00:00:39.799 --> 00:00:42.240
<v Speaker 5>Happy Wednesday, Happy Wednesday to you. I have to say

10
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:44.320
<v Speaker 5>before we get rolling, I love your outfit, thank you

11
00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:44.840
<v Speaker 5>very much.

12
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.880
<v Speaker 4>Is that from Japan? No, it's from Walmart, from the

13
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:52.439
<v Speaker 4>neighbor China. But through our fans, Walmart has up their

14
00:00:52.479 --> 00:00:55.359
<v Speaker 4>fashion game. I was talking to one of our coworkers

15
00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:58.159
<v Speaker 4>here about this because she complimented something I was wearing.

16
00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:02.280
<v Speaker 4>I was like, Walmart, Highland's Ranch Walmart, and she was like,

17
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:07.519
<v Speaker 4>what pointed to her own outfit? Walmart? I mean, well,

18
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:10.200
<v Speaker 4>Walmart hired a fashion guy away from Target apparently a

19
00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:13.560
<v Speaker 4>few years ago, and they've up their fashion. Yeah. I

20
00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:15.120
<v Speaker 4>like it. It's fun. It's just you know, it's kind

21
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:17.799
<v Speaker 4>of flowing, kind of nice and can itch you ah,

22
00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:21.560
<v Speaker 4>just reflecting back on that. Let's jump into the blog,

23
00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:23.719
<v Speaker 4>because guys, we have so much stuff going on today.

24
00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:29.879
<v Speaker 4>I went down a rabbit hole yesterday on Syria, and

25
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:38.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't understand for a guy who does not seem

26
00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:42.799
<v Speaker 4>to worry at all about smashing historical norms, and some

27
00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:45.439
<v Speaker 4>historical norms need to be smashed. As a matter of fact,

28
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:47.319
<v Speaker 4>We're going to get to one historical norm here in

29
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:49.560
<v Speaker 4>a minute that needs to be smashed, which is kind

30
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:51.000
<v Speaker 4>of the whole point of this rabbit hole that I

31
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:56.200
<v Speaker 4>went down yesterday. But it seems that Trump's foreign policy,

32
00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:58.519
<v Speaker 4>which so much of I have agreed with. I have

33
00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:03.560
<v Speaker 4>so agreed with his manhandling of NATO. All of those

34
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.640
<v Speaker 4>NATO nations needed to step up a long time ago,

35
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:10.240
<v Speaker 4>and lots of presidents have complained about it, but he

36
00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:12.319
<v Speaker 4>was the first one to actually shove it down their

37
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:14.439
<v Speaker 4>throat and make them step up, and they are now.

38
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:17.800
<v Speaker 4>So things like that I love. I love that that

39
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:20.360
<v Speaker 4>he just crept all over historical norms when it comes

40
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:22.400
<v Speaker 4>to letting NATO off the hook when it comes to

41
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:25.759
<v Speaker 4>meeting their defense responsibilities. I love that about Donald Trump.

42
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:29.000
<v Speaker 4>But I think we're getting sucked in or at least

43
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:34.639
<v Speaker 4>pursuing similar strategies in the Middle East with Syria that

44
00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:37.800
<v Speaker 4>have been pursued before, and I don't see them working.

45
00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:40.039
<v Speaker 4>Let's do this. Let's get into the blog, and I'm

46
00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:43.919
<v Speaker 4>gonna suck you down this rabbit hole with me. Fascinating, horrifying.

47
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:48.080
<v Speaker 4>You're gonna be like, what are we doing again? But anyway,

48
00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:51.319
<v Speaker 4>find the blog by going to mandy'sblog dot com. That's

49
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:54.120
<v Speaker 4>mandy'sblog dot com. When you get there, go to the

50
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:57.479
<v Speaker 4>latest post section and look for seven sixteen to twenty

51
00:02:57.520 --> 00:03:00.680
<v Speaker 4>five blog why is it only genocide when Israel does it?

52
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:03.120
<v Speaker 4>Click on that and here are the headlines you will

53
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:04.680
<v Speaker 4>find within. I think it was the.

54
00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:06.719
<v Speaker 6>Office half American, all with ships and clipmans and state

55
00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:10.159
<v Speaker 6>that's going to press plant today.

56
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:13.560
<v Speaker 4>On the blug Weather Wednesday at twelve thirty, Syria is

57
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:18.120
<v Speaker 4>committing genocide and no one cares. Scrolling scrolling. Should we

58
00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:23.000
<v Speaker 4>really be giving meth and fentanyl smoking tips? Scrolling scrolling?

59
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:28.719
<v Speaker 4>Today's listener question, Phil Wiser chooses virtue signaling over common sense.

60
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:32.800
<v Speaker 4>Andy's wrong on ice masking too. The Anti Wolf group

61
00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:35.759
<v Speaker 4>isn't raising much money. Big fires are burning on the

62
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:39.080
<v Speaker 4>Western slope. The governor wants your opinion about his ugly

63
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:43.120
<v Speaker 4>ass bridge timeline cleanser for the day, Pat Sir Tan

64
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:46.520
<v Speaker 4>is recognized as the best. Some cuts are coming to

65
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:50.520
<v Speaker 4>the federal budget. Another young motorcyclist is dead. Gabe Evans

66
00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:54.120
<v Speaker 4>is raising decent money. Colorado cities are unhappy with Polus's

67
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:57.960
<v Speaker 4>land use takeover. Broadcast television hits a new low about

68
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:04.120
<v Speaker 4>the Federal Reserve's ostentatious remodel. The end of weaponized empathy. Dude,

69
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:08.199
<v Speaker 4>Grandma's gaming again. This looks like a food challenge to me.

70
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:11.719
<v Speaker 4>Want to make some keyboard music. Douglas Murray is having

71
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:15.599
<v Speaker 4>none of the lgbtqia plus nonsense, the right way to

72
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.399
<v Speaker 4>say no, we don't deserve dogs? And how did Japan

73
00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:23.079
<v Speaker 4>get rich and not fat? Those are the headlines on

74
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:27.120
<v Speaker 4>the blog at mandy'sblog dot com. I did notice something

75
00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:31.240
<v Speaker 4>in Japan, and that is literally no one is fat.

76
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:36.399
<v Speaker 4>I don't think I saw an overweight Japanese person. Now,

77
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:40.879
<v Speaker 4>I did see over white, overweight white people. I did

78
00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:45.279
<v Speaker 4>see over white or or overweight people of other ethnicities

79
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:48.240
<v Speaker 4>that were not necessarily Japanese. But there were no fat

80
00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:51.959
<v Speaker 4>Japanese people. Part of it is their diet and the food, yes, yes,

81
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:54.759
<v Speaker 4>because they eat what's the word. I'm looking for real

82
00:04:54.800 --> 00:05:00.040
<v Speaker 4>food with ingredients that you've actually heard of, and I

83
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:03.399
<v Speaker 4>don't have you know, multi syllabic names. Anyway, that this

84
00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:06.240
<v Speaker 4>video is really really good though, because it talks about

85
00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:09.360
<v Speaker 4>what kids eat in school and back in the day,

86
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:11.879
<v Speaker 4>back in the way back machine, back in the back

87
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:16.199
<v Speaker 4>in the twentieth century, Grant, we had what was your

88
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.439
<v Speaker 4>school cafeteria? Like at school, Grant when and let's start

89
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:21.839
<v Speaker 4>high school, because like, I didn't have a cafeteria. I

90
00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:24.199
<v Speaker 4>went to Catholic school in elementary school, so we did

91
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:26.439
<v Speaker 4>have like a cafeteria. We all had to bring our lunch.

92
00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:29.360
<v Speaker 4>Really yeah, it was a private school, so they didn't

93
00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:31.439
<v Speaker 4>have a kitchen. You just had to bring your lunch

94
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:33.560
<v Speaker 4>and then you all went to the lunch room and

95
00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:35.600
<v Speaker 4>ate it. But anyway, that's a story for another time.

96
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:37.360
<v Speaker 4>What was your high school cafeteria?

97
00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:37.639
<v Speaker 3>Like?

98
00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:39.920
<v Speaker 4>Did they make all the food there?

99
00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:42.240
<v Speaker 5>Eat all the food there every day? It was not

100
00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:43.839
<v Speaker 5>the greatest food, but it was deep.

101
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:45.399
<v Speaker 4>So wait a minute, wait a minute, you know what

102
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:47.519
<v Speaker 4>we all like to complain about it, but I am

103
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:49.720
<v Speaker 4>not gonna lie. I would I would like I would

104
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:52.920
<v Speaker 4>pay ten dollars for a slice of octagon pizza. Okay, yeah,

105
00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:55.560
<v Speaker 4>ten dollars I would pay. I would pay ten dollars

106
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:59.839
<v Speaker 4>for that. For that mashed potato with the meat gravy Sonic,

107
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:04.519
<v Speaker 4>that was my favorite. I always got an extra patty.

108
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:05.879
<v Speaker 4>I was in tight with the lunch lady.

109
00:06:05.879 --> 00:06:07.399
<v Speaker 5>I thought it was so good and they would give

110
00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:08.920
<v Speaker 5>me whenever it was something I really loved.

111
00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:11.839
<v Speaker 4>We didn't actually have the patties. They just ground up

112
00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:14.279
<v Speaker 4>the beasts and then put it in brown gravy and

113
00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:17.560
<v Speaker 4>then scooped it over mashed potatoes. Oh, I can taste

114
00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:20.600
<v Speaker 4>it right now. It's making my mouth water. It just

115
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:23.439
<v Speaker 4>made me think we had exactly like we all like

116
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:25.480
<v Speaker 4>to complain about it, but that food and those big

117
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:30.439
<v Speaker 4>fluffy rolls we had get about it everything. And see

118
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:32.079
<v Speaker 4>we all complained about it, but it's real food. And

119
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:34.600
<v Speaker 4>the lunch ladies, bless every one of their hearts. They

120
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:37.199
<v Speaker 4>were back there starting at six o'clock in the morning

121
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:40.000
<v Speaker 4>every morning making sure we had good food. They all

122
00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:43.639
<v Speaker 4>weighed like three hundred pounds and had boobs the size

123
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:49.240
<v Speaker 4>of Massachusetts, right, I mean, they all just massive boobs.

124
00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:51.920
<v Speaker 5>These lunches, and you know where I grew up, so like,

125
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:54.160
<v Speaker 5>oh yeah, seventy five percent. I would say, of the

126
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:57.639
<v Speaker 5>kids that went to my school relied on breakfast, that's

127
00:06:58.000 --> 00:06:58.360
<v Speaker 5>every day.

128
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:00.879
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's what they ate. Well. Well, now at my

129
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:05.959
<v Speaker 4>daughter's high school in an affluent suburb, they have pizza

130
00:07:06.040 --> 00:07:09.680
<v Speaker 4>Hut or Dominoes or something like that. They basically bring

131
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:12.639
<v Speaker 4>in prepackaged foods, so they're basically just shoving ultra process

132
00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:15.279
<v Speaker 4>foods down these kids' throat. Okay, that video is something

133
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:17.040
<v Speaker 4>you should watch. I did not mean to go down

134
00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:20.959
<v Speaker 4>the lunch room, you know, reminiscent Panwagon there for a second.

135
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:23.360
<v Speaker 4>Shout out to all the lunch ladies out there. I

136
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:28.879
<v Speaker 4>mean it, they were amazing, so amazing. Anyway, anyway, sorry

137
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:31.759
<v Speaker 4>about that. I do want to go up. We've got

138
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:34.319
<v Speaker 4>Dave Phraser coming up at twelve thirty, and I do

139
00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:36.560
<v Speaker 4>not want to start this conversation about Syria and the

140
00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:39.839
<v Speaker 4>Druze until I can go deep into it, because boy,

141
00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:42.160
<v Speaker 4>howdy did I go deep into it? Why did I

142
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:44.360
<v Speaker 4>go deep into it? Well, I got this message yesterday

143
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:48.000
<v Speaker 4>from my nephew in Israel, and I should say that

144
00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:51.560
<v Speaker 4>when we went to my my nephew's wedding in Israel.

145
00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:54.759
<v Speaker 4>He took us on a tour of well, lots of

146
00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:58.519
<v Speaker 4>lots of Israel. We went to the border of Syria

147
00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:02.560
<v Speaker 4>and Israel. Okay, I've actually seen the border of Syria

148
00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:06.319
<v Speaker 4>and Israel. And as we were driving up there, we

149
00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:09.759
<v Speaker 4>stopped and had lunch at this restaurant that was run

150
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:13.319
<v Speaker 4>by a Druze family. Okay, the Drews people d r

151
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:17.639
<v Speaker 4>O d r u Ze. Drews is a religion and

152
00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:22.079
<v Speaker 4>it is a very insular religion. Pretty Much every Druze

153
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:26.839
<v Speaker 4>is related to every other Drus. They don't proselytize. You

154
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:31.319
<v Speaker 4>cannot convert and become a Druz, you will marry another Drus.

155
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:35.679
<v Speaker 4>But at the same time, they take their civic responsibilities

156
00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:40.399
<v Speaker 4>wherever they are very very very seriously. They make up

157
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:44.320
<v Speaker 4>a large part of the Israel, Israeli Army, the police force.

158
00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:48.360
<v Speaker 4>They're the most highly educated ethnic group in Israel. They

159
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.840
<v Speaker 4>integrate everywhere. They're in the the Israeli government. They are

160
00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:59.840
<v Speaker 4>they are woven into the fabric and known to be upstanding, kind, familial,

161
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:03.919
<v Speaker 4>just good people, the kind of people you want in

162
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:07.080
<v Speaker 4>your lives. Well, there are five hundred thousand drus in Syria.

163
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:11.240
<v Speaker 4>And I got this message yesterday from my nephew in Israel,

164
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:14.159
<v Speaker 4>and he said, the Drews are the best ethnic group

165
00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:18.240
<v Speaker 4>I have ever encountered. They're polite, familial, hard working, loyal,

166
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:20.559
<v Speaker 4>and make some of the finest soldiers in the Israeli

167
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:23.919
<v Speaker 4>Special Forces. This is an actual ethnic cleansing that is

168
00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:27.320
<v Speaker 4>about to happen. Isis is selling Drew's women as sex

169
00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:30.799
<v Speaker 4>slaves in public markets and in line with their interpretation

170
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:35.879
<v Speaker 4>of Islam. Now that's what started me down this rabbit hole,

171
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:39.679
<v Speaker 4>and it is bad. And as I kept reading, every

172
00:09:39.960 --> 00:09:42.559
<v Speaker 4>so often there would be some mention of the fact

173
00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:47.200
<v Speaker 4>that the United States and Israel are trying to bring

174
00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:52.360
<v Speaker 4>the quote President of Syria into the fold. Donald Trump.

175
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:55.080
<v Speaker 4>You know, I think that we can all understand a

176
00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:58.159
<v Speaker 4>little bit better why Donald Trump appears to suck up

177
00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:01.919
<v Speaker 4>to dictators, Because he did it with Kim Jong un

178
00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:04.840
<v Speaker 4>until he realized that Kim Jong un is a psychopath

179
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:06.240
<v Speaker 4>and there was no dealing with him. And now he

180
00:10:06.279 --> 00:10:08.879
<v Speaker 4>doesn't speak of him at all. It's like he's just

181
00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:12.440
<v Speaker 4>doesn't exist. Right. He did it with Putin, and when

182
00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:14.840
<v Speaker 4>Putin did not do what Trump wanted, him to do.

183
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:18.360
<v Speaker 4>Now Trump is issuing threats. I don't think he was

184
00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:20.879
<v Speaker 4>ever truly enamored with Putin. I think he was blowing

185
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.879
<v Speaker 4>smoke up his skirt in order to see if he

186
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.639
<v Speaker 4>could bring him to the table. Well, now the smoke

187
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:28.840
<v Speaker 4>blowing is over. But now we have Trump saying, you know,

188
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:30.840
<v Speaker 4>this guy in Syria, we think he's going to be good.

189
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:34.039
<v Speaker 4>This guy in Syria is an Islamist. He is a

190
00:10:34.120 --> 00:10:38.799
<v Speaker 4>former al Qaeda leader. Now I'm not saying that he

191
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:41.559
<v Speaker 4>can't have a change of heart, and I'm not saying

192
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:45.320
<v Speaker 4>that we should work to achieve some sort of solution

193
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.039
<v Speaker 4>that doesn't involve war, Not at all. I would love

194
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:51.240
<v Speaker 4>to see all of this happen. Israel believes in it

195
00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:54.720
<v Speaker 4>so strongly that they are allegedly in backroom communications with

196
00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:57.399
<v Speaker 4>them with Siria trying to cut some kind of deal

197
00:10:57.399 --> 00:11:00.240
<v Speaker 4>to bring Syria into the Abraham Accords. But here's where

198
00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:03.240
<v Speaker 4>the problem lies. The problem lies is that they've already

199
00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:07.200
<v Speaker 4>gone into an Alloyite vision village. Alo Whites are another

200
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:11.840
<v Speaker 4>subset of Islam, and they believe in kind of a

201
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:15.600
<v Speaker 4>mystical version of Islam. And please don't use me as

202
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:19.360
<v Speaker 4>as your theology teacher. On this, I'm giving you such

203
00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:23.200
<v Speaker 4>a macro description that you can go look up more

204
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:25.440
<v Speaker 4>information about the Alo Whites or the Druz or any

205
00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:27.600
<v Speaker 4>of that stuff. You can do any of that. But

206
00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:30.120
<v Speaker 4>the Alo Whites are a subset of Islam, and they

207
00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:33.440
<v Speaker 4>practice what's considered a more mystical version of Islam, and

208
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:37.759
<v Speaker 4>therefore it's blasphemous to some other Muslims, specifically Sunni Muslims,

209
00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:41.159
<v Speaker 4>of which the new leader of Syria is he is

210
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:49.120
<v Speaker 4>a Sunni Muslim. So this guy went in in April

211
00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:51.679
<v Speaker 4>and went into an Alo White village. Under the guise

212
00:11:51.720 --> 00:11:54.360
<v Speaker 4>of this, they'll they'll allow the bed Ones to attack.

213
00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:58.440
<v Speaker 4>This is the strategy in Syria right now. So the

214
00:11:59.080 --> 00:12:01.799
<v Speaker 4>Syrian forces as they are. By the way, a lot

215
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:05.440
<v Speaker 4>of the president's army is from around the world. It's

216
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:09.600
<v Speaker 4>not from Syria. His army comes from Pakistan, his army

217
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:12.519
<v Speaker 4>comes from Chechnia, his army comes from a whole bunch

218
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:15.799
<v Speaker 4>of different Muslim strongholds. And we'll get to why that

219
00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:19.960
<v Speaker 4>is in just a minute. But he allows the Bedouins

220
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:23.200
<v Speaker 4>because you know, there's always been sectarian violence in the

221
00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:26.080
<v Speaker 4>Middle East, because we have all of these different tribes

222
00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:29.039
<v Speaker 4>and clans and things like this, and they're constantly clashing

223
00:12:29.080 --> 00:12:31.320
<v Speaker 4>with one another. The Drus and the Bedouins have been

224
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:34.480
<v Speaker 4>at it for years, just years about dumb crap. It's

225
00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:39.000
<v Speaker 4>all about dumb crap. But nonetheless, they send the Bedouins

226
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:42.360
<v Speaker 4>in to the Alloyhites to attack, and then they come

227
00:12:42.399 --> 00:12:45.759
<v Speaker 4>in and say, the governmental forces will come in and

228
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:49.159
<v Speaker 4>say we're repelling the Bedouins. We've saved you, we can

229
00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:51.120
<v Speaker 4>keep you safe. We just need you to disband your

230
00:12:51.159 --> 00:12:56.519
<v Speaker 4>militias and turn over your weapons. And guess what, after

231
00:12:56.559 --> 00:12:59.440
<v Speaker 4>being in a civil war for very, very very long

232
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:03.279
<v Speaker 4>time again an incredibly violent and repressive regime in Bashi

233
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:06.960
<v Speaker 4>al Asad, they're not really looking to give up their weapons.

234
00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:12.600
<v Speaker 4>And so in response, the Syrian military slaughtered twelve hundred

235
00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:16.480
<v Speaker 4>Ala Whites in April. This happened in April. That doesn't

236
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 4>seem that the rhetoric of the President of Syria is

237
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:21.679
<v Speaker 4>going to match the actions of the President of Syria,

238
00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:24.679
<v Speaker 4>because he talks a great game about tolerance and oh,

239
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:26.600
<v Speaker 4>everything's going to be great in Syrian We are going

240
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:31.080
<v Speaker 4>to create this great, wonderful Syria moving forward, which everybody

241
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:34.200
<v Speaker 4>would like to see by the way, but deeds not words.

242
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:37.120
<v Speaker 4>So when the Bedouins came in to mix it up

243
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:40.960
<v Speaker 4>with the Drews, well here come the security forces. Only

244
00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:44.399
<v Speaker 4>this time they fought with the Bedouins against the Drews

245
00:13:44.679 --> 00:13:46.720
<v Speaker 4>and killed I don't know, like two hundred and fifty

246
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:49.879
<v Speaker 4>people in a village. Twenty one of them were men

247
00:13:49.919 --> 00:13:54.639
<v Speaker 4>who were extra extra judiciously executed, which means the government

248
00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:56.440
<v Speaker 4>took them into the center square and shot them in

249
00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:59.639
<v Speaker 4>the head. And here we are trying to bring the

250
00:13:59.639 --> 00:14:01.879
<v Speaker 4>president of this into the fold.

251
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:02.039
<v Speaker 3>Now.

252
00:14:02.039 --> 00:14:06.240
<v Speaker 4>I posted something about this on x yesterday and a

253
00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:08.480
<v Speaker 4>lot of people were like, well, let them sort it out.

254
00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:10.919
<v Speaker 4>It doesn't really matter. I don't care, we shouldn't. I

255
00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:13.879
<v Speaker 4>don't even want us to be involved. But Israel needed

256
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:20.279
<v Speaker 4>to do something. Israel had to act because in Israel,

257
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:23.000
<v Speaker 4>and I don't know how many Drews there are in Israel,

258
00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:26.679
<v Speaker 4>but there's a good chunk of Drews in Israel. But

259
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:30.879
<v Speaker 4>they're involved in every aspect of Israeli life. They are

260
00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:33.480
<v Speaker 4>the residents you want in your community, and they cannot

261
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:38.080
<v Speaker 4>Israel cannot leave the Syrian Drews out to dry. They

262
00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:40.360
<v Speaker 4>can't do it. And right now, there's a whole bunch

263
00:14:40.440 --> 00:14:44.000
<v Speaker 4>of Syrian drus and I have to say, Drew's really

264
00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:46.080
<v Speaker 4>hard like that. So you know, I'm not saying Jews,

265
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:48.200
<v Speaker 4>but the Syrian Jews have been right now a long

266
00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:51.440
<v Speaker 4>time ago. So drus. They're in the southern part of Syria,

267
00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:55.679
<v Speaker 4>which is in the sort of demilitarized zone that Israel

268
00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:59.039
<v Speaker 4>has essentially said we are going to enforce because it

269
00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:02.279
<v Speaker 4>borders Israel. And if they allow tanks and stuff like

270
00:15:02.320 --> 00:15:04.120
<v Speaker 4>that to come into that area of the Goal On

271
00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:07.799
<v Speaker 4>Heights area, then there's a good chance that they're going

272
00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:12.519
<v Speaker 4>to keep rolling over into Israel. So Israel yesterday bombs

273
00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Speaker 4>Syrian military headquarters in Damascus. Now, the reason I'm telling

274
00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:19.600
<v Speaker 4>you all of this is I want you to watch

275
00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:22.639
<v Speaker 4>any news coverage you might see of this, because I

276
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:25.399
<v Speaker 4>have some stuff from CNN and other stuff that is

277
00:15:25.559 --> 00:15:34.360
<v Speaker 4>just so insane, so insane. So this is really fantastic.

278
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:38.240
<v Speaker 4>So Israel bombs the headquarters of Damascus to make them

279
00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:43.200
<v Speaker 4>stop attacking the Drews. That is why Israel bombed the

280
00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:47.279
<v Speaker 4>HQ of Military HQ and Damascus, And CNN says this,

281
00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:50.080
<v Speaker 4>CNN has reached out to the Israeli Defense forces for

282
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:56.000
<v Speaker 4>comment regarding civilian deaths. You guys, they already admitted that

283
00:15:56.120 --> 00:16:00.639
<v Speaker 4>people were killed by Syrian forces. Do you think they

284
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:03.639
<v Speaker 4>reached out to the president of Syria to answer for that.

285
00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:08.960
<v Speaker 4>Even when Israel is doing the right thing for good people,

286
00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:12.600
<v Speaker 4>they are blamed in a way that no other nation

287
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:17.120
<v Speaker 4>is and certainly Syria is not being held to account

288
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:19.360
<v Speaker 4>on this stuff. And what do I want Donald Trump

289
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:22.919
<v Speaker 4>to do? I want Donald Trump to use his leverage

290
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:28.320
<v Speaker 4>to explain to this guy that one more incursion against

291
00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:31.519
<v Speaker 4>an ethnic minority in Syria means that we will make

292
00:16:31.559 --> 00:16:34.360
<v Speaker 4>sure that Israel has all the bombs it needs to

293
00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:36.919
<v Speaker 4>do what needs to be done in Syria to protect

294
00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:42.639
<v Speaker 4>those people. That's what I want to have happen. You know,

295
00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:44.559
<v Speaker 4>I'd love for Donald Trump to call him and do

296
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:47.039
<v Speaker 4>the old Hey, man, we really want you to come

297
00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:50.399
<v Speaker 4>to this party, like man, cannot wait to have you,

298
00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:53.960
<v Speaker 4>so looking forward to having you as part of the team.

