Speaker 2 (00:24):
Arms I'm a from studio scene see Senior. It's frie
before Thanksgiving week and today we are under the tutelage
of our general manager.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
The humble American traveler who seeks only to reach the hearth.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
And home of his hearth?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Are they themse loved ones to break bread and give
thanks for the bounty they have received, and perhaps a drink.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Or two to take the edge off.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
There you go exactly, or to tolerate to some uh,
you know, your your niece's boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Perhaps for instance, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
You got a minor guy said, it's a medium sized gathering.
It's gonna be my mom and dad, me, my brother,
and my two kids. So that's nice.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
That's very nice.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
But we always did nuclear family for Thanksgiving always, I think,
every year of my life, and then I know other
people who do, mostly because we didn't live around people.
But I've been to many people like girlfriends. I guess
you got the big twenty five people gathered together and
everything like that. That's just freaking awesome. If you do
that sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Oh yeah, it's festive. Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I've done those, you know, each and all points in between,
and yeah they're all nice in their own ways. Yeah,
they all are. And h Hanson and I were talking
about this yesterday, just the if you go somewhere else
and you kind of arrive for the meal and everything
like that. We're just discussing the idea of kids not
seeing the everything that goes into the Thanksgiving meal and
(02:05):
sort of making the emphasis on this is a big deal.
I mean, look how much work we put into this.
Mom got up at five in the freaking morning to
get the turkey out of the freezer like my mom
always did, and you know, works all damn day long
a number of people usually, and getting that whole meal
together and everything like that. Although we were discussing as
a kid, it's just such a you know, because food
(02:26):
doesn't matter that much to you as a kid generally.
Maybe the pieta is kind of but mostly not. I
remember Thanksgiving and I'm gladys do you work anymore? Jake? Sad?
Speaker 1 (02:36):
That was sad. That was a quick, quick la.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
She's just cilar to me that this was a story
from your yesteryear at all. And she's trying to get
off the caffeine too. She told me, yesday she drinks
she drinks red Bulls all day long, and she's trying
to quit the caffeine.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
And I said to her, you're too old. You're a
World War One veteran.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
You're too old to be pounding red bull.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Plus all that prune juice to keep a regular.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
So, oh, yeah, my god, I remembered Henry was probably
five maybe. Anyway, We're sitting at the Thanksgiving because Thanksgiving
had been building up and building up and building up,
and then we sit there at the table and he said,
this is all that it is because he didn't really
know what it was. He just knew there was a
thing coming, Thanksgiving is coming. And then we sat down
to me and he's just like, he's like, this is
(03:21):
the whole thing?
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Is this? I don't even care about this.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
A slightly different array of food here on the table.
I uh that there's no presence. We're not going anywhere.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
There's nothing you'll misled, no.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Kidding, well, you know, getting back to seeing the you know,
the preparations and stuff too. Things Number one, it sends
the lesson that, Hey, it takes work to get special things.
And secondly, I think it sends a message about the
importance of coming together and giving thanks and that sort
of thing. If that is indeed part of your Thanksgiving.
(03:52):
And if it's not, read the name of the freaking.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
Holiday again, Huh, you're sticking a thumb in a Lincoln's eye.
He declared the holiday and this is a Lincoln creation.
Uh yeah, yeah, he decreed a day of Thanksgiving that
evolved into something then got fixed on a date.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
The story's a.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Little vague in my mind. Macy's and then Macy's had
an inflatable snoopy. It's a long story, right.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
We always do the going around the things you give
thanks for. That's a huge part. It's really interesting to
watch that with your kids too, as a grown up.
They tend to be the same every year.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
A little bit.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Yeah, a lot of health and thank god I haven't
been afflicted with many of the terrible things that you
know people around me have been.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Thank God Trump one will be a popular one. And Thanksgiving, wow, yeah,
you know what lead with that. That's great, especially if
it's a big family gather. I was just reading, so
I am not in the mood to talk about really
any of the news, though it's sort of contractually required.
But I was listening to music my car and trying
to sing in the high harmony parts and just you know,
(05:03):
I have no pam BONDI whatever. I'll talk about it
next year. But I was just reading this piece of
the New York Times about, well, the headline is this
is Thanksgiving related the turkeys did nothing wrong? What the
turkeys have done nothing wrong? And it's centered around the
(05:25):
idea of how so many turkeys are slaughtered for Thanksgiving
and maybe we should eat something else, so you'd rather
slaughter a cow. I don't understand why unless we're not
gonna eat meat, you're just gonna slaughter a different animal.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
So that's kind of weird.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Yes, many more turkeys are slaughtered for Thanksgiving than other days,
but if we don't eat the turkey, we're preak gonna
eat you know, a cow or a lamb or something else.
