Speaker 1 (00:10):
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Kaddy Armstrong and
Jet and Hee arm from the studio.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Ce geez in your cramp I forgot thanks for walking
him in. And so it's Wednesday, So you get a
camelon studio.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Whose idea was this?
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Originally to have a camelon studio over Home Day? Oh
it's cool and it made you know, good Instagram pictures
or whatever, But the somehouse traditions need to be left behind.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Jack times changed twenty percent. The spell. It's over.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Although we bought the camel on pramante, we own it.
I mean, in wondering you could list it on eBay.
I guess anyway, Deep put in those camblet, just asking,
don't say it how loud he can hear you.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
We're gonna slaughter you and eat you.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Today we're under the tutelage of our general manager Trump's ballroom.
All right, Well, okay, I thought I thought we covered
that yesterday. Isn't that the all taken care of?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Still the thing there. The Left is still trying to
flog it. But they're desperate. They're casting about for something
to be uh to the rally around.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I guess so. Uh.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I've seen this story twice in the last two days,
and it's a it's a burn my saddle, and I
got to get the burr out of my saddle because
it's starting to cause all kinds of uh chafing and whatnot. Sure,
there's been a story two days in a row, once
on News Nation and then once on CNN about this
first comprehensive study out whether banning phones in classrooms is
(02:04):
a benefit to students, and a study that came out
of some school district in Florida showed that test scores
went up, and more books were being checked out of
the library and a variety of other positive things. Now
they emphasize both days, actually disciplinary actions went up, detentions
(02:28):
and that sort of thing for kids who wouldn't give
up their phone. Yeah, no freaking kidding. You have a
new rule. Yeah, And it just makes me grind my
teeth listening to that.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
And then they have conversations back and forth.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
You I could see some positives here, but you also
have the what are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (02:48):
What are you talking about? Our media is dominated by
half wits.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Well in.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Our schools apparently that this is even a question.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I guess I'm waiting for some more studies to come in,
more comprehensi studies to see if it would benefit students
to not let them.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Stare at their phones during class.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Yeah, we need we need far fewer PhDs in our
schools and far more common sense. What normal mom and dad,
grandma on grandpa? I can't go mom and dad. Maybe
go grandm on grandpa, so you can go back a generation,
what normal grandmon grandpa would say.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
You know, jury's still out whether or not it's okay
to have your kid sit in there watching videos and
with the earbuds in because my son says that's what
happens in his science class. Uh, how that's going to
affect their education?
Speaker 1 (03:37):
How crazy is that?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
There are plenty of progressive crazy guys involved. But I
think this is another example of our giant topic from yesterday,
the feminization of America, as women have taken over the
leadership roles in school districts and schools. The idea of no,
that's a bad idea, you can't do it. I don't
care if it makes you unhappy. We're not doing it.
Dad has gone and the consensus building. Not wanting to
(04:02):
hurt anybody's feelings, maybe we should do another study. PhD
holding theory, book learning, but no street smarts, academic female crowd.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Has taken over.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
So I've been wondering this for a while since both
my kids have talked about it before. Now my son
is in a private school where they don't allow this,
but either side in the public school which he'd taken
one public schoolroom class, and there are a couple of
girls in there that sit in there with earbuds in
watching videos on their phone, and the teacher allows us.
So I want to hear from teachers. Are you told
(04:37):
you're not allowed to take their phones away from them?
And then how do you keep doing your job? Is
it just a I made this career choice. This is
where I live. I'm kind of stuck here, sort of thinking.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I couldn't do it. I couldn't sit up. Then test
scores are down, you will be blamed.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
I couldn't stand up there trying to teach biology or
American history or whatever and look at out and see
kids staring at their phones.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
I couldn't do it. I'd walk over. Give me your phone?
What give me your phone?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
You can have it back into the class and then
walk up there and sit on the desk, and then
I go.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Back to talking.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
And if I get fired over that, then I need
I guess I need a new career or a new
school district, because that's insane.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
It's me. It's so insane. It's making me crazy.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
It's it's so interesting, isn't it that something that insane
and out there kids allowed to essentially just watch TV
during class is allowed.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
It's so insane. It makes you think, am I missing
something here?
Speaker 2 (05:35):
That's why it's making me crazy. It's a cognitive disonance thing.
It's this can't be happening, yet it is happening. Where
do the things don't match up?
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Here?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Am I wrong? No?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I know I'm not wrong, but wow, wow again, that's why.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
I got there from a teacher.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Do they make you do this? And how do you
swallow that? I could not swallow that. Yeah, yeah, well again.
