss why.

3890
02:18:30,490 --> 02:18:32,129
So this is why I'm saying, with pain

3891
02:18:32,129 --> 02:18:36,709
in my heart, that Europe is simply slipping

3892
02:18:36,709 --> 02:18:37,590
into irrelevance.

3893
02:18:38,830 --> 02:18:40,209
Yeah, I think he's right.

3894
02:18:41,090 --> 02:18:42,410
Are you going to let that go longer?

3895
02:18:43,209 --> 02:18:44,309
You liked it, huh?

3896
02:18:45,490 --> 02:18:46,150
Huh, interesting.

3897
02:18:46,150 --> 02:18:46,270
Yeah.

3898
02:18:46,270 --> 02:18:48,930
I would like to hear his conversation about

3899
02:18:48,930 --> 02:18:51,969
why they can't create a military-industrial complex.

3900
02:18:52,410 --> 02:18:56,030
Well, they don't have power anymore in Germany

3901
02:18:56,030 --> 02:18:57,990
to even make steel.

3902
02:18:58,270 --> 02:19:01,670
You mean literal electricity when you say power?

3903
02:19:01,950 --> 02:19:04,990
Yes, actual electricity is off the table.

3904
02:19:05,270 --> 02:19:07,930
I still see those videos of them imploding

3905
02:19:07,930 --> 02:19:09,070
their nuclear plants.

3906
02:19:09,510 --> 02:19:09,969
Dopes.

3907
02:19:11,250 --> 02:19:12,389
And they're doubling down.

3908
02:19:13,250 --> 02:19:14,450
You know, what did I have here?

3909
02:19:14,530 --> 02:19:15,290
I got a note.

3910
02:19:16,770 --> 02:19:17,910
Here, Amsterdam.

3911
02:19:19,469 --> 02:19:20,389
Amsterdam.

3912
02:19:21,490 --> 02:19:23,590
Now, they do have a nut job mayor,

3913
02:19:23,790 --> 02:19:28,389
but Amsterdam is banning advertising of fossil fuels

3914
02:19:28,570 --> 02:19:29,469
and meat.

3915
02:19:31,250 --> 02:19:33,230
So you may not long...

3916
02:19:35,250 --> 02:19:40,129
You may no longer advertise air travel, cruises,

3917
02:19:41,129 --> 02:19:47,150
combustion vehicles, McDonald's, because they can't show a

3918
02:19:47,150 --> 02:19:47,650
hamburger.

3919
02:19:48,930 --> 02:19:49,090
Yeah.

3920
02:19:51,270 --> 02:19:54,290
How do people elect people like this?

3921
02:19:54,550 --> 02:19:58,070
Well, what happens is it's just like the

3922
02:19:58,070 --> 02:19:59,190
bigger parliament.

3923
02:19:59,190 --> 02:20:01,110
They have to put together a coalition.

3924
02:20:01,930 --> 02:20:02,430
So they have...

3925
02:20:02,430 --> 02:20:05,430
The mayor is from GroenLinks, which is green

3926
02:20:05,430 --> 02:20:05,870
left.

3927
02:20:06,050 --> 02:20:08,150
I've never heard a better description for a

3928
02:20:08,150 --> 02:20:08,810
party ever.

3929
02:20:09,310 --> 02:20:13,690
The green lefties and the party for animals.

3930
02:20:15,350 --> 02:20:19,130
So they have to get something.

3931
02:20:19,230 --> 02:20:23,230
So basically the environmentalist plus PETA.

3932
02:20:23,510 --> 02:20:23,850
Yeah.

3933
02:20:24,090 --> 02:20:25,050
Pretty much.

3934
02:20:25,850 --> 02:20:26,010
Yeah.

3935
02:20:26,990 --> 02:20:28,470
Environmentalist plus PETA.

3936
02:20:29,090 --> 02:20:29,350
Yeah.

3937
02:20:29,470 --> 02:20:30,490
So they're banning that.

3938
02:20:31,390 --> 02:20:31,670
Yeah.

3939
02:20:31,910 --> 02:20:32,770
It's a mess.

3940
02:20:33,310 --> 02:20:35,250
That brings me to a clip that I

3941
02:20:35,250 --> 02:20:35,970
wonder...

3942
02:20:35,970 --> 02:20:37,210
I don't know if this is legit.

3943
02:20:37,310 --> 02:20:38,990
I can't document it, but I'm going to

3944
02:20:38,990 --> 02:20:39,510
have to start.

3945
02:20:39,950 --> 02:20:42,010
As you recall, five years ago, we used

3946
02:20:42,010 --> 02:20:44,170
to do Prime Minister Question Time as a

3947
02:20:44,170 --> 02:20:45,210
regular issue on the show.

3948
02:20:45,590 --> 02:20:45,690
Yes.

3949
02:20:45,910 --> 02:20:47,010
And this comes from that.

3950
02:20:47,250 --> 02:20:48,670
Supposedly, I don't know if this is AI

3951
02:20:48,670 --> 02:20:50,230
or not, but I believe it to be

3952
02:20:50,230 --> 02:20:50,630
real.

3953
02:20:51,170 --> 02:20:54,170
And this is a green member of the

3954
02:20:54,930 --> 02:20:57,730
UK parliament asking a question, which is a

3955
02:20:57,730 --> 02:20:59,990
very simple question that could be easily answered.

3956
02:21:00,090 --> 02:21:01,710
It's probably reasonable.

3957
02:21:02,450 --> 02:21:05,970
But Starmer goes off the deep end and

3958
02:21:05,970 --> 02:21:08,130
condemns the Green Party instead of answering the

3959
02:21:08,130 --> 02:21:11,190
question with any real foundation.

3960
02:21:11,510 --> 02:21:13,830
But try playing it.

3961
02:21:13,990 --> 02:21:16,230
For decades, our rivers, lakes, and seas have

3962
02:21:16,230 --> 02:21:18,430
paid the price of a failing system.

3963
02:21:18,530 --> 02:21:20,130
So the water white paper is a welcome

3964
02:21:20,130 --> 02:21:22,250
first step in beginning to set things right.

3965
02:21:22,570 --> 02:21:23,770
What is she talking about here?

3966
02:21:23,810 --> 02:21:24,450
It's hard to get into.

3967
02:21:24,450 --> 02:21:27,570
She's talking about water pollution based on farming

3968
02:21:27,570 --> 02:21:31,870
practices, which contribute to rivers and streams being

3969
02:21:31,870 --> 02:21:33,810
polluted by chemicals.

3970
02:21:33,990 --> 02:21:34,430
That's helpful.

3971
02:21:34,430 --> 02:21:36,910
For decades, our rivers, lakes, and seas have

3972
02:21:36,910 --> 02:21:39,090
paid the price of a failing system.

3973
02:21:39,250 --> 02:21:40,830
So the water white paper is a welcome

3974
02:21:40,830 --> 02:21:42,950
first step in beginning to set things right.

3975
02:21:43,370 --> 02:21:45,250
But there's a glaring gap.

3976
02:21:45,750 --> 02:21:49,170
Agricultural pollution contributes 40% of the pollution

3977
02:21:49,170 --> 02:21:52,390
in our waterways, but merits only one single

3978
02:21:52,390 --> 02:21:54,190
page in this white paper.

3979
02:21:54,810 --> 02:21:56,130
Can the PM tell me why on earth

3980
02:21:56,130 --> 02:21:56,890
this is the case?

3981
02:21:57,210 --> 02:22:00,210
And when he will start working with farmers

3982
02:22:00,210 --> 02:22:03,970
to support river-friendly farming practices and treat

3983
02:22:03,970 --> 02:22:06,790
agricultural pollution as seriously as sewage pollution?

3984
02:22:08,170 --> 02:22:10,670
We inherited a real mess on water and

3985
02:22:10,670 --> 02:22:12,470
we're taking the most effective and far-reaching

3986
02:22:12,470 --> 02:22:14,290
measures to deal with it.

3987
02:22:14,770 --> 02:22:16,150
But I have to say, as someone who

3988
02:22:16,150 --> 02:22:17,930
stood to lead her party, I wonder what

3989
02:22:17,930 --> 02:22:20,390
she makes of how her leader is responding

3990
02:22:20,390 --> 02:22:22,450
to this global uncertainty.

3991
02:22:22,990 --> 02:22:24,710
Because what he's saying is this is the

3992
02:22:24,710 --> 02:22:26,610
time, this is the moment to withdraw from

3993
02:22:26,610 --> 02:22:26,910
NATO.

3994
02:22:27,670 --> 02:22:29,390
This is the time to kick the US

3995
02:22:29,390 --> 02:22:30,690
out of our military bases.

3996
02:22:31,270 --> 02:22:33,690
This is the time to negotiate, hear this,

3997
02:22:33,750 --> 02:22:36,350
with Putin to give up our nuclear deterrent.

3998
02:22:36,430 --> 02:22:37,670
I'm sure Putin will be very quick on

3999
02:22:37,670 --> 02:22:38,990
the line for that one.

4000
02:22:39,390 --> 02:22:42,470
It's as reckless and irresponsible as their plan

4001
02:22:42,470 --> 02:22:44,910
to legalize heroin and crack cocaine.

4002
02:22:45,190 --> 02:22:46,690
That's the Green Party now.

4003
02:22:46,990 --> 02:22:49,190
High on drugs, soft on Putin.

