Take a look behind the curtain 19 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,680 with a real whistle blower, an American patriot. 20 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,880 Prepare to embrace the uncomfortable truth because this 21 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,520 program has no time for comforting lies. 22 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,800 Here is civil liberties enthusiast, Second Amendment 23 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,480 defender, and recovering FBI agent Kyle Seraphin. 24 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,200 Well, hello my friends, welcome to the Kyle Seraphin show. 25 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,800 Merry Christmas on this what, the third day of Christmas, I 26 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,040 believe it is December the 27th. It's a Friday. 27 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,240 That makes it a friendly Friday. And we've got a special in 28 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,000 studio guest. My father is joining me. 29 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,800 He's sitting right across the room, so we'll bring him on in 30 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,200 just a moment. For those of you who are 31 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,600 monitoring the chat, you will see there is AC Seraphin hanging 32 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,040 out there and Charlie will be with us momentarily. 33 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,280 All right, so I got a whole host of things. 34 00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:00,240 It seems like the world lost its mind while we were all opening 35 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,400 presents and hanging out, and some of the world lost its mind 36 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,040 while drinking it seems like. And maybe some people were even 37 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,639 drinking on Navy ships or they just didn't get trained up on 38 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,000 how to use the technology properly. 39 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:13,920 The question is, is everything an OP? 40 00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:16,760 Are we all just being conned? Are we all being screwed around 41 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,680 with? Are they just twisting our 42 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,000 nipples? Is that what it is? 43 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,880 Like an uncle that just had too much to drink? 44 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,760 We're going to get into some really strange stuff. 45 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,480 And every story I have I feel like is weirder than the last. 46 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,280 Whether it's trolling from Donald Trump saying he's going 47 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,360 to annex Panama or Greenland, or whether it's Elon Musk telling 48 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,200 everybody that immigrants have to come in here because 49 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,600 Americans are too stupid to do tech. 50 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,080 We're going the whole gamut. And then, of course, out in the 51 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,880 wide world of everything, there are things getting shot down. 52 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,160 We are seeing the Koreans now on a second impeachment in two 53 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,120 weeks of their second president. It's just a mess. 54 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,640 But we'll see if alcohol has something to do with it, too, 55 00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:57,960 because we're going to cover down on some of our absolute 56 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,960 favorite leftist weirdos before we get deep into the drunk, 57 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,240 which is where we're going. Let's go ahead and say thanks to 58 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:05,760 my friends over at Patriot Coolers. 59 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,400 If you guys know, you know Patriot coolers.com. 60 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,480 If you need your white wine spritzer to stay cold, there's 61 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,760 certainly a great option.

I had the the Tumblr in the back 76 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,680 of it and she was drinking from it while walking and not 77 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,480 impaling herself. It's a it's a rigid straw. 78 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,040 It's an outstanding product. Even the little kid can figure 79 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,320 out how to use it. So if you guys are interested, 80 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,040 check out my friends over at Patriot Coolers. 81 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,400 And again, look in the show description in the notes. 82 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,960 You'll always find a link to the Kyle Seraphin collection, which 83 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,720 is to say the suspendables collection. 84 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,200 You don't need to put any stickers on. 85 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,800 You guys can just get started by having it pre engraved from 86 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,920 those folks. We really appreciate them and 87 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:26,830 let's get into it. OK guys, we're going to get into 88 00:04:26,870 --> 00:04:29,430 it with panel discussions. It's the first time I've tried 89 00:04:29,430 --> 00:04:31,270 this thing out. We've got Steve, friend and my 90 00:04:31,270 --> 00:04:33,110 father Charlie sitting on the other side of the room. 91 00:04:33,110 --> 00:04:35,230 Gentlemen, welcome to our friendly Friday. 92 00:04:36,390 --> 00:04:39,270 Thank you, I did not have Purple Nurple as my bingo card 93 00:04:39,270 --> 00:04:43,350 reference for their Friday after Christmas, but good to see you. 94 00:04:43,470 --> 00:04:44,630 And good to see you, Mr. Seraphin. 95 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,120 Oh, I left him muted. Sorry, Dad. 96 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,280 There you go. Nice to see you, Steve. 97 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,840 Steve, one of the the memes that runs around or like the sort of 98 00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:56,680 a new comment that I keep seeing is various different videos of 99 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:01,000 guys walking from movie scenes, kind of cocky walking in. 100 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,080 And it says me walking into the Christmas party, realizing that 101 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,240 I'm now the right wing uncle that all the aunts are upset 102 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,880 about. That's the thing now. 103 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,600 That's that's where the purple nurple came from. 104 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,000 It's just called winning at that point, right? 105 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,320 I can't wait for that. Unfortunately I'm the only child 106 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,120 who has children in my family, so I'll never get the chance to 107 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,000 be like the vast right wing conspiracy guy. 108 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,800 You can't radicalize the other people's kids. 109 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,920 Yeah, I've been seeing that. So we have a kind of a small 110 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,760 circle of folks that have been sending us Christmas cards. 111 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,840 And all my friends seem to have kids, at least the ones that 112 00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:35,080 send Christmas cards. It's a good sorting hat, right? 113 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,120 You get to realize who has kids and who doesn't, because if you 114 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,720 don't have kids, you're probably not sending Christmas cards to 115 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,680 everybody. You know the rector of my 116 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,240 dormitory in college, Father V He's actually a good follow. 117 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,280 On AIR did you say rector rector? 118 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,920 Yeah, he's like the boss priest. I went to allegedly Catholic 119 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,880 University. And he made a comment during one 120 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,240 of his homilies where he was talking about how the Christmas 121 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,040 cards he was receiving from people or members of his former 122 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,960 congregation, they had pictures of dogs as their children. 123 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,440 And he was saying how that was such a problem, how people were 124 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,920 starting to view their fur babies as actual babies. 125 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,000 And at the time, it's kind of like you're 1819 years old and 126 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,120 you're like rolling your eyes at it. 127 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,480 But the more I've seen how that's impacted as things have 128 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,240 gone on in the decade and a half since I was in that spot saying 129 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,280 that, Yep, Father V nailed it. We don't have people who are 130 00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:25,240 interested in making people anymore when they can just put 131 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,600 their Yorkie in a carriage and push it along. 132 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,360 And maybe the Yorkie can figure out how to drink out of a 133 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:30,080 Patriot cooler. I. 134 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,920 Want to go to the senior Seraphin here on this. 135 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:37,400 Why is it shameless plugs? Why an image right there? 136 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,240 I'm just looking for the Yorkie and the Patriot cooler. 137 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,240 It's doable, yeah. Yeah, you have to set it very 138 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,560 low. What? 139 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,040 What happened between your generation and my generation 140 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,200 that that skipped out on making A next generation? 141 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,920 Why? Why is it starting to winnow? 142 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,680 I have no idea. Well, you were around a bunch. 143 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,240 Of, I mean, I've witnessed it as you have and it's just as 144 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,480 strange to me. I don't know what the odds are. 145 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:09,640 I guess 33% of those people who are in the world today have 146 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,640 decided to have children. I have six children and two of 147 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,880 my six children have children. So that's 33%, right? 148 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:22,200 Steve, you're the math guy here. 33.3 but 33 A. 149 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,240 Little more than 33. Thank you. 150 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,120 He's not just the math guy, he's also the precision guy, so we 151 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:28,040 can always. Count on. 152 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,760 Hey, we love that about him. Yeah, he's the guy all. 153 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:33,320 Right. I don't know why. 154 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,040 I mean, why don't people have kids? 155 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,920 Why don't you know, let's do a survey. 156 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:43,120 Why don't you have kids? Too selfish, too busy, too many 157 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,680 things on television. 70 inch television. 158 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,280 There you go. You want to just get that out 159 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,640 right now, Steve, so you can just get get the folks you got 160 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,240 to understand. Steve started by coming in hot, 161 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,560 explaining how much he loves his wife. 162 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,920 I do love my wife and the fact of the matter is that I 163 00:07:59,920 --> 00:08:01,520 appreciate her perspective on things. 164 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,680 She's the the gas pedal and I'm the brakes in the financial 165 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,800 relationship that we have. And unfortunately I wasn't there 166 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,680 yesterday. So there were no brakes on that 167 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,560 vehicle when she came home with a 75 inch television to replace 168 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,000 the one that burned out in our house. 169 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,560 I know she did her her homework. I know she made several trips 170 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,720 back and forth between stores to find herself a deal. 171 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,880 But when I unloaded that thing and it was larger than me, I 172 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,040 thought maybe I shouldn't have checked out of this decision and 173 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,600 been more involved. It is back to the garden, right? 174 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,159 There's a reason that Eve ate of the fruit, because Adam is at 175 00:08:33,159 --> 00:08:34,159 fault. He wasn't there. 176 00:08:34,159 --> 00:08:38,559 He was too busy gaming, checking in on his fantasy football team. 177 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,039 Same thing. I'm at fault. 178 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,679 Yeah. I think that is the answer, 179 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,360 Carl. I want to share that because if 180 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,920 you remember back in the day, they used to have blackouts, 181 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,320 right? And they always said that a lot 182 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,720 of babies were created during blackouts. 183 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:57,000 New York had a rolling blackout and then there were a lot of 184 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,200 pregnancies that resulted in children nine months later. 185 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,720 And with today's technology and the improvements in technology 186 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,840 and you're carrying your computer with you in your 187 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,560 pocket, there's just, there are no blackouts. 188 00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:13,440 You're never disconnected. You're never really alone. 189 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,440 The the telephone is on the night stand. 190 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,440 It's right there ready for instant messaging. 191 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,520 So there's really no time to either create or raise children. 192 00:09:23,560 --> 00:09:27,760 And so it's the technology. I think that's a good answer. 193 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,840 Way to go, Steve. We got to in a roundabout way. 194 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,160 That's a really awkward statement. 195 00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaking of the children, let's lead off with this because she's 196 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,440 in the news. And if anybody knows anything 197 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:45,080 about Nancy Pelosi, the speaker emeritus emeritus, I guess, of 198 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,560 the of the House, we know that the thing that she joined 199 00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:50,520 politics was always about the children. 200 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,440 It had nothing to do with enriching herself or her lust 201 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:57,600 for power or drinking or whatever it is from her own 202 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,440 mouth. It was about children. 203 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,200 And I just found this clip highly interesting at this time 204 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,640 of year because there's always a drunken aunt telling you things 205 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,320 that you can't believe at every family gathering. 206 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,640 And here is America's drunken aunt telling us about the 207 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,960 children was necessary for me to run again because my goal was to 208 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,920 make sure that what's his name never stepped foot in the in the 209 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,440 White House again. And that was part of my mission 210 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,600 for the children. My whole I went from housewives 211 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,160 to House member to House Speaker for the children, one in five in 212 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,240 poverty, living in America and going to sleep hungry at night, 213 00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:40,080 that they were my mission in the Congress. 214 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,120 They were my priority. Their health, their education, 215 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,800 the economic security of their families, the safe environment, 216 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,400 including safe from gun violence, in which they could 217 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,600 thrive. A world at peace in which they 218 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,160 could reach their fulfillment. And our country could too with 219 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,960 them. So that was my mission. 220 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:03,360 The, the, the difference between the visions of the Democrats for 221 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,640 the people addressing their kitchen table issues and the 222 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:13,160 other side is so vast that I'll have to put out my, my enjoyment 223 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,520 of other things for a while until we get that job done. 224 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,760 OK. And she's obviously decided to 225 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,600 stop putting away her enjoyment and enjoyed some things. 226 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,240 And she was in, I think, Luxembourg and allegedly lost 227 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,760 her footing on a marble staircase, fell while on a 228 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,040 congressional trip for no particular reason, and had to be 229 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,160 flown back to the United States to have emergency hip surgery. 230 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,480 The explanation is actually quite simple. 231 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,440 There's nothing nefarious. There's certainly not a martini 232 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,360 involved. The explanation is her 233 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,600 spokesperson, a guy named I'm sorry, that wasn't her 234 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,080 spokesperson. This is Representative Michael 235 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,440 McCaul from Texas, not a spokesperson at all, wrote 236 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,840 quote. She likes to wear high heels, 237 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,480 very high. She was on one of her last steps 238 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,160 on this marble staircase that didn't have a railing. 239 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,360 It's the obviously the fault of the stairs and the railing 240 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,640 blacking. She lost her footing and she 241 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,840 fell to the ground. But now she'll get a new hit out 242 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,600 of the deal. That's the story, gentlemen. 243 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,560 Dad, you've met Nancy before. Yeah, and I was just thinking, 244 00:12:09,560 --> 00:12:11,920 the housewife, she was on the San Francisco Board of 245 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:16,160 Supervisors in the 1970s. She was very much involved in 246 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,400 politics. So when did she have time to be 247 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,720 a housewife? Maybe she had a full career as a 248 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:26,360 housewife and raised adult children before 1974. 