00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:06.240
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly
on demand from KFI AM six forty and

2
00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:10.960
Look You Here, Look You Here. Even though Towalla sharp hated the movie,

3
00:00:11.800 --> 00:00:19.120
Despicable Me four came in at number
one again and had a very very

4
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:27.320
respectable forty four million dollars or so, even added twenty one theaters. So

5
00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:32.880
even though Twala didn't like the movie, the movie is doing well in theaters

6
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:38.640
now. Movie houses probably appreciate that, but as far as quality of the

7
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:43.479
movie releases, not so much.
Long legs. You probably heard Mark Ronner

8
00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:48.920
explain how that was a surprising number
two with twenty two zero point four million.

9
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:51.880
I still don't know what that movie's
about. Don't know if I'll go

10
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:55.200
to see it. Oh you should
see It's It's good. It's it kind

11
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:59.479
of starts you off in kind of
silence of the Lamb's territory and then gets

12
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:03.600
weirder. Well worth seeing. And
it was only projected to make up to

13
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:07.920
fifteen million dollars over the weekend,
and it really blew that out. Inside

14
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:14.519
Out came in at number three with
nineteen million. Its hall is now up

15
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:21.560
to five hundred and seventy one million. Domestically. That is another bona fide

16
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:26.480
hit. It is globally one point
three four billion, number one movie of

17
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:33.200
the year so far, very very
surprising. I don't think even Pixar expected

18
00:01:33.239 --> 00:01:37.040
that movie to do that. Well, usually you have some level of diminishing

19
00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:41.359
return for a sequel. Oh no, they expected this one to go gangbusters

20
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:45.920
one point four billion gang busters.
The early reports they said that this was

21
00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:49.079
going to be the first billion dollar
film of the year. Well, it

22
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:53.079
was true to form in that regard. I have a quick question. I

23
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:59.760
had the opportunity to see a screening
of the new movie Twisters, which is

24
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:05.159
you yeah, which is not?
It's not a sequel per se to the

25
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:13.120
nineteen ninety sixth movie Twister with Helen
Hunt and Bill Paxton, but it is,

26
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:20.599
they say, a continuation of the
overarching story. It's a succession of

27
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:24.520
that story, but it's not connected
in any way. There are no characters

28
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:30.439
shared, there are no updates on
anyone. There are some homages in it.

29
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:34.759
I saw it. It was okay. The stars Glenn Powell and someone

30
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:37.800
else I never heard of, can't
remember her name, but you know,

31
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:42.960
it was okay. There was some
decent cgi and some tense moments. I

32
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:51.479
did appreciate how they made the movie
as if the tornadoes plural were definitely monstrous,

33
00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:55.599
villainous, they were characters in the
movie. I just didn't buy the

34
00:02:55.639 --> 00:03:00.240
story. If you saw the original, you know, Helen Hunt scarred by

35
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:05.120
the loss and memory of her father, so she's doing this in memory of

36
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:10.479
him to get more information about how
and why tornado's form. This movie the

37
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:16.159
protagonist she scarred because she lost friends
while in college studying tornadoes, trying to

38
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:20.439
get more information about how and why
they form, and the whole movie is

39
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:23.759
about her trying to get more information. Say it with me, how and

40
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:27.960
why Tornado's form. It seems like
everything that Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton did

41
00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:34.680
in nineteen ninety six meant nothing.
Nothing. I thought the whole point of

42
00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:38.840
the device that they created Dorothy Dorothy
one, two and three, it didn't.

43
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:44.360
It didn't because clearly what they're working
with now, with this updated technology,

44
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:47.719
it didn't know much more. I
don't know what to say. It's

45
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:53.360
almost like the first movie didn't happen
at all in the larger telling of the

46
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:58.520
Twisters universe. But there is supposed
to be you know, this is this

47
00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:01.319
is a Twisters universe. It's within
the same world. You know. They

48
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:05.120
even have the ho watch it's not
a big secret. It's in the trailer.

49
00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:09.199
Then O watch to the Red Truck. They have almost an identical red

50
00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:12.759
truck. It's just old and beat
up. Now that's the main truck in

51
00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:15.319
this movie. Okay, yeah,
it was. Okay, I just threw

52
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:17.319
that in it because I'm trying to
figure out when it comes out. I

53
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:20.600
think it comes out tomorrow, so
there's a lot of anticipation for that.

54
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:30.399
I loved Twister the original, so
it was it was sledding uphill for me.

55
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:33.959
Glenn Powell, it's a fine actor. It's just the movie itself.

56
00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:38.920
They should have called it, I
don't know, tornadoes or something like that.

57
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:42.480
It's just don't call it something else. Don't try to connect it.

58
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:46.959
They had the same even font as
the original movie, so they're trying to

59
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:50.319
let you know it's a continuation of
the storyline, but it's not a continuation

60
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:57.000
of the storyline. Boy, look
at the perks. You get an advance

61
00:04:57.120 --> 00:05:00.240
screening in the Twister movie. You're
on the no no, no, boy,

62
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:03.240
you don't know twall and nin We
used to go to a lot of

63
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:08.040
screenings a lot because we had more
time. Now, if you're doing a

64
00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:12.560
show between seven and ten Monday through
Friday, look, I get lot.

