Broadcasting live from the Abraham

0:13

Lincoln Radio Studio the George

0:15

Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong

0:17

and Joe Getty, I'm Strong and Getty

0:20

and Key Armstrong

0:25

and Getty

0:30

who from the studio,

0:33

se Se senor.

0:36

You know, I just realized that I've said before,

0:38

I run into work every day. I've

0:41

done that, like since I was nineteen

0:43

doing morning radio. I run

0:45

from my car to the radio station to light, I

0:48

don't know, energize myself or something.

0:51

Well, I get to the point that I'm Joe

0:53

Biden, and I do that kind of half step like

0:55

I'm gonna run, But then I just go back to shuffling.

0:57

Well that happen someday for

1:00

employed long enough to find out. I doubt

1:02

it. Yeah, I doubt I doubt it too. We're

1:05

in a dimly lit room keep with them, the bowels

1:07

of the Armstrong and Getting Communications Compound,

1:10

And today we're under the tutelage of our general

1:12

manager rfk's

1:15

new running mate, Missus Shanahan.

1:19

What she's

1:21

our general manager? What is she gonna tell me? I

1:24

just thought it was such a curious choice.

1:28

Bank finish now, come on, punchy

1:31

No, also considered

1:34

Joe Biden commuter by train

1:37

or the precious little

1:39

princesses at the MSNBC.

1:42

So many choices, none

1:44

of them good. Yeah, that

1:47

Ronald McDaniel, who had been going out of my way

1:49

to avoiding ever talking about because I

1:51

don't care who the chair of the d RNC is,

1:53

but they actually fired her, and

1:56

BC News actually fired

1:58

her because of its It's It's really

2:00

similar to when The New York Times got rid

2:02

of some of their best people because

2:05

the woke newsroom had an uprising

2:07

over the fact that they might allow a Republican

2:09

senator to have an op ed in their newspaper,

2:12

which of course is as normal as normal can be.

2:14

But there was such an uprising

2:17

they fired some of their own people. This

2:19

one reminds me of that, and they let

2:21

their own super

2:24

lefty can't abide

2:27

by any other opinion crowd,

2:31

which in this case includes some of their biggest

2:34

stars. They can't allow

2:36

anybody on there that represents half

2:38

the country's point of view. Remember

2:41

when Jeffrey Goldberg, who runs The Atlantic, pooped

2:44

himself because people objected, well, people,

2:46

the ultra left. He's objected to hiring Kevin

2:48

Williamson as one of the most reasonable people

2:50

in America. In fact, he's so independently

2:53

kind of moderately conservative. I think he's wrong

2:55

a third of the time. And

2:58

then back to the New York Times when they hired

3:00

Brett Stevens to write the occasional editorial,

3:03

I am canceling

3:05

my subscription for the rest of my life.

3:07

I can't believe you would betray America. You

3:10

people are seriously delusional,

3:13

right, And I mean I

3:15

can describe at length and

3:18

with pretty high accuracy

3:20

the points of view of the people I disagree

3:23

with. I understand what they're

3:25

saying. It's wrong, but I get it. These

3:27

people, like the MSNBC crowd, they're at

3:29

least pretending they don't. They

3:31

can't comprehend how anybody could conceive

3:34

of voting for Trump, which is not

3:36

a good way to be for commentator. No,

3:39

but you're not a commentator, you're a panderer, Fox

3:42

who gets called fake news

3:45

by that side of politics.

3:48

They hired, for instance, that Maria Sharf

3:50

woman who is a member of the Blonde spokesperson

3:53

that I hated so much. Everything she said

3:56

seemed like a lie to me. Democrat,

3:58

who is she for Obama? She's

4:00

bomber anyway, Fox hired

4:02

her. They have her on all the time on panels

4:05

discussing things, and nobody

4:07

dies. She

4:10

has a very annoying aspect to

4:12

her, doesn't she I don't know this

4:15

smugness, or I can't even put my finger

4:17

out anything. That's where we are. There will

4:19

be no representation of half

4:22

the country's presidential void voting

4:24

choice on any mainstream media outlet.

4:26

It would seem now this exists on

4:28

the right, to it exists less on the right. I mean,

4:31

for instance, Fox News, which is the biggie

4:34

right wing media, regularly

4:37

has people on who disagree,

4:39

folks who represent to the left on virtually

4:41

every panel, like on Special Report with bright Bear.

4:44

But think about the mindset

4:47

of a viewer who not

4:49

only doesn't want to hear would

4:51

be angered to hear somebody

4:54

express an opposing point of view

4:57

and then have it countered by the hosts that they love

4:59

so much they can't even hear

5:01

their point of view challenged in the least.

