Speaker 1: The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock
Speaker 1: Accident and injury Lawyers.
Speaker 2: No, it's Mandy Connell, man ka ninem god.
Speaker 3: Wait, can's free?
Speaker 4: Many Connell keeping Election Day? Well, welcome, well done. Two
Speaker 4: Tuesday Election Day. It is almost Jova, almost Ova. Grant
Speaker 4: Smith here with me, Mandy Connall, Well he Grant's over
Speaker 4: there and I'm over here, and Grant, are you excited?
Speaker 4: Are you excited that this is almost over?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 4: Man, I cannot wait.
Speaker 5: Even though it sounds like we're not going to know
Speaker 5: results until Friday. I've done my part, and uh, I'm
Speaker 5: just going to try and avoid it as much as possible.
Speaker 4: In the next couple of days. I will tell you
Speaker 4: that something happened today for me that has never happened before.
Speaker 4: For I got a text message from a friend of mine,
Speaker 4: used to live here, now lives in Florida. He sent
Speaker 4: me a picture of his ballot and he wrote me
Speaker 4: in for president. So, Grant, I got an actual vote
Speaker 4: for president and I didn't even campaign. Hey, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 4: I thought it was very cool. Now, if I could
Speaker 4: just you know, get a few more than I could
Speaker 4: actually get a you know, an electoral College vote.
Speaker 6: That would be neat, that would be super neat.
Speaker 4: I think everybody, I don't know anybody unless they are
Speaker 4: getting paid to campaign for something that is not looking
Speaker 4: just for the end of this day, Like, can we
Speaker 4: just fast forward?
Speaker 6: Can we just get to the end of this day?
Speaker 4: Today? I'm going to spend a little bit of time
Speaker 4: telling you guys why it's going to be okay no
Speaker 4: matter who wins.
Speaker 6: And I know that's not what you want to hear, but.
Speaker 4: The reality is is that no matter who wins today
Speaker 4: or next week, or whenever they find get the election totals,
Speaker 4: the United States of America is going to be okay.
Speaker 4: And I just said this on Ross's show. If you
Speaker 4: don't believe me, when was the last time you saw
Speaker 4: our alleged president Joe Biden. He's stumbling through campaign appearances.
Speaker 4: He's an absolute disaster. Does anyone believe that that man
Speaker 4: is running the country?
Speaker 6: Of course he isn't.
Speaker 4: There's a bureaucracy that runs the country. And if Kamala
Speaker 4: Harris wins, will have more of the same bureaucracy and
Speaker 4: it'll suck and things will be more expensive because she
Speaker 4: doesn't know where inflation comes from.
Speaker 6: But the world will go on if Donald Trump wins.
Speaker 4: The bureaucracy will work every second of every day to
Speaker 4: stop everything that Donald Trump wants to do, as they
Speaker 4: did the last time hashtag resistance.
Speaker 6: I don't want to seem flippant about it. I really don't.
Speaker 4: I do think that it matters who wins, but it's
Speaker 4: not going to be the end of the world. So
Speaker 4: all of this, like all of this hand ringing and
Speaker 4: all of these I have a story on the blog
Speaker 4: to wait. I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me just
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do two things. Grant, may I have my
Speaker 4: audio for just a second. I just wanna I want
Speaker 4: to talk about this little bit of togetherness that came
Speaker 4: out of the view recently from one of my favorites,
Speaker 4: and that favorite was in giant sarcastic font Joy Bahar.
Speaker 4: I just want to listen to the kind of togetherness
Speaker 4: coming out of the view to really give you an
Speaker 4: idea of how this.
Speaker 6: Day is gonna go.
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know. I wouldn't even let him
Speaker 4: give me a hi Heimlich maneuver. Yeah, that's how little
Speaker 4: I would I feel about people.
Speaker 7: I don't know.
Speaker 4: She's talking about a magazine right now. I got it.
Speaker 4: Tell Mega man, I'm not sleeping with you, know. So
Speaker 4: Joey Bayhart says she would not allow let a MAGA
Speaker 4: supporter give her the Heimlich maneuver. So what I learned
Speaker 4: from this, ladies and gentlemen, is if you see joy
Speaker 4: Bayhart choking, don't do anything. See togetherness. Joyce said that's
Speaker 4: what she wanted, togetherness. So today we're going to look
Speaker 4: for more ways to find togetherness. You guys can't see me,
Speaker 4: but I'm actually interlocking my fingers over my head. My
Speaker 4: friend Jessica, who's one of our vice presidents here, she said,
Speaker 4: she was we have this giant glass wall now behind
Speaker 4: us in the studio, and she said she walked behind
Speaker 4: me and I was gesticulating so wildly. She was trying
Speaker 4: to take a picture, but she didn't.
Speaker 6: Never phone with me.
Speaker 4: I was just locking my hands together over my head. Togetherness, togetherness, people,
Speaker 4: We got to figure out how to be more together
Speaker 4: like now. We can all start by agreeing that we
Speaker 4: should go to mandy'sblog dot com every day to experience
Speaker 4: the togetherness.
Speaker 6: Go to Mandy's blog.
Speaker 4: Look for the headline that says eleven five twenty four
Speaker 4: blog thank god it's almost over. Yes, that is the
Speaker 4: actual title of this blog. Click on that and here
Speaker 4: are the headlines you will find within.
Speaker 3: Again.
Speaker 6: Okay, go ahead, grant new over.
Speaker 8: A youth with some in office, half of American all
Speaker 8: with ships and clipmas, and say that's going to press plant.
Speaker 3: Today.
Speaker 6: I'm the block.
Speaker 4: Need help with your ballot? We're election days always like this.
Speaker 4: Thomas Fry is on to talk about the future. What
Speaker 4: to do on election day. We really don't know if
Speaker 4: our voting system is secure. Yes, Big ALA's gone. Never
Speaker 4: mind the nice things I said about Sarah parody, the real.
Speaker 6: Toll of cannabis.
Speaker 4: Stop feeling stressed about the election. TGI Fridays filed for bankruptcy.
Speaker 4: Heidi Klum is the age discrimination warrior. We need want
Speaker 4: cheap tickets for the winter park, Express wind phones help
Speaker 4: people who are grieving. What voting in a rigged election
Speaker 4: is really like the subtle signs of colon cancer, milk,
Speaker 4: cookies and lego for ninety grand a year. Some big
Speaker 4: names are coming to Ballerina next year. British kids try
Speaker 4: on Halloween candy. What have you stopped buying because it's
Speaker 4: too expensive? The fastest way to get to Oh wait
Speaker 4: a minute, that's not supposed to never mind, the fastest
Speaker 4: way to get dementia. Elon Musk was on Joe Rogan
Speaker 4: how porn went maga to take that gold medal in boxing.
Speaker 6: Back Am I Racist?
Speaker 4: Is a documentary smash Top ten things to by at.
Speaker 6: Costco this November.
Speaker 4: Lily Tang Williams may go to the House and I'll
Speaker 4: let Scott Jennings have the last word on the election.
Speaker 4: Those are the headlines on the blog at mandy'sblog dot com,
Speaker 4: and I want to stop at the bottom because I'm
Speaker 4: sure there are those of you in this listening audience
Speaker 4: who remember when I had Lily Tang Williams on the show.
Speaker 4: She is a Chinese immigrant who is passionate about liberty,
Speaker 4: and she is running.
Speaker 6: In New Hampshire.
Speaker 4: She moved from Colorado to New Hampshire, where their state
Speaker 4: motto is live free or die. But they lean Democratic,
Speaker 4: which doesn't make any sense to me, but whatever, go
Speaker 4: New Hampshire, do whatever you're gonna do. So Lily moved
Speaker 4: to New Hampshire a few years ago and she's now
Speaker 4: running in a house district that is leaning very much
Speaker 4: towards the Democrat who is married to Jake Sullivan, who
Speaker 4: was on Obama's National security team. She just had a
Speaker 4: debate with this woman, and oh my goodness, Oh my goodness,
Speaker 4: she went scorched to earth on this woman. And it
Speaker 4: is a thing to see. I'm rooting so hard for Lily.
Speaker 4: She's got an uphill battle. But we'll see what happens.
Speaker 4: Maybe enough people in New Hampshire saw this and we're like,
Speaker 4: you know what, She's right, because she is. If you
Speaker 4: need help with your ballot today, you can always go
Speaker 4: and find my voter guide. I have been very gratified
Speaker 4: to hear from many of my listeners and my friends
Speaker 4: that they used my voter guide and they appreciated the
Speaker 4: simplicity with which I presented the issues. And so if
Speaker 4: you're looking for just simple explanations of stuff that would
Speaker 4: be in my voter guide, I linked to it right
Speaker 4: there on the blog. But you can always just google
Speaker 4: Bandy Connell voter Guide and it will come up.
Speaker 6: Okay, So you have two options there.
Speaker 4: I prefer you go to the blog so I get
Speaker 4: credit for the web traffic, but whatever, do whatever you
Speaker 4: want to do. So a couple of things. Thomas fry
Speaker 4: Our futurist is coming on. And what's funny is I
Speaker 4: never talk about politics with Thomas because we talk about
Speaker 4: the future, right, We just talk about cool technology and
Speaker 4: all this stuff that's happening. And so today he's got
Speaker 4: a column about whether robots will replace children. And it's
Speaker 4: weird that he sent that column out because I've been
Speaker 4: thinking about this. Birth rates around the world have plummeted,
Speaker 4: and I fear and I don't you know, I don't
Speaker 4: have hard data on what I'm about to say, so
Speaker 4: this is wild speculation on my part. But we do
Speaker 4: know that the COVID vaccines had an impact on women's cycles.
Speaker 4: Many many, many, thousands and thousands and thousands of women
Speaker 4: of childbearing age said their cycles were disrupted because of
Speaker 4: the COVID or after the COVID vaccine. They can't say because,
Speaker 4: but they can say after. And I'm afraid we have
Speaker 4: damaged our fertility across the world with vaccines. I don't know,
Speaker 4: but birth rates are way down, and you guys, we
Speaker 4: have to have enough warm bodies.
Speaker 6: To do the things that make the country run.
Speaker 4: But then I started thinking, wait a minute, we're on
Speaker 4: the verge of a robot revolution, like terminator aside. Okay,
Speaker 4: skynet aside. We're on the version of having robots that
Speaker 4: will be capable of doing so many jobs, from caring
Speaker 4: for our elderly patients, taking care of babies. Although I
Speaker 4: would not I don't know if I would allow robots
Speaker 4: to take care of my baby.
Speaker 6: I'm not there yet.
Speaker 4: I mean, I barely allow a human to take care
Speaker 4: of my baby, so I don't know if I'm ready
Speaker 4: to go robot taking care of the baby. I mean,
Speaker 4: you never know. But we're gonna talk to Thomas about that.
Speaker 4: And he said, well, maybe we could talk about robots deciding.
Speaker 6: Elections in the future.
Speaker 4: And I thought to myself, honestly, like, could they be
Speaker 4: much worse than what we've got, which is an emotional
Speaker 4: group of people voting on things that shouldn't be emotional.
Speaker 4: So it's an interesting proposition.
Speaker 6: Mandy, what do you mean big al is gone?
Speaker 4: I got a lot of emails about this yesterday, and
Speaker 4: I figured I would just address it. Alfred v Ka
Speaker 4: and Michael Cooper were part of the country wide layoffs,
Speaker 4: and they were not performance related. They just happen in
Speaker 4: this industry. As a matter of fact. In my blog,
Speaker 4: it even says, this is why you need to follow
Speaker 4: me on social media, because if I'm not here someday,
Speaker 4: that's how you're gonna be able to find me. Back
Speaker 4: in the day, Grit, back when I started in radio,
Speaker 4: if you got fired, there was no way to find
Speaker 4: your host again. But now social media makes it so
Speaker 4: you can keep in touch. So yeah, so I you know,
Speaker 4: I talked to Alfred yesterday. He's in a good headspace
Speaker 4: and just going to do some traveling and whatnot. So
Speaker 4: thank you for all of you who are now texting
Speaker 4: and saying that the blog or that you use the
Speaker 4: voter guide.
Speaker 6: I appreciate that.
Speaker 4: This one said Jesus Mandy talk about tinfoil hat, vaccines
Speaker 4: are sterilizing us. That's not what I said. We know
Speaker 4: it is a medical fact that women of childbearing age
Speaker 4: who had the COVID vaccine, tens of thousands of them,
Speaker 4: had changes to their menstrual cycle. That is not speculation.
Speaker 4: That's not tenfoil hat. That is a thing that happened,
Speaker 4: and I am concerned that in the future it is
Speaker 4: going to lead to some kind of fertility issues. I
Speaker 4: did not say it was sterilizing us. But if you
Speaker 4: look at birth rates right now, they're down all over
Speaker 4: not all over the world, because in third world countries
Speaker 4: people still multiply, like you know, crazy, because a lot
Speaker 4: of their maybe their.
Speaker 6: Children, aren't going to survive.
Speaker 4: I mean, think about it back in eighteen hundred, right,
Speaker 4: and I'm just choosing a year. It could be any
Speaker 4: year back in time that's not now. But in eighteen hundred,
Speaker 4: people would have seven to ten kids, but only like
Speaker 4: six of them would survive to adulthood.