65
00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:17.120
I get invites to screenings from Amazon, but they're all started away six o'clock,

66
00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:21.959
starting to get step and I'm like, no, can't go. So

67
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:28.079
that will probably be number one this
week, this coming week. But let

68
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:30.639
me get back to the chart.
Coming in at number four this week is

69
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.959
a quiet place Day one. It's
still hanging tough as a total of one

70
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:41.439
hundred and fifteen million domestically and two
hundred and twenty million worldwide. But see

71
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.959
this is another example of diminishing returns. I think that's the lowest of the

72
00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:50.560
three movies total gross, if I'm
not mistaken. Number five, fly Me

73
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:55.120
to the Moon. I think that
underperformed. It came in with nine million,

74
00:05:55.199 --> 00:06:00.279
and this is a debut week.
That's domestic, and it had nine

75
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:04.120
million international, so eighteen million worldwide. I didn't really care. I didn't

76
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:08.160
want to see that movie because I've
seen the movie Capricorn one, so at

77
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:11.959
best, it's a pale imitation of
Capricorn one. If you know the storyline,

78
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.639
Oh, you can't beat Capricorn one. Capricorn One with better special effects

79
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:20.160
could have been a classic movie.
I think it is a classic movie regardless

80
00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:23.639
of the present. I think it's
a cult classic. I think it's a

81
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:28.360
cult classic. It could have been
a straight up classic if it had today's

82
00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:30.199
production sensibilities available to it. Well, yeah, and you and I were

83
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:33.240
talking about outlined a couple of breaks
ago, same director Peter Hyams. He

84
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:39.399
ranked out some wonderfully entertaining stuff for
a couple of decades around the eighties and

85
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:45.240
seventies. Bad Boys Ride or Die
at number six, coming in at number

86
00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:51.519
seven, It's Horizon American Saga Chapter
one coming in a number eightist Maxine Triple

87
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:56.759
X number nine, Sound of Hope, the Story of Possum Trot. And

88
00:06:56.800 --> 00:07:00.079
I'm hearing like a lot of good
reviews on that. That what I'm not

89
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:04.800
going to see him? Try?
Well, would you rather see Indian two,

90
00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:09.399
which came in at number two with
one I guess I'm saying, I

91
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:13.600
have no idea what's happening. It
came in at number ten. I don't

92
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:16.160
like that. And did you know
they re released The Lion King. It

93
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:20.480
brought in a million dollars this week? Yeah, that's just cheap. That's

94
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:23.720
just a cheap play. That's just
like free money. It's like, let's

95
00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:27.360
just throw it back in theaters this
summertime. Yeah, somebody will go see

96
00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:30.279
it. Now, see the Horizon
movie that did so bad that they've canceled

97
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:33.519
Horizon too. Well, they didn't
cancel it, they postponed it. I

98
00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:38.079
thought they they postponed a damn nearing. Definitely. No. I thought that

99
00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:40.600
they weren't going to try to release
the next one in theaters, so it

100
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:43.839
was supposed to go direct to streaming. Well, the last that I read

101
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.319
was that they wanted to give this
first one more of a chance to be

102
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:49.800
seen by people, and so they
pushed off the second one. They want

103
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:55.839
people to see this on streaming on
max on. I won't. I really

104
00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:59.160
want to see it, and I
feel bad that I didn't go and see

105
00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:01.839
it in the theater, But now
that I know it's going to be hidden

106
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:05.319
streaming soon, I'm not going to. It's hard for me to watch long,

107
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:11.800
dull movies. It was. It
took me like three different sittings to

108
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:15.839
watch Doom Part two. I still
haven't bothered because the first one was such

109
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:20.639
a snoozer. It's kind of like
the second part of that Zack Snyder abomination

110
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:24.399
that's on Netflix. Why would I
put myself through a part two if the

111
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:26.439
first one sucks. I'm telling you
part two. I don't care what Tawalla

112
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:31.319
says. He's wrong. It's worse
than part one. And that took me

113
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:35.720
like five sittings, no exaggeration,
short, every hour counts. I couldn't

114
00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:39.000
get through it. It was so
bad. Yeah, it was streaming bad.

115
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:43.519
Your Horizon movie. They say it's
pulled from theaters, so it's not

116
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:50.679
coming out August, and at this
time the film remains unclear when it will

117
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:52.399
ever come out. Well, that's
too bad. I love Westerns, and

118
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:56.679
I'm kind of I'm ambivalent about Costner, but I think he knows how to

119
00:08:56.679 --> 00:09:00.440
make a decent movie. Yeah,
I think he does. It's just that

120
00:09:00.679 --> 00:09:05.960
me personally, I don't like long, slow plotting movies. Not not any

121
00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:09.639
of the Lord of the Rings movies, none of them. I just there's

122
00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:13.799
a lot of walking and talking.
I don't need three hours of that.

123
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:16.639
That's honestly part of what's kept me
from seeing it in the theater, because

124
00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:20.559
you got to spend like a half
a day just to see this movie.

125
00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:24.000
And as we get older, I
get crankier and crankier about movies that are

126
00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:28.120
over two hours, Like you couldn't
do this in two hours or ninety minutes?

127
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:30.639
Really well, not only that,
I got to go to the bathroom.

128
00:09:30.799 --> 00:09:35.320
You know it's three hours. Yeah, I forgot to mention your prostate.

129
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:37.600
I'm sorry. Thank you. At
least I care about my prostate even

130
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:43.200
if you don't know. We all
do. Thank you. That wasn't funny.

