Speaker 1 (00:02):
In these bleak days, humanity is at a breaking point.
Economies are tanking, the woke mob is canceling everything, and
the little guy who's just trying to run a small
business is getting screwed from both ends. But not all
is lost. Amidst the chaos, two men offer up their
(00:26):
voices in the darkness, dropping two thousand pounds laser guided
truth bombs on today's lunacy, introducing the Sirens of Sanity,
David Pridham and L Bradley Sheaf.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
There it is Brad Peter seta frontman for Chicago in
the eighties, a lot of hits after all. His cher
who I Believe I'm not mistaken, back in nineteen eighty nine,
sang the song if I Could Turn Back Time? And
this weekend, as part of the Saturday Night Live fiftieth
anniversary thing, which I assume you tuned into, she sang
(01:15):
it again, and if you remember, she got on the
warship with a thong and she recreated that song on
the fiftieth of Saturday level, which I guess begs the
question why if you Could Turn Back Time is not
the song as opposed to after all, but it's probably
primarily because Peter Satara is literally a rock god of
the eighties, pop god of the eighties. Hold on, let
me over my beer.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, that was kind of a week sounding puff.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It's because it's a bubbly, sparkling water. But anyway, so
of course this is David Pritiman brad Shechef. We are
back on the Priniman Chef We Mean Business program. Remember
you can hear us here each week on the iHeartRadio
podcast radio network. And you can also go wherever you
(02:02):
get your podcasts and look up the PRINTAM and Chief
Comedy Hour or IP frequently and you'll find us. We'll
be there. You can subscribe, rate, review, recommend, reflect, and
then repeat. And also you can learn more about us
on our website, IP frequently, dot com and anywhere you
get social media anywhere, including behind the communist wall of
(02:25):
that you find in China by putting in typing the
letters at IP underscore frequently, and boy will you get
a surprise when you see what pops up? No pun intended.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Well that was a good entrance.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Let's just get right to it. Then, NASA, what do
you think about this asteroid that's going to hit Earth
in twenty thirty two? If you have followed that.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Well, our very talented producer sent me the article, and
I believe you know, I just love the media.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
And if you haven't figured this out yet, pay attention.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
This help you.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
The headline is not the story, okay. The headline.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Does serves two purposes in this media day and age. One,
it's designed to get you to click on the article,
because that is now how the media gets paid. It
used to be that you had to buy a newspaper
or magazine or whatever in order for the media to
get paid, and so they wanted to produce a product
that was worth you subscribing to and giving them your
(03:31):
money in advance with the understanding that they would provide
you with valuable journalistic insight. That is not the case anymore, right,
They only get paid if you click on the story.
So the headline is first and foremost designed to get
you to click to The media has known forever. In fact,
it's you know eight o'clock day one lesson one in
(03:53):
journalism school that you put the bottom line up front, right,
You write the story such that the main point is
up front, because no one reads through an entire newspaper
article once they feel like they've heard the important part
they stop. So the journalists have always known that, and
that used to be a guide for them and how
(04:13):
to craft their story. But what it's a guide for
now is how to get you to believe the narrative
they want you to believe. So the second thing the
headline does is sets the stage for the narrative. Then
they put their version of that.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Narrative and paragraph.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
One, and then, in order to be able to still
take the position that they have some journalistic integrity, at
the very bottom of the article, they'll put anything that
runs contrary to their point, just so that they can
say they did right, because they know you're just going
to read the headline that's.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Going to set the stage for the narrative.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
You're going to read paragraph one that's going to cement
the narrative in your mind, and you're not going to
go any further and find out the real story and
the countervailing facts.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
You're not going to do that. You're a human being,
and they know that.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
And so this article goal is perfect, right because the
article says, you know that this asteroid is.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
You know, hurtling towards Earth, going to kill us all, well.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Not all of us, and and well in the and
the odds of it hitting the Earth have doubled in
the last month. Well, when you read the article, you
realize they've doubled from like point seven percent to one
and a half percent.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Okay, so but it has it had gone up to
three point two percent.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Yeah, and so here's the here's the truth. There's next
to no chance of this asteroid hitting the Earth.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
I mean, if someone told you, hey, you have a.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Three point two percent chance of of you know, having
a flat tire this morning, are you not going to
get in your car? There's probably always a three point
two percent chance if you're getting a flat tire, if
not higher, or of an asteroid striking the Earth if
not higher.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Listen, this is three point one percent. Were those were
the odds on Tuesday. Now two days later it's down
to one point five But this is a three hundred
foot wide potentially they don't know how big it is asteroid.
That's called it like a city killer because it's gonna
set off an explosion five hundred times more impactful than
(06:15):
the one that Hitrocha, and and so it could put
it could put a lot of people out of it
just just out right knock a lot of people out
on December twenty second, right, twenty thirty two. That's what
it's gonna hit. They know that, they don't know that
it's gonna hit, but they know that's the data. It'll be,
it'll be the impact will take place, if there's an
(06:38):
impact at all.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yeah, well, buddy, you know.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
I again I find it super Now, maybe there are people,
there are still people who wear masks in their cars
when they're by themselves, and so maybe for those folks.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
This matters.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
I find it hard getting myself worked up over a
three point one percent chance of anything.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
And I just I find it again, everyone should go to.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
School on this on the way journalism quote unquote now
works right air quotes.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
So, NASA has no idea how big this asteroid actually is.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
It's so far away at this point they can't even
tell how big it is. And yet it is a somehow,
it's a news story that there's a one and a
half percent chance that an asteroid of indeterminate size might
strike the Earth. And so you should be asking yourself,
(07:39):
you honestly should be asking yourself, why is this in
the news. I mean, it's even if it happens, it's
not going to happen for seven years, and during that
intervening seven years will get much more information on this,
and you know, be able to prepare for it as
need be, or just completely ignore it as there is
a ninety eight point five percent chance will be the
(07:59):
right thing to do. Why is this in my newspaper today?
You should be asking yourself that? And the answer is
not because it's important, not even because it's interesting, not
even because it's uncommon.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
What would be interesting is to hear from.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
NASA how many asteroids are there out there that I
have a one point five percent chance of hitting the Earth?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
I guarantee it's more than one. And so you should
be single.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Why is this?
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Any answer is because a headline like that will make
you click and.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I clicked, clicked, and then I shared it with you share.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Me and I clicked, And so the institution which owns
that url gets paid.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
You just paid them, okay, with your time.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
Now they got money, but what you paid them with
was with your time and attention. Time and attention that
you'll never be able to get back, never get back,
it's gone, and that somebody could have used, or you
could have used for something else, potentially something else, much
more valuable.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
So you know, if you get nothing.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Else out of this very fine program, understand the segment,
this segment of this very fine program, that that's what
the media is trying to now do.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
And it's true in politics too.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
So when you read the headline that Trump, you know,
was found wearing a Nazi hat goose stepping around the
Oval office, you know whatever, understand that that's not true,
but it will get you to click, and they get paid.
That's all they care about. And if you get down
to the last paragraph, it will read this report is
(09:37):
all based on the supposed observation of a church mouse
high on cocaine that told us he was in the
Oval office and this is what he saw, period. But
you won't get to that until the very last paragraph
of a twenty paragraph article.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
So just understand that's the way it works.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Well, you know what's interesting is that given all that,
I suppose we should move on. But I do want
to just say this. What was the what was the
Bruce Willis film where he blew up the asteroid?
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Oh that was a great movie, Armageddon, Armageddon. That was
his line in that movie when he sends uh.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
This ain't no game flash.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
No, that was the last boy Scout. Also a great
moonrific hof. Bruce Willis sends, Who's.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
He's your guy, Budd, He's a boss an Affleck back
up into the spacecraft. They're going to get out of there,
and he's now marooned on the asteroids. Got to take
care of business.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
And he just looks around on this asteroid just goes, well,
this was.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
A bad fucking idea. That that is one of the
greatest lines in all of movie dumb and that that
is actually a very good movie.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
I enjoyed it.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
We saved the world. But then now they're talking. If
you look at this article, NASA is contemplating whether or
not they fire nuclear weapons at this thing. They just
have to get to it. That's the only problem. Bra
they have to get to the well.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
They have to be able to see how big it is,
you know.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
First and foremost, which they'll get there. I think they're
going to send a team up there and do it.
Speaking of Ben Afflack, did you see the Super Bowl commercial,
the Duncan Donuts thing that he old?
