00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.839
<v Speaker 1>This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to kf

<v Speaker 1>I A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show

3
00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:08.160
<v Speaker 1>on demand on the iHeartRadio app. I would imagine if

4
00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:11.400
<v Speaker 1>you did enough thunderstruck, you would get arthritis.

5
00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:15.439
<v Speaker 2>Not in all, but all, can you post a picture

6
00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:18.600
<v Speaker 2>for me of Trump riding a bicycle? Good point.

7
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:19.239
<v Speaker 3>I'm curious.

8
00:00:19.679 --> 00:00:20.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they're.

9
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:23.519
<v Speaker 1>That guy should be signed up by the Biden campaign.

10
00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:25.920
<v Speaker 1>He defends everything that's lovely.

11
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:30.920
<v Speaker 4>We're talking also about that fin whale that showed up

12
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:32.520
<v Speaker 4>off the beach or on the beach.

13
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:35.520
<v Speaker 2>I should say torce dude.

14
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:37.799
<v Speaker 4>First of all, yesterday when I saw the whale, I

15
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:42.960
<v Speaker 4>scream it's.

16
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:43.560
<v Speaker 5>And everybody looked.

17
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:44.280
<v Speaker 2>At me like I was crazy.

18
00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:45.520
<v Speaker 5>But that's fine.

19
00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:46.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm good with that.

20
00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:48.520

<v Speaker 2>What do we do? And what did I yell? We

00:00:55.399 --> 00:00:57.719
<v Speaker 2>blow it? That's a good girl.

25
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:02.560
<v Speaker 4>That's what we do here, of course, that's what we do.

26
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:04.560
<v Speaker 2>It's time for swamp watch.

27
00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:04.799
<v Speaker 6>Now.

28
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:06.560
<v Speaker 4>The swamp is horrible.

29
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:10.760
<v Speaker 2>The government doesn't work. Man, make it like a reality

00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:06.359
<v Speaker 2>Are not going to miss this circus.

48
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:09.479
<v Speaker 1>So we will be there in Chicago in what a

49
00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:10.960
<v Speaker 1>week we're going next week?

50
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:16.360
<v Speaker 4>I don't ask me. I have been so discombobulated about

51
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:16.960
<v Speaker 4>what day is.

52
00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:20.680
<v Speaker 2>I know, I know there's a lot going on. Well,

53
00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:23.560
<v Speaker 2>the next Monday is the nineties, So yes, next Monday

54
00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:23.919
<v Speaker 2>will be I.

55
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:26.039
<v Speaker 1>Mean, you're moving your daughter out of state, and then

56
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:29.719
<v Speaker 1>you're going to the convention, and then I'm going to Dallas.

57
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:34.280
<v Speaker 2>We've got a lot going on. Yeah, are you Okay, I'm.

58
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Are you living your emotional cycle already?

59
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:40.520
<v Speaker 4>No, here's the thing is, I've started packing already because

60
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:42.840
<v Speaker 4>I'm trying to figure out exactly what I'm going to need,

61
00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:45.159
<v Speaker 4>and there's some like some equipment stuff that we're going

62
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:45.879
<v Speaker 4>to underwear.

63
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Make sure to bring enough underwear for a two week vacation.

64
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:51.879
<v Speaker 4>Well, I'm not going to Bryce Canyon or something like that.

65
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:55.680
<v Speaker 4>There are places that if I don't bring underpant I

66
00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:57.280
<v Speaker 4>can buy underwhee.

67
00:02:57.360 --> 00:02:59.960
<v Speaker 2>But what's the deal with us packing underwear? We always

68
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:01.960
<v Speaker 2>packed too much underwear, don't we? Who do you?

69
00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:06.439
<v Speaker 1>Me and everybody else in the world. We overpack underwear

70
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:07.240
<v Speaker 1>when we go places.

71
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:10.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm a one, I'm a plus one. Count your days

72
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:11.560
<v Speaker 4>plus one.

73
00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Shocking to me because I do remember a trip where

74
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:16.039
<v Speaker 1>you ran out and you had to turn him inside out.

75
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:19.560
<v Speaker 2>You always need extra Yeah, yes, Jacob and I.

76
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:22.000
<v Speaker 4>You're referring to a time I went to go to

77
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:22.800
<v Speaker 4>my parents' house.

78
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:25.400
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't matter where you were you ran out. No,

79
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:25.759
<v Speaker 2>I didn't.

80
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:27.639
<v Speaker 4>I didn't take any you didn't take I mean it

81
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:29.719
<v Speaker 4>was whatever I was wearing at the time was what

82
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:33.599
<v Speaker 4>I was So it was it was a hot weekend anyway, nobody,

83
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:37.680
<v Speaker 4>what is that about? Speaking of the convention, We do

84
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:41.000
<v Speaker 4>now know that Kamala Harris is set to formally accept

85
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:45.680
<v Speaker 4>the nomination on the two on the twenty second, that's

86
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:49.719
<v Speaker 4>Thursday night, traditional set up usually, But we do have

87
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:52.800
<v Speaker 4>some more prominent figures that are set to speak at

88
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:57.639
<v Speaker 4>the convention. President Joe Biden, former Presidents Barack Obama and

89
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:01.000
<v Speaker 4>Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. They have

90
00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:06.360
<v Speaker 4>all been confirmed as speakers at the convention. Obama and

91
00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:10.000
<v Speaker 4>the Clintons, they delivered speeches during the twenty twenty DNC. Obviously,

92
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:12.759
<v Speaker 4>it was held virtually in front of the part that

93
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:16.519
<v Speaker 4>looked like a drive in theater. There is a there

94
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:24.800
<v Speaker 4>is rumor that former President Jimmy Carter's grandson Jason, could

95
00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:29.759
<v Speaker 4>be a speaker as a representative for his father. Will

96
00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:35.600
<v Speaker 4>take place with just there's not confusion now, but when

97
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:39.680
<v Speaker 4>Biden stepped down from the ticket, there was confusion about

98
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:42.480
<v Speaker 4>what that what that convention was going to look like.