But anyway, they also centered around the presidential pardon of
the turkey, which we have mocked every single year of
our radio careers, and how what are you pardoning the
turkey for? The turkey has done nothing wrong? The turkey
(05:58):
can do nothing wrong. Number one, just when.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
You have thought they were is loopy and ridiculous as
they could possibly get.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
You come across that. I have two thoughts number one,
and they're both obvious. Number One, those turkeys would not
exist were it not for the fact that they would
be harvested to put be put on a plate. If
people ate ham exclusively, those turkeys would not be slaughtered
because they never would have been hatched. Secondly, deliciousness is
a crime, and the penalty is death. Sorry, the penalty
(06:30):
is gravy. That's just the way the world works. But
the turkey has done nothing wrong and can do nothing wrong.
The turkey is innocent. And I think they're writing that
with a straight face. I think they are.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Wow. Okay, you all. I was thinking about this morning
for some reason. In the show. You all just keep
going with that stuff. Good luck with your future elections.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Just keep going with that crazy crap of all different
sorts of stripes.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Just keep pushing. That's so many good exams apples of that.
Knock yourself out. I'm not even gonna try to argue
out of your positions. Just go ahead. No au contraire.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Specifically, I was corresponding with a friend of Armstrong and
Getty and reading an article, and it would appear that
large swallows of the left are utterly unaware of what
just happened and why it happened. I mean, like completely
in denial, to which I say, deny away, friend.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Yeah, no kidding, go ahead, keep thinking it was racism
because she was a woman.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
There's a reason.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
And then we on the other side will win a
lot for their age. Misspent the ad dollars slightly. Yes,
that was it.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
You're right, you're right, nailed it. Let's start the show officially.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty on this It is Friday,
November twenty second, the year twenty twenty four. Life will
not be born twenty four were Armstrong and getting We
approve of this program. Let's begin then, officially according to
FCC rules and regulations, leaping into action at mark.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I am not suicidal. I am not suicidal, And I
could have.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Said that I was guilty a long time ago.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Not one of his better performances.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
In my mind, the great Jesse Smolette, or as Kid
Rock said, you're Jesse now.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
You know you gotta earn Jesse you're Jesse's you see Smolley,
as Steve Chappelle would call him.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
We're gonna revisit, in fact, retry that case as as
a lot has happened in the last twenty four hours.
And we've got some audio for you that maybe you
haven't heard or have heard, but it's good to hear
again of him describing is made up freaking crime of
the bodyblders who attacked him, explaining how they did it.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
The whole thing is just crazy.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Yeah, well see Armstrong in getting court of justice will
be gabbled into session and justice will be swift and harsh.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Some of these is just thinking we have to do
our Thanksgiving talk now kind of because we're off next week.
One girlfriend I went to her house. She was a
German family and her like parents still spoke German. Her
grandparents almost exclusively German, as a lot of Germans South
Many Many.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Germans, regular Old Germany Many Germans settled in uh in Kansas.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Read the book The Worst Hard Times about the depression
into the dust dust Bowl for that.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
It's pretty interesting.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
But anyway, they had at Thanksgiving, and man was she
a good cook. They were all just amazing cooks. And
they called things by names I couldn't pronounce. But they
put a pig's head on the table, like an entire
pig's head, Like it looked like a pig's head.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
It wasn't there.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
They didn't have to tell you it was a pig's head.
It was clearly a pig's head when they set it
on the table, is looking right at you, unmistakable, And
then it was. And then it was had been cooked
and boiled in or whatever in such way that then
the you just with a fork, you just kind of
meat just fell right off the face. It was a
little too farmed a fork for me, you know, I
(09:54):
like a layer between the farm to fork, just like
one layer of grocery store plastic around it or something.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
It's like you're in the pen with a gun and
a cleaver.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
I mean, like you practically still hair oinking. It was
a little too close for me.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
You know, I can handle.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I can handle a fish looking back at me. Oh,
it's a fish. It's got the mind of a fish. Sure,
I got porky staring me in the eyes. I'm thinking
you're you're accusing me of and I'm guilty. I've murdered
that was rough. It was good, but I found it
hard to get down. I didn't say anything, of course,
because I'm blanked. How does mailbag look?
