There's a movement afoot and 11 00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:41.520 it is growing and growing, and I'm sure you've seen it. 12 00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:44.479 And it's not just its conservatism, which of course has 13 00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:49.119 grown like crazy over the years, especially since the world 14 00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:52.000 of Donald Trump entered our lives. But this is a 15 00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:55.920 conservative vision of America. It has gained a lot of momentum. 16 00:00:56.159 --> 00:01:01.359 American culture has swung way too far to the left, 17 00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:06.920 and it should like look like well Americans and American 18 00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:09.000 families to really look like what they did. 19 00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:09.680 In the fifties. 20 00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:18.040 Women staying home, white picket fence dog named Spot, Dick 21 00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:19.799 and Jane two children. 22 00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:22.760 Well that's not the case anymore. 23 00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:30.760 Jd Vance with the childless cat ladies concept, you don't 24 00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:35.120 have kids, there's something wrong with you. And then, more recently, 25 00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:37.560 because he doubled down on that in America's reluctions to 26 00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:43.640 have children. Well, that philosophy is now through politics, social media, churches, households. 27 00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:47.120 I mean, it has really gathered steam and the dichotomy 28 00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:51.200 is now the polarity has gotten even worse, if that's possible. 29 00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:56.319 A Trump, a former Trump administration appointee, founded the Center 30 00:01:56.359 --> 00:02:01.280 for Baptist Leadership, wants to keep the Southern Baptist Convention 31 00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:05.439 theologically conservative. Does that mean only men can be pastors? 32 00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:11.360 Which makes a lot of sense because women pastors come. 33 00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:13.599 On nineteen twenty of the worst year in the history 34 00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:15.039 of the United States, women were given the. 35 00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:18.199 Right to vote. How horrific is that? 36 00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:24.039 Huh? Now, I don't think there are too many on 37 00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:26.439 the right that are going to say women should not vote. 38 00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:30.240 But a lot of people on the right endorse believe 39 00:02:30.280 --> 00:02:32.039 in restrictive views of family. 40 00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:34.240 And gender roles. That's for sure. 41 00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:39.199 Transcender rights, gay rights, reproductive rights, all of that is 42 00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:45.000 in one camp. You cannot be a conservative today and 43 00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:50.919 believe in all conservative values, but believe for example, that 44 00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:53.759 gay people it's okay for gays to get married. 45 00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:55.000 You can't do that. 46 00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:58.960 Everybody has to be a lockstep. No one can have 47 00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:03.639 an individual view. It doesn't work anymore on any side. 48 00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:07.039 Of the political spectrum. 49 00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:10.680 People are hungry for this nostalgia that we think happened. 50 00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:13.120 You know, the good old days were never the good 51 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:19.439 old days. The good old days were rotten. Right in 52 00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:23.039 the fifties, right, no one had air conditioning. How's that 53 00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:26.800 for the good old days? Your cars lasted two minutes. 54 00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:31.199 I'll tell you one of the worst things I remember 55 00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:33.560 as a kid my sneakers. 56 00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:37.680 My shoelaces would break every five minutes. 57 00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:40.240 There it is, there's good old days. I can describe 58 00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:45.439 perfectly good old days. I couldn't keep shoelaces together for 59 00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:46.919 a month without them breaking. 60 00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:49.039 When's the last time you had to replace the shoelace 61 00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:50.120 that broke? You don't. 62 00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:53.319 The technology has gotten to the point where shoelaces do 63 00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:54.080 not break. 64 00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:57.759 So let me get this straight. Yeah, not civil rights, 65 00:03:57.919 --> 00:04:02.919 no right for women. No, No, your shoelaces were yes, 66 00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:05.560 Why the fifties weren't the good old days? 67 00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:10.439 That's correct, that's an analogy, though, say that's not all encompassing. 68 00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:13.759 But the point I'm making is you had to look 69 00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:17.519 how long cars lasted the good old days. They weren't. 70 00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:22.399 We're gonna look fifty years from now, it is gonna 71 00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:25.839 be oh, remember the two thousands of the twenty twenties. 