Speaker 1 (00:01):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong
and Getty and now he Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
An alleged Halloween terror attack foiled FBI agents yelling in Arabic.
This is the FBI warning residents of this home that
they have a warrant and to come out. Video showing
the agents using flashbanks then storming into the house in Dearborn, Michigan,
five young individuals were taken into custody involving a plot
to conduct an attack in the US that has a
(00:45):
connection to ISIS. The suspects are naturalized citizens from a
Middle Eastern country who had access to firearms and firearm training.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Well, that's horrifying.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
I don't know how close that was to reaching its conclusion,
but God the FBI was able to stop it. We
do not need an Islamist terrorist attack in the United
States to further get us all worked up.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
So before we go any further with that, do we
have any more details on that stabbing situation on the
train in London over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
No.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
Originally, originally it was two men stabbed a whole bunch
of people, and then the internet Twitter went wild with
it being.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
You know, Islamic something or other. But then since then
it's only one person arrested is a British national. I
don't know anything about the person.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
But in Great Britain and Europe in general, they had
they go out of their way to hide that sort
of thing, which they.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Ought to a horrendous extent.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Yeah, which they ought to stop doing because it makes
people like me more suspicious, not less of what's going
on here.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Right.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
It's so annoying because the authorities systematically cover up involvement
of Islamists and Islamic people to avoid the backlash, and
we all fear, and so the internet goes wild in
the other direction.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Yeah, exactly. So, Yeah, it's doing more harm than good.
So I don't know what happened there. And then you
got an is Lomist, well, Muslim adjacent is Lomist adjacent.
Maybe that'd be fair to say, Mom, Donnie's going to
become get elected mayor in New York tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
I think he's an out He's an out and out Islamist. Yeah,
I do. And here's why. Unless he is just so
young and fuzzy headed that he himself hasn't connected the dots,
and you know it's it's funny. I shouldn't grant him
that benefit of the doubt. I just happened to come across, uh,
(02:45):
And I don't want to get off because it's a tangent.
But a young celebrity, you donated a tremendous amount of
money to these completely fuzzy headed, illogical causes. But it's
just childlike in her understand the world. And I guess
it's possible that this guy, raised by academics and filmmakers
(03:06):
just has a fanciful understanding of the world.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
But if somebody like that kills you, every bit is dead.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
It's funny. Somebody sent me a New Yorker cartoon over
the weekend. They were applying this to Gavin Newsom, but
it applies to Zorn also.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
The New Yorker cartoon was they're presenting this pitch for
a show. It's sort of a popular, attractive kid from
a well to doced, stable family succeeds against all odd story.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
That is what Zorn and Gavin both are rich, rich,
good looking, connected people succeed against all odds.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Oh I love that. So anyway, back to my main point.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Part of the reason I believe that is because he admitted,
well proudly he stated at the Democratic Socialists of America
convention that he came to politics through the Palestinian cause.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
That's why he's involved in all this.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
And I think he is intelligent enough to understand and know,
probably historically, how Marxists and Islamists have worked together to
overthrow the status quo in non Islamist countries, and then
the Islamists, because generally speaking they're much more brutal and unified,
they win over the Marxists see Iran. Anyway, I was
(04:24):
reading this profile of the leader of the Huthis, whose
name is abdulah Malik al Huthi, who's survived relentless attacks
by Israel. He's seen in the Arab world in the
eyes of a lot of supporters, is the last militant
leader still fighting in the Middle East.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
His last name is Hufi. I've never known what Huthi meant,
so it's a family name.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Uh yeah, I think so that's his nom de guerre.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
I don't know if that's his real name, but I
think the movement is named after him. Anyway, He has said,
and here's the connection to Mamdani. Okay Mamdani who said
he came to politics through the Palestinian cause. Al Huthi
says he'll respect any truths it's truth signed by his
Palestinian allies Hamas.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
But whatever the outcome, the Huthis are.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Expected to continue their religious war against Israel in the
US over time. The group's slogan chanted at rallies. This
is their slogan now, not e pluribus union or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Is God is great.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Death to America, death to Israel, cursed the Jews.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Victory to Islam. How do you sign a peace treaty
with that guy?
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Death to America, Death Israel, curse the Jews, victory to Islam.
God is great. They have one purpose that's to Islamize
the planet. Period.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I'll be interesting to see what Mamdani says tomorrow night
in his victory speech and in the coming days, if
he's going to try to be you know, I'm a
mayor to all people, people who voted for me and
people have voted against me, or if he's going to double
down on some of his earlier rhetic rhetoric from earlier
in his life, which is you know, fairly recent since
he's only thirty four years old.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
In a related story, a top Katari official who served
as ambassa ambassador to the US has repeatedly praised slain
Hamas leaders as martyrs, called on the terror group to
pursue resistance until victory, and denounced Israel as the enemy
of humanity. Ray has repeatedly used his ex account to
glorify Hamas in vilify Israel. This is a Katari leader
(06:37):
who is ambassador to the US.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Well, Trump threatening to send US troops to Nigeria over
the weekend because of the slaughtering of Christians right by
fundamentalist Islamist nut jobs.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Meanwhile in Nigeria, oh, I'm sorry. In America, in New York, specifically,
pro Hamas activists Abdullah Akl and Mohammed Badaway have called
to quote strike Tel Aviv and destroy the illegitimate Zionist
occupiers and all of their supporters. They're now launching an
initiative to form student chapters in dozens of New York
City public high schools. Akeel, an advocacy director with the
(07:16):
Muslim American Society Youth Center in Brooklyn, recently announced the
group's MAS in Schools initiative, which aims to create prayer
spaces and host Islamic events at fifty New York high schools.
The group will partner for the first time ever with
Students for Justice in Palestine and the radical organization that
earlier this month called for death to all collaborators of
Israel to do so, and now they are trying to
(07:39):
organize in New York City schools. If you don't think
Islamism is on the march in the United States and Europe,
which is way down that road, you are a fool
or a coward who's been bullied by talk of Islamophobia, etc.
It is one of the great challenges this country faced,
and I'm glad that more and more people are recognizing it,
(07:59):
but not nearly enough. These people are hardcore end democracy,
install sharia law and they're organizing clubs in fifty high schools.
And oh, by the way, Students for justin in Palestine
Palestine has three hundred and fifty chapters at universities across
North America.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
You know what I'm not good at is knowing how
big various countries are that aren't well, that are in Africa,
generally Nigeria, is a country of two hundred and thirty
million people.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
I had no idea.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Yesn't it's the population of what the United States was,
you know, fifty twenty years ago.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
It's in your top five or six countries on Earth,
isn't it. Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Anyway, Trump put out a truth social post over the weekend.
I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare
for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast,
vicious and sweet, just like the terrorised thugs attack our
cherished Christians. Fast, vicious and sweet is an odd phrase anyway,
military action in a country of two hundred and thirty
(09:07):
million people, And I don't know where that fits in
with the whole America first, no more, forever. War's mine
in our own business thing, because.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
You got the competing notion of protecting Christians around the
world right as far as Magga goes.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
But at some point we probably ought to spend a
little time. Maybe when we have time to do an
extended look at it. I reread ion Hersey Ali's brilliant essay.