Speaker 6: So you kind of had to head.
Speaker 4: Your bet and you needed to have somebody, you.
Speaker 6: Know, work in the farm. You need to have warm.
Speaker 4: Bodies that could do labor and chores around the house
Speaker 4: to help help things go.
Speaker 6: So yeah, I am concerned.
Speaker 4: Again I said, I don't have any data that is
Speaker 4: hard data on this, but I'm concerned that that is
Speaker 4: a problem. Cycles change, not fertility. Hey, dumbass, those things
Speaker 4: are connected.
Speaker 6: I've had far too.
Speaker 4: Many friends have infertility issues to act like I don't
Speaker 4: know what I'm talking about here, and you do text her.
Speaker 4: Those things are very connected, and irregular period makes it
Speaker 4: much harder to get pregnant. They are very very connected.
Speaker 4: But thanks for playing, sir, Thanks for mansplaining menstrual cycles
Speaker 4: to me, sir, thanks so much. Can't imagine why women
Speaker 4: would be annoyed by that. Thanks for playing good gravy.
Speaker 4: This says it's due to the cost of having a kid,
Speaker 4: maybe in the United States, but not around the world.
Speaker 4: And when I say fertility is down in the around
Speaker 4: the world, I'm not exaggerating to the point where some
Speaker 4: nations are very, very very including ours, are very close.
Speaker 4: We might be below the replacement rate right now. So
Speaker 4: you know what this guy is now further, man's playing
Speaker 4: menstrual cycle. So I might just go. You know what
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do, Grant, I'm gonna block them. Cross and
Speaker 4: I were just talking about this, like we don't know. Goodbye.
Speaker 4: We try, both us and I try not to block people,
Speaker 4: like I try to use the text line as a
Speaker 4: democratized thing.
Speaker 6: You know, I want to hear from you guys.
Speaker 4: But when you just become annoying and relentless and never
Speaker 4: stop texting and then you start texting crap. I'm just
Speaker 4: to the point now where I'm just gonna block you.
Speaker 6: So there you go.
Speaker 4: It'll make my life better. I've tried to be a giver, Grant.
Speaker 4: I've tried to remain like, here's your soapbox, Texter, but
Speaker 4: if you have used the soapbox, we're gonna throw you
Speaker 4: out of the town square.
Speaker 6: So there you go, Mandy.
Speaker 4: First world countries also tend to put careers over kids now,
Speaker 4: especially for women. That is absolutely right, And unfortunately a
Speaker 4: lot of those women are buying into the lie that hey, you.
Speaker 6: Know what, just freeze your eggs.
Speaker 4: Just freeze your eggs, and then later when you decide
Speaker 4: you want to have kids, you can just go and
Speaker 4: use those eggs that you frozen and you can have
Speaker 4: a baby. Except they don't say IVF doesn't work every
Speaker 4: time IVF doesn't work. I don't know what the percentage
Speaker 4: of successful IVF implantations are at this point. What is
Speaker 4: the success rate of IVF.
Speaker 6: Let's see here, real quick.
Speaker 4: Fifty percent, fifty percent, it's successful fifty percent, And that's
Speaker 4: a single healthy embryo has a successful pregnancy rate greater
Speaker 4: than fifty percent, just barely over fifty percent. Now, if
Speaker 4: you're in the other fifty percent and IVF doesn't work
Speaker 4: for you, you're now forty years old with absolutely no
Speaker 4: prospects of being able to have a child. And I
Speaker 4: cannot tell you how many friends I have personally who
Speaker 4: bought into the lie you can have a baby anytime.
Speaker 4: They look at halle Berry who had a baby when
Speaker 4: she was like forty five, and they're like, look at
Speaker 4: that halle Berry.
Speaker 6: Had a baby.
Speaker 4: I'm like, do you look like halle Berry. No, that's
Speaker 4: because you're not halle Berry. So there's a lot of
Speaker 4: women who found out too late that it's a lie.
Speaker 4: It's just a lie that you can absolutely have a
Speaker 4: baby on your schedule. So anyway, Mandy, you want to
Speaker 4: stay in an echo chamber. You don't like people to
Speaker 4: challenge your views. Well, I just read that text message,
Speaker 4: so I guess not text. I read text messages that
Speaker 4: disagree with me all the time. But when you spend
Speaker 4: three hours of the show relentlessly texting me nonsense over
Speaker 4: and over and over again, I don't have to put
Speaker 4: up with that. I mean, would you What would you do,
Speaker 4: Texter if you got a neighbor who disagreed with something
Speaker 4: about the way you were doing your yard, and all
Speaker 4: day at your job, they were sending text message after
Speaker 4: sex text message telling you how stupid you were, or
Speaker 4: telling you were you wrong, or telling you that you're
Speaker 4: an idiot, or tell you that your nipples are too large?
Speaker 4: Which of these things would be okay with you? Because
Speaker 4: I get all of that on the text line, all
Speaker 4: of it, every bit of it. So any of those
Speaker 4: things are okay with you. Just because I'm on the
Speaker 4: radio doesn't mean that you have the right to be
Speaker 4: abusive anyway. So there you go, Mandy, h I called
Speaker 4: the Denver Clerk and Recorder Office early to clarify in
Speaker 4: the Wait a minute, Okay, when you send two text
Speaker 4: messages in a row, they don't come in order. That's
Speaker 4: the other thing. Let's have text message one oh one.
Speaker 4: Don't be a dill hole. Don't text over and over
Speaker 4: and over again and being a dill hole. And if
Speaker 4: you have two things to text, you either have to
Speaker 4: put them in one giant text or you got to
Speaker 4: text really fast because there's a bunch of other text
Speaker 4: messages that come in between you. So there you go, Mandy.
Speaker 4: I love your opinions and I love how you take
Speaker 4: other people's opinions at the same time.
Speaker 6: Thank you very much. Appreciate that. Appreciate that.
Speaker 4: Mandy, my hairdresser, who had not had a period in
Speaker 4: years and did not get the jab started having her
Speaker 4: period again right after her clients receive the JAB. We've
Speaker 4: seen lots of info on shedding, and she was very susceptible,
Speaker 4: giving that she spends time touching her clients' heads and
Speaker 4: is in very close proximity for thirty plus minutes. So
Speaker 4: there you go, there you go. Boom, Mandy, You're freaking awesome.
Speaker 4: Funny how it feels like all the naysayers are out today? Yeah, yeah, Mandy,
Speaker 4: My fifty one year old daughter in law had a
Speaker 4: beautiful daughter last year via IVF. She's in the fifty percent,
Speaker 4: she's in the fifty percent, But what about the other
Speaker 4: fifty percent? And by the way, having a baby at
Speaker 4: fifty one sounds honestly like the worst possible thing that
Speaker 4: could ever happen to someone. I had my baby at forty.
Speaker 4: Having babies is a young person's game, really, really, really
Speaker 4: a young person's game.
Speaker 6: Anyway, all right, you.
Speaker 4: Guys, we've got stuff to talk about. But I want
Speaker 4: to talk about something that's not on the blog because
Speaker 4: I heard Ross talking about it and I think it's
Speaker 4: a great topic. And honestly, I'm so burned out the
Speaker 4: election stuff. I don't want to continue having that conversation.
Speaker 4: I just don't, so let's talk about this instead. Apparently
Speaker 4: all of these ferrets that have been released across the
Speaker 4: West have in order to control the prairie dog population.
Speaker 4: There are thousands of these ferrets have all descended from
Speaker 4: seven ferrets that were captured in Wyoming or Montana. I
Speaker 4: can't remember years ago, So every ferret in the West,
Speaker 4: in the wild is descended from these seven ferrets. Got
Speaker 4: me to thinking, if we had to repopulate the earth
Speaker 4: starting at zero, which two humans should we use to
Speaker 4: repopulate the earth? And why this is your question. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna let you think on it and then grant you
Speaker 4: know what. I'm feeling crazy. Let's open up the phone lines.
Speaker 4: Let's do it. I'm gonna stop reading text messages. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna start taking phone calls. How about that. We'll do
Speaker 4: all that next. You know what, have you ever missed
Speaker 4: an email and then you realize after you miss it,
Speaker 4: you were like, oh, that was a bad one to
Speaker 4: miss it. Hang on, I got to finish sitting this email.
Speaker 4: Oh God, that's so disappointing. Anyway, moving on, I've got
Speaker 4: stuff to talk about and I want to hear from you.
Speaker 4: I'm tired of text messages today. So I'm asking a
Speaker 4: very simple, stupid question. And yes, I realized it's a
Speaker 4: stupid hypothetical question along the lines of, you know, Batman
Speaker 4: versus Superman kind of stuff, monoy, personal favorites, what if.
Speaker 6: My color blue was your color red? Grant? What if
Speaker 6: what if my red was your purple?
Speaker 4: And it just was confusing. We're all seeing different things differently.
Speaker 5: This sounds like someone who partook in some medicinal marijuana.
Speaker 6: Yeah I'm not.
Speaker 3: I'm not.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, not no gonna anyway, So I want you
Speaker 4: to know three O three seven one three eighty five
Speaker 4: eighty five. That's three O three seven one three eighty
Speaker 4: five eighty five. I'd like to know the answer to
Speaker 4: this very simple question. Earlier, Ross was talking about a
Speaker 4: story about the reintroduction of blackfooted ferrets, and the interesting
Speaker 4: part of the story was is that they have cloned
Speaker 4: a blackfooted ferret and it is an adult and it
Speaker 4: just had babies. There was some question about whether or
Speaker 4: not cloned animals would be able to reproduce, and now
Speaker 4: we know they can. But in that conversation he also
Speaker 4: mentioned that there are thousands of ferrets that have been
Speaker 4: released in the West in order to control the prairie
Speaker 4: dog population because apparently ferrets eat baby prairie dogs, and
Speaker 4: so it keeps the population under control of the natural way.
Speaker 4: Yet all of these thousands of ferrets are all descended
Speaker 4: from the same seven ferrets that were captured many years ago,
Speaker 4: so all of them have the same genetic makeup. There's
Speaker 4: no genetic what's the word I'm looking for. There's no genetic.
Speaker 4: What's the word I'm looking for. I can't think of
Speaker 4: it right now. Were you at diversity?
Speaker 6: Thank you?
Speaker 4: Genetic diversity in this population? And I thought it was
Speaker 4: really interesting. And I thought, look, if we had to
Speaker 4: repopulate the Earth, or even better, say we're going to
Speaker 4: populate a colony on Mars, right, and we can only
Speaker 4: send two people to Mars that they would be responsible
Speaker 4: for repopulating or populating Mars. I mean, you'd have to
Speaker 4: add in some people or would be weird and inbred
Speaker 4: and whatever. But who would be the two people and
Speaker 4: they have to be alive. Now, I had a couple
Speaker 4: of people ask me for some clarifications. Who would be
Speaker 4: the two people that you would want to use their
Speaker 4: genetics to repopulate the earth. Now, in the case of
Speaker 4: a woman that is outside of childbearing age, we'll just
Speaker 4: we'll grandfather them in. Because men can have babies. I mean,
Speaker 4: I think look up and see when Charlie Chaplin's last
Speaker 4: child was born.
Speaker 6: I want to say he was like eighty when he.
Speaker 4: Had his last child. Well, he didn't have the last child,
Speaker 4: but he helped produce the last child. So men can,
Speaker 4: you know, reproduce for a very long time.
Speaker 6: But I'm curious.
Speaker 4: I know who, I'd say, what seventy three years oldly at.
Speaker 6: Eight he followed a child? Like you guys, is that
Speaker 6: fear of the kid?
Speaker 8: You know?
Speaker 4: I think the Rolling Stones all have small children and
Speaker 4: they're like eighty. I just don't think that's fair of
Speaker 4: the kid. Robert de Niro seventy nine. Yeah, he just
Speaker 4: had a baby with his girlfriend, and let's just be
Speaker 4: let's be real. In my mind, those women are doing
Speaker 4: a money grab. I know you love him and everything,
Speaker 4: but do you really want to have it? It's like,
Speaker 4: I don't know, it would be like having a child
Speaker 4: with someone that you knew had a you know, a
Speaker 4: disease that was going to kill them quickly. I mean,
Speaker 4: I guess you could do that anyway, because you wanted
Speaker 4: to have a child with that person and have a
Speaker 4: little part of them. I you know, maybe I'll give
Speaker 4: these women some slack, just a little bit, just a
Speaker 4: teeny tiny bit. Jessica has called in on something else.
Speaker 4: You can call in on that.
Speaker 6: Three oh three. Do you guys remember how to work
Speaker 6: your phones?
Speaker 4: You open up the phone icon on your cell phone
Speaker 4: and then you dial. There's numbers that will pop up
Speaker 4: and you just style three oh three seven, one, three eight,
Speaker 4: two five five, and then you'll hear a ringing noise
Speaker 4: and then you'll hear grant pick it up, and then
Speaker 4: you tell them what you want. It's I'll bring you
Speaker 4: back to the phone. It's fine, uh, Jessica. What is
Speaker 4: happening in your world?
Speaker 9: Okay?
