Speaker 1 (00:01):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty, I'm strong
and Jetty, and now he Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
First up, Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
I got us through COVID and then YadA, YadA, YadA,
Hong Kong squeeze, squeeze anyway.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
I'm back. I am born brad New Yorker.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
I love it here.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I know this city like the back of a woman's back, Mammy.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Next, we have the Democratic nominee Zorn Mundani.
Speaker 5 (00:47):
I'm happy to be here, and I know some of
you are out there scared of the idea of a
young socialist Muslim mayor, so allow me to put you
at ease by smiling after every answer in a way
that physically hurts my face.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
The Republican nominee Curtis Sleiewa.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I'm thrilled to be here and not getting shot in
the back of a yellow cab five times by the
Gattis and Gambinos, as I was famously in nineteen ninety two,
nineteen ninety three, and ninety four. But I'm the right
choice to be your next mayor. No offense to my opponents,
mister Cuomo, and I believe I'm saying this right. Zoltah
(01:26):
Rob Zombie.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
Anyway, So here's a little more from the cold open
of Saturday Night Live about the mayoral debate candidates.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
You're all running to be mayor of New York City.
So my question is, why would you want the worst
job in the world.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
As we all know, as soon as you are elected mayor,
everyone in the city immediately hates you. And in that way,
I am already one step ahead of the game.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Mister Mamma Danny, same question.
Speaker 5 (01:59):
I to be mayor so I can deliver a better
New York free healthcare, affordable housing, free Wi Fi. As mayor,
can I make that happen? I'm not sure yet, but
together we're gonna find out that the answer is no.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
And of course, as you know, my dad was brutally
kidnapped and tied to the tracks of the cyclone at
Coney Island.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
I'm sorry, what was your question? Why do you want
to be mayor?
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
I need a job. So.
Speaker 6 (02:37):
Curtis Sleeway, played by Shane gillis the hilarious comedian who
often talks about how he's got the best resume, perhaps
of anyone in America, of things that he didn't actually
end up doing. He went to West Point for Crying
Out Loud, but quit in the first couple of weeks.
Then he got a scholarship to be a de Vision
(03:00):
one wineman at a major college, but quit before the
season started.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (03:07):
Then got hired to be on Saturday Night Live, but
unhired because they found some old tweets. So, in theory,
his resume includes West Point Division I college football player
and Saturday Night Life. He didn't do any of those things,
but he qualified for them, which is really pretty impressive.
This interesting story, I find myself wondering, is he like
(03:27):
a decisive this is not for me and I shouldn't
be wasting my time with this, or is he like
a quitter and a coward?
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Now?
Speaker 6 (03:35):
Well what clearly and you know it proved to be
true all but at the time his parents were like,
what the frigg are you doing? But it turned out
because comedy is his thing. I mean, he's just he's
really really good at it, at creative person, ma'am sure enough.
The uh, it's interesting that even Saturday Night Live took
that view of mom. Donnie though, and in Barack Obama
(03:56):
not getting on stage with him over the weekend, normal
people realize what he is. It's all being driven by
young nutjobs who don't know any better. I'll give him
a pass because they're college kids, I guess. But he's
gonna get elected as a socialist who hates Israel in
New York.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yeah. The specifics of what he will say are repugnant
in a lot of ways. But the idea that a charming,
handsome young guy who's never done anything is going to
leave us lead us into a bright future just you know,
a certain amount of life experience. You're like, you know,
it's conceivable, I suppose, But it's just that's such a
roll of the dice. Now, let's go with somebody who's
(04:37):
shown that they have the skills to do the job.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Yeah, And the problem being there is portrayed on Saturday
Night Live. Your backup position is Andrew Cuomo, who is
a scumbag.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Right, We're not a company that can interview people until
we have the right person. It's an election. I mean
several recent American presidential elections had choices that some people
found unsaved.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
Andrew Cuomo's corrupt He treats women very, very badly. He's
really old and has poor judgment. Other than that, give him.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Your vote comes from a corrupt political dynasty, which is
extra repugnant.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Looking forward to Mamdanni's quote or speech tomorrow night after
he wins, and then what he has to say in
his early weeks to see if he doubles down on
his whole I'm a socialist thing.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Democratic Socialists of America support prison abolition, police defunding. They
are up with Venezuela, including Maduro. They are close with
the Cuban regime.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
He has not distanced himself from globalizing Ian Tavada, which
is amazing.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Yeah, yeah, it's unfreaking believable. All right, I promised it,
and so here it is. Wild. Video showed a drunk
Arizona judge with her pants down peeing in public with
her town official. The husband then wrestled to the ground
while trying to prevent the cops from questioning her. According
to officials, I have a Pie County Superior Court judge
(06:09):
pro tempore. Christine spelled with more wise than her normal shoffles.
In age forty two, was seen scrambling to get out
of the shrubbery As the cops arrived about one thirty
in the morning in Prescott, Arizona, officers were called by
several witnesses who saw the judge urinating in public. According
to the police, this is disgusting. Corresponding cop told the
(06:33):
judge he was so drunk she couldn't even spell her
own name, but was quick to point out that she
was a judge.
Speaker 6 (06:40):
To draft David, tell your own name. Wow, I don't
know if I've been that drunk. Yeah, this is unacceptable,
the cop told her.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Her husband, Jason, the parks and wreck manager from the
town of Chino Valley, came over to pull away his wife,
repeatedly ignoring the cops orders to leave her and stop
doing that. Oh, he is, Hey, she's just going now
leave her.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
Realize it's okay, you get it. We'll go home now,
he is, okay. The cops are like, dude, step away
when asked why. When he asked why she was being questioned,
the officer replied, quote, because I just saw her puking
and urinating, exposing herself to several people.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Now that wasn't Her husband insistent, and the cop who's
been there all the time is like, no, I was
I was watching her do those things. Her ass was bare.
She's right here. I've been watching the whole time.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
That is why she get kicked out of Denver. Though
urinating public cops said the same thing.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Jason, but they continued to try to lead his wife
away despite repeated warnings. The video showed, I'm going to
blanking throw you on the ground if you resist, the
officer told him moments before doing so. I gave you
several chances, and you don't want to listen when an
officer is giving you an order. You need to comply
and not interfere with the investigation. Drunk evon, drunker steins. Here,
(08:04):
we gotta go and try to pull his wife away again.
While he was placed in a well, The husband was
placed in a police cruiser and hauled away. Several other
officers arrived. The initial responding officer explained to fellow cops, quote,
she has her pants completely down and watching her right there.
She's peeing everywhere. A bunch of people are watching right
(08:27):
over there. He's useless. She can't even spell her name.
Forty two forty two. Yeah, now here's what get where
we get into the legal thicket. Jack. The judge was
issued a citation for urinating or defecating in public. They
couldn't nail that down. Well, I believe that is the
(08:48):
way the statute is worded. Katie.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
The face you're making, I don't know what it does,
but I feel like I feel like one of those
crimes is like I think one's a felonine, one's a misdemeanor. Precisely,
is it really? I just thought, just from a no,
no no, that's my point. The citation is for a law.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
That you're not allowed to urinate or defecate. No no, no, no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
You can't make those the same, I jokingly said, because
it's true that I was told by cops one time
to not come back to Denver because they saw me
urinating in the parking lot. Yes, if I had been
defecating in the parking lot, I would not repeat that
story on the air, kind of like half proudly, which
is weird.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
You'd have gotten a wood shampoo and deserved it in
a joking way. I'd be horrifyingly embarrassed by that. If
I had defecated in the parking lot. Oh you know
what the judge should have said, I'm sorry, I saw
I was in San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
We need a woman thousands Are they both equally as
bad or as one come clearly worse than the other?