I love and value women in every aspect of life,
but America needs a whole lot more. Dad, This is
a whole I was gonna say. This is a male
teacher in Henry's class. By the way, and a whole
lot less restorative justice. Gentle parenting?
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Is that what that?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
That trend was called gentle parenting? Can you remember that? No?
You never say no when you say, all right, let's
talk about what's making you kick the dog in the head.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Yeah I'm saying, I'm saying gentle parenting. Yeah, yeah, Yeah.
We need a hell of a lot less of that.
My god, we're a soft society, I caramba.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
I don't know, it's just so. Is that emblematic?
Speaker 2 (06:39):
I think feel like it's emblematic of other things, just
that we just ignore obvious solutions to things right right,
we've been dragged so far away from sanity where we're
not sure what it looks like anymore.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
I suppose it fits in with the No.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Of course, people can't just put a tent right here
in front of this store and living right.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
You can't live on a sidewalk. Get off the sidewalk, people,
you can't live on the sidewalk. It is all related
the question of standards and whether you enforce them or not.
Kids are bringing a television set into the classroom with them,
don't tell just because it's a small screen doesn't make
it less a television set for us oldsters who need
(07:20):
to conceive of it, you know, in old timey terms.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
That's so effing nuts, it's hilarious.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
I know that anybody would put up with it for
ten seconds. What is the matter with us, America? Well,
it's probably not with us, it's with them. What's the
matter with them, America? It's actually significantly better than the
television set people like you and I grew up with
because of the options we had three channels and nothing on.
They get it right and they whorld at their fingertips
for entertainment. That I guarantee is more interesting than what
(07:48):
the biology teacher is talking about. Well, it's more endorphin inducing.
Uh so crazy, so crazy? Okay, well maybe you'll hear
that study. Initially there were discipline issues and they went up,
but they the second year, the discipline issues went down.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Yeah, I'm sure they did because the kids got used
to those rules. Maybe, I swear we need to gut
our government schools, empty them of children. Find so I
want to win one of those billion dollar lotteries so
I can give one hundred and fifty thousand scholarships to
(08:26):
good kids from good families who don't have the money
to go to private schools.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Oh I wish I had Elon Musk's money. That's what
I'd do.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I'd open up, but I would you know, I might
not open up a new one, because there are some
great schools that do exactly what we're talking about and
avoid the insanity.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
They exist.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
They just cost a few bucks to run because they're
not getting taxpayer money, and oh my god, I would
love to find a way to finance those Yeah, no kidding.
So last week I proably shouldn't talk about this on
the air, but my oldest lost his cell phone privileges
for academic reasons. Briefly, grades have to be at a
(09:07):
certain level if you want to have your cell phone,
so he didn't have standards again, and it was a
slight adjustment to not be able to like text him
immediately or him text me. Well, we got over fast,
because we all remember it wasn't that many years ago.
Everybody went to school and got picked up and sports
practice and banned and this and that and everything without
cell phones.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
It was fine. We managed.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
It just takes a slight bit more planning of you know,
you have band today, I'll pick you up at five
point fifteen normal walt as opposed to you wait till
that afternoon to text him. But I mean it took
like a day to get back to figuring that out.
It's not that hard. So the argument of why I
can't get a hold of my kid h blah blah blah,
(09:48):
it's just dumb and well, especially if the if the if,
that is a so therefore they need to be able
to start their phone in class. That doesn't add up
to a anyway. We are too tolerant in this society,
too tolerant of stupid ideas for one thing. Stop being tolerant, folks.
(10:10):
You have our permission. I was speak for a jack
and myself. You have our permission to call stupid ideas stupid.
Have fun once you get used to it.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
It's great. The Louver opened back up a day today.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
How about people who went to France on vacation and
they're planning to go to the Louver and it was
closed for several days and it was just it's kind
of a ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Closing, acting like you're doing something.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Situation anyway, But I just heard the fan to go
unlock the windows or you know, total value in US
dollars one hundred and two million dollars. Oof, and it
turns out there is no private insurance on that stuff,
so it ain't gonna be an insurance deal.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Oh wow, one hundred and two million dollars.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
And most experts think they probably within hours melted that
stuff down or carved out the diamonds so that they
could get them sent out.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
That's a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Man, you were wondering why you just didn't hit a
couple of jewelry stores. It'd be hard to hit one
hundred and two million dollars and fifteen minutes anywhere.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Was it at the.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Beginning of the show yesterday that I made my metaphor
about France. France is the guy you see at the
twentieth for the twentieth high school reunion who is clearly
just gone downhill, just not good, and you try to
be cheerful and hey, it's good to see you turn
things out. France is a failure in life. France is stumbling, fumbling,
(11:31):
bumbling its way to complete irrelevance, missing a tooth, sleeping
in its car. Oh yeah, yeah, until he gets repossessed.
