Hammond mention that secretary is the

2:15

point in met in person with

2:18

President Sheep China. Overnight

2:21

I am. Far

2:24

enough into the David Sanger book

2:26

about our relationship with China to

2:28

think, why do we even try.

2:31

I mean, unless you're going to

2:33

level some sort of concrete threat.

2:36

Any. Nudging or any is useless

2:39

and anything he says to you

2:41

is a lie. Right?

2:44

Unless it's a concrete, you give us this

2:46

and will give you that. I mean, that

2:48

sort of thing is worthwhile, but I read

2:50

a long account of the various topics they

2:52

went into and how blink an urge, deadlines

2:55

and right demand that in the cycle. Was.

2:57

Move right and having you know reading

2:59

that book now. after a series of

3:02

Secretaries of State and Presidents have asked

3:04

for this or warned about that, they're

3:06

gonna do exactly what they want. And.

3:08

Until there's you. Push. In.

3:12

Till you are you know pro been reads

3:14

bone or steal or whatever that metaphor is.

3:17

Ah, And so far as China has not

3:19

they they get to do whatever they want up

3:21

on of I don't know what the point of

3:23

that is. we still think people everybody in the

3:26

world really cares what we think I guess. A

3:30

Cia? I wonder if part of it

3:32

is just the way journalists described the

3:34

stuff and blink and reads it and

3:36

thanks. This. I didn't urged

3:39

them to be better on human rights. I told

3:41

them as they don't do this will do that

3:43

is. All transactional. I just

3:45

went through that part of a book yesterday,

3:47

so that was back when. China.

3:50

Is really starting their of one belt one

3:52

road initiative. Various places me laugh or can

3:54

countries and everything like that. We talked about

3:56

this at the time but. So.

3:59

Me were. These countries.

4:02

Funding a variety of things are offering to

4:04

fund a variety of things in and China

4:06

came in and they chose China. Why did

4:08

they choose China? It's because we were putting

4:10

all these. Strings. Attached to

4:12

the aid we were giving. You have to

4:15

do this in this on Human rights You

4:17

have to. You know you have to zero

4:19

emissions that has to be or a goal

4:21

in all these different things and gay rights

4:24

and democratic reforms Rights If you want our

4:26

aid will give you a you know how

4:28

many billion dollars here and some godforsaken African

4:30

countries but you need to. Human Rights Climate

4:32

change time considered of of l you want.

4:35

We don't care about climate change or human

4:37

rights or would you want to say make

4:39

out that sector will give you this money.

4:41

If you let us be in control

4:43

of your ports and your cell towers

4:45

and a variety of other things. And

4:47

of course we lost the forgot to

4:49

mention yesterday our second African country that

4:51

we've pulled our troops out of in

4:53

the last couple of weeks. Dave.

4:56

Dave. They now are going to rely on

4:58

Sino for their added security in those countries.

5:02

For probably be same reasons I just mentioned

5:04

there are no strings attached with our springs

5:06

that would sinus but not the. Ridiculous.

5:11

Climate change, human rights, stuff that

5:13

we push. This or is

5:15

unrealistic. Well, we just don't have any leverage on

5:17

it. right? Exactly. And since

5:20

mostly most of these companies are

5:22

run by warlords anyway, I mean,

5:24

they, they don't even. Make.

5:26

A gesture toward real representative governess.

5:28

We go in and we say

5:30

you've got a knack these reforms,

5:32

all of which weaken the warlords

5:34

hold on power. Is with

5:37

us again. There's nothing needs representative democracy and

5:39

then painting one of protests and Santa comes

5:41

and says knowledge will give a damn that

5:43

you're a warlord will will make sure you

5:45

stay in power. Would. You

5:47

be scared again to when we're the only

5:49

game in town we could go around saying

5:51

will give you aid if you act this

5:54

way but that's over. With.

