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

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Jack Armstrong is Joe, Ketty arm Strong and Katty and
he Armstrong and Yetty.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
So Jimmy Kimmell going back on the air last night,
to me, is like the fourth most interesting or important
thing that happened yesterday, maybe not even that eye with
a whole bunch of major news stories. But it's getting
the most coverage because well because the mainstream media loves
the anti Trump Jimmy Kimmel. But even with the amount
of coverage, it's getting the most dramatic thing he said,

(00:45):
is not getting played.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
We'll play it for you a little bit later this hour.
Looking forward to renewing that discussion. But first it's a
gender bending madness update.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
So I kept hearing about this thing called the Loco.
We're a brave new World. We're gonna begin the report with.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
A completely shocking but unsurprising story from beautiful Elk Grove, California,
not terribly far from the radio ranch from which this
fine show originates. Elk Grove, which has a bit of
a history with woke education, recently had a school board
meeting about whether they should continue to allow big males

(01:34):
to whoop up on girls in sports, in girl sports,
because if you don't follow this, if a boy says
I'm a girl, now they get to compete in girls
sports and go into girls' bathrooms and watch them get undressed.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
It's so enlightened.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
Well predictably, the parents despise it, and we're calling for
a change in the rules. We'll start with ninety Michael,
it's a montage your parents, the over filming majority of
whom sounded like this.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
I just want to remind the board of the executive
orders that prevent transgender girls and women from participating in
female sports. That means men and boys participating in female sports.
Women's sports are reserved for those assigned female at birth,
so you have to be a girl or a woman
to participate in girl or women's sports. This is ridiculous

(02:22):
that we have to say this.

Speaker 5 (02:24):
Just this morning, on a local radio show that's nationally syndicated,
the host praise this board for doing.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
The right thing.

Speaker 5 (02:30):
I think they had already assumed you were going to
be voting yes for this resolution, So I'm hoping that
you will join fifteen other districts and also vote for
the resolution.

Speaker 6 (02:39):
I have two lovely daughters. They're both in a wallaball club.
Back in May this year, my older daughter's volleyball team.
They were match up against a team make up entirely
of boys in a tournament. When the match began, it
was immediately clear how different the game would be.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
The local radio show referring to was us. I don't
know why they couldn't say her name Armstrong and Getty,
but yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
Sure known conservative maniacs.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
I assumed that the vote would be quite clearly to yeah, no,
we're not going to have transgender boys in the girls.
But it's seven to one the other direction.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Right, right, And as you're about to hear, what the
progressives leaned on was that the state law, which is
in blatant violation of federal law, says no, big strong
boys can just beat the crap out of girls as
long as they throw on a wig and maybe.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
A little masscare or something like this. Very enlightened. Here's
the superintendent, one Chris Hoffman with relation.

Speaker 7 (03:43):
The challenge with the resolution mass presented is it is
contrary to California state law, and so we have as
a district not brought forward resolutions or asked the boy
to take action on any items that would be against
the established state law, because it puts the district potentially

(04:05):
at a situation where we could be sued and or
deal with some other type of legal action, because our
responsibility is to carry out state law.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Well, I do know the one thing schools try to
avoid is being sued to That's why your kids can't
run it recess if it rained yesterday, because.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
Said mister Hoffman, expressing a point of view there that
I find not completely insane, no, but depressing, but depressing
and cowardly. Yeah, Michael Vargas is the president of the
school board.