131
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.600
It wasn't a joke. It's a
statement of fact. I'm gonna start

132
00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:50.679
making most prostate or regular feature of
my weekly reviews. No, no,

133
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:54.799
it was making an appearance. It's
not going to stay. It's not going

134
00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:56.919
to be a regular feature. Well, it'll be subtext in all of them,

135
00:09:56.919 --> 00:10:00.960
whether or not you pick up on
it. Later with mo Kelly,

136
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.440
we're going to talk about Atari Summer
Camp when we come back KFI AE six

137
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:09.480
forty Like everywhere in the iHeartRadio app
you're listening to Later with mo Kelly on

138
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:13.360
demand from KFI AM six forty Atari. We all know it's one of the

139
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:20.399
world's most iconic consumer brands and interactive
entertainment producers in the world. They announced

140
00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:26.759
earlier that there is open enrollment for
Atari Summer Camp, which is an eight

141
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:35.320
week online celebration of retro gaming and
everything nineteen eighties. And that's just perfect

142
00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:39.679
for someone who's gen X like me, and anyone can join during the camp

143
00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:45.159
season by signing up at Atari dot
com. And I have to ask this

144
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:52.320
question, Elmer, you were born
in the late twentieth century ninety two?

145
00:10:54.240 --> 00:10:58.000
Do you have any memory of an
Atari console? I never owned one,

146
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:03.039
but like I know of them,
Mark, he knows of them. He's

147
00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:11.240
never laid his hand on an Atari
console. Wow. There are partner events

148
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:15.200
and virtual field trips which will be
announced with the course of the four two

149
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:20.480
week sessions. They also include special
activations Coinbase, Nifty Island, roller Coaster,

150
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:26.399
Tycoon, and more. Participants will
log into a personalized Atari club page

151
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.799
and gain access to a camp portal
model after an Atari st desktop that is

152
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:37.960
hosted by an AI Camp director,
Old Meeting. New programming will take place

153
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.480
in Discord, social media, and
several immersive partner platforms. If you're on

154
00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:43.879
the net, you know what all
that means. There's going to be a

155
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:48.399
mix of virtual and IRL in real
life. Activities will be revealed over the

156
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:54.840
eight week camp including high score competitions, scavenger hunts, creative projects, trivia,

157
00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:58.320
and special apparel and accessory drops.
Let me just ask you this.

158
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:01.440
Can you really call it a summer
camp? If it's eight weeks long,

159
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:05.679
that sounds like a semester, That
sounds like a chore. I don't want

160
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:11.360
to do anything for eight weeks.
Nah, you're not a gamer, though,

161
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:15.320
that's true. That's true. I
haven't been a gamer since I played

162
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:18.360
an Atari. I never had an
Atari, but I played Atario with my

163
00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:22.159
friend across the street. I had
in a television. Yeah, Elver's making

164
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:26.159
me feel ancient here. I actually
had in my swinging Bachelor Pat and Seattle

165
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:31.519
a Donkey Kong cocktail machine. I
can't go wrong. No, I feel

166
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:35.440
like two hundred years old now though
well it was only like fifty years ago,

167
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.480
so yeah, that was fresh for
all of us. But my son

168
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:41.399
would have been into this, like
when he was younger, he would probably

169
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:45.919
wanted to attend some rather than going
to an actual camp. As much as

170
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:48.440
he's into gaming, he would have
loved something like this. And as you

171
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:52.759
know, the Atari Summer Camp is
inspired by the Atari operated computer camps from

172
00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:56.600
aspiring programmers that ran in the nineteen
eighties, the camps blended a comprehensive computer

173
00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:03.159
education and programming curriculum with a more
additional camp experience including social activities, sports,

174
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:05.480
swimming, music, and arts.
So it's not just programming and playing

175
00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:09.440
games. There's a there's a degree
of physicality with it. There's a full

176
00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:13.919
uh. The Atari Club is an
expression of Atari's history, it's present,

177
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:18.399
and its future. It's a nexus
for connecting with fans and partners and together

178
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:22.679
exploring Atari and collaborating on future projects. And here's another example. We talked

179
00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:30.519
about this before. Usually the company
which has the first success doesn't have the

180
00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:37.120
lasting success. When you think about
a home gaming console, Atari was it.

181
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:39.159
It was the first one, and
it was huge, and then it

182
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:43.399
disappeared. Don't forget Pond Well,
but that was a game. When I'm

183
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:50.080
talking about a console where you had
cartridges and cassettes in the way that changed

184
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:54.399
the way that we had We left
the physical arcade and could play versions of

185
00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:58.399
arcade games at home. Oh my
god, it was like we were living

186
00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:01.200
in the future. Are you kidding? It was the best of times and

187
00:14:01.240 --> 00:14:03.919
the best of times. There was
no downside to it at all, even

188
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:11.720
though the graphics were prehistoric. They
were two dimensional basic blocks and bricks,

189
00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:15.360
but it made the most out of
it. Also, Donkey Kong was really

190
00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:18.440
hard. Pac Man I found you
could get some expertise and make a quarter

191
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:24.360
go for a while. Oh yeah, but I mean the stand up vertical

192
00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:28.240
arcade games. There was no replacing
them, but you still could have that

193
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:33.120
fun playing games and versions of them
at home. Like you had a missile

194
00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:37.960
command in the arcade and you had
a missile command on Atari. Oh those

195
00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:41.559
are also hard missile command. To
give you a breakdown, Well, I

196
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:43.480
hated some of those games because no
matter what you were going to lose,

197
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:48.639
it was just a matter of time. You always be an Asteroids. Whatever

198
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.279
you were gonna lose, you're only
gonna get but so High Galaga, you

199
00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:56.840
were gonna lose. That was my
frustrating There was like you never got to

200
00:14:56.879 --> 00:15:01.440
a boss level where you won the
game. Twenty six hundred did that though.