4004
02:22:50,710 --> 02:22:51,270
Wow.

4005
02:22:51,690 --> 02:22:52,890
What a moron.

4006
02:22:53,370 --> 02:22:56,030
There's no reason for him to do that.

4007
02:22:56,570 --> 02:22:57,090
No.

4008
02:22:57,890 --> 02:22:59,910
I wonder what the context was if they

4009
02:22:59,910 --> 02:23:00,910
were talking about Putin.

4010
02:23:01,090 --> 02:23:03,410
I'm going to have to start watching PMQT

4011
02:23:03,410 --> 02:23:03,990
again.

4012
02:23:04,230 --> 02:23:06,230
Well, I'm glad you brought up British Parliament

4013
02:23:06,230 --> 02:23:08,370
because I also have a clip from British

4014
02:23:08,370 --> 02:23:08,730
Parliament.

4015
02:23:09,390 --> 02:23:12,770
This is Lord Young and he is part

4016
02:23:12,770 --> 02:23:16,510
of the Free Speech Union, so whenever he

4017
02:23:16,510 --> 02:23:18,870
talks, no one's there, which is kind of

4018
02:23:18,870 --> 02:23:20,010
funny when you think about it.

4019
02:23:20,350 --> 02:23:21,110
That's typical.

4020
02:23:22,030 --> 02:23:26,390
And there's a law that he and his

4021
02:23:26,390 --> 02:23:29,470
Free Speech Union take exception to.

4022
02:23:29,570 --> 02:23:31,630
My Lords, I declare my interest as the

4023
02:23:31,630 --> 02:23:33,250
Director of the Free Speech Union and I

4024
02:23:33,250 --> 02:23:36,350
congratulate the four new members on their excellent

4025
02:23:36,350 --> 02:23:36,770
speeches.

4026
02:23:37,330 --> 02:23:41,130
I want to draw your Lordships' House attention

4027
02:23:41,130 --> 02:23:45,670
to just one section of the Employment Rights

4028
02:23:45,670 --> 02:23:49,630
Act and its impact on the hospitality sector,

4029
02:23:49,770 --> 02:23:53,550
namely Section 21, which extends the liability of

4030
02:23:53,550 --> 02:23:57,690
employers for the harassment of their employees to

4031
02:23:57,690 --> 02:23:58,770
third parties.

4032
02:23:58,950 --> 02:24:01,890
From October of this year, employers will have

4033
02:24:01,890 --> 02:24:05,010
a duty to protect their workers from third

4034
02:24:05,010 --> 02:24:05,510
parties.

4035
02:24:05,910 --> 02:24:07,690
I should make clear that we're not talking

4036
02:24:07,690 --> 02:24:11,770
about third-party sexual harassment, which they were

4037
02:24:11,770 --> 02:24:15,210
already liable for, but third-party non-sexual

4038
02:24:15,210 --> 02:24:15,670
harassment.

4039
02:24:15,930 --> 02:24:17,910
And what does that mean for the hospitality

4040
02:24:17,910 --> 02:24:18,390
sector?

4041
02:24:18,570 --> 02:24:21,290
It means employers will have to take all

4042
02:24:21,290 --> 02:24:23,930
reasonable steps, those are the words in the

4043
02:24:23,930 --> 02:24:29,470
Act, to protect their employees from harassment by

4044
02:24:29,470 --> 02:24:30,090
customers.

4045
02:24:30,410 --> 02:24:33,050
That might not sound too onerous until you

4046
02:24:33,050 --> 02:24:37,290
factor in that harassment includes indirect harassment, which

4047
02:24:37,290 --> 02:24:40,270
has been defined by the Employment Tribunal as

4048
02:24:40,270 --> 02:24:44,730
including overheard conversations, remarks, comments, jokes, that an

4049
02:24:44,730 --> 02:24:48,330
employee may find offensive or upsetting in virtue

4050
02:24:48,330 --> 02:24:49,990
of their protected characteristics.

4051
02:24:50,250 --> 02:24:52,550
And it's for that reason that the Free

4052
02:24:52,550 --> 02:24:55,730
Speech Union has been referring to Section 21

4053
02:24:55,730 --> 02:24:56,970
as the banter ban.

4054
02:24:57,510 --> 02:24:58,870
The banter ban.

4055
02:24:59,550 --> 02:25:01,270
So if your customers say...

4056
02:25:01,270 --> 02:25:03,470
Oh my God, did I hear what I

4057
02:25:03,470 --> 02:25:03,850
heard?

4058
02:25:04,630 --> 02:25:05,450
Yes, you did.

4059
02:25:05,890 --> 02:25:07,110
You heard what you heard.

4060
02:25:08,030 --> 02:25:08,710
So if someone...

4061
02:25:08,710 --> 02:25:10,890
In other words, they want to ban people

4062
02:25:10,890 --> 02:25:11,650
from mumbling.

4063
02:25:12,190 --> 02:25:12,550
Yes.

4064
02:25:13,130 --> 02:25:15,170
Or if you make a little joke and

4065
02:25:15,170 --> 02:25:19,630
the staff is offended by your joke and

4066
02:25:19,630 --> 02:25:20,870
they call that the banter...

4067
02:25:20,870 --> 02:25:23,370
I think they should call this the Noodle

4068
02:25:23,370 --> 02:25:24,650
Boy Offense Ban.

4069
02:25:25,310 --> 02:25:26,390
Noodle Boy, yeah.

4070
02:25:26,490 --> 02:25:28,190
Also known as Noobob.

4071
02:25:29,330 --> 02:25:32,490
I mean, this is how you destroy a

4072
02:25:32,490 --> 02:25:32,850
country.

4073
02:25:33,790 --> 02:25:34,590
But wait!

4074
02:25:34,810 --> 02:25:36,570
We have our own little problems here at

4075
02:25:36,570 --> 02:25:36,870
home.

4076
02:25:37,750 --> 02:25:40,250
My friend sent me this this morning from

4077
02:25:40,660 --> 02:25:43,150
the Harvard, T.H. Chan...

4078
02:25:43,150 --> 02:25:43,770
What was that?

4079
02:25:45,190 --> 02:25:46,570
It was a squeak.

4080
02:25:46,710 --> 02:25:49,130
You got a mouse in your pocket?

4081
02:25:50,830 --> 02:25:51,030
Yeah.

4082
02:25:51,750 --> 02:25:55,030
This is from the Harvard, T.H. Chan

4083
02:25:55,030 --> 02:25:59,110
School of Public Health that Chan is...

4084
02:25:59,110 --> 02:26:01,470
I think it's Zuckerberg's wife, isn't it?

4085
02:26:01,810 --> 02:26:02,790
Didn't they put the money in?

4086
02:26:02,870 --> 02:26:03,830
Oh, that could be, yeah.

4087
02:26:03,910 --> 02:26:04,430
I think so.

4088
02:26:05,650 --> 02:26:08,490
Thanks to research led by Harvard, T.H.

4089
02:26:08,590 --> 02:26:13,230
Chan School of Public Health, the American Psychiatric

4090
02:26:14,110 --> 02:26:19,150
Association, APA, has added a new term, a

4091
02:26:19,150 --> 02:26:25,350
new mental disorder into their Diagnostic and Statistical

4092
02:26:25,350 --> 02:26:28,490
Manual of Mental Disorders, also known as DSM.

4093
02:26:28,910 --> 02:26:31,470
This is the handbook for classifying and diagnosing

4094
02:26:31,470 --> 02:26:34,650
mental health conditions used by mental health care

4095
02:26:34,650 --> 02:26:36,130
providers around the country.

4096
02:26:36,790 --> 02:26:38,390
Are you ready for it?

4097
02:26:39,550 --> 02:26:40,270
No.

4098
02:26:40,270 --> 02:26:41,530
The new...

4099
02:26:42,730 --> 02:26:44,450
I'll wait until you're ready.

4100
02:26:45,070 --> 02:26:45,670
No, I'm ready.

4101
02:26:45,830 --> 02:26:50,990
So this is the new condition, mental health

4102
02:26:50,990 --> 02:26:51,510
condition.

4103
02:26:52,270 --> 02:26:53,610
Moral injury.

4104
02:26:55,330 --> 02:26:57,230
And I will give you the description of

4105
02:26:57,230 --> 02:26:58,150
moral injury.

4106
02:26:59,250 --> 02:27:03,590
It is psychological harm incurred from committing, witnessing,

4107
02:27:04,190 --> 02:27:07,930
or being subject to actions that violate one's

4108
02:27:07,930 --> 02:27:09,190
moral code.

4109
02:27:10,150 --> 02:27:12,170
That is now a mental condition.

4110
02:27:12,430 --> 02:27:13,570
Moral injury.

4111
02:27:16,920 --> 02:27:18,600
Well, that explains a lot.

4112
02:27:19,560 --> 02:27:22,080
And you can now get meds for it,

4113
02:27:22,120 --> 02:27:22,540
I guess.

4114
02:27:23,500 --> 02:27:24,460
Well, of course.

4115
02:27:24,880 --> 02:27:26,140
Moral injury.

4116
02:27:27,680 --> 02:27:29,900
The DSM should be outlawed.

4117
02:27:30,180 --> 02:27:31,740
That thing is just a...

4118
02:27:32,580 --> 02:27:36,080
It's just a license to give people SSRIs.

4119
02:27:36,080 --> 02:27:36,180
Drugs.

4120
02:27:36,200 --> 02:27:36,940
Drugs, yeah.

4121
02:27:37,680 --> 02:27:39,080
SSRIs for everything.

4122
02:27:40,060 --> 02:27:40,820
Nuts.

4123
02:27:41,660 --> 02:27:43,420
Hey, you're going to love this.

4124
02:27:44,280 --> 02:27:49,900
Your theory about the emergency that prompted the

4125
02:27:49,900 --> 02:27:53,060
return of our astronauts from the International Space

4126
02:27:53,060 --> 02:27:57,520
Station, would you like to reiterate your theory?

4127
02:27:58,200 --> 02:27:58,460
Yes.

4128
02:27:58,560 --> 02:28:02,280
There was a pregnancy caused in space and

4129
02:28:02,280 --> 02:28:03,920
they couldn't take a chance on it.

4130
02:28:03,940 --> 02:28:06,080
They couldn't give birth in space because there's

4131
02:28:06,080 --> 02:28:06,980
no...

4132
02:28:06,980 --> 02:28:09,120
The right doctors aren't up there or anything.

4133
02:28:09,280 --> 02:28:11,040
They had to shut...

4134
02:28:11,040 --> 02:28:13,080
They're not supposed to have sex, as far

4135
02:28:13,080 --> 02:28:14,460
as I know, and get pregnant up there,

4136
02:28:14,500 --> 02:28:15,040
but she did.

4137
02:28:15,140 --> 02:28:15,540
This woman.

4138
02:28:15,880 --> 02:28:17,380
That's why she was part of the team.

4139
02:28:17,520 --> 02:28:19,740
They hustled them all back to the United

4140
02:28:19,740 --> 02:28:22,720
States quietly to take care of the problem.

4141
02:28:23,800 --> 02:28:24,200
So...

4142
02:28:24,200 --> 02:28:25,080
Let her have a baby.

4143
02:28:25,360 --> 02:28:27,720
So we have not been told who had

4144
02:28:27,720 --> 02:28:30,220
the medical emergency because, of course, we wouldn't

4145
02:28:30,220 --> 02:28:31,660
want to violate HIPAA laws.

4146
02:28:32,100 --> 02:28:32,540
Oh, no.

4147
02:28:32,700 --> 02:28:35,820
And by the way, there's three males and

4148
02:28:35,820 --> 02:28:37,000
one female that came back.

4149
02:28:37,200 --> 02:28:37,420
Mm-hmm.

4150
02:28:38,100 --> 02:28:41,440
So here are two NASA astronauts who are

4151
02:28:41,440 --> 02:28:46,720
talking about this incident and they really are

4152
02:28:46,720 --> 02:28:50,500
so happy that the equipment on board was

4153
02:28:50,500 --> 02:28:53,640
there to diagnose the issue and get these

4154
02:28:53,640 --> 02:28:55,020
astronauts home quickly.

4155
02:28:55,740 --> 02:28:57,700
I think you'll be interested in what they

4156
02:28:57,700 --> 02:28:58,020
say.

4157
02:28:58,420 --> 02:29:00,760
The ultrasound technology has gotten better on planet

4158
02:29:00,760 --> 02:29:02,500
Earth and we've taken that into space and

4159
02:29:02,500 --> 02:29:05,360
having a portable ultrasound machine helped us in

4160
02:29:05,360 --> 02:29:06,040
this situation.

4161
02:29:06,280 --> 02:29:08,200
We were able to take a look at

4162
02:29:08,200 --> 02:29:09,640
things that we had and didn't have.

4163
02:29:10,060 --> 02:29:11,920
So when we had this emergency, the ultrasound

4164
02:29:11,920 --> 02:29:13,220
machine came in super handy.

4165
02:29:13,320 --> 02:29:16,080
So I'd recommend a portable ultrasound machine in

4166
02:29:16,080 --> 02:29:18,740
the future for sure for all space flights.

4167
02:29:18,860 --> 02:29:19,420
It really helped.

4168
02:29:19,840 --> 02:29:21,540
NASA made all the right decisions.

4169
02:29:22,060 --> 02:29:24,800
In my opinion, this is a really excellent

4170
02:29:24,800 --> 02:29:27,920
example of risk analysis and decision-making and

4171
02:29:27,920 --> 02:29:29,480
I'm very proud of the decision they made.

4172
02:29:29,880 --> 02:29:32,760
But sometimes things happen and surprises happen and

4173
02:29:32,760 --> 02:29:34,400
the team was ready and that was like

4174
02:29:34,400 --> 02:29:34,920
Xena said.

4175
02:29:36,220 --> 02:29:38,060
Preparation was super important.

4176
02:29:38,660 --> 02:29:40,360
An ultrasound machine.

4177
02:29:41,000 --> 02:29:41,320
Yeah.

4178
02:29:42,900 --> 02:29:46,880
You know, being a future grandfather, I love

4179
02:29:46,880 --> 02:29:49,380
the ultrasound pictures and the videos and the

4180
02:29:49,380 --> 02:29:50,380
heartbeat and everything.

4181
02:29:51,020 --> 02:29:53,400
And that's ultrasonic technology.

4182
02:29:54,280 --> 02:29:56,640
And it was the right gear to have

4183
02:29:56,640 --> 02:29:57,140
on board.

4184
02:29:57,360 --> 02:29:59,700
John, I think you have nailed it, my

4185
02:29:59,700 --> 02:29:59,980
friend.

4186
02:30:00,300 --> 02:30:02,480
Oh, I'm absolutely convinced I nailed it.

4187
02:30:02,660 --> 02:30:05,360
But there could be someone with a tumor.

4188
02:30:05,700 --> 02:30:07,060
Ultrasound's good for that too.

4189
02:30:09,340 --> 02:30:10,740
They can weasel out.

4190
02:30:10,840 --> 02:30:12,900
But the way the woman in that particular

4191
02:30:12,900 --> 02:30:14,760
clip you played, the way that woman, the

4192
02:30:14,760 --> 02:30:16,320
female, was so gleeful.

4193
02:30:17,420 --> 02:30:18,760
They did the right thing.

4194
02:30:18,880 --> 02:30:20,520
They got her home to have her baby

4195
02:30:20,520 --> 02:30:21,960
is all she didn't say.

4196
02:30:22,320 --> 02:30:24,240
But she might as well have said it.

4197
02:30:24,720 --> 02:30:27,120
It seems to me just to confer the

4198
02:30:28,860 --> 02:30:32,860
or to confirm, not confer, but confirm the

4199
02:30:32,860 --> 02:30:33,840
speculation.

4200
02:30:34,120 --> 02:30:35,140
It's so good.

4201
02:30:35,680 --> 02:30:37,860
I just love it.

4202
02:30:38,680 --> 02:30:41,260
But why don't they just tell us?

4203
02:30:41,560 --> 02:30:44,120
That's because then we have this whole other,

4204
02:30:44,220 --> 02:30:45,280
you know, then it's a workspace.

4205
02:30:45,680 --> 02:30:46,920
Then you have the how do you fucking

4206
02:30:46,920 --> 02:30:47,940
space problem.

4207
02:30:49,160 --> 02:30:49,720
Okay.

4208
02:30:50,400 --> 02:30:52,300
Not a problem, but the questions.

4209
02:30:52,440 --> 02:30:53,520
Because we all want to know.

4210
02:30:53,880 --> 02:30:55,720
Then it becomes a topic of discussion that

4211
02:30:55,720 --> 02:30:57,260
nobody wants to have.

4212
02:30:57,600 --> 02:30:58,800
We all want to know.

4213
02:30:58,800 --> 02:31:00,400
Were they floating around at the time?

4214
02:31:02,220 --> 02:31:03,880
how do you do it?

4215
02:31:04,020 --> 02:31:07,900
You know, were they spinning maybe in the

4216
02:31:07,900 --> 02:31:08,900
void?

4217
02:31:09,080 --> 02:31:10,620
I mean, just too many.

4218
02:31:11,220 --> 02:31:12,700
It brings up too many.

4219
02:31:13,260 --> 02:31:14,960
They don't want it at a press conference.

4220
02:31:15,020 --> 02:31:17,220
They don't want Carolyn Levitt trying to explain

4221
02:31:17,220 --> 02:31:17,440
it.

4222
02:31:19,200 --> 02:31:21,000
Well, the way I understand it.

4223
02:31:21,620 --> 02:31:22,740
All right.

4224
02:31:22,780 --> 02:31:24,240
I've got one more for you.

4225
02:31:24,360 --> 02:31:27,100
This is one of my personal gripes.

4226
02:31:27,200 --> 02:31:28,600
And of course, people are sending me clips

4227
02:31:28,600 --> 02:31:29,280
now about it.

4228
02:31:30,040 --> 02:31:32,540
This is Olof Aeronautics Model A.

4229
02:31:32,880 --> 02:31:35,260
Part electric road car, part flying car.

4230
02:31:35,820 --> 02:31:38,300
It's currently in testing and closely watched by

4231
02:31:38,300 --> 02:31:41,060
the FAA under its airworthiness certificate.

4232
02:31:41,520 --> 02:31:43,980
Olof can land on any surface anywhere and

4233
02:31:43,980 --> 02:31:45,360
take off from any surface anywhere.

4234
02:31:46,000 --> 02:31:47,860
There does not need to be built any

4235
02:31:47,860 --> 02:31:50,520
kind of heliports, vertiparts or anything like that.

4236
02:31:50,780 --> 02:31:53,020
Olof co-founder Jim Duchovny says he has

4237
02:31:53,020 --> 02:31:56,260
3,500 pre-orders at 300,000 a

4238
02:31:56,260 --> 02:31:58,620
pop and production is underway.

4239
02:31:59,080 --> 02:32:01,500
But some experts say flying cars are not

4240
02:32:01,500 --> 02:32:04,380
ready for public roadways and skies due to

4241
02:32:04,380 --> 02:32:06,660
regulations and new product headwinds.

4242
02:32:07,400 --> 02:32:10,420
Currently, the FAA would require a pilot's license,

4243
02:32:10,700 --> 02:32:12,860
which is expensive and time consuming.

4244
02:32:13,540 --> 02:32:15,880
Flying cars need to be light but also

4245
02:32:15,880 --> 02:32:18,360
meet road worthiness testing standards.

4246
02:32:18,800 --> 02:32:23,360
Some believe there are better technologies, namely air

4247
02:32:23,360 --> 02:32:26,560
taxis, which are like smaller helicopters and they

4248
02:32:26,560 --> 02:32:29,060
cost roughly the same as the Olof Model

4249
02:32:29,060 --> 02:32:29,440
A.

4250
02:32:29,920 --> 02:32:33,540
Duchovny acknowledges air taxis are a competitor but

4251
02:32:33,540 --> 02:32:37,000
says his main rivals are leading EV companies.

4252
02:32:37,320 --> 02:32:41,040
We're trying to make exactly the same or

4253
02:32:41,040 --> 02:32:45,040
similar car as Tesla, Lucid and Rivian but

4254
02:32:45,040 --> 02:32:47,200
with the capability of vertically taking off and

4255
02:32:47,200 --> 02:32:47,460
flying.

4256
02:32:47,700 --> 02:32:50,340
NASA and the FAA are working on the

4257
02:32:50,340 --> 02:32:52,500
framework of advanced air mobility.

4258
02:32:52,920 --> 02:32:55,900
The concepts being evaluated include the creation of

4259
02:32:55,900 --> 02:32:59,600
corridors for air taxis, drones and commercial flights,

4260
02:33:00,060 --> 02:33:04,460
noise, travel times, infrastructure, future airspace and of

4261
02:33:04,460 --> 02:33:05,260
course safety.

4262
02:33:05,860 --> 02:33:08,620
Duchovny though is still bullish on his startup

4263
02:33:08,620 --> 02:33:09,160
company.

4264
02:33:09,580 --> 02:33:13,060
I do think we'll actually have a majority

4265
02:33:13,060 --> 02:33:17,100
of the cars with some kind of flying

4266
02:33:17,100 --> 02:33:17,820
capabilities.

4267
02:33:19,240 --> 02:33:21,840
I heard the number 33 in there.

4268
02:33:22,140 --> 02:33:22,520
Oh yeah.

4269
02:33:23,300 --> 02:33:25,200
So a couple things about this, because I've

4270
02:33:25,200 --> 02:33:26,800
been following this one very closely.

4271
02:33:27,340 --> 02:33:30,280
This is ALEF, A-L-E-F dot

4272
02:33:30,280 --> 02:33:31,880
A-R-O, A-E-R-O.

4273
02:33:32,020 --> 02:33:33,300
I would like you to take a look

4274
02:33:33,300 --> 02:33:35,060
at this because you'll recognize the car.

4275
02:33:35,580 --> 02:33:38,700
This is basically a go-kart with bicycle

4276
02:33:38,700 --> 02:33:40,620
wheels that they've put a...

4277
02:33:40,620 --> 02:33:42,740
Give me the spelling again.

4278
02:33:43,240 --> 02:33:45,840
A-L-E-F dot A-R-O,

4279
02:33:45,980 --> 02:33:46,880
A-E-R-O.

4280
02:33:47,760 --> 02:33:49,140
When you see it you'll go, oh yeah,

4281
02:33:49,200 --> 02:33:49,680
this thing.

4282
02:33:49,980 --> 02:33:53,020
And they have this constant video of this.

4283
02:33:53,620 --> 02:33:57,840
It's almost like a really rickety thing with

4284
02:33:57,840 --> 02:34:00,080
these bicycle tires and it lifts off and

4285
02:34:00,080 --> 02:34:04,200
it jumps over a Tesla cyber truck and

4286
02:34:04,200 --> 02:34:05,020
then lands.

4287
02:34:05,500 --> 02:34:08,400
This is the technology that they have.

4288
02:34:08,940 --> 02:34:10,800
So there's no person in it.

4289
02:34:11,520 --> 02:34:15,880
It's a fiberglass body around a very small

4290
02:34:15,880 --> 02:34:18,380
frame with these little teeny weeny tires.

4291
02:34:18,860 --> 02:34:19,740
I don't even know if you can get

4292
02:34:19,740 --> 02:34:21,480
over 40 miles an hour with it on

4293
02:34:21,480 --> 02:34:21,840
the road.

4294
02:34:21,900 --> 02:34:23,400
In fact, they never show it driving.

4295
02:34:23,860 --> 02:34:26,140
They only show it doing this little hop.

4296
02:34:27,120 --> 02:34:28,060
A couple things.

4297
02:34:29,060 --> 02:34:32,540
This company keeps touting that they have an

4298
02:34:32,540 --> 02:34:33,900
airworthiness certificate.

4299
02:34:34,600 --> 02:34:37,460
They are allowed to test at an airfield.

4300
02:34:38,640 --> 02:34:41,380
It's not like, oh, it's airworthy, you can

4301
02:34:41,380 --> 02:34:43,100
go and fly it wherever you want.

4302
02:34:43,260 --> 02:34:43,400
No.

4303
02:34:43,680 --> 02:34:45,220
It's a lie.

4304
02:34:45,980 --> 02:34:47,540
It looks like a turd.

4305
02:34:48,220 --> 02:34:49,440
Yes, it is a turd.

4306
02:34:49,760 --> 02:34:51,460
The other thing is, they always keep saying,

4307
02:34:51,780 --> 02:34:55,180
it got 3,500 people already pre-ordered.

4308
02:34:55,320 --> 02:34:56,760
If you look at the website, you can

4309
02:34:56,760 --> 02:34:57,660
order...

4310
02:34:57,660 --> 02:34:58,740
33 was the number.

4311
02:34:59,460 --> 02:35:00,680
You missed it.

4312
02:35:01,020 --> 02:35:02,520
3,300.

4313
02:35:02,520 --> 02:35:06,400
You can buy a place in line for

4314
02:35:06,400 --> 02:35:07,160
$150.

4315
02:35:08,360 --> 02:35:11,560
It's not like people put down $300,000.

4316
02:35:12,700 --> 02:35:17,120
This is a scam operation with a flying

4317
02:35:17,120 --> 02:35:19,780
turd that you can't even sit in.

4318
02:35:20,840 --> 02:35:23,820
They keep bringing this guy up.

4319
02:35:24,300 --> 02:35:25,600
I don't know why they keep calling it

4320
02:35:25,600 --> 02:35:26,600
the first flying car.

4321
02:35:26,680 --> 02:35:28,200
There's been so many of these things.

4322
02:35:28,320 --> 02:35:29,260
It's crazy.

4323
02:35:30,780 --> 02:35:34,800
Now, I am kind of bullish on this

4324
02:35:34,800 --> 02:35:37,400
new battery technology, which we talked about, the

4325
02:35:37,400 --> 02:35:38,080
Donut Lab.

4326
02:35:38,180 --> 02:35:38,920
I don't know if you had a chance

4327
02:35:38,920 --> 02:35:39,740
to look at it.

4328
02:35:40,360 --> 02:35:41,640
Yeah, I looked into it.

4329
02:35:42,020 --> 02:35:45,880
I did get one of our engineers who

4330
02:35:45,880 --> 02:35:46,680
has looked into it.

4331
02:35:46,760 --> 02:35:48,660
He says, I'll just read his note.

4332
02:35:49,280 --> 02:35:50,480
He says, I used to work in a

4333
02:35:50,480 --> 02:35:52,980
PC board factory in Santa Clara back in

4334
02:35:52,980 --> 02:35:53,700
82, 83.

4335
02:35:53,900 --> 02:35:55,860
I'm an Army radio maintenance technician.

4336
02:35:56,260 --> 02:35:58,780
Also worked for Sony building TV studios.

4337
02:35:59,160 --> 02:36:01,360
He says, the way this would work, and

4338
02:36:01,360 --> 02:36:03,460
the way he understands it, you use the

4339
02:36:03,460 --> 02:36:07,460
same techniques as making IC chips, placing billions

4340
02:36:07,460 --> 02:36:10,040
of tiny capacitors in a small space.

4341
02:36:10,420 --> 02:36:12,880
Due to their size and chemical properties, they

4342
02:36:12,880 --> 02:36:14,740
would act like a mix between a battery

4343
02:36:14,740 --> 02:36:16,880
and a super capacitor, which you mentioned.

4344
02:36:17,680 --> 02:36:19,600
They would be quite easy to produce and

4345
02:36:19,600 --> 02:36:21,240
would pack a lot of energy into a

4346
02:36:21,240 --> 02:36:22,000
small package.

4347
02:36:22,740 --> 02:36:24,580
What caught my eye was their test rig.