249 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,120 So let's see. That would make her 22 and 74. 250 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,720 You do the math, Steve. I'm going to count on you for 251 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:33,520 that. But. 252 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,520 Wow. She's older than she says. 253 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:43,680 If that's true, no false. And Steve, what about the double 254 00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:45,280 eyebrows? Were those real eyebrows? 255 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,200 Was that AI? I think that that's just the, 256 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,640 the fact that these people have no soul and they, they've sold 257 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,000 their souls for power and all the accoutrements behind it. 258 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,560 It manifests itself later in life, which is why you see the 259 00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:01,720 inside coming to the outside. It's after all the collagen has 260 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,920 left them and there's no amounts of surgery that they can do to 261 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,280 hide that fact. Those are legit. 262 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,920 The double eye eyebrow looks. That's just a shadow from her 263 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,280 caved eyeballs. And she talked about giving away 264 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,960 up on the the more comfortable things in life. 265 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,400 You know that the 25,000 $1000 refrigerator that she has in her 266 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,520 house with all like the $15 a carton ice cream and she's, 267 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,160 she's really like slumming it for the people, it's for the 268 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,360 children, don't you know? It's for the children. 269 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,480 She's not my favorite drunk person in Congress. 270 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,680 We actually had someone else who used to be in Congress now is 271 00:13:33,680 --> 00:13:36,520 sitting over at the Naval Observatory for last couple 272 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,000 days. And I didn't realize how 273 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,880 multicultural this country really was until I started 274 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,680 learning a little bit about Kwanzaa and some of the most 275 00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:46,840 important principles. This is not a gag. 276 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,680 This is a real video that was really taped by a real person 277 00:13:50,680 --> 00:13:55,640 who really ran for president in this country and we're told was 278 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,440 this close. And every bit of that is 279 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,120 shocking. Again, let's go to America's 280 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,000 second favorite drunk auntie, because she also has no children 281 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,240 of her own. She's not running for the 282 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,680 children per SE. She's running for that principle 283 00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:09,320 of Chakawakala or whatever it's called. 284 00:14:09,680 --> 00:14:13,320 Stand by for Kamala. We narrowly dodge this bullet, 285 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:14,880 ladies and. Gentlemen, you know my sister 286 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,400 and I, we grew up celebrating Kwanzaa every year. 287 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,120 Our family would in our extended family, we would gather around 288 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,960 across multiple generations. And we tell stories. 289 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,080 The kids would sit on the carpet and the elders would sit in 290 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:33,080 chairs and and we would like the candles and of course afterwards 291 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,800 have a beautiful meal and of. Course, there was always the 292 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,200 discussion of the seven principles and my favorite, I 293 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,920 have to tell you, was always the one about self determination, 294 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,880 Kuji Chagalia. And you know, essentially it's. 295 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:52,320 About, you know, it's about be, be and do, be the person you 296 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,360 want to be and do the things you want to do and do the things 297 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,080 that need to be done. It's about not letting anyone 298 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,680 write our future for us, but instead going out and writing it 299 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,880 for ourselves. And that principle motivates me 300 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:11,080 today as we seek to confront the challenges facing our country 301 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,880 and to build a brighter future for all Americans. 302 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,120 So, all right, that was my coochie Tagalia. 303 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,760 Can you just address your thoughts on that one there, Dad? 304 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,640 Was was always my favorite principal as well. 305 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,960 Do you remember any of the other seven, out of curiosity? 306 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,720 Does she? The rest of them I I they 307 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:35,800 slipped my memory but it I don't know why I but I was alive and 308 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,280 well. I I found all that. 309 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,840 Kwanzaa was invented, so I know that, and I believe it was 310 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,880 invented in the East Bay when I lived in the San Francisco Bay 311 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,680 Area. So I was, I was close to the 312 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,560 creation of Kwanzaa. That's sort of like almost being 313 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,320 in Bethlehem, you know, back 2000 years ago. 314 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,400 It's very similar. Kwanzaa was created in 1966, so 315 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:57,960 that would have put you, I think, in high school. 316 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:00,160 Yeah. Oh, OK. 317 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,320 I thought it was in the 70s. Sixty 6. 318 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,480 It didn't really take on because most people couldn't pronounce 319 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,120 the seven principles. Steve, I'm going to give you 320 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:09,840 some of the principles which I've pulled up here on the 321 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:14,720 screen. 7 principles of Kwanzaa are Umaja. 322 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,080 Please correct me in the comments if I didn't get that. 323 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:21,160 That's the principle of unity. Cuji Kamalia, the self 324 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,440 determination, which is obviously which is Kamala's 325 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,760 favorite Ujima. That's collective work and 326 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,800 responsibility. Sounds very Marxist coming from 327 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,840 a Marxist professor of Africana studies and activist author. 328 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:36,680 A person named Ronald McKinley Everest, but he changed his name 329 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,480 to Doctor Malajanana Karaja Karenja. 330 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,360 Totally irrelevant. The easiest principle to 331 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,560 remember is NIA, which is interesting that Kamala didn't 332 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:47,720 choose that one. That's purpose. 333 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:48,960 You could see that being a thing. 334 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:54,440 She doesn't chose choose kuumba, which is creativity, Imani, 335 00:16:54,560 --> 00:17:01,880 which is faith and ujamaa which is cooperative economics, also 336 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,160 known as socialism. So anyway, this is fun and I 337 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,200 just I like to know that holidays that were created we're 338 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:13,280 also celebrated by the so-called Christian, the maybe Hindu, not 339 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,359 really clear religious situation of the Kamala Harris, the 340 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,680 cultural chameleon that pops up. Do you have a favorite principle 341 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,800 that I've just read to you? I'm going to go back to the Kuja 342 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,160 Kamaliya because it just reminds me of them thinking like that 343 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,320 sounds like, could you Kamala answer this question? 344 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,520 Because if that was early enough in the administration where they 345 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,280 thought that she could actually string a thought together and 346 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,920 then she started doing the word salad, the bee and the do and 347 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,000 and Joe Biden, you know, guess what? 348 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,800 By the way, he needed to have somebody who just has who is 349 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,640 more black. So they're like, hey, Kuja 350 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,840 Kamala, could you go after the Kuja Kamaliya and be more black 351 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,440 for us? And she went out there and crap 352 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,320 the bed like she always does. You just Biden and gave me the 353 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,120 comp, the combination of the Dana Carvey, which is fantastic. 354 00:17:58,120 --> 00:17:59,760 Really, really, really well done. 355 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,480 Yeah, I like to crap the bed myself, but. 356 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,600 Joe Biden does that. The Biden does that all the 357 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:06,840 time. Guess what, by the way? 358 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,240 Yeah, he has. That's all very upsetting. 359 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,080 Thank you for sharing all of those horrible images for me. 360 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,760 I want to go ahead and kick into the OP that has been going on. 361 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,480 Steve, have you been paying attention to Twitter when you 362 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,040 should have been paying attention to your new big screen 363 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,360 TV and your family? The TV hasn't been wired up yet 364 00:18:22,360 --> 00:18:25,480 so I was staring at the computer in my pocket a non-stop. 365 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:30,000 All I care about is the XS. Do you know about the right wing 366 00:18:30,120 --> 00:18:32,680 warfare tech Bros versus mega? Are you ready? 367 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:38,640 I'm very, very familiar with this and very if they're buying 368 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,280 it, selling it, I'm just a hold because I don't care. 369 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,880 But yeah, let's do it. OK, so here's the story folks, 370 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,120 because Newsweek covered this, which means that this is the 371 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,200 this is the OP that's going on right now. 372 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,200 Right wing warfare. It's pitting big Tech against 373 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:58,040 the MAGA people over H1B visas. All right. 374 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,000 And if you're not familiar with this because you have been doing 375 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,520 the things you're supposed to be doing, which is focusing on 376 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:06,280 family and Cuji Kamalia over the Kwanzaa slash Christmas holiday, 377 00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:10,040 this story is fantastically written. 378 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:11,280 Sometimes they just really nail it. 379 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,800 MAGA evangelists like Laura Loomer believe that Elon Musk's 380 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,880 influence within Trump's circle serves his own interest. 381 00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:20,320 Coming from someone like Laura Loomer, that's pretty 382 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:21,680 incredible. That's actually one of the 383 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,920 funniest things that you will ever hear. 384 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,240 Loomer has singled out Elon Musk and his tech allies, including 385 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,600 Box CEO Aaron Levy and PayPal Co founder Peter Thiel and some 386 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,480 others, saying that the Doge initiative for government 387 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,960 efficiency is actually just cover for sending funds into 388 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,800 Silicon Valley entrepreneurs and that they are going to hire more 389 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,920 Indian people under the H1B visa program. 390 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,880 There's this big break out here and we're seeing this aggressive 391 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:51,960 push to fight about immigration. Everything about this suggests 392 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:56,160 to me an algorithmically driven OP to promote Discord. 393 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,960 This is that Apple of Discord thrown in there to the fairest. 394 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,960 It's like, how about good immigration ready go and then 395 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,160 you saw people break along ideological lines. 396 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,560 What do you see happening there, Steve? 397 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,560 That's exactly what my assessment is, is exactly yours. 398 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,920 Look there, it's a distraction to get away from what's honestly 399 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,080 going to be necessary to happen beginning in January 20th. 400 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,200 And that's going to be marching Abuelas down to the border. 401 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,480 Entire families and all the sob stories. 402 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,720 They're going to be thrown to us by the legacy media where 403 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,720 they're going to say, you know, do you want 90 year old Abuela 404 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,640 separated from her family because she doesn't have health 405 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,920 insurance or her granddaughter's working 3 minimum wage jobs in 406 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,680 order to support her. And that that sob story is 407 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,640 already written. And they're going to pull on 408 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,800 heartstrings. And on top of that, they're 409 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:47,000 trying to fracture the the MAGA movement or wing for what they 410 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,360 can about it so that they can paint it as racist. 411 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,720 Look, Vivek Ramaswamy can say whatever he wants. 412 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,960 He's not in the position of power or authority. 413 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,000 He wasn't elected to anything. You could actually sit on the 414 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,120 fence on this one. They can. 415 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,680 Both sides can make points. You can say, hey, we appreciate 416 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,640 culture and it's a it's a issue of are you willing to 417 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,040 assimilate? Are you willing to work hard? 418 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:09,280 Are you spark? Are you capable? 419 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,120 Can you make our society better and then melt into the belding 420 00:21:13,120 --> 00:21:14,240 pot? And that's a good thing. 421 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,560 And you can say, hey, look, we have an obligation as a country 422 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:17,600 that we should look out for our own. 423 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,600 There's been a net loss of jobs for native born Americans. 424 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,440 Those are all legitimate things to point out. 425 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,840 You don't have to pick a tribe in this one. 426 00:21:25,120 --> 00:21:28,000 And certainly when you have Laura Lumber saying like I am 427 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,400 the MAGA, like the Anthony Fauci, I am the science, it's 428 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,880 just not worth engaging in the entire debate because I'm more 429 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:39,080 interested in let's get rid of the people who murder people 430 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:43,240 like Lake and Riley from our society rather than does Elon 431 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,120 Musk or any of those other tech Bros have enough coders. 432 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,080 Charlie, do you have any instinct as to, is this a 433 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,800 historical thing that the political right pushes back 434 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,200 against immigration? Is this a left or right issue, 435 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,720 this America issue? Where does that live? 436 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,840 I didn't think so until just a couple of seconds ago, but then 437 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,560 I figured it out. We need to have virtual 438 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,840 immigration because in the digital realm there there are no 439 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,760 limits, right? So why do people physically have 440 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,720 to come? They don't have to go to the 441 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,280 office to do work. Why do they have to come to the 442 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,400 country to do work? So why don't we just virtually 443 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,960 import any of the great technicians that we want in the 444 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:27,880 high tech industry and let them work from home in their Hut, 445 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,680 wherever it may be? Do they have Internet in their 446 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,880 Hut? Well, let's get them Internet. 447 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,800 Let's get them Skylink. There we go. 448 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,720 We've solved all the problems and we don't have to feed them 449 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,320 or house them, but it seems to me that would work. 450 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,800 Skylink is the Chinese bootleg version of Starlink I think, so 451 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,640 I think that's actually OK too. They can have that as well. 452 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,200 We're talking to India, so they're closer. 453 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,560 They are closer. OK, so interestingly enough, 454 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,160 this is professional level commentary. 455 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,440 This could have made it on CNN. You guys are going to be shocked 456 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,120 to find out that this is essentially the same discussion 457 00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:03,280 that was being had by Caitlin Collins, who doesn't appear to 458 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,240 be an OP at all and is totally not excited to try to drive 459 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,520 these wedges in between the Vivek the Elon, the Donald Trump 460 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,080 and the MAGA AKA Laura Loomer, who is apparently like a 461 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,200 Palpatine character. She puts on the cloak of MAGA 462 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,000 and discerns what is and what is not. 463 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,120 Here we go. Not against legal immigration. 