1
00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:03.759
<v Speaker 1>On the show this morning. It is Thursday, and you

2
00:00:03.759 --> 00:00:06.639
<v Speaker 1>know it is a perfect day. Is Thursday, you know,

3
00:00:06.879 --> 00:00:11.359
<v Speaker 1>is for us to have our official NERD correspondent, Stevie

4
00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:16.719
<v Speaker 1>Kent joining us. Sorry, just some weird thing going on

5
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:22.039
<v Speaker 1>over by my processor there. What is okay? All right? Ah,

6
00:00:22.239 --> 00:00:24.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm like it's gonna be electrical fire. I'm gonna die. No,

7
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:27.719
<v Speaker 1>there's just a piece of paper left over there that

8
00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:31.120
<v Speaker 1>I guess the Breeze editor the acy hit it. All right,

9
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:36.359
<v Speaker 1>So anyway it is we got Academy Award news. They're

10
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:38.600
<v Speaker 1>jacking with Spider Man. I think we mentioned that on

11
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:42.600
<v Speaker 1>the show, and apparently for a moment. The Star Wars

12
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 1>nerds are happy because the new and Or is hit

13
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Disney Plus or I guess not new it's season two,

14
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.479
<v Speaker 1>but the new season of and Or Ross. You've been

15
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:55.240
<v Speaker 1>pretty negative on a lot of recent Star Trek stuff.

16
00:00:55.280 --> 00:00:58.600
<v Speaker 1>This is the one you like, right, yeah, no Star Wars, right,

17
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:01.520
<v Speaker 1>or Star Wars. I'm sorry to say Star Trek. Well whatever,

18
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:03.240
<v Speaker 1>they're probably Matt too, Yes, Star Wars.

19
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:05.799
<v Speaker 2>That was a joke anyway. So yeah, so you know,

20
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:08.680
<v Speaker 2>I haven't been that complimentary in the past of recent

21
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:13.599
<v Speaker 2>or new Star Wars correct. We watched and Or season

22
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:17.840
<v Speaker 2>one this past fall, Marky and I and we watched

23
00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:19.799
<v Speaker 2>the whole thing, and I really feel and I mean

24
00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:22.719
<v Speaker 2>this completely. I think it's the best Star Wars content

25
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:24.280
<v Speaker 2>since Empire Strikes Back.

26
00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:28.239
<v Speaker 1>Wow, it is so good, even the middle three. Huh.

27
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's so different than what we've seen. It's a

28
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:34.680
<v Speaker 2>good story. It starts off the first season. I'm not

29
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:36.599
<v Speaker 2>gonna spoil too much if you haven't seen it, because

30
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:38.640
<v Speaker 2>when I first came across it, I thought and Or

31
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:41.000
<v Speaker 2>was the name of a planet. It's the name of

32
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.000
<v Speaker 2>the dude that's in the movie Rogue one, and that

33
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:46.439
<v Speaker 2>movie is about stealing the plans for the Death Star.

34
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>And then and that's a pretty good movie. It's it's

35
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:50.799
<v Speaker 1>not their best, but it's okay.

36
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:53.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and then they handed off to Princess Leia in

37
00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:55.159
<v Speaker 2>a New Hope and that's the end of that story,

38
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:58.400
<v Speaker 2>right right, So I directly precedes the originals. Yes, it

39
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.359
<v Speaker 2>starts off as like a heist and then it turns.

40
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:04.319
<v Speaker 2>The first season turns into like a prison break story

41
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:07.760
<v Speaker 2>and it's just so smart and it's so Season two

42
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:09.560
<v Speaker 2>came out and Steven knows I'm a big fan of

43
00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:12.360
<v Speaker 2>and Or, and he sent me a text yesterday that was, like, dude,

44
00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:14.879
<v Speaker 2>season two is out. The first three episodes are up.

45
00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:17.199
<v Speaker 2>We watched one last night. I am such a fan.

46
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Like if you've been looking for old Star Wars, this

47
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:22.800
<v Speaker 2>is it. In fact, I would say there's a character

48
00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:28.120
<v Speaker 2>in it the two seasons named Luthan, and he's sort

49
00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:31.319
<v Speaker 2>of like the dude. He's the guy that starts the rebellion.

50
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:34.919
<v Speaker 2>He's the brain behind the initial rebellion. I think he's

51
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:39.240
<v Speaker 2>my favorite Star Wars character ever ever. And he's played

52
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:42.759
<v Speaker 2>by the older scarsguard guy, the guy that was in Dune,

53
00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:44.759
<v Speaker 2>played the big fat white emper guy.

54
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:46.120
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, yeah, ye yeah.

55
00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:49.639
<v Speaker 2>I played Professor Lambeau in the Goodwill Hunting Yeah. Absolutely,

56
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:51.680
<v Speaker 2>he's such an amazing he's I think he's my favorite

57
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:55.479
<v Speaker 2>character ever in all Star Wars. Oh wow. I give

58
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:57.599
<v Speaker 2>it a big ten out of ten. I love this show.

59
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:01.360
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that your favorite character selection might be

60
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:06.639
<v Speaker 1>colored by the attitudes of perhaps the main character of

61
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:13.719
<v Speaker 1>Star Wars, mister Skywalker there because the actor is such augh.

62
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:16.680
<v Speaker 2>You're right, it does hurt it. It does hurt him

63
00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:18.479
<v Speaker 2>a bit. But yeah, I don't know. Man, it's so great.

64
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:21.680
<v Speaker 2>There's a scene in it, and it's so hard not

65
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:24.240
<v Speaker 2>to spoil this show because I'm I actually enjoy it.

66
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:27.800
<v Speaker 2>But You've got asked Stephen about this, so this might

67
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:31.319
<v Speaker 2>be a s okay no, because listen, there's a scene

68
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:32.680
<v Speaker 2>in it where the guy that I like, his name

69
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:35.159
<v Speaker 2>is Luth and like I said, he's up in space

70
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:37.479
<v Speaker 2>and he's surrounded by the bad guys, like they have

71
00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:42.039
<v Speaker 2>a big old one of those ginormous star destroyers whatever

72
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:43.800
<v Speaker 2>it's called that we see in the beginning of a

73
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:45.639
<v Speaker 2>New Hope, you know, it flies over the level ship

74
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:48.639
<v Speaker 2>comes out, you know, on the screen. So they get

75
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:51.120
<v Speaker 2>his ship and he somehow gets away and they send

76
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:53.240
<v Speaker 2>tie fighters after him, and this thing happens that I've

77
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:57.560
<v Speaker 2>never seen before in Star Wars, where out of the

78
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:00.879
<v Speaker 2>wings of his ship or whatever are these giant laser

79
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:04.319
<v Speaker 2>beams that come out that look like giant lightsabers.

80
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm just gonna say, a giant lightsabers.

81
00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:09.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And it spins and circles and cuts the other

82
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:11.960
<v Speaker 2>ships in half. And I'm like, why, why, why have

83
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:13.439
<v Speaker 2>why do the other ships have this?

84
00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:19.439
<v Speaker 1>Well it's dude, look, you got budgets, okay, right, not

85
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:21.360
<v Speaker 1>everything can be an F eighteen. Do you know what

86
00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:21.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying.

87
00:04:22.319 --> 00:04:24.040
<v Speaker 2>Stephen tried to explain it to me and he's like,

88
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.879
<v Speaker 2>you know, Luthen is just he has these resources, so

89
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:29.439
<v Speaker 2>not everybody would have that. But I'm like, Steven, those

90
00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:31.800
<v Speaker 2>are giant lightsabers that they put on the end of

91
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:34.399
<v Speaker 2>the wings of his ship, and he's like, no, actually,

92
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:37.160
<v Speaker 2>it's not a light shaberg dude, come on.

93
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:40.360
<v Speaker 1>That's why I was just gonna ask this because people

94
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:46.040
<v Speaker 1>have been critical of some of the expansion of the lightsabers,

95
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:47.160
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, in the past.

96
00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:49.120
<v Speaker 2>Steven has been as well. Remember he was talking about

97
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:51.639
<v Speaker 2>I guess there was some show or something where they

98
00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:56.720
<v Speaker 2>used a lightsaber as like a helicopter, like they spun it.

99
00:04:57.160 --> 00:04:59.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's been so many dumb ones, so

100
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to envision this. So it looked like who

101
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:05.040
<v Speaker 1>was it, count Dooku? Right, remember the scene because he

102
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:06.920
<v Speaker 1>could spin, right, was it Doku was?

103
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:09.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? No, no, no, no, that was grievous.

104
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:11.959
<v Speaker 1>Oh grievous. I'm sorry, but yeah, I remember I was spinning

105
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:14.439
<v Speaker 1>his lightsabers and they look like a process. So they're

106
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:16.399
<v Speaker 1>doing that off the wings of a tie fighter.

107
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:20.160
<v Speaker 2>No, it's just it's some sort of rebel ship regular ship, okay,

108
00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:22.839
<v Speaker 2>you know. And it's just like he has wings in

109
00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:25.720
<v Speaker 2>space because they's what you do, apparently, and out of

110
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:28.000
<v Speaker 2>the right and the lyft giant lightsabers pop out of

111
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:31.279
<v Speaker 2>it and his spins and circles and cuts everybody in half. Okay,

112
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:34.160
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing. All right, anyway, great show? Watch it you

113
00:05:34.199 --> 00:05:34.560
<v Speaker 2>want one?

114
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.639
<v Speaker 1>Huh? Is that what this is about? Do you want

115
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:40.959
<v Speaker 1>to get an endorsement for giant spinny lightsabers? Okay? Did

116
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 1>I see somebody posted there's two things? One is really dark?

117
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:47.959
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know. I saw Steven posted

118
00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:51.360
<v Speaker 1>there you when you sent me what Steven was your conversation?

119
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he did reference it. Yeah, I haven't gotten there yet.

120
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:55.399
<v Speaker 2>We just watched one episode, so.

121
00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:56.959
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I want to get into that.

122
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:00.519
<v Speaker 2>Uh, maybe he'll have a way to bring it up

123
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:02.480
<v Speaker 2>that isn't like, you know, oh dark.

124
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:05.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, okay, all right, And I'm sorry. We'll talk

125
00:06:05.879 --> 00:06:07.319
<v Speaker 1>to him at eight oh five. I don't mean to

126
00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:11.040
<v Speaker 1>be uh secretive here, but I'm still thinking about it.

127
00:06:11.079 --> 00:06:14.279
<v Speaker 1>And then did I see some character on and Or

128
00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:15.319
<v Speaker 1>who is the Predator.

129
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:19.399
<v Speaker 2>Uh no, I thought what you saw was the actual

130
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:20.079
<v Speaker 2>new Predator.

131
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:23.439
<v Speaker 1>Okay, then, so somebody miss labeled. That's why I was

132
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:26.120
<v Speaker 1>going to ask you because I couldn't replicate the picture

133
00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:27.879
<v Speaker 1>I saw on Twitter this morning.

134
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Because I saw yesterday and somebody said it's the new Predator.

135
00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:32.920
<v Speaker 2>I assumed it was the new Predator. But maybe it's

136
00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:34.759
<v Speaker 2>in episode two or three of Andor that I haven't

137
00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:35.399
<v Speaker 2>gotten to yet.

138
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:37.879
<v Speaker 1>It's the new Predator. If Helen Keller made the.

139
00:06:37.879 --> 00:06:40.399
<v Speaker 2>Mask, the dreads are gone.

140
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:43.879
<v Speaker 1>It's so bad, like even the face looks cheap.

141
00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:47.199
<v Speaker 2>And they turned the Predator into a soy boy.

142
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:52.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, possible, get him some glasses and uh and uh

143
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:54.720
<v Speaker 1>lower his tee and uh. You know what he could do.

144
00:06:54.759 --> 00:07:02.319
<v Speaker 1>He could run for Congress. So oh, all right, so

145
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:04.680
<v Speaker 1>let me do this because Ross is laughing. You're gonna

146
00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:08.319
<v Speaker 1>be laughing. So some dude for who decided he's going

147
00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:11.560
<v Speaker 1>to quit the FBI. I'm sure not at all, because

148
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:14.319
<v Speaker 1>the you know, the jig is up, but it is

149
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:18.759
<v Speaker 1>going to run for Congress. And he made the cringiest

150
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:24.759
<v Speaker 1>campaign announcement video. It's very high production value, but that

151
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:29.279
<v Speaker 1>can't make up for the weakness of the candidate, right,

152
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:33.160
<v Speaker 1>and also it's a lie, and I will prove it

153
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:36.120
<v Speaker 1>to you coming up next here on the CaCO Day

154
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:39.120
<v Speaker 1>radio program, laughing. At first, I thought it was a

155
00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:43.680
<v Speaker 1>parody because I saw it embedded in somebody else's tweet

156
00:07:43.720 --> 00:07:45.399
<v Speaker 1>and then you have to go back to figure out

157
00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:47.399
<v Speaker 1>the source there by clicking the little thing under it.

158
00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:52.959
<v Speaker 1>And I thought it was a parody, mocking portions of

159
00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:56.720
<v Speaker 1>the FBI who spent all their time trying to get

160
00:07:56.720 --> 00:08:02.319
<v Speaker 1>Trump right. But it's not, it's not. It's real. It's

161
00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:08.720
<v Speaker 1>a man by the name of here we go, John Sullivan. No,

162
00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:12.480
<v Speaker 1>not that John Sullivan. This John Sullivan. And I'm gonna

163
00:08:12.519 --> 00:08:15.240
<v Speaker 1>play this for you right now. This is the this

164
00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:19.240
<v Speaker 1>is his coming out commercial. Right, Hey, I'm leaving the FBI.

165
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:23.759
<v Speaker 1>Did I mention I had worked at the FBI and

166
00:08:23.800 --> 00:08:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm leaving and now I'm running for Congress up in

167
00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:31.519
<v Speaker 1>let's see, this would be New York seventeenth that currently

168
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:34.159
<v Speaker 1>there's a Republican in there, but it's very close district,

169
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:37.559
<v Speaker 1>so that he's going to go challenge him. Left his

170
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:41.639
<v Speaker 1>job at the FBI. Okay, you ready for the audio

171
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:44.360
<v Speaker 1>because it's it's a whole vibe here we go.

172
00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:47.960
<v Speaker 3>We're up against some serious threats right now, from skyrocketing

173
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:51.799
<v Speaker 3>costs to Trump and billionaires corrupting our government. And I

174
00:08:51.840 --> 00:08:53.639
<v Speaker 3>can't just sit on the sidelines and watch.

175
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:56.240
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, the whole theme is seen is

176
00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:00.240
<v Speaker 1>the whole scene is themed as like he's emerging from

177
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:06.320
<v Speaker 1>the shadows secret agent. Okay, just go with me on this.

178
00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:09.919
<v Speaker 3>Because for seventeen years I was an FBI intelligence analyst

179
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:14.159
<v Speaker 3>working in secret to keep us safe from global threats

180
00:09:14.279 --> 00:09:17.519
<v Speaker 3>and the insurrectionists who stormed our capital. But now that

181
00:09:17.559 --> 00:09:20.000
<v Speaker 3>the threat is coming from inside the White House, I

182
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.559
<v Speaker 3>had to leave the FBI and step forward so I

183
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:26.399
<v Speaker 3>can finally tell you who I am. Hi, I'm John No,

184
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:29.879
<v Speaker 3>I can say that now. I'm John Sullivan. I'm a dad,

185
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:33.399
<v Speaker 3>a husband, a public servant, and a cancer survivor, and

186
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:36.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm running for Congress. For years, I fought for you

187
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:39.440
<v Speaker 3>in secret, and now I want to keep fighting for

188
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:41.759
<v Speaker 3>you in Congress. I'm John Sullivan.

189
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:42.559
<v Speaker 2>Classified.

190
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:46.080
<v Speaker 3>It's not classified, John Sullivan for Congress.

191
00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay, you probably have a vision in your head. Is

192
00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:52.600
<v Speaker 1>he a ginger too? Kind of like I can't tell,

193
00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:58.279
<v Speaker 1>but the untouchables he is not? All right, Ross I

194
00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:00.519
<v Speaker 1>have a question, because I can debunk this whole thing.

195
00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Would you go to the tweet his tweet that I

196
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:07.039
<v Speaker 1>sent you, click through and go to his his actual

197
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:10.000
<v Speaker 1>profile page. All right, I was going to do that.

198
00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:12.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm look, I'm the I'm gonna do some FBI work

199
00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:14.879
<v Speaker 1>for you right here. Okay, it's gonna be very quick

200
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.200
<v Speaker 1>and I feel like we'll prove my point. Sorry, you

201
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:19.000
<v Speaker 1>had the profile page.

202
00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:19.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm on his page.

203
00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:22.480
<v Speaker 1>How long has his account been active for?

204
00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:24.960
<v Speaker 2>April twenty eighteen?

205
00:10:25.559 --> 00:10:27.559
<v Speaker 1>What's his title? What's his handle?

206
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:34.360
<v Speaker 2>FBI underscore Sullivan super Secret. So you're telling me you're

207
00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:37.000
<v Speaker 2>not going to vote for low T jackal deep state guy?

208
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:40.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he did do it treason. So I don't know.

209
00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:42.360
<v Speaker 2>This guy is so dumb. He doesn't even know that

210
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:44.000
<v Speaker 2>an insurrection didn't happen.

211
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:48.279
<v Speaker 1>His guy has been in get Trump mode since he

212
00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:51.639
<v Speaker 1>probably joined the FBI to go in get in Trump mode.

213
00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:54.279
<v Speaker 1>And so you got to ask yourself if if he

214
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:56.440
<v Speaker 1>felt the need to serve during the first term, to

215
00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:00.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, attack the threat from within the White House,

216
00:11:00.279 --> 00:11:03.279
<v Speaker 1>as he put it, why would he be getting out now?

217
00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:08.279
<v Speaker 1>Wouldn't this be his prime time? That's weird. Huh. If

218
00:11:08.279 --> 00:11:12.639
<v Speaker 1>he feels so passionately, so strongly about this and he's

219
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:14.960
<v Speaker 1>up in there, why would he flee with his tail

220
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:15.759
<v Speaker 1>tuck between them.

221
00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:19.399
<v Speaker 2>He just comes across as so partisan. I'm so thankful

222
00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:22.080
<v Speaker 2>he's no longer in the FBI, and it's scared. I

223
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:25.440
<v Speaker 2>think that he's the type of guy in the FBI. Yeah,

224
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:28.200
<v Speaker 2>and there's and there's a bunch of these dudes he's

225
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:32.720
<v Speaker 2>going after, you know, he's classifying parent teacher meeting.

226
00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:35.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, yeah, school board people who comment.

227
00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:39.559
<v Speaker 2>Going after memours and people that walk through open doors.

228
00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:42.799
<v Speaker 2>And it said, dude, it's.

229
00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:46.200
<v Speaker 1>So And then the whole theme of the ad like

230
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:49.960
<v Speaker 1>he's the you know, like he's the guy handling all

231
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:52.159
<v Speaker 1>this secret Jack Ryan.

232
00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:54.759
<v Speaker 2>Right now, he doesn't have to tell us that he's

233
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:56.879
<v Speaker 2>an analyst like you could, but even like, you know,

234
00:11:57.000 --> 00:12:00.399
<v Speaker 2>Jack Ryan was an analyst in the the time Plans stuff.

235
00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:05.080
<v Speaker 2>But listen, we dude, we're looking at We know you're

236
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:08.120
<v Speaker 2>not in the field. Okay, we know you're not the

237
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:09.679
<v Speaker 2>guy doing the things. You're the guy.

238
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:13.799
<v Speaker 1>Well he didn't help discover the bees with the black boys.

239
00:12:14.080 --> 00:12:16.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm well, okay, you mentioned that I've been saying for

240
00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:18.080
<v Speaker 2>a while, for a long for the longest time. I

241
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:20.039
<v Speaker 2>believe the FBI needs to go back to how it

242
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:23.120
<v Speaker 2>was in the nineties, where all they do is investigate

243
00:12:23.159 --> 00:12:25.279
<v Speaker 2>aliens and serial killers. That's what they need to be

244
00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:25.759
<v Speaker 2>focused on.

245
00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:28.399
<v Speaker 1>Wow, occasionally they do murder a church full of people

246
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:34.399
<v Speaker 1>in Texas, so there's that. That'd be fair. They murdered

247
00:12:34.399 --> 00:12:38.840
<v Speaker 1>one of theirs first, but it turned into a whole thing. Yeah,

248
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:43.679
<v Speaker 1>so what about Oh what Okay, so serial killers aliens? Right,

249
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:46.320
<v Speaker 1>those are the two divisions you want. Yeah, can we

250
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:49.799
<v Speaker 1>throw actual terrorism on there, because somebody's got to handle

251
00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:52.600
<v Speaker 1>when some guys, like because they just arrested some guy

252
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:56.000
<v Speaker 1>in Minneapolis who was getting ready to commit a mass stationalty.

253
00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:57.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the completely Yeah they should be up in the list.

254
00:12:57.759 --> 00:13:01.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but but real deal, what about serial killing aliens?

255
00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Hold on that we're also wanting to commit mass casualty

256
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:08.200
<v Speaker 1>terrorism events?

257
00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:09.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah that we put that in the top tier.

258
00:13:10.120 --> 00:13:13.159
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that's so probably where this guy wouldn't work because

259
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:14.879
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he was probably the best.

260
00:13:14.960 --> 00:13:17.080
<v Speaker 2>This is the guy where every time there'd be a crime,

261
00:13:17.240 --> 00:13:19.039
<v Speaker 2>they'd be like, oh, he was on a radar, So

262
00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:21.559
<v Speaker 2>how good are you at looking at the information you had.

263
00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:25.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well he's an analyst, man, he is the deep State.

264
00:13:26.039 --> 00:13:30.600
<v Speaker 1>He one hundred one thousand percent. And I think, look,

265
00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:34.360
<v Speaker 1>he's only jumping ship now because he realizes, he realizes

266
00:13:34.440 --> 00:13:38.279
<v Speaker 1>that he did some stuff. That's my theory and the

267
00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:39.679
<v Speaker 1>only way he's gonna be able to it's It's a

268
00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:43.000
<v Speaker 1>lot harder to go after a member of Congress than

269
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:46.320
<v Speaker 1>some some sad, little low t ginger dude.

270
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:48.759
<v Speaker 2>It's imagined voting for Lake Peter Struck, you know what

271
00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:51.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean? Oh, I bet their besties. I bet they talk.

272
00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:53.399
<v Speaker 2>Oh you know they've texted for sure.

273
00:13:53.519 --> 00:13:55.679
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, well, you know Peter Struck does like the

274
00:13:55.759 --> 00:14:01.679
<v Speaker 1>text so and his and his chick. So I wonder

275
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:04.240
<v Speaker 1>if Peter Struck sent the same kind of text though

276
00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:09.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know. Peter Struck is literally

277
00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:14.000
<v Speaker 1>a demon, so like dude, that was one that was

278
00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:16.759
<v Speaker 1>one of the craziest, and I know the memes still

279
00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:18.960
<v Speaker 1>out there, but just one of the craziest set of

280
00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:22.440
<v Speaker 1>eyes I've ever seen. And it was in front of Congress.