5:05

What sort of rigid, sad,

5:07

pathetic person is that, in my opinion,

5:12

to the extent that this matters at all, Here's

5:14

what I think actually matters in this, because

5:17

her voice not being on a bunch of channels

5:20

that most Republicans

5:22

don't watch. Anyway, it's not gonna matter, I suppose,

5:25

but a word will get out that

5:27

once again something extreme

5:31

happened in this direction,

5:33

and hey, NBC, nice job. If

5:35

you accomplished anything with this, you

5:38

got more people to vote for Trump, wouldn't

5:40

you say that's guaranteed. There's not a

5:42

chance that you got less people to vote for Trump

5:45

by doing this. It's either a

5:47

wash or you got more people to vote for Trump.

5:49

So having her on the air was gonna hurt you. I mean, if

5:52

that's what your concern was, that she was going to

5:54

convince some of your viewers to become

5:56

Trump voters. No, but announcing

5:59

to the world that you will not even allow her

6:01

on the air, it's outrageous.

6:04

Pushed some people that were like, I don't know if

6:06

I can go for Trump again into the Trump

6:08

camp, as the mainstream media just keeps doing

6:11

over and over. Yeah, if it has any significance

6:13

at all, and I doubt it will, honestly, I

6:16

just I'm so amused by as

6:19

a consumer and purveyor of

6:22

media that the brass

6:24

thought, you know, we ought to have an opposing voice

6:27

on occasionally, and we can go back and forth

6:29

and that sort of thing, and the hosts

6:31

and the viewers said, no, no opposing

6:33

voice is ever never Please,

6:36

it's just so sad. Right,

6:40

we should start to show officially because our opening

6:42

clip relates to that,

6:44

and I missed it yesterday. It's

6:47

flipping hilarious. I just busted

6:49

out laughing when I heard it. Anyway, go ahead,

6:51

I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty on this. It is

6:53

Wednesday, March the twenty seventh

6:56

year, twenty twenty four. Life will not

6:58

be a bore in twenty four where Armstrong and getting we

7:00

approve of this program. All right, then let's

7:02

begin officially according to FCC rules regulations,

7:04

here comes the show at mark.

7:06

But we've also said election deniers is

7:08

not just they can do that on our airwaves, but that they

7:10

can do that is one of us, as

7:12

badge carrying employees of

7:15

NBC News, as paid contributors

7:17

to our sacred airwaves.

7:19

There you go, our

7:23

sacred airwaves,

7:26

our sacred airwaves. Do

7:29

we still have that liner where we used to call ourselves

7:32

the conscience of the nation, the

7:34

conscience of the nation. I hope everybody

7:36

understood that that was a joke. I

7:38

mean, it was like the idea tongue in.

7:40

Cheap it is it would be hilarious

7:43

to call ourselves the conscience of the nation.

7:46

We still have that, Michael, I would look

7:48

for it. But but she

7:50

said that with complete sincerity. Our

7:52

sacred airwaves. Wow,

7:54

the channel that brought you Joy Read

7:57

and Al Sharpton and Warning

8:00

Joe, those are sacred airwaves.

8:05

That is hilarious. That is it's

8:07

it's parody. I mean, if I were to

8:09

parody the self seriousness

8:12

of MSNBC, I would probably

8:14

say something like that. So they have

8:16

they have placed themselves beyond

8:18

parody because they are so ridiculous. Oh

8:22

my god, Oh my god.

8:25

That was something. So here's a question I got for you. Speaking

8:27

to MSNBC. I watch it a little

8:29

bit every day before I go to work, along

8:32

with a bunch of other channels, to see what's going on. And

8:34

they were reporting on the Keybridge collapse.

8:37

I've become aware that everybody who lives in

8:39

that area calls it the Keybridge, while

8:41

all reporters from other places are giving it the

8:43

full name. That's not what anybody calls it there.

8:45

But anyway, the key Bridge collapsed when

8:48

that big giant boat hit it. Maybe

8:50

you heard that story.

8:53

So the six people that died filling

8:55

potholes up there and are presumed

8:58

dead, which is a horrible story. As watching

9:00

MSNBC, and the anchor on there, who happened

9:02

to be Mika Brazinski said and said, and

9:05

the six were immigrants, two

9:07

from Mexico, two from Venezuela,

9:09

and one from Honduras or something like that. I

9:12

thought, why, what is that?

9:14

What made you say that with that tone of

9:16

voice? Is that worse somehow

9:18

than if it had just been native born Americans

9:21

who were filling potholes, who had their lives snuffed

9:23

out in an instant by a freak accident.