72 00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:27.759 Those are the good old days? 73 00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:28.240 Wrong. 74 00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:29.879 Wrong. 75 00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:34.160 And the problem is, and I believe the problem is, 76 00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:38.360 is that the entire issue of transgender reproductive rights. 77 00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:40.079 Look where the states have broken. We got rid of 78 00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:40.439 Roe v. 79 00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:40.800 Wade. 80 00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:43.399 And by the way, there's a legal argument for getting 81 00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:44.199 rid of Roe Vuwaide. 82 00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:46.480 I don't have a problem with this the legal aspect 83 00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:47.959 when they say, oh my god, it's been around for 84 00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:50.439 fifty years, and therefore as president, Hey, the Supreme Court 85 00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:52.519 has reversed itself many times in history. 86 00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:54.199 Too bad. 87 00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:57.399 You know, you had a conservative president that was elected. 88 00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:02.800 Three justices retired or died on his watch. He selects, 89 00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:07.040 he nominates, the Senate confirms, and guess what those are 90 00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:07.600 the rules. 91 00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:16.360 So you had Roe v. Wade being overturned and legitimately 92 00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:19.439 so legally, there's no question about it. Now, I don't 93 00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:20.040 agree with that. 94 00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:23.480 I happen to believe in reproductive rights, but I can 95 00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:25.680 certainly see the logic the legal argument. 96 00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:27.600 As a matter of fact, there's more of a legal 97 00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:28.519 argument that Roe v. 98 00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:33.240 Wade shouldn't exist under our constitution. But you know, I digress. 99 00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:36.839 The point is it's a very different world. I mean today, 100 00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:38.240 the way we look at gay rights. You know, when 101 00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:41.720 I first started doing surrogacy and my first gay couple 102 00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:43.120 to have children. 103 00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:47.279 Was I think nineteen eighty two. It was a long 104 00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:49.959 time ago when I helped the gay couple I have kids. 105 00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:52.839 Not only that, I have to keep it under the radar, 106 00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:55.120 and I had to say, we have to keep this 107 00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:56.240 really quiet. 108 00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:59.560 You won't admit this. I don't talk about this. 109 00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:05.439 Not only is it going to be a firestorm that 110 00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:10.399 gay men are having children, it will be a firestorm 111 00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:14.240 that gay men are having sex, that gay men are 112 00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:21.120 gay men inherent on to itself, gaiosity should be a crime. 113 00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:27.680 And I don't think anybody is arguing, even those among 114 00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:32.839 the most conservative argue that homosexuality should be criminal. But 115 00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:35.399 there are plenty of people that argue that homosexual should 116 00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:37.560 not get married, should not have children. 117 00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:43.040 But why can't this be a combination, like what well, 118 00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:46.680 instead of this looking like turning back the clock, on 119 00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:50.920 gender roles. Why doesn't it look at the nuclear family. 120 00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:52.879 I don't care if it's two men or two women. 121 00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:55.399 Well that's not the nuclear family, I think here. 122 00:06:55.399 --> 00:06:57.720 But wait, so one person's stays at. 123 00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:02.040 Home, Now, that's fine and that is not a problem. 124 00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:05.959 Even those that believe in absolute free choice pro choice. 125 00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:07.040 No one's saying. 126 00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:10.279 That a woman or a man in many cases, well 127 00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:14.399 some cases, shouldn't stay at home. The argument is is 128 00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:18.600 should a woman not go to work because that contradicts 129 00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:21.439 family values. A woman should be at home taking care 130 00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:25.480 of kids, and that belief is gaining more and more 131 00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:29.279 traction now. One of the things that those who believe 132 00:07:29.399 --> 00:07:31.920 that we don't have enough kids the JD. Van's arguing 133 00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:36.439 childlessness somehow there's something wrong with it. When you're talking 134 00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:41.800 about culturally and economically, that's absolutely true. The world's birth 135 00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:45.720 rate is dropping dramatically, and when you're looking at public policy, 136 00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:49.000 the fewer kids that are born, the more trouble any 137 00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:52.240 society is because you've got old people that have to 138 00:07:52.279 --> 00:07:56.240 be taken care of and they're living longer, and you've 139 00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:59.600 got fewer people coming into the workforce to support those people. 