Speaker 8 (04:42):
My reasoning for also not agreeing to put this on
the agenda, serving in my role as president, is that
this issue is currently before the courts. The courts will
have the final say, and so I think it is
appropriate for us to wait to have a full policy
discussion on this until we get full guidance from the

(05:02):
not just the federal courts, but also the state.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
Michael, I'll tell you this, the courts are going to
spike this ball like a big strong man in a
girl's volleyball game, well right into the face of the
little girls of injustice.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
As you said, you can understand the argument that, look
at violate state law.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
We're not going to.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Violate state law, but you could any non cowardly fashion say.
I agree that I don't think boys should bear diticipating
in girls sports, but the current law of California says,
but you didn't and therefore.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
No, they didn't say that.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
And what about you know, Chris and Michael and I
say this in a an open hearted way because I
would much rather talk about issues than just cast dispersions.
What about the other fifteen school districts that have found
their moral courage and stood up for the girls, including
little girls? What about them? What you do you have

(05:54):
anything to say about them? You think that if you
did and I just didn't hear it, I will say
it correct.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Do you think they're just crazy maniacs violating state law.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Let's cast our eye to yesteryear Jack literally last year
in twenty twenty four, local station in the Sacramento area.
Oddly enough, the same station that got sprayed with bullets
the other day by a progressive Trump hating attorney, was
reporting on a controversy. I think they explained it pretty

(06:25):
well in the report it's a ninety three.

Speaker 9 (06:27):
Michael was a little displeased by the secrecy that was
surrounding the club.

Speaker 10 (06:32):
Parents, like Kyle Dixon, says they learned about the Ubu
club earlier this year, started by a third grade teacher,
which they say told the young students it was a
safe place for boys who crush on boys or girls
who crush on girls.

Speaker 9 (06:46):
It's not the club per se. That concerns me is
the fact that the school in the district has taken
a posture of hiding this intentionally from parents.

Speaker 11 (06:54):
We have guardian clubs, you know, all these other type
of clubs that require parents permission slips, and this club
was not.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
It's the only club that Elk Grove and a third
grade teacher kept secret. And you need a permission slip
for the gardening club, but not the let's talk about
whether you're transgender club.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
Oh as rumors.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
As someone with still kids in school, you need eight
different permission slips with a list of every drug your
kid might take in a doctor's signature to do flipping
anything right in school in the modern world. But you've
got one secret club where there's no permission slip. Okay,
got pretty pretty well easy to understand what's going on there.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
And it's just striking that the poor parents, black, white,
Asian male female young old are all perfectly reasonable and
make perfectly reasonable arguments, and the spokesholes and powers that
be for the school district and the state of California
have nothing but egalistic. We gotta let the court tell

(08:02):
us what we have to do and or woke progressive
slogans to throw at you, which is why it's an
eighty five fifteen you know topic in America. Hey, I
want to squeeze this into the gender Benning Madness Update
as well. It's an absolutely great piece written by Kurt Masselli,

(08:22):
and he's suggesting in it that the CDC one of
the things that it should be doing is it should
be helping young people disfigured by so called gender affirming care.
And this is so powerful. Chloe Cole had a tough adolescence. Okay,
she was a tomboy as a child. She didn't like

(08:43):
girly things, and when she started puberty early eight or
nine years old, she's testified she started to develop breasts
in a womanly physique and started to get unwanted attention
from boys. She's not even ten, and like many kids
in the early to mid twe twenty ten, she spent
a lot of time on social media and video games,
which led her to online communities that told her you're

(09:05):
really a boy, and she came to believe she was
a boy in the wrong body when she was twelve. Quote,
I came out as transgender in a letter I sat
on the dining room table. My parents were immediately concerned.
They felt like they needed to get outside help from
medical professionals.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
But this proved to be a mistake.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
The doctors pushed Chloe and her parents to accept the
lie that she could become a boy over the next
three years.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Remember guaranteed guaranteed. Somewhere in there was she'll kill herself
if you don't. Oh yeah, of course, of course. So
keep in mind this is starting at age twelve. Over
the next three years, she was given hormones to the
lay puberty, then testosterone, then a double mess stect to me, Wow,
as to a child, that is unbelievable. I can't believe
there are doctors that even do that. Oh, I know,

(09:51):
it's monstrous. How do you cheer the doctor that's gonna
cut the breasts off a twelve year old girl.

