Speaker 1 (00:01):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Arm Strong and Jetty and Key Armstrong and Yetty. So
we're trying to wrestle to the ground.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
What the hell Gavin Newsom was talking about? So he
was asked about running for president? Even that exchange was weird.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
And I don't play that too, And let's start there.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I just why can't he I think we've discovered his
flaw or it's on purpose tactic.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
I'm not exactly sure what.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
So here he is with Robert Costa being asked about
running for president on CBS at thirty three.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Is that right? Yeah, thirty three.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
After the twenty twenty six midterms.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
You're going to give it serious thought. Yeah, I'd be
lying otherwise I just be lying. And I can't do that.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Governor, you have long said that if you ever run
for the White House, you need a compelling why, a reason.
Are you moving closer to figuring out your own why
and your own decision?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:14):
And Heeds just said to you, compelling why you can
endure anyhow, And so I don't think.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I think the biggest challenge for.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
Anyone who runs for any office is people see right
through you.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
If you don't have that why, Well, did you get
to the why or.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:28):
He's kind of building up to it. That was more
comprehensible than usual. But yeah, so it started off the
one sentence with Admyer younger better well.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Following people who run for president, generally it works if
you've got the very, you got the cent. How are
you this far down the line of running for president,
which he's way down the line of running for president.
He's visited all the swing states, he's been meeting with
all the donors, he's been you know, he launched Prop fifty,
which we're voting on here in a week or whatever.
It is, all this stuff to fight Trump. How does
(01:58):
he not have that sentence?
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Right to go though? The why sentence.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Robert cost on CBS just set him up for the
why sentence.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
You gotta jump got you gotta get the I in
you know why in compress something? You gotta have the y.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yeah, I think we've seen our first inkling of what
we suspected that he's not ready for the big stage
because he should have Barack Obama, Donald Trump like been
able to jump on a tight y immediately. That would
have been played on every news station in America yesterday.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
And today, right, And that was a big swing and
a miss. That's bad political acumen. But our topic, more
specifically is we're trying to get to the bottom of
his weird speaking style where you think he's, you know,
where he's going with a sentence, but he never finishes
the sentence. So michae let's uh do thirty two. He's
on some radio show or something, but trying to figure
(02:52):
out what the hell he's talking about.
Speaker 6 (02:54):
But also, you know, it was also about paying the bills, man,
And it was just like hustling and and so I
was out there kind of raising myself, turning on the
TV started, you know, just getting obsessed, you know, sitting
there with the you know, the wonderbread and five stacks
of you know, like the.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
White come on.
Speaker 7 (03:24):
Every day every day in the backyard, just bouncing the basketball,
throwing the ball against the wall until the ball is
just like fraying, man, And you're that's it, whole thing.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
What?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yeah, Because he didn't say the mac and cheese, somebody
else did, so I don't know what.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I don't even know what he's getting at there. Well,
it lacked context, but there were just quite a few
phrases in there that were like completely unconnected. He didn't
finish the thought. He just he throws phrases out And
is it intent? Is it something wrong with his brain
or is it an intentional tech? Unique for not getting
(04:01):
nailed down in the We're going to Play You Right
Now the clip where he went on the podcast with
the great late Charlie Kirk talking about trans issues. See
how many of his thoughts he actually completes and how
many he just kind of gives a head fake toward
but doesn't finish.
Speaker 8 (04:19):
It's like, you right now should come out and be like,
you know what, the young man who's about to win
the state championship in the long jump in female sports,
that's that that shouldn't happen. You as the governor should
step out and say no, no, And I appreciate, and
but like, would you do something like that, would you
say no men in female sports?
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Well, I think it's an issue of fairness. I completely
agree with you on that. So that's easy to call
out the unfairness of that. There's also a humility and
a grace. You know that these poor people are more
likely to commit suicide, have anxiety and depression, and the
way that people talk down to vulnerable communities is an
issue that I have a hard time with as well.
So both things I can hold in my hand. How
(04:56):
can we address this issue with the kind of decency
that I I think you know it's inherent in you,
but not always expressed.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
So what's your stance? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's uh, it's interesting.
It's hard to nail down his style exactly, but he
just dances around topics until they change. He never says
anything definitive.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
No, that was another opportunity for him, unless he didn't
want to take the opportunity for him to make the
clear statement, which would have been great for I think
getting the Democratic nomination. Actually, no, trans boys should not
be participating in girls' sports or trans girls or whatever
(05:41):
it is. I never can get I don't know how
you're supposed to call it, but yeah, okay, I think
we've nailed it down. He can't just say something. He's
got that two focused, grouped problem that some politicians have.
They don't all have the ones that win generally don't
have it. Trump, Obama, Clinton, they just said they were
(06:03):
they they they knew in their.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Head what they wanted to say and they just said it.
Those people usually win. W was good at that.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
But the people that are thinking, what did the we
did the focus group on this, and when I got
to worry about to see in New Hampshire, thirty percent
of people don't want to you know, they you get
down that road and.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Just so calculated that he can't just speak.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Yeah, that person usually doesn't win. Al Gore, Kamala Harris,
Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Right right, Yeah, well it'll be amusing to watch anyway. Huh.
I wonder if he can get over that, be coached
out of that. Say it, just say it.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
First of all, sit down and figure out what your
positions are. What is your why for running for president?
What what is your position on boys and girls sports?
And when somebody asks you about it, tell.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Them and and it would be so easy to say,
you know all that and some of it was crap
about you know, transgender kids and suicide and the rest
of it. Yeah, you want them to be suicidal and
miserable when they wake up and realize they've ruined their
lives for a ridiculous ideology when they were a teenager.
(07:08):
They've changed their bodies forever. Then they're going to be
really down. But anyway, you couldn't say. Look, a lot
of these people are troubled, sometimes suicidal. They've got a
lot of anxiety and depression. I think we need to
treat everybody with dignity, particularly young people. But no, a
biological male cannot compete in girls' sports. It's just not fair.
(07:30):
How hard is that to say? But he doesn't, He
never says it, speaking of that sort of hypocrisy. I
just love this, the great Nelly Bowls writing in the
Free Press, all those land acknowledgments Jack, Yeah, the progressive
idiots make before every city council meeting and faculty meeting
(07:52):
and sometimes even school classes.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Right, yes, my son, my son had to do it.
Day one of American history class. We are learning this
American history on land that used to belong to the
Forget which Indian group that stole it violently from another
Indian group. It's actually known, right, But you just go
back one.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
In the progressive doctrine, you can't go back too, because
then you would realize how utterly ridiculous and foolish your
philosophy is.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Well, we're doing the armstrong and Getty show in this
studio on the land once owned by some tribe. Actually,
Joe and I actually drove the tribe off the land
for the radio studio.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Get out of here. Got a show to do. Damn
inter looafers. Yeah, we pointed guns at them. They had
bows and arrows, so you want to take this on.
We got guns to go, bows and narrows. They left
the lamb since we built the studio. Absolutely hilarious, shallow,
simple minded gobbledegook these land declarations. But the great Nelly Bowles,
(08:47):
getting back to what she wrote, was Hey, what do
you think decolonization meant vibes or papers?