Speaker 4 (11:09):
My word, that may have been the dumbest commercial that's
ever been produced by anyone at any time, I.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
May be coming around on Belichick because that thing. I mean,
I don't know. I still think he's the greatest coach
of all time. But he's now being led around by
that girlfriend who's like twenty years old, and.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
She's more than fifty years younger than he is, rather
than fifty years younger than more than fifty years younger,
and she is negotiating these freaking contracts for him to
humiliate himself.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I mean, he humiliated himself. He looked like a fool
in that. It's not like Brady. Brady was in the
one last year. He was kind of funny, and you know,
he's a TV guy. At Belichick, it looked like I'm
more stiff as a board, stiff as a board, and
he's being led around by this woman. And you know
what m showed me, My wife showed me, is that
he somebody has pictures of him on the seashore where
(12:00):
she's like dressed as a mermaid and he's dressed as
the Gordon fisherman, the Grotton fisherman, the Gorton fisherman along
John Silver and he's like he's got this fisherman outfit
on and he's got like a rodden rail and a
hook in her mouth, and she's like laying on the
shore in a mermaid outfit. What was this for? Just
for their I know what it was for. She showed it.
(12:21):
Maybe they did a photo shoot for a mac. I
don't know what it was for. But they did this.
They did this. This guy is supposed to be the
greatest coach of all time, and you know, you can't.
You cannot picture Vince Lombardi screwing around with this stuff
or parcels right, parcels would So I don't get it.
And I'm happy that we now have Mike Vrabel as
a coach and we're going to make the playoffs this year.
(12:42):
I'm happy with that. And uh, we'll just leave it
at that. But I just did think i'd say that
Dugan Donut's commercial was an embarrassment. He shouldn't have done it,
and he should get rid of the girlfriend and coach
the coach football. If you want to coach, go coach football. Whatever.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Well, he is going to coach football.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
I think he's going to coach in North Carolina and
I but I think we've discussed that.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
I know we've discussed this. Just the two of us.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
I don't know whether or not we've done it in
the actual podcast environment.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
And look, let's just be real. Everybody's an adult here.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Everyone knows why he's dating her, right, and but when
they're not doing that, and he's seventy some odd years old,
so it's not happening often, what do they talk about.
I'm not fifty years older than any of my four daughters.
(13:36):
I'm not fifty years older than any of the people
that work for us, and yet they are young enough
that sometimes we're just looking at each other going, wow,
you know, there's not really much to talk about here, right,
because we're from different generations and you know, different interesting.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
It just it can't, it just cannot.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
So. But she's negotiating these contract for him. She according
to Ben Affleck, now she's a freaking undergrad kid. She
negotiated the contract. I mean, I just you know, it's
just absolutely ridiculous and it's tarnishing his legacy.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
But buddy, God grant honestly, let this be our prayer,
my friend, add this to your morning prayer list. That
we age gracefully. Okay, but if we are blessed to
get into our seventies, no guarantee of that, but if
we are that, we will just be genial old guys
(14:34):
with a sense of humor, taking our situation in stride
and not try to pretend like they're thirty. I mean,
just God grant that we age gracefully. I do not
want that to be my legacy.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Yeah, no, I don't disagree, but you know, at some
point it all get figured out. But I just think
he's tarnishing his legacy and he's embarrassing. Hey. Another uh,
remember we talked about the five hundred pound rapper dank
de Moss.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Oh, that was the gal they couldn't fit in the
lift or whatever.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Couldn't fit in the lift and the lift went away.
So there there has been a study done where this
is and this is just an update. This is by
way of an update for the people that Okay, I
like us about this. But she she proved once and
for all that she could fit into a small suv.
That's part of her. This is this is evidence, right, exculpatory,
(15:32):
this is evidence. But this week she uh, I guess
she had a mixed bag of a week because she
went on some podcast and she broke the couch. So
they had to bring in a bigger couch for her
to sit on, but then she fit into it an suv.
So she's thinking that that is going to be dispositive
(15:52):
evidence in the case against Lyft and and probably in
her view, result in a directed verdict.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Again, this is one of those things.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
But right at the end of the day, you know,
it's a money grab, it's a it's a you know, stunt.
Everybody gets it. At the end of the day, she's
still going to be Dank DeMoss. Yeah, no matter what happens,
that's who she's gonna be. And she has to live
with that. And I don't think she's very happy with that.
(16:26):
But uh, you know, I guess that's neither it's neither
here nor there. I'm glad she was able to squeeze
herself in there. And I hope she's happy.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, I mean yeah, you know, I'm not gonna go there.
I'm not gonna go there. Let's go back to let's
go to other things. Hey, so Trump, you see Trump
this week he's moving to end the Ukrainian war, right
he he uh, he came out and he they had
meetings in uh Saudi Arabia, I believe, which is nice
and then there's gonna be more meetings and probably a
(16:56):
summit with Putin. And you know what was interesting. I
was watching Morning Joe this morning, because every once in
a while i'll work out and I'll watch Morning Joe,
and you know, Trump said that one of his concerns
about Ukraine is the fact that they haven't had elections
in a number of years, and they've declared martial law,
and you know, the president has low approval and all
(17:18):
this stuff, and which is categorically true, right, It's categorically true.
And and so apparently he said all this, and then
Morning Joe gets on there you're just talking about how
all this stuff is false and this and that, and
the part about they do a fact check, and they
(17:39):
said the part about him saying that the president called
off refuses to hold elections is untrue and in fact,
elections have been suspended due to the martial law being
called for four years ago. And so I don't get
how that's a fact check.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
Do you mean it's not right.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
It's spinning the narrative the way that you hope that
your audience, which you obviously considered it, just be stupid.
So I mean understand that if you're a regular Morning
Joe watcher and you're just lapping it all up. But
they think you're an idiot because they just got on
there and said, it's not true that he's refusing to
(18:20):
have elections. It's true that he installed martial law and
postponed all the elections, but he's not refusing to have them.
If you listen to that and you go, oh, yeah,
take that, Donald Trump, You're an idiot, okay, and you should.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
You know, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
You're entitled. Why can't they have elections though.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
They could, of course have election We had elections.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
All during the Civil War. We had elections during the
Civil War, sure did World War two, weds and.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
It's it's I mean, they're not having elections because the
guy doesn't want to have an election.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
I mean, that's simple as that.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
So I just I mean, I mean, I don't get
the vibe. Actually, it's so stupid and we can't even
And I'm like watching this thing and it's amazing, right,
and I haven't watched it in weeks, but I'm watching
this thing. It's amazing. Everyone there is is like a
Cold Warrior from nineteen seventy eight. Right, They'll they're all
(19:22):
talking about how we have to and I don't. I
don't under I still don't understand how having talks with
Russia is a bad thing, right, I don't get it.
What's the problem. It doesn't mean you're going to capitulate,
but you in order to resolve things like this, you
have to talk. And like the whole thing about the
(19:42):
escalation we've gone through the past few years without talking
at all to them is crazy. And I do see
the argument. You tell me if I'm nuts. I do
see the argument that in nineteen eighty nine or whenever
it was that the Soviet Union fell ninety one, or
the US promised Russia as part of this that Ukraine
would never join NATO and that actually some of these
(20:04):
other republics wouldn't join NATO, and then a bunch of
them joined NATO, right, and they expanded NATO and expanded
NATA and expanded NATO, and then Ukraine. One of the
things that prompted this invasion, I think was the push
to have Ukraine join NATO. And I see the argument.
I'm not saying it's right, I'm not saying anything at all,
(20:25):
but I see the argument where that is a provocation, right,
should say they're going to join. That is a provocation.
I don't and no one I don't. I don't see
the argument against that. I mean, that clearly is a provocation,
and that is what I think led to a large
part of this hostility.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Well, it's certainly one.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Of the things that did and and and listen, if
the shoe was on the other foot, what do you
think the United States would do? Right So, if if somehow,
you know, the Soviet Union had pulled itself up out
of its you know, repeated economic disasters, and the War
or Saw Pact just continue to grow, right, It took
over West Germany, it took over France, it took over Spain,
(21:09):
it went up into England, and then they publish, you know,
just they openly say, you know what, the next country
to join the Warsaw Pact is going.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
To be Mexico. What do you think the United States
would do right now? Again, to your point, does it
justify every action taken by Russia? And no, of course not.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
I mean, they have committed war crimes in the Ukraine,
There's no doubt about that. And they are proxies for Iran,
they are proxies for North Korea, they are proxies for China.