140 00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:04.800 That is disaster for an economy. So on an economic level, 141 00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:08.360 that makes a lot of sense. But to tell me 142 00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:17.879 that I don't have enough children or I should have children, No, 143 00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:19.319 I shouldn't have you. 144 00:08:19.879 --> 00:08:21.600 That was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. 145 00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:24.480 You've had plenty, don't have any more? 146 00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:26.600 Yeah, I go, Barbara. 147 00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:28.560 You know, Pamela the other day went up to me 148 00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:30.639 and said, if you had your choice, you really wouldn't 149 00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:33.440 have me, right, I go, Come on, Pamela. You know 150 00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:36.240 I love you, don't you You really wouldn't have me, 151 00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:39.720 would you. Now, Pamela, don't say that. Yeah it's true. Actually, 152 00:08:40.320 --> 00:08:47.200 uh yeah, Now have a burger. All right, We're done. 153 00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:50.919 I love my daughters, they love me. And my credit cards. 154 00:08:51.639 --> 00:08:56.720 Oh okay. Moving over to something that's kind of fun, 155 00:08:57.200 --> 00:09:01.919 and that's traveling. After the pandemic, I mean, the travel 156 00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:06.320 industry exploded, as you can imagine, and that is now 157 00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:09.120 slowing down for a couple of reasons. First of all, 158 00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:13.840 it got pretty expensive supply and demand. And second of all, 159 00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:17.279 all the money that we had that was put away, 160 00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.120 the stimulus money, the fact you couldn't spend the money, 161 00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:25.120 Well that's gone, and so travel has sort of come 162 00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:30.240 back down to I guess what's considered reasonable levels, and 163 00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:33.759 people are spending more, and even prices are starting. 164 00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:36.519 To drop, except airlines. 165 00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:40.240 Even airlines, the prices have dropped at least moderated, but 166 00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:43.919 not among those people that by business class or travel 167 00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:48.840 for example, non stop at a good time, those prices 168 00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:54.039 are still completely astronomical. I am sending my daughter, she's 169 00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:59.159 getting married, and I'm sending her and her boyfriend. Now 170 00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:02.559 will be your high and I'm giving them a honeymoon trip, 171 00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:07.559 and I am. They're going to do Italy, And let 172 00:10:07.559 --> 00:10:09.440 me tell you how difficult it is to do Italy 173 00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:13.559 on three dollars a day and finding airfare that was 174 00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:16.200 reasonably cheap, they said, gee, can we go direct? 175 00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:16.960 Are you crazy? 176 00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:23.440 So they have nineteen stops between here and there because 177 00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:27.000 you got to find those bargains out there. And believe me, 178 00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:30.159 they're not going high end at all. It's just more 179 00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:35.879 difficult to fly. It's more difficult to travel, although international 180 00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:37.919 travel is still where Americans want to go. 181 00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:39.120 That adds to it too. 182 00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:42.039 You know, we don't go to the Grand Canyon anymore, 183 00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:47.799 we don't go to Yellowstone National Park. What we do 184 00:10:47.960 --> 00:10:52.000 is we go overseas. So things have changed, and I'll 185 00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:54.399 tell you the part. And I've always said this, and 186 00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.080 it's catching on. You know, the business, the travel business 187 00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:01.320 that is getting strong, younger and stronger. 188 00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:05.639 Cruising cruising cruise ships. 189 00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:08.399 They have always been the best bargain out there, even 190 00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:09.919 though they're a lot price, or it used to be. 191 00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:11.440 I mean, you can get if you go to a 192 00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:12.759 carnival cruise. 193 00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:15.679 And you're willing to put an inside cabin next to 194 00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:19.519 the elevator and you're willing to take drunk people partying 195 00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:22.039 twenty four hours a day and screaming down the hall. 196 00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:27.559 You can do a week for four hundred dollars and 197 00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:30.480 that includes all the food you can eat. I mean, no, 198 00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:33.879 I don't take carnival cruises, but I've cruised thirty five times. 