Speaker 1 (00:01):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong and Gatty and
now he.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Armstrong and Ytty. God bless all of you.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Kirk's widow, Erica, who will succeed her husband as CEO
of Turning Point, the conservative youth organization he founded, speaking
emotionally about her husband, and I will miss him.

Speaker 4 (00:40):
I will miss him so much because our marriage and
our family were cutiful.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Still, Erica Kirk, saying she would not weigh in on
whether the government should seek the death penalty for her
husband's accused killer, telling The New York Times quote, I
do not want that man's blood on my ledger.

Speaker 5 (00:58):
Ian boasted, yet, excuse me, gush arnat. That was gonna
be good, but my phlegm got in the way. The
big Charlie Kirk memorial was yesterday. Two hundred thousand people
showed up, is watched by they say one hundred million
people worldwide. That's mostly the religious element, not the maga element,
which I don't think the media has quite caught on

(01:18):
to yet. But anyway, Ian Bremmer tweeted yesterday Erica Kirk
displayed great empathy, compassion, and leadership. I'd love to see
others learn from her example. The United States would benefit. Uh,
she's something, you know. Not surprising. He was absolutely amazing.
He was a one in a ten million, and not
surprising that he married somebody who was also pretty impressive.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah, sorry, I was deep in thought. Uh, what do
we want to play next?

Speaker 5 (01:51):
Well, let's get to the big I forgive you line
that has gotten so much attention.

Speaker 6 (01:56):
That man, that young man, I forgive him.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
I forgive him because it was what Christ did.

Speaker 6 (02:18):
And is what Charlie would do.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
The answer to hate is not hate. The answer we
know from the Gospel is love and always love, love
for our enemies, and love for those who persecute us.
My husband, Charlie, he wanted to save.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Young men, just like the one who took his.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Life, that young man on the cross. Our Savior said, Father,
forgive them, for they not know what they do.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
So I missed this.

Speaker 5 (03:14):
I think I knew Charlie Kirk was a very religious man,
and that was a lot of what he was doing.
I didn't realize that that was most of what he
was doing until I saw some of his friends speaking
over the last week or so, I saw one of
his close friends say, if Charlie could have known that
this many people would have been led to the Word

(03:34):
of Christ with his death, he would have been he
would have gladly volunteered for it. I mean, he was
that kind of person, and that's what he wanted to do. So,
you know, I think that people who were not in
the Charlie Kirk world, certainly the mainstream media, who might
not even have known his name until the assassination, have
missed the spreading the Gospel part of this, as opposed

(03:57):
to the he helped Trump get elected.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Part, which is all right, big, very big, which I
think brings us back to the point that conservative America
is very, very familiar with the arguments and attitudes of
lefty America because we're surrounded by it in the media
and education complex, among other places. Whereas a lot of
people on the left, I mean your Blue Sky crowd

(04:20):
and your internet activist certainly, and also your media people,
they don't actually know any conservatives, or very few. I
remember there's a poll that came out recently. I wish
I hadn't in front of me, but that conservatives are
vastly more able to describe accurately the point of view

(04:40):
of lefties than vice versa. And I think the horrific
murder of mister Kirk and Memorial Service and everything that
flows from it, I think, if nothing else, the mainstream
media among others, are being forced to confront Oh, that's
what these people are, that's what they say, that's what

(05:01):
they believe.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
That's different than the cartoon i'd heard.

Speaker 5 (05:06):
I mean that whatever. There were eighty thousand people in
that stadium at the Memorial, so many of them with
their hands in the air at various points in the
style of you know, religious gatherings every Sunday all across America.
That had to be new to a lot of your
mainstream media who thought that the whole Charlie Kirk thing

(05:26):
was about getting Trump elected in Maga, arguing about trans.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
And yeah, hating on gay people or something. At least
that's what I heard on Blue Sky. Yes, yeah, speaking
of the President of the United States, he said this
thing was.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Five hours long, So in five hours you're.