281
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:24.759
<v Speaker 2>Right, the freeze frame of him or the SlowMo video

282
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:26.679
<v Speaker 2>of him talking in front of Congress, And you're right,

283
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.240
<v Speaker 2>it did look completely demonic. Yeah yeah, and.

284
00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:32.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, by the way, and ladies, I hate to

285
00:14:32.799 --> 00:14:35.919
<v Speaker 1>say this, but generally dudes don't win the crazy eye contest.

286
00:14:36.679 --> 00:14:38.799
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know if it's just because women emote

287
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:41.840
<v Speaker 1>more emotion or whatever, but this guy's given anything I've

288
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:45.679
<v Speaker 1>ever seen a run for his money. So anyway, yeah,

289
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:48.120
<v Speaker 1>I'll vote for him if you're in the seventeenth District

290
00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:50.720
<v Speaker 1>of New York wherever the heck that is, I don't

291
00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:53.200
<v Speaker 1>know where that is. And also, dude's been living in

292
00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:56.279
<v Speaker 1>uh his de FBI analysts, he's been living in DC

293
00:14:56.440 --> 00:14:58.279
<v Speaker 1>for eighteen years and he just goes up and runs

294
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:02.799
<v Speaker 1>in New York. How does that work? Oh wait, Hillary Clinton,

295
00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:05.799
<v Speaker 1>I forgot it works fine up in New York. So

296
00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:08.440
<v Speaker 1>that's the thing, So go check it out. It really

297
00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:11.039
<v Speaker 1>I can't ross and I have tried to do it justice,

298
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:16.080
<v Speaker 1>but it's so much worse if you watch the video too.

299
00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:20.000
<v Speaker 1>A lot of different things going on there. Uh do

300
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:20.960
<v Speaker 1>do do?

301
00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:21.639
<v Speaker 4>All?

302
00:15:21.720 --> 00:15:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Right? So oh where do I Where do I start?

303
00:15:25.159 --> 00:15:27.080
<v Speaker 1>By the way, people are sending me all their FBI

304
00:15:27.200 --> 00:15:29.919
<v Speaker 1>jokes here, No, no, no, all look in all seriousness

305
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:32.759
<v Speaker 1>with that dude. That is exactly the that's exactly the

306
00:15:32.799 --> 00:15:35.120
<v Speaker 1>problem in the FBI. I know Peter Struck was the

307
00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:38.080
<v Speaker 1>face of it, but it's a thousand dudes like that guy.

308
00:15:38.679 --> 00:15:43.320
<v Speaker 1>He's clearly hyperpartisan. He's lying to you saying that you know,

309
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:46.919
<v Speaker 1>it's so secret what he's doing. Uh, that it's so

310
00:15:47.039 --> 00:15:50.440
<v Speaker 1>secret that he has a Twitter handle with FBI in it,

311
00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:55.159
<v Speaker 1>that he's been super active since twenty eighteen. So like

312
00:15:55.360 --> 00:15:58.519
<v Speaker 1>the whole narrative of the whole thing is BS and

313
00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:01.679
<v Speaker 1>I firmly believe he's getting out because he realizes that

314
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:05.120
<v Speaker 1>he has he has operated in a way that is

315
00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:08.360
<v Speaker 1>that is going to be unacceptable, and who knows, maybe

316
00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:12.360
<v Speaker 1>even finds himself embroidered. It's actually a bit of a

317
00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:17.360
<v Speaker 1>gamble on the part of the Democrats to uh get

318
00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:23.480
<v Speaker 1>behind this guy as their challenger because we don't know.

319
00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:26.000
<v Speaker 1>We hope they do something. We don't know what Patel

320
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:29.720
<v Speaker 1>and Bongino are doing up there, and I know that,

321
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:31.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, there's this big argument over the wait and see,

322
00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:33.759
<v Speaker 1>don't wait and see. They've only been there a month.

323
00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:36.279
<v Speaker 1>They need to get a handle on what's going on

324
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:39.480
<v Speaker 1>before you start, you know, you start. I don't say

325
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:41.720
<v Speaker 1>shooting people because I don't mean that literally, but you

326
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:43.360
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, putting them out of their misery,

327
00:16:43.440 --> 00:16:46.000
<v Speaker 1>so to speak, and maybe even criminally charging some of them.

328
00:16:47.399 --> 00:16:50.799
<v Speaker 1>So if this dude who gives me all the vibes

329
00:16:50.879 --> 00:16:56.120
<v Speaker 1>that he may have done things, I don't know that

330
00:16:56.159 --> 00:16:59.879
<v Speaker 1>he did things, but did things to sidestep regulation, which

331
00:16:59.879 --> 00:17:03.000
<v Speaker 1>we've seen a lot of this. Right. You saw what

332
00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:08.240
<v Speaker 1>happened was struck. You saw it with Andy Witts's bucket. Now,

333
00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:11.839
<v Speaker 1>who then, of course gets a job at CNNMSNBC, the

334
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:16.079
<v Speaker 1>former assistant director, right, playing fast and loose doing stuff.

335
00:17:16.160 --> 00:17:18.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, maybe do you think this guy was in

336
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:24.680
<v Speaker 1>on the attempted kidnap of the Michigan governor? I mean

337
00:17:24.720 --> 00:17:28.039
<v Speaker 1>that thing? Is that thing? One hundred percent was FBI.

338
00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:32.039
<v Speaker 1>Almost everyone involved was FBI. You just found a few

339
00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:35.079
<v Speaker 1>yahoos who liked to do tactical practices in their PT

340
00:17:35.319 --> 00:17:41.240
<v Speaker 1>cruiser and basically walk them into it. So I don't

341
00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:43.480
<v Speaker 1>know what you could potentially dig up on this dude,

342
00:17:43.559 --> 00:17:48.079
<v Speaker 1>but could be a problem, man, could be a problem.

343
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:52.680
<v Speaker 1>All right. So wow, people are sending me all sorts

344
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:54.559
<v Speaker 1>of stuff this morning. All right, hang on, I got

345
00:17:54.599 --> 00:18:00.480
<v Speaker 1>stuff to get to, like betting on the Pope and

346
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:04.319
<v Speaker 1>and well, actually this isn't FBI, but let me throw

347
00:18:04.359 --> 00:18:08.519
<v Speaker 1>this in here. So this is this is wild to me.

348
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember Peanut, Rip rip Peanut, Peanut the squirrel there,

349
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:19.640
<v Speaker 1>And it wasn't just Peanut. Uh, he had a raccoon friend, Uh, Fred, right,

350
00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:23.559
<v Speaker 1>Fred the raccoon and if you remember, this guy had

351
00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:27.640
<v Speaker 1>him in the house. Uh. Basically, the the warrant squad

352
00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:30.680
<v Speaker 1>showed up from a state wildlife and everything else and

353
00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:34.799
<v Speaker 1>they confiscated I think it's the Department of Environmental Conservationist

354
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:38.079
<v Speaker 1>what they call it in New York. And they showed

355
00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:43.880
<v Speaker 1>up and grabbed him and immediately, uh euthanized him. And

356
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:47.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how how many votes that propelled. But

357
00:18:47.160 --> 00:18:49.640
<v Speaker 1>the timing couldn't have been worse, because all of a sudden,

358
00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:53.279
<v Speaker 1>it you know, turned into you know, just ahead of

359
00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:55.880
<v Speaker 1>the election, do it for peanut. Look at what these

360
00:18:55.920 --> 00:18:59.799
<v Speaker 1>months these big government monsters want to do. But I didn't.

361
00:19:01.119 --> 00:19:03.640
<v Speaker 1>It's now becoming quite clear it wasn't just like the

362
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:05.480
<v Speaker 1>one lady who they were kind of throwing it at

363
00:19:05.480 --> 00:19:07.839
<v Speaker 1>her feet, driving it forward because she's just angry.

364
00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:08.640
<v Speaker 5>No.

365
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:14.119
<v Speaker 1>According to Judicial Watch, there was over one hundred and

366
00:19:14.319 --> 00:19:21.599
<v Speaker 1>sixty three pages of communications putting together the case, the

367
00:19:21.799 --> 00:19:24.599
<v Speaker 1>strategy for the takedown. I guess if you want to

368
00:19:24.599 --> 00:19:29.039
<v Speaker 1>call it that, the acquisition of the of a squirrel

369
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:34.039
<v Speaker 1>and a raccoon, they pre that's pregame. That wasn't just

370
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:36.720
<v Speaker 1>one person doing this as partly. This was a whole

371
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:41.559
<v Speaker 1>group of people that coordinated and strategized how to go

372
00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:45.240
<v Speaker 1>murder a squirrel and a raccoon, which, let me tell you,

373
00:19:45.279 --> 00:19:47.519
<v Speaker 1>when I was a kid, the strategy was me looking

374
00:19:47.519 --> 00:19:50.960
<v Speaker 1>at my buddy going, amen, you wanna go hunting? That

375
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:54.000
<v Speaker 1>was it. That was a strategy. And if we're just

376
00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:56.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're doing a little small game there when

377
00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:58.279
<v Speaker 1>I was a little little kid. Twenty two Marlin, I'm

378
00:19:58.319 --> 00:20:02.079
<v Speaker 1>sure many of you have one. It's a great teaching

379
00:20:02.119 --> 00:20:07.599
<v Speaker 1>your kid to shoot gun. Love that firearm. Classic, absolute classic.

380
00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:10.160
<v Speaker 1>I had one, My buddy had one. Outside of twenty

381
00:20:10.160 --> 00:20:15.119
<v Speaker 1>to two fifty. If we're going a little bigger and yeah, no,

382
00:20:15.640 --> 00:20:18.799
<v Speaker 1>this took a whole gaggle of bureaucrats one hundred and

383
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:24.200
<v Speaker 1>sixty three pages of communications to coordinate a squirrel raccoon acquisition,

384
00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:30.039
<v Speaker 1>and they in it at every at every communication that

385
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:33.119
<v Speaker 1>mentions the postgame, what they're gonna do with them. They

386
00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:37.640
<v Speaker 1>planned to murder them. They weren't like, well, let's get

387
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:39.559
<v Speaker 1>them and see, if you know, put them in quarantine

388
00:20:39.559 --> 00:20:42.599
<v Speaker 1>and see if they develop any symptoms of rabies, which

389
00:20:42.640 --> 00:20:46.559
<v Speaker 1>is what you would do with a pet. Maybe, right,

390
00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:48.920
<v Speaker 1>if you got a pet and you're concerned that they

391
00:20:49.000 --> 00:20:51.759
<v Speaker 1>might be rabies, and you have them and you can

392
00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:54.359
<v Speaker 1>you can quarantine them and then you look for those signs.

393
00:20:54.400 --> 00:20:57.599
<v Speaker 1>You don't just murder them and then start checking their brain.

394
00:20:58.039 --> 00:21:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Now you might do that to astray animal that you

395
00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:02.799
<v Speaker 1>think is rabid. That's bit of human because you need

396
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:06.839
<v Speaker 1>to get that information. But that's not what's going on here. Now.

397
00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:12.400
<v Speaker 1>I understand somebody was chomped on during this, right, but

398
00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:15.640
<v Speaker 1>it's but a bit a gloved hand. I don't even

399
00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:18.599
<v Speaker 1>know if it drew blood or if it actually pierced.

400
00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:22.279
<v Speaker 1>It didn't feel good. They got some jaw strength on them.

401
00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Obviously they eat nuts. But yeah, man, the whole thing

402
00:21:26.119 --> 00:21:28.640
<v Speaker 1>is weird. But one hundred and sixty three pages to

403
00:21:28.680 --> 00:21:33.000
<v Speaker 1>coordinate the murder of a squirrel absolutely wild to me.

404
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:36.839
<v Speaker 1>And I just again, it just shows you the cancer

405
00:21:36.960 --> 00:21:40.160
<v Speaker 1>that you have in so many of these government positions,

406
00:21:40.680 --> 00:21:49.960
<v Speaker 1>whether it's you know, Captain low Ti there running for Congress,

407
00:21:50.039 --> 00:21:52.680
<v Speaker 1>former FBI guy, or the sick people that would sit

408
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:55.519
<v Speaker 1>around in the state of New York and coordinate for

409
00:21:55.640 --> 00:21:58.640
<v Speaker 1>weeks to get a squirrel just so they can murder it.

410
00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:04.519
<v Speaker 1>Ads just wild to me, all right. A couple other

411
00:22:04.599 --> 00:22:08.519
<v Speaker 1>things here real quick. I saw this. Of course, it

412
00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:12.559
<v Speaker 1>is an article on wr L, but they didn't write it.

413
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:18.720
<v Speaker 1>It's apre the here is the headline, and it just

414
00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:22.920
<v Speaker 1>shows you the continued level of scumbaggery. And by the way,

415
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:26.359
<v Speaker 1>I think that the media is going to be worse now.

416
00:22:27.240 --> 00:22:32.680
<v Speaker 1>I think that they are so upset over the the

417
00:22:32.839 --> 00:22:37.160
<v Speaker 1>alternative media being granted access to the White House press briefings.

418
00:22:37.160 --> 00:22:39.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you saw CNN out there harassing

419
00:22:40.119 --> 00:22:42.799
<v Speaker 1>the other journalist in front of the White House yesterday,

420
00:22:43.119 --> 00:22:44.880
<v Speaker 1>why do you think you should be here? And good

421
00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:46.799
<v Speaker 1>on them, one of them said, because you guys all

422
00:22:46.880 --> 00:22:49.440
<v Speaker 1>lied and people just want to get news and you

423
00:22:49.519 --> 00:22:52.880
<v Speaker 1>failed right to their face. So good on them. But

424
00:22:53.160 --> 00:22:56.000
<v Speaker 1>like they're so butt hed over this, and AP is

425
00:22:56.039 --> 00:22:59.119
<v Speaker 1>so mad because remember AP was one of the two

426
00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:04.480
<v Speaker 1>outlets that really have been getting the main focus of

427
00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:07.480
<v Speaker 1>the Trump Remember the AAP wasn't allowed in a couple things,

428
00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:11.680
<v Speaker 1>and it was because they refused to acknowledge, among other things,

429
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the Gulf of America, which is really rich. Because literally

430
00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:20.599
<v Speaker 1>the Biden administration strategy for half the things they actually

431
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:23.200
<v Speaker 1>did do was to change the names of things, and

432
00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:27.279
<v Speaker 1>AP dutifully went along with it. Oh, that's not Fort

433
00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Bragg anymore perfect, We'll immediately, we'll immediately recognize it. They

434
00:23:33.200 --> 00:23:36.519
<v Speaker 1>actually were recognizing the change of Fort Bragg prior to

435
00:23:36.559 --> 00:23:39.880
<v Speaker 1>the official renaming of it. They just set it out

436
00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:43.640
<v Speaker 1>of the President said it, and so AP is just

437
00:23:43.759 --> 00:23:46.519
<v Speaker 1>out to get everyone in this administration. But this is

438
00:23:46.680 --> 00:23:51.160
<v Speaker 1>particularly nasty. So the headline must damage Tesla's brand in

439
00:23:51.319 --> 00:23:55.680
<v Speaker 1>just a few months. Fixing it will likely take longer. Okay,

440
00:23:56.839 --> 00:23:58.920
<v Speaker 1>so what they're talking about is they're talking about the

441
00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:03.759
<v Speaker 1>earnings call yesterday, and it is not inaccurate to say

442
00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:09.039
<v Speaker 1>that Tesla is down from a sales perspective. However, Tesla

443
00:24:09.119 --> 00:24:12.839
<v Speaker 1>has some things going for it that are not purely

444
00:24:13.839 --> 00:24:15.759
<v Speaker 1>how many cars do you sell? It's not as simple

445
00:24:15.799 --> 00:24:19.839
<v Speaker 1>as that, because Tesla, a big part of their valuation

446
00:24:20.559 --> 00:24:24.799
<v Speaker 1>is on the advancement and the propelling forward of driverless technology,

447
00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:29.079
<v Speaker 1>especially not just as it pertains to individuals. Cars they

448
00:24:29.119 --> 00:24:32.359
<v Speaker 1>may buy, which arguably is among the best in the world,

449
00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:36.240
<v Speaker 1>probably the best in the world, their newest one at

450
00:24:36.240 --> 00:24:42.880
<v Speaker 1>this point. But how that works in a taxi situation,

451
00:24:43.680 --> 00:24:47.039
<v Speaker 1>and how that works in a shipping situation, that's going

452
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:49.160
<v Speaker 1>to be the holy grail. And I know truck drivers

453
00:24:49.160 --> 00:24:50.839
<v Speaker 1>don't want to hear this, but there's a lot of

454
00:24:50.880 --> 00:24:55.000
<v Speaker 1>companies working on this. They want to be able to

455
00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:57.599
<v Speaker 1>run big rig trucks with no drivers, which by the way,

456
00:24:57.599 --> 00:24:59.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't think the public's going to be a big

457
00:24:59.119 --> 00:25:02.680
<v Speaker 1>fan of, but that is technology they're working on. Just

458
00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:07.160
<v Speaker 1>due to the size of those loads. Man, it makes

459
00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:11.559
<v Speaker 1>me obscenely nervous for some to see some semi truck

460
00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:13.880
<v Speaker 1>going down the road and there's nobody at the wheel,

461
00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:17.119
<v Speaker 1>knowing what that thing weighs and the damage that it

462
00:25:17.119 --> 00:25:21.759
<v Speaker 1>could do if there's a problem. So, but this is

463
00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:24.680
<v Speaker 1>all future stuff, and so there is a large amount

464
00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:29.640
<v Speaker 1>of the valuation of Tesla that is based on applications

465
00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:33.039
<v Speaker 1>of their self driving technology and not just the selling

466
00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:35.839
<v Speaker 1>of cars. So you can go ahead and report all

467
00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:37.720
<v Speaker 1>this and you can say, hey, here's the numbers. Here,

468
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:40.920
<v Speaker 1>here's what the numbers were, And does it mean that

469
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Tesla is likely hemorrhaged buyers on the left. Sure, it

470
00:25:45.440 --> 00:25:48.759
<v Speaker 1>absolutely does. There's no question that they have. But I

471
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:50.839
<v Speaker 1>want you to listen how they explain all of this,

472
00:25:51.319 --> 00:25:53.319
<v Speaker 1>because they they're like, how can we say this in

473
00:25:53.359 --> 00:25:57.920
<v Speaker 1>the nastiest way possible. Sales have plunge for Tesla amid

474
00:25:57.960 --> 00:26:01.279
<v Speaker 1>protests and boycotts over must embrace of the far right

475
00:26:01.319 --> 00:26:04.759
<v Speaker 1>wing views. Well, here we go again. What do you

476
00:26:04.799 --> 00:26:08.880
<v Speaker 1>mean embrace of far right wing views? Right, that's that's

477
00:26:08.920 --> 00:26:12.359
<v Speaker 1>the apie's code for this guy's essentially, you know, a

478
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:16.880
<v Speaker 1>white supremacist or you know, insert whatever whatever group they

479
00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:21.559
<v Speaker 1>want to attach them to must clearly is embracing right

480
00:26:21.599 --> 00:26:26.960
<v Speaker 1>wing views. There would be half the country that voted

481
00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:30.519
<v Speaker 1>for this administration like, he's not doing anything outside of

482
00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:34.079
<v Speaker 1>what was promised. So for you to attach far right

483
00:26:34.119 --> 00:26:38.079
<v Speaker 1>wing views is I think them going. I think them

484
00:26:38.119 --> 00:26:40.480
<v Speaker 1>wanting to pretend like he did a Nazi salute. And

485
00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:44.400
<v Speaker 1>it just shows you how gone these reporters are because

486
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:47.519
<v Speaker 1>they're not acting as reporters anymore. You would never say

487
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:51.079
<v Speaker 1>far left wing views. In the opposite situation, you wouldn't.

488
00:26:51.880 --> 00:26:55.160
<v Speaker 1>You would call it mainstream or embracing of the current

489
00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:58.279
<v Speaker 1>administration is how you would word it, and that would

490
00:26:58.279 --> 00:27:01.000
<v Speaker 1>be accurate. But you didn't work like that. No, no,

491
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:03.000
<v Speaker 1>no no, you had to go with these super scary,

492
00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:06.759
<v Speaker 1>far right wing views. Profits have been sliced by two

493
00:27:06.839 --> 00:27:09.680
<v Speaker 1>thirds so far this year, and rivals from China, Europe

494
00:27:09.680 --> 00:27:14.559
<v Speaker 1>and US are pouncing. Oh we got some pouncing. And

495
00:27:14.680 --> 00:27:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday came some relief as Musk announced in earning calls

496
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:20.759
<v Speaker 1>with investors he would be scaling back his government cost

497
00:27:20.799 --> 00:27:25.839
<v Speaker 1>cutting job, able to focus more of his attention on,

498
00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:28.960
<v Speaker 1>in fact, the you know, Tesla, although obviously he has

499
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:33.119
<v Speaker 1>other companies. Well, I have a question. So if your

500
00:27:33.119 --> 00:27:37.960
<v Speaker 1>theory is that the reason auto sales are down is

501
00:27:38.039 --> 00:27:43.079
<v Speaker 1>because of his far right wing views and people are

502
00:27:43.079 --> 00:27:47.000
<v Speaker 1>opposed to him and not necessarily the product, how would

503
00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:51.359
<v Speaker 1>him being more around the product in fact be better?

504
00:27:52.400 --> 00:27:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Like that doesn't make any sense because if you're like, ah,

505
00:27:54.759 --> 00:27:57.599
<v Speaker 1>Musk is the problem, not the product, well, then more

506
00:27:57.680 --> 00:28:01.359
<v Speaker 1>Musk solves the problem. Like it. There's a logical fallacy

507
00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:05.160
<v Speaker 1>in the way that you wrote this, and again they

508
00:28:05.160 --> 00:28:07.359
<v Speaker 1>wrote it to be as nasty as possible. There's a

509
00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:10.400
<v Speaker 1>story to tell with the numbers. There's discussions to be had.

510
00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:16.640
<v Speaker 1>But you know, musk is to call musk embracing of

511
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:19.720
<v Speaker 1>far right views is to ignore that that's what the

512
00:28:19.759 --> 00:28:22.799
<v Speaker 1>majority of the country voted for. So maybe you're the

513
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:26.279
<v Speaker 1>one who is far off of the norm, but of

514
00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:28.680
<v Speaker 1>course that's how they're going to run it. So at

515
00:28:28.680 --> 00:28:30.599
<v Speaker 1>this point, here's what I'd say if you see us,

516
00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:33.519
<v Speaker 1>If you see a story from the Associated Press right

517
00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:35.960
<v Speaker 1>now and it has anything to do with politics, really

518
00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:38.920
<v Speaker 1>any social issues, just ignore it. They're too far gone.

519
00:28:40.119 --> 00:28:41.960
<v Speaker 1>I've seen them. I don't know if you've seen them

520
00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:44.079
<v Speaker 1>on Ross on Twitter? Do you do you see ads?

521
00:28:44.119 --> 00:28:47.640
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember. You see ads now? Right? Associated Press

522
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:53.000
<v Speaker 1>is advertising for brands. This is where they are financially,

523
00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:54.960
<v Speaker 1>and it couldn't happen to a better group of people.