Speaker 4 (09:56):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
Well she was fifteen when that happened, but she was
told the treatments would help her, but her mental health deteriorated.
When she was sixteen, she realized she'd always been a girl,
of course, but she had no path back to healing
and hope because the medical establishment not only encourages gender
transition but refuses to acknowledge it can ever be a mistake.

(10:21):
And as the writer writes Ms. Cole as physical mental
scars that will be with her for the rest of
her life. She doesn't recognize herself when she looks in
the mirror, and she isn't alone. Nearly fourteen thousand kids
received what is euphemistically called gender affirming care between twenty
nineteen and twenty twenty three alone, and an unknown yet
growing number profoundly regreted their existence and their urgent medical

(10:43):
needs must be brought into the light or short on time.
More on this topic another day. A nine year old
I know it's absolutely horrific and unforgivable, and I tell you,
my heart goes out to the poor parents who, like Chloe's,

(11:03):
were brow beaten by the very medical authorities they've always
been told they should trush into encouraging this horror or
their child would kill themselves. Do you want a live
son or a dead daughter? They would be told, And
so these poor parents went along with it. Now imagine
the weight they're carrying in their hearts.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Terrible. It's a gender bending madness. Update.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Studies have shown that if you don't give your kid
gender affirming care, they will commit suicide, which is completely.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
Bogus, completely made up. Oh yeah, man, that is pretty awful.
Oh yeah, that's enough of that. That is a depressing
topic and crazy, absolutely crazy.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
It ought to energize you to fight against it, though,
that's my point, not to depress anybody.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
We went down that road. I wonder if it might
still going down it.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
It's still ascendant in education, and the medical establishment is.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Crazy woke to it.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
Certainly not culturally, thank god, but no. I wonder what
other crazy things might happen in my lifetime where we
just all of a sudden decide, you know, up is down,
black and white, and people go along with it.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
I mean, because that was crazy that came out on you.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
I was founded to perpetuate slavery, not bring liberty. A
boy can just to Clary's a girl, and that makes
him a girl.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
It's insane.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Eventually we'll get to the really shocking thing. Jimmy Kimmel
said that you probably haven't heard, among other things, on
the way.

Speaker 11 (12:31):
Switching gears is some TV news. Tomorrow night is the
season premiere of The Golden Basslor. Yes, the Golden Bassor
and this season the women fall in love with the
limo driver because he can still drive at night.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
That's hat. That's the whole.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
A couple of different things for you.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Just the non hateful Jimmy. By the way, I just
saw this.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Home sales have surged twenty percent because of the mortgage
rate cut. That surprised me because I didn't think a
quarter point would dislodge many people. It's at six and
a quarter or something the national thirty year, and I
thought that wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
Get many people out.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
But anyway, well, it's twenty five percent over historic lows.
But it's it's progress.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
I'm a renter, and every month when I write my
rent check, it's like, get dang it, rent. I'm not
putting toward anything, but there's a lot of stuff I
like about not owning a house. Oh yeah, that I
would that I'm surprised by. Actually, another thing I wanted
to mention. Google just announced that they are going to

(13:41):
reinstate a whole bunch of accounts that got banned at
the Biden administration's insistence. Where is this conversation while we're
talking about Jimmy Kimmel and free speech and everything like
that YouTube because Biden told them to canceled a whole
bunch of YouTube channels for hate speech.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
I think the right coronavirus came out of the last.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Which is exactly the same as canceling Jimmy Kimmel because
you don't.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Like what he said.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Do you get that or not? Apparently you don't get that.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Friggin hypocrites. This happened yesterday, which is a heck of
a deal.