199 00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:37.840 It's it's a tremendous bargain. The food is good, you 200 00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:38.960 get as much of as you want. 201 00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.679 Them is very high end. You get well. 202 00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:44.159 I mean the shows, that's all included. You know, the 203 00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:48.039 show tunes, the same gay chorus you know you can't 204 00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:49.919 be straight, and being the chorus on a cruise line, 205 00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:51.840 you know that they actually ask you. That's one of 206 00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:55.000 the few places that it is legal to ask someone 207 00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:57.240 Are you gay or not? And if you are not, 208 00:11:57.399 --> 00:11:58.480 you're not getting the job. 209 00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:04.600 You've been on a cruise Neil, Yes, am I right? 210 00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:07.360 What about gay men? 211 00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:10.600 Yeah in the chorus, of course I'm right. 212 00:12:11.120 --> 00:12:12.600 I don't remember seeing a car. 213 00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:15.759 Oh please stop at stop at Of course they are, 214 00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:18.279 but I know I is. 215 00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:21.960 To have a course, a course of gay men around you. 216 00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:25.440 Yes, one singular, That's exactly it. 217 00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:27.320 You get all the show tunes you want, but you 218 00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:30.360 get some good comedians that are not so blue, and 219 00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:32.840 you get you know, they stay away from politics. But 220 00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:35.559 cruise lines are as. They build more and more of 221 00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:38.759 these ships, and I mean now it's like twelve thousand 222 00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:39.720 people on a ship. 223 00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:43.200 They are truly cities that float. 224 00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:48.879 I remember going on somehow somebody convinced me to go 225 00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:52.320 on a Royal Caribbean, you know, the Caribbean of the 226 00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:55.000 I don't know, continents, whatever the hell it was called. 227 00:12:55.679 --> 00:12:59.639 Like seven thousand people, seven thousand cruisers, not counting the 228 00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:02.919 five people that are board the ship that work there. 229 00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:06.840 It was one of the worst experiences of my life. 230 00:13:08.759 --> 00:13:12.120 It was horrific, but it was a bargain and the 231 00:13:12.200 --> 00:13:16.039 kids got everything they needed, and that was it had 232 00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:18.559 to pay relatively little money as opposed to going out 233 00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:19.039 there people. 234 00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:21.519 That's the business that is exploding is cruising. 235 00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:24.919 As you think of these ships coming online, there's not 236 00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:29.080 enough of them and they don't stop the rest of 237 00:13:29.120 --> 00:13:33.000 the travel industry has dropped pretty dramatically. You know what's 238 00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:37.000 also hurt the travel industry a lot is the California 239 00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:40.559 law that all of. 240 00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:42.840 The costs have to be on the bill. 241 00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:45.200 You have to know in advance how much your hotel 242 00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:48.960 bill is going to be. And the fact that now 243 00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:52.240 that crap resort fee and the towel fees and whatever 244 00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:55.080 junk fees that they put on there, which can add 245 00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:59.960 thirty percent to your hotel bill, that has the fact 246 00:13:59.919 --> 00:14:06.159 that it's on the bill has actually cost discern discernible costs, which. 247 00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:08.120 Has caused bookings to go down. 248 00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:12.919 We're spending too much money, we're not saving. We're back 249 00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:19.159 to credit cards. We're traveling overseas and cruising has gone crazy. 250 00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:19.759 What else? 251 00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:25.320 And everything is too crowded, Everything is too crowded. It's 252 00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:26.840 all like a day at Disneyland. 253 00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.480 What's the worst day? And Neil you've gone, and Amy 254 00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:30.000 you've gone. 255 00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:33.440 Aren't there days when you literally cannot go from one 256 00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:35.639 land to the other because it's so jammed. 257 00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:41.399 No, I have only been one time where I laughed 258 00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:44.840 at the crowd where I was like, holy shrud, this 259 00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:47.039 is massive amounts. 