Speaker 8 (08:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:54):
You think, oh, your land acknowledgements are just for fun.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
No.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Eventually, after years of saying, excuse me that you do
not own the land under your house, that it belongs
to Native American people of blah blah blah tribe, well
the tribe might get ideas and they might win. Certain
property owners in the Canadian city of Richmond, British Columbia
recently got this letter explaining that quote for those whose
property is in the area outlined in black, the court
(09:18):
has declared aboriginal title to your property, which may compromise
the status and validity of your ownership, which was mandated
without any prior notice to the landowners. The entire area
outlined in green has claimed on appeal by the Cowichan
First Nations. So, I Canada is so woke, So I
always wonder what is the point? What do you think
(09:39):
the point is?
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Like, I understand, at the very highest level it's Marxism
and tearing down the system or everything like that. But
that's not what the average dope who says this at
the Rotary club meeting is doing. Where being enlightened. They
think they're being enlightened. And then what am I supposed
to do? Sit there and feel bad for a few moments?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Well right, exactly while they trumpet their virtue. But the
point Nelly's making is in woke woke Canada of course
have said, you know, you have a point, so you
really don't own the land under your house, And Nelly
writes do Berkeley next, Yeah, no kidding, She says, I
once walked by the most gorgeous craftsmen whose owners that
installed the plaque by the sidewalk that acknowledged the house
was on unseated stolen land. It's time to take people
(10:21):
at their word. The land is stolen, the craftsmen must
be redistributed. I am the tribe. We've been following the story.
Blah blah blah blah. The point is, you make that
sort of declaration, you got two choices. You can just
give your property to native people or you know, they
didn't build a house. You figure out, and this is
done for tax purposes, what percentage of the total value
(10:43):
of your house is the house and what percentage is
the land? The value of that land, you need to
take a mortgage out on your house and donate that
amount the value of the land to that tribe if
they still exist.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Otherwise, shut the f up. Do Berkeley next, Do Harvard next?
Since it was founded in like the mid sixteen hundreds
or something like that, you probably wouldn't probably wouldn't be
very hard to figure out exactly who that belonged to
at bad moments.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
But again, not going back.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
One more goes down the college and turn it into
a casino or whatever you think is aproporate.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
I don't know. Yeah, yeah, plow it all down and
plant tobacco again. Yeah, it's just so phony virtue signaling.
I like that phoniness. The next time Sony brings that up,
I need to I will. I will remember that. Okay, Well,
then figure out how much the land is worth and
donate that money to the tribe if you believe it
(11:37):
so strongly.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Or shut up or shut up, which is what I'm
really preferring, right, truth be told.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I'm hoping you shut up self aggrandizing fools.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Anything that's whether it's privilege or the land acknowledgment where
the whole point is for me to sit there and
feel bad for a few minutes. Who's benefiting from this?
I woke up feeling bad. I've been ashamed my whole life.
This is nothing new. You think you got something new
on me. I woke up a shame. Oh I've got
a couple.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
More brief Harvard updates too. What's going on in that
den of progressive iniquity? Cool? All on the way, stay here, armstrong, Engedi.
Speaker 9 (12:19):
The World Series is all tied up a game of piece.
After a dominant pitching performance, the LA Dodgers Yoshu Nobu
Yamamoto tossed his second straight complete game of the postseason,
is the first time anyone's done that in twenty four years.
The Dodgers beat the Blue Jays in Toronto five to one.
The series moves to Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
You know who pitches complete games down the Major League
Baseball nobody ever, and he's done two in a week
in the playoffs. At Yamamoto, that's crazy. It's ridiculous that
they have Shoheo, Tani and Yamamoto on the same team.
But anyway, I liked the cheer that Toronto had, at
least on Friday night when they blew out the Dodgers.
(13:02):
When Watani came up to bat in the ninth inning,
we don't need you clap clap, clap, clap, clap, because
they were second in the running to the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
He almost went to Toronto. Oh wow, that's a good
inside baseball taunt. Orland is ah so a couple of
notes on Havid supposedly the world's greatest university, which has
beclowned itself completely. I thought this was interesting. And Harvard
PhD programs are collapsing amidst amid budget woes, Faculty of
Arts and Sciences just to slash the number of PhD
(13:33):
student admissions by more seventy five percent in the Science
division and sixty percent in the Arts and Humanities division
in the past two years.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
If you how much does the world need more PhDs
in most areas?
Speaker 2 (13:47):
You know? Quoting Nelly Bowls again, the PhD racket has
always been a weird one. These schools pushed their smartest,
most annoyingly ambitious kids to get a PhD. During that PhD,
the guys do all the work of being a paid professor,
teaching courses, great papers, but they're paid next to nothing.
Then the clincher is that at the end there are
no jobs available, maybe one English Department job in Idaho
for a group of three hundred to battle to the
(14:09):
death over. So I support this belt tightening. We will
have about five thousand fewer Antifa soldiers produced each year.
They might even spend their twenties making money. Love that well,
said Nellie. Speaking of Havid, they say they the university
won't say whether they will sanction a dean who defended
rioting and looting is legitimate parts of democracy, described whiteness
(14:32):
as a self described self destructive ideology, celebrated Charlie Kirk's death,
said it was acceptable to wish death on Donald Trump, etc. Etc.
This guy is unbelievable. What's my favorite In the following
the death of George Floyd, he tweeted, rioting and looting
(14:53):
are parts of democracy, just like voting and marching. Wow.
A month before he got his gig last year, he
posted on Instagram that people should love each other and
hate the police, describe whiteness as a self destructive ideology
that annihilates everyone around it, like in Trump da Adolf
Hitler then appeared to celebrate the death of Rush Limbaugh, etc.
(15:14):
Harvard has no comments on it, and the communist himself,
Gregory Davis is his name, said those posts do not
reflect my current thinking or beliefs. One of them was
last year, well, I was a kid Marxist sly, they lie,
and they lie and they lie. And then Fox News
(15:36):
had a panel with conservative Harvard students that was really interesting.
Maybe we could find some of the audio for it.
But they're speaking out about what it's really like on
campus right now, where the university has said, no, we're
going to be fair, but in practice they're not, said
one quote. A good example of this would be like
something like the university is very strict on not co
(15:59):
sponsoring events with outside groups when it comes to the
Republican Club, let's say, putting on events. But the Democrats
get away with that all the time, no questions asked,
and the students described what they believed to be selective
enforcement of various campus rules. Quote. There have been other
things like the Republican Club puts on a big event,
and they send a bunch of administrators to really enforce
(16:20):
fire code rules, making sure the audience is sitting properly
in their seats, whereas Democrats can host events the whole
place could be jammed pack and there's no concern whatsoever,
not the least bit shocking, No, And then they get
into the culture of silence by those who might disagree
with their leftist professors for fear of academic and social reprisal. Quote.
(16:42):
I think most students get the sense that the prudent
thing to do is just sort of tow the line,
both for academic and social reasons. I mean, the grading,
particularly in the social scientists, is sort of subjectively left
up to graduate students or usually the teaching staff. So
usually what students just do is sort of parroting whatever
the professor says for the sake of the grade. Shocking
(17:03):
not to mention the social ostracization. But that's the opposite
of what a university ought to be, polar opposite.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
So are they gonna have a new communist mayor there
in New York City? You're probably saying his name wrong
if you've been saying it at all. We now know
how to say it, among other.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Things coming up Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 10 (17:21):
Free bus who runs in the City of New York
runs it just like we run so many other services.
And the bottom line here is to think about the
free buses again. Free buses has been proven to work
in many parts of the country where it's a get
your list of cities. But the bottom line is it
is something that allows people to.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
That's former Mayor Deblasio, who was the most socialist mayor
they've ever had in New York until Mamdani wins saying
a free buses have worked in lots of cities. Scarboroughs
is where he says, I have to get back to
you on Matt Oh, that's funny.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
That's pretty funny.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
So, uh, Zorron and I've been saying his name wrong.
You're about to learn it from AOC how to say
it properly. Is going to be the mayor and he
had a big campaign rally yesterday and man, the heavy
hitters of the Democratic Party trying to assert the progressive
wing of that party. Mayor New York AOC Bernie Bernard
(18:25):
Sanders all there yesterday. This is what it sounded like,
Governor of New York. Yeah, what I say, Mayor, and
I'm a mayor of a state. What kind of system
that they have there? That's cityonic cat mayors of the state, right,
it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Yeah, so, Governor, and then you'll recognize the other voices.
Speaker 9 (18:43):
Right now, our city and our state and our country
are under attack by Donald Trump and the Republicans in Washington.
Speaker 11 (18:56):
So very forces that Zohron is up against in this
race mirrors what we are up against nationally, both an authoritarian,
criminal presidency fueled by corruption and bigotry.
Speaker 12 (19:13):
Is that people want to know the answer to one
very simple question. Is it possible for ordinary people, for
working class people to come together and defeat those holagouts.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Wow, that's a lot of enthusiasm.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
It is interesting me people in same places like San Francisco, LA,
and New York, particularly San Francisco and New York because
they're so lefty. You live in the most expensive places
in America you can't afford it, move right. I would
have loved to live in New York. I never thought
I could afford it, so I didn't So I didn't
move there. I didn't move there, and wonder, hey, where's
my affordable ho.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Yeah, I know. There's so many notions that were at
the heart of everything that we just heard that are
just wrong. They're just not their fantasies. They've never been true,
they never will be true.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Bernie's act he might outlive me, and he's quite a
bit o. They just feel like he could keep doing that.
He's one hundred and forty and he'll be saying, and
the Oligauts so.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Rude in the country, right, We've got to fight the
oligau Yeah, damn oligarchs, freaking oligarchs everywhere. I look sick.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Can't swing a dead cat without hitting an oligarch. What
was the thing you want to hear?
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Well? Are we going to focus on Zohran first?
Speaker 3 (20:45):
I'll play a AOC saying his name, because I gotta
get that down, that'n zron like Horon. There's an H
in there, Zhran? Where's the H after zoe Haranan? Sohran,
(21:07):
it's like harumph, but harah. Now I've heard his name
said a million times, it's the first time i've heard
it said that way.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah, she just invented that, or she being super authentic
or trying to be or something. I don't know, authentically
you gand Indian Indigandon.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
I just think it's interesting that I've never heard anybody
who say India. I haven't heard anybody say his name
that way. But like I said earlier, I think this
game NPR does it all the time. I think the
game is to make you feel like you're a racist
or something or not sure not culturally sensitive when when
they say it with the weird accent or inflection or
(21:53):
sounds that you don't normally say with, it's just saying you,
we're we're a little better.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Than you, a little more enlightened than you. You're kind
of a cow authentic. We are we order in franch
at French restaurants. You say Zorn, we say Sohan. So
you're a bad person.
Speaker 13 (22:09):
Ron Monadniz.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, okay. And you know, as I've said before, it's
only Latinos. It's only Hispanic names that they do that for,
or like Zohran, you never hear a newscast say, and
then Shan o'klahar walked into a bar or or you know,
Luis Jimman joon. Nobody pronounces it like that because that
(22:36):
would be stupid. But for Hispanics, because they're in a
pressed one order, you gotta go with the authentic sounding
pronunciation that you're so friggin enlightened.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
That would be hilarious if you did that with every
Italian name. Yeah, okay, here's Zohrn himself.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Let our words ring out so loud tonight that Andrew
Cuomo can hear them in his eight thousand dollar a
month apartment. Let them ring so loud so that he
could hear us, even if he's in Westchester this evening.
Let them ring so loud that his puppet master in
(23:16):
the White House hears us.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
So is that New York is not for sale? That's
just the whole Cromo's a Trump or Trump stooge quitteous hilarious.
Ye I know Loomo's taking orders from Trump. I know
it's absolutely hilarious. There is nothing there but adolescent like resistance.
(23:40):
You can't you can't tell me what to do. I
don't have to listen to you. He's in just adolescent
you know, rebellion.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
It's interesting, so Zohran lives in a rent control department,
blasting the other guy for a living in an eight
thousand dollars a month.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Okay, we'll see how that works out. And you know,
it's fun. As we've mentioned that he came from great
Wealth and he's never had a job. Think about that.
He's so rich he doesn't have to work, and he's
preaching socialism. You know, he's an Islamist Marxist. He is
(24:18):
absolutely a Manchurian candidate, somebody who in his heart wants
nothing but the dissolution of the United States. I actually
believe that Zorn Mum, dummy, thank you. I will not
be defending Cuomo. He is a cat, creep and a crook.
That's the problem.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
You know.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I hear him taking shots at Cuomo and I think
I'm with you. All kinds of corrupt. He actually had
his secretaries, those who he hadn't tried to force himself on,
sexually destroying documents to cover up the fact that he
sent old people to the to die of COVID. I mean,
he is as awful as awful can be in terms
(24:59):
of a public figure, and he's the one you're supposed
to be rooting for against the Zoron Zoron.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
It's like he he intentionally thought, all right, what moral
failings are there? I haven't racked up one. That's like
killing the old Let me think what can I do?
What can I do? He's just he's rotten in every way,
every direction you look. He's rotten, and he's running against
a communist Islamist.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
I don't think he's run a puppy mill yet maybe
if he could get that going, he'd check all the boxes.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Yeah, no cruelty to animals. Yet he ought to get
worked and you get to work on that. Speaking of
lefties of uh well, highly questionable leadership capabilities, give me
thirty four, would you? Michael? This is a reporter talking
to the infamous Brandon Johnson of Chicago.
Speaker 12 (25:49):
So he's trying.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Attention to our cologual sources.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Mister leader, that you're supposed to have filed.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
A report on spending on legal aliens in.
Speaker 14 (25:57):
Chicago and the White House by their line, we don't
have illegal aliens. I don't know if that's from some
sort of sci fi message that you wish have had well, listen,
the legal term for my people were slaves. You want
me to use that term too, So look, let's just
get the language right. We're talking about undocumented individuals that
(26:19):
are human beings. The last thing that I'm going to
do is accept the type of racist, nasty language to
describe human beings.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
So yeah, in the laws they use the term illegal aliens,
and so that person used that term.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
And then yes, exactly, you want to use the term
slaves for my people because that was the term at
the time. Well, yes, yeah. In fact, lefties are constantly
bringing up slaves. What are you talking about all I'm belligerent,
I'm resistant. Look at me, I'm confident, and I'm kind
of mad. So follow me because I'm kind of mad.
(26:56):
That's all they've got. The ideas suck.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
I saw the off not funny funny meme on Instagram
the other day of Abraham Lincoln leaving the White House
and then walking by the neighbor guy's house and saying, hey, Jim,
your yard's.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Getting a little out of hand. Yeah. I used to
have a guy for that. Oh oh oh, that's not funny,
not at all. No, the Internet needs higher standard.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
That's what I thought. I think it was from family guy. Yeah,
well almost certainly from family. That rings true stunds.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Like some family guy would have. Oh hey, before before
we end this segment, I was talking about Harvard and
now it's still bullies anybody to the right of Trotsky
I left that one great example of the famed Harvard
Kennedy School School Institute of Politics held a panel just
(27:52):
a couple of days ago Across the Divide organizing to
build the Bridges and Partisan Times. Okay, three speakers on
the panel, all of them Democrats. In fact, there's like
a centrist Democrat, a far left Democrat who's the president
of the notably left wing NAACP, and the former Democratic
(28:16):
mayor of New Orleans, Mitch Landrew. They held on institute
called Across the Divide, Building Bridges and Partisan Times and
invited three lefties to speak. You've got to be kidding me. Wow,
that is unbelievably unself aware. Is that parody? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (28:35):
No kidding, I mean because I could craft that as
a joke, kind of like the joke I used to
have a guy for that, like a crafted it as
a joke.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Not a good joke, no, inappropriate.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
Obviously we will finish strong next.
Speaker 13 (28:56):
For example, turning your phone off and get busy. It's
not like you're going to miss a job offer.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
That's hunny. Wouldn't you like a.
Speaker 13 (29:06):
Tiny friend to watch SpongeBob with? You know, they can
get gold to the kids. Make her scream about something
other than the patriarchy, save the planet, make more people
who recychlized. You know, you know how you plug your
(29:26):
charger into your phone, It's like that.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
That is Bill Martha's List, trying to help young people
have more sex because they aren't having sex anymore or
having kids. It's like the way you plug your your
charger into your phone.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
And I think we need to know the premise before
we heard. Yeah, that's funny.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Trying to remember all the jokes now and the put
your phone away. It's not like you're going to get
a job offer. That's pretty funny. So Nike's got another
new product out. You remember last week I mentioned the
that's like a robot leg. It attaches to your calf
and everything like that. It propels you forward and everything
like that. I just sent a picture to you. Did
(30:07):
I send the picture?
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Maybe I didn't send the pic? Yeah, yeah, okay, So
that's the newest shoe. What the heck is that? Let
me read to you what it says.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
It's designed to help athletes lock in their mindset pre
and post competition. You're a you regularly work out, Katie,
this might be perfect for you. It's the Mind Double
O one and the Mind Double O two. They're the
first neuroscience based footwear from Nike that tap into the
mind body connection. They look like Yeezy's the stuff that
(30:36):
Kanye invented. It's funny how that that weird looking shoe.
Every other shoe company has started making something that looks
like the Kanye shoe.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
But anyway, this is nice hipsters. Yeah yeah, uh.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
The the little nodes on the bottom somehow do something
the mind body connection by activating sensory receptors in the feet.
Oh okay, it helps athletes lock in their mindset. It's
shown to activate key central areas of the brain via
underfoot stimulation, helping ground them in their bodies and bring
(31:10):
them back to the present moment using placebotronics. That last
line is particularly bull as helping ground them in their
bodies and bring them back to the present moment. Okay,
so I got these little nodules under my shoes. Now
that help me live in the present moment more. My
tennis shoes are somehow keeping me mindful.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Wouldn't burning you with a cigarette do the same thing?
Return you to the moment? Oh? What the hell? Ain't
daydreaming anymore? Are you in the moment?
Speaker 3 (31:45):
You think in company like Nike would be able to
make something like this that not have it look stupid?
These shoes are dumb, Well you think they look dumb.
They're very popular the whole. Like I said, Kanye's easy thing.
Every shoe's making something that looks like it, so they
must sell lots of them. I don't see them on
people's feet a lot, but I do see them in
the stores, and there's got to be some reason they're
all making the foam weird looking Kanye yeasy shoe.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Sometimes you see them when a large number of people
emerge from a very small car.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
The interaction between these shoes and your body helps heighten
sensory awareness, which can help us, which can help clear
away distractions and enhance concentration.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Oh it can't face.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
Not distracted anymore, Thank you, this person said. Every step
I take, I think of the shoe and what I
feel in my feet, which is a good thing.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Well, because you're getting chabed with those little weird knobs
hidden like pressure points in your feet. Is that what
it's supposed to be in theory?
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Yeah, specific pressure points that somehow make you more mindful
and live in the moment and lock in your concentration
both before and after.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Want you're a fool with money. I'll tell you what's
gonna happen here.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
So does a slap in the face and burning you
with a cigarette. That'll help you live in the moment.
Remember that moment where I burned you with a cigarette?
That brought you back real quick.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Hey, you're not You're not worried about the future. You're
not dwelling on the past. You probably got to put
a little vactine on there or something. Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
Neosporin exactly. You aren't pondering the future. All you're thinking
is how do I get this guy to stop burning
me with a cigarette?
Speaker 2 (33:27):
God? That hurts. You're in the moment.
Speaker 15 (33:33):
I'm ready.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty. Let's get
a final the final thought from everybody on the COO
to wrap up today, wouldn't that be fun? Michaeligelower, technical director,
will lead us off. Michael final thought, Yeah, I'm kind
of scared back here.
Speaker 6 (33:58):
Actually, for years you had the beating one that you
had threatened me with, and now I'm thinking cigarette burning man.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
So it's moving up. Eh boy, Katie Green are esteemed Newswoman.
As a final thought, Katie, I want to go somewhere
where they have these shoes just to try them on,
just to see. Yep, they're so dumb looking. They're very
dumb looking. Jack final thought for us more on the shoes.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
The new Nike Mind one has twenty two independent foam
nodes per shoe that will that with pistons and gimbals
whatever gimbal is that helps him part the feet with
the texture of the ground directly beneath him.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Wow, it's got pistons end gimbals.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
It heightens sensory awareness, which can clear a way distractions
again and help you live in the moment.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
There you go, that's some shoe. Yeah. My final thought
is one more shot. At Harvard, these students told the
story of Carol Hooven, who was a biology teacher there
for twenty years and was hounded out of the university,
saying the terms male and female are indispensable to science
educators and we need to continue to use them despite
(35:07):
the push to banish those words. Her language branded as
transphobic by the DEI coordinator in the school's department, and
students attacked her and Forster to resign within a year,
having never recovered from the reputational damage done by her comment.
That's our citadel of higher learning, Harvard unfreaking believable. You're
(35:30):
a foam node.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Armstrong and Geddy wrapping up another grueling for our workday.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
It's a kick in the gimbals. All right, let's go right,
So many people who thanks so a little time. Thank
you for being here. Drop by Armstrong in geddy dot
com for the hotlings. Pick up some ang swag. We
got some cool new T shirts for your favorite a
G fan. Christmas is rapidly approaching. Yep.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
Cool, We will see you tomorrow. God bless America.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
I'm strong and get it Just in case you maybe
he's got the anal pain. Wow. Tough to concentrate on
what you're doing when you got the ap no doubt, right,
especially on Monday. You're starting a brand new week.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Right, it's got traffic, and I got a stack of
work on my desk and.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Ap right, it's right hard to keep a smile on
your face. The worst time to have it. It is
the worst time to have Michael Armstrong and Getty
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Arm Strong and Jetty and Key Armstrong and Yetty. So
we're trying to wrestle to the ground.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
What the hell Gavin Newsom was talking about? So he
was asked about running for president? Even that exchange was weird.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
And I don't play that too, And let's start there.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I just why can't he I think we've discovered his
flaw or it's on purpose tactic.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
I'm not exactly sure what.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
So here he is with Robert Costa being asked about
running for president on CBS at thirty three.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Is that right? Yeah, thirty three.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
After the twenty twenty six midterms.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
You're going to give it serious thought. Yeah, I'd be
lying otherwise I just be lying. And I can't do that.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Governor, you have long said that if you ever run
for the White House, you need a compelling why, a reason.
Are you moving closer to figuring out your own why
and your own decision?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:14):
And Heeds just said to you, compelling why you can
endure anyhow, And so I don't think.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I think the biggest challenge for.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
Anyone who runs for any office is people see right
through you.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
If you don't have that why, Well, did you get
to the why or.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:28):
He's kind of building up to it. That was more
comprehensible than usual. But yeah, so it started off the
one sentence with Admyer younger better well.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Following people who run for president, generally it works if
you've got the very, you got the cent. How are
you this far down the line of running for president,
which he's way down the line of running for president.
He's visited all the swing states, he's been meeting with
all the donors, he's been you know, he launched Prop fifty,
which we're voting on here in a week or whatever.
It is, all this stuff to fight Trump. How does
(01:58):
he not have that sentence?
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Right to go though? The why sentence.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Robert cost on CBS just set him up for the
why sentence.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
You gotta jump got you gotta get the I in
you know why in compress something? You gotta have the y.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yeah, I think we've seen our first inkling of what
we suspected that he's not ready for the big stage
because he should have Barack Obama, Donald Trump like been
able to jump on a tight y immediately. That would
have been played on every news station in America yesterday.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
And today, right, And that was a big swing and
a miss. That's bad political acumen. But our topic, more
specifically is we're trying to get to the bottom of
his weird speaking style where you think he's, you know,
where he's going with a sentence, but he never finishes
the sentence. So michae let's uh do thirty two. He's
on some radio show or something, but trying to figure
(02:52):
out what the hell he's talking about.
Speaker 6 (02:54):
But also, you know, it was also about paying the bills, man,
And it was just like hustling and and so I
was out there kind of raising myself, turning on the
TV started, you know, just getting obsessed, you know, sitting
there with the you know, the wonderbread and five stacks
of you know, like the.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
White come on.
Speaker 7 (03:24):
Every day every day in the backyard, just bouncing the basketball,
throwing the ball against the wall until the ball is
just like fraying, man, And you're that's it, whole thing.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
What?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yeah, Because he didn't say the mac and cheese, somebody
else did, so I don't know what.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I don't even know what he's getting at there. Well,
it lacked context, but there were just quite a few
phrases in there that were like completely unconnected. He didn't
finish the thought. He just he throws phrases out And
is it intent? Is it something wrong with his brain
or is it an intentional tech? Unique for not getting
(04:01):
nailed down in the We're going to Play You Right
Now the clip where he went on the podcast with
the great late Charlie Kirk talking about trans issues. See
how many of his thoughts he actually completes and how
many he just kind of gives a head fake toward
but doesn't finish.
Speaker 8 (04:19):
It's like, you right now should come out and be like,
you know what, the young man who's about to win
the state championship in the long jump in female sports,
that's that that shouldn't happen. You as the governor should
step out and say no, no, And I appreciate, and
but like, would you do something like that, would you
say no men in female sports?
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Well, I think it's an issue of fairness. I completely
agree with you on that. So that's easy to call
out the unfairness of that. There's also a humility and
a grace. You know that these poor people are more
likely to commit suicide, have anxiety and depression, and the
way that people talk down to vulnerable communities is an
issue that I have a hard time with as well.
So both things I can hold in my hand. How
(04:56):
can we address this issue with the kind of decency
that I I think you know it's inherent in you,
but not always expressed.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
So what's your stance? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's uh, it's interesting.
It's hard to nail down his style exactly, but he
just dances around topics until they change. He never says
anything definitive.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
No, that was another opportunity for him, unless he didn't
want to take the opportunity for him to make the
clear statement, which would have been great for I think
getting the Democratic nomination. Actually, no, trans boys should not
be participating in girls' sports or trans girls or whatever
(05:41):
it is. I never can get I don't know how
you're supposed to call it, but yeah, okay, I think
we've nailed it down. He can't just say something. He's
got that two focused, grouped problem that some politicians have.
They don't all have the ones that win generally don't
have it. Trump, Obama, Clinton, they just said they were
(06:03):
they they they knew in their.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Head what they wanted to say and they just said it.
Those people usually win. W was good at that.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
But the people that are thinking, what did the we
did the focus group on this, and when I got
to worry about to see in New Hampshire, thirty percent
of people don't want to you know, they you get
down that road and.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Just so calculated that he can't just speak.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Yeah, that person usually doesn't win. Al Gore, Kamala Harris,
Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Right right, Yeah, well it'll be amusing to watch anyway. Huh.
I wonder if he can get over that, be coached
out of that. Say it, just say it.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
First of all, sit down and figure out what your
positions are. What is your why for running for president?
What what is your position on boys and girls sports?
And when somebody asks you about it, tell.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Them and and it would be so easy to say,
you know all that and some of it was crap
about you know, transgender kids and suicide and the rest
of it. Yeah, you want them to be suicidal and
miserable when they wake up and realize they've ruined their
lives for a ridiculous ideology when they were a teenager.
(07:08):
They've changed their bodies forever. Then they're going to be
really down. But anyway, you couldn't say. Look, a lot
of these people are troubled, sometimes suicidal. They've got a
lot of anxiety and depression. I think we need to
treat everybody with dignity, particularly young people. But no, a
biological male cannot compete in girls' sports. It's just not fair.
(07:30):
How hard is that to say? But he doesn't, He
never says it, speaking of that sort of hypocrisy. I
just love this, the great Nelly Bowls writing in the
Free Press, all those land acknowledgments Jack, Yeah, the progressive
idiots make before every city council meeting and faculty meeting
(07:52):
and sometimes even school classes.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Right, yes, my son, my son had to do it.
Day one of American history class. We are learning this
American history on land that used to belong to the
Forget which Indian group that stole it violently from another
Indian group. It's actually known, right, But you just go
back one.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
In the progressive doctrine, you can't go back too, because
then you would realize how utterly ridiculous and foolish your
philosophy is.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Well, we're doing the armstrong and Getty show in this
studio on the land once owned by some tribe. Actually,
Joe and I actually drove the tribe off the land
for the radio studio.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Get out of here. Got a show to do. Damn
inter looafers. Yeah, we pointed guns at them. They had
bows and arrows, so you want to take this on.
We got guns to go, bows and narrows. They left
the lamb since we built the studio. Absolutely hilarious, shallow,
simple minded gobbledegook these land declarations. But the great Nelly Bowles,
(08:47):
getting back to what she wrote, was Hey, what do
you think decolonization meant vibes or papers?
Speaker 8 (08:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:54):
You think, oh, your land acknowledgements are just for fun.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
No.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Eventually, after years of saying, excuse me that you do
not own the land under your house, that it belongs
to Native American people of blah blah blah tribe, well
the tribe might get ideas and they might win. Certain
property owners in the Canadian city of Richmond, British Columbia
recently got this letter explaining that quote for those whose
property is in the area outlined in black, the court
(09:18):
has declared aboriginal title to your property, which may compromise
the status and validity of your ownership, which was mandated
without any prior notice to the landowners. The entire area
outlined in green has claimed on appeal by the Cowichan
First Nations. So, I Canada is so woke, So I
always wonder what is the point? What do you think
(09:39):
the point is?
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Like, I understand, at the very highest level it's Marxism
and tearing down the system or everything like that. But
that's not what the average dope who says this at
the Rotary club meeting is doing. Where being enlightened. They
think they're being enlightened. And then what am I supposed
to do? Sit there and feel bad for a few moments?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Well right, exactly while they trumpet their virtue. But the
point Nelly's making is in woke woke Canada of course
have said, you know, you have a point, so you
really don't own the land under your house, And Nelly
writes do Berkeley next, Yeah, no kidding, She says, I
once walked by the most gorgeous craftsmen whose owners that
installed the plaque by the sidewalk that acknowledged the house
was on unseated stolen land. It's time to take people
(10:21):
at their word. The land is stolen, the craftsmen must
be redistributed. I am the tribe. We've been following the story.
Blah blah blah blah. The point is, you make that
sort of declaration, you got two choices. You can just
give your property to native people or you know, they
didn't build a house. You figure out, and this is
done for tax purposes, what percentage of the total value
(10:43):
of your house is the house and what percentage is
the land? The value of that land, you need to
take a mortgage out on your house and donate that
amount the value of the land to that tribe if
they still exist.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Otherwise, shut the f up. Do Berkeley next, Do Harvard next?
Since it was founded in like the mid sixteen hundreds
or something like that, you probably wouldn't probably wouldn't be
very hard to figure out exactly who that belonged to
at bad moments.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
But again, not going back.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
One more goes down the college and turn it into
a casino or whatever you think is aproporate.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
I don't know. Yeah, yeah, plow it all down and
plant tobacco again. Yeah, it's just so phony virtue signaling.
I like that phoniness. The next time Sony brings that up,
I need to I will. I will remember that. Okay, Well,
then figure out how much the land is worth and
donate that money to the tribe if you believe it
(11:37):
so strongly.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Or shut up or shut up, which is what I'm
really preferring, right, truth be told.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I'm hoping you shut up self aggrandizing fools.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Anything that's whether it's privilege or the land acknowledgment where
the whole point is for me to sit there and
feel bad for a few minutes. Who's benefiting from this?
I woke up feeling bad. I've been ashamed my whole life.
This is nothing new. You think you got something new
on me. I woke up a shame. Oh I've got
a couple.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
More brief Harvard updates too. What's going on in that
den of progressive iniquity? Cool? All on the way, stay here, armstrong, Engedi.
Speaker 9 (12:19):
The World Series is all tied up a game of piece.
After a dominant pitching performance, the LA Dodgers Yoshu Nobu
Yamamoto tossed his second straight complete game of the postseason,
is the first time anyone's done that in twenty four years.
The Dodgers beat the Blue Jays in Toronto five to one.
The series moves to Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
You know who pitches complete games down the Major League
Baseball nobody ever, and he's done two in a week
in the playoffs. At Yamamoto, that's crazy. It's ridiculous that
they have Shoheo, Tani and Yamamoto on the same team.
But anyway, I liked the cheer that Toronto had, at
least on Friday night when they blew out the Dodgers.
(13:02):
When Watani came up to bat in the ninth inning,
we don't need you clap clap, clap, clap, clap, because
they were second in the running to the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
He almost went to Toronto. Oh wow, that's a good
inside baseball taunt. Orland is ah so a couple of
notes on Havid supposedly the world's greatest university, which has
beclowned itself completely. I thought this was interesting. And Harvard
PhD programs are collapsing amidst amid budget woes, Faculty of
Arts and Sciences just to slash the number of PhD
(13:33):
student admissions by more seventy five percent in the Science
division and sixty percent in the Arts and Humanities division
in the past two years.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
If you how much does the world need more PhDs
in most areas?
Speaker 2 (13:47):
You know? Quoting Nelly Bowls again, the PhD racket has
always been a weird one. These schools pushed their smartest,
most annoyingly ambitious kids to get a PhD. During that PhD,
the guys do all the work of being a paid professor,
teaching courses, great papers, but they're paid next to nothing.
Then the clincher is that at the end there are
no jobs available, maybe one English Department job in Idaho
for a group of three hundred to battle to the
(14:09):
death over. So I support this belt tightening. We will
have about five thousand fewer Antifa soldiers produced each year.
They might even spend their twenties making money. Love that well,
said Nellie. Speaking of Havid, they say they the university
won't say whether they will sanction a dean who defended
rioting and looting is legitimate parts of democracy, described whiteness
(14:32):
as a self described self destructive ideology, celebrated Charlie Kirk's death,
said it was acceptable to wish death on Donald Trump, etc. Etc.
This guy is unbelievable. What's my favorite In the following
the death of George Floyd, he tweeted, rioting and looting
(14:53):
are parts of democracy, just like voting and marching. Wow.
A month before he got his gig last year, he
posted on Instagram that people should love each other and
hate the police, describe whiteness as a self destructive ideology
that annihilates everyone around it, like in Trump da Adolf
Hitler then appeared to celebrate the death of Rush Limbaugh, etc.
(15:14):
Harvard has no comments on it, and the communist himself,
Gregory Davis is his name, said those posts do not
reflect my current thinking or beliefs. One of them was
last year, well, I was a kid Marxist sly, they lie,
and they lie and they lie. And then Fox News
(15:36):
had a panel with conservative Harvard students that was really interesting.
Maybe we could find some of the audio for it.
But they're speaking out about what it's really like on
campus right now, where the university has said, no, we're
going to be fair, but in practice they're not, said
one quote. A good example of this would be like
something like the university is very strict on not co
(15:59):
sponsoring events with outside groups when it comes to the
Republican Club, let's say, putting on events. But the Democrats
get away with that all the time, no questions asked,
and the students described what they believed to be selective
enforcement of various campus rules. Quote. There have been other
things like the Republican Club puts on a big event,
and they send a bunch of administrators to really enforce
(16:20):
fire code rules, making sure the audience is sitting properly
in their seats, whereas Democrats can host events the whole
place could be jammed pack and there's no concern whatsoever,
not the least bit shocking, No, And then they get
into the culture of silence by those who might disagree
with their leftist professors for fear of academic and social reprisal. Quote.
(16:42):
I think most students get the sense that the prudent
thing to do is just sort of tow the line,
both for academic and social reasons. I mean, the grading,
particularly in the social scientists, is sort of subjectively left
up to graduate students or usually the teaching staff. So
usually what students just do is sort of parroting whatever
the professor says for the sake of the grade. Shocking
(17:03):
not to mention the social ostracization. But that's the opposite
of what a university ought to be, polar opposite.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
So are they gonna have a new communist mayor there
in New York City? You're probably saying his name wrong
if you've been saying it at all. We now know
how to say it, among other.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Things coming up Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 10 (17:21):
Free bus who runs in the City of New York
runs it just like we run so many other services.
And the bottom line here is to think about the
free buses again. Free buses has been proven to work
in many parts of the country where it's a get
your list of cities. But the bottom line is it
is something that allows people to.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
That's former Mayor Deblasio, who was the most socialist mayor
they've ever had in New York until Mamdani wins saying
a free buses have worked in lots of cities. Scarboroughs
is where he says, I have to get back to
you on Matt Oh, that's funny.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
That's pretty funny.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
So, uh, Zorron and I've been saying his name wrong.
You're about to learn it from AOC how to say
it properly. Is going to be the mayor and he
had a big campaign rally yesterday and man, the heavy
hitters of the Democratic Party trying to assert the progressive
wing of that party. Mayor New York AOC Bernie Bernard
(18:25):
Sanders all there yesterday. This is what it sounded like,
Governor of New York. Yeah, what I say, Mayor, and
I'm a mayor of a state. What kind of system
that they have there? That's cityonic cat mayors of the state, right,
it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Yeah, so, Governor, and then you'll recognize the other voices.
Speaker 9 (18:43):
Right now, our city and our state and our country
are under attack by Donald Trump and the Republicans in Washington.
Speaker 11 (18:56):
So very forces that Zohron is up against in this
race mirrors what we are up against nationally, both an authoritarian,
criminal presidency fueled by corruption and bigotry.
Speaker 12 (19:13):
Is that people want to know the answer to one
very simple question. Is it possible for ordinary people, for
working class people to come together and defeat those holagouts.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Wow, that's a lot of enthusiasm.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
It is interesting me people in same places like San Francisco, LA,
and New York, particularly San Francisco and New York because
they're so lefty. You live in the most expensive places
in America you can't afford it, move right. I would
have loved to live in New York. I never thought
I could afford it, so I didn't So I didn't
move there. I didn't move there, and wonder, hey, where's
my affordable ho.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Yeah, I know. There's so many notions that were at
the heart of everything that we just heard that are
just wrong. They're just not their fantasies. They've never been true,
they never will be true.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Bernie's act he might outlive me, and he's quite a
bit o. They just feel like he could keep doing that.
He's one hundred and forty and he'll be saying, and
the Oligauts so.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Rude in the country, right, We've got to fight the
oligau Yeah, damn oligarchs, freaking oligarchs everywhere. I look sick.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Can't swing a dead cat without hitting an oligarch. What
was the thing you want to hear?
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Well? Are we going to focus on Zohran first?
Speaker 3 (20:45):
I'll play a AOC saying his name, because I gotta
get that down, that'n zron like Horon. There's an H
in there, Zhran? Where's the H after zoe Haranan? Sohran,
(21:07):
it's like harumph, but harah. Now I've heard his name
said a million times, it's the first time i've heard
it said that way.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah, she just invented that, or she being super authentic
or trying to be or something. I don't know, authentically
you gand Indian Indigandon.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
I just think it's interesting that I've never heard anybody
who say India. I haven't heard anybody say his name
that way. But like I said earlier, I think this
game NPR does it all the time. I think the
game is to make you feel like you're a racist
or something or not sure not culturally sensitive when when
they say it with the weird accent or inflection or
(21:53):
sounds that you don't normally say with, it's just saying you,
we're we're a little better.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Than you, a little more enlightened than you. You're kind
of a cow authentic. We are we order in franch
at French restaurants. You say Zorn, we say Sohan. So
you're a bad person.
Speaker 13 (22:09):
Ron Monadniz.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, okay. And you know, as I've said before, it's
only Latinos. It's only Hispanic names that they do that for,
or like Zohran, you never hear a newscast say, and
then Shan o'klahar walked into a bar or or you know,
Luis Jimman joon. Nobody pronounces it like that because that
(22:36):
would be stupid. But for Hispanics, because they're in a
pressed one order, you gotta go with the authentic sounding
pronunciation that you're so friggin enlightened.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
That would be hilarious if you did that with every
Italian name. Yeah, okay, here's Zohrn himself.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Let our words ring out so loud tonight that Andrew
Cuomo can hear them in his eight thousand dollar a
month apartment. Let them ring so loud so that he
could hear us, even if he's in Westchester this evening.
Let them ring so loud that his puppet master in
(23:16):
the White House hears us.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
So is that New York is not for sale? That's
just the whole Cromo's a Trump or Trump stooge quitteous hilarious.
Ye I know Loomo's taking orders from Trump. I know
it's absolutely hilarious. There is nothing there but adolescent like resistance.
(23:40):
You can't you can't tell me what to do. I
don't have to listen to you. He's in just adolescent
you know, rebellion.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
It's interesting, so Zohran lives in a rent control department,
blasting the other guy for a living in an eight
thousand dollars a month.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Okay, we'll see how that works out. And you know,
it's fun. As we've mentioned that he came from great
Wealth and he's never had a job. Think about that.
He's so rich he doesn't have to work, and he's
preaching socialism. You know, he's an Islamist Marxist. He is
(24:18):
absolutely a Manchurian candidate, somebody who in his heart wants
nothing but the dissolution of the United States. I actually
believe that Zorn Mum, dummy, thank you. I will not
be defending Cuomo. He is a cat, creep and a crook.
That's the problem.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
You know.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I hear him taking shots at Cuomo and I think
I'm with you. All kinds of corrupt. He actually had
his secretaries, those who he hadn't tried to force himself on,
sexually destroying documents to cover up the fact that he
sent old people to the to die of COVID. I mean,
he is as awful as awful can be in terms
(24:59):
of a public figure, and he's the one you're supposed
to be rooting for against the Zoron Zoron.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
It's like he he intentionally thought, all right, what moral
failings are there? I haven't racked up one. That's like
killing the old Let me think what can I do?
What can I do? He's just he's rotten in every way,
every direction you look. He's rotten, and he's running against
a communist Islamist.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
I don't think he's run a puppy mill yet maybe
if he could get that going, he'd check all the boxes.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
Yeah, no cruelty to animals. Yet he ought to get
worked and you get to work on that. Speaking of
lefties of uh well, highly questionable leadership capabilities, give me
thirty four, would you? Michael? This is a reporter talking
to the infamous Brandon Johnson of Chicago.
Speaker 12 (25:49):
So he's trying.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Attention to our cologual sources.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Mister leader, that you're supposed to have filed.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
A report on spending on legal aliens in.
Speaker 14 (25:57):
Chicago and the White House by their line, we don't
have illegal aliens. I don't know if that's from some
sort of sci fi message that you wish have had well, listen,
the legal term for my people were slaves. You want
me to use that term too, So look, let's just
get the language right. We're talking about undocumented individuals that
(26:19):
are human beings. The last thing that I'm going to
do is accept the type of racist, nasty language to
describe human beings.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
So yeah, in the laws they use the term illegal aliens,
and so that person used that term.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
And then yes, exactly, you want to use the term
slaves for my people because that was the term at
the time. Well, yes, yeah. In fact, lefties are constantly
bringing up slaves. What are you talking about all I'm belligerent,
I'm resistant. Look at me, I'm confident, and I'm kind
of mad. So follow me because I'm kind of mad.
(26:56):
That's all they've got. The ideas suck.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
I saw the off not funny funny meme on Instagram
the other day of Abraham Lincoln leaving the White House
and then walking by the neighbor guy's house and saying, hey, Jim,
your yard's.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Getting a little out of hand. Yeah. I used to
have a guy for that. Oh oh oh, that's not funny,
not at all. No, the Internet needs higher standard.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
That's what I thought. I think it was from family guy. Yeah,
well almost certainly from family. That rings true stunds.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Like some family guy would have. Oh hey, before before
we end this segment, I was talking about Harvard and
now it's still bullies anybody to the right of Trotsky
I left that one great example of the famed Harvard
Kennedy School School Institute of Politics held a panel just
(27:52):
a couple of days ago Across the Divide organizing to
build the Bridges and Partisan Times. Okay, three speakers on
the panel, all of them Democrats. In fact, there's like
a centrist Democrat, a far left Democrat who's the president
of the notably left wing NAACP, and the former Democratic
(28:16):
mayor of New Orleans, Mitch Landrew. They held on institute
called Across the Divide, Building Bridges and Partisan Times and
invited three lefties to speak. You've got to be kidding me. Wow,
that is unbelievably unself aware. Is that parody? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (28:35):
No kidding, I mean because I could craft that as
a joke, kind of like the joke I used to
have a guy for that, like a crafted it as
a joke.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Not a good joke, no, inappropriate.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
Obviously we will finish strong next.
Speaker 13 (28:56):
For example, turning your phone off and get busy. It's
not like you're going to miss a job offer.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
That's hunny. Wouldn't you like a.
Speaker 13 (29:06):
Tiny friend to watch SpongeBob with? You know, they can
get gold to the kids. Make her scream about something
other than the patriarchy, save the planet, make more people
who recychlized. You know, you know how you plug your
(29:26):
charger into your phone, It's like that.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
That is Bill Martha's List, trying to help young people
have more sex because they aren't having sex anymore or
having kids. It's like the way you plug your your
charger into your phone.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
And I think we need to know the premise before
we heard. Yeah, that's funny.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Trying to remember all the jokes now and the put
your phone away. It's not like you're going to get
a job offer. That's pretty funny. So Nike's got another
new product out. You remember last week I mentioned the
that's like a robot leg. It attaches to your calf
and everything like that. It propels you forward and everything
like that. I just sent a picture to you. Did
(30:07):
I send the picture?
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Maybe I didn't send the pic? Yeah, yeah, okay, So
that's the newest shoe. What the heck is that? Let
me read to you what it says.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
It's designed to help athletes lock in their mindset pre
and post competition. You're a you regularly work out, Katie,
this might be perfect for you. It's the Mind Double
O one and the Mind Double O two. They're the
first neuroscience based footwear from Nike that tap into the
mind body connection. They look like Yeezy's the stuff that
(30:36):
Kanye invented. It's funny how that that weird looking shoe.
Every other shoe company has started making something that looks
like the Kanye shoe.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
But anyway, this is nice hipsters. Yeah yeah, uh.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
The the little nodes on the bottom somehow do something
the mind body connection by activating sensory receptors in the feet.
Oh okay, it helps athletes lock in their mindset. It's
shown to activate key central areas of the brain via
underfoot stimulation, helping ground them in their bodies and bring
(31:10):
them back to the present moment using placebotronics. That last
line is particularly bull as helping ground them in their
bodies and bring them back to the present moment. Okay,
so I got these little nodules under my shoes. Now
that help me live in the present moment more. My
tennis shoes are somehow keeping me mindful.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
Wouldn't burning you with a cigarette do the same thing?
Return you to the moment? Oh? What the hell? Ain't
daydreaming anymore? Are you in the moment?
Speaker 3 (31:45):
You think in company like Nike would be able to
make something like this that not have it look stupid?
These shoes are dumb, Well you think they look dumb.
They're very popular the whole. Like I said, Kanye's easy thing.
Every shoe's making something that looks like it, so they
must sell lots of them. I don't see them on
people's feet a lot, but I do see them in
the stores, and there's got to be some reason they're
all making the foam weird looking Kanye yeasy shoe.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Sometimes you see them when a large number of people
emerge from a very small car.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
The interaction between these shoes and your body helps heighten
sensory awareness, which can help us, which can help clear
away distractions and enhance concentration.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Oh it can't face.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
Not distracted anymore, Thank you, this person said. Every step
I take, I think of the shoe and what I
feel in my feet, which is a good thing.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
Well, because you're getting chabed with those little weird knobs
hidden like pressure points in your feet. Is that what
it's supposed to be in theory?
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Yeah, specific pressure points that somehow make you more mindful
and live in the moment and lock in your concentration
both before and after.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Want you're a fool with money. I'll tell you what's
gonna happen here.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
So does a slap in the face and burning you
with a cigarette. That'll help you live in the moment.
Remember that moment where I burned you with a cigarette?
That brought you back real quick.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Hey, you're not You're not worried about the future. You're
not dwelling on the past. You probably got to put
a little vactine on there or something. Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
Neosporin exactly. You aren't pondering the future. All you're thinking
is how do I get this guy to stop burning
me with a cigarette?
Speaker 2 (33:27):
God? That hurts. You're in the moment.
Speaker 15 (33:33):
I'm ready.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty. Let's get
a final the final thought from everybody on the COO
to wrap up today, wouldn't that be fun? Michaeligelower, technical director,
will lead us off. Michael final thought, Yeah, I'm kind
of scared back here.
Speaker 6 (33:58):
Actually, for years you had the beating one that you
had threatened me with, and now I'm thinking cigarette burning man.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
So it's moving up. Eh boy, Katie Green are esteemed Newswoman.
As a final thought, Katie, I want to go somewhere
where they have these shoes just to try them on,
just to see. Yep, they're so dumb looking. They're very
dumb looking. Jack final thought for us more on the shoes.
Speaker 3 (34:22):
The new Nike Mind one has twenty two independent foam
nodes per shoe that will that with pistons and gimbals
whatever gimbal is that helps him part the feet with
the texture of the ground directly beneath him.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Wow, it's got pistons end gimbals.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
It heightens sensory awareness, which can clear a way distractions
again and help you live in the moment.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
There you go, that's some shoe. Yeah. My final thought
is one more shot. At Harvard, these students told the
story of Carol Hooven, who was a biology teacher there
for twenty years and was hounded out of the university,
saying the terms male and female are indispensable to science
educators and we need to continue to use them despite
(35:07):
the push to banish those words. Her language branded as
transphobic by the DEI coordinator in the school's department, and
students attacked her and Forster to resign within a year,
having never recovered from the reputational damage done by her comment.
That's our citadel of higher learning, Harvard unfreaking believable. You're
(35:30):
a foam node.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
Armstrong and Geddy wrapping up another grueling for our workday.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
It's a kick in the gimbals. All right, let's go right,
So many people who thanks so a little time. Thank
you for being here. Drop by Armstrong in geddy dot
com for the hotlings. Pick up some ang swag. We
got some cool new T shirts for your favorite a
G fan. Christmas is rapidly approaching. Yep.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
Cool, We will see you tomorrow. God bless America.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
I'm strong and get it Just in case you maybe
he's got the anal pain. Wow. Tough to concentrate on
what you're doing when you got the ap no doubt, right,
especially on Monday. You're starting a brand new week.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Right, it's got traffic, and I got a stack of
work on my desk and.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Ap right, it's right hard to keep a smile on
your face. The worst time to have it. It is
the worst time to have Michael Armstrong and Getty