Speaker 12 (14:15):
The explosive moment in court after Ryan Ruth was found
guilty on all accounts of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump
on his Florida golf course, Ruth attempting to stab himself
in the neck, with the pen officers then swarming him
and dragging him out of the room. Ruth now facing
up to life in prison on five federal charges that
pen Ruth used to stab himself is specially designed to

(14:37):
prevent injuries. He'll be sentenced in December.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
So first of all, as we wonder, why don't you
just back off and let him stab himself. He's a
convicted attempted murderer, so hand him a knife. Yeah, I
don't care. But Katie, thanks for tweeting this out to
us yesterday. She's talking to her dad, the judge who
I had on a week ago. Uh yeah, fake attempt,
you don't try to do it and you're not actually

(15:01):
trying to kill yourself. Saw it in court, except Katie's
dad says he saw it in court once, except he
stabbed his attorney. It happened so fast that if you
really wanted to kill yourself you could. But this gets
you on suicide watching a single cell jail, and also
can be a basis for an appeal to show that
you're he represented yourself and you're crazy and you shouldn't

(15:22):
have been allowed to and blah blah blah.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Yeah, yeah, it's a win win for stabby mcstaberson there.
Plus they got no stabbing pens there, which you're a
thing apparently, well right.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
It's you know, yes, he might actually wanted to stab
himself to death.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
He's not.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
Yeah, and he didn't know the pens were anti suicide
proof or whatever they are. Oh and I came across
this yesterday. The National Review wrote a piece where are
the never Mamdanni Democrats? When Trump ran, there were a
lot of never Trump Republicans that weren't going to put
up with it and stood by that. Are there any
never Mundami Democrats who are going to say, no, I

(15:58):
don't think we should have a communist mayor of New
York City? Nope, Nope, there aren't.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
By the way, he's going to stamp out all the
charter schools as soon as he can. Any chance for
any kids to get a better education than anybody else. Well,
that's not equity. So they're going to try to end that.
It's it's unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
I'm you know, if you're if you lean right, you
got to be excited about this guy becoming mayor of
New York because he's going to be the face of
the Democratic Party and they're all going to be in
the position of either denouncing him or distancing themselves.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Or agreeing with him. I would agree.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
Yeah, I cry. I weep for the people and the
children of New York. But yeah, it's going to be
such a great way to discredit progressive policies.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
I kind of in a weird, evil way and looking
forward to it.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Well, if this is his moderating period, which he hasn't
moderated much, and then he'll go back to his real
core beliefs when he's elected.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Wait till that happens.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
And if you missed our segment about what the Democratic
Socialists of America, with whom he is closely tied, what
they actually believe, it's insane they're communists. Did you know
Jimmy Kimmel cried last night and said he's a follower
of Christ, just like Charlie Kirk's wife. Yeah, he did.
Nobody's playing that clip.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
We will. It's coming up in that narrative.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
Armstrong and Getty.

Speaker 13 (17:22):
I have many friends and family members on the other
side who I love and remain close to, even though
we don't agree on politics at all. I don't think
the murderer who shot Charlie Kirk represents anyone. This was
a sick person who believed violence was a solution and
it isn't it ever, And also selfishly I am I

(17:48):
am a person who gets a lot of threats. I
get many ugly and scary threats against my life, my wife,
my kids, my co workers because of what I choose
to say. And I know those threats don't come from
the kind of people on the right who I know
and love. So that's what I wanted to say on
that subject.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Yeah, he said the opposite last week or a week
before or whenever that was.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
I don't care about.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
It was very very important who who the killer was,
and you're certain it was a mega guy.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yeah, And Charlie Kirk had created this atmosphere on his
own by being the kind of person he is and
kind of deserved it is what you were implying. So
you know, I originally didn't like people thinking he was
crying fake tears. Well, when I think about it, could
I go through this controversy for a week and a half,

(18:36):
having discussed it with lawyers and friends and my spouse
and everybody multiple times thought about it, and then so
turn into tearful, blubbering person that I don't think.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
So, Well, you're a very different person than Jimmy Kimmel.
I don't judge people's blubbering.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
I'm going to I think it's fake.