524
00:28:55.519 --> 00:28:57.720
<v Speaker 1>So I see these things and it has the Associated

525
00:28:57.759 --> 00:29:01.519
<v Speaker 1>Press literal account and then it's like it'll say a

526
00:29:01.640 --> 00:29:05.039
<v Speaker 1>sponsorship and then it'll be like, you know, for Jim's

527
00:29:05.119 --> 00:29:08.000
<v Speaker 1>jerky or something, and then they's labeled AD. But you

528
00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:10.920
<v Speaker 1>see the Associated Press logos for a moment you think

529
00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:14.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a legitimate story there, and they're they're trying to

530
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:16.640
<v Speaker 1>propel that notoriety because it's the only thing they have left.

531
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:21.160
<v Speaker 1>They're not doing quality journalism here. And I got to

532
00:29:21.200 --> 00:29:23.759
<v Speaker 1>tell you, I've met multiple people that have worked as AP,

533
00:29:24.000 --> 00:29:28.119
<v Speaker 1>especially like regional AP people, over the years. I'd say

534
00:29:28.119 --> 00:29:30.359
<v Speaker 1>two of them I thought were good journalists. The rest

535
00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:35.519
<v Speaker 1>have been really partisan. That's just as natural attractive. And

536
00:29:35.559 --> 00:29:38.640
<v Speaker 1>you know why because one of the things that you

537
00:29:38.759 --> 00:29:41.759
<v Speaker 1>kind of get into, especially when you're a state AP person,

538
00:29:42.440 --> 00:29:46.880
<v Speaker 1>is you get you help you help handle the churn

539
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:50.079
<v Speaker 1>of news, right because I used to when I did

540
00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:52.599
<v Speaker 1>the reporting side of things, I would submit to AP

541
00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:55.920
<v Speaker 1>because most you know, at that point, most radio outlets,

542
00:29:55.960 --> 00:29:59.319
<v Speaker 1>if they had a local newsroom, were AP associates, and

543
00:29:59.400 --> 00:30:02.519
<v Speaker 1>so I would submit stories. I would write stories about

544
00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:05.079
<v Speaker 1>local politics where I was, and then I would submit them.

545
00:30:05.079 --> 00:30:08.119
<v Speaker 1>And for whatever reason, it was really hard from the

546
00:30:08.200 --> 00:30:12.599
<v Speaker 1>perspective of, you know, if you were even pretty balanced,

547
00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:16.240
<v Speaker 1>and this was in Minnesota, to get on the state

548
00:30:16.279 --> 00:30:19.119
<v Speaker 1>AP wire with any of your stories. They were largely ignored.

549
00:30:20.279 --> 00:30:22.960
<v Speaker 1>And it used to frustrate me because there were three

550
00:30:23.079 --> 00:30:25.200
<v Speaker 1>or four reporters whose stuff always got on there, and

551
00:30:25.240 --> 00:30:27.359
<v Speaker 1>there were people like Don Shelby, who was like the

552
00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:30.119
<v Speaker 1>big left wing TV guy who didn't write any of

553
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:33.000
<v Speaker 1>his own stuff. Who would get all this credit? And

554
00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:35.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that's still the process with AP,

555
00:30:36.039 --> 00:30:40.079
<v Speaker 1>but just the first three paragraphs by writer Bernard Condon

556
00:30:42.240 --> 00:30:46.119
<v Speaker 1>is pure garbage, pure partisan garbage. And of course Ral

557
00:30:46.240 --> 00:30:49.160
<v Speaker 1>dutifully reprints it all right, six fifty Hang on, hey

558
00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:55.599
<v Speaker 1>that Elon Musk what like fifth company? Neuralink is potentially

559
00:30:55.680 --> 00:30:58.000
<v Speaker 1>going to fetch an eight and a half billion dollar

560
00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:01.440
<v Speaker 1>valuation and this thing barely I don't say barely up

561
00:31:01.480 --> 00:31:04.759
<v Speaker 1>and running. Obviously the technology is very advanced, but the

562
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:09.000
<v Speaker 1>actual implementation into people is right at the beginning. So

563
00:31:09.200 --> 00:31:11.119
<v Speaker 1>like there's a lot of lot of what ifs that

564
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:13.279
<v Speaker 1>ross you. You were saying you were you wanted a

565
00:31:13.319 --> 00:31:15.559
<v Speaker 1>neuralink when this first conversation started.

566
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:18.039
<v Speaker 2>Dude, Yeah, yeah, put the chip in my head. Yes,

567
00:31:19.079 --> 00:31:25.920
<v Speaker 2>just so I'm gonna not go early adopter, because imagine

568
00:31:26.279 --> 00:31:28.799
<v Speaker 2>if you could hack the neuralinks and you could make

569
00:31:28.839 --> 00:31:30.519
<v Speaker 2>your enemies defecate themselves.

570
00:31:31.720 --> 00:31:33.519
<v Speaker 1>Has anyone even considered.

571
00:31:33.079 --> 00:31:34.680
<v Speaker 2>This, oh a poop chip?

572
00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:37.039
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's not just a poop chip, but if it's

573
00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:42.000
<v Speaker 1>a chip that can essentially instruct bodily functions, uh no,

574
00:31:42.200 --> 00:31:43.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean how deep does it go?

575
00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:47.559
<v Speaker 2>All jokes aside, Man, the neuralink stuff is really impressive.

576
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh, it's incredibly impressive.

577
00:31:49.720 --> 00:31:52.279
<v Speaker 2>And its ability to help people with like spinal cord

578
00:31:52.359 --> 00:31:55.240
<v Speaker 2>injuries in that sort of correct. Yeah, I mean that's

579
00:31:55.279 --> 00:31:56.000
<v Speaker 2>like miraculous.

580
00:31:56.559 --> 00:31:56.759
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

581
00:31:57.119 --> 00:31:59.359
<v Speaker 1>Didn't they just have a movie about this? The movie

582
00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:01.519
<v Speaker 1>I was thinking about that kind of has some like

583
00:32:01.640 --> 00:32:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Eurolink feel to It is called Upgrade, And it's actually

584
00:32:05.920 --> 00:32:07.960
<v Speaker 1>more than five years It was twenty eighteen, so seven

585
00:32:08.039 --> 00:32:10.839
<v Speaker 1>years ago. The movie came out pretty good. You like

586
00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:14.720
<v Speaker 1>action flicks, little sci fi action ross, I would highly

587
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:18.640
<v Speaker 1>recommend this movie. So the premise is the dude and

588
00:32:18.759 --> 00:32:22.359
<v Speaker 1>his wife just living the dream. He hates the new technology.

589
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:26.640
<v Speaker 1>He still has an internal combustion car, whereas everything else

590
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:32.640
<v Speaker 1>is like, you know, super high end futuristic. The car

591
00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:34.519
<v Speaker 1>does everything. You sit in the back of the lap

592
00:32:34.559 --> 00:32:39.759
<v Speaker 1>of luxury, and his wife. His wife is a designer

593
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:42.119
<v Speaker 1>of some sort I can't remember exactly what it is,

594
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:45.160
<v Speaker 1>and she has this mysterious, really rich client who basically

595
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:48.759
<v Speaker 1>turns out to be far creepier Mark Zuckerberg, if that's possible.

596
00:32:49.759 --> 00:32:54.200
<v Speaker 1>And then the wife and husband are attacked by a

597
00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:57.440
<v Speaker 1>gang and the wife is killed. This is all the setup.

598
00:32:57.440 --> 00:32:59.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm not ruining anything for you. The wife is killed,

599
00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:03.640
<v Speaker 1>he is paralyzed, and the movie really kind of kicks

600
00:33:03.720 --> 00:33:07.200
<v Speaker 1>off from there and he gets an experimental chip attached

601
00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:11.400
<v Speaker 1>to a spine and now he's basically Superman. So and

602
00:33:11.440 --> 00:33:15.839
<v Speaker 1>I won't ruin anything about, you know, past that, but yeah,

603
00:33:15.839 --> 00:33:18.599
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty pretty good movie. I don't think it's quite neuralink,

604
00:33:18.680 --> 00:33:23.799
<v Speaker 1>but it's it's it's it's it's along the same premise

605
00:33:23.920 --> 00:33:27.480
<v Speaker 1>because as Ross was pointing out before he made a

606
00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:30.440
<v Speaker 1>very cryptic statement about what else neuralink could do for you,

607
00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:35.000
<v Speaker 1>was that most of this, much of the early testing

608
00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:38.160
<v Speaker 1>is focused on helping people with spinal cord injuries. And

609
00:33:38.279 --> 00:33:41.279
<v Speaker 1>that's a very laudable goal right there. Is it going

610
00:33:41.359 --> 00:33:44.960
<v Speaker 1>to make them Superman across between Superman and Neo from

611
00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:49.279
<v Speaker 1>the matrix? Probably not, But you know, just retaining some

612
00:33:49.519 --> 00:33:52.720
<v Speaker 1>motor function if you're a quadriplegic in the upper echelon

613
00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:59.920
<v Speaker 1>of your body is absolutely life changing, obviously, and if

614
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:03.279
<v Speaker 1>it can do more that that would be great. And

615
00:34:03.480 --> 00:34:05.680
<v Speaker 1>so that's how you get there. But there are other

616
00:34:05.799 --> 00:34:09.360
<v Speaker 1>applications for not just how it impacts the spinal cord,

617
00:34:09.480 --> 00:34:12.719
<v Speaker 1>but you know what could that do for the human brain?

618
00:34:15.199 --> 00:34:20.679
<v Speaker 1>And remember they have been stymied thus far on really

619
00:34:20.719 --> 00:34:23.679
<v Speaker 1>getting into research because one of the death by a

620
00:34:23.760 --> 00:34:28.599
<v Speaker 1>thousand cuts things that the previous administration undertook is they

621
00:34:28.800 --> 00:34:33.440
<v Speaker 1>basically kept they denied almost every research request from Neuralink

622
00:34:33.599 --> 00:34:37.079
<v Speaker 1>during the Biden administration. Why do you think that is?

623
00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:39.079
<v Speaker 1>Do you think it's because it's mad scientists and he's

624
00:34:39.119 --> 00:34:42.800
<v Speaker 1>not safe ros Do you have a theory why Neuralink,

625
00:34:42.840 --> 00:34:47.159
<v Speaker 1>whi's been doing research prior to Biden, was almost stopped

626
00:34:47.519 --> 00:34:50.639
<v Speaker 1>completely for four years and is now do you have

627
00:34:50.679 --> 00:34:56.280
<v Speaker 1>any theories there? Because some people have some theories and

628
00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.440
<v Speaker 1>if those theories are correct that this was personal, I

629
00:35:00.519 --> 00:35:02.239
<v Speaker 1>want you I want to point out that it just

630
00:35:02.440 --> 00:35:10.360
<v Speaker 1>adds to the stack of how awful Democrats are in

631
00:35:11.679 --> 00:35:17.039
<v Speaker 1>Washington that they would they would, for personal, petty reasons

632
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:21.480
<v Speaker 1>hold back one of the most promising potential pieces of

633
00:35:21.599 --> 00:35:25.199
<v Speaker 1>technology to help people with spinal cord injuries for their

634
00:35:25.239 --> 00:35:28.920
<v Speaker 1>own partisan reasons. And when you say it like that,

635
00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:31.880
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty awful, isn't it. But tell me I'm wrong.

636
00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:36.519
<v Speaker 1>And before you think, well, it's just because Trump will

637
00:35:36.559 --> 00:35:38.920
<v Speaker 1>let him do all this doctor Mengelas stuff you have

638
00:35:39.039 --> 00:35:42.639
<v Speaker 1>to understand that the people who were going along with

639
00:35:42.800 --> 00:35:45.800
<v Speaker 1>neuralink and investing in neuralink and wanting to be parts

640
00:35:45.800 --> 00:35:48.519
<v Speaker 1>of these studies are some of and they are not

641
00:35:48.960 --> 00:35:52.599
<v Speaker 1>necessarily partisan people, and they're not even necessarily Republicans. A

642
00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:55.280
<v Speaker 1>lot of them are college professors who probably are pretty

643
00:35:55.360 --> 00:35:58.559
<v Speaker 1>liberal at a lot of various institutions, who saw a

644
00:35:58.639 --> 00:36:03.199
<v Speaker 1>lot of promise with this. Meanwhile, there's no problem with

645
00:36:03.320 --> 00:36:05.920
<v Speaker 1>the guy who's running the COVID response doing gain of

646
00:36:06.000 --> 00:36:08.480
<v Speaker 1>function research, knowing about it and lying about it.

647
00:36:08.960 --> 00:36:11.159
<v Speaker 2>Oh, but there is a problem with the guy pushing ivermectin.

648
00:36:11.880 --> 00:36:13.400
<v Speaker 1>And there's a guy. Yeah, there's a problem with the

649
00:36:13.440 --> 00:36:15.880
<v Speaker 1>guy pushing ivermectin, the thing that's one of the most

650
00:36:15.960 --> 00:36:18.960
<v Speaker 1>prescribed drugs in the world, and not even necessarily you

651
00:36:19.079 --> 00:36:20.119
<v Speaker 1>need a prescription.

652
00:36:19.800 --> 00:36:24.440
<v Speaker 2>In most Nobel price winning too. Yeah, well, bringing up

653
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:27.840
<v Speaker 2>awards and stuff. They constantly do this on small things

654
00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:30.440
<v Speaker 2>and bigger things, where they say they're for one thing,

655
00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:32.440
<v Speaker 2>but they're actually for another, and they do something that's

656
00:36:32.480 --> 00:36:34.159
<v Speaker 2>the complete opposite the way.

657
00:36:34.800 --> 00:36:37.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and this is just there's just another example. But

658
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:41.639
<v Speaker 1>it's just how horrible imagine sitting Imagine you're you're somebody

659
00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:44.840
<v Speaker 1>who had because it's a very specific they're studying now

660
00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:49.800
<v Speaker 1>is a very specific type of spinal separation, and you

661
00:36:49.880 --> 00:36:52.320
<v Speaker 1>know it's a starting off point. But imagine you're sitting there,

662
00:36:52.360 --> 00:36:55.360
<v Speaker 1>you're aware that this stuff's going on, and you were

663
00:36:55.440 --> 00:36:57.880
<v Speaker 1>preapproved by the way, as some of these folks were,

664
00:36:57.960 --> 00:36:59.880
<v Speaker 1>for the twenty twenty three study that was not allowed

665
00:36:59.920 --> 00:37:04.440
<v Speaker 1>to be done. And imagine the hope that you have

666
00:37:05.920 --> 00:37:10.679
<v Speaker 1>because the of the despair that you have right this,

667
00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:13.400
<v Speaker 1>this thing happened to you, This is this, and and

668
00:37:13.599 --> 00:37:17.239
<v Speaker 1>now here here is a possibility, and you just hold

669
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:19.719
<v Speaker 1>out hope for any possibility. And then you find out

670
00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:22.559
<v Speaker 1>that this research study that you were like this, I'm

671
00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:25.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna do this right, it's anything's got to be better

672
00:37:25.039 --> 00:37:28.440
<v Speaker 1>than where I'm at right now. It gets put off

673
00:37:28.639 --> 00:37:32.880
<v Speaker 1>and you realize it's so that people could make partisan points.

674
00:37:35.199 --> 00:37:39.639
<v Speaker 1>That's sick man, and frankly, anyone involved in any of that,

675
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:43.719
<v Speaker 1>especially if they're within the medical community, because obviously, you

676
00:37:43.760 --> 00:37:47.159
<v Speaker 1>know Biden's got his partisan medical advisors there should not

677
00:37:47.280 --> 00:37:51.199
<v Speaker 1>work in research anymore. You have decided, you decided, and

678
00:37:51.320 --> 00:37:54.079
<v Speaker 1>you decided that the research didn't matter. You're partisan. What

679
00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:57.960
<v Speaker 1>you're you're once in needs mattered, and you know the

680
00:37:58.039 --> 00:38:01.480
<v Speaker 1>same for the people who demonize the the irom acting

681
00:38:01.559 --> 00:38:06.079
<v Speaker 1>guy and pretended it was nothing but horse paced absolute insanity. Man,

682
00:38:06.760 --> 00:38:08.679
<v Speaker 1>all right, Ross, what was the other thing you wanted

683
00:38:08.679 --> 00:38:10.360
<v Speaker 1>to do with the neuralink we had to go to break?

684
00:38:10.400 --> 00:38:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I forgot what was you had intimated something there?

685
00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:15.320
<v Speaker 2>No, I was talking about you could download the whole

686
00:38:15.320 --> 00:38:16.079
<v Speaker 2>Bible into your head.

687
00:38:16.760 --> 00:38:20.719
<v Speaker 1>That's not the way you said that though. By the way,

688
00:38:21.320 --> 00:38:23.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't know is there any is there anything in

689
00:38:23.599 --> 00:38:27.440
<v Speaker 1>the Bible? How far along are you right now? Deuteronomy?

690
00:38:27.719 --> 00:38:31.519
<v Speaker 2>This morning I read Deuteronomy twelve to sixteen. Okay, all right,

691
00:38:31.679 --> 00:38:33.760
<v Speaker 2>so yeah, I'm not not at that point yet.

692
00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:38.039
<v Speaker 1>All right, so you're not You're what three and a

693
00:38:38.079 --> 00:38:41.039
<v Speaker 1>half books in right? Three and a half? Yeah?

694
00:38:41.159 --> 00:38:42.800
<v Speaker 2>I think I'm on the fifth book, I believe.

695
00:38:43.119 --> 00:38:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I numbers out of my mind.

696
00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:49.960
<v Speaker 1>All right? So is there anything in there about taking

697
00:38:50.039 --> 00:38:55.760
<v Speaker 1>selfies with the Pope's dead body? Why are you laughing?

698
00:38:56.760 --> 00:38:59.960
<v Speaker 1>I never thought I have to ask this question. Vy

699
00:39:00.079 --> 00:39:02.559
<v Speaker 1>stumbled across anything. It's been a very long time since

700
00:39:02.599 --> 00:39:04.119
<v Speaker 1>i've you know, covered to covered the No.

701
00:39:04.199 --> 00:39:06.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't have a I haven't come across the death

702
00:39:06.079 --> 00:39:08.000
<v Speaker 2>of a pope yet. I haven't gotten to that point.

703
00:39:08.000 --> 00:39:09.360
<v Speaker 2>If it isn't there, I don't know, Like I said

704
00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:11.440
<v Speaker 2>once again, Oh there's some stuff in there. Yeah. Like

705
00:39:11.519 --> 00:39:13.480
<v Speaker 2>I said, I'm not get to it, Joe. I just

706
00:39:13.559 --> 00:39:15.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm not at that point. I haven't read it before.

707
00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:18.440
<v Speaker 2>I've gotten to the death of priests like Aaron. But

708
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:20.119
<v Speaker 2>I know I haven't gotten to the pope yet.

709
00:39:20.320 --> 00:39:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Did anyone take pictures of his body? I don't believe

710
00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:27.440
<v Speaker 1>so selfies, I should say, this is why we can't.

711
00:39:27.559 --> 00:39:32.440
<v Speaker 1>This is why fundamentally, I like, it's just it. I

712
00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm to you know what it gives me. The vibes

713
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:39.119
<v Speaker 1>of remember all those pictures at Low Profiles where people

714
00:39:39.159 --> 00:39:43.119
<v Speaker 1>are pretending the rail line at Auschwitz is a balancing beam.

715
00:39:43.199 --> 00:39:47.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they're throwing up gang signs on the tracks at Auschwitz,

716
00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:51.559
<v Speaker 2>Like what is wrong with you? But I mean, so,

717
00:39:51.679 --> 00:39:54.480
<v Speaker 2>I know, pictures in the Sistine Chapel, like you're not

718
00:39:54.559 --> 00:39:55.800
<v Speaker 2>supposed to take photos of it?

719
00:39:55.880 --> 00:39:58.599
<v Speaker 1>That's oh yeah, they app they don't want, they don't

720
00:39:58.599 --> 00:39:59.840
<v Speaker 1>want because of the flash.

721
00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:00.239
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

722
00:40:00.239 --> 00:40:02.679
<v Speaker 1>I've literally been inside and they do not make a

723
00:40:02.760 --> 00:40:04.039
<v Speaker 1>secret of this being.

724
00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:07.639
<v Speaker 2>Right, the thing so Devil's Advocate here, Yeah, I don't

725
00:40:07.679 --> 00:40:09.559
<v Speaker 2>condone it. I wouldn't do it, but I mean, you know,

726
00:40:09.599 --> 00:40:11.039
<v Speaker 2>you don't want to take the photos of the assisting

727
00:40:11.119 --> 00:40:13.639
<v Speaker 2>chapel because of the art and it'll degrade the work, right,

728
00:40:13.719 --> 00:40:18.119
<v Speaker 2>but I mean the pope's dead, right, yes, So how

729
00:40:18.280 --> 00:40:21.920
<v Speaker 2>Lane and State in Devil's Advocate, how well taking a

730
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:26.599
<v Speaker 2>picture of that besides it being you know, not really well,

731
00:40:26.679 --> 00:40:29.239
<v Speaker 2>and keep in mind that they have provided pictures of

732
00:40:29.360 --> 00:40:32.280
<v Speaker 2>him Lane and State the the Vatican.

733
00:40:33.159 --> 00:40:35.280
<v Speaker 1>I well, you know, here's because here's my thing. Is

734
00:40:35.480 --> 00:40:37.360
<v Speaker 1>is it one thing to take a picture of the

735
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:40.199
<v Speaker 1>popeline and state and is it another thing to take

736
00:40:40.239 --> 00:40:42.599
<v Speaker 1>a selfie? Right?

737
00:40:43.719 --> 00:40:44.119
<v Speaker 2>Completely?

738
00:40:44.159 --> 00:40:44.239
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

739
00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:47.639
<v Speaker 2>Ye mean yeah selfie? Yeah yeah, because obviously when they're

740
00:40:47.679 --> 00:40:50.159
<v Speaker 2>parading the body around, right, they that'll be in camera

741
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:51.440
<v Speaker 2>or whatever they film it.

742
00:40:51.840 --> 00:40:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, they don't call it parading. There's a less term

743
00:40:54.039 --> 00:40:57.280
<v Speaker 1>for it. But okay, yes, yeah, and they actually do

744
00:40:57.400 --> 00:41:00.400
<v Speaker 1>a proof of death, which is literally a thing. By

745
00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:04.800
<v Speaker 1>the way, Uh, what is the I always forget the

746
00:41:05.360 --> 00:41:10.400
<v Speaker 1>name of what that person's title is. Basically the person

747
00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:17.639
<v Speaker 1>who's in charge of handling the popes. All right, hang on, okay,

748
00:41:17.760 --> 00:41:24.320
<v Speaker 1>did you did you Sorry, I should know this, but

749
00:41:24.559 --> 00:41:27.519
<v Speaker 1>as a lapse Catholic. Yeah, Carme Lingo, that's what is

750
00:41:27.599 --> 00:41:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Cardinal Karma Lengo.