5:56

very very few exceptions

5:58

of or ideology in

6:00

history like the US our relationship with Britain

6:03

and in France and a

6:05

couple other countries there's only two ways to

6:07

have friends in international relations either bribe them

6:09

or threaten them that's it and

6:12

a lot of people think foreign aid

6:14

is like generosity it's not it's bribery

6:17

it's pure bribery some of

6:19

which accomplishes some really cool stuff saves

6:21

babies cures diseases the rest of it

6:24

but I think a lot of people's objection to a

6:26

lot of foreign aid is they don't recognize what

6:29

it is and why it happens some

6:31

of its humanitarian I don't mean a hundred percent

6:33

of it but it's mostly just bother anyway

6:37

we've got a lot to talk about this hour

6:39

one more hour of the week it's going to

6:41

be frantic oh my gosh action-packed and infotaining but

6:44

first let's take a fond look back at

6:46

the week that was its cow clips of the week this

6:48

case is an abomination of violent

6:50

15 pounds of meth

6:54

it is

6:57

especially important that we remember the

7:00

power of young people shaping you

7:33

just agreed with Hamas that takes you to the top

7:36

of the building and push you off or just put

7:38

a bullet in the back of your head imagine

7:41

what we can do next

7:43

four more years folks in

7:45

Ukraine are breathing

7:55

a huge sigh of relief I

8:01

want to thank you for such significant

8:03

support. Through

8:05

the triumphs in Ukraine, the next move

8:07

of Russian forces could very well be

8:09

a direct attack on the NATO allies.

8:12

A huge day with high stakes, not

8:14

just for Donald Trump, but any future

8:16

president. Non-disclosure agreements are

8:19

not illegal, and neither is trying

8:21

to influence an election. Blanche called

8:23

that, quote, democracy. Without

8:25

presidential immunity from criminal prosecution,

8:28

there can be no presidency as we know. It

8:32

may be playing Russian roulette, but

8:34

a continuation of the Biden administration

8:36

is national suicide. Trump

8:42

out. Trump out. I

8:45

ought to let the sound of that squish. They

8:55

ought to know my

8:58

current goal. There's

9:04

a lot to take in there.

9:06

That cow was thick. It was

9:08

well marbled. So you

9:10

got these college protesters all across the country. It

9:12

hadn't occurred to me until yesterday. Heard somebody point

9:14

this out. One of the things

9:16

that's changed protesting over the year is

9:19

tent technology. A

9:21

couple of generations ago when I was a kid,

9:23

canvas tents with big stakes you had to drive into

9:26

the ground, you didn't set up

9:28

a tent in less than many, many hours

9:30

and you couldn't drive it into the turf.

9:33

Now, I don't know if you've

9:36

bought a tent recently, but just sign

9:38

a little tent, you basically

9:40

take them out of the bag and they spring to life.

9:42

And now you got a tent and you're safe from the rain and there you

9:45

go. So great time to

9:47

be alive, a great time to protest

9:49

in favor of terrorists. Right. That's right.