Speaker 4 (09:54):
What?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, isn't one clearly worse than this? One is clearly
worse than the other.
Speaker 8 (10:00):
Okay, And the face I'm making is just me thinking
ill to all of this.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know. I woman drunk peeing in
my yard. That's one thing, right, If he's you know,
good point, Yeah, drop a deuce please, No, there's going
to be action taken. Wow. Yeah, they're not even close.
One's a misdemeanor, one's a felt or should be right exactly.
She resigned as judge pro tempore two days later. Wow. Quote,
(10:31):
my resignation comes after a careful consideration of current physical, medical,
and family circumstances.
Speaker 6 (10:37):
I got caught defecating in public, is the circumstances. Well,
that's a heck of a thing to give up a
job like that. I mean, that's a you know, you
start working your way up through the world to try
to be a judge.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
That's a really big deal.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
And you gave it up that easy or did somebody
tell you you're.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Gonna get booted anyway?
Speaker 6 (10:55):
So you resisted ress arrest with the cops. That that's
probably what did her in, right. I think she just
was a blob. She was just a just a peeing,
pooping blob.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, what's the what was the term in? Uh? No,
I won't use that term from pulp fiction anyway. Yeah,
she was just a useless, drunken idiot. He was cited
for resisting and arrest and interfering with a crime scene investigation.
What's to investigate an obstruction of government operations?
Speaker 6 (11:28):
Well, it's interesting, even though even though they're both hammered,
that they're both the kind of people that thought they
should be able to get away with that. Not just
her or not just him, They both thought they were
above the law.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
I wonder most of us feel like we've got a
husband or our wife who would.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Not go along with those kind of that kind of behavior.
Number one, if your drunk wife says she has to
pee before you leave the restaurant, let her go to
the bathroom. Uh. Secondly, uh, what if the husband had
just stood by tapping his foot waiting for the cops
to process his drunk ass wife, his drunk and bear
(12:13):
asked wife, she probably just would have gotten a citation
like a traffic ticket wouldn't have made the news. Probably no,
nobody would have heard any of this. So he really,
I mean, she felt the call of nature. A strip
mall is probably not the best place to answer it,
especially with multiple onlookers.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
And we don't know if it was a number one
or the Burden of Damascus, but either way, yes.
Speaker 8 (12:35):
Katie, I'm watching the video of this. She has her
ass in a planter box in front of a bunch
of people.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah, and he comes.
Speaker 8 (12:42):
Up and the cop you know, says, I just saw
your wife peeing, and you know what, said whatever, and
I'm going to talk to her over here, and he goes, no,
you're not and tries.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
To pull her up.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
I mean, the husband's a complete jerk in this entire situation.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
So it's on him.
Speaker 6 (12:57):
Darker light a day, dark dark am. But people people watching.
Speaker 8 (13:02):
Yeah, it was like outside of wherever they were hanging out,
and she is in the planner box.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
And yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no no, that was
a legal discussion. She did not unleash.
Speaker 6 (13:16):
Well, just see the the the mechanics of the way
women you would would you would be able to tell
just by.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Looking right initially what she would know. But again there
was a police investigation. I'm sure they catch a firm conclusion. Yes, right,
had on it right, whatnot? No, I don't think so.
I think just the quick eyeball and would be fine. Yeah.
So again the you know, she was hammered drunk, but
(13:44):
it was her drunky husband escalated this into ugliness. Yeah wow, Okay,
no longer to the bottom of the case because of
the poor judgment of who she married. More on the
way stayed.
Speaker 9 (14:00):
They called me a Nazi all the time. I'm not
a Nazi. I'm the opposite. I'm somebody that's saving our country.
But they call me Nazi. They have talking points, you know,
they have just talking points. And the press is largely
responsible for the fake news.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
What they've done.
Speaker 9 (14:17):
I think one of the greatest terms I've ever come
up with is fake news. What they've done to our
country is very bad. They have to change around. Now
nobody believes the fake news. Nobody believes them. I mean
they've gone You talk about popularity, you talk about approval.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Their approval numbers have gone from.
Speaker 9 (14:32):
Like in the nineties to in the teens now.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
So that's from sixty minutes last night, Nora Donald sat
down with Donald Trump for ninety minutes. You'd think in
ninety minutes there'd be some news making stuff. There wasn't really,
and I think and she went on about how it's
the first time in five years Donald Trump has set
Donald sixty minutes. He talks to the press for like
an hour every day. Yeah, so there's just it's impossible
(14:56):
to make news, like any new news. I mean, he
could have said something interview that would have been shocking,
but it would have just been happenstance, because it's not like
Joe Biden, who hasn't spoken to the media in three years.
He talks to the press every single day and asks
hostile questions or he asked hostile questions.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
I'm just kind of curious about this one though, where
they talk about China forty three Michael, if you'd be
so kind, so you.
Speaker 10 (15:19):
Just negotiate this one year trade deal with China. But
as you know, the Chinese, they think in one hundred years.
Sure they play the long game, including on our own soil.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
We played the long game too.
Speaker 10 (15:31):
Our own intelligence agencies say the Chinese have infiltrated parts
of the American power grid and their water systems, They
steal American intellectual property and American's personal information. They bought
American farmland.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
How big of a threat is China?
Speaker 9 (15:47):
It's like everybody else. We're a threat to them too.
Many of the things that you say we do to them. Look,
this is a very competitive world, especially when it comes
to China and the US, and we're always watching them
and they're always watching us. In the meantime, I think
we get along very well, and I think it's I
think we can be bigger, better and stronger by working
with them as opposed to just knocking them out.
Speaker 6 (16:11):
She asked him about Taiwan repeatedly, really pressed him on that.
He said, you know, it didn't come up talking to
she at all. He didn't bring up Taiwan at all.
Y All said he was going to bring it up,
and he didn't. But she said, would we militarily back
Taiwan if he invaded? And he said, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Going to say that. I'm not going to answer that question.
Speaker 6 (16:27):
I'm not going to let you know what my plan was,
he said, But she knows what I would do, President,
she knows what I would do.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
She said, well, what is that?
Speaker 6 (16:34):
So I'm not going to tell you, but he knows
what I would do, and they have said out loud
they will not invade Taiwan as long as I'm president.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
I really didn't like his answer to that question, but
I get it now having watched him now for years
and years. He's not going to give China an excuse
to get more militant. Hey, they do stuff, We do stuff.
I mean, you shouldn't ever say that as president. But
(17:03):
he's just looking forward to the next round of negotiations
and wants to stay, you know, wants things to stay
reasonably friendly.
Speaker 6 (17:10):
If you miss an hour or a segment to get the
podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 11 (17:16):
The White House face is a deadline to payout Snap
benefits despite the government shutdown. A federal judge order the
Trump administration to start making foodstamp payments today or partial
payments by Wednesday, but it's unclear if the White House
will comply. The Trump administration argued it can't legally use
emergency funds.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
And the Trump Administration has just announced that they will
do that. They'll comply with the judge's order, so SNAP
benefits will start going out over the next couple of days.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
So to me that.