Speaker 5 (05:42):
Going to have stuff that's not all about Jesus in
turning the other cheek.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
An excellent preamble, Yes, indeed, And the President was at
times inspiring and at times wtfing I see often is
why don't we start with forty five?

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Michael? He did was right for our nation.

Speaker 7 (06:03):
And so on that terrible day September tenth, twenty twenty five,
our greatest evangelist for American liberty became immortal. He's a
manyl now for American freedom.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
And the President went on. He was a.

Speaker 7 (06:22):
Missionary with a noble spirit and a great, great purpose.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
He did not hate his opponents.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
He wanted.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
The best for them.

Speaker 7 (06:32):
That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent
and I don't want the best for them.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
I'm sorry. I am sorry Erica.

Speaker 7 (06:42):
But now Erica can talk to me and the whole
group and maybe they can convince me that that's not right.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
But I can't stand my opponent. See, I find that hilarious.
For one thing. I find that hilarious.

Speaker 5 (06:55):
And we were talking about Kamala Harris's book earlier and
how every point before, during and since the campaign she
takes the oh, I better not view of everything because
she's so scared of doing the wrong thing. Donald Trump
is at a memorial where people are crying and talking
about Jesus in forgiveness, and he still says, I know

(07:17):
I shouldn't say this, but I hate my poets. Yeah
he is not focused grouped to death. I'll tell you that.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
Oh no, no, indeed.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
And that's actually kind of funny and enduring how he
apologized to Erica. Maybe you could talk to me, Maybe
you can convince me I hate my opponents.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
It's it's probably worth mentioning.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
If when he was still with us, you had said
to Charlie Kirk, Hey, you know what we could have
We could have the administration intimidate TV networks into taking
off people who agree with Trump.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
He'd have gone crazy, right, He just said no, no, no,
haven't you heard a word?

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Have said no, we need to engage, And so, yeah,
I hate that. But we talked about that fairly, thoroughly
an hour or whenever it was check your local listings
or the podcast notes or something like that.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
But yeah, we have better ideas. We're in the majority.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
A lot of you, and I'm saying that not accusedatorally,
it's sympathetically. A lot of you were convinced that you
were in the minority. And maybe you were like in
your town or in your university or your blue city
or state or whatever. But no, in terms of like
the American people the same views of humanity and government
and free speech and the rest of it, we're in

(08:36):
a huge majority. We have better ideas, So we don't
need to resort to, you know, unprincipled crap like you know,
you know, violating the principles of free speech and claiming, yeah,
they're misinforming people, so let's shut them down.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
No, we just need to be a better do a
better job.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
Elon Musk, who's they're sitting next to President Trump, first
time they've been together since they're falling out. People made
a big soap opper deal out of that. Who freaking cares.
But somebody asked Musk a question while he was there,
why was he killed?

Speaker 3 (09:08):
He was killed because his voice made a difference, because
he was.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Showing people the lights and he was killed by the dark.

Speaker 5 (09:21):
And Elon talked about throwing some money that direction, which
obviously could be a very big deal. I don't have
any idea where Elon is from a religious standpoint. He
did tweet this out yesterday on his own platform. They
murdered our emissary of peace and cold blood message received.

(09:41):
Is there any way to take that other than you know,
you brought a knife to a gunfight sort of talk, or.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
Well, yeah, I'm troubled by that. I don't know what
he meant or where to go from there. Elon is mercurial, obviously,
and you know, speaking of needing some churching up his
quote there about he showed them the light and he
was killed by the dark. Well, there's a lovely verse

(10:12):
in scriptures about that about the dark cannot put out
the light. Light puts out darkness. And you know, I
would direct your attention to Elon to the fact that
there are eighteen thousand new chapter requests for Turning Point
USA chapters. That's more well, that's double the extant number
of chapters. I mean, it's like going to triple the

(10:37):
size of the organization. The darkness has not put out
the light. Now, it's awful and horrible that Charlie was
murdered and we've lost a unique and valuable voice. But no,
the dark didn't put out the light.