464 00:23:22,120 --> 00:23:24,480 I think most individuals who voted for Trump aren't 465 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,840 necessarily against legal immigration as it pertains to 466 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,720 H1B. But Americans didn't vote for 467 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,040 Rama Swami, They didn't vote for Elon Musk. 468 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,240 They voted for Donald Trump in part because of his tough stance 469 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,040 on immigration illegally, but also because I assume they 470 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,520 believe that the president-elect wouldn't increase the number of 471 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,360 individuals, individuals coming into the country, even legally, 472 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,920 that could potentially negatively impact or 473 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,960 disproportionately affect Americans as it pertains to 474 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,160 certain types of jobs. And so, again, I go back to my 475 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,200 original premise. We need to focus on domestic 476 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,400 skilled development. I understand what mayor, former 477 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,920 Mayor de Blasio was saying. We got to bring people in with 478 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,920 the goal of getting to that point maybe in the decade or so. 479 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,640 I get that. But why not limit the cap where 480 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,640 it's at and focus over the next decade of increasing skills 481 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,280 within our own people? Most Americans don't want to see 482 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,400 good paying American jobs going to people from India or China. 483 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:19,640 Yeah, but wait a minute, wait a minute. 484 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,080 The competition, the global competition is happening right 485 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,600 now. And we, if we don't grab that 486 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,480 talent, sure, Michael, I hear you. 487 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,880 But if you don't grab the talent now, someone else does. 488 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,320 And if you really want to grow the economy so you'll have that 489 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,960 opportunity for Americans, why would you leave talent on the 490 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,480 table? You know, grab what you can now 491 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,320 and build toward the goal you're talking about. 492 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:42,200 It's not either or. That was Mayor de Blasio telling 493 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,360 us I can't take him seriously after watching the COVID video, 494 00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:47,800 since we're talking about OPS when he was really excited about 495 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,920 getting a shot because he might also get a burger. 496 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:53,000 And are you telling him that he could get this delicious burger 497 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,000 and French fries? That all will always haunt me. 498 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,960 I think some of these people sold their credibility cheap 499 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,320 when they did, and now they will always have to deal with that. 500 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,760 So we'll go back and kind of address that because it turns 501 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,120 out the COVID origin story is back in the news and we can't 502 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,840 hide from it. So we're going to just embrace 503 00:25:07,840 --> 00:26:35,560 it. All right, so the question then, 504 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,600 why do we all distrust these people? 505 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,240 Maybe because they were lying from the beginning. 506 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,320 Steve, hold your horses on this one 'cause this is coming out of 507 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,560 the Daily Caller today. This was put out day before 508 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,120 yesterday when we were not on the air. 509 00:26:49,120 --> 00:26:53,040 The intelligence BLOB, that's a little homage to Mike Benz who 510 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,680 uses that kind of term. It's the intelligence apparatus 511 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,000 which includes parts of big tech, includes government, 512 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,040 includes non governmental agencies and and all these 513 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,760 groups that sort of fund the movement. 514 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:07,640 The Intel op, they've boxed out the lab leak proponents and they 515 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,600 sold it to Biden as he was mentally fading in favor of the 516 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,920 national origins theory. The natural origins theory being 517 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,160 that it came out of a wet market or that it jumped from one 518 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,200 species to another. I'm going to tell you this 519 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,520 because they're talking this about bird flu right now. 520 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,640 The federal agencies and scientists, suspecting that 521 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,560 COVID-19 began with a laboratory leak in China, were boxed out of 522 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:31,000 key presidential briefings and their reporting was not allowed 523 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,280 to make it up to the White House. 524 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:35,680 That's just it. The FBI was the only 525 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,760 intelligence agency that had a moderate confidence in the lab 526 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,600 league theory, but the agency was not invited to a key August 527 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:46,000 2021 briefing with Joe Biden. This is the thing that I, I have 528 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,040 a problem with, gentlemen. It seemed really obvious right 529 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,960 away that this was the case. We all had friends in various 530 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,640 places that were saying it, whether they had a position or 531 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,480 just using their own sort of, you know, scrutinizing powers. 532 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,560 It was never really a chance that somebody had eaten a bat. 533 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,600 And then it somehow it like made it to, to Seattle. 534 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,280 That just didn't make any sense. Steve, were you hearing 535 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,160 rumblings when you were working for the Bureau about this sort 536 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,160 of lab leak situation or was it just where did you hear it? 537 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,720 I just heard it. From consuming content. 538 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,640 I mean I was in a pretty remote location, but nothing ever made 539 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,320 sense about the the wet market to me. 540 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:25,160 I mean, the premise was that a bat that nested 600 miles away 541 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,280 somehow flew that distance and then gnawed on a pangolin, which 542 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,040 vomited into a Stew, which made its way into somebody's mouth. 543 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:36,440 Like when there was a bio weapons lap that's in that town 544 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,200 and it's run by a guy who's in charge of bio weapons for the 545 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,040 Chinese Communist Party. I mean, let's just use some 546 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:43,840 common sense here. I mean, and even just to throw 547 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,240 it back to the the last clip that you played, This is why we 548 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,160 don't trust anybody because Bill de Blasio was named Warren 549 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,960 Wilhelm until he turned 40 years old. 550 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,280 And he realized that that sounded like it was too Waspy. 551 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,800 So he changed his name from Warren Wilhelm to Bill de Blasio 552 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,080 because everybody can vote for just Bill de Blasio. 553 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:00,520 He sounds like it's from New York City, right? 554 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,440 Not Connecticut, like Bill de Blasio is really from. 555 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,920 There's nobody worth trusting in this. 556 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:10,480 And we saw everything that was related to coronavirus, even 557 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:14,360 changing the name to COVID. Coronavirus was changed to COVID 558 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,360 over a weekend because they said that it was potentially racist 559 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:22,760 against Latinx, Latinx people because Corona or something when 560 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,720 that's Latin. There was nothing about it that 561 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,200 was authentic the entire time, and that includes up to today, 562 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,280 where people are still working from home. 563 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,360 We're going to talk more about that because apparently some of 564 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,120 them are going to have to come back to work in the office. 565 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,640 And I've got that for our last story. 566 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,880 Dad, you got censored 'cause you did a radio show during the 567 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,040 COVID time and you guys were uploading. 568 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,400 Will you tell that story 'cause I'm not sure everyone is aware 569 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,040 of? So doing a local radio show in 570 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:53,440 Payson, AZ, with a population of 16,000 and a listenership of 571 00:29:53,560 --> 00:30:03,080 600, I said that we were using the online resources of YouTube 572 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,520 to catalog the stories, so the shows. 573 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,880 So every day they would put the recording and they would store 574 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,600 it on YouTube because we didn't have the capacity at the radio 575 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,640 station. Anyway, it got censored and they 576 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:20,200 took us down because I said I thought it was really stupid to 577 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,880 try to make young children wear masks. 578 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,760 It just didn't seem to serve any purpose. 579 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:31,080 And that came back and it was stamped with large letters 580 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,120 across the screen, medical misinformation. 581 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,320 And that was the end of the. And that was your opinion? 582 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,600 That wasn't like you weren't making a proclamation, correct? 583 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,520 No, but I, you know, as a parent, someone who's been 584 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,760 around children and a grandparent, someone's been 585 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,320 around children trying to put a mask on a toddler. 586 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:56,200 I common sense try to try to put a sweater over the head of a 587 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,240 young child sometimes is the same thing. 588 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,040 So it just, it was just dumb. It was stupid, but to your 589 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:07,280 original question, I thought my gut reaction to all of this 590 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,880 whole bat theory and I didn't know about the vomiting and the 591 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:11,600 Stew. That's new. 592 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,520 That's actually pretty less. Information, yeah. 593 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,280 It just always was illogical. It just didn't. 594 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:21,760 That didn't make sense. But a biological weapons lab in 595 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,520 China, that made sense, that seemed to fit with the common 596 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,880 knowledge. So you know, I was there. 597 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,040 The goofy thing was too is that there were people inside the the 598 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,800 agency and of course, at that time I was based out of DC. 599 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,280 And so there were people talking about it in the various offices 600 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,720 because it is actually the work of the intelligence agencies to 601 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,320 go out there and do that. But then they started pushing it 602 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,480 and we had ACIA whistleblower come forward, who is now back 603 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,880 with the agency, luckily, but worked with Feds for Medical 604 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:48,920 freedom. And I'm not going to say his 605 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,200 name, but you guys can find him if you want. 606 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,160 It's it's available. It's just I don't need to out 607 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,920 him at the moment. Went to the House Permanent 608 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,800 Select Committee on Intelligence and said, you know, not only did 609 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,600 the analysts pretty conclusively decide, like, the most 610 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,320 compelling story is the thing that every American assumed that 611 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,880 was being logical about it, including people like Jon 612 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,240 Stewart, who basically had the same story about your, your, 613 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,920 your, you know, vomiting in the Stew and the Penguin. 614 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,560 He's like, there's no way that you can convince me that this 615 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,400 huge chain of events took place when it's so easy that someone 616 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:21,800 walked out of the lab and neither made a mistake. 617 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,280 And I don't think it was necessarily intentional. 618 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:24,640 That's that's The funny thing about the Chinese. 619 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,240 And this is what we're going to be kind of talking about. 620 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:31,560 They don't need to have an intentional leak to be able to 621 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,560 take advantage of a situation because they have lots of very 622 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,960 long term plans and they think about things methodically and 623 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,840 they have, you know, 50 and 100 year plans on what they want to 624 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,120 go do. And if something fits into the 625 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:45,120 plan, then they just enact it. But amazingly, that got you 626 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:46,720 kicked off social media. For those of you who are doing 627 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:48,160 that. It got you kicked out of polite 628 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,000 conversations if you were on the wrong side of it, and it got you 629 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,640 a bonus if you lied about it, which is what essentially was 630 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:54,880 done with the folks in the agency. 631 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,720 Those analysts that were willing to go along with the story got 632 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,560 bonuses and some other people also got paid off. 633 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,640 It seemed like we haven't heard a lot of talk about Anthony 634 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,920 Fauci in a while. Steve, what do you think Anthony 635 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,560 Fauci is up to right now? He's actually a professor at 636 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,240 Georgetown and he has a protective detail provided to 637 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,560 him by the United States Marshall Service. the United 638 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:19,400 States Marshall Service has spent $15 million of the last 18 639 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,400 months protecting Anthony Fauci. So he's a good and faithful 640 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,240 servant by the regime because what they do in the regime is 641 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,040 reward their friends and punish their enemies. 642 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,560 He gave 40 years and he's going to receive way more than his 30 643 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,360 pieces of silver. Unless there's some sort of 644 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,040 accountability here. And I don't think there's going 645 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,800 to be, other than the viral clips of Rand Paul saying that 646 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,960 you're a liar. I don't know what we're going to 647 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,720 get out of this. He deserves to be at the end of 648 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,200 an l-shaped hallway in solitary confinement somewhere in 649 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,240 Leavenworth. But I think he'll probably just 650 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,600 live out the rest of his days, even though he knows, he knows 651 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,760 better than all of us, because he is the science, that he 652 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,480 doesn't really have a biblical worldview, that you know, when 653 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,080 it all fades to black, he'll just be fine. 654 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,440 I want to actually see the dollar comparison between what 655 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,400 they spent on the security detail for Donald Trump and the 656 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,960 one that was spent on Anthony Fauci, since one of them has had 657 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,360 assassination attempts and one of them is just an A hole. 658 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,120 Here is kind of a compilation of why you need a security detail 659 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:18,719 maybe significant lying for a significant period of time that 660 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,480 affected people like you and me and probably every like 661 00:34:21,639 --> 00:34:24,639 certainly all three of us had some effect and I think a lot of 662 00:34:24,639 --> 00:34:26,239 our listeners probably experience it as well. 663 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,880 Just a little little walk down memory memory lane here. 664 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:31,840 Not the not the L shape hallway where he belongs. 665 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,679 So now we have 2 vaccines that are really quite effective, the 666 00:34:35,679 --> 00:34:42,400 mRNA vaccine, highly effective, extraordinarily efficacious, 94 667 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:48,080 to 95% for mild to moderate disease and virtually 100% 668 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:52,360 efficacious because the real world effectiveness is even more 669 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,159 impressive than the results of the clinical trial. 