9:51

I meant to plug this. If you

9:53

did not listen to our two

9:56

of the show, go

9:58

to armstronginggetty.com, one of the first things

10:00

you'll see is an Armstrong and Getty Select

10:02

cut in which we talk about at

10:05

length how and

10:07

why these lunatics are like

10:10

a trans... it's cross-dressing what

10:12

do they call it? Drag

10:14

Queen story hour? Had little

10:16

kids chant free Palestine. Wait

10:19

a minute drag queen... free

10:21

Palestine? What? And how

10:25

somebody says that climate change is

10:27

not just about energy it's about

10:29

colonialism and racism and structural patriarchy

10:32

and we need to tear it

10:34

all down and the idea that

10:36

it's everything it wants

10:38

ism it's all one

10:41

thing ism is what this one

10:43

writer called it and they are trying to

10:45

tear down Western civilization and there

10:47

are a lot of great quotes and

10:49

they explain it it is rock-solid reasoning

10:51

and we beg of you grab it

10:53

at Armstrong and getty.com because it's really

10:55

important and the reason I brought this

10:57

up and plugging it so strenuously is

10:59

what Bill Barr said that's

11:01

exactly what he was talking about

11:03

how a continuation of the Biden

11:05

administration is national suicide because we

11:08

will continue to indulge the DEI

11:12

structural racism you

11:14

know critical race theory whatever it's

11:17

all tearing down Western

11:19

civilization don't

11:21

believe it listen to the podcast so

11:24

I'm eating in a restaurant the other day with

11:27

Henry and I'm

11:29

usually pretty good at

11:32

not hearing

11:34

other people's conversations they

11:37

can go on around me and I just don't even notice

11:39

them and I know some people are built in such a

11:41

way that if you can hear them you can't not listen

11:44

correct that's me that's you because

11:46

I've known people like that like I

11:48

can't have a conversation with with who I'm

11:50

with because they can't stop listening to that

11:52

booth over there is highly

11:57

annoying for your dinner we

11:59

can't talk because you You're stuck listening

12:01

to them. I usually don't I'm usually

12:03

not like that But the the other day

12:05

this one I think it's because I picked

12:07

up on the topic matter. They were describing

12:09

their Gross dental

12:11

work that they'd had in

12:15

great detail Like

12:17

five feet away from me really loud while trying

12:19

to eat. It was so disgusting Is

12:22

that a is that a moment where you what

12:25

do you do? Is there anything to do in that situation other

12:27

than move? It wasn't really anybody place to

12:29

move to Yeah,

12:32

I yeah, I don't know. I'm That

12:35

sort of situation makes me so uncomfortable like I

12:37

was at a concert the other night It was

12:41

a vocal group thing like a

12:43

choir And and

12:45

there was just mad about Sally Sally's

12:47

man. Joe goes to a lot of barbershop

12:49

quartet stuff I actually I kind

12:52

of do but anyway, but this was

12:54

a more classical thing But this gal

12:57

behind me decides it's time for a

12:59

snack and she's doing what what you

13:01

loathe the most Jack hard

13:04

plastic wrapper Every time

13:06

she goes in for more sneaks quickly quickly

13:08

quickly and it went on for an absurd

13:10

amount of time, right? I always want to

13:12

reach over and yeah, I'm gonna take the

13:14

box out of the plastic now I'm

13:16

gonna hold on to the plastic now you enjoy your mic and

13:18

Iks or whatever the hell it is But no

13:21

more plastic sound or gas. I'm gonna murder

13:23

someone So finally after I

13:25

put up with it I mean I was

13:27

I was went beyond rage to a mucus

13:29

meant back to rage again And

13:31

I finally did something I almost never do because

13:33

I don't like hostility everybody's there to enjoy a

13:36

show I don't want them behind me sitting angry

13:38

at me because then I'll be conscious of that

13:40

and all but I finally turned around give

13:42

her the look at death and and

13:45

she wandered out and actually a little

13:48

bit later on she started coughing uncontrollably

13:50

and And wandered out so

13:52

because you had your arm around her next to tight probably

14:00

Yeah. At a classical concert

14:02

thinking, nah, it's not that loud. And people like

14:04

two rows in front of me were turning around

14:06

like, what the hell? How are you that unselfle

14:09

will? I don't know. I

14:11

don't know. I've got to bring a squirt

14:13

gun with me everywhere I go and just squirt people in the

14:15

face because I'm not a violent man. But

14:17

they need to be corrected. Like a cat on

14:20

a countertop, there needs to be a sanction. That

14:24

reminds me. Somebody at a local

14:26

school, high school kid, had

14:29

a squirt gun, opened the door to

14:31

a classroom, stuck the squirt gun in there, squirt, squirt, squirt,

14:33

squirt, and then ran out. Well,

14:35

it caused a lock down the

14:37

school, searched the lockers, possible

14:40

shooter on campus thingy to happen. Oh,

14:43

no. And it got all completely out of hand.

14:46

Yeah. Wasn't the squirt

14:48

gun made out of bright green plasticers? I have

14:50

no idea. I have no idea. I have no

14:53

idea. That's not a good idea, son. No,

14:55

it was, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Read

14:57

the room, which is the nation. I'm

15:00

all for a good prank, but mmm. Yeah,

15:02

bad choice. Um,

15:06

there's another thing we got to get on before we get

15:08

done today. I don't know. I've lost my

15:10

WTL. Your

15:13

will to live? Will to live? Will to live is

15:15

ebbing. It'd be coffee. Yeah,

15:18

why don't we take a break?

15:20

I've got something pretty interesting on China. I

15:24

don't know people who want that. I don't know people

15:26

that used cars lately. Where is that was going? Remember

15:28

17:44

If I've

17:46

been carrying this globe with me for years, now's

17:48

my time. I got one coming. Hole in the

17:51

glove, man. What can I say? I banged off

17:53

my dome and got a nice little goose head.