I mean, there's all kinds of badness going on there,
but your point is a valid one. And the question
then becomes, well, what do you do about that? How
do you fix this problem? How do you fix the
fact that the West said, hey, don't worry, you know,
(21:56):
the Ukraine will never join NATO. And then NATO continues
to expand and NATO is focused entirely on boxing in
what is now the former Soviet Union. That was the idea,
and so you've continued to expand it. Russia feels boxed
in and then they read, well, wait a minute, your
next door neighbor is going to, you know, now become
(22:19):
part of NATO, and if you do anything to them,
then all of NATO is going to come.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Down on you like a hammer.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
Yeah, I mean, what do you think would happen? And
so how do you fix it? The answer is you
have negotiations, You talk about it, you listen to the
other side. I mean, in my former life, one thing
that would get you fired immediately is if you couldn't
absorb the new facts, right, the new situation on the ground,
whatever that may be, and adjust yourself to respond to that.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
If you were stuck in the old.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
Facts or the intel brief that you got before you
left to go on the operation, and you just continue
to act as though that was true when obviously all
the facts on the ground had changed in front of you.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Then you're an idiot and you're fired.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Right, you have to have the ability to adjust to
the situation that's actually being presented to you. And I think,
in fairness, that's what Trump is trying to do. He's
looking at people and going, well, here's the situation, right,
I mean, here's the facts, all of them. Whether we
like them or not is irrelevant. They are what they are,
and so I'm going to enter into negotiations, try and
(23:26):
figure this thing out. And the only reason that you
would criticize that behavior is if you had just decided
that you were going to be opposed to anything Donald
Trump does.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
And that's it. I mean, that's where we are.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
We have just a huge group of people say, I
don't care what Donald Trump does, I stand in opposition
to it. Right, if he cures cancer, screw that cancer
was a good thing, it helped us out. Donald Trump's
an idiot, I'm an opposition to it. One of the
things I've taken to doing, and I find it just comical.
Is looking at a left leaning publication headline that is
(24:05):
designed to make me believe that Donald Trump is a
tyrant and is the end of democracy, and then I
read the article to see what he actually did, and
the number of times I just shrug and go, well, yeah,
that's absolutely his prerogative is the president of the United States,
and if you don't like it, vote for someone else.
But he's not a tyrant, and he's not a Nazi,
(24:28):
and he's not you know, getting rid of democracy.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
None, that's true.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
No, I'll tell you what. I have never in my
life seen such damn hypocrisy, right, I mean, all across
the board. It's like this Ukraine War thing is you
cannot have a real conversation about this, Like, you know,
it's all about democracy, it's all about okay, But then
what about the fact that they're not having elections about
(24:56):
what about the fact that we're spending all this money
and and being pushed towards a confrontation with Russia, which is,
you know, basically, other than China, the only country that
could result in a conflict that could end the earth
as we know it, And we're just being pushed towards
this conflict. And I get the Putin's a bad guy.
(25:17):
I get that all this stuff, but my god, you
can't even have a conversation about it. It's crazy. And
then you broaden it up everything else Trump's doing, I mean,
the government waste thing. I don't get how the government
waste thing is such a polarizing issue. I mean, they're
finding billions of dollars stashed away in different banks. You know,
(25:42):
the EPA just came out with with like a two
billion dollar fined after finding like eighteen billion that the
Biden administration just hid hid from Trump, from the Trump
administration so that it could be deployed after the swearing in.
I mean, it's just the craziest, craziest thing. And they're
finding people on the social security roles who are older
than this country. Handful of people that are three undred
(26:04):
years old on the social security roles and why is
that a bad thing? And everyone's attacking Elon Musk But
it's you can't have a It is literally team sports.
Now you are rooting for a team. If you are
a Democrat, you are rooting for the Democrats, regardless of
what they do. Right, you're rooting for them. Right. So
(26:26):
if the Republicans nominate RFK to ajhs who was espousing
the same stuff it was espousing twenty years ago when
he was a far left Democrat, you vote against him.
He Telsey Gabbert, who was the head of the Democratic
Campaign Committee five six years ago, vote against her because
she has been nominated by Republican presidents. It's the craziest,
(26:50):
craziest thing, and it is. It's really too bad because
there's no more there's no thoughtful dialogue about any of
this stuff. I mean, you know, Trump signs signed an
executive order banning all new government hiring for a period
of time so they can evaluate where we are. Because
we have a bloated mess of a government and a
(27:10):
huge debt, and that is polarizing. We have people suing
to go to court to say that the government, the
President of the United States, doesn't have the right to
fire someone in the executive branch, and courts, by the way,
in some ways cases are agreeing with them. I mean,
it's just it's just the dumbest, dumbest thing that I
(27:32):
have ever ever seen. And you know, hopefully it's all
going to get straightened up. But I think we may
need to impeach a few judges, if you know what
I mean.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
Yeah, well, buddy, And if that's true, right, I mean, there's.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
Here's the real crime in what is happening is that
we've lost our ability to rationally process information.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Right.
Speaker 4 (27:53):
We don't care to get to the truth. We don't
care to analyze anything anymore. We just want to be
part is in and you know, march around and screaming
each other. If it is true that the president of
the United States does not have the right to fire
employees of the executive branch of the government, then the
(28:15):
government is out of control. I mean that that's what
that means. It means there's no control. It's like saying
the owner of a business cannot fire his employees.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
That in fact, the employees get.
Speaker 4 (28:27):
To come to work whenever they want, in whatever fashion
they want, and do whatever they want because they are
subject to no authority. And if we were to run
our households that way, if we were to run our
businesses that way, they would fail immediately. And the government
has failed. And this is why because there's there has
(28:50):
been no adult supervision over the executive branch.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
And that's true.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
I worked for it, So I don't want to hear
anybody saying, well, how do you know, I know because
I worked for it.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
I was in integral part of the executive branch of
the government, invest being an.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Employee of one.
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Section of that branch and investigating other sections of that branch.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Okay, So I get it.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
I can tell you it's bloated. I can tell you
it's out of control. And so now there is a
president and if you hate him, you hate him.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
I don't care.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
But at least he's saying no, no, no, no, I am
the president. Here is what the Constitution says about my authority.
I'm going to impose my authority because I believe it's
best for the American people. Whether you agree with him,
it doesn't matter. That's what he's doing. And if he
cannot do that, then the government's out of control and
you don't want that.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Now.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
I am a little bit bummed out that, you know,
he has to rule by caveat. I don't think that's
that's a very good precedent then, you know. Then, so
for any future presidents, if they can come and do
the same thing, they can just come in and start signing
executive orders and radically change face government.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
And there may be a.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
President who appears at some point in the future that
I disagree with, and I don't like the fact that
he or she's doing that.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Right, So I don't love that.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Precedent, but understand that the reason that Donald Trump is
doing that is because our government is broken. I mean,
the way it's supposed to work is that the president
goes to Congress and they negotiate, and they have debate,
and they have reasoned, rational discourse about the best thing
for the country, and then they work it out. Legislation
(30:30):
has passed, it is signed by the president, becomes law.
That's not supposed to work. But you cannot blame Donald Trump. Again,
whether you like him or hate him, you can't blame
him for what he's doing because there's no way Congress
is doing that. There's no way. They're not capable of
doing it anymore. We've elected just partisan douchebags on both
sides of the aisle, so that the way the government
(30:51):
is designed to work won't work. And so the only
way that Trump can actually implement his plan to have
an Office of the Presidency that actually does its job
under the Constitution is to do it by caveat and
that's just too freaking bad, and.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
You know what it is. But some of this, a
lot of this is at the prerogative of the president.
I mean he announced that we've hired like crazy, Like
the government is hired like crazy, and people are still
working from home, like the Treasury Department. I don't love
you know this. The Treasury Department was just reopened this
week when the new Treasury Secretary took office. He went
(31:33):
in and he opened the door and he told people
to get back to work because people have been working
from freaking home since COVID, even though we're way past
the coch I mean, it's just crazy. So you've got
all these buyouts and then and then they went in
and they and they they issued termination orders to all
these people across the government who were hired on probationary status.