If you don't know her, she was a former Muslim
immigrant to her Land or Britain. Actually, she is married
to the absolutely brilliant historian Neil Ferguson, and she is
(09:49):
one of the most brilliant persuasive writers on the topic
of Islamism on Earth, and she relates some of the
subversion subverting of US society to the Soviet techniques. And
a lot of you are familiar because you email us
like twice a week of Yuri was it Jury Besmanov,
the KGB agent who did that sit down interview back
(10:12):
in nineteen eighty three about psychological warfare, subversion and the
control of society. It's absolutely brilliant, and miss Ali relates
Islamism to those techniques and it's absolutely incredibly revealing. We'll
figure out when we want to unleash that and do
it at some point.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
So we want to mention this.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
This Thursday is the annual Warrior Foundation Freedom Station Givethon.
Twenty one years, Warrior Foundation Freedom Station has been serving
our ill and injured warriors and the givethon is a
chance to fly them home for the holidays, because everyone
deserves to be with loved ones, especially those who sacrifice
so much for our country. Your tax deductible donation is
more than a gift. It's a powerful way to say
(10:49):
thank you to warriors who would never ask for help themselves.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
So this Thursday, help fly warriors home for the holidays,
and for those who cannot fly, Warrior Foundation will fly
either loved ones to be with them. Warrior Foundation Freedom
Station would not exist without the continued generosity of you
good folks. So learn more and donate called six one
nine Warrior. That's six one nine Warrior, or visit Warrior
Foundation dot org.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
It is not that.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Similarly named organization that is not as careful with your dollars.
We'll just leave it there. Check charity navigator if you like.
Warrior Foundation dot org an incredible organization. Warrior Foundation dot org.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
I wanted to mention a couple of things about Halloween,
which was Friday and we've been on the air since then,
and what my kids did and what I saw in
my town and neighborhood for Thanksgiving, costumes, candy, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Trying to push occultism on us.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
I don't think so. I think they're trying to push
consumerism on us.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Yeah, no kidding.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Candy is practically free. Nobody really nobody needs more candy.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
I think Big Candy is who's really pushing Halloween because
if you think about it. Firstly, every single American family
could afford a giant stack of candy for the kids
tomand John twelve months a year, right, Oh, because it's
practically free, but for one day, and by extension, as
the candy lasts.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
A couple of weeks, maybe a year.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
The parents can completely give in the kids lust for candy,
or at least partially. You know, I think good families
apportionate you can only have two pieces a day.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
My kids have never gotten through all their candy. I
mean we start out that way and then pretty soon
I think I'm throwing this out and they forget about it.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Maybe it's just in addition to being a plot by
big Candy, it's another one of those desperately needed common
experiences you're always talking about.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Oh, there you go. That could be a lot of it. Yeah,
especially now how much candy gets thrown away every year,
that would be an interesting number. How much ends up
in the trash because I'm not gonna donate it. Who's
struggling out there and needs candy anyway?
Speaker 4 (13:06):
Well, yeah, this is the first time in human history
the poor have been fatter than the rich. Yeah, so
truckloads of candy being delivered a poor neighborhoods ain't gonna help.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
The best thing I could do for humanity is put
it in the garbage. But I got a few things
say about that, a lot of other stuff on the
waist here.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
Marty, It's gonna be a great Halloween, but I'll just
put it out there. Wrong year to go as a
mariachi band. Fuck, it's a fun time also a dangerous time, right,
(13:47):
I mean we're all aware that. I mean last year, Oh,
I had a bad time last year. Someone laced my
drugs with candy.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
So I live in a college town.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
I had to go pick up my high school or
a little bit later in the evening, and you would
have thought we lived in I've never actually been to
Amsterdam or the hookers everywhere in Amsterdam.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I'm trying to use a city where there are hookers everywhere.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Know that there are Tijuana something I don't know, because
it looked like there were hookers everywhere with all the
college kids, college girls dressed in there.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I'm a slutty witch, I'm a slutty nurse.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I'm a slutty whatever outfits my thirteen year old though he.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
Wanted to don't look at me twice because that makes
you a sexist and a perv. My thirteen year old
wanted to stay home and watch classic scary.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Movies, which we ended up doing, and eat some candy.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
I had not very many people come to our house
because we don't live into like a busy street where
people would come by.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I had a few neighbor kids and stuff like that.
Very cute.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Gave him some candy that was very nice. We watched
the original Friday.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
The Thirteenth from like nineteen seventy eight or something and
the original Halloween from roughly the same era with young
Jamie Lee Curtis, and I hadn't watched either one of them.
I'm old Katie, so I had seen both of them
in the theater that's when they originally came out, and
not sense for uh, because, as I did, horror is
not really my thing. Although Friday the thirteenth is ridiculous.
(15:11):
I don't know if it seemed ridiculous at the time,
but it's ridiculous. I mean, we spent the entire movie
shouting at why are you going in there? You just
heard a scream, You're going into a dark room without
a flashlight, what the hell are you doing?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
That's what makes horror movies fun.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
It's that I was wondering, Is that how why they're successful,
in that we're dealing with their fears and these people
are put in a position where we know we would
never do that, so we're safe. We're safe, and that
we're smarter than those people. Yeah, that's the whole thing.
Oh yeah, when you're when people look at real life
(15:50):
news stories of horror and murder and death and pain,
you see that all the time. I remember when we
used to take calls one hundred years ago. People would
always explain what the victim did wrong in kind of
a you know, come on tone of voice.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
It's how we protect ourselves from our fears. So they
make the people do dumb things on purpose. That's what
we like, because I think.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
That's too terrible, Katie, I think so true.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
And I did the same thing on Halloween and it
sounded like we were watching a sports game.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
You idiot.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Yeah right, come on in Halloween or Friday the thirteenth
in particular. Well, first of all, both movies teen Sex
leads to murder, so and I like that message for
my kids. If you start to get on my experience.
Go on, if you start to get undressed, you are
going to be hacked to death.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
That's just the way it is.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
You know who lives in both movies the nice girl
who stay clothed. The nice girl who stay clothed does
not get hacked to death. She tripped the balls a
few times while being chased, but she's able to get
up and outrun the murderer. Sorry, society is better when
we were all steaming up the backs of cars. Sorry
it was this. These people get off the internet and
grope somebody with their consents. If you want to get
(17:02):
hacked to death or get a like your man, don't.
Particularly Friday the thirteenth looks like it was filmed by me.
I mean, what was the budget for that movie? Just ridiculous.
That's why I love that, Jason. Is it the Geico
commercial where the guy says, let's go into that shack
with all the chain sauce, and the girl says, why
do we just get into that running car? And everybody's like,
(17:24):
you're an idiot, let's go into the chain sauce. Well,
you haven't seen your friends in an hour. You've heard
her scream a couple of times. She just gon wander
in that direction in the dark, wondering what's going on it?
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Who would do that in your underwear? You've nailed it.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
You've nailed the analysis though, that's exactly what's happening.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Yeah, and I again I hadn't seen these from forever?
How weeen with Jamie Lee Curtis, the John Carpenter is
that what his name is?
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Film?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
It's way more artistic and no wonder he's kind of
a legendary director, way way way more artistic and not
you know, has some art to it.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
In addition, be in the slash or filmed with ridiculouses.