260 00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:48.840 And then recently when I went. 261 00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:56.759 They have this issue with with the Haunted Mansion because 262 00:14:56.759 --> 00:14:59.960 they're redoing the cues and it was weird and backed up. 263 00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:02.919 But other than that, and I've gone a crap ton. Yeah, 264 00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:06.279 there was only one time WHEREVER went, wow, this this 265 00:15:06.440 --> 00:15:08.360 is a lot of humans in one day. 266 00:15:08.399 --> 00:15:10.000 Amy. Have you ever been in the park when they 267 00:15:10.120 --> 00:15:13.159 shut down entrance coming in because there were too many 268 00:15:13.159 --> 00:15:15.279 people in the crowd in the in the park. 269 00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:18.000 They did it one time when I think it was 270 00:15:18.080 --> 00:15:20.399 on New Year's Eve, but we were already in, so 271 00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:21.559 it was okay with me. 272 00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:24.720 Yeah, of course, okay, sure, why not. 273 00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:27.799 And even when it is super crowded, like Neil said, 274 00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:30.159 you kind of just wonder it's. 275 00:15:30.559 --> 00:15:34.440 Yeah, it's fun. Yeah, okay, it is. I know, I 276 00:15:34.559 --> 00:15:36.480 like it and I'm not listen. I like this lane, 277 00:15:36.679 --> 00:15:36.960 you know what. 278 00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:44.279 Okay, let me imagine this, uh, wintertime, February March, five 279 00:15:44.519 --> 00:15:46.799 thousand people in the park. 280 00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:50.639 No, wait for anything. That's what I had when I 281 00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:51.240 was a kid. 282 00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:53.440 Those days are gone. 283 00:15:53.320 --> 00:15:56.919 No kidding, those really were the good old days. 284 00:15:57.399 --> 00:16:01.080 All right, Monday on his twelfth The Olympics are over, 285 00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:05.120 and now all the concentration is right here in LA 286 00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:07.960 because we're gonna have the twenty twenty eight Olympics, and 287 00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:10.720 we are going to have a lot of infrastructure, and 288 00:16:10.840 --> 00:16:15.679 we're gonna have the what the people mover which is 289 00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:19.799 gonna be available to us by the twenty forty eight Olympics. 290 00:16:20.879 --> 00:16:23.279 It's gonna be very strong, very strong. First day of school. 291 00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:26.919 By the way, LA unified today. And it's getting closer 292 00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:29.960 and closer to a regional war in the Middle East. 293 00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:32.559 A barrage of rockets fired by a Chispo law into 294 00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:36.279 Israel last night. Don't know where it's gonna go. All right, 295 00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:38.360 real quickly, Wayne, do they have a kate? 296 00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:39.240 What all of that? 297 00:16:39.440 --> 00:16:41.840 But how are you? I'm good. I'm good. It's all 298 00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:44.720 good news, Wayne. Right, do they have the case? 299 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:45.840 Amongst other things? 300 00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:49.799 This case is gonna test your ability to behave yourself? 301 00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:51.720 Oh god, yeah, that's gonna work. 302 00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:53.120 Well, let's see what happens. 303 00:16:53.399 --> 00:16:56.440 It's a sweet tale of a guy and a goal 304 00:16:57.039 --> 00:17:04.519 and an ongoing love making relationship, which is tarnished by 305 00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:10.079 the fact that after about a year, she is diagnosed 306 00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:18.279 with ano genital HPV that she got from him. So 307 00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:23.839 he gave her this, yes, Amy is grimacing, rightly, so 308 00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:30.279 so anyway, no genital, Yeah, you know that's the medical correct, 309 00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:32.680 that is the medical terms. 310 00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:35.160 There's respiratory hp. 311 00:17:35.559 --> 00:17:37.680 I no, no, it's just the a no part that 312 00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:41.279 I've never heard, so I'm just being curious. 313 00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:43.240 Okay, Yes, so he gives her HPV. 314 00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:46.359 He gives her HPV down there. She sues him. But 315 00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:49.839 then and here's where we have a case. Maybe she 316 00:17:50.039 --> 00:17:55.039 sends a demand letter to Geico wanting them to pay 317 00:17:55.039 --> 00:17:58.519 out the full million dollar max on his auto insurance 318 00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:03.720 policy because and nobody in this case is arguing this 319 00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:07.640 point for some reason, that he gave it to her 320 00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:10.440 while they were making love in his car. 321 00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.480 Okay. You don't make love in a car, You stoop 322 00:18:13.599 --> 00:18:14.079 in the car. 323 00:18:14.200 --> 00:18:15.279 They're in the starters. 324 00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:15.640 Okay. 325 00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:22.000 And as you described this, basically, there's a song about this, right, 326 00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:24.960 what is it? 327 00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:26.559 Making love in all the wrong places? 328 00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:28.839 Cooking that's looking for love. 329 00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:32.680 I knew that it was one of those. Yeah, yeah, okay. 330 00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:35.920 Sorry, once turns it into the insurance company, go I got. 331 00:18:35.759 --> 00:18:38.079 It because of him. He was stooping me in the car. 332 00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:40.759 In the car, it was a car the wrong place, 333 00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:45.319 and I'm trying to visually figure out what positions they 334 00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:45.680 were in. 335 00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:49.119 But while you're talking, I'm visualizing. 336 00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:52.039 Well, don't distract yourself from the task at hand, which 337 00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:55.079 is this case. So Geico of course says, get. 338 00:18:54.880 --> 00:18:55.279 Out of here. 339 00:18:55.279 --> 00:19:00.680 That's ridiculous, and a lower court judge said as. 340 00:19:01.960 --> 00:19:02.119 Well. 341 00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:05.480 Actually, what happens is Geico goes to a lower court 342 00:19:05.559 --> 00:19:09.440 judge to say, would you please do this declarative, declarative 343 00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:11.480 thing that you do where you just say right now 344 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:14.240 that we don't have to cover this, and the lower 345 00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:16.400 court says, yeah, you don't have to cover this, and 346 00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:20.440 then these people go to the appeals court. One other 347 00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:24.960 little wrinkle here, they entered into a settlement the guy 348 00:19:24.960 --> 00:19:28.920 in the gow. Under the law in Missouri where this happened, 349 00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:32.480 you can make a settlement where she agrees she can 350 00:19:32.599 --> 00:19:36.680 only recover from the insurance company and never from him. 351 00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:42.680 So you can see her motivation to have Geico cover 352 00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:46.039 this because she's already agreed she can never get anything 353 00:19:46.079 --> 00:19:50.000 from the guy. Geico says, get out of here. That's crazy, 354 00:19:50.079 --> 00:19:52.359 she says, Look at the way your policy is written. 355 00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:56.640 It says that you will pay damages when the insured 356 00:19:57.799 --> 00:20:01.480 becomes legally obligated to pay because of number one bodily 357 00:20:01.599 --> 00:20:06.680 injury and number two damage her destruction to property arising 358 00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:09.200 out of the ownership, maintenance, use of the owned auto. 359 00:20:09.519 --> 00:20:12.960 She says, Look, the bodily injury doesn't have to have 360 00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:16.359 anything to do with the ownership, maintenance, or use of 361 00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:20.519 the car. It happened in the car. It's a bodily injury. 362 00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:24.640 You have to cover it. What say you? And what 363 00:20:24.720 --> 00:20:28.079 do you think? The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals said to. 364 00:20:28.119 --> 00:20:32.359 Her, I either it is written or it is implicit 365 00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:36.519 in an auto insurance policy. That it has to be 366 00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:40.920 with using the auto as is it intended to be used, 367 00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:46.319 and that is driving it or parking it somehow connected 368 00:20:46.319 --> 00:20:51.000 to the auto. Stooping in the auto is probably not covered, 369 00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:56.680 is my guess. So they said no, They enjoyed the case, 370 00:20:57.279 --> 00:21:00.000 no question. The court, when they took their coffee break, 371 00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:03.599 certainly talked about this, saying, boy, do I have a 372 00:21:03.640 --> 00:21:05.599 case for you. Wait till you see what came in 373 00:21:05.599 --> 00:21:09.720 front of me today. The Appeals court because and I 374 00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:13.000 don't even know if it is said in the insurance 375 00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:16.799 policy that it must be connected to the driving or 376 00:21:16.920 --> 00:21:20.240 ownership of the vehicle in a way that cars were 377 00:21:20.359 --> 00:21:24.000 intended's that's my guest. I would even guess that a 378 00:21:24.079 --> 00:21:31.920 non operative car on cinderblocks, that that would it would 379 00:21:31.960 --> 00:21:34.960 not be covered, even though it was part of your 380 00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:36.000 parking the car. 381 00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:37.440 So I'm saying it's a big no. 382 00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:40.119 I mean, you know that Gal is going to suffer 383 00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:43.000 with her malady without getting paid. 384 00:21:43.599 --> 00:21:45.400 You are correct, Here's what they said. 385 00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:47.759 If you only look at the way it's worded, she 386 00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:51.160 has a case just to the way they wrote the policy. 387 00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:54.240 But you can't just look at those words. As you said, 388 00:21:54.319 --> 00:21:59.960 it's implied that it is in connection with something about 389 00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:03.240 using the car as you use a car, and that 390 00:22:03.359 --> 00:22:06.920 if you didn't it would mean that if you have 391 00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:12.559 Geico car insurance and somebody trips in your driveway, they 392 00:22:12.640 --> 00:22:14.599 would have to pay. If you want to read it 393 00:22:14.640 --> 00:22:16.279 the way that she wants to read it, So she, 394 00:22:16.440 --> 00:22:20.559 unfortunately now will get no compensation from anybody. 395 00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:25.319 Right now, I'm envisioning if he is driving the vehicle 396 00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:29.480 and she is injured, for example, does a great impression 397 00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:31.319 of bobbing for apples at a party. 398 00:22:32.519 --> 00:22:37.279 Then I believe that there could be coverage. Okay, all right. 399 00:22:37.319 --> 00:22:39.000 Put on your libel hat. 400 00:22:39.519 --> 00:22:44.599 So they open a new amphitheater in Charlotte, North Carolina, 401 00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:48.279