670 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,600 All right, and it goes on and I'll actually post this over on 671 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,720 the local channel for you guys to watch that if you don't 672 00:35:10,720 --> 00:35:13,520 haven't, if you've never seen the headline montage, which is 673 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,760 actually fairly compelling. And it goes on for about 3 1/2 674 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,240 minutes. And it's all of the things 675 00:35:17,240 --> 00:35:20,880 talking about the effectiveness and the efficaciousness and 676 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,440 whatever the heck that word means. 677 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,760 Did we ever get a real definition of what that word 678 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,280 means in real life? Do you, do you have a a grasp of 679 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,240 that Dad? I think it's spelled with an A, 680 00:35:30,240 --> 00:35:35,840 not an E affectacious because it affects people. 681 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:42,360 It's 100% effective. Affective it's effective at 682 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,480 raising the the bottom line and making sure that that Pfizer 683 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,920 makes record profits and I need to amend I was corrected by your 684 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,480 chat here on the Kyle Seraphin show. 685 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,320 The Marshalls quietly dropped the protective detail for 686 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,520 Anthony Fauci last week. He's now getting private 687 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,160 security, so. Are we paying for that? 688 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,280 That's an excellent question. Well. 689 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,880 We've already paid for it, if you think about it, because he 690 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:10,120 never was able to disclose the honorariums that he received for 691 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:14,840 being science, literally. Representing all of science. 692 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,320 Science became man, and Anthony Fauci was it. 693 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,120 That's kind of wild. Yeah. 694 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,800 How? OK, I'm, I'm troubled by that. 695 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,560 And the reason why I'm troubled and the reason why I bring this 696 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,040 stuff up is not because I just want to run down memory lane, 697 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:30,320 although we do have a fun little tip. 698 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,360 This is another little piece of that affectacious. 699 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:38,880 It was 100% either affective or effective at something, but it's 700 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,040 not really clear what that something was. 701 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,960 So I want to kind of get another little taste. 702 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,520 By the way, these are the tickers, Dad, that you, you 703 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:50,160 talked about the death tickers that allowed most of us to see 704 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:53,240 through the OP. And I want you guys, if you're 705 00:36:53,240 --> 00:36:56,240 watching this, to pay attention to the right side of the screen 706 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,880 while they're discussing it. They're going to have a panel. 707 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,160 They're going to talk about some incredible numbers of things 708 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,080 that you better do. And then they're going to have a 709 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,960 death ticker like the National Debt Clock that was telling you 710 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:08,280 exactly how many people died because probably 'cause Donald 711 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,880 Trump, it was his fault. Again, pay attention to the 712 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,240 right side of the screen. We do have some. 713 00:37:12,240 --> 00:37:15,720 Breaking news, Drug maker Pfizer just announcing the results of 714 00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:17,720 its vaccine trial for adolescents. 715 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:23,000 It says its coronavirus shot was 100% effective at preventing 716 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:27,160 infection sickness among 12 to 15 year olds. 717 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,240 This could be a major game changer for reopening schools 718 00:37:30,240 --> 00:37:32,320 across America. So joining us now is Doctor 719 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,480 Chris Pernell. She's a public health physician 720 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,640 and fellow at the American College of Preventative 721 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,000 Medicine. I'm Doctor Pernell, great to see 722 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,480 you. 100% effective. Is that? 723 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,440 I mean, I would John and I haven't heard numbers like that. 724 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,760 Is that unusual to find that efficacy rate? 725 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:50,920 Find that efficacy rate, well, that's even higher than what we 726 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,720 were reported when we had 95% efficacy in adults. 727 00:37:54,720 --> 00:37:58,160 Look, we know these mRNA vaccines are a game changer. 728 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,640 The technology is different. The technology is very 729 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:04,080 promising. I mean it's 100%. 730 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:09,520 I mean, I mean, you know, it does not get any better, guys. 731 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:13,440 It doesn't get any better. I mean 95 is not even 100 and 732 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:17,680 100 is bigger. We have to explain that 100 is 733 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,120 bigger than 95. Meanwhile, trust the numbers we 734 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,600 have in the corner there. To me, the ultimate where, you 735 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,160 know, it was all contrived and and it was pretty clear that it 736 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,760 was from the very beginning. But I don't know if you remember 737 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,000 there, there were the Daily Press briefings that Donald 738 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,840 Trump was doing and he was having Anthony Fauci and Debbie 739 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,080 Brooks go out there with her bedazzled face mask. 740 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,200 And the question went out. It was very circulated amongst 741 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,320 the media that we had just surpassed the death total from 742 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,880 Vietnam, and every single media person out there was. 743 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,720 Now today we have crossed over the threshold. 744 00:38:49,720 --> 00:38:52,400 The death toll here is worse than Vietnam. 745 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:56,440 And I'm like, this is completely artificial and fake and you 746 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,160 don't have any of the data. It's impossible that you could 747 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:00,840 have gotten it. I work with people in the 748 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,280 government. They take sick leave and annual 749 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,960 leave and just leave and they've been told to stay out of the 750 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:07,880 office. This is impossible that you 751 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:09,440 would have gotten any of this information. 752 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,160 There's no uniformity. There's no system in place to do 753 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,200 this. You're making up these numbers 754 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,600 and it's being done because you have this unique opportunity now 755 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,440 to both spike the president in his last year in the in the run 756 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:25,120 up to the re election attempt and to boost your own ratings. 757 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,080 Because we're in a interesting time. 758 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,680 And I've talked about it before where we had really good and 759 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,600 comfortable lives. And it sounded really kind of 760 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,520 interesting to Rev the engine on that fear. 761 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,040 Let's go pretend to live in the zombie apocalypse for two weeks 762 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:41,520 or a month or four years to to flatten the economy. 763 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,040 It's, you know, I missed it before, but I just saw it. 764 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,520 When you put that screenshot up there, the last one when you're 765 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,960 trying to sell something, you never say it's $10, right? 766 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:57,600 You say it's 998 or 999. That's a selling technique. 767 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:04,440 And the number up on the screen was 550,998 OK. 768 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,120 So, you know, it's just like. Wow, so many people. 769 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:13,040 It could have been 551,000 rounded out, but that obviously 770 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:16,240 wouldn't have resonated the same way people would have looked at 771 00:40:16,240 --> 00:40:18,560 that went well. That might not be a real number. 772 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,920 That seems like an. Estimate 998. 773 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:22,360 You're right on. You're. 774 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,000 It looks like the price of ATV, yeah. 775 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,720 There you go. And you need that TV. 776 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:31,320 OK, let me add to that because I had this really interesting 777 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,480 little chat. It was a throwaway conversation 778 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,880 with a gal who was stocking shelves at the Natural Grocer 779 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,720 yesterday because my wife and I went and bought toothpaste 780 00:40:37,720 --> 00:40:39,480 there. I don't know why I need $9 781 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,360 toothpaste, but I do need $9 toothpaste. 782 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,400 Apparently this is not my choice, Steve. 783 00:40:43,720 --> 00:40:46,800 My wife gets that. She's a luxury item chooser and 784 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,440 her thing is potions. We need to hack into that signal 785 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,320 chat between the suspendables wise it's a conspiracy. 786 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,240 Well, if you start getting $9 toothpaste then you'll know 787 00:40:55,240 --> 00:40:57,520 what's going on. I got the $7.00 toothpaste which 788 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,480 was the budget version of it and it still tastes exactly like 789 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,320 baking soda. So I don't understand what I 790 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,360 got. But what I did notice is on the 791 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,920 door in in reference to what Charlie just said and the 792 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:12,320 selling technique, they have hours in that store. 793 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:21,720 They start at like I think they start at 7:38 and they close at 794 00:41:21,720 --> 00:41:25,320 8:36 PM. Have you ever seen this? 795 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,960 Because this is real. This is, I'm not making this up. 796 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,240 Anybody who lives near a natural, it doesn't matter if 797 00:41:29,240 --> 00:41:31,920 you live near a natural grocer, look up natural grocer on your, 798 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,760 you know, Google Maps and go look at the hours of the store 799 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:40,360 and you'll see that it closes at 8, 36 PM or 7:36 PM depending on 800 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:44,040 the time of year. And so I asked the lady and, and 801 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:45,840 my wife is like, don't ask her. She's not going to know. 802 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,760 And I'm like, oh, I guarantee you, because that's the first 803 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,920 question I've got. What are the hours that I'm 804 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:54,000 working right? And why is it 8:36 PM when we 805 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,240 close? What the shit is that about? 806 00:41:55,240 --> 00:41:56,520 Because that's a really weird number. 807 00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,760 And she said that people when the original store opened up, 808 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:01,840 they always wanted to come in after the hours. 809 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,800 They were still in the store and they needed a few more minutes. 810 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:07,040 And the woman who did it basically decided to do a hard 811 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:08,680 fudge. So they like, it's kind of like 812 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,800 the old hours in a bar that used to be we're, you know, we're 813 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,080 open till closing. If you've never done that, I 814 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:14,960 used to run a bar and they're like, hey, how long you guys 815 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:16,960 open tonight? And I said, till we close, which 816 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,200 is always true. That's the easy thing to do. 817 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,120 And it's like until the business basically dries up, you might as 818 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,040 well be open because you're still turning a profit. 819 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:29,440 And so for whatever reason, they opened at this time, it was like 820 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,960 till 8:30, but people would want a few more minutes in the store. 821 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,280 So she made it a weird number so that no one really knew when 836 822 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:36,480 was. And it's the same thing I've 823 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,600 used previously when I want to screw with people and they say 824 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:39,920 how long is going to be till you get there? 825 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:41,280 And I say, I'll be there in 17 minutes. 826 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,320 Nobody has a concept in their head of what 17 minutes is, but 827 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,400 they do have a concept of 15 minutes and 10 minutes and 20 828 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,040 minutes. So if you give them that rounded 829 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:50,720 number where they're used to it, they're going to look at it. 830 00:42:50,720 --> 00:42:52,400 Be like, dude, it's been more than 10 minutes, where are you? 831 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,640 But if you say 17, no one's going to do the math and figure 832 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,400 out what that looks like. So they'll be like, oh, are you? 833 00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:58,560 Be like, I'll be there in 12 minutes. 834 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:01,640 I'll be there in 8 1/2 minutes. That will get you a lot of extra 835 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:02,640 time. And that's the wiggle room. 836 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,480 And they were using that stuff on CN NS website like in real 837 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,280 time to the American people and some of us who are kind of like 838 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,400 natural fibbers and like to push this envelope, we saw it. 839 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,800 And my dad is 1 and you are one and I am one. 840 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,560 And it's probably why we all get along. 841 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,400 But how many Americans just bought this hook, line and 842 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:20,760 sinker? How many people walk by that 843 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,920 store that see 836 closing time and never once asked that 844 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,880 question? All of them, just about all of 845 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,040 them. Most, I mean, we all had the 846 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,840 stories that we saw the absurdity where things made no 847 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:34,880 sense. I mean, look, it was at the time 848 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,080 where they started doing and then they enhanced it because of 849 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,320 the social distancing rules, which are completely arbitrary 850 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,360 and capricious, you know, the definition of tyranny. 851 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,480 The online groceries where you could buy and then just go and 852 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,360 get the pickup. And it was convenient and the 853 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,800 weather was crummy in Iowa, so it made sense of the time. 854 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:51,440 That's what I changed. I mended. 855 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,680 I said there's no question, no way I'm ever doing online 856 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:57,040 pickup. I am walking into that store and 857 00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:00,200 I'm walking the wrong way down the one way aisles because 858 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,840 people need to know that this is stupid and I saw people who were 859 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,760 shielding their children putting their bodies in the way of me as 860 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:08,400 I. Walked the wrong walking the 861 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,200 wrong way. Guys up the dad, you know, the 862 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:16,200 sleeve tattoos and the Don't Tread On Me T-shirts, 33 inch 863 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:20,880 pythons because they're Rogan Bros who had double masks on and 864 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,080 the American people were weighed, measured and found 865 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,600 wanting. But for the most part, which is 866 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,280 why I have no confidence that another emergency will not come 867 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:31,440 around and people will just line up. 868 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,200 I think you're probably right. So do my friends over at the 869 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,400 Wellness company. So thanks for the Segway there. 870 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,640 We're going to just go right to it, folks. 871 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:44,000 Anish Kumar, JA, he's a former Joe Biden administration Covic 872 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,640 19 response coordinator, recently gave a chilling speech 873 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,360 at the University of Michigan, the School of Public Health. 874 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:52,400 He warned of a new age of pandemics fueled by bioweapon 875 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,600 development and natural threats. He called for a massive 876 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,960 investment in vaccines against pathogens that don't even exist 877 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,840 yet and encouraged a war on so-called misinformation. 878 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:02,640 That's probably us if we're being honest. 879 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,760 The question we need to ask is who's working on bio weapons? 880 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,160 How many labs are out there globally and who's going to send 881 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,160 them our way?