Speaker 10: Mandy, I'm hoping that you were your voter or some
Speaker 10: of your listeners can give some clarity. A Rarea put
Speaker 10: out your real on Facebook today saying it's all about
Speaker 10: voting and registration for students and down in Denver, and
Speaker 10: on several times I said, all you need is your
Speaker 10: student ided that's it. And the Denver Clark and re
Speaker 10: Carder Paul Lopez is on there with the same information,
Speaker 10: and that concerns me. So I call the Denver Clark
Speaker 10: three Quarters office, who transfers me to Elections, to try
Speaker 10: and take me back. And then after a couple back
Speaker 10: and forth, I'm told that all they really need is
Speaker 10: their idea that they should they should have a proof
Speaker 10: of address. And I said, well, the information you have
Speaker 10: on social media contradicts that. Do you think you guys
Speaker 10: do qualified? And they basically blew me off. And then
Speaker 10: I asked, how do you know with a student ID
Speaker 10: if the person is even legally allowed to vote? And
Speaker 10: they didn't have an answer for that. So to get
Speaker 10: at a area with you know, a whole bunch of
Speaker 10: the student vote, and you know, yay, I'm glad the
Speaker 10: student voting. I just want to make sure that we're
Speaker 10: concerned with election integrity and I don't know how Denver's
Speaker 10: doing that given the information that they're telling these students.
Speaker 4: You know what, that would just be on brand at
Speaker 4: this point for Democrats running elections. And I hate to
Speaker 4: say it like that, and I'm sure that there are
Speaker 4: Democrats doing an incredible job following the rules and the
Speaker 4: la but right now, I think this election cycle, more
Speaker 4: than any has shown us that aren't quote, gold standard
Speaker 4: elections are an illusion from Jennet Griswold's blatant and absolute
Speaker 4: incompetence to everything that has happened after that. I mean,
Speaker 4: it's just it's not surprising. And of course they want
Speaker 4: students to vote. Who are students going to vote for?
Speaker 4: Kamala Harris and all of the democratic stuff that they
Speaker 4: want to yes vote for. So yeah, I'm sure they're
Speaker 4: looking the other way. I'm sure there's going to be
Speaker 4: students that are not legally allowed to vote. They're going
Speaker 4: to cast a ballot today that's going to be counted,
Speaker 4: and there's really nothing we can do about it.
Speaker 10: But Jessica, give a metro in the area. I think
Speaker 10: there'll be a lot of that.
Speaker 4: To be honest, Yeah, I would say you might be
Speaker 4: right there, And Jessica, I appreciate you bringing it to
Speaker 4: our attention. I just don't think there's anything we can
Speaker 4: do about it, especially if the Clerk's office was cavalier
Speaker 4: about whether or not they were getting that information out.
Speaker 10: Yeah, both the Clerk's office and the Secretary of State
Speaker 10: office just didn't even want to didn't care.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you know what, maybe we'll follow up after
Speaker 4: the election and see what we can find out.
Speaker 6: But you know, calling today isn't going to do anything great.
Speaker 6: All right, all.
Speaker 4: Right, thanks Jessica, I appreciate it.
Speaker 6: Three O three seven one.
Speaker 4: Three eighty five eighty five. That is an interesting story.
Speaker 4: We'll follow up on. But hopefully this caller wants to
Speaker 4: talk about repopulating the earth with really smart people.
Speaker 6: By the way, if.
Speaker 4: You're sending them on text, I'm not going to read
Speaker 4: the text messages out loud. I am only talking to
Speaker 4: callers right now, the special people that still know how
Speaker 4: to work the phone. No one's calling with my answer, Sherry,
Speaker 4: you're on, you're on, Kowa, what's on your mind?
Speaker 9: I was at the courthouse yesterday in Denver for the
Speaker 9: case against the Secretary of State and Sherry.
Speaker 4: What you're talking Wait what you're talking about? In case
Speaker 4: people don't know, are you associated with the Libertarian Party?
Speaker 11: No?
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, Well let me let me explain real quick
Speaker 4: people that did not hear about this. The Libertarian Party
Speaker 4: is actually suing jannat Griswold because they have concerns about
Speaker 4: the security of the voting machines, because their experts have
Speaker 4: said that with the passwords that were leaked online for
Speaker 4: three months could be used to affect voting security. And
Speaker 4: as far as I know, has the judge ruled on
Speaker 4: that yet, I have.
Speaker 9: Not heard anything. I've been kind of waiting, although we
Speaker 9: all kind of had a feeling we knew which way
Speaker 9: it was going to go. Yeah, so I yeah, it's
Speaker 9: just too hard gone. I mean, her team, literal literally,
Speaker 9: her team of attorneys just wear around in circles, especially
Speaker 9: over the plaintiffs witnesses. Oh really had a very good
Speaker 9: witness Oh yeah, just tuck circles around them. You know,
Speaker 9: got a lot of objection sustained. Of course, it was
Speaker 9: just like a It was like being in a fight
Speaker 9: with five people against one.
Speaker 6: I can imagine.
Speaker 4: Oh, well, I've reached out, I have, I got the emails.
Speaker 4: I'm going to have somebody from the Libertarian Party on.
Speaker 4: I figured we gin them on tomorrow. I don't think
Speaker 4: anything is going to happen to change this election. I'm
Speaker 4: kind of with you that this judge is like, there's
Speaker 4: no way I'm going to demand a handcount in all
Speaker 4: of these counties. I just don't see this judge having
Speaker 4: the bravery to do it. Although I think and there's
Speaker 4: certainly enough evidence to suggest that is what should happen.
Speaker 9: Yeah, basically, they wrote the Secretary of State Attorneys pointed out, well,
Speaker 9: nothing nessarious occurred from the leaked biof passwords.
Speaker 4: But did they also say that they couldn't tell if
Speaker 4: anything nefarious had happened exactly.
Speaker 9: Yeah, they couldn't say one way or the other.
Speaker 6: Right, Well, that was their point, Cherry.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna reach out to the folks from the Libertarian Party,
Speaker 4: so hopefully we'll have an update tomorrow.
Speaker 6: But I don't think anything changes. I think you're right
Speaker 6: about that.
Speaker 9: Yeah, all right, it was frustrating, and I'm glad I
Speaker 9: got so all right, I'm glad you went too.
Speaker 4: I appreciate the phone call. We're going to take a
Speaker 4: quick time out. We got people calling with their names
Speaker 4: about repopulating the work earth. I will talk about text
Speaker 4: messages in the next hour for those of you who
Speaker 4: just don't want to talk, Okay, just letting you know
Speaker 4: I just missed phone calls, miss talking to people. I'll
Speaker 4: be right back. Who needs to repopulate the world? What
Speaker 4: do you got for me?
Speaker 12: Jay?
Speaker 13: Randy?
Speaker 4: Hello from your favorite retired police officer now living in
Speaker 4: Las Vegas.
Speaker 7: Oh.
Speaker 4: I'm headed there tomorrow as a matter of fact, going
Speaker 4: to go see my mom. I'll be broadcasting from the
Speaker 4: Vegas studios, which I'm kind of excited about. That's exciting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was just down there.
Speaker 13: But anyway, back to my original I would pickl so
Speaker 13: I full have your answer, and then I would go
Speaker 13: with Condoleeza Rice for the other half.
Speaker 4: See. I like that, I like Kandy, I like Elon,
Speaker 4: both super smart people. I like the fact that you
Speaker 4: would begin the New World Order with mixed race people.
Speaker 4: So maybe all of these sort of issues that we
Speaker 4: have with tribalism and culture and stuff like that would
Speaker 4: sort of fall by the wayside. I think that is
Speaker 4: an excellent combination, and we could do a lot worse.
Speaker 2: That's true, we could.
Speaker 13: So I sent you a EMO.
Speaker 6: Have a great day, all right, man, have a good one.
Speaker 4: And Crystal, uh, Crystal, you're on KOA.
Speaker 6: What's on your mind?
Speaker 8: Hip?
Speaker 13: So the color thing, so if in our eyes we
Speaker 13: have cones which help us see colors, right now, my
Speaker 13: blue color code could end up being you're yellow and
Speaker 13: you're thinking that the blue yellow you see is blue.
Speaker 13: So there is a way that it actually could be
Speaker 13: going on.
Speaker 4: So wait a minute, you're telling me all the stoner
Speaker 4: conversations from college or at it.
Speaker 6: It can be Oh god, you just wrecked my world.
Speaker 4: Isn't that interesting?
Speaker 7: That?
Speaker 4: I mean because it would all be consistent in the
Speaker 4: sense that we're calling the same color green, but what
Speaker 4: we're actually seeing as green could be totally different. That's
Speaker 4: that's what that's an actual thing now.
Speaker 13: It actually yes, but it's more like royal blue to you,
Speaker 13: could be more like a regular blue to me. So
Speaker 13: would you just different shades of colors? Not necessarily that drastic,
Speaker 13: but yes, it actually happens, all.
Speaker 4: Right, you just blew my mind, Crystal, Thanks for that.
Speaker 6: Appreciates you.
Speaker 14: Yeah, dude, dude, I like the fact that Grant has
Speaker 14: the bong sound effect ready to go, like right out
Speaker 14: of the chuote like bam, let's go.
Speaker 6: What's wrong with white people? Ask this person. I'm just saying,
Speaker 6: I I you know, I guess if they were all white.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I guess we could do that too,
Speaker 4: just trying to be a little inclusive. I didn't even
Speaker 4: think about the race thing until somebody said Condelli's Rice,
Speaker 4: because I think she's brilliant. I would love to have
Speaker 4: her on the show to just talk about football. She's
Speaker 4: part of the ownership group for the Broncos. I know
Speaker 4: many people don't know that, but I would love to
Speaker 4: have a conversation with her. I have a tremendous amount
Speaker 4: of admiration for her. Just at admiration. It's a nice
Speaker 4: thing to feel, Mandy. On the subject of election integrity,
Speaker 4: you might find this funny. When I lived in Massachusetts,
Speaker 4: there was no ID requirement for state and federal elections.
Speaker 4: You just walked up told an election worker your address.
Speaker 4: But for town meetings municipal level, you had to show
Speaker 4: official ID just to get into the auditorium.
Speaker 6: Few people ever saw the irony of that.
Speaker 4: I do want to point out to our caller who
Speaker 4: called earlier, a different.
Speaker 6: Texter, before I could even google.
Speaker 4: She called and was concerned the students were being allowed
Speaker 4: to vote with just their student ID. In Colorado, there
Speaker 4: are a lot of different forms of ID that are available.
Speaker 4: You can find them on the Secretary of State's office.
Speaker 4: One of them is a valid student identification card with
Speaker 4: a photograph of the eligible elector issued by an institute
Speaker 4: of higher education in Colorado, as defined in Section twenty
Speaker 4: three Dash three point one dash one oh two five crs,
Speaker 4: so they can vote with just a student ID.
Speaker 6: So we don't need to worry about that. We're going
Speaker 6: to get Oh, we.
Speaker 4: Got all kinds of people calling on all kinds of stuff. Okay,
Speaker 4: David goes to the top of the list when we
Speaker 4: get back. His combination of how to repopulate the earth
Speaker 4: has to be one of the most entertaining that I
Speaker 4: could ever imagine.
Speaker 6: We'll do that next.
Speaker 1: The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock
Speaker 1: Accident and Injury Lawyers.
Speaker 2: No, it's Mandy Connell and John Kola ninety four one FM.
Speaker 11: Got way the nicety there.
Speaker 2: Andy Connell, Keithing sad Babe.
Speaker 1: The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock
Speaker 1: Accident and Injury Lawyers. No.
Speaker 7: The architect of the future, the future is now.
Speaker 2: It's futurist Thomas Frye.
Speaker 4: At futurists speaker dot com if you'd like him to
Speaker 4: come speak to your organization. I do want to give
Speaker 4: a little payoff for those people who waited David who
Speaker 4: was on hold with his two people to repopulate the earth.
Speaker 4: I'm just going to tell you who they were, because
Speaker 4: it was too funny not to, he said Chris Christy
Speaker 4: and Simone Biles. I don't know the thinking behind that,
Speaker 4: but it made me laugh out loud. So thank you
Speaker 4: David for that. And we'll talk about that a little
Speaker 4: bit later. But Thomas is on today to talk about robots,
Speaker 4: and you've been you've been deep in the robot rabbit
Speaker 4: hole for a little while. What is uh, what have
Speaker 4: you been seeing in the world of robe Thomas?
Speaker 3: Well, they're going to start evolving very quickly here.
Speaker 8: I think we're going to start seeing robots with capabilities
Speaker 8: we never imagined. But I recently wrote this column just
Speaker 8: titled will robots replace the children that we're not having?
Speaker 3: Replace the kids we're not having? And it's interesting.
Speaker 8: Because there's benefits to having robots around it. I mean,
Speaker 8: as soon as we ironically, as soon as we have
Speaker 8: robots that can change a dirty diaper, it'll make it
Speaker 8: much easier to actually have kids. So maybe robots will
Speaker 8: actually increase the population rather than decrease it.