That's some nice architecture, but embarrassing. Let's start the show Officially,
I'm Jack Armstrong, he's Joe Getty on how did he
get to be already? Wednesday? Up the freaking gamble October
twenty three. You are twenty twenty five. We are armstrong
(11:53):
in getting we approve of this program. Let's begin then, officially,
according to FCC rules and regulations, here we go calling
out the dumb idea at Mark.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Obviously, it is.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
A system designed to make huge profits for the insurance
companies and the drug companies right period.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
That is Bernie Sanders being one hundred percent correct. He's
talking about Obamacare and how it has been a windfall
to insurance companies but has done nothing to make affordable
care affordable. Remember it's called the Affordable Care Act, and
it's just completely broken down. Yeah, a lot of attention
has been paid to Even the Washington Post last week
(12:32):
said the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare, which was never affordable.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Even they said that in the Washington Post.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
That's interesting, right, We got a lot on a lot
of different news fronts to get too. We got Katie's
headlines coming up, hoping c figure out yo yo yo,
So we finally know what was going on in the
Biden White House. At the end because the White House
Press spokesman KJP has put out a new book and
(12:59):
she is revealing all. We will have that for you
coming up in a little bit. Has she broken her silence? Oh,
she broke her silence? Ugh, boy, tell him truth speaking
truth to power or something. All right, it's being a
powerful woman spitting truth. There she is with the headlines today.
Who's reporting what? It's the lead story with Katie Green Katy.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
And this is bad news, Katie.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
A friend of mine was abducted by a troop of mimes.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yeah, they get unspeakable things to him. Hey, that's what
I'm looking for every morning. Oh thank you Jack? Wow,
child you child like sodomy.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
No no, no, you're not supposed to follow up with
a tag. I shouldn't have said that.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Wow what whoa I went? I shouldn't have done that.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
No, no, no, it was good before quick Katie start
yes ENDBC.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
Trump puts Putin talks on hold as Kremlin launches deadly
new attacks on Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Yeah, big attack on Kiev and a bunch of other towns,
and not in any way military installations or anything that.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Just trying to kill civilians.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Yeah, Trump's saying that another summit would be a waste
of time. Yes, correct, Yeah, so some people are seeing
that as he's backing off trying to.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Come into a solution.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Other people, I think I would think, Okay, he's not
once again.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Going to go through that whole rigamarole for no point.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
You guys were just talking about schools. This one from
Katie Grimes at cal Globe failure is a choice. California
students still testing below COVID nineteen pandemic scores in math
and English.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
How does this not get more attention? How does it
always turn into but we need more money for schools?
Speaker 1 (14:42):
That's so mad.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
It's as if teaching the kids isn't even close to
their top priority.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Huh.
Speaker 5 (14:49):
In the same vein from the New York Times, colleges
face a reckoning.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Is a degree really necessary? No?
Speaker 4 (14:57):
No?
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Is it worth a craft?
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Any company that it still makes it mandatory? You have
to degree? God, you gotta stop. Hey, let's see. You
know obviously it's scientists, engineer, doctor or whatever, but just
entry level positions. And you still think a four year
degree means something it does not, And you're encouraging the
whole charade.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
What was it I heard the other day.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
A buddy of mine think he said in the radio industry,
he said his first radio job, it was required to
have a four year degree before they did.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Somebody that's so nuts From the New York Post.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
Whiz is like Tinder for kids, as teens are using
the app to hook up with each other.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
And adult predators. Whiz how spelled how.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
W izz, and they're selling it like as a way
for kids to meet friends.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Come on, oh, the children's tender Okay?
Speaker 5 (15:50):
From USA today, millennials might be raising velcro kids.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Okay, so the helicopter parents and their velcrow kids and
their lawnmower grandparents.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
What is that bellcro kid?
Speaker 5 (16:03):
A belcro kid is a kid that like cannot go
without physical touch and has to be with their parents
at all times.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
This one from study fines men peak at sixteen women
at nineteen gender shapes when music hits us the hardest,
when we enjoy music the most, and when it really
starts to affect us when you hear it and start
taking in the message.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Men sixteen women nineteen is that we say, Okay, that
sounds about rights for us. That's funny unless so many
of my favorite albums are from roughly when I was sixteen,
when music really started to impacting me, I guess.