Speaker 3 (18:54):
Well, I think he was sincere in virtually everything he said,
and I think he is a fool, a complain fool.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
It's it's funny.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
What's I think expected of a conservative commentator, judging by
what I've seen on social media, which is a cesspool
of hate and discuss.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
But anyway is that I don't like Jimmy Kimmel.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
Therefore everything he says is wrong all the time, and
I hate him, hate him, hate him. I think everything
he said about the First Amendment was right. I think
everything he said about it's much more important, well, well
we probably have the clip that it's much more important
that we have the right to have a show like
his than anything he said. I think that's one hundred

(19:35):
percent correct. I also think he's a dishonest, lying, hypocritical,
hypocritical fool. I thought his apology was a non apology.
It was a pathetic, gutless, wheasily attempt at an apology to.

Speaker 2 (19:51):
Why I think the tears are fake?

Speaker 1 (19:52):
How could you go down the road emotionally of getting
to tears without reck recognizing saying that, you know, I
shouldn't have said that, I shouldn't have claimed that the
killer was one of you who Charlie Kirk created.

Speaker 2 (20:11):
I mean, what an awful thing to say.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
Well, and now he's going with it doesn't matter what
the killer's politics were.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
Oh my god, you are so self serving.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Your main point when you came back on the air
on that Monday night was that the killer was maga
and they're trying to cover it up.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
That was your main point.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
Have you beat anybody who was pretending to mourn It
was a fake and mourning like a four year old
morns of goldfish.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
I think it's really interesting that he said this stuff
to and that you're about to hear. And more interesting
is of all the shows I took in last night
that had the highlights and shows this morning that had
the highlights, none of them played this.

Speaker 14 (20:50):
They were a.

Speaker 13 (20:55):
Moment over the weekend, a very beautiful moment.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
I don't know if he saw this.

Speaker 13 (20:59):
On Sunday, Erica Kirk forgave the man who shot her husband.
She forgave him. That is an example we should follow
if you believe in the teachings of Jesus as I do.
There it was, that's it, a selfless act of grace

(21:22):
forgiveness from a grieving widow. It touched me deeply, and
I hope that.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Would touch his money.

Speaker 13 (21:33):
And if there's anything we should take from this tragedy
to carry forward, I hope it can be.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
That and not this.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
So why has nobody played that clip to me? That
was by far the most emotional interesting thing that he
said last night.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Well, the.

Speaker 3 (21:54):
Left, including virtually all of the media, is extremely uncomfortable
with Christianity.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
A lot of them and taught and believe that.

Speaker 3 (22:01):
Yeah, I've heard about Christian nationalism and that's part of
the white supremacy thing, I think somehow or other, and
anti LGBTQ, I a r beef over the power of
three and the rest of it. I've heard that's a
bad thing. So we probably probably shouldn't play that.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Now.

Speaker 3 (22:17):
Every other religion on earth, including Islam, is a beautiful
thing and we must protect against any sort of uh,
you know, discrimination against those wonderful people.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
So you think they're just that most media outlets, because
like MSNBC played a bunch of clips this morning, they
didn't play this one. If they did, I didn't see
it and I watched for a long time. You think
they just don't want their hero Jimmy Kimmel to say
I'm a follower of Christ.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
Yeah. Yeah, he dropped a jbom. That's the way I
would put it. That's interesting. He used a word that
is not allowed on the air. I can't believe though.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
He at no point in all that blubbering and everything,
said I shouldn't have said that. I shouldn't have said that.
I just that's something I shouldn't have said. He couldn't
do that. He couldn't bring himself to do that.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
As Andrew Colvett, who's an executive producer of The Charlie
Kirk Show and a friend, he said the justification the
weazley weazly way Kimmel described what he had said was
not good enough. Quote Jimmy, it's simple. I'm sorry for
saying the shooter was maga.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
He was not.

Speaker 3 (23:27):
He was of the left. I apologize to the Kirk
family for lying. Please accept my superior sincere apology. I
will do better.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
I was wrong.