Speaker 6 (17:50):
The judge probably did that independently of what the Democratic
Party wants or doesn't want. But if I'm the Democratic Party,
I didn't want that to happen. That was your point
of pressure. They're starting people. Yeah, and if you take
away that they're starving people, now you're back just to Okay,
so government workers aren't working, not getting their paychecks. Okay,
(18:11):
we're not all government workers. Most of us are paying
government workers not receiving money.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
And it all goes back to the whole perception slash
question of who will be blamed? And that's a question
I just don't have the energy for.
Speaker 6 (18:24):
No, and who cares? Who cares it? But this could
go on for quite a while. Tomorrow we'll set the
record longest shut down ever. It could go on for
quite a while. You know, we got a great snap benefits.
I thought, Okay, well, now something will get worked out somehow,
because they're going to find a family where the kid
(18:44):
is hungry and put them on TV with tears in
their eyes. But no, that ain't gonna happen. Money's going
out for the the hungriest out there.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yeah, we got an email. I don't know what I
did with it. But again, one of our beloved listeners
said that agreed with us that the Republicans messaging is
just not good and they've got to go with something
like all we need is five sane Democrats to vote
to reopen the government. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
Trump, even last night on sixty minutes, I thought, did
not handle that as well as he should have when
she was asking about the shutdown.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Should have made it more clear what was going on there.
But that reminds me.
Speaker 6 (19:18):
I was listening to an economic podcast over the weekend.
It was really damned interesting. I'm gonna listen to it again.
Maybe I can talk about it tomorrow more in depth.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
But it was.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
About a possible coming financial crisis in this country. There
will be another one. I mean, economics is sicklical, as
we all know, and we've had a few big crisises,
you know, in our lifetime here. Two thousand and eight
was a big one, and the stock market set records
(19:53):
last week. These things don't continue, I mean, they have
an end point to them. And then yah, add in
the fact of our thirty eight trillion dollar debt, which
that can't continue forever. Anyway, We're gonna have an economic
crisis at some point and what that will be like,
and they got into this discussion of economic crisis isn't
(20:15):
the same now as it was like in the thirties.
It's it's going to be a lot of it is
going to be comparing yourself to others.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Almost a lot of.
Speaker 6 (20:26):
Economic unhappiness in this country is just all relative to
other people. Other people have a bigger house, nicer car,
go on better vacations. It's not I'm starving and have sores.
It's just my life business cool as other people's. And
that leads you to me, and that leads you to
be unhappy.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
And so you know, I could deal with the starvation
if my skin was at all healthy, But these damn
sores just really put it over the top. Anyway, I'll
talk more about this. Likewise, if I was besored and
could afford some sav and a nice meal, I could
live with this. Put them Oh my god, honey, the
two of them is too much. I'm voting Democrat or
(21:07):
Republican next time?
Speaker 6 (21:08):
I don't know, so I'll get to that later. How's
your mood board as we head into fall? Is your
mood board?
Speaker 5 (21:14):
My?
Speaker 1 (21:14):
What now? Your mood board? Kadi, your mood board good?
What are you talking about?
Speaker 6 (21:18):
I read this in the Style section of the New
York Times over the weekend. I thought, it's really always
worth a read.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
It is it is?
Speaker 6 (21:25):
I mean, you have to talk about how people live
so much differently than you do. Well, I don't remember
what we were talking about in the show, but Joe and
I's answer is both have some kids, have some damn kids.
You'll be too busy worried about your kids, taking care
of your kids to worry about this sort of crap.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
It does solve a lot of problems. A lot of
things get squeezed out once you have children.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
I am occasionally sucked into one of the fashion articles.
I'll get a news for Alert or something like that,
and I get a couple of paragraphs in and I
always realize it's written by some thirty two year old
gay guy who uses lunch is a verb. I mean,
it has nothing to do with me.
Speaker 6 (22:04):
Right, Well, here's Francis Sola Santiago, who is probably exactly
what you just described, writing in the New York Times.
Every fall I rediscover rediscover my personal sense of style.
The season allows for so many textures, layers, and moody
colors to come into play.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
That's exactly what I was saying the other day. Stole
the words right out of my mouth.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Go lord, This season allows for textures, layers, and moody
colors to come into play, I said to mine, and.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Thank God for it. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:29):
Often referred to as the January of fashion, I didn't
know that fall is the January of fashion. It kind
of kicks off the fashion season.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
I guess. Okay.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
I see autumn as a superior time for a closet,
audit and refresh. We all do that, right, Once a
year we do our closet, audiit.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
And refresh during the January of fashion.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
Yes, for me, a refresh starts not in stores or
the depths of my wardrobe, but with my mood board.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
That's mood board. It's one word. I got to look
for mine. I left it here, sore.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
My seasonal pinterest boards include much more than runway images.
This is what this person does every season to figure
out what to wear.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I'm sorry, is this a fellow writing?
Speaker 4 (23:15):
No?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Actually, this is a woman in this case? Yeah, okay,
it is a woman. I think.
Speaker 6 (23:19):
I collect shots from movie stills and album covers that
remind me of the season, celebrity street style, old brand campaigns,
color swatches, even random screenshots I found on my phone.
Then I connect the dots between all the images I've collected,
figuring out what the overall mood is. Are there any
specific color styles and pieces that stand out? And that's
(23:42):
like a murder board, like the only murders in the building,
but it's a mood board. That's how she puts together
her mood board to then do her audit of her
closet for what she's going to wear this fall, which
is the January of us mentioned previous.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Doing way too much here January. That sounds like a
hell of a lot of work.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
Yeah, something I find. I found that interesting. I hope
you do too. That there are people that live that way.
I don't know what percentage of people. It must obviously
it's enough people in New York that you have a
person that gets paid to write this sort of stuff
for the New York Times, there must be enough people
to follow it. That just it couldn't be more foreign
to me then, and my family and my upbringing that
(24:28):
I just you don't even know if I can come
up with an example of something that was different civilization,
different culture.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Sure, yeah, a bad female for this.
Speaker 8 (24:37):
As soon as it starts getting cold, it's sweat weather
and that's it.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Sweat. Yeah. It goes on and on like that with
the mood board. Yeah, that sounds so complicated. Is there
any pictures of the mood board? Is it large?
Speaker 6 (24:54):
Yeah? Yeah, they put it up on a wall. I
can make an actual board of it. And it's like
the taking in the photos from different as they just
explained here, and then the color swat.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Album covers albums. Oh, it's called mood boarding.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
Mood boarding is a Yeah, it's it's thing that you
do every season to do an audit on your closet.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Tell me more, Katie, I'm seriously fascinating. I can't. I
don't understand it. Oh, because it's like studying some African
tribe that puts place in their lips or something like that.
It really is.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
Yeah, it is that level of different from my upbringing.
And I guess my question would be, am I closer
to doing life right? Or are they closer to doing
life right?
Speaker 5 (25:37):
You are?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah? I think that the way you do it it's
more realistic. This is excessive. I've got to admit, and
there are many, many subcultures like this. This person takes
this very very seriously. When they do well at it,
they feel fulfilled in their life, true, which is nothing.
And they're proselytizing about how to do this helping others.
(26:03):
And I'll bet they feel good about that too. And
on the other hand, I'm sure they feel just sneering
contempt for those who don't.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
So would that person like when that person looks at
somebody who's going to the home depot on a Saturday
in sweats, ritty tennis shoes and the same hoodie that
they've worn in.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
The last five years with a Ford war cap on.
Do they think just a pair of running shoes and
a pair of jeans and that very hoodie you discussed.
I mean, do you need not look like you just
survived a tornado?
Speaker 6 (26:43):
Do they look at that person and think what a sad,
unfulfilled life.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
I don't think they're often in home depots in the suburbs.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Yeah for one thing, well, okay, but if they were
in a position to see that person.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Yeah, yeah, I think they would think that these are
a bunch of unwashed, common dopes living a life that
they have contempt for yeah.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
Well right, beyond just I don't agree with their fashion sense,
but into they're living a sad, unfulfilled life.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Yeah. I've known both personally and like once removed people
like that, and they believe their life is so much
more sophisticated and refined and just cool and important compared
to the plane dressed morons schlepping around with kids in
(27:41):
the summer.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
Cool. Yeah, so I guess what I'm trying to get to.
There's cool, there's refined. Those are things, but I mean
like meaningful, deep that sort of stuff, because I get
the you know, you dress cooler than somebody else, Fine,
but is there any meaning there? And do they feel
like they're getting meaning out of the fact that they're
(28:04):
putting together a mood board for season and picking different
clothes to wear.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
Well, well, I don't. Maybe you miss this. They're refining
both their shades and their textures, so it pass much
deeper than it sounds. Enough.
Speaker 6 (28:24):
Maybe this person has kids, but like, if they're not
raising kids.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Friends, the kid is neglected.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
Trust if they if they aren't raising kids but well dressed,
I think of them, what they would think of me.
I think you're living a sad and meaningless, meaningless life
where you're putting together mood boards every fall to slightly
change the color of your pants, as opposed to doing,
you know, the really in the texture, meaningful things of life.
So I mean, I guess it works both ways. I
(28:50):
just I just find mine easier to back up than
theirs in terms of whose life is meaningful news isn't.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
If it were a debate, I would not love their chances.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
And I know this will shock you, but it does
not appear that she has children colors.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
And textures, as Joe keeps pointing out, because it's not
just one of the us.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
Now, wow, how much time would it take just to
put together the mood board? Let alone go out and
shop for the clothes that match it.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
And you know what I need? And it's funny, my
wife said something, but virtually we like stole the words
out of each other's mouths the other day. What I
need is some sort of high tech hangar that keeps
track of how long it's been since you've removed an
article of clothing from it thrown it upon your carcass.
I was thinking about Pennett's point, like a car that's
(29:41):
been part too long and the meters run out, there'd
be a flashing red light. Dumb ass, you haven't worn
this golf shirt in three years? Why do you have
it or longer?
Speaker 6 (29:51):
My closet like is packed to the gills, and I
struggle to get my jacket that I wear every day
in there, and I have to squish everything together to get
my jacket in there. I'm like ninety nine percent of
the stuff I'm squishing together. I don't know if I
I've worn it in years. I know not since I
moved into this house, which is a year and a
half ago.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
So why is it there? My mood board, I've really
got to make a mood board, you know what. I
really I desperately need some sarcastic gay guy with the
mood board to come in my closet and say, let's
take a look at this. Do you expect it to
be hired as a low level loan officer at a
bank anytime soon? No, Well, then get rid of all
(30:31):
these dress shirts. You never wear them. Well, my consultants price.
My consult would probably.
Speaker 6 (30:35):
Say, do you expect to find a time machine and
go back fifteen years and then wear this?
Speaker 7 (30:40):
Or not?
Speaker 6 (30:41):
Perhaps you should get rid of it since you haven't
worn it in fifteen years, and that's the last time
anybody wanted to see it.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
You have three different pair of old khakis that you
say you're keeping for lawn work, yard work. How often
do you do yard work?
Speaker 6 (31:00):
Oh my god, I gotta do that today. I just
got to take them to the good will. And the
fact that I spent good money on them and don't
wear them, that's just sat calls to make them and
that's a fallacy. I'm not doing anybody any good by
keeping these in my closet taking up space.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Do it with the seasons, That's what I do.
Speaker 8 (31:17):
So, like right when we're getting like, right when we're
coming up on the end of winter, I go, okay,
I didn't wear any of.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
That's perfect because the homeless has got their mood board
and they want to dress for the falls.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
And all of the things. Of course, the end of
the winter is fashion summer.
Speaker 6 (31:34):
This is fashion January. So I got to jump on
it right now. We will finish Strong.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
Next arm Strong and getti.
Speaker 11 (31:45):
What do I know?
Speaker 1 (31:47):
This is the moment the Morgan family's docile.
Speaker 12 (31:49):
Halloween decoration transformed into a runaway pumpkin giving mom Katie
a spirited scare.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
What was going through your mind at this point?
Speaker 10 (31:58):
I thought it was going to take out the neighborhood,
hit the cars.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
I was just thinking that I was going to be
dealing with the.
Speaker 10 (32:04):
Aftermath of the catastrophic pumpkin going down the streets.
Speaker 12 (32:08):
After twelve minutes, Katie manages to wrangle the runaway by
unzipping its side.
Speaker 6 (32:14):
I've had that happen in the paston did not happen
this year with a giant inflatable pumpkin and ran away
in the wind. Luckily I didn't got any windy days
this year, so did not have that problem. I just
saw mom. Donnie went to six nightclubs Saturday night. Friday,
went out trick or treating the cameras at his side,
looked like a regular guy. And then Saturday night he
was at six different nightclubs in which he was announced
(32:35):
by the DJ and the crowd.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Went wild with enthusiasm that he was there, did a
little dancing and talking about how come Tuesday night, we'll
take this city back.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
No more paying for buses, no more hunger, no more
whatever he's promising.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
I say, no vote until you're thirty two. I was
gonna go with thirty, but let's be safe. He just
turned thirty four. I don't I don't know.
Speaker 6 (33:03):
The young thing doesn't bother me near as much as
the you know, socialism.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
No, I'm talking about voters, not candidates. Oh he's thirty four,
he's old enough, but you can't vote until you're thirty two. Yeah.
I know.
Speaker 6 (33:17):
It drives my kids crazy that I call a thirty
year old a kid. But Katie, you're you're lucky, You're
you're close to being a kid.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Uh. I don't feel like it. Amen to that, sister.
You know what I can't believe we didn't get to today, Jack,
given your enthusiasm for the story, was the mom in
Mississippi gunned down one of those diseased research monkeys. Yeah,
came into her backyard threaten her kids for Bluey Bluey.
(33:46):
I would hate to shoot a monkey, even if it's
got to wait thirty Harry on that disease dripping monkey. Well,
you need to man up. Admit me. Quorters to this
history who plague like your humble.
Speaker 7 (33:59):
Patience, Pray gently to hear, kindly to judge the final
thoughts of Armstrong and Diddy.

of pre marital set That's right.

mom Donnie and they all have zero idea about politics
or what.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
He's gonna do. That's amazing. Yeah, you need a poll test.
Has that been tried? Jack? A final thought for us.
Speaker 6 (34:53):
Yeah, if you're dig politics, tomorrow's gonna be a tough
day to take and if you lean right, it's gonna
be it's gonna be rough.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Profit Monster in Virginia gets selected too, with fantasizing about
the deaths of the children as opponent. It's gonna be
a rough day. My final thought is between football and
the World Series. Oh, I've got to stop watching sports.
I know what you mean, Jack, I was the next night.
I was like, oh, there's no World Series game. That's right,
but it's it's just too much, too much to everything.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
First up, Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
I got us through COVID and then YadA, YadA, YadA,
Hong Kong squeeze, squeeze anyway.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
I'm back. I am born brad New Yorker.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
I love it here.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I know this city like the back of a woman's back, Mammy.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Next, we have the Democratic nominee Zorn Mundani.
Speaker 5 (00:47):
I'm happy to be here, and I know some of
you are out there scared of the idea of a
young socialist Muslim mayor, so allow me to put you
at ease by smiling after every answer in a way
that physically hurts my face.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
The Republican nominee Curtis Sleiewa.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I'm thrilled to be here and not getting shot in
the back of a yellow cab five times by the
Gattis and Gambinos, as I was famously in nineteen ninety two,
nineteen ninety three, and ninety four. But I'm the right
choice to be your next mayor. No offense to my opponents,
mister Cuomo, and I believe I'm saying this right. Zoltah
(01:26):
Rob Zombie.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
Anyway, So here's a little more from the cold open
of Saturday Night Live about the mayoral debate candidates.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
You're all running to be mayor of New York City.
So my question is, why would you want the worst
job in the world.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
As we all know, as soon as you are elected mayor,
everyone in the city immediately hates you. And in that way,
I am already one step ahead of the game.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Mister Mamma Danny, same question.
Speaker 5 (01:59):
I to be mayor so I can deliver a better
New York free healthcare, affordable housing, free Wi Fi. As mayor,
can I make that happen? I'm not sure yet, but
together we're gonna find out that the answer is no.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
And of course, as you know, my dad was brutally
kidnapped and tied to the tracks of the cyclone at
Coney Island.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
I'm sorry, what was your question? Why do you want
to be mayor?
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
I need a job. So.
Speaker 6 (02:37):
Curtis Sleeway, played by Shane gillis the hilarious comedian who
often talks about how he's got the best resume, perhaps
of anyone in America, of things that he didn't actually
end up doing. He went to West Point for Crying
Out Loud, but quit in the first couple of weeks.
Then he got a scholarship to be a de Vision
(03:00):
one wineman at a major college, but quit before the
season started.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (03:07):
Then got hired to be on Saturday Night Live, but
unhired because they found some old tweets. So, in theory,
his resume includes West Point Division I college football player
and Saturday Night Life. He didn't do any of those things,
but he qualified for them, which is really pretty impressive.
This interesting story, I find myself wondering, is he like
(03:27):
a decisive this is not for me and I shouldn't
be wasting my time with this, or is he like
a quitter and a coward?
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Now?
Speaker 6 (03:35):
Well what clearly and you know it proved to be
true all but at the time his parents were like,
what the frigg are you doing? But it turned out
because comedy is his thing. I mean, he's just he's
really really good at it, at creative person, ma'am sure enough.
The uh, it's interesting that even Saturday Night Live took
that view of mom. Donnie though, and in Barack Obama
(03:56):
not getting on stage with him over the weekend, normal
people realize what he is. It's all being driven by
young nutjobs who don't know any better. I'll give him
a pass because they're college kids, I guess. But he's
gonna get elected as a socialist who hates Israel in
New York.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Yeah. The specifics of what he will say are repugnant
in a lot of ways. But the idea that a charming,
handsome young guy who's never done anything is going to
leave us lead us into a bright future just you know,
a certain amount of life experience. You're like, you know,
it's conceivable, I suppose, But it's just that's such a
roll of the dice. Now, let's go with somebody who's
(04:37):
shown that they have the skills to do the job.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Yeah, And the problem being there is portrayed on Saturday
Night Live. Your backup position is Andrew Cuomo, who is
a scumbag.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Right, We're not a company that can interview people until
we have the right person. It's an election. I mean
several recent American presidential elections had choices that some people
found unsaved.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
Andrew Cuomo's corrupt He treats women very, very badly. He's
really old and has poor judgment. Other than that, give him.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Your vote comes from a corrupt political dynasty, which is
extra repugnant.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Looking forward to Mamdanni's quote or speech tomorrow night after
he wins, and then what he has to say in
his early weeks to see if he doubles down on
his whole I'm a socialist thing.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Democratic Socialists of America support prison abolition, police defunding. They
are up with Venezuela, including Maduro. They are close with
the Cuban regime.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
He has not distanced himself from globalizing Ian Tavada, which
is amazing.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Yeah, yeah, it's unfreaking believable. All right, I promised it,
and so here it is. Wild. Video showed a drunk
Arizona judge with her pants down peeing in public with
her town official. The husband then wrestled to the ground
while trying to prevent the cops from questioning her. According
to officials, I have a Pie County Superior Court judge
(06:09):
pro tempore. Christine spelled with more wise than her normal shoffles.
In age forty two, was seen scrambling to get out
of the shrubbery As the cops arrived about one thirty
in the morning in Prescott, Arizona, officers were called by
several witnesses who saw the judge urinating in public. According
to the police, this is disgusting. Corresponding cop told the
(06:33):
judge he was so drunk she couldn't even spell her
own name, but was quick to point out that she
was a judge.
Speaker 6 (06:40):
To draft David, tell your own name. Wow, I don't
know if I've been that drunk. Yeah, this is unacceptable,
the cop told her.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Her husband, Jason, the parks and wreck manager from the
town of Chino Valley, came over to pull away his wife,
repeatedly ignoring the cops orders to leave her and stop
doing that. Oh, he is, Hey, she's just going now
leave her.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
Realize it's okay, you get it. We'll go home now,
he is, okay. The cops are like, dude, step away
when asked why. When he asked why she was being questioned,
the officer replied, quote, because I just saw her puking
and urinating, exposing herself to several people.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Now that wasn't Her husband insistent, and the cop who's
been there all the time is like, no, I was
I was watching her do those things. Her ass was bare.
She's right here. I've been watching the whole time.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
That is why she get kicked out of Denver. Though
urinating public cops said the same thing.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Jason, but they continued to try to lead his wife
away despite repeated warnings. The video showed, I'm going to
blanking throw you on the ground if you resist, the
officer told him moments before doing so. I gave you
several chances, and you don't want to listen when an
officer is giving you an order. You need to comply
and not interfere with the investigation. Drunk evon, drunker steins. Here,
(08:04):
we gotta go and try to pull his wife away again.
While he was placed in a well, The husband was
placed in a police cruiser and hauled away. Several other
officers arrived. The initial responding officer explained to fellow cops, quote,
she has her pants completely down and watching her right there.
She's peeing everywhere. A bunch of people are watching right
(08:27):
over there. He's useless. She can't even spell her name.
Forty two forty two. Yeah, now here's what get where
we get into the legal thicket. Jack. The judge was
issued a citation for urinating or defecating in public. They
couldn't nail that down. Well, I believe that is the
(08:48):
way the statute is worded. Katie.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
The face you're making, I don't know what it does,
but I feel like I feel like one of those
crimes is like I think one's a felonine, one's a misdemeanor. Precisely,
is it really? I just thought, just from a no,
no no, that's my point. The citation is for a law.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
That you're not allowed to urinate or defecate. No no, no, no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
You can't make those the same, I jokingly said, because
it's true that I was told by cops one time
to not come back to Denver because they saw me
urinating in the parking lot. Yes, if I had been
defecating in the parking lot, I would not repeat that
story on the air, kind of like half proudly, which
is weird.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
You'd have gotten a wood shampoo and deserved it in
a joking way. I'd be horrifyingly embarrassed by that. If
I had defecated in the parking lot. Oh you know
what the judge should have said, I'm sorry, I saw
I was in San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
We need a woman thousands Are they both equally as
bad or as one come clearly worse than the other?