(31:57):
They are on probationary status, they're recently hired. Trump literally
fired them all across government, fired all those people because
they were in their probationary period. They didn't you know,
we can't afford it. So and then you literally the
uh across the government. The reaction is absolutely people are hysterical.
(32:21):
They're beside themselves. So they had like a handful of
these people at the JFK Library in Massachusetts, which is,
by the way, terrific, it's really nice. And they got
this off this order like middle of the week, Tuesday afternoon,
so they shut down the JFK Library because they fired
these five probationary employees. Okay, and this is good. This
is a library, by the way, with one hundred million
(32:42):
dollar plus endowment, private endowment addition to the public funds
one hundred million dollars. Okay, they shut down the library
right saying it'll be shut till further notice. They're they're
committed to fight, to fighting these cuts, these vicious cuts
and all this stuff. Again, five probationary employees. And then
the son, the grandson of JKJFK, who's that lunatic, goes
(33:06):
and does this big thing about it and online. And
then the next day, of course, the library opened is
normal on Wednesday. So it was closed in the middle
of the afternoon Tuesday, reopen Wednesday. The employees are still fired.
But across government, it's just this hysterical reaction to budget cutting,
as if people are entitled to these jobs. And the
(33:29):
government is required to keep growing and growing and growing,
and it's just it's it's disgustingly the entitlement. And you know,
sixty minutes parade out these people who are more of
these probationary workers who were like these twenty year olds,
these twenty somethings who thought they had a job for life,
and they're you know, attacking the Trump administration. They had
(33:52):
they had these just nonsensical, stupid jobs. I don't know,
some speech writer for some foreign foundation that gives money,
probably trying to destabilize foreign governments. And and then the
other guy, I don't even know what the other guy.
But these these these nitwits are are devastated because they
don't have a job for life now and and and
(34:14):
the pension and all this craziness. And and you know
what I say, I say, good for him. Good.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
Absolutely, I couldn't agree more. Yeah, I mean, we don't
we're paying for this. So some snot nosed kid who's
going to write speeches for some organization you've never heard
of on your dime gets told no, sorry, we don't
need it. You know what we're we're trillions of dollars
in debt somebody is eventually going to have to pay
(34:39):
for this. I'm going to be a responsible adult and
only keep the employees that the business I'm running, which
in this case happens to be the executive brands the
United States. It's not a jobs program. You're not entitled
to this job. That there should be no civil servant
that is entitled to their job. This isn't a university.
(34:59):
You have tenure. Okay, you work for the people of
the United States, and you're taking their money right out
of their pockets and putting it into your pocket. When
you're a civil servant of any stripe, and if you're
not producing for the people of the United States, if
you're not improving the life of the people of the
(35:20):
United States by the job that you do for the
government of the United States, then get out. It's as
simple as that. It doesn't matter whether we like you
don't like you. It's nothing personal. Right, you're not contributing,
so you're out. That's the way it works. And the
quicker that people can't get used to that. Like our grandparents,
Buddy had no doubt about that. They understood that if
(35:44):
they were employed, they had to produce, and if they didn't.
They were out, and they didn't see that as being
some criminal behavior. They just saw it as being the truth.
And frankly, they were better people than the people that
we have now, in no small part because they understood that.
Now we've just got a bunch of twenty year olds
(36:06):
who think the government should pay them for life to
include a pension because they exist, because they're just walking
around and that is insane.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
And the Kennedy kids a nitwit too. He should shut
that up and go get it. He should get it.
There's another thing. Should go get a job. Get a job.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Yeah, get a job and get a job. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
The mother doesn't have a job. The mother's been sucking
on the government teat all her life. Chelsea Clinton's been sucking.
You should see the money her foundation's getting from the government.
Luckily that's all been shut off now. But I mean,
it's unbelievable. None of these people have ever had a job.
Go get a job, Go start a company, go ahead, yeah,
do something. Leave us alone. We don't want it anymore.
(36:46):
Finally brought. I know we're running out of time, but
you know what thing that I think you and I
can agree on is that you know there has been
some change that maybe isn't necessary that the Trump administration
has been overseeing, and you almost have to go north
of the border to Kannada to see where you know,
(37:06):
what happens when that change doesn't take effect and you
just continue on the path you're on. I give you
Nathaniel Morin. Apparently this is a advisor to the government
in Kannada who won the Bouge Bouge. Bougie is a bougie.
(37:26):
I have no idea the Bouche Bouche five k on
February fifth, February fourth, twenty twenty four, Booch Booche. This
is a twenty something year old advisor who won the
female division. Came in first place with a time of
twenty five thirty two in the five k, airing the
(37:47):
title of the fastest female across all age categories, edging
out the runner up, who was a girl in the
ten to twelve age category who barely lost to twenty
six eight who would have won if the man Nathaniel
Moore and had not had not run. But Canadian law
(38:09):
brad unlike US law, has been changed by Donald Trump.
Canadian law protects the inclusion of men in little girls races.
So what do you think you think Canada has it
right here?
Speaker 3 (38:23):
How often look.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
At the silences?
Speaker 3 (38:25):
Be not fair to say. I mean, I'm sure Canada
does many things. Well, I really don't know, but.
Speaker 4 (38:30):
I mean, this is just the dumbest I don't even
know why this is still a topic of conversation. I
honestly don't look at this guy. Let me make it clear,
I don't care if you're a dude and you want
to dress up like a girl and give yourself a
girl's name and give yourself female pronouns and live your
life that way, I honest to goodness, don't care, right,
(38:50):
I just that is your choice. You may do it,
knock yourself out. But when you look the world in
the eye and say it is appropriate and fair, that
because I have made that choice to just change facts
(39:10):
by my own words, right that I'm just and I'm
going to take some medication that is going to reduce
the amount of testosterone my system, but is not going
to change the fact that I'm an adult male. And
just because I tell you to call me she and her,
I'm not going to compete in women's sports.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Is children against children?
Speaker 4 (39:34):
Effing ridiculous and you should be ashamed of yourself. Now again,
the choice to live your life that way is fine,
and nobody to my knowledge, to include Donald Trump, has
said you can't do that. You can't choose to live
your life that way. They've just said, you can't compete
against girls and sports.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
That's it.
Speaker 4 (39:52):
You can do all the rest of it. You can
stomp your foot and make people call you she and her.
You can grow your hair out, stuff you're broad. You
can do all of that if you want. What you
cannot do is pretend like it is fair to compete
against women in sports.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
That's it. That's the one thing you can't do.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
And if anyone takes the position that that's wrong, then
they're they're just an idiot who's bought into a narrative
that has no factual foundation. I am one hundred percent.
If you are a transactivist or a trans ally or
whatever they call it, and you want to support folks
in their trans lifestyle, go ahead that you are not
(40:32):
going to bother me in the least. I don't spend
a minute thinking about it. But the moment you enter
yourself in a five K and then tout the fact
that you're the fastest girl.
Speaker 3 (40:42):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
That's words up too far. I mean, it is crazy.
I don't want to again. We don't we don't. We
don't advocate violence here on the IP frequently of Me
Business podcast. I'm going to say that for the record,
but you know, maybe we should. Maybe we should. It's time.
Well there it is, Brad. I mean, we've covered a
lot here and you know what we didn't get to.
(41:03):
We didn't get to the we didn't get to the
Apparently the Pope is taking a turn for the worse.
He may have caught your your virus and there is
a short list of people to replace him. And I
wanted to go through that with you and get your
get your thoughts, but that'll have to be next week.
Remember you were the one that predicted Cardinal Ratzinger, who
(41:24):
had a questionable past with his dalliances with Nazism, would
become pope, and he he did. He was Pope.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
PopEd it right up.
Speaker 2 (41:33):
Mm hmm. But anyway, I'll I'll that'll be like a
little tease for next week, all.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
Right, buddy, Well you know what we did again. We
survived it. My voice is shot, but that's okay. It
was worth it.
Speaker 4 (41:47):
To get this information out for the listeners of this
very fun program, and so you know when they luck
at all, when when we do this again next week,
my normal voice will be back.
Speaker 3 (41:57):
Perhaps that will be disappointing for some.
Speaker 4 (41:59):
Who enjoy this raspy, gravelly, you know, sort of sexy
voice I have. But regardless, we'll be back and we'll
do it all again, dropping those two thousand pound truth
bombs right here on IP frequently.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
This has been IP frequently, once again, clearing a forest
of lies with the machete of truth.
Speaker 3 (42:22):
You're welcome.