17:55

It doesn't hurt. It don't feel good. It felt

17:57

like every bit of 109 miles. on

18:00

our home run ball, yes. Did we get

18:02

the ball afterwards or? No, it skipped over

18:04

the fence, but Josh Pearson, man, he's such

18:06

a great guy. He came to toss me

18:08

their toss ball that they do in between

18:10

innings. Probably Friday I'll go get Tommy White

18:12

to sign it for me and maybe kiss

18:14

my bobo. Sounds

18:16

like a nice guy I would like to sit in

18:18

the outfield with and have a beer and watch a

18:20

baseball game. Big old boy brought

18:22

his glove to the, to the game. So I mean,

18:24

he's a guy expecting to hope to

18:26

get the chance to catch a

18:29

home run. But, uh, straight off

18:31

his noggin. He said, didn't feel

18:33

good. I can tell you that. Pretty

18:38

funny. He's sitting there and he's, he's rubbing

18:40

his head like in the, like it's a

18:42

three Stooges film and he's sitting down and

18:45

rubbing his head. And

18:50

you mocked him. Now you're admitting he seems like

18:52

a fine fellow. I

18:54

tell you what, uh, the,

18:57

what baseball players do in major league

19:00

baseball, um, people understand that

19:02

they could never play football. And

19:04

I think if you've ever sat like close

19:06

to an NBA game, like down on the

19:08

floor, you understand the speed with which it

19:10

moves and, and you think,

19:12

wow, I couldn't hang in there. People

19:14

don't understand how good baseball players are.