99
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.800
<v Speaker 4>So of course you will get Tim Walls. His big

100
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.920
<v Speaker 4>night is probably going to be Wednesday. Kamala Harris big

101
00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:55.439
<v Speaker 4>night will be Thursday, and all of the speakers, et cetera.

102
00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:56.720
<v Speaker 2>Once we get a.

103
00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:59.160
<v Speaker 4>Little bit closer to it, we'll know more about what

104
00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:00.000
<v Speaker 4>each night is going to.

105
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Kamala Harris has backed the elimination of taxes on tips

106
00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:07.800
<v Speaker 1>for hospitality and service workers. This was a policy first

107
00:05:07.839 --> 00:05:14.160
<v Speaker 1>suggested my former President Trump. It's an interesting position to take,

108
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:19.759
<v Speaker 1>considering we are so overtipping everywhere we go because of

109
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:24.360
<v Speaker 1>these stupid tablets. They spin them around often more often

110
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:27.759
<v Speaker 1>than not, they start at fifteen percent, eighteen percent, twenty percent,

111
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:30.720
<v Speaker 1>what have you? Sure you can alter it and go

112
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:33.000
<v Speaker 1>down to ten percent or what have you. I'm an

113
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:37.759
<v Speaker 1>overtipper anyway, so it's when you suggest to me to overtip,

114
00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to probably do it. And I think that

115
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:42.959
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people are the same way, especially when

116
00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:45.680
<v Speaker 1>you've got that dude looking back at you who just

117
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:51.920
<v Speaker 1>made your bagel, you know, and he sees you he's yeah,

118
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:56.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I will tip the bagel people. You don't

119
00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>tip the bagel people.

120
00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:02.120
<v Speaker 2>No, And I don't know if that's a bad thing

121
00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:04.160
<v Speaker 2>for me, No, it's probably good. A whole lot of

122
00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:05.240
<v Speaker 2>effort into it, you know.

123
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:08.040
<v Speaker 1>There's there's also the rule of if I'm not sitting

124
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:10.120
<v Speaker 1>down at a table and you're serving me I'm not

125
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:11.839
<v Speaker 1>going to tip you if I'm walking up to the

126
00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:14.279
<v Speaker 1>counter ordering a bagel. That's your job. You're not going

127
00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:17.079
<v Speaker 1>above and beyond. Yet I'm a dumbass, and I fall

128
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:22.839
<v Speaker 1>for it every time. I mean, did well, yes the tweet.

129
00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:24.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes you are a dumbass. No it's not.

130
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:27.639
<v Speaker 4>I was going to say, yes, there's got to be

131
00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:30.600
<v Speaker 4>a calculus in your own head about what exactly did

132
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:31.800
<v Speaker 4>that person do for me.

133
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:33.680
<v Speaker 1>I just think it's a sore subject right now for

134
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:35.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people that they feel like they're being

135
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:39.040
<v Speaker 1>taken advantage of with those tablets in the tipping, so

136
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:41.480
<v Speaker 1>to highlight it, I guess as part of one of

137
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:43.879
<v Speaker 1>the first things we're hearing about what your policies are

138
00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:44.519
<v Speaker 1>going to look like.

139
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:45.079
<v Speaker 2>Is odd.

140
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:49.639
<v Speaker 4>I will say, if if any even in the stem

141
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:54.319
<v Speaker 4>situation circumstance where somebody is I'm standing there standing and

142
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:58.720
<v Speaker 4>they do something that's particularly good or nice, or their.

143
00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:00.720
<v Speaker 2>Customer service tells me you have a right ass.

144
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:04.319
<v Speaker 4>Or something anything, your eyes are delightful, something like that,

145
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:06.519
<v Speaker 4>they'll get a tip, because I want to encourage that

146
00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:08.240
<v Speaker 4>kind of customer service.

147
00:07:08.879 --> 00:07:11.319
<v Speaker 2>But if you're just like I mean, you could barely

148
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:12.600
<v Speaker 2>be bothered to.

149
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:18.480
<v Speaker 4>Make eye contact or to finish your conversation with your

150
00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:20.680
<v Speaker 4>coworkers before you pay attention to the customer.

151
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:22.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're gonna get a big middle finger.

152
00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:26.800
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely. I couldn't agree more. I went and got a

153
00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:32.079
<v Speaker 1>sandwich the other day, and I just have a problem

154
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:34.600
<v Speaker 1>when people are not efficient. It's like you're making a

155
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:37.160
<v Speaker 1>How long could this possibly take? I used to do this.

156
00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:39.720
<v Speaker 1>I know it's seconds. It can be seconds. Do they

157
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:42.079
<v Speaker 1>feel like they're Sam and they're shooting the A s

158
00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:46.319
<v Speaker 1>with their friends? And oh and this and one pickle here,

159
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.040
<v Speaker 1>and I'll pick a piece of lettuce here and put

160
00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:53.319
<v Speaker 1>that on. Just lack a daisical and not customer focused.

161
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:55.600
<v Speaker 2>Meanwhile, it's feeding time and they don't know it.