Speaker 5 (10:52):
It'll be interesting to watch this over time if this
is a lasting moment that has much significance. Everything he
did up to the day he died had great significance.
It got Donald Trump elected. I've listened to enough pund
to say, oh, yeah, that was the difference maker. Without
Charlie Kirk, Trump would have not won. So it wasn't

(11:13):
the only reason he won. But without Charlie Kirk, he
doesn't win. And you know that's that's a pretty big deal.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
Yeah it is. I would I hate that.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
That's like the whole list of things that Charlie accomplished.

Speaker 5 (11:27):
Well, from what a lot of news coverage, Yeah, from
what I understand from listening to a couple of his
friends being interviewed, he'd be more about the you know,
one person, one young man in Oklahoma who found Jesus
through his speaking, That's what he cared more about.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
Or the tens of thousands of college kids, men and
women who thought, you know what, I'm not going to
be afraid anymore. He accomplished that. Never mind, who's the
temporary resident of the White House. As significant as that
tends to be, that's a hell of an accomplishment.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
It's wonderful, well done.

Speaker 5 (11:59):
Yeah, I'll tell you one thing he wouldn't agreed with
was having an Attorney general used the term hate speech
like it's a thing and that the government can crack
down on it.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Whatever it is. I mean, that is anti Charlie Kirk.

Speaker 5 (12:12):
Within days of its assassination, Anti A and G too
hate it.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
We got more aid speech, Pan Bondy, I hate what
you said. I hate it. There you go, there's some
hate speech. Armstrong, Hey Geeddy, come on, calm with me.
He's going through the front of the store. Clear the
front of the store. There's people in the store.

Speaker 5 (12:33):
I would rather get the bear out of the store
have them followed me out.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
They kind of like poured at each other for a
little bit. The bear got on top of him. My
guys were outside.

Speaker 7 (12:43):
Luckily enough, they've got the bear distracted long enough to get.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
My dog on a leash.

Speaker 8 (12:47):
My heart just sank. I got tears in my eyes.
I'm tearing up now thinking about it. I asked the
cop was that just a tranquilizer or did you have
to shoot him? And he said we had to shoot him,
and I thought of crying.

Speaker 9 (12:58):
Growler Pines Tiger Preserve in southeast Oklahoma, says caretaker Ryan
Easily died Saturday. Easley was performing in an educational demonstration
with a tiger he's raised since he was a cub.
When the animal apparently turned on him. The preserve says
tours and animal encounters are canceled indefinitely.

Speaker 5 (13:15):
Animals are rising up against us people. We have a
bear story and a tiger story.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
What do we do? Where do you want to start?

Speaker 2 (13:24):
The bear running through the Dollar General store in New Jersey,
bargain hunting bear, working class bear, a bear who didn't
have a lot of disposable income during these times of
income inequality.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
A bear who likes buying Chinese flimsy crap. Yeah, that's
a good point.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
I liked how the ABC News, when they were teasing
the story about the tiger thing, said a terrible accident
at the tiger enclosure.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
I'm thinking that was no accident. That was murder.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
It's not like the tiger tripped and took the guy
out on his knees, knead.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
No, he bit his freaking head off.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
Literally, but no, he probably did what tigers do. He
clamped his jaws down on the guy's throat till he suffocated.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Like happened to Roy.

Speaker 5 (14:11):
Yes, Katie, I have to fess up for a major
mistake that I'm realizing I just made.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
I cut out the part of that.

Speaker 10 (14:17):
News story where they said the cause of death has
not yet been determined.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
You're kidding, no, that we need that. I know that
is too good.

Speaker 5 (14:25):
I'm guessing the cause of death was a high blood pressure.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
No, when the tiger's fangs were sinking into his throat,
he thought, you know, I have nothing to live for,
and he killed himself.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
It wasn't prostate cancer. Another COVID victim COVID Michael Covid.
That's right.