Speaker 1 (23:34):
I won't even make you say the shooter was of
the left. Just say he was not maga. I shouldn't
have said that, and.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
I was wrong. Yeah, I will try to do better.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
And which I think means a lot to his sincerity.
I have said tons of things I wish I hadn't said.
I mean volumes of things I wish I hadn't said
on this radio show, either out of being worked up
or trying to make a joke that I just wish
I hadn't said, And I would if it ever became

(24:05):
a crisis, I would say, yeah, I wish I hadn't
said that.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
He couldn't do it last night. I don't regret a
word I've said.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
By the way, every chapter and verse absolutely gospel truth,
but any thing I should have said it louder exactly.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
At the same time, I despise the government getting involved.
Of course, it's terrible because the hypocriphsy of the left
is just stunning.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
In fact, you know what.

Speaker 3 (24:35):
On that theme, this is Jen Psaki sixteen Michael talking
about Jimmy Kimmel, and then we'll flash back to twenty
twenty one during the height of COVID.

Speaker 14 (24:44):
The news about Jimmy Kimmel, I think is a pretty
watershed moment. I think we all need to be talking
about we actually and it's not just a media story.
I know you agree with me on this. It's not
just a media story. It's a democracy story. It's a
freedom of speech story. It's so many things. Regularly make
sure social media platforms are aware of the latest narratives.
Shouldn't be banned from one platform and not others if

(25:07):
you for providing misinformation out there.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
So that is Jen Saki, after talking about Kimmel and
the First Amendment concerns which to me are legitimate, back
in twenty twenty one from the White House briefing room,
explaining that anybody who was issuing what she called misinformation
or disinformation, including such madness as the COVID vaccine won't

(25:33):
protect you from infection and children don't need it, and
maybe at leaked from the Woohan lab, and on and
on and on. Anybody who contradicted that should be banned,
not from one platform, but every platform. And anybody who
dared say that was indeed because of White House pressure,
banned from TikTok and from Twitter and from Facebook and

(25:56):
from YouTube, which just yesterday it came out and said, yeah, yeah,
we're a reinstate in a bunch of accounts that we canceled,
and we only did it because.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
The White House threatened us.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
So to have Jen Saki coming out waving the first
Amendment around.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
It's just disgusting.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Right when we've had the biggest political assassination in half
a century and Jimmy Kimmeo goes on and says the
opposite about who the killer was, Right when we're really
worried about inflaming passions and causing more political violence by
you know, stoking the fires and poking the angry people.
He pokes a bunch of angry people, and she doesn't

(26:33):
count that as in the same category as the other stuff. Right,
for the record, in case it is obvious, I think
Jimmy Kimo should get to say what he says, and
people should have been able to say whatever they wanted
to say about COVID. The other day, I'm listening to
at NPR. I texted Joe right after I heard it.
I couldn't believe it. They're having a context a conversation

(26:55):
about this.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
I don't remember what they're talking about in general, but anyway,
the guest and the host.

Speaker 1 (27:00):
The guest said, now, the idea that it the uh
it was a lab leak that caused the covidvice has
been debunked, and the and the host said, yet.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
What, Well, now, those on NPR you're kidding me.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
It has been debunked that COVID leaked out of the lab,
and so we're still in this world of you know,
we can't have disinformation or misinformation. Today Google restating a
bunch of YouTube accounts that were forced off of YouTube
by the Biden administration for saying stuff that was way
more accurate than what they just said on NPR.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Correct.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
Yeah, one d how saying healthy young soldiers shouldn't be
drummed out through the military in these uncertain times, for
not wanting the COVID jab get drummed out of YouTube.
It's just unfriggin believable.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah, I don't know how we get to it a
place of more free speech. And I'm a little worried
about that one.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
By always standing up for that's my only answer, and
that's why I'm doing it. Jimmy Kimmel has the right
to be a complete a hole.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
So uh well, And the reason that I was saying
it you weren't here last week was it's gonna happen
to Joe and I and Kevin Neosom.

Speaker 3 (28:14):
Will be president and he'll say right wing talk radio
is out of control. I'll see in jail I will
not shut up, not at any cost.

Speaker 2 (28:23):
Will I shut up?

Speaker 1 (28:25):
Well, if they don't allow you on the radio, you
mean you can talk to yourself in the parking garage.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
But I don't know. Well I already do that.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
I will find ways, okay, pirate radio, podcasts, newsletters. Uh yeah,
well so like hardly anybody's watching Jimmy Kimmel over broadcast
television anyway. And if he did get canceled, they'd put
him on some sort of Hulu show. They would have

(28:54):
had roughly the same audience, and you wouldn't have sylunced
him at all, So he'd have got to say what
he wanted to say. Yeah, but the but the executive
branch should not be weighing in, of course, at all
at all.

Speaker 2 (29:05):
Trump is wrong on this stuff, of.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
Course, And then him am telling Pam Bondi the attorney General,
to do it, and then at the Attorney General using
the phrase I hate the term hate speech. Hate speech
should not exist as a phrase, right, it makes no sense.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
Yeah, yeah, I would agree completely.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
I don't know how. It was not a great moments. No,
but we're going to continue down that road. I just
I think the next Democrat president will also be in
favor of this sort of thing, so frustrating.

Speaker 3 (29:33):
Hey, Michael, do we still have that clip from back
in the day when that listener, back when we took
calls that lady said that we needed to fight it.
Do we have that fight it? Or did that disappear
from the system during one of those Yeah, yeah, you can.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
Talk on my I have no idea why I did that.

Speaker 1 (29:52):
Yes, okay, some of our favorite clips over the decades
we've been doing this have been purged for some reason.
Memory space? Is that why you can buy like two
terabytes for one hundred bucks.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Can't give some.

Speaker 3 (30:06):
dB who has no idea what they're doing thinking, Yeah,
and g don't need all that space.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Oh, by the way, because that popped into my head.
It could be a conspiracy, but somebody who hates us.
Do you think somebody shut off the escalator right when
Trump got off on it on purpose?

Speaker 2 (30:23):
I hadn't even hadn't even occurred to.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Me until Hansen came in here and yesterday he said,
you think that was an accident?

Speaker 2 (30:28):
And when I thought about it.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
For two seconds, Hell no, there's no way. Just coincidentally,
the very first step Trump makes on it, it shuts.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
Down clean slip. I could believe either way, but I
see your point, and the teleprompter doesn't work. Ah, right now,
you worked for everybody else, now you got me.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
Come on all right, we'll finish strong next.

Speaker 11 (30:55):
And besides the teleprompter, Trump was annoyed because when he
arrived at you and he got an escalator that immediately
stopped working.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
Milania was next to him on the ESK.

Speaker 11 (31:05):
They're like, yeah, two hundred and thirty nine pounds, my ass.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
I noticed he and Malania were holding hands, as I
have a lot lately. So whatever, if it were ever
real problem they had between them, seems to be better.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
She looked fantastic.

Speaker 3 (31:22):
He told her to check your contract again. Man, you
don't believe in comportment. You do not believe in love.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
That's right here. You caught me. You busted me.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
Speaking of Trump at the UN, man did he say
some interesting things, including in the aftermath of his speech
saying that Ukraine could get all of its land back
with the help of Europe and NATO, perhaps which was
shocking to everybody, including as it turns out, Vladimir Zelenski.
Blay me sixty two, Michael, this is Zelensky on Brett

(31:54):
Bear last.

Speaker 15 (31:54):
Night a post from President Trump that he posted on
True Social after your meeting but in party said this,
after getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine Russian
military and economic situation, and after seeing the economic trouble
it is causing Russia, I think Ukraine, with the support
of the European Union, is in a position to fight
and win all of Ukraine back in its original form,

(32:17):
with time, patients and the financial support of Europe and
in particular NATO, the original borders from where this war
started is very much an option.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Are you surprised to hear that a little bit? I
mean this, I'm sure.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
In my army that the key part he had no
friggin idea Trump was about to say.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
I'm sure he had to calculate, what should I say?