9:27

Well, yeah, oh yeah yeah. Because

9:29

if you are if you have

9:31

less power, it's the great victim

9:34

of pressor worldview. If you have less power,

9:36

if you're the oppressed sorts, you are a higher

9:38

level of human being. It's

9:40

interesting. And they said that with that, I thought,

9:42

am I are you supposed to is this supposed to be getting

9:44

an emotion out of me?

9:45

That?

9:45

Oh, it's even worse than I thought. They were immigrants

9:48

working on there. I don't want to help

9:50

any to die, but why is that the worse?

9:53

If I were Mika Brazinski

9:56

and I were going to speak clearly

9:58

and truthfully, I would say six

10:01

members of the brown underclass

10:04

that we on the left have imported

10:06

to fill our potholes for us in the middle of the night.

10:08

I've died, unfortunately, in the

10:10

middle of the night. Yeah. The people that we make work in

10:12

the middle of the night doing manual

10:14

labor are from other places, because we're

10:17

not gonna have our kids do it. Our kids went to college

10:19

and get a useless degree. They're going to stay home until a job

10:21

falls in their lap. But people from

10:23

other countries, they can come here and work in the middle

10:25

of the night and do dirty, hard jobs. Our

10:28

kids with ethnic

10:30

studies degrees who are sitting at home waiting

10:33

for a job to materialize and waiting for their

10:35

loans to be forgiven. She must

10:37

not dirty their hands filling the potholes.

10:39

Please bring us brown people from the south

10:41

to do the workforce. That's the left, that's

10:44

the progressives telling about. If

10:46

you were going to speak the unvarnished truth, that's what

10:48

she would say. Yeah, well, yeah, how is that

10:50

that not exactly what is happening. That

10:53

is exactly what is happening. That's

10:55

wild anyway, how does mail bag

10:57

look today? Oh? It's good, little of this

10:59

little cool all on

11:01

the way. Our text line is four one five

11:03

two nine five kftc Armstrong

11:07

and Getty Armstrong

11:13

and the Conscience of

11:16

the nation right. And we

11:18

used to play that all the time. That's a joke

11:21

that was want to be so pompous. It's

11:23

ridiculous. I missed the joke.

11:25

It's not we're serious. But when the highly annoying

11:28

Nick Nicole Wallace of MSNBC says

11:30

this our sacred airwaves,

11:33

she's being serious. Your

11:36

sacred airwits. You're a hardly watched

11:38

cable loos channel full of liars. Our

11:40

sacred airwaves, a sacred airwaves

11:43

whatever? Gud you go home feeling

11:45

that way every day, our sacred airwaves.

11:47

I think I saved some more Americans today, honey,

11:50

our sacred airwaves whatever. Wow,

11:52

Wow, that is so cute. Here's

11:56

your freedom loving quote of the day. What

11:59

are your less are known? Founding papas

12:01

Thomas Hutchinson, who was a

12:04

leader of the time and a thinker and fairly

12:06

influential. He

12:08

said this, you must not deprive the

12:10

colonies of their right to make laws for themselves.

12:13

Parliament should only make laws necessary

12:15

for the empire as a whole and

12:18

as an artifact of the revolutionary times.

12:20

That's fairly typical rhetoric,

12:23

right, But when I read that, I thought, replace

12:28

empire, Yeah, empire with

12:31

the federal government or the nation as

12:33

a whole. You must not deprive the states of the

12:35

right to make laws for themselves. Congress

12:38

should make only laws necessary for the country

12:40

as a whole. That's my whole

12:42

thing. The more local governance is, the

12:44

better it is. Can't

12:47

violate anybody's civil rights, of course, but

12:49

I don't tell farmers in Oklahoma how

12:52

to live from DC or from the

12:54

state House. It became obvious

12:56

to me years ago reading lots

12:58

of history. It's completely unfair which

13:00

founding fathers we know of and which ones

13:03

we don't. It's kind of random.

13:05

There's a lot of people involved in the founding in this country.

13:08

Some of their names live on some of them. I mean, there's

13:10

the Abbit, you know, Washington

13:12

and Jefferson, for instance, We're gonna be there no matter what.

13:14

But there's a whole bunch of other ones that just kind of fell

13:16

through the cracks, and they all

13:18

stood up in public and said, come hang

13:20

me if you want, I'm for the revolution and

13:23

incredible courage and wisdom. Here's

13:25

your mail bag. Drop

13:27

us a note mail bag at Armstrong and getty dot com.