In these bleak days, humanity is at a breaking point.
Economies are tanking, the woke mob is canceling everything, and
the little guy who's just trying to run a small
business is getting screwed from both ends. But not all
is lost. Amidst the chaos, two men offer up their
(00:26):
voices in the darkness, dropping two thousand pounds laser guided
truth bombs on today's lunacy, introducing the Sirens of Sanity,
David Pridham and L Bradley Sheaf.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
There it is Brad Peter seta frontman for Chicago in
the eighties, a lot of hits after all. His cher
who I Believe I'm not mistaken, back in nineteen eighty nine,
sang the song if I Could Turn Back Time? And
this weekend, as part of the Saturday Night Live fiftieth
anniversary thing, which I assume you tuned into, she sang
(01:15):
it again, and if you remember, she got on the
warship with a thong and she recreated that song on
the fiftieth of Saturday level, which I guess begs the
question why if you Could Turn Back Time is not
the song as opposed to after all, but it's probably
primarily because Peter Satara is literally a rock god of
the eighties, pop god of the eighties. Hold on, let
me over my beer.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, that was kind of a week sounding puff.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It's because it's a bubbly, sparkling water. But anyway, so
of course this is David Pritiman brad Shechef. We are
back on the Priniman Chef We Mean Business program. Remember
you can hear us here each week on the iHeartRadio
podcast radio network. And you can also go wherever you
(02:02):
get your podcasts and look up the PRINTAM and Chief
Comedy Hour or IP frequently and you'll find us. We'll
be there. You can subscribe, rate, review, recommend, reflect, and
then repeat. And also you can learn more about us
on our website, IP frequently, dot com and anywhere you
get social media anywhere, including behind the communist wall of
(02:25):
that you find in China by putting in typing the
letters at IP underscore frequently, and boy will you get
a surprise when you see what pops up? No pun intended.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Well that was a good entrance.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Let's just get right to it. Then, NASA, what do
you think about this asteroid that's going to hit Earth
in twenty thirty two? If you have followed that.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Well, our very talented producer sent me the article, and
I believe you know, I just love the media.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
And if you haven't figured this out yet, pay attention.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
This help you.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
The headline is not the story, okay. The headline.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Does serves two purposes in this media day and age. One,
it's designed to get you to click on the article,
because that is now how the media gets paid. It
used to be that you had to buy a newspaper
or magazine or whatever in order for the media to
get paid, and so they wanted to produce a product
that was worth you subscribing to and giving them your
(03:31):
money in advance with the understanding that they would provide
you with valuable journalistic insight. That is not the case anymore, right,
They only get paid if you click on the story.
So the headline is first and foremost designed to get
you to click to The media has known forever. In fact,
it's you know eight o'clock day one lesson one in
(03:53):
journalism school that you put the bottom line up front, right,
You write the story such that the main point is
up front, because no one reads through an entire newspaper
article once they feel like they've heard the important part
they stop. So the journalists have always known that, and
that used to be a guide for them and how
(04:13):
to craft their story. But what it's a guide for
now is how to get you to believe the narrative
they want you to believe. So the second thing the
headline does is sets the stage for the narrative. Then
they put their version of that.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Narrative and paragraph.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
One, and then, in order to be able to still
take the position that they have some journalistic integrity, at
the very bottom of the article, they'll put anything that
runs contrary to their point, just so that they can
say they did right, because they know you're just going
to read the headline that's.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Going to set the stage for the narrative.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
You're going to read paragraph one that's going to cement
the narrative in your mind, and you're not going to
go any further and find out the real story and
the countervailing facts.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
You're not going to do that. You're a human being,
and they know that.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
And so this article goal is perfect, right because the
article says, you know that this asteroid is.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
You know, hurtling towards Earth, going to kill us all, well.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Not all of us, and and well in the and
the odds of it hitting the Earth have doubled in
the last month. Well, when you read the article, you
realize they've doubled from like point seven percent to one
and a half percent.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Okay, so but it has it had gone up to
three point two percent.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Yeah, and so here's the here's the truth. There's next
to no chance of this asteroid hitting the Earth.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
I mean, if someone told you, hey, you have a.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Three point two percent chance of of you know, having
a flat tire this morning, are you not going to
get in your car? There's probably always a three point
two percent chance if you're getting a flat tire, if
not higher, or of an asteroid striking the Earth if
not higher.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Listen, this is three point one percent. Were those were
the odds on Tuesday. Now two days later it's down
to one point five But this is a three hundred
foot wide potentially they don't know how big it is asteroid.
That's called it like a city killer because it's gonna
set off an explosion five hundred times more impactful than
(06:15):
the one that Hitrocha, and and so it could put
it could put a lot of people out of it
just just out right knock a lot of people out
on December twenty second, right, twenty thirty two. That's what
it's gonna hit. They know that, they don't know that
it's gonna hit, but they know that's the data. It'll be,
it'll be the impact will take place, if there's an
(06:38):
impact at all.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yeah, well, buddy, you know.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
I again I find it super Now, maybe there are people,
there are still people who wear masks in their cars
when they're by themselves, and so maybe for those folks.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
This matters.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
I find it hard getting myself worked up over a
three point one percent chance of anything.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
And I just I find it again, everyone should go to.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
School on this on the way journalism quote unquote now
works right air quotes.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
So, NASA has no idea how big this asteroid actually is.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
It's so far away at this point they can't even
tell how big it is. And yet it is a somehow,
it's a news story that there's a one and a
half percent chance that an asteroid of indeterminate size might
strike the Earth. And so you should be asking yourself,
(07:39):
you honestly should be asking yourself, why is this in
the news. I mean, it's even if it happens, it's
not going to happen for seven years, and during that
intervening seven years will get much more information on this,
and you know, be able to prepare for it as
need be, or just completely ignore it as there is
a ninety eight point five percent chance will be the
(07:59):
right thing to do. Why is this in my newspaper today?
You should be asking yourself that? And the answer is
not because it's important, not even because it's interesting, not
even because it's uncommon.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
What would be interesting is to hear from.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
NASA how many asteroids are there out there that I
have a one point five percent chance of hitting the Earth?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
I guarantee it's more than one. And so you should
be single.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Why is this?
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Any answer is because a headline like that will make
you click and.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I clicked, clicked, and then I shared it with you share.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Me and I clicked, And so the institution which owns
that url gets paid.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
You just paid them, okay, with your time.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
Now they got money, but what you paid them with
was with your time and attention. Time and attention that
you'll never be able to get back, never get back,
it's gone, and that somebody could have used, or you
could have used for something else, potentially something else, much
more valuable.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
So you know, if you get nothing.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Else out of this very fine program, understand the segment,
this segment of this very fine program, that that's what
the media is trying to now do.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
And it's true in politics too.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
So when you read the headline that Trump, you know,
was found wearing a Nazi hat goose stepping around the
Oval office, you know whatever, understand that that's not true,
but it will get you to click, and they get paid.
That's all they care about. And if you get down
to the last paragraph, it will read this report is
(09:37):
all based on the supposed observation of a church mouse
high on cocaine that told us he was in the
Oval office and this is what he saw, period. But
you won't get to that until the very last paragraph
of a twenty paragraph article.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
So just understand that's the way it works.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Well, you know what's interesting is that given all that,
I suppose we should move on. But I do want
to just say this. What was the what was the
Bruce Willis film where he blew up the asteroid?
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Oh that was a great movie, Armageddon, Armageddon. That was
his line in that movie when he sends uh.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
This ain't no game flash.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
No, that was the last boy Scout. Also a great
moonrific hof. Bruce Willis sends, Who's.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
He's your guy, Budd, He's a boss an Affleck back
up into the spacecraft. They're going to get out of there,
and he's now marooned on the asteroids. Got to take
care of business.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
And he just looks around on this asteroid just goes, well,
this was.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
A bad fucking idea. That that is one of the
greatest lines in all of movie dumb and that that
is actually a very good movie.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
I enjoyed it.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
We saved the world. But then now they're talking. If
you look at this article, NASA is contemplating whether or
not they fire nuclear weapons at this thing. They just
have to get to it. That's the only problem. Bra
they have to get to the well.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
They have to be able to see how big it is,
you know.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
First and foremost, which they'll get there. I think they're
going to send a team up there and do it.
Speaking of Ben Afflack, did you see the Super Bowl commercial,
the Duncan Donuts thing that he old?