Speaker 4 (09:54):
What?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, isn't one clearly worse than this? One is clearly
worse than the other.
Speaker 8 (10:00):
Okay, And the face I'm making is just me thinking
ill to all of this.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know. I woman drunk peeing in
my yard. That's one thing, right, If he's you know,
good point, Yeah, drop a deuce please, No, there's going
to be action taken. Wow. Yeah, they're not even close.
One's a misdemeanor, one's a felt or should be right exactly.
She resigned as judge pro tempore two days later. Wow. Quote,
(10:31):
my resignation comes after a careful consideration of current physical, medical,
and family circumstances.
Speaker 6 (10:37):
I got caught defecating in public, is the circumstances. Well,
that's a heck of a thing to give up a
job like that. I mean, that's a you know, you
start working your way up through the world to try
to be a judge.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
That's a really big deal.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
And you gave it up that easy or did somebody
tell you you're.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Gonna get booted anyway?
Speaker 6 (10:55):
So you resisted ress arrest with the cops. That that's
probably what did her in, right. I think she just
was a blob. She was just a just a peeing,
pooping blob.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, what's the what was the term in? Uh? No,
I won't use that term from pulp fiction anyway. Yeah,
she was just a useless, drunken idiot. He was cited
for resisting and arrest and interfering with a crime scene investigation.
What's to investigate an obstruction of government operations?
Speaker 6 (11:28):
Well, it's interesting, even though even though they're both hammered,
that they're both the kind of people that thought they
should be able to get away with that. Not just
her or not just him, They both thought they were
above the law.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
I wonder most of us feel like we've got a
husband or our wife who would.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Not go along with those kind of that kind of behavior.
Number one, if your drunk wife says she has to
pee before you leave the restaurant, let her go to
the bathroom. Uh. Secondly, uh, what if the husband had
just stood by tapping his foot waiting for the cops
to process his drunk ass wife, his drunk and bear
(12:13):
asked wife, she probably just would have gotten a citation
like a traffic ticket wouldn't have made the news. Probably no,
nobody would have heard any of this. So he really,
I mean, she felt the call of nature. A strip
mall is probably not the best place to answer it,
especially with multiple onlookers.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
And we don't know if it was a number one
or the Burden of Damascus, but either way, yes.
Speaker 8 (12:35):
Katie, I'm watching the video of this. She has her
ass in a planter box in front of a bunch
of people.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah, and he comes.
Speaker 8 (12:42):
Up and the cop you know, says, I just saw
your wife peeing, and you know what, said whatever, and
I'm going to talk to her over here, and he goes, no,
you're not and tries.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
To pull her up.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
I mean, the husband's a complete jerk in this entire situation.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
So it's on him.
Speaker 6 (12:57):
Darker light a day, dark dark am. But people people watching.
Speaker 8 (13:02):
Yeah, it was like outside of wherever they were hanging out,
and she is in the planner box.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
And yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no no, that was
a legal discussion. She did not unleash.
Speaker 6 (13:16):
Well, just see the the the mechanics of the way
women you would would you would be able to tell
just by.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Looking right initially what she would know. But again there
was a police investigation. I'm sure they catch a firm conclusion. Yes, right,
had on it right, whatnot? No, I don't think so.
I think just the quick eyeball and would be fine. Yeah.
So again the you know, she was hammered drunk, but
(13:44):
it was her drunky husband escalated this into ugliness. Yeah wow, Okay,
no longer to the bottom of the case because of
the poor judgment of who she married. More on the
way stayed.
Speaker 9 (14:00):
They called me a Nazi all the time. I'm not
a Nazi. I'm the opposite. I'm somebody that's saving our country.
But they call me Nazi. They have talking points, you know,
they have just talking points. And the press is largely
responsible for the fake news.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
What they've done.
Speaker 9 (14:17):
I think one of the greatest terms I've ever come
up with is fake news. What they've done to our
country is very bad. They have to change around. Now
nobody believes the fake news. Nobody believes them. I mean
they've gone You talk about popularity, you talk about approval.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Their approval numbers have gone from.
Speaker 9 (14:32):
Like in the nineties to in the teens now.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
So that's from sixty minutes last night, Nora Donald sat
down with Donald Trump for ninety minutes. You'd think in
ninety minutes there'd be some news making stuff. There wasn't really,
and I think and she went on about how it's
the first time in five years Donald Trump has set
Donald sixty minutes. He talks to the press for like
an hour every day. Yeah, so there's just it's impossible
(14:56):
to make news, like any new news. I mean, he
could have said something interview that would have been shocking,
but it would have just been happenstance, because it's not like
Joe Biden, who hasn't spoken to the media in three years.
He talks to the press every single day and asks
hostile questions or he asked hostile questions.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
I'm just kind of curious about this one though, where
they talk about China forty three Michael, if you'd be
so kind, so you.
Speaker 10 (15:19):
Just negotiate this one year trade deal with China. But
as you know, the Chinese, they think in one hundred years.
Sure they play the long game, including on our own soil.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
We played the long game too.
Speaker 10 (15:31):
Our own intelligence agencies say the Chinese have infiltrated parts
of the American power grid and their water systems, They
steal American intellectual property and American's personal information. They bought
American farmland.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
How big of a threat is China?
Speaker 9 (15:47):
It's like everybody else. We're a threat to them too.
Many of the things that you say we do to them. Look,
this is a very competitive world, especially when it comes
to China and the US, and we're always watching them
and they're always watching us. In the meantime, I think
we get along very well, and I think it's I
think we can be bigger, better and stronger by working
with them as opposed to just knocking them out.
Speaker 6 (16:11):
She asked him about Taiwan repeatedly, really pressed him on that.
He said, you know, it didn't come up talking to
she at all. He didn't bring up Taiwan at all.
Y All said he was going to bring it up,
and he didn't. But she said, would we militarily back
Taiwan if he invaded? And he said, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Going to say that. I'm not going to answer that question.
Speaker 6 (16:27):
I'm not going to let you know what my plan was,
he said, But she knows what I would do, President,
she knows what I would do.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
She said, well, what is that?
Speaker 6 (16:34):
So I'm not going to tell you, but he knows
what I would do, and they have said out loud
they will not invade Taiwan as long as I'm president.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
I really didn't like his answer to that question, but
I get it now having watched him now for years
and years. He's not going to give China an excuse
to get more militant. Hey, they do stuff, We do stuff.
I mean, you shouldn't ever say that as president. But
(17:03):
he's just looking forward to the next round of negotiations
and wants to stay, you know, wants things to stay
reasonably friendly.
Speaker 6 (17:10):
If you miss an hour or a segment to get the
podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 11 (17:16):
The White House face is a deadline to payout Snap
benefits despite the government shutdown. A federal judge order the
Trump administration to start making foodstamp payments today or partial
payments by Wednesday, but it's unclear if the White House
will comply. The Trump administration argued it can't legally use
emergency funds.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
And the Trump Administration has just announced that they will
do that. They'll comply with the judge's order, so SNAP
benefits will start going out over the next couple of days.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
So to me that.
Speaker 6 (17:50):
The judge probably did that independently of what the Democratic
Party wants or doesn't want. But if I'm the Democratic Party,
I didn't want that to happen. That was your point
of pressure. They're starting people. Yeah, and if you take
away that they're starving people, now you're back just to Okay,
so government workers aren't working, not getting their paychecks. Okay,
(18:11):
we're not all government workers. Most of us are paying
government workers not receiving money.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
And it all goes back to the whole perception slash
question of who will be blamed? And that's a question
I just don't have the energy for.