19:17

As, as I've heard read the average, uh,

19:20

you know, not terribly old guy

19:22

playing for his softball

19:24

team, whatever, could not play catch with a

19:26

major league ball player. They throw way too

19:28

hard. And you think

19:30

you could catch a towering fly ball. I'll

19:32

give you five chances. No, I

19:35

don't think I could. This guy, so this

19:37

guy went to, I'll bet he played some ball,

19:39

you know, during his pre 300 pound days. I

19:41

don't know. He

19:44

definitely did. Like I would do. He just

19:46

kind of right off his head. Then he

19:48

rubbed it. Oh, wow. Didn't

19:52

feel good. I'll tell you that. I

19:55

was reading this stuff in the wall street journal about

19:57

people buying cars. Now, one thing that stuck out to

19:59

me, I thought. was kind of interesting is

20:03

up until fairly recently it still was

20:05

the most common thing someone did if

20:07

they're going to buy a car was

20:10

an in-person visit at the car

20:12

lot. Now

20:15

online has surpassed that. More

20:17

people pick

20:19

out their cars online

20:22

and quite a few people don't

20:25

visit the lot until like the very end to pick

20:27

up the car. Interesting,

20:29

I've bought and sold cars in

20:31

that way. I think a total

20:33

of three transactions, the online

20:35

thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Especially

20:38

for new vehicles, unless

20:42

you're wondering if, I don't know what you're

20:44

wondering, but yeah, we helped, it

20:46

was kind of a complex deal, but helped a

20:48

couple of our kids buy vehicles and we found

20:50

them the right vehicle through one of those services

20:52

delivered to their doors more or less. Yeah, that

20:55

is certainly the future. And looking at the graph

20:57

here, that is the direction it's going. Phone

20:59

call still tends to be fairly

21:03

popular for your first interaction. Man, I don't call anybody

21:05

if I can avoid it. And not because I'm scared

21:07

to talking about it, it's just because it's usually a

21:09

waste of time. I

21:12

wouldn't even think of that. Excuse me, do you have any

21:14

pickup trucks there? Looking for a

21:16

blue one. Strong

23:23

Overnight, Ohio State University joined the

23:26

growing list of colleges demonstrating against

23:28

Israel's war in Gaza. Earlier

23:32

Thursday, a similar scene at Emory

23:34

University. Social media videos showed officers

23:36

tearing down tents and appearing to

23:38

use a taser on someone pinned

23:40

to the ground. It came a

23:43

day after more than 50 people

23:45

were arrested at the University of

23:47

Texas at Austin. Portraying it as

23:49

a protest against

23:52

Israel's war against Hamas is a

23:54

very charitable

23:57

view of it as opposed to

24:00

They're protesting

24:02

in support of Hamas

24:04

and the terrorists. So a

24:06

former Obama speech writer tweeted

24:08

out, it's dangerous and unacceptable

24:11

to call American protesters and

24:13

college students terrorists or military

24:15

proxies of Hezbollah. Yeah,

24:18

well, have you seen the picture going around of

24:20

a number of different campuses where they've got the

24:22

Hezbollah flag? An organization

24:25

that has been a declared terrorist organization

24:27

by the United States and the rest

24:30

of the world forever? They've

24:32

got the Hezbollah flag. Here's

24:34

somebody sitting around with his acoustic guitar singing

24:37

with people with the Hezbollah flag in between

24:39

them and it's out of bounds to call

24:41

them pro Hezbollah? Yeah, I

24:43

know. Citionic. Actually, a lot

24:45

of it is just, particularly the

24:48

people organizing it, is just this

24:51

overall, this is every issue at

24:53

once. This is,

24:55

it's all one thingism, which we

24:57

were talking about before. It's about

24:59

overthrowing Western civilization, which is why

25:02

you can have such a bizarre

25:04

and unthinkable notion as queers for

25:06

Palestine. And if you're a

25:08

college kid who isn't pro-homos or pro-Hizballah,

25:11

but the people with the flags are

25:13

there, you got to either like band

25:15

together and boot them out or leave

25:17

the protest. Yeah. I mean, we

25:19

went to a lot of tea party rallies and

25:22

if there had been, if the dominant theme

25:25

had actually been racism or something like that,

25:27

I would have left. I wouldn't have just

25:29

stayed there and continued to march and say,

25:31

yeah, I don't believe what they believe, but

25:33

I want to be part of the group

25:36

or something. Right.

25:38

Well, I don't want to weaken

25:41

the cause by leaving, right? Like

25:43

I'm harshly anti-DEI programs, but if

25:45

I find myself, you know,

25:47

with like white supremacists or neo-Nazis or something like

25:50

that, I'm out. I'm gone. That minute. Right. And

25:52

then you got those girls. We played at umpteen

25:54

times yesterday with the one girls. Why are we

25:56

here? I

25:59

don't know. more informed on that. I mean,

26:01

that's. Yeah. Um, here to protest what

26:08

Android you is doing. What are

26:10

they doing again about what? It

26:13

was a comedy routine. Here's

26:15

a little more from the CBS report today.

26:18

Both police and protesters have at

26:20

times crossed the line, says Greg

26:22

Luciano, the president of the Foundation

26:24

for Individual Rights and Expression. You

26:26

don't have a generalized First Amendment

26:28

right to turn the public

26:30

area of a campus into a camping.

26:35

But definitely we've seen that places like

26:37

Emory and places like UT Austin police

26:40

taking things whoop much, much too

26:42

far. Most detained demonstrators have not

26:45

been charged with violent offenses, but

26:47

there have been several instances of

26:49

threatening and abusive behavior. I

26:52

love Greg Luciano. He's one of my intellectual

26:54

heroes. I think he's wrong on that. I

26:57

did not see anything approaching

26:59

brutality or above

27:02

the necessary force to take back order.

27:05

USC has canceled their graduation ceremony. If

27:07

you haven't heard, I think it's gonna

27:09

be the first of many colleges unless

27:12

they all of a sudden get a backbone and

27:14

decide to clamp down on this sort of stuff

27:16

and say, hey, you disrupt the graduation. You're out

27:18

of school. We're kicking you out of school. Mm

27:22

hmm. Unless they do something like that, they're gonna have

27:24

to cancel the graduations because it'll be

27:26

a mess. We'll just be a mess. Yeah.

27:28

And the little activists and

27:31

their overlords, their string pullers

27:33

know that if USC

27:35

or any other university does what's necessary

27:37

to take back control and restore order

27:40

that they'll be sued. Every

27:42

single one of those little windbags is gonna

27:45

get lawyered up and sue them and it'll

27:47

be enormously expensive. It's

27:49

um it's a

27:51

multi front, fairly clever and completely

27:53

insidious war against western civilization. If

27:55

you'd like to hear from one

27:57

of the leaders of the Columbia

27:59

protest. This guy might be the

28:01

leader according to some and some videos

28:04

showing him at the very beginning

28:06

of this thing But he's certainly one of the leaders

28:08

and he put this out himself This isn't like this

28:10

isn't a hot mic caught behind

28:12

scenes, you know Someone close to the

28:14

source leaked it he posted this yesterday.