162
00:07:56.399 --> 00:08:00.800
<v Speaker 4>Yes, I wanted to read just the present former president's

163
00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:04.439
<v Speaker 4>tweet about Kamala Harris and the tips thing. He wrote,

164
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:07.759
<v Speaker 4>Kamala Harris, whose honeymoon period is ending and is starting

165
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:09.879
<v Speaker 4>to get hammered in the polls, just copied my no

166
00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:13.600
<v Speaker 4>taxes on tips policy. The difference is she won't do it,

167
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:15.879
<v Speaker 4>she just wants it for political purposes. This was a

168
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:19.000
<v Speaker 4>Trump idea. She has no ideas. She can only steal

169
00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:22.000
<v Speaker 4>from me. Remember, Kamala has proposed the largest tax increase

170
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:26.720
<v Speaker 4>in history. It won't happen. Make America great again. I

171
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:29.800
<v Speaker 4>assume this is going to come up tonight. Former President

172
00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:33.200
<v Speaker 4>Trump is sitting down with Elon Musk for an interview

173
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:36.960
<v Speaker 4>on Twitter. And according to Elon Musk, there are no

174
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:40.399
<v Speaker 4>holds barred. There is nothing that is off limits. I

175
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:42.200
<v Speaker 4>don't think he would have agreed to do the interview

176
00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:45.080
<v Speaker 4>if there was, but that the Trump campaign has said

177
00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:48.960
<v Speaker 4>you can ask anything and listen. They've done this before.

178
00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:52.000
<v Speaker 4>You remember, it wasn't that long ago when Ron de

179
00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:55.080
<v Speaker 4>Santis sat down with Elon Musk to try to announce

180
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:56.799
<v Speaker 4>that he was going to run for president, and it

181
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:01.879
<v Speaker 4>was a technological nightmare and really was kind of hamstrung

182
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:04.480
<v Speaker 4>that DeSantis campaign early on. But we'll see if it

183
00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:07.639
<v Speaker 4>happens today. It's supposed to be on former President Trump's

184
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:08.519
<v Speaker 4>Twitter account.

185
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Garian Shannon will continue with all of the rest, including

186
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:14.799
<v Speaker 1>JD Vance and drag.

187
00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:18.000
<v Speaker 2>How about that? Well something nice for you Cary This Monday.

188
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:22.720
<v Speaker 4>Gary and Shannon will continue. Also, Connor wrote us a

189
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.799
<v Speaker 4>swamp Watch song. Really yeah, Okay. One of the big

190
00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:31.320
<v Speaker 4>stories that we have followed internationally is that The Jerusalem

191
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:35.519
<v Speaker 4>Post is reporting, and so is Fox, that Iran could

192
00:09:35.559 --> 00:09:37.879
<v Speaker 4>carry out an attack on Israel in the coming days.

193
00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:42.399
<v Speaker 4>There is a summit on the hostage deal negotiations that's

194
00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:45.360
<v Speaker 4>supposed to take place on Thursday. It would be very

195
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:48.159
<v Speaker 4>fitting if, in fact, they did some sort of an

196
00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:52.799
<v Speaker 4>attack before then. Also, this is a big time Jewish holiday.

197
00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:58.919
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to say it incorrectly. Tisha Bov marks the

198
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:03.480
<v Speaker 4>destruction of Temple and is a big deal. And they

199
00:10:03.879 --> 00:10:07.320
<v Speaker 4>make a big deal out of anniversaries and commemorations like that,

200
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:10.679
<v Speaker 4>So that could potentially be something to keep an eye on.

201
00:10:10.759 --> 00:10:14.600
<v Speaker 4>Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin did order a guided missile submarine

202
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:17.120
<v Speaker 4>to the Middle East and is telling the USS Abraham

203
00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:22.360
<v Speaker 4>Lincoln Aircraft Carrier Strike Group to steam forth quickly and

204
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:24.360
<v Speaker 4>get over there as quickly as possible.

205
00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:27.720
<v Speaker 1>Former President Trump set to sue the Justice Department for

206
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:31.919
<v Speaker 1>one hundred million dollars in damages over the government's unprecedented

207
00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:35.639
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty two raid on mar A Lago lawyers, arguing

208
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:40.039
<v Speaker 1>it was done with clear intent to engage in political persecution. He,

209
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:42.240
<v Speaker 1>by the way, will sit down for an interview with

210
00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Elon Musk on X tonight interview will be hosted live

211
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:50.000
<v Speaker 1>on Trump's official account at five pm hour time. Former

212
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:52.360
<v Speaker 1>president was given access to the account after it was

213
00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:56.679
<v Speaker 1>suspended by the previous owners of Twitter over the January

214
00:10:56.720 --> 00:11:04.120
<v Speaker 1>sixth Capitol Riot. Musca endorsed him following last month's assassination attempt.

215
00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:12.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and he has not been shy about his political activities,

216
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:15.279
<v Speaker 4>I suppose lately. I mean, he's been very vocal about

217
00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:18.039
<v Speaker 4>politics and why he thinks it's important. I mean, he

218
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:21.039
<v Speaker 4>was upset with Gavin Newsom in California. That's why he

219
00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:24.360
<v Speaker 4>moved or will be moving SpaceX out of town, why

220
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:28.080
<v Speaker 4>he moved to Tesla headquarters back to Texas. There is

221
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:31.840
<v Speaker 4>a lot going on in Elon Musk's head, and I'll

222
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:34.080
<v Speaker 4>be curious to see how he handles this interview. Is

223
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:37.000
<v Speaker 4>it just going to be a slobber fest where he's

224
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:40.360
<v Speaker 4>just all over everything that Donald Trump does, or is

225
00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:43.960
<v Speaker 4>this an actual attempt to bring some sort of clarification

226
00:11:44.039 --> 00:11:44.879
<v Speaker 4>to some of the things.