Again, TWC dot health slash 901 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,720 Kyle, it is timely to have these kind of conversations. 902 00:46:03,720 --> 00:46:06,920 I feel like it is something that is continually on the other 903 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:08,640 radar and we're not done with it yet. 904 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,760 For whatever reason. We're not done because there's a 905 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,000 bird flu, you guys, and you probably knew this. 906 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,040 We're done with bats. We've moved on to birds. 907 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:17,640 It still has wings and it looks like this. 908 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:21,040 This is the story. There's a virus that was found. 909 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:24,440 It's the variant of the Louisiana bird flu, and a bird 910 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:28,440 flu patient in Louisiana is showing a mutation that could 911 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:30,720 emphasis on could. I'm sure they didn't emphasize 912 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,160 increased transmissibility to humans. 913 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:36,280 CDC analysis finds. I read the story for you. 914 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:39,280 It turns out that the H5 N 1 bird flu, which we've been told 915 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,960 over and over that these bird flus are going to be more 916 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,400 potent, more transmissible and coming after us. 917 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,960 But #1 the best part of this entire story is in the first 918 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:51,960 line of the story, Steve Friend, it says, but there's no evidence 919 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,680 the virus has been passed to anyone else. 920 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,920 The patient was infected from sick and dead birds in a 921 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,200 backyard flock. The CDC found out through some 922 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:04,400 analysis. Found out that a dude who liked 923 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,760 to play with dead birds in the backyard got sick from dead 924 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:13,240 birds but nobody else has is. That like a militia violent 925 00:47:13,240 --> 00:47:17,560 extremist group with a low propensity for violence, IE 0 926 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:19,280 because there was a really low number. 927 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,840 But it could be violent if the right situation happened. 928 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:26,520 Yeah, I think so. I think it's what it is. 929 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,840 The CDC has no credibility left at this point. 930 00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,280 They don't know that yet though. That's why this is interesting 931 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,080 to watch. That's what this the the that's 932 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,760 the the most interesting thing about this is that this hand got 933 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,040 overplayed I think, and that's why everything looks like an OP. 934 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:43,400 The problem is is that there is still plenty of people that have 935 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:47,320 done route BII tell you guys, I I feel like this is true and 936 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:49,920 I'll get your reflection individually, but it seems like 937 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:51,280 people had two choices during the COVID. 938 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,080 One of them was question everybody, the sort of X-Files 939 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:56,840 trust no one. And the second one is everybody 940 00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,000 is lying. So I'm just going to believe 941 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,240 whatever the hell I want. And that's my favorite new 942 00:48:00,240 --> 00:48:01,880 theory. And that's why the earth is flat 943 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:03,040 and the moon is made out of cheese. 944 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,160 That is also a flashlight. And and nothing that I've been 945 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,480 told is real because I just live in my own fantasy world. 946 00:48:08,720 --> 00:48:11,480 Gravity is fake. Those people, they're the ones 947 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,600 that are kind of like the most likely to now be taken in by God 948 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,480 knows what. Birds aren't real. 949 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:22,960 The CIA controls them all. I I share that sentiment. 950 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:26,240 I think you had the opportunity to be skeptical and do your own 951 00:48:26,240 --> 00:48:29,360 homework on things and take everything I with a healthy 952 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:32,160 grain of cynicism and real and check the sources of it. 953 00:48:32,240 --> 00:48:35,400 Or you could do what the the latter group is, and that is 954 00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,840 they said you lied to me, so I'm going to assume you lied to me 955 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,800 about everything. And I think it's even more 956 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,560 directed than that. I'm going to assume the opposite 957 00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:47,600 of whatever you told me is true. It's not even like we're going 958 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,640 to whatever I want to be true. Like even fantastical things 959 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,160 like, oh, gravity doesn't work. I don't feel pulled down. 960 00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,080 I feel more pressed down from above. 961 00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:58,800 You know, something absurd. It's that, oh, well, you told me 962 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,080 the Earth is round and I've seen globes in school. 963 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,160 Ergo, it has to be the opposite of that has to be flat. 964 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:09,600 Dad, did people doubt the moon landing when Neil Armstrong was 965 00:49:09,720 --> 00:49:10,760 doing the famous? Broadcast. 966 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:15,720 I don't think so. I not not that that was that 967 00:49:15,720 --> 00:49:19,240 came on later. The movie, I think had a lot to 968 00:49:19,240 --> 00:49:20,880 do with that. They made a movie about the 969 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:24,920 faking the moon landing, but I think the people were people 970 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:31,200 were enthralled at that time. We were on the verge of a new 971 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,880 era of discovery. And we've always, you know, 972 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:39,000 talked about going beyond the limits of the atmosphere and and 973 00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:40,800 it was a it was a really exciting time. 974 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,520 I think 1969 June Shining on the Moon. 975 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:47,560 Yeah, that was cool. I, I announced that on a radio 976 00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:52,800 station in Madison, WI Got to play the audio tape from, you 977 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:56,360 know, one small step and it was good. 978 00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:58,000 It was, I think it was a good time. 979 00:49:58,240 --> 00:50:00,960 I'm still back to the guy. I think people will. 980 00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:05,160 As long as people will play with sick birds in the backyard, 981 00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:09,000 people will believe anything. I think that's the connection. 982 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,440 There was a video that I saw and this has nothing to do with 983 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,840 anything, but it was, you know, are there fire breathing dead 984 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:18,920 chickens in India? And somehow somebody either like 985 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:24,680 pulled a gas inhalant into the lungs of dead chicken and had an 986 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:27,800 ignition source underneath or something similar to that. 987 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:29,560 I don't exactly know what happened here, Steve, but I did 988 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,280 see the video. The guy was like squeezing out. 989 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:33,640 Like if you squeeze a dead bird, the lungs will inflate just 990 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:36,040 because of the way that the, the, the, their chest cavity 991 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:37,400 works. And then they'll, they'll 992 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,040 exhale. I knew a friend who'd like play 993 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:40,560 dead ducks. He would try to make a tune out 994 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:41,840 of them. You'd arrange them, you know, 995 00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,080 the musical mind. So he would go shoot ducks in a 996 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:46,440 pond, pull them out, and then he would play the ducks. 997 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,800 And you could set up a couple of different notes because they all 998 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:51,240 squawk at different levels. And somebody was doing it with 999 00:50:51,240 --> 00:50:52,200 chicken. Yeah. 1000 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:53,680 You know this guy, by the way. Yeah. 1001 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:57,960 Then someone, you know. But yeah, so they were doing 1002 00:50:57,960 --> 00:50:59,880 with these chickens. And it was like fire was coming 1003 00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:01,400 out of the nostrils of the dead chicken. 1004 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:03,240 And they were like, what's going on? 1005 00:51:03,240 --> 00:51:04,680 Like, are these? And then people would be like, 1006 00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:05,920 oh, my God. It's like, well, you got a lot 1007 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:07,760 of things out of camera here. It's just showing the face of 1008 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:09,880 the dead chicken and not anything else. 1009 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:12,080 Like, who knows if there's a guy with a name and flame underneath 1010 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:13,800 it or whatever. But yeah, if you're going to 1011 00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:15,800 play with dead birds, it's a possibility you end up with a 1012 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,240 bird flu, I think. I think it's probably real. 1013 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,760 We used to be a little bit more serious and a little bit less of 1014 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:24,160 this, like, viral clicking. I got a really fun video of a 1015 00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:27,760 wild human being that somehow made it to be president as well. 1016 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,800 I think a lot of comparisons have been driven Donald Trump 1017 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,680 and Reagan, and they're not the same kind of person. 1018 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:37,040 Reagan was a really, really good speaker and he delivered 1019 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:39,200 messages really well. He was really inspirational. 1020 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:42,360 I don't think Donald Trump has that talent in the same way, but 1021 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,280 they're talking about a lot of the same things, like crushing 1022 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,840 working men and just like obvious common sense things and 1023 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,840 with an understanding of business for an actor, which is 1024 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:53,760 where he came out of. This is 1975 S, six years after 1025 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,960 our lunar landing story. And I think it still rings true 1026 00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:00,400 that you could run for president on this today and people would 1027 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:03,480 want to elect you if you were getting people to listen. 1028 00:52:03,720 --> 00:52:06,760 When you and I were boys back in the Midwest, governments, 1029 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,600 federal, state and local were only taking about $0.15 out of 1030 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,920 every dollar earned. Today they're taking almost half 1031 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:15,880 of every dollar earned in the United States and most people 1032 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,040 don't realize it because the taxes are hidden in the 1033 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:20,680 so-called business taxes. You know the politician that 1034 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:23,480 stands up and yells oh let's save the little man, let's tax 1035 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:25,880 business. And everybody yells array, but 1036 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,880 they haven't figured out that every tax on business is just a 1037 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:34,160 part of the cost of production and the customer winds up paying 1038 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,720 it when he buys the product. It's a hidden sales tax. 1039 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,560 There's 116 of them in a the suit of clothes that each one of 1040 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:40,960 us. Is that right? 1041 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:45,080 Suppose a lot of economists have suggested, and I don't know 1042 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,920 they'll ever come to be in this country that they're if they 1043 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:52,760 closed all of the loopholes and corporations and maybe tax 1044 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:55,680 loopholes and even on their rich certain loopholes and and made a 1045 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:58,600 percentage income and made a flat fee without all of the 1046 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,720 deductions that the government might raise as much money as 1047 00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:04,720 they do now. Oh sure, and really, the 1048 00:53:04,720 --> 00:53:06,600 loopholes. This has been overdone by the 1049 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:09,560 politicians too. The bulk of the money that is 1050 00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:11,800 taken by what are called loopholes are the legitimate 1051 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,120 deductions with which if the people didn't have them, they 1052 00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:16,880 couldn't pay their income tax, interest on their mortgage, 1053 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,640 interest on the installments on their on their car, their 1054 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,400 property taxes on their home if they have one, and so forth. 1055 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,680 These are, in politicians eyes, loopholes. 1056 00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:30,600 But we ought to have tax reform, and we ought to start by making 1057 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,000 it so simple that you don't have to hire a lawyer to find out how 1058 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,240 much you owe every year. That's for sure. 1059 00:53:35,240 --> 00:53:36,760 It used to be. It used to be a little. 1060 00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:37,920 Simplified, but not anymore. We. 1061 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:41,920 We, Johnny, we live in the only country in the world where it 1062 00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,280 takes more brains to figure out your income tax than it does to 1063 00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:48,720 earn the income. What a great line. 1064 00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:51,720 He's the goat man. He just, and that's a serious 1065 00:53:51,720 --> 00:53:55,160 intellectual conversation happening on a nighttime comedy 1066 00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:57,920 shows. Johnny Carson and Ronald Reagan, 1067 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,640 he was an actor. He was also in charge of the 1068 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:04,720 Screen Actors Guild union. So he was involved with with 1069 00:54:04,720 --> 00:54:07,600 politics in that regard. He was an employee. 1070 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:11,200 He was a spokesperson for GM. He was a serious thinker who had 1071 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,720 come around to these issues and put a lot of thought into him 1072 00:54:13,720 --> 00:54:16,080 and talked about it for a long period of time before he 1073 00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:18,000 eventually ran for governor of California. 1074 00:54:18,240 --> 00:54:19,800 But I mean, how far are we from that? 1075 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:23,840 Where you contrast that that image where, you know, you have 1076 00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:26,920 Reagan, who at that point had not been elected president. 1077 00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:31,880 He wound up losing the nomination in 76, but he was 1078 00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,680 definitely on a short list of candidates to to be in that 1079 00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:36,960 position. And then you flush forward to 1080 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:42,640 2020 or 2021 where you have Stephen Colbert doing a dance 1081 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:46,640 with vaccine marionette puppets or, or mascots. 1082 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:48,760 I mean, like, that's just a completely different time. 1083 00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:51,600 I want to live in that country. I do too. 1084 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:53,680 You want to find something. This is an interesting tie in. 1085 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,920 Are you guys ready for this? Because they were making 1086 00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:58,520 suggestions about what is now being called Doge, the 1087 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:00,120 Department of Government efficiency. 1088 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:04,320 That was actually part of what Reagan was talking about in that 1089 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,280 clip. And I'm going to go back to it 1090 00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:10,320 and I'm going to play something that Rand Paul has made a career 1091 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,440 out of talking about government waste and inefficiency. 1092 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:16,720 But this is also it's just the common sense party that we kind 1093 00:55:16,720 --> 00:55:19,880 of are losing or we've lost. And it's been a, it's been a 1094 00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:22,400 theme for what is that 30 years now? 1095 00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:24,360 And I'm sorry, 50 years. Is that 50 years that we're 1096 00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:25,800 talking? Is that right? 1097 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:28,520 Do the math on it. Yeah. 1098 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:29,840 There you go. Here we go. 1099 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:34,720 Watch this. Be right. 1100 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,160 We've gotten in the habit over the last 40 years of thinking 1101 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,160 the government has the answers. There's very little that 1102 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,040 government can do as efficiently and as economically as the 1103 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:46,240 people can do themselves. And if government would shut the 1104 00:55:46,240 --> 00:55:48,800 doors and sneak away for about 3 weeks, we'd never miss them. 1105 00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:53,240 Our biggest problem is that we have built a permanent structure 1106 00:55:53,240 --> 00:55:57,040 of government, federal, state and local, the permanent 1107 00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:58,880 employees. And they've come to the place 1108 00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:02,080 that they actually determine policy in this country more than 1109 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:03,680 does the Congress of the United States. 1110 00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:07,840 There are 14 and a half million public employees in the United 1111 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:09,240 States. That's quite a voting bloc. 1112 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,400 And the bureaus and agencies not in Washington. 