Speaker 4: Do you think there's going to be Because I got
Speaker 4: to tell you, as a mom, like the thought of
Speaker 4: handing over my little baby to a robot just does
Speaker 4: not drive with me. Right now that that just does
Speaker 4: not what kind of what kind of curve are we
Speaker 4: looking at for robot acceptance? Now you're talking about development, right,
Speaker 4: and I think some of the stuff is happening in
Speaker 4: robot development is fascinating, really really fascinating. But when you're
Speaker 4: talking about a new mom, especially of second mom, like
Speaker 4: second kid, the mom will be like, take the baby,
Speaker 4: it's fine, But first time moms, I mean, what is
Speaker 4: that curve going to be looking like before we all
Speaker 4: just accept that we have a robot made that is
Speaker 4: in our house, or a robot taking care of our babies,
Speaker 4: or a robot taking care of our older people.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we have to have robots that we're comfortable around.
Speaker 8: We have to have ones that have a soft touch
Speaker 8: that we can have interactive conversations with that they feel
Speaker 8: much more human than anything that we exist today.
Speaker 3: We still have a long ways to go up.
Speaker 8: And so there'll be many iterations of evolution on the
Speaker 8: robot world before we get to that point. Yeah, I
Speaker 8: think that having a robot that can walk to your
Speaker 8: kids to school, that can actually go out and play
Speaker 8: with the kids, I think people are going to love that.
Speaker 8: And interestingly enough, you know, people are worried about too
Speaker 8: much screen time for the kids today, Well, they might
Speaker 8: be worried about too much robot time with the kids
Speaker 8: in the future.
Speaker 4: I would think that that would be concerning to some parents.
Speaker 4: I think other parents would be grateful that they don't
Speaker 4: have to deal with that anymore. But you know some
Speaker 4: parents who are very involved. I think my questions would
Speaker 4: more be along the lines of, if my child asks
Speaker 4: my robot nanny, we'll call it robot nanny, Okay, a question,
Speaker 4: a philosophical question. As little children do they ask you
Speaker 4: these questions throughout their childhood, all of these really deep,
Speaker 4: meaningful questions. How do I program the sort of response
Speaker 4: that I would want my robot to give? For instance,
Speaker 4: I lean conservative politically, liberty and freedom are very important
Speaker 4: to me. How do I, as a parent ensure that
Speaker 4: my robot will reinforce those values that I'm trying to
Speaker 4: instill in my kid.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they're not going to have little switches that say
Speaker 8: Republican or Democratic on them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they are.
Speaker 8: This this role I think these robots, I think will
Speaker 8: evolve around the conversations that are currently being had around
Speaker 8: for the family. I don't think that there's any hardcore
Speaker 8: way of programming the robot. But I think that they
Speaker 8: will be very adaptive and understand what what the conversations
Speaker 8: are that are taking place currently and how to actually
Speaker 8: feed on that. I see robots becoming much more human
Speaker 8: like over the coming years, and to the to the
Speaker 8: point where where they actually are hybrid and actually flesh
Speaker 8: bots that are we actually have human like flesh that
Speaker 8: grows on the outside of these things, and so the
Speaker 8: touch that they have is going to be actually real
Speaker 8: human touch. And of course there's going to be all
Speaker 8: kinds of ups and downs with.
Speaker 3: A lot of a lot of weirdness that goes lining
Speaker 3: with this.
Speaker 4: But okay, you just took me right to Star Trek
Speaker 4: next Generation and Data. Okay, Data was a robot, but
Speaker 4: he always looked like his skin had had been grown
Speaker 4: in a lab to me. So I mean, is that
Speaker 4: what you're talking about where they look humanoid but they
Speaker 4: actually have a robot in our core?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: Yeah, we will see how this all takes place.
Speaker 8: And and there's there's lots of people that have talked
Speaker 8: about downloading their their personnel, their their their essence of.
Speaker 3: Who they are into the Internet to live forever.
Speaker 8: But talking about downloading it into a robot that actually
Speaker 8: has physical capabilities, so you can live forever as a robot.
Speaker 3: That's a whole different ballgame.
Speaker 8: And so that opens up another wide area of discussion
Speaker 8: that we're currently not prepared to have.
Speaker 4: Well, it would be my look that only the irritating,
Speaker 4: annoying people who text me relentlessly every day would find
Speaker 4: a way to download their consciousness into a robot so
Speaker 4: they would never die. It would only be the annoying people,
Speaker 4: right that would do that. It wouldn't be the people
Speaker 4: we actually wanted to do that. It would just be
Speaker 4: people that are irritating and whatnot. So I don't know.
Speaker 6: I mean, I am, on the one end.
Speaker 4: I'm very excited about the future of what robots can
Speaker 4: do and what they can accomplish and how game changing
Speaker 4: they can be. And I guess the evolution of not
Speaker 4: just the robots, but also how we interact with the
Speaker 4: robots is going to be a much slower process, so
Speaker 4: we'll have time to adapt, you know. I mean, it's
Speaker 4: been kind of funny to me to see how quickly
Speaker 4: people adapted to self driving cars in San Francisco, where
Speaker 4: they're willing to get into a waygo that has no
Speaker 4: driver and go ahead and let it take them around
Speaker 4: San Francisco. I would have thought that would have been
Speaker 4: a much longer curve, but it's not. People seem willing
Speaker 4: to just like, let's do this. Is that surprising at all?
Speaker 4: I guess.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I was reading some of the projections on humanoid robots
Speaker 8: and how quickly this these things will grow, and how
Speaker 8: many people are going to buy these things?
Speaker 3: And projections are by two and thirty five.
Speaker 8: One projection list that we'd have one and a half
Speaker 8: million robots out there.
Speaker 4: Oh wow.
Speaker 3: And another projection.
Speaker 8: That was by two thousand and forty was that we
Speaker 8: would have a billion of them out there. And so
Speaker 8: somewhere in the middle I think is the real number.
Speaker 3: And so how popular will these things be? Well, it
Speaker 3: depends on all their.
Speaker 8: Capabilities and how.
Speaker 3: Easy they are to work with and get along with.
Speaker 8: And certainly if they can take a lot of the
Speaker 8: workload off of us, that will they'll make it much
Speaker 8: more valuable in our own minds.
Speaker 3: So I see. I mean, if a robot.
Speaker 8: Can take care of our kids and take care of
Speaker 8: the dogs and clean up the house for us, if
Speaker 8: they can wash our dishes, well, we still need dishwashers.
Speaker 3: If they can cook our.
Speaker 8: Food for us, well, we still need we still be
Speaker 8: inclined to go out to restaurants, or we'll be more
Speaker 8: inclined to eat dinner at home and engage and bring
Speaker 8: our friends over. And how long will it be before
Speaker 8: a robot comedian is funnier than human comedians or talk show.
Speaker 4: Host I mean, I mean everybody likes to think, well,
Speaker 4: my job's not replaceable, but realistically we're very quickly moving
Speaker 4: to an arena where AI. There are radio stations right
Speaker 4: now that have fully AI DJs, and it's not as
Speaker 4: well recepted, I think, as they would have liked, because
Speaker 4: people are a little turned off by that, I guess.
Speaker 4: But ultimately, I mean, are we all replaceable? Are there
Speaker 4: any Are there any fields where it would be safe
Speaker 4: to say I could not be replaced because I don't
Speaker 4: see it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's actually hard to.
Speaker 8: So some of the areas that I don't know how
Speaker 8: we'd replaces.
Speaker 3: A robot will not start a business and will not know.
Speaker 8: How to take risks if there's no human involved. I
Speaker 8: don't think a robot will be able to open a
Speaker 8: bank account. Robots don't need clothing, they don't need food.
Speaker 8: There's lots of needs that they don't have, So we
Speaker 8: still need humans to generate our economy, but they can
Speaker 8: replace a lot of the workload that we would normally have,
Speaker 8: so it's hard to actually harse us out into yess
Speaker 8: the work. And now that won't work because we're going
Speaker 8: to figure out new ways to do things right robots
Speaker 8: that we never mentioned.
Speaker 4: Somebody just asked this question. I think it's kind of interesting.
Speaker 4: If a robot is a witness to a crime in
Speaker 4: the house, how would this impact the accused and their rights?
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm assuming that they have the capability of
Speaker 4: at least a limited time playback that they could access,
Speaker 4: and they might be an actual video tape of.
Speaker 6: What just happened.
Speaker 4: I mean, that would have to be sorted out because
Speaker 4: I want my robot recording everything that happens in my house.
Speaker 3: Could your robot get subpoena in court?
Speaker 4: That's kind of I think what they're asking, like, what
Speaker 4: do you know? Do you could the video be subpoena? Yes,
Speaker 4: but could the robot testify?
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know if that would be I
Speaker 4: don't know if I'm on a jury and a robot
Speaker 4: sits there and says this is what happened. Because they
Speaker 4: can't swear on a bible. I mean they could, but
Speaker 4: does it really mean anything?
Speaker 7: You know what?
Speaker 4: I mean, what's the ethical standards that robots have?
Speaker 13: Yeah?
Speaker 3: What does a robot bible look like?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Exactly, exactly, go ahead.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that we're going to all kinds of
Speaker 8: legal issues that we never anticipated as well, having robot intruders.
Speaker 8: A robot breaks into my house, Oh gosh, fault is it?
Speaker 4: I mean it would have to be the people that
Speaker 4: program the robots to break into your house.
Speaker 6: I didn't even think about that, Thomas.
Speaker 4: That's a whole new worry because a robot could kick
Speaker 4: in your door, come in, overpower you physically, and you
Speaker 4: can't do anything to fight back against a robot. And
Speaker 4: then what are you going to identify? Yeah, robot came
Speaker 4: in my house, I'll give you a description. You know,
Speaker 4: they all look the same kind of thing. That's a
Speaker 4: little bit scary as well. So, I mean it's going
Speaker 4: to be as soon as criminals get robots. What are
Speaker 4: criminals going to do with robots?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 8: So I was thinking, if you want to buy groceries.
Speaker 3: Should probably want your robot to go to the grocery.
Speaker 8: Store and buy them for you, right, pick them up
Speaker 8: and bring them home, But you don't want to give
Speaker 8: the robot access to your main bank account.
Speaker 3: So would you set up a separate bank account for
Speaker 3: your robot?
Speaker 6: I would?
Speaker 4: I mean I would because I have had situations where
Speaker 4: someone else was doing my shopping for me, and I
Speaker 4: set up a separate bank account just for them, and.
Speaker 6: That was a human.
Speaker 4: I'm not giving a human access to my bank account,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean. I mean my husband, yes,
Speaker 4: but not a general person, So that would make sense.
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, I mean you just give them their
Speaker 4: own little bank card.
Speaker 8: So then if somebody decides to hijack robot and steal
Speaker 8: their money, what does that look like?
Speaker 3: Then? Who's going there's all these what if scenario?
Speaker 4: It was gonna say, how do you hijack a robot?
Speaker 4: Are you talking about hacking in or standing there holding
Speaker 4: you know, a gun at a robot saying give me
Speaker 4: all your money or I'm gonna I'm gonna.
Speaker 8: Shoot you, Yeah, something like that. And should a robot
Speaker 8: be allowed to defend itself? And to what extent should
Speaker 8: it be able to disable the person that's trying to
Speaker 8: harm it.
Speaker 4: I say yes, because ultimately, if a robot is there
Speaker 4: to serve and protect you, then they should be able
Speaker 4: to defend themselves, but only in a defensive posture, meaning
Speaker 4: they could block someone from hitting them. They could neutralize
Speaker 4: someone by you know, putting them in a hold, a
Speaker 4: robot hold, so they can't move or do anything while
Speaker 4: they're simultaneously calling the police on their little imaginary headset
Speaker 4: that I just gave them inside their robot heads. I mean, yeah,
Speaker 4: but it's the most challenging thing for me is that
Speaker 4: I know that the military is working on making robot soldiers,
Speaker 4: and how do you program a robot to kill certain
Speaker 4: people but not others? And what's to prevent someone from
Speaker 4: hacking into that set of robots and turning them on you.
Speaker 4: That's this kind of stuff that I think about, Thomas.
Speaker 3: Right, there's a downside all of this.
Speaker 8: Yeah, if your robot suddenly calls the police to come
Speaker 8: in and intervene, it would actually be a police bot
Speaker 8: that shows up.
Speaker 3: That takes over.
Speaker 8: And so how does a police spot then take care
Speaker 8: of this person that's giving problems?
Speaker 3: Does that police spot have more leeway in dealing with criminals.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's it raises all kinds of interesting questions.
Speaker 3: Should they be allowed to use me, be allowed to
Speaker 3: use tear gas?
Speaker 4: In theory, you would think that, like, let's talk about
Speaker 4: RoboCop here for a second, not the movie, but an
Speaker 4: actual RoboCop that we're building in my mind here, you
Speaker 4: could make that robot pretty impenetrable. Like right now, when
Speaker 4: a police officer engages with a criminal in a physical way,
Speaker 4: there's a good chance that cop could also get hurt.
Speaker 4: But if you had a robot cop that could then
Speaker 4: sort of disable that person by holding them down or
Speaker 4: getting them still because of their superior strength and they're
Speaker 4: they're in their unlikelihood of getting hurt, I think that
Speaker 4: we'd be all like, Yeah, if that robot grabbed you
Speaker 4: and held you and then you hurt yourself because you're fighting,
Speaker 4: that's your own.