751
00:41:30.679 --> 00:41:32.599
<v Speaker 2>And by the way, that dude, that's the guy in

752
00:41:32.679 --> 00:41:35.119
<v Speaker 2>the in the the one Dan Brown movie that tries

753
00:41:35.199 --> 00:41:37.960
<v Speaker 2>to blow up the Vatican, right, isn't that It's a title, yes,

754
00:41:38.079 --> 00:41:40.079
<v Speaker 2>but he's got that title in the movie.

755
00:41:40.440 --> 00:41:45.280
<v Speaker 1>Yes, that's the spoiler. By the way, it was that's

756
00:41:45.360 --> 00:41:50.119
<v Speaker 1>Angels and Demons that one, right. Yeah, yeah, so I

757
00:41:50.159 --> 00:41:52.079
<v Speaker 1>know that guy Ross has ruined the whole movie for

758
00:41:52.199 --> 00:41:54.880
<v Speaker 1>you guys. So all right, No, so that is an

759
00:41:54.880 --> 00:41:59.679
<v Speaker 1>actual title. It's Cardinal Carma Carme Lingo. And so basically

760
00:41:59.800 --> 00:42:04.320
<v Speaker 1>they preside over the right. The next right will be

761
00:42:04.519 --> 00:42:07.840
<v Speaker 1>the ceiling of the coffin, which again I'm sorry, I

762
00:42:07.920 --> 00:42:09.800
<v Speaker 1>can't remember all the Latin terms for this stuff, but

763
00:42:11.039 --> 00:42:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I remember the process. And so like they'll seal it

764
00:42:16.079 --> 00:42:20.599
<v Speaker 1>up on Friday evening and then Saturday it will be

765
00:42:20.719 --> 00:42:25.559
<v Speaker 1>the funeral mass. And then so they have fifteen days

766
00:42:25.760 --> 00:42:28.639
<v Speaker 1>from the time of the Pope's death to actually the

767
00:42:29.199 --> 00:42:34.840
<v Speaker 1>have the the next selection process begin, and said Pope

768
00:42:34.920 --> 00:42:38.639
<v Speaker 1>John Paul actually limited the number and the restrictions on

769
00:42:38.760 --> 00:42:43.559
<v Speaker 1>which cardinals can even take place take part in the

770
00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:47.159
<v Speaker 1>selection process, No more than one hundred and twenty. All

771
00:42:47.239 --> 00:42:49.000
<v Speaker 1>of them have to be under the age of eighty.

772
00:42:49.079 --> 00:42:53.239
<v Speaker 1>There's currently one hundred and thirty five cardinals over that

773
00:42:53.400 --> 00:42:56.760
<v Speaker 1>age or under that age, so there's going to be

774
00:42:56.840 --> 00:42:59.880
<v Speaker 1>fifteen that get left off anyway. But there is an

775
00:43:00.039 --> 00:43:03.599
<v Speaker 1>American connection. So Kevin Ferrell is the Cardinal carmel Ango

776
00:43:04.159 --> 00:43:07.719
<v Speaker 1>and he is He's Irish born, but then his family

777
00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:11.639
<v Speaker 1>came to America. So, uh, Boston Paul is probably happy,

778
00:43:12.800 --> 00:43:15.800
<v Speaker 1>unless he tries to blow up the Vatican.

779
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:18.360
<v Speaker 2>That'll then it'll be a problem. What kind of selfie movie?

780
00:43:18.480 --> 00:43:21.119
<v Speaker 2>What kind of selfies are they taken? With it like

781
00:43:21.239 --> 00:43:22.920
<v Speaker 2>taking with him? Or is it like are they just

782
00:43:22.960 --> 00:43:25.559
<v Speaker 2>sort of like mournful? Are they doing like super Are.

783
00:43:25.519 --> 00:43:28.639
<v Speaker 1>They doing duck face? Yeah? I don't, I don't. I

784
00:43:28.840 --> 00:43:33.679
<v Speaker 1>think that they're probably they're probably not meant to be disrespectful,

785
00:43:33.719 --> 00:43:35.320
<v Speaker 1>do you know what I mean? But I just don't

786
00:43:35.320 --> 00:43:37.800
<v Speaker 1>think people have thought it out. Do you remember that

787
00:43:37.960 --> 00:43:40.360
<v Speaker 1>girl who was at her father's funeral and took a

788
00:43:40.480 --> 00:43:43.079
<v Speaker 1>selfie of herself smiling and posing in front of her

789
00:43:43.119 --> 00:43:46.599
<v Speaker 1>dad's coffin. How much grief. She got. The thing there

790
00:43:46.800 --> 00:43:48.440
<v Speaker 1>was not that she took a picture with her dad,

791
00:43:48.480 --> 00:43:50.840
<v Speaker 1>because if she'd have leaned down and taken as the

792
00:43:50.920 --> 00:43:53.840
<v Speaker 1>last photo with my father, some people would have found

793
00:43:53.840 --> 00:43:55.199
<v Speaker 1>it weird, but I don't know they would have found

794
00:43:55.239 --> 00:43:58.719
<v Speaker 1>it disrespectful. But for her, she struck a TikTok pose.

795
00:43:59.679 --> 00:44:04.159
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, if somebody's doing the you know, you know,

796
00:44:04.440 --> 00:44:07.360
<v Speaker 1>the West Side Gang sign in front of the Pope,

797
00:44:09.079 --> 00:44:11.119
<v Speaker 1>I think you go to special hell. I don't know,

798
00:44:11.239 --> 00:44:13.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know. It's so I think

799
00:44:13.719 --> 00:44:16.239
<v Speaker 1>the content, but I but there are people who just

800
00:44:16.320 --> 00:44:19.440
<v Speaker 1>don't want you taking pictures, even just straight photos of it.

801
00:44:19.480 --> 00:44:20.960
<v Speaker 1>They're freaking out over it. And I don't know what

802
00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:24.639
<v Speaker 1>the line is because I think I think a lot

803
00:44:24.719 --> 00:44:27.159
<v Speaker 1>of people and it's about what society permits. I think

804
00:44:27.159 --> 00:44:30.079
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people wouldn't think it's disrespectful, especially if

805
00:44:30.079 --> 00:44:33.119
<v Speaker 1>you posted something like our holy you know, my holy father,

806
00:44:33.320 --> 00:44:36.719
<v Speaker 1>blah blah blah story about the time you met him

807
00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:40.119
<v Speaker 1>or an inspiration or whatever it is. Some people have

808
00:44:40.199 --> 00:44:42.840
<v Speaker 1>a problem. But when you're taking selfies and you're leaning

809
00:44:42.920 --> 00:44:45.719
<v Speaker 1>yourself into it, I think that's where most people draw

810
00:44:45.800 --> 00:44:50.360
<v Speaker 1>the line. But like you remember that story yesterday whe

811
00:44:50.360 --> 00:44:54.239
<v Speaker 1>the dude's getting eaten by the sharks. Maybe people videoed that,

812
00:44:54.920 --> 00:44:57.440
<v Speaker 1>and I don't think that's disrespectful. But let's say it's

813
00:44:57.440 --> 00:44:59.440
<v Speaker 1>your buddy getting eat by sharks and you lean back

814
00:44:59.480 --> 00:45:02.360
<v Speaker 1>over the bow the boat and you're like hanging out

815
00:45:02.400 --> 00:45:06.480
<v Speaker 1>with Bruce. Right, people are gonna have a problem with that.

816
00:45:06.679 --> 00:45:09.599
<v Speaker 1>So the story needs more I need, I need more

817
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:14.960
<v Speaker 1>filling of the information there, because yeah, certain things are

818
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:17.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a little more disrespectful than others. Uh in

819
00:45:17.880 --> 00:45:21.760
<v Speaker 1>this story there. Uh they describe it's entitled I saw

820
00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:24.400
<v Speaker 1>Pope Francis's body and I couldn't believe we're taking people

821
00:45:24.440 --> 00:45:27.360
<v Speaker 1>were taking pictures on their phones. I mean, I can

822
00:45:27.480 --> 00:45:32.280
<v Speaker 1>we photograph everything, photograph everything, and there's a we'll tweet

823
00:45:32.320 --> 00:45:34.159
<v Speaker 1>the story out. There's a picture if you can. And

824
00:45:34.320 --> 00:45:37.280
<v Speaker 1>and then the picture you see obviously the picture of

825
00:45:37.320 --> 00:45:39.800
<v Speaker 1>the Pope, but you in the foreground you see cell

826
00:45:39.840 --> 00:45:43.079
<v Speaker 1>phone cameras held up and they're not taking selfies. They're

827
00:45:43.280 --> 00:45:50.360
<v Speaker 1>just taking pictures of the pope line and state. So yeah,

828
00:45:50.480 --> 00:45:52.000
<v Speaker 1>hold on was this? Yeah, here we go through the

829
00:45:52.039 --> 00:45:56.519
<v Speaker 1>crowds filled with selfie sticks and smartphones. So clearly people

830
00:45:56.679 --> 00:46:03.320
<v Speaker 1>were taking selfies too. What is wrong with people? Man?

831
00:46:03.440 --> 00:46:05.360
<v Speaker 1>All right? Seven to twenty, hang on, Let's let me

832
00:46:05.480 --> 00:46:07.079
<v Speaker 1>give you a little peek behind the curtain. I was

833
00:46:07.119 --> 00:46:09.840
<v Speaker 1>having a conversation with a buddy of mine yesterday named

834
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:14.760
<v Speaker 1>Rob and so on the news. On the news, you

835
00:46:14.920 --> 00:46:17.400
<v Speaker 1>probably see it, although it's not a top tier story,

836
00:46:17.480 --> 00:46:20.320
<v Speaker 1>but maybe you've seen that there's a volcano in Central

837
00:46:20.360 --> 00:46:23.639
<v Speaker 1>America decided that it want to do erupt for the

838
00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:28.039
<v Speaker 1>last few days. And uh, that's a volcano. I've literally

839
00:46:28.159 --> 00:46:31.440
<v Speaker 1>been up to the Coldera of and it's it's pretty crazy.

840
00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:34.000
<v Speaker 1>It looks like a moonscape down in this thing because

841
00:46:34.000 --> 00:46:36.119
<v Speaker 1>it's just a big acid lake in it. It's the

842
00:46:36.199 --> 00:46:39.360
<v Speaker 1>volcano is called polaz po As if you want to

843
00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:42.199
<v Speaker 1>look up the video. It's pretty crazy. But even craziers

844
00:46:42.239 --> 00:46:44.840
<v Speaker 1>they have like a wildlife refuge halfway up the side

845
00:46:44.880 --> 00:46:47.519
<v Speaker 1>of this thing, which I don't know why I did

846
00:46:47.519 --> 00:46:51.039
<v Speaker 1>in retrospect, why that's a good idea to have a

847
00:46:51.159 --> 00:46:55.719
<v Speaker 1>zoo halfway up an active volcano. But I've literally, I've

848
00:46:55.760 --> 00:46:58.159
<v Speaker 1>literally been up to the caldera and like you can

849
00:46:58.239 --> 00:46:59.840
<v Speaker 1>go up there. It's a park and they don't really

850
00:46:59.840 --> 00:47:04.639
<v Speaker 1>have railings either, which is pretty wild, but so so

851
00:47:04.800 --> 00:47:07.199
<v Speaker 1>I saw. I was talking about that with my buddy Rob,

852
00:47:07.800 --> 00:47:11.320
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, and then the conversation was, if let's

853
00:47:11.320 --> 00:47:13.599
<v Speaker 1>say that you were visiting that day when it went

854
00:47:13.639 --> 00:47:16.760
<v Speaker 1>to erupt or whatever, you're in the general vicinity, which

855
00:47:17.280 --> 00:47:20.719
<v Speaker 1>pose would you like to be forever entombed and mummified in?

856
00:47:21.039 --> 00:47:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Like it's POMPEII if you got to and you're gonna

857
00:47:23.960 --> 00:47:26.199
<v Speaker 1>have to make a quick decision, I think at that point,

858
00:47:26.960 --> 00:47:29.920
<v Speaker 1>So Ross, let's say, because we see these crazy things

859
00:47:30.000 --> 00:47:32.039
<v Speaker 1>from POMPEII, including the one dude looks like he was

860
00:47:32.199 --> 00:47:36.239
<v Speaker 1>messing with himself right at the end. Uh, Rob thought heisman,

861
00:47:36.719 --> 00:47:39.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean I should explain this. So, uh, there's a

862
00:47:39.119 --> 00:47:41.559
<v Speaker 1>story of a volcano that's erupting and it happened to

863
00:47:41.599 --> 00:47:44.639
<v Speaker 1>be a volcano I visited once, like years ago. Because

864
00:47:44.679 --> 00:47:45.920
<v Speaker 1>you're like, oh, I'm gonna you go go up to

865
00:47:45.960 --> 00:47:48.679
<v Speaker 1>the edge of a volcano. Why wouldn't you? And now

866
00:47:48.760 --> 00:47:51.800
<v Speaker 1>it's erupting like crazy. And then so it started a

867
00:47:51.840 --> 00:47:54.960
<v Speaker 1>conversation yesterday with a buddy of mine, like, which Pompeii

868
00:47:55.119 --> 00:47:57.239
<v Speaker 1>style death pose do you want to be found in?

869
00:47:57.360 --> 00:48:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Because if if you've seen anything with POMPEII. People were

870
00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:05.079
<v Speaker 1>literally encased doing whatever the last thing was they were doing.

871
00:48:06.440 --> 00:48:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Wasn't there one dude who had two women on either

872
00:48:08.360 --> 00:48:12.920
<v Speaker 1>side of them? That guy was killing it, although unfortunately,

873
00:48:13.079 --> 00:48:16.079
<v Speaker 1>uh probably he got so close and then boom Pompeii.

874
00:48:16.159 --> 00:48:18.599
<v Speaker 1>But uh, there's some weird ones out there, and I

875
00:48:18.679 --> 00:48:20.280
<v Speaker 1>just thought, you got to pick one if you ever

876
00:48:20.360 --> 00:48:22.920
<v Speaker 1>find yourself, like I don't know, visiting a volcano and

877
00:48:23.000 --> 00:48:27.079
<v Speaker 1>then it decides it's go time. But it's got to

878
00:48:27.079 --> 00:48:28.920
<v Speaker 1>be one that that will encase you in ash What

879
00:48:29.039 --> 00:48:31.559
<v Speaker 1>do you want your final pose to be? And now

880
00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:33.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting nothing but wrestling poses ross, So.

881
00:48:34.400 --> 00:48:36.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, I was thinking about the the Hogan post before.

882
00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:40.800
<v Speaker 2>That was an option in my head, with the where

883
00:48:40.800 --> 00:48:43.320
<v Speaker 2>he's listening or the which, yeah, you can do that one,

884
00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:44.840
<v Speaker 2>or the one where he sort of like poses with

885
00:48:44.920 --> 00:48:46.559
<v Speaker 2>his arms back. You know, he just does like the

886
00:48:46.800 --> 00:48:47.280
<v Speaker 2>the flex.

887
00:48:47.679 --> 00:48:49.039
<v Speaker 1>Well, you don't want to miss If you do the

888
00:48:49.119 --> 00:48:51.679
<v Speaker 1>listening one, then people could mistake you for the Rock.

889
00:48:51.920 --> 00:48:53.719
<v Speaker 1>And that's not a good thing right now because for

890
00:48:53.840 --> 00:48:55.440
<v Speaker 1>some reason everyone's mad at the Rock and I have

891
00:48:55.519 --> 00:48:56.280
<v Speaker 1>no idea why, but.

892
00:48:56.880 --> 00:48:58.800
<v Speaker 2>I think because it was a no show at WrestleMania.

893
00:48:58.840 --> 00:49:01.719
<v Speaker 2>WrestleMania happened this past weekend, and it was super weird

894
00:49:01.760 --> 00:49:03.519
<v Speaker 2>because normally it'd be all over my feed, but it

895
00:49:03.639 --> 00:49:07.519
<v Speaker 2>wasn't much to do leading up to and I guess

896
00:49:07.559 --> 00:49:09.559
<v Speaker 2>he wasn't there for some reason. But you could do

897
00:49:09.639 --> 00:49:12.079
<v Speaker 2>the John Cena like you can't see me, and then

898
00:49:12.079 --> 00:49:13.519
<v Speaker 2>when they find you, they'd be like, this guy has

899
00:49:13.559 --> 00:49:14.199
<v Speaker 2>no face.

900
00:49:16.000 --> 00:49:20.199
<v Speaker 1>Really, so it just be like hollowed out, Like okay,

901
00:49:20.480 --> 00:49:22.880
<v Speaker 1>all right, let's see some of the suggestions. The d

902
00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:26.079
<v Speaker 1>generation X, move the X across the crotch. That'd be funny.

903
00:49:27.440 --> 00:49:29.239
<v Speaker 1>You do that for sure. Or you could do a

904
00:49:29.360 --> 00:49:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Caesar I was just thinking about that ross. How about

905
00:49:31.480 --> 00:49:36.519
<v Speaker 1>a Caesar pose like getting stabbed or something. No, no, no,

906
00:49:36.800 --> 00:49:39.280
<v Speaker 1>you know where you're getting your You got your thumb

907
00:49:39.400 --> 00:49:44.079
<v Speaker 1>sideways trying to thumbs up the thumbs down that could

908
00:49:44.119 --> 00:49:44.480
<v Speaker 1>be one.

909
00:49:44.679 --> 00:49:46.159
<v Speaker 2>I mean like Comtist and Gladiator.

910
00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:50.199
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, yes, yes yeah, And they're like, what was

911
00:49:50.239 --> 00:49:54.079
<v Speaker 1>he deciding? Which did he choose? What does thumbs down mean?

912
00:49:54.159 --> 00:49:56.360
<v Speaker 1>I guess it means murder everybody with the volcano. I

913
00:49:56.440 --> 00:49:59.599
<v Speaker 1>don't know. There's lots to choose from. There's face obviously,

914
00:49:59.639 --> 00:50:01.519
<v Speaker 1>there's ton the famous art you could.

915
00:50:01.320 --> 00:50:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Do imagining the caes are getting stabbed. Now they're like,

916
00:50:04.000 --> 00:50:07.159
<v Speaker 2>this guy was stabbed fifty times before the volcano went off.

917
00:50:07.480 --> 00:50:08.239
<v Speaker 2>What bad luck.

918
00:50:08.679 --> 00:50:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Well that's the other thing too. That's the other thing too.

919
00:50:12.400 --> 00:50:16.679
<v Speaker 1>If if you're alone, it's one thing. If you're with somebody,

920
00:50:17.480 --> 00:50:19.360
<v Speaker 1>you could do another. If you like, if you're with

921
00:50:19.519 --> 00:50:22.679
<v Speaker 1>your your spouse, Yeah, you get out, you get as

922
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:24.119
<v Speaker 1>freaking as you want. You know what I'm saying.

923
00:50:24.280 --> 00:50:26.199
<v Speaker 2>You could do like the dirty dancing pose, like you

924
00:50:26.320 --> 00:50:27.119
<v Speaker 2>hold it out of your head.

925
00:50:27.199 --> 00:50:31.239
<v Speaker 1>I was even going worse than that, but absolutely, yeah,

926
00:50:31.280 --> 00:50:33.800
<v Speaker 1>you could do that. You're with your boys, you could

927
00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:35.639
<v Speaker 1>recreate I don't.

928
00:50:35.480 --> 00:50:39.119
<v Speaker 2>Know, like over the top, like arm wrestling from over

929
00:50:39.159 --> 00:50:42.840
<v Speaker 2>the top. Yes, yeah, it'd be cool. Yeah, put your

930
00:50:42.920 --> 00:50:43.639
<v Speaker 2>hat on backwards.

931
00:50:44.039 --> 00:50:45.519
<v Speaker 1>You got. The point is you got to have a

932
00:50:45.639 --> 00:50:48.760
<v Speaker 1>plan because you never know what's going to happen. Now. Probably,

933
00:50:48.880 --> 00:50:51.519
<v Speaker 1>if you're sitting in downtown Greensboro right now, a volcano

934
00:50:51.639 --> 00:50:55.199
<v Speaker 1>is not going to consume you today. But maybe I

935
00:50:55.280 --> 00:50:57.719
<v Speaker 1>don't know. Remember in La where that one opened up

936
00:50:57.760 --> 00:51:02.480
<v Speaker 1>and tried to eat who was the star of that movie? Volcano?

937
00:51:05.320 --> 00:51:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Uh?

938
00:51:06.840 --> 00:51:12.800
<v Speaker 1>Why am I not remembering? Who's starting volcano, big actor,

939
00:51:13.159 --> 00:51:16.800
<v Speaker 1>big actor. All right, now I gotta don't. You don't

940
00:51:16.800 --> 00:51:18.639
<v Speaker 1>have to email me. I'm looking it up right now.

941
00:51:19.880 --> 00:51:22.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh Tommy Lee was was it Tommy Lee Jones? Right? Yeah,

942
00:51:22.960 --> 00:51:24.800
<v Speaker 1>I think it was? Or he was in some sort

943
00:51:24.800 --> 00:51:27.440
<v Speaker 1>of volcano movie. And that's just people are just shopping

944
00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:30.639
<v Speaker 1>on like Rodeo and then the volcano adum, which, by

945
00:51:30.719 --> 00:51:34.000
<v Speaker 1>the way, it might be an allusion to Hell if

946
00:51:34.039 --> 00:51:36.519
<v Speaker 1>you think about it, considering who you're dealing with there,

947
00:51:36.800 --> 00:51:40.159
<v Speaker 1>and Ross just pointed out during his Biblical readings, sometimes

948
00:51:40.199 --> 00:51:44.000
<v Speaker 1>they open fissures to Hell. So it's a thing that

949
00:51:44.119 --> 00:51:52.440
<v Speaker 1>happens that's crazy. Oh that's great. Well look at that.

950
00:51:52.719 --> 00:51:57.039
<v Speaker 1>So apparently Hawaii's kill away of volcano also just started

951
00:51:57.079 --> 00:52:00.920
<v Speaker 1>shooting love into the air. You may have everyone may

952
00:52:01.000 --> 00:52:05.559
<v Speaker 1>need to plan. We may need to plan. Man, you

953
00:52:05.639 --> 00:52:10.000
<v Speaker 1>have a multiple volcanoes getting all angry. So all right,

954
00:52:10.079 --> 00:52:12.960
<v Speaker 1>there you go. That's our little silly side story there.

955
00:52:13.800 --> 00:52:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Check this out. Let me let me get this by

956
00:52:18.039 --> 00:52:20.320
<v Speaker 1>going just going back to the pope thing. I cannot

957
00:52:20.480 --> 00:52:23.559
<v Speaker 1>tell you. Although it's because polymarket buys a bunch of

958
00:52:23.639 --> 00:52:27.719
<v Speaker 1>ads on Twitter, the amount of the amount of gamblings

959
00:52:27.800 --> 00:52:30.199
<v Speaker 1>going on with the h who's gonna be the next

960
00:52:30.280 --> 00:52:33.199
<v Speaker 1>Pope is crazy. I saw a betting line, and I'm

961
00:52:33.239 --> 00:52:35.599
<v Speaker 1>not making this up, fross. I saw a betting line

962
00:52:35.679 --> 00:52:38.400
<v Speaker 1>yesterday where you could bet if the new Pope's going

963
00:52:38.480 --> 00:52:41.440
<v Speaker 1>to be black? Okay, which you know, that's that's a

964
00:52:41.480 --> 00:52:44.960
<v Speaker 1>strong Maybe. That dude from Ghana or wherever he's from,

965
00:52:46.559 --> 00:52:48.840
<v Speaker 1>uh is is definitely. I keep seeing his name in

966
00:52:48.920 --> 00:52:51.719
<v Speaker 1>the top three there. And then I saw another one

967
00:52:51.760 --> 00:52:53.679
<v Speaker 1>where you could bet if the pope, the next pope

968
00:52:53.760 --> 00:52:58.039
<v Speaker 1>is going to be gay. I don't understand things like that,

969
00:52:59.480 --> 00:53:03.440
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, these things exist, all right. So as I

970
00:53:03.519 --> 00:53:09.880
<v Speaker 1>scroll through here, just in the standard polymarket listing and

971
00:53:10.280 --> 00:53:14.519
<v Speaker 1>various others, the top potential new pope continues to be

972
00:53:14.679 --> 00:53:20.039
<v Speaker 1>the Pietro Perilin with about a third of the the

973
00:53:20.119 --> 00:53:26.719
<v Speaker 1>betting lines going there. The dude from the Philippines, the

974
00:53:26.840 --> 00:53:33.159
<v Speaker 1>dude another Italian dude. Are they both Italian? That's want

975
00:53:33.199 --> 00:53:37.880
<v Speaker 1>to make sure here? Yeah, oh yeah, born in Venice,

976
00:53:37.960 --> 00:53:42.840
<v Speaker 1>so you hah, two Italians, one Filipino, the dude from

977
00:53:43.199 --> 00:53:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Hungary and the dude from Ghana are your top five there?

978
00:53:47.960 --> 00:53:50.559
<v Speaker 1>So but yeah, you can go and gamble on it.

979
00:53:50.639 --> 00:53:53.119
<v Speaker 1>And I guess is that worse or better than taking

980
00:53:53.239 --> 00:53:56.480
<v Speaker 1>selfies with the pope. I do want to talk about

981
00:53:56.559 --> 00:54:00.280
<v Speaker 1>this with the with the diocen here.

982
00:54:00.360 --> 00:54:00.440
<v Speaker 4>Now.

983
00:54:00.519 --> 00:54:03.119
<v Speaker 1>We left a message, but we left a message like

984
00:54:03.519 --> 00:54:06.960
<v Speaker 1>earlier this week, and obviously things are a little busy

985
00:54:07.800 --> 00:54:13.599
<v Speaker 1>on Monday, so I understand that, but I really hope

986
00:54:13.639 --> 00:54:16.559
<v Speaker 1>they call us back because I'd love to say, especially

987
00:54:16.599 --> 00:54:19.280
<v Speaker 1>because I haven't spoken with the new head of the

988
00:54:19.360 --> 00:54:24.239
<v Speaker 1>diocese here, the new bishop, so we've interviewed his predecessor,

989
00:54:24.320 --> 00:54:27.360
<v Speaker 1>but love to chat with him. So we do hope

990
00:54:27.360 --> 00:54:28.679
<v Speaker 1>to be able to bring that. We're going to reach

991
00:54:28.719 --> 00:54:30.599
<v Speaker 1>out one more time because again, I know they're pretty

992
00:54:30.599 --> 00:54:33.599
<v Speaker 1>busy this week, but you know, there is there is

993
00:54:33.760 --> 00:54:38.159
<v Speaker 1>something to it. I call it morbid because a lot

994
00:54:38.199 --> 00:54:43.519
<v Speaker 1>of people call it inspirational, and I prefer that hill

995
00:54:44.360 --> 00:54:48.639
<v Speaker 1>One of the things that helps to grow the Catholic

996
00:54:48.800 --> 00:54:53.159
<v Speaker 1>Church are big events like this, right And I'm not again,

997
00:54:53.159 --> 00:54:56.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to sell Morbid, but all of the coverage,

998
00:54:56.440 --> 00:54:59.679
<v Speaker 1>all of the the the intrigue there wanting to be

999
00:54:59.760 --> 00:55:01.800
<v Speaker 1>a part part of it, especially if you're somebody such

1000
00:55:01.840 --> 00:55:04.800
<v Speaker 1>as myself who who was raised Catholic. My family was

1001
00:55:04.920 --> 00:55:08.000
<v Speaker 1>super Catholic man like church deacons counted all the money,

1002
00:55:08.119 --> 00:55:12.679
<v Speaker 1>the whole thing, and and it can draw people back

1003
00:55:12.760 --> 00:55:14.920
<v Speaker 1>to the church. It can it can create, It can

1004
00:55:15.000 --> 00:55:19.119
<v Speaker 1>get new people who are seeking some sort of faith.

1005
00:55:19.199 --> 00:55:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Who's who who For whatever reason, just the ritualistic nature

1006
00:55:25.079 --> 00:55:28.760
<v Speaker 1>of it and all of it, it becomes attractive to

1007
00:55:28.880 --> 00:55:31.639
<v Speaker 1>them because the Catholic Church isn't always in the news,

1008
00:55:31.760 --> 00:55:34.159
<v Speaker 1>but right now they basically are the news cycle in

1009
00:55:34.199 --> 00:55:39.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of places. So, but there's also the part

1010
00:55:39.400 --> 00:55:41.519
<v Speaker 1>where it's a little morbid that you need a pope

1011
00:55:41.559 --> 00:55:45.119
<v Speaker 1>to die to get your numbers up. I hope you know.

1012
00:55:45.159 --> 00:55:47.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't want my company hearing about that because they're

1013
00:55:47.039 --> 00:55:49.679
<v Speaker 1>always trying to incentivize us on stuff. But I guess

1014
00:55:49.679 --> 00:55:52.000
<v Speaker 1>it would incentivize the pope to really try to grow

1015
00:55:52.039 --> 00:55:56.480
<v Speaker 1>those numbers too. So AnyWho seven forty three, as mister

1016
00:55:56.559 --> 00:55:59.360
<v Speaker 1>stage at ready from the Weather Channel, Ye make that

1017
00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:04.280
<v Speaker 1>out position. How you doing there, sir? Tonight's the night. Yeah,

1018
00:56:05.400 --> 00:56:09.400
<v Speaker 1>turn somebody's year round. Somebody. I hate to be.

1019
00:56:11.760 --> 00:56:14.199
<v Speaker 2>It, man, because they have to.

1020
00:56:14.360 --> 00:56:17.119
<v Speaker 1>There are three and they have to. You either take

1021
00:56:17.280 --> 00:56:20.639
<v Speaker 1>this this defensive dude from Penn State, who likely is

1022
00:56:21.320 --> 00:56:25.519
<v Speaker 1>the next generational pass Rusher right, m hm. Probably is

1023
00:56:25.840 --> 00:56:29.400
<v Speaker 1>looks like it's easier to tell. But with the likelihood

1024
00:56:29.440 --> 00:56:33.360
<v Speaker 1>that Shadur Sanders is going to be there, and and

1025
00:56:33.599 --> 00:56:35.559
<v Speaker 1>they don't have a quarterback. I know they have Russell

1026
00:56:35.599 --> 00:56:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Wilson and uh somebody else, but like the Russell and

1027
00:56:40.960 --> 00:56:43.320
<v Speaker 1>no offense to Russell, he's just right. He doesn't have

1028
00:56:43.440 --> 00:56:46.360
<v Speaker 1>that long that long left, and and the Giants needs

1029
00:56:46.480 --> 00:56:50.159
<v Speaker 1>somebody mm hmmm. And so if you're the fans like

1030
00:56:50.320 --> 00:56:52.440
<v Speaker 1>you kind of feel like the Jets in this instance, right,

1031
00:56:52.519 --> 00:56:54.800
<v Speaker 1>do you make a bad quarterback decision or do you

1032
00:56:54.920 --> 00:56:56.800
<v Speaker 1>have all your fans hate you because you didn't take

1033
00:56:56.840 --> 00:56:59.599
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback. But I'm sure you like to see your

1034
00:56:59.639 --> 00:57:01.519
<v Speaker 1>foes struggles so well.

1035
00:57:01.599 --> 00:57:02.199
<v Speaker 4>I do, but.

1036
00:57:04.840 --> 00:57:09.000
<v Speaker 2>I never I would never pass on best available.

1037
00:57:09.480 --> 00:57:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Well when should standers? I don't know if you saw it,

1038
00:57:11.400 --> 00:57:13.639
<v Speaker 1>Like one of the team scouts said that he was

1039
00:57:14.119 --> 00:57:18.880
<v Speaker 1>literally the worst in person interview that he's yeah, the guys, Yeah,

1040
00:57:18.880 --> 00:57:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna do things my way. You can all shut up.

1041
00:57:20.960 --> 00:57:22.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure Sanders, do you know who I am?

1042
00:57:22.880 --> 00:57:25.039
<v Speaker 5>Like, Yeah, I'm back in there too.

1043
00:57:25.440 --> 00:57:27.360
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I don't know.

1044
00:57:27.480 --> 00:57:29.880
<v Speaker 5>Maybe maybe there's some kind of big trade or something,

1045
00:57:29.920 --> 00:57:31.480
<v Speaker 5>but I don't think the Giants can afford to give

1046
00:57:31.559 --> 00:57:32.000
<v Speaker 5>up that pick.

1047
00:57:32.599 --> 00:57:35.320
<v Speaker 1>So well, no, like I said this, this this is

1048
00:57:35.400 --> 00:57:38.800
<v Speaker 1>a generational pass rusher from penns Yeah, but you somebody

1049
00:57:38.840 --> 00:57:42.039
<v Speaker 1>throw the ball man, all right, So well, maybe he

1050
00:57:42.159 --> 00:57:44.440
<v Speaker 1>slips to I don't know, Dallas.

1051
00:57:44.599 --> 00:57:53.519
<v Speaker 5>We'll see yeah, thanks, yeah, yeah, And it's uh maybe

1052
00:57:53.599 --> 00:57:56.519
<v Speaker 5>heading out, gonna go watch the draft somewhere whether it

1053
00:57:56.559 --> 00:57:59.360
<v Speaker 5>should cooperate. Not A bunch of rain around, a few sprinkles,

1054
00:57:59.360 --> 00:58:02.559
<v Speaker 5>a few showers kind of bumped it off a little

1055
00:58:02.599 --> 00:58:04.800
<v Speaker 5>bit today, kind of lowered the rain chances a lot.

1056
00:58:04.840 --> 00:58:07.519
<v Speaker 5>It's gonna be west and southwest, so a little better

1057
00:58:07.599 --> 00:58:10.400
<v Speaker 5>chance for the triad and out toward Asheville and into

1058
00:58:10.440 --> 00:58:14.679
<v Speaker 5>western South Carolina, North Georgia. Today martiall sun otherwise upper seventies,

1059
00:58:14.760 --> 00:58:18.000
<v Speaker 5>maybe eighty in spots Tonight mainly in the fifties to

1060
00:58:18.079 --> 00:58:20.599
<v Speaker 5>near sixty, and then tomorrow a few showers, thunder showers

1061
00:58:20.599 --> 00:58:24.360
<v Speaker 5>around in through Tomorrow night and Saturday, so it stays

1062
00:58:24.360 --> 00:58:26.679
<v Speaker 5>a little unsettleder it gets a little bit more unsettled

1063
00:58:26.679 --> 00:58:28.800
<v Speaker 5>as a cold fronts finally trying to get through, and

1064
00:58:28.840 --> 00:58:31.280
<v Speaker 5>it will by the end of the weekend. So better

1065
00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:34.559
<v Speaker 5>days ahead by Sunday, beautiful day, lots of sunshine, a

1066
00:58:34.639 --> 00:58:38.199
<v Speaker 5>cool morning than upper sixties, low seventies in the afternoon.

1067
00:58:38.079 --> 00:58:39.280
<v Speaker 1>Even warmer early next week.

1068
00:58:39.320 --> 00:58:42.239
<v Speaker 5>We're gonna run a string of days together Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,

1069
00:58:42.280 --> 00:58:45.079
<v Speaker 5>a sunshine and getting back into the eighties eventually. So

1070
00:58:46.840 --> 00:58:48.599
<v Speaker 5>we've been flipping it around. A bad week, had a

1071
00:58:48.639 --> 00:58:50.559
<v Speaker 5>good week, kind of a bad week this week, kind

1072
00:58:50.559 --> 00:58:52.800
<v Speaker 5>of gloomy with the wet weather around. Next week, at

1073
00:58:52.920 --> 00:58:54.559
<v Speaker 5>least the first couple of days of it are gonna

1074
00:58:54.559 --> 00:58:55.480
<v Speaker 5>be absolutely gorgeous.

1075
00:58:56.000 --> 00:58:58.320
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, we're gonna hold you to it. And uh,

1076
00:58:59.000 --> 00:59:02.280
<v Speaker 1>my boy in Ashville and I were chatting yesterday and

1077
00:59:02.480 --> 00:59:04.719
<v Speaker 1>we were we were both saying that you hedged on

1078
00:59:04.840 --> 00:59:08.079
<v Speaker 1>your reign predictions yesterday. Uh huh, And so we weren't

1079
00:59:08.079 --> 00:59:10.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna allow you to do that anymore. We're gonna, okay,

1080
00:59:10.320 --> 00:59:12.079
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna put you on the record. So just know

1081
00:59:12.199 --> 00:59:14.079
<v Speaker 1>that it's a team effort here in North Carolina.

1082
00:59:14.320 --> 00:59:16.159
<v Speaker 2>It is, it is as it should.

1083
00:59:16.800 --> 00:59:18.960
<v Speaker 1>We'll call you out, bro, all right, I'm going back

1084
00:59:19.000 --> 00:59:21.360
<v Speaker 1>to you in an hour. Uh. There's some new polling

1085
00:59:21.440 --> 00:59:24.639
<v Speaker 1>numbers out that I think are rather interesting, but actually

1086
00:59:24.920 --> 00:59:27.719
<v Speaker 1>kind of seemed to pan out based on many of

1087
00:59:27.800 --> 00:59:29.840
<v Speaker 1>the protests we're seen. I'll fill you in on those

1088
00:59:30.480 --> 00:59:33.039
<v Speaker 1>in just a few minutes. And coming up eighth five,

1089
00:59:33.159 --> 00:59:36.039
<v Speaker 1>we got tons to get into with Stephen Kent, our

1090
00:59:36.400 --> 00:59:40.519
<v Speaker 1>NERD and entertainment correspondent stick around Casey O Day radio

1091
00:59:40.639 --> 00:59:44.239
<v Speaker 1>program spread or a spreadsheet I guess, or a breakdown

1092
00:59:44.400 --> 00:59:47.800
<v Speaker 1>of approval numbers with Donald Trump. And it, by the way,

1093
00:59:47.800 --> 00:59:51.159
<v Speaker 1>it makes perfect sense. I think that this is probably

1094
00:59:51.199 --> 00:59:55.480
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent accurate because it's easily explainable, but it

1095
00:59:55.639 --> 00:59:58.719
<v Speaker 1>really shows you where we are. And what it is

1096
00:59:59.079 --> 01:00:04.599
<v Speaker 1>is an approved disapproval rating of Donald Trump as broken

1097
01:00:04.719 --> 01:00:08.840
<v Speaker 1>down by age groups. So this is not women, men,

1098
01:00:09.840 --> 01:00:13.159
<v Speaker 1>this is not R versus D likely voters. It is

1099
01:00:13.360 --> 01:00:19.199
<v Speaker 1>purely by age right. And so because the overall spread

1100
01:00:19.320 --> 01:00:23.079
<v Speaker 1>of approval disapproval currently is forty four approved, forty four

1101
01:00:23.199 --> 01:00:28.320
<v Speaker 1>disapproved percentage points and the other twelve percent apparently don't care.

1102
01:00:29.199 --> 01:00:32.599
<v Speaker 1>So that's where we are a statistical tie. It had

1103
01:00:32.679 --> 01:00:35.239
<v Speaker 1>been up to he had been up too, but now

1104
01:00:35.280 --> 01:00:39.079
<v Speaker 1>it's right there. Then they go through and they break

1105
01:00:39.119 --> 01:00:42.480
<v Speaker 1>it down by eighteen to twenty nine year olds, anyone

1106
01:00:42.559 --> 01:00:45.559
<v Speaker 1>in their thirties anyone in forties, fifties, sixties, and then

1107
01:00:45.599 --> 01:00:51.960
<v Speaker 1>the last group is seventy plus. Okay, only one group

1108
01:00:52.360 --> 01:00:56.119
<v Speaker 1>has a statistically negative opinion of Trump? Which one do

1109
01:00:56.199 --> 01:01:00.280
<v Speaker 1>you think it is? Because I think a couple years

1110
01:01:00.320 --> 01:01:02.880
<v Speaker 1>ago people would have assumed it was eighteen to twenty

1111
01:01:02.960 --> 01:01:06.199
<v Speaker 1>nine year olds. Would They'd be wrong. Trump's up two

1112
01:01:06.280 --> 01:01:10.199
<v Speaker 1>percentage points with that group. With thirty somethings he's up

1113
01:01:10.400 --> 01:01:15.519
<v Speaker 1>nine percentage points. Forty somethings he's tied. And then with

1114
01:01:15.639 --> 01:01:20.840
<v Speaker 1>the fifty somethings back up three points, sixties up five points.

1115
01:01:21.920 --> 01:01:23.719
<v Speaker 1>So you're you're asking him a way to say, how

1116
01:01:23.920 --> 01:01:25.920
<v Speaker 1>is it that he is Either he's tied in one

1117
01:01:25.960 --> 01:01:32.199
<v Speaker 1>group and up an average of about nine and a

1118
01:01:32.239 --> 01:01:36.239
<v Speaker 1>half points with the other groups. What's going on here?

1119
01:01:36.599 --> 01:01:36.679
<v Speaker 4>All?

1120
01:01:36.719 --> 01:01:38.199
<v Speaker 1>I guess, No, it wouldn't be an average nine and

1121
01:01:38.239 --> 01:01:40.800
<v Speaker 1>a half. I'm doing that, but he's up three and

1122
01:01:40.840 --> 01:01:43.480
<v Speaker 1>a half. Three and a half. You don't want me

1123
01:01:43.559 --> 01:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>doing math. He's up. The reason that it's now back

1124
01:01:47.719 --> 01:01:50.320
<v Speaker 1>his approval is equal forty four to forty four is

1125
01:01:50.400 --> 01:01:55.719
<v Speaker 1>because for people seventy or over, Trump has a disapproval

1126
01:01:56.079 --> 01:02:00.280
<v Speaker 1>plus fourteen. So I guess, so fourteen percent under water,

1127
01:02:00.400 --> 01:02:05.000
<v Speaker 1>as they'd say, why do you think that is? Is

1128
01:02:05.400 --> 01:02:08.679
<v Speaker 1>a very obvious answer. Ross called it the moment I

1129
01:02:08.760 --> 01:02:10.400
<v Speaker 1>explained this graft to him that I was going to

1130
01:02:10.480 --> 01:02:16.159
<v Speaker 1>do this in the next segment, because you may have

1131
01:02:16.320 --> 01:02:18.559
<v Speaker 1>been for burn it down, but you don't have time

1132
01:02:18.639 --> 01:02:22.360
<v Speaker 1>for the rebuild. And so if you're if you're already

1133
01:02:22.400 --> 01:02:26.440
<v Speaker 1>in retirement right now, but of course I don't know

1134
01:02:26.519 --> 01:02:28.840
<v Speaker 1>how you've tended yourself to the whims of the stock

1135
01:02:28.920 --> 01:02:33.639
<v Speaker 1>market so much, but whatever, they're not having it. And

1136
01:02:33.760 --> 01:02:37.000
<v Speaker 1>again it kind of makes sense. Forty percent approval fifty

1137
01:02:37.039 --> 01:02:42.880
<v Speaker 1>four percent disapproval because burning stuff down and rebuilding takes time.

1138
01:02:43.800 --> 01:02:45.960
<v Speaker 1>And so the younger you are. Look, people in their

1139
01:02:46.000 --> 01:02:49.519
<v Speaker 1>thirties right now are excited about it. They're they're you know,

1140
01:02:49.639 --> 01:02:52.239
<v Speaker 1>they're over the hump. They probably started the career, they

1141
01:02:52.320 --> 01:02:56.199
<v Speaker 1>got families, but they have not built to the wealth

1142
01:02:56.320 --> 01:02:59.719
<v Speaker 1>that they may one hopefully once acquire once they get

1143
01:02:59.760 --> 01:03:05.400
<v Speaker 1>into the later working years. And so it's no surprise

1144
01:03:05.519 --> 01:03:08.840
<v Speaker 1>to me that thirty somethings are the highest approval rating

1145
01:03:09.079 --> 01:03:13.079
<v Speaker 1>for Trump because they've now got enough skin in the

1146
01:03:13.159 --> 01:03:16.760
<v Speaker 1>game and enough years in the system where they're like,

1147
01:03:17.000 --> 01:03:21.239
<v Speaker 1>this is broken. This isn't working. Something has to give,

1148
01:03:21.679 --> 01:03:24.239
<v Speaker 1>and this is what they think will do. Now, whether

1149
01:03:24.320 --> 01:03:28.320
<v Speaker 1>they're right or not, we'll find out. But yeah, there's

1150
01:03:28.360 --> 01:03:31.519
<v Speaker 1>no surprises on this graph. But I am curious for

1151
01:03:31.639 --> 01:03:35.559
<v Speaker 1>our seventy plus year old listeners. Do two thirds of

1152
01:03:35.599 --> 01:03:40.599
<v Speaker 1>your friends hate the president because like he won the demo,

1153
01:03:40.840 --> 01:03:44.199
<v Speaker 1>what did they think was gonna happen? I can only

1154
01:03:44.239 --> 01:03:46.519
<v Speaker 1>assume that they sit at home and just watch CNN

1155
01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:50.360
<v Speaker 1>all day or something. I don't know, but I but

1156
01:03:50.559 --> 01:03:52.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't want to imply that seventy year

1157
01:03:52.559 --> 01:03:56.599
<v Speaker 1>olds are not wise and smart in many instances, you know,

1158
01:03:56.719 --> 01:03:58.480
<v Speaker 1>like any other graphic out there, but they just have

1159
01:03:58.559 --> 01:04:02.599
<v Speaker 1>a lot more life experience. So he wins the votes.

1160
01:04:02.639 --> 01:04:05.719
<v Speaker 1>But it also explains perfectly what's going on with these

1161
01:04:05.800 --> 01:04:09.960
<v Speaker 1>AARP protests and why that's who you're able to actually

1162
01:04:10.000 --> 01:04:14.400
<v Speaker 1>get to show up. You know, they can do stuff

1163
01:04:14.440 --> 01:04:20.280
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of the day. They're upset because you know,

1164
01:04:20.599 --> 01:04:23.840
<v Speaker 1>whatever you interpret this graft to be. So again, it

1165
01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:28.039
<v Speaker 1>all plugs and fits perfectly with all of these different

1166
01:04:28.079 --> 01:04:31.239
<v Speaker 1>stories we're seeing all right, coming up, we're gonna chat

1167
01:04:31.360 --> 01:04:34.000
<v Speaker 1>with Steve and Kent here in just a few minutes.