Speaker 5 (16:43):
And finally from the Babylon b White House, construction crew
finds one, three D and fifty seven more cocaine stashes.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Ah oh, speaking of music, can we stop with the
boomer hero biopics?
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Please? No kidding?
Speaker 2 (17:02):
I have Bruce one coming out with your guy from
the Bear is a zero interesting seeing that for some
reason I've been on a Springsteen kick. I do not
want to see that movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
we get it. KJP breaks her silence about what it
was like on the Biden White House.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
You're gonna be shocked. Armstrong and Getty, how are you doing?
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Before we get into the main dish this segment, I
had one more thing to say about Bruce Springsteen. All right,
and you must keep in mind that I have been
well since I was a teenager talking about when you
peak your interest in music, A huge fan of his songwriting,
and I stand by that. I think he's a wonderful
songwriter and lyricist, musical songwriter and lyricist. He's also an
(17:49):
insufferable prick in a bit of a phony. But but
I don't need to love the artist, to love the art.
I think that's a good practice. But so I was
getting sucked into the YouTube vortex after I watched my
newses the other night, and generally I relaxed by watching
music stuff, and I was watching a Bruce show from
(18:13):
nineteen seventy five in uh was it.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
In New York?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I can't remember, but it was absolutely fantastic. As you've
said many times, don't watch or don't listen to what
they do when they're a legend, check out what made
them a legend. And this was just a crazy show.
But I completely figured him out watching that show. Here
is Bruce Springsteen for a particularly in his heyday.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
I'm a vagabond artist with a floppy head on off
the streets. But wait, I'm a master showman, an entertainer,
and I can barely croak out these songs because.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
They affect me so much.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
But wait, my band is incredibly well rehearsed and I
am clearly their leader.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
So enjoy the show, folks.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
He's so funny, so well crafted as an entertainer, but
part of his act is I'm not an entertainer.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
I'm a vagabond.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Poet from the street, working class. I'm just I can
barely sing up here. I'm so tired from being in
the factory all day. In his memoir, which I've been
listening to, he actually mentions how he was a whoosy,
poetic artistic kid who got picked on a lot, because
that's just who he is. It's not the tough working class,
(19:33):
leather jacket, cool car guy he was. He got everything
he wanted from his grandma and was a whoosy little
poet kid, right right, which is fine, which is absolutely fine.
He then he crafted an image. Yeah, all right, So,
speaking of public figures, Initially I kind of wanted to
pass on this KJP making the book tour for her
(19:55):
hotly awaited by No. One book about her days in
the White House. But she is indeed doing interviews and
it's not going terribly well.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Who buys these freaking things?
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Why do publishing companies still give out so much money
to these books that whoever reads any of them?
Speaker 1 (20:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
It's kind to have something to do with you put
them in the bookstore at the at the airport and
it'll bring more people in and you'll sell them.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
We'll gum or something. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Is it just sales inside the Beltway, I don't know.
But she was talking to Stephen Colbert the other night.
We've got some clips of that. Let's just start with
one hundred and see how it goes.
Speaker 7 (20:32):
Michael, I saw a guy who I had not seen
backstage at the benefit that I did. It seemed like
a dramatically different person, and at eighty one years old,
that's not entirely unexpected.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
You can imagine why people got so worried.
Speaker 6 (20:46):
So a couple of things. I got to see Joe
Biden almost every day. And this is a question that
I take very seriously. I never no one has ever
said he has an age. No one ever said that
he would make jokes about it. He would acknowledge it,
and he would say, yes, I know, I don't speak
this as well as I used to. I don't walk
as well as I used to. No one is saying
(21:07):
that he didn't age. I'm talking about, was he did
he have the questions that I was getting, the mental acuity?
Was he able to govern? And the man that I
saw nearly every day, he was someone who was engaging,
understood policy, and was always putting the American people first.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
And it showed clearly we love you too.
Speaker 6 (21:31):
Able to get done.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
What are you people clapping about? Right right? Boy?
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Nobody buys that Colbert follows up right here, go ahead.
Did Colbert just admit that he saw the doddering, yes,
dementia ridden Biden behind the scenes and kept his mouth
shut about it? Right right, I'll go ahead, play the
next slip, and I've got a point to make.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I remember I saw going.
Speaker 7 (21:54):
To questioned his heart or his policies. It takes more
than that to be the president of United States. And
in a moment of great pressure on stage, we saw
someone shock us and worry us, and no, nothing could
assuage that worry. So I don't think it was necessarily
a betrayal of Joe Biden, as other people saying, