WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.839 This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf 2 00:00:02.879 --> 00:00:05.360 I AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on 3 00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:07.280 demand on the iHeartRadio apps. 4 00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:08.400 Time for Swamp watch. 5 00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:11.320 Swamp is horrible. 6 00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:15.519 The government doesn't work. Man, make it like a reality 7 00:00:15.560 --> 00:00:16.120 TV show. 8 00:00:17.079 --> 00:00:20.320 A bad Noos, always a pleasure to be anywhere from Washington, 9 00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:20.640 d C. 10 00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:21.480 Hey Joe. 11 00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:25.679 A town hall too, clearly built on a swamp and 12 00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:27.160 in so many ways. 13 00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:29.280 Still a swamp. I have to watch it. Mawarkee boy said, 14 00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:31.440 drained the swamp. I said, Oh, that's so hell. Keep 15 00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:34.240 happensh You. 16 00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:37.240 Know the thing, well, it was one year ago today 17 00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:41.880 the terror attack on Israel, and just reading through what 18 00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:46.479 happened at that music Supernova festival, the journey of unity 19 00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:50.479 and love there near the border, just rereading the stories 20 00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:53.439 from one year ago today, it's it's just horrific. 21 00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.840 And we have been following what appears to be this 22 00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:00.600 slow trudge towards a wider war throughout the Middle East, 23 00:01:01.399 --> 00:01:03.920 and we wanted to talk more about what it is 24 00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:07.799 that the future holds for that area. Lieutenant General Richard 25 00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:10.599 Newton is joining US a senior National Court a security 26 00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:15.359 contributor to News Nation General this has been a very 27 00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:20.519 dark year obviously for that region. Where are we today 28 00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:23.799 compared to where we were in the afternoon of October 29 00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:24.840 seventh from last. 30 00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:27.519 Year, Well, good morning, and you're right. It was an 31 00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:31.680 absolutely brutal attack and frankly in the public domain right now, 32 00:01:31.640 --> 00:01:36.120 I'd like our listeners appreciating context. Hamas took a play 33 00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:39.719 the playbook of ISIS and al Qaeda and actually used 34 00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:43.200 such brutal tactics on a battlefield to include sexual violence 35 00:01:43.239 --> 00:01:46.319 on the battlefield and the taking of hostages. And there's 36 00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:50.280 still about one hundred and one hostages still under Hamas control. 37 00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.799 I believe there's probably significantly less still alive. But where 38 00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:59.640 we are right now is an Israel that had its 39 00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:02.200 back against the wall. That was a significant failure of Israel, 40 00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:06.000 certainly in their military intelligence and their other intelligence to 41 00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:08.479 the fact that it was a surprise attack on October seventh. 42 00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.680 But where we are right now is we've seen the 43 00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:15.039 resolve of Prime Minister n in Yahoo, certainly the capabilities 44 00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:19.919 of Israeli defense forces and frankly, Israeli people have stood 45 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:23.840 up to this brutal attack. But there's not just one 46 00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:27.919 axis that they are being attacked there's multiple fronts, what 47 00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:31.479 I would call an axis of evil. You've got Hamas 48 00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:35.680 in Gaza pretty much decimated at this point. You've got 49 00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:38.960 heaslots to the north, which has the largest paramilitary terraced 50 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:44.479 foot soldiers in terms of numbers and capability. To the 51 00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:48.599 north have been lobbing since October eighth, relentlessly, up to 52 00:02:48.919 --> 00:02:53.400 thirteen thousand projectiles of missiles and rockets on artillery since 53 00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:56.360 October eighth. Then, of course, hoof, he's down in the 54 00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:01.759 South and Yemen. These are all proc of Iran. The 55 00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:04.719 head of the snak is Iran, and so that has 56 00:03:04.759 --> 00:03:07.439 become loud and clear. I think not only certainly Israel 57 00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.639 knew that. The United States knew that. I knew that 58 00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:11.159 when I was on active duty, but now the rest 59 00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:14.719 of the world does. And so what you're seeing play 60 00:03:14.759 --> 00:03:19.000 out is that Israel almost is going alone at this point. However, 61 00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.479 we've been providing. You are still our military supplies and 62 00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:28.439 capabilities and arms and so forth. But nonetheless, Israel has 63 00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:32.680 fought back. I believe they've fought back somewhat relentlessly and effectively. 64 00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:36.639 And so we're at a point now where Hamas is decimated 65 00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:39.840 as well, they have systematically taken out their leadership as 66 00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:42.680 well as a lot of their military capabilities are missile capabilities. 67 00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:46.360 And so the next thing is, Okay, how are they 68 00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:50.000 going to counterattack against Iran if they've made two major 69 00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.400 acts of war in their missile attack on April thirteenth, 70 00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:53.759 in October. 71 00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:56.680 First, Yeah, Lieutenant General Richard Newton is who we're talking 72 00:03:56.759 --> 00:03:59.840 to right now, senior national security contributor for News Nation. 73 00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:05.199 The proxies you mentioned, Iran's proxies hamas have been weakened 74 00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.680 substantially since a year ago today. 75 00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:09.599 Does that make it. 76 00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:14.919 More imminent or put pressure on Israel maybe now to 77 00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.639 go into Iran and to attack the nuclear facilities. 78 00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:24.759 Well premise in Nyahu, and his Minister of Defense has 79 00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:27.639 said that they will attack Iran on their time and 80 00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:30.879 their choosing. But however, I believe where the stress is 81 00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.879 the most stressed UH in terms of the midiest right 82 00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:38.759 now is Iran because of they have then they thought 83 00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:43.560 that their proxies, which really serve as their long range 84 00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:46.439 military capability, they don't have a really particularly strong conventional 85 00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:49.720 capability other than in missiles, and in some degree there 86 00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:53.720 they're specialists inside the Iranian revolution at Guard Corps. But 87 00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:57.680 they've been using these proxies for decades husb lah Hamas 88 00:04:57.720 --> 00:04:59.920 and Husi's and so forth. And now that they seem 89 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.600 that Israel has done to Hamas specifically and now Hesbelah, 90 00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:09.360 I believe it's really put the stress and backed Iran 91 00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:13.879 into a corner. And so Israel right now is, in 92 00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:16.600 my view, in what I would call a driver's seat. 93 00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:18.199 And so it's up to Israel in terms of how 94 00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:22.439 they go back and strike Iran. They did after the 95 00:05:22.439 --> 00:05:25.480 April thirteenth missile attack, if you recall, there's just one 96 00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:29.199 They went after one area defense system in the Isfahan reason, 97 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:32.360 which is another nuclear weapons capability. But right now I 98 00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:35.839 think you're going to see a much more culminating a broader, 99 00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:39.959 comprehensive counter strike with impunity, not just over a day 100 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:42.319 or two, but probably in terms of weeks of time. 101 00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:45.480 I love your perspective. Thank you for that, Lieutenant General 102 00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:46.879 Richard Newton, Thanks for taking. 103 00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:47.439 Time for us today. 104 00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:49.360 My pleasure, good morning. 105 00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:51.240 Thanks. This is going to be an issue. 106 00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:54.000 I know that when Kamala Harris sat down for that 107 00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:57.600 interview with sixty Minutes that airs tonight, one of the 108 00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:01.319 clips that's been released by CBS. Already is her being 109 00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:04.560 asked about Benjamin Netanya, who is not listening to you. 110 00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:07.759 He's not listening to Joe Biden. He's not listening to you. 111 00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:10.240 We claim that we're the biggest ally that we've got, 112 00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:13.000 but you keep telling him to calm down, basically, and 113 00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.160 to you keep calling for a ceasefire. 114 00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:16.240 He's not paying attention to. 115 00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:20.639 No escalation has been the Biden and Kamala Harris response. Trump, 116 00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:22.639 on the other hand, says, now's the time for Israel 117 00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:25.800 to act and take out those nuclear facilities, like let's 118 00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:28.720 kick the dog while it's down right and show us 119 00:06:28.759 --> 00:06:32.240 strength towards the axis of evil here. And you know 120 00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:34.079 the point I was trying to drive home there is 121 00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:37.879 this is the weakest Hesbalah and Hamas have been for 122 00:06:37.959 --> 00:06:40.600 a long time. Now is the time to strike. If 123 00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:44.360 you're going to do that. Yeah, well, there has been 124 00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:49.800 a lot of speculation that the inaction in North Carolina 125 00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:55.480 with cleaning up Helene is in correlation to the fact 126 00:06:55.519 --> 00:07:00.279 that North Carolina elects Republicans, specifically Donald Trump and twenty 127 00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:05.120 took i think twenty seven out of twenty eight counties there. 128 00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:10.279 Georgia is also another state where voting preparation has been 129 00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:15.120 disrupted because of Helene, those two battleground states, and that's 130 00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.680 the fight is going to center around this. If he 131 00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:22.439 goes on to lose, it's going to center around Biden's 132 00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:25.600 Administration's a response to the cleanup and all that, and 133 00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:28.480 being able to get people to the ballots, get people 134 00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:31.319 to the polls or less than a month away now, 135 00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:35.839 and if there's already a backlog of voting preparations, that's 136 00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:36.519 going to be a fight. 137 00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:39.920 Well, vote by mail when they don't have mail, I mean, 138 00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:41.399 how do you do that? Yeah, exactly. 139 00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:44.040 This is if this is. 140 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:49.480 A thing, it's a dangerous thing to allege because on 141 00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:53.079 the other side, there are allegations that former President Trump 142 00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:57.360 said he was going to withhold wildlife sorry, wildfire relief 143 00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:02.160 money from California because it's so blue. That kind of rhetoric, 144 00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:04.240 that kind of talk, that kind of discussion, if it 145 00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:08.600 even crosses a politician's mind, should disqualify them from ever 146 00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:09.439 holding office. 147 00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:13.959 Ever, that's not what we do. That's what killed Chris 148 00:08:14.079 --> 00:08:18.319 Christie in a way. Yeah, going to give you traffic. 149 00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:22.759 Speaking of and I had mentioned earlier that FEMA, you know, 150 00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:25.040 FEMA has the ability to get more money. I mean 151 00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:27.360 they've gone through what was allocated to them, and that 152 00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:29.279 this has been a particularly difficult year. 153 00:08:29.720 --> 00:08:31.600 We do have more money that can come. It's got 154 00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:32.600 to go through Congress. 155 00:08:32.960 --> 00:08:36.679 Now, Mike Johnson is saying he's not committing to calling 156 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:40.919 Congress back into session before the election because they're out now, 157 00:08:40.919 --> 00:08:43.159 they're not supposed, they're not scheduled to come back. But 158 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:47.559 in his letter, in a letter I should say, President 159 00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:50.639 Biden urged Congress to restore funding to the Small Business 160 00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.039 Administration's Disaster loan program, which is facing some short falls 161 00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:59.240 even before Hurricane Helene came through. And now that we've 162 00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:02.080 talked about having Milton knocking on the door of Floorida, 163 00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:04.639 it's not going to get a whole lot better. Also 164 00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:08.720 mentioned that there are plenty of interviews coming up. Vice 165 00:09:08.759 --> 00:09:12.240 President Harris has an interview tonight on sixty Minutes. Then 166 00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:14.879 she does Stephen Colbert, then she does Howard Stern, then 167 00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:17.639 she does the View. The last three probably not the 168 00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:23.000 hardest hitting. She also did an interview with Alex what's 169 00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:28.919 her name A Hamilton now Alex Cooper. Alex Cooper from 170 00:09:29.159 --> 00:09:33.080 the Call Her Daddy podcast I've listened to one entire 171 00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:36.879 episode of this thing, so I can't qualify or agree 172 00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:39.080 or not with if it's a sex podcast. 173 00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:41.919 I did a read. It's the number two podcasts behind 174 00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:42.480 Joe Rogan. 175 00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:44.879 It's very popular. Regardless of what the topics are, it's 176 00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:46.960 a very popular thing. And I mentioned that I listened 177 00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:49.799 to this whole episode today because I wanted to hear 178 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:51.440 what the hullabaloo was. 179 00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:54.240 This was the first question to ask of the Vice president. 180 00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:56.159 What made you want to do call her daddy today? 181 00:09:56.919 --> 00:10:01.240 Well, I think you and your listeners have really got 182 00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:04.799 this thing right, which is one of the best ways 183 00:10:04.840 --> 00:10:08.480 to communicate with people is to be real, you know, 184 00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:11.840 and to talk about the things that people. 185 00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:12.480 Really care about. 186 00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:16.159 What I love about what you do is that your 187 00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:20.919 voice in your show is really about your listeners. And 188 00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:23.639 I think, especially now, this is a moment in the 189 00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:26.480 country and in life where people really want another scene 190 00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:29.600 and heard and that they're part of a community. I 191 00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:34.799 think that she's been show and so I'm really glad 192 00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:35.240 to be with you. 193 00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:39.240 That was that was word salary a little bit. I mean, 194 00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:42.320 the idea of being seen and heard, et cetera. The 195 00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:46.919 interview itself wasn't bad in that she didn't do anything wrong. 196 00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:51.919 I feel like sometimes when she's confronted with journalists, she 197 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:55.639 gets her she puts her friences up, she puts her 198 00:10:55.960 --> 00:10:59.480 her guard, she's defensive, and she if she feels she 199 00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:01.639 can go on the podcast and be real, that's great 200 00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:01.840 for her. 201 00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:02.639 That's a great moment. 202 00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:03.080 And listen. 203 00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:06.279 Election wise, yeah, that's the way you can win an election. 204 00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:09.440 That is to go through and talk to people at 205 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:11.759 their level however you want to do that. But even 206 00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:16.960 Andrea and Mitchell from MSNBC yesterday said, Kamala Harris has 207 00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:19.320 got to do serious interview and I. 208 00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:21.879 Think they've got to double down on doing more interviews 209 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:26.039 and serious interviews because when I'm hearing from Democratic and 210 00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:29.840 Republican business people and a lot of men, and she's 211 00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:31.679 got such a big problem with men. I think there's 212 00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:33.879 an under account of the Trump vote. I think there's 213 00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:37.759 a miss edgn misogenation in all of this black and 214 00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:41.320 white men big problem. But also the business world, they 215 00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:44.200 don't think she is serious, they don't think she's a heavyweight. 216 00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:47.440 And a lot of this is gender. But she's got 217 00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:49.600 to be more specific about her economic. 218 00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:52.080 Fans now she's going, like I said, she did call 219 00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:57.120 her Daddy's She's doing Stephen Colbert, Howard Stern and the 220 00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:00.840 view outside of that sixty minute interview, and then Tim 221 00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:07.000 Walls on the underticket, the undercard, the vice presidential nominee 222 00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:10.360 is doing Jimmy Kimmel. I mean, these are not serious interviews, 223 00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:12.840 and I know that they can ask serious questions, but 224 00:12:12.919 --> 00:12:17.720 that's not what drives those types of interviews, and it's 225 00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:18.759 going to come back to haunt them. 226 00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:23.600 I think we mentioned earlier the term gray divorce. It 227 00:12:23.639 --> 00:12:26.840 turns out thirty six percent of people getting a divorce 228 00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:28.759 in this country are over the age. 229 00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:31.279 Of fifty and the different reasons for that. 230 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:31.799 Yeah. 231 00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:34.519 One of the things that I pointed out was I 232 00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:37.519 would be very upset if my parents had divorced after 233 00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:38.559 they were fifty. 234 00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:41.480 And I'm not certain. 235 00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:45.679 I think part of it would be my naivete about 236 00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:48.919 what a marriage is supposed. 237 00:12:48.519 --> 00:12:51.279 To be, okay, or what you thought your parents had 238 00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:53.759 thought they had, and that you would feel like it 239 00:12:53.799 --> 00:12:55.279 was a lie if they got a divorce. 240 00:12:55.360 --> 00:12:57.679 Yeah, and it's one thing if you saw I mean, 241 00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:02.440 kids are probably a lot more in tune to these 242 00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:06.759 things then they realize you know, relationships strained between your parents. 243 00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:10.600 I'm sure that everybody probably has seen some level of 244 00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:14.080 it to some degree, and you know, some people have 245 00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:17.559 nightmare stories about, yeah, the relationship that their parents had. 246 00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:21.320 But I think it would have just been a letdown 247 00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:24.440 for me because I would have thought, why I thought 248 00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:27.480 you guys were and maybe listen again, I speak from 249 00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:31.000 a point of naivete where my parents didn't have that. 250 00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:33.279 They didn't have a lot of friction in their marriage, 251 00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:37.559 they didn't have a lot of strained times. So I'm 252 00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:41.679 lucky for that. And I think that you know, other 253 00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:44.320 people who did grow up with that strained marriage, or 254 00:13:44.360 --> 00:13:46.600 that their parents got divorced when they were six or 255 00:13:47.039 --> 00:13:51.159 twelve or eighteen, Like, different stages bring with it different 256 00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:57.320 kinds of reactions to that. So I at least acknowledge 257 00:13:57.360 --> 00:14:00.200 that's not that's not my experience, and I can I 258 00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:03.440 can say that for some people it's probably one of, 259 00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:07.759 if not the biggest childhood memory they have is watching 260 00:14:07.799 --> 00:14:11.399 their parents go through and divorce, right, So I don't know, 261 00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:16.320 it would just be I was naive to think I 262 00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:20.200 would have been naive if they had gotten divorced after 263 00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:21.320 the age of fifty. 264 00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:22.240 So what did people say? 265 00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:23.960 So there were other things. 266 00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:28.399 Some people said that I was right, but for different 267 00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:29.320 reasons too. 268 00:14:29.480 --> 00:14:33.120 So Hey, Garry Jen happy ONNDY to you. Hey, it's 269 00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:33.759 Robin Oc. 270 00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:38.240 I'm a divorcee. I felt it was better to be 271 00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:42.320 divorced than being a toxic relationship because then I'm teaching 272 00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:45.679 my kids has to survive in a toxic relationship and 273 00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:47.200 that's not a healthy way of life. 274 00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:49.039 Just my opinion. 275 00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:50.639 Thanks guys, let me show bye. 276 00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:53.879 Yeah, I mean that's one of the issues. He's talking 277 00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:58.159 specifically from his own experience. But there has to be 278 00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:00.879 a calculus that you go through when you're going to 279 00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:03.799 end a relationship like that. Not just end the relationship, 280 00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:05.720 but I mean all of the legal matters that come 281 00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:06.360 along with it. 282 00:15:06.879 --> 00:15:10.080 Oh yeah, that's all needs to be taken into consideration, 283 00:15:10.200 --> 00:15:12.000 because that can be a complete mess. 284 00:15:12.559 --> 00:15:14.879 Gary, if your parents got divorced once the kids were 285 00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:17.039 all up and out of the house and onto their 286 00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:21.000 own lives, would you really be angry or would you 287 00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:28.000 maybe also be sad, disappointed, frustrated, disillusioned if they really 288 00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:29.840 tried to work on it and found that it wasn't 289 00:15:29.879 --> 00:15:32.480 going to make them both happy when they have deserved 290 00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:37.639 to try to find happiness individually. Just my perspective. 291 00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:42.240 Yeah, and again, you have a hard time articulating your emotions. 292 00:15:42.480 --> 00:15:44.440 So that's what I was trying to get to. When 293 00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:46.320 you say it would make me angry, it's like, well, 294 00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:47.840 what do you mean by that? What do you mean 295 00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:49.519 when you say angry? And I think she kind of 296 00:15:49.559 --> 00:15:52.159 nailed it well, she definitely had better words than I did. 297 00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:53.279 That's what you sad? 298 00:15:53.639 --> 00:15:54.360 Disappointed? 299 00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:56.960 Yes, frustrated disillusion. 300 00:15:57.159 --> 00:15:57.399 Right. 301 00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:01.919 You need that chart with the faces so you can 302 00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:02.879 better articulate. 303 00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:04.759 We moved it to Texas with my daughter. 304 00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:06.759 Can't just be angry or. 305 00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:10.840 Sad or happy two main emotions. Needs to be a 306 00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:14.240 little bit more shades. But it's also she pointed out 307 00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:15.600 something that I hadn't thought of. 308 00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:19.320 When they have deserved to try to find happiness individually. 309 00:16:19.679 --> 00:16:23.559 Uh no, they're my parents. They're supposed to be together. 310 00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:26.440 Again, I'm not saying that's the right way, but that 311 00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:28.120 would be what my reaction is. 312 00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:30.440 Right, Right, you're not their whole world. 313 00:16:31.080 --> 00:16:34.480 Sometimes you think that our parents don't have their own lives. 314 00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:38.759 Yeah, I trust me. I'm on the receiving end of 315 00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:41.480 that now too. My kids look at me. I don't 316 00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:43.279 know what they expect of me or what kind of 317 00:16:43.679 --> 00:16:46.559 they don't. It's not like they ask about my relationship 318 00:16:46.600 --> 00:16:47.519 with their mother. 319 00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:50.559 Right, But what you're not just your relationship, and you're 320 00:16:50.600 --> 00:16:54.120 not just your relationship with them. You're into adult theater, 321 00:16:54.600 --> 00:17:01.080 you have a career. You like to tinker. Yeah, you're 322 00:17:01.320 --> 00:17:03.600 kind of a tinker, like around the house you were painted. 323 00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:05.960 They got to say, I resound with Gary on that 324 00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:09.599 whole angry about parents coming to you at the age 325 00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:13.200 of fifty and saying they want a divorce. My parents 326 00:17:13.240 --> 00:17:15.839 did that, and I was so mad at them. I 327 00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:18.720 was like, we were miserable as children. You guys stayed 328 00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:24.359 together that whole entire time. You never left him then, 329 00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:26.160 and now you want to leave him. 330 00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:27.359 Hell no. 331 00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:31.039 It was interesting, really, I was so angry. 332 00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:34.119 Now that again, that wouldn't have been my experience because 333 00:17:34.160 --> 00:17:38.359 I had a good childhood. I mean, it was happy, there. 334 00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:38.640 Were no negatives. 335 00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:41.920 Yeah, But that she talked about it that they grew 336 00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:44.960 up miserable because their parents were miserable. 337 00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:46.960 Right, and so why didn't you just do this and 338 00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:48.319 saved us the misery? 339 00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:49.359 Interesting? 340 00:17:49.880 --> 00:17:53.000 But the other thing is you've put in twenty five 341 00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:57.119 thirty years with someone, and you're just gonna like throw 342 00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:00.720 that away. Oh there's a shiny new thing, or I. 343 00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:04.559 Don't feel like on your priority. Speaking to the woman 344 00:18:04.799 --> 00:18:09.119 that was profiled in the story earlier, I just she said, 345 00:18:09.240 --> 00:18:11.480 we had the house, we had the kids, we had 346 00:18:12.880 --> 00:18:17.119 a household. EQUI that's right, equal equal sharing of the 347 00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:19.319 household duties and the child rearing and everything. 348 00:18:19.319 --> 00:18:22.759 But I didn't feel like I was his number one priority. 349 00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:27.599 Well, priorities change from day to day, time to time, 350 00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:30.759 they look different. You can't be the number one priority 351 00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:34.960 all the time, right telling me like, right now, your 352 00:18:35.160 --> 00:18:37.680 number one priority should be that shirt and what you're 353 00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:39.480 going to do with it when you get rid of it. 354 00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:44.960 Why why do I get rid of that shirt?