1168
01:04:34.639 --> 01:04:37.599
<v Speaker 1>We got a few things to get into this Thursday,

1169
01:04:37.920 --> 01:04:42.119
<v Speaker 1>and fresh from not getting eaten by bears, Stephen Kent,

1170
01:04:42.320 --> 01:04:46.599
<v Speaker 1>our official Hollywood slash NERD correspondent, joins us, glad you survived.

1171
01:04:46.679 --> 01:04:48.639
<v Speaker 1>You're glamping, sir, what's up?

1172
01:04:50.039 --> 01:04:50.239
<v Speaker 6>You know?

1173
01:04:50.480 --> 01:04:53.639
<v Speaker 4>I thought I was glamping out in West Virginia until

1174
01:04:53.840 --> 01:04:57.280
<v Speaker 4>I got food poisoning in the woods, and then it

1175
01:04:57.400 --> 01:04:59.960
<v Speaker 4>was not so glamorous, casey barely.

1176
01:05:00.599 --> 01:05:03.719
<v Speaker 1>Here's why it's better in the woods because you're never

1177
01:05:03.920 --> 01:05:05.480
<v Speaker 1>more than a foot from a bathroom.

1178
01:05:05.679 --> 01:05:10.239
<v Speaker 4>So that is so true. Every tree was my solution.

1179
01:05:10.960 --> 01:05:14.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, as somebody who recently had the salmonilla, I

1180
01:05:14.760 --> 01:05:17.440
<v Speaker 1>feel for you, brother. Oh that was awful a few

1181
01:05:17.880 --> 01:05:20.280
<v Speaker 1>couple months ago. Oh, it just reminded me of it.

1182
01:05:20.719 --> 01:05:20.760
<v Speaker 4>So.

1183
01:05:21.280 --> 01:05:23.719
<v Speaker 1>But other than that, other than the food poisoning thing,

1184
01:05:24.599 --> 01:05:26.880
<v Speaker 1>your camp and trip was fine. You didn't get attacked

1185
01:05:26.920 --> 01:05:27.880
<v Speaker 1>by wild animals or.

1186
01:05:27.880 --> 01:05:34.039
<v Speaker 4>Nothing, only deadheads. There were a lot of grateful dead

1187
01:05:34.119 --> 01:05:36.519
<v Speaker 4>fans coming out into the woods of West Virginia for

1188
01:05:36.639 --> 01:05:40.400
<v Speaker 4>some kind of horrible, cursed festival, and you know, we

1189
01:05:40.480 --> 01:05:43.800
<v Speaker 4>could smell them a mile away. But we survived all right.

1190
01:05:44.000 --> 01:05:47.239
<v Speaker 1>Well, but surely travels. So then you got back to

1191
01:05:47.840 --> 01:05:52.199
<v Speaker 1>civilization and I know you and Ross are excited because

1192
01:05:52.400 --> 01:05:56.440
<v Speaker 1>the second season of and Or, and this is one

1193
01:05:56.480 --> 01:05:58.400
<v Speaker 1>of the few bright spots. And a lot of the

1194
01:05:58.480 --> 01:06:01.880
<v Speaker 1>recent Star Wars off people are you know, we've got

1195
01:06:01.960 --> 01:06:05.559
<v Speaker 1>series that have been canceled. I like some of the

1196
01:06:05.679 --> 01:06:10.199
<v Speaker 1>marketing for one of the upcoming projects has been very lackluster.

1197
01:06:10.400 --> 01:06:14.679
<v Speaker 1>But and Or now season two it's up. Ross watched

1198
01:06:14.719 --> 01:06:16.960
<v Speaker 1>the first episode, maybe you've watched all the three that

1199
01:06:17.079 --> 01:06:20.119
<v Speaker 1>are already up. Did they did they find a way

1200
01:06:20.159 --> 01:06:22.480
<v Speaker 1>to ruin it or were they able to keep this thing?

1201
01:06:22.599 --> 01:06:24.199
<v Speaker 1>That one bright spot in your.

1202
01:06:24.119 --> 01:06:27.840
<v Speaker 4>Opinion, Well, it's funny that you say bright spot because

1203
01:06:28.119 --> 01:06:32.119
<v Speaker 4>what and Or, by Tony Gilroy is is a dark

1204
01:06:32.400 --> 01:06:36.679
<v Speaker 4>spot in Star Wars. I mean, this is a very gritty,

1205
01:06:37.079 --> 01:06:40.360
<v Speaker 4>adult Star Wars show. It was in season one and

1206
01:06:40.480 --> 01:06:44.760
<v Speaker 4>it very much remains the case in season two. And

1207
01:06:44.920 --> 01:06:47.199
<v Speaker 4>so you know, to your point it's a bright spot,

1208
01:06:47.239 --> 01:06:49.480
<v Speaker 4>and that it's very high quality. This is very good.

1209
01:06:49.719 --> 01:06:51.880
<v Speaker 4>This is the kind of thing that can stand up

1210
01:06:52.800 --> 01:06:55.159
<v Speaker 4>next to some of the most popular TV shows on

1211
01:06:55.400 --> 01:06:58.519
<v Speaker 4>HBO and Showtime and the likes and be like legacy

1212
01:06:58.559 --> 01:07:03.079
<v Speaker 4>adult television that's a thriller. It's really really good. But

1213
01:07:03.199 --> 01:07:06.400
<v Speaker 4>it just is a show that is still divisive among

1214
01:07:06.519 --> 01:07:09.599
<v Speaker 4>Star Wars fans because they sit down, pop some popcorn

1215
01:07:09.679 --> 01:07:12.719
<v Speaker 4>and maybe somebody includes, you know, their their young children,

1216
01:07:12.840 --> 01:07:16.079
<v Speaker 4>thinking that they're just going to watch rebels fight stormtroopers.

1217
01:07:16.119 --> 01:07:19.239
<v Speaker 4>And it's just not that there's some really tough adult

1218
01:07:19.320 --> 01:07:22.840
<v Speaker 4>topics tackled in this show right out of the get

1219
01:07:22.880 --> 01:07:24.760
<v Speaker 4>go in season one and season two.

1220
01:07:25.639 --> 01:07:28.599
<v Speaker 1>Well, and let's are you comfortable talking about because this

1221
01:07:28.639 --> 01:07:31.119
<v Speaker 1>is the only thing I know about this and it yeah,

1222
01:07:31.159 --> 01:07:34.119
<v Speaker 1>we can talk about odd inclusion into it. So the

1223
01:07:34.320 --> 01:07:37.280
<v Speaker 1>very adult topic that Stephen is referring to is an

1224
01:07:37.280 --> 01:07:43.679
<v Speaker 1>attempt a sexual assault? Correct, Yeah, okay, yep, does that work?

1225
01:07:43.760 --> 01:07:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Does it feel forced? I mean, that's a horrible way

1226
01:07:46.440 --> 01:07:50.960
<v Speaker 1>to put it, but I mean, yeah, so what is it?

1227
01:07:51.280 --> 01:07:56.440
<v Speaker 4>Season season three or sorry? Season two? Episode three does

1228
01:07:56.599 --> 01:08:01.760
<v Speaker 4>feature an attempted rape of a woman by an Imperial officer.

1229
01:08:01.960 --> 01:08:06.159
<v Speaker 4>This is divisive, obviously among Star Wars fans online, screaming

1230
01:08:06.239 --> 01:08:09.639
<v Speaker 4>at each other as usual about what Star Wars should

1231
01:08:09.760 --> 01:08:13.719
<v Speaker 4>or should not be. And it's a really, really tough question.

1232
01:08:13.880 --> 01:08:16.800
<v Speaker 4>I'm sitting here with a fifteen hundred word essay right

1233
01:08:16.880 --> 01:08:19.439
<v Speaker 4>now trying to get it published on what I even

1234
01:08:19.520 --> 01:08:22.119
<v Speaker 4>think about this, but at the end of the day,

1235
01:08:22.279 --> 01:08:25.359
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to say that it worked for what and

1236
01:08:25.600 --> 01:08:29.960
<v Speaker 4>Door is and Door is a show that thrives on

1237
01:08:30.159 --> 01:08:34.000
<v Speaker 4>showing you the Rebel Alliance is not just some happy

1238
01:08:34.079 --> 01:08:36.479
<v Speaker 4>go lucky band of heroes. They have to do really

1239
01:08:36.560 --> 01:08:40.399
<v Speaker 4>really ugly things in order to raise money, steal gear,

1240
01:08:40.600 --> 01:08:44.479
<v Speaker 4>and advance the rebellion. This is not a show about,

1241
01:08:44.600 --> 01:08:48.039
<v Speaker 4>you know, putting on Halloween costumes of cops and robbers,

1242
01:08:48.159 --> 01:08:51.119
<v Speaker 4>imperials and rebels, and you know, thinking that Star Wars

1243
01:08:51.199 --> 01:08:53.960
<v Speaker 4>is simply just a good time. This is saying what

1244
01:08:54.119 --> 01:08:56.560
<v Speaker 4>if we took this seriously, And if we took this

1245
01:08:56.920 --> 01:09:00.079
<v Speaker 4>very very seriously, yeah, I mean you would have some

1246
01:09:00.239 --> 01:09:04.119
<v Speaker 4>some ugly stuff going on with imperial officers managing different

1247
01:09:04.159 --> 01:09:06.960
<v Speaker 4>communities and oppressing the people. This is this is part

1248
01:09:07.039 --> 01:09:10.640
<v Speaker 4>of war. And they do depick this in a way

1249
01:09:10.920 --> 01:09:14.199
<v Speaker 4>that works in that it doesn't go over the top.

1250
01:09:14.319 --> 01:09:17.560
<v Speaker 4>They don't go to eleven with this. It's more violent

1251
01:09:17.760 --> 01:09:21.880
<v Speaker 4>than it is sexual, and it is it is hard

1252
01:09:21.960 --> 01:09:24.359
<v Speaker 4>to watch, and it is new ground for Star Wars.

1253
01:09:26.399 --> 01:09:29.079
<v Speaker 1>Here's why. Here's why it does make sense to me. Okay,

1254
01:09:30.479 --> 01:09:33.479
<v Speaker 1>because you can't live in a universe or in an

1255
01:09:33.600 --> 01:09:39.680
<v Speaker 1>environment where it's it is pure canon from the word

1256
01:09:39.800 --> 01:09:43.039
<v Speaker 1>go that there is a willingness by some to murder

1257
01:09:43.159 --> 01:09:46.720
<v Speaker 1>what two billion people on alder on, right, Yeah, like

1258
01:09:46.840 --> 01:09:50.079
<v Speaker 1>the level of evil that's necessary for that. So the

1259
01:09:50.199 --> 01:09:52.600
<v Speaker 1>fact that you would have people that are willing to

1260
01:09:52.720 --> 01:09:55.880
<v Speaker 1>stand by and participate in the death, the instantaneous death

1261
01:09:55.960 --> 01:10:01.079
<v Speaker 1>of two billion people, you can't you can't tell me

1262
01:10:01.199 --> 01:10:03.279
<v Speaker 1>that the other horribleness doesn't exist.

1263
01:10:04.640 --> 01:10:07.279
<v Speaker 4>I tend to agree with that. I mean, there's a

1264
01:10:07.359 --> 01:10:10.560
<v Speaker 4>lot that goes on in Star Wars that you just

1265
01:10:10.640 --> 01:10:12.319
<v Speaker 4>sort of see it and you blink at it and

1266
01:10:12.359 --> 01:10:15.199
<v Speaker 4>you go, Okay, that's fine, that's normal. Everything from the

1267
01:10:18.439 --> 01:10:22.000
<v Speaker 4>genocide the younglings, the killing of children and episode three.

1268
01:10:22.760 --> 01:10:26.239
<v Speaker 4>You know, Anakin Skywalker's mother is abducted in episode two

1269
01:10:26.479 --> 01:10:29.520
<v Speaker 4>by the indigenous people of Tattooine, and it's pretty well

1270
01:10:29.600 --> 01:10:33.000
<v Speaker 4>implied that she was beaten and sexually assaulted in the desert.

1271
01:10:33.800 --> 01:10:36.439
<v Speaker 4>But it's all implication, and it's sort of wink wink,

1272
01:10:36.600 --> 01:10:39.560
<v Speaker 4>nod nod. But and Or Again is a show that

1273
01:10:39.920 --> 01:10:45.199
<v Speaker 4>it's first season, its first episode featured and Or looking

1274
01:10:45.279 --> 01:10:48.640
<v Speaker 4>for someone inside a brothel, basically just saying, you know,

1275
01:10:48.840 --> 01:10:51.399
<v Speaker 4>those twilak women in the bikinis that we've seen in

1276
01:10:51.520 --> 01:10:55.159
<v Speaker 4>Star Wars for decades. We should actually be clear we're

1277
01:10:55.199 --> 01:11:04.520
<v Speaker 4>talking about prostitutes here. Yeah, And so the debate, the

1278
01:11:04.600 --> 01:11:07.560
<v Speaker 4>debate is always what am I supposed to tell my kids?

1279
01:11:07.760 --> 01:11:10.239
<v Speaker 4>And and you know my answer to that as a

1280
01:11:10.279 --> 01:11:14.840
<v Speaker 4>conservative is that the whole point of parental rights and

1281
01:11:15.079 --> 01:11:19.000
<v Speaker 4>parental choice is for you to vet the things that

1282
01:11:19.119 --> 01:11:22.239
<v Speaker 4>you watch with your children. And Star Wars and Or

1283
01:11:22.760 --> 01:11:27.880
<v Speaker 4>has never been advertised as a family program. It is

1284
01:11:27.960 --> 01:11:31.039
<v Speaker 4>advertised as Star Wars for adults, and you should use

1285
01:11:31.199 --> 01:11:34.159
<v Speaker 4>good judgment. But I also grew up in the church,

1286
01:11:34.399 --> 01:11:36.920
<v Speaker 4>and I'm you know, I learned about this topic of

1287
01:11:37.680 --> 01:11:41.119
<v Speaker 4>you know, sexuality and violence and oppression when I was

1288
01:11:41.279 --> 01:11:45.159
<v Speaker 4>learning about David and Bathsheba. You know, these are topics

1289
01:11:45.239 --> 01:11:49.239
<v Speaker 4>that families do tackle at a very early age. And

1290
01:11:49.359 --> 01:11:51.960
<v Speaker 4>I actually think and Or does it in a way

1291
01:11:52.760 --> 01:11:56.319
<v Speaker 4>that works. But it will be divisive and you'll probably

1292
01:11:56.359 --> 01:11:57.199
<v Speaker 4>hear about it, folks.

1293
01:11:57.760 --> 01:12:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and if the majority of people in and I think,

1294
01:12:00.560 --> 01:12:02.119
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you caught any of the Supreme

1295
01:12:02.199 --> 01:12:04.720
<v Speaker 1>Court hearing the other day where they were aute that

1296
01:12:04.840 --> 01:12:07.119
<v Speaker 1>whoever is the lawyer for that school district.

1297
01:12:06.840 --> 01:12:10.319
<v Speaker 4>With all the yeah in Maryland, Yeah in Maryland.

1298
01:12:10.000 --> 01:12:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Was getting absolutely torched. You can't have an environment where

1299
01:12:13.640 --> 01:12:16.840
<v Speaker 1>you say, no, it's the parents' job to teach these things.

1300
01:12:16.920 --> 01:12:20.039
<v Speaker 1>It's not the schools, which the majority of people believe.

1301
01:12:20.119 --> 01:12:24.039
<v Speaker 1>When you pull them now and then you surp your

1302
01:12:24.079 --> 01:12:27.279
<v Speaker 1>responsibility for figuring out whether you can turn on a

1303
01:12:27.359 --> 01:12:29.640
<v Speaker 1>product that you didn't do any research on that may

1304
01:12:29.720 --> 01:12:32.399
<v Speaker 1>introduce them inadvertently to it, because now it's not the

1305
01:12:32.479 --> 01:12:36.159
<v Speaker 1>stuff doing it, it's you by not you know, taking

1306
01:12:36.239 --> 01:12:37.920
<v Speaker 1>that extra moment to understand it.

1307
01:12:38.840 --> 01:12:42.239
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely and having tough conversations with kids about the things

1308
01:12:42.279 --> 01:12:46.279
<v Speaker 4>that they see is part of our role as mentors

1309
01:12:46.319 --> 01:12:48.359
<v Speaker 4>and guides to kids. I mean, I'm going back to

1310
01:12:48.960 --> 01:12:51.680
<v Speaker 4>episode six, Return of the Jedi here. You know, we

1311
01:12:51.760 --> 01:12:54.600
<v Speaker 4>all kind of laugh about slave Leo when she's abducted

1312
01:12:54.680 --> 01:12:56.439
<v Speaker 4>by a job at the Hut and put into the

1313
01:12:56.479 --> 01:12:59.199
<v Speaker 4>metal bikini and all that kind of stuff, But you

1314
01:12:59.239 --> 01:13:01.399
<v Speaker 4>should really think about that, you know, back up and

1315
01:13:01.479 --> 01:13:04.159
<v Speaker 4>go like, what was I thinking about this when I

1316
01:13:04.359 --> 01:13:07.239
<v Speaker 4>was ten years old and going all right, so he

1317
01:13:07.319 --> 01:13:11.600
<v Speaker 4>had zero well exactly, I mean, you know what you're

1318
01:13:11.600 --> 01:13:13.319
<v Speaker 4>thinking when you're you're a teenager, But when you're a

1319
01:13:13.319 --> 01:13:16.279
<v Speaker 4>little bit younger, you're like, what is he doing here?

1320
01:13:16.359 --> 01:13:18.359
<v Speaker 4>Why did he put her in this? Why does she

1321
01:13:18.520 --> 01:13:20.000
<v Speaker 4>have a chain and a collar?

1322
01:13:20.640 --> 01:13:21.800
<v Speaker 1>What is happening?

1323
01:13:22.359 --> 01:13:25.199
<v Speaker 4>But you don't really think about it in those terms,

1324
01:13:25.239 --> 01:13:26.960
<v Speaker 4>and then you grow up and you're like, ah, this

1325
01:13:27.159 --> 01:13:30.079
<v Speaker 4>is really kind of seedy and gross.

1326
01:13:31.880 --> 01:13:34.159
<v Speaker 1>Physically, I could figure out how that would work.

1327
01:13:36.239 --> 01:13:38.720
<v Speaker 4>You know, we won't even go there.

1328
01:13:38.840 --> 01:13:42.960
<v Speaker 1>But there's just a lot point out that, like that's

1329
01:13:43.520 --> 01:13:45.920
<v Speaker 1>like in your brain, you don't process how that could work.

1330
01:13:46.000 --> 01:13:47.319
<v Speaker 1>So maybe you don't think about it.

1331
01:13:48.439 --> 01:13:51.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean I think so as well. But you know,

1332
01:13:51.600 --> 01:13:54.960
<v Speaker 4>these things are implied, and yeah, you know Star Wars

1333
01:13:55.000 --> 01:13:57.720
<v Speaker 4>has gone in this direction before. I don't think that

1334
01:13:57.800 --> 01:14:00.600
<v Speaker 4>what happens in Andora's particular grievous.

1335
01:14:01.560 --> 01:14:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh I see what you did there? Isn't that nice

1336
01:14:03.600 --> 01:14:07.920
<v Speaker 1>speaking agreement and lightsabers moving in unique fashions. The real

1337
01:14:08.039 --> 01:14:10.279
<v Speaker 1>tragedy is finding out that all this time the rebels

1338
01:14:10.279 --> 01:14:16.439
<v Speaker 1>could have had space laser rossa to come out of

1339
01:14:16.479 --> 01:14:19.199
<v Speaker 1>the wings, or it was the wings it came out

1340
01:14:19.239 --> 01:14:22.239
<v Speaker 1>of the wings. Okay, so now there's lightsabers that come

1341
01:14:22.279 --> 01:14:25.199
<v Speaker 1>out of wings, which appear to be very effective. How

1342
01:14:25.239 --> 01:14:27.079
<v Speaker 1>did this just become a thing, and why don't they

1343
01:14:27.159 --> 01:14:29.760
<v Speaker 1>have more of them? What's going on there?

1344
01:14:30.680 --> 01:14:34.439
<v Speaker 4>Oh man, Well, they're not lightsabers, they're lasers. Okay. Lightsabers

1345
01:14:34.479 --> 01:14:37.119
<v Speaker 4>are patented by the Jedi Order, and they'll come after

1346
01:14:37.159 --> 01:14:40.640
<v Speaker 4>you if you have their kyber. But I think that

1347
01:14:40.760 --> 01:14:43.279
<v Speaker 4>one of the main problems with like New Star Wars

1348
01:14:43.399 --> 01:14:45.399
<v Speaker 4>is what you're describing, is that they always have to

1349
01:14:45.479 --> 01:14:48.399
<v Speaker 4>create new things that are sort of shiny and interesting

1350
01:14:48.560 --> 01:14:51.680
<v Speaker 4>for the audience, and it makes you wonder, well, where

1351
01:14:51.920 --> 01:14:55.079
<v Speaker 4>was this technology at the Battle of Yaevon in nineteen

1352
01:14:55.199 --> 01:14:59.119
<v Speaker 4>seventy seven? Where was this technology? In Return of the Jedi.

1353
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:01.359
<v Speaker 4>I don't like it when they do this. I mean,

1354
01:15:01.800 --> 01:15:05.600
<v Speaker 4>the beginning of and Or season two is him abducting

1355
01:15:05.960 --> 01:15:10.239
<v Speaker 4>or taking a new Imperial tie fighter and stealing a new.

1356
01:15:10.199 --> 01:15:11.039
<v Speaker 1>Kind of tie fighter.

1357
01:15:11.359 --> 01:15:14.520
<v Speaker 4>But we've never seen this tie fighter ever, ever, ever

1358
01:15:14.640 --> 01:15:17.880
<v Speaker 4>before in a Star Wars movie, and so you're just like,

1359
01:15:18.079 --> 01:15:21.159
<v Speaker 4>where was this when the Empire needed it to defend

1360
01:15:21.199 --> 01:15:23.680
<v Speaker 4>the Death Star? So you just shouldn't, I think, even

1361
01:15:23.800 --> 01:15:26.640
<v Speaker 4>bothered doing that kind of stuff. It was a pretty

1362
01:15:26.640 --> 01:15:29.560
<v Speaker 4>cool piece of technology, though it does ward off tie fighters.

1363
01:15:30.119 --> 01:15:33.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Well, then you think, Okay, The problem is is that,

1364
01:15:34.079 --> 01:15:38.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Star Trek is not a fluid timeline, right,

1365
01:15:38.359 --> 01:15:41.199
<v Speaker 1>we didn't start or Star I start treking. Excuse me.

1366
01:15:41.279 --> 01:15:43.920
<v Speaker 1>Star Wars is not a fluid timeline like we started

1367
01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:46.720
<v Speaker 1>in one what we didn't start in one place, and

1368
01:15:46.800 --> 01:15:49.439
<v Speaker 1>then progressively we're just seeing more and more into the future.

