Speaker 1 (00:01):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Keatty.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
I'm strong, and Jatti and he I'm strong and Getty.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
I was just fired for my job. So I've lost
my job. And I called into the office yesterday and
told me that they could either fire me or I
could put a resignation in and but that would look better.
But they fired me, or they're getting rid of me
(00:44):
because of my because of my TikTok. Somebody screenshotted screenshot
all of a lot of my tiktoks.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
You sound like a genius. Yeah, it'll be a real
loss to the organism. So as will mean as will
become more clear in the clips we're about to play you.
These people were among the quite a few, and nobody
knows how many, but quite a few people who posted
gleeful comments about the brutal murder of a young man,
(01:20):
Charlie Kirk, and they're well they The presence of those
online comments were collected by people who were horrified by
them and provided to those people's employers, many of whom said,
that's horrifying. Good God, I don't want anybody working here?
(01:43):
Who would do that? The question before us in a
minute will be is this the right engaging in quote
unquote cancel culture like the left did. If you said
I think all lives matter or that sort of thing,
my first blush response is yes, your first blush response
(02:08):
is wrong. But we will discuss with an open mind
and heart. If I'm an employer, I'm not getting rid
of someone like that because of their point of view.
I'm getting rid of them because I can't believe you're
so stupid you post something like that with your name attached. Yeah,
(02:31):
anybody that's stupid I don't want working for me. Yeah,
that's what would bother me. Yeah, that's not a bad angle.
So another we've divided this into two cuts. We can
pause after halfway through and discuss. This is Microsoft guy.
He is but bearded, bald of head, and has a
(02:53):
prominent nose ring. Just to get a visual, all right,
White Fellar not a bad looking guy. On Michael forty six, I.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Made some stupid comments about Charlie Kirk and today that
he was shot. I said some things on Blue Sky
and on threads that i I'm sorry, not sorry for,
but I said them, and I deleted them when it
(03:22):
was requested that I do so by my employer. And
then today, on a weekend, on a weekend, I'm told
that I am no longer employed at Microsoft after six
years carrying the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Department from scratch.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Okay, so you built the DEI department from scratch, from scratch.
The fact that it is not a weekend on a weekend,
and six years I've been here a weekend, I've been
fired on a Tuesday. That was bad too, all right? Uh?
Interest that he was repentant, then admitted not the least
(04:05):
but repentant. Right, roll on. I lose my job.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Because one of you, some random person reports my posts
to my employer, goes out of their way.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
To find out where I work, and takes my job,
takes my security away from me for a thought, for
a opinion, and you talk about freedom speech like you
care about it, and you're just gonna take my my money,
my life, my food off my plate because I don't
like Charlie Kirk.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
That's not okay. It is not okay to turget create
some testicles, man.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Because I felt joy that day, I can't help while I.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Feel Oh my god, I felt joy. You're a tiring
human being.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
That's me.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
That's what I believe. All right, that's what I think
of of him. I can't help that. Wow, why can't
help that? I won't want you working for me. I
don't deserve the job, right, Yes, yeah, that's that's right.
Uh so, which brings me to my main argument. Oh
my god, I know what a long day he was.
(05:17):
That's how I feel glee that a young man was
shot in the throat, ripped out over politics, and now
his children will not know their father. Yeah. I don't
want to work next to you. Yeah, you're a sick
f It is not okay, It's just urging me because
I so enjoyed that day.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I can't help I feel.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
What is the weird thought process by anybody who posts
this stuff? Like I hay, I only meant my post
to reach people who agree with me completely, but I
wanted confirmation from my crowd. I didn't think anybody else
would see it. I mean, what is your thinking? So
I'm thinking of a couple of progressive politicians who I
absolutely loathe. I mean I loathe them. They're America haters.
(06:01):
I believe they are intent on spreading a sick totalitarian
ideology in this country as quickly as they can. If
somebody were too shotgun one of them and rip their
guts out. And I was like, yes, unless my soul
was completely dead, what I would be blubbering about is,
(06:24):
oh my god, what if I become not Those are
my feelings. I can't help that. So all right, here's
my argument, and I realize the it's not a weakness exactly,
but it needs backup. The difference between the cancel culture
of the left and these people losing their jobs. And
(06:47):
we've got one more bonus clip for entertainment's sake coming
up in just a moment. Stay with us, same weirdo
dude or different different dude. May that dude look sober minded? Anyway?
Here is the difference. Many many people lost their jobs
(07:10):
for expressing mainstream traditional views that could easily be justified
or explained as long time accepted mainstream views. Now the left,
(07:34):
the far left, the neo Marxists would say, well, that's
because it's a white supremacy society and all of our
you know, the language is all oriented toward backing up
white supremacy, and you're helping oppress people well, those people
are wrong in their maniacs and the revolutionaries, and that's
(07:56):
an argument we'll be having for the rest of our lives.
The idea that I'm gleeful over the murder of a
young man and I'm willing to say so publicly is sick.
It was sick fifty years ago, it was sick twenty
years ago. It will be sick, I pray to God
twenty five years from now. It is vastly different than
(08:17):
saying you know, I'm sorry, I believe there are two
sexes and only two sexes, And people were fired and
hounded out of their jobs for that. Well, the All
Lives Matter one is the best example, since we know
people personally who were fired for saying I think all
lives matter, right, not knowing that that was a alleged
(08:38):
Twitter code, Yeah, a code for I reject the Black
Lives Matter organization and movement. And these people were fired.
Even when it was brought to their attention that that
was some sort of code. You weren't supposed say none,
They'd say, oh, I didn't know that. I just meant
I don't think anybody should be killed by the police, right.
In fact, I was of black lives matter. But that
wasn't good enough. You still got fired. Yeah, and that
(08:59):
is that a different thing because of the relentless pressure
and hate brought on these companies by an organized movement
of the left. As opposed to saying, you know, I'll
Jimmy the Intern, we don't have Jimmy the Intern, but
somebody saying, hey, you know, Jimmy the Intern was online
celebrating this horror and us being oh my god, no,
(09:24):
you can't work here anymore. It's a very different phenomenon.
The result may look really similar, I would argue it
is different. Got this note from DH and San Diego
last week, praised Bernie Sanders for calling out his own
side as a free speech absolutist. I have to call
out my side for the ration of pundits cheering the
(09:45):
firing of teachers, firefighters, and others that said they were
happy Charlie Kirk was shot. Volterra told us even speech
we disagree with must be fought. For firing a brainwashed
lefty is not what Charlie would have wanted. Maybe just
make a fun of them in a short video. I
only argue with you, and I sure appreciate your point
of view DH is that let's see what was the
(10:08):
part today? Oh that free speech is absolutely like one
of my most cherished principles. But you have to take
responsibility for your speech, and I will take responsibility to
let cows come home for saying there are only two sexes.
Now you go ahead with why you were happy a
man got his throat ripped out in public. So I've
(10:31):
got a piece it was written by a lefty about
how blue Sky is awful and how cancel culture worked
until it didn't, and we need to move away from that.
That I thought was really interesting. So we'll probably get
to that later. Rebring up the whole conversation. I don't
know how many of you, if you were looking at
the NFL weekend, had put your money on Travis Kelsey socks. Oh,
(10:55):
but that might have been a good direction to go
with your prize picks the next time. Maybe you can
edge toward I mean, I don't know if there's a
line on does Travis Kelsey suck or not? All the
answers yes, Can suckage be measured objectively? I think so? Anyway,
you need to download the price picks app YEP. It
is fun, it is simple, It is easy. It really

(11:57):
Taylor Swift's husband does not future husband not suck. But
he did let a ball bounce off his chest that
led to the Chiefs losing yesterday in a crucial moment. Absolutely,
I mean in the end zone would have been a
touchdown anyway. There's that, and the touch push is boring.
That's why they need to get rid of it. It's
just boring. Yes, it's just really boring football. And as
(12:19):
a TV show, you gotta make it more exciting. Yeah,
how boring? Play that is agreed? Which happened again yesterday. Heyho,
what are your thoughts on this whole thing? I'm gonna
try to stick with this as long as I can,
as long as as long as both sides go with Yeah,
(12:39):
but the other side did it. They're worse than we are.
Both sides think the other side is worse than we are.
But we'll never get out of this if we do that. Ever,
even if in our case we're right, But what's the
choice to lay down your arms? That's what I don't get. Well,
you have to get both sides. Well, that's the way
laying down your arms works. You have to get both
(13:00):
sides to do it together. Oh that's when I said,
you're like a kid who wants a pony for Christmas.
That's right. You have to have leaders on both sides
say Okay, we're enough of this, We're not doing this anymore. Yeah,
that's not going to happen. Oh my god, do you
have any thoughts on it? Text? Line four one two
nine five KFTC. Okay, we got more What's Wrong with
(13:25):
the World coming up, but first I need a ruling
on whether or not this is okay what I did
last night. So we have new neighbors in our neighborhood,
just moved in this weekend. I live in a cul
de sac and I mentioned the big cul de Sac
barbecue we had a week or so ago where we
all got together. Everybody's lived there for many years and
all know each other. Now I'm new and now I
(13:45):
know them. We got a new one, nice cohesion, love
it house right next to me. So they moved in.
So yesterday my son went to the donut shop a
couple blocks away and happened to get there right at closing,
and they gave him a whole bunch of donuts because
they were super bonus, like you need those. Yes, Anyway,
(14:06):
he had boxes of donuts, so he brought those home
and we had one big box of donuts left. And
so Henry wanted to eat another donut last night, my youngest,
and he'd already had one. I said, no, we don't
want to. I wanted to eat one too. I said,
we got to get these out of here. I said,
I'm going to go give them to the neighbors as
a as a welcome to the neighborhood gift. So I
(14:30):
took the box of donuts over there, knocked on the door,
and a guy comes there, and I said, hey, I'm
your neighbor, Jack and everything like that. Just wanted to
uh introduce myself, and I got you a little you know,
welcome to the neighborhood gift. He said, oh, that's fantastic,
thank you very much. And then as he closed the door,
he said, hey, honey, our neighbor's really nice. He got,
am I nice? That's the question? Am I nice?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
For?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I just didn't want the donuts in my house. I'm
gonna eat them. I gonna eat one, Henry's gonna eat one.
I'm basically getting rid of leftovers. You easily could have
thrown them away and not given to the neighbor. I
think that was a kind gesture. Was he doing that for, really, Katie? Well,
now until that neighbor goes to that same donut shop
(15:16):
near closing and gets a copious amount of donuts and goes,
wait a minute, it is as I think it through,
It is a different thing. Me thinking, oh, we have
a new neighbor. I get in my car, I drive
to the donut shop, I buy with my money about
the donuts, bringing home with the only intention of giving
it to them as a gift. That was the unspoken implication.
(15:37):
That is what I implied. That was the shadow narrative.
That is what I'm playing. I should have been honest.
I should have said, we have leftover donuts when you
like them. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
that's no good. We've touched them all, we've fingered them all.
As we were getting to the one we wanted to
turn them over, left put them back in the box,
flips one of them over. There's a bite out of
one of them one. I think you're safe that kind
(16:00):
I must, Yeah, but it's funny. I walked away from there.
There was something about the fact that he, Hey, honey,
I met the new neighbor. He's really nice. If he
hadn't said that, right, I think got a walk to
Wyscott free the fact that he said that, Because now
she thinks I'm the kind of guy that goes to
the story to buy a gift for my neighbors. Yell
set her straight. Soon enough, she figure out who I am.
(16:23):
You know what I loved the most is he went
with the maneuver one of my very best friends, and
he's made me laugh at least fifty times doing that.
Every time we interact with somebody and the person turns
and walks away, he'll say, great guy, just loud enough
to be heard. Oh exactly, that's pretty good, like every time,
(16:46):
and it always makes me laugh. And maybe that's your neighbor. Hey,
what a great guy just met Clay, Honey. I mean,
he knows what he's doing. Is he trumped your phoniness
with his? As I told the story, I think I
can't get an You can't give me an a for
that because to his duplicitous So I get a get
(17:09):
a solid not very good, not these days, and that's
that's not an old school See they were a great
inflation these days, Katie. But you you thought, oh, we
have a new neighbor. This would be I don't that
I want to get rid of my cast offs. Yes,
used food, Yeah, just give him your leftovers from that on. Yeah,
(17:31):
I played here of half eating mashed potatoes. You want
or just drag your trash can over there saying anything
in here, you want take a look. No, no, you
you get. You get partial credit, partial credit for being
a good neighbor, neighborliness, I give it. The problem is
the problem is he thinks I'm better than I am.
See that's where I feel guilty. Maybe you should be
(17:53):
that person. Wow, maybe I should aspire to be the
pretend the person I'm pretending to be right, be the
person your neighbor's thanks you are, Jack exactly. Put that
on a bumperstaker. This segment brought to you by the
Lutheran Church or somebody or other. It sounds like that
sort of uplifting segment. It really does. Okay, I'll be
interested in what you think of the text line four
one five to nine five k FDC. Trump made a
(18:14):
big announcement about TikTok, Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
Multiple teams and sports fans honoring Charlie Kirk with touching
tributes over the weekend. Organizations across the NFL yesterday honoring Kirk,
including this emotional moment from the New York Jets.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Game Charlie Charlie Cary.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
In total, at least a dozen NFL teams held some
form of tribute to Kirk this week and including this
moment of silence from the Dallas Cowboys in Charlie's home
state of Arizona, the Cardinals holding a moment of silence
as well before their game, as did the Carolina Panthers
ahead of theirs.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
So a dozen NFL teams did something, and lots of
college teams across the country. The Emmys didn't mention it
at all last night. Wow. And as I mentioned, the
first person they had on the Emmys was Stephen Colbert,
who walked out to a standing ovation for being the
(19:17):
guy who stood up to the Trump organization and got
fired for it. So just you know, the the tribalism
we have some that's what's taking us down. People. I
don't know how to break out of it. I don't
know if there's any breaking out of it. Yeah, yeah,
I just I sympathize with your point of view, but
it feels like yelling I'm against bar fights is here
(19:40):
being slugged in the face. So I don't know what
to do about it. Either uh oh coming up, I
forgot or we ran out of time to pay off
my promise that we have one more person who lost
their job for posting Glee over Charlie Kirk's murder. Audio
of their online posts very entertaining coming up. The FBI
(20:03):
is investigating social media posts by at least seven different
accounts that appeared to indicate four knowledge of the assassination
of mister Kirk. According to three people familiar with the
investigation and screenshots obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, the posts,
one of which referenced the date of Kirk's assassination September tenth,
more than a month before it took place, were all
(20:25):
deleted in the days following the killing several of the accounts.
That's interesting, several of the accounts appear to belong to
transgender individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect
Tyler Robinson's roommate with whom Robinson was allegedly in a
relationship on TikTok, so this is not just anonymous Internet geeks.
(20:47):
The FBI has received archive copies of the posts, according
to a person who flagg him for the agency's screenshots
have been circulating but had not previously been authenticated. While
the posts do not establish that any of the individuals
new or conspired with Robinson, the twenty two year old
gunman who allegedly shot Kirk. Several of them mentioned the
conservative activists by name fantasized about his death. It'd be
(21:09):
funny if someone like Charlie Kirk got shot on September tenth.
LMAO posted one on September the third. Now, if that's real,
that's impossible to explain. Yeah, the absolute authentication of them,
I'm reading rereading the way they phrased it. The fact
(21:31):
that the FBI is investigating them, I believe to be
absolutely substantiate. Whether they turn out to be one hundred
percent legit or not irrelevant is open a question, although
there's an indication here that yeah, these are legitimate screenshots
of accounts. Well, and I'll hit you with a couple
(21:53):
more good but go ahead. Charlie Kirk was on Bill
Maher's Basement show four months ago and where they sat
there talked for like an hour and a half, just
Bill Maher and Charlie Kirk. Really good conversation. I mean,
the exact sort of thing you want to be able
to have two smart guys having a civil conversation about
(22:14):
lots of issues that couldn't disagree more, but just you know,
yucking it up and will agree to disagree, you know,
that sort of tone, but both It started with both
of them talking about how they have to have security
and for saying what they say, which is obviously horrifying
in retrospect. But my point is there are a lot
(22:37):
of people Charlie Kirk. There's lots of tape out there,
Charlie Kirk talking about all the people that want to
kill him. So to be able to find posts where
people wanted him dead is not surprising, you know. Naming
the particular day obviously is something. Another account posted on
August sixth, more than a month before the shooting, that
(22:58):
September tenth will be of very interesting day after kirk assassination.
The account followed up I plead the fifth The morbid
quip was reposted by an account named gobbledyuk, who appears
to follow Robinson's roommate on TikTok. Well, this is a
pretty easy one. Those posts are either real and this
is huge, or they're not real. But there's no way
(23:22):
they're real and it's not huge, correct, Yeah, I mean,
because if they're real, well, there was a conspiracy with
multiple people involved. Minutes is this the same account? And
then you've got to add in what we were talking
about earlier, the fact that somebody asks a transgender question
he gets shot in the neck. I mean that seems
(23:42):
less like a coincidence if these posts are out to
be real, right, these screen names are so funky? Yeah,
all right, So the morbid quip was reposted. Oh, the
quip about September tenth will be a very interesting day
was reposted by an account named churbum blah blah blah,
(24:04):
who follows Robinson's roommate. All right, scrolling down now. Minutes
after Kirk was pronounced dead, Churubum posted on x we
efing did It, commenting on a post that Charlie Kirk
has died at age thirty one. So somebody reposted September
(24:25):
tenth is going to be a really interesting day, then
tweeted we efing did It. Severally accounts under investigation and
appeared to be associated with LGBT subcultures. Have you seen
any media coverage? Have they talked to the person who
made who asked the trans question? Surely I have. I'm
(24:48):
not aware of that. They have to have talked to
him the media or somebody, Yes, you would think, because
that person would almost have to be in on it,
if you know all of this comes together. They ask
a question. They were the first question they got up
front so they could yell at question. Surely that person's
(25:10):
been spoken to already. Another user who tweeted Charlie Kirk,
who's coming to my college tomorrow? I really hope someone
evaporates him literally. Then in a separate post, let's just
say something big will happen tomorrow. They identify as non
binary on x man. Even if, even if you had
(25:30):
nothing to do with an assassination plot, and all you're
doing is somebody I don't like politically is coming to
my town, I sure hope somebody kills them. What is
wrong with you people? And finally, in a video posted
on TikTok the night before the shooting, an individual appears
to be transgender wrote that Charles James Kirk does not
know what's coming tomorrow. Be ready. This isn't a threat,
(25:53):
it's a promise. Well, these are either not real or
this is a giant, dang story that we'll be talking
about a lot as soon as it's nailed down final out.
The investigation of the post comes as the FBI is
already examining whether pro gender groups knew about Robinson's plan
in advance. That probe, first reported by The New York Post,
includes Armed Queers SLCA, whose logo features high caliber rifle bullets. Wow, okay,
(26:24):
the investigation is ongoing. We will bring you details as
they become clear. That is uh, maybe I need to
just focus on this base line of we need to
get the word out to everyone, all sides. And if
you're listening right now, and you would be happy if
(26:46):
somebody on the left got gunned down, you're wrong. You
are wrong. You couldn't be more wrong. That's the end
of the country if we start embracing that right, because
what will end it either we slaughter enough of theirs
that they're silenced. Please you want to do that, we're
not friends, or at some point somebody decides, hey, all
(27:09):
this blood landing has got to end. We've got to
have a truce. Well, why don't we just have the
truth now? Right anyway, But if you have to explain
that to somebody, their soul might be too dead. I
don't know. Work from our friends at trust and will

to the FBI story, this delusional, stupid Now as life
is overkid was absolutely super plugged into the on very online, young,
(28:43):
radical mouthy and anonymity of the keyboard and the screen lifestyle.