13:30

Steve wrote this, Your

13:32

discussion of Socrates and Plato on

13:34

today's show reminded me of writing

13:36

on a bathroom wall I saw when I

13:38

was much younger. It was as follows quote,

13:40

to do is to be Socrates. To

13:42

be is to do Plato

13:46

doo b dooby do Sinatra scooby

13:48

doobe doo scooby do. Okay,

13:52

there you go, He says, I thoroughly enjoy your show,

13:54

to the disgust of my wife. Oh

13:57

wow, Sorry, it's just not a thing. Marital

14:00

discord. Yeah,

14:03

Paul frequent correspondent

14:05

Paolo rights want Trump again?

14:07

Lefties keep doing stuff like this, and then

14:09

he has the link MSNBC NBC

14:12

Newscuts ties with Ron McDaniel blah

14:14

blah blah. I agree, and

14:17

I would say, from a purely practical point

14:19

of view, if you have more perspective

14:22

on okay, why does roughly half

14:24

the country vote for Trump? You

14:26

can much much much better craft

14:28

a strategy to defeat him, which

14:31

is why Jack and I both check out

14:33

mainstream and lefty media fairly frequently.

14:36

I want to know what arguments I

14:38

need to best that I'm

14:40

wrestling against. I want to hear what

14:42

they have to say so I can beat

14:44

them in the stuff that matters. But

14:46

they don't want that. On NBC Our

14:49

Sacred Airwaves, Marty

14:52

responding to my thought it

14:54

was fairly late in the show. I think that we're talking about

14:57

how incredibly unhealthy in virtually every

14:59

way it is stare at screens and to

15:01

flip through social media and

15:04

endorphin. What's

15:06

the term that you were using, culture,

15:08

dopamine culture. That's it? Yeah, And

15:12

I said, when was the last time you had heard

15:14

somebody use the term couch potato? It

15:16

was a term of derision for somebody who just sat

15:19

around staring at their TV, getting

15:21

all flabby and lazy and not living

15:24

their lives. We need more derision,

15:26

but we need a good term, he suggests. Scroll

15:28

trolls. I don't know that I love it. How

15:31

about screen zombies, phone

15:34

junkies something.

15:36

How about wasting your life? That's

15:39

what I think of whenever I'm doing it. I'm wasting

15:41

my life. Yeah,

15:43

I'm becoming increasingly militant just

15:46

about that. For myself. Anyway,

15:49

moving along, I posited that

15:52

John Kirby, spokesperson for

15:54

the administration, one of them is

15:56

a good man who's probably suffering having to repeat

15:59

their they're rationale

16:01

for their terrible policies. Randall disagrees.

16:04

He says, our failure to veto

16:06

the resolution puts the US shoulder to shoulder

16:08

with Russia and China rather than with Israel.

16:11

We allowed the resolution to pass without condemning

16:13

the monsters of Hamas, without

16:16

making a cease far contingent on the release of the hostag

16:18

Jesus of John Kirby were a good man, he would have resigned

16:20

rather than defend the administration on

16:22

this. And then he adds this, I thought

16:24

this was clever as a wagon. Jerusalem reportedly

16:27

said, Joe Biden is working on a two state solution

16:29

Michigan and Nevada. M that's

16:33

really that's some good commentary. It is. Let's

16:37

see. I think you're right. Joe Biden will withdraw

16:39

before the convention, but writes Gary

16:41

and beautiful Mesquite, Nevada. Democratic

16:44

puppet masters power brokers have two choices.

16:46

Keep the empty vessel Biden that they can control.

16:48

They will also control airhead Kamalap

16:51

presumably once father time outs

16:53

Biden or more likely have Biden withdrawn

16:55

releases delegates. June fourth is

16:57

the last primary. My key clue,

17:00

watch the Democrats and mainstream media

17:02

right after this date, especially in July. If

17:04

they start talking up and doing fluff pieces

17:06

on somebody like Newsom or someone like that,

17:08

look for a Biden withdrawal maybe in July before

17:11

the convention. This is the most election of our

17:13

lifetime, So a good point

17:15

come along. The reporting from people with

17:17

you know, talk to that crowd is

17:20

is getting out there over the last couple of

17:22

weeks. In the State of the Union address there, I

17:25

guess we're okay. Is where they're feeling right now?

17:27

We shall see. Yeah, we've got a ways to go.

17:33

Armstrong and getty.

17:36

We know that the ship is about

17:39

as tall, not quite as tall as

17:41

the Chrysler building if you stood her on end

17:43

like this, three football fields in length, about

17:45

a half football field wide, and

17:47

it weighs a tremendous

17:50

amount empty, it's more than one hundred thousand

17:52

tons.