299
00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:57.480
<v Speaker 4>But with this kind of behavior, I don't think we

300
00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:01.360
<v Speaker 4>can be friends. You know, do the old make him

301
00:17:01.360 --> 00:17:04.720
<v Speaker 4>an offer he can't refuse type thing. But even then,

302
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:06.839
<v Speaker 4>I'm not certain that this guy can be stopped in

303
00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:10.960
<v Speaker 4>any significant way. As long as you have people in

304
00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:15.240
<v Speaker 4>charge trying to build a new Islamic caliphate. You were

305
00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:18.559
<v Speaker 4>never going to have them, you know, be a part

306
00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:21.799
<v Speaker 4>of polite society. And that is what this guy's devoted to.

307
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:24.279
<v Speaker 4>That's why you have so many foreign fighters from around

308
00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:28.279
<v Speaker 4>the world. Why in the world, from someone in Czechhni

309
00:17:28.400 --> 00:17:33.440
<v Speaker 4>or or Indonesia, why would you go Why would you

310
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:37.680
<v Speaker 4>go to fight in Syria? I mean for money, sure,

311
00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:42.680
<v Speaker 4>but it's about ideology, because they too believe that the

312
00:17:42.759 --> 00:17:45.680
<v Speaker 4>Islamic Caliphate shall rise again and the world will kneel

313
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:48.400
<v Speaker 4>at their feet. How do you reason with somebody whose

314
00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:53.359
<v Speaker 4>goal is that? How do you realize with someone whose

315
00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:55.839
<v Speaker 4>goal is that and is willing to do whatever it

316
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:58.240
<v Speaker 4>takes in terms of violence to bring it to fruition.

317
00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:04.119
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. I'm aggravated. I'm frustrated because I am

318
00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:08.279
<v Speaker 4>old enough to remember when we've propped up dictators around

319
00:18:08.359 --> 00:18:10.200
<v Speaker 4>the world, and I'm old enough to know how it

320
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:15.400
<v Speaker 4>inevitably always ends with an entire new group of people

321
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:19.079
<v Speaker 4>who hate us for meddling in their affairs. This is

322
00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:22.839
<v Speaker 4>what I want from Syria. Leave the ethnic minorities alone

323
00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:26.559
<v Speaker 4>and then go about your business. Leave them alone. If

324
00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:28.559
<v Speaker 4>you did that you could have whatever you wanted, but

325
00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:32.440
<v Speaker 4>that doesn't meet their end goal. And the United States

326
00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:34.839
<v Speaker 4>of America is going to give them the legitimacy that

327
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:39.880
<v Speaker 4>they need along with Israel to do the things that

328
00:18:39.920 --> 00:18:43.640
<v Speaker 4>they are inevitably going to do. And it's like, when

329
00:18:43.880 --> 00:18:46.279
<v Speaker 4>in the world are we going to see that this

330
00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:51.039
<v Speaker 4>is just untenable. I don't know what the answer is.

331
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:55.880
<v Speaker 4>I think the Middle East is a permanent disaster because

332
00:18:55.880 --> 00:18:59.359
<v Speaker 4>of ideology, culture. There's so many different things that need

333
00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:01.839
<v Speaker 4>to be dragged into modernity in the Middle East before

334
00:19:01.880 --> 00:19:05.640
<v Speaker 4>it's ever going to be anything other than a sandpit

335
00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:07.920
<v Speaker 4>where people are fighting over land so ugly that we

336
00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:11.839
<v Speaker 4>wouldn't even pay for it here in America anyway. So

337
00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:13.799
<v Speaker 4>that's the start of my rant. We're not even deep

338
00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:21.039
<v Speaker 4>into it. Oh yeah, oh yeah. AnyWho got some text

339
00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:24.119
<v Speaker 4>messages Mandy. Theocrats speak with a forked tongue because they

340
00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:27.440
<v Speaker 4>try to straddle the fence between God's law and man's law.

341
00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:30.160
<v Speaker 4>The problem is is Islama see that as the same

342
00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:36.799
<v Speaker 4>law right? That's the issue. Mandy Tyrants and leaders share

343
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:39.240
<v Speaker 4>similar qualities, which makes it hard to tell the difference

344
00:19:39.240 --> 00:19:41.640
<v Speaker 4>at times until you get to know them and to

345
00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:44.880
<v Speaker 4>the text, who ask what religion are Drus they're a

346
00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:49.319
<v Speaker 4>mix of Islam, of Christianity, of Judaism. They are a

347
00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:52.920
<v Speaker 4>large mishmash. But they've been around a very very long time,

348
00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:55.519
<v Speaker 4>very long time. But I don't think they would say

349
00:19:55.519 --> 00:19:58.440
<v Speaker 4>they were any of those three religions. Even though there

350
00:19:58.440 --> 00:20:03.240
<v Speaker 4>are lots of things that overlap. Fox thirty one's chief meteorologist,

351
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:05.680
<v Speaker 4>Day Fraser, ain't Day Fraser. What about this dug and

352
00:20:05.880 --> 00:20:08.559
<v Speaker 4>bloomy skies today? What's happening?

353
00:20:09.640 --> 00:20:11.799
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, that NICs re freshing change. Thanks for a cool

354
00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:14.759
<v Speaker 6>front last night. So instead of baking at ninety five

355
00:20:14.839 --> 00:20:16.960
<v Speaker 6>like we did yesterday, we'll only pop out in the

356
00:20:17.599 --> 00:20:20.279
<v Speaker 6>in the mid eighties today. So that's that's the benefit

357
00:20:20.319 --> 00:20:22.440
<v Speaker 6>of the dark and gloomy skies out there. But the

358
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:24.559
<v Speaker 6>price that comes with it is a chance for showers

359
00:20:24.559 --> 00:20:28.559
<v Speaker 6>and thunderstorms, some of which we'll have lightning and wind

360
00:20:28.640 --> 00:20:32.119
<v Speaker 6>and hail typical threats, and so we'll watch for that

361
00:20:32.240 --> 00:20:35.200
<v Speaker 6>this afternoon. But the humidity level is higher today, I'm

362
00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:38.160
<v Speaker 6>sure everybody by Colorado standards just about that, and that

363
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:41.400
<v Speaker 6>can lead to heavy rain but hopefully beneficial range. So

364
00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:43.759
<v Speaker 6>there's a there's a trade out right, maybe keep the

365
00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:46.119
<v Speaker 6>hail on the small side. We don't get any damage,

366
00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:48.359
<v Speaker 6>but we can ring out some rain this with this

367
00:20:48.440 --> 00:20:50.160
<v Speaker 6>higher humidity, and that's what I'm hoping for.

368
00:20:50.440 --> 00:20:52.559
<v Speaker 4>Well, let me give out the text number if people

369
00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:55.079
<v Speaker 4>have weather questions. Now's the time, five sixty six nine.

370
00:20:55.160 --> 00:20:58.319
<v Speaker 4>Oh is who you text? Yesterday? I was driving home

371
00:20:58.400 --> 00:21:00.160
<v Speaker 4>and I was all excited because I was driving to

372
00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:03.920
<v Speaker 4>really like healthy rain, right, good rain, And then drove

373
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:05.680
<v Speaker 4>into my neighborhood and not a drop and I was like,

374
00:21:05.799 --> 00:21:07.599
<v Speaker 4>dang it, Now I got to water on my plants.

375
00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.680
<v Speaker 4>So how scattered are these showers? When are we I mean,

376
00:21:12.160 --> 00:21:14.079
<v Speaker 4>when are we going to see like a solid line

377
00:21:14.079 --> 00:21:15.880
<v Speaker 4>where I know I'm going to get rain? When am

378
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:16.519
<v Speaker 4>I going to get that?

379
00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:21.920
<v Speaker 6>You know, when we're dealing with storms of convective nature,

380
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:24.720
<v Speaker 6>you know, it just depends where the first ones go up.

381
00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:27.960
<v Speaker 6>And then we always talk about outflow boundaries. When the

382
00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:30.799
<v Speaker 6>thunderstorms are kind of dying, they can throw a gush

383
00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:33.079
<v Speaker 6>of wind across the ground and that can be a

384
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:37.920
<v Speaker 6>focal point for additional development. Those things, even the highest

385
00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:40.079
<v Speaker 6>resolution models don't do a good job picking up on,

386
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:42.559
<v Speaker 6>so you kind of have to watch the radar real time.

387
00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:45.079
<v Speaker 6>I will tell you if you're going to get your

388
00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:47.799
<v Speaker 6>rain up and down the front range. As I'm looking

389
00:21:47.880 --> 00:21:51.759
<v Speaker 6>at our high resolution models, it's going to start. The

390
00:21:51.880 --> 00:21:54.160
<v Speaker 6>clouds are going to delay the start because they're delayed

391
00:21:54.200 --> 00:21:56.920
<v Speaker 6>the heating, So obviously heating is a component to get

392
00:21:56.920 --> 00:21:59.839
<v Speaker 6>the storms going. I'm thinking we're going to be somewhere

393
00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:02.400
<v Speaker 6>in the to the three o'clock start. I think the

394
00:22:02.440 --> 00:22:06.000
<v Speaker 6>best window goes till about five o'clock, and by five

395
00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:08.599
<v Speaker 6>to six they're starting to push past the airport and

396
00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:10.640
<v Speaker 6>go onto the eastern planes. So if you're going to

397
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:13.480
<v Speaker 6>get the rain, you're gonna have to see it by

398
00:22:13.599 --> 00:22:15.799
<v Speaker 6>five to six. If you haven't seen it by five

399
00:22:15.839 --> 00:22:18.319
<v Speaker 6>to six, your only hope would be that an outflow

400
00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:21.400
<v Speaker 6>boundary comes back in your direction. But chances for that

401
00:22:21.480 --> 00:22:22.960
<v Speaker 6>in this type of environment are going to be on

402
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:26.400
<v Speaker 6>the very low side. So that's your window coverage is

403
00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:29.359
<v Speaker 6>about sixty percent Mandy. So I know a lot of

404
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:31.279
<v Speaker 6>people think that that means though there's a pretty good

405
00:22:31.359 --> 00:22:33.839
<v Speaker 6>chance you know that you'll get rain, it's decent. It

406
00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:35.680
<v Speaker 6>means a lot more of us have a better chance

407
00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:37.160
<v Speaker 6>of seeing it, But it's not one hundred percent.

408
00:22:37.319 --> 00:22:41.000
<v Speaker 4>All right, So we got a couple of questions, and funny,

409
00:22:42.160 --> 00:22:46.599
<v Speaker 4>I have three different questions from three different textures, and

410
00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:50.000
<v Speaker 4>they are all about the use of the word land spout.

411
00:22:50.079 --> 00:22:51.480
<v Speaker 4>Let me read them all to you in one one,

412
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:53.920
<v Speaker 4>little fellow swoop here, Hi, Mandy, can you ask Dave

413
00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:57.119
<v Speaker 4>what a land spout is? Mandy? For Dave, difference between

414
00:22:57.119 --> 00:23:00.880
<v Speaker 4>a land spout and a dust devil May Wednesday question.

415
00:23:01.000 --> 00:23:03.880
<v Speaker 4>Please ask Dave when and why did they start calling

416
00:23:03.920 --> 00:23:07.559
<v Speaker 4>tornadoes land falts. So let's clear the air on landsfalts,

417
00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:09.359
<v Speaker 4>shall we yep?

418
00:23:09.960 --> 00:23:12.759
<v Speaker 6>So let me start with the lower end, the dust devil.

419
00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:17.240
<v Speaker 6>The dust devil is exactly that. As the ground heats,

420
00:23:18.119 --> 00:23:22.240
<v Speaker 6>the air rises, and if it heats in a finite area,

421
00:23:22.440 --> 00:23:24.200
<v Speaker 6>you can get the air to rise and kind of

422
00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:28.079
<v Speaker 6>swirl a little bit. Generally, a dust devil doesn't do much,

423
00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:31.039
<v Speaker 6>and it doesn't connect to the upper atmosphere, and it

424
00:23:31.079 --> 00:23:33.559
<v Speaker 6>only lasts as long as it's over that heated source

425
00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:36.400
<v Speaker 6>and then it dies away. So if a dust devil

426
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:38.279
<v Speaker 6>comes up and it moves over an area that's cooler,

427
00:23:38.279 --> 00:23:41.440
<v Speaker 6>it's just going to die out. The next one would

428
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:45.000
<v Speaker 6>be the land spout and land spout. Tornadoes and that's

429
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:48.599
<v Speaker 6>the frase you'll hear us use are defined as tornadoes.

430
00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:52.759
<v Speaker 6>It's just that they form in a different way. So

431
00:23:52.880 --> 00:23:56.680
<v Speaker 6>a tornado is generally associated with a large thunderstorm or

432
00:23:56.599 --> 00:24:01.839
<v Speaker 6>a cumulomid. This cloud, the whole storm is rotating, and

433
00:24:01.880 --> 00:24:05.440
<v Speaker 6>the tornado drops from the center of the storm down

434
00:24:05.519 --> 00:24:09.039
<v Speaker 6>to the ground, and that rotating column of air can

435
00:24:09.119 --> 00:24:11.279
<v Speaker 6>be violent, and as we know, we have categories for

436
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:14.319
<v Speaker 6>them or a zero one two through the EP scale

437
00:24:14.319 --> 00:24:16.240
<v Speaker 6>that we talked about all the time. And the stronger

438
00:24:16.279 --> 00:24:17.960
<v Speaker 6>the wind, the more damage you're going to have. The

439
00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:20.799
<v Speaker 6>storms can be very large. We don't tend to see them.

440
00:24:20.960 --> 00:24:23.359
<v Speaker 6>Most of colorado deals with the F zero EF one.

441
00:24:23.480 --> 00:24:26.839
<v Speaker 6>They don't last all that long. A land spout is

442
00:24:26.920 --> 00:24:30.000
<v Speaker 6>in essence, a dust devil that starts on the ground

443
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:34.759
<v Speaker 6>because of heating or swirling wind, and as a thunderstorm

444
00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:38.559
<v Speaker 6>is growing, just starting to develop, it acts like a

445
00:24:38.599 --> 00:24:42.319
<v Speaker 6>suction or a vacuum, and it stucks that rotation up

446
00:24:42.599 --> 00:24:44.640
<v Speaker 6>and connects it with the cloud and gives it a

447
00:24:44.640 --> 00:24:47.119
<v Speaker 6>little more spin up, and so it grows from a

448
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:50.000
<v Speaker 6>different direction. Now, the lamp spout that did the damage

449
00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:53.559
<v Speaker 6>in Franktown yesterday. Most lamp spouts do not do damage.

450
00:24:54.000 --> 00:24:56.359
<v Speaker 6>They last very they don't last very long, and their

451
00:24:56.440 --> 00:24:59.000
<v Speaker 6>steeds are very very low. But I mean you don't

452
00:24:59.000 --> 00:25:01.279
<v Speaker 6>want to be in one. I mean you feeling you've

453
00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:04.000
<v Speaker 6>been stung by bees. The one that hit frank Down

454
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:05.720
<v Speaker 6>came up and hit the corner of a building. It

455
00:25:05.720 --> 00:25:07.880
<v Speaker 6>looks like it took a roof off of a commercial property.

456
00:25:08.599 --> 00:25:13.559
<v Speaker 6>That one only lasted ninety seconds, But ninety seconds enough.

457
00:25:13.720 --> 00:25:16.240
<v Speaker 6>Here's the problem when it comes to land spouts. The

458
00:25:16.359 --> 00:25:19.400
<v Speaker 6>radar the start at the ground. The radar cannot point

459
00:25:19.400 --> 00:25:23.240
<v Speaker 6>directly to the ground radar right, so the radar is

460
00:25:23.279 --> 00:25:26.039
<v Speaker 6>pointing over the horizon. So the farther out you get

461
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:28.599
<v Speaker 6>from the radar, the beam is getting higher and higher

462
00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:30.759
<v Speaker 6>and higher off the ground because of the curvature of Burey.

463
00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:33.359
<v Speaker 6>So because the radar is not pointed at the ground,

464
00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:35.640
<v Speaker 6>it's pointed more in the middle aspect of the storms,

465
00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:38.119
<v Speaker 6>where we can see the rotation. You don't get the

466
00:25:38.160 --> 00:25:42.000
<v Speaker 6>notification of anything happening until it grows tall enough that

467
00:25:42.039 --> 00:25:43.920
<v Speaker 6>it might be able to be seen by radar. So,

468
00:25:43.960 --> 00:25:46.720
<v Speaker 6>in essence, we can be blind in those respects. When

469
00:25:46.759 --> 00:25:50.440
<v Speaker 6>it comes to the technology, once it connects, it can

470
00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:53.279
<v Speaker 6>grow tall, and generally the base of the thunderstorm is

471
00:25:53.279 --> 00:25:55.039
<v Speaker 6>way up high, and sometimes you'll be able to see

472
00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:57.720
<v Speaker 6>it growing up, and it does visually look like a tornado.

473
00:25:57.799 --> 00:25:58.920
<v Speaker 6>It's just a different formation.

474
00:25:59.240 --> 00:26:01.039
<v Speaker 4>But does it ever be come a tornado or is

475
00:26:01.079 --> 00:26:03.599
<v Speaker 4>it always a land spout and it's always a tornado

476
00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:04.720
<v Speaker 4>based on how they start?

477
00:26:05.839 --> 00:26:08.160
<v Speaker 6>Now, it's because of the way it started. It's not

478
00:26:08.319 --> 00:26:11.240
<v Speaker 6>going to the storm that's generating. It is not the

479
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:16.200
<v Speaker 6>typical formation of a classic rotating comberstorm. It's basically the

480
00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:19.319
<v Speaker 6>thunderstorm is growing and the air going into the thunderstorm

481
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:22.000
<v Speaker 6>is kind of drawing up that land spout, if you will.

482
00:26:22.200 --> 00:26:25.440
<v Speaker 6>The cloud itself is not generating the rotation and the spent.

483
00:26:25.720 --> 00:26:29.480
<v Speaker 4>Okay, so it sounds to me as a Floridian. A

484
00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:31.960
<v Speaker 4>land spout is the same as a water spout on

485
00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:33.880
<v Speaker 4>the water, So.

486
00:26:35.079 --> 00:26:38.119
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, it can be. But sometimes water stocks can be

487
00:26:38.279 --> 00:26:40.680
<v Speaker 6>tornadoes that form over water, and they define them as

488
00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:42.599
<v Speaker 6>water stops because they're over water.

489
00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:45.559
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I've actually been in the Gulf. Yeah, I've been

490
00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:47.799
<v Speaker 4>in the Gulf of Mexico on a small boat when

491
00:26:47.799 --> 00:26:49.599
<v Speaker 4>I watched the land spout form and It was one

492
00:26:49.599 --> 00:26:51.480
<v Speaker 4>of the coolest things I've ever seen in my life

493
00:26:51.759 --> 00:26:55.559
<v Speaker 4>and also super terrifying. So I didn't enjoy the as

494
00:26:55.559 --> 00:26:57.839
<v Speaker 4>we were running away from it as fast as we could,

495
00:26:57.880 --> 00:27:00.799
<v Speaker 4>but it was really fascinating to see it happen in

496
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:04.359
<v Speaker 4>real time. It was really super cool. Here's one's for you, Dave.

497
00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:06.839
<v Speaker 4>Ask Dave if a dust devil is related to the

498
00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:07.839
<v Speaker 4>Tasmanian devil?

499
00:27:09.960 --> 00:27:13.279
<v Speaker 6>Yea or the vice versa. Yes, the Tasmanian devil is

500
00:27:13.319 --> 00:27:16.079
<v Speaker 6>related to the dust level. Yeah, because dust devils. We

501
00:27:16.119 --> 00:27:18.720
<v Speaker 6>all know the cartoon, right, Yes, swirled the dust devil

502
00:27:19.079 --> 00:27:22.359
<v Speaker 6>in the cartoon, you know, bugs Bunny and the Tasmanian Devil,

503
00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:25.400
<v Speaker 6>a swirling pile of dust creating chaos. And so yeah,

504
00:27:25.559 --> 00:27:27.880
<v Speaker 6>I think it's interchangeable. Which came first the chicken of

505
00:27:27.920 --> 00:27:28.880
<v Speaker 6>the egg? I can't tell you.

506
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:30.680
<v Speaker 4>This is a serious question.

507
00:27:31.079 --> 00:27:31.759
<v Speaker 2>They need.

508
00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:36.039
<v Speaker 4>The smoke here on the western slope is awful. Please

509
00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:38.119
<v Speaker 4>ask Dave if there's any relief coming dust in the

510
00:27:38.160 --> 00:27:41.279
<v Speaker 4>next week. We've got some big fire fires burning on

511
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:44.319
<v Speaker 4>the western slope the border of Utah. Is there any

512
00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:46.279
<v Speaker 4>rain coming to give any relief from that?

513
00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:50.599
<v Speaker 6>You know? Unfortunately, the long range outlook for the next

514
00:27:50.599 --> 00:27:53.039
<v Speaker 6>six to ten days. Does keep the western slope dry.

515
00:27:53.160 --> 00:27:56.240
<v Speaker 6>They struggle at this time of the year. We're benefiting

516
00:27:56.279 --> 00:27:58.400
<v Speaker 6>from a cold front that came in from the gas

517
00:27:58.519 --> 00:28:00.279
<v Speaker 6>last night. They did not make it up and over

518
00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:02.400
<v Speaker 6>the mountains to the west. So while there will be

519
00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:07.519
<v Speaker 6>spotty storms over the west, for instance, the San Juans tomorrow,

520
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:09.640
<v Speaker 6>the San Juan Mountains in the southwest, we'll get some

521
00:28:09.759 --> 00:28:13.759
<v Speaker 6>small storms out there, I don't see a huge relief coming.

522
00:28:13.799 --> 00:28:17.400
<v Speaker 6>I don't see a widespread rain event enough to you know,

523
00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:21.079
<v Speaker 6>put the fires out. The hope with the smoke might

524
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:23.160
<v Speaker 6>be that if we can get a little wind to

525
00:28:23.319 --> 00:28:25.079
<v Speaker 6>stir it and get it up in the way. They

526
00:28:25.079 --> 00:28:27.640
<v Speaker 6>do have their quality alerts right now for the west

527
00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:29.839
<v Speaker 6>and southwest part of the state because of the smoke.

528
00:28:30.599 --> 00:28:32.839
<v Speaker 6>It's unfortunate, but that part of the state we've talked

529
00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:35.319
<v Speaker 6>about it for months and months and months, is the

530
00:28:35.440 --> 00:28:37.279
<v Speaker 6>part of the state. The eastern half of the state

531
00:28:37.359 --> 00:28:39.480
<v Speaker 6>has no drought. The western half of the state is

532
00:28:39.480 --> 00:28:42.559
<v Speaker 6>still druggling in drought. And the trade off for rain

533
00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:45.279
<v Speaker 6>chances may come with lightning, and that of course can

534
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:49.119
<v Speaker 6>spark additional fires. I mean, we've seen the news you

535
00:28:49.119 --> 00:28:54.680
<v Speaker 6>know what's happening down in the Grand Canyon area in Arizona.

536
00:28:54.839 --> 00:28:57.160
<v Speaker 6>You know, unfortunate to see that the lodge was lost

537
00:28:57.160 --> 00:28:59.480
<v Speaker 6>and stuff. So the West is struggling a little bit.

538
00:28:59.559 --> 00:29:01.480
<v Speaker 6>I just don't see a big enough storm right now

539
00:29:01.559 --> 00:29:04.440
<v Speaker 6>to help. But any wind can help disperse the smoke,

540
00:29:04.519 --> 00:29:06.400
<v Speaker 6>and that would be my hope, is that maybe we

541
00:29:06.519 --> 00:29:08.359
<v Speaker 6>get the smoke up in a way so that they

542
00:29:08.359 --> 00:29:10.599
<v Speaker 6>don't have to deal with the poor air quality and smell.

543
00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:13.400
<v Speaker 4>Uh. Dave Frasier, Joy as always, my friend. We'll talk

544
00:29:13.400 --> 00:29:14.079
<v Speaker 4>to you next week.

545
00:29:14.920 --> 00:29:17.119
<v Speaker 6>Yep. Have a great rest of your week. You do.

546
00:29:17.240 --> 00:29:19.839
<v Speaker 4>That is Dave Fraser from Box thirty one, and we'll

547
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:23.240
<v Speaker 4>be right back. Several of you are pointing out in

548
00:29:23.319 --> 00:29:27.079
<v Speaker 4>certain ways something similar to this, Mandy, it's the Gulf

549
00:29:27.119 --> 00:29:30.720
<v Speaker 4>of America, not the Gulf of Mexico. Trumpy Trump is

550
00:29:30.759 --> 00:29:32.759
<v Speaker 4>gonna get mad at you. I would like to point

551
00:29:32.759 --> 00:29:35.039
<v Speaker 4>out that not only do I still call it the

552
00:29:35.039 --> 00:29:38.119
<v Speaker 4>Gulf of Mexico, I still refer to Mount Evans as

553
00:29:38.119 --> 00:29:42.000
<v Speaker 4>Mount Evans. When people change names of something I already

554
00:29:42.039 --> 00:29:44.000
<v Speaker 4>know the name of in a fit of peak, I'm

555
00:29:44.039 --> 00:29:46.279
<v Speaker 4>not going to be bothered to learn the new one. Okay,

556
00:29:47.319 --> 00:29:50.119
<v Speaker 4>I said this when he changed the name, and it's

557
00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:53.279
<v Speaker 4>not in any way, shape or form a commentary or

558
00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:56.440
<v Speaker 4>any sort of judgment on Trump deciding to do that.

559
00:29:56.799 --> 00:29:59.359
<v Speaker 4>I'm just letting you know I'm not going to change

560
00:29:59.359 --> 00:30:03.440
<v Speaker 4>what I'm saying. Okay, That's just how it is. I

561
00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:05.480
<v Speaker 4>don't have time to learn something new about something I

562
00:30:05.519 --> 00:30:08.400
<v Speaker 4>don't really care about, so it will always be Mount Evans.

563
00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:10.359
<v Speaker 4>To me, it will always be the Gulf of Mexico.

564
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:14.279
<v Speaker 4>Have you ever had to learn all of the countries

565
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:17.359
<v Speaker 4>in Africa? And I'm very specific about using the African

566
00:30:17.400 --> 00:30:20.319
<v Speaker 4>continent as an example, because they are the most guilty

567
00:30:20.359 --> 00:30:23.160
<v Speaker 4>of this, although it does happen in other places. When

568
00:30:23.200 --> 00:30:25.039
<v Speaker 4>I was a kid, I had to learn a map

569
00:30:25.079 --> 00:30:28.160
<v Speaker 4>of Africa, right, I had to learn the countries in Africa.

570
00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:33.240
<v Speaker 4>I knew them all, and like fast forward seven years

571
00:30:33.319 --> 00:30:37.400
<v Speaker 4>later in my academic journey, I am somehow responsible for

572
00:30:37.480 --> 00:30:41.359
<v Speaker 4>knowing countries in Africa again, and I'm like, I got this,

573
00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:45.720
<v Speaker 4>except like half the names had changed, and I just thought,

574
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:49.680
<v Speaker 4>I can't be bothered. And to this day, I may

575
00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:52.400
<v Speaker 4>know that a country has two different names, but I

576
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:55.640
<v Speaker 4>won't know which one it is. Currently No clue, you

577
00:30:55.680 --> 00:30:57.880
<v Speaker 4>know why, because I don't live in Africa. Like if

578
00:30:57.880 --> 00:31:00.519
<v Speaker 4>the states started changing their names, I would probably try

579
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:02.480
<v Speaker 4>to keep up. Like if all all of a sudden,

580
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:04.759
<v Speaker 4>Alabama was like, you know what, we're tired of being first,

581
00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:08.880
<v Speaker 4>We're going to be Salabama from now on. Probably not,

582
00:31:09.359 --> 00:31:12.400
<v Speaker 4>I mean I would do my best to remember Zalabama.

583
00:31:12.559 --> 00:31:14.480
<v Speaker 4>That would be kind of cool, you know what I mean,

584
00:31:15.279 --> 00:31:18.640
<v Speaker 4>Like a little zip zip bang for Alabama. We've been

585
00:31:18.680 --> 00:31:20.799
<v Speaker 4>first all these years. We're going to see how the

586
00:31:20.799 --> 00:31:27.559
<v Speaker 4>other end of the alphabet feels. Salabama, hire me for

587
00:31:27.680 --> 00:31:34.839
<v Speaker 4>more marketing strategies. Okay, there you go. Anyway. Yeah, I'm

588
00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:37.559
<v Speaker 4>not doing it to be uh obnoxious. I'm really not.

589
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:41.599
<v Speaker 4>It's just that's uh no. I know, when my grandmother

590
00:31:41.720 --> 00:31:46.279
<v Speaker 4>was alive, my grandmother was a wonderful woman, not my

591
00:31:46.359 --> 00:31:50.960
<v Speaker 4>crazy one, my other normal one. And she would give directions.

592
00:31:51.240 --> 00:31:53.400
<v Speaker 4>And when my ex husband and I moved closer to

593
00:31:53.440 --> 00:31:56.160
<v Speaker 4>my hometown, he didn't know where anything was, so we wouldn't.

594
00:31:56.200 --> 00:31:58.119
<v Speaker 4>I tried to spend a lot of time with my grandmother,

595
00:31:58.160 --> 00:32:00.640
<v Speaker 4>and uh we'd go over to my grand mother's house

596
00:32:00.640 --> 00:32:03.599
<v Speaker 4>and my ex husband would ask her where something was,

597
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:05.480
<v Speaker 4>you know, like oh that sounds good. Where we should go?

598
00:32:05.519 --> 00:32:05.759
<v Speaker 6>Try that?

599
00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:08.119
<v Speaker 4>Where is that? And she would give directions. It would

600
00:32:08.119 --> 00:32:12.160
<v Speaker 4>be like, okay, go down pass where the old kmart was,

601
00:32:13.079 --> 00:32:16.920
<v Speaker 4>Like that Camart hadn't been a kmart in like eighteen years,

602
00:32:17.000 --> 00:32:19.720
<v Speaker 4>and she's selling my husband, who just moved there, Go

603
00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:22.880
<v Speaker 4>down where pass where the old kmart was. And then

604
00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:25.559
<v Speaker 4>when you get down to where morel Salvage used to be,

605
00:32:25.799 --> 00:32:31.279
<v Speaker 4>like everything was landmarks that didn't exist anymore. And to

606
00:32:31.400 --> 00:32:35.160
<v Speaker 4>my ex husband's credit, he would listen very attentively, and

607
00:32:35.200 --> 00:32:37.519
<v Speaker 4>then when we left, he's like, where is she talking about?

608
00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:41.480
<v Speaker 4>And I would explain to him what was there now? Oh, okay,

609
00:32:41.480 --> 00:32:43.640
<v Speaker 4>you know where this is now? Okay, yes, right there,

610
00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:45.960
<v Speaker 4>that's what that used to be. So he had to

611
00:32:46.039 --> 00:32:49.319
<v Speaker 4>learn where things were and where they used to be,

612
00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:51.960
<v Speaker 4>just so we could get directions from my grandmother. And

613
00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:53.920
<v Speaker 4>that's kind of how I feel now. I am my

614
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:57.400
<v Speaker 4>grandmother and I don't care that that old kmart has

615
00:32:57.440 --> 00:32:59.839
<v Speaker 4>been a government office for the last, you know, thirty

616
00:32:59.880 --> 00:33:02.559
<v Speaker 4>five years. It will always be the old kmart to me.

617
00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:07.359
<v Speaker 4>Gulf of Mexico. It's just a thing, you guys. I

618
00:33:07.359 --> 00:33:10.680
<v Speaker 4>can't help it. It's been the Gulf of Mexico since

619
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:13.920
<v Speaker 4>fifteen fifty, says this text, way before the US was

620
00:33:13.960 --> 00:33:18.480
<v Speaker 4>even a thing. Yeah, I don't care. I just I

621
00:33:18.519 --> 00:33:21.839
<v Speaker 4>don't care. I really don't. I still call Stapleton Stapleton,

622
00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:24.519
<v Speaker 4>not whatever it's been renamed. I still call it Stapleton.

623
00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:27.880
<v Speaker 4>And I'm a transplant. I don't even know what is

624
00:33:27.880 --> 00:33:29.720
<v Speaker 4>that area called now, Grant? Do you know what do

625
00:33:29.759 --> 00:33:32.839
<v Speaker 4>they rename it? Is that like Central Park? But isn't

626
00:33:32.839 --> 00:33:37.960
<v Speaker 4>there a Central Park in the eastern part. I drove

627
00:33:38.000 --> 00:33:41.640
<v Speaker 4>through an area kind of in the Littleton area that

628
00:33:41.759 --> 00:33:43.440
<v Speaker 4>I thought it was called Central Park two, and I'm like,

629
00:33:43.480 --> 00:33:46.599
<v Speaker 4>don't we have two of these generically renamed things.

630
00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:50.079
<v Speaker 5>The Stapleton neighborhood is now officially called Central Park. The

631
00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:52.720
<v Speaker 5>name change was the result of a vote by residents

632
00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:53.519
<v Speaker 5>in twenty twenty.

633
00:33:53.880 --> 00:33:58.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and a bunch of do gooders, stupid do gooders,

634
00:33:58.480 --> 00:34:00.200
<v Speaker 4>not that we had anything else to be focused out

635
00:34:00.920 --> 00:34:05.240
<v Speaker 4>to this texture. Mandy, it's k Martz plural. You are correct,

636
00:34:05.839 --> 00:34:08.840
<v Speaker 4>what Dawn by the old K marts. I've never heard

637
00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:10.960
<v Speaker 4>it called k Martz. Well that's because you're not from

638
00:34:10.960 --> 00:34:17.000
<v Speaker 4>the south. The kts what. Oh, yeah, for sure A

639
00:34:17.079 --> 00:34:20.079
<v Speaker 4>coke is always whatever cola beverage comes out of the spout.

640
00:34:20.119 --> 00:34:20.880
<v Speaker 4>You just call it a coke.

641
00:34:20.960 --> 00:34:24.360
<v Speaker 5>But it's not really called k Marts. It's k Mart, right,

642
00:34:24.400 --> 00:34:26.440
<v Speaker 5>it is Kmarts. Okay, now I'm just kidding.

643
00:34:28.039 --> 00:34:32.360
<v Speaker 4>Uh this textter said Zalabama could trade with Ioming. See

644
00:34:32.440 --> 00:34:35.920
<v Speaker 4>now we're cooking with gas, folks. It's getting good right

645
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:36.480
<v Speaker 4>up and here.

00:35:23.239 --> 00:35:25.679
<v Speaker 4>that is no disrespect to Colorado's morning news. This is

657
00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:28.519
<v Speaker 4>just about the time slot. Yes, all about the time

658

659
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:35.480
<v Speaker 4>of constitution to be able to enjoy the morning radio schedule.

660
00:35:35.519 --> 00:35:36.960
<v Speaker 4>And I have friends who love it.

661
00:35:37.159 --> 00:35:40.280
<v Speaker 5>I did it for about six months, and I about

662
00:35:40.320 --> 00:35:42.519
<v Speaker 5>month four I really started to enjoy it, and then

663
00:35:42.519 --> 00:35:44.639
<v Speaker 5>of course my schedule change correct.

664
00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:48.239

<v Speaker 4>it is happy to be here multiple people. Mandy, please

667
00:35:56.880 --> 00:35:58.480
<v Speaker 4>just do what you're told and call it the Golf

668
00:35:58.519 --> 00:36:01.719
<v Speaker 4>of America. Thank you. I will not. I think one

669
00:36:01.800 --> 00:36:05.199
<v Speaker 4>thing you should know about your talk show host is

670
00:36:05.239 --> 00:36:09.760
<v Speaker 4>that I can be incredibly stubborn. Mandy. I agree with

671
00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:11.800
<v Speaker 4>your sticking to the original names of places, but I

672
00:36:11.840 --> 00:36:14.880
<v Speaker 4>have to admit that Gulf of America shrimp costs more

673
00:36:14.960 --> 00:36:18.000
<v Speaker 4>and taste much better than the old Gulf of Mexico shrimp.

674
00:36:18.480 --> 00:36:21.280
<v Speaker 4>Just asked Bubba gump ps. If I were red lobster

675
00:36:21.360 --> 00:36:24.159
<v Speaker 4>going bankrupt, I would definitely change the name to red, white,

676
00:36:24.159 --> 00:36:26.400
<v Speaker 4>and blue Gulf of America shrimp all you can eat,

677
00:36:26.639 --> 00:36:31.159
<v Speaker 4>except if you're a Democrat. It's a little wordy, you know.

678
00:36:31.320 --> 00:36:32.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't know how you fit all that on the sign,

679
00:36:34.039 --> 00:36:38.559
<v Speaker 4>but I hear what you're saying. Anyway, Let's talk about

680
00:36:38.599 --> 00:36:41.880
<v Speaker 4>some other stuff that's on the blog. No I want

681
00:36:41.880 --> 00:36:43.599
<v Speaker 4>to talk about. I started the show with this and

682
00:36:43.599 --> 00:36:45.119
<v Speaker 4>now I'm going to kind of expand on this just

683
00:36:45.159 --> 00:36:48.679
<v Speaker 4>a little bit more because there's an update yesterday. After

684
00:36:48.719 --> 00:36:52.760
<v Speaker 4>getting a message from my nephew that the Druze people

685
00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:57.000
<v Speaker 4>in Syria were on the verge of being ethnically cleansed

686
00:36:57.079 --> 00:37:00.360
<v Speaker 4>by the quote president of Syria, who is a former

687
00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:04.320
<v Speaker 4>Al Kaedi leader and a devowed Islamist. I started digging

688
00:37:04.320 --> 00:37:08.440
<v Speaker 4>into it, and I want to start with what the

689
00:37:08.519 --> 00:37:12.519
<v Speaker 4>Druze religion is, because we don't really have Druz people here,

690
00:37:13.840 --> 00:37:16.559
<v Speaker 4>and there are a lot in the Middle East. They

691
00:37:16.559 --> 00:37:21.000
<v Speaker 4>live primarily in Lebanon, Syria, and Israel and have for forever,

692
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:28.280
<v Speaker 4>just forever. And the Druze faith is an Abrahamic, monotheistic,

693
00:37:28.440 --> 00:37:34.039
<v Speaker 4>and syncretic religion whose main tenants assert the unity of God, reincarnation,

694
00:37:34.239 --> 00:37:38.119
<v Speaker 4>and the eternity of the soul. This is from Wikipedia.

695
00:37:39.639 --> 00:37:46.199
<v Speaker 4>Although the Druze faith develop from Islamism, they don't identify

696
00:37:46.199 --> 00:37:51.559
<v Speaker 4>as Muslims. They maintain an Arabic language. They do not intermarry.

697
00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:59.480
<v Speaker 4>Interfaith marriages are strongly discouraged. You cannot convert to become

698
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:02.639
<v Speaker 4>a Druze. It is a very insular religion, but they're

699
00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:06.000
<v Speaker 4>also very good citizens. They've been a wonderful part of Israel.

700
00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:10.880
<v Speaker 4>They are the most highly educated ethnic group in the

701
00:38:10.880 --> 00:38:14.880
<v Speaker 4>Middle East, and they play important roles in Israel, and

702
00:38:15.000 --> 00:38:18.199
<v Speaker 4>they play important roles in Syria. Because the Druz people

703
00:38:18.280 --> 00:38:21.079
<v Speaker 4>are loyal to where they are. It doesn't mean that

704
00:38:21.119 --> 00:38:23.599
<v Speaker 4>they're loyal to bad people or they're loyal to dictators.

705
00:38:23.639 --> 00:38:26.079
<v Speaker 4>But if they're somewhere, if they're going to be in Lebanon,

706
00:38:26.280 --> 00:38:28.760
<v Speaker 4>they're going to be good Lebanese citizens. If they're in Syria,

707
00:38:28.840 --> 00:38:31.320
<v Speaker 4>they're gonna be good Syrian citizens. If they're in Israel,

708
00:38:31.480 --> 00:38:35.519
<v Speaker 4>they're gonna be good Israeli citizens. And that is not

709
00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:39.960
<v Speaker 4>enough for this new leadership in Syria, who in the

710
00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:44.280
<v Speaker 4>last couple of weeks have gone into Druze areas and

711
00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:49.840
<v Speaker 4>worked with the Bedouin tribes to just massacre people. And

712
00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:53.719
<v Speaker 4>we have stories of Dru's women being sold into sex

713
00:38:53.760 --> 00:38:57.719
<v Speaker 4>slavery by Isis. I'm a story and I don't know

714
00:38:57.840 --> 00:38:59.760
<v Speaker 4>if I put it on the blog or not. I

715
00:38:59.800 --> 00:39:01.360
<v Speaker 4>don't think I did. I think I put it on

716
00:39:01.519 --> 00:39:03.920
<v Speaker 4>X and I didn't put it on my blog. A

717
00:39:03.960 --> 00:39:09.440
<v Speaker 4>story of a young yazide women. Yazdi is another religious

718
00:39:09.440 --> 00:39:14.400
<v Speaker 4>faction in the Middle East. When she was eleven years old,

719
00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:19.480
<v Speaker 4>she was kidnapped and she was sold into sex slavery

720
00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:27.679
<v Speaker 4>in Gaza. Ten years later, she was just rescued from

721
00:39:27.719 --> 00:39:32.719
<v Speaker 4>Gaza after being held in Gaza as a sex slave

722
00:39:32.880 --> 00:39:36.280
<v Speaker 4>since she was eleven. She was just reunited with her

723
00:39:36.320 --> 00:39:39.679
<v Speaker 4>family in Iraq. Do you know how she got free?

724
00:39:39.719 --> 00:39:44.559
<v Speaker 4>Her captor got killed. Any guesses on who killed him?

725
00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:48.360
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to bet Israel. And by the way, Israel

726
00:39:48.400 --> 00:39:52.280
<v Speaker 4>and Iraq have no diplomatic relations at all. So Israel

727
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:55.119
<v Speaker 4>retrieved this young woman who's now twenty one years old

728
00:39:55.519 --> 00:39:59.239
<v Speaker 4>in Gaza. They then delivered her, I think, to the

729
00:39:59.320 --> 00:40:02.079
<v Speaker 4>United States, but I'm not absolutely positive. And in the

730
00:40:02.159 --> 00:40:07.199
<v Speaker 4>United States delivered her to Iraq. What Israel facilitated getting

731
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:10.800
<v Speaker 4>this young woman home after ten years? And these are

732
00:40:10.800 --> 00:40:12.760
<v Speaker 4>the same people who are allied with the new president

733
00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:15.199
<v Speaker 4>of Syria. Why in the world would we think that

734
00:40:15.199 --> 00:40:18.519
<v Speaker 4>they would treat minorities fairly? You know, for all the

735
00:40:18.559 --> 00:40:21.079
<v Speaker 4>big talk over here in the United States about how

736
00:40:21.199 --> 00:40:23.480
<v Speaker 4>unfair our society is, and it is far from perfect.

737
00:40:23.519 --> 00:40:25.880
<v Speaker 4>I certainly don't want to put a Pollyanna spin on

738
00:40:25.920 --> 00:40:28.079
<v Speaker 4>some of the issues that we do have in this country.

739
00:40:28.239 --> 00:40:33.679
<v Speaker 4>But overall, and it's demonstrated by the men yiminy successful

740
00:40:33.719 --> 00:40:36.880
<v Speaker 4>black people and brown people in this country. When you

741
00:40:36.920 --> 00:40:40.119
<v Speaker 4>do the right thing, when you make good decisions and

742
00:40:40.159 --> 00:40:43.760
<v Speaker 4>you don't do dumb crap, you can become very, very

743
00:40:43.800 --> 00:40:47.280
<v Speaker 4>successful in this country no matter what color you are.

744
00:40:48.639 --> 00:40:49.000
<v Speaker 2>No one.

745
00:40:49.840 --> 00:40:52.679
<v Speaker 4>I shouldn't say no one, but it is no longer

746
00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:57.000
<v Speaker 4>acceptable in polite society to discriminate against someone because of

747
00:40:57.000 --> 00:40:59.440
<v Speaker 4>their ethnicity or their color, or unless they're Jewish on

748
00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:04.000
<v Speaker 4>andronic college campus. It's just not socially acceptable for most people.

749
00:41:05.159 --> 00:41:09.159
<v Speaker 4>And yet that's exactly what's going on in the Middle East.

750
00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:12.440
<v Speaker 4>So I just got this update and I want to

751
00:41:12.440 --> 00:41:15.760
<v Speaker 4>share it with you because now the Syrian government and

752
00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:21.559
<v Speaker 4>the Drew's minority have agreed to a ceasefire. And what

753
00:41:21.760 --> 00:41:25.400
<v Speaker 4>happened to inspire that ceasefire is Israel dropped a bunch

754
00:41:25.400 --> 00:41:30.039
<v Speaker 4>of bombs on Cereal. The announcement this is from the

755
00:41:30.079 --> 00:41:33.239
<v Speaker 4>AP came after Israel launched rare airstrikes in the heart

756
00:41:33.320 --> 00:41:37.119
<v Speaker 4>of Damascus, an escalation and a campaign that it said

757
00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:40.519
<v Speaker 4>was intended to defend the DRUS and push Islamic militants

758
00:41:40.559 --> 00:41:45.920
<v Speaker 4>away from its border. The Drews are a substantial community

759
00:41:45.920 --> 00:41:48.280
<v Speaker 4>in Israel as well as in Syria, and are seen

760
00:41:48.320 --> 00:41:52.559
<v Speaker 4>in Israel as a loyal minority, often serving in the military.

761
00:41:53.400 --> 00:41:58.079
<v Speaker 4>So now we have a ceasefire between the Drews and

762
00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:01.920
<v Speaker 4>the Syrians, but the UK by based war monitor Syrian

763
00:42:01.960 --> 00:42:05.480
<v Speaker 4>Observatory for Human Rights said more than three hundred people

764
00:42:05.559 --> 00:42:08.920
<v Speaker 4>had been killed as of Wednesday morning, including four children,

765
00:42:09.039 --> 00:42:12.000
<v Speaker 4>eight women, and one hundred and sixty five soldiers and

766
00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:17.440
<v Speaker 4>security forces. Notice how they don't distinguish who killed who right,

767
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:24.079
<v Speaker 4>who was killed and who did the killing, because what

768
00:42:24.119 --> 00:42:27.079
<v Speaker 4>they're leaving out is that Syrian soldiers were involved in

769
00:42:27.119 --> 00:42:33.239
<v Speaker 4>the killing. The strike in Damascus, by the way, killed

770
00:42:33.239 --> 00:42:37.239
<v Speaker 4>three people and injured thirty four. Another Israeli strike it

771
00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:42.119
<v Speaker 4>near the presidential palace in the hills outside Damascus, and

772
00:42:42.280 --> 00:42:46.400
<v Speaker 4>Israel has basically said leave them alone or we will continue.

773
00:42:46.440 --> 00:42:50.199
<v Speaker 4>So they're planning to leave them alone at least for now.

774
00:42:51.800 --> 00:42:55.800
<v Speaker 4>So I mean, it's just it's a never ending mess.

775
00:42:55.840 --> 00:42:58.360
<v Speaker 4>And again I don't want us involved in this other

776
00:42:58.440 --> 00:43:02.199
<v Speaker 4>than to have President Donald Trump, who is giving legitimacy

777
00:43:02.639 --> 00:43:06.159
<v Speaker 4>to the president of Syria right now, and I understand

778
00:43:06.159 --> 00:43:08.920
<v Speaker 4>why he's doing it, right, Like I totally get it.

779
00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:12.519
<v Speaker 4>Donald Trump wants to make a deal, and he's still

780
00:43:12.599 --> 00:43:15.440
<v Speaker 4>laboring under the illusion that these people are going to

781
00:43:15.480 --> 00:43:17.840
<v Speaker 4>honor the terms of the deal even when it's made.

782
00:43:18.039 --> 00:43:21.320
<v Speaker 4>I don't believe them. I didn't believe Iran when they

783
00:43:21.519 --> 00:43:23.639
<v Speaker 4>signed on to the nuclear deal because they wouldn't let

784
00:43:23.719 --> 00:43:26.639
<v Speaker 4>us come in and check or even other countries, not

785
00:43:26.719 --> 00:43:30.079
<v Speaker 4>even the United States. So I don't have as much faith.

786
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:33.199
<v Speaker 4>But I do understand if he can get as many

787
00:43:33.239 --> 00:43:36.559
<v Speaker 4>countries in the Middle East as possible to just recognize

788
00:43:36.679 --> 00:43:41.320
<v Speaker 4>that Israel has a right to exist, that is a

789
00:43:41.519 --> 00:43:43.760
<v Speaker 4>sea change now, whether or not as genuine, whether or

790
00:43:43.760 --> 00:43:46.639
<v Speaker 4>not at last, I don't know. I mean, put another

791
00:43:46.679 --> 00:43:49.360
<v Speaker 4>weak sauce president in the White House, and who knows

792
00:43:49.360 --> 00:43:52.320
<v Speaker 4>what will happen. There's always a dictator waiting to act

793
00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:55.159
<v Speaker 4>when they feel like the United States is rudderless when

794
00:43:55.159 --> 00:43:58.320
<v Speaker 4>it comes to foreign policy. And if rudderless doesn't describe

795
00:43:58.320 --> 00:44:01.039
<v Speaker 4>the foreign policy of the Biden administry, I do not

796
00:44:01.199 --> 00:44:07.760
<v Speaker 4>know what does. Because it accomplished nothing, zero zip. They

797
00:44:07.760 --> 00:44:11.360
<v Speaker 4>couldn't even secure our own borders, let alone expect to

798
00:44:11.400 --> 00:44:16.840
<v Speaker 4>help secure other people's borders. It's crazy, really, So that

799
00:44:17.000 --> 00:44:18.760
<v Speaker 4>is what's going on, and I'd love for you to

800
00:44:18.880 --> 00:44:22.599
<v Speaker 4>just keep your eyes peeled for information on what's going

801
00:44:22.639 --> 00:44:24.559
<v Speaker 4>on in Syria. And I said this on Ross's show.

802
00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:28.599
<v Speaker 4>My frustration about all of this comes down to one

803
00:44:28.719 --> 00:44:32.519
<v Speaker 4>very simple thing. If we elevate this guy, if we

804
00:44:32.599 --> 00:44:35.719
<v Speaker 4>somehow prop him up, if we decide that the devil

805
00:44:35.760 --> 00:44:38.159
<v Speaker 4>we know in Syria is better than the devil we don't,

806
00:44:38.519 --> 00:44:41.079
<v Speaker 4>and make this guy the guy we're hanging our hopes on,

807
00:44:41.400 --> 00:44:45.320
<v Speaker 4>it just shows that we have learned nothing from a

808
00:44:45.400 --> 00:44:49.719
<v Speaker 4>series of stunningly bad foreign policy disappointments that played out

809
00:44:50.079 --> 00:44:52.880
<v Speaker 4>over a period of decades in the Middle East, in

810
00:44:52.960 --> 00:44:57.159
<v Speaker 4>other places in Central America. I mean, at what point

811
00:44:57.199 --> 00:45:01.159
<v Speaker 4>are we going to realize we suck at picking winners

812
00:45:01.159 --> 00:45:04.440
<v Speaker 4>and losers? And a better strategy would be to look

813
00:45:04.480 --> 00:45:07.199
<v Speaker 4>at the massive five hundred thousand drus live in Syria.

814
00:45:07.239 --> 00:45:09.559
<v Speaker 4>What can we do to ensure that they will not

815
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:13.039
<v Speaker 4>turn on us? And the easiest thing would be to

816
00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:16.400
<v Speaker 4>exert influence and pressure on the Syrian president, who, by

817
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:18.559
<v Speaker 4>the way, would love to have status in the world right,

818
00:45:18.599 --> 00:45:22.960
<v Speaker 4>He would love to be considered a normal part of society.

819
00:45:24.199 --> 00:45:26.800
<v Speaker 4>So why not use that pressure to try and bring

820
00:45:26.880 --> 00:45:29.880
<v Speaker 4>him under some kind of realization that the easiest way

821
00:45:29.920 --> 00:45:32.360
<v Speaker 4>for him to remain in power is to leave the

822
00:45:32.440 --> 00:45:36.519
<v Speaker 4>drus alone, leave the Alowhites alone, let them do their

823
00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:41.519
<v Speaker 4>own thing, let them practice their faith freely, let them

824
00:45:41.559 --> 00:45:46.159
<v Speaker 4>have their lives. But that's only if the only goal

825
00:45:46.199 --> 00:45:49.719
<v Speaker 4>that he has is to be a part of normal society.

826
00:45:50.199 --> 00:45:51.719
<v Speaker 4>And I don't think that's what his goal is. I

827
00:45:51.719 --> 00:45:53.880
<v Speaker 4>think his goal is the rise of an Islamic caliphate,

828
00:45:53.920 --> 00:45:56.960
<v Speaker 4>and anybody he believes as a blasphemer is in the way,

829
00:45:57.679 --> 00:45:59.800
<v Speaker 4>which is why we in the United States have to

830
00:45:59.840 --> 00:46:02.320
<v Speaker 4>be concerned about it because guess what, you guys, do

831
00:46:02.360 --> 00:46:04.800
<v Speaker 4>you think they just want the Islamic Caliphate to be

832
00:46:04.800 --> 00:46:08.239
<v Speaker 4>in the Middle East. No, they wanted to be in Europe,

833
00:46:08.400 --> 00:46:11.920
<v Speaker 4>where over the last few years, Europe has allowed an

834
00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:17.119
<v Speaker 4>unfettered influx of military age Middle Eastern men into their countries.

835
00:46:18.119 --> 00:46:21.559
<v Speaker 4>It's not going well, by the way, They're not assimilating.

836
00:46:23.159 --> 00:46:25.920
<v Speaker 4>They're attacking young women at public pools in Germany. There

837
00:46:25.920 --> 00:46:28.639
<v Speaker 4>are costing women on the streets in France. So much

838
00:46:28.679 --> 00:46:30.760
<v Speaker 4>so and I read this and I thought it was

839
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:32.880
<v Speaker 4>a joke, and then I crossed reference to it and

840
00:46:32.920 --> 00:46:36.559
<v Speaker 4>it was real. There are women in Paris who have

841
00:46:36.679 --> 00:46:40.320
<v Speaker 4>now gotten pet pigs to walk through the streets of Paris,

842
00:46:40.320 --> 00:46:44.599
<v Speaker 4>so no Muslim men will bother them. I mean, this

843
00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:48.000
<v Speaker 4>is a culture clash of massive proportions. Only the problem

844
00:46:48.039 --> 00:46:51.119
<v Speaker 4>is is that we live in the tolerant West. If

845
00:46:51.119 --> 00:46:53.639
<v Speaker 4>somebody wants to practice the faith, I don't agree with

846
00:46:54.159 --> 00:46:57.800
<v Speaker 4>more power. I mean more power to you. I want

847
00:46:57.800 --> 00:46:59.760
<v Speaker 4>you to practice your faith as.

848
00:46:59.719 --> 00:47:00.440
<v Speaker 2>Much you want.

849
00:47:00.480 --> 00:47:03.880
<v Speaker 4>I want it to bring you great joy until it

850
00:47:03.960 --> 00:47:06.519
<v Speaker 4>starts affecting my ability to live freely and my ability

851
00:47:06.519 --> 00:47:08.400
<v Speaker 4>to practice my faith the way I want it practice.

852
00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:13.559
<v Speaker 4>That's the West. When you're an Islamist, none of that happens.

853
00:47:14.159 --> 00:47:16.880
<v Speaker 4>You're either gonna subjugate, You're gonna find or you're gonna

854
00:47:16.920 --> 00:47:18.920
<v Speaker 4>kill people who don't share the same belief system that

855
00:47:18.960 --> 00:47:24.039
<v Speaker 4>you have. And that's what's happening now. So I'd love

856
00:47:24.079 --> 00:47:26.199
<v Speaker 4>to tell you, I'd love to just operate in a vacuum.

857
00:47:26.239 --> 00:47:27.960
<v Speaker 4>And again, I'm not looking for boots on the ground.

858
00:47:27.960 --> 00:47:30.480
<v Speaker 4>I'm not looking for direct military action. But I am

859
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:33.039
<v Speaker 4>looking for us to begin the process. And I think

860
00:47:33.079 --> 00:47:37.039
<v Speaker 4>Donald Trump is established his credibility as willing to follow

861
00:47:37.079 --> 00:47:40.719
<v Speaker 4>through on threats. I think he's pretty much I don't

862
00:47:40.719 --> 00:47:43.920
<v Speaker 4>think anybody's gonna doubt him at this stage in the game.

863
00:47:46.239 --> 00:47:49.280
<v Speaker 4>So it'll use him as a tool, and when the

864
00:47:49.360 --> 00:47:52.039
<v Speaker 4>tool doesn't work, it'll blow up your nuclear facilities or

865
00:47:52.079 --> 00:47:55.559
<v Speaker 4>whatever else you have. And I realize this makes Maga

866
00:47:55.679 --> 00:47:58.519
<v Speaker 4>super upset and very unhappy. I get it. I don't

867
00:47:58.559 --> 00:48:00.840
<v Speaker 4>love it. I wish Congress had the stones to come

868
00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:02.840
<v Speaker 4>in and do some of the stuff that needs to

869
00:48:02.840 --> 00:48:05.679
<v Speaker 4>be done, but they don't. They're the most cowardly group

870
00:48:05.679 --> 00:48:08.159
<v Speaker 4>of people in the entire world, who would rather give

871
00:48:08.199 --> 00:48:10.800
<v Speaker 4>their powers to someone else than have to answer at

872
00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:15.719
<v Speaker 4>the ballot box for making a choice. It's just, it's incredible.

873
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:18.519
<v Speaker 4>It's absolutely incredible. Every time I do one of these

874
00:48:18.559 --> 00:48:21.320
<v Speaker 4>like deep dives into one aspect of Middle Eastern politics,

875
00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:24.920
<v Speaker 4>I come away even more horrified and honestly more confident.

876
00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:27.760
<v Speaker 4>The Western culture is a superior culture to what they

877
00:48:27.800 --> 00:48:33.199
<v Speaker 4>have in Syria, in Lebanon, in any of these Islamist nations.

878
00:48:33.719 --> 00:48:36.400
<v Speaker 4>Their culture is not as good as ours. Ours is

879
00:48:36.440 --> 00:48:39.559
<v Speaker 4>not perfect, but at least in hours you have the

880
00:48:39.559 --> 00:48:43.719
<v Speaker 4>freedom to do dumb things. They're dumb things will possibly

881
00:48:43.719 --> 00:48:46.920
<v Speaker 4>get you killed or excommunicated or even your family killed.

882
00:48:48.480 --> 00:48:52.000
<v Speaker 4>It's absolutely nuts, but I do wish that you would share.

883
00:48:52.039 --> 00:48:53.920
<v Speaker 4>Oh no, I do have the ZD woman's story on

884
00:48:53.920 --> 00:48:55.800
<v Speaker 4>the blog today. Let me just share the details of

885
00:48:55.840 --> 00:49:01.239
<v Speaker 4>this because the next time some young idiotic girl is

886
00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:04.639
<v Speaker 4>wearing a cafea and telling you that Israel is the problem,

887
00:49:04.679 --> 00:49:07.760
<v Speaker 4>I want you to share this with her, because these

888
00:49:07.800 --> 00:49:10.760
<v Speaker 4>people are on the same side as the people she's

889
00:49:10.800 --> 00:49:14.320
<v Speaker 4>supposedly supporting. A twenty one year old woman kidnapped by

890
00:49:14.360 --> 00:49:18.079
<v Speaker 4>ISIS fighters in Iraq in twenty fourteen was freed from

891
00:49:18.119 --> 00:49:22.840
<v Speaker 4>Gaza this week in a secret operation that involved Iraq, Israel, Jordan,

892
00:49:22.960 --> 00:49:27.280
<v Speaker 4>and the United States. The Yazidis, whose faith is rooted

893
00:49:27.679 --> 00:49:32.079
<v Speaker 4>in zoro Astrianism, mostly live in Iraq and Syria. They

894
00:49:32.119 --> 00:49:35.320
<v Speaker 4>were targeted by ISIS in Iraq Sinjar District in a

895
00:49:35.320 --> 00:49:38.400
<v Speaker 4>campaign that killed nearly ten thousand people in a matter

896
00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:42.480
<v Speaker 4>of days and saw thousands of women kidnapped, raped, or

897
00:49:42.519 --> 00:49:45.679
<v Speaker 4>abused as sex slaves. This woman was taken at the

898
00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:50.760
<v Speaker 4>age of eleven and then trafficked to Gaza. She was

899
00:49:50.800 --> 00:49:53.440
<v Speaker 4>freed after more than four months of efforts that involved

900
00:49:53.440 --> 00:49:57.320
<v Speaker 4>several attempts that failed due to the difficulty difficult security

901
00:49:57.400 --> 00:50:02.320
<v Speaker 4>situation resulting from Israel's war in Gaza. The Iraqi Ministry

902
00:50:02.320 --> 00:50:05.239
<v Speaker 4>of Foreign Affairs praise the cooperation between the US and

903
00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:08.039
<v Speaker 4>Jordan and said the girl was handed over to her

904
00:50:08.079 --> 00:50:11.880
<v Speaker 4>family this evening after returning to Iraq, and that again

905
00:50:11.960 --> 00:50:14.280
<v Speaker 4>went through the US because Israel and I Rock do

906
00:50:14.320 --> 00:50:20.960
<v Speaker 4>not share diplomatic ties. I mean, ten years, how does

907
00:50:21.000 --> 00:50:25.760
<v Speaker 4>a sex slave in Gaza? And that's the culture that

908
00:50:25.920 --> 00:50:29.000
<v Speaker 4>young women on college campuses who will freak out if

909
00:50:29.000 --> 00:50:31.599
<v Speaker 4>a guy asks them out more than once and call

910
00:50:31.639 --> 00:50:35.239
<v Speaker 4>it stalking and sexual assault. That's the team they're rooting

911
00:50:35.280 --> 00:50:38.960
<v Speaker 4>for now, is the team that sells women into sex

912
00:50:39.000 --> 00:50:42.159
<v Speaker 4>slavery and lets them sit there for ten years in Gaza.

913
00:50:42.840 --> 00:50:43.960
<v Speaker 4>I mean ugh.

914
00:50:45.480 --> 00:50:45.599
<v Speaker 1>Ugh.

915
00:50:45.719 --> 00:50:50.320
<v Speaker 4>Anyway, speaking of culture problems, let me share this story

916
00:50:50.360 --> 00:50:54.800
<v Speaker 4>with you. Hey, Grant, did you know that when you're

917
00:50:54.840 --> 00:50:58.519
<v Speaker 4>smoking your mess or fentanyl in your glass pipe, it

918
00:50:58.559 --> 00:51:01.159
<v Speaker 4>is best to keep the flame moving around the bowl

919
00:51:01.440 --> 00:51:04.280
<v Speaker 4>so you melt the drugs instead of burning them. This

920
00:51:04.400 --> 00:51:08.039
<v Speaker 4>helps prevent the pipes from cracking and waste less drugs.

921
00:51:08.119 --> 00:51:10.039
<v Speaker 4>Did you know that? I think that is something I

922
00:51:10.079 --> 00:51:12.159
<v Speaker 4>did not need to know well at all? You know

923
00:51:12.199 --> 00:51:14.679
<v Speaker 4>what that is what's being given out to drug addicts

924
00:51:15.199 --> 00:51:19.480
<v Speaker 4>by harm reduction specialists who are also handing out foil

925
00:51:19.760 --> 00:51:24.199
<v Speaker 4>and pipes for people to continue smoking the unregulated and

926
00:51:24.280 --> 00:51:27.719
<v Speaker 4>untested drugs that will probably kill a good number of them.

927
00:51:28.159 --> 00:51:31.400
<v Speaker 5>Well, I'm glad they're doing it safeer now. I et

928
00:51:31.719 --> 00:51:33.280
<v Speaker 5>not wasting any that's important.

929
00:51:33.360 --> 00:51:35.400
<v Speaker 4>I hate the concept of harm reduction because I don't

930
00:51:35.400 --> 00:51:36.960
<v Speaker 4>think it does it. I don't think it. I don't

931
00:51:36.960 --> 00:51:41.199
<v Speaker 4>think it is. I don't think harm reduction in other

932
00:51:41.280 --> 00:51:44.559
<v Speaker 4>circumstances would be this. Would you say if you knew

933
00:51:44.599 --> 00:51:48.679
<v Speaker 4>you had a friend who was a severe alcoholic severe alcoholic,

934
00:51:48.880 --> 00:51:50.719
<v Speaker 4>would you call them up and say, you know what,

935
00:51:51.719 --> 00:51:54.360
<v Speaker 4>I know that you're going to do this anyway, So

936
00:51:54.519 --> 00:51:57.000
<v Speaker 4>I don't want you to get into a car accident.

937
00:51:57.599 --> 00:51:59.199
<v Speaker 4>So I am going to come drive you to the

938
00:51:59.239 --> 00:52:02.840
<v Speaker 4>bar you can get blackout drunk, and then I'll drive

939
00:52:02.920 --> 00:52:05.159
<v Speaker 4>you home at the end of the night so you

940
00:52:05.199 --> 00:52:07.119
<v Speaker 4>don't get into a car accident on the way home.

941
00:52:07.320 --> 00:52:09.960
<v Speaker 4>That's harm reduction for an alcoholic. Doesn't it sound absurd?

942
00:52:10.599 --> 00:52:13.119
<v Speaker 4>I do that for all my friends, of course. What

943
00:52:13.239 --> 00:52:16.920
<v Speaker 4>about for your friend who obviously has an eating issue

944
00:52:17.000 --> 00:52:19.559
<v Speaker 4>and is morbidly obese? Do you pick them up and

945
00:52:19.599 --> 00:52:22.079
<v Speaker 4>take them to the Golden Corral buffet every day, because

946
00:52:22.119 --> 00:52:24.280
<v Speaker 4>you know what, They're gonna do it anyway, and at

947
00:52:24.320 --> 00:52:25.920
<v Speaker 4>least I'll be there to make sure they don't chuck

948
00:52:25.960 --> 00:52:28.800
<v Speaker 4>to death on a chicken wing if I take them there.

949
00:52:29.880 --> 00:52:32.000
<v Speaker 4>Is But you say it like that, and it really

950
00:52:32.000 --> 00:52:35.400
<v Speaker 4>does sound like the dumbest thing that anybody could ever do.

951
00:52:35.679 --> 00:52:37.960
<v Speaker 4>And here's the thing, you, guys. I totally understand that

952
00:52:38.039 --> 00:52:42.760
<v Speaker 4>the thinking behind harm reduction is that a dead drug

953
00:52:42.800 --> 00:52:45.400
<v Speaker 4>addict will never have the chance to get clean. And

954
00:52:45.880 --> 00:52:51.559
<v Speaker 4>that's true, that's absolutely true. But that is why we

955
00:52:51.679 --> 00:52:55.559
<v Speaker 4>cannot allow people to wallow in their addiction. I've now

956
00:52:55.599 --> 00:52:58.920
<v Speaker 4>spent too much time talking to people who are who

957
00:52:58.920 --> 00:53:01.679
<v Speaker 4>are either on I say, on the other side of addiction.

958
00:53:01.840 --> 00:53:05.360
<v Speaker 4>I know that addicts can go a very long time

959
00:53:05.400 --> 00:53:09.320
<v Speaker 4>being sober and then fall off the wagon and start

960
00:53:09.360 --> 00:53:12.400
<v Speaker 4>the whole process again. I understand this, But I also

961
00:53:12.519 --> 00:53:15.280
<v Speaker 4>know addicts who are addicts for a very long time,

962
00:53:15.320 --> 00:53:18.400
<v Speaker 4>but then now they've been sober for so long that

963
00:53:18.440 --> 00:53:21.400
<v Speaker 4>they don't have the same temptations and impulses that they

964
00:53:21.440 --> 00:53:23.760
<v Speaker 4>had when they first got clean. And I know some

965
00:53:23.800 --> 00:53:26.039
<v Speaker 4>people like this personally. I mean, I know someone who

966
00:53:26.119 --> 00:53:28.760
<v Speaker 4>was like a heroin addict for twenty five years and

967
00:53:28.840 --> 00:53:31.800
<v Speaker 4>now has been cleaned for thirty years, and they're not

968
00:53:32.440 --> 00:53:36.599
<v Speaker 4>in the mindset of an addict anymore. I think that

969
00:53:38.880 --> 00:53:43.079
<v Speaker 4>anyone who expects people in the throes of addiction when

970
00:53:43.119 --> 00:53:47.239
<v Speaker 4>the brain has stopped making sense and only cares about

971
00:53:47.280 --> 00:53:50.719
<v Speaker 4>getting more drugs, and that's what addiction is right. Addiction

972
00:53:51.079 --> 00:53:54.280
<v Speaker 4>makes drug addicts choose drugs over their children, over the

973
00:53:54.280 --> 00:53:58.400
<v Speaker 4>people they love, over their parents, over everything. That's what

974
00:53:58.440 --> 00:54:02.840
<v Speaker 4>addiction can do. And expecting to just keep giving them

975
00:54:03.199 --> 00:54:07.840
<v Speaker 4>the stuff they need to keep making a choice that

976
00:54:07.920 --> 00:54:10.559
<v Speaker 4>can kill them at any time with a drug supply

977
00:54:10.639 --> 00:54:14.039
<v Speaker 4>that is completely untested. We just had a story that

978
00:54:14.079 --> 00:54:16.239
<v Speaker 4>there was a bad batch of fentanyl in Baltimore and

979
00:54:16.320 --> 00:54:20.280
<v Speaker 4>like thirty people died in a day. Thirty people in

980
00:54:20.320 --> 00:54:23.760
<v Speaker 4>a day, and you're handing out pipes and foil to

981
00:54:23.880 --> 00:54:26.760
<v Speaker 4>make it easier for them to smoke their drugs. This

982
00:54:26.920 --> 00:54:31.079
<v Speaker 4>is completely lost on me, absolutely lost. I think it

983
00:54:31.159 --> 00:54:37.559
<v Speaker 4>is well intended and an absolute disaster. And unless you

984
00:54:37.599 --> 00:54:41.199
<v Speaker 4>think I'm wrong, I want to share a tweet that

985
00:54:41.360 --> 00:54:45.320
<v Speaker 4>was texted out by someone called gen x Genden a

986
00:54:45.320 --> 00:54:47.239
<v Speaker 4>few times a month. She says I check in the

987
00:54:47.280 --> 00:54:51.880
<v Speaker 4>Denver County Medical Examines fatal OD data twenty twenty five

988
00:54:51.960 --> 00:54:55.400
<v Speaker 4>is looking grim. From January to May, we've hit two

989
00:54:55.559 --> 00:55:00.320
<v Speaker 4>hundred and fifty five fatal ods, nearly three times the

990
00:55:00.360 --> 00:55:03.800
<v Speaker 4>same or for the same period in twenty eighteen, and

991
00:55:03.840 --> 00:55:07.559
<v Speaker 4>a seven percent increase from the twenty twenty three peak.

992
00:55:07.599 --> 00:55:11.719
<v Speaker 4>And you, guys, drug addiction is often a lagging cause

993
00:55:11.719 --> 00:55:15.880
<v Speaker 4>of death because the toxicology reports take so long, so

994
00:55:16.000 --> 00:55:19.440
<v Speaker 4>that number will likely go up. So you're gonna tell

995
00:55:19.480 --> 00:55:22.599
<v Speaker 4>me that telling people on little cards how to more

996
00:55:22.639 --> 00:55:26.519
<v Speaker 4>efficiently smoke their drugs is helping solve the problem. I

997
00:55:26.519 --> 00:55:29.360
<v Speaker 4>would say, no, it doesn't seem to be, not at all.

998
00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:32.880
<v Speaker 4>We'll be right back in this segment. I want to

999
00:55:32.920 --> 00:55:36.679
<v Speaker 4>do something completely different. I have what I'm just calling

1000
00:55:36.880 --> 00:55:39.119
<v Speaker 4>my silly listener question of the day, and I keep

1001
00:55:39.159 --> 00:55:40.559
<v Speaker 4>seeing those on the Internet and I love them, and

1002
00:55:40.599 --> 00:55:43.039
<v Speaker 4>I thought I would just bring them to you. So

1003
00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:46.960
<v Speaker 4>get ready, get ready to text in your answers to

1004
00:55:47.039 --> 00:55:49.000
<v Speaker 4>five six six. N I know, but first I want

1005
00:55:49.039 --> 00:55:52.440
<v Speaker 4>to ask this question respectfully. Mandy is your nephew and Israel.

1006
00:55:52.880 --> 00:55:57.159
<v Speaker 4>You're a prepper, as you talk Israel more than anything

1007
00:55:57.159 --> 00:55:59.440
<v Speaker 4>else that support Israel but still think the United States

1008
00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:02.960
<v Speaker 4>are upon for Israel. They say jump, We ask how Hi? Thanks?

1009
00:56:03.320 --> 00:56:03.719
<v Speaker 6>You know what?

1010
00:56:04.159 --> 00:56:10.039
<v Speaker 4>Can't help you? Just can't help you with that. It

1011
00:56:10.159 --> 00:56:12.199
<v Speaker 4>matters to me because eventually it will be in our

1012
00:56:13.000 --> 00:56:18.920
<v Speaker 4>laps anyway, that's the thing. Okay. Today's silly listener question

1013
00:56:19.000 --> 00:56:25.400
<v Speaker 4>is simple. This from a post on x dot com. Okay, algorithm,

1014
00:56:25.440 --> 00:56:29.039
<v Speaker 4>don't steer me wrong. What was your favorite non traditional

1015
00:56:29.079 --> 00:56:32.239
<v Speaker 4>gift that you asked for and received as a wedding gift?

1016
00:56:33.000 --> 00:56:37.880
<v Speaker 4>Building this wedding registry has me stressed, and I have one.

1017
00:56:38.280 --> 00:56:40.079
<v Speaker 4>When Chuck and I got married, we did not register

1018
00:56:40.199 --> 00:56:43.239
<v Speaker 4>for gifts we had we did not need gifts, so

1019
00:56:43.239 --> 00:56:45.280
<v Speaker 4>we didn't have a proper registry. But I have one

1020
00:56:45.719 --> 00:56:48.880
<v Speaker 4>from my first marriage that is very funny and I'm

1021
00:56:48.880 --> 00:56:50.559
<v Speaker 4>not gonna say yet because I want to hear what

1022
00:56:50.599 --> 00:56:52.360
<v Speaker 4>you guys have to say. So the question is this,

1023
00:56:52.920 --> 00:56:56.719
<v Speaker 4>what is the best non traditional wedding gift you asked

1024
00:56:56.719 --> 00:57:00.280
<v Speaker 4>for and then got? I actually have another one. One

1025
00:57:00.360 --> 00:57:04.559
<v Speaker 4>Valentine's Day, Chuck hands me a gift for Valentine's Day

1026
00:57:04.599 --> 00:57:07.800
<v Speaker 4>and as he's handing me this large box, he hands

1027
00:57:07.800 --> 00:57:10.800
<v Speaker 4>it to me and says, this is either the best

1028
00:57:10.880 --> 00:57:16.960
<v Speaker 4>Valentine's Day gift or the worst Valentine's Day gift in history. Intrigued,

1029
00:57:17.199 --> 00:57:21.440
<v Speaker 4>I opened it and it was a crossbow. Best Valentine's

1030
00:57:21.519 --> 00:57:24.760
<v Speaker 4>Day gift ever. Seriously, I mean, how cool is that?

1031
00:57:26.239 --> 00:57:27.000
<v Speaker 4>How cool is that?

1032
00:57:29.159 --> 00:57:29.280
<v Speaker 3>So?

1033
00:57:29.840 --> 00:57:33.280
<v Speaker 4>Uh, we're asking for non traditional and this first person said,

1034
00:57:33.320 --> 00:57:37.000
<v Speaker 4>Dinnerware said, that's a very traditional wedding gift. Brant, what

1035
00:57:37.079 --> 00:57:38.840
<v Speaker 4>are some of the wedding gifts that you and Olivia got,

1036
00:57:38.840 --> 00:57:42.960
<v Speaker 4>because you guys got married fairly recently. Yeah, I mean

1037
00:57:43.079 --> 00:57:44.199
<v Speaker 4>just the usual stuff.

1038
00:57:45.039 --> 00:57:47.239
<v Speaker 5>One of them that was really cool was we got

1039
00:57:47.280 --> 00:57:50.280
<v Speaker 5>a really really nice air mattress that we asked for

1040
00:57:50.400 --> 00:57:50.920
<v Speaker 5>and got.

1041
00:57:51.440 --> 00:57:55.519
<v Speaker 4>Well, I and what's funny is so I have wedding

1042
00:57:55.519 --> 00:57:59.119
<v Speaker 4>gifts for my first wedding that I still use. I

1043
00:57:59.159 --> 00:58:02.800
<v Speaker 4>had this amazing lasagna pan that my my friend who

1044
00:58:02.840 --> 00:58:05.119
<v Speaker 4>I worked at the radio station with, Simon, he gave

1045
00:58:05.159 --> 00:58:08.800
<v Speaker 4>me this lasagna pan and this really killers callander. So

1046
00:58:08.840 --> 00:58:10.440
<v Speaker 4>it was like a little pasta set, you know what

1047
00:58:10.440 --> 00:58:12.519

1048
00:58:12.559 --> 00:58:14.199
<v Speaker 4>it all the time, and every time I pull it out,

1049
00:58:14.239 --> 00:58:14.760
<v Speaker 4>I think of him.

1050
00:58:14.840 --> 00:58:17.159
<v Speaker 5>We got a gravy boat that we did not ask for.

1051
00:58:17.360 --> 00:58:19.039
<v Speaker 5>But then it had one hundred bucks in it, so

1052
00:58:19.400 --> 00:58:22.719
<v Speaker 5>o gravy. That was just a delivery system for a

1053
00:58:22.719 --> 00:58:24.760
<v Speaker 5>little grand One other really cool thing that we did

1054
00:58:24.760 --> 00:58:26.599
<v Speaker 5>not ask for. I know this isn't the question, but

1055
00:58:27.039 --> 00:58:30.119
<v Speaker 5>one of Olivia's dad's friends made a He took like

1056
00:58:30.119 --> 00:58:33.000
<v Speaker 5>a huge chunk of wood and made this massive coat

1057
00:58:33.119 --> 00:58:35.760
<v Speaker 5>rack and that like burn it in certain ways to

1058
00:58:35.840 --> 00:58:38.800
<v Speaker 5>design it the old railroad ties.

1059
00:58:38.960 --> 00:58:43.880
<v Speaker 4>Is that that? Yeah, that's really cool. A crylic toilet

1060
00:58:43.960 --> 00:58:48.239
<v Speaker 4>seat with miniature rubber duckies in Boston in it. Mm hmm.

1061
00:58:48.920 --> 00:58:52.440
<v Speaker 4>That that is a unique and special thing. None of

1062
00:58:52.480 --> 00:58:55.280
<v Speaker 4>you guys got practical gifts a wedding gifts like non

1063
00:58:55.360 --> 00:58:58.239
<v Speaker 4>traditional weird things. So here is my story from my

1064
00:58:58.280 --> 00:59:01.639
<v Speaker 4>first husband. And if you guys don't bring me something else,

1065
00:59:01.679 --> 00:59:03.679
<v Speaker 4>I'm never gonna do these questions again. I thought you

1066
00:59:03.719 --> 00:59:06.480
<v Speaker 4>guys would really bring it. I was excited. This is

1067
00:59:06.559 --> 00:59:08.840
<v Speaker 4>yet another one of those examples where the talk show

1068
00:59:08.880 --> 00:59:13.679
<v Speaker 4>host thought something was very interesting and the audience is like, Nay, whatever,

1069
00:59:14.000 --> 00:59:17.559
<v Speaker 4>it's fine. So when my husband, my first husband, and

1070
00:59:17.599 --> 00:59:19.519
<v Speaker 4>I got married, so this was like nineteen ninety nine,

1071
00:59:19.960 --> 00:59:22.800
<v Speaker 4>the stores has just started giving you the gun. You

1072
00:59:22.840 --> 00:59:25.079
<v Speaker 4>know what I mean, the little zapper gun. So they

1073
00:59:25.119 --> 00:59:27.360
<v Speaker 4>give us this gun. We're mad with power. We're going

1074
00:59:27.360 --> 00:59:30.440
<v Speaker 4>to do our list. It's like Target or something. And

1075
00:59:31.239 --> 00:59:35.360
<v Speaker 4>my ex husband zap's a nose hair trimmer. So how

1076
00:59:35.400 --> 00:59:37.519
<v Speaker 4>many knows harea trimmers do you think we got as

1077
00:59:37.559 --> 00:59:41.599
<v Speaker 4>wedding gifts. We even got a better nose Haarah trimmer

1078
00:59:41.639 --> 00:59:43.679
<v Speaker 4>than the one we asked for from someone who was like,

1079
00:59:44.000 --> 00:59:47.239
<v Speaker 4>you don't want that brand, that's like the amateur brand.

1080
00:59:47.400 --> 00:59:49.400
<v Speaker 4>So he got a no Zera trimmer. I got a

1081
00:59:49.440 --> 00:59:52.800
<v Speaker 4>no Zera trimmer. We all got nos hair trimmers. It

1082
00:59:52.840 --> 00:59:54.920
<v Speaker 4>was fantastic and we had no one to blame but

1083
00:59:55.000 --> 00:59:57.360
<v Speaker 4>ourselves because, oh, by the way, we forgot to ask him,

1084
00:59:57.440 --> 00:59:59.559
<v Speaker 4>how do you take something off after you zap it?

1085
00:59:59.719 --> 01:00:03.159
<v Speaker 4>A Incidentally, we could have asked, but we did not.

1086
01:00:04.119 --> 01:00:06.760
<v Speaker 4>So we got noshair trimmers as our wedding gift. That

1087
01:00:06.840 --> 01:00:10.079
<v Speaker 4>was pretty awesome. Someone gave us pre filled out divorce

1088
01:00:10.159 --> 01:00:12.559
<v Speaker 4>papers as a gag gift. I don't know if I

1089
01:00:12.559 --> 01:00:17.320
<v Speaker 4>would take that kindly. I really don't know. My oldest

1090
01:00:17.320 --> 01:00:20.559
<v Speaker 4>son and his wife, they have an ex friend who

1091
01:00:20.599 --> 01:00:23.039
<v Speaker 4>is an ex friend because when he called to tell

1092
01:00:23.079 --> 01:00:25.800
<v Speaker 4>him he wasn't coming to the wedding. They said, I'll

1093
01:00:25.840 --> 01:00:30.119
<v Speaker 4>come to you guys's next wedding, and they were like, yeah,

1094
01:00:30.159 --> 01:00:33.599
<v Speaker 4>we don't need you in our life. Mandy, we got

1095
01:00:33.599 --> 01:00:37.400
<v Speaker 4>a condom dispenser. We now have seven boys. Apparently somebody

1096
01:00:37.480 --> 01:00:39.320
<v Speaker 4>poked some holes in your condoms before they gave them

1097
01:00:39.320 --> 01:00:44.000
<v Speaker 4>to you. I'm just saying. My best wedding gift didn't

1098
01:00:44.000 --> 01:00:46.400
<v Speaker 4>come until two years later a divorce. Well, that is

1099
01:00:46.480 --> 01:00:50.159
<v Speaker 4>non traditional, Mandy. For a wedding gift, I gave a

1100
01:00:50.159 --> 01:00:53.039
<v Speaker 4>good friend a worm farm set up. She loved it.

1101
01:00:53.559 --> 01:00:55.079
<v Speaker 4>I mean, but if you know your friend's gonna love it,

1102
01:00:55.079 --> 01:00:58.880
<v Speaker 4>but what about her spouse? Hey, you married someone who's

1103
01:00:58.920 --> 01:01:02.400
<v Speaker 4>excited about a worm There's always time to reconsider.

1104
01:01:04.480 --> 01:01:04.840
<v Speaker 2>Mandy.

1105
01:01:04.840 --> 01:01:08.159
<v Speaker 4>We got married just to get a knife. Nice knife set, you, guys.

1106
01:01:08.280 --> 01:01:10.440
<v Speaker 4>I forgot to talk about my knife I got in Japan.

1107
01:01:10.880 --> 01:01:16.639
<v Speaker 4>Oh it is it is next level knife. It is

1108
01:01:17.079 --> 01:01:22.159
<v Speaker 4>so good, so so so good. I am anti knife sets.

1109
01:01:22.239 --> 01:01:24.119
<v Speaker 4>Just to give you an idea. When I was like twenty,

1110
01:01:24.800 --> 01:01:27.760
<v Speaker 4>I think maybe twenty one or twenty two. One year

1111
01:01:27.760 --> 01:01:30.840
<v Speaker 4>for Christmas, my dad gave me my first really good

1112
01:01:31.559 --> 01:01:34.559
<v Speaker 4>ten inch chef's knife, a Hinkle. I still have it.

1113
01:01:34.639 --> 01:01:37.119
<v Speaker 4>I still use it all the time. And he said,

1114
01:01:37.639 --> 01:01:40.360
<v Speaker 4>always buy good knives, even if you can only buy

1115
01:01:40.400 --> 01:01:43.000
<v Speaker 4>them one at a time. And that's what I did,

1116
01:01:43.039 --> 01:01:45.239
<v Speaker 4>and I built my knife set based on that and

1117
01:01:45.280 --> 01:01:47.800
<v Speaker 4>it's pretty dang good and it just got better thanks

1118
01:01:47.840 --> 01:01:53.559
<v Speaker 4>to Japan Mandy. We gave our friends a partswasher. What

1119
01:01:54.000 --> 01:01:55.000
<v Speaker 4>is a parts swasher?

1120
01:01:55.920 --> 01:01:56.000
<v Speaker 3>Like?

1121
01:01:56.079 --> 01:02:00.960
<v Speaker 4>Who's parts? What are you washing? Which parts? You? We

1122
01:02:01.000 --> 01:02:03.960
<v Speaker 4>need more information about that, like private parts, That's what

1123
01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:09.920
<v Speaker 4>I'm asking, Like car parts, personal private parts parts, your

1124
01:02:09.920 --> 01:02:12.199
<v Speaker 4>bathing suit covers? What are we talking about here? I'm

1125
01:02:12.199 --> 01:02:15.719
<v Speaker 4>thinking suit cover maybe, But what does that even look like?

1126
01:02:16.800 --> 01:02:19.199
<v Speaker 4>Because that seems like that would need to be gender specific,

1127
01:02:19.239 --> 01:02:21.599
<v Speaker 4>if you know what I mean. That's what we were.

1128
01:02:21.760 --> 01:02:26.280
<v Speaker 4>There need to be two if there was, you know,

1129
01:02:26.880 --> 01:02:28.559
<v Speaker 4>unless it was the same sex couple. And not that

1130
01:02:28.599 --> 01:02:31.280
<v Speaker 4>there's anything wrong with that. I recently gifted a vacuum

1131
01:02:31.280 --> 01:02:34.199
<v Speaker 4>cleaner to some friends with the note attached this gift

1132
01:02:34.239 --> 01:02:37.960
<v Speaker 4>sucks well done. That was one of the best gifts

1133
01:02:37.960 --> 01:02:40.239
<v Speaker 4>we got. Oh you got to love a good vacuum cleaner.

1134
01:02:40.239 --> 01:02:44.800
<v Speaker 4>Are you really really exactly and vacuum cleaner and you're

1135
01:02:44.800 --> 01:02:47.480
<v Speaker 4>excited about both of them. Like the first day with

1136
01:02:47.480 --> 01:02:49.440
<v Speaker 4>the new vacuum. This is what happens. By the way,

1137
01:02:50.039 --> 01:02:51.960
<v Speaker 4>you're young, you just got your new vacuum, not that

1138
01:02:52.000 --> 01:02:54.480
<v Speaker 4>long ago, Grant. At some point that new vacuum is

1139
01:02:54.480 --> 01:02:56.119
<v Speaker 4>gonna need to be replaced, and you guys are gonna

1140
01:02:56.119 --> 01:02:57.679
<v Speaker 4>go out, you're gonna find you're gonna go buy a

1141
01:02:57.679 --> 01:02:59.800
<v Speaker 4>new vacuum, and you're gonna bring it home and one

1142
01:02:59.800 --> 01:03:01.280
<v Speaker 4>of you is going to put it all together, and

1143
01:03:01.280 --> 01:03:03.320
<v Speaker 4>then you're gonna go, I'm just gonna vacuum and see,

1144
01:03:03.360 --> 01:03:05.480
<v Speaker 4>and you're gonna suck up so much dirt. You're gonna

1145
01:03:05.480 --> 01:03:07.840
<v Speaker 4>be horrified, and you're gonna take the canister and you're

1146
01:03:07.840 --> 01:03:10.599
<v Speaker 4>gonna show your wife, Oh my god, that old vacuum

1147
01:03:10.639 --> 01:03:13.679
<v Speaker 4>wasn't doing this at all. I've I've had that exact

1148
01:03:13.679 --> 01:03:17.239
<v Speaker 4>same experience at least six times, because I have bought

1149
01:03:17.320 --> 01:03:21.480
<v Speaker 4>six new vacuums, and every time, oh my god, we're savages.

1150
01:03:21.519 --> 01:03:26.559
<v Speaker 4>Look at this, We're living in filth. Should have replace this.

1151
01:03:26.719 --> 01:03:31.199
<v Speaker 4>Years ago. My husband's first gift to me after we

1152
01:03:31.199 --> 01:03:33.840
<v Speaker 4>were married was a down sleeping bag, the best ever.

1153
01:03:34.320 --> 01:03:36.679
<v Speaker 4>We were campers, hikers, hunters, so this was valuable to

1154
01:03:36.719 --> 01:03:40.320
<v Speaker 4>me perfect gift, best gift for my first marriage, the

1155
01:03:40.400 --> 01:03:44.079
<v Speaker 4>number do an outstanding divorce attorney. All these pessimists given gifts.

1156
01:03:45.159 --> 01:03:49.159
<v Speaker 4>Uh oh, Mandy, I gave a shot back twice. It

1157
01:03:49.199 --> 01:03:51.159
<v Speaker 4>wasn't asked for, but well received. Who doesn't love a

1158
01:03:51.199 --> 01:03:53.760
<v Speaker 4>shot back? I mean, come on, a shot back is

1159
01:03:53.800 --> 01:03:57.320
<v Speaker 4>one of the most versatile tools in every garage. Mandy.

1160
01:03:57.360 --> 01:04:01.840
<v Speaker 4>We registered at ARII thirty five years ago, got tents, camping, cookware,

1161
01:04:02.119 --> 01:04:06.559
<v Speaker 4>and doggy bag packs for our two Golden Retrievers. Doesn't

1162
01:04:06.559 --> 01:04:09.840
<v Speaker 4>apply to me, but once I get a friend, I wait.

1163
01:04:09.960 --> 01:04:12.559
<v Speaker 4>I gave a friend couple a bicycle built for two. Oh,

1164
01:04:12.599 --> 01:04:17.400
<v Speaker 4>that's really sweet. That's very sweet. We didn't ask for this,

1165
01:04:17.480 --> 01:04:19.360
<v Speaker 4>but some friends gave us a Coleman cooler for our

1166
01:04:19.360 --> 01:04:22.039
<v Speaker 4>wedding forty years ago. Our twenty nine year old daughter

1167
01:04:22.079 --> 01:04:25.039
<v Speaker 4>now uses it for camping. They don't build him like

1168
01:04:25.079 --> 01:04:27.119
<v Speaker 4>they used to. Okay, I got a bunch of good stuff.

1169
01:04:27.119 --> 01:04:28.400
<v Speaker 4>Now we'll be back with a few more of these

1170
01:04:28.400 --> 01:04:35.559
<v Speaker 4>are right after this. You're killing my text line though.

1171
01:04:35.800 --> 01:04:38.480
<v Speaker 4>This guy is literally just texting every stream of thought

1172
01:04:38.519 --> 01:04:40.960
<v Speaker 4>coming into his head, and I'm trying to get back

1173
01:04:41.000 --> 01:04:43.320
<v Speaker 4>to the comments that you guys made off the topic

1174
01:04:43.360 --> 01:04:46.360
<v Speaker 4>at hand, and he is literally just filling up my

1175
01:04:46.400 --> 01:04:49.199
<v Speaker 4>text thread and he's not even talking about this show anyway.

1176
01:04:50.599 --> 01:04:53.960
<v Speaker 4>First of all, Grant, we have clarification. A parts cleaner

1177
01:04:54.119 --> 01:04:56.840
<v Speaker 4>is for car parts. Oh so our minds were just

1178
01:04:56.840 --> 01:04:59.000
<v Speaker 4>in the shutter. Yeah, well I didn't know that that's

1179
01:04:59.039 --> 01:05:02.800
<v Speaker 4>a thing. I've never cleaned car parts before, just left

1180
01:05:02.840 --> 01:05:07.519
<v Speaker 4>them dirty, or assume someone else cleaned them. I don't know. Mandy.

1181
01:05:07.559 --> 01:05:10.679
<v Speaker 4>I'm from Kansas. My wife and I received a homemade

1182
01:05:10.719 --> 01:05:12.480
<v Speaker 4>quote with our name on it and the date we

1183
01:05:12.480 --> 01:05:14.880
<v Speaker 4>were married. Now that's a very touching wedding gift. I'm

1184
01:05:14.880 --> 01:05:19.639
<v Speaker 4>talking about practical, non traditional, like wow, you open this

1185
01:05:19.719 --> 01:05:21.519
<v Speaker 4>up and you're like, well, I did not expect that

1186
01:05:21.719 --> 01:05:26.840
<v Speaker 4>kind of gift. Just you know, Mandy, a friend of

1187
01:05:26.840 --> 01:05:29.719
<v Speaker 4>mine gives toasters but has them engraved with the newlyweds

1188
01:05:29.800 --> 01:05:32.000
<v Speaker 4>name so they can't take it back. That is the

1189
01:05:32.039 --> 01:05:37.480
<v Speaker 4>most passive aggressive gift giving I have ever heard. Mandy.

1190
01:05:37.480 --> 01:05:39.880
<v Speaker 4>I bought a new Speed Queen washer and dryer last year,

1191
01:05:39.880 --> 01:05:42.480
<v Speaker 4>and I washed clothes for the next week. This washer

1192
01:05:42.519 --> 01:05:45.400
<v Speaker 4>and dryer is so much better than the old front load. Yeah,

1193
01:05:45.440 --> 01:05:48.360
<v Speaker 4>we all do it. We all do it, guys. I'm

1194
01:05:48.400 --> 01:05:51.119
<v Speaker 4>asking the question about your non traditional wedding gifts. You

1195
01:05:51.119 --> 01:05:53.719
<v Speaker 4>can text it to five six six nine. Oh. This one.

1196
01:05:53.760 --> 01:05:56.119
<v Speaker 4>We gave our oldest niece and her husband some bland

1197
01:05:56.159 --> 01:05:59.360
<v Speaker 4>wedding gift for public assumption and a secret gift with

1198
01:05:59.440 --> 01:06:02.159
<v Speaker 4>the administ to open it up in private. The joy

1199
01:06:02.199 --> 01:06:04.719
<v Speaker 4>of sex and more joy of sex. They were both

1200
01:06:04.880 --> 01:06:08.599
<v Speaker 4>very religious and innocent souls. They told us privately later

1201
01:06:08.679 --> 01:06:10.920
<v Speaker 4>that was one of their best gifts, as they knew

1202
01:06:10.920 --> 01:06:13.519
<v Speaker 4>some of the mechanics but not the details. They have

1203
01:06:13.599 --> 01:06:16.960
<v Speaker 4>four children now, sometimes they need a little help. I

1204
01:06:17.000 --> 01:06:19.000
<v Speaker 4>think they figured it out. Yep, seems like they got

1205
01:06:19.039 --> 01:06:23.119
<v Speaker 4>The books were probably very helpful. Best wedding gift I

1206
01:06:23.199 --> 01:06:25.880
<v Speaker 4>gave was a six foot step ladder. I'm not sure why,

1207
01:06:25.920 --> 01:06:28.880
<v Speaker 4>but I don't I wouldn't complain. Here's one, Mandy. I've

1208
01:06:28.920 --> 01:06:31.320
<v Speaker 4>never had any complaints about the envelope with the Benjamins.

1209
01:06:31.679 --> 01:06:35.119
<v Speaker 4>I like to give a thoughtful wedding gift that represents

1210
01:06:35.320 --> 01:06:38.000
<v Speaker 4>my relationship with the people getting married in some way,

1211
01:06:38.039 --> 01:06:41.079
<v Speaker 4>shape or form, because I'm not kidding everything I have

1212
01:06:41.199 --> 01:06:43.840
<v Speaker 4>For my first marriage, which was in nineteen ninety nine,

1213
01:06:43.960 --> 01:06:47.559
<v Speaker 4>I remember who gave it to me. I also remember

1214
01:06:47.679 --> 01:06:50.039
<v Speaker 4>when Chuck buys me things where we were when he

1215
01:06:50.119 --> 01:06:52.639
<v Speaker 4>bought them, like a gift, or if we're on vacation.

1216
01:06:52.800 --> 01:06:56.199
<v Speaker 4>What vacation I bought something on and I you know,

1217
01:06:56.480 --> 01:06:58.199
<v Speaker 4>I don't know why my brain works like that, but

1218
01:06:58.239 --> 01:07:03.320
<v Speaker 4>I can't remember my daughter's cell phone number. No idea, Mandy.

1219
01:07:03.360 --> 01:07:05.239
<v Speaker 4>I gave a set of congas to a couple that

1220
01:07:05.320 --> 01:07:07.960
<v Speaker 4>did a lot of percussion. We brought them in wrapped,

1221
01:07:07.960 --> 01:07:10.639
<v Speaker 4>but they were pretty easy to identify. Some said that

1222
01:07:10.719 --> 01:07:12.440
<v Speaker 4>we raised the bar, and that's what I'm talking about.

1223
01:07:12.480 --> 01:07:15.159
<v Speaker 4>You knew the couple and you bought something highly personal.

1224
01:07:15.159 --> 01:07:18.920
<v Speaker 4>I just I think that's really good, Mandy. Years ago,

1225
01:07:18.960 --> 01:07:20.800
<v Speaker 4>the wind blew my trash can away, and as a

1226
01:07:20.840 --> 01:07:22.639
<v Speaker 4>single mom, I didn't have the money to replace it.

1227
01:07:23.400 --> 01:07:25.000
<v Speaker 4>My neighbors bought one for me and gave it to

1228
01:07:25.039 --> 01:07:27.960
<v Speaker 4>me from a birthday. I took the lid, jumped in

1229
01:07:28.000 --> 01:07:30.840
<v Speaker 4>and said, it's a perfect fit. That's the way you go.

1230
01:07:31.519 --> 01:07:35.039
<v Speaker 4>Who knew trash cans were so expensive? Gully, They're ridiculous,

1231
01:07:35.280 --> 01:07:36.199
<v Speaker 4>It's so dumb.

1232
01:07:36.360 --> 01:07:36.639
<v Speaker 6>Yep.

1233
01:07:37.400 --> 01:07:40.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I actually have a friend who lives in a

1234
01:07:40.320 --> 01:07:42.639
<v Speaker 4>different city. She doesn't live here, and you have to

1235
01:07:42.639 --> 01:07:46.519
<v Speaker 4>buy like the super expensive seventy gallon heavy duty lid ones,

1236
01:07:46.519 --> 01:07:49.079
<v Speaker 4>but you have to pay for them, and her neighbor

1237
01:07:49.199 --> 01:07:53.000
<v Speaker 4>kept stealing hers. Not only this, so this was like

1238
01:07:53.000 --> 01:07:56.480
<v Speaker 4>an older lady, but she had it on ring camera footage.

1239
01:07:56.639 --> 01:07:58.280
<v Speaker 4>So she went over to tell the lady she was

1240
01:07:58.320 --> 01:08:01.320
<v Speaker 4>taking her trash cans back. Lady had already spray painted

1241
01:08:01.360 --> 01:08:03.400
<v Speaker 4>her name on the top of them and said, those

1242
01:08:03.400 --> 01:08:06.239
<v Speaker 4>are clearly not yours, those are mine. She shows her

1243
01:08:06.280 --> 01:08:10.039
<v Speaker 4>the ring camera footage and she's like, oh, well, I

1244
01:08:10.079 --> 01:08:13.199
<v Speaker 4>didn't know those were yours, Like they just occurred, like

1245
01:08:13.400 --> 01:08:16.000
<v Speaker 4>the trash can fairy had just dropped them off. But

1246
01:08:16.079 --> 01:08:20.039
<v Speaker 4>it was a huge kerfuffle, a big kerfuffle. Mandy. We

1247
01:08:20.079 --> 01:08:23.399
<v Speaker 4>got a really nice luggage set for four and eighteen

1248
01:08:23.439 --> 01:08:28.079
<v Speaker 4>years later we're a family of four. There you go. Um,

1249
01:08:29.039 --> 01:08:32.319
<v Speaker 4>let me see here, Mandy. We had Waterford glasses on

1250
01:08:32.359 --> 01:08:35.920
<v Speaker 4>our registry, including champagne flutes that we received early to

1251
01:08:36.039 --> 01:08:38.600
<v Speaker 4>use for our toast at the reception. I have a

1252
01:08:38.640 --> 01:08:41.920
<v Speaker 4>pair of waterfor why did they didn't make it through

1253
01:08:41.920 --> 01:08:45.880
<v Speaker 4>the twenties? Just letting you know. By the way, if

1254
01:08:45.880 --> 01:08:47.920
<v Speaker 4>you ever come to my house, you'll notice my beautiful

1255
01:08:48.039 --> 01:08:52.199
<v Speaker 4>wineglasses are often from the dollar store. Not gonna lie.

1256
01:08:52.239 --> 01:08:53.920
<v Speaker 4>I have a whole set of party wine glasses that

1257
01:08:53.920 --> 01:08:55.640
<v Speaker 4>I got at the dollar store. Guess how much they cost?

1258
01:08:55.680 --> 01:09:06.800
<v Speaker 4>Grant a dollar? Correct direct, There you go. Let me

1259
01:09:07.000 --> 01:09:11.720
<v Speaker 4>see here, I'm trying to go the um. Did you

1260
01:09:11.760 --> 01:09:14.159
<v Speaker 4>mention the cool hummingbird feeders one that came in yet?

1261
01:09:14.279 --> 01:09:14.359
<v Speaker 1>No?

1262
01:09:14.479 --> 01:09:16.319
<v Speaker 4>I didn't see that one at all. Is it the

1263
01:09:16.359 --> 01:09:20.159
<v Speaker 4>top one? Oh, cool hummingbird feeders? Yes, except hummingbird feeders

1264
01:09:20.159 --> 01:09:23.560
<v Speaker 4>attract bears where I live, so it's kind of like

1265
01:09:23.560 --> 01:09:28.039
<v Speaker 4>put them out at your own risk kind of thing. Mandy,

1266
01:09:28.119 --> 01:09:30.640
<v Speaker 4>we got a cheap framed poster of both Jesus and

1267
01:09:30.640 --> 01:09:33.760
<v Speaker 4>the Blessed Virgin from Aunt Aggie. She wrote a note

1268
01:09:33.760 --> 01:09:37.560
<v Speaker 4>saying these are for the bedroom. They're in the pole barn. Now, yeah,

1269
01:09:37.600 --> 01:09:39.399
<v Speaker 4>I'm not putting Jesus at the Mother and Mary in

1270
01:09:39.399 --> 01:09:41.840
<v Speaker 4>my bedroom. They don't need to see any sort of

1271
01:09:41.840 --> 01:09:44.159
<v Speaker 4>business that's going on in there. That's the last thing

1272
01:09:44.199 --> 01:09:45.760
<v Speaker 4>I need to have to explain to Saint Peter when

1273
01:09:45.760 --> 01:09:49.960
<v Speaker 4>I hit the pearly gates. Mandy, We gave our son

1274
01:09:50.039 --> 01:09:53.039
<v Speaker 4>and daughter in law a female calf. It's a gift

1275
01:09:53.039 --> 01:09:57.000
<v Speaker 4>that keeps on giving what let me see the end

1276
01:09:57.039 --> 01:10:00.960
<v Speaker 4>of that. To date they now have fought cows. Yes

1277
01:10:00.960 --> 01:10:03.439
<v Speaker 4>it is, and we gave our hang on Mandy. For

1278
01:10:03.520 --> 01:10:06.359
<v Speaker 4>my wedding gift, we got some baby clothes yep. Shotgun wedding,

1279
01:10:06.760 --> 01:10:11.640
<v Speaker 4>still married after fifty five years. Last one, Mandy. For

1280
01:10:11.680 --> 01:10:14.600
<v Speaker 4>my first wedding in nineteen seventy, I received a General

1281
01:10:14.680 --> 01:10:18.560
<v Speaker 4>Electric electric skillet. My husband polished the lid and we

1282
01:10:18.680 --> 01:10:22.560
<v Speaker 4>still use it in our RV today, fifty plus years later.

1283
01:10:22.960 --> 01:10:25.560
<v Speaker 4>That's when they do how to make compliances by gosh,

1284
01:10:25.560 --> 01:10:30.920
<v Speaker 4>by gully. Now they're practically disposable by back in my day.

1285
01:10:31.920 --> 01:10:34.560

1293
01:11:04.039 --> 01:11:06.479
<v Speaker 4>not here with us today. He did the morning shift.

1294
01:11:06.800 --> 01:11:10.720
<v Speaker 4>Grant Smith is here doing this until Friday when he

1295
01:11:10.840 --> 01:11:13.399
<v Speaker 4>has to do the morning shift. What is who did

1296
01:11:13.520 --> 01:11:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Zach pay off? That he doesn't have to do the

1297
01:11:15.039 --> 01:11:19.840
<v Speaker 4>morning shift. Well, there's a little more to it, yeah

1298
01:11:20.079 --> 01:11:20.920
<v Speaker 4>than most shows.

1299
01:11:21.439 --> 01:11:23.439
<v Speaker 5>So not to throw Zach under the bus, but he's

1300
01:11:23.479 --> 01:11:26.720
<v Speaker 5>relatively new and our boss is so nice now that

1301
01:11:26.840 --> 01:11:28.840
<v Speaker 5>people don't get thrown into the fire like when a

1302
01:11:29.039 --> 01:11:30.239
<v Speaker 5>Rod and I started to stop it.

1303
01:11:30.560 --> 01:11:31.560
<v Speaker 4>He's not that nice.

1304
01:11:31.760 --> 01:11:34.359
<v Speaker 5>I'll talk to him about that thro the fire he is.

1305
01:11:34.760 --> 01:11:37.159
<v Speaker 5>He's not there yet, but he will get there. And

1306
01:11:37.319 --> 01:11:39.760
<v Speaker 5>by the way, yeah, on your last topic, I forgot.

1307
01:11:40.199 --> 01:11:42.640
<v Speaker 5>We got a kayak as a wedding gift. That's fantastic

1308
01:11:42.840 --> 01:11:45.319
<v Speaker 5>inflatable kayak which I thought was going to be a nightmare,

1309
01:11:45.640 --> 01:11:47.279
<v Speaker 5>and we took it out and it was the easiest

1310
01:11:47.319 --> 01:11:49.640
<v Speaker 5>thing to pump up in the world and we've used

1311
01:11:49.640 --> 01:11:50.399
<v Speaker 5>it so many times.

1312
01:11:50.479 --> 01:11:52.640
<v Speaker 4>It was a great gift, excellent, and we asked for

1313
01:11:52.760 --> 01:11:55.920
<v Speaker 4>it and we got excellent. I'm on, have bought you

1314
01:11:56.000 --> 01:11:59.600
<v Speaker 4>that grant? You might have I'm thinking about her, like,

1315
01:11:59.600 --> 01:12:02.840
<v Speaker 4>wait a minut, how I vollue that grant And we

1316
01:12:02.960 --> 01:12:04.479
<v Speaker 4>gotta talked about it and I was like, no, that's

1317
01:12:04.479 --> 01:12:08.760
<v Speaker 4>an awesome gift. This is my favorite, uh non traditional

1318
01:12:08.800 --> 01:12:10.880
<v Speaker 4>wedding gift. This one said. We got a sex swing

1319
01:12:11.000 --> 01:12:14.079
<v Speaker 4>and we're still rocking it. You have to know somebody

1320
01:12:14.399 --> 01:12:16.880
<v Speaker 4>to give that as a gift, you know what I'm saying, Like,

1321
01:12:16.920 --> 01:12:20.199
<v Speaker 4>you just don't randomly give a sex swing to someone

1322
01:12:20.319 --> 01:12:25.640
<v Speaker 4>without without understanding. Oh yeah, yeah. Anyway, I got a

1323
01:12:25.680 --> 01:12:28.159
<v Speaker 4>couple of Colorado stories I want to jump into. You know,

1324
01:12:28.239 --> 01:12:33.520
<v Speaker 4>Phil Wiser is running for governor and he's trying to

1325
01:12:33.680 --> 01:12:37.840
<v Speaker 4>find ways to give himself an edge. Michael Bennett is

1326
01:12:38.119 --> 01:12:41.880
<v Speaker 4>crushing the fundraising, I mean crushing the fundraising and really

1327
01:12:42.359 --> 01:12:45.199
<v Speaker 4>sucking up all the oxygen and the Democratic primaries for governor.

1328
01:12:46.920 --> 01:12:51.239
<v Speaker 4>So he's kind of doing some stuff that part of

1329
01:12:51.279 --> 01:12:54.439
<v Speaker 4>it is a panda and part of it is to

1330
01:12:54.600 --> 01:12:58.560
<v Speaker 4>signal that he's going to fight Trump. So what are

1331
01:12:58.600 --> 01:13:00.840
<v Speaker 4>we talking about here? First of all, you, I mean

1332
01:13:00.880 --> 01:13:04.760
<v Speaker 4>I kind of went through this stuff with Wanda James,

1333
01:13:04.880 --> 01:13:09.079
<v Speaker 4>the CU regent who also owns retail marijuana establishments, who

1334
01:13:09.319 --> 01:13:14.399
<v Speaker 4>actually aggressively attacked CU's high on THHC program because it

1335
01:13:14.680 --> 01:13:16.880
<v Speaker 4>wouldn't Darry hurt her business. She didn't say that, but

1336
01:13:16.960 --> 01:13:22.000
<v Speaker 4>that's the real reason, and the other board members censured her,

1337
01:13:22.439 --> 01:13:24.359
<v Speaker 4>which really means nothing. I mean, you have to have

1338
01:13:24.359 --> 01:13:28.319
<v Speaker 4>an honorable society before CenTra actually means anything. But nonetheless

1339
01:13:28.359 --> 01:13:30.399
<v Speaker 4>she was censured by the other board members, and Phil

1340
01:13:30.439 --> 01:13:33.800
<v Speaker 4>Weiser has come out to say that's wrong. Dang it.

1341
01:13:34.640 --> 01:13:37.680
<v Speaker 4>That is the direct pander to the African American community,

1342
01:13:38.039 --> 01:13:41.319
<v Speaker 4>of which wanted James is a member. The second thing

1343
01:13:41.640 --> 01:13:44.279
<v Speaker 4>that Pilweiser has done. And part of me actually feels

1344
01:13:44.279 --> 01:13:47.199
<v Speaker 4>sorry for Phil because he's done all the right things

1345
01:13:47.239 --> 01:13:49.920
<v Speaker 4>that you're supposed to do. I mean, let's be real,

1346
01:13:50.039 --> 01:13:55.640
<v Speaker 4>AG stands for aspiring governor, right, So he's done all

1347
01:13:55.640 --> 01:13:57.720
<v Speaker 4>the right things. And now you know, Michael Bennett comes in.

1348
01:13:57.840 --> 01:14:01.520
<v Speaker 4>And Michael Bennett, though a very nice fella, I can't

1349
01:14:01.560 --> 01:14:04.600
<v Speaker 4>tell you a single accomplishment of Michael Bennett in the

1350
01:14:04.680 --> 01:14:08.199
<v Speaker 4>US Senate. I'm not saying there's not any, but what

1351
01:14:08.319 --> 01:14:10.239
<v Speaker 4>I'm saying is I can't tell you what any of

1352
01:14:10.279 --> 01:14:13.720
<v Speaker 4>them are. And now Phil Wiser's probably gonna lose the

1353
01:14:13.760 --> 01:14:16.479
<v Speaker 4>Democratic primary to Michael Bennett because he's a senator and

1354
01:14:16.600 --> 01:14:20.800
<v Speaker 4>name recognition and blah blah blah. So in order to

1355
01:14:20.880 --> 01:14:23.680
<v Speaker 4>raise his profile, he's signing on to all these lawsuits

1356
01:14:23.680 --> 01:14:29.239
<v Speaker 4>against the Trump administration. And the latest one is a

1357
01:14:29.279 --> 01:14:31.840
<v Speaker 4>coalition of twenty one state attorney generals who are calling

1358
01:14:31.920 --> 01:14:38.279
<v Speaker 4>on Congress to prohibit federal immigration agents from wearing masks

1359
01:14:38.399 --> 01:14:44.800
<v Speaker 4>and plain clothes. Now, guys, if ICE agents hadn't just

1360
01:14:45.039 --> 01:14:50.039
<v Speaker 4>been shot at at at a pot farm in California,

1361
01:14:50.279 --> 01:14:53.279
<v Speaker 4>if an ICE agent hadn't recently been shot through the

1362
01:14:53.359 --> 01:14:57.399
<v Speaker 4>throat just going to work, if Democrats weren't out there

1363
01:14:57.600 --> 01:15:03.039
<v Speaker 4>calling for violence against size agents, I probably would be like,

1364
01:15:03.199 --> 01:15:06.399
<v Speaker 4>you know, they kind of have a point. But I

1365
01:15:06.479 --> 01:15:09.720
<v Speaker 4>did go back. I looked on the internet for any

1366
01:15:09.800 --> 01:15:15.159
<v Speaker 4>indication that Phil Wiser was calling for protesters in Denver

1367
01:15:15.359 --> 01:15:19.479
<v Speaker 4>to remove their masks, or maybe a mask ban in

1368
01:15:19.600 --> 01:15:22.520
<v Speaker 4>public spaces like New York City is pursuing. Now do

1369
01:15:22.560 --> 01:15:24.000
<v Speaker 4>you know they're doing that? New York City is like,

1370
01:15:24.119 --> 01:15:27.560
<v Speaker 4>no more masks because now criminals are using them to

1371
01:15:27.640 --> 01:15:30.399
<v Speaker 4>hide what their faces are. And that's absolutely true. Same

1372
01:15:30.479 --> 01:15:33.439
<v Speaker 4>with the protesters. If you're so proud to come out

1373
01:15:33.439 --> 01:15:36.800
<v Speaker 4>and protest, show your face. Now, of course you could say, Mandy,

1374
01:15:37.119 --> 01:15:39.079
<v Speaker 4>if they're so proud to work for the government, show

1375
01:15:39.119 --> 01:15:41.760
<v Speaker 4>your face. There's a big difference. And let me tell

1376
01:15:41.760 --> 01:15:46.399
<v Speaker 4>you what it is. If you have fifty protesters out

1377
01:15:46.439 --> 01:15:50.079
<v Speaker 4>there and ten of them go rogue and start doing

1378
01:15:50.159 --> 01:15:52.079
<v Speaker 4>terrible things in burning down buildings or whatever. Do you

1379
01:15:52.119 --> 01:15:55.359
<v Speaker 4>now you find out how or who those protesters were,

1380
01:15:55.439 --> 01:15:58.359
<v Speaker 4>so maybe you could arrest the guilty. I don't know either,

1381
01:15:59.159 --> 01:16:01.479
<v Speaker 4>because protesters to show up, right, there's just a group

1382
01:16:01.479 --> 01:16:03.279
<v Speaker 4>of people who got together to be mad about something

1383
01:16:03.359 --> 01:16:05.199
<v Speaker 4>or because they want to riot or loot or whatever

1384
01:16:05.239 --> 01:16:10.239
<v Speaker 4>their end game is. If I watch fifty ICE agents

1385
01:16:10.960 --> 01:16:13.760
<v Speaker 4>go in and arrest people and ten of them do

1386
01:16:13.960 --> 01:16:16.119
<v Speaker 4>things that are wrong, do you know what recourse I have.

1387
01:16:16.640 --> 01:16:18.920
<v Speaker 4>I can go to ICE and say, you've got to

1388
01:16:18.920 --> 01:16:22.239
<v Speaker 4>find out out of your fifty agents, which ten we're

1389
01:16:22.279 --> 01:16:25.359
<v Speaker 4>doing the bad things? Because all fifty we know exactly

1390
01:16:25.399 --> 01:16:28.199
<v Speaker 4>who those fifty people are. Someone does they can be

1391
01:16:28.279 --> 01:16:32.479
<v Speaker 4>held accountable, and I grab this story. This is fun,

1392
01:16:32.640 --> 01:16:36.760
<v Speaker 4>you guys, this is super fun. A San Antonio City

1393
01:16:36.840 --> 01:16:41.800
<v Speaker 4>Council candidate publicly urged violence against federal agents, echoing a

1394
01:16:41.880 --> 01:16:47.840
<v Speaker 4>recent terrorist ambush by far leftist Matthew Ghana. Sounds a

1395
01:16:47.920 --> 01:16:51.880
<v Speaker 4>lot like guano, which is batpoop. I'll make that joke.

1396
01:16:52.279 --> 01:16:55.239
<v Speaker 4>A self described Democrat and candidate for San Antonio City

1397
01:16:55.279 --> 01:16:58.640
<v Speaker 4>Council is facing backlash after posting a now deleted post

1398
01:16:58.720 --> 01:17:02.680
<v Speaker 4>on x calling for the deaths of ICE agents. He said,

1399
01:17:03.079 --> 01:17:05.640
<v Speaker 4>I want to see a few dead ICE agents, Los Angeles.

1400
01:17:05.720 --> 01:17:10.800
<v Speaker 4>Don't let me down now. This is after a group

1401
01:17:10.840 --> 01:17:13.319
<v Speaker 4>of terrorists and far left US ambushed the Prairie Land

1402
01:17:13.359 --> 01:17:16.359
<v Speaker 4>Detention Center in Alphado, Texas. During a July fourth assault,

1403
01:17:17.319 --> 01:17:20.159
<v Speaker 4>armed suspects and tactical gear, open fire on law enforcement,

1404
01:17:20.199 --> 01:17:23.640
<v Speaker 4>and shot a police officer in the neck. Those ten

1405
01:17:23.680 --> 01:17:27.960
<v Speaker 4>people have been charge with attempted murder. Democratic leaders like

1406
01:17:28.079 --> 01:17:33.680
<v Speaker 4>Representative Jiapaul labeled ICE a terrorist force and praised those

1407
01:17:33.800 --> 01:17:38.720
<v Speaker 4>obstructing its operations. Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons and DHS

1408
01:17:38.840 --> 01:17:42.800
<v Speaker 4>warned that such rhetoric correlates with spikes and violence against ICE,

1409
01:17:43.239 --> 01:17:47.000
<v Speaker 4>including a five one hundred to seven hundred percent increase

1410
01:17:47.399 --> 01:17:51.720
<v Speaker 4>in assaults on ICE officers. DHS Assistant Secretary McLaughlin said

1411
01:17:52.039 --> 01:17:55.479
<v Speaker 4>demographic data showed a four hundred and thirteen percent increase

1412
01:17:55.520 --> 01:17:58.880
<v Speaker 4>in assaults against ICE officers in twenty twenty five, and

1413
01:17:59.039 --> 01:18:02.760
<v Speaker 4>warned that comparison to Hitler's gestapo or encouragement of writers

1414
01:18:02.920 --> 01:18:05.920
<v Speaker 4>is beyond the pale. But other Democrats have also come

1415
01:18:05.960 --> 01:18:11.479
<v Speaker 4>out to say their constituencies are demanding bloodshed and that's

1416
01:18:11.520 --> 01:18:13.560
<v Speaker 4>why I'm okay with ICE agents being able to wear

1417
01:18:13.640 --> 01:18:17.760
<v Speaker 4>masks right now because with the Internet, people can find

1418
01:18:17.800 --> 01:18:20.000
<v Speaker 4>out who they are, and they can tell people where

1419
01:18:20.039 --> 01:18:21.880
<v Speaker 4>they live. And now you're going to put their families

1420
01:18:22.039 --> 01:18:23.920
<v Speaker 4>and everyone else in danger. And before you give me

1421
01:18:24.000 --> 01:18:27.319
<v Speaker 4>any kind of crap about where they're ripping families apart,

1422
01:18:27.720 --> 01:18:31.760
<v Speaker 4>the people that they're arresting overwhelmingly are people who have

1423
01:18:31.840 --> 01:18:34.119
<v Speaker 4>broken the law in the United States of America. They

1424
01:18:34.199 --> 01:18:38.119
<v Speaker 4>have some kind of deportation order for something. These are

1425
01:18:38.199 --> 01:18:41.560
<v Speaker 4>agents of the government. I don't love the government, but

1426
01:18:41.680 --> 01:18:44.760
<v Speaker 4>these are agents of the government, not rogue people who

1427
01:18:44.840 --> 01:18:47.439
<v Speaker 4>are just walking around snapping people up and throwing them

1428
01:18:47.479 --> 01:18:52.399
<v Speaker 4>in vans. So stop it, just stop it. When we

1429
01:18:52.520 --> 01:18:55.840
<v Speaker 4>get back, guys, gals, I need you to take about

1430
01:18:56.479 --> 01:18:59.079
<v Speaker 4>two minutes of your time and fill out a survey.

1431
01:18:59.560 --> 01:19:03.079
<v Speaker 4>The guver's heard that we all hate his ugly ass bridge,

1432
01:19:03.600 --> 01:19:05.279
<v Speaker 4>and now it's time to make sure he hears that

1433
01:19:05.520 --> 01:19:10.479
<v Speaker 4>loud and clear. I need you to do Colorado a solid.

1434
01:19:10.880 --> 01:19:14.359
<v Speaker 4>Okay do people still use that phrase? Grant do me

1435
01:19:14.439 --> 01:19:18.920
<v Speaker 4>a solid? I still like it. I'm bringing it back, Okay.

1436
01:19:19.319 --> 01:19:22.359
<v Speaker 4>I'm not hip anymore, though. Well, you know the best thing.

1437
01:19:23.640 --> 01:19:27.159
<v Speaker 4>The best thing about being old is that you don't

1438
01:19:27.199 --> 01:19:31.800
<v Speaker 4>care about being cool anymore, which actually makes you cooler, right,

1439
01:19:32.199 --> 01:19:38.399
<v Speaker 4>it's the geezer paradox well known. There's a survey now.

1440
01:19:38.640 --> 01:19:42.079
<v Speaker 4>Apparently word has gotten back to the governor that not

1441
01:19:42.199 --> 01:19:45.239
<v Speaker 4>only does Kyle Clark hate his walkway, everyone else in

1442
01:19:45.319 --> 01:19:47.920
<v Speaker 4>Colorado hates the walkway idea. If you've not seen this,

1443
01:19:48.520 --> 01:19:53.920
<v Speaker 4>he wants to build this twisting, meandering, multi million dollar,

1444
01:19:54.239 --> 01:19:58.840
<v Speaker 4>useless bit of walkway in front of the capitol, but

1445
01:19:59.000 --> 01:20:01.039
<v Speaker 4>only on one side of the front of the Capitol.

1446
01:20:01.079 --> 01:20:04.039
<v Speaker 4>It completely disrupts the balance of the entire thing. He

1447
01:20:04.439 --> 01:20:07.000
<v Speaker 4>envisions it being full of artwork or something like that,

1448
01:20:07.159 --> 01:20:09.000
<v Speaker 4>but we in reality know it will be full of

1449
01:20:09.079 --> 01:20:14.000
<v Speaker 4>homeless people. And you're in. So this is our chance, Colorado,

1450
01:20:15.119 --> 01:20:17.600
<v Speaker 4>this is our big chance to stop the madness.

1451
01:20:17.960 --> 01:20:18.079
<v Speaker 3>Now.

1452
01:20:18.159 --> 01:20:21.359
<v Speaker 4>I have put a link in multiple places. There's a

1453
01:20:21.439 --> 01:20:24.520
<v Speaker 4>link on my x account, there's a link on the

1454
01:20:24.600 --> 01:20:28.840
<v Speaker 4>blog today, but you can also just go, okay, listen

1455
01:20:28.880 --> 01:20:31.479
<v Speaker 4>to the url. Okay, it's of course the three ws.

1456
01:20:31.479 --> 01:20:38.520
<v Speaker 4>Then co Colorado one fifty walkway dot com CO one

1457
01:20:38.680 --> 01:20:43.319
<v Speaker 4>fifty one five zero CO one fifty walkway dot com.