Speaker 1 (10:34):
What's good? Plus we have clips of the week.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Right, and we will get into some of the news
of the day. And the Gates story went away fast
soon as they named somebody k new huh.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
That's a good way to do it.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
If you got somebody who steps down in controversy or whatever,
name with new person and everybody's onto the Hey, who's
this new person?
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So fast? A lot of reasons.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Nobody wants to talk about Gates and his nomination and
the rest of it.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Let's just move on. Yeah, uh.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Oh, scary announcement out of South Korea about North Korea
and what's going on there. So a whole bunch of
different stuff for you. Our text line is four one, five,
two nine five KFTC.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
I'm reading that.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Entire essay in the New York Times about pardoning turkeys.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
How it got started, and.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Then this person is horrified about the idea of suggesting
the turkey is committed a crime.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I'll have to get into that later. It's hilarious, is
it tongue in cheek? No? No, no, no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
These are people that have stopped eating turkey at their
at their tables because of the way turkeys are treated.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Okay, that I get. But the whole Pardons thing, it's
it's an idiotic little thing for kids.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
I didn't realize how it started. It's pretty interesting. So
stick around. Okay, if I must, then I must. I've
read the contract, all right.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
We have mailback coming uh mailback coming up.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Freedom loving quote of the day. But first, let's take
a fun look back at the week. It was. It's
cow clips of the week. Which of the week.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
It's increasingly clear it is Donald Trump's world and we're
just living in it. Joe and I went to mar
A Lago to meet personally with President like Trump, Why
wouldn't we He's killing us.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
We cooked a crap here.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I am very fastly picking the most epic cabinet of
all time.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
What are you thinking about? Well, we've got Elon and
Matt Gates. That's an alien versus predator. Gates listened to
what the senators had to say. Great day momentum for
the Trump vance administration. I prefer to call it fun
fueled camaraderie. You have this stunning reversally, it.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a destruction.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I mean, frankly, it's been a wink of escalations.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Firing the first American made long range missiles into Russia, but.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
That could now trigger a nuclear response.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Ukraine and listening saying is an ICBM striker.
Speaker 6 (13:11):
This trial is seen as the most significant sign of
Beijing tightening its control of Hong Kong Yea.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
The great thing about this age you don't learn by
your mistakes.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
You just keep doing the same stupid things. Everything's cutting up, milhouse.
Is there anything do they like? Shelax the banana? Praise?
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Shellac in the banana is not something we need at all,
not during the holiday season.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
It's always nobody counts here, but nobody wod the president.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Yes, oh my god, we need chester.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
And then he hit them with a right along tyson
coming forward.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
But all it's landing the cleaner effective punchet there.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Guys, how are you kidding me?
Speaker 3 (14:08):
That reminds me that piece of art the banana taped
to the wall that sold for one point six million dollars.
My son said, this would have been a good bit too.
Mister beast should have purchased it then just eaten it,
just torted off the wall and eating it. That'd a
been a very mister beast thing to do.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
Well again, my question is, given the legendarily short shelf
life of the humble banana, do you like constantly get
new bananas like it's a subscription or do you just
have the same rotten banana that rots away to a
little black piece of shoe leather.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Decent point that piece of art only looks like the
picture for like two days, right, and you'd you'd be
very disappointed.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
Here's your freedom well up in Quota today, sent along
by Alert listener Corey from Yuval Noah Harari in his
book Homodeis quote in the twenty first century, we will
create more powerful fictions and more totalitarian religions than in
any previous era. Being able to distinguish fiction from reality
and religion from science will therefore become more difficult, more
(15:11):
vital than ever before.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
That's his follow up book to Homo Sapiens, which I'm
reading currently. Homo dais would be a man as God,
especially I don't know man in God God?
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Man? What's up? Man?
Speaker 3 (15:25):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah? Yeah, I want to pursue that conversation.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
I've came across something very interesting on that very topic,
fake religions, quasi religions, particularly the woke one mail bag
who you gotta write them together as they used to say,
drop us note mailbag at Armstrong and Getty dot com.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Guys, you nailed it. You totally called it.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
Like yesterday, you said Gates would be fired and replaced
by a hot chick. It wasn't months, it was mere hours.
That's right, Pambondie, former Age of Florida, holy cow, not
only a great lawyer, but an agg.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Gilf an age.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
I would love to friend tell you what I would
give her, a corpus, a rid of habeas all night long.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
I hadn't sentence you to ecstasy. WHOA, Okay, you're not
done yet.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
I didn't realize the prediction had included replacing him with
a hot ship.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
But yeah, yes, of course you're talking Trump here. Guys.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
I know the only guy on happy Gates about out.
I'll bet Diddy is like really unhappy. He probably Gates
was probably his only real chance, considering their shared interest.
Sean nice job, Sean and uh oh. The other big topic, dude,
az tech death whistle is the name of my Latin
(16:48):
beat metal death Jethrow Cullover Jethrow tull cover band. Turns
out they sell Aztec death whistles on Amazon.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Really, I wonder how good they are because they can't
just sound like a whistle. They got to sound like
that horrible shrieking sound you played yesterday. Let's see, all right,
well that's not even worth airing. We've got shirts that
say that astet deck whistle at.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Armstrong and getting dot again, among other things.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Some more news of the day on the way, so
stay here, Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (17:25):
The fa has been short air traffic controller for a
long time now. Really they're working overtime and mandatory six
day weeks, and the FAA says it's been scrambling to
hire more controllers. The FAA says the number of flights
will peak on Tuesday, that is when fifty thousand flights
will be handled by controllers nationwide. FAA Chief Mike Whittaker says,
(17:45):
do not be surprised if the FAA slows the pace
of flights. Simply put, that means delays.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
Oh they're going to purpose flee slow the pace of
flights on Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
I'm flying on Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
So did we all decide a couple of years ago
or something that I know I'll beat the system. Getaway
day is Wednesday. I'll fly on Tuesday, so there are
more flights on Tuesday than Wednesday. Now, maybe I should
change my flight to Wednesday.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Maybe it's because of all the delays and cancelations in
recent You just give your fake I want to get
to Granny's house by Thursday.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
So I gotta leave Tuesday. You gotta leave a buffer day. Yeah,
maybe that's it. I didn't know Tuesday was the busiest
traveling day. Wow.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Well, see all in Denver. Well, all hang out at
the airport, sitting over by the outlet.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I'll be the guy sitting by the outlet, a couple
of kids, or Atlanta, Atlanta or Denver.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
We'll all meet in Atlanta or Denver. Wow. Yeah, gosh.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
And that air traffic controller thing is before you even
add the layer of the weather on.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Top of it.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
And that's not like you can't just allow Elea Venezuelans
to come across the border and fill the spots of
air traffic controllers like you can picking grapes or something. Hey,
I say to you, you pilots you use soft, little
pampered pussy cat pilots.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Hey, every day we commute, we drive, we run errands.
We don't have a car controller. Yeah, look out, check yeah,
check your blind spot.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
You have heard of a window? Look out the damn
window and fly The plane fits your.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Turnal land land all right? Moving along?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
You look left, you look right, you look left again,
you do, that's right. A couple of notes from the
world of politics. Uh. First of all, is Sean White,
the big I'm sorry, Dana White, the great wrestling empressario
who endorsed Trump and was there at the convention, and
they had that big event the other night where Trump
got the huge ovation, uh at Medison Square Garden, the
(19:40):
same venue where they once had a Nazi rally, and
then Trump held another Nazi rally and then they had
a Nazi wrestling match.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I guess anyway.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
Uh So the New Yorker asked Dana White, so you
into the politics thing? Now he's going forward, You're gonna
and he said, I'm never effing doing this again. I
want nothing to do with this. S it's gross, it's disgusting.
I want nothing to do with politics.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
You know. I we broadcast from Sacramento, California, the capital
of the biggest state in the country, fifth biggest economy
in the world. So there's a lot of government going on.
And I have known so many people who are kind
of lifetime government people, and I always ask them. I
always ask them the same question. Or reporters who follow
(20:27):
it closely. You know a lot of reporters who get
inside the capitol and do that all the time. Do
you come away like I know what the answer is
going to be? More cynical, less cynical, believing in government?
Oh no, it's ditch. Oh no, yeah, I don't even
you wonder why you even vote. That's the way almost
everybody always answers. Yeah, including people who work for the parties.
Let's take no.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
No, Yeah, the answer is obvious, but the particulars are
often really really interesting.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
God dang it. Yeah, I know, I know.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Uh So, speaking of cynicism and politics and that sort
of thing, I'm gonna I'll skip first of all to
the email from JT and Livermore. He said, as I've predicted,
the left just doesn't get why they lost, and he
includes a link which I'll get to in a moment,
and he like I says like us, says, I couldn't
love it more even if they could accurately discern why
(21:18):
they lost, and they can't. They're structurally and psychologically incapable
of making changes to almost all the reasons they lost.
They've become the party of extremists and extremism trans rights,
for instance, but they are unable to pull back from
their extremism even if it had helped them win going forward.
Then he makes a point that you know, I'd love
to hear your comments, obviously, but Jack and anybody else
frankly at a mail bag at Armstrong Yetty dot com
(21:41):
or text four one five two ninety five KFTC. But
he says, I used to think they cherish Democrat power
over what's good for America. For example, they have no
problems stirring up race hatred in order to win politically,
which is horrifying. But the fact that they can't even
bring themselves to take up positions that more than sixty
percent of their country support on abortion, border security, crime,
(22:02):
experimental surgeries on children, trillion dollar inflation causing green energy
virtue signaling, blah blah blah, makes me think they love
their insanity even more than they love the power.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
I don't. I'm surprised they can't figure this out by
reading the polls or seeing the results of the elections.
Way too many people in the Democratic Party think Twitter's
real life. And I can't believe that they haven't learned
that lesson yet. That the Elizabeth warnkrowd is not the
majority of the Democratic Party.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
It's not the majority of anything.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
It's a tiny slice of America that's really, really loud
and represents a lot.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Of the media.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
But I just can't believe they haven't figured that out,
given the fact that all of us have gone from
living what's the right term, actual reality lives to virtual
reality lives or media lives. Our connections are not the
people geographically next to us. We brush up against it, work,
(23:01):
the guy at the shop, whatever, our personal friends, our
civic organizations. Now it's our favorite Twitter accounts that.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Will we get a handle on the whole bubbling thing?
Will there be a back to reality movement of some
kind of I would still like to form my old
school throwback unplugged society. Maybe we'll buy up a bunch
of land in Nebraska or something like that.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Yeah, and then there's the different issue that's not just politics,
but politics fits in it because of the way we
live our lives now.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
It's our favorite TV show.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
I know someone in particular that I'm concerned about who
clearly thinks the people they interact with on their particular
social media platform are their friends, like they have no
because I know them. They have no real social life
(23:57):
of any kind, like nobody, but they have a fairly
large online presence. How's that going, Well, it seems to
satisfy them. Maybe that you know, if you're satisfied, you're satisfied,
but it ain't real.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
It's interesting to observe well.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
And then back to the main threat of the conversation,
you can find yourself way way way off. Oh what
like everybody believes, including.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
The Democratic Party.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
But the article I referenced, it's The Fabulous Byron York
in the Washington Examiner, and it's about how the recriminations
are heating up after the lost election, and it goes
through the things Democrats are angry about, and they spend
a bit of time on the massive amount of money
Harris spent and where it went.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
And then evidently there's a big flap.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Over the prominent role Harris gave to Liz Cheney, and
as Byron York points out, as if anybody needed him to,
nobody cares what Liz Cheney thinks. Really, I mean, there
aren't that many moveable, swayable Republicans who think, wow, Liz
Cheney has endorsed Kamala Harris with the open borders and
(25:09):
the deficit spending and the inflation and the woke stuff.
But by Gully, if Liz Cheney says that radical lefty
lunatic is good enough, she's good enough for me. I
mean nobody has said that, so I thought that was
I mean, this is what you're arguing about. But then
it gets to the part I really wanted to talk about,
and that is Democrats are becoming angrier and angrier at
(25:37):
the media. All of the coverage bias toward Democrats, all
the celebrations of Harris, how she's great and popular and
the switcher roof from Biden can absolutely run to Biden
must go. And Harris is not crazy, unpopular, she's wonderful.
They didn't notice that all the condemnations of Trump weren't enough.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
They think that.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
The liberal media establishment in New York Times, Washington Post,
the Alphabet Networks, Hollywood music industry, academia. They were too
timid in reporting on Trump's liabilities. And then it gets really,
really crazy. In a new piece in the New Republic,
longtime lefty journalist Michael Tamaski asked why voters could not
see that Trump was so self evidently horrible and Harris
(26:18):
was so good in comparison. The answer is right wing media,
Timaski said. Today the right wing media, Fox News, Newsmax.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
One, American News Network, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
iHeartMedia, bah bah bah, the podcasting world. They set the
news agenda in this country. Wow, all right, who sets
the agenda? No, not the New York Times, Timaski continued,
Not the Washington Post, not the Alphabet Networks. The agenda's
set up by all the outlets I listed. Even the
mighty New York Times follows in its wake. All right,
(26:52):
so you got one lunatic. So what everybody knows that
you got them yelling at fire hydrants in every city
in America these days. But then John Stewart told Vanity
Fair that media outlets on the Democratic side need to
get tough. Quote, the media has to work more as
a symbiotic organism in the way that weaponized media does.