4348
02:36:24,700 --> 02:36:27,440
In my mind, the whole battery would melt,

4349
02:36:27,560 --> 02:36:30,000
including the cables and connectors, if that much

4350
02:36:30,000 --> 02:36:31,400
amperage was fed in.

4351
02:36:31,740 --> 02:36:34,020
There's always resistance that turns into heat.

4352
02:36:34,740 --> 02:36:37,180
The BYD engineer, it's all from his website,

4353
02:36:37,600 --> 02:36:40,020
said you cannot have all those properties in

4354
02:36:40,020 --> 02:36:41,420
the battery at the same time.

4355
02:36:41,460 --> 02:36:43,340
You always have to drop out on one

4356
02:36:43,340 --> 02:36:43,620
of them.

4357
02:36:43,700 --> 02:36:44,380
It's physics.

4358
02:36:44,960 --> 02:36:46,580
For me, it's the heat, but with a

4359
02:36:46,580 --> 02:36:49,940
clever battery management system, it might work.

4360
02:36:50,260 --> 02:36:53,260
Think of the PCM style LED drivers.

4361
02:36:53,260 --> 02:36:56,020
I wonder what JCD has to say about

4362
02:36:56,020 --> 02:36:56,400
this.

4363
02:36:57,700 --> 02:37:01,460
There's no capacitance of any sort, because they

4364
02:37:01,460 --> 02:37:03,180
make a point of saying it's a battery,

4365
02:37:03,300 --> 02:37:06,380
not a hybrid capacitor battery or anything like

4366
02:37:06,380 --> 02:37:07,620
that, so that's bull crap.

4367
02:37:09,100 --> 02:37:11,360
It turns out that there's a company out

4368
02:37:11,360 --> 02:37:14,480
of Finland called Nordic Nano.

4369
02:37:15,260 --> 02:37:18,240
They developed a technology, which they sold to

4370
02:37:18,240 --> 02:37:20,780
these guys, which is a battery technology that

4371
02:37:20,780 --> 02:37:25,160
uses a lot of very high end graphene

4372
02:37:25,160 --> 02:37:30,600
and nanotubes and all sorts of titanium oxide

4373
02:37:31,540 --> 02:37:35,480
to coat the nanotubes, and it does apparently

4374
02:37:35,480 --> 02:37:39,720
can produce all these numbers and may or

4375
02:37:39,720 --> 02:37:41,160
may not be manufacturable.

4376
02:37:41,400 --> 02:37:44,460
I think the manufacturability is the issue here,

4377
02:37:44,740 --> 02:37:48,760
but there's some possibility that all this is

4378
02:37:48,760 --> 02:37:49,100
true.

4379
02:37:50,020 --> 02:37:52,120
I think, as I read an interview with

4380
02:37:52,120 --> 02:37:55,160
the Fin guy as well, and they basically

4381
02:37:55,160 --> 02:37:57,020
said, the one thing the Finns don't do

4382
02:37:57,020 --> 02:37:57,640
is lie.

4383
02:37:59,600 --> 02:38:00,560
They don't.

4384
02:38:00,880 --> 02:38:01,760
They drink a lot.

4385
02:38:05,400 --> 02:38:16,420
Yes, we

4386
02:38:16,420 --> 02:38:17,700
do have a few more people to thank

4387
02:38:17,700 --> 02:38:18,640
for the show.

4388
02:38:20,660 --> 02:38:22,140
1837, I believe is the number.

4389
02:38:23,300 --> 02:38:25,860
Adam will read the $50 and up right

4390
02:38:25,860 --> 02:38:26,760
to the max.

4391
02:38:26,980 --> 02:38:28,640
Not that many of them, and we'll go

4392
02:38:28,640 --> 02:38:29,000
from there.

4393
02:38:29,180 --> 02:38:30,080
Terry Wentz.

4394
02:38:30,160 --> 02:38:30,800
Thank you, Terry.

4395
02:38:31,100 --> 02:38:33,320
$130 from Langley, Washington.

4396
02:38:33,860 --> 02:38:37,580
William Durkin, Greenville, South Carolina, with 123.45.

4397
02:38:37,860 --> 02:38:39,140
We love it when you do stuff like

4398
02:38:39,140 --> 02:38:39,340
that.

4399
02:38:39,400 --> 02:38:40,140
Dakota Walker.

4400
02:38:42,280 --> 02:38:45,500
$119.93. And that is a belated birthday

4401
02:38:45,500 --> 02:38:47,880
donation, so we'll have that on the list.

4402
02:38:48,200 --> 02:38:53,980
Hey, coming in from Japan, Mayumi Akiyama with

4403
02:38:53,980 --> 02:38:56,160
kanji characters, so I can't tell where.

4404
02:38:56,640 --> 02:38:57,660
I don't know where that is.

4405
02:38:57,860 --> 02:38:58,480
I mean, come on.

4406
02:38:59,640 --> 02:39:01,200
Hold on, maybe...

4407
02:39:01,200 --> 02:39:02,520
Come on, Jay.

4408
02:39:02,900 --> 02:39:04,460
I mean, you could have at least...

4409
02:39:04,460 --> 02:39:07,060
Jay should be able to translate that.

4410
02:39:07,180 --> 02:39:08,820
I mean, look, here's what I'm going to

4411
02:39:08,820 --> 02:39:09,040
do.

4412
02:39:09,120 --> 02:39:11,480
I'm going to literally copy and paste that.

4413
02:39:12,940 --> 02:39:13,740
Hold on.

4414
02:39:13,940 --> 02:39:15,620
I'm going to copy and paste that into

4415
02:39:15,620 --> 02:39:16,480
my robot.

4416
02:39:16,820 --> 02:39:18,740
We just call it Robots here, the No

4417
02:39:18,740 --> 02:39:19,460
Agenda show.

4418
02:39:20,080 --> 02:39:22,520
So copy, paste that.

4419
02:39:22,760 --> 02:39:23,040
Okay.

4420
02:39:23,280 --> 02:39:26,200
Copy and paste the other one.

4421
02:39:26,680 --> 02:39:29,600
Because the kanji comes through fine, which is...

4422
02:39:29,600 --> 02:39:32,320
Okay, so robot translate.

4423
02:39:33,260 --> 02:39:35,680
While it's doing that, I will continue reading.

4424
02:39:35,820 --> 02:39:37,100
Wait, wait, it took that long?

4425
02:39:37,160 --> 02:39:38,320
Is it already taking time?

4426
02:39:38,940 --> 02:39:39,300
Oh, yeah.

4427
02:39:39,300 --> 02:39:40,480
It's burning cycles.

4428
02:39:40,720 --> 02:39:41,500
I'm getting tense.

4429
02:39:41,660 --> 02:39:42,140
Oh, here it is.

4430
02:39:45,900 --> 02:39:47,300
Tatori-shi city.

4431
02:39:48,000 --> 02:39:48,980
Tatori city.

4432
02:39:50,340 --> 02:39:52,080
In Tatori prefecture.

4433
02:39:53,020 --> 02:39:57,040
Which is in the Shugoku region of Honshu.

4434
02:39:57,800 --> 02:39:58,280
It's the coast.

4435
02:39:58,580 --> 02:39:59,360
Oh, Honshu province.

4436
02:39:59,540 --> 02:40:01,600
It's the coast of the sea of Japan,

4437
02:40:01,780 --> 02:40:04,060
which is, as we know, a protectorate of

4438
02:40:04,060 --> 02:40:05,380
Sir Mark and Dame Astrid.

4439
02:40:05,780 --> 02:40:06,740
Thank you, Mayumi.

4440
02:40:08,580 --> 02:40:09,660

02:40:11,740 --> 02:40:12,920
Estero, Florida.

4442
02:40:13,480 --> 02:40:13,880
$100.

4443
02:40:14,240 --> 02:40:16,180
Oh, by the way, Mayumi is also $100.

4444
02:40:16,740 --> 02:40:18,220
Great show, says McDermott.

4445
02:40:18,300 --> 02:40:19,000
Keep up the good work.

4446
02:40:19,760 --> 02:40:23,100
Kenneth Sear, Sire, Shady Shores, Texas.

4447
02:40:23,200 --> 02:40:23,540
$99.

4448
02:40:24,180 --> 02:40:27,200
Adrian Grabe, Austin, Texas, which we can't drive

4449
02:40:27,200 --> 02:40:29,300
to right now because we've been told it's

4450
02:40:29,300 --> 02:40:30,520
dangerous on 290.

4451
02:40:30,640 --> 02:40:31,380
$88, $88.

4452
02:40:31,940 --> 02:40:34,420
And there's Sir Kevin McLaughlin, the Archiduna of

4453
02:40:34,420 --> 02:40:34,700
Luke.

4454
02:40:34,700 --> 02:40:36,280
Of Luna.

4455
02:40:37,100 --> 02:40:38,180
Of Luna.

4456
02:40:38,680 --> 02:40:40,180
He is the lover of America and boobs

4457
02:40:40,180 --> 02:40:41,520
in Concord, North Carolina.

4458
02:40:41,920 --> 02:40:43,600
And he says, donation for boobs.

4459
02:40:43,820 --> 02:40:45,320
God bless America and boobs.

4460
02:40:45,940 --> 02:40:47,700
Sir Deep Thought, Lexington, Minnesota.

4461
02:40:47,960 --> 02:40:49,080
Also a boob donation.

4462
02:40:49,280 --> 02:40:52,200
$0.8008. Boobs for my birthday.

4463
02:40:52,380 --> 02:40:54,560
Started my 46th trip around the sun on

4464
02:40:54,560 --> 02:40:55,920
show day, January 25th.

4465
02:40:55,920 --> 02:40:58,180
Yes, Jason Shepard, Trinidad, Colorado.

That's in Queensland, Australia.

4470
02:41:09,500 --> 02:41:11,040
Admitted to the birthday list for my birthday

4471
02:41:11,040 --> 02:41:12,200
on January 26th.

4472
02:41:12,260 --> 02:41:14,120
I've been notating and listening since 2011.

4473
02:41:14,320 --> 02:41:15,080
Keep up the great work.

$51.50. Nelson NAF.

4481
02:41:38,500 --> 02:41:39,520

Odivelas, Portugal.

4483
02:41:42,020 --> 02:41:44,560

These are cool names.

4494
02:42:04,140 --> 02:42:07,280
We got the Grossenbacher and the Schwarzenbacher.

4495
02:42:07,760 --> 02:42:08,940
Simpsonville, South Carolina.

4496
02:42:09,080 --> 02:42:10,060
First time donating.

4497
02:42:12,260 --> 02:42:13,920
You've been de-douched.

4498
02:42:14,060 --> 02:42:15,860
Waiting for the ice storm to arrive.

4499
02:42:16,060 --> 02:42:16,580
Stay safe.

4500
02:42:16,840 --> 02:42:18,840

$50.

4504
02:42:24,600 --> 02:42:26,520
We thank these producers and of course our

4505
02:42:26,520 --> 02:42:28,860
executive and associate executive producers that we mentioned

4506
02:42:28,860 --> 02:42:29,300
earlier.

4507
02:42:29,940 --> 02:42:31,960
And they all get their titles.

4508
02:42:32,440 --> 02:42:34,140
And not under $50.

4509
02:42:34,300 --> 02:42:37,360
We did not mention them because that is

4510
02:42:37,360 --> 02:42:38,760
for reasons of anonymity.

4511
02:42:38,940 --> 02:42:42,840
Please go to knowagendadonations.com and make a

4512
02:42:42,840 --> 02:42:43,180
donation.

4513
02:42:43,340 --> 02:42:44,020
Support the show.

4514
02:42:44,160 --> 02:42:45,040
It's value for value.

4515
02:42:45,160 --> 02:42:47,840
Any amount, any frequency for the recurring donations.

4516
02:42:47,960 --> 02:42:48,960
We appreciate it all.

4517
02:42:49,240 --> 02:42:51,480
Thank you for supporting the best podcast in

4518
02:42:51,480 --> 02:42:51,980
the universe.

4519
02:42:58,520 --> 02:42:59,040
Okay.

4520
02:42:59,380 --> 02:43:00,580
We have a long list today.

4521
02:43:00,720 --> 02:43:02,700
Dakota Walker celebrated on the 13th.

4522
02:43:02,740 --> 02:43:04,780

4524
02:43:08,120 --> 02:43:10,380

His sister Beth White, she celebrated on the

4526
02:43:13,180 --> 02:43:14,080

4527
02:43:14,140 --> 02:43:16,520
His nephew Patrick White, also on the 24th.

4528
02:43:17,020 --> 02:43:17,680
And what do you know?

4529
02:43:17,780 --> 02:43:19,900
Bill himself celebrated on the 24th.

4530
02:43:20,940 --> 02:43:24,000
Nelson Knapp turned 51 yesterday as well.

4531
02:43:24,320 --> 02:43:26,460
Sir Deep Thought turns 46 today.

4532
02:43:26,660 --> 02:43:32,140
Mom and Dad wish Jacqueline Wednesday Myers.

4533
02:43:32,300 --> 02:43:32,760
There we go.

4534
02:43:33,300 --> 02:43:34,980
She'll be turning 2 years old today.

4535
02:43:35,140 --> 02:43:37,260
Happy birthday from your Uncle Adam and Uncle

4536
02:43:37,260 --> 02:43:37,580
John.

4537
02:43:37,700 --> 02:43:40,860
Jason, happy birthday to Brittany Miller celebrating their

4538
02:43:40,860 --> 02:43:43,620
7th anniversary of her 39th birthday today.

4539
02:43:44,040 --> 02:43:47,360
And finally, Sir Wayne Larkholm celebrates his birthday

4540
02:43:47,360 --> 02:43:49,260
tomorrow on January 26th.

4541
02:43:49,420 --> 02:43:51,260
Happy birthday from everybody here at the Best

4542
02:43:51,260 --> 02:43:52,880
Podcast in the Universe!

4543
02:43:52,880 --> 02:43:54,860
It's your birthday, yeah!

4544
02:43:55,200 --> 02:43:58,220
We have no title changes, nights, dames, nothing

4545
02:43:58,220 --> 02:43:58,600
at all.

4546
02:43:58,700 --> 02:44:00,600
By the way, that birthday list is very

4547
02:44:00,600 --> 02:44:02,300
long which means a lot of people have

4548
02:44:02,300 --> 02:44:06,080
sex in mid-April In space.

4549
02:44:07,140 --> 02:44:09,120
Well, in space, if they can.

4550
02:44:09,820 --> 02:44:13,940
In mid-April which is around Easter, and

4551
02:44:13,940 --> 02:44:17,600
I guess it's interesting that there's so many.

4552
02:44:17,720 --> 02:44:20,040
I mean, today's a record breaker, 10 people.

4553
02:44:20,180 --> 02:44:21,980
I always try to have sex at least

4554
02:44:21,980 --> 02:44:23,280
in April as well.

4555
02:44:24,780 --> 02:44:25,880
It's a low T.

4556
02:44:26,660 --> 02:44:28,900
I don't know anybody named April so I

4557
02:44:28,900 --> 02:44:29,680
can't do that.

4558
02:44:30,740 --> 02:44:34,020
No Agenda Meetups!

4559
02:44:38,100 --> 02:44:40,320
It's always like a party, the No Agenda

4560
02:44:40,320 --> 02:44:42,580
Meetups, and of course the meetups take place

4561
02:44:43,420 --> 02:44:43,900
worldwide.

4562
02:44:44,680 --> 02:44:46,320
You definitely want to go to at least

4563
02:44:46,320 --> 02:44:48,040
one of these in your lifetime, I guarantee

4564
02:44:48,040 --> 02:44:48,340
you.

4565
02:44:48,340 --> 02:44:50,580
Once you've gone to one, you will want

4566
02:44:50,580 --> 02:44:52,460
to go to more, probably with the same

4567
02:44:52,460 --> 02:44:52,780
group.

4568
02:44:53,380 --> 02:44:54,740
We do have a cancellation.

4569
02:44:55,380 --> 02:44:57,660
Sunday was supposed to be the Indie NA

4570
02:44:57,660 --> 02:44:59,760
Shill Shiny New Year Meetup at 3 o

4571
02:44:59,760 --> 02:44:59,980
'clock.

4572
02:45:02,660 --> 02:45:03,680
Is that today?

4573
02:45:03,800 --> 02:45:04,040
Yes.

4574
02:45:04,600 --> 02:45:06,340
That has been cancelled due to weather.

4575
02:45:06,540 --> 02:45:07,620
Obviously Indie.

4576
02:45:07,980 --> 02:45:09,840
That would have meant the Blind Owl Brewery.

4577
02:45:09,980 --> 02:45:14,800
They hope to reorganize it for Thursday.

4578
02:45:15,340 --> 02:45:18,500
So keep checking noagendameetups.com to find out

4579
02:45:18,500 --> 02:45:19,680
if that happens or not.

4580
02:45:20,160 --> 02:45:22,700
On Thursday itself, the North Georgia quarterly meetup

4581
02:45:22,700 --> 02:45:24,480
takes place at 6 o'clock at Cherry

4582
02:45:24,480 --> 02:45:26,100
Street Brewing in Alpharetta, Georgia.

4583
02:45:26,800 --> 02:45:28,380
And Sir Bob will be organizing that.

4584
02:45:28,620 --> 02:45:31,080
And we did have that Sao Paulo, Brazil

4585
02:45:31,080 --> 02:45:33,560
meetup and we got a meetup report.

4586
02:45:33,880 --> 02:45:36,320
In the morning, Adam and John, Augusto de

4587
02:45:36,320 --> 02:45:38,580
Britalian, based in Berlin, now here in Sao

4588
02:45:38,580 --> 02:45:39,400
Paulo, my hometown.

4589
02:45:39,980 --> 02:45:43,280
And I met this gentleman, American gentleman, living

4590
02:45:43,280 --> 02:45:44,140
here in Sao Paulo.

4591
02:45:44,140 --> 02:45:46,280
I'm assuming his gender.

4592
02:45:46,840 --> 02:45:47,220
It's a he.

4593
02:45:47,700 --> 02:45:51,400
And we had interesting open conversations about many

4594
02:45:51,400 --> 02:45:51,800
topics.

4595
02:45:52,340 --> 02:45:54,940
And now about the pronunciation of two special

4596
02:45:54,940 --> 02:45:56,080
words in Portuguese.

4597
02:45:56,360 --> 02:45:57,920
One is Cachaca.

4598
02:45:58,260 --> 02:46:00,160
And the other one is the state.

4599
02:46:00,380 --> 02:46:01,320
It's Bahia.

4600
02:46:02,040 --> 02:46:04,500
And that's it, gentlemen.

4601
02:46:04,900 --> 02:46:07,600
Thank you for your courage and for more

4602
02:46:07,600 --> 02:46:08,040
years.

4603
02:46:08,340 --> 02:46:10,500
Sounds like it was a small meetup, but

4604
02:46:10,500 --> 02:46:12,040
two people makes a meetup.

4605
02:46:12,040 --> 02:46:14,020
And we love getting those meetup reports.

4606
02:46:14,180 --> 02:46:16,340
So we're expecting some from the following meetups

4607
02:46:16,340 --> 02:46:18,420
which will take place on the 31st.

4608
02:46:18,840 --> 02:46:21,820
Oakland, California and Wilmington, California, two in Cali.

4609
02:46:21,920 --> 02:46:23,960
Then in February, Keyport, New Jersey on the

4610
02:46:23,960 --> 02:46:24,260

02:46:24,460 --> 02:46:26,180

And Coleyville, Texas on February 21st.

4617
02:46:37,860 --> 02:46:39,140
I'm sure more will pop up.

4618
02:46:39,140 --> 02:46:41,020
Go to noagentomeetups.com.

4619
02:46:41,100 --> 02:46:42,740
You can find all of the meetups that

4620
02:46:42,740 --> 02:46:43,080
are listed.

4621
02:46:43,200 --> 02:46:44,540
We go all the way through May right

4622
02:46:44,540 --> 02:46:44,820
now.

4623
02:46:44,980 --> 02:46:46,680
And if you can't find one near you,

4624
02:46:46,760 --> 02:46:47,420
here's an idea.

4625
02:46:47,540 --> 02:46:48,400
Start one yourself.

4626
02:46:48,560 --> 02:46:49,260
People will come.

4627
02:46:49,360 --> 02:46:50,000
We'll announce it.

4628
02:46:50,120 --> 02:46:51,580
Send us a meetup report.

4629
02:46:51,700 --> 02:46:53,180
It's a lot of fun for the family

4630
02:46:53,180 --> 02:46:54,020
and for the kids.

4631
02:46:54,840 --> 02:46:55,640
Noagentomeetups.com.

4632
02:46:55,700 --> 02:46:57,080
Always fun, always a party.

4633
02:47:09,260 --> 02:47:13,140
You wanna be where everybody feels the same.

4634
02:47:14,940 --> 02:47:16,440
It's like a party.

4635
02:47:17,280 --> 02:47:18,120
That's right, everybody.

4636
02:47:18,600 --> 02:47:19,240
It's a party.

4637
02:47:19,560 --> 02:47:21,280
We've got John's tip of the day coming

4638
02:47:21,280 --> 02:47:21,500
up.

4639
02:47:21,540 --> 02:47:23,520
I'm a little bit bummed because Tina wasn't

4640
02:47:23,520 --> 02:47:25,120
able to go to Costco to get your

4641
02:47:25,120 --> 02:47:28,380
last tip of the day, which sounded like

4642
02:47:28,380 --> 02:47:30,860
a good El Cheapo wine right up my

4643
02:47:30,860 --> 02:47:31,160
alley.

4644
02:47:31,580 --> 02:47:32,840
It was really good, actually.

4645
02:47:33,020 --> 02:47:33,940
I'm sure it is.

4646
02:47:34,020 --> 02:47:36,540
Now, before we do anything, though, we have

4647
02:47:36,540 --> 02:47:38,720
to choose our end of show ISO, which

4648
02:47:38,720 --> 02:47:41,120
we do in this segment of the show.

4649
02:47:41,240 --> 02:47:43,580
I think I've come with some good ones

4650
02:47:43,580 --> 02:47:44,600
for today.

4651
02:47:44,840 --> 02:47:46,500
Here we go.

4652
02:47:46,840 --> 02:47:49,120
For four more years and possibly far beyond.

4653
02:47:50,560 --> 02:47:51,320
That's Heather.

4654
02:47:51,900 --> 02:47:53,460
That's done by your voice.

4655
02:47:53,740 --> 02:47:54,560
That's Heather.

4656
02:47:55,560 --> 02:47:58,720
That's Heather from the Dark Horse podcast.

4657
02:48:00,160 --> 02:48:01,260
You know Heather.

4658
02:48:01,740 --> 02:48:04,100
For four more years and possibly far beyond.

4659
02:48:04,100 --> 02:48:04,760
Okay.

4660
02:48:06,080 --> 02:48:07,220
Here's another one.

4661
02:48:07,420 --> 02:48:09,180
This isn't easy to do.

4662
02:48:09,780 --> 02:48:10,220
Okay.

4663
02:48:10,620 --> 02:48:12,600
I think that's also a candidate.

4664
02:48:12,840 --> 02:48:14,540
And this one, this may just take the

4665
02:48:14,540 --> 02:48:14,820
cake.

4666
02:48:14,960 --> 02:48:17,660
They'll never be able to replace these guys

4667
02:48:17,660 --> 02:48:18,700
with AI.

4668
02:48:21,900 --> 02:48:24,660
Okay, I'm going to go into an abeyance

4669
02:48:24,660 --> 02:48:26,140
mode and push mine off.

4670
02:48:26,400 --> 02:48:26,720
Really?

4671
02:48:26,720 --> 02:48:27,880
And give you that last one.

4672
02:48:28,060 --> 02:48:28,640
Really?

4673
02:48:29,260 --> 02:48:29,680
Wow.

4674
02:48:29,700 --> 02:48:32,580
They'll never be able to replace these guys

4675
02:48:32,580 --> 02:48:33,800
with AI.

4676
02:48:33,800 --> 02:48:34,880
There it is.

4677
02:48:34,880 --> 02:48:37,100
And before we even get to it, it's

4678
02:48:37,100 --> 02:48:38,780
time for John's tip of the day.

4679
02:48:39,720 --> 02:48:42,180
Great advice for you and me.

4680
02:48:42,500 --> 02:48:45,040
Just a tip with JCD.

4681
02:48:45,820 --> 02:48:47,360
And sometimes Adam.

4682
02:48:49,200 --> 02:48:51,640
And yeah, after doing all these expensive, even

4683
02:48:51,640 --> 02:48:53,100
though I did that, I tried to back

4684
02:48:53,100 --> 02:48:54,460
it off with the cheap wine.

4685
02:48:54,600 --> 02:48:58,300
That's a amazingly good product.

4686
02:48:58,540 --> 02:48:59,440
I should get some more.

4687
02:49:00,800 --> 02:49:03,620
Wine, some other inexpensive items, free things.

4688
02:49:03,780 --> 02:49:04,880
I had to go, I'm trying to go

4689
02:49:04,880 --> 02:49:08,320
down scale after being condemned for the $1

4690
02:49:08,320 --> 02:49:09,560
,000 television set.

4691
02:49:10,060 --> 02:49:12,060
We'll never live that one down, will we?

4692
02:49:12,840 --> 02:49:15,140
Well, you know, it's still a great product.

4693
02:49:15,240 --> 02:49:15,480
It is.

4694
02:49:15,480 --> 02:49:16,300
What am I going to say?

4695
02:49:16,480 --> 02:49:16,880
It is.

4696
02:49:17,440 --> 02:49:19,040
And people have to buy TV sets, so

4697
02:49:19,040 --> 02:49:19,440
there you go.

4698
02:49:20,080 --> 02:49:21,500
So let's go down to something that costs

4699
02:49:21,500 --> 02:49:22,280
a couple of bucks.

4700
02:49:24,490 --> 02:49:26,090
And this is one of, we have a

4701
02:49:26,090 --> 02:49:27,830
number of people out there that help me

4702
02:49:27,830 --> 02:49:29,510
with these tips and they suggest things.

4703
02:49:29,550 --> 02:49:30,950
They suggested this, and this is actually a

4704
02:49:30,950 --> 02:49:33,610
pretty good little guy, a little product.

4705
02:49:33,970 --> 02:49:36,610
This is the, people should all have one

4706
02:49:36,610 --> 02:49:39,990
of these sticks, or even a three-pack

4707
02:49:39,990 --> 02:49:45,130
of these Tide Oxy stain sticks.

4708
02:49:45,330 --> 02:49:48,490
They're called Tide Stain Remover for Clothes Go

4709
02:49:48,490 --> 02:49:49,250
-To Pen.

4710
02:49:49,470 --> 02:49:49,970
We have it.

4711
02:49:50,030 --> 02:49:52,610
Instant Spot Remover for Clothes Travel in Pocket

4712
02:49:52,610 --> 02:49:52,990
Size.

4713
02:49:53,330 --> 02:49:53,750
We have it.

4714
02:49:54,730 --> 02:49:58,750
$2.34 from Amazon and elsewhere.

4715
02:49:58,750 --> 02:50:01,570
I concur with this tip because I'm known

4716
02:50:01,570 --> 02:50:02,950
around here as Mr. Spot.

4717
02:50:03,770 --> 02:50:05,090
Oh, Mr. Spot.

4718
02:50:05,330 --> 02:50:08,230
Yes, I am always getting food on my

4719
02:50:08,230 --> 02:50:08,790
clothes.

4720
02:50:10,450 --> 02:50:11,750
I'm the guy that, you know, oh, I

4721
02:50:11,750 --> 02:50:12,370
made this spaghetti.

4722
02:50:12,530 --> 02:50:13,570
Oh, man.