Speaker 6: Fault, you know what I mean. I mean, I think
Speaker 6: we'd be willing.
Speaker 4: To give them a little leeway because they can actually
Speaker 4: get closer to the criminals than actual police officers can.
Speaker 8: Yeah, if we had a situation where somebody actually died
Speaker 8: in the hands of a robot, what kind of feedback
Speaker 8: would happen. Then what kind of backlash would occurs?
Speaker 3: Another George Floyd situation.
Speaker 8: Where we have overpowering robots that are demanding too much
Speaker 8: of our people. It raises these ethical questions we've just
Speaker 8: not had discussions about yet.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is all Virgin territory.
Speaker 6: And isn't the ethics kind of the hardest part of
Speaker 6: this whole thing?
Speaker 13: Well?
Speaker 8: It is. Is there a regulations that should be in place?
Speaker 8: I think so, but we don't know enough about these
Speaker 8: things yet to know what the regulation should be.
Speaker 4: Well, a lot of my texters are giving you some
Speaker 4: variation of this. Has anyone ever seen the movie Terminator
Speaker 4: or Mandy? I've seen I Robot and Ex Machina. I'm
Speaker 4: good on the robots. But ultimately, you know, we we've
Speaker 4: been scared of things in the past. We used to
Speaker 4: think lightning was the gods that were angry, right, So
Speaker 4: as we as our knowledge has evolved, as we become
Speaker 4: as we've traveled in space, we're less likely to believe that,
Speaker 4: you know, we're gonna have the kind of aliens are
Speaker 4: going to come down and kill us on Independence Day.
Speaker 4: So I think as this stuff starts to roll out,
Speaker 4: because it starts with a rumba, it starts with a
Speaker 4: robotic law.
Speaker 6: One of my neighbors has one of these.
Speaker 4: It doesn't start with fully humanyed robots living in our
Speaker 4: houses full time with skin that was grown in a lab.
Speaker 6: That's not how it gets started.
Speaker 4: So perhaps that will make the adoption a little bit easier.
Speaker 4: But somebody did ask this, Thomas, and I think this
Speaker 4: is an interesting question. They said, what happens when the
Speaker 4: government hacks my robot and can see inside my house?
Speaker 6: Could you, in theory, tell your robot if.
Speaker 4: Anyone tries to change your programming or program you to
Speaker 4: spy on me.
Speaker 6: I need you to let me know right away.
Speaker 4: Would that work with something that simple, in something that
Speaker 4: is constructed to work within a framework, an ethical framework
Speaker 4: that has to be created. With something like that works, say, look,
Speaker 4: if anybody's.
Speaker 6: Trying to inspire on me, I need you to tell me.
Speaker 8: I think one of the core pieces of every one
Speaker 8: of these robots is they need to be the guardian
Speaker 8: of your privacy. They need to be your protector, that
Speaker 8: they're watching out for you more than anybody else's interests.
Speaker 3: And so.
Speaker 8: If we don't have that, then I don't think that
Speaker 8: I don't think they're going to sell many of these robots.
Speaker 8: But if the robot is actually working for you, if
Speaker 8: it's doing everything you wanted to do, then you can
Speaker 8: rely on it. It's trustworthy, something that you can count
Speaker 8: on to help you every day, then it becomes super
Speaker 8: valuable and.
Speaker 4: It would become I would think I would envision this
Speaker 4: as being robots becoming a part of the family, at
Speaker 4: least in the United States of America. In some other
Speaker 4: cultures where they still have servants and things of that nature,
Speaker 4: perhaps they would be treated like a servant. But I
Speaker 4: could see Americans bringing these robots in and having them
Speaker 4: become an extended part of their family.
Speaker 6: Don't you think, Yeah.
Speaker 8: These robots should be your buddy bot. They should be
Speaker 8: your best friend, and you always wish you had something
Speaker 8: that can actually finish your sentences for you and knows
Speaker 8: what you're going to be saying next that you have
Speaker 8: all these good conversations with. I think that's the kind
Speaker 8: of robot people want, and I think the people that
Speaker 8: are designing robots are going to go on that path
Speaker 8: and try to figure out, oh, yeah, this is narrow
Speaker 8: spectrum of things that everybody wants let's try to include
Speaker 8: all of that into this robot.
Speaker 4: Thomas Ry is our futurist. You can find him at
Speaker 4: futurist speaker dot com, Thomas Great Conversation and al Lie
Speaker 4: Awake at night waiting for the robot Uprising. Thanks so
Speaker 4: much for that. All Right, all right, I have a
Speaker 4: good day. We will be right back.
Speaker 6: Mandy.
Speaker 4: Watch Woody Allen's Sleeper for a peek into living with robots.
Speaker 4: Grant is in for a rod today. Have you ever
Speaker 4: seen the Sleeper by Woody Allen? No, have you ever
Speaker 4: really watched Woody Allen movie? Because your age your age
Speaker 4: group only knows Woody Allen for being creepy and marrying
Speaker 4: his stepdaughter.
Speaker 5: Right, that's the only thing other than your former producer
Speaker 5: Dave Lower.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, well, his older movies are absolutely phenomenal. I
Speaker 4: mean some of my favorite movies are old Woody Allen movies.
Speaker 4: The Purple Rose of Cairo, Sleeper is a fantastic movie.
Speaker 4: Zelig is another one. You've got to watch some of
Speaker 4: those older movies, and they're all extremely different.
Speaker 6: I mean they have the kind of minshe you know.
Speaker 4: New York jew kind of movies like Annie Hall where
Speaker 4: New York is as much a character as anything else.
Speaker 4: But his older work is really incredible, just really really incredible.
Speaker 4: And Sleeper such a good movie, so dumb and so
Speaker 4: good at the same time. Do you know the spaceship
Speaker 4: house up on the mountain up there? Yeah, I think
Speaker 4: that's in Sleeper? Oh? Really, maybe is that?
Speaker 6: Let me know what Colorado House? Sleeper, Let's see if
Speaker 6: that's it.
Speaker 4: Sculptured House, also known as the Sleeper House, is the
Speaker 4: house in Genesee. It was featured prominently in the nineteen
Speaker 4: seventy three comedy Sleeper by Woody Allen. And that's where
Speaker 4: the Orgasmatron is. And I'm just gonna let you watch
Speaker 4: the movie to see what that's all about. Yeah, like what, Yeah, Oh,
Speaker 4: it's so funny. It's so, so, so funny. But yeah,
Speaker 4: that would be a fun way to sort of introduce
Speaker 4: yourself to robots.
Speaker 6: There you go.
Speaker 4: A couple of things that I want to get to.
Speaker 4: I have a column on the blog today that I
Speaker 4: just really liked. I follow this substack called the Liberal Patriot,
Speaker 4: and the liberal patriot is people.
Speaker 6: On the left who have a very.
Speaker 4: Clear, a very clear vision from the left, and the
Speaker 4: only way I can describe it is. They're really great
Speaker 4: at having a sort of a third party vision. They
Speaker 4: write very interesting critiques of the left, and they often
Speaker 4: talk more about the left and what needs to happen
Speaker 4: on the left than they do the right, because these
Speaker 4: are leftists that write these columns, but they're not like
Speaker 4: crazy wackadoodle hardcore lefties that are out there, and they're
Speaker 4: very good. And they wrote a column called Election Day
Speaker 4: to do List, and the first one is remember to
Speaker 4: thank your local poll workers and election officials. That should
Speaker 4: be so easy, and then they go on to talk
Speaker 4: about steer clear of partisan propaganda. I've been telling you
Speaker 4: that for the last week. Anything that happens in the
Speaker 4: seven days before the election, just turn it off. Turn
Speaker 4: it off because it's probably a lie. Find a few
Speaker 4: trustworthy voices on social media and other sites to follow
Speaker 4: for confirmed information, actual vote results, and honest analysis.
Speaker 6: Now, can we talk about tonight for a moment.
Speaker 4: Tonight, we have a great team for our election coverage
Speaker 4: starting at six pm. Ryan Dueling's going to be in,
Speaker 4: Ben Albright's going to be in during election coverage. I
Speaker 4: hate doing election coverage. I'm going to be perfectly honest
Speaker 4: because results are usually only updated every half hour, so
Speaker 4: you end up sitting here twiddling your thumbs for a
Speaker 4: really long time. That being said, I do think we're
Speaker 4: going to get pretty quickly the information about the initiatives
Speaker 4: and the amendments and all of those propositions.
Speaker 6: I think those are going to come in pretty quick.
Speaker 4: So if you want to listen up for a while,
Speaker 4: hear what's happening in the state of Colorado, and then
Speaker 4: I have a suggestion for you, And it's going to
Speaker 4: sound really counterintuitive, but do what I do. Go to
Speaker 4: bed at your normal time because you staying up until
Speaker 4: midnight one o'clock two am waiting for these election results
Speaker 4: is not going to change them. So I will be
Speaker 4: on the show tonight. I'm going to be broadcasting from
Speaker 4: my house, probably in my jammis. I don't know, maybe
Speaker 4: you won't know either. I'll sound clothed, fully clothed. But
Speaker 4: then I go to bed at a reasonable hour because
Speaker 4: we're not gonna I mean, unless it is a landslide
Speaker 4: in either direction, we're probably not going to know the
Speaker 4: presidential results tonight. Now, if it's a landslide in either direction,
Speaker 4: then then that would be fine. And is anybody else
Speaker 4: hoping for a landslide. I'm hoping for a landslide in
Speaker 4: either direction. Let me clarify that I don't want Kamil
Speaker 4: a Heers to win. But if she wins, please God,
Speaker 4: don't let it be close. Please God, let it be
Speaker 4: a landslide so we don't have to hear about cheating
Speaker 4: and lying and all.
Speaker 6: Of that stuff.
Speaker 4: But if it's a landslide for Trump, oh my goodness,
Speaker 4: you guys, some of the people in the media, if
Speaker 4: it's a landslide for Trump, like, we're gonna need to
Speaker 4: check on them tomorrow and make sure that they're not suicidal.
Speaker 4: Because I made the terrible choice yesterday of turning on
Speaker 4: MSNBC for like ten minutes. These people genuinely believe that
Speaker 4: they are fighting Hitler, that if they don't convince their
Speaker 4: people to vote Democratic, then on Wednesday or Thursday of
Speaker 4: this week, all women are going to be required to
Speaker 4: report to work wearing their handmade Tales costumes. I don't
Speaker 4: even have one. For the record, I'm gonna have to
Speaker 4: go out and buy one. Ooh, grant business idea. Let's
Speaker 4: make handmaid Tale costumes if all women are.
Speaker 6: Going to need them.
Speaker 4: I think we've got that may be a big money maker.
Speaker 4: Let me think you think we're gonna make some money
Speaker 4: off of that.
Speaker 6: You know what, why not?
Speaker 4: If I'm look, if the country's going to go on
Speaker 4: a toilet, I want to find out how to make.
Speaker 6: As much money as possible. We'll exactly.
Speaker 4: I'm okay, I can get on board with that exactly.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean I could only stand it for
Speaker 4: like six or seven minutes, and then I was like,
Speaker 4: I can't watch this. I read an article. I didn't
Speaker 4: put it on the blog because it wasn't that interesting,
Speaker 4: but it was sort of interesting and that this person,
Speaker 4: and I think it was in the Free Press, went
Speaker 4: and talked to a bunch of undecided voters who had
Speaker 4: previously been what they call politically homeless their independence. They
Speaker 4: may be socially liberal but very conservative fiscally. And they
Speaker 4: were asking these people who they were voting for. And
Speaker 4: what was interesting was everybody that was voting for Kamala
Speaker 4: Harris essentially was I can't vote for Trump, I'm voting
Speaker 4: for her. The people that said I'm voting for Trump said,
Speaker 4: I'm voting for Trump because I'm worried about the border.
Speaker 4: I don't want unfettered immigration. I need to work on inflation.
Speaker 4: We've got to bring prices down. There were very specific
Speaker 4: reasons for voting for Trump, and not specific reasons other
Speaker 4: than not Trump for voting for Kamala Harris. Now is
Speaker 4: that enough? Is that enough to bring people out? I
Speaker 4: don't know.
Speaker 6: We shall see. Ross made a good point earlier.
Speaker 4: Do not get married to the early returns because depending
Speaker 4: on how states count the ballots some state some states
Speaker 4: count the mail in ballots early, right before the regular
Speaker 4: Some states cannot start counting those until late. So depending
Speaker 4: on who shows up with the polls who in their ballot,
Speaker 4: that can shift dramatically, especially in swing state. So if
Speaker 4: you go to bed tonight at nine o'clock and Republicans
Speaker 4: are taking anything, don't get married to that.
Speaker 6: You could wake up in the morning and.
Speaker 4: It could just be that the ballots that were finally
Speaker 4: counted came from Democratic strongholds and now they've taken the lead.
Speaker 4: So don't get too caught up in the early returns.
Speaker 4: Don't get too celebratory in the early returns.
Speaker 2: Just do what I.
Speaker 4: Did, Watch as long as you want, and then go
Speaker 4: to bed, and when you wake up, maybe in the morning,
Speaker 4: we'll have a new president. But guess what, regardless of
Speaker 4: who it is, the United States.