201
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:03.799
The twenty six hundred when when it
started getting more and more advanced,

202
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:09.399
that is what what kept us out
of the arcade is when the game stepped

203
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:11.679
up and the graphics started looking good. That is when it was next Level

204
00:15:13.519 --> 00:15:16.159
fifty fifty two hundred yes, yes, that that's when it was like,

205
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:22.519
okay, Pitfall and right, you
know dig Doug all the drag and dragons

206
00:15:22.559 --> 00:15:26.759
like stuff like that was like,
that's next level for us. Dig Doug

207
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:31.879
also pretty hard. In fact,
I'll admit this as a fully grown adult,

208
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:35.679
I went on a dig Dug thing
like last year, and I wouldn't

209
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:41.559
quit until I reached a certain score. That game is not easy, but

210
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:46.360
a Cubert. I hated Cubert.
Cubert is tough too and irritating. I

211
00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:52.000
liked Defender, especially on Atari and
in the Arcade and also Zaxxon. Oh

212
00:15:52.279 --> 00:15:56.279
you may not remember Zaxon. You
play that. It was like a three

213
00:15:56.279 --> 00:16:00.559
dimensional game where you're trying to fly, almost like to these Tetris type openings.

214
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:06.840
It was really hard, but there
was a reasonable version of it on

215
00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:10.519
Atari, and yeah, it was
great. It was great back then.

216
00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:12.840
There's no way that kids today would
look at that. It's like you actually

217
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:18.919
spent time play because it was ridiculously
prehistoric. But yeah, and it's weird

218
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:22.480
because for as much as I played
computer games back then, I don't have

219
00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:26.159
any desire to do them now.
My computer games are other things now.

220
00:16:26.200 --> 00:16:30.519
I like doing other things with my
time. I feel like I'm wasting time

221
00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:33.679
just playing games. I have no
games on my phone zero. I just

222
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:38.759
don't play games now. I don't
mind like stat games that are kind of

223
00:16:38.840 --> 00:16:41.399
running in the background, like fantasy
football, those types of things, I

224
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:45.679
don't have to devote a lot of
time and it can just kind of do

225
00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:49.159
its own thing. But to sit
there and be a captive audience to a

226
00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:52.080
game for three or four hours at
a time, no, can't do it.

227
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:55.159
Well, that's what happens. I'll
get wrapped up in a game and

228
00:16:55.159 --> 00:16:57.879
I'll lose a couple of days,
four days days, yes, And at

229
00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:00.240
the end of that, I'll think, what do I retain of this?

230
00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:03.680
What is this worth? It's not
like reading a great book or seeing a

231
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:07.119
couple of great movies. It's just
kind of done when it's done right.

232
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:14.240
And I never developed that gene in
adulthood, Like I never got into the

233
00:17:14.279 --> 00:17:19.119
whole Xbox Sony PlayStation, none of
that. And the games are tremendous.

234
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:26.000
They are wowsers as far as the
capabilities and functionality, and I could admire

235
00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:27.720
them, but I have no desire
to play them none. Well, I

236
00:17:27.960 --> 00:17:33.599
still play those first and third person
shooters but at a certain point they're all

237
00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:36.920
the same. See, and I
never got into the shooters never. I

238
00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:41.759
like the games like Wizardry, the
role playing games. You'd have attributes and

239
00:17:41.799 --> 00:17:47.279
you could put together teams of people. But that was it. Those are

240
00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:49.839
the games that appealed to me and
that grew out of the I would say,

241
00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:56.519
the beginning computer revolution and BBS bulletin
board systems, not the cartridge games

242
00:17:56.559 --> 00:18:00.960
of the of the Atari years.
So you don't have a console at home.

243
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:03.839
I hadn't. I had in television. But now you don't know now,

244
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:08.039
Mark, you're a gamer. Now
you game currently right now, not

245
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:11.279
as much as I used to.
I only have a PS four. I

246
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:14.359
don't have a five. There you
go, there it is. I only

247
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:18.119
have a four, not a five. I don't have the latest console nothing,

248
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:22.599
all right, I don't have the
time for a PS anything, PS

249
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:30.519
prostage for you, right, Okay, fair enough? Call back? Okay

250
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:33.599
if you open your mouth any wider
when you do that, your teeth are

251
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:37.720
gonna fall right out. Come on, no, so they you can't be

252
00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:45.079
goaded into a rim shot. What
the hell is wrong with you? Him?

253
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:48.400
Scold you like that, he's not
your boss. Just later, with

254
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:51.519
Mokelly. Can if I answer sported
with love everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.

255
00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:55.000
And we have a NASA update.
They're investing in our rocket that could get

256
00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:59.920
humans to Mars and back in two
months, two months, be home in

257
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:04.359
time for dinner. You're listening to
Later with Moe Kelly on demand from KFI

258
00:19:04.599 --> 00:19:10.200
AM six forty. Growing up as
a kid, I loved space exploration,

259
00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:14.079
the idea of it. I was
a Space Shuttle kid. I was too

260
00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:18.640
young to remember the Apollo missions.
I got to see all of the Space

261
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:23.160
Shuttle missions and the development of the
Space Shuttle. But we didn't go anywhere.