And again the good girl who keeps her clothes on
rewarded by not having her head.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Cut off, which is always nice.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Gavin Newsom and Donald Trump with big interviews yesterday May.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
We can do some highlights from those. Among all the
things Armstrong and Getty, I feel.
Speaker 7 (18:18):
Like we're on the precipice of a remarkable moment on
November fourth, and not only where I'm confident we're gonna
win here with proposition fifty, but you're gonna have two
new remarkable governors in Virginia and New Jersey. You're gonna
have a dynamic young mayor, regardless of where you are
on the political spectrum. That ran an extraordinary, an exceptional
campaign that galvinized people that frankly have been disenfranchised from politics.
(18:39):
And we've got leaders now that have a united front
and a message that's breaking through.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
I can't listen to their elbuis. I just can't. I
just can't. I just can't. I'm sure that there was
a phrase.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
In there, it's just that didn't deserve to be dissected
and well murdered politician gobbledygook, and I'm just so over it.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
But that's Gavin unmeet the press yes day, which is
a big deal for him. He got the full like
multi segment interview as the governor of California, who's made
it clear he's running for president.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Prop fifty is going to pass tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Freaking unbelievable that that's where we are, That we're going
to do away with the no, no, no, we don't
let politicians draw their own districts stuff, and and that
Arnold got through.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Now we're going to go back to that. It's just unbelievable.
In the name of fairness and the name of democracy,
saving democracy, this never ending race to the bottom. I'm sorry,
I've got to kick him on the one sentence about
a dynamic young mayor who's no matter where you are
in the political spectrum, has run an amazing campaign. I
(19:45):
would like to sit Gavin down with a microphone say
you know, Hitler was an unbelievably galvanizing politician. I mean,
he had a populist gift unlike any other. So regardless
of where you are on the spectrum, you've got to
admire that.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Really. Well, if you're in a load.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Of crap, if you're going to go with that, I
think you didn't need to drop an H bomb for
crying out loud Trump. Okay, Well, then regardless where you
are on the political spectrum, you've got to admire Trump and.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Is blah blah blah. Right, Oh man, I.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Want to talk about Mondanmi later, but I want to
do a gardening show. It's very satisfying making something grow
and nurturing it and the rest of it. Politics is
so now completely about saying stupid things to stupid people
to motivate them to vote stupidly. Well, you're a perfect
(20:42):
person to ask about this because you're a big fan
of uh told me hl Menkin writing about the politics
of the early twentieth century.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yes, and.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
You've been pointing out over the years various stupid crap
that existed back, you know, one hundred years ago.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Go.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
But do you think things are actually stupider now than
they used to be in terms of our politics. Yes,
only because the means by which to connect with the
aforementioned stupid or ignorant, which is a different thing, is
it's so much more effective these days. You can reach
(21:21):
them via social media in a way that William Jennings
Brian dreamed of. He would have to go to your
town and give some galvanizing, you know, uh rabble rousing
speech and then maybe hope it was reprinted in a
couple of newspapers and travel the country tirelessly to spread
his crap. Yeah, pushing back against uh people, I lie
(21:44):
in principle, it's very similar, though, pushing back against people
I like in friends of this show, who who will
regularly regularly say Tim will say this, Lonnie Chen will
say this. Lots of different people say our politics have
always been stupid, and then they'll throughout an example. Okay,
you can very easily pick out examples over the last
two hundred and fifty years of things that are as
(22:05):
stupid as today.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
But now it's all day, every day. It's not just like.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Six times spread out over two hundred and fifty years
where you can find, you know, awful things said about
candidates or duplicited blah blah blah. It's always it's the
only thing because at the same time where you had
dumb politics going on, you also had debates were way
more serious than they are now. One hundred percent, yeah,
(22:32):
a million percent. And look, you you don't need to
be hl Menken or George will or some learned observer
of politics to understand that money motivates politics.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Right, Well, what is the.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Biggest source of money ever seen in politics? Small donations
on the internet? How do you get small? How do
you generate giving on the internet? Appealing to our basest fears?
Are but most base prejudices in saying anger and fear
and the resentment and anti semitism or whatever.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Yeah, here's two clips of Gavenus and both need to
be commented on.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Do you legitimately believe that he was capable of serving
as president until January of twenty twenty nine?
Speaker 5 (23:20):
Yeah, I think my focus was frankly situational. It was
making sure Donald Trump didn't get back into office to
experience everything that we're experiencing today. And there was no
interaction I had that suggested otherwise. I hate when I
nothing I dislike more than the politician that sits there
and lies to you and.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
We all just sit there role in our eyes, go
and give me a break.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
It's like a wow, too much? But yeah, you're black,
said the kettle.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
The first clip was classic Gavenus, in which I think
we're all going to grow too really beautable to recognize
as he runs president. I mean, if he gets the nomination,
there's gonna be lots of this. He is getting around
answering questions. He's pretty good at it. At least the
interviewers let him get away with it all the time.
(24:11):
You really think Joe Biden was capable of serving another term?
Speaker 4 (24:15):
Yeah, well my it was situational. Okay, what then you've
changed topics already. I mean, what do we talking? He
does that all the time. Do you think boys should
be able to participate in girls' sports? Look, it's a
matter of fairness, and well yes or no. He gets
away with never addressing whatever issue you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And he calls us pretty good at it.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
Yeah yeah, I long ago I used to call him
lunkhead Gavenowsom, but then I realized, now that's the wrong
epithet for him. He's utterly soulless and a moral He
is a cipher. He is a tool who who changes
what he says. What he says he believes entirely situationally.
(24:57):
Speaking of situationless, here's something situational thinking.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
He has no principles, Glad, I just other than a
lust for power, Glad, I just remembered this. This is
from Mark Hauprin's news letter today. Let me find that
for you. Or it's on the idea that Gavin's gonna
get a huge win tomorrow. I mean, it's it's really
big for him that he was able to come up
with this Prop fifty thing to look like he's fighting
(25:23):
against Texas. It pulled horribly in the beginning. They've turned
it around making it all about Trump, and it's going
to pass tomorrow. After Prop fifty passes, Gavin Newsom's donor
juggernaut will scare off some rivals who want to challenge
him to be president because a lot of donors are
going to come forward and think this is a guy
that can get things done. But at least one Democratic
(25:46):
rival is going to drop Apple research on the California
governor to slow the train down.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
That's his that's his insider reporting.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
So somebody, and I don't know who, if it's Kamala
or Josh Shapiro or some we don't even know the
name of who wants to get the nomination, has got
some Apple research.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
There's got to be a lot of Apple research on Gavin.
There has to be.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
How about somebody who's very very smart, very very tough,
and more than willing to stick the metaphorical knife in ladies.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
And gentlemen, I give you rom Emmanuel. Oh right right, yeah, please.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
He is right now plotting with the RNC, writing and
producing the commercials showing Gavin Newsom's California and the state
it's in.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Yeah, and he's my guy.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
If it has to be a Democrat, because sometimes, you know,
just we go back and forth, neither party can hold
onto the presidency for too long because it's just the
way it works. And if it has to be a
Democrat when the next time around, I'd rather it be
Ramammanuel than Gavin Newsom by a long shot.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Oh yeah, there's plenty to not like about Rom, but at.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Least at least he is I was gonna say principle, Well, no,
he's not wo. He's a moderate democrat of the conventional sort. Yeah, Gavin, God, no, Gavin.