227
00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:45.360
<v Speaker 2>Because I don't know.

228
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:48.720
<v Speaker 4>For some reason, it appears that reporters and anchors that

229
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:52.480
<v Speaker 4>interview Donald Trump can't pin him down on things now,

230
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:54.039
<v Speaker 4>and I don't know if it's if it would be

231
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:56.480
<v Speaker 4>different for somebody who's that's not in the business of it.

232
00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:59.519
<v Speaker 1>You can't sit there and just correct him over and

233
00:11:59.559 --> 00:12:02.399
<v Speaker 1>over again. Well that's not necessarily true. Well no, they

234
00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:05.039
<v Speaker 1>don't necessarily want to do that or whatever. You you'd

235
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:10.200
<v Speaker 1>spend the entire interview doing that doing that, And that's

236
00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:12.039
<v Speaker 1>why he's hard to pin down because there's just so

237
00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:15.039
<v Speaker 1>much misinformation or just a stream of consciousness.

238
00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:15.320
<v Speaker 3>Right.

239
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:21.679
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, there's also an article ap the Associated Press went

240
00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:25.799
<v Speaker 4>out and looked at previous debates that Kamala Harris has

241
00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:31.679
<v Speaker 4>been involved with and predicted basically what that would look

242
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:33.919
<v Speaker 4>like with her and him on stage.

243
00:12:34.039 --> 00:12:35.240
<v Speaker 2>At the same time, Hey.

244
00:12:35.080 --> 00:12:36.919
<v Speaker 1>Here's the other thing. For people who think that we

245
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:39.840
<v Speaker 1>are unfairly going after Kamala Harris for her lack of

246
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:45.240
<v Speaker 1>doing an interview. Yet, we could play her off the

247
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:48.840
<v Speaker 1>cuff remarks from interviews she has done. But we're not

248
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:53.080
<v Speaker 1>doing that out of fairness. We could be playing clips

249
00:12:53.600 --> 00:12:57.120
<v Speaker 1>of her sounding like a word salad when she's off

250
00:12:57.159 --> 00:13:00.399
<v Speaker 1>the cuff, because the teleprompter thing is one thing that's

251
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:01.039
<v Speaker 1>all scripted.

252
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:02.320
<v Speaker 2>When she's off the cuff.

253
00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:04.480
<v Speaker 1>She hasn't made a toll hell of a lot of

254
00:13:04.519 --> 00:13:08.279
<v Speaker 1>sense in outings we have seen. We could go back

255
00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:11.000
<v Speaker 1>and play that and try and parse out what exactly

256
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:13.759
<v Speaker 1>her policies would be based on her off the cuff remarks.

257
00:13:14.240 --> 00:13:16.320
<v Speaker 1>But that would be unfair, wouldn't it. So I think

258
00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:18.960
<v Speaker 1>we should get at least some points for that. We're

259
00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:19.720
<v Speaker 1>not doing that.

260
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:25.080
<v Speaker 4>Uh, it's there's no Listen to me, there's no winner

261
00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:28.600
<v Speaker 4>in either one of these, in either're one of these candidates.

262
00:13:29.159 --> 00:13:33.519
<v Speaker 4>It just this is not the right we as an

263
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:39.559
<v Speaker 4>American public, are not given the right choices going forward.

264
00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:45.919
<v Speaker 1>No, it's because the RNC, the DNC they are they

265
00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:49.120
<v Speaker 1>are their own industry, and they make it They work

266
00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:53.559
<v Speaker 1>together to make it very impossible for any other party.

267
00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:54.200
<v Speaker 2>To break through.

268
00:13:54.679 --> 00:13:59.279
<v Speaker 1>They make it very impossible by putting in rules that

269
00:13:59.799 --> 00:14:03.679
<v Speaker 1>are our forefathers were terrified of seeing come to light.

270
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Our forefathers, our forefathers talked about John Adams and his

271
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:15.639
<v Speaker 1>ultimate political evil would be partisanship. Two parties that are

272
00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:17.799
<v Speaker 1>too big to ever be brought down.

273
00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:20.200
<v Speaker 2>And it's just the machine.

274
00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:22.679
<v Speaker 4>You like you said, you're never going to take it

275
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:24.840
<v Speaker 4>down because it's the machine. And then all they do

276
00:14:24.960 --> 00:14:27.440
<v Speaker 4>is churn through your money to the tune of hundreds

277
00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:28.519

00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:58.480
<v Speaker 2>on the sidelines. We stay on the side. Why we're

306
00:15:58.480 --> 00:15:59.799
<v Speaker 2>going to stand on the pool deck?

307
00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:04.759
<v Speaker 1>We dive into the deep end. Yes, we for America.

308
00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:08.279
<v Speaker 4>Sometimes sometimes you got to go to that penalty box,

309
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:10.960
<v Speaker 4>but that means that you were in the arena in

310
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:11.519
<v Speaker 4>the first place.

311
00:16:11.639 --> 00:16:15.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes, you fought the valiant fight for this country.

312
00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:17.080
<v Speaker 2>Am I gonna let that horse ride itself?

313
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:18.039
<v Speaker 4>Hell?

314
00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:22.720
<v Speaker 6>No, love the show listen every day. I gotta tell you,

315
00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:26.639
<v Speaker 6>I'm an eighty year old woman. This is probably likely

316
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:29.360
<v Speaker 6>the last election I'll ever vote in.

317
00:16:29.799 --> 00:16:30.240
<v Speaker 2>Say that.