Speaker 6: Of America will survive.
Speaker 4: That I am certain of, and I'm really not certain
Speaker 4: of anything else in this election, Mandy, I'm hoping for
Speaker 4: a Grover Cleveland repeat.
Speaker 2: Great.
Speaker 6: How much do you know about Grover Cleveland?
Speaker 4: Almost nothing? Two time president of the United States of America.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he did have a good mustache. Interesting guy.
Speaker 4: I've read a little bit about Grover Cleveland because he
Speaker 4: was a money hawk.
Speaker 6: He was a Democrat, but he.
Speaker 4: Didn't like a lot of things that the Democrats were
Speaker 4: doing at the time, and he was defeated by h B.
Speaker 4: Bo Bo Bah William Henry Harrison Benjamin Harrison excuse me wrong, Harrison,
Speaker 4: and then got back into office four years later because
Speaker 4: Harrison got into office and did all these dumb things
Speaker 4: that hurt the money supply and he was re elected.
Speaker 6: So yeah. By the way, the eighteen ninety.
Speaker 4: Two election was, according to Cleveland biographer Alan Nevins, the cleanest, quietest,
Speaker 4: and most creditable in the memory of the post war generation.
Speaker 4: That was because Harrison's wife was dying of tuberculosis.
Speaker 6: Harrison did not campaign at all, so listen to this.
Speaker 4: Could you imagine this happening now? Grant, listen to this.
Speaker 4: Following Carolyn Harrison's death on October twenty fifth, to weeks
Speaker 4: before the national election, Cleveland and all of the other
Speaker 4: candidates stopped campaigning, thus making election day a somber and
Speaker 4: quiet event for the whole country as well as the candidates. Wow,
Speaker 4: people had respects.
Speaker 6: Yeah, can you imagine?
Speaker 4: What is that? I mean, gosh, they actually felt bad
Speaker 4: for the guy when his wife died.
Speaker 5: You know, that does kind of remind me of the
Speaker 5: moment and the VP debate when Tim Waltz was talking
Speaker 5: about his kid being in the school shooting and Jajie
Speaker 5: Vance actually took a moment to be human and be like, wow,
Speaker 5: I never knew that.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry to hear about Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it turns
Speaker 4: out that wasn't quite true, but whatever was right the
Speaker 4: delement of it. Yeah, no, I get what you were saying.
Speaker 4: I mean, the Jdvans Tim Wall's debate was full of
Speaker 4: so much I agree with you. You know, it was almost shocking, shocking,
Speaker 4: So thanks Texter. I'm now going to go read the
Speaker 4: book on Grover Cleveland that has been taunting me for
Speaker 4: my bookshelf for about four years. I believe Davey Intrepid
Speaker 4: gave it to me, so I'll go back and check
Speaker 4: that out. I had no idea, Mandy, I still love this.
Speaker 4: When I die, I want to be buried in Chicago
Speaker 4: so I can still vote there.
Speaker 7: You go.
Speaker 4: Uh, not sure if you know this, But I can't
Speaker 4: get koa on iHeart pl up your iHeart app. Grant
Speaker 4: see if we're working, sometimes you have to close the
Speaker 4: app and start over. It just gets kind of buggy sometimes, Hi, man,
Speaker 4: dagget to listen to you every once in a while.
Speaker 6: I'm out and about during the middle of the day.
Speaker 4: But grew up democratic lean more towards the middle and
Speaker 4: into the right on certain things, but I'm also left
Speaker 4: on some things. What you just sent the past seen
Speaker 4: minutes to the past ten minutes is perfect.
Speaker 6: Do your normal things. We will all survive this.
Speaker 4: There needs to be more voices for the people in
Speaker 4: the middle of the bell curve, not the extreme voices
Speaker 4: you hear on the right and the left. I I
Speaker 4: that is a sentiment that I agree with so wholeheartedly,
Speaker 4: but I'm hopeless about it actually happening. Because if you
Speaker 4: look on social media. Social media is exacerbated, and it's
Speaker 4: not social media's fault. This is a human nature thing
Speaker 4: that is simply found a new vehicle to be awful. Right.
Speaker 4: If you want to see people who are successful in
Speaker 4: political social media, they are the flamethrowers. They're the ones
Speaker 4: putting out content that is designed to make people angry,
Speaker 4: that is designed.
Speaker 6: To fire people up. They love to argue, they love
Speaker 6: to go back and.
Speaker 4: Forth, and all of those clicks and views and likes
Speaker 4: and whatever, they're all monetizable. And that is we've now
Speaker 4: monetized bad behavior. You know, before, when I was a kid,
Speaker 4: if you acted the fool, you wouldn't make any money
Speaker 4: because you were acting the full. Now people act the
Speaker 4: full professionally, and they're making money hand over fist. You know,
Speaker 4: any person in this country that thinks that we are
Speaker 4: somehow going to get a handle on rampant pornography, you
Speaker 4: need to understand there are people on OnlyFans making eight
Speaker 4: hundred thousand.
Speaker 6: Dollars or more a month.
Speaker 5: I can't remember who it was, but I was reading
Speaker 5: about this musician the other day who quit making music
Speaker 5: and is only selling beat pictures and making ten times
Speaker 5: as much more money.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 5: By the way, the iHeart app working just fine.
Speaker 6: Yep, it's going to be okay.
Speaker 4: Coming from someone who can afford groceries, yes, I can
Speaker 4: afford groceries. But I'm here to tell you that, first
Speaker 4: of all, economic issues are cyclical. That is just a fact.
Speaker 4: Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. I have
Speaker 4: been the bug. I have been the windshield. The windshield
Speaker 4: is better, by the way. But what I'm saying is
Speaker 4: all of these people who view this election as some
Speaker 4: kind of existential crisis are wrong. They are wrong. I
Speaker 4: believe in the people of the United States of America.
Speaker 4: I believe in us. We're gonna be fine. It's all
Speaker 4: gonna be okay when we get back. I've got I'm
Speaker 4: gonna do the two minute drill today because i got
Speaker 4: a lot of stuff on the blog, but I've also
Speaker 4: got some really interesting stuff, including speaking of porn.
Speaker 6: Porn has gone full maga. I'll explain next.
Speaker 1: The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock
Speaker 1: Accident and injury Lawyers.
Speaker 7: No, it's Mandy Connell Mandy Ton on Kola AM ninety
Speaker 7: one FM.
Speaker 11: So goday can the ninety's through three Mandy Connell keeping
Speaker 11: sad thing.
Speaker 2: The two minute drill at two.
Speaker 7: Hey, we're going too minute warrants, repping fires, stories of
Speaker 7: the day that we don't have more time.
Speaker 2: For play mark triple one. Let's call this will take
Speaker 2: longer than two minutes.
Speaker 3: Are are you?
Speaker 2: Here's Mandy Condles All right, my friends.
Speaker 4: Christian Toto has a fantastic column about the Daily Wires
Speaker 4: movie with Matt Walsh called Ami Racist. This little documentary
Speaker 4: earned north of twelve million dollars in its theatrical debut.
Speaker 4: The only fact based film Bears that scored higher in
Speaker 4: nineteen twenty fourteen, was about Bears. Now, what this proofs,
Speaker 4: according to Christian's column, is that conservatives.
Speaker 6: Do not need Hollywood.
Speaker 4: The Daily Wire went outside the structure of Hollywood to
Speaker 4: make Ami racist, and they continue to make it as
Speaker 4: it is still available by subscribers on the Daily Wire
Speaker 4: dot com.
Speaker 6: Now you have to understand some of.
Speaker 4: The biggest documentary makers in the world are only making
Speaker 4: one hundred and eight thousand dollars. That's from Rob Reiner
Speaker 4: on God and Country, an anti Trump film. Now here's
Speaker 4: the other thing. How did they promote Ami racist? They
Speaker 4: didn't go on the Tonight Show or the Late Night
Speaker 4: with Seth Myers. They went on The Megan Kelly Show,
Speaker 4: the Joe Rogan Experience. Rogan actually said it was one
Speaker 4: of the best comedies he's ever seen. This is good
Speaker 4: news because we know that the capture of the Democratic
Speaker 4: the Democratic Party of Hollywood is absolutely complete. Just look
Speaker 4: at all the people that were at all the p
Speaker 4: Diddies parties and are now endorsing Kamala Harris. Their decision
Speaker 4: making is suspect. I'm just saying, great column by Christian
Speaker 4: You should read it on the blog today. Hey, Grant,
Speaker 4: remember that Algerian boxer that we were told we weren't
Speaker 4: allowed to question whether or not he should be in
Speaker 4: the ring with women. Yes, and because we were told
Speaker 4: that he is a woman and he has woman parts
Speaker 4: and we need to shut up the transphobe. But the
Speaker 4: reality is Algerian boxer Iman Khalif is not a woman.
Speaker 6: A medical report revealed.
Speaker 4: That Khalif has testicles and a micro penis and guess
Speaker 4: what xy chromosomes? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it gets even better.
Speaker 4: Apparently there's a condition called five alpha reductaste deficiency, a
Speaker 4: disorder of sexual development that is only found in biological males.
Speaker 4: And if you guess that this boxer has that condition,
Speaker 4: you guessed right now. What's interesting about this to me
Speaker 4: is that this person should not have been boxing against
Speaker 4: women in the first place. And I want to know
Speaker 4: what the IOC is going to do now that we
Speaker 4: know that this person was a bio logical male competing
Speaker 4: against women. We must stop the madness in women's sports
Speaker 4: before someone gets killed boxing an.
Speaker 6: Algerian guy in the ring.
Speaker 4: It too so a thirty one year old woman who
Speaker 4: was recently diagnosed with colon cancer decided to talk about it.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 4: The headline here is a little I think, kind of dumb.
Speaker 4: This thirty one year old woman shared the subtle signs
Speaker 4: that she had colon cancer. Guys and gals, if you
Speaker 4: consistently see blood in your stool, something is wrong. Go
Speaker 4: see your doctor.
Speaker 6: The darker the blood, the worse it is.
Speaker 4: If it's bright red blood, it could be from something
Speaker 4: as simple as a hemorrhoid. But if it is dark blood,
Speaker 4: it is coming out of your body, and that is
Speaker 4: a serious, serious sign that you need to go to
Speaker 4: the doctor. She said. Over the last three years, she
Speaker 4: was experiencing digestive issues that she thought were due to ibs,
Speaker 4: but then she started to have really high anxiety and
Speaker 4: felt really really tired. But it was the blood in
Speaker 4: the stool that finally made her go to the doctor,
Speaker 4: where she found out she has colon cancer. Colon cancer
Speaker 4: has been seen in younger and younger people on a
Speaker 4: regular basis. If you have a family history of colon cancer,
Speaker 4: or you have any of the signs of colon cancer,
Speaker 4: don't let a doctor tell you it's nothing. Get a
Speaker 4: colonoscomy and find out for yourself.
Speaker 2: The drill it too great.
Speaker 4: You ever done the winter Park ski train? I know
Speaker 4: you love to go up there and skiing, not half park,
Speaker 4: but I think I'm going to this here. Well, you
Speaker 4: can buy cheap tickets right now there as low as
Speaker 4: nineteen dollars and they are running I think five days
Speaker 4: a week and service starts on service begin.
Speaker 6: That can't be right.
Speaker 4: The service will begin five days a week on Thursday,
Speaker 4: January nights twenty twenty five. That's not right.
Speaker 6: That is a that is not the right date. It
Speaker 6: starts before that.
Speaker 4: There's expanded holiday service during the Christmas holiday, service continues
Speaker 4: to March thirty first.
Speaker 6: Depending on when you want to go. You can buy.
Speaker 4: Tickets for as low as nineteen dollars. The train leaves
Speaker 4: from Denver at seven am and gets to the resort
Speaker 4: about nine and leaves winter Park at four thirty to
Speaker 4: return to Denver at six forty.
Speaker 6: So there you go.
Speaker 4: All the info on the blog except for the right
Speaker 4: start day, which I don't think I have.
Speaker 2: Rill it too, guys.
Speaker 4: I just want to give big ups to Heidi Klume.
Speaker 4: Heidi Club is the ageist warrior all women needed.
Speaker 8: Now.
Speaker 6: Granted we don't look like Heidi Klume.
Speaker 4: I don't have any illusions, but at fifty five, I
Speaker 4: look remotely as good as Heidi Klume looks. But Heidi
Speaker 4: Klume likes to show her body off. She likes to
Speaker 4: go out and skippy outfit. She likes to go out topless,
Speaker 4: not like in public, but like on beaches and stuff.
Speaker 4: And she says, look, I'm not shy about my femininity.