Speaker 4 (11:09):
My word, that may have been the dumbest commercial that's
ever been produced by anyone at any time, I.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
May be coming around on Belichick because that thing. I mean,
I don't know. I still think he's the greatest coach
of all time. But he's now being led around by
that girlfriend who's like twenty years old, and.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
She's more than fifty years younger than he is, rather
than fifty years younger than more than fifty years younger,
and she is negotiating these freaking contracts for him to
humiliate himself.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I mean, he humiliated himself. He looked like a fool
in that. It's not like Brady. Brady was in the
one last year. He was kind of funny, and you know,
he's a TV guy. At Belichick, it looked like I'm
more stiff as a board, stiff as a board, and
he's being led around by this woman. And you know
what m showed me, My wife showed me, is that
he somebody has pictures of him on the seashore where
(12:00):
she's like dressed as a mermaid and he's dressed as
the Gordon fisherman, the Grotton fisherman, the Gorton fisherman along
John Silver and he's like he's got this fisherman outfit
on and he's got like a rodden rail and a
hook in her mouth, and she's like laying on the
shore in a mermaid outfit. What was this for? Just
for their I know what it was for. She showed it.
(12:21):
Maybe they did a photo shoot for a mac. I
don't know what it was for. But they did this.
They did this. This guy is supposed to be the
greatest coach of all time, and you know, you can't.
You cannot picture Vince Lombardi screwing around with this stuff
or parcels right, parcels would So I don't get it.
And I'm happy that we now have Mike Vrabel as
a coach and we're going to make the playoffs this year.
(12:42):
I'm happy with that. And uh, we'll just leave it
at that. But I just did think i'd say that
Dugan Donut's commercial was an embarrassment. He shouldn't have done it,
and he should get rid of the girlfriend and coach
the coach football. If you want to coach, go coach football. Whatever.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
Well, he is going to coach football.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
I think he's going to coach in North Carolina and
I but I think we've discussed that.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
I know we've discussed this. Just the two of us.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
I don't know whether or not we've done it in
the actual podcast environment.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
And look, let's just be real. Everybody's an adult here.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Everyone knows why he's dating her, right, and but when
they're not doing that, and he's seventy some odd years old,
so it's not happening often, what do they talk about.
I'm not fifty years older than any of my four daughters.
(13:36):
I'm not fifty years older than any of the people
that work for us, and yet they are young enough
that sometimes we're just looking at each other going, wow,
you know, there's not really much to talk about here, right,
because we're from different generations and you know, different interesting.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
It just it can't, it just cannot.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
So. But she's negotiating these contract for him. She according
to Ben Affleck, now she's a freaking undergrad kid. She
negotiated the contract. I mean, I just you know, it's
just absolutely ridiculous and it's tarnishing his legacy.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
But buddy, God grant honestly, let this be our prayer,
my friend, add this to your morning prayer list. That
we age gracefully. Okay, but if we are blessed to
get into our seventies, no guarantee of that, but if
we are that, we will just be genial old guys
(14:34):
with a sense of humor, taking our situation in stride
and not try to pretend like they're thirty. I mean,
just God grant that we age gracefully. I do not
want that to be my legacy.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Yeah, no, I don't disagree, but you know, at some
point it all get figured out. But I just think
he's tarnishing his legacy and he's embarrassing. Hey. Another uh,
remember we talked about the five hundred pound rapper dank
de Moss.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Oh, that was the gal they couldn't fit in the
lift or whatever.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Couldn't fit in the lift and the lift went away.
So there there has been a study done where this
is and this is just an update. This is by
way of an update for the people that Okay, I
like us about this. But she she proved once and
for all that she could fit into a small suv.
That's part of her. This is this is evidence, right, exculpatory,
(15:32):
this is evidence. But this week she uh, I guess
she had a mixed bag of a week because she
went on some podcast and she broke the couch. So
they had to bring in a bigger couch for her
to sit on, but then she fit into it an suv.
So she's thinking that that is going to be dispositive
(15:52):
evidence in the case against Lyft and and probably in
her view, result in a directed verdict.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Again, this is one of those things.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
But right at the end of the day, you know,
it's a money grab, it's a it's a you know, stunt.
Everybody gets it. At the end of the day, she's
still going to be Dank DeMoss. Yeah, no matter what happens,
that's who she's gonna be. And she has to live
with that. And I don't think she's very happy with that.
(16:26):
But uh, you know, I guess that's neither it's neither
here nor there. I'm glad she was able to squeeze
herself in there. And I hope she's happy.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, I mean yeah, you know, I'm not gonna go there.
I'm not gonna go there. Let's go back to let's
go to other things. Hey, so Trump, you see Trump
this week he's moving to end the Ukrainian war, right
he he uh, he came out and he they had
meetings in uh Saudi Arabia, I believe, which is nice
and then there's gonna be more meetings and probably a
(16:56):
summit with Putin. And you know what was interesting. I
was watching Morning Joe this morning, because every once in
a while i'll work out and I'll watch Morning Joe,
and you know, Trump said that one of his concerns
about Ukraine is the fact that they haven't had elections
in a number of years, and they've declared martial law,
and you know, the president has low approval and all
(17:18):
this stuff, and which is categorically true, right, It's categorically true.
And and so apparently he said all this, and then
Morning Joe gets on there you're just talking about how
all this stuff is false and this and that, and
the part about they do a fact check, and they
(17:39):
said the part about him saying that the president called
off refuses to hold elections is untrue and in fact,
elections have been suspended due to the martial law being
called for four years ago. And so I don't get
how that's a fact check.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
Do you mean it's not right.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
It's spinning the narrative the way that you hope that
your audience, which you obviously considered it, just be stupid.
So I mean understand that if you're a regular Morning
Joe watcher and you're just lapping it all up. But
they think you're an idiot because they just got on
there and said, it's not true that he's refusing to
(18:20):
have elections. It's true that he installed martial law and
postponed all the elections, but he's not refusing to have them.
If you listen to that and you go, oh, yeah,
take that, Donald Trump, You're an idiot, okay, and you should.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
You know, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
You're entitled. Why can't they have elections though.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
They could, of course have election We had elections.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
All during the Civil War. We had elections during the
Civil War, sure did World War two, weds and.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
It's it's I mean, they're not having elections because the
guy doesn't want to have an election.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
I mean, that's simple as that.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
So I just I mean, I mean, I don't get
the vibe. Actually, it's so stupid and we can't even
And I'm like watching this thing and it's amazing, right,
and I haven't watched it in weeks, but I'm watching
this thing. It's amazing. Everyone there is is like a
Cold Warrior from nineteen seventy eight. Right, They'll they're all
(19:22):
talking about how we have to and I don't. I
don't under I still don't understand how having talks with
Russia is a bad thing, right, I don't get it.
What's the problem. It doesn't mean you're going to capitulate,
but you in order to resolve things like this, you
have to talk. And like the whole thing about the
(19:42):
escalation we've gone through the past few years without talking
at all to them is crazy. And I do see
the argument. You tell me if I'm nuts. I do
see the argument that in nineteen eighty nine or whenever
it was that the Soviet Union fell ninety one, or
the US promised Russia as part of this that Ukraine
would never join NATO and that actually some of these
(20:04):
other republics wouldn't join NATO, and then a bunch of
them joined NATO, right, and they expanded NATO and expanded
NATA and expanded NATO, and then Ukraine. One of the
things that prompted this invasion, I think was the push
to have Ukraine join NATO. And I see the argument.
I'm not saying it's right, I'm not saying anything at all,
(20:25):
but I see the argument where that is a provocation, right,
should say they're going to join. That is a provocation.
I don't and no one I don't. I don't see
the argument against that. I mean, that clearly is a provocation,
and that is what I think led to a large
part of this hostility.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Well, it's certainly one.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Of the things that did and and and listen, if
the shoe was on the other foot, what do you
think the United States would do? Right So, if if somehow,
you know, the Soviet Union had pulled itself up out
of its you know, repeated economic disasters, and the War
or Saw Pact just continue to grow, right, It took
over West Germany, it took over France, it took over Spain,
(21:09):
it went up into England, and then they publish, you know,
just they openly say, you know what, the next country
to join the Warsaw Pact is going.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
To be Mexico. What do you think the United States
would do right now? Again, to your point, does it
justify every action taken by Russia? And no, of course not.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
I mean, they have committed war crimes in the Ukraine,
There's no doubt about that. And they are proxies for Iran,
they are proxies for North Korea, they are proxies for China.