Speaker 6 (18:24):
No, and who cares? Who cares it? But this could
go on for quite a while. Tomorrow we'll set the
record longest shut down ever. It could go on for
quite a while. You know, we got a great snap benefits.
I thought, Okay, well, now something will get worked out somehow,
because they're going to find a family where the kid
(18:44):
is hungry and put them on TV with tears in
their eyes. But no, that ain't gonna happen. Money's going
out for the the hungriest out there.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yeah, we got an email. I don't know what I
did with it. But again, one of our beloved listeners
said that agreed with us that the Republicans messaging is
just not good and they've got to go with something
like all we need is five sane Democrats to vote
to reopen the government. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
Trump, even last night on sixty minutes, I thought, did
not handle that as well as he should have when
she was asking about the shutdown.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Should have made it more clear what was going on there.
But that reminds me.
Speaker 6 (19:18):
I was listening to an economic podcast over the weekend.
It was really damned interesting. I'm gonna listen to it again.
Maybe I can talk about it tomorrow more in depth.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
But it was.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
About a possible coming financial crisis in this country. There
will be another one. I mean, economics is sicklical, as
we all know, and we've had a few big crisises,
you know, in our lifetime here. Two thousand and eight
was a big one, and the stock market set records
(19:53):
last week. These things don't continue, I mean, they have
an end point to them. And then yah, add in
the fact of our thirty eight trillion dollar debt, which
that can't continue forever. Anyway, We're gonna have an economic
crisis at some point and what that will be like,
and they got into this discussion of economic crisis isn't
(20:15):
the same now as it was like in the thirties.
It's it's going to be a lot of it is
going to be comparing yourself to others.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Almost a lot of.
Speaker 6 (20:26):
Economic unhappiness in this country is just all relative to
other people. Other people have a bigger house, nicer car,
go on better vacations. It's not I'm starving and have sores.
It's just my life business cool as other people's. And
that leads you to me, and that leads you to
be unhappy.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
And so you know, I could deal with the starvation
if my skin was at all healthy, But these damn
sores just really put it over the top. Anyway, I'll
talk more about this. Likewise, if I was besored and
could afford some sav and a nice meal, I could
live with this. Put them Oh my god, honey, the
two of them is too much. I'm voting Democrat or
(21:07):
Republican next time?
Speaker 6 (21:08):
I don't know, so I'll get to that later. How's
your mood board as we head into fall? Is your
mood board?
Speaker 5 (21:14):
My?
Speaker 1 (21:14):
What now? Your mood board? Kadi, your mood board good?
What are you talking about?
Speaker 6 (21:18):
I read this in the Style section of the New
York Times over the weekend. I thought, it's really always
worth a read.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
It is it is?
Speaker 6 (21:25):
I mean, you have to talk about how people live
so much differently than you do. Well, I don't remember
what we were talking about in the show, but Joe and
I's answer is both have some kids, have some damn kids.
You'll be too busy worried about your kids, taking care
of your kids to worry about this sort of crap.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
It does solve a lot of problems. A lot of
things get squeezed out once you have children.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
I am occasionally sucked into one of the fashion articles.
I'll get a news for Alert or something like that,
and I get a couple of paragraphs in and I
always realize it's written by some thirty two year old
gay guy who uses lunch is a verb. I mean,
it has nothing to do with me.
Speaker 6 (22:04):
Right, Well, here's Francis Sola Santiago, who is probably exactly
what you just described, writing in the New York Times.
Every fall I rediscover rediscover my personal sense of style.
The season allows for so many textures, layers, and moody
colors to come into play.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
That's exactly what I was saying the other day. Stole
the words right out of my mouth.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Go lord, This season allows for textures, layers, and moody
colors to come into play, I said to mine, and.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
Thank God for it. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:29):
Often referred to as the January of fashion, I didn't
know that fall is the January of fashion. It kind
of kicks off the fashion season.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
I guess. Okay.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
I see autumn as a superior time for a closet,
audit and refresh. We all do that, right, Once a
year we do our closet, audiit.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
And refresh during the January of fashion.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
Yes, for me, a refresh starts not in stores or
the depths of my wardrobe, but with my mood board.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
That's mood board. It's one word. I got to look
for mine. I left it here, sore.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
My seasonal pinterest boards include much more than runway images.
This is what this person does every season to figure
out what to wear.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I'm sorry, is this a fellow writing?
Speaker 4 (23:15):
No?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Actually, this is a woman in this case? Yeah, okay,
it is a woman. I think.
Speaker 6 (23:19):
I collect shots from movie stills and album covers that
remind me of the season, celebrity street style, old brand campaigns,
color swatches, even random screenshots I found on my phone.
Then I connect the dots between all the images I've collected,
figuring out what the overall mood is. Are there any
specific color styles and pieces that stand out? And that's
(23:42):
like a murder board, like the only murders in the building,
but it's a mood board. That's how she puts together
her mood board to then do her audit of her
closet for what she's going to wear this fall, which
is the January of us mentioned previous.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Doing way too much here January. That sounds like a
hell of a lot of work.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
Yeah, something I find. I found that interesting. I hope
you do too. That there are people that live that way.
I don't know what percentage of people. It must obviously
it's enough people in New York that you have a
person that gets paid to write this sort of stuff
for the New York Times, there must be enough people
to follow it. That just it couldn't be more foreign
to me then, and my family and my upbringing that
(24:28):
I just you don't even know if I can come
up with an example of something that was different civilization,
different culture.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Sure, yeah, a bad female for this.
Speaker 8 (24:37):
As soon as it starts getting cold, it's sweat weather
and that's it.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Sweat. Yeah. It goes on and on like that with
the mood board. Yeah, that sounds so complicated. Is there
any pictures of the mood board? Is it large?
Speaker 6 (24:54):
Yeah? Yeah, they put it up on a wall. I
can make an actual board of it. And it's like
the taking in the photos from different as they just
explained here, and then the color swat.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Album covers albums. Oh, it's called mood boarding.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
Mood boarding is a Yeah, it's it's thing that you
do every season to do an audit on your closet.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Tell me more, Katie, I'm seriously fascinating. I can't. I
don't understand it. Oh, because it's like studying some African
tribe that puts place in their lips or something like that.
It really is.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
Yeah, it is that level of different from my upbringing.
And I guess my question would be, am I closer
to doing life right? Or are they closer to doing
life right?
Speaker 5 (25:37):
You are?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah? I think that the way you do it it's
more realistic. This is excessive. I've got to admit, and
there are many, many subcultures like this. This person takes
this very very seriously. When they do well at it,
they feel fulfilled in their life, true, which is nothing.
And they're proselytizing about how to do this helping others.
(26:03):
And I'll bet they feel good about that too. And
on the other hand, I'm sure they feel just sneering
contempt for those who don't.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
So would that person like when that person looks at
somebody who's going to the home depot on a Saturday
in sweats, ritty tennis shoes and the same hoodie that
they've worn in.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
The last five years with a Ford war cap on.
Do they think just a pair of running shoes and
a pair of jeans and that very hoodie you discussed.
I mean, do you need not look like you just
survived a tornado?