Speaker 4: I love dressing up where I have my cleavage, showing,
Speaker 4: wearing mini skirts, high heels, gorgeous stockings. But that doesn't
Speaker 4: mean I want to go home with you. She continued,
Speaker 4: sharing that it's just her personality. Why not I want
Speaker 4: to have fun and show my body. But I do
Speaker 4: have boundaries, as do all women. It should be okay
Speaker 4: to wear a miniskirt if you're fifty one, if you
Speaker 4: look good in a mini skirt when you're fifty one. Now, Grant,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna save my last story on the two minute
Speaker 4: drill to the other side because we're out of time
Speaker 4: and I want to talk about this one. I'm not
Speaker 4: gonna say you can go ahead and bring the music
Speaker 4: down and hit the little last what whistles whatever that
Speaker 4: last thing is. I don't know what that thing is
Speaker 4: in there. Another restaurant chain is filed for bankruptcy. Grant,
Speaker 4: you're young and enthusiastic, you out and do things. When
Speaker 4: was the last time you set foot in a TGI Friday's.
Speaker 5: I poof, maybe like fifteen years ago.
Speaker 6: Well, it's your fault. They did serve bankruptcy the TGI Friday's.
Speaker 4: Out of all of those genres of restaurants, probably my
Speaker 4: least favorite. We were an Applebee's family. Well, can I
Speaker 4: just say, And then, honestly, I'm glad you brought up
Speaker 4: Applebee's because when I saw this story about TGIF and
Speaker 4: we're gonna get into this a little bit more after
Speaker 4: the break. When I saw it, I thought, well, they
Speaker 4: got to get a country singer to make a song
Speaker 4: about them, because I genuinely believe that fancy like Applebee's. Yes,
Speaker 4: I think fancy like Applebee's help that chain recover because
Speaker 4: they were They were like on the on the ropes
Speaker 4: Applebee's were, and then all of a sudden, fancy like
Speaker 4: Applebee's comes out and everybody's like, you know what, I'm
Speaker 4: going to Applebee's. When people ask me where I'm from,
Speaker 4: I always say, have you ever heard the song fancy
Speaker 4: like Applebee's. That's where I'm from. Those are my people
Speaker 4: with the squeaky cooler in the back of the truck,
Speaker 4: Those are my people. You know.
Speaker 6: They don't even really sell.
Speaker 4: Those squeaky coolers anymore.
Speaker 6: You have to buy cardboard coolers.
Speaker 13: What is that?
Speaker 4: What is a cardboard cooler.
Speaker 6: Supposed to accomplish?
Speaker 4: Wouldn't that just melt?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 4: I don't know. Apparently they figured something out. I've never
Speaker 4: I'm not I am y the styrofoam squeaky coolers. I
Speaker 4: haven't seen those in forever. They're bad for the environment.
Speaker 4: Grant they're bad for the environment. They're good at beer
Speaker 4: cool exactly, and they float. So if you're tubing down
Speaker 4: a river, you got a styrofoam cooler, it just floats
Speaker 4: right down the river with you. But if you've got
Speaker 4: a a cardboard cooler, what is that? The three little
Speaker 4: pigs trying to come up with a way to keep
Speaker 4: their beer cold.
Speaker 6: We'll be right back.
Speaker 4: We're going to continue the devastating story of the TGI
Speaker 4: Friday bankruptcy right after this, We're going to get to.
Speaker 6: The TJA Friday's story.
Speaker 4: But I just saw something on the break that I have.
Speaker 6: To share with you.
Speaker 4: So someone went in and grabbed a bunch of clips
Speaker 4: of CNN and MSNBC panelists, and they took ai and
Speaker 4: replaced every mention of our democracy with our bureaucracy.
Speaker 6: And you've just got to hear this, great, Can I
Speaker 6: have my computer?
Speaker 4: Thank you? If the Democrats fail, it might be the
Speaker 4: end of American bureaucracy.
Speaker 8: Now, our bureaucracy really is in fundamental peril. The foundations
Speaker 8: of American bureaucracy under attack.
Speaker 4: They want to destroy our bureaucracy. We are at bureaucracy
Speaker 4: and danger.
Speaker 12: We're watching an election where people are on the ballot
Speaker 12: openly advocating the end of bureaucracy. That's what Republicans are doing,
Speaker 12: attacking bureaucracy, attempting to destroy bureaucracy, and they're doing it
Speaker 12: with glee.
Speaker 15: This is the end of bureaucracy in America.
Speaker 8: When will America stop sleepwalking towards the end of bureaucracy.
Speaker 4: It's Democrats versus as Bill Crystal says, the end of bureaucracy.
Speaker 5: We are essentially, as Neil put it, one vote away
Speaker 5: from the end of bureaucracy as we know it.
Speaker 8: I think our bureaucracy and the stability of that bureaucracy
Speaker 8: is really the thing on the ballot and really so important.
Speaker 4: That my friends is so accurate it's scary. I would
Speaker 4: love to vote for the end of the bureaucracy, wouldn't you?
Speaker 6: By the way, that put that on my Twitter feed.
Speaker 4: If you follow me on Twitter at Mandy Connell, and
Speaker 4: remember my conversation from earlier, always follow your favorite talk
Speaker 4: shows on social media just in case we're not here
Speaker 4: one day. I'm just saying TGI Fridays has filed for
Speaker 4: bankruptcy protection. It's looking for ways to ensure the long
Speaker 4: term viability of the casual dining brand. He's already closed
Speaker 4: a bunch of branches. And they said, look, the primary
Speaker 4: driver of our challenges resulted from COVID nineteen and our
Speaker 4: capital structure.
Speaker 6: And here's the thing.
Speaker 4: We've got red Lobster in reorganization right now. We got
Speaker 4: a lot of big restaurant chains really in trouble right now.
Speaker 4: And I'm here to say, does anybody else still miss Bennigans?
Speaker 4: Did you ever even go to a Benigans? Were they
Speaker 4: still a thing when you were young?
Speaker 2: Grant?
Speaker 6: Did you have the experience where.
Speaker 4: The server walks up to your table and drops the
Speaker 4: thirty pound menu in front of you.
Speaker 6: Yes, we are now flipping through the pages.
Speaker 4: It did not survive in our hometown. Oh God, I
Speaker 4: miss Bennigans. It was so good. No matter what anybody
Speaker 4: was in the mood for it, they had it at Bennigans.
Speaker 6: And they were the ones that made.
Speaker 4: The Monte Cristo sandwich famous. Hey, let's make a club
Speaker 4: sandwich and then batter it and deep fry it, cut
Speaker 4: it into four pieces, and serve it with ways Mary
Speaker 4: jam Yes, please, we used to order that as an
Speaker 4: appetizer for four of us. Everybody got a square.
Speaker 6: You can't eat the whole thing.
Speaker 4: If you ate a whole money, Cristo, you literally stood up,
Speaker 4: had a heart attack and died right there. Nobody. I
Speaker 4: just I miss it. I want it back. I heard
Speaker 4: Steak and Ale was coming back too. I loved Steak
Speaker 4: and Ale when I was young. It was oh my gosh,
Speaker 4: oh my gosh, Steak and Ale.
Speaker 6: They all had a vibe grant.
Speaker 4: It was like they always had a big fireplace that
Speaker 4: always had a fire and I lived in Florida. They
Speaker 4: had a fireplace. It was magic. They had their fireplace
Speaker 4: and everything was kind of dark, and they had like
Speaker 4: those pewter mugs that you could.
Speaker 6: Get beer in.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 4: It was very ah huzzah kind of place, and the
Speaker 4: food was really good, and it was just nice enough
Speaker 4: so that like you could go there on a date
Speaker 4: and you would tell your friends like, oh my god,
Speaker 4: it took me to Steak and Ale. Wow. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 4: I mean in college when a date was, hey, let's
Speaker 4: go to free beer Thursday, like that was like a
Speaker 4: big deal. So some of these restaurant chains I have
Speaker 4: so much fondness for. And I heard Denny's is in trouble.
Speaker 4: That doesn't surprise me. O. My hammy remains one of
Speaker 4: the greatest breakfast sandwiches ever created in the restaurant industry.
Speaker 4: Moon's Over, My Moon's Over, My Hammi ham and cheese,
Speaker 4: grilled cheese with scrambled eggs in it. Right, Yeah, perfect.
Speaker 4: There's never been a better breakfast sandwich in the history
Speaker 4: of breakfast sandwiches for real. And now Danny's is in trouble.
Speaker 4: But you know here's the thing. I don't really drink anymore,
Speaker 4: So why am I going to go to Denny's. Yeah?
Speaker 4: I mean the only time we ever went was it
Speaker 4: like two am in Orlando. There was a Denny's right
Speaker 4: near our house and at about two thirty the joint
Speaker 4: was jumping, and I mean two thirty am, not two
Speaker 4: thirty pm, and.
Speaker 6: It was like wild.
Speaker 4: The club opened up.
Speaker 6: And everybody ended up at Denny's. It was oh so good,
Speaker 6: so so good.
Speaker 12: So good.
Speaker 4: Mandy. I may have died three or four times after
Speaker 4: eating the money Crystal on my twenties. No, you can
Speaker 4: have it in your twenties when you're still young and vigorous.
Speaker 4: Once you hit thirty, that hard atacks coming exactly. Death
Speaker 4: by Chocolate, the best dessert ever At Bennigan's first date
Speaker 4: with the wife was at ben Against back in the nineties.
Speaker 4: They had all day Happy Hour two. I'm being reminded
Speaker 4: of all this stuff from our texters. I'm not the
Speaker 4: only one I loved Bennigans. So anyway, we shall see.
Speaker 4: Bubble thirty three in the Springs has an outstanding Monte Cristo. Huh,
Speaker 4: all of you maniacs saying you ate the whole thing
Speaker 4: the Monte Cristo, Like.
Speaker 6: How are you even still alive right now? Golly, it was.
Speaker 4: So good ben agin'st pretzel, bun ham and cheese. It
Speaker 4: was all so good. Bring it back. Bring it back, everybody,
Speaker 4: just bring it back.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 4: When I get back, I want to talk about a
Speaker 4: couple of things. One, you need to go see the
Speaker 4: blog today. I realize I haven't really talked about the election.
Speaker 4: I'll explain why when I get back. Andy, who just
Speaker 4: texted me the email of Benegans dot com. And I
Speaker 4: just found out that there is a Bennigan's about a
Speaker 4: six hour drive away, and I will be making a
Speaker 4: field trip. Luckily, my sister lives down in Amarillo, Texas,
Speaker 4: and there's one just outside of Amarillo, and I'm going
Speaker 4: they've got the Monte Cristo. They got Death by Chocolate.
Speaker 4: Maybe we should be like, do you think we should
Speaker 4: we should rent a bus, Grant, we should do like a.
Speaker 6: Full day venture. I'll drive where we get.
Speaker 4: No, we're gonna get a bus because that way we
Speaker 4: can all have one of those Bennigans cocktails, you know
Speaker 4: what I mean. And we'll just take a six hour
Speaker 4: road trip to go down to Vanagins and then we'll
Speaker 4: just come right back by morning Bennigans by me. Well done.
Speaker 6: I was a good one, Grant. That was a really,
Speaker 6: really really good one.
Speaker 4: Okay, let's talk about election stress for the last segment
Speaker 4: of the show.
Speaker 6: During the show.
Speaker 4: Today, I've gotten text messages from friends across the country,
Speaker 4: from across the political spectrum, and.
Speaker 6: I mean, it's kind of funny.
Speaker 4: My friends on left are are far more like freaking out.
Speaker 4: Just um about to have a panic attack, Please don't.
Speaker 4: Seventy seven percent of US adults are feeling anxious about
Speaker 4: the direction the country has headed. Sixty nine percent are
Speaker 4: worried about the election that According to a new survey
Speaker 4: from the American Psychological Association, this year has been even
Speaker 4: more polarizing the previous years. As we spend more and
Speaker 4: more time using smartphones and social media. Most of that anxiety,
Speaker 4: and this is the point I want you to remember,
Speaker 4: comes from the unknown.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 4: One of the things that I'm very good at, and
Speaker 4: this is uh kind of my natural disposition, and it's
Speaker 4: a stoic position. Now, if you have not studied stoicism
Speaker 4: with any real uh, you know, enthusiasm, for me, it
Speaker 4: breaks down to one simple principle, pretty much like you
Speaker 4: can just pretty much stoic your way through this, and
Speaker 4: that is, if you can't control it, don't worry about it.
Speaker 4: I've already done my part. I cast my ballot. I
Speaker 4: made sure that my friends and family voted.
Speaker 6: That's all I can do. Whoever wins or loses at.
Speaker 4: This point is completely out of my hands. It's a
Speaker 4: very liberating way to look at it.
Speaker 13: Right.
Speaker 4: So I was not kidding when I said tonight, I'm
Speaker 4: gonna go bed. I'm gonna go to bed about the
Speaker 4: same time I always go to bed, nine thirty ten.
Speaker 4: Because we won't know the president, and we're not gonna
Speaker 4: know them probably I don't even know.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Depends on how quickly these democratic cities can get their
Speaker 4: act together and actually count ballots. In a timely fashion
Speaker 4: like the Republican cities can. I'm throwing shade there because
Speaker 4: it's deserved. But I can't control who wins. I can't
Speaker 4: control anything about it. I can sit on the radio
Speaker 4: and tell you guys what I think can urge you
Speaker 4: to vote the way I want you to vote, and
Speaker 4: I don't.
Speaker 6: Even really do that.
