Speaker 1 (00:00):
So as RFK Junior was at the podium yesterday announcing
new health guidelines and showing off the new food pyramid,
his phone rang and it was kind of a funny moment.
I mean, my hope is that we only released earlier today, earlier.
I'm sorry, it's yeah. So his ring tone is a
(00:29):
duck quacking.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
I mean, how on brand?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
I mean funny.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
He's an odd duck. He really is between the whale
carcass and the was it a dead bear? And then
wearing jeans while working out. It's an odd dude. But
the quacking in the middle of the briefing, I know, and.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Just the fact that his phone brings as a duck
like it's it's a duck quacking. It's just so funny.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Can you imagine hearing that every time your phone goes
off quacking noise you even.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Want it ringing like I have. Mine is completely silent.
So unless I'm sitting right next to my phone, I
don't even know what I'm getting.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
A call and I don't know who was who said it,
but they're like, you know, duct time proteins. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
President Trump announced yesterday he wants to ban large investors
from continuing to buy single family homes across the country.
He said, people live in homes, not corporations. Big investors
like Blackstone and JP Morgan Chase and other banks have
purchased large numbers of family homes in recent years, eyeing
rising returns on home prices. These investors often buy and
(01:35):
then rent them out, and it really exploded after the
foreclosure wave during the Great Recession in two thousand and eight,
and so these companies can often pay cash and then
they add to the competition for people trying to find
an affordable home. And then just in the neighborhood that
I was living in, a lot of the homes, I
don't know if they were owned by JP Morgan Chase,
but they were owned by companies. And then what happens
(01:57):
is they don't care who's renting the house, don't care
about the yard, and it becomes a real issue when
all these big companies are buying up homes.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
You do something like this and you make those low
interest rates that a lot of people have on their mortgages,
you make those portable where if you move, you could
take that rate with you, and you open up this
housing market.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Oh yeah, definitely, because the yeah, the interest rate right
now is killing a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
And then Trump he did something else too. He warned
defense contractors that he could limit stock buybacks, dividends, executive
pay things like that if they don't speed up weapons
deliveries to the Pentagon. He finally, I mean the first
time in a long time I've seen somebody go after
the defense contractors that I think rip off America. Oh absolutely,
(02:47):
It's not that they don't make great products, but talk
about nickel and diming us to death, not getting things
done on time. It's about damn time that somebody took
aim at them. And that's what Trump did yesterday. Now,
defense stops they right after he posted that.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yes, the stops for Blackstone and JP Morgan Chase yesterday.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah, eventually they rebounded later in the day. But hey,
you know, if we're gonna have a big defense budget
in this country, which we need, we need to get
you know, we need to get a good deal on
whatever it is that we're purchasing, and we don't get
that right now from these.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Defense contrentclor didn't he just increase it too, from one trillion.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Five and okay, you want to increase it to one
point five trillion and really go all in. Just make
sure we're getting a good bang for our boss.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Nick Reiner was supposed to be arraigned on charges of
killing his father, Rob Reiner and his mother, Michelle Singer
Reiner yesterday, but his high priced attorney Alan Jackson withdrew
from the case, leaving him with a public defender. Jackson
told the judge he had quote no choice but to withdraw,
but says he's legally prohibited from explaining why. He also
(03:51):
made clear that he believes Nick Reiner is not guilty
of murder. And then while Nick was in the courtroom,
he kind of smirked and smiled. He was wearing a
brown suit and shackles at has writs and ankles. He
agreed when the judge asked him if he was okay
with his next court date being February twenty third, and
that was all he had to say now. According to TMZ,
(04:12):
the medication change about a month before the murders is
directly related to his declining mental state. He was diagnosed
with schizophrett schizo effective disorder in twenty twenty and had
been stable on medication for a long time, and then
his doctor changed it and that's when the downward spiral started.
(04:32):
So TMZ actually has a documentary about this whole medicine
situation that's supposed.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
To air on Friday, And you wonder that sounds like
it's going to be a big part of the defense's case.
Oh yeah, absolutely, the doctor's faults that this happened. But
I wonder why a high profile attorney like Alan Jackson
would leave the case.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Well, and I wonder if Nick can't pay him because
I think there's certain things about finances and money and stuff,
and if he does now have access to his parents'
money because he killed them or something. I'm wondering if
that if that might be the issue.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
But I don't know. Yeah, but that would make sense.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Open ai is continuing to integrate all kinds of options
into chat GPT, and now you can connect your medical
records and other data from health apps like Apple Health
and my Fitness Pal. So we talked the other day
about how forty million people are using chat shept every
day for health and insurance related questions. Now they're working
on integrating the apps and they say that information shared
(05:32):
there is going to be analyzed, so you can take
all of your stats, everything all of it and just
and come up with kind of a It can't like diagnose,
you know, it can't replace a doctor, but it can
track patterns and all that using all the data from
the apps that a lot of people I know you
do this are already putting in manually.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Anyway exactly, and I'm tracking different things. So I'd like
to see a more comprehensive overview of all of it,
like bringing all of that data together. And one thing
that I think chat GPT does really well is if
you give it information, it can put together a good report.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Oh, it definitely can.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
The one thing that it's not so good at though,
is telling you how to actually integrate this health app
into your current chat GPT. I'm like, how do I
add my health tracker? And I gave you the wrong instruction. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yes, still has some tweaks that need to be made.