It is absolutely possible that he and a bunch of
other half wits actually decided something ought to be done,
and this I volunteered to be the trigger man wouldn't
be shocking at all. Maybe you've heard this story already.
(29:05):
He's too smart for his own good, as is often
the case with these people, is really tested, really really
really high, very smart guy, a lot of brain power,
which often gets you in trouble. Yeah. I saw one
video that his family posted online about him reading a
scholarship letter and a Twitter account that's very reasonable and
(29:25):
smart and nonpartisan. The guy behind it said, it's anybody
else getting neuro divergent vibes from this meaning autism spectrum,
that sort of thing. And the answer is yes. I
think we just would have called him a misfit back
(29:46):
in the day. But yeah, yeah, a trouble didn't quite
fit in society. Guy found unequivocal support online in a
certain community and it led him down a path he
never should have gone down. I mean, that's that's not
exactly a new story. No, you got another fun clip
(30:08):
for us from somebody who got canceled. Nothing more fun
than somebody getting there. I wouldn't use the term canceled.
They lost the job for expressing something horrific online. It's
a subtle difference, but a significant one. This guy is
either wearing a short skirt or short shorts. It's difficult
to tell from the video, but it's a clip forty
eight Michael. Let's just call him angry skirt guy doing
(30:31):
it here or we when we come back. I was teasing,
we'll do it when we come back here here here
it comes in a minute. Elon bought a billion dollars
worth of Tesla stock. Tesla is soaring on that news.
We can look into that. I'm all other things on
the way. If you liked the NFL, you wanted something different.
It looks like the rain of the Kansas City Chiefs
(30:53):
is over. After getting all the lucky breaks last year,
the lucky breaks have gone away, and they have started
h and two and last place in a tough division.
So huh parody they call it. Every team starts this
season with a chance to win it all and a
mighty often fall. Although the Eagles look pretty good. Anyway,
we were talking earlier this hour, fascinating discussion if you
(31:16):
missed a grab podcast Armstrong and gettyon demand about people
losing their jobs because their employers become aware that they
posted glee over the murder Charlie Cook online And is
that cancel culture? Is that something different? And I'm sure
we'll continue talking about that. And speaking of which, Governor
Cox of Utah made another great little speech on Meet
(31:36):
the Press yesterday. We'll play some of that next hour.
But I promised you a super bonus person who lost
their job just for the entertainment value, ladies and gentlemen.
A man in a skirt, it's angry skirt. Guy fired
for my job.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
I was just fired for my job.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
I was aspired for my job. I was fired job.
I was just fired. I have nothing but this. I
have nothing but I have nothing anymore, nothing have nothing more,
nothing any more. Ge Jim calm down. Who wouldn't want
(32:23):
you in their workplace? Hard to believe they had a
job right and and managed to keep there. I'm completely
badass nuts nature from from the air. Employe, What was
your job? Throwing a fit like a toddler? Was that
your job? You can get paid for that, yes, Katie.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
What Also, what is the mindset of filming these meltdowns
and psting them.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
For it's its tone, it's its own sickness that we've got,
and that definitely is a thing of the left. The
I need to freak out emotionally on camera and post
for it to be real or have significance. It's it's
a weird, weird thing. I hope that's a phase we're
(33:07):
going to grow out of. God, right, It's it's all interconnected,
the whole underdogma thing, the whole if I'm a victim,
I am elevated attitude that's mostly of the left, but
not entirely. There's definitely a whiny streak on the right
two at times. But yeah, it's it's all related in
ways that I can't quite map, yes, Katie. Also, by
(33:29):
the way, the guy in that video is wearing shorts
shorter than any pair that I own. Oh okay, so it
wasn't Yeah yeah, real cute little booty shorts.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
Now.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
I don't know if this is a political left or
right or age thing or what, but like, if I'm
about to get emotional, most people I know they're about
to get emotional, you like, you know, you want to
go to into another room, right, you know, and keep
it to yourself until you can compose yourself let alone.
Let me get my phone out so I can get
(34:00):
this and then post it for everyone to see, for friends, family, strangers,
people will never meet on the other side of the globe.
Everyone must see me. Well it's not hinged. Yeah, yeah.
Part of it is cultural, you know. Part of it's
hard times, tough people. Tough people aren't good times soft people,
(34:24):
blah blah blah. Yeah, and part of that is part
of it that a lot of the emotional stuff you
would consider private. And then part of it is you
want to be tough, you want to be I can
handle this situation. I'm still I've got I've got my faculties.
I can still you know, be a dad, be a worker,
be the things I've got to be. I'm gonna keep
(34:44):
it together here as opposed to a minute, and then
we'll get on with this. As opposed to I want
to go to the other direction and show you just
how devastated I am by whatever the latest thing is.
What were you before? I want to know what that
person who was employed doing? Yeah, wow, I have nothing
(35:09):
but this website that I'm sure six people enjoy. Oh
my wow. Yeah, humankind cannot endure the Internet and social media.
That might be the bottom line is that we just
(35:31):
are not going to be able to adjust to this.
We're not designed to be able to know the thoughts
of everybody in the village. And then just because of
the way social media works. And you'll hear from this
from the Utah governor next hour when we play it,
he's talking about the algorithm. So it's not even just
hearing what the person on the other side of the
(35:51):
village has to say. It's that it gets amplified over
all other voices. So you don't hear what you're the
two hots next to you say, which is completely normal
and within the mainstream, or the fifty huts next to
you that are all normal in mainstream. You only hear
the craziest ones. Right, Hey, yeah, we just it may
not work. This may not work. Do you believe in
(36:16):
an almighty God, all seeing God? I can just picture
the fruit he was thinking, All right, let's see the
Old Testament's written thousands of years ago. People have no
idea what the internet is or social media I'll just
all have to come up with a great metaphor. It's
a I'll call it the fruit of the tree and knowledge.
I'm actually talking about social media, but it'll be a
(36:38):
few thousand years. We'll see what they can do. He
just picturing the silicon chip, the computer, the social media.
Do we the thing we cannot handle? Do we know
what that nut job posted just glee about Kirk dying. Uh,
don't know the specifics. No, the one fellow is fairly
specific that he said he felt joy and posted that
(37:00):
employer did not hear that, granting, screaming toddler fit person.
Your employer did not hear that? And think, well, there's
an employee I need to hang on to.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
We made a.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
Mistake firing old Jim. Call him back, see if he'll
come back with us. Oh my god, Armstrong and Geeddy
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Keatty.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
I'm strong, and Jatti and he I'm strong and Getty.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
I was just fired for my job. So I've lost
my job. And I called into the office yesterday and
told me that they could either fire me or I
could put a resignation in and but that would look better.
But they fired me, or they're getting rid of me
(00:44):
because of my because of my TikTok. Somebody screenshotted screenshot
all of a lot of my tiktoks.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
You sound like a genius. Yeah, it'll be a real
loss to the organism. So as will mean as will
become more clear in the clips we're about to play you.
These people were among the quite a few, and nobody
knows how many, but quite a few people who posted
gleeful comments about the brutal murder of a young man,
(01:20):
Charlie Kirk, and they're well they The presence of those
online comments were collected by people who were horrified by
them and provided to those people's employers, many of whom said,
that's horrifying. Good God, I don't want anybody working here?
(01:43):
Who would do that? The question before us in a
minute will be is this the right engaging in quote
unquote cancel culture like the left did. If you said
I think all lives matter or that sort of thing,
my first blush response is yes, your first blush response
(02:08):
is wrong. But we will discuss with an open mind
and heart. If I'm an employer, I'm not getting rid
of someone like that because of their point of view.
I'm getting rid of them because I can't believe you're
so stupid you post something like that with your name attached. Yeah,
(02:31):
anybody that's stupid I don't want working for me. Yeah,
that's what would bother me. Yeah, that's not a bad angle.
So another we've divided this into two cuts. We can
pause after halfway through and discuss. This is Microsoft guy.
He is but bearded, bald of head, and has a
(02:53):
prominent nose ring. Just to get a visual, all right,
White Fellar not a bad looking guy. On Michael forty six, I.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Made some stupid comments about Charlie Kirk and today that
he was shot. I said some things on Blue Sky
and on threads that i I'm sorry, not sorry for,
but I said them, and I deleted them when it
(03:22):
was requested that I do so by my employer. And
then today, on a weekend, on a weekend, I'm told
that I am no longer employed at Microsoft after six
years carrying the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Department from scratch.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Okay, so you built the DEI department from scratch, from scratch.
The fact that it is not a weekend on a weekend,
and six years I've been here a weekend, I've been
fired on a Tuesday. That was bad too, all right? Uh?
Interest that he was repentant, then admitted not the least
(04:05):
but repentant. Right, roll on. I lose my job.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Because one of you, some random person reports my posts
to my employer, goes out of their way.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
To find out where I work, and takes my job,
takes my security away from me for a thought, for
a opinion, and you talk about freedom speech like you
care about it, and you're just gonna take my my money,
my life, my food off my plate because I don't
like Charlie Kirk.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
That's not okay. It is not okay to turget create
some testicles, man.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Because I felt joy that day, I can't help while I.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Feel Oh my god, I felt joy. You're a tiring
human being.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
That's me.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
That's what I believe. All right, that's what I think
of of him. I can't help that. Wow, why can't
help that? I won't want you working for me. I
don't deserve the job, right, Yes, yeah, that's that's right.
Uh so, which brings me to my main argument. Oh
my god, I know what a long day he was.
(05:17):
That's how I feel glee that a young man was
shot in the throat, ripped out over politics, and now
his children will not know their father. Yeah. I don't
want to work next to you. Yeah, you're a sick
f It is not okay, It's just urging me because
I so enjoyed that day.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I can't help I feel.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
What is the weird thought process by anybody who posts
this stuff? Like I hay, I only meant my post
to reach people who agree with me completely, but I
wanted confirmation from my crowd. I didn't think anybody else
would see it. I mean, what is your thinking? So
I'm thinking of a couple of progressive politicians who I
absolutely loathe. I mean I loathe them. They're America haters.
(06:01):
I believe they are intent on spreading a sick totalitarian
ideology in this country as quickly as they can. If
somebody were too shotgun one of them and rip their
guts out. And I was like, yes, unless my soul
was completely dead, what I would be blubbering about is,
(06:24):
oh my god, what if I become not Those are
my feelings. I can't help that. So all right, here's
my argument, and I realize the it's not a weakness exactly,
but it needs backup. The difference between the cancel culture
of the left and these people losing their jobs. And
(06:47):
we've got one more bonus clip for entertainment's sake coming
up in just a moment. Stay with us, same weirdo
dude or different different dude. May that dude look sober minded? Anyway?
Here is the difference. Many many people lost their jobs
(07:10):
for expressing mainstream traditional views that could easily be justified
or explained as long time accepted mainstream views. Now the left,
(07:34):
the far left, the neo Marxists would say, well, that's
because it's a white supremacy society and all of our
you know, the language is all oriented toward backing up
white supremacy, and you're helping oppress people well, those people
are wrong in their maniacs and the revolutionaries, and that's
(07:56):
an argument we'll be having for the rest of our lives.
The idea that I'm gleeful over the murder of a
young man and I'm willing to say so publicly is sick.
It was sick fifty years ago, it was sick twenty
years ago. It will be sick, I pray to God
twenty five years from now. It is vastly different than
(08:17):
saying you know, I'm sorry, I believe there are two
sexes and only two sexes, And people were fired and
hounded out of their jobs for that. Well, the All
Lives Matter one is the best example, since we know
people personally who were fired for saying I think all
lives matter, right, not knowing that that was a alleged
(08:38):
Twitter code, Yeah, a code for I reject the Black
Lives Matter organization and movement. And these people were fired.
Even when it was brought to their attention that that
was some sort of code. You weren't supposed say none,
They'd say, oh, I didn't know that. I just meant
I don't think anybody should be killed by the police, right.
In fact, I was of black lives matter. But that
wasn't good enough. You still got fired. Yeah, and that
(08:59):
is that a different thing because of the relentless pressure
and hate brought on these companies by an organized movement
of the left. As opposed to saying, you know, I'll
Jimmy the Intern, we don't have Jimmy the Intern, but
somebody saying, hey, you know, Jimmy the Intern was online
celebrating this horror and us being oh my god, no,
(09:24):
you can't work here anymore. It's a very different phenomenon.
The result may look really similar, I would argue it
is different. Got this note from DH and San Diego
last week, praised Bernie Sanders for calling out his own
side as a free speech absolutist. I have to call
out my side for the ration of pundits cheering the
(09:45):
firing of teachers, firefighters, and others that said they were
happy Charlie Kirk was shot. Volterra told us even speech
we disagree with must be fought. For firing a brainwashed
lefty is not what Charlie would have wanted. Maybe just
make a fun of them in a short video. I
only argue with you, and I sure appreciate your point
of view DH is that let's see what was the
(10:08):
part today? Oh that free speech is absolutely like one
of my most cherished principles. But you have to take
responsibility for your speech, and I will take responsibility to
let cows come home for saying there are only two sexes.
Now you go ahead with why you were happy a
man got his throat ripped out in public. So I've
(10:31):
got a piece it was written by a lefty about
how blue Sky is awful and how cancel culture worked
until it didn't, and we need to move away from that.
That I thought was really interesting. So we'll probably get
to that later. Rebring up the whole conversation. I don't
know how many of you, if you were looking at
the NFL weekend, had put your money on Travis Kelsey socks. Oh,
(10:55):
but that might have been a good direction to go
with your prize picks the next time. Maybe you can
edge toward I mean, I don't know if there's a
line on does Travis Kelsey suck or not? All the
answers yes, Can suckage be measured objectively? I think so? Anyway,
you need to download the price picks app YEP. It
is fun, it is simple, It is easy. It really

(11:57):
Taylor Swift's husband does not future husband not suck. But
he did let a ball bounce off his chest that
led to the Chiefs losing yesterday in a crucial moment. Absolutely,
I mean in the end zone would have been a
touchdown anyway. There's that, and the touch push is boring.
That's why they need to get rid of it. It's
just boring. Yes, it's just really boring football. And as
(12:19):
a TV show, you gotta make it more exciting. Yeah,
how boring? Play that is agreed? Which happened again yesterday. Heyho,
what are your thoughts on this whole thing? I'm gonna
try to stick with this as long as I can,
as long as as long as both sides go with Yeah,
(12:39):
but the other side did it. They're worse than we are.
Both sides think the other side is worse than we are.
But we'll never get out of this if we do that. Ever,
even if in our case we're right, But what's the
choice to lay down your arms? That's what I don't get. Well,
you have to get both sides. Well, that's the way
laying down your arms works. You have to get both
(13:00):
sides to do it together. Oh that's when I said,
you're like a kid who wants a pony for Christmas.
That's right. You have to have leaders on both sides
say Okay, we're enough of this, We're not doing this anymore. Yeah,
that's not going to happen. Oh my god, do you
have any thoughts on it? Text? Line four one two
nine five KFTC. Okay, we got more What's Wrong with
(13:25):
the World coming up, but first I need a ruling
on whether or not this is okay what I did
last night. So we have new neighbors in our neighborhood,
just moved in this weekend. I live in a cul
de sac and I mentioned the big cul de Sac
barbecue we had a week or so ago where we
all got together. Everybody's lived there for many years and
all know each other. Now I'm new and now I
(13:45):
know them. We got a new one, nice cohesion, love
it house right next to me. So they moved in.
So yesterday my son went to the donut shop a
couple blocks away and happened to get there right at closing,
and they gave him a whole bunch of donuts because
they were super bonus, like you need those. Yes, Anyway,
(14:06):
he had boxes of donuts, so he brought those home
and we had one big box of donuts left. And
so Henry wanted to eat another donut last night, my youngest,
and he'd already had one. I said, no, we don't
want to. I wanted to eat one too. I said,
we got to get these out of here. I said,
I'm going to go give them to the neighbors as
a as a welcome to the neighborhood gift. So I
(14:30):
took the box of donuts over there, knocked on the door,
and a guy comes there, and I said, hey, I'm
your neighbor, Jack and everything like that. Just wanted to
uh introduce myself, and I got you a little you know,
welcome to the neighborhood gift. He said, oh, that's fantastic,
thank you very much. And then as he closed the door,
he said, hey, honey, our neighbor's really nice. He got,
am I nice? That's the question? Am I nice?
Speaker 4 (14:55):
For?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I just didn't want the donuts in my house. I'm
gonna eat them. I gonna eat one, Henry's gonna eat one.
I'm basically getting rid of leftovers. You easily could have
thrown them away and not given to the neighbor. I
think that was a kind gesture. Was he doing that for, really, Katie? Well,
now until that neighbor goes to that same donut shop
(15:16):
near closing and gets a copious amount of donuts and goes,
wait a minute, it is as I think it through,
It is a different thing. Me thinking, oh, we have
a new neighbor. I get in my car, I drive
to the donut shop, I buy with my money about
the donuts, bringing home with the only intention of giving
it to them as a gift. That was the unspoken implication.
(15:37):
That is what I implied. That was the shadow narrative.
That is what I'm playing. I should have been honest.
I should have said, we have leftover donuts when you
like them. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
that's no good. We've touched them all, we've fingered them all.
As we were getting to the one we wanted to
turn them over, left put them back in the box,
flips one of them over. There's a bite out of
one of them one. I think you're safe that kind
(16:00):
I must, Yeah, but it's funny. I walked away from there.
There was something about the fact that he, Hey, honey,
I met the new neighbor. He's really nice. If he
hadn't said that, right, I think got a walk to
Wyscott free the fact that he said that, Because now
she thinks I'm the kind of guy that goes to
the story to buy a gift for my neighbors. Yell
set her straight. Soon enough, she figure out who I am.
(16:23):
You know what I loved the most is he went
with the maneuver one of my very best friends, and
he's made me laugh at least fifty times doing that.
Every time we interact with somebody and the person turns
and walks away, he'll say, great guy, just loud enough
to be heard. Oh exactly, that's pretty good, like every time,
(16:46):
and it always makes me laugh. And maybe that's your neighbor. Hey,
what a great guy just met Clay, Honey. I mean,
he knows what he's doing. Is he trumped your phoniness
with his? As I told the story, I think I
can't get an You can't give me an a for
that because to his duplicitous So I get a get
(17:09):
a solid not very good, not these days, and that's
that's not an old school See they were a great
inflation these days, Katie. But you you thought, oh, we
have a new neighbor. This would be I don't that
I want to get rid of my cast offs. Yes,
used food, Yeah, just give him your leftovers from that on. Yeah,
(17:31):
I played here of half eating mashed potatoes. You want
or just drag your trash can over there saying anything
in here, you want take a look. No, no, you
you get. You get partial credit, partial credit for being
a good neighbor, neighborliness, I give it. The problem is
the problem is he thinks I'm better than I am.
See that's where I feel guilty. Maybe you should be
(17:53):
that person. Wow, maybe I should aspire to be the
pretend the person I'm pretending to be right, be the
person your neighbor's thanks you are, Jack exactly. Put that
on a bumperstaker. This segment brought to you by the
Lutheran Church or somebody or other. It sounds like that
sort of uplifting segment. It really does. Okay, I'll be
interested in what you think of the text line four
one five to nine five k FDC. Trump made a
(18:14):
big announcement about TikTok, Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
Multiple teams and sports fans honoring Charlie Kirk with touching
tributes over the weekend. Organizations across the NFL yesterday honoring Kirk,
including this emotional moment from the New York Jets.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Game Charlie Charlie Cary.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
In total, at least a dozen NFL teams held some
form of tribute to Kirk this week and including this
moment of silence from the Dallas Cowboys in Charlie's home
state of Arizona, the Cardinals holding a moment of silence
as well before their game, as did the Carolina Panthers
ahead of theirs.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
So a dozen NFL teams did something, and lots of
college teams across the country. The Emmys didn't mention it
at all last night. Wow. And as I mentioned, the
first person they had on the Emmys was Stephen Colbert,
who walked out to a standing ovation for being the
(19:17):
guy who stood up to the Trump organization and got
fired for it. So just you know, the the tribalism
we have some that's what's taking us down. People. I
don't know how to break out of it. I don't
know if there's any breaking out of it. Yeah, yeah,
I just I sympathize with your point of view, but
it feels like yelling I'm against bar fights is here
(19:40):
being slugged in the face. So I don't know what
to do about it. Either uh oh coming up, I
forgot or we ran out of time to pay off
my promise that we have one more person who lost
their job for posting Glee over Charlie Kirk's murder. Audio
of their online posts very entertaining coming up. The FBI
(20:03):
is investigating social media posts by at least seven different
accounts that appeared to indicate four knowledge of the assassination
of mister Kirk. According to three people familiar with the
investigation and screenshots obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, the posts,
one of which referenced the date of Kirk's assassination September tenth,
more than a month before it took place, were all
(20:25):
deleted in the days following the killing several of the accounts.
That's interesting, several of the accounts appear to belong to
transgender individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect
Tyler Robinson's roommate with whom Robinson was allegedly in a
relationship on TikTok, so this is not just anonymous Internet geeks.
(20:47):
The FBI has received archive copies of the posts, according
to a person who flagg him for the agency's screenshots
have been circulating but had not previously been authenticated. While
the posts do not establish that any of the individuals
new or conspired with Robinson, the twenty two year old
gunman who allegedly shot Kirk. Several of them mentioned the
conservative activists by name fantasized about his death. It'd be
(21:09):
funny if someone like Charlie Kirk got shot on September tenth.
LMAO posted one on September the third. Now, if that's real,
that's impossible to explain. Yeah, the absolute authentication of them,
I'm reading rereading the way they phrased it. The fact
(21:31):
that the FBI is investigating them, I believe to be
absolutely substantiate. Whether they turn out to be one hundred
percent legit or not irrelevant is open a question, although
there's an indication here that yeah, these are legitimate screenshots
of accounts. Well, and I'll hit you with a couple
(21:53):
more good but go ahead. Charlie Kirk was on Bill
Maher's Basement show four months ago and where they sat
there talked for like an hour and a half, just
Bill Maher and Charlie Kirk. Really good conversation. I mean,
the exact sort of thing you want to be able
to have two smart guys having a civil conversation about
(22:14):
lots of issues that couldn't disagree more, but just you know,
yucking it up and will agree to disagree, you know,
that sort of tone, but both It started with both
of them talking about how they have to have security
and for saying what they say, which is obviously horrifying
in retrospect. But my point is there are a lot
(22:37):
of people Charlie Kirk. There's lots of tape out there,
Charlie Kirk talking about all the people that want to
kill him. So to be able to find posts where
people wanted him dead is not surprising, you know. Naming
the particular day obviously is something. Another account posted on
August sixth, more than a month before the shooting, that
(22:58):
September tenth will be of very interesting day after kirk assassination.
The account followed up I plead the fifth The morbid
quip was reposted by an account named gobbledyuk, who appears
to follow Robinson's roommate on TikTok. Well, this is a
pretty easy one. Those posts are either real and this
is huge, or they're not real. But there's no way
(23:22):
they're real and it's not huge, correct, Yeah, I mean,
because if they're real, well, there was a conspiracy with
multiple people involved. Minutes is this the same account? And
then you've got to add in what we were talking
about earlier, the fact that somebody asks a transgender question
he gets shot in the neck. I mean that seems
(23:42):
less like a coincidence if these posts are out to
be real, right, these screen names are so funky? Yeah,
all right, So the morbid quip was reposted. Oh, the
quip about September tenth will be a very interesting day
was reposted by an account named churbum blah blah blah,
(24:04):
who follows Robinson's roommate. All right, scrolling down now. Minutes
after Kirk was pronounced dead, Churubum posted on x we
efing did It, commenting on a post that Charlie Kirk
has died at age thirty one. So somebody reposted September
(24:25):
tenth is going to be a really interesting day, then
tweeted we efing did It. Severally accounts under investigation and
appeared to be associated with LGBT subcultures. Have you seen
any media coverage? Have they talked to the person who
made who asked the trans question? Surely I have. I'm
(24:48):
not aware of that. They have to have talked to
him the media or somebody, Yes, you would think, because
that person would almost have to be in on it,
if you know all of this comes together. They ask
a question. They were the first question they got up
front so they could yell at question. Surely that person's
(25:10):
been spoken to already. Another user who tweeted Charlie Kirk,
who's coming to my college tomorrow? I really hope someone
evaporates him literally. Then in a separate post, let's just
say something big will happen tomorrow. They identify as non
binary on x man. Even if, even if you had
(25:30):
nothing to do with an assassination plot, and all you're
doing is somebody I don't like politically is coming to
my town, I sure hope somebody kills them. What is
wrong with you people? And finally, in a video posted
on TikTok the night before the shooting, an individual appears
to be transgender wrote that Charles James Kirk does not
know what's coming tomorrow. Be ready. This isn't a threat,
(25:53):
it's a promise. Well, these are either not real or
this is a giant, dang story that we'll be talking
about a lot as soon as it's nailed down final out.
The investigation of the post comes as the FBI is
already examining whether pro gender groups knew about Robinson's plan
in advance. That probe, first reported by The New York Post,
includes Armed Queers SLCA, whose logo features high caliber rifle bullets. Wow, okay,
(26:24):
the investigation is ongoing. We will bring you details as
they become clear. That is uh, maybe I need to
just focus on this base line of we need to
get the word out to everyone, all sides. And if
you're listening right now, and you would be happy if
(26:46):
somebody on the left got gunned down, you're wrong. You
are wrong. You couldn't be more wrong. That's the end
of the country if we start embracing that right, because
what will end it either we slaughter enough of theirs
that they're silenced. Please you want to do that, we're
not friends, or at some point somebody decides, hey, all
(27:09):
this blood landing has got to end. We've got to
have a truce. Well, why don't we just have the
truth now? Right anyway, But if you have to explain
that to somebody, their soul might be too dead. I
don't know. Work from our friends at trust and will

to the FBI story, this delusional, stupid Now as life
is overkid was absolutely super plugged into the on very online, young,
(28:43):
radical mouthy and anonymity of the keyboard and the screen lifestyle.