17:53

Well, it took a long time for people to get

17:55

around to how much that thing weighed yesterday. Didn't

17:57

it so empty? It's one hundred thousand

17:59

tons, and it was nowhere near empty.

18:01

It was packed full of all those cargo containers.

18:04

So what the heck did it weigh? Yesterday? I

18:07

heard us listening to a podcast yesterday

18:09

and somebody stated to fit definitively,

18:11

bridges don't fall down because ships run into

18:14

him. Well, I think, I think if one hundred

18:16

thousand tons plus hits it, it does, So

18:19

that's ridiculous. As I predicted, yesterday,

18:21

social media was full of various

18:24

folks who have, you

18:26

know, predictable content for their usual

18:29

audience, spouting their usual nonsense.

18:31

And you know, so I was watching James

18:33

Stravitis on one of the cable news channels. He

18:35

used to run NATO. Is why he's on most

18:37

of the time to talk about like Ukraine and Russia.

18:40

But he was He was in the navy and he piloted

18:42

aircraft carriers which are almost exactly

18:45

the same size as a ship, so he

18:47

he know a lot about pilot and a ship this

18:49

big, and one thing I didn't know, and he

18:51

said the same. The thing that everybody recognizes,

18:54

I think is that he can't. These things take

18:56

a very long time to stop. That

18:59

that whole thing, and that like, if this happened further

19:01

out, wait further out, you'd

19:04

drop your anchors and wait for it to drag you to

19:06

a stop. That'd be the first thing you do. But they didn't have time

19:08

for that. What was one

19:10

of the things I wanted to point out, Bob, I

19:12

wonder how long that would take? How long would

19:14

those big giant anchors drag along on

19:17

the seafloor, and what would it do to it? Right?

19:19

I Like the comment we heard yesterday is one thing you

19:21

don't want to do is if you run aground,

19:24

is any of your anchors

19:26

up? You want to look like you tried as hard

19:28

as you could. Yeah, it won't do you s worth

19:30

of good, but it'll look like you tried. Yeah.

19:32

Well, we got to get that audio. The the

19:35

the basically the nine to one one calls, if you

19:37

will. The announcements by the

19:39

various people involved in like we got to stop

19:41

the traffic and the ships coming

19:43

in and all that sort of stuff is really amazing how

19:46

it unfolded. These people stayed incredibly

19:48

calm, made really good decisions really fast.

19:51

It was awesome. I mean, that's

19:53

the way you hope people

19:55

who are sworn to serve and protect can react

19:57

when these things happened. Now, that was really really great

20:01

and got a whole bunch of people off the bridge and stopped

20:03

a whole bunch of cars from going on over

20:05

the bridge. But the one thing that's

20:07

Travinus, who's piloted aircraft carriers

20:10

said, and if you've ever piloted a

20:12

boat or even a jet ski or anything like that,

20:15

like we talked about yesterday, you know, unless

20:17

you're like propelling yourself, you can't steer.

20:20

I mean you stop your jet ski and you

20:22

start floating toward the dock. You can move

20:24

your handlebars however you want, but you're not steering

20:26

until you give yourself some oomph. And so that that

20:28

boat was in that situation also and not being

20:31

o. But they practice that every

20:33

single time they go out. I didn't know that

20:35

they practice the if we lose

20:37

power, what do we do? Is something you practice

20:40

every time you go out, So

20:42

it's not like it would catch you, Oh my god, we've lost

20:44

power? What do we do? I don't know. I mean, it's

20:46

not like that at all, right,

20:49

right, that is interesting. Yeah, I didn't. I wouldn't

20:51

have guessed. I was kind of figuring it was more of a panic sit Well,

20:53

I'm sure they were in a panic, but but it's

20:55

something you do drill for regularly. Well,

20:58

and I have heard nobody's suggest anything,

21:01

But there was nothing they could do,

21:03

having had a catastrophic loss of

21:05

power twice, which some are

21:07

suggesting might have been from dirty fuel.

21:09

They had bad fuel, but

21:12

I'm sure they'll figure that out. So there's

21:15

nothing anybody could do. Somewhere there

21:17

might be human error in maintenance

21:19

of the ship, or it's put bad fuel

21:21

in there, who sold it to them and that

21:23

sort of thing. Yeah, I'm just saying

21:26

at the moment of the power failure, it was over.

21:28

She was hitting the bridge. So I heard Biden

21:30

say yesterday that the federal government was

21:32

going to cover every bit of this, every bit. And when

21:34

I first heard that, I thought, why

21:37

does the federal government cover If

21:40

it's a benefit to the people of Baltimore

21:42

or Maryland to have this bridge

21:45

and commerce, why do I pay

21:48

for it out here? But I guess it's because it's an inner

21:50

state. I

21:52

had Michael play eighty four for us.