I tell you what if some by some bizarre, horrific
(27:16):
twist of fate, there was some movement for forced sex.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Changes of kids.
Speaker 4 (27:24):
If you catch a kid playing with the dollies obviously transgender,
whether he realizes it or not, and you will get
a sex change, whether the child or the parent wants
it or not. Gavin would get behind that if it
would get him more power.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
So yeah, Rom Emmanuel is not that guy. I just
saw something on TV. Squirrel, I'm easily distracted.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
I just got a whole bunch of TVs on in here,
and I just saw something on TV and there was
a woman no arms playing the piano with their toes.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
It's on inspiring and annoying. Katie, Why did you make
that face?
Speaker 3 (28:05):
I was going to, well, what is your takeaway on
that before I unleash some serious wisdom.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Just amazing. That is not what your face said. That
was like a really big pivot jack. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Every once in a while I need those. Sometimes they
land like this for me. I should not complain about
anything I got arms right, I'm just annoyed because I'm
a terrible piano player with my fingers.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Like the homeless person I saw the other day. I
was talking about this guy, a couple of teeth, dirty, scabby,
no shoes or socks. Couldn't have been more filthy, sitting
there playing a beat up guitar and way better than me.
And I thought that is so madening. But more I
think I might have played with that guy once.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
But the armless woman playing the panel with their toes,
I got to you know, I need that dose of
perspective every now and then. Yes, yeah, it does help,
you know. Honestly, here, can I be serious? I got
to make the transition into serious because this is serious
serious right here?
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Respect that doing the.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Oil change yesterday in my truck. And I really long
Sunday for a Sunday. Sundays God wanted us to rest.
Speaker 4 (29:28):
Even God was tired on Sunday after six days of
great in the world, is worn out.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Took a day off Sunday.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
I'm working my ass off, running kids around and doing
these various things and just NonStop all day long.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
And I was a bit feeling a bit, I don't know,
put upon the leaguered. Is that? Yeah, like like, you know,
poor me, that's it.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
I was feeling a little poor me on this beautiful
Sunday as I was busy every minute all day long.
And I pulled in there and I looked over and
there's a mom and she's got two obviously very special
needs kids in her car who are adults or adults
adjacent that are. You know, they're the kind of special
needs are going to need to be taken care of
the rest of their lives. And I mean, come on,
(30:16):
do I need to be slapped in the face any
harder than that with my two healthy kids and my
very normal wife.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, So that was a That was a good one.
God put that one.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
There for me at the right time. Now look at
that mom. She's probably complaining less than I am about
my very very easy compared to her situation.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
So you think God trotted them out for your enlightenment?
Speaker 6 (30:39):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Yeah, I think about you. It's very complicated.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
It's very complicated, as the sun and the planets revolve
around you, that's a shame, that's not it. It works
that way for everyone at the same time. I know
we all interact. It's part of the grand mosaic that
none of us can comprehend exactly. Uh sorry, I told
you I would take it seriously.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Then I didn't.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
I lied in my hypocrite and I apologize. And the
oil change costs like one hundred and twenty bucks? Is
that what they've always cost ors that do with inflation?
I don't remember it costs them that much.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Yeah, anyhow, couple of so I went over to that
one of the special needs kids, and I said, can.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
You believe the prices? Okay, good, and let me tell
you about how hard my day has been.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
I said to her, Oh boy, no, no, no, no,
So maybe next hour. A trio of college related stories
that run the gamut from the hilarious about the little
snowflakes to a college football story that amazed me, to
a giant company you've heard of that said college has
(31:44):
become a waste of time, or hiring high school grads
just really, really good, wide variety college is.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
A waste of time for like, I don't know, eighty
to ninety percent of people really really is.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Faster, we figure that out the better.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
A lot more on the ways to stay here. An
eighty year old woman set a record for all this
female to hike the Appalachian Trail and also the record
for most circling vultures.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
I thought that was the funniest joke of the nut.
That's insensitive.
Speaker 4 (32:27):
Ah my god, Hey, so somebody told me this. I
didn't come across this controversy from The Golden Bachelor. Are
you familiar with that TV show? I think they've had
a Golden Bachelor and a Golden Have the had a
Golden Bachelorette?
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Do you know that? Katie Michael says, yes, yes, they've.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
They have, they have, and they're they're old. Person is
off often somebody in their mid sixties. But well, for
dating shows, that's aged absolutely Uh. Golden Bachelor said the
other day that forty five was his up.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Age limit for somebody who's willing to date.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
Oh, and got a huge blowback and had to apparently
apologize for that and walk it back. They got so
much hate mail and then commenting everything.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Like that on the show. But well, how old was
this dude? Sixty six? Oh? Wow, dudeis I'm.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
On forty five is uh Anyway, it started a conversation
about for women, where what when old hits for women
versus when old hits for men, and.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
Like fair whether you're you know, fifty eight or forty one.
If a sixty six year old guy says to you, yeah,
I'm not going to date anybody over the age of
forty five. You know what you're getting into exactly as
kind of a handy that he would go ahead and
say that. So I didn't.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
I wasn't going to bring up politics, but I just
saw this. I just came across this. I missed this
somehow or the weekend, Barack Obama campaigned in New Jersey
and Virginia for various people. Did not campaign for Doron
and that is not like those I don't know if
you know how the map works or if you've ever
looked at a map, but.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Pretty close there, New York. Oh yeah, New Jersey and
Virginity stuff. He get flights to New York though they
got no good airports.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
So as a gazilliona air former president, yeah, it had
been very difficult for him. He did not stop by
any of the many campaign stops for Dolron. Mom Donnie
Uhron Barack Obama a little too well, it might just
be being principled here, but also a little too good
a politician to want to be on the stage with
that guy.
Speaker 4 (34:35):
I don't have the wording in front of me, but
he made some sort of vague praise of the energy
of the campaign.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
And Mom Donnie cleverly went with a well, we're not
we don't. We don't mind, because obviously beneath a president
to weigh in on mayor races. People were quick to
point out that Barack Obama had went on stage with
many mayoral candidates for New York over the years, including
winning Bill de Blasio not that many years ago.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Well, Mam Donnie makes Obama look like Mitt Romney.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
Well, yeah, absolutely, and good for Barack Obama did not
be on a stage with an actual freaking socialist and
Israel hater, right, so that that was too far for him?
Speaker 1 (35:23):
It is, it is, it is.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
He's gotten a lot of attention. Obviously, We've talked about
it a lot. Everybody who follows politics talked about it
a lot. I still think it's being underplayed.
Speaker 4 (35:31):
That the financial capital of the planet is about to
elect a socialist right as they're.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Mayor, zor run man done.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
And it's not like people call Barack Obama socialist. Okay, fine,
is politics are way closer to that than I like.
But he didn't come up through the Socialist Party for
crying out loud and.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Run on a socialist ticket.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
He was just an extension of ventional expanding the welfare state.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Thinking this is a big deal. A socialist is gonna
be mayor of New York.
Speaker 4 (36:06):
Coming up next hour, a really entertaining trio of stories
about college today. Also, it is now possible to clone
the Neanderthal.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
But is it a good idea? Wow, I'm interested. Let's
stay with us.