Speaker 5 (14:49):
And of course this on the heels of me being
driven from my campground by a bear yesterday morning up
in north of Westport, California, town of hundred and ninety nine.
And I would like to move there and make it
two hundred even because I could live in a place
like that. But we're out there camping and in the
middle of the night, bang bang bang bang bang bang

(15:11):
really really loud next to the tent. Finally woke me
up and I finally got my senses. O.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
What is that? It's right next to our tent.

Speaker 5 (15:18):
The bear was beaten the hell out of our cooler
until it finally broke the lid open, and there was
nothing in there but I think the smell of meat.
And then Henry and I screamed and yelled and whistled
and shrieked, and the bear ran off. I guess is
what happened, because when I peeked out the flap, the

(15:39):
bear was gone. The cooler was a mess, and we
couldn't get back to sleep because the bear had been
that close to our tent, and we just packed up
and left at four thirty in the morning.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
I had to look up where Westport is because I
didn't remember seeing it.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
That's that's way up north.

Speaker 5 (15:56):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's awesome because the north of
Fort brag Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. You drive that far
and you get to be alone. I mean, that's just
way it is with all tourist stuff. You want to
go to Atlas, where I live. You want to go
to uh, half Moon Bay, Sure, it's going to be
very crowded because everybody goes there. You drive clear up
the where I went and there's nobody there. You got
the beach to yourself. It's fantastic. Of course, you'll be

(16:18):
eaten by a bear. The bears are who we thought
they So if the bear hadn't tried to get in
my tent, like if I'd had food in the tent,
which I almost did. It's after the food, it's not
after me, right, They're not playing and eat people.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
No, No, Although if it comes across you and believes
you're a mortal threat to it, it will slash you
with its claws and chomp you with its mighty fangs. Right,
that's the problem. It's a misunderstanding. But bears are not
good listeners.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Right, God dang it.

Speaker 5 (16:48):
It took me a while before I had the guts
to stick my head out that tent flap. I know
if the bear was standing right, they're about to breathe
the top breadth of my head.

Speaker 1 (16:56):
Way like, wait, you'll come out. They always come out,
just holst.

Speaker 5 (16:59):
It's that's exactly what I was thinking. Trump made one
of the biggest announcements he's ever made yesterday. It's not
getting as much news attention as it should. We'll play
that for you coming up, and a bunch.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Of other stuff, Armstrong and Getty.

Speaker 7 (17:17):
I think we found an answer to autism. How about
that autism tomorrow?

Speaker 5 (17:24):
Holy crap, How has this not gotten more attention? The
President of the United States announced in front of that
thunderous crowd yesterday that we think we have an answer
to autism. And here's a little more on that report.

Speaker 11 (17:38):
Well.

Speaker 10 (17:38):
The President also talking politics at the memorial service, saying
his announcement today on autism could be one of his
most important as president.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
We're going to be talking the Oval office in the
White House.

Speaker 7 (17:53):
About autism, how it happens, so we won't let it
happen anymore, and bugging everybody over there get the answer
to that.

Speaker 10 (18:06):
So, a source with the Department of Health and Human
Services tells News Nation that a report found using thailanol
during pregnancy may lead to autism. The President expected to
warn women against the use of thailanol while pregnant unless
they have a high fever. Now ken view the makers
of tailanol. They have said their research does not find

(18:27):
a link between autism and using the drug during pregnancy.
The President is also expected to announce a cancer and
anemia drug as a potential therapy for those with autism.

Speaker 5 (18:39):
So thailand All did not say, yep, you're right, Thailand All,
because autism soon?

Speaker 1 (18:43):
What does anyway?