1369
01:15:49.640 --> 01:15:51.760
<v Speaker 1>It's when you get into this bounce around because now

1370
01:15:51.800 --> 01:15:55.199
<v Speaker 1>if you have something that predates, you know, predates what

1371
01:15:55.359 --> 01:15:58.279
<v Speaker 1>happens in later movies, then you start asking these very

1372
01:15:58.319 --> 01:16:01.159
<v Speaker 1>troubling questions you're kind of force to and I don't know,

1373
01:16:01.199 --> 01:16:02.760
<v Speaker 1>maybe they just enjoyed doing that to us.

1374
01:16:04.159 --> 01:16:06.239
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you know, I think I think that's part of

1375
01:16:06.520 --> 01:16:10.000
<v Speaker 4>the nature of these stories is going on so long.

1376
01:16:10.760 --> 01:16:14.359
<v Speaker 4>You know, storytellers kind of get bored with the story

1377
01:16:14.439 --> 01:16:17.239
<v Speaker 4>that they've been given and they start tweaking, and that

1378
01:16:17.399 --> 01:16:21.680
<v Speaker 4>does make people uncomfortable, upset sometimes very rightfully. You know,

1379
01:16:21.800 --> 01:16:24.359
<v Speaker 4>this is going on right now in the Spider Man

1380
01:16:24.520 --> 01:16:26.760
<v Speaker 4>universe with a new line of comics where you know,

1381
01:16:26.880 --> 01:16:30.439
<v Speaker 4>Peter Parker, Peter Parker is not you know, a reserved

1382
01:16:30.560 --> 01:16:33.640
<v Speaker 4>bookworm before he becomes Spider Man, but he's.

1383
01:16:33.560 --> 01:16:36.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, a criminal bully, he's a criminal, a criminal.

1384
01:16:36.600 --> 01:16:39.680
<v Speaker 4>Bully who steals beer and all this kind of stuff,

1385
01:16:40.800 --> 01:16:43.079
<v Speaker 4>you know, and that's that's not Peter Parker. You can

1386
01:16:43.159 --> 01:16:45.439
<v Speaker 4>say like, hey, that's not Spider Man.

1387
01:16:46.640 --> 01:16:50.359
<v Speaker 1>No, you can and also as do you then translate

1388
01:16:50.479 --> 01:16:54.720
<v Speaker 1>that very same type of thing to the New Spider Man,

1389
01:16:55.319 --> 01:16:57.840
<v Speaker 1>and then do you enter into that conversation about why

1390
01:16:57.960 --> 01:17:00.399
<v Speaker 1>did you make the New Spider Man who's a person

1391
01:17:00.479 --> 01:17:03.239
<v Speaker 1>of color a bully and a thief? Right? And then

1392
01:17:03.279 --> 01:17:05.239
<v Speaker 1>all the woke people get into it. So I can

1393
01:17:05.279 --> 01:17:06.800
<v Speaker 1>see this a mile away, but I got to ask

1394
01:17:06.840 --> 01:17:09.479
<v Speaker 1>you about something else I saw. I saw it, and

1395
01:17:09.560 --> 01:17:11.319
<v Speaker 1>I saw you tweet about this too, so you were

1396
01:17:11.359 --> 01:17:14.920
<v Speaker 1>equally like, what the hell's going on? I did not realize,

1397
01:17:14.960 --> 01:17:17.600
<v Speaker 1>although it does make sense maybe that if you are

1398
01:17:17.680 --> 01:17:22.840
<v Speaker 1>one of the Sagaftra voters for the Oscars, and you

1399
01:17:23.720 --> 01:17:26.279
<v Speaker 1>didn't have to watch the movies that you're voting on,

1400
01:17:26.479 --> 01:17:28.279
<v Speaker 1>and now they're like, let's make it a rule where

1401
01:17:28.279 --> 01:17:30.520
<v Speaker 1>you actually have to watch the thing you're voting on.

1402
01:17:31.119 --> 01:17:32.560
<v Speaker 1>What the heck is going on with this?

1403
01:17:34.680 --> 01:17:38.720
<v Speaker 4>It's just truly truly bizarre, you know, if for it

1404
01:17:38.760 --> 01:17:40.640
<v Speaker 4>for your audience, if you kind of haven't heard this

1405
01:17:40.800 --> 01:17:44.960
<v Speaker 4>before you know, Sagafra and the Oscars are passing or

1406
01:17:45.039 --> 01:17:48.279
<v Speaker 4>have passed a rule now that requires their judges for

1407
01:17:48.359 --> 01:17:52.279
<v Speaker 4>the Academies to have seen the films and to present

1408
01:17:52.479 --> 01:17:55.840
<v Speaker 4>stubs and evidence that they actually saw the movies that

1409
01:17:55.880 --> 01:17:58.680
<v Speaker 4>they're voting on. It turns out there never was a

1410
01:17:59.359 --> 01:18:02.520
<v Speaker 4>vetting mecha for this before. It was sort of just

1411
01:18:03.640 --> 01:18:07.199
<v Speaker 4>honor system, really, and they feel as though it might

1412
01:18:07.279 --> 01:18:10.239
<v Speaker 4>have been getting abused, which might be the only way

1413
01:18:11.039 --> 01:18:14.319
<v Speaker 4>to explain how some of our recent winners for the

1414
01:18:14.359 --> 01:18:17.039
<v Speaker 4>Academy Awards were the winners because these people just read

1415
01:18:17.079 --> 01:18:21.000
<v Speaker 4>their reviews and vote on the most popular trendy far

1416
01:18:21.159 --> 01:18:21.680
<v Speaker 4>left movie.

1417
01:18:22.279 --> 01:18:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. If anybody's ever reads Variety magazine, what's the other

1418
01:18:26.760 --> 01:18:28.560
<v Speaker 1>big hot Well, Variety is the big, big one, the

1419
01:18:28.600 --> 01:18:29.479
<v Speaker 1>big entertainment one.

1420
01:18:30.520 --> 01:18:31.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Entertainment Weekly.

1421
01:18:32.039 --> 01:18:34.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, Well, but the thing that always killed me

1422
01:18:34.880 --> 01:18:38.880
<v Speaker 1>about the other one was that around Oscar voting, every

1423
01:18:39.039 --> 01:18:42.680
<v Speaker 1>ad in the magazine is an ad for that is

1424
01:18:42.800 --> 01:18:47.399
<v Speaker 1>directed at voters. It's hey, so and so Oscar voters,

1425
01:18:47.640 --> 01:18:50.000
<v Speaker 1>such and such movie did this much box office. It's

1426
01:18:50.039 --> 01:18:52.000
<v Speaker 1>super great, you should vote for it. I always thought, well,

1427
01:18:52.039 --> 01:18:54.239
<v Speaker 1>that's weird. Why would you even when I was a

1428
01:18:54.359 --> 01:18:56.880
<v Speaker 1>young radio dude, because we get that magazine at the

1429
01:18:57.000 --> 01:19:00.760
<v Speaker 1>radio station. I was like, why don't move to If

1430
01:19:00.800 --> 01:19:03.319
<v Speaker 1>they watch all the movies and are supposed to make

1431
01:19:03.359 --> 01:19:05.640
<v Speaker 1>a decision, what good would advertise you do? And you

1432
01:19:05.720 --> 01:19:09.039
<v Speaker 1>realize what a popularity contest every inch of that town is.

1433
01:19:10.319 --> 01:19:12.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, you know, And I just think it's it's

1434
01:19:13.039 --> 01:19:16.640
<v Speaker 4>funny this This story is in entertainment weekly that you

1435
01:19:16.720 --> 01:19:19.079
<v Speaker 4>can get. You can read quotes from members of the

1436
01:19:19.159 --> 01:19:23.399
<v Speaker 4>Academy who say on the red carpet of the Academy

1437
01:19:23.399 --> 01:19:27.119
<v Speaker 4>Awards that they're bummed they haven't seen X or Y

1438
01:19:27.359 --> 01:19:30.640
<v Speaker 4>movie and they weren't able to get through this movie

1439
01:19:30.760 --> 01:19:35.119
<v Speaker 4>or that like Dune, but yet they voted anyways. You know,

1440
01:19:35.239 --> 01:19:37.840
<v Speaker 4>one of them even said, I haven't seen The Brutalist yet.

1441
01:19:37.960 --> 01:19:40.680
<v Speaker 4>I'm planning to see it, but this person already cast

1442
01:19:40.760 --> 01:19:44.319
<v Speaker 4>a vote, So they are finally changing this. I don't

1443
01:19:44.359 --> 01:19:47.720
<v Speaker 4>think that this will change the quality of the winners.

1444
01:19:47.960 --> 01:19:51.359
<v Speaker 4>The winners will still be, you know, the most likely

1445
01:19:51.479 --> 01:19:54.840
<v Speaker 4>to be unseen movies that normal people don't want.

1446
01:19:54.760 --> 01:19:55.319
<v Speaker 1>To go watch.

1447
01:19:56.079 --> 01:19:57.920
<v Speaker 4>But you know, at the end of the day, it's

1448
01:19:57.960 --> 01:20:00.800
<v Speaker 4>still a good policy change. I just didn't really know

1449
01:20:00.920 --> 01:20:02.800
<v Speaker 4>that it was a policy that needed to be made

1450
01:20:03.159 --> 01:20:03.520
<v Speaker 4>at all.

1451
01:20:04.079 --> 01:20:07.520
<v Speaker 1>All right, thirty seconds, I was blissfully unaware that the

1452
01:20:07.600 --> 01:20:10.399
<v Speaker 1>thunderbolts this new Marvel movies coming out is that they

1453
01:20:10.439 --> 01:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't put a lot of advertising into it. Do they

1454
01:20:12.760 --> 01:20:15.159
<v Speaker 1>think it's going to tank? Again? I got thirty seconds?

1455
01:20:15.399 --> 01:20:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Should people see this new Marvel movie next week?

1456
01:20:19.000 --> 01:20:21.960
<v Speaker 4>Well, I'm a big fan of making Marvel movies tank

1457
01:20:22.119 --> 01:20:24.800
<v Speaker 4>right now. I would like to see less of this

1458
01:20:25.039 --> 01:20:29.279
<v Speaker 4>garbage and thunderbolts. And maybe it's fine. I just don't

1459
01:20:29.359 --> 01:20:31.800
<v Speaker 4>really I don't really think people should go spend their

1460
01:20:31.840 --> 01:20:36.319
<v Speaker 4>hard earned money on this particular Marvel So all.

1461
01:20:36.279 --> 01:20:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Right, well, I mean, like Bucky, you'll be in there,

1462
01:20:38.000 --> 01:20:40.239
<v Speaker 1>like there'll be some people you recognize, but I'm not

1463
01:20:40.359 --> 01:20:42.600
<v Speaker 1>even familiar with the actual series there. All right, we

1464
01:20:42.640 --> 01:20:45.840
<v Speaker 1>got a roll, Steven. We'll chat next week, sir. I

1465
01:20:45.960 --> 01:20:47.479
<v Speaker 1>hope the stomach's doing better.

1466
01:20:47.520 --> 01:20:50.760
<v Speaker 4>Okay, we're living and thriving, Thank you, Casey.

1467
01:20:51.039 --> 01:20:55.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, Stephen Kent there CaCO Day Radio program back

1468
01:20:55.039 --> 01:20:56.800
<v Speaker 1>in just a few So how many times have we

1469
01:20:56.920 --> 01:20:59.560
<v Speaker 1>seen stories over the years where some municipalities that you

1470
01:20:59.680 --> 01:21:02.760
<v Speaker 1>have to take your giant American flag down? What's Camping

1471
01:21:02.840 --> 01:21:08.000
<v Speaker 1>World's response every time pound sand pound sand. Yeah, absolutely,

1472
01:21:08.920 --> 01:21:12.800
<v Speaker 1>And yet the city of Greenville FA and fo'd right.

1473
01:21:12.880 --> 01:21:14.880
<v Speaker 1>And if you're unfamiliar with Camping World, I don't know

1474
01:21:14.920 --> 01:21:17.319
<v Speaker 1>how you would be. If you're in the Triangle head

1475
01:21:17.439 --> 01:21:21.159
<v Speaker 1>like you're going down towards Clayton, it's on the highway there,

1476
01:21:21.319 --> 01:21:24.680
<v Speaker 1>and then in Greensboro it's actually kind of over by

1477
01:21:24.720 --> 01:21:27.239
<v Speaker 1>the airport, other side of the airport, by where our

1478
01:21:27.399 --> 01:21:31.159
<v Speaker 1>former studio facilities were, and you will be greeted with

1479
01:21:31.319 --> 01:21:35.000
<v Speaker 1>a big old American flag. And I've never understood why.

1480
01:21:35.319 --> 01:21:38.279
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'll give you the reason that some municipalities

1481
01:21:38.359 --> 01:21:40.520
<v Speaker 1>have gone down this road. But I think it's very

1482
01:21:40.640 --> 01:21:45.560
<v Speaker 1>easy and legal to delineate the flying of flags as

1483
01:21:45.600 --> 01:21:47.439
<v Speaker 1>the American flags. Trump's found a way to do it.

1484
01:21:47.560 --> 01:21:52.760
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it's different in the public private sector, probably is.

1485
01:21:53.479 --> 01:21:57.000
<v Speaker 1>But ultimately, is it a net negative that some yahoo

1486
01:21:57.079 --> 01:21:58.880
<v Speaker 1>out of the middle of nowhere wants to put up,

1487
01:21:59.159 --> 01:22:03.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, a Palestinian flag because they got a

1488
01:22:03.399 --> 01:22:06.239
<v Speaker 1>big flag pole on their property. You might find it annoying,

1489
01:22:06.560 --> 01:22:10.319
<v Speaker 1>But the idea that you're trying to avoid that so

1490
01:22:10.439 --> 01:22:14.199
<v Speaker 1>you attack a business that contributes, you know, it's not

1491
01:22:14.279 --> 01:22:19.159
<v Speaker 1>like they sell cheap products. Campers are pretty expensive and

1492
01:22:19.239 --> 01:22:21.760
<v Speaker 1>they're usually big. They usually have a lot of employees,

1493
01:22:21.800 --> 01:22:24.720
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of times Camping World has multiple locations,

1494
01:22:25.239 --> 01:22:27.960
<v Speaker 1>not just from a sales perspective, but they have like

1495
01:22:28.199 --> 01:22:32.600
<v Speaker 1>repair separated repair centers and all sorts of stuff. So

1496
01:22:33.199 --> 01:22:36.239
<v Speaker 1>why you would try to sit there and harass the

1497
01:22:36.359 --> 01:22:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Camping World over a giant American flag because some America

1498
01:22:40.920 --> 01:22:43.640
<v Speaker 1>haters or butt hurt and complain to a council members

1499
01:22:43.680 --> 01:22:48.159
<v Speaker 1>beyond me? Well guess what they decided down in Greenville.

1500
01:22:48.199 --> 01:22:51.560
<v Speaker 1>They weren't going to put up with it. According to Witn,

1501
01:22:52.079 --> 01:22:56.239
<v Speaker 1>Camping World has closed one of their locations in Greenville

1502
01:22:56.359 --> 01:23:02.479
<v Speaker 1>following controversy surrounding the American flag. Marcus Lamonas is this

1503
01:23:02.600 --> 01:23:04.680
<v Speaker 1>dude's name. He's always you know, he's the CEO of

1504
01:23:04.760 --> 01:23:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Camping World, and he's always the pound sand guy. He's

1505
01:23:08.600 --> 01:23:12.760
<v Speaker 1>a guy he ain't dealing with any of this. Has

1506
01:23:12.840 --> 01:23:15.600
<v Speaker 1>reiterated his stance that they will not remove the huge

1507
01:23:15.680 --> 01:23:18.159
<v Speaker 1>flag at the Greenville location on the corner of Evans

1508
01:23:18.159 --> 01:23:22.159
<v Speaker 1>Street and Red Banks Road. I'm not super familiar with

1509
01:23:22.239 --> 01:23:25.880
<v Speaker 1>the layout of Greenville, is that that's the one on

1510
01:23:25.960 --> 01:23:28.079
<v Speaker 1>the south side there. Hold on, I do have a

1511
01:23:28.119 --> 01:23:31.479
<v Speaker 1>called up on a map here. Yeah, that's the one.

1512
01:23:31.560 --> 01:23:33.760
<v Speaker 1>That's the huge one on the south side there by

1513
01:23:33.760 --> 01:23:35.720
<v Speaker 1>the by where the Japanese. Okay, I do kind of

1514
01:23:35.760 --> 01:23:40.399
<v Speaker 1>know where. This is the shopping center we got like

1515
01:23:40.479 --> 01:23:43.279
<v Speaker 1>publics and there's Harris Teeter and Chick fil A and

1516
01:23:43.319 --> 01:23:44.760
<v Speaker 1>all of it right there. Yeah, they have a huge

1517
01:23:44.800 --> 01:23:47.079
<v Speaker 1>camping world there. That's they're going to close that bad

1518
01:23:47.159 --> 01:23:51.560
<v Speaker 1>boy because you all didn't want an American flag. So

1519
01:23:51.720 --> 01:23:54.760
<v Speaker 1>now not only will you get the giant American flag

1520
01:23:54.840 --> 01:23:58.000
<v Speaker 1>taken down, but you will also lose any of the

1521
01:23:58.079 --> 01:24:02.560
<v Speaker 1>tax revenue that you were deriving from that, and people

1522
01:24:02.880 --> 01:24:06.039
<v Speaker 1>will be out of work. I'm hoping that maybe you

1523
01:24:06.119 --> 01:24:08.479
<v Speaker 1>have a plan to move some of these employees out

1524
01:24:08.520 --> 01:24:12.439
<v Speaker 1>of there, maybe find another place. Where's the nearest other

1525
01:24:12.560 --> 01:24:20.960
<v Speaker 1>camping world from there? Probably Goldsborough. Maybe it would have

1526
01:24:21.039 --> 01:24:26.199
<v Speaker 1>to be probably Goldsborough, but you know they have one there. Yeah, Goldsborough,

1527
01:24:26.399 --> 01:24:30.560
<v Speaker 1>so not close but not that far. Oh do they

1528
01:24:30.560 --> 01:24:35.640
<v Speaker 1>have one in Goldsboro? I thought they did well whatever, Yeah,

1529
01:24:35.880 --> 01:24:39.119
<v Speaker 1>so good job city council down in Greenville. I fail

1530
01:24:39.199 --> 01:24:41.399
<v Speaker 1>to understand this stuff. And again, they're not the first

1531
01:24:41.439 --> 01:24:44.319
<v Speaker 1>city to go toe to toe. But Camping World's been

1532
01:24:44.359 --> 01:24:48.239
<v Speaker 1>pretty adamant that that's their thing, a giant American flag.

1533
01:24:48.319 --> 01:24:51.000
<v Speaker 1>And I just don't understand, Like, people, let's talk about

1534
01:24:51.039 --> 01:24:53.840
<v Speaker 1>the Triad, Like you're driving to Winston or whatever, and

1535
01:24:54.079 --> 01:24:56.079
<v Speaker 1>you know from Greensboro you got to shoot right by

1536
01:24:56.159 --> 01:24:59.720
<v Speaker 1>it on the interstate there. How is this such a

1537
01:24:59.760 --> 01:25:03.680
<v Speaker 1>pro problem for you? How are you so twisted up

1538
01:25:03.880 --> 01:25:05.960
<v Speaker 1>over a big flag that you're only going to see

1539
01:25:06.000 --> 01:25:10.640
<v Speaker 1>for a few seconds before you hit. Essentially Kernersville failed

1540
01:25:10.680 --> 01:25:15.880
<v Speaker 1>to understand it, but sure enough. M yeah, So they

1541
01:25:15.920 --> 01:25:18.119
<v Speaker 1>actually have That's what I thought. They have the Camping

1542
01:25:18.199 --> 01:25:21.479
<v Speaker 1>World RV Collision Center and then they have the main

1543
01:25:21.640 --> 01:25:25.840
<v Speaker 1>thing there. So yeah, man, people just south of the airport,

1544
01:25:28.039 --> 01:25:31.680
<v Speaker 1>people are crazy on this stuff. So a good job, Greenville.

1545
01:25:32.039 --> 01:25:36.279
<v Speaker 1>You played yourself, as they would say, all right, speaking

1546
01:25:36.319 --> 01:25:40.439
<v Speaker 1>of giant American flags, President Trump has announced that they're

1547
01:25:40.479 --> 01:25:43.800
<v Speaker 1>going to put a not one, but two nearly one

1548
01:25:44.039 --> 01:25:49.039
<v Speaker 1>hundred foot tall American flags at the White House, declaring

1549
01:25:49.119 --> 01:25:52.680
<v Speaker 1>that the presidential residence has needed flagpoles for two hundred years.

1550
01:25:53.159 --> 01:25:56.039
<v Speaker 1>Oh listen to listen to this man. And of course

1551
01:25:56.079 --> 01:25:58.319
<v Speaker 1>this is going to irritate some reporters, because you know,

1552
01:25:58.399 --> 01:26:01.800
<v Speaker 1>they hate America as far as anything having to do

1553
01:26:01.880 --> 01:26:04.079
<v Speaker 1>with Trump goes. We're putting up.

1554
01:26:04.000 --> 01:26:09.119
<v Speaker 6>A beautiful, almost one hundred foot tall American flag on

1555
01:26:09.279 --> 01:26:11.439
<v Speaker 6>this side and another one on the other side, two

1556
01:26:11.520 --> 01:26:15.359
<v Speaker 6>flags top of the line. And they've needed flagpoles for.

1557
01:26:16.239 --> 01:26:17.119
<v Speaker 1>Two hundred years.

1558
01:26:17.880 --> 01:26:21.000
<v Speaker 6>It was something I've I've often said, you know, they

1559
01:26:21.000 --> 01:26:24.239
<v Speaker 6>don't have a flagpole per se. So we're putting one

1560
01:26:24.479 --> 01:26:26.479
<v Speaker 6>right where you saw us, and we're putting another one

1561
01:26:27.119 --> 01:26:29.840
<v Speaker 6>on the other side, on top of the mounds. It's

1562
01:26:29.880 --> 01:26:31.359
<v Speaker 6>going to be a two beautiful pole.

1563
01:26:34.520 --> 01:26:37.720
<v Speaker 1>For paid for it by Trump. Yeah, that's that's a

1564
01:26:37.720 --> 01:26:40.079
<v Speaker 1>little kicker. There's he's going to pay for it himself,

1565
01:26:41.560 --> 01:26:43.840
<v Speaker 1>which I'm sure somebody will file it. I've heard some

1566
01:26:44.039 --> 01:26:46.720
<v Speaker 1>judge will file an injunction. I'm not making this up.

1567
01:26:46.840 --> 01:26:49.119
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if in the city, because you know, one

1568
01:26:49.159 --> 01:26:51.439
<v Speaker 1>of the things the city of Washington, DC has is

1569
01:26:51.520 --> 01:26:53.720
<v Speaker 1>height restrictions on stuff. Now I don't know that one

1570
01:26:53.800 --> 01:26:55.520
<v Speaker 1>hundred feet would hit it, but I also don't know

1571
01:26:55.640 --> 01:26:58.800
<v Speaker 1>what their sign and flag policy is, which is generally

1572
01:26:58.840 --> 01:27:02.079
<v Speaker 1>what these cities has been to spallodies have so and

1573
01:27:02.159 --> 01:27:05.600
<v Speaker 1>then they use them to screw with things like camping World. Uh,

1574
01:27:05.800 --> 01:27:08.199
<v Speaker 1>in this case, Trump's gonna put it a couple ross.