21:55

That's my intention that federal government

21:58

will pay for the entire cost of just ducting

22:00

that bridge, and I expect the

22:02

Congress to support my effort. This

22:05

is going to take some time. The people

22:07

of Baltimore can't count on us, So to

22:09

stick with him at every step of the way

22:11

till the poor is reopened and the bridge is rebuilt.

22:14

We're not leaving until this. Chombkastan, Now,

22:17

I know the answers to these questions, but I'll ask

22:19

him anyway, is that standard

22:21

procedure for the federal government and

22:24

the taxpayers of the rest of the states to replace

22:26

bridge boat disasters. I'm not ranting

22:29

and raving that this is wrong, but it

22:31

struck me the same way. It's like, is

22:33

that what happens if a bridge falls down? All

22:35

taxpayers around the country pick up the tab. And

22:38

if that is the standard operating procedure,

22:40

why was it necessary to say, Well, that's an

22:42

election year and you want to demonstrate

22:44

you being with the people. But if it's not standard operating

22:46

procedure, why are we doing it? Why? Now, well,

22:49

it's because it's an election year. Anyway,

22:51

that just struck me as either pandering

22:53

or unnecessary. I mean, if

22:55

he were to say the

22:58

only good news out of this tragedy that, of

23:00

course, the Federal Maritime

23:02

Act of eighteen forty seven makes clear the

23:04

federal government will take care of all of this.

23:06

This will not be a burden to the good people, because

23:09

this is an important part of our infrastructure. But

23:11

no, he just said the federal government will pay for the whole

23:13

thing. Again. Why

23:16

one thing that big spending democrats

23:18

don't get is that doesn't

23:20

strike fiscal

23:23

conservatives as good news.

23:26

You always think it's good news when you announce

23:28

this will get paid for by the government. Yay.

23:31

No, I don't say yay. Ever, why

23:33

am I paying for that? Explain to me why

23:35

I in California am paying for that bridge.

23:38

If there's a reason, fine, but I don't

23:40

automatically react of that's

23:42

fantastic. Now,

23:44

this is just a quirk of Biden,

23:47

but I think it's fairly amusing Play eighty three

23:49

for us.

23:49

Michael, how about one thirty container

23:52

ship structure Francis Scott's Key Bridge,

23:54

which I've been over many, many

23:56

times commuting from the state of Delaware

23:58

and our trainer by car are Ben

24:01

and Baldilah Harbor many times.

24:04

So people are making a big deal of

24:06

the fact that you can't go over it by train.

24:08

There are no tracks. It's merely a

24:11

vehicle bridge and automotive bridge. Well,

24:13

if you will a road, but

24:15

number one, number

24:18

one, he's the president, So he could have commanded

24:20

the train to drive across that bridge. He

24:23

would tear up the pavement. But he's the president,

24:25

dammit. And so

24:28

that was ridiculous. But I just and

24:30

I'm just asking on a human

24:32

level, what is it with Biden who's

24:35

always got to say, I've

24:37

been across this bridge many times. I

24:40

know these waters. I've looked at these waters.

24:43

I once saw dude fishing and he pulled a big

24:45

fish out of it. I know these waters. I've

24:49

had family members die too, or I've

24:53

I don't know, is that like politician one on one to

24:55

relate your experience to whatever

24:57

it is you're talking about. Yeah, No,

24:59

I don't want to fixate on Biden and as many foibles,

25:02

but I came across a really odd

25:05

uh example, get another example

25:07

of how he makes stuff up that we'll get to later

25:09

on. But it's it's it's horrifying

25:12

and hilarious. It's horrifarious.

25:14

If you'll stay tuned. Now, we do have the audio

25:16

you're talking about of the folks saving

25:19

lives. That's eighty five Michael see

25:21

what are you guys on the south side. One of you guys

25:24

on the north side, hold all traffic on

25:26

the key Bridge. There's a ship

25:28

approaching has just lost their steering,

25:31

so they say, you've got under control. We got to stop all traffic.

25:33

All traffic

25:35

stopped at this time.

25:38

Once you've been here, I'll go brad the

25:40

uh workers on the Key Bridge

25:42

and then stop the OUTO thirteen

25:45

that the whole bridge just fell down.

25:47

Start starts, whoever everybody,

25:50

the whole bridge just lapsed.

25:52

That.

25:52

It's definitely not the audio i'd heard before, but fine,

25:55

uh okay uh. That was

25:58

amazing though, stopping the traffic quickly

26:00

and then saying as soon as it stopped, I'm going to go rescue

26:02

those workers, and then unfortunately they

26:04

couldn't do it no time.

26:06

That bridge is one point six miles

26:09

long. The astonishing,

26:11

and the whole thing went down in like what second

26:14

and a half? Yeah, yeah,

26:17

certainly the part over the water.

26:19

Yeah terrible. Anyway, have

26:23

you seen anything where they're talking to, like the

26:25

guy who drives that boat, I

26:27

mean, has that guy been anywhere? No,

26:30

he's in the NTSB's interrogation

26:34

center fifteen stories

26:36

under the ground, secret chick

26:39

Cheney's there. I mean, they did the right

26:41

thing obviously, in the Mayday call and everything like that,

26:43

alerting into their power which helped save

26:45

a lot of lives and all that sort of stuff too. But man, I bet

26:47

that was an awful situation for him, And

26:49

I would assume he walked off

26:51

that boat and straight into the arms of a whole bunch

26:53

of investigators. Oh

26:56

yeah, I wonder everybody on board. I wonder if he even got

26:58

to go home last night. God, that would be a

27:00

horrible situation. Well, home

27:02

might well be Malaysia or something. Of course,

27:04

you've got the harbor. Have you heard it

27:07

nailed down? If there's like a harbor pilot

27:09

and tug boats and stuff like that, or was the vote under

27:11

its own power at that? I think it was under its own power?

27:15

I don't know, But so do

27:18

you have the answer though, before we move on to why

27:20

the federal why all taxpayers pick

27:22

up the tab for that? I have no idea. Do

27:25

you have a guess?

27:29

Does it it was reasonable that the federal

27:31

government picks up the tab for that? Well,

27:33

it doesn't even strike me as non fiction.

27:35

Yet it might be entirely

27:38

fictional that Biden said that that might

27:40

not be the case, that

27:42

that's not a thing. Yeah, well

27:44

remember if. But

27:47

my point is in an election year, that

27:49

doesn't make me want to vote for him more. Who's

27:52

that for? What he said

27:54

was the federal government will pay the whole

27:56

tab to rebuild a bridge, and I hope Congress

27:59

will cooperate or something. So he implied

28:01

that something's got to be done to

28:03

enable that to happen. But you're saying it's for an elegend here

28:06

that helped them. Might make the people Baltimore drive

28:08

over that bridge happy, but I think the other three hundred

28:10

and forty million of us might wonder, why are we paying for

28:12

it? Don't we or does everybody

28:14

heard of it? Or does everybody think that's an awesome idea?

28:17

No, I think it's it's a you're you're not

28:19

seeing the uh the exposure

28:23

algorithm. I'm trying to come up with a term

28:25

as if I know it and I'm just making not

28:28

making it up. Uh. One hundred

28:30

percent of Baltimoreans will hear

28:32

him say the Feds have got this. Three

28:34

percent of people in the rest of the country

28:36

will be aware that he said that. Ay,

28:39

so I see, I

28:41

see and DC and Baltimore are

28:43

side by side in case you don't ever travel or

28:45

that sort of. That's the local federal exposure

28:48

coefficient. All right, cool.

28:50

We got a lot of stuff to talk about today on

28:54

all kinds of different topics, but we've got Katie's headlines

28:56

on the way.

29:03

Trump put on a heck of a video yesterday

29:06

on truth Social announcing that

29:08

he's selling Trump Bibles, the

29:11

Bible Special Trump

29:14

Lee Greenwood Bibles. They're sixty

29:16

dollars apiece, the Trump Lee

29:18

Greenwood Bibles. Lee Greenwood, who sang

29:21

what that mo? Is that proud

29:24

to be an American song? What is that song

29:26

called God Bless the USA? Right

29:28

right right? And he said the

29:30

only official Donald Trump

29:33

Lee Greenwood Bibles if you want, if that's

29:35

what you want, and will have to play some from

29:37

the announcement. It's something. Ah,

29:40

yes, it is something on Easter

29:42

week? Yes. Plus,

29:45

what are obituary pirates

29:48

are? He was a fine captain and

29:50

we'll be missed by his entire crew. Now

29:53

that would be a pirate obituary obituary

29:56

pirates. Yet another weird twist

29:58

on people stealing from others on

30:00

the internet. Oh great, yeah,

30:02

oh one plug the Internet.

30:05

I got to talk about my old neighbor who passed

30:07

away last

30:09

week, and and my observation of

30:11

this whole situation, it's it's he

30:13

can find it very deep. Wow.