Speaker 7 (32:43):
Hear?

Speaker 3 (32:44):
Oh boy, right, I've been well coached to not offend
Trump a little bit.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
And Trump, Trump later in that long screed, says, get
back all the land, maybe even more like take summer Russia.
What this is either a major moment in a major story,
or we'll just kind of never hear of it again.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
Yeah, that is definitely possible. Wow, that is crazy. Trump
is so Mercurial.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
Got a great topic for the One More Thing podcast
that includes actor Matthew McConaughey and his dad who died
while having sex. That'll be the topic of the One
More Thing podcast, so stick around for that.

Speaker 2 (33:29):
Matthew McConaughey's dad.

Speaker 1 (33:31):
Dad, Yes, he died having sex. Yes, which a story
we've known for quite some time. He put it in
his book. When he wrote it, you'd forgotten.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
I was amused.

Speaker 3 (33:40):
I was walking through the Houston Airport recently and they
have T shirts in University of Texas T shirts that
just say all right, all right, alright, final thoughts with
I'm frying.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
Okay, that's weird. Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.

Speaker 3 (33:58):
Let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew
top up the show, starting with our technical director.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
He's a national treasure. Folks, Michaelangelo and Michael Jack. I've
been thinking about this. The Golden Bachelor debuts tonight. What
about if we submitted you to the Golden Bachelor? Am
I old?

Speaker 8 (34:12):
Mough?

Speaker 2 (34:12):
I'm sure you could make it. I don't think I'm
old enough. I think you gotta be a sixty five.

Speaker 3 (34:16):
Year older, so you'd be like the Bronze Bachelor, whatever.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
This could be a big moment in your career. Katie
greenest Our Esteemed Newswoman.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
As a final thought, Katie, contestants for the Golden Bachelor
can be between sixty and seventy five years old.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
Okay, man, that's quite the age range. There's a big
difference between a sixty year old and a seventy five
year old.

Speaker 3 (34:37):
All of the girls that get together and say, you know,
he looks like he wants to murder us. This facial
expressions are terrifying, Jackie. Final thought for us.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
I've got to stop eating so much.

Speaker 1 (34:50):
I've lost all my discipline that I had going for
quite a while has just evaporated.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
And I just I can't get back on the beam.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
You know, sometimes you're on the beam and it almost
feels effortless to not eat too much.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
I fell off the beam. My final thoughts.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
Without freedom speech, may we be led dumb to the
slaughter like sheep George Washington. Stand up for free speech
even when it's hipocritical, lying, unfunny, jackass a holes nobody
in mind in particular, just you know.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
In general, am I right or am I wrong?

Speaker 1 (35:24):
Though you get in a groove with like eating okay,
and it just seems I can do this forever.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
Hear yeah, I got it. And then you've spoken those
words out loud.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
Then you fall off, and it just seems impossible that
you were ever on. Yeah, Armstrong in Getty wrapping up
another grueling four hour workday.

Speaker 3 (35:43):
So many people thanks a little time. Good Armstrong in
Geddy dot com. Enjoy the hot links, Enjoy Katie's corner.
Pick up some swag for your favorite A and G fan.
Why there are only something something days till Christmas. The
hoodie is very popular with the lighthoody.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Yeah, you gotta have a hoodie in the fall. We
will see tomorrow. God bless America.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
I'm Strong and Getty.

Speaker 9 (36:05):
There's one way to say the world has gone a
straight mushroom clouds and chuckles.

Speaker 2 (36:12):
Up is down, Black is white, and boys are girls.

Speaker 11 (36:17):
It's all insane, hurting our brains to mushroom clouds and chuckles.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
But at least we can laugh with Joe and Jack
the Armstrong and Gatty. Armstrong and Getty