262
00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:26.039
We didn't go to the Moon,
we didn't go to Mars, we

263
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:30.599
didn't go anywhere cool. We just
kind of launched, you know, rotated

264
00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:33.200
the Earth a few times, and
then we came back and landed. I

265
00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:40.160
wanted us to explore, explore farther
out into the reaches of space space.

266
00:19:40.359 --> 00:19:45.319
But the but the difficulty was that
we did not technologically have the propulsion available

267
00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:51.799
to do it. To get to
Mars would mean an extended trip in which

268
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:57.000
astronauts would be exposed to ungodly amounts
of radiation, and it probably would be

269
00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:02.400
a one way trip. It would
take too long to get to Mars and

270
00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:06.839
unlikely that they would be able to
get astronauts back. So up until now

271
00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:14.160
it's been a fool's errand in that
regard more imagination than anything. And if

272
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:21.519
we could ever develop the propulsion side
and get astronauts to and from Mars quicker

273
00:20:22.200 --> 00:20:29.079
than Mars becomes more of a likely
destination. Now there is the pulsed plasma

274
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:34.759
rocket, which in theory could propel
a ship up to one hundred thousand miles

275
00:20:34.839 --> 00:20:41.200
per hour. NASA has invested seven
hundred and twenty five thousand dollars, which

276
00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:45.000
is a paltry sum, but they've
invested about three quarters of a million dollars

277
00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:52.200
in a new rocket system that,
if it does as advertise, could solve

278
00:20:52.240 --> 00:20:57.279
one of the major obstacles in regard
to sending humans to Mars, just trying

279
00:20:57.359 --> 00:21:03.920
to shorten the travel time. Currently, a round trip to Mars would take

280
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:08.720
almost two years, a year there
and a year back. All that radiation

281
00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:15.480
exposure in between, there's not enough
shielding. All that radiation in between most

282
00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:21.119
likely would kill you just on the
way there. There's solar radiation, there's

283
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:26.839
cosmic radiation, there's the harmful effects
of zero gravity, the isolation being in

284
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:32.440
that small tube or whatever it is
for a year each way, and then

285
00:21:32.519 --> 00:21:37.240
there's just the i would say,
the harsh elements of the Mars atmosphere.

286
00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:42.400
It's least likely, it's very unlikely
that astronauts would survive the journey, much

287
00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:49.319
less survive Mars because space radiation is
the biggest threat astronauts who spend just six

288
00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:56.680
months in space I'm saying in space
low orbit, not actually traveling anywhere,

289
00:21:56.680 --> 00:22:00.319
but just low orbit, they are
exposed to roughly the same amount of radiation

290
00:22:00.960 --> 00:22:10.119
as one thousand chest X rays one
thousand just sitting up on the space station.

291
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:15.319
It's almost like if you go to
the International Space Station and spend a

292
00:22:15.319 --> 00:22:21.880
good six months there, you have
more than quadrupled your risk for cancer or

293
00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:26.960
nervous system damage, bone loss,
heart disease. And that's just a short

294
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:30.240
list of staying in space. Because
when you're in space, you don't have

295
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:34.519
the benefit of the protection of our
atmosphere, which usually blocks out most of

296
00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:38.720
the cosmic in space radiation. In
space, you're just out there and you're

297
00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:44.480
just just sucking it all in.
But if you get to Mars, quicker,

298
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:49.119
less time, there's less exposure to
that radiation instead of the two year

299
00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:56.640
journey. But about this new technology, it would be another twenty years before

300
00:22:56.759 --> 00:23:02.480
this technology could be fully developed,
tested and actually put into use. Twenty

301
00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:07.599
years, so that makes Mark Ronner
about eighty seven by the time this is

302
00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:10.440
actually a real thing. If I
can hear you in here, oh,

303
00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:14.279
I'm sorry, just making sure that
you're listening. Well. This new propulsion,

304
00:23:14.559 --> 00:23:21.440
theorized propulsion system. It uses pulses
of superheated plasma to generate tremendous levels

305
00:23:21.519 --> 00:23:26.160
of thrust and it's currently in phase
two of development and it's funded by a

306
00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:32.359
NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts Program. The
Phase two study is scheduled to begin this

307
00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:37.119
month and is focused on optimizing the
engine design, performing proof of concept experiments,

308
00:23:37.160 --> 00:23:44.079
and designing a PPR powered shield shit
a spaceship for human missions to Mars.

309
00:23:44.440 --> 00:23:48.799
And this will probably be something for
Elma's children or grandchildren, not for

310
00:23:48.839 --> 00:23:52.119
you of me. Mark, Well, but who doesn't like tremendous levels of

311
00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:57.799
thrust? Though, honestly, Elbert, no, that's just a double ententent.