318
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:32.519
<v Speaker 5>And when it comes down to it, whether it's Kamala

319
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:39.720
<v Speaker 5>or Trump, neither is qualified. Both are inept. Yes, and

320
00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:42.519
<v Speaker 5>it's just a matter of choosing the lesser of two

321
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:45.679
<v Speaker 5>evils in your own mind and going from there.

322
00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:47.600
<v Speaker 2>Don't we deserve better?

323
00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:50.759
<v Speaker 1>We do deserve No, we don't. If you really want

324
00:16:50.759 --> 00:16:53.840
<v Speaker 1>to get down to it, look at us. We walk

325
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:56.919
<v Speaker 1>around with these stupid computers in our hand.

326
00:16:56.960 --> 00:16:59.480
<v Speaker 2>We don't talk to each other anymore. We play candy crush.

327
00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:03.960
<v Speaker 1>We only talk to AI we are a dumb society

328
00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:08.759
<v Speaker 1>that is distracted thousands of times a day by the

329
00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:14.119
<v Speaker 1>smallest of distractions. The tension span is equal to that

330
00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:17.359
<v Speaker 1>of a nat So yes, this is what we get.

331
00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:19.960
<v Speaker 1>We're not paying enough attention to what matters.

332
00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:24.240
<v Speaker 2>I was looking for something. No, I'm sorry, more positive

333
00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:24.480
<v Speaker 2>than that.

334
00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:27.160
<v Speaker 3>Hey, John from the riverside of John. Hey, I don't

335
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:32.319
<v Speaker 3>mean to complain, because complaining irritates me. But do you

336
00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:34.200
<v Speaker 3>know those people that you try and avoid because they

337
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:36.880
<v Speaker 3>just drain all the good energy out of you because

338
00:17:36.880 --> 00:17:38.960
<v Speaker 3>they're always negative. And what I feel like when I

339
00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:42.880
<v Speaker 3>listen to you too anymore, all negativity. It's like those

340
00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:44.599
<v Speaker 3>people you avoid because it's.

341
00:17:44.559 --> 00:17:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Negative all the time. Wow, And sadly that's what's happening

342
00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:50.160
<v Speaker 2>is I'm starting to avoid you too. No, trying to

343
00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:50.720
<v Speaker 2>be positive.

344
00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:53.400
<v Speaker 3>Not everything has to be political and negative.

345
00:17:53.640 --> 00:17:58.079
<v Speaker 2>Yes, play them some music, Yes.

346
00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:02.079
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, body body, boot booty, booty, possi booty, booty, booty,

347
00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:04.000
<v Speaker 6>booty boy boody.

348
00:18:04.039 --> 00:18:06.079
<v Speaker 2>You don't have to do that. Every time you're saying.

349
00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:11.759
<v Speaker 4>He's saying, I know you like it, my booty. That's

350
00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:15.519
<v Speaker 4>a positive thing. I know you like it, sure, and

351
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:19.559
<v Speaker 4>over and over and over again, he's re reiterating the point, right.

352
00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:20.039
<v Speaker 2>You know what?

353
00:18:20.079 --> 00:18:23.039
<v Speaker 1>I felt that guy's vibe when I read the story

354
00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:25.839
<v Speaker 1>about the boy's ice cream stand in Massachusetts.

355
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:28.200
<v Speaker 2>Have you heard this? No, so a boy was ready.

356
00:18:28.240 --> 00:18:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Sounds like a good story, though, it sounds like it is.

357
00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:33.920
<v Speaker 1>It's got a boy, and it's got ice cream, and

358
00:18:34.119 --> 00:18:36.480
<v Speaker 1>he's twelve. He started the ice cream stand and make

359
00:18:36.559 --> 00:18:39.680
<v Speaker 1>some money this summer. I saw some girls with a

360
00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:42.640
<v Speaker 1>lemonade stand around the corner from my house yesterday.

361
00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:46.160
<v Speaker 2>I love that kind of I love it. Yeah, capitalism

362
00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:48.000
<v Speaker 2>in the summertime, the.

363
00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:50.079
<v Speaker 1>Boys family decided that some of the proceeds would go

364
00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:54.000
<v Speaker 1>towards the boy's brother's hockey club, the Boston Bear Clubs.

365
00:18:54.039 --> 00:18:57.240
<v Speaker 1>In fact, well, that ice cream stand has now been

366
00:18:57.279 --> 00:19:01.680
<v Speaker 1>shut down because someone reported it the Norwood Health Department.

367
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:05.519
<v Speaker 2>That's not happy. Isn't that awful?

368
00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:08.079
<v Speaker 1>A little boy trying to make some money for his

369
00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:11.839
<v Speaker 1>brother's hockey club in the summer when people are dying

370
00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:15.039
<v Speaker 1>to have some ice cream on a hot day.

371
00:19:15.599 --> 00:19:17.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, it sounds nice, doesn't it.

372
00:19:17.559 --> 00:19:19.720
<v Speaker 4>Ice cream sounds very sure, that's what we should be

373
00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:20.440
<v Speaker 4>paying attention to.

374
00:19:21.359 --> 00:19:26.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, the Olympics are over. The Paralympics start in a

375
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:27.000
<v Speaker 2>couple of weeks.

376
00:19:31.119 --> 00:19:36.359
<v Speaker 4>Americans Jordan childs, of course, in the controversy over her

377
00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:41.079
<v Speaker 4>bronze medal, Steph Curried is amazing performance in the basketball game,

378
00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:45.200
<v Speaker 4>the women's another gold in basketball, the final gold medal

379
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:48.720
<v Speaker 4>that was awarded. I mean, there's some great, great stories

380
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:53.039
<v Speaker 4>that came out of it. And then my favorite.