It is absolutely possible that he and a bunch of
other half wits actually decided something ought to be done,
and this I volunteered to be the trigger man wouldn't
be shocking at all. Maybe you've heard this story already.
(29:05):
He's too smart for his own good, as is often
the case with these people, is really tested, really really
really high, very smart guy, a lot of brain power,
which often gets you in trouble. Yeah. I saw one
video that his family posted online about him reading a
scholarship letter and a Twitter account that's very reasonable and
(29:25):
smart and nonpartisan. The guy behind it said, it's anybody
else getting neuro divergent vibes from this meaning autism spectrum,
that sort of thing. And the answer is yes. I
think we just would have called him a misfit back
(29:46):
in the day. But yeah, yeah, a trouble didn't quite
fit in society. Guy found unequivocal support online in a
certain community and it led him down a path he
never should have gone down. I mean, that's that's not
exactly a new story. No, you got another fun clip
(30:08):
for us from somebody who got canceled. Nothing more fun
than somebody getting there. I wouldn't use the term canceled.
They lost the job for expressing something horrific online. It's
a subtle difference, but a significant one. This guy is
either wearing a short skirt or short shorts. It's difficult
to tell from the video, but it's a clip forty
eight Michael. Let's just call him angry skirt guy doing
(30:31):
it here or we when we come back. I was teasing,
we'll do it when we come back here here here
it comes in a minute. Elon bought a billion dollars
worth of Tesla stock. Tesla is soaring on that news.
We can look into that. I'm all other things on
the way. If you liked the NFL, you wanted something different.
It looks like the rain of the Kansas City Chiefs
(30:53):
is over. After getting all the lucky breaks last year,
the lucky breaks have gone away, and they have started
h and two and last place in a tough division.
So huh parody they call it. Every team starts this
season with a chance to win it all and a
mighty often fall. Although the Eagles look pretty good. Anyway,
we were talking earlier this hour, fascinating discussion if you
(31:16):
missed a grab podcast Armstrong and gettyon demand about people
losing their jobs because their employers become aware that they
posted glee over the murder Charlie Cook online And is
that cancel culture? Is that something different? And I'm sure
we'll continue talking about that. And speaking of which, Governor
Cox of Utah made another great little speech on Meet
(31:36):
the Press yesterday. We'll play some of that next hour.
But I promised you a super bonus person who lost
their job just for the entertainment value, ladies and gentlemen.
A man in a skirt, it's angry skirt. Guy fired
for my job.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
I was just fired for my job.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
I was aspired for my job. I was fired job.
I was just fired. I have nothing but this. I
have nothing but I have nothing anymore, nothing have nothing more,
nothing any more. Ge Jim calm down. Who wouldn't want
(32:23):
you in their workplace? Hard to believe they had a
job right and and managed to keep there. I'm completely
badass nuts nature from from the air. Employe, What was
your job? Throwing a fit like a toddler? Was that
your job? You can get paid for that, yes, Katie.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
What Also, what is the mindset of filming these meltdowns
and psting them.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
For it's its tone, it's its own sickness that we've got,
and that definitely is a thing of the left. The
I need to freak out emotionally on camera and post
for it to be real or have significance. It's it's
a weird, weird thing. I hope that's a phase we're
(33:07):
going to grow out of. God, right, It's it's all interconnected,
the whole underdogma thing, the whole if I'm a victim,
I am elevated attitude that's mostly of the left, but
not entirely. There's definitely a whiny streak on the right
two at times. But yeah, it's it's all related in
ways that I can't quite map, yes, Katie. Also, by
(33:29):
the way, the guy in that video is wearing shorts
shorter than any pair that I own. Oh okay, so it
wasn't Yeah yeah, real cute little booty shorts.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
Now.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
I don't know if this is a political left or
right or age thing or what, but like, if I'm
about to get emotional, most people I know they're about
to get emotional, you like, you know, you want to
go to into another room, right, you know, and keep
it to yourself until you can compose yourself let alone.
Let me get my phone out so I can get
(34:00):
this and then post it for everyone to see, for friends, family, strangers,
people will never meet on the other side of the globe.
Everyone must see me. Well it's not hinged. Yeah, yeah.
Part of it is cultural, you know. Part of it's
hard times, tough people. Tough people aren't good times soft people,
(34:24):
blah blah blah. Yeah, and part of that is part
of it that a lot of the emotional stuff you
would consider private. And then part of it is you
want to be tough, you want to be I can
handle this situation. I'm still I've got I've got my faculties.
I can still you know, be a dad, be a worker,
be the things I've got to be. I'm gonna keep
(34:44):
it together here as opposed to a minute, and then
we'll get on with this. As opposed to I want
to go to the other direction and show you just
how devastated I am by whatever the latest thing is.
What were you before? I want to know what that
person who was employed doing? Yeah, wow, I have nothing
(35:09):
but this website that I'm sure six people enjoy. Oh
my wow. Yeah, humankind cannot endure the Internet and social media.
That might be the bottom line is that we just
(35:31):
are not going to be able to adjust to this.
We're not designed to be able to know the thoughts
of everybody in the village. And then just because of
the way social media works. And you'll hear from this
from the Utah governor next hour when we play it,
he's talking about the algorithm. So it's not even just
hearing what the person on the other side of the
(35:51):
village has to say. It's that it gets amplified over
all other voices. So you don't hear what you're the
two hots next to you say, which is completely normal
and within the mainstream, or the fifty huts next to
you that are all normal in mainstream. You only hear
the craziest ones. Right, Hey, yeah, we just it may
not work. This may not work. Do you believe in
(36:16):
an almighty God, all seeing God? I can just picture
the fruit he was thinking, All right, let's see the
Old Testament's written thousands of years ago. People have no
idea what the internet is or social media I'll just
all have to come up with a great metaphor. It's
a I'll call it the fruit of the tree and knowledge.
I'm actually talking about social media, but it'll be a
(36:38):
few thousand years. We'll see what they can do. He
just picturing the silicon chip, the computer, the social media.
Do we the thing we cannot handle? Do we know
what that nut job posted just glee about Kirk dying. Uh,
don't know the specifics. No, the one fellow is fairly
specific that he said he felt joy and posted that
(37:00):
employer did not hear that, granting, screaming toddler fit person.
Your employer did not hear that? And think, well, there's
an employee I need to hang on to.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
We made a.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
Mistake firing old Jim. Call him back, see if he'll
come back with us. Oh my god, Armstrong and Geeddy