Speaker 4 (36:20):
If you can't stay with us, grab the podcast Armstrong
and Getty
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong
and Getty and now he Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
An alleged Halloween terror attack foiled FBI agents yelling in Arabic.
This is the FBI warning residents of this home that
they have a warrant and to come out. Video showing
the agents using flashbanks then storming into the house in Dearborn, Michigan,
five young individuals were taken into custody involving a plot
to conduct an attack in the US that has a
(00:45):
connection to ISIS. The suspects are naturalized citizens from a
Middle Eastern country who had access to firearms and firearm training.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Well, that's horrifying.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
I don't know how close that was to reaching its conclusion,
but God the FBI was able to stop it. We
do not need an Islamist terrorist attack in the United
States to further get us all worked up.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
So before we go any further with that, do we
have any more details on that stabbing situation on the
train in London over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
No.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
Originally, originally it was two men stabbed a whole bunch
of people, and then the internet Twitter went wild with
it being.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
You know, Islamic something or other. But then since then
it's only one person arrested is a British national. I
don't know anything about the person.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
But in Great Britain and Europe in general, they had
they go out of their way to hide that sort
of thing, which they.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Ought to a horrendous extent.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
Yeah, which they ought to stop doing because it makes
people like me more suspicious, not less of what's going
on here.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Right.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
It's so annoying because the authorities systematically cover up involvement
of Islamists and Islamic people to avoid the backlash, and
we all fear, and so the internet goes wild in
the other direction.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Yeah, exactly. So, Yeah, it's doing more harm than good.
So I don't know what happened there. And then you
got an is Lomist, well, Muslim adjacent is Lomist adjacent.
Maybe that'd be fair to say, Mom, Donnie's going to
become get elected mayor in New York tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
I think he's an out He's an out and out Islamist. Yeah,
I do. And here's why. Unless he is just so
young and fuzzy headed that he himself hasn't connected the dots,
and you know it's it's funny. I shouldn't grant him
that benefit of the doubt. I just happened to come across, uh,
(02:45):
And I don't want to get off because it's a tangent.
But a young celebrity, you donated a tremendous amount of
money to these completely fuzzy headed, illogical causes. But it's
just childlike in her understand the world. And I guess
it's possible that this guy, raised by academics and filmmakers
(03:06):
just has a fanciful understanding of the world.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
But if somebody like that kills you, every bit is dead.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
It's funny. Somebody sent me a New Yorker cartoon over
the weekend. They were applying this to Gavin Newsom, but
it applies to Zorn also.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
The New Yorker cartoon was they're presenting this pitch for
a show. It's sort of a popular, attractive kid from
a well to doced, stable family succeeds against all odd story.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
That is what Zorn and Gavin both are rich, rich,
good looking, connected people succeed against all odds.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Oh I love that. So anyway, back to my main point.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Part of the reason I believe that is because he admitted,
well proudly he stated at the Democratic Socialists of America
convention that he came to politics through the Palestinian cause.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
That's why he's involved in all this.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
And I think he is intelligent enough to understand and know,
probably historically, how Marxists and Islamists have worked together to
overthrow the status quo in non Islamist countries, and then
the Islamists, because generally speaking they're much more brutal and unified,
they win over the Marxists see Iran. Anyway, I was
(04:24):
reading this profile of the leader of the Huthis, whose
name is abdulah Malik al Huthi, who's survived relentless attacks
by Israel. He's seen in the Arab world in the
eyes of a lot of supporters, is the last militant
leader still fighting in the Middle East.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
His last name is Hufi. I've never known what Huthi meant,
so it's a family name.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Uh yeah, I think so that's his nom de guerre.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
I don't know if that's his real name, but I
think the movement is named after him. Anyway, He has said,
and here's the connection to Mamdani. Okay Mamdani who said
he came to politics through the Palestinian cause. Al Huthi
says he'll respect any truths it's truth signed by his
Palestinian allies Hamas.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
But whatever the outcome, the Huthis are.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Expected to continue their religious war against Israel in the
US over time. The group's slogan chanted at rallies. This
is their slogan now, not e pluribus union or whatever.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Is God is great.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Death to America, death to Israel, cursed the Jews.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Victory to Islam. How do you sign a peace treaty
with that guy?
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Death to America, Death Israel, curse the Jews, victory to Islam.
God is great. They have one purpose that's to Islamize
the planet. Period.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I'll be interesting to see what Mamdani says tomorrow night
in his victory speech and in the coming days, if
he's going to try to be you know, I'm a
mayor to all people, people who voted for me and
people have voted against me, or if he's going to double
down on some of his earlier rhetic rhetoric from earlier
in his life, which is you know, fairly recent since
he's only thirty four years old.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
In a related story, a top Katari official who served
as ambassa ambassador to the US has repeatedly praised slain
Hamas leaders as martyrs, called on the terror group to
pursue resistance until victory, and denounced Israel as the enemy
of humanity. Ray has repeatedly used his ex account to
glorify Hamas in vilify Israel. This is a Katari leader
(06:37):
who is ambassador to the US.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Well, Trump threatening to send US troops to Nigeria over
the weekend because of the slaughtering of Christians right by
fundamentalist Islamist nut jobs.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Meanwhile in Nigeria, oh, I'm sorry. In America, in New York, specifically,
pro Hamas activists Abdullah Akl and Mohammed Badaway have called
to quote strike Tel Aviv and destroy the illegitimate Zionist
occupiers and all of their supporters. They're now launching an
initiative to form student chapters in dozens of New York
City public high schools. Akeel, an advocacy director with the
(07:16):
Muslim American Society Youth Center in Brooklyn, recently announced the
group's MAS in Schools initiative, which aims to create prayer
spaces and host Islamic events at fifty New York high schools.
The group will partner for the first time ever with
Students for Justice in Palestine and the radical organization that
earlier this month called for death to all collaborators of
Israel to do so, and now they are trying to
(07:39):
organize in New York City schools. If you don't think
Islamism is on the march in the United States and Europe,
which is way down that road, you are a fool
or a coward who's been bullied by talk of Islamophobia, etc.
It is one of the great challenges this country faced,
and I'm glad that more and more people are recognizing it,
(07:59):
but not nearly enough. These people are hardcore end democracy,
install sharia law and they're organizing clubs in fifty high schools.
And oh, by the way, Students for justin in Palestine
Palestine has three hundred and fifty chapters at universities across
North America.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
You know what I'm not good at is knowing how
big various countries are that aren't well, that are in Africa,
generally Nigeria, is a country of two hundred and thirty
million people.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
I had no idea.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Yesn't it's the population of what the United States was,
you know, fifty twenty years ago.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
It's in your top five or six countries on Earth,
isn't it. Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Anyway, Trump put out a truth social post over the weekend.
I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare
for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast,
vicious and sweet, just like the terrorised thugs attack our
cherished Christians. Fast, vicious and sweet is an odd phrase anyway,
military action in a country of two hundred and thirty
(09:07):
million people, And I don't know where that fits in
with the whole America first, no more, forever. War's mine
in our own business thing, because.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
You got the competing notion of protecting Christians around the
world right as far as Magga goes.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
But at some point we probably ought to spend a
little time. Maybe when we have time to do an
extended look at it. I reread ion Hersey Ali's brilliant essay.