381
00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Story, yeah, was the Australian breakdancer Reagan. Forget all the

382
00:19:56.960 --> 00:20:00.480
<v Speaker 1>gold medals we won, tying China, the whole bit, running

383
00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:02.359
<v Speaker 1>away with one hundred and forty or what have you

384
00:20:03.240 --> 00:20:05.200
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to metals across the board. But the

385
00:20:05.240 --> 00:20:10.519
<v Speaker 1>breakdancer Reygun goes viral. She failed to score a single point.

386
00:20:11.279 --> 00:20:15.160
<v Speaker 1>And as one poster wrote, and this is brilliant, possessed

387
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:18.640
<v Speaker 1>by the spirit of Julia Stiles, because if there's one

388
00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:21.799
<v Speaker 1>horrible dance performance in a movie, it is saved. The

389
00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:26.400
<v Speaker 1>last dance at Juilliard that was atrocious, that should never

390
00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:30.759
<v Speaker 1>have been presented. And the fact that the fictitional judgers

391
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:34.839
<v Speaker 1>and the movie thought that was great is belooney. It

392
00:20:34.920 --> 00:20:39.319
<v Speaker 1>is great, a blooney And so was that breakdance routine.

393
00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:42.960
<v Speaker 1>One of our friends says, my Australian girlfriend referred to

394
00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:46.480
<v Speaker 1>it as Australia's darkest hour. She said that in a

395
00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:49.119
<v Speaker 1>country of twenty five million people, many of whom are

396
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:52.799
<v Speaker 1>actually Indian and Chinese immigrants, the world was officially introduced

397
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:59.000
<v Speaker 1>to the typical native Australian woman, which she described as overconfident, underqualified, delusional.

398
00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:03.240
<v Speaker 4>Well, I suppose the good news is she'll never do

399
00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:06.519
<v Speaker 4>it again, at least not on a national international stage,

400
00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:09.640
<v Speaker 4>because there is no plan to bring breaking back for

401
00:21:09.759 --> 00:21:13.880
<v Speaker 4>the la Olympics in twenty eight She's a thirty six

402
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:19.839
<v Speaker 4>year old lecturer at Maccarie University, said that she has

403
00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:23.200
<v Speaker 4>faced one of the most brutal social media backlashes of

404
00:21:23.319 --> 00:21:27.680
<v Speaker 4>the entire games. This was a listen first. I was

405
00:21:27.720 --> 00:21:31.519
<v Speaker 4>reading through this article from Fox Sports about the genesis

406
00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:35.960
<v Speaker 4>of how she came to be the representative for Australia

407
00:21:36.119 --> 00:21:40.200
<v Speaker 4>in this sport. There is so much and I mean,

408
00:21:40.200 --> 00:21:42.839
<v Speaker 4>this is an I shouldn't say nothing because I'm sure

409
00:21:42.839 --> 00:21:44.720
<v Speaker 4>that there are some people who are listening who are

410
00:21:44.839 --> 00:21:48.480
<v Speaker 4>deeply involved in breaking. This is a sport that has

411
00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:52.920
<v Speaker 4>such a small footprint in the world, but had a massive,

412
00:21:53.359 --> 00:21:56.640
<v Speaker 4>massive ripple effect when it was announced in twenty nineteen

413
00:21:57.000 --> 00:22:00.000
<v Speaker 4>that it was going to be part of the Paris Olympics,

414
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:05.720
<v Speaker 4>to the point whar that in Australia it was completely disorganized.

415
00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:08.559
<v Speaker 4>When in twenty nineteen it was announced that it was

416
00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:11.240
<v Speaker 4>going to be there, there was no this is going

417
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:16.200
<v Speaker 4>to blow you away. Australia had no recognized national federation

418
00:22:16.440 --> 00:22:18.640
<v Speaker 4>of break dancing in twenty nineteen.

419
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:24.160
<v Speaker 2>So she said, why don't we put it together? And

420
00:22:24.200 --> 00:22:26.599
<v Speaker 2>that's the best she got. You would have done a

421
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:27.720
<v Speaker 2>better job. They did.

422
00:22:27.759 --> 00:22:31.119
<v Speaker 4>Hold October of last year, they did a breaking championship

423
00:22:31.160 --> 00:22:34.960
<v Speaker 4>at Sydney Town Hall, fifty two competitors, thirty seven be

424
00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:39.960
<v Speaker 4>boys and fifteen be girls, and that she took gold

425
00:22:40.119 --> 00:22:41.599
<v Speaker 4>in the be girls category.

426
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:45.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how, I don't know. She did look

427
00:22:45.799 --> 00:22:46.960
<v Speaker 2>oddly confident.

428
00:22:48.119 --> 00:22:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Yes, like if I put together that performance, I would

429
00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:52.400
<v Speaker 1>not have that.

430
00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:56.799
<v Speaker 4>Bravado she You would have been smiling out of I

431
00:22:56.799 --> 00:22:58.279
<v Speaker 4>would be crying embarrassment.

432
00:22:58.480 --> 00:23:01.799
<v Speaker 2>Yes, not smile out of confidence. I would like be

433
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:03.119
<v Speaker 2>hitting myself like this.

434
00:23:05.880 --> 00:23:08.640
<v Speaker 4>Obviously, the Olympics coming to la in twenty twenty eight.

435
00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:12.240
<v Speaker 4>The eighty four Olympics here in la is widely considered

436
00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:17.039
<v Speaker 4>one of the most financially successful Summer Games programs that

437
00:23:17.079 --> 00:23:19.880
<v Speaker 4>we've ever had. Part of the reason why is we

438
00:23:19.920 --> 00:23:22.119
<v Speaker 4>didn't have to build a bunch of new stuff for

439
00:23:22.200 --> 00:23:23.200
<v Speaker 4>the eighty four Olympics.