Speaker 2 (18:46):
Yeah, well, you know, we'll research it, thank you very much. No,
you don't get to be involved, right, They don't send
the NFL player who may or may not have gotten
his feet in bounds to look at the replay to
judge whether he did or not.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
Tilan all so just settled a hell down. I am really.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Anxious to hear how weighty the scientific evidence is and
see what the reasonable reactions to this might be.

Speaker 5 (19:12):
Well, it's why is it getting so little attention because
Trump gets out of over his skis sometimes And yeah,
and you got the RFK junior factor. And honestly, and
we don't know that that's what this is, but it
could be the old half sarcastic saying that if Trump

(19:33):
cured cancer, Democrats would come out pro cancer.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
Yeah, there's a certain truth of that, but I mean,
obviously this would be a huge deal.

Speaker 5 (19:45):
I hope it's true. Be bad news for tailan all,
but I hope it's true. I mean, if we could
figure out, yep, this is it. This is like ninety
percent of why autism exists. It's tailand al during quadruproles
your chances or whatever.

Speaker 4 (19:59):
I do.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
My question is and this ought to be answered fairly quickly.
But to do the sort of study that you would
need following lots and lots of pregnant women and their
use of acetamnifine and autism in their children when it developed.
That would be a year's long process. I mean obviously

(20:24):
just because well you got nine months worth of pregnancy.
Then you have to wait till they're diagnosed or recognized
as being autistic.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
So was the study already around and they just were
willing to publish it or where did this information come from?
Or is somebody just talking out their hind end? Right
that's the question. Yeah, yeah, Okay, different topic.

Speaker 5 (20:47):
So memorial service yesterday, very very nice, all sort of stuff.
Charlie Kirk's wife is quite amazing. But back to just
the grubby world of the assassination. Dude was a furry.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
I heard that.

Speaker 5 (21:12):
He was talking lots about furries with a group of
people online playing video games and texted about furries, so
so it wasn't just trans it was furry.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
Also, well, yeah, he's an angry misfit with some kinks.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
Yeah, I don't know that the particular kinks or that's
you know, significantly.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
I don't know that they're not. No, it's just I
did you know, I'm not exactly sure what makes you
a furry?

Speaker 4 (21:37):
Like?

Speaker 5 (21:37):
So, was he dressing up as an animal or making
his boyfriend girlfriend dressed up like an animal.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
Or I don't I don't know what's going on there,
and then this other angry they did the old you
want to do a little role playing little bear and camper.

Speaker 5 (21:51):
You beat a campus, You beat the camper who sound asleep,
who left bacon in his backpack. I'll be the bear,
the hungry bear. Why do you always get to be
the bear? Why can't I be the bear once and
you be the camper? So this from the New York Post.
FBI probes chilling theories questions behind Charlie Kirk's assassination as

(22:12):
online salutes stir.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
Controversy, and they're looking at a bunch of different angles.

Speaker 5 (22:16):
And one that we have not discussed on the air,
although I've heard about it on a couple of different podcasts,
is a lot of young people looked at that text
conversation that got released. This is while you were on vacation,
the text conversation between the shooter scumbag and his boyfriend girlfriend,
and young people say, no way, that's real.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
That's not the way young people talk to each other.
That's not the way they text.

Speaker 5 (22:41):
And a part of it being around, part of it
was about the lovey dovey stuff, which I just thought,
that's because you all, you young weirdos, don't date and
don't know how people in love talk to each other.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
That's part of that. It sounds weird to you because
you've never been in love before.

Speaker 3 (22:58):
That.

Speaker 5 (22:58):
I actually think that is part of it, which is
sad actually, So you've never been crazy head over heels
with somebody and you know and reacted that way. So
this it does look weird to the outside world when
you see those someverzations.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
We let our sarcasm and ironic detachment to go away
when we communicate to the people we love.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
Sometimes we're super duper sincere, that's right.

Speaker 5 (23:22):
Yeah, So that part struck the in cell world is strange.
I think that was just two people that are in
love but then also complete sentences with punctuation. Young people said,
no way, nobody writes complete sentences and uses punctuation, which.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
They got a case there.

Speaker 5 (23:42):
But that back and forth was something if you haven't
heard it here, it is that starts with the scumbag
shooter texting his tran's boyfriend, which means it's a girl
wanting to become a boy or a boy wanting to
become a girl.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Whatever, drop what you're doing, look under my keyboard. What
you're joking?

Speaker 2 (24:00):
Right?

Speaker 5 (24:02):
I am still okay, my love, but I'm stuck in
Orum Town in Utah for a little while longer yet
shouldn't be long until I can come home. But I
got to grab my rifle still. To be honest, I
had hoped to keep this secret till I died of
old age. I'm so sorry to involve you. He She responds,
you weren't the one who did it, right, I am,
I'm sorry. I thought they caught the person. So this

(24:24):
is at the beginning when his trans boyfriend had heard
about the shooting and the killing and had heard that
somebody had been caught, which turned out to be that
old man weirdo who claimed he was the killer to
distract the police so the killer could get away.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
That's its own weird story.

Speaker 5 (24:42):
Who turns out to be a pedophile and is going
to go to prison forever as a pedophile.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
Good good. But so his.

Speaker 5 (24:53):
Boyfriend had heard that and it was like, you're not
the killer, right, I mean, that is that is wild,
isn't it. You weren't the one who did it, right?
I am sorry? Is his response.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (25:10):
I also think it's interesting that his plan was I
gotta grab my rifle. Still, he must not have realized
what this was gonna unleash, assassinating Charlie Kirk. There was
zero chance. There wasn't gonna be such a presence of

(25:30):
thousands of cops and FBI agents that you were going
to go back to the woods and retrieve your rifle.
All right, That was never gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
Oh yeah, And to think that it could be is
pardon me, but on the topic, it's a very autistic
young man thing to think. And he's not diagnosed, and
I don't know if there's any history of it. But
you know, as I mentioned last week, if you look
at a couple of videos that he and his family

(25:59):
have posted on line, you get the vibe that you
might be on the spectrum.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
Oh I just wonder.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:06):
Yeah, he was super smart, which often autistic people are.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Yeah, and it is a spectrum, sure. And I'm not
making an excuse or anything like that. I'm just saying
to miss something that incredibly obvious, Oh, I'm going to
create I'm going to perpetrate a super high profile murder
in front of thousands of people. I'm going to hide
the weapon within I think it was just within a

(26:30):
few blocks of the university.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Then I'm going to go back for it later.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
I mean, that's just that is a plan that does
not react, It does not display a grasp of reality anyway.
And you know what's interesting to me is people who
utterly reject the notion that.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
The murderer, or the would be murderer in the.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
Case of the Pennsylvania assassin, would be assassin of Donald Trump. Yeah,
it's an alienated, disaffected, angry young man who wants to
make a name for himself.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
No, it can't. It has to be more than that. Oh, no,
it really doesn't.

Speaker 5 (27:11):
Yeah, I mentioned I was talking to a quanon ish
I don't know what you'd described this crowd as being,
but they're the very online that I guess. Candice Owens
is putting this out there.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
The killer.

Speaker 5 (27:26):
It was clearly the the Masad killed Charlie Kirk, and
the CIA and FBI are in on it and framed
this kid around it.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Yeah, because of his staunch, never ending support for Israel,
they had to end his life.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
Seriously, Candae Owans is a kook, so she is a
savvy exploiter of people.

Speaker 5 (27:54):
She is a kook, But isn't there I guess you
talked about this a week or so ago with like
doomsday cults, because I was gonna say, isn't her runway
getting pretty short of?

Speaker 1 (28:06):
Oh no, that's the whole go ahead. Sorry, finish your
thought of.

Speaker 5 (28:10):
Coming up with various things that could be and then
they don't ever pan out. I would think at some
point he just you lose all credibility.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
Oh right, you would. But that's the skill set. That's
a great description of what they do. So well.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
They invent scenarios to explain the non fruition of the
old scenario, and then they explain how those insidious bastards
figured it out and they got this, and none of
it is falsifiable. You can't prove or disprove any of it.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
That's the key. I mean, if you could, then the
jig would be up.

Speaker 5 (28:43):
The person I was talking to was talking about cash
Betel's testimony last week and how obviously he was lying
and what a terrible liar he is and all that
in an attempt to cover up what's actually going on
here for Israel, covering up for Israel.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
I guess yeah, Okay, yeah, I don't.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
One of these days, maybe I'll design one of those
just as a mental exercise.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
It'd be fun. It's like writing a soap opera. Should
you get people in?

Speaker 2 (29:09):
No, I wouldn't want to do that because I'd prefer
to do good, not evil. Depending on your view of
the show, you know, maybe you think I'm actually doing evil.
Uh yeah, but it's just an intellectual exercise.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
It's like, do you they a never ending plots? Do
you think it's as easy as it looks?

Speaker 5 (29:29):
Because it looks really easy, and it's just the fact
that you got to be kind of evil to do.

Speaker 1 (29:34):
It that keeps it from not happening more often. Yeah,
I think so. I don't think it's super hard. But
it's like music.

Speaker 2 (29:40):
I mean, you could write one of these and it
would be thoroughly competent, but people wouldn't get caught up
in it. Or you could be a Paul McCartney type,
who you know writes melodies that people sing for.

Speaker 1 (29:52):
The until the end of time.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
It's it's a gift to design a conspiracy theory that
strings along as and personality type. And I'm sure there
are really good books written about this and how it
works exactly.

Speaker 5 (30:08):
She think candas Owan's is closer to the Paul McCartney
of conspiracy stuff.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
She's made a handsome living at it. Sorry, sir Paul,
to drag you in this. She at least the ringo
or should I have gone with ringo?

Speaker 1 (30:24):
She is reasonably skilled. She's a very smart lady.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
And I remember doing an event with her in Napa,
California and where she spouted the Mainstreamish conservative line and
her awakening to what was right and what's wrong with
the world.

Speaker 4 (30:39):
It was.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
It was really well done.

Speaker 5 (30:40):
I thought she was an up and comer as who
she legitimately was a successful black woman who had fought
against the you know, the bulls. I'm being held down
by my race and gender. And yeah, because we were
in the green room with her for a long time,
and I thought that's fantastic because she decided to go
a different direction and has become probably quite.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Wealthy this way. Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (31:03):
Guaranteed it wasn't the Jews that killed Charlie Kirk, by
the way, it just wasn't. It doesn't make any sense.
We will finish strong next Army Strong and Yetty, a.

Speaker 12 (31:14):
Group of tech and media giants including Larry Allison and
Lachlan Murdoch will be involved in taking over TikTok's algorithm.
It comes as Press Secretary Caroline Levitt told Fox News
that a deal between the US and China will include
Americans holding six of the seven seats on a new
board overseeing TikTok's US operation. Trump extended the TikTok band's

(31:35):
deadline for a fourth time, now set to expire in December.

Speaker 5 (31:38):
Extended with no authority whatsoever in Congress. Just says okay,
but anyway, that's its own thing, the TikTok world. We
had a funny guest did you missed on Thursday? A
fuck hilarious guest from CBS to talk about TikTok. And
he was a really good it was a really interesting dude.
I end up talking him about a lot of stuff

(32:00):
by him on I started asking about teching you. He said,
I don't really know.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
I don't. I don't. I'm not into TikTok. It's not
my thing.

Speaker 5 (32:06):
You're the CBS reporter for the TikTok deal. Yeah, I said,
do you have tiktoking in front? He said, no, I
don't do that sort of stuff. I'm not into social media, so.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
What do you know?

Speaker 1 (32:19):
But you liked him?