(27:14):
One thing that the right wing media does really well
is work together as a unit.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
He's completely insane. Huh.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
That's interesting that that's the way they see it, because
it looks sure looks like they work together as a unit.
From our side, it looks like they get a memo
on you know, Sunday morning of how to handle every issue.
Everybody says, he uses the same phrases as the same
point of.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
View, the same Yeah, exactly. That's hilarious.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
And John seriously, because I like you, You're a smart guy,
very funny. That is the opposite of what's happening over here.
We disagree with each other vehemently on lots of different stuff,
and we talk about it and we a jaw about it,
and we say things like, well, at least those of
us who are not lunatics who are just to make
money say crazy stuff like wow, you have a point there,
(28:05):
or huh, I'll have to think about that, or I
guess we can give it a try.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
Over here on the right, we do the opposite of
what you're suggesting, Johnny Boy, the opposite the idea that
we've the John Storre saying, the one thing that Democrat
media needs to do is get more organized and work
together more, and then we'll win elections.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Disregard everything else I said. Yeah, yeah,
you're right, that's exactly what needs to happen. Just double
down on that. Now, a word from our friends. It
simply save home security. Oh boy, Yeah, if you're an
NFL football player, you need this. Oh how about that?
They think it's venezuelan gang of some sort ride out
(28:50):
American robber gangs has decided to target high profile athletes.
It started with Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelcey, but now
it's basketball players, football player, soccer players all across the country.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
And of course you and your home. That's right.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
And maybe the Trump administration can put simply safe on
the border. I don't know if that would work. They
would have to customize it obviously, that would be a
big order. But right now they can get sixty percent
off any new system with select professional monitoring plan like
simply say active Guard outdoor protection. It prevents the crime
before it happens. They can see a venezuela and caravan
(29:27):
before it enters the country and speak to them, perhaps
in Spanish, and tell them to get away.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
That's where it works at your health.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
If they see someone lurking around, the agents can talk
to them in real time. No long term contracts, no
cancelation fees. It's only about a dollar a day that
Moosi your bastards.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
Yeah, dollar a day, No, no long term contracts, no
cancelation fees.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
How different is that from your old crappy system. And again,
Simply Safe is offering our friends you early access to
their Black Friday sale this week. You can get sixty
percent off any new system with select professional monitoring plan.
Again simp safe dot com, slash armstrong, simplysafe dot com,
slash armstrong.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
There's no safe like simply Safe.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
I think the surprising thing to all of us on
the story about all the pro athletes is you don't
have a better security system than that. You got a
twenty million dollar home, but you don't have like I
would have a human being there if I had that
kind of money, let alone a security system.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
Well, and a lot of them have beautiful high deff
images of the people breaking into their homes and walking.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Around in there.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Uh right, you really need a better alarm system or something,
or or dogs or again just an assistant.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
Dog.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Hey, an assistant like seventy five grand a year, right,
your only job? You listen, hang out in my house
when I'm not.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
There, exactly, That's what I would do. Anyway, we've got
a Katie's headlines on the way. I hope you can
figure out strong man. I think, based on the news
clip we played a little bit.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Ago, the story of.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
Next week, as it has been the last several holidays,
is going to be traveled. The millions of people stuck
in airports, very angry that they're not going where the
ticket said they were going to go at a fairly
high expense.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
That'll be fun.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
That's before you even get to I mean, so they
don't have enough aircraft controllers or whatever they got, they
don't have enough of those. And they're already announcing that
on Tuesday, the busiest travel day, they're going to slow
down flights. They're going to delay them just to try
to keep from falling behind.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
It's an interesting thing to do.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
We'll fall behind on purpose to keep from falling behind.
That's before Southwest computers go haywire or something like that.
Speaker 4 (31:36):
Also, don't even say it. Oh boy, yeah, yeah. The
airlines that are running computer systems designed in nineteen eighty four,
which is twenty years after the government's computer systems were designed.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Who's going to a floppy disk? We need a floppy disc. Well,
they're using punch cards at the IRS. So yeah, anyway,
more of that to comes. Certainly all sorts of great
stuff to figure out and discuss.

From CNN, Russia's use of a nuclear capable ballistic missile
is the latest escalation in the Ukraine War.

completely crazy. They called the United States said, hey, we're
gonna launch a ballistic missile. It's not a nuke, it's
not headed to Paris. Okay, just let you know, Yeah,