440
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:24.160
<v Speaker 2>We had it in place.

441
00:23:24.720 --> 00:23:26.559
<v Speaker 4>The question is whether we're going to be able to

442
00:23:27.240 --> 00:23:31.799
<v Speaker 4>replicate that for twenty twenty eight. Former Mayor Eric Garcetti

443
00:23:31.920 --> 00:23:35.240
<v Speaker 4>said he expects the city would turn about a billion

444
00:23:35.279 --> 00:23:40.119
<v Speaker 4>dollars in profit in the twenty twenty eight Olympics. There

445
00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:43.559
<v Speaker 4>was a question posed on the Internet of which sports

446
00:23:43.839 --> 00:23:46.079
<v Speaker 4>that are currently in the Olympics would you want to

447
00:23:46.119 --> 00:23:49.440
<v Speaker 4>get rid of? And it was an interesting look at

448
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:52.440
<v Speaker 4>kind of the way people from different countries look at

449
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:55.799
<v Speaker 4>some of the sports that we watch on a regular basis.

450
00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:59.359
<v Speaker 4>They said race walking was the number one thing they

451
00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:02.160
<v Speaker 4>wanted to get rid of in the Olympics because it

452
00:24:02.200 --> 00:24:06.240
<v Speaker 4>looks really weird. It's this, yeah, because you have to

453
00:24:06.279 --> 00:24:09.000
<v Speaker 4>have one foot on the ground at all times, so

454
00:24:09.079 --> 00:24:10.440
<v Speaker 4>you do that as fast as you can.

455
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:12.599
<v Speaker 1>I come from a long line of women who do this,

456
00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:15.480
<v Speaker 1>especially like when they're shopping, just like fast walkers.

457
00:24:15.519 --> 00:24:17.519
<v Speaker 2>There's a lot of arm swinging fast walkers.

458
00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:21.920
<v Speaker 4>Another thought was the modern steeple chase needed to be

459
00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:24.640
<v Speaker 4>replaced with its original version. The steeple chase is the

460
00:24:24.680 --> 00:24:26.680
<v Speaker 4>one where they're running around the track. I don't know

461
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:28.559
<v Speaker 4>how long, it's five thousand meters or whatever it is,

462
00:24:28.839 --> 00:24:34.480
<v Speaker 4>and then they jump over different they jump over different

463
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:37.920
<v Speaker 4>height hurdles basically, and then one of them is a

464
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:40.839
<v Speaker 4>water jump where they landed the original steeplechase.

465
00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:41.480
<v Speaker 2>Tigers.

466
00:24:41.799 --> 00:24:44.279
<v Speaker 4>Well, the original steeplechase you did out in the woods,

467
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:47.960
<v Speaker 4>I mean naked. Well, there's that, I mean, but that

468
00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:52.240
<v Speaker 4>would have been very early on. But you would do

469
00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:57.200
<v Speaker 4>it in rivers, creeks, hedges that you'd have to jump over.

470
00:24:57.279 --> 00:24:58.880
<v Speaker 4>I don't think you want to jump over a hedge

471
00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:02.319
<v Speaker 4>with your doodlely bits hanging. You don't want to catch

472
00:25:02.359 --> 00:25:03.079
<v Speaker 4>those on a branch.

473
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:06.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, they clear the hurdles while they clear the hedge.

474
00:25:06.680 --> 00:25:10.559
<v Speaker 4>Men's football, the soccer competition, they said that should be

475
00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:14.079
<v Speaker 4>done with, done away with because of the rules about

476
00:25:14.119 --> 00:25:17.519
<v Speaker 4>who can play. FIFA apparently has very strict rules about

477
00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:24.640
<v Speaker 4>professionals playing in in the Olympic Games, dressage, anything involving

478
00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:28.799
<v Speaker 4>horses or equestrian events because of the potential to injure

479
00:25:29.799 --> 00:25:30.440
<v Speaker 4>the horses.

480
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:33.240
<v Speaker 1>The equestrian events, remember we learned last week were the

481
00:25:33.279 --> 00:25:37.519
<v Speaker 1>only ones where you weren't nude Originally, if there was

482
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:39.200
<v Speaker 1>a horse, you had pants on.

483
00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:41.000
<v Speaker 2>That's how good.

484
00:25:41.079 --> 00:25:44.400
<v Speaker 4>Actually, that's probably a pretty good rule for all of life. Sure,

485
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:48.279
<v Speaker 4>if there is a horse, keep your pants on. Others

486
00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:51.559
<v Speaker 4>called out boxing because of the scoring system that's involved.

487
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:52.640
<v Speaker 2>Golf is boring.

488
00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:55.920
<v Speaker 4>Surfing has no place because there's too much natural variance

489
00:25:56.279 --> 00:25:57.039
<v Speaker 4>in the waves.

490
00:25:57.319 --> 00:25:57.880
<v Speaker 2>That's true.

491
00:25:58.079 --> 00:26:01.359
<v Speaker 4>And I had a conversation with a friend who said,

492
00:26:01.759 --> 00:26:06.279
<v Speaker 4>if you can't measure it objectively, then how could you

493
00:26:06.359 --> 00:26:10.200
<v Speaker 4>possibly ever have an actual competition between two people.

494
00:26:10.640 --> 00:26:14.440
<v Speaker 2>So I looked up old sports that have been.