1458
01:20:43.479 --> 01:20:45.960
<v Speaker 4>And there's a survey there, and I'm gonna walk you

1459
01:20:46.039 --> 01:20:47.800
<v Speaker 4>through the survey just to tell you which answers you

1460
01:20:47.800 --> 01:20:50.720
<v Speaker 4>should complete. Now you get to this big once you

1461
01:20:50.920 --> 01:20:53.199
<v Speaker 4>take the survey, you get this big one hundred Colorado,

1462
01:20:53.239 --> 01:20:56.680
<v Speaker 4>one hundred and fiftieth birthdays coming. What do you think

1463
01:20:56.720 --> 01:20:58.760
<v Speaker 4>of the proposed one hundred and fiftieth walkway at the

1464
01:20:58.800 --> 01:21:01.600
<v Speaker 4>state Capitol? And they ask, where's your zip code? Okay, perfect,

1465
01:21:01.640 --> 01:21:05.680
<v Speaker 4>put in a zip code. There you go submitting, and

1466
01:21:05.800 --> 01:21:08.199
<v Speaker 4>now there's a bunch of blah blah blah, a bunch

1467
01:21:08.279 --> 01:21:10.239
<v Speaker 4>of how cool it's going to be, a bunch of

1468
01:21:10.520 --> 01:21:14.199
<v Speaker 4>wouldn't it be amazing? A bunch of what people are saying.

1469
01:21:14.439 --> 01:21:16.039
<v Speaker 4>And then then we get to the questions and they

1470
01:21:16.079 --> 01:21:19.920
<v Speaker 4>are this voting closes on the twenty first. By the way,

1471
01:21:20.960 --> 01:21:24.079
<v Speaker 4>should Colorado proceed with the proposed one hundred and fiftieth

1472
01:21:24.079 --> 01:21:27.840
<v Speaker 4>anniversary walkway at the State Capital Complex? The answer is no.

1473
01:21:29.720 --> 01:21:32.760
<v Speaker 4>If Colorado does not proceed with the one hundred and

1474
01:21:32.760 --> 01:21:35.560
<v Speaker 4>fiftieth anniversary walkway, would you like to see and these

1475
01:21:35.600 --> 01:21:38.800
<v Speaker 4>are a multiple choice question, a major one hundred and

1476
01:21:38.840 --> 01:21:41.840
<v Speaker 4>fiftieth anniversary project in our state's capital city of Denver,

1477
01:21:42.840 --> 01:21:47.359
<v Speaker 4>or several smaller scale anniversary projects in other parts of

1478
01:21:47.399 --> 01:21:50.359
<v Speaker 4>the state that reflect our rich history and diverse culture,

1479
01:21:51.640 --> 01:21:53.960
<v Speaker 4>or no anniversary projects at all.

1480
01:21:54.560 --> 01:21:54.720
<v Speaker 6>Now.

1481
01:21:54.840 --> 01:21:57.000
<v Speaker 4>I voted for the second one because I think it

1482
01:21:57.000 --> 01:21:59.199
<v Speaker 4>would be really interesting to go to important places in

1483
01:21:59.239 --> 01:22:02.000
<v Speaker 4>Colorado and have a celebration to kind of spread the

1484
01:22:02.119 --> 01:22:05.600
<v Speaker 4>wealth about the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary to other

1485
01:22:05.640 --> 01:22:10.520
<v Speaker 4>parts of the state, not just Denver. If Colorado does

1486
01:22:10.760 --> 01:22:13.840
<v Speaker 4>proceed with the one hundred and fiftieth Anniversary walkway, would

1487
01:22:13.880 --> 01:22:16.600
<v Speaker 4>you like to see the full one hundred and fiftieth

1488
01:22:16.640 --> 01:22:20.159
<v Speaker 4>anniversary walkway built as planned, or the one hundred and

1489
01:22:20.159 --> 01:22:23.079
<v Speaker 4>fiftieth Anniversary Walkway scale back to a smaller project. I

1490
01:22:23.560 --> 01:22:27.479
<v Speaker 4>left that blank. You're not gonna trick me, mister governor.

1491
01:22:30.039 --> 01:22:32.560
<v Speaker 4>And then the last one, twenty twenty six is just

1492
01:22:32.680 --> 01:22:36.560
<v Speaker 4>around the corner. Are you more excited about Colorado's one

1493
01:22:36.640 --> 01:22:40.359
<v Speaker 4>hundred and fiftieth anniversary the United States two hundred and

1494
01:22:40.399 --> 01:22:43.560
<v Speaker 4>fiftieth anniversary or both equally, And I'll let you do

1495
01:22:43.640 --> 01:22:45.960
<v Speaker 4>what you pick them on that for you. For me,

1496
01:22:46.079 --> 01:22:48.399
<v Speaker 4>it's about the US anniversary, but that's just me. And

1497
01:22:48.439 --> 01:22:51.600
<v Speaker 4>then you can join the Governor's propaganda I mean mailing list.

1498
01:22:52.600 --> 01:22:55.960
<v Speaker 4>You can do that there. So CO one fifty walkway

1499
01:22:56.159 --> 01:22:59.159
<v Speaker 4>dot com. Just scroll through all the crap to get

1500
01:22:59.199 --> 01:23:01.239
<v Speaker 4>down to the survey at the bottom. We have to

1501
01:23:01.520 --> 01:23:06.920
<v Speaker 4>bury this pedestrian walkway before it even gets off the ground. People,

1502
01:23:08.279 --> 01:23:13.680
<v Speaker 4>this vanity project, this legacy nonsense. We have to make

1503
01:23:13.720 --> 01:23:16.439
<v Speaker 4>it go away. And the only way to do that

1504
01:23:16.720 --> 01:23:21.840
<v Speaker 4>is to resoundingly reject this in this survey, so the

1505
01:23:21.920 --> 01:23:25.439
<v Speaker 4>governor starts to understand how much we just don't want

1506
01:23:25.520 --> 01:23:30.600
<v Speaker 4>this just don't. So there you go, people, I just

1507
01:23:30.680 --> 01:23:32.680
<v Speaker 4>it literally. You saw how long and I read them

1508
01:23:32.720 --> 01:23:34.680
<v Speaker 4>out loud. You don't even need to read them out loud,

1509
01:23:34.720 --> 01:23:36.079
<v Speaker 4>so you could probably do the whole thing in about

1510
01:23:36.119 --> 01:23:39.920
<v Speaker 4>thirty seconds. Just remember, don't fall for the trick question

1511
01:23:40.880 --> 01:23:44.279
<v Speaker 4>about if we do build this monstrosity. That's not what

1512
01:23:44.359 --> 01:23:47.079
<v Speaker 4>they say, it's what I say, So don't fall for it,

1513
01:23:47.119 --> 01:23:49.279
<v Speaker 4>because they're kind of sneaky that way, all right, you guys.

1514
01:23:49.319 --> 01:23:51.199
<v Speaker 4>I got a bunch of other stories on the blog today,

1515
01:23:51.359 --> 01:23:58.760
<v Speaker 4>including oh I embedded an X thread just because it

1516
01:23:58.920 --> 01:24:02.199
<v Speaker 4>is an X thread, babies doing the cutest thing ever,

1517
01:24:02.439 --> 01:24:04.319
<v Speaker 4>and if you're having a bad day, I don't care

1518
01:24:04.880 --> 01:24:05.439
<v Speaker 4>who you are.

1519
01:24:05.840 --> 01:24:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Right.

1520
01:24:07.079 --> 01:24:09.560
<v Speaker 4>A baby discovering that they have control over their own

1521
01:24:09.640 --> 01:24:14.920
<v Speaker 4>foot is fascinating. A baby hearing a violin for the

1522
01:24:14.960 --> 01:24:20.159
<v Speaker 4>first time and being entranced by it fascinating and it'll

1523
01:24:20.159 --> 01:24:22.159
<v Speaker 4>make you feel good. I got a little misty. I

1524
01:24:22.239 --> 01:24:24.560
<v Speaker 4>did a couple of them. I did. It's true. Baby's

1525
01:24:24.600 --> 01:24:26.319
<v Speaker 4>doing cute things. You just can't go wrong with that.

1526
01:24:26.680 --> 01:24:30.079
<v Speaker 4>When we get back, I want to talk about the

1527
01:24:30.760 --> 01:24:34.079
<v Speaker 4>cuts that are coming to the federal budget. The recision

1528
01:24:34.319 --> 01:24:37.640
<v Speaker 4>process has started in DC and it looks like, at

1529
01:24:37.760 --> 01:24:41.760
<v Speaker 4>least out of the Senate, the cuts to PBS and

1530
01:24:42.680 --> 01:24:46.000
<v Speaker 4>NPR are going to go through. Not sad about that,

1531
01:24:47.239 --> 01:24:50.000
<v Speaker 4>but the Senate passed eight billion dollars worth of cuts

1532
01:24:50.279 --> 01:24:55.319
<v Speaker 4>and we're supposed to be excited about it. Yay, we'll

1533
01:24:55.319 --> 01:24:59.079
<v Speaker 4>talk about it next. When you send us a text,

1534
01:25:00.479 --> 01:25:04.079
<v Speaker 4>send all the thoughts in one. The text messages do

1535
01:25:04.239 --> 01:25:07.840
<v Speaker 4>not come in in order, okay, And if you send

1536
01:25:07.920 --> 01:25:11.119
<v Speaker 4>fifteen or twenty texts in a row, there's no guarantee

1537
01:25:11.159 --> 01:25:14.079
<v Speaker 4>they're gonna be in order. So now I don't even

1538
01:25:14.119 --> 01:25:17.439
<v Speaker 4>look at them, and it annoys the ever living crap

1539
01:25:17.560 --> 01:25:20.159
<v Speaker 4>out of me. Probably shouldn't mnit that, because now you guys,

1540
01:25:20.439 --> 01:25:25.079
<v Speaker 4>you're bad actors. Anyway, I got a couple stories on

1541
01:25:25.119 --> 01:25:26.800
<v Speaker 4>the bar on the blog that I want to talk

1542
01:25:26.840 --> 01:25:29.399
<v Speaker 4>to you. Great, let me ask you a question as

1543
01:25:29.479 --> 01:25:33.520
<v Speaker 4>a uh, you're like a younger excuse me, Yeah, you're

1544
01:25:33.520 --> 01:25:37.479
<v Speaker 4>a younger, younger millennial. Right, you're like at the end, yes, okay,

1545
01:25:37.920 --> 01:25:43.000
<v Speaker 4>as a younger millennial. How much network television broadcast network

1546
01:25:43.039 --> 01:25:48.399
<v Speaker 4>television do you watch, like on actual TV channels? Yeah? None?

1547
01:25:48.880 --> 01:25:51.600
<v Speaker 5>Okay, And well, I mean I watched shows, right, but

1548
01:25:51.760 --> 01:25:54.079
<v Speaker 5>like that's after like, like I said, I think I

1549
01:25:54.159 --> 01:25:55.920
<v Speaker 5>said yesterday, we just watched The Bear.

1550
01:25:56.319 --> 01:25:58.359
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we didn't watch it when it was airing on FX.

1551
01:25:58.520 --> 01:26:02.119
<v Speaker 4>I watched it on Hulu. Network is not a broadcast network.

1552
01:26:02.159 --> 01:26:05.960
<v Speaker 4>We're talking NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox News. You're ones you

1553
01:26:06.039 --> 01:26:08.279
<v Speaker 4>can get over the air on an antenna. Yeah. The

1554
01:26:08.359 --> 01:26:11.840
<v Speaker 4>only thing I'm watching on those networks as sports. For

1555
01:26:11.960 --> 01:26:14.840
<v Speaker 4>the first time since Neilsen began tracking TV use by

1556
01:26:14.920 --> 01:26:18.199
<v Speaker 4>platform four years ago, and probably the first time ever,

1557
01:26:19.439 --> 01:26:22.279
<v Speaker 4>over the air networks accounted for less than twenty percent

1558
01:26:22.439 --> 01:26:26.479
<v Speaker 4>of viewing in June. That is insane to me.

1559
01:26:26.800 --> 01:26:29.479
<v Speaker 5>It's crazy just from the way I grew up, because

1560
01:26:29.520 --> 01:26:31.479
<v Speaker 5>that's what everything was on Bret back.

1561
01:26:31.359 --> 01:26:34.399
<v Speaker 4>When I was a kid. We already had three channels,

1562
01:26:34.439 --> 01:26:37.239
<v Speaker 4>and we had this giant Antetna that was by our

1563
01:26:37.319 --> 01:26:40.520
<v Speaker 4>house that went up like forty feet. It might have

1564
01:26:40.560 --> 01:26:42.239
<v Speaker 4>been a little too close to the house because we

1565
01:26:42.279 --> 01:26:44.720
<v Speaker 4>could use it to climb onto the roof. Someone did

1566
01:26:44.800 --> 01:26:49.920
<v Speaker 4>not think that through, okay at all. So now you

1567
01:26:50.000 --> 01:26:52.079
<v Speaker 4>got cable, you got all that stuff, You got everything

1568
01:26:52.119 --> 01:26:57.119
<v Speaker 4>going on. To the Texters who are now texting one words,

1569
01:26:57.239 --> 01:26:59.159
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to block you from now on and you

1570
01:26:59.199 --> 01:27:00.760
<v Speaker 4>will not be able to tech any shows.

1571
01:27:01.079 --> 01:27:02.640
<v Speaker 5>Well, and it's just like, if you really do want

1572
01:27:02.680 --> 01:27:05.840
<v Speaker 5>to get your point across, it's important. There's so many

1573
01:27:05.920 --> 01:27:07.720
<v Speaker 5>texts coming in you're not gonna go to.

1574
01:27:07.920 --> 01:27:11.439
<v Speaker 4>Jumble of nonsense and it is so irritating. That's crazy

1575
01:27:11.479 --> 01:27:13.079
<v Speaker 4>and they'll never get rid of Yeah, and I'm just

1576
01:27:13.199 --> 01:27:15.359
<v Speaker 4>not reading now, just because we also see the phone numbers,

1577
01:27:15.359 --> 01:27:18.760
<v Speaker 4>you guys, so I know who's doing it. That's the thing.

1578
01:27:19.039 --> 01:27:22.840
<v Speaker 4>Please stop. Just put everything in one sole im asking.

1579
01:27:24.199 --> 01:27:27.600
<v Speaker 4>So now you've got a broadcast television under twenty percent

1580
01:27:27.720 --> 01:27:29.800
<v Speaker 4>for the first time. Now, part of the problem is

1581
01:27:29.840 --> 01:27:34.600
<v Speaker 4>that broadcast television is still using a broadcast television calendar. Right,

1582
01:27:34.760 --> 01:27:37.359
<v Speaker 4>you got new shows coming up in the fall. Did

1583
01:27:37.439 --> 01:27:39.479
<v Speaker 4>you watch any new shows that you're like, yeah, I

1584
01:27:39.560 --> 01:27:40.960
<v Speaker 4>kind of want to see that come back. In the fall.

1585
01:27:41.279 --> 01:27:46.319
<v Speaker 4>We watched one called Oh no, this is part of

1586
01:27:46.359 --> 01:27:48.760
<v Speaker 4>the problem. Oh, it's it's a show I really like

1587
01:27:48.800 --> 01:27:51.680
<v Speaker 4>to leave character she was always in It's Always Sunny

1588
01:27:51.720 --> 01:27:54.560
<v Speaker 4>in Philadelphia. The chick from that show, The Blonde Chick.

1589
01:27:54.640 --> 01:27:56.640
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, where she's like a lawyer or something. No,

1590
01:27:56.800 --> 01:27:59.439
<v Speaker 4>she's actually a super genius single mom who helps the

1591
01:27:59.479 --> 01:28:02.560
<v Speaker 4>solve crimes. I love crime procedurals, like I just enjoy them.

1592
01:28:02.640 --> 01:28:05.159
<v Speaker 4>I have seen a couple of episodes. I loved that show,

1593
01:28:05.239 --> 01:28:07.680
<v Speaker 4>and I'm excited for it to come back. But broadcast

1594
01:28:07.720 --> 01:28:09.439
<v Speaker 4>television is like, oh, we're going to give you new

1595
01:28:09.479 --> 01:28:11.520
<v Speaker 4>shows in the fall. In the spring, and then the summer,

1596
01:28:11.600 --> 01:28:14.239
<v Speaker 4>you're supposed to watch repeats. Guess what, we're not watching

1597
01:28:14.279 --> 01:28:18.239
<v Speaker 4>the repeats. I can't remember any is Abbott Elementary? Is

1598
01:28:18.279 --> 01:28:20.720
<v Speaker 4>that that's still on? Yeah, that's that's a broadcast shots.

1599
01:28:20.760 --> 01:28:22.840
<v Speaker 4>That's a good one. Yeah there was another one. But

1600
01:28:23.000 --> 01:28:25.600
<v Speaker 4>now High Potential, that's the show. I'm trying to think, Yes,

1601
01:28:25.720 --> 01:28:30.159
<v Speaker 4>High Potential, I have some very entertaining They're very entertaining.

1602
01:28:30.479 --> 01:28:34.439
<v Speaker 4>So ghosts that's funny too. That's a very funny concept.

1603
01:28:34.600 --> 01:28:37.119
<v Speaker 4>That's a good show. Back in the seventies and the sixties,

1604
01:28:37.319 --> 01:28:39.560
<v Speaker 4>you had all these wack a doodle concepts that got

1605
01:28:39.600 --> 01:28:41.640
<v Speaker 4>made into shows. I would like to see us go

1606
01:28:41.760 --> 01:28:44.359
<v Speaker 4>back to wack a doodle concepts for shows like ghosts,

1607
01:28:44.800 --> 01:28:46.640
<v Speaker 4>which is that what did she move into a house?

1608
01:28:46.680 --> 01:28:49.920
<v Speaker 4>And the ghosts of many many different generations still live

1609
01:28:49.960 --> 01:28:52.600
<v Speaker 4>in the in the house and it works. And that

1610
01:28:52.800 --> 01:28:55.039
<v Speaker 4>I mean, the costume budget's got to be nothing because

1611
01:28:55.079 --> 01:28:57.279
<v Speaker 4>they wear the same costumes all the time, every time.

1612
01:28:57.399 --> 01:28:59.840
<v Speaker 4>The guy with the arrow yea on through his head exactly.

1613
01:29:01.159 --> 01:29:04.880
<v Speaker 4>So there you go, Mandy, none of them. I wouldn't

1614
01:29:04.880 --> 01:29:07.640
<v Speaker 4>even know how. At this point, everything is streaming. Well,

1615
01:29:07.720 --> 01:29:10.680
<v Speaker 4>that's the other thing. A lot of people gave up

1616
01:29:10.680 --> 01:29:13.680
<v Speaker 4>their regular cable because streaming was gonna be so much cheaper,

1617
01:29:13.720 --> 01:29:16.560
<v Speaker 4>And now streaming costs as much where if not more.

1618
01:29:16.720 --> 01:29:21.319
<v Speaker 5>It's kind of like Airbnb hotels, yes, yes, or Uber

1619
01:29:21.399 --> 01:29:22.520
<v Speaker 5>and Lyft and cabs.

1620
01:29:23.000 --> 01:29:23.119
<v Speaker 3>Oh.

1621
01:29:23.199 --> 01:29:25.479
<v Speaker 4>In New York City, a cab is almost always cheaper.

1622
01:29:25.560 --> 01:29:28.159
<v Speaker 4>I check. I have the taxi ab, I have the

1623
01:29:28.239 --> 01:29:30.560
<v Speaker 4>taxi app, and I have Uber and Lyft, and I

1624
01:29:30.640 --> 01:29:32.479
<v Speaker 4>will check to see how much it's going to cost

1625
01:29:32.520 --> 01:29:34.800
<v Speaker 4>me to get somewhere on all three platforms, and the

1626
01:29:34.840 --> 01:29:38.840
<v Speaker 4>taxi cab in New York City is almost always cheaper always.

1627
01:29:39.159 --> 01:29:43.039
<v Speaker 4>You can find my blog this text are asked by

1628
01:29:43.119 --> 01:29:47.680
<v Speaker 4>going to mandy'sblog dot com or Randy Cromwell dot com.

1629
01:29:48.880 --> 01:29:51.399
<v Speaker 4>I know that direct is never gonna not I'm always

1630
01:29:51.399 --> 01:29:54.920
<v Speaker 4>gonna enjoy that always. And you can look for the

1631
01:29:55.000 --> 01:29:57.239
<v Speaker 4>latest posts and look for the headline that usually says

1632
01:29:57.359 --> 01:29:59.600
<v Speaker 4>today's date and blog that's going to be a blog.

1633
01:29:59.640 --> 01:30:02.079
<v Speaker 4>You might have to scroll over because we do post

1634
01:30:02.159 --> 01:30:06.920
<v Speaker 4>interviews there as well. Mandy, Nobody wants this great show

1635
01:30:07.039 --> 01:30:10.359
<v Speaker 4>but on Netflix, I already watched that. Nobody wants this

1636
01:30:10.680 --> 01:30:13.760
<v Speaker 4>so good. Adam Brody plays a young rabbi who falls

1637
01:30:13.760 --> 01:30:17.039
<v Speaker 4>in love with the Shiksa Kristin Bell, and they are

1638
01:30:17.239 --> 01:30:20.960
<v Speaker 4>delightful together. I never watched it, but my wife obsessed

1639
01:30:21.279 --> 01:30:25.199
<v Speaker 4>so good. It's so so good. And I think Kristen

1640
01:30:25.239 --> 01:30:27.640
<v Speaker 4>Bell and Adam Brody are nominated for an Emmy, so

1641
01:30:27.760 --> 01:30:29.439
<v Speaker 4>the any awards, Like I was gonna put him on

1642
01:30:29.479 --> 01:30:32.680
<v Speaker 4>the blog today, but they did not nominate.

1643
01:30:32.359 --> 01:30:37.640
<v Speaker 5>Gutfeld for talk show and that's ridiculous. I mean, I

1644
01:30:37.760 --> 01:30:39.720
<v Speaker 5>don't watch it, but I know that it has a

1645
01:30:39.880 --> 01:30:40.520
<v Speaker 5>huge following.

1646
01:30:40.840 --> 01:30:44.920
<v Speaker 4>It's not just that it's so funny. It's so much

1647
01:30:44.960 --> 01:30:47.520
<v Speaker 4>funnier than Stephen Colbert. At this point, it really is.

1648
01:30:47.600 --> 01:30:49.840
<v Speaker 4>It just goes to show. Like everything else in Hollywood,

1649
01:30:50.119 --> 01:30:54.520
<v Speaker 4>there is a serious anti right bias dy. Back in

1650
01:30:54.640 --> 01:30:58.119
<v Speaker 4>my day, nineteen seventy, there were five stations in Denver.

1651
01:30:58.279 --> 01:31:02.680
<v Speaker 4>Well weren't too lucky. We had PBS, CBS, and ABC.

1652
01:31:02.920 --> 01:31:05.319
<v Speaker 4>We did not have NBC, and I missed the entire

1653
01:31:05.399 --> 01:31:08.520
<v Speaker 4>Cosby Show. Thing. Did not see the Cosby Show until

1654
01:31:08.520 --> 01:31:16.720
<v Speaker 4>I went to college. Yep, I do watch broadcast channels

1655
01:31:16.760 --> 01:31:19.199
<v Speaker 4>quite a bit. NCIS is my favorite show, and I

1656
01:31:19.279 --> 01:31:21.279
<v Speaker 4>always watch Jeopardy. I gotta tell you, guys, I've been

1657
01:31:21.319 --> 01:31:26.039
<v Speaker 4>watching NCIS since the beginning, and now I just watch

1658
01:31:26.119 --> 01:31:28.119
<v Speaker 4>it because I'm committed. Right. It's like, I'm not going

1659
01:31:28.199 --> 01:31:30.239
<v Speaker 4>to be a quitter. If this show is going to

1660
01:31:30.279 --> 01:31:32.199
<v Speaker 4>be on fifty years, by god, I'm gonna watch it

1661
01:31:32.239 --> 01:31:34.640
<v Speaker 4>for fifty flipp in years, even the years that it's

1662
01:31:34.720 --> 01:31:38.159
<v Speaker 4>just not very good. I think the cast they have

1663
01:31:38.279 --> 01:31:40.359
<v Speaker 4>now is pretty good. We'll see what happens. Mandy. I

1664
01:31:40.439 --> 01:31:44.079
<v Speaker 4>watched Mysteries on PBS Channel six. They had many series

1665
01:31:44.119 --> 01:31:46.680
<v Speaker 4>that are really good in a little edgy you just

1666
01:31:46.720 --> 01:31:49.640
<v Speaker 4>want to keep watching. PBS has always had quality programming,

1667
01:31:49.680 --> 01:31:51.199
<v Speaker 4>and when that was one of the few channels that

1668
01:31:51.279 --> 01:31:55.199
<v Speaker 4>we had, I grew up watching Masterpiece Theater with Alistair?