28:17

Listen to this Being

28:20

glad be grateful that

28:22

I'm not just going out and Murdering

28:28

design I've

28:30

never murdered anyone in my life and I

28:32

hope to keep it that way I

28:35

genuinely hope to keep it that way. I haven't murdered

28:37

any Jews yet I hope to keep it that way

28:39

if that's not a threat. I don't know what is

28:43

Sounds like a bit of a theater major, doesn't he?

28:48

Anyway Speaking

28:50

of Columbia and what's being said there place

28:52

81 muggle So

29:02

Occupation is a crime. They don't want

29:05

a two-state solution. We want all of

29:07

it the guy

29:09

just said he's Hasn't

29:12

murdered any Jews yet and he

29:14

hopes he doesn't have to as

29:16

one of the only use the cover term Zionist So

29:19

he doesn't mean Jews Can

29:24

bullcrap I Guess

29:26

you're not supposed to do this. I keep hearing this

29:28

from various quarters the whole Turning

29:31

it around on the other side, but going

29:34

back to the party go back to the

29:36

for consistency is not a sin Imagine

29:40

one of the leaders of the tea

29:42

parties saying I haven't murdered anybody yet

29:45

I hope I don't have to I

29:47

mean that would just get a pass The

29:50

president wouldn't have an Oval Office address

29:52

about that right,

29:54

right ah

29:58

Some weird times man And again,

30:00

I think, well, I checked in every day with you. Do

30:02

you think this is growing? Staying the same

30:04

or receding at this point? Yeah,

30:08

I beg of you, go to armstronginggetty.com. Listen

30:11

to the select cut about it's labeled

30:13

something about intersectionality, but you really need

30:15

to understand that it's growing in number

30:17

of campuses. Uh, they've clamped

30:20

down on a few and rested a bunch of

30:22

people like in Texas. They did. And so, oh,

30:24

did you see that thing? I tweeted out the

30:26

guy who said, uh, uh, is it up there in front

30:28

of me? Um,

30:31

he said, I think I got it in my

30:33

head. He said, uh, I'm working on my new

30:35

country song. Try

30:38

your campus protest at a college in

30:40

a red state. And,

30:45

uh, in some of the red states, they have arrested people a

30:47

lot faster. Yeah.

30:49

Yeah, absolutely true. Uh,

30:52

you know, it's, I'm, I

30:55

find this stuff so interesting, even as this,

30:57

as it's so troubling being a student

31:00

of radical movements, um, through history, to

31:02

see it unfolding in real time, uh,

31:06

the, the different layers

31:09

of activists that

31:11

are, that range from hardcore

31:17

ideologues who know precisely what they're

31:19

doing to the

31:22

kids who are in young adults,

31:25

many, many women for whatever reason, who

31:28

think they're, uh, trying

31:31

to protect the Palestinian people. And

31:33

they don't know what the ultimate

31:35

aim is really of what they're

31:37

doing. And then the just complete

31:39

go along cause it's fashionable idiots

31:42

like those two young girls in our, our favorite clip.