30:16

Okay, all right, let's

30:19

figure out who's reporting what. It's the lead story with Katie

30:21

Green. Katie, Hey, Katie, you want to know what I ate for dinner

30:23

last night? Here's a headline. What did I eat

30:25

for dinner last night? What did we door? Dash?

30:27

My son and I. So, my one son's camping,

30:30

so it's just me and my oldest son, So me and

30:32

a teen and a teenager, fourteen year old.

30:34

I'd let him choice. So what did we

30:36

eat? Panda Express?

30:40

Wow? Okay, I was braced for something

30:42

far worse than that. Yeah, not awful.

30:45

Now my son said, how

30:47

is this so cheap? I

30:49

said, oh,

30:52

that is parody and not at all actionable.

30:54

I'm off. I had to sorry, I have a

30:57

call. They have lawyers.

30:59

We had many many a meal

31:01

when my kids were in high school, middle

31:04

school, in playing soccer at the

31:06

panda Yes, it's Michael Tell

31:08

you're gonna say gas station sushi.

31:10

Yeah.

31:11

I was expecting really,

31:13

Oh yeah, like pizza and burgers

31:16

and fried chicken. That's what I guess. The

31:18

Panda Express is embraced and more than I

31:20

recognized. I thought I was in danger of having my

31:22

children taken from me. But that's

31:24

okay to feed your kids pandas. Yes,

31:26

yeah, okay, okay, okay, all

31:29

right. By the way, Flation,

31:31

I ordered the walnut shrimp and there

31:33

was like this tiny little box like you'd

31:36

have to get to a girl with a ring in it, and

31:38

it had like four little

31:40

shrimp in it. Wow, shrimpy shrimp.

31:43

The one thing I'll always remember about the Panda Express

31:46

that we used to go to is that there would always

31:48

be a line out the door. I mean the stuff with the place

31:50

was constantly busy. Then two storefronts

31:53

away in the same little strip mall was this Japanese

31:55

restaurant that was always completely

31:58

empty. Oh and I just picture

32:00

the folks who put their life savings and

32:02

their hopes and dreams and probably standing

32:04

there behind the counter. I told you to go

32:07

Chinese, and you assisted, No, Japanese

32:09

is the way of the future. Anyway,

32:14

Katie, who's reporting?

32:15

What?

32:16

All right?

32:16

We have market Watch renting is

32:18

now cheaper than owning in all

32:21

of America's fifty biggest metro

32:23

areas.

32:24

Wow, that's interesting. I'm thinking of making that decision

32:26

myself. It looks like it just financially

32:28

and since nobody has any idea what's going to happen.

32:31

Maybe I'll just rent again. Huh, I'll be darned.

32:34

Or maybe See news Social psychologists

32:37

says kids shouldn't have smartphones.

32:40

Before high school.

32:41

Scott talks about how memories from childhood

32:43

usually consist of playing outside, making

32:45

up rules to games, and being kids, and

32:48

phones are stopping that.

32:49

Oh that's so well said, and this reminds

32:52

me of one of those propositions put up

32:54

before a meeting. I assume we're all in

32:56

favor, and everybody says, yeah, absolutely.

32:58

I have not heard any dissent on that

33:00

that is bad for young kids to

33:02

have smartphone. The descent is in the reality.

33:05

How many kids do I know under sixteen with smartphones?

33:07

All of them except for mine,

33:09

and that's only because he abused the

33:11

usage of hisney got it taken away.

33:14

But yeah, practically everybody

33:16

33:35

Then they cut off their ankle monitors when

33:37

they get caught.

33:38

access to the richest country on Earth

33:44

for capita, aside from a couple

33:46

of oil shakedoms, and we can just

33:48

sneak across and then they don't even like to make

33:51

you show up for the hearing, and we can do our crimes

okay, anger problems.

34:46

I think there are better ways to deal with this, uh,

troubling, troubling fad.

34:52

Let's thank you for your input sir.

34:55

And finally, the Babylon Bee Trump

34:57

announces he will pay entire bomb

35:00

using bags of nickels.

35:03

Yeah, we've gotten several texts where he ought to pay his bill

35:05

in all pennies or something like that, which

35:09

I guess people do sometimes is a sign

35:11

of how angry they are about their speeding ticket or

35:13

something. You show up with a bag full of pennies, I

35:16

will show you by giving you a logistical

35:18

nightmare, which

35:20

was a logistical nightmare for me to put together.

35:23

So hm, who who showed

35:25

you exactly?

35:29

We got to play clips from the Trump Bible announcement.

35:31

It's a good one.

35:35