I mean, there's all kinds of badness going on there,
but your point is a valid one. And the question
then becomes, well, what do you do about that? How
do you fix this problem? How do you fix the
fact that the West said, hey, don't worry, you know,
(21:56):
the Ukraine will never join NATO. And then NATO continues
to expand and NATO is focused entirely on boxing in
what is now the former Soviet Union. That was the idea,
and so you've continued to expand it. Russia feels boxed
in and then they read, well, wait a minute, your
next door neighbor is going to, you know, now become
(22:19):
part of NATO, and if you do anything to them,
then all of NATO is going to come.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Down on you like a hammer.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
Yeah, I mean, what do you think would happen? And
so how do you fix it? The answer is you
have negotiations, You talk about it, you listen to the
other side. I mean, in my former life, one thing
that would get you fired immediately is if you couldn't
absorb the new facts, right, the new situation on the ground,
whatever that may be, and adjust yourself to respond to that.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
If you were stuck in the old.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
Facts or the intel brief that you got before you
left to go on the operation, and you just continue
to act as though that was true when obviously all
the facts on the ground had changed in front of you.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Then you're an idiot and you're fired.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Right, you have to have the ability to adjust to
the situation that's actually being presented to you. And I think,
in fairness, that's what Trump is trying to do. He's
looking at people and going, well, here's the situation, right,
I mean, here's the facts, all of them. Whether we
like them or not is irrelevant. They are what they are,
and so I'm going to enter into negotiations, try and
(23:26):
figure this thing out. And the only reason that you
would criticize that behavior is if you had just decided
that you were going to be opposed to anything Donald
Trump does.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
And that's it. I mean, that's where we are.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
We have just a huge group of people say, I
don't care what Donald Trump does, I stand in opposition
to it. Right, if he cures cancer, screw that cancer
was a good thing, it helped us out. Donald Trump's
an idiot, I'm an opposition to it. One of the
things I've taken to doing, and I find it just comical.
Is looking at a left leaning publication headline that is
(24:05):
designed to make me believe that Donald Trump is a
tyrant and is the end of democracy, and then I
read the article to see what he actually did, and
the number of times I just shrug and go, well, yeah,
that's absolutely his prerogative is the president of the United States,
and if you don't like it, vote for someone else.
But he's not a tyrant, and he's not a Nazi,
(24:28):
and he's not you know, getting rid of democracy.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
None, that's true.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
No, I'll tell you what. I have never in my
life seen such damn hypocrisy, right, I mean, all across
the board. It's like this Ukraine War thing is you
cannot have a real conversation about this, Like, you know,
it's all about democracy, it's all about okay, But then
what about the fact that they're not having elections about
(24:56):
what about the fact that we're spending all this money
and and being pushed towards a confrontation with Russia, which is,
you know, basically, other than China, the only country that
could result in a conflict that could end the earth
as we know it, And we're just being pushed towards
this conflict. And I get the Putin's a bad guy.
(25:17):
I get that all this stuff, but my god, you
can't even have a conversation about it. It's crazy. And
then you broaden it up everything else Trump's doing, I mean,
the government waste thing. I don't get how the government
waste thing is such a polarizing issue. I mean, they're
finding billions of dollars stashed away in different banks. You know,
(25:42):
the EPA just came out with with like a two
billion dollar fined after finding like eighteen billion that the
Biden administration just hid hid from Trump, from the Trump
administration so that it could be deployed after the swearing in.
I mean, it's just the craziest, craziest thing. And they're
finding people on the social security roles who are older
than this country. Handful of people that are three undred
(26:04):
years old on the social security roles and why is
that a bad thing? And everyone's attacking Elon Musk But
it's you can't have a It is literally team sports.
Now you are rooting for a team. If you are
a Democrat, you are rooting for the Democrats, regardless of
what they do. Right, you're rooting for them. Right. So
(26:26):
if the Republicans nominate RFK to ajhs who was espousing
the same stuff it was espousing twenty years ago when
he was a far left Democrat, you vote against him.
He Telsey Gabbert, who was the head of the Democratic
Campaign Committee five six years ago, vote against her because
she has been nominated by Republican presidents. It's the craziest,
(26:50):
craziest thing, and it is. It's really too bad because
there's no more there's no thoughtful dialogue about any of
this stuff. I mean, you know, Trump signs signed an
executive order banning all new government hiring for a period
of time so they can evaluate where we are. Because
we have a bloated mess of a government and a
(27:10):
huge debt, and that is polarizing. We have people suing
to go to court to say that the government, the
President of the United States, doesn't have the right to
fire someone in the executive branch, and courts, by the way,
in some ways cases are agreeing with them. I mean,
it's just it's just the dumbest, dumbest thing that I
(27:32):
have ever ever seen. And you know, hopefully it's all
going to get straightened up. But I think we may
need to impeach a few judges, if you know what
I mean.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
Yeah, well, buddy, And if that's true, right, I mean, there's.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
Here's the real crime in what is happening is that
we've lost our ability to rationally process information.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Right.
Speaker 4 (27:53):
We don't care to get to the truth. We don't
care to analyze anything anymore. We just want to be
part is in and you know, march around and screaming
each other. If it is true that the president of
the United States does not have the right to fire
employees of the executive branch of the government, then the
(28:15):
government is out of control. I mean that that's what
that means. It means there's no control. It's like saying
the owner of a business cannot fire his employees.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
That in fact, the employees get.
Speaker 4 (28:27):
To come to work whenever they want, in whatever fashion
they want, and do whatever they want because they are
subject to no authority. And if we were to run
our households that way, if we were to run our
businesses that way, they would fail immediately. And the government
has failed. And this is why because there's there has
(28:50):
been no adult supervision over the executive branch.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
And that's true.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
I worked for it, So I don't want to hear
anybody saying, well, how do you know, I know because
I worked for it.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
I was in integral part of the executive branch of
the government, invest being an.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Employee of one.
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Section of that branch and investigating other sections of that branch.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Okay, So I get it.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
I can tell you it's bloated. I can tell you
it's out of control. And so now there is a
president and if you hate him, you hate him.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
I don't care.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
But at least he's saying no, no, no, no, I am
the president. Here is what the Constitution says about my authority.
I'm going to impose my authority because I believe it's
best for the American people. Whether you agree with him,
it doesn't matter. That's what he's doing. And if he
cannot do that, then the government's out of control and
you don't want that.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Now.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
I am a little bit bummed out that, you know,
he has to rule by caveat. I don't think that's
that's a very good precedent then, you know. Then, so
for any future presidents, if they can come and do
the same thing, they can just come in and start signing
executive orders and radically change face government.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
And there may be a.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
President who appears at some point in the future that
I disagree with, and I don't like the fact that
he or she's doing that.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Right, So I don't love that.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Precedent, but understand that the reason that Donald Trump is
doing that is because our government is broken. I mean,
the way it's supposed to work is that the president
goes to Congress and they negotiate, and they have debate,
and they have reasoned, rational discourse about the best thing
for the country, and then they work it out. Legislation
(30:30):
has passed, it is signed by the president, becomes law.
That's not supposed to work. But you cannot blame Donald Trump. Again,
whether you like him or hate him, you can't blame
him for what he's doing because there's no way Congress
is doing that. There's no way. They're not capable of
doing it anymore. We've elected just partisan douchebags on both
sides of the aisle, so that the way the government
(30:51):
is designed to work won't work. And so the only
way that Trump can actually implement his plan to have
an Office of the Presidency that actually does its job
under the Constitution is to do it by caveat and
that's just too freaking bad, and.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
You know what it is. But some of this, a
lot of this is at the prerogative of the president.
I mean he announced that we've hired like crazy, Like
the government is hired like crazy, and people are still
working from home, like the Treasury Department. I don't love
you know this. The Treasury Department was just reopened this
week when the new Treasury Secretary took office. He went
(31:33):
in and he opened the door and he told people
to get back to work because people have been working
from freaking home since COVID, even though we're way past
the coch I mean, it's just crazy. So you've got
all these buyouts and then and then they went in
and they and they they issued termination orders to all
these people across the government who were hired on probationary status.
(31:57):
They are on probationary status, they're recently hired. Trump literally
fired them all across government, fired all those people because
they were in their probationary period. They didn't you know,
we can't afford it. So and then you literally the
uh across the government. The reaction is absolutely people are hysterical.