312
00:23:57.839 --> 00:24:03.079
That's not like intimidate. You don't
have to do that I would say

313
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:08.759
this most technology is beyond our years. I think the next major advancement in

314
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:15.000
thrust is probably beyond our lifetimes.
We're not going to reach interstellar light speed

315
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:18.680
anytime soon. That way, at
your age, you're never going to have

316
00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:23.680
an advancement in thrust. No,
there we go. Goodness, gracious,

317
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:27.759
it's about time. Yes, well, they're they're estimating if everything were to

318
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:34.799
work as theorized, this spacecraft carrying
four people or six people could travel roughly

319
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:40.839
one hundred thousand miles per hour,
and the PPR rocket would have to slow

320
00:24:40.880 --> 00:24:44.160
down significantly to enter orbit. So
that's the thing, you know, when

321
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:47.279
you have one hundred thousand miles an
hour in speed, you have to develop

322
00:24:47.359 --> 00:24:49.759
some sort of space break to slow
down. Yeah, physics don't work the

323
00:24:49.799 --> 00:24:52.920
way you see them in Star Wars. No, not at all. It's

324
00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:56.359
not like you can just slow down
and break and hit that curve like they

325
00:24:56.359 --> 00:24:59.960
do in Star Wars. You can't
have a dog fight. You don't hear

326
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:02.720
your stuff. No, you don't
hear stuff. You don't hear the lasers

327
00:25:02.720 --> 00:25:06.880
in the shooting and explosions, none
of that. The Star Wars has never

328
00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:10.480
really been big on actual science oh, Star Wars is fantasy. Star Trek

329
00:25:10.559 --> 00:25:15.039
is science fiction. Yeah, the
closest thing I would say to science as

330
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.240
far as movies go. And two
thousand and one Interstellar was pretty good.

331
00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:22.680
I'm not so sure I agreed with
the whole bookcase thing, but the ending

332
00:25:23.119 --> 00:25:26.839
was. It was great until they
got to the third act. Put it

333
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:30.200
that way. Yeah, character motivations, none of it made sense. Way,

334
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:33.480
mate, You're gonna leave your daughter
that you were trying the whole movie

335
00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:36.880
to get back to, who's get
old and getting ready to die, to

336
00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:40.200
chase after this chick who's on the
other side of the galaxy, who doesn't

337
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:45.440
even like you, who's obsessed about
some other astronaut who died on said rock

338
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.599
on the other side of the galaxy. And you can just take a spaceship

339
00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:51.599
on a joy ride. Just pick
one, just pick one, and just

340
00:25:51.640 --> 00:25:55.000
take one from the hangar and go, and gonna leave all the new family

341
00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:57.519
members that you never met. In
other words, your daughter, her children,

342
00:25:57.759 --> 00:26:02.880
her grandchildren, great great grandchildren.
They had all of a conversation of

343
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:07.880
four minutes, and he was out
chasing some ass. You didn't see Neil

344
00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:11.359
Armstrong doing that, not at all. And he was a real American hero,

345
00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:15.519
not Matthew McConaughey, He's a fake
American hero. It's Later with Mo

346
00:26:15.640 --> 00:26:18.119
Kelly. We'll check you in with
George Norri Coast Coast AM. In just

347
00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:22.240
a moment k IF I Am six
forty. We are live everywhere on the

348
00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:37.960
iHeartRadio app k IF I Am six
forty. It is Later with Mo Kelly,

349
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:41.039
Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Coming up in just a few moments

350
00:26:41.039 --> 00:26:45.839
will be Coast to Coast AM with
George Norri, who joins me right now

351
00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:48.480
on the line. Good evening,
sir, What a weekend. Mo huh.

352
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:53.720
That's one way to describe it.
It's one thing to experience things in

353
00:26:53.799 --> 00:26:59.519
real time, but it's it's like
the world is speeding up in a way

354
00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:03.359
which I can can't even comprehend.
In our lifetime, we have been through

355
00:27:03.400 --> 00:27:07.119
so much stuff, haven't we.
It seems like history moved at a snail's

356
00:27:07.160 --> 00:27:11.359
pace in comparison. Anyway. On
the show tonight, after our News of

357
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:14.559
the day, which we will cover
the big story of course, we're going

358
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:18.119
to talk about forbidden archaeology. Then
later on a little walk on the Paranormal

359
00:27:18.240 --> 00:27:22.400
side on Coast to coast. All
right, I'll be sure to be tuning

360
00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:25.440
in on the way home, sir. Thanks Mom, And before we get

361
00:27:25.480 --> 00:27:27.480
out of here, just want to
remind you if there's anything that you missed

362
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:30.960
a part of tonight's show. Let's
say you want to pick up your horoscope

363
00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:34.359
and didn't hear it, or you
want to hear my thoughts about the Trump

364
00:27:34.400 --> 00:27:40.119
assassination attempt. You didn't hear me
obviously on Saturday or Sunday, and you're

365
00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:42.960
curious what I thought about it.
You can check that out on the podcast.

366
00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:48.599
It was the full first hour of
the show where I laid out where

367
00:27:48.640 --> 00:27:52.519
I was, what I thought in
the moment, what we've learned since the

368
00:27:52.680 --> 00:28:00.880
larger debate about rhetoric and political violence, what path we're on now, what

369
00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:06.680
the future may hold. I address
all of that. I talked about how

370
00:28:07.359 --> 00:28:11.359
what may look like as the eventual
winner of the presidential race right now?

371
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:17.400
If you look at history, it
could go either way. Sometimes we get

372
00:28:17.400 --> 00:28:22.519
a little ahead of ourselves. Twenty
sixteen was a perfect example. Nineteen sixty

373
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:26.440
eight was another example. And I
draw those parallels if you want to check

374
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:30.720
that out. That's all in the
podcast. That Tall Sharp producer of the

375
00:28:30.720 --> 00:28:37.079
program is putting together right now,
and as I was just talking to George

376
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:41.920
Norri talking about the incredible times that
we're living in. I'm a student of

377
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:48.160
history. I love history. I
love looking at the present through the lens

378
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:55.160
of history. What comparisons can be
made, what parallels are there, what

379
00:28:55.559 --> 00:29:00.960
can we learn from previous events which
were similar to what we're appearencing right now.