1669
01:31:55.800 --> 01:32:01.199
<v Speaker 4>Was it Alistair Cook? Welcome to Misterpiece Theater. Tonight's on,

1670
01:32:01.399 --> 01:32:04.680
<v Speaker 4>I Claudius and you'd give you the little synopsis of

1671
01:32:04.800 --> 01:32:09.279
<v Speaker 4>what happened in the last few episodes, Mandy. Point number one,

1672
01:32:09.359 --> 01:32:13.239
<v Speaker 4>viewership percentage goes down for so many reasons, more competition

1673
01:32:13.359 --> 01:32:16.760
<v Speaker 4>and sources. Point number two, it's too expensive. Wages haven't

1674
01:32:16.960 --> 01:32:20.159
<v Speaker 4>increased at the same rate as inflation and expenses. YouTube

1675
01:32:20.279 --> 01:32:23.159
<v Speaker 4>has tons of free stuff and can go on any TV.

1676
01:32:23.520 --> 01:32:26.000
<v Speaker 4>Xbox has YouTube, Huluu all these apps. You don't even

1677
01:32:26.039 --> 01:32:30.680
<v Speaker 4>need a smart TV and Samsung point three? Are all

1678
01:32:30.760 --> 01:32:34.119
<v Speaker 4>my rants like this at every station? Am I a buffoon?

1679
01:32:35.119 --> 01:32:37.680
<v Speaker 4>Do they come in in weird orders? All my efforts

1680
01:32:37.720 --> 01:32:41.199
<v Speaker 4>defending Kobe the game's only started. I don't care about Kobe.

1681
01:32:42.039 --> 01:32:43.760
<v Speaker 4>I don't mean to be a jerk, but I there's

1682
01:32:43.840 --> 01:32:45.600
<v Speaker 4>not even enough words to tell you how little I

1683
01:32:45.680 --> 01:32:49.039
<v Speaker 4>care about Kobe. I do uber and lyft for the

1684
01:32:49.159 --> 01:32:51.279
<v Speaker 4>law for the life of me, I don't know how

1685
01:32:51.319 --> 01:32:54.760
<v Speaker 4>people afford it as their daily transportation. I only get

1686
01:32:54.800 --> 01:32:56.840
<v Speaker 4>seventy percent of the fare, and I feel like I'm

1687
01:32:56.920 --> 01:32:59.880
<v Speaker 4>robbing them. You know what, You're just engaged in a

1688
01:33:00.239 --> 01:33:06.000
<v Speaker 4>capitalist exchange, that's all. Mandy, I live in southeast Wyoming,

1689
01:33:06.159 --> 01:33:09.039
<v Speaker 4>eight miles from the Colorado border, picked up a thirty

1690
01:33:09.159 --> 01:33:12.319
<v Speaker 4>dollars digital antenna pointed at south and get all the

1691
01:33:12.359 --> 01:33:14.920
<v Speaker 4>Denver stations no charge. And that's what a lot of

1692
01:33:14.920 --> 01:33:18.119
<v Speaker 4>people who rely on streaming do now for the network stations.

1693
01:33:18.319 --> 01:33:20.560
<v Speaker 4>But I don't know how they would get credit for that,

1694
01:33:21.520 --> 01:33:24.119
<v Speaker 4>and maybe that's why it seems like their numbers are

1695
01:33:24.199 --> 01:33:26.399
<v Speaker 4>dipping so much. That's a good point. I didn't even

1696
01:33:26.439 --> 01:33:28.520
<v Speaker 4>think about that because I know a lot of people

1697
01:33:28.600 --> 01:33:31.239
<v Speaker 4>that have the over the air and digital antennas and

1698
01:33:31.319 --> 01:33:34.039
<v Speaker 4>they work really really well. I mean, they're digital quality.

1699
01:33:35.199 --> 01:33:37.720
<v Speaker 4>So you know, I'm not willing to put a fork

1700
01:33:37.880 --> 01:33:41.680
<v Speaker 4>in network television's stomach just yet and say they're done.

1701
01:33:42.680 --> 01:33:45.840
<v Speaker 4>But it is definitely not the world it used to

1702
01:33:45.920 --> 01:33:50.119
<v Speaker 4>be where they kind of ran everything. Now I want

1703
01:33:50.159 --> 01:33:52.359
<v Speaker 4>to switch gears for just a second. You know, Trump

1704
01:33:52.439 --> 01:33:55.439
<v Speaker 4>has been at Jerome Powell in the FED for some

1705
01:33:55.600 --> 01:33:58.319
<v Speaker 4>time now, But wouldn't it be interesting if the thing

1706
01:33:58.479 --> 01:34:02.039
<v Speaker 4>that leads to Jerome Powell being axed or quitting is

1707
01:34:02.159 --> 01:34:06.399
<v Speaker 4>the insane renovation that they are doing at the Federal

1708
01:34:06.479 --> 01:34:12.920
<v Speaker 4>Reserves headquarters in Washington, d C. The Federal Reserve is renovating,

1709
01:34:13.199 --> 01:34:17.680
<v Speaker 4>and I think that's important, renovating two massive buildings, but

1710
01:34:17.800 --> 01:34:21.359
<v Speaker 4>not that massive, two big buildings in Washington, D C.

1711
01:34:21.800 --> 01:34:24.520
<v Speaker 4>And the price tag, Grant, take a guess on how

1712
01:34:24.560 --> 01:34:28.000
<v Speaker 4>much it's costing to renovate the Federal Reserve buildings. Give

1713
01:34:28.039 --> 01:34:31.640
<v Speaker 4>me a guess, Grant, Grant, give me a guess. I

1714
01:34:31.800 --> 01:34:33.319
<v Speaker 4>just want you to guess to see how wrong you are.

1715
01:34:34.479 --> 01:34:37.000
<v Speaker 4>They're renovating the Federal Reserve buildings in Washington, d C.

1716
01:34:37.159 --> 01:34:40.640
<v Speaker 4>Two buildings. How much is the price tag right now?

1717
01:34:42.720 --> 01:34:47.920
<v Speaker 4>Seventy four million dollars? That is adorable, Grant, right now,

1718
01:34:48.800 --> 01:34:53.359
<v Speaker 4>the price tag is you're sitting down two point five

1719
01:34:53.960 --> 01:35:02.239
<v Speaker 4>billion dollars billion. I almost have like a Brewster's Millions moment.

1720
01:35:02.640 --> 01:35:06.800
<v Speaker 4>Have you ever seen millions with priory? Yes, where he

1721
01:35:06.840 --> 01:35:08.920
<v Speaker 4>gets like ten million dollars and he gets to keep

1722
01:35:09.000 --> 01:35:11.039
<v Speaker 4>more if he spends the ten million in thirty days

1723
01:35:11.119 --> 01:35:14.199
<v Speaker 4>or something like that. I mean, don't get me wrong.

1724
01:35:14.239 --> 01:35:17.119
<v Speaker 4>I have amazing taste. I can walk into a furniture

1725
01:35:17.159 --> 01:35:19.439
<v Speaker 4>store and the only thing that I like is the

1726
01:35:19.479 --> 01:35:22.359
<v Speaker 4>most expensive thing in the furniture store, and I find

1727
01:35:22.399 --> 01:35:24.640
<v Speaker 4>that out before I look at any of the prices.

1728
01:35:24.720 --> 01:35:27.680
<v Speaker 4>I have incredibly expensive taste. I think I would struggle

1729
01:35:28.439 --> 01:35:31.520
<v Speaker 4>to spend two point five billion dollars on a renovation.

1730
01:35:32.720 --> 01:35:36.279
<v Speaker 4>They just built a new Universal Studios for five hundred

1731
01:35:36.359 --> 01:35:38.159
<v Speaker 4>million from scratch.

1732
01:35:39.720 --> 01:35:39.880
<v Speaker 3>Two.

1733
01:35:40.039 --> 01:35:42.680
<v Speaker 4>I mean I can't even what and think how many

1734
01:35:42.800 --> 01:35:44.520
<v Speaker 4>things are in Universal Studios?

1735
01:35:44.640 --> 01:35:44.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

1736
01:35:44.800 --> 01:35:48.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, all the electronics and everything else. The President is

1737
01:35:49.199 --> 01:35:56.159
<v Speaker 4>extremely concerned or excuse me, extremely troubled by your management

1738
01:35:56.319 --> 01:35:59.920
<v Speaker 4>of the Federal Reserve system. Instead of attempting to write

1739
01:36:00.000 --> 01:36:02.800
<v Speaker 4>the Fed's fiscal ship, you have plowed ahead with an

1740
01:36:02.880 --> 01:36:08.560
<v Speaker 4>ostentatious overhaul of your Washington, DC headquarters. That from a letter,

1741
01:36:10.479 --> 01:36:14.840
<v Speaker 4>and that was from Russell Vaught, the Office of Management

1742
01:36:14.920 --> 01:36:17.840
<v Speaker 4>and Budget Director, a letter to Jerome Powell. It would

1743
01:36:17.840 --> 01:36:20.880
<v Speaker 4>be fascinating if this is the thing that got Jerome

1744
01:36:20.960 --> 01:36:23.960
<v Speaker 4>Powell kicked out. Jerome Powell's being blamed for something that

1745
01:36:24.079 --> 01:36:28.960
<v Speaker 4>is not his fault, and that is mortgage rates. Because

1746
01:36:29.199 --> 01:36:36.000
<v Speaker 4>though lower mortgage rates are often correlated with lower mortgage rates,

1747
01:36:36.199 --> 01:36:39.359
<v Speaker 4>they are not necessarily connected. It's the ten year treasury

1748
01:36:39.479 --> 01:36:42.119
<v Speaker 4>that mortgage rates are more indexed to for a variety

1749
01:36:42.159 --> 01:36:44.079
<v Speaker 4>of reasons, mostly having to do with the fact that

1750
01:36:44.199 --> 01:36:46.920
<v Speaker 4>a mortgages a long term investment, not a short term investment.

1751
01:36:49.119 --> 01:36:52.119
<v Speaker 4>And the reason that those two things are correlated most

1752
01:36:52.159 --> 01:36:54.319
<v Speaker 4>of the time low interest rates and good mortage rates

1753
01:36:54.359 --> 01:36:59.000
<v Speaker 4>is because that's when our economy is getting ready. It

1754
01:36:59.119 --> 01:37:02.920
<v Speaker 4>booms with low interest rates. We've got low inflation, we're

1755
01:37:03.039 --> 01:37:05.560
<v Speaker 4>employment is good, so interest rates can be low, and

1756
01:37:05.680 --> 01:37:08.920
<v Speaker 4>the economy is usually roaring, which means that investors will

1757
01:37:08.960 --> 01:37:13.159
<v Speaker 4>buy our bonds. When they won't buy our bonds, then

1758
01:37:13.199 --> 01:37:15.680
<v Speaker 4>the price of a ten year bond yield goes up.

1759
01:37:16.279 --> 01:37:17.920
<v Speaker 4>And that's where we've been. And I think until we

1760
01:37:18.000 --> 01:37:23.479
<v Speaker 4>show some seriousness to really cut spending, not just nine

1761
01:37:23.560 --> 01:37:27.760
<v Speaker 4>million dollars that they're probably gonna cut through recisions, those

1762
01:37:28.000 --> 01:37:30.479
<v Speaker 4>investors are going to be a little more cautious. And

1763
01:37:30.600 --> 01:37:32.520
<v Speaker 4>that's going to keep that ten year treasury wheeled up

1764
01:37:32.520 --> 01:37:33.880
<v Speaker 4>where it is now, and that's going to keep the

1765
01:37:33.920 --> 01:37:37.159
<v Speaker 4>housing market locked up until one of two things happen.

1766
01:37:37.279 --> 01:37:39.199
<v Speaker 4>People just decide screw it. I'm going to take the

1767
01:37:39.239 --> 01:37:42.680
<v Speaker 4>mortgage at six point seven and figure it out later.

1768
01:37:44.680 --> 01:37:47.399
<v Speaker 4>But you know, we're in a tough situation. I don't

1769
01:37:47.399 --> 01:37:50.199
<v Speaker 4>think Jerome Powell has done a good job, to be clear.

1770
01:37:51.039 --> 01:37:55.640
<v Speaker 4>I think he's slept on what he said was transitory inflation,

1771
01:37:55.920 --> 01:38:02.520
<v Speaker 4>which clearly wasn't clearly was never transitory oriinflation. And he's

1772
01:38:02.600 --> 01:38:06.840
<v Speaker 4>just he's not done a great job managing things. Mandy,

1773
01:38:06.880 --> 01:38:09.319
<v Speaker 4>that's about what Ross is spending on trees, not bad.

1774
01:38:10.960 --> 01:38:14.119
<v Speaker 4>Wait is he building the Ross Mahaja? When Susan Witkin

1775
01:38:14.199 --> 01:38:18.039
<v Speaker 4>was renovating her house, I called it the Susan the

1776
01:38:18.159 --> 01:38:22.199
<v Speaker 4>Susan mahal as in the Taj Mahal. Right, I'm just

1777
01:38:22.239 --> 01:38:24.279
<v Speaker 4>gonna start calling Ross's the Ross Mahal.

1778
01:38:24.800 --> 01:38:25.279
<v Speaker 6>I like that.

1779
01:38:25.479 --> 01:38:25.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

1780
01:38:26.000 --> 01:38:29.800
<v Speaker 5>Well, every commercial I hear he does for construction companies

1781
01:38:31.119 --> 01:38:34.119
<v Speaker 5>and more rooms exactly exactly.

1782
01:38:35.479 --> 01:38:41.359
<v Speaker 4>Mandy got to pay the union workers. Yeah, probably so anyway, Mandy.

1783
01:38:41.920 --> 01:38:45.840
<v Speaker 4>Media and Communications Networks. Reagan's FCC eliminated regulations like the

1784
01:38:45.920 --> 01:38:48.760
<v Speaker 4>Fairness Doctrine in nineteen eighty seven, enabling the growth of

1785
01:38:48.840 --> 01:38:51.560
<v Speaker 4>conservative media networks such as talk radio and cable news.

1786
01:38:52.000 --> 01:38:57.000
<v Speaker 4>Democrats generally supported maintaining regulations to ensure balanced media coverage,

1787
01:38:57.239 --> 01:39:02.279
<v Speaker 4>which could be seen as an effort to contain media expansion. Oddly, though,

1788
01:39:02.640 --> 01:39:06.479
<v Speaker 4>the Democrats are not demanding that the publicly funded networks

1789
01:39:06.720 --> 01:39:09.279
<v Speaker 4>do a better job at presenting both sides. If they

1790
01:39:09.359 --> 01:39:12.479
<v Speaker 4>really believed in it, they could absolutely enforce the fairness

1791
01:39:12.520 --> 01:39:15.760
<v Speaker 4>doctrine on public radio. But I don't hear them calling

1792
01:39:15.840 --> 01:39:18.399
<v Speaker 4>for that. It's so weird. We're either about to have

1793
01:39:18.600 --> 01:39:22.439
<v Speaker 4>rain or an alien invasion. That's what it looks like outside.

1794
01:39:22.680 --> 01:39:25.159
<v Speaker 4>I'm hoping for aliens. Well, I didn't bring my umbrella in,

1795
01:39:25.319 --> 01:39:29.199
<v Speaker 4>so I am too. I certainly don't need rain like this. No,

1796
01:39:29.319 --> 01:39:30.960
<v Speaker 4>I do need rain, I just need it at my house.

1797
01:39:31.079 --> 01:39:33.840
<v Speaker 4>It looks a little green, doesn't it. That's scary because

1798
01:39:33.840 --> 01:39:35.319
<v Speaker 4>that's the really tornado stuff.

1799
01:39:35.399 --> 01:39:35.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1800
01:39:36.880 --> 01:39:41.319
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it looks sketchy out there. We'll see. I'm hoping

1801
01:39:41.399 --> 01:39:43.159
<v Speaker 4>I can get done and like race to my car

1802
01:39:43.239 --> 01:39:50.880
<v Speaker 4>and at least grab my umbrella. Mandy, Well, what you've

1803
01:39:50.920 --> 01:39:55.000
<v Speaker 4>got to say? Billion, like doctor Evil, two point five

1804
01:39:55.560 --> 01:39:59.079
<v Speaker 4>billion dollars hand too, of course you can. I mean,

1805
01:39:59.079 --> 01:40:02.079
<v Speaker 4>if you're going to do an impre commit dude, I

1806
01:40:02.119 --> 01:40:06.640
<v Speaker 4>think the Cowboys Stadium costs two point five billion Mandy.

1807
01:40:06.680 --> 01:40:08.479
<v Speaker 4>I still have an old school big antenna on the

1808
01:40:08.560 --> 01:40:11.359
<v Speaker 4>house and never miss an episode of This Old House

1809
01:40:11.439 --> 01:40:16.880
<v Speaker 4>on PBS. I still miss Bob Bob Bob. What was

1810
01:40:16.920 --> 01:40:20.199
<v Speaker 4>Bob fila? Yes, Bob vila from this Old House. We

1811
01:40:20.279 --> 01:40:21.800
<v Speaker 4>used to watch This Old House when I was a kid.

1812
01:40:22.520 --> 01:40:24.640
<v Speaker 4>Maybe that's my love for you know what, I might

1813
01:40:24.760 --> 01:40:27.840
<v Speaker 4>do a whole hour tomorrow on what the blank is

1814
01:40:27.920 --> 01:40:31.079
<v Speaker 4>happening at HGTV? Okay, because I have one favorite network

1815
01:40:31.840 --> 01:40:34.560
<v Speaker 4>and it is HGTV, and they are canceling shows left

1816
01:40:34.600 --> 01:40:37.279
<v Speaker 4>and right, and they canceled two of my favorites. Did

1817
01:40:37.319 --> 01:40:39.359
<v Speaker 4>you post something about it recently? I'm so mad I

1818
01:40:40.920 --> 01:40:44.119
<v Speaker 4>right now. I was like, what are we doing now?

1819
01:40:44.159 --> 01:40:46.199
<v Speaker 4>They have like dumb eighties movies on there, not even

1820
01:40:46.279 --> 01:40:50.239
<v Speaker 4>good ones, like dumb ones. Don't mess with my channel.

1821
01:40:50.319 --> 01:40:54.520
<v Speaker 4>People don't mess with it. Do you think they're gonna

1822
01:40:54.520 --> 01:40:57.560
<v Speaker 4>have Pacburrow racing on the OA Show? Ryan Edwards? Since

1823
01:40:57.560 --> 01:41:00.880
<v Speaker 4>you're in here, I'd like to get your thoughts good. Yeah,

1824
01:41:01.199 --> 01:41:03.960
<v Speaker 4>fit my way. HGTV is so funny because my parents

1825
01:41:04.079 --> 01:41:06.800
<v Speaker 4>love this channel. I love it. They just no stop

1826
01:41:06.880 --> 01:41:09.159
<v Speaker 4>watching them, Like, are you guys gonna do renovations? Like no, no, no, no,

1827
01:41:09.760 --> 01:41:12.119
<v Speaker 4>I was just like watching it. I was like, well,

1828
01:41:12.159 --> 01:41:14.119
<v Speaker 4>are you saying it like getting some ideas? No, no, no,

1829
01:41:14.520 --> 01:41:16.960
<v Speaker 4>we just we just really enjoy it. I like to

1830
01:41:17.079 --> 01:41:19.119
<v Speaker 4>keep on trend, so when I do go to sell

1831
01:41:19.199 --> 01:41:22.079
<v Speaker 4>my house, I'll know quickly how to make it work

1832
01:41:22.199 --> 01:41:25.560
<v Speaker 4>for this when we we've remodeled our entire house over

1833
01:41:25.560 --> 01:41:27.479
<v Speaker 4>the last ten years, Like at every room in our

1834
01:41:27.520 --> 01:41:30.319
<v Speaker 4>house has been completely redone, but some of them, like

1835
01:41:30.439 --> 01:41:33.119
<v Speaker 4>generally speaking, I go just classic. I don't want anything

1836
01:41:33.199 --> 01:41:34.640
<v Speaker 4>that's going to be trendy. I don't want any of

1837
01:41:34.680 --> 01:41:37.600
<v Speaker 4>that crap. I'm just like something easily adaptable with a

1838
01:41:37.640 --> 01:41:41.520
<v Speaker 4>different backslash kind of stuff. And HGTV helps me, first

1839
01:41:41.520 --> 01:41:43.520
<v Speaker 4>of all, know I am never doing that my house

1840
01:41:43.920 --> 01:41:45.960
<v Speaker 4>because some of these trends they come out and they're

1841
01:41:46.039 --> 01:41:48.279
<v Speaker 4>just you're like, well, you're going to regret the crap

1842
01:41:48.319 --> 01:41:50.359
<v Speaker 4>out of that in two years. Like that's gonna be

1843
01:41:50.520 --> 01:41:54.800
<v Speaker 4>everyone painting their brick. Oh I don't mind painted brick,

1844
01:41:54.880 --> 01:41:58.680
<v Speaker 4>but be judicious about it. Okay, that's all I'm saying. No,

1845
01:41:58.920 --> 01:42:01.680
<v Speaker 4>I guess my parents have that things. They did the tiles,

1846
01:42:02.319 --> 01:42:06.560
<v Speaker 4>subway tile stuff in the kitchen. Yeah, I played out

1847
01:42:06.600 --> 01:42:10.680
<v Speaker 4>now they'll feel figure that out. They keep watching its

1848
01:42:10.720 --> 01:42:14.840
<v Speaker 4>classic though it really is, it's classic. I mean yeah,

<v Speaker 4>you know, I mean you watch the you know the things,

1850

<v Speaker 4>most exciting segment on the radio on its guy World

1855
01:42:41.920 --> 01:42:44.239
<v Speaker 4>And I like this one once I pull it back up.

1856
01:42:44.520 --> 01:42:46.399
<v Speaker 5>I took my eight year old daughter to the office

1857
01:42:46.439 --> 01:42:48.439
<v Speaker 5>with me on take your kid to work Day. We

1858
01:42:48.560 --> 01:42:51.319
<v Speaker 5>were walking around the office and she started crying. As

1859
01:42:51.399 --> 01:42:54.720
<v Speaker 5>my co workers gathered around, she sobbed. She said, Daddy,

1860
01:42:54.840 --> 01:42:56.359
<v Speaker 5>where are all the clowns you said.

1861
01:42:56.199 --> 01:42:56.680
<v Speaker 2>You worked with?

1862
01:43:00.119 --> 01:43:03.199
<v Speaker 4>Yes, that came from somebody's real life one thing. That

1863
01:43:03.399 --> 01:43:06.720
<v Speaker 4>is like a real life story. Because kids, they will

1864
01:43:06.840 --> 01:43:09.119
<v Speaker 4>say the things you do not want them to say

1865
01:43:09.359 --> 01:43:12.800
<v Speaker 4>at the wrong moment, wrong moment. All right, what's our

<v Speaker 4>word of today? Please? Word of the day today? Object

1867
01:43:16.279 --> 01:43:21.239
<v Speaker 4>A B J E C T. Complete and total abject failure,

1868
01:43:21.479 --> 01:43:22.520
<v Speaker 4>abject disaster.

1869
01:43:23.920 --> 01:43:27.880
<v Speaker 5>I would say that is wrong, okay, extremely bad or severe?

1870
01:43:28.000 --> 01:43:28.479
<v Speaker 4>Okay.

1871
01:43:28.760 --> 01:43:28.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

1872
01:43:29.039 --> 01:43:31.399
<v Speaker 5>You can also be described as something that feels or

1873
01:43:31.439 --> 01:43:34.199
<v Speaker 5>shows shame or someone lacking courage or strength.

1874
01:43:34.359 --> 01:43:36.479
<v Speaker 4>Oh that's a whole new world right there for me

1875
01:43:36.600 --> 01:43:39.279
<v Speaker 4>to object. Obviously, didn't know what that meant before I

1876
01:43:39.319 --> 01:43:42.039
<v Speaker 4>started using it regular Well, here we go. Who invented

1877
01:43:42.079 --> 01:43:45.720
<v Speaker 4>the recipe for green bean casserole? I suspect it was

1878
01:43:45.760 --> 01:43:46.560
<v Speaker 4>the onion people.

1879
01:43:47.359 --> 01:43:50.520
<v Speaker 5>I think it's onion, big French fried onion.

1880
01:43:53.319 --> 01:43:54.880
<v Speaker 4>Hey, you got to play with us here, we're going

1881
01:43:55.079 --> 01:43:58.960
<v Speaker 4>to do We're not to be ready to do jeopardy. No,

1882
01:43:59.399 --> 01:44:02.079
<v Speaker 4>of course, it was invented by the ever famous Dorcas

1883
01:44:02.279 --> 01:44:06.079
<v Speaker 4>Riley back in nineteen fifty five working at the Campbell's

1884
01:44:06.119 --> 01:44:08.840
<v Speaker 4>Soup Company test kitchen. So it was the soup people.

1885
01:44:08.880 --> 01:44:11.000
<v Speaker 4>It's big soup, not big onions.

1886
01:44:11.000 --> 01:44:13.000
<v Speaker 5>You got to have that cream of mushrooms, of course,

1887
01:44:13.119 --> 01:44:15.680
<v Speaker 5>and I make it like a bechamel with mushrooms, and

1888
01:44:15.800 --> 01:44:17.239
<v Speaker 5>it's delightful.

1889
01:44:17.319 --> 01:44:20.479
<v Speaker 4>But it's not as good as the dang can just saying, you.

1890
01:44:20.479 --> 01:44:24.000
<v Speaker 5>Know, that's also my nickname for Ryan Bechamel. Dorcas, Oh,