If you don't know her, she was a former Muslim
immigrant to her Land or Britain. Actually, she is married
to the absolutely brilliant historian Neil Ferguson, and she is
(09:49):
one of the most brilliant persuasive writers on the topic
of Islamism on Earth, and she relates some of the
subversion subverting of US society to the Soviet techniques. And
a lot of you are familiar because you email us
like twice a week of Yuri was it Jury Besmanov,
the KGB agent who did that sit down interview back
(10:12):
in nineteen eighty three about psychological warfare, subversion and the
control of society. It's absolutely brilliant, and miss Ali relates
Islamism to those techniques and it's absolutely incredibly revealing. We'll
figure out when we want to unleash that and do
it at some point.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
So we want to mention this.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
This Thursday is the annual Warrior Foundation Freedom Station Givethon.
Twenty one years, Warrior Foundation Freedom Station has been serving
our ill and injured warriors and the givethon is a
chance to fly them home for the holidays, because everyone
deserves to be with loved ones, especially those who sacrifice
so much for our country. Your tax deductible donation is
more than a gift. It's a powerful way to say
(10:49):
thank you to warriors who would never ask for help themselves.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
So this Thursday, help fly warriors home for the holidays,
and for those who cannot fly, Warrior Foundation will fly
either loved ones to be with them. Warrior Foundation Freedom
Station would not exist without the continued generosity of you
good folks. So learn more and donate called six one
nine Warrior. That's six one nine Warrior, or visit Warrior
Foundation dot org.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
It is not that.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Similarly named organization that is not as careful with your dollars.
We'll just leave it there. Check charity navigator if you like.
Warrior Foundation dot org an incredible organization. Warrior Foundation dot org.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
I wanted to mention a couple of things about Halloween,
which was Friday and we've been on the air since then,
and what my kids did and what I saw in
my town and neighborhood for Thanksgiving, costumes, candy, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Trying to push occultism on us.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
I don't think so. I think they're trying to push
consumerism on us.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Yeah, no kidding.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Candy is practically free. Nobody really nobody needs more candy.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
I think Big Candy is who's really pushing Halloween because
if you think about it. Firstly, every single American family
could afford a giant stack of candy for the kids
tomand John twelve months a year, right, Oh, because it's
practically free, but for one day, and by extension, as
the candy lasts.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
A couple of weeks, maybe a year.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
The parents can completely give in the kids lust for candy,
or at least partially. You know, I think good families
apportionate you can only have two pieces a day.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
My kids have never gotten through all their candy. I
mean we start out that way and then pretty soon
I think I'm throwing this out and they forget about it.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Maybe it's just in addition to being a plot by
big Candy, it's another one of those desperately needed common
experiences you're always talking about.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Oh, there you go. That could be a lot of it. Yeah,
especially now how much candy gets thrown away every year,
that would be an interesting number. How much ends up
in the trash because I'm not gonna donate it. Who's
struggling out there and needs candy anyway?
Speaker 4 (13:06):
Well, yeah, this is the first time in human history
the poor have been fatter than the rich. Yeah, so
truckloads of candy being delivered a poor neighborhoods ain't gonna help.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
The best thing I could do for humanity is put
it in the garbage. But I got a few things
say about that, a lot of other stuff on the
waist here.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
Marty, It's gonna be a great Halloween, but I'll just
put it out there. Wrong year to go as a
mariachi band. Fuck, it's a fun time also a dangerous time, right,
(13:47):
I mean we're all aware that. I mean last year, Oh,
I had a bad time last year. Someone laced my
drugs with candy.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
So I live in a college town.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
I had to go pick up my high school or
a little bit later in the evening, and you would
have thought we lived in I've never actually been to
Amsterdam or the hookers everywhere in Amsterdam.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
I'm trying to use a city where there are hookers everywhere.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Know that there are Tijuana something I don't know, because
it looked like there were hookers everywhere with all the
college kids, college girls dressed in there.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I'm a slutty witch, I'm a slutty nurse.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I'm a slutty whatever outfits my thirteen year old though he.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
Wanted to don't look at me twice because that makes
you a sexist and a perv. My thirteen year old
wanted to stay home and watch classic scary.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Movies, which we ended up doing, and eat some candy.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
I had not very many people come to our house
because we don't live into like a busy street where
people would come by.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I had a few neighbor kids and stuff like that.
Very cute.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Gave him some candy that was very nice. We watched
the original Friday.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
The Thirteenth from like nineteen seventy eight or something and
the original Halloween from roughly the same era with young
Jamie Lee Curtis, and I hadn't watched either one of them.
I'm old Katie, so I had seen both of them
in the theater that's when they originally came out, and
not sense for uh, because, as I did, horror is
not really my thing. Although Friday the thirteenth is ridiculous.
(15:11):
I don't know if it seemed ridiculous at the time,
but it's ridiculous. I mean, we spent the entire movie
shouting at why are you going in there? You just
heard a scream, You're going into a dark room without
a flashlight, what the hell are you doing?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
That's what makes horror movies fun.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
It's that I was wondering, Is that how why they're successful,
in that we're dealing with their fears and these people
are put in a position where we know we would
never do that, so we're safe. We're safe, and that
we're smarter than those people. Yeah, that's the whole thing.
Oh yeah, when you're when people look at real life
(15:50):
news stories of horror and murder and death and pain,
you see that all the time. I remember when we
used to take calls one hundred years ago. People would
always explain what the victim did wrong in kind of
a you know, come on tone of voice.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
It's how we protect ourselves from our fears. So they
make the people do dumb things on purpose. That's what
we like, because I think.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
That's too terrible, Katie, I think so true.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
And I did the same thing on Halloween and it
sounded like we were watching a sports game.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
You idiot.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Yeah right, come on in Halloween or Friday the thirteenth
in particular. Well, first of all, both movies teen Sex
leads to murder, so and I like that message for
my kids. If you start to get on my experience.
Go on, if you start to get undressed, you are
going to be hacked to death.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
That's just the way it is.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
You know who lives in both movies the nice girl
who stay clothed. The nice girl who stay clothed does
not get hacked to death. She tripped the balls a
few times while being chased, but she's able to get
up and outrun the murderer. Sorry, society is better when
we were all steaming up the backs of cars. Sorry
it was this. These people get off the internet and
grope somebody with their consents. If you want to get
(17:02):
hacked to death or get a like your man, don't.
Particularly Friday the thirteenth looks like it was filmed by me.
I mean, what was the budget for that movie? Just ridiculous.
That's why I love that, Jason. Is it the Geico
commercial where the guy says, let's go into that shack
with all the chain sauce, and the girl says, why
do we just get into that running car? And everybody's like,
(17:24):
you're an idiot, let's go into the chain sauce. Well,
you haven't seen your friends in an hour. You've heard
her scream a couple of times. She just gon wander
in that direction in the dark, wondering what's going on it?
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Who would do that in your underwear? You've nailed it.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
You've nailed the analysis though, that's exactly what's happening.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Yeah, and I again I hadn't seen these from forever?
How weeen with Jamie Lee Curtis, the John Carpenter is
that what his name is?
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Film?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
It's way more artistic and no wonder he's kind of
a legendary director, way way way more artistic and not
you know, has some art to it.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
In addition, be in the slash or filmed with ridiculouses.