Speaker 4: I just try to present the issues and why I
Speaker 4: think one way makes more sense than the other. But
Speaker 4: ultimately my e go does not lead me to believe
Speaker 4: that I am more effective than I am, because I
Speaker 4: honestly believe. I honestly believe no matter who wins, whether
Speaker 4: it's Kamala Harris, whether it's Donald Trump, we're.
Speaker 6: Going to be okay.
Speaker 4: And let me tell you why if it's Kamala Harris
Speaker 4: and Republicans keep the House or at least have a
Speaker 4: large enough presence in the House and the Senate to
Speaker 4: stop any really dumb ass ideas that she has. I
Speaker 4: don't think that even Democrats think that Kamala Harris will
Speaker 4: be in charge if she is president. And on the
Speaker 4: other side, if you're worried about Trump getting elected and
Speaker 4: running roughshod over all of our norms, the left wing
Speaker 4: capture of the bureaucracy of Washington, d C will never
Speaker 4: allow that to happen. If Trump wins, I fully expect
Speaker 4: Democrats to begin their new resistance movement. I'm sure they
Speaker 4: will gin up a whole bunch of new fake accusations,
Speaker 4: although they don't have the Clinton campaign to help them
Speaker 4: without this time. And I'm sure we're gonna see more
Speaker 4: gridlock going forward. And guys, gals, gridlock is good for
Speaker 4: the American people. Gridlock where no team has an overarching
Speaker 4: majority is good for the American people. So don't stress
Speaker 4: about it. Stop feeling anxious about it. We're gonna be
Speaker 4: okay tomorrow. When we get in your tomorrow morning, I'm
Speaker 4: gonna get up, I'm gonna get ready for work. We're
Speaker 4: gonna talk about the results of all the ballot initiatives.
Speaker 4: Here's the kicker about this whole conversation, the ballot initiatives
Speaker 4: that we voted on. No matter where you are, there
Speaker 4: are so many ballot initiatives. All of those are far
Speaker 4: more consequential in your life than who is president of
Speaker 4: the United States. We should not be this invested in
Speaker 4: who the president is. What we've allowed the federal government
Speaker 4: to get so powerful that we believe, rightfully so that
Speaker 4: who is leading the federal government is critically important to
Speaker 4: our lives. Now, how's it gonna make a difference in
Speaker 4: our daily lives. I'm interested to see if the economic
Speaker 4: team around Donald Trump can get him to shy away
Speaker 4: from embracing some of the stuff that he's talking about
Speaker 4: that I think is going to be very detrimental to
Speaker 4: the economy. Unfortunately, I'm left. I don't see many people
Speaker 4: that are going to work on lowering spending.
Speaker 6: But currently.
Speaker 4: We're spending out of control like drunken monkeys no matter
Speaker 4: who's in charge. Do any of you Trump supporters, like
Speaker 4: hardcores I heard Trump supporters, do you still believe that
Speaker 4: he cares about the deficit?
Speaker 6: Because in twenty sixteen, when I.
Speaker 4: Sat here and said, Donald Trump does not care about
Speaker 4: the deficit and he will blow it up. And I've
Speaker 4: been a deficit hawk my entire adult life. I got
Speaker 4: that from my dad, because my dad spent a lot
Speaker 4: of time explaining to me why deficit spending is bad,
Speaker 4: not just now, but even worse in the future. And
Speaker 4: he was right. And I had Trump supporters say, oh,
Speaker 4: he's gonna tame the he's going to bring the dead
Speaker 4: under control. And there was literally nothing that the man
Speaker 4: said that would lead me to that conclusion. So in
Speaker 4: terms of our government spending, I don't think it's six
Speaker 4: of one, half dozen of another between these two candidates.
Speaker 4: So tomorrow morning, when you wake up and you go
Speaker 4: to get your kids ready, or you get ready to
Speaker 4: go to work and you get in your car, who
Speaker 4: is president isn't going to affect any of that. The
Speaker 4: ballot initiatives you're voting on that's going to have a
Speaker 4: far greater impact on people here in this state. So
Speaker 4: you know, we're gonna watch those. I think all of
Speaker 4: those will have those results tonight, most of them. There
Speaker 4: might be a few outliers that are really close. Let's
Speaker 4: stop stressing about this because you can't change it. You
Speaker 4: can't fix it. You can participate, and you should. I
Speaker 4: have a great column on the blog from the Free
Speaker 4: Press today, and if you haven't subscribed to the Free
Speaker 4: Press yet, you really should.
Speaker 6: They're doing great journalism.
Speaker 4: But this particular column was written by a woman who
Speaker 4: grew up in Russia. She just became an American citizen,
Speaker 4: so she gets to vote in her first election as
Speaker 4: a US citizen, and I want you to read you
Speaker 4: what she said, not the whole thing because it's long,
Speaker 4: just a little snippet she said. I won't pretend to
Speaker 4: be thrilled about the candidates in this race. Neither Kamala
Speaker 4: Harris nor Donald Trump inspire particular enthusiasm as me as
Speaker 4: the next leader of the free world. But as anyone
Speaker 4: who's lived under an autocratic regime can tell you, there's
Speaker 4: a world of difference between a poor choice and none
Speaker 4: at all. Americans who complain about how long it takes
Speaker 4: after the election to determine the winner should try learning
Speaker 4: the results.
Speaker 6: Before reaching the voting booth.
Speaker 4: The fact that no one genuinely knows the next occupant
Speaker 4: of the White House until after the ballots are counted
Speaker 4: is a marvel of the American system. It means, on
Speaker 4: the most fundamental level, that those ballots and the voices
Speaker 4: behind them still count. Some may contend that those ballots
Speaker 4: only count in a handful of swing states, and then
Speaker 4: in deep blue states like New York, where I live.
Speaker 4: A typical ballot holds as much power to change the
Speaker 4: outcome as it would in Moscow. But a predictable outcome
Speaker 4: does not mean a predetermined one. New York stays blue
Speaker 4: because most New Yorkers vote blue, not because the results
Speaker 4: are decided by others. And that's the point. An obvious
Speaker 4: as it is underappreciated. The purpose of voting is not only,
Speaker 4: or perhaps even primarily, to get your preferred candidate into office.
Speaker 4: It's about the functioning of the system itself. We must participate.
Speaker 4: The system isn't perfect. I'm hoping that this entire debacle
Speaker 4: with Jennie Griswold is going to take us to a
Speaker 4: place where we can have conversations about real election integrity
Speaker 4: and real vote security. We have a story in Keenan
Speaker 4: had it earlier in his news about an adult daycare
Speaker 4: center where ballots were suspiciously returned where the signatures did
Speaker 4: not match the person casting the ballot, and now the
Speaker 4: DA is investigating. The only way to ensure, to the
Speaker 4: best of our ability, there's always going to be people
Speaker 4: who want to cheat. But the only way we can
Speaker 4: ensure the prevention of mass cheating is in person voting
Speaker 4: with photo ID. That's it. That's the only way we
Speaker 4: can do it. Great, when was the last time you
Speaker 4: signed a document other than your ballot?
Speaker 5: It's been a long time, because everything that you sign
Speaker 5: now is all electronics.
Speaker 4: Thank you, So how long is it before none of
Speaker 4: our signatures really matched the one on file with our
Speaker 4: voter registration. I signed it this year and I was like,
Speaker 4: I have no idea if that's my signature. I had
Speaker 4: no idea it is mine. Doesn't even look like a signature.
Speaker 4: It looks like somebody's pen ran out of ink and
Speaker 4: we're using It's just outdated, it's archaic, it's it's not good.
Speaker 4: It is not good at all. So maybe the debacle
Speaker 4: will be something positive. And now I'm going to leave
Speaker 4: you guys with a story that I think a vast
Speaker 4: majority of you will be able to enjoy because you
Speaker 4: are not paying ninety thousand dollars a year to send
Speaker 4: your kid to Georgetown. If you are, I'm going to
Speaker 4: advise you to just turn off the radio right now.
Speaker 4: Thank you for coming and staying with us on the show.
Speaker 4: But if you hear what your children are going to
Speaker 4: be taught for ninety thousand dollars a year, you may
Speaker 4: actually drive your car into a ditch. I don't want
Speaker 4: you to do that, So just turn off the station.
Speaker 4: If you're paying for Georgetown right now Georgetown students who
Speaker 4: traditionally have often gone to great things, great roles.
Speaker 6: It's an Ivy League school. It's fantastic.
Speaker 4: The McCourt School of Public Policy, where many diplomats and
Speaker 4: policymakers have been molded, is well if they're doing something special.
Speaker 4: In an email to mccurt students, Jacqueline Clevenger, the school's
Speaker 4: director of student Engagement, introduce the school's post election self
Speaker 4: care Suite in recognition of these stressful times, She wrote,
Speaker 4: all m clark community members are welcome to gather in
Speaker 4: the third floor Commons to take a much needed break,
Speaker 4: joining us for mindfulness activities.
Speaker 6: And snacks throughout the day.
Speaker 4: Now, if you want the agenda, here you go at
Speaker 4: ten am. All of these are an hour long. By
Speaker 4: the way, At ten am there will be tea, cocoa
Speaker 4: and self care. Eleven am they're going to open up
Speaker 4: the Legos station where you can play with legos to
Speaker 4: get over yourself as you spend eighty nine thousand dollars
Speaker 4: a year to go to college. At twelve pm there's
Speaker 4: healthy treats and healthy habits. One pm coloring and mindfulness exercise,
Speaker 4: two pm milk and cookies. Four PM, more legos and
Speaker 4: more coloring, and at five PM snacks and.
Speaker 6: Self guided meditation.
Speaker 4: I burst out laughing when I saw this today, but
Speaker 4: then it crystallized. I've been trying to write a book
Speaker 4: for a really long time, and I figured it out today.
Speaker 6: I'm writing a book called gen X Rules Tips.
Speaker 4: For the Next Generation, because this is horsecrap. If you
Speaker 4: are so disturbed by who won and who lost that
Speaker 4: you need milk and cookies and legos and coloring, you
Speaker 4: don't need to be in college.
Speaker 6: You need to be in kindergarten.
Speaker 4: This is what passes. And apparently see you SeeU election.
Speaker 4: Let me see if that pops up. There's another story
Speaker 4: about the CU election. They're doing similar things for the
Speaker 4: students at CEU, and it's like, come on, guys, come on,
Speaker 4: how are you supposed to go and do hard things.
Speaker 4: How are you supposed to go in and meet with
Speaker 4: a boss who is going to rip you to shreds
Speaker 4: for your performance when you deserve it and still function
Speaker 4: the rest of the day. How are you going to
Speaker 4: make difficult decisions that are going to impact your family,
Speaker 4: impact your your children when you can't even get over
Speaker 4: an election without tea Coco and self care. Now, don't
Speaker 4: get me wrong, I'm a big fan of self care, right,
Speaker 4: I'm a big fan of people making sure that they're
Speaker 4: in a good mental headspace. But what we've done with
Speaker 4: our just insane focus on mental illness is we've made
Speaker 4: every challenge on mental disorder. We've made everything that pops
Speaker 4: up into something that needs therapy, when in reality, sometimes
Speaker 4: you just got to suck it up, Buttercup, put on
Speaker 4: your big girl panties and go about your day. Ryan
Speaker 4: Edwards walked in on that one. I wasn't talking to
Speaker 4: you per se, Ryan, because I picture you more as
Speaker 4: a brief person, not a big girl panty type thing.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 4: Just saying for the record, I don't think Ryan wears
Speaker 4: women's underwear much.
Speaker 15: I mean, that's not one of those things that I
Speaker 15: would knock until I tried.
Speaker 6: But I mean, you know, nice work if you can
Speaker 6: get it kind of thing.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean listen, you know, like I said, it
Speaker 12: doesn't sound like something that would be interesting to.
Speaker 4: Me, But like I said, you know, hey tweet their own.
Speaker 4: I guess when you were in college at CSU, how
Speaker 4: much time did you spend engaging in legos and coloring
Speaker 4: and milk and cookies after an election to make you
Speaker 4: feel better, Ryan, because that's what's happening at Georgetown. I
Speaker 4: saw that earlier. Thousand dollars a year, I saw that
Speaker 4: earlier today. That's dumb, stupid, idiotic. Yes, all of those things. Listen,
Speaker 4: I don't like grand a year.
Speaker 15: All right, you're on a roll here, so I'm just
Speaker 15: gonna I'm just like.
Speaker 4: Cookies, Ryan, Yeah, like you can get milk and cookies
Speaker 4: a lot cheaper than ninety grand a year.
Speaker 12: Come on, are you saying you don't like milk and cookies?
Speaker 12: Are you an anti milkok cookies person?
Speaker 4: I love milk and cookies and as a matter of fact,
Speaker 4: sometimes I have them at my house for free. Okay,
Speaker 4: but I don't pay ninety grand a year to have
Speaker 4: my kids coddled like this is ridiculous. Oh my President Loss,
Speaker 4: we're going to douse some coloring to get through it.
Speaker 4: What are they going to take the crayon and just
Speaker 4: all over the page because get their rage? Out rage?
Speaker 6: Coloring? Is that a thing should be?
Speaker 4: It probably is?
Speaker 15: And if not, it's a million dollar idea on your part.
Speaker 4: You know what, We're already get to market. We're grant
Speaker 4: and I are already working on a company to make