4723
02:50:13,870 --> 02:50:14,150
What?

4724
02:50:14,810 --> 02:50:20,010
So, yes, Tina has these in massive quantities

4725
02:50:20,710 --> 02:50:22,910
and they are quite good at removing spots.

4726
02:50:25,280 --> 02:50:29,880
So this is the Tide Stain Remover for

4727
02:50:29,880 --> 02:50:30,680
Pen.

4728
02:50:30,940 --> 02:50:34,160
Are these available in Europe, Australia, and other

4729
02:50:34,160 --> 02:50:35,280
places around the world?

4730
02:50:35,660 --> 02:50:37,480
I think they're available most places.

4731
02:50:37,680 --> 02:50:38,840
It's a very hot product.

4732
02:50:39,320 --> 02:50:40,740
Tide has done a pretty good job.

4733
02:50:40,780 --> 02:50:41,880
It's a hot product, everybody.

4734
02:50:42,820 --> 02:50:45,940
You know, I got a, I had a

4735
02:50:45,940 --> 02:50:48,640
meeting long ago, I think it's with Procter

4736
02:50:48,640 --> 02:50:52,340
& Gamble, whoever owns Tide, it's either Procter

4737
02:50:52,340 --> 02:50:54,880
& Gamble or the other guys, and I

4738
02:50:54,880 --> 02:50:57,540
got a long lecture about, I'll just mention

4739
02:50:57,540 --> 02:51:01,660
it, a long lecture about detergents and toothpastes

4740
02:51:01,660 --> 02:51:03,260
and all the rest of it from these

4741
02:51:03,260 --> 02:51:05,100
guys, you know, the company men.

4742
02:51:05,820 --> 02:51:07,440
And they went on and on about how

4743
02:51:07,440 --> 02:51:09,580
the reason that you should only buy liquid

4744
02:51:09,580 --> 02:51:12,700
detergent is because they made all the good

4745
02:51:14,340 --> 02:51:16,680
powder detergent illegal because you had to have

4746
02:51:16,680 --> 02:51:18,680
a certain phosphorus content in there to make

4747
02:51:18,680 --> 02:51:19,400
it work well.

4748
02:51:19,800 --> 02:51:22,800
And if you buy Mexican detergent, you can

4749
02:51:22,800 --> 02:51:26,160
get the good old-fashioned powdered detergent, but

4750
02:51:26,160 --> 02:51:29,720
otherwise you can only get any cleaning power.

4751
02:51:29,820 --> 02:51:30,820
It has to be liquid.

4752
02:51:31,620 --> 02:51:34,880
And I've always made note of that little

4753
02:51:34,880 --> 02:51:37,220
tidbit, and some other stuff they told me.

4754
02:51:37,900 --> 02:51:39,480
It's a hot product, everybody.

4755
02:51:39,940 --> 02:51:41,040
Hot product, hot!

4756
02:51:42,360 --> 02:51:44,320
It's probably owned by BlackRock.

4757
02:51:44,680 --> 02:51:46,080
That's John's tip of the day!

4758
02:51:55,700 --> 02:51:56,840
Created by Dana Burnetti.

4759
02:51:57,280 --> 02:51:58,640
Alright, that will do it.

4760

noagendafund.com tipoftheday.net.

4761
02:52:02,640 --> 02:52:03,320
End of show mixes.

4762
02:52:03,740 --> 02:52:06,820
We've got some slop.

4763
02:52:07,100 --> 02:52:08,100
We got MVP.

4764
02:52:08,940 --> 02:52:10,380
Can I make a comment on the end

4765
02:52:10,380 --> 02:52:10,960
of show mixes?

4766
02:52:11,100 --> 02:52:11,300
Yeah.

4767
02:52:11,920 --> 02:52:14,380
Because I've been moaning about this one voice

4768
02:52:14,380 --> 02:52:15,940
that I keep hearing that does the Broadway

4769
02:52:15,940 --> 02:52:18,420
tunes, and I realize who it was.

4770
02:52:18,500 --> 02:52:18,880
Who is it?

4771
02:52:18,900 --> 02:52:20,000
Who they're stealing from.

4772
02:52:20,660 --> 02:52:22,660
It's a voice that is kind of, the

4773
02:52:22,660 --> 02:52:24,320
way I describe it is it's kind of

4774
02:52:24,960 --> 02:52:28,440
thin, but it's pleasant, and always on tune,

4775
02:52:28,620 --> 02:52:31,240
it's always keyed up properly, and there's nothing

4776
02:52:31,240 --> 02:52:31,680
wrong with it.

4777
02:52:31,920 --> 02:52:34,820
It's Steve Lawrence, of Steve Lawrence and Edie

4778
02:52:34,820 --> 02:52:38,120
Gourmet, mixed in with a little Mel Tormé.

4779
02:52:38,760 --> 02:52:41,040
And that's coming right up, along with Dee's

4780
02:52:41,040 --> 02:52:45,540
Laughs, and a banger, a slap and slop

4781
02:52:45,540 --> 02:52:46,840
end of show mix.

4782
02:52:46,940 --> 02:52:51,260
Also from MVP, getmojams.com After the show,

4783
02:52:51,400 --> 02:52:53,480
live on the screen, we've got Upbeat 66,

4784
02:52:53,780 --> 02:52:57,360
Salty Cray, I'm bringing you the pod, I

4785
02:52:57,360 --> 02:52:59,360
mean, the Value for Value music show, there

4786
02:52:59,360 --> 02:52:59,680
you go.

4787
02:53:00,720 --> 02:53:03,420
And we're coming to you here from Fredericksburg,

4788
02:53:03,540 --> 02:53:05,160
Texas, heart of the Texas Hill Country.

4789
02:53:05,340 --> 02:53:06,900
In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.

4790
02:53:07,360 --> 02:53:10,120
And from northern Silicon Valley, where we ain't

4791
02:53:10,120 --> 02:53:11,920
got no frost, I'm John C.

4792
02:53:12,000 --> 02:53:12,320
Dvorak.

4793
02:53:12,440 --> 02:53:13,660
We'll be back on Thursday.

4794
02:53:13,980 --> 02:53:16,200
Remember us, noagendadonations.com.

4795
02:53:16,240 --> 02:53:20,280
Until then, adios, mofos, a hooey hooey, and

4796
02:53:20,280 --> 02:53:20,860
such.

4797
02:53:49,420 --> 02:53:51,840
...talking about MAGA with a wink and a

4798
02:53:51,840 --> 02:53:55,000
flare, and the Clintons laughed at his wedding

4799
02:53:55,000 --> 02:53:55,460
feast.

4800
02:53:55,740 --> 02:53:58,180
He was toast of the town, to say

4801
02:53:58,180 --> 02:53:58,780
the least.

4802
02:53:58,880 --> 02:54:02,660
Though it's a flip-flop phenomenon, can't you

4803
02:54:02,660 --> 02:54:02,900
see?

4804
02:54:03,020 --> 02:54:06,340
From a Democrat darling to the GOP, one

4805
02:54:06,340 --> 02:54:09,220
day you're posing for the paparazzi lens, the

4806
02:54:09,220 --> 02:54:11,980
next day you're losing all your Hollywood friends.

4807
02:54:12,400 --> 02:54:14,680
The ink on the check was a shade

4808
02:54:14,680 --> 02:54:17,400
of blue, but the tie turned red and

4809
02:54:17,400 --> 02:54:18,620
the bridge burned too.

4810
02:54:18,760 --> 02:54:21,120
Yeah, it's a flip-flop phenomenon.

4811
02:54:22,520 --> 02:54:22,620
...

4812
02:54:23,980 --> 02:54:24,540
...

4813
02:54:25,120 --> 02:54:27,860
The cameras are still rolling, but the audience

4814
02:54:27,860 --> 02:54:28,820
has changed.

4815
02:54:29,000 --> 02:54:31,260
Same man in the spotlight, but the seating's

4816
02:54:31,260 --> 02:54:32,160
rearranged.

4817
02:54:32,320 --> 02:54:35,600
Trump is the president, and they all are

4818
02:54:35,600 --> 02:54:36,820
deranged.

4819
02:54:38,540 --> 02:54:38,880
...

4820
02:54:38,880 --> 02:54:39,540
...

4821
02:54:41,640 --> 02:54:42,200
...

4822
02:54:42,200 --> 02:54:42,800
...

4823
02:54:46,110 --> 02:54:47,740
...

4824
02:54:47,740 --> 02:54:50,200
...

4825
02:54:51,160 --> 02:54:51,460
...

4826
02:54:51,460 --> 02:54:51,560
...

4827
02:54:51,560 --> 02:54:53,220
...

4828
02:54:53,220 --> 02:54:55,940
...

4829
02:54:59,880 --> 02:55:01,510
...

4830
02:55:03,140 --> 02:55:04,680
...

4831
02:55:04,680 --> 02:55:05,120
...

4832
02:55:05,120 --> 02:55:08,840
Inappropriate hugging scares me away What's going on

4833
02:55:08,840 --> 02:55:09,920
with all these lies?

4834
02:55:10,160 --> 02:55:11,900
What's going on with all these lies?

4835
02:55:12,040 --> 02:55:14,720
I just want to multiply Don't even know

4836
02:55:14,720 --> 02:55:16,940

4841
02:55:23,860 --> 02:55:26,520
Can't even get the apostrophe right Adult kids