495
00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:20.160
<v Speaker 4>X made from the old Olympics, and there's a bunch

496
00:26:20.160 --> 00:26:22.680
<v Speaker 4>of variations on the things that we see anyway, Like

497
00:26:22.799 --> 00:26:26.000
<v Speaker 4>the sixty meter dash was part of the Olympics for

498
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:28.519
<v Speaker 4>a couple of years. What about eighty meter hurdles? What

499
00:26:28.559 --> 00:26:31.480
<v Speaker 4>about the tug of war? Tug of War was a

500
00:26:31.519 --> 00:26:38.880
<v Speaker 4>good one. They did walking events for women, especially stone throws.

501
00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:41.799
<v Speaker 2>What about motor boating that was in there.

502
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:44.279
<v Speaker 4>I saw that and that's what I was laughing at

503
00:26:44.359 --> 00:26:47.119
<v Speaker 4>during the break. I'm twelve, but I don't know what

504
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:50.160
<v Speaker 4>it actually involved. Was it racing a motor boat?

505
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:51.799
<v Speaker 2>You don't know what motor boating is.

506
00:26:51.839 --> 00:26:54.799
<v Speaker 4>Well, I just I just want to make sure I'm

507
00:26:54.839 --> 00:26:58.079
<v Speaker 4>thinking of the right thing. They used to do the

508
00:26:58.200 --> 00:27:01.119
<v Speaker 4>rope climb. You did rope climb in junior high They

509
00:27:01.200 --> 00:27:04.960
<v Speaker 4>used to do that as part of the gymnastics events

510
00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:09.880
<v Speaker 4>in the Olympics. They also did something called plunge for distance. Now,

511
00:27:09.880 --> 00:27:11.319
<v Speaker 4>this is what I was talking about the other day.

512
00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:13.599
<v Speaker 4>I was trying to describe this. Stand on the side

513
00:27:13.599 --> 00:27:15.680
<v Speaker 4>of the pool. By the way, every nine year old

514
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:18.119
<v Speaker 4>boy has done this. Stand by the side of the pool,

515
00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:25.960
<v Speaker 4>dive in, and you either your head breaks the top

516
00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:31.640
<v Speaker 4>of the water or you're underwater for a minute, whichever happens. First,

517
00:27:32.240 --> 00:27:35.839
<v Speaker 4>they measure how far you've traveled. So you dive in,

518
00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:38.279
<v Speaker 4>you get one sweep with your arms, and then you

519
00:27:38.359 --> 00:27:41.400
<v Speaker 4>have to be motionless for a minute or until your

520
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:43.680
<v Speaker 4>head breaks the surface of the water, and they measure

521
00:27:43.720 --> 00:27:46.200
<v Speaker 4>that for distance. That's plunge for distance.

522
00:27:46.720 --> 00:27:48.160
<v Speaker 2>That's what they do. That's what they had.

523
00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:51.839
<v Speaker 4>Underwater swimming was part of it. They've had a whole

524
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:55.279
<v Speaker 4>bunch of different shooting teams. They did at one time

525
00:27:55.359 --> 00:27:59.599
<v Speaker 4>a team race, which was everybody on your team, like

526
00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:03.200
<v Speaker 4>a four person relay for example, you're all running a race,

527
00:28:03.279 --> 00:28:04.799
<v Speaker 4>you do it at the same time, and then you

528
00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:09.400
<v Speaker 4>get a combined score based on how everybody in your

529
00:28:09.480 --> 00:28:10.440
<v Speaker 4>team finishes.

530
00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:11.279
<v Speaker 2>You get points.

531
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:18.640
<v Speaker 4>Basically basque polota, baseball, croquet, field, handball. They used to

532
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:23.079
<v Speaker 4>do figure skating in the Summer Olympics. Golf, of course,

533
00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:27.839
<v Speaker 4>has come back, karate, lacrosse. I'm kind of surprised that

534
00:28:28.039 --> 00:28:33.440
<v Speaker 4>lacrosse and cricket aren't involved in current modern summer elne.

535
00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:35.240
<v Speaker 2>And ask polota? Is that just handball?

536
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:41.240
<v Speaker 4>I don't know exactly, known as the fastest sport in

537
00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:45.240
<v Speaker 4>the world. Only two teams compete. Only one match was

538
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:48.480
<v Speaker 4>played on that in that Olympics back at nineteen hundred.

539
00:28:49.799 --> 00:28:53.000
<v Speaker 4>I think it's like handball against a wall kind of handball,

540
00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:53.680
<v Speaker 4>isn't that?

541
00:28:54.079 --> 00:28:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like as.

542
00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:57.839
<v Speaker 4>Opposed to Olympic handball, which is like soccer, but you're

543
00:28:57.920 --> 00:29:02.119
<v Speaker 4>using your hands the whole time. What happened?

544
00:29:02.200 --> 00:29:05.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's too many variations of ballgames.

545
00:29:06.359 --> 00:29:09.680
<v Speaker 4>And then motor boating was in nineteen oh eight. Technically

546
00:29:09.720 --> 00:29:12.880
<v Speaker 4>it was called powerboating. Not as much fun as I

547
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:16.200
<v Speaker 4>was saying motor boating. What do you think would happen?

548
00:29:16.279 --> 00:29:19.200
<v Speaker 4>Never mind, I'm not gonna answer whatever was about to

549
00:29:19.200 --> 00:29:24.640
<v Speaker 4>come out of your mouth. Trending stories, a check in

550
00:29:24.680 --> 00:29:29.200
<v Speaker 4>on World War III, A check in on Jason Nathanson

551

<v Speaker 4>had a big pickleball tournament over the weekend.

552
00:29:32.160 --> 00:29:32.720
<v Speaker 2>Did he really?

553
00:29:32.799 --> 00:29:35.640
<v Speaker 4>Oh he didn't, but there was one on TV and