Speaker 5 (32:19):
Huh yeah, oh yeah, he was a very likable guy.
Just did that, didn't know anything about that particular topic.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
I will seek out the podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand. Huh,
you can go back to old episodes speaking of Asians.

Speaker 11 (32:32):
Jack.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
You know what, I'm gonna do it like this.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
We're gonna this.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
This is fun, this is this is this is real life.
We have not prepared this.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
I'm gonna mention a business and you tell me the
first couple of things that popped in mind seven eleven.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Necrophilia? What come on? Come off? Slurpy slurpy? And what
what do people buy at a seven eleven?

Speaker 12 (33:00):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Slim gyms, slorpies and lottery cards? Right and smokes? That's right. Well.

Speaker 2 (33:06):
The Japanese parent company of seven to eleven, who knew
they had a Japanese parent company, huh, is betting billions
of dollars that it can expand its business in the
US by making its convenience stores in the.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
US more like they are in Japan.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
Specifically, in Japan, the seven eleven stores have lots of
pretty damn good quality prepared foods.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
Oh really, you don't get a slim gym. You get
a really good egg sandwich or something like that. I
would like that. That'd be fantastic.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Yeah, in Britain they've got similar stores that Judy and
I hit all the time.

Speaker 5 (33:42):
If you are in line behind somebody inconvenience store in
the United States, ninety percent of the time they're getting
two of these three items energy, drink, lottery, tickets, cigarettes.

Speaker 11 (33:53):
That's not good, Chad Cornstrong and to Gertie Fine.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.

Speaker 2 (34:11):
Those foods those stores rather were called prete mange or
ready to eat. Hey, Britain, you want it Waterloo? What
are you letting your businesses got French names for huh
ready to eat? Let's get a final thought from everybody
and the crew to wrap up the show. Michaelangelo lead
us please.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Okay, I've become that guy. I've my team is undefeated
in the NFL.

Speaker 4 (34:33):
I've been wearing a T shirt before each game, and
so I'm going to keep that tradition.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
I'm not going to wash the shirt. I'm officially superstitious.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
I'm sure your wife would think, well, it was clean
when you were it the first time. Maybe that's part
of the magic, So why don't we clean it right?
Katie Greener seemed to use woman as a final thought.

Speaker 10 (34:54):
Katie, I'm going to be keeping my eye on the
news today with this whole tailand all autism announcement of
course time.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Wow, if there's much science behind it, that'd be such
a huge deal.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
Yeah, yeah, I got my skeptical hat on, but keep
an open minds certainly.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
Jack a final thought for us.

Speaker 5 (35:10):
I hate the UN and everything that it is about,
but there are some damn dis or interesting issues before
the United Nations this week, and Trump is going to
speak before the General.

Speaker 1 (35:20):
Assembly meaningless debating society.

Speaker 4 (35:23):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
My final thought is sorry about ducking out on the
show last week, but I was playing golf with some
good old friends who I hardly see anymore, and it
was just absolutely fantastic. Life is all about the people
in it. Reach out to those old old friends that
you don't talk to me.

Speaker 5 (35:38):
Armstrong and Getty wrapping up another grueling four hour workday.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
So many people, thanks so little time. Good to Armstrong,
getdy dot com a lot of great hot links for you.
Drop us a note mail bag at Armstrong and getdy
dot com. You can pick up some a g swag
there the hoodies, I'm telling you, under the Christmas tree.
It's time to start shopping now Armstrong.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
In getdy dot com. See tomorrow, God bless America. Armstrong
and Getty.

Speaker 7 (35:58):
Our greatest evangelist, the American Liberty, became immortal.

Speaker 6 (36:02):
He wanted to save young men, just like the one
who took his life.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
It is better face a gunman than to live your
life afraid to speak the truth.

Speaker 11 (36:13):
And we are going to have a great reunion there
again with Charlie Man, that young man.

Speaker 6 (36:20):
I forgive him.