And again the good girl who keeps her clothes on
rewarded by not having her head.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Cut off, which is always nice.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Gavin Newsom and Donald Trump with big interviews yesterday May.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
We can do some highlights from those. Among all the
things Armstrong and Getty, I feel.
Speaker 7 (18:18):
Like we're on the precipice of a remarkable moment on
November fourth, and not only where I'm confident we're gonna
win here with proposition fifty, but you're gonna have two
new remarkable governors in Virginia and New Jersey. You're gonna
have a dynamic young mayor, regardless of where you are
on the political spectrum. That ran an extraordinary, an exceptional
campaign that galvinized people that frankly have been disenfranchised from politics.
(18:39):
And we've got leaders now that have a united front
and a message that's breaking through.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
I can't listen to their elbuis. I just can't. I
just can't. I just can't. I'm sure that there was
a phrase.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
In there, it's just that didn't deserve to be dissected
and well murdered politician gobbledygook, and I'm just so over it.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
But that's Gavin unmeet the press yes day, which is
a big deal for him. He got the full like
multi segment interview as the governor of California, who's made
it clear he's running for president.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Prop fifty is going to pass tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Freaking unbelievable that that's where we are, That we're going
to do away with the no, no, no, we don't
let politicians draw their own districts stuff, and and that
Arnold got through.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Now we're going to go back to that. It's just unbelievable.
In the name of fairness and the name of democracy,
saving democracy, this never ending race to the bottom. I'm sorry,
I've got to kick him on the one sentence about
a dynamic young mayor who's no matter where you are
in the political spectrum, has run an amazing campaign. I
(19:45):
would like to sit Gavin down with a microphone say
you know, Hitler was an unbelievably galvanizing politician. I mean,
he had a populist gift unlike any other. So regardless
of where you are on the spectrum, you've got to
admire that.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Really. Well, if you're in a load.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Of crap, if you're going to go with that, I
think you didn't need to drop an H bomb for
crying out loud Trump. Okay, Well, then regardless where you
are on the political spectrum, you've got to admire Trump and.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Is blah blah blah. Right, Oh man, I.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Want to talk about Mondanmi later, but I want to
do a gardening show. It's very satisfying making something grow
and nurturing it and the rest of it. Politics is
so now completely about saying stupid things to stupid people
to motivate them to vote stupidly. Well, you're a perfect
(20:42):
person to ask about this because you're a big fan
of uh told me hl Menkin writing about the politics
of the early twentieth century.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yes, and.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
You've been pointing out over the years various stupid crap
that existed back, you know, one hundred years ago.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Go.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
But do you think things are actually stupider now than
they used to be in terms of our politics. Yes,
only because the means by which to connect with the
aforementioned stupid or ignorant, which is a different thing, is
it's so much more effective these days. You can reach
(21:21):
them via social media in a way that William Jennings
Brian dreamed of. He would have to go to your
town and give some galvanizing, you know, uh rabble rousing
speech and then maybe hope it was reprinted in a
couple of newspapers and travel the country tirelessly to spread
his crap. Yeah, pushing back against uh people, I lie
(21:44):
in principle, it's very similar, though, pushing back against people
I like in friends of this show, who who will
regularly regularly say Tim will say this, Lonnie Chen will
say this. Lots of different people say our politics have
always been stupid, and then they'll throughout an example. Okay,
you can very easily pick out examples over the last
two hundred and fifty years of things that are as
(22:05):
stupid as today.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
But now it's all day, every day. It's not just like.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Six times spread out over two hundred and fifty years
where you can find, you know, awful things said about
candidates or duplicited blah blah blah. It's always it's the
only thing because at the same time where you had
dumb politics going on, you also had debates were way
more serious than they are now. One hundred percent, yeah,
(22:32):
a million percent. And look, you you don't need to
be hl Menken or George will or some learned observer
of politics to understand that money motivates politics.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Right, Well, what is the.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Biggest source of money ever seen in politics? Small donations
on the internet? How do you get small? How do
you generate giving on the internet? Appealing to our basest fears?
Are but most base prejudices in saying anger and fear
and the resentment and anti semitism or whatever.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Yeah, here's two clips of Gavenus and both need to
be commented on.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Do you legitimately believe that he was capable of serving
as president until January of twenty twenty nine?
Speaker 5 (23:20):
Yeah, I think my focus was frankly situational. It was
making sure Donald Trump didn't get back into office to
experience everything that we're experiencing today. And there was no
interaction I had that suggested otherwise. I hate when I
nothing I dislike more than the politician that sits there
and lies to you and.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
We all just sit there role in our eyes, go
and give me a break.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
It's like a wow, too much? But yeah, you're black,
said the kettle.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
The first clip was classic Gavenus, in which I think
we're all going to grow too really beautable to recognize
as he runs president. I mean, if he gets the nomination,
there's gonna be lots of this. He is getting around
answering questions. He's pretty good at it. At least the
interviewers let him get away with it all the time.
(24:11):
You really think Joe Biden was capable of serving another term?
Speaker 4 (24:15):
Yeah, well my it was situational. Okay, what then you've
changed topics already. I mean, what do we talking? He
does that all the time. Do you think boys should
be able to participate in girls' sports? Look, it's a
matter of fairness, and well yes or no. He gets
away with never addressing whatever issue you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And he calls us pretty good at it.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
Yeah yeah, I long ago I used to call him
lunkhead Gavenowsom, but then I realized, now that's the wrong
epithet for him. He's utterly soulless and a moral He
is a cipher. He is a tool who who changes
what he says. What he says he believes entirely situationally.
(24:57):
Speaking of situationless, here's something situational thinking.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
He has no principles, Glad, I just other than a
lust for power, Glad, I just remembered this. This is
from Mark Hauprin's news letter today. Let me find that
for you. Or it's on the idea that Gavin's gonna
get a huge win tomorrow. I mean, it's it's really
big for him that he was able to come up
with this Prop fifty thing to look like he's fighting
(25:23):
against Texas. It pulled horribly in the beginning. They've turned
it around making it all about Trump, and it's going
to pass tomorrow. After Prop fifty passes, Gavin Newsom's donor
juggernaut will scare off some rivals who want to challenge
him to be president because a lot of donors are
going to come forward and think this is a guy
that can get things done. But at least one Democratic
(25:46):
rival is going to drop Apple research on the California
governor to slow the train down.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
That's his that's his insider reporting.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
So somebody, and I don't know who, if it's Kamala
or Josh Shapiro or some we don't even know the
name of who wants to get the nomination, has got
some Apple research.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
There's got to be a lot of Apple research on Gavin.
There has to be.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
How about somebody who's very very smart, very very tough,
and more than willing to stick the metaphorical knife in ladies.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
And gentlemen, I give you rom Emmanuel. Oh right right, yeah, please.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
He is right now plotting with the RNC, writing and
producing the commercials showing Gavin Newsom's California and the state
it's in.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Yeah, and he's my guy.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
If it has to be a Democrat, because sometimes, you know,
just we go back and forth, neither party can hold
onto the presidency for too long because it's just the
way it works. And if it has to be a
Democrat when the next time around, I'd rather it be
Ramammanuel than Gavin Newsom by a long shot.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Oh yeah, there's plenty to not like about Rom, but at.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Least at least he is I was gonna say principle, Well, no,
he's not wo. He's a moderate democrat of the conventional sort. Yeah, Gavin, God, no, Gavin.