Speaker 6 (26:43):
Do they look at that person and think what a sad,
unfulfilled life.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
I don't think they're often in home depots in the suburbs.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Yeah for one thing, well, okay, but if they were
in a position to see that person.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Yeah, yeah, I think they would think that these are
a bunch of unwashed, common dopes living a life that
they have contempt for yeah.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
Well right, beyond just I don't agree with their fashion sense,
but into they're living a sad, unfulfilled life.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Yeah. I've known both personally and like once removed people
like that, and they believe their life is so much
more sophisticated and refined and just cool and important compared
to the plane dressed morons schlepping around with kids in
(27:41):
the summer.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
Cool. Yeah, so I guess what I'm trying to get to.
There's cool, there's refined. Those are things, but I mean
like meaningful, deep that sort of stuff, because I get
the you know, you dress cooler than somebody else, Fine,
but is there any meaning there? And do they feel
like they're getting meaning out of the fact that they're
(28:04):
putting together a mood board for season and picking different
clothes to wear.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
Well, well, I don't. Maybe you miss this. They're refining
both their shades and their textures, so it pass much
deeper than it sounds. Enough.
Speaker 6 (28:24):
Maybe this person has kids, but like, if they're not
raising kids.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Friends, the kid is neglected.
Speaker 6 (28:30):
Trust if they if they aren't raising kids but well dressed,
I think of them, what they would think of me.
I think you're living a sad and meaningless, meaningless life
where you're putting together mood boards every fall to slightly
change the color of your pants, as opposed to doing,
you know, the really in the texture, meaningful things of life.
So I mean, I guess it works both ways. I
(28:50):
just I just find mine easier to back up than
theirs in terms of whose life is meaningful news isn't.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
If it were a debate, I would not love their chances.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
And I know this will shock you, but it does
not appear that she has children colors.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
And textures, as Joe keeps pointing out, because it's not
just one of the us.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
Now, wow, how much time would it take just to
put together the mood board? Let alone go out and
shop for the clothes that match it.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
And you know what I need? And it's funny, my
wife said something, but virtually we like stole the words
out of each other's mouths the other day. What I
need is some sort of high tech hangar that keeps
track of how long it's been since you've removed an
article of clothing from it thrown it upon your carcass.
I was thinking about Pennett's point, like a car that's
(29:41):
been part too long and the meters run out, there'd
be a flashing red light. Dumb ass, you haven't worn
this golf shirt in three years? Why do you have
it or longer?
Speaker 6 (29:51):
My closet like is packed to the gills, and I
struggle to get my jacket that I wear every day
in there, and I have to squish everything together to get
my jacket in there. I'm like ninety nine percent of
the stuff I'm squishing together. I don't know if I
I've worn it in years. I know not since I
moved into this house, which is a year and a
half ago.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
So why is it there? My mood board, I've really
got to make a mood board, you know what. I
really I desperately need some sarcastic gay guy with the
mood board to come in my closet and say, let's
take a look at this. Do you expect it to
be hired as a low level loan officer at a
bank anytime soon? No, Well, then get rid of all
(30:31):
these dress shirts. You never wear them. Well, my consultants price.
My consult would probably.
Speaker 6 (30:35):
Say, do you expect to find a time machine and
go back fifteen years and then wear this?
Speaker 7 (30:40):
Or not?
Speaker 6 (30:41):
Perhaps you should get rid of it since you haven't
worn it in fifteen years, and that's the last time
anybody wanted to see it.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
You have three different pair of old khakis that you
say you're keeping for lawn work, yard work. How often
do you do yard work?
Speaker 6 (31:00):
Oh my god, I gotta do that today. I just
got to take them to the good will. And the
fact that I spent good money on them and don't
wear them, that's just sat calls to make them and
that's a fallacy. I'm not doing anybody any good by
keeping these in my closet taking up space.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Do it with the seasons, That's what I do.
Speaker 8 (31:17):
So, like right when we're getting like, right when we're
coming up on the end of winter, I go, okay,
I didn't wear any of.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
That's perfect because the homeless has got their mood board
and they want to dress for the falls.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
And all of the things. Of course, the end of
the winter is fashion summer.
Speaker 6 (31:34):
This is fashion January. So I got to jump on
it right now. We will finish Strong.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
Next arm Strong and getti.
Speaker 11 (31:45):
What do I know?
Speaker 1 (31:47):
This is the moment the Morgan family's docile.
Speaker 12 (31:49):
Halloween decoration transformed into a runaway pumpkin giving mom Katie
a spirited scare.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
What was going through your mind at this point?
Speaker 10 (31:58):
I thought it was going to take out the neighborhood,
hit the cars.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
I was just thinking that I was going to be
dealing with the.
Speaker 10 (32:04):
Aftermath of the catastrophic pumpkin going down the streets.
Speaker 12 (32:08):
After twelve minutes, Katie manages to wrangle the runaway by
unzipping its side.
Speaker 6 (32:14):
I've had that happen in the paston did not happen
this year with a giant inflatable pumpkin and ran away
in the wind. Luckily I didn't got any windy days
this year, so did not have that problem. I just
saw mom. Donnie went to six nightclubs Saturday night. Friday,
went out trick or treating the cameras at his side,
looked like a regular guy. And then Saturday night he
was at six different nightclubs in which he was announced
(32:35):
by the DJ and the crowd.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Went wild with enthusiasm that he was there, did a
little dancing and talking about how come Tuesday night, we'll
take this city back.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
No more paying for buses, no more hunger, no more
whatever he's promising.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
I say, no vote until you're thirty two. I was
gonna go with thirty, but let's be safe. He just
turned thirty four. I don't I don't know.
Speaker 6 (33:03):
The young thing doesn't bother me near as much as
the you know, socialism.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
No, I'm talking about voters, not candidates. Oh he's thirty four,
he's old enough, but you can't vote until you're thirty two. Yeah.
I know.
Speaker 6 (33:17):
It drives my kids crazy that I call a thirty
year old a kid. But Katie, you're you're lucky, You're
you're close to being a kid.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Uh. I don't feel like it. Amen to that, sister.
You know what I can't believe we didn't get to today, Jack,
given your enthusiasm for the story, was the mom in
Mississippi gunned down one of those diseased research monkeys. Yeah,
came into her backyard threaten her kids for Bluey Bluey.
(33:46):
I would hate to shoot a monkey, even if it's
got to wait thirty Harry on that disease dripping monkey. Well,
you need to man up. Admit me. Quorters to this
history who plague like your humble.
Speaker 7 (33:59):
Patience, Pray gently to hear, kindly to judge the final
thoughts of Armstrong and Diddy.

final thought from everybody on the crew to wrap things
up for the day.

There he is pressing the buttons are technical director Michael
Angelow Michael final thought. Yeah, the thing I learned today
is early in the show. It was about Friday the thirteenth.
It's a great way to teach teens about the dangers
of pre marital set That's right.

Speaker 8 (34:35):
As a final thought, Katie, I know several twenty somethings
that live in New York City and they're all for
mom Donnie and they all have zero idea about politics
or what.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
He's gonna do. That's amazing. Yeah, you need a poll test.
Has that been tried? Jack? A final thought for us.
Speaker 6 (34:53):
Yeah, if you're dig politics, tomorrow's gonna be a tough
day to take and if you lean right, it's gonna
be it's gonna be rough.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Profit Monster in Virginia gets selected too, with fantasizing about
the deaths of the children as opponent. It's gonna be
a rough day. My final thought is between football and
the World Series. Oh, I've got to stop watching sports.
I know what you mean, Jack, I was the next night.
I was like, oh, there's no World Series game. That's right,
but it's it's just too much, too much to everything.