380
00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:06.400
And even though there are some parallels, nineteen sixty eight is obvious parallel,

381
00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:12.519
there's really nothing like the times we're
in at this moment, and we

382
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:19.920
probably won't have the right words to
explain it or the perspective to best understand

383
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:23.720
it for another twenty thirty years.
You usually have to go way down the

384
00:29:23.799 --> 00:29:30.319
road and look back to best understand
what is happening in this moment. I'm

385
00:29:30.359 --> 00:29:33.759
sure similar words were said in nineteen
sixty eight, given the unrest in the

386
00:29:33.799 --> 00:29:41.519
country, given the assassinations, the
riots, the political acrimony. From what

387
00:29:41.559 --> 00:29:45.920
I understand, it took a good
twenty years or so well into the nineteen

388
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:52.400
eighties to best understand how much tumult
was going on in nineteen sixty eight.

389
00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:56.079
And mind you, that's after the
Civil rights struggles of the Voting Rights Act

390
00:29:56.079 --> 00:30:00.359
and the Civil Rights Act. That's
after the Human miss crisis. I tell

391
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:07.720
you America was a mess in the
nineteen sixties, but you can make an

392
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:15.039
apt comparison to America in the twenty
twenties as far as the amount of dysfunction

393
00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:21.920
that we are dealing with on a
daily basis, the inability to seemingly get

394
00:30:21.920 --> 00:30:27.480
the easy stuff right when it comes
to elections or basic getting along. Everything

395
00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:34.319
is a congressional inquiry. Everything is
a fight on Capitol Hill. Nothing is

396
00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:45.319
easy. We have a dispute about
everything from Christmas to Starbucks, to children's

397
00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:49.880
entertainment to education. We can't agree
on anything, and I'm quite sure people

398
00:30:49.880 --> 00:30:53.079
will say it was because of the
Democrats. So some people will say because

399
00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.799
of the Republicans. I'll let you
all fight that out. Honestly, I'm

400
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:03.559
tired and really, really tired of
what America is right now. And I

401
00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:08.240
was talking to a younger person who
was asking, like, what I thought

402
00:31:08.279 --> 00:31:11.799
about this, Because if you're not
over the age of twenty twenty five,

403
00:31:11.960 --> 00:31:15.160
you have no reference point, you
have no perspective. What you're going through

404
00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:19.680
now is normality. This is what
you expect this is what you know.

405
00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:25.160
This is all you know. You
know what's happening on Capitol Hill. You

406
00:31:25.200 --> 00:31:29.400
expect that that gridlock, that's what
it is, that's always what is going

407
00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:32.599
to be. And I remember a
time it wasn't like that. In the

408
00:31:32.680 --> 00:31:37.079
nineteen eighties. You may have had
Ronald Reagan as president, but you also

409
00:31:37.119 --> 00:31:38.880
had Tip O'Neil as a Speaker of
the House, and somehow, some way,

410
00:31:38.920 --> 00:31:42.599
they managed to get things done,
they managed to move the country forward.

411
00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:47.039
And those days seem so long ago. I don't know if we'll ever

412
00:31:47.079 --> 00:31:48.440
get back to that. But I
was speaking to a young person and trying

413
00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:53.759
to tell them that what's happening right
now is not always like it used to

414
00:31:53.759 --> 00:31:56.599
be, and I don't know if
we'll ever get back to that point.

415
00:31:56.640 --> 00:32:00.799
I don't know what you think of
this moment, mark, but they're oftentimes

416
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:13.799
when I'm very dissuaded and pessimistic about
whether will successfully navigate this moment without decapitate,

417
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:17.720
to capitate decapitating ourselves in the process. Yeah, I can't say I'm

418
00:32:17.799 --> 00:32:22.039
exactly becoming more of an optimist as
we go through these things. But you

419
00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:25.880
mentioned wanting to keep an eye on
history and I'm totally on the same page

420
00:32:27.000 --> 00:32:30.440
as you when it comes to that, and as much of a grotesque cesspool

421
00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:36.279
of disinformation that Twitter is, I
pick close attention to historian Twitter. Yes,

422
00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:39.240
some historians I follow. Kevin Cruz
isn't on there anymore, but he's

423
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:43.480
terrific, and he's probably not on
there because it's turned into such a sesspool.

424
00:32:44.079 --> 00:32:47.720
Timothy Snyder is another good one to
follow. But just look at history

425
00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:54.400
and Twitter, and they have It's
not opinion. These are experts who know

426
00:32:54.599 --> 00:33:00.440
history and will tell you what we're
going through now, what it was embols,

427
00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:04.640
and you know the degree to which
you should be alarmed what people have

428
00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:07.079
done in the past. It's very
instructive to me. Well, let me

429
00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:10.359
put it this way. And I
know you are acting in a news capacity,

430
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:14.240
so I know you choose your words
very wisely. I don't have to

431
00:33:14.319 --> 00:33:19.640
choose them wisely. I always say
history doesn't necessarily repeat itself, but it

432
00:33:19.799 --> 00:33:29.519
damn sure rhymes. There are some
real reminiscent moments, rhetoric occurrences which are