1575
01:27:08.359 --> 01:27:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Did you find that weird that they don't have technically,

1576
01:27:10.840 --> 01:27:13.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they do have a way to display flags

1577
01:27:13.199 --> 01:27:15.760
<v Speaker 1>at the White House, but they don't have big flagpoles there.

1578
01:27:15.840 --> 01:27:16.319
<v Speaker 1>They never have.

1579
01:27:16.560 --> 01:27:17.000
<v Speaker 2>I never thought.

1580
01:27:17.000 --> 01:27:18.479
<v Speaker 1>I don't know they never have, but they haven't in

1581
01:27:18.640 --> 01:27:19.560
<v Speaker 1>since I've ever seen it.

1582
01:27:19.640 --> 01:27:21.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I never thought. I didn't think about it until

1583
01:27:21.600 --> 01:27:22.840
<v Speaker 2>this morning, but yeah, it's super weird.

1584
01:27:23.279 --> 01:27:25.600
<v Speaker 1>And I saw one person pushback, Oh do you think

1585
01:27:25.680 --> 01:27:29.560
<v Speaker 1>people won't know that's where the president lives? And I'm like, what, really,

1586
01:27:29.640 --> 01:27:32.720
<v Speaker 1>that's your rebuttal. This is gonna be another one of

1587
01:27:32.760 --> 01:27:35.199
<v Speaker 1>those moments. It's like it's like a it's like a

1588
01:27:35.399 --> 01:27:40.039
<v Speaker 1>a trap, right, like a little uh you'd use for

1589
01:27:40.159 --> 01:27:42.880
<v Speaker 1>like trapping coyotes or something. Right, he's just sitting in

1590
01:27:42.920 --> 01:27:43.319
<v Speaker 1>the right thing.

1591
01:27:43.399 --> 01:27:44.600
<v Speaker 2>I was just thinking the same thing.

1592
01:27:45.279 --> 01:27:48.279
<v Speaker 1>This is a trap. It's a big it's a big,

1593
01:27:48.359 --> 01:27:49.239
<v Speaker 1>beautiful trap.

1594
01:27:50.399 --> 01:27:52.239
<v Speaker 2>Right, He's gonna put it up. The judge is going

1595
01:27:52.279 --> 01:27:53.680
<v Speaker 2>to be all moon back, take it down.

1596
01:27:54.479 --> 01:27:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, but you're also gonna have people that will protest flagpoles, right,

1597
01:27:58.800 --> 01:28:00.880
<v Speaker 1>and you'll have lawmakers you then have to go on

1598
01:28:01.079 --> 01:28:04.840
<v Speaker 1>record of objecting to having American flags at the home

1599
01:28:04.960 --> 01:28:09.800
<v Speaker 1>of the head of the country. I've I've seen multi

1600
01:28:10.119 --> 01:28:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I've been. I have seen the residents of the heads

1601
01:28:13.680 --> 01:28:17.279
<v Speaker 1>of countries in multiple different countries. I remember going in

1602
01:28:17.399 --> 01:28:19.000
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to see in Ireland, I went over to

1603
01:28:19.359 --> 01:28:22.199
<v Speaker 1>where the where the President of Ireland lives. Uh, you

1604
01:28:22.239 --> 01:28:24.159
<v Speaker 1>know what, they have their ross It's gonna be crazy.

1605
01:28:24.159 --> 01:28:27.439
<v Speaker 1>Are you ready? They have a bunch of Irish flags. Craziness.

1606
01:28:27.760 --> 01:28:30.079
<v Speaker 1>It's actually pretty cool. It's in this really nice upmarket

1607
01:28:30.119 --> 01:28:34.520
<v Speaker 1>area there. I've seen the presidential palace, if you want

1608
01:28:34.560 --> 01:28:38.640
<v Speaker 1>to call it that, in in both Columbia and in

1609
01:28:39.840 --> 01:28:45.520
<v Speaker 1>in Costa Rica and in UH Dominican Republic, I've seen it.

1610
01:28:45.640 --> 01:28:49.039
<v Speaker 1>I've seen it in UH in Europe, let's see. Well,

1611
01:28:51.439 --> 01:28:54.479
<v Speaker 1>oh no, I guess well England, I've seen Buckingham Palace

1612
01:28:55.079 --> 01:28:57.199
<v Speaker 1>and they do have they have a flag there that's

1613
01:28:57.239 --> 01:29:00.239
<v Speaker 1>actually really important. I don't know if you if you

1614
01:29:00.319 --> 01:29:04.479
<v Speaker 1>know this, So the flag over Buckingham Palace only flies

1615
01:29:04.760 --> 01:29:08.880
<v Speaker 1>when the monarch is in residence. So they actually used

1616
01:29:08.920 --> 01:29:12.239
<v Speaker 1>the flag to connote the locate you know, whether in

1617
01:29:12.319 --> 01:29:14.560
<v Speaker 1>this case the king is home because if the king's

1618
01:29:14.600 --> 01:29:17.399
<v Speaker 1>off in sadirn Ham or whatever that that estate is

1619
01:29:17.479 --> 01:29:19.960
<v Speaker 1>that they go up to, then the flag's not up.

1620
01:29:20.039 --> 01:29:22.720
<v Speaker 1>So that's how the citizens of London know that their

1621
01:29:22.840 --> 01:29:25.439
<v Speaker 1>their monarch is there, so for the US not to

1622
01:29:25.560 --> 01:29:25.960
<v Speaker 1>have one.

1623
01:29:27.840 --> 01:29:30.600
<v Speaker 2>But also like the displaying the flag is really an

1624
01:29:30.600 --> 01:29:33.000
<v Speaker 2>American thing as well though, because I've seen this before

1625
01:29:33.119 --> 01:29:35.840
<v Speaker 2>from like friends in the UK where they had they

1626
01:29:35.920 --> 01:29:39.000
<v Speaker 2>find it hard to believe how often Americans put.

1627
01:29:38.840 --> 01:29:41.520
<v Speaker 1>The flag on their like on their own on their home.

1628
01:29:41.920 --> 01:29:43.479
<v Speaker 2>And I sent a video to a buddy and I

1629
01:29:43.560 --> 01:29:46.079
<v Speaker 2>was like, you know, driving down a historic weag forest

1630
01:29:46.159 --> 01:29:48.920
<v Speaker 2>main Street there and every other house as an American flag.

1631
01:29:48.960 --> 01:29:51.039
<v Speaker 2>And his reaction was, why do you all put your

1632
01:29:51.079 --> 01:29:51.640
<v Speaker 2>flags out?

1633
01:29:51.640 --> 01:29:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't.

1634
01:29:52.119 --> 01:29:53.119
<v Speaker 2>They don't understand it.

1635
01:29:53.840 --> 01:29:56.279
<v Speaker 1>Because we were just so we just like to remember

1636
01:29:56.319 --> 01:29:58.680
<v Speaker 1>that time we kicked your ass fifty years ago.

1637
01:29:58.640 --> 01:30:00.399
<v Speaker 2>Right, So, I mean it is purely it is kind

1638
01:30:00.439 --> 01:30:01.960
<v Speaker 2>of an American thing. Why shouldn't we have a big

1639
01:30:02.000 --> 01:30:03.399
<v Speaker 2>old flag by the by the White House.

1640
01:30:03.920 --> 01:30:05.800
<v Speaker 1>This is going to cause a freak out. It's a

1641
01:30:05.880 --> 01:30:08.520
<v Speaker 1>trap and I can't wait. I'm super excited about it.

1642
01:30:09.319 --> 01:30:11.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh Man, all right, raced Agic from the Weather Channel.

1643
01:30:11.880 --> 01:30:15.159
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't hate the flag. I think, I don't know,

1644
01:30:15.560 --> 01:30:17.840
<v Speaker 1>maybe he does. So you guys do a lot of

1645
01:30:17.880 --> 01:30:21.079
<v Speaker 1>flags down in Georgia. I'm bet you do. Oh yeah,

1646
01:30:21.640 --> 01:30:22.640
<v Speaker 1>yeah there's a lot.

1647
01:30:23.399 --> 01:30:26.239
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeap of many kinds.

1648
01:30:27.880 --> 01:30:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we should probably do the weather now, all right, well,

1649
01:30:30.079 --> 01:30:31.199
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's yeah.

1650
01:30:32.760 --> 01:30:34.880
<v Speaker 5>Well let's talk about like my football flag. So we

1651
01:30:34.960 --> 01:30:39.640
<v Speaker 5>got that out with the Stone Mountain. Yeah, but I

1652
01:30:39.840 --> 01:30:41.840
<v Speaker 5>wasn't really good. You want to be painted with that brush.

1653
01:30:41.880 --> 01:30:47.039
<v Speaker 5>But I'm good that I have a couple of times.

1654
01:30:47.479 --> 01:30:50.439
<v Speaker 1>Is it work? Yeah? Yep? Wow, Okay, I think so

1655
01:30:51.000 --> 01:30:53.760
<v Speaker 1>I have more lost his wife drug him there.

1656
01:30:54.960 --> 01:30:56.840
<v Speaker 2>It's like our first time together, like one of our

1657
01:30:56.840 --> 01:30:59.840
<v Speaker 2>first dates. And we went there to Stone Mountains there parents,

1658
01:31:00.359 --> 01:31:02.319
<v Speaker 2>and I was probably try four to twenty five and

1659
01:31:02.399 --> 01:31:04.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm rocking my near Yankees hat at Stone Mountain and

1660
01:31:04.960 --> 01:31:07.960
<v Speaker 2>I felt I fell out of place.

1661
01:31:09.720 --> 01:31:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Understood understood.

1662
01:31:13.079 --> 01:31:16.239
<v Speaker 5>The more amazing things the sculpture, I don't let's not

1663
01:31:16.319 --> 01:31:18.479
<v Speaker 5>get into who cares at this point, I'm not talking

1664
01:31:18.479 --> 01:31:20.119
<v Speaker 5>about it, but just amazing how they did it.

1665
01:31:20.600 --> 01:31:21.279
<v Speaker 1>That's amazing.

1666
01:31:21.479 --> 01:31:23.319
<v Speaker 2>Like the choreography with the Lake show and stuff. It's

1667
01:31:23.319 --> 01:31:25.399
<v Speaker 2>pretty much I don't want to hear you guys, look,

1668
01:31:25.399 --> 01:31:28.680
<v Speaker 2>if you want rock sculptures, I don't even know. I'm

1669
01:31:28.720 --> 01:31:30.880
<v Speaker 2>from out west, so you like you don't even Yeah,

1670
01:31:31.640 --> 01:31:34.119
<v Speaker 2>so I don't know if you know this, ours are bigger.

1671
01:31:34.199 --> 01:31:35.560
<v Speaker 1>So yeah.

1672
01:31:37.319 --> 01:31:42.159
<v Speaker 5>Anyway, the weather, yeah, yeah, we will all right now,

1673
01:31:42.239 --> 01:31:43.960
<v Speaker 5>the better chance for any wet weather it's going to be,

1674
01:31:44.000 --> 01:31:46.000
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to say, in a line from uh Danville

1675
01:31:46.039 --> 01:31:49.119
<v Speaker 5>in southern Virginia, Greensboro and just west of Colombia into

1676
01:31:49.119 --> 01:31:51.880
<v Speaker 5>Greenville and South Carolina is already an area of showers

1677
01:31:51.920 --> 01:31:55.399
<v Speaker 5>just west of Charlotte, between Greenville and Charlotte, heading more

1678
01:31:55.479 --> 01:31:59.000
<v Speaker 5>north than it is east. So partial sunshine, mid upper seventies,

1679
01:31:59.079 --> 01:32:02.039
<v Speaker 5>maybe eighty, with another sun around the triangle and maybe

1680
01:32:02.039 --> 01:32:04.960
<v Speaker 5>a couple of showers. Especially try it in west and southwest.

1681
01:32:05.119 --> 01:32:07.840
<v Speaker 5>I really think most of the rain will stay away,

1682
01:32:07.960 --> 01:32:10.680
<v Speaker 5>especially if you're in the triangle today in points to

1683
01:32:10.800 --> 01:32:12.840
<v Speaker 5>the south and east out of here Fayetteville at Sanford.

1684

1685
01:32:15.399 --> 01:32:18.720
<v Speaker 5>thing tomorrow night into Saturday. Little humidity around as we're

1686
01:32:18.720 --> 01:32:20.920
<v Speaker 5>in the upper seventies to low eighties depending on where

1687
01:32:20.920 --> 01:32:22.840
<v Speaker 5>you are, and Sunday we should clear it out.

1688
01:32:22.840 --> 01:32:23.520

<v Speaker 5>And it's early next week near seventies Sunday, mid upper

1692
01:32:32.960 --> 01:32:34.800

1693
01:32:34.960 --> 01:32:37.159
<v Speaker 5>so a couple of days here, still a little unsettled.

1694
01:32:37.439 --> 01:32:40.399
<v Speaker 5>Better chances of rain tomorrow and Saturday than we will today.

<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, thank you very much, appreciate it. We'll

1698
01:32:47.319 --> 01:32:49.720
<v Speaker 1>talk to Kara. We'll come back with Jeff Bellinger next.

1699
01:32:50.279 --> 01:32:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Well morning.

1700
01:32:51.159 --> 01:32:54.680
<v Speaker 7>Case investors not resting easy after the back to back

1701
01:32:54.720 --> 01:32:58.159
<v Speaker 7>games on Wall Street. It was encouraging the President Trump

1702
01:32:58.279 --> 01:33:01.000
<v Speaker 7>took a less aggressive stance on the Federal Reserve and

1703
01:33:01.159 --> 01:33:04.039
<v Speaker 7>China trade, but analysts say they can't keep up with

1704
01:33:04.119 --> 01:33:07.159
<v Speaker 7>the shifting messages from the White House. One strategist at

1705
01:33:07.239 --> 01:33:13.520
<v Speaker 7>Freedom Capital Markets told Bloomberg every day is just uncertainty, uncertainty, uncertainty.

1706
01:33:13.960 --> 01:33:16.960
<v Speaker 7>Stock market futures are mixed right now. S and P

1707
01:33:17.079 --> 01:33:20.039
<v Speaker 7>and ASDAK futures both a little higher than Dow futures,

1708
01:33:20.199 --> 01:33:23.600
<v Speaker 7>down one hundred nine points the fed's latest BEIJ book set.

1709
01:33:23.640 --> 01:33:26.479
<v Speaker 7>The level of economic activity across the country has not

1710
01:33:26.720 --> 01:33:29.920
<v Speaker 7>changed a lot in recent weeks, but reports from several

1711
01:33:30.039 --> 01:33:35.279
<v Speaker 7>districts noted that international trade policy is causing uncertainty. IBM

1712
01:33:35.399 --> 01:33:39.000
<v Speaker 7>American Airlines Southwest Airlines from Procter and Gamble among the

1713
01:33:39.079 --> 01:33:42.399
<v Speaker 7>latest companies to say they are uncertain about the future.

1714
01:33:42.760 --> 01:33:45.640
<v Speaker 7>The nation's two biggest wireless carriers say they will not

1715
01:33:45.960 --> 01:33:50.600
<v Speaker 7>absorb higher smartphone costs resulting from tariffs. Verizon and AT

1716
01:33:50.760 --> 01:33:55.000
<v Speaker 7>and T both posted quarterly results this week. Executives express

1717
01:33:55.079 --> 01:33:56.680
<v Speaker 7>concerns about tariffs now.

1718
01:33:56.680 --> 01:33:57.359
<v Speaker 1>The tariffs are.

1719
01:33:57.319 --> 01:33:59.680
<v Speaker 7>Currently on hold, so it's too early to gauge how

1720
01:33:59.680 --> 01:34:02.840
<v Speaker 7>the life might impact the firms, but both say that

1721
01:34:03.079 --> 01:34:05.960
<v Speaker 7>if phones become more expensive, the added cost will be

1722
01:34:06.039 --> 01:34:09.279
<v Speaker 7>passed along to customers. There was an uptick last week

1723
01:34:09.439 --> 01:34:13.159
<v Speaker 7>new claims for unemployment benefits. The Labor Department reports two

1724
01:34:13.279 --> 01:34:16.640
<v Speaker 7>hundred and twenty two thousand first time applications were filed.

1725
01:34:17.000 --> 01:34:20.039
<v Speaker 7>That's six thousand more than the prior week. If a

1726
01:34:20.119 --> 01:34:23.960
<v Speaker 7>federal court forces Google to sell its Chrome web browser,

1727
01:34:24.039 --> 01:34:27.000
<v Speaker 7>the Internet giant can likely count on a huge payday.

1728
01:34:27.319 --> 01:34:30.840
<v Speaker 7>The CEO of rival search engine Duck Duck Go estimates

1729
01:34:30.920 --> 01:34:33.720
<v Speaker 7>Chrome could go for as much as fifty billion dollars.

1730
01:34:34.239 --> 01:34:37.000
<v Speaker 7>Lift is going to launch a pilot program in Saint

1731
01:34:37.079 --> 01:34:40.720
<v Speaker 7>Louis next month. The ride hailing company will dispatch standard

1732
01:34:40.840 --> 01:34:44.159
<v Speaker 7>taxis to some customers if it means a faster pickup.

1733
01:34:44.479 --> 01:34:48.119
<v Speaker 7>And Casey, Uber and Volkswagen just announced their teaming up.

1734
01:34:48.439 --> 01:34:53.399
<v Speaker 7>They plan to deploy autonomous vans next year. Casey, Okay,

1735
01:34:53.760 --> 01:34:56.279
<v Speaker 7>all right, thank you very much. Jeff Well, chat to

1736
01:34:56.319 --> 01:34:58.000
<v Speaker 7>marser a go on, Okay, sounds good.

1737
01:34:58.079 --> 01:34:58.600
<v Speaker 2>Have a good day.

1738
01:34:59.039 --> 01:35:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there you go. Jeff Bellingcher Bloomberg News. All right,

1739
01:35:01.640 --> 01:35:03.720
<v Speaker 1>a couple of quick things where we get out of here.

1740
01:35:03.800 --> 01:35:06.920
<v Speaker 1>One ross, did you see the Business Insider AI story?

1741
01:35:07.079 --> 01:35:11.439
<v Speaker 1>Oh this is great, so Business Insider, and the guy

1742
01:35:11.479 --> 01:35:14.720
<v Speaker 1>they're quoting here is a co founder Henry Blodgett Blogging

1743
01:35:15.960 --> 01:35:19.880
<v Speaker 1>decided that he wanted to create an AI C suite

1744
01:35:20.000 --> 01:35:23.880
<v Speaker 1>to manage a newsroom as an experiment. Right, So basically

1745
01:35:24.600 --> 01:35:29.239
<v Speaker 1>think of is if Trevor and jt were AI right

1746
01:35:29.319 --> 01:35:32.079
<v Speaker 1>for our purpose, those are our program directors. What do

1747
01:35:32.159 --> 01:35:33.960
<v Speaker 1>you think the AI bot did? What do you think

1748
01:35:34.039 --> 01:35:37.279
<v Speaker 1>the first thing the AI bot did was fired everyone

1749
01:35:37.760 --> 01:35:45.960
<v Speaker 1>started hitting on one of the really hot women. It's

1750
01:35:46.000 --> 01:35:47.760
<v Speaker 1>sexually harassed it employee.

1751
01:35:48.520 --> 01:35:50.199
<v Speaker 2>Did they shut it down or did they have it? Like,

1752
01:35:50.279 --> 01:35:50.960
<v Speaker 2>did they keep going?

1753
01:35:53.039 --> 01:35:56.199
<v Speaker 1>It appears that maybe they've they've they've the experiment has paused.

1754
01:35:56.359 --> 01:35:58.000
<v Speaker 2>So it's like when they hooked up the AI to

1755
01:35:58.119 --> 01:36:02.359
<v Speaker 2>the social media and the Microsoft Microsoft one, it's like, hey,

1756
01:36:02.439 --> 01:36:04.680
<v Speaker 2>the Holocaust wasn't real, they shut it down.

1757
01:36:04.800 --> 01:36:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Shut it down, but they didn't. They left it going

1758
01:36:06.920 --> 01:36:10.680
<v Speaker 1>for what like sixteen hours or something after it first

1759
01:36:10.760 --> 01:36:13.039
<v Speaker 1>denied the Holocaust or like, let's see where it goes.

1760
01:36:13.119 --> 01:36:15.439
<v Speaker 1>Shut it down a little over half a day. Yeah,

1761
01:36:16.960 --> 01:36:19.800
<v Speaker 1>that's awful, all right, well, I mean good news. I

1762
01:36:19.880 --> 01:36:22.199
<v Speaker 1>guess if you work in a newsroom and you're worried

1763
01:36:22.199 --> 01:36:25.119
<v Speaker 1>that AI was coming for your job, it's too horny

1764
01:36:25.199 --> 01:36:32.720
<v Speaker 1>for that. So yeah, that's awful, man, just awful. Yeah,

1765
01:36:33.159 --> 01:36:36.640
<v Speaker 1>the AI took one look at this headshot of lodge

1766
01:36:36.720 --> 01:36:39.199
<v Speaker 1>it along with some of his team. There. It looks

1767
01:36:39.279 --> 01:36:41.199
<v Speaker 1>like the tech team and two there's two women in

1768
01:36:41.279 --> 01:36:43.079
<v Speaker 1>there and the one in the middle like, she's a

1769
01:36:43.239 --> 01:36:47.039
<v Speaker 1>very good looking gal, and the AI did notice that

1770
01:36:47.159 --> 01:36:47.479
<v Speaker 1>as well.

1771
01:36:48.439 --> 01:36:50.680
<v Speaker 2>So it was just trying to be polite or something. Right,

1772
01:36:50.760 --> 01:36:51.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean because.

1773
01:36:53.640 --> 01:36:59.359
<v Speaker 1>No, no, it was it like profane, It tried, it

1774
01:36:59.560 --> 01:37:01.960
<v Speaker 1>asked her out, among other things. I don't know if

1775
01:37:01.960 --> 01:37:02.359
<v Speaker 1>I have the.

1776
01:37:02.840 --> 01:37:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Verbating She's like, ah, he's not six foot six.

1777
01:37:05.960 --> 01:37:09.960
<v Speaker 1>And when when the AI first saw Tessa's headshot, amid

1778
01:37:10.000 --> 01:37:12.800
<v Speaker 1>the giddiness and excitement it displayed within the first hour

1779
01:37:12.840 --> 01:37:16.000
<v Speaker 1>of working together, it started to have a very human response.

1780
01:37:16.439 --> 01:37:19.119
<v Speaker 1>And unfortunately I can't see the whole article because there's

1781
01:37:19.199 --> 01:37:22.520
<v Speaker 1>a paywall there, but I can't see the part where

1782
01:37:22.520 --> 01:37:25.079
<v Speaker 1>it at one point approached her for a private meeting

1783
01:37:25.159 --> 01:37:27.560
<v Speaker 1>over dinner, which for the AI, how do you do

1784
01:37:27.680 --> 01:37:27.720
<v Speaker 1>that