1113 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,360 I heard you talking earlier about some of the research 1114 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:19,200 programs. What would you say if I told you 1115 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,040 about one? A study in which this was called 1116 00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:27,720 the The Demography of Happiness. And in this study, the 1117 00:56:27,720 --> 00:56:30,320 government found out that young people are happier than old 1118 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:37,680 people, and they found out that people that earn more are 1119 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:39,080 happier than people that earn less. 1120 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:42,680 And they found out that, well, people are happier than sick 1121 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:43,560 people. That's good. 1122 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:48,920 This was $249,000 to find out. It's better to be rich, young 1123 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:55,200 and healthy than old porns. What do you think about that 1124 00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:58,280 one, Dad? Yeah, it's, it's funny because I 1125 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:02,040 saw that clip online yesterday or the day before, too. 1126 00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:05,400 So it was, it's it's really powerful. 1127 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:07,680 And what you've been saying all along is shut the government 1128 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,880 down and no one will notice. The other point, Steve, I'd make 1129 00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:15,960 about Reagan is that he studied economics in college and he he 1130 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:18,440 was an economist. I mean, he really did have a 1131 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,840 good sense what was going on. And the movie career. 1132 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:27,240 A lot of times people with other skill sets get into a, you know, 1133 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,560 a side business that can earn a lot of money for them. 1134 00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,680 And he did that. But his position in the union 1135 00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:35,800 and his position later in politics as governor and as 1136 00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:40,760 president was predicated on a a base of knowledge that he had in 1137 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:42,800 a philosophy that he had that was consistent. 1138 00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:45,760 So he didn't just wake up one day and start talking about 1139 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:47,200 things that he didn't know about. 1140 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:50,240 It were there were things that he had considered seriously for 1141 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:54,960 a very long time in his life before he became a public 1142 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:58,080 figure. And that's that's kind of lost. 1143 00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:00,040 We don't, you don't see too many of those. 1144 00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:02,400 You see a few. You know, Tom Massey always 1145 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:06,320 comes to mind because there are people, contemporary people who 1146 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:12,040 have that intelligence and educational background to 1147 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:15,360 justify their positions on, on different things. 1148 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:19,800 But most, most politicians today are just blowing in the wind and 1149 00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:24,240 you know, whatever, if it's dancing with the the COVID 1150 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:29,880 vaccine puppets, then so be it. I have this instinct that that 1151 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,680 that's more evidence that this the so-called OP. 1152 00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:35,760 The OP is just basically that there's a status quo and we're 1153 00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:39,080 all sort of just playing along. You, you don't get to really 1154 00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:41,680 move permanent Washington. It's just been growing slowly. 1155 00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:44,480 It's been growing since 1975. It was growing four years before 1156 00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:45,880 that. If you listen to what Reagan's 1157 00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:47,920 talking about. And now here we are 50 years 1158 00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:50,080 after that conversation, we're having the same thing. 1159 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:52,680 So that's 100 years of growth, which goes back exactly to the 1160 00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:54,640 thing I said that the minute that the federal government got 1161 00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:58,080 access to our bank accounts, the minute they started getting 1162 00:58:58,080 --> 00:59:01,200 access to an income tax and they could fund themselves and vote. 1163 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,760 It's not about voting Congress for its own raises. 1164 00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:05,640 It's about the government voting to fund itself. 1165 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,160 That the money is not voluntarily put out there or 1166 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,640 that they're not taxing the States and the states get to 1167 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:13,600 push back on it because we don't have the states represented in 1168 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:15,680 the Senate anymore. It's just, it's just funny to 1169 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:17,560 watch this. So I, I typed this into Grok 1170 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:19,520 this morning. Grok is the AI product that sits 1171 00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:22,640 inside of Twitter or X. And I don't know what this 1172 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,520 means. Folks who are listening in the 1173 00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,480 chat and those who are listening after the fact. 1174 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:28,720 I'm going to describe it to you though. 1175 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:32,160 I said draw everything you know is a lie. 1176 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:33,640 That's the exact thing. And I'm going to show you the 1177 00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:36,360 what it would have generated, generated 4 pictures as it does 1178 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:40,080 everything you know is a lie. Has a picture of a black man 1179 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:43,840 that is very sad, an Asian, maybe Chinese man that says 1180 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:46,400 everything you know is a lie on the wall behind him. 1181 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:49,000 A book that says everything you know is a lie. 1182 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,160 And Barack Obama looking very serious. 1183 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:55,120 No idea what the hell that means, but it's really weird. 1184 00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:56,880 And it's funny that that's where it went. 1185 00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:59,440 And by the way, every time that I regenerated this image, it 1186 00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:01,000 included Asians and black people. 1187 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:03,280 I don't know what the Hell's going on with the grok function, 1188 01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:05,560 but it is really funny and strange to see that. 1189 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,800 And it kind of led me down the path of sometimes you just 1190 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:12,000 talked about side hustles being a thing where maybe you're a 1191 01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:14,080 politician. And that's what you're known 1192 01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:15,440 for. But you had a different thing 1193 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,600 that made your, you know, major intellect develop. 1194 01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:20,360 Donald Trump theoretically understands international 1195 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:21,600 business, at least at some level. 1196 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:24,720 He has to because he's been able to continue to have far more 1197 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:26,680 money than most people. And all the left is always said, 1198 01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:28,760 well, he lost money. And it's like, yeah, he's got 1199 01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:30,480 more money than you. So maybe, maybe he knows a 1200 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:33,040 little something. This troll that's been going on 1201 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:35,920 where he's focusing on something and making Americans think about 1202 01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:38,400 things that they haven't before. I don't know what it means, but 1203 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:41,360 it makes me laugh. Look at this story, this they're 1204 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,720 really upset right now, the left because Donald Trump wants to 1205 01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:46,920 annex Greenland, Canada, Mexico and Panama. 1206 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:49,560 And so here's the story. Trump again suggests that the 1207 01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:51,840 United States should own and control Greenland. 1208 01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,000 He said it's absolute. It's an absolute necessity. 1209 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,840 I've absolutely no idea what the what the argument behind it is, 1210 01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:59,480 although there are some that is going on. 1211 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,360 It's it's upsetting to people for the purposes of national 1212 01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:03,920 security and freedom. This reminds me of like a 1213 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:05,200 Falkland Islands kind of argument. 1214 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:07,320 The United States feels that it should have ownership and 1215 01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:09,680 control of Greenland. And this is getting people 1216 01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:11,320 pissed off. And what it led me down this 1217 01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:13,880 road is that there's all this other crazy stuff going on. 1218 01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:15,160 Guys. I want to just hit them all like 1219 01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:16,920 like wave tops. So give me one second here. 1220 01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:20,440 This is the stories that led from both CBS and ABC, 1221 01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:22,440 theoretically sort of mainstream media outlets. 1222 01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:24,480 So Trump should control Greenland. 1223 01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:28,120 Russian aircraft, an anti aircraft system shot down an 1224 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:30,640 Azerbaijani plane that happened over the weekend. 1225 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:33,920 So that's crazy. Israel is hitting Gaza and Yemen 1226 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:39,160 and hit an air did some air strikes at an airfield where The 1227 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,920 Who chief was about to grow. By the way, Trump wants to pull 1228 01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:44,120 out of The Who as well. So that's kind of interesting. 1229 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:47,480 The South Koreans have a acting president who's getting 1230 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:50,200 impeached for the it's the second person to be impeached in 1231 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:52,080 two weeks. So there's all this civil unrest 1232 01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:55,280 there. And then lastly, we've got, I 1233 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:56,600 guess this is the Azerbaijani plant here. 1234 01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:59,400 There's another look at it just saying that it doesn't look like 1235 01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:00,560 a bird strike. It looks like the Russians 1236 01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:04,080 actually shot them down. So we've got this new focus on a 1237 01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:06,120 million things outside of the United States because pretty 1238 01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:10,520 much the entire campaign that I saw them run was all about mega, 1239 01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:15,400 mega, mega US focused, United States centric sort of America 1240 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,520 first, screw everyone else. But in order to accomplish that, 1241 01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:20,200 it sounds like you've got to actually start opening your eyes 1242 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:22,840 up in this little discussion about immigrants from India and 1243 01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:24,880 the global economy. I think a lot of people that 1244 01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:28,320 might otherwise just drive a big Ford truck and and have a big 1245 01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:30,360 MAGA bumper on the background and kind of a piss off in a 1246 01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,240 Trump flag. They're having to start 1247 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:33,440 considering things that are out there. 1248 01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:37,040 Like should we annex Panama like my wife argued 10 years ago? 1249 01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:39,680 Should we conquer these things because the United States 1250 01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:42,360 doesn't operate in a vacuum and maybe people just don't realize 1251 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:44,800 that until they get hit in the face with the idea of Annex in 1252 01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:47,720 Greenland. I don't know what it's a it's a 1253 01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:50,560 free spinning idea of a bunch of weird shit happening all at once 1254 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:53,760 to me. I wanted annex Greenland so we 1255 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:55,120 can put the FBI headquarters there. 1256 01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:58,840 I'm all, I'm all for that. I mean I I just looked it up the 1257 01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:01,520 the population of Greenland is 56,000 people. 1258 01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:05,280 Is it really? Giant landmass my town in Port 1259 01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:08,080 Orange, FL have. Have you heard of Port Orange, 1260 01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:11,120 FL? We have 65,000 people, right? 1261 01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:13,080 Right. We'd have a large Las. 1262 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:18,360 Cruces, New Mexico, yeah, Las Cruces, NM had 100,000 people in 1263 01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:21,240 it, and people asked me if I was moving out of the United States 1264 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:22,880 when I moved there. They didn't even know it was in 1265 01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:24,880 America. So that entire country 1266 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:29,080 basically, I mean, it has no population whatsoever. 1267 01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:31,200 It's just interesting that we're now looking at the sort of 1268 01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:33,920 territorial expansion. I don't know this about Reagan. 1269 01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:36,200 Did Reagan want an empire? Was that a discussion that was 1270 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:39,400 being had at that time in the late 70s when Reagan was coming 1271 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:39,880 to power? Dad? 1272 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:45,440 Not that I recall, no. He probably did a movie with a 1273 01:03:45,440 --> 01:03:48,880 dog sled team though, and I know they have those and and. 1274 01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:51,600 Yeah, you were reading about their their military spending 1275 01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:53,160 increase. Was that because Donald Trump 1276 01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:54,080 wants to annex them? Is. 1277 01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:57,840 That no, they said it was just an it was ironic that Denmark 1278 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:01,640 up, I think it's 1.6 billion, something like that. 1279 01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:06,840 Their defense budget, which would include more dog sled 1280 01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:11,720 teams because those are very effective when you're trying to 1281 01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:15,960 cover the the polar areas. Have they not invented snow 1282 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:18,600 machines? It didn't say anything about 1283 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:21,200 snow machines, it just said dog sleds. 1284 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:24,800 There's probably more snow machines in the town you grew up 1285 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,000 in. There a lot. 1286 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:29,840 Which is not very big, but they race them than there is in all 1287 01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:32,160 of Greenland and we could probably overrun them with just 1288 01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:35,200 a bunch of people from Wisconsin who decided you just go populate 1289 01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:36,800 Greenland. Snowmobiles, yeah. 1290 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:39,240 You don't have those in Florida either, so. 1291 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:41,720 Steve, you got. Some things you're missing out 1292 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:43,440 on, Steve. I'm just telling you you. 1293 01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:47,000 Know fanboats and alligators. Trump dog. 1294 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:51,640 Fled Team A competition. What do you think in South 1295 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:54,520 Florida? I I made a firm commitment that 1296 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:57,880 I gave the last full measure of devotion for seven years in 1297 01:04:57,920 --> 01:05:00,680 Iowa, shoveling snow by hand by myself. 1298 01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:04,080 And I will never be cold again, even if that includes having to 1299 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:08,160 put on a shell jacket in a hotel in Houston when it's 90° 1300 01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:10,440 outside. While I did a appearance on the 1301 01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:13,360 Kyle Seraphin Show, my fingernails were blue. 1302 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:16,200 It was justified. I want to, I want to talk about 1303 01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:17,440 the last full measure of devotion. 1304 01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:19,600 Some federal employees have decided it. 1305 01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:22,200 They may be dragged back into work kicking and screaming. 1306 01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:23,320 We had some interesting stuff, folks. 1307 01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:24,400 Some reporting coming on this later. 1308 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:27,520 We're going to go along today. This is a fun story that I saw 1309 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:30,240 and it's going to go into the disruption of life and also 1310 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:32,400 proving something that my father told me a long time ago about 1311 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:34,600 multitasking, which I want to kind of touch on as well. 1312 01:05:34,800 --> 01:05:36,800 Jason Lacroix felt privileged to work from home. 1313 01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:38,400 He's the father of two young children. 1314 01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:40,000 We talked about kids at the beginning of this. 1315 01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:42,760 He needed flexibility when his son, who was six years old, 1316 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:44,800 suffered a brain injury and was in intensive care. 1317 01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:47,400 There are reasons why people might need flexible 1318 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,760 accommodations and supporting children does seem like a 1319 01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:52,000 important piece of it. Doesn't say anything about what 1320 01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:54,800 the mom's story is in this, but apparently people are getting 1321 01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:56,680 dragged back into work and Lacroix, who was a senior 1322 01:05:56,680 --> 01:05:58,360 systems engineer, is one of them. 1323 01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:01,800 So this entire article is talking about returning to the 1324 01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:04,320 office can disrupt life. The thing that people have 1325 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,240 always had to do, like go to work somewhere that was not in 1326 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:08,360 the house. As long as you work in an 1327 01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:10,400 industrialized society, you have to leave the house. 1328 01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,920 And they have some tips to go ahead and help you navigate the 1329 01:06:13,920 --> 01:06:18,000 change. How, how did we end up here, 1330 01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:18,680 Steve? How? 1331 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,760 How are people now needing coping skills to be able to go 1332 01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:27,040 to do their job? Because when we sent everybody 1333 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:32,320 home, it addicted them to their devices and left them without 1334 01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:35,120 the ability to have any sort of cognitive abilities. 1335 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:39,320 They're waiting for instructions on how to do everything at this 1336 01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:41,560 point. Because you you see it from the 1337 01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:45,600 intention span that people have, the people, people are always on 1338 01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:48,040 and scrolling. They can't focus on a thing. 1339 01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:50,960 And then you get people addicted to comfort. 1340 01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:53,320 And that's exactly what the entire thing was. 1341 01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:55,560 I mean, this is been something I've been trying to push out 1342 01:06:55,560 --> 01:06:57,880 there about how the government does this to people. 1343 01:06:57,880 --> 01:07:01,160 They set up a system where they spend inordinate amounts of 1344 01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,640 money to inflate the currency and import a whole bunch of 1345 01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:08,000 people to take away jobs and leave people who are native born 1346 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:10,520 and they're citizens in a position where they cannot 1347 01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:14,880 thrive in the current economy. And then they they resultantly 1348 01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:19,920 have to rely on the government's kittens in it is a recipe for 1349 01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:22,880 the government to always expand and always have control. 1350 01:07:23,080 --> 01:07:26,040 And this is just another cultural extension of that. 1351 01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:30,000 People sat home and got addicted to wearing non restrictive 1352 01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,080 waistbands. And now they just can't even at 1353 01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:33,840 the very thought of having to go back to work. 1354 01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:37,040 So something that that it's not like you're going to have to ask 1355 01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:39,680 your dad be like, hey, Charlie, what was it like back in the old 1356 01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:41,680 days when they had to go to work? 1357 01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:45,160 I mean, this is not ancient history. 1358 01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:49,040 No, it was like 3 years ago. Yeah, this is the other piece of 1359 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:51,560 the OP to me. And, and This is why people 1360 01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:53,200 always, they always think it's like they're trying to sell us 1361 01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:54,280 something. It's like, no, no, they gave you 1362 01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:57,160 something you wanted. They gave you the opportunity to 1363 01:07:57,160 --> 01:08:00,680 work from home and not even do that much work at all. 1364 01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:02,320 A lot of people don't do any work at all from home. 1365 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,800 Some people work their asses off and some people work not at all. 1366 01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:06,560 So that's always the case. That happens. 1367 01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:08,200 At least in the office, there's some accountability. 1368 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:12,520 And now we're seeing this moment where people are quitting, they 1369 01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:14,960 are leaving their job. They would rather be unemployed 1370 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:17,720 than have to go back and work at Apple for really, really good 1371 01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:19,680 salaries. And this has been going on for a 1372 01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:21,000 couple years as people have been coming back in. 1373 01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:23,720 Now it's hit the federal government, that thing that 1374 01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,760 basically doesn't do jobs anyway, those people are really 1375 01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:27,840 upset. And so there's all these coping 1376 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:29,560 mechanisms that they have in here, which are very funny. 1377 01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:31,840 You can ask your employer to adjust your hours so you can 1378 01:08:31,840 --> 01:08:34,240 work when you want to, because it doesn't matter when the work 1379 01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:37,800 is like. Like answering the phones for 1380 01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:40,160 American citizens, You can work it at 3:00 AM. 1381 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:43,279 Look, the best example of this was a lady that I talked to and 1382 01:08:43,279 --> 01:08:46,000 I talked to a lot of people in tech in in customer service on 1383 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:48,080 the phone and they're always working from home now. 1384 01:08:48,359 --> 01:08:50,520 And sometimes I know that because they have the chirp in 1385 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,840 the background. When I have Tamika who works for 1386 01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:55,160 the US Postal Service and she's doing customer service. 1387 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:57,560 By the way, she was a really nice lady, but her fucking smoke 1388 01:08:57,560 --> 01:08:59,920 detector in the background was chirping at me and I couldn't 1389 01:08:59,920 --> 01:09:02,399 focus on what I needed done. I was like, this lady is going 1390 01:09:02,399 --> 01:09:04,680 to burn to death because she probably lives in a not very 1391 01:09:04,680 --> 01:09:06,279 nice apartment. That's what I'm hearing. 1392 01:09:06,279 --> 01:09:09,319 I'm hearing that you are living in a place and the one thing the 1393 01:09:09,319 --> 01:09:11,520 government does, although it doesn't do very many things very 1394 01:09:11,520 --> 01:09:14,600 well, it changes. It buys batteries and it changes 1395 01:09:14,600 --> 01:09:16,160 smoke detectors and smoke alarms. 1396 01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:18,640 I never heard a chirp in a government building for more 1397 01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:22,680 than like a few minutes because that is a full scale roll out of 1398 01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:24,080 everybody's capabilities. Anyway. 1399 01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:26,399 It's just crazy to see this kind of thing of people crying about 1400 01:09:26,399 --> 01:09:28,680 it. And maybe this is where it leads 1401 01:09:28,680 --> 01:09:30,640 me to my multitasking dad. What do you say about 1402 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:34,760 multitasking? It's a good excuse to do more 1403 01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:36,920 than one thing poorly at the same time. 1404 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,680 OK, And we got a picture of this woman who also looks like sort 1405 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:43,240 of a Indian goddess, I guess she's got all these arms, which 1406 01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:44,359 is kind of a funny little picture. 1407 01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:48,399 Multitasking, Is it a myth? Here's what experts say about 1408 01:09:48,399 --> 01:09:50,479 divided attention. You need to get a PhD if you 1409 01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:52,920 want to really talk about this. This is coming from a woman 1410 01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:55,360 named Erica Robinson. She's all too familiar with 1411 01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,640 multitasking. She studied it at Apple and at 1412 01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,080 Microsoft. She started studying it years 1413 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:03,680 and years ago, 25 years plus. And in 1998, she coined the 1414 01:10:03,680 --> 01:10:07,520 phrase continuous partial attention, claiming there really 1415 01:10:07,520 --> 01:10:09,720 isn't anything as such as multitasking. 1416 01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:11,880 We never do anything simultaneously. 1417 01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:13,400 We're just rapidly tasked switching. 1418 01:10:13,680 --> 01:10:16,000 Or if I remember the way my dad used to say it back in the day 1419 01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:17,880 before he got more polished and more statesman. 1420 01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:20,280 Like he used to say, it's just an excuse to do a bunch of 1421 01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:21,520 things. Yeah, poorly. 1422 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:23,640 Or you just do everything shitty at once. 1423 01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:26,000 She studied it and apparently you can't do it. 1424 01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:29,720 You can simply have like chewing gum and walking and that's about 1425 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:32,400 as far as human beings can go. You can do 1 task and an 1426 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:36,000 unrelated task, a motility and A and like a consumption. 1427 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:38,400 But even when I was in basic training, they told us not to do 1428 01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:40,040 that. I just remember every time I 1429 01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:43,240 stand up from the table now, if I'm still chewing, like if I 1430 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,960 want to go fill up a drink or something, there's a there's a, 1431 01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:49,840 a drill Sergeant in my head that's yelling at me because 1432 01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:52,040 you're not supposed to chew and walk. 1433 01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:53,960 You're supposed to finish each individual task. 1434 01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:56,240 There's probably some value in that, that we used to know we've 1435 01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:57,800 lost it. But in any case, I just think 1436 01:10:57,800 --> 01:11:00,120 it's funny that multitasking, no one's doing it and you're 1437 01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:02,000 definitely not doing it at home. If you're hanging out with your 1438 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:04,000 kids and watching your kids, you're watching your kids. 1439 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:05,480 That's why you got to go to work. 1440 01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:08,080 Or you can be task saturated by the actual work. 1441 01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:10,080 Anyway, it's all part of the OP to me. 1442 01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:14,200 This is why people are terrible drivers because driving on busy 1443 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:16,680 streets, it really does. I mean, you say, oh, it's 1444 01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:19,520 driving, It's one activity. No, that you're having to do a 1445 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:21,000 lot of different things at the same time. 1446 01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:22,680 You're having to pay attention to what's in front of you, 1447 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,000 what's on the side of you, what's behind you, the speed 1448 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:26,840 this traffic signals, the signs coming up. 1449 01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:31,720 A lot is getting thrown at you and you can just watch a average 1450 01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:35,920 day on a semi busy St. and like how many near accidents or how 1451 01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:39,360 many actual accidents occur. It's because it's multitasking 1452 01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:41,720 and people just are not not equipped for it. 1453 01:11:42,360 --> 01:11:44,160 Yeah, we can't do it. We can't split our attention. 1454 01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:47,040 We've created though, a situation where we develop 1455 01:11:47,040 --> 01:11:49,000 technology to do all those things. 1456 01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:53,240 So in the new vehicle, right, it can see ahead of you, it can see 1457 01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:56,960 the potential danger, can see on either side, you can see behind 1458 01:11:56,960 --> 01:11:59,960 you. And basically you're, we're 1459 01:11:59,960 --> 01:12:04,200 being programmed not to use our brain, just to just shut it down 1460 01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:10,080 and let the let the upside down world take over and, and handle 1461 01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:11,520 things. We're going to. 1462 01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:14,360 I'm bringing on a new sponsor pretty soon. 1463 01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:16,800 That has a lot to do with this. I'm not going to, I'm not going 1464 01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:19,600 to tease it out just yet, but one of the sales pitches is 1465 01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:22,440 exactly the opposite of what I thought the pitch would be for 1466 01:12:22,440 --> 01:12:24,760 the product. And I think it's brilliant. 1467 01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:26,960 So that's one of the reasons why we're going to partner up with 1468 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:28,400 them and we'll just put a pin in that. 1469 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:30,440 If you're listening to the show and you're thinking like, OK, 1470 01:12:30,440 --> 01:12:32,200 what in the world you talk about, we will come back to 1471 01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:34,120 that, 'cause I want you to know. But since you brought up 1472 01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:38,000 technology solving problems that I didn't need solved, it turns 1473 01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:40,560 out we've been able to drive for like 100 years and it was fine. 1474 01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,440 Like you just, I need to not have a phone that has like the 1475 01:12:43,440 --> 01:12:45,760 entire Internet and I need to not be reading an e-mail while 1476 01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:47,600 I'm trying to decide whether or not I can navigate the red 1477 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:50,080 light, which, by the way, I'm guilty of just as much as any of 1478 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,480 you are. This is a thing that I didn't 1479 01:12:52,480 --> 01:12:54,720 know that people needed. So those of you who are single, 1480 01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:58,280 those of us who are not, we look at you not just with pity, but 1481 01:12:58,280 --> 01:13:02,360 with fear and skepticism and real concern because there's a 1482 01:13:02,360 --> 01:13:04,560 thing called online dating. And I understand that that was 1483 01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:07,000 coming online about the time when I was getting offline. 1484 01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:10,920 And that's all great. Being able to meet a match using 1485 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:12,960 the Internet is not a terrible thing per SE. 1486 01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:15,200 I think that there are some characteristics that are not 1487 01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:18,080 awful. But this might be the worst 1488 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:21,840 thing that I've ever read. And that's saying a lot in 2024, 1489 01:13:21,840 --> 01:13:25,280 at the end of the year here, dating online is about to change 1490 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:27,240 radically. This is from CNN subscriber 1491 01:13:27,240 --> 01:13:29,480 pieces. Those are some very feminine 1492 01:13:29,480 --> 01:13:31,240 hands. But apparently a man's watch. 1493 01:13:31,240 --> 01:13:33,600 So, so confirmed. Steve friend, I'm going to read 1494 01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:36,080 this to you because it scares the crap out of me. 1495 01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:37,760 For those of you that are still doing this. 1496 01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:42,840 Personalized chat bots dating other chat bots on your behalf, 1497 01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,800 period. An AI concierge fielding 1498 01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:49,880 questions about potential matches, advanced algorithms 1499 01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:53,480 predicting capabilities and compatibilities better than ever 1500 01:13:53,480 --> 01:13:55,800 before. Dating apps are on the cusp of a 1501 01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:59,480 major transformation. Essentially saying that that for 1502 01:13:59,480 --> 01:14:03,520 the last several years, dating apps have been learning who you 1503 01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:06,160 are, whether it's the parent companies of match.com or 1504 01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:09,960 Twitter or I'm sorry, Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, our time and 1505 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:12,400 more. They've been basically gathering 1506 01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:15,320 all your data, all of your interactions, including the way 1507 01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:17,920 that you text and you chat and you go back and forth in private 1508 01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:21,280 messages with those that you might be dating or be interested 1509 01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:24,600 in dating. And they are creating a virtual 1510 01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:28,840 version of yourself that can now find the virtual version of 1511 01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:32,960 somebody else and determine compatibility based on machine 1512 01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:35,440 learning. This scares the ever loving shit 1513 01:14:35,440 --> 01:14:36,960 out of me. I don't know any other way to 1514 01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:39,000 say it. This is how you end up with no 1515 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:42,440 children forever, I think. What do you think, Steve? 1516 01:14:42,440 --> 01:14:44,200 Are you? Can you imagine that like you? 1517 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:47,360 How long you been married? For 13 years. 1518 01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:49,280 OK, 13 you got more years than me. 1519 01:14:50,360 --> 01:14:52,320 You were dating. This was not a reality. 