433
00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:34.680
happening right now, and you only
best appreciate that when you have the historical

434
00:33:34.799 --> 00:33:37.359
foundation to recognize it. If you
haven't studied it, then you're not going

435
00:33:37.440 --> 00:33:43.160
to recognize it. It's not going
to seem eerily similar unless you know to

436
00:33:43.200 --> 00:33:46.440
what it's similar to. That's exactly
right. Ruth ben Giott is another one

437
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:51.720
too, and she's yeah, she's
a good one, an expert on totalitarianism

438
00:33:51.759 --> 00:33:54.799
authoritarian governments. And I just you
know, it takes somebody pretty talented to

439
00:33:54.839 --> 00:33:58.680
make history come alive for you.
And I was lucky enough to have a

440
00:33:58.720 --> 00:34:05.160
couple of professors shout out to Leroy
Ashby here who really were good at stringing

441
00:34:05.200 --> 00:34:09.079
things together and making you understand the
significance of how A ultimately led to Z.

442
00:34:09.559 --> 00:34:12.840
And this is a good time to
study that stuff, to read that

443
00:34:12.880 --> 00:34:17.199
stuff. And boyd, when stuff
is happening at the intensity and speed that

444
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:21.400
things are happening now, it hardly
seems like homework. It seems like you're

445
00:34:21.480 --> 00:34:24.559
arming yourself to prepare to understand what
we're going through in this moment. Yeah,

446
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:29.679
And it's never about today. It's
never about what happened today, what

447
00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:35.159
happened yesterday. There's a progression.
There is a series of events which led

448
00:34:35.280 --> 00:34:40.199
up to a certain moment or a
certain politician or a certain occurrence, like

449
00:34:40.360 --> 00:34:45.920
going back to the assassination tempt on
President Trump, it wasn't just what happened

450
00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:49.960
on Saturday. There was a lot
of stuff which led up to it.

451
00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:52.519
And I'm not talking about in the
conspiracy sense. I'm not talking about in

452
00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:57.719
the shooter's life. I'm talking about
the totality of society. You know,

453
00:34:58.000 --> 00:35:01.559
the violence that we see perpetrated on
Saturday is not new. And if we're

454
00:35:01.599 --> 00:35:07.199
going to talk about violent rhetoric,
we have to talk about gun violence in

455
00:35:07.239 --> 00:35:10.840
America. We have to talk about
all these things which are happening simultaneous to

456
00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:16.719
what happened on Saturday. And although
we don't want Saturday to ever happen again,

457
00:35:17.079 --> 00:35:22.599
it probably will happen again because we
fully embrace violence and violent rhetoric in

458
00:35:22.679 --> 00:35:28.639
America, and we don't have that
conversation. We're too busy talking about condemning

459
00:35:28.840 --> 00:35:31.559
the Democrats for what they said on
Tuesday and not talking about what has been

460
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:37.360
said for the past two years,
the past four years, and the things

461
00:35:37.360 --> 00:35:40.960
which have happened that you were okay
with. But since it didn't happen to

462
00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:46.719
your preferred candidate or your preferred party, then it's no big deal. Like

463
00:35:46.760 --> 00:35:50.880
I said in the first segment,
a lot of folks were laughing at Paul

464
00:35:50.920 --> 00:35:54.039
Pelosi getting hit with a hammer.
Don't think I forgot, And those same

465
00:35:54.079 --> 00:35:57.639
people are saying today, oh my
gosh, we need to tone down the

466
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:02.400
rhetoric. Rhetoric, really really.
There are a lot of self appointed hall

467
00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:06.440
monitors that I've seen, and I've
been doing as much reading, watching,

468
00:36:06.519 --> 00:36:12.679
listening as I possibly can, and
they almost convey that it's impolite to bring

469
00:36:12.760 --> 00:36:16.000
up things that we know in the
recent passage. Yes, don't ever let

470
00:36:16.039 --> 00:36:20.880
anyone tell you to do that,
ever, because the opposite is true.

471
00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:23.639
Right now, we need to be
mindful of what's gone before, and you

472
00:36:23.760 --> 00:36:28.039
just can't have an honest discussion about
this stuff unless you bring everything into it.

473
00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:30.000
Well, but see, the thing
is, you're presupposing that people want

474
00:36:30.039 --> 00:36:35.519
to have an honest discussion. I
don't think so. I think people want

475
00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:39.880
to be politically right, small r
in the moment so they can win an

476
00:36:40.039 --> 00:36:45.440
argument on Twitter, on social media, not actually getting to the heart of

477
00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:50.199
the matter. If you're only worried
about political violence since Saturday, I can't

478
00:36:50.199 --> 00:36:52.239
take you seriously. No, it's
a form of gas lighting, intimidation,

479
00:36:52.480 --> 00:36:55.760
bullying. You've got to put it
into the big picture. And anybody who

480
00:36:55.800 --> 00:37:00.760
tells you now is not a good
time to talk about x Y or z

481
00:37:00.039 --> 00:37:04.960
or politicized x Y or Z.
Those aren't serious people. You shouldn't listen

482
00:37:05.000 --> 00:37:07.679
to them, not at all.
But you can listen to us. There

483
00:37:07.760 --> 00:37:10.599
you go. Welcome back tomorrow,
same time. Kf I am six forty.

484
00:37:10.760 --> 00:37:15.880
We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. I'm not just stimulating talk even

485
00:37:16.039 --> 00:37:22.159
more. K S I M K