(32:21):
They're beside themselves. So they had like a handful of
these people at the JFK Library in Massachusetts, which is,
by the way, terrific, it's really nice. And they got
this off this order like middle of the week, Tuesday afternoon,
so they shut down the JFK Library because they fired
these five probationary employees. Okay, and this is good. This
is a library, by the way, with one hundred million
(32:42):
dollar plus endowment, private endowment addition to the public funds
one hundred million dollars. Okay, they shut down the library
right saying it'll be shut till further notice. They're they're
committed to fight, to fighting these cuts, these vicious cuts
and all this stuff. Again, five probationary employees. And then
the son, the grandson of JKJFK, who's that lunatic, goes
(33:06):
and does this big thing about it and online. And
then the next day, of course, the library opened is
normal on Wednesday. So it was closed in the middle
of the afternoon Tuesday, reopen Wednesday. The employees are still fired.
But across government, it's just this hysterical reaction to budget cutting,
as if people are entitled to these jobs. And the
(33:29):
government is required to keep growing and growing and growing,
and it's just it's it's disgustingly the entitlement. And you know,
sixty minutes parade out these people who are more of
these probationary workers who were like these twenty year olds,
these twenty somethings who thought they had a job for life,
and they're you know, attacking the Trump administration. They had
(33:52):
they had these just nonsensical, stupid jobs. I don't know,
some speech writer for some foreign foundation that gives money,
probably trying to destabilize foreign governments. And and then the
other guy, I don't even know what the other guy.
But these these these nitwits are are devastated because they
don't have a job for life now and and and
(34:14):
the pension and all this craziness. And and you know
what I say, I say, good for him. Good.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
Absolutely, I couldn't agree more. Yeah, I mean, we don't
we're paying for this. So some snot nosed kid who's
going to write speeches for some organization you've never heard
of on your dime gets told no, sorry, we don't
need it. You know what we're we're trillions of dollars
in debt somebody is eventually going to have to pay
(34:39):
for this. I'm going to be a responsible adult and
only keep the employees that the business I'm running, which
in this case happens to be the executive brands the
United States. It's not a jobs program. You're not entitled
to this job. That there should be no civil servant
that is entitled to their job. This isn't a university.
(34:59):
You have tenure. Okay, you work for the people of
the United States, and you're taking their money right out
of their pockets and putting it into your pocket. When
you're a civil servant of any stripe, and if you're
not producing for the people of the United States, if
you're not improving the life of the people of the
(35:20):
United States by the job that you do for the
government of the United States, then get out. It's as
simple as that. It doesn't matter whether we like you
don't like you. It's nothing personal. Right, you're not contributing,
so you're out. That's the way it works. And the
quicker that people can't get used to that. Like our grandparents,
Buddy had no doubt about that. They understood that if
(35:44):
they were employed, they had to produce, and if they didn't.
They were out, and they didn't see that as being
some criminal behavior. They just saw it as being the truth.
And frankly, they were better people than the people that
we have now, in no small part because they understood that.
Now we've just got a bunch of twenty year olds
(36:06):
who think the government should pay them for life to
include a pension because they exist, because they're just walking
around and that is insane.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
And the Kennedy kids a nitwit too. He should shut
that up and go get it. He should get it.
There's another thing. Should go get a job. Get a job.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Yeah, get a job and get a job. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
The mother doesn't have a job. The mother's been sucking
on the government teat all her life. Chelsea Clinton's been sucking.
You should see the money her foundation's getting from the government.
Luckily that's all been shut off now. But I mean,
it's unbelievable. None of these people have ever had a job.
Go get a job, Go start a company, go ahead, yeah,
do something. Leave us alone. We don't want it anymore.
(36:46):
Finally brought. I know we're running out of time, but
you know what thing that I think you and I
can agree on is that you know there has been
some change that maybe isn't necessary that the Trump administration
has been overseeing, and you almost have to go north
of the border to Kannada to see where you know,
(37:06):
what happens when that change doesn't take effect and you
just continue on the path you're on. I give you
Nathaniel Morin. Apparently this is a advisor to the government
in Kannada who won the Bouge Bouge. Bougie is a bougie.
(37:26):
I have no idea the Bouche Bouche five k on
February fifth, February fourth, twenty twenty four, Booch Booche. This
is a twenty something year old advisor who won the
female division. Came in first place with a time of
twenty five thirty two in the five k, airing the
(37:47):
title of the fastest female across all age categories, edging
out the runner up, who was a girl in the
ten to twelve age category who barely lost to twenty
six eight who would have won if the man Nathaniel
Moore and had not had not run. But Canadian law
(38:09):
brad unlike US law, has been changed by Donald Trump.
Canadian law protects the inclusion of men in little girls races.
So what do you think you think Canada has it
right here?
Speaker 3 (38:23):
How often look.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
At the silences?
Speaker 3 (38:25):
Be not fair to say. I mean, I'm sure Canada
does many things. Well, I really don't know, but.
Speaker 4 (38:30):
I mean, this is just the dumbest I don't even
know why this is still a topic of conversation. I
honestly don't look at this guy. Let me make it clear,
I don't care if you're a dude and you want
to dress up like a girl and give yourself a
girl's name and give yourself female pronouns and live your
life that way, I honest to goodness, don't care, right,
(38:50):
I just that is your choice. You may do it,
knock yourself out. But when you look the world in
the eye and say it is appropriate and fair, that
because I have made that choice to just change facts
(39:10):
by my own words, right that I'm just and I'm
going to take some medication that is going to reduce
the amount of testosterone my system, but is not going
to change the fact that I'm an adult male. And
just because I tell you to call me she and her,
I'm not going to compete in women's sports.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Is children against children?
Speaker 4 (39:34):
Effing ridiculous and you should be ashamed of yourself. Now again,
the choice to live your life that way is fine,
and nobody to my knowledge, to include Donald Trump, has
said you can't do that. You can't choose to live
your life that way. They've just said, you can't compete
against girls and sports.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
That's it.
Speaker 4 (39:52):
You can do all the rest of it. You can
stomp your foot and make people call you she and her.
You can grow your hair out, stuff you're broad. You
can do all of that if you want. What you
cannot do is pretend like it is fair to compete
against women in sports.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
That's it. That's the one thing you can't do.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
And if anyone takes the position that that's wrong, then
they're they're just an idiot who's bought into a narrative
that has no factual foundation. I am one hundred percent.
If you are a transactivist or a trans ally or
whatever they call it, and you want to support folks
in their trans lifestyle, go ahead that you are not
(40:32):
going to bother me in the least. I don't spend
a minute thinking about it. But the moment you enter
yourself in a five K and then tout the fact
that you're the fastest girl.
Speaker 3 (40:42):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
That's words up too far. I mean, it is crazy.
I don't want to again. We don't we don't. We
don't advocate violence here on the IP frequently of Me
Business podcast. I'm going to say that for the record,
but you know, maybe we should. Maybe we should. It's time.
Well there it is, Brad. I mean, we've covered a
lot here and you know what we didn't get to.
(41:03):
We didn't get to the we didn't get to the
Apparently the Pope is taking a turn for the worse.
He may have caught your your virus and there is
a short list of people to replace him. And I
wanted to go through that with you and get your
get your thoughts, but that'll have to be next week.
Remember you were the one that predicted Cardinal Ratzinger, who
(41:24):
had a questionable past with his dalliances with Nazism, would
become pope, and he he did. He was Pope.
Speaker 3 (41:31):
PopEd it right up.
Speaker 2 (41:33):
Mm hmm. But anyway, I'll I'll that'll be like a
little tease for next week, all.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
Right, buddy, Well you know what we did again. We
survived it. My voice is shot, but that's okay. It
was worth it.
Speaker 4 (41:47):
To get this information out for the listeners of this
very fun program, and so you know when they luck
at all, when when we do this again next week,
my normal voice will be back.
Speaker 3 (41:57):
Perhaps that will be disappointing for some.
Speaker 4 (41:59):
Who enjoy this raspy, gravelly, you know, sort of sexy
voice I have. But regardless, we'll be back and we'll
do it all again, dropping those two thousand pound truth
bombs right here on IP frequently.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
This has been IP frequently, once again, clearing a forest
of lies with the machete of truth.
Speaker 3 (42:22):
You're welcome.