I tell you what if some by some bizarre, horrific
(27:16):
twist of fate, there was some movement for forced sex.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Changes of kids.
Speaker 4 (27:24):
If you catch a kid playing with the dollies obviously transgender,
whether he realizes it or not, and you will get
a sex change, whether the child or the parent wants
it or not. Gavin would get behind that if it
would get him more power.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
So yeah, Rom Emmanuel is not that guy. I just
saw something on TV. Squirrel, I'm easily distracted.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
I just got a whole bunch of TVs on in here,
and I just saw something on TV and there was
a woman no arms playing the piano with their toes.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
It's on inspiring and annoying. Katie, Why did you make
that face?
Speaker 3 (28:05):
I was going to, well, what is your takeaway on
that before I unleash some serious wisdom.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Just amazing. That is not what your face said. That
was like a really big pivot jack. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Every once in a while I need those. Sometimes they
land like this for me. I should not complain about
anything I got arms right, I'm just annoyed because I'm
a terrible piano player with my fingers.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Like the homeless person I saw the other day. I
was talking about this guy, a couple of teeth, dirty, scabby,
no shoes or socks. Couldn't have been more filthy, sitting
there playing a beat up guitar and way better than me.
And I thought that is so madening. But more I
think I might have played with that guy once.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
But the armless woman playing the panel with their toes,
I got to you know, I need that dose of
perspective every now and then. Yes, yeah, it does help,
you know. Honestly, here, can I be serious? I got
to make the transition into serious because this is serious
serious right here?
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Respect that doing the.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Oil change yesterday in my truck. And I really long
Sunday for a Sunday. Sundays God wanted us to rest.
Speaker 4 (29:28):
Even God was tired on Sunday after six days of
great in the world, is worn out.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
Took a day off Sunday.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
I'm working my ass off, running kids around and doing
these various things and just NonStop all day long.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
And I was a bit feeling a bit, I don't know,
put upon the leaguered. Is that? Yeah, like like, you know,
poor me, that's it.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
I was feeling a little poor me on this beautiful
Sunday as I was busy every minute all day long.
And I pulled in there and I looked over and
there's a mom and she's got two obviously very special
needs kids in her car who are adults or adults
adjacent that are. You know, they're the kind of special
needs are going to need to be taken care of
the rest of their lives. And I mean, come on,
(30:16):
do I need to be slapped in the face any
harder than that with my two healthy kids and my
very normal wife.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, So that was a That was a good one.
God put that one.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
There for me at the right time. Now look at
that mom. She's probably complaining less than I am about
my very very easy compared to her situation.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
So you think God trotted them out for your enlightenment?
Speaker 6 (30:39):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Yeah, I think about you. It's very complicated.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
It's very complicated, as the sun and the planets revolve
around you, that's a shame, that's not it. It works
that way for everyone at the same time. I know
we all interact. It's part of the grand mosaic that
none of us can comprehend exactly. Uh sorry, I told
you I would take it seriously.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Then I didn't.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
I lied in my hypocrite and I apologize. And the
oil change costs like one hundred and twenty bucks? Is
that what they've always cost ors that do with inflation?
I don't remember it costs them that much.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Yeah, anyhow, couple of so I went over to that
one of the special needs kids, and I said, can.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
You believe the prices? Okay, good, and let me tell
you about how hard my day has been.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
I said to her, Oh boy, no, no, no, no,
So maybe next hour. A trio of college related stories
that run the gamut from the hilarious about the little
snowflakes to a college football story that amazed me, to
a giant company you've heard of that said college has
(31:44):
become a waste of time, or hiring high school grads
just really, really good, wide variety college is.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
A waste of time for like, I don't know, eighty
to ninety percent of people really really is.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Faster, we figure that out the better.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
A lot more on the ways to stay here. An
eighty year old woman set a record for all this
female to hike the Appalachian Trail and also the record
for most circling vultures.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
I thought that was the funniest joke of the nut.
That's insensitive.
Speaker 4 (32:27):
Ah my god, Hey, so somebody told me this. I
didn't come across this controversy from The Golden Bachelor. Are
you familiar with that TV show? I think they've had
a Golden Bachelor and a Golden Have the had a
Golden Bachelorette?
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Do you know that? Katie Michael says, yes, yes, they've.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
They have, they have, and they're they're old. Person is
off often somebody in their mid sixties. But well, for
dating shows, that's aged absolutely Uh. Golden Bachelor said the
other day that forty five was his up.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Age limit for somebody who's willing to date.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
Oh, and got a huge blowback and had to apparently
apologize for that and walk it back. They got so
much hate mail and then commenting everything.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Like that on the show. But well, how old was
this dude? Sixty six? Oh? Wow, dudeis I'm.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
On forty five is uh Anyway, it started a conversation
about for women, where what when old hits for women
versus when old hits for men, and.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
Like fair whether you're you know, fifty eight or forty one.
If a sixty six year old guy says to you, yeah,
I'm not going to date anybody over the age of
forty five. You know what you're getting into exactly as
kind of a handy that he would go ahead and
say that. So I didn't.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
I wasn't going to bring up politics, but I just
saw this. I just came across this. I missed this
somehow or the weekend, Barack Obama campaigned in New Jersey
and Virginia for various people. Did not campaign for Doron
and that is not like those I don't know if
you know how the map works or if you've ever
looked at a map, but.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Pretty close there, New York. Oh yeah, New Jersey and
Virginity stuff. He get flights to New York though they
got no good airports.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
So as a gazilliona air former president, yeah, it had
been very difficult for him. He did not stop by
any of the many campaign stops for Dolron. Mom Donnie
Uhron Barack Obama a little too well, it might just
be being principled here, but also a little too good
a politician to want to be on the stage with
that guy.
Speaker 4 (34:35):
I don't have the wording in front of me, but
he made some sort of vague praise of the energy
of the campaign.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
And Mom Donnie cleverly went with a well, we're not
we don't. We don't mind, because obviously beneath a president
to weigh in on mayor races. People were quick to
point out that Barack Obama had went on stage with
many mayoral candidates for New York over the years, including
winning Bill de Blasio not that many years ago.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Well, Mam Donnie makes Obama look like Mitt Romney.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
Well, yeah, absolutely, and good for Barack Obama did not
be on a stage with an actual freaking socialist and
Israel hater, right, so that that was too far for him?
Speaker 1 (35:23):
It is, it is, it is.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
He's gotten a lot of attention. Obviously, We've talked about
it a lot. Everybody who follows politics talked about it
a lot. I still think it's being underplayed.
Speaker 4 (35:31):
That the financial capital of the planet is about to
elect a socialist right as they're.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Mayor, zor run man done.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
And it's not like people call Barack Obama socialist. Okay, fine,
is politics are way closer to that than I like.
But he didn't come up through the Socialist Party for
crying out loud and.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Run on a socialist ticket.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
He was just an extension of ventional expanding the welfare state.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Thinking this is a big deal. A socialist is gonna
be mayor of New York.
Speaker 4 (36:06):
Coming up next hour, a really entertaining trio of stories
about college today. Also, it is now possible to clone
the Neanderthal.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
But is it a good idea? Wow, I'm interested. Let's