31:45

Uh, it's, it's wild to see in

31:47

real time, but, but that anger and

31:49

potential for violence and energy, human energy

31:51

that can do real damage. And if

31:53

somebody caves in your head who has

31:55

just a tenth of an idea why

31:58

they're doing it, your head remains. caved

32:00

in. Absolutely and the book I read... Or

32:03

your government overthrown. The book I read about

32:05

the French Revolution when they're where the author

32:07

made the point that and only only really

32:09

need like 15% of people to be interested

32:12

in the revolution

32:14

because you get enough other tagalongs

32:17

that you can win the day and

32:19

we're seeing it now. I don't

32:22

know what percentage of people are on board

32:24

with this stuff but there are a lot

32:27

of tagalongs for a variety of reasons whether

32:29

you're into trans rights or climate

32:31

change or you don't even know why you're

32:33

there but the cool people are doing it

32:35

so I'll show up and yeah it's it's

32:38

quite amazing and again

32:40

women I didn't it didn't make an impression on

32:42

me at time but in the book of tale

32:44

of two cities by Dickens about the

32:46

French Revolution the main revolutionary character in

32:48

that Madame Lafarge is her name was

32:50

a woman her and her friends they're

32:54

willing to spill blood or have the men spill

32:56

blood you know for some reason

32:58

and maybe this will be a good note to end

33:00

the segment on I remember

33:02

so distinctly Gladys my my two

33:04

big kids were probably 13 and

33:07

14 or something like that and

33:09

they they adored their little sister

33:11

they had a nice relationship with

33:13

her but Delaney as

33:15

the youngest was was

33:18

being a bit dictatorial in her

33:20

demand and my two big kids

33:22

having studied the French Revolution

33:26

calling her Robespierre Wow

33:29

and and it

33:31

was funny for a couple minutes but they

33:33

did it repeatedly till it made Delaney cry

33:35

oh and and

33:38

I said all right stop calling

33:40

your super one of the

33:42

lead radicals of the French Revolution all

33:44

right you've heard her feelings now and

33:47

I was simultaneously very proud of my

33:49

children and ashamed what

I have only heard that a

36:08

description. Of

36:11

the up size said that sounds

36:13

awesome. I've only heard a description

36:15

of this clip from Michelangelo, and

36:18

I'm reading the very brief written

36:20

description here on our audio seats.

36:22

Utah couple accidentally set since their

36:24

path to California in an Amazon

36:27

packet. And I'd say

36:29

having not heard it. Effort

36:31

to go viral. Phony!

36:35

More Is the hat

36:54

Or. Know some you would hear knowing. Met.

36:57

Let's find out together for a Michael's. We

36:59

got the most amazing in c

37:01

news in the and. I

37:04

just couldn't even believe that soothing California I

37:06

thought was a pretty try to still still

37:08

hard to wrap my brain around. She was

37:10

trapped in an era on it. When it

37:12

was in this really big sized

37:15

Amazon package and we had no

37:17

idea somehow managed to. The drop

37:19

off without knowing our dear chap was

37:21

inside. And.

37:24

Oh no, they seem so innocent and

37:26

goofy. I'm no, no, you didn't notice

37:28

cat was missing Are they don't say

37:31

they were looking for their tan or

37:33

out of the cab? live? I don't

37:35

understand that. How. Would it have enough

37:37

air to not die? The.

37:39

Sky hated the cat and stuck it in

37:42

the box. insisted off on purpose and as

37:44

like am mad and it was weird honey

37:46

yeah I have no idea how crazy when

37:48

I I'm not away with were free meddling

37:51

kids will never cat now. at

37:53

her i know i don't want to

37:56

answer that stupid phone or his spam

37:58

i needed sexism racism I think for

38:00

good reason that because a lot of the things

38:02

that go viral were on purpose. If it's a hot chick,

38:04

100%, it was on purpose. It's

38:08

a hot chick dressed hot and

38:10

this just happened to me. No, okay, whatever. I know

38:13

what you're up to, all right? All

38:16

right. I've done the

38:18

journalism that needed to be done.

38:21

Let's see. Cats love boxes.

38:23

It appears this cat

38:26

also fancies shoes. I

38:28

don't see how the cat lives.

38:34

Seven days later? Wait a minute. No, no.

38:37

A cat was not in a box for seven

38:39

days and either one nobody noticed it wasn't meowing

38:41

or something when it was running out of water

38:44

or... She

38:47

had jumped slash hidden in one of

38:49

our Amazon return packages without us knowing.

38:51

No, she didn't. Not for seven days.

38:54

Cats can theoretically live up to two

38:56

weeks without food if they have access

38:58

to water but they can only survive

39:00

up to three days without water. As

39:02

all living beasts are. Yeah. Well, they

39:04

got a call seven days later from

39:06

a vet who probably went through

39:08

the whole ship thing. That's an attractive feline

39:11

anyway. The

39:14

box was large and contained five pairs

39:16

of work boots according to Brandy,

39:19

the woman in question. Did I get

39:21

crushed or starve or die

39:24

first or not have enough air? I'm not buying

39:26

this story at all. I'm

39:29

angry about it. Are you questioning the

39:31

USA today? My

39:34

questioning thing of videos going viral? Boy,

39:36

is nothing sacred? The

39:39

vet reported that aside from dehydration and weight

39:41

loss, the cat was in good shape. Said

39:43

the cat, F you. No, I'm not. I'm

39:46

miserable. I was terrified. I'm starving. I had

39:48

no water. I was sure I was going

39:50

to die. My life flashed in front of

39:53

me. This has been a nightmare. Having worked

39:55

at UPS and moved to a gazillion boxes

39:57

in my life, I just can't imagine that

39:59

not. The cat not meowing or you

40:01

notice it shifting around you lift the box or whatever.