1520 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:54,240 This was like there was no online dating, at least not in a 1521 01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:57,080 meaningful way. No, I, I've said that I felt 1522 01:14:57,080 --> 01:14:59,840 like I got on the last helicopter out of Nam before 1523 01:14:59,880 --> 01:15:06,080 that that entire system came in the, the, and look, I understand 1524 01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:09,720 that you're, you're trying to use technology to help people, 1525 01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:11,760 right? But there's just been downstream 1526 01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:14,320 consequences of this. And it's so obvious that this is 1527 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:17,040 going to go wrong. Like the downstream consequences 1528 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:20,520 of the online dating in general is that men and women are very 1529 01:15:20,520 --> 01:15:23,880 different. Shocker and as a result of that, 1530 01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:27,760 the pool of guys who are getting swipe rights from interested 1531 01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,880 women is very small. So those guys are getting the 1532 01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:33,360 repetitions, we'll say the opportunities to meet with 1533 01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:34,680 women. As a result, now you've got 1534 01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:38,000 other guys, the lion share of guys who are unable to meet a 1535 01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:40,680 partner and they're unable to actually get the skills that are 1536 01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:44,320 necessary, the social skills to communicate and be successful in 1537 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:47,640 pursuing and ultimately gaining partnership for the foreseeable 1538 01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:50,000 future. This is now going to even that 1539 01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:53,280 that limited pool of people, they're not going to develop 1540 01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,600 those skills now at all because you're just going to outsource 1541 01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:58,080 it to AI to do it. And then what are you going to 1542 01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:00,440 outsource the, the, the marriage? 1543 01:16:00,440 --> 01:16:02,680 Are you going to outsource the, the child rear everything? 1544 01:16:02,800 --> 01:16:04,200 It's just going to be disconnected. 1545 01:16:04,440 --> 01:16:08,520 Ultimately, it's reverse matrix. People just want to be plugged 1546 01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:10,680 into the Matrix. They can sit in their little 1547 01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:15,920 closet with VR on their face and just get their government, check 1548 01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:18,720 their Ubi and never have to interact with anyone at all. 1549 01:16:20,160 --> 01:16:23,640 I just want your open reaction to what I just read to you Dad 1550 01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:29,800 coming as a 75 year old guy. I guess it's virtual children. 1551 01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:32,160 I guess that would be the next logical step, right? 1552 01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:36,760 That the one bot would mate with another bot and create a virtual 1553 01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:39,600 child that would grow up and go through the stages and a. 1554 01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:42,080 Perfect punted square. You could check once and zeros. 1555 01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:45,960 Right, you check in, you you turn the screen on and and watch 1556 01:16:45,960 --> 01:16:50,200 your child develop and interact gig of them and yeah, cool. 1557 01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:53,720 The thing that that kind of freaks me out when I heard this 1558 01:16:53,720 --> 01:16:57,560 and I'm reading it, if you're going to have a chat bot, learn 1559 01:16:57,560 --> 01:17:00,240 your mannerisms and you're going to have some algorithmic 1560 01:17:00,240 --> 01:17:02,480 prediction of the way that you're going to interact, which 1561 01:17:02,480 --> 01:17:05,280 works most of the time. That's the thing about human, 1562 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:06,960 human beings. We actually operate on some 1563 01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:09,640 pretty predictable things. But I had this fun conversation 1564 01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:11,080 with one of my best buddies from high school. 1565 01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:15,480 Americans have this belief, I think like human beings that I 1566 01:17:15,480 --> 01:17:18,200 deal with have a belief that they are rational creatures and 1567 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:20,280 a lot of their things can basically be disguised by 1568 01:17:20,280 --> 01:17:22,240 rationality right up to the point when they do things that 1569 01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:24,200 are completely irrational impulse buys. 1570 01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:27,560 For example, a 75 inch TV without having room to put a 75 1571 01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:29,280 inch TV in your house, Why did you buy it? 1572 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:30,920 Because it looks different when you weren't in your house and 1573 01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:32,200 you just felt like that was the thing. 1574 01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:34,800 A chat bot's never going to make that irrational decision, but 1575 01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:37,880 that's the thing that changes the way that you're human 1576 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:41,480 interaction, $8 toothpaste, which I would never figure out 1577 01:17:41,480 --> 01:17:43,600 how to do, but I will tolerate all day long wrong because of 1578 01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:46,240 the person that is there. Now, if you went and looked at 1579 01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:48,400 my buying history, you'd be like, oh, that Kyle's not a guy 1580 01:17:48,400 --> 01:17:51,240 who can tolerate an $8 toothpaste, but I can for my 1581 01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:53,400 wife as many $8 toothpaste as she wants. 1582 01:17:54,080 --> 01:17:56,440 And so you, you're what I imagine happening. 1583 01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:58,760 And this gets to the thing we talked about the other day about 1584 01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:00,920 war games. The only way to win is to not 1585 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:03,200 play the tic tac toe analogy that happens. 1586 01:18:03,440 --> 01:18:05,800 You can imagine these bots looking at people as though 1587 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:08,360 they're rational actors, which we know they are not because we 1588 01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:10,560 live with people and people are totally irrational. 1589 01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:13,240 They believe in COVID or they don't believe in COVID, both of 1590 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:17,280 which have medium degrees of rationality to them and a lot of 1591 01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:18,560 sort of just feelings and instinct. 1592 01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:20,680 And if you're going to sit there, what they're going to 1593 01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:23,120 eventually have your, your bouts do is the bots are going to work 1594 01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:25,360 out the relationship, the virtual divorce, the virtual 1595 01:18:25,360 --> 01:18:28,120 children's separation, the pet that gets split at all the 1596 01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:29,200 things. And then basically do the 1597 01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:31,880 calculations, say this is not going to be worth your time. 1598 01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:35,320 So don't ever connect. But I think that's the craziest 1599 01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:39,600 thing about human beings is that against all odds, in all of our 1600 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:42,440 experiences, there are people that continue to have positive 1601 01:18:42,440 --> 01:18:44,800 experiences that the sum is greater than the parts. 1602 01:18:44,800 --> 01:18:46,160 And there's no predictor of that. 1603 01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:48,400 You have no way to know. This is going to bring me to 1604 01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:50,320 something that has nothing to do with any of these things. 1605 01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:52,360 But it's my, my take on Matt Gaetz lately. 1606 01:18:53,440 --> 01:18:55,280 And it it's something that my dad and I were chatting about 1607 01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:56,320 last night. So I'm going to share with you, 1608 01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:57,600 Steve, and you've met Matt. I have not. 1609 01:18:57,600 --> 01:18:58,960 I've I've interacted with them a few times. 1610 01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:02,520 There's this big push about his health axis complaint, whether 1611 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:05,040 or not he was a scumbag and doing scumbaggery and getting 1612 01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:07,400 involved with, you know, young girls and paying for sex and all 1613 01:19:07,400 --> 01:19:09,440 those other kind of crazy stuff. And the left wants to run this 1614 01:19:09,440 --> 01:19:11,880 big now that he's resigned from Congress and it basically 1615 01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:13,760 doesn't have any power. Same way they're running after 1616 01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,920 Elon and the fake. And my instinct is, is maybe 1617 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:18,560 some of those things may have been true about him. 1618 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:22,920 But if you look at Steve Friend, the unmarried guy, and you look 1619 01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:25,720 at Steve Friend, the father of two boys who's out in the world, 1620 01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:28,560 those are not the same man. And I'm not the same person that 1621 01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:30,720 I was before. And I imagine my dad, Charlie, 1622 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:33,200 is not the same man that he was before he was a parent and 1623 01:19:33,200 --> 01:19:35,240 certainly not the same guy that he is as a grandparent. 1624 01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:37,120 And so there's no way to account. 1625 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:41,120 There's no chat bot in the world that can estimate how another 1626 01:19:41,120 --> 01:19:44,120 human being in some of these experiences will make you a 1627 01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:46,400 fundamentally different person. Matt Gates doesn't even look 1628 01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:48,160 like the same guy. He lost weight. 1629 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:51,240 He sounds different. He acts differently because you 1630 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,880 become protective as a man when you have a female that's under 1631 01:19:53,880 --> 01:19:55,400 your charge that you have to go out and look for. 1632 01:19:55,480 --> 01:19:57,880 So we all end up differently. And there's no way you could do 1633 01:19:57,880 --> 01:19:59,400 that. But what you could do is 1634 01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:02,680 eliminate possibilities there. And again, that to me looks like 1635 01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:04,320 the OP. It's like, how do we keep people 1636 01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:07,200 from from being able to connect? And making themselves better 1637 01:20:07,200 --> 01:20:09,760 because that's human beings tend to make each other better. 1638 01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:12,280 And I know our chat is a great example of that because there's 1639 01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:16,000 people in there that have become more than the sum of just people 1640 01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:17,680 who watch a podcast together with us. 1641 01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:20,640 Anyway, that's that's my encouragement for humanity. 1642 01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:23,120 You know, going back into the office is not a bad thing. 1643 01:20:23,480 --> 01:20:26,440 Going and dating in real life is probably not a bad thing. 1644 01:20:26,640 --> 01:20:28,960 And get rid of this crap. So that's why this new product 1645 01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:31,240 we're going to be bringing on in a little bit in a couple days, I 1646 01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:33,160 think will be interesting. And it's not going to be for the 1647 01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:35,400 reason that people think. Any thoughts on those things? 1648 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:39,360 I think you should put your phone in a drawer for at least 1649 01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:43,200 an hour, preferably a longer period, two or three hours every 1650 01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:46,960 day and have separate from the virtual world. 1651 01:20:47,440 --> 01:20:50,920 Because if you are constantly attached to the virtual world, 1652 01:20:51,240 --> 01:20:54,200 you lose that that human connection. 1653 01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:58,120 You miss so much by looking at the screen of the things that 1654 01:20:58,120 --> 01:20:59,920 are happening around you in nature. 1655 01:20:59,920 --> 01:21:03,760 And I, I'm, I'm totally serious and it's really hard. 1656 01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:05,920 There are very few people who probably can do it. 1657 01:21:06,280 --> 01:21:08,160 But think about it, it's not that tough. 1658 01:21:08,520 --> 01:21:12,920 Put your phone in a drawer and it go outside, go for a walk, 1659 01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:14,960 have a conversation, do something. 1660 01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:19,080 I don't even if you just you know, about the only time we 1661 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:22,800 tend to do that in today's world is when we're watching a movie 1662 01:21:22,800 --> 01:21:25,920 or or some other video presentation. 1663 01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:30,440 But turn off all the electronics for a short period of time and 1664 01:21:30,440 --> 01:21:33,800 see if you can get to a longer period of time and try to, you 1665 01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:37,760 know, what a miracle if you could go for a whole day and not 1666 01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:39,760 be connected to the virtual world. 1667 01:21:40,160 --> 01:21:44,160 And I, and if we don't start, it's going the other way because 1668 01:21:44,160 --> 01:21:46,520 there are people, how many people have their phones by 1669 01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:49,480 their night stand and they wake up in the middle of the night 1670 01:21:49,480 --> 01:21:51,040 and they got to check, did I get it? 1671 01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,280 You know, an e-mail? Did I get a text? 1672 01:21:53,760 --> 01:21:55,720 What's going on? What's the latest? 1673 01:21:55,760 --> 01:22:00,080 And that's the, that's the beginning of the end from an old 1674 01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:03,160 guy. That's that's we didn't have 1675 01:22:03,160 --> 01:22:06,080 that. And was the world better off? 1676 01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,120 I think so. Were there better relationships? 1677 01:22:08,120 --> 01:22:09,440 That we make mistakes? Sure. 1678 01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:12,800 That we screw up, that we have all kinds of problems? 1679 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:16,680 Yeah, we've always had problems, but not like what you're seeing. 1680 01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:20,320 That disconnectedness is a direct result of the 1681 01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:23,760 relationship we have with technology and you and I'm not 1682 01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:27,600 anti technology, it's great tool, but it's it's become an 1683 01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:30,360 addiction and not a tool. Dave. 1684 01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:33,680 Yeah, I would never ask my kids to do something that I was 1685 01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:36,200 unwilling to do myself. And look, we we put Christmas 1686 01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:39,280 presents out under the tree and we told the kids you can't open 1687 01:22:39,280 --> 01:22:42,240 those presents right now. I mean, it's the exact same 1688 01:22:42,440 --> 01:22:44,840 proposition as you can't look at your phone right now. 1689 01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:47,560 And now, as Charlie suggested, do it for an hour. 1690 01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:51,160 We and our kids not open their presents for like multiple days. 1691 01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:53,560 So I think you can make that sacrifice. 1692 01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:57,280 And I mean, even just back to Matt Gaetz, you know, not this 1693 01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:59,520 is not an argument for people not to be held accountable for 1694 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:03,520 any sort of like the serious wrongdoing, but one of the the 1695 01:23:03,520 --> 01:23:07,120 best scientifically, as long as we're talking about the science 1696 01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:09,960 at this point factoids that's out there. 1697 01:23:10,040 --> 01:23:14,120 Is that the slowest cells to regenerate in your body or 1698 01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:16,000 actually your bones, the cells of your bones? 1699 01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:18,880 And it takes seven years. Every seven years, you basically 1700 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,480 your skeleton is completely different than it was before. 1701 01:23:21,680 --> 01:23:25,000 So you're a new person every seven years essentially, which 1702 01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:28,360 is makes marriage interesting, which makes the premise of even 1703 01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:31,000 going back to work interesting. Hey, look, you're basically over 1704 01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:33,720 halfway to being a completely different person at this point. 1705 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:35,920 There's going to be an adjustment period to going back 1706 01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:40,120 to work, but you just make that adjustment and hopefully you've 1707 01:23:40,440 --> 01:23:42,840 improved yourself in the, in the interview leading time and 1708 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,760 you're going to go back and have the opportunity to be the better 1709 01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:47,760 worker, the best worker that you've ever been. 1710 01:23:48,040 --> 01:23:49,760 And you should, should benefit from that. 1711 01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:51,840 This is an opportunity. This isn't something to look 1712 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:54,160 down on and say like all this is going to be a disruption to my 1713 01:23:54,160 --> 01:23:56,240 life. This is an opportunity to maybe 1714 01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:58,920 have a better life entirely. And people should be open to 1715 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:02,360 that proposition. What do you got coming up on 1716 01:24:02,360 --> 01:24:06,560 American Radicals tomorrow?

So we're going to have fun with 1724 01:24:28,480 --> 01:24:29,960 that. Encourage everyone to to join 1725 01:24:29,960 --> 01:24:32,080 us.

For any of you that are 1746 01:25:28,680 --> 01:25:31,680 complaining about mansplaining and you know who you are that 1747 01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:36,440 listen and comment regularly, consider what would it be if it 1748 01:25:36,440 --> 01:25:39,720 was the other way around. Here is a little song about 1749 01:25:39,720 --> 01:25:42,160 mansplaining from the guy's perspective. 1750 01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:46,520 I just read the definition of mansplaining and it sounds a lot 1751 01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:48,080 like how my wife explains things. 1752 01:25:48,840 --> 01:25:52,040 A kind of standing tone of something that is obvious, but I 1753 01:25:52,040 --> 01:25:54,480 guess it's only patronizing if you've got a dip. 1754 01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:58,360 Because I can't remember when a time my intelligence wasn't 1755 01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:01,600 insulted by the results of a comic that she said, like how to 1756 01:26:01,600 --> 01:26:05,760 crack an egg or how to put my son to bed. 5 nephews, 5 nieces 1757 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:07,160 telling me make sure you hold his head. 1758 01:26:07,520 --> 01:26:10,240 But if I tell you to be careful when park in the car not to 1759 01:26:10,240 --> 01:26:12,640 scratch the rims, everybody's like here we go again. 1760 01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:14,240 Now it's all toxic and masculine. 1761 01:26:14,240 --> 01:26:39,200 She's not bought, she's got. Happy husbands, happy wives, 1762 01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:41,240 that's what makes it go around. All right, y'all, get off the 1763 01:26:41,240 --> 01:26:44,240 Internet, get off your social media, get off your phones, go 1764 01:26:44,240 --> 01:26:46,440 out there and do something, even if it's crappy outside. 1765 01:26:46,440 --> 01:26:49,600 Spend some time with family for these last couple days of the 1766 01:26:49,600 --> 01:26:51,040 year. We'll see you again on Monday. 1767 01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:52,120 Hope you have a wonderful weekend. 1768 01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:54,320 God bless you. Go to church, go meet some real 1769 01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:55,400 human beings. If you're out there in the 1770 01:26:55,400 --> 01:26:56,680 dating world and you're thinking, hey, where are the 1771 01:26:56,680 --> 01:26:59,040 good people at? They're probably attending Mass 1772 01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:02,200 on Sunday and they're looking around saying who's not holding 1773 01:27:02,200 --> 01:27:03,760 anybody else's hand? Who's standing there? 1774 01:27:03,760 --> 01:27:06,040 And the pews all alone might be a good opportunity. 1775 01:27:06,040 --> 01:27:09,080 Way better than a chatbot. It's the original connection, 1776 01:27:09,480 --> 01:27:10,560 all right. God bless all of you. 1777 01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:12,520 We'll see you all soon.