40:03

He just it just doesn't make any sense to me

40:06

Oh, come on. I'm looking at the box. They're claiming

40:08

this thing was in no way Liars,

40:11

it had no room. It was

40:13

it. I don't I don't know. I'm not believe that I

40:15

got seems to work for a lot of people I got

40:17

to come up with a dumb way to go viral today

40:19

and then Then wear an Armstrong and

40:21

get a t-shirt when I get on the local news. Yeah,

40:24

my kid fell down the well He was down there for

40:26

three months. I had no idea Exactly

40:32

I'm wearing my arm strong and get a t-shirt. How

40:34

dare you turn my viral video world

40:37

into a den of lies How

40:40

much time ago Michael about 40 seconds?

40:42

Mmm, I'll slip this in I was

40:45

meaning to get to it earlier This

40:48

is from Axios by the way, this is not like

40:50

some right-wing publication The Biden

40:52

team has changed the way Joe Biden

40:55

walks across the lawn from the helicopter

40:57

to the White House They now surround

40:59

him with people so it's not as

41:01

noticeable that he's shuffling along and his

41:03

old mangate Excorting to axios

41:06

and so the him walking alone through the grass

41:08

and shuffling and then trying to run for one

41:11

step They're surrounding with people now so

41:13

that you don't get footage of him doing

41:16

that Still gonna be six

41:18

and a half months till the election Yeah,

41:21

good point and they're already surrounding him with

41:23

people. She can't see him walk He's

41:26

old as the hills and senile and aging

41:28

like a president still Jack

41:32

and Joe continue to Peddle

41:34

their lives about the sanctity and integrity

41:36

of the daily news and their final

41:38

thoughts on Armstrong and Getty And

41:41

they do this as paid contributors to our

41:43

sacred airwaves That's

41:45

pretty good. That's what's their name

41:47

from MSNBC. You made that hilarious comment about

41:49

the sacred airwaves Yeah, Nicole. Why does it

41:51

sound exactly like Nicole Wallace? No doubt Yeah,

41:54

AI Betty here's our here's your

41:56

host for final thoughts Joe Getty

42:00

Final thoughts from everybody on the crew. How

42:02

about we'll lead off with Michael Angelo, our

42:04

technical director, Michael? Yeah, I was very flattered

42:06

by the AI song about Michael Angelo today.

42:08

Although I did feel a little embarrassed. I

42:10

felt like when you're in a restaurant and

42:12

suddenly the entire staff comes and sings Happy

42:14

Birthday to you. I had that same feeling.

42:17

Aw. Ha ha ha ha. Katie Greener

42:19

esteemed Newswoman as a final thought. Katie?

42:22

It's gotten to the point where when I see those videos of

42:24

Biden do that little shuffle jog thing,

42:26

I actually kind of get this nervous,

42:28

like, ah, he's gonna fall. He's gonna

42:30

eat it one day. Yeah, he definitely is. Oh

42:33

boy. Jack, final thought? Oh

42:35

yeah, I accidentally mailed my infant to

42:37

Paris. It put it in a FedEx

42:39

box and sent it to Paris and

42:41

then here it is and look at

42:43

that, I'll be darned. What

42:46

the hell? On the other hand, this thing learned to speak French.

42:48

We. Yeah, no

42:50

kidding. My final thought is, Jack, you've

42:52

been cancer-free for 10 years, so Michael, I think

42:54

it's time for, when Jack says, how much time

42:56

do I have? You go back to

42:59

saying, not long enough. I don't

43:01

like how you look. Okay, you don't look

43:03

that to me. How much time have

43:05

I got left? About six months. Ha

43:07

ha ha ha ha ha. Oh,

43:11

human's joke about what we fear. Oh,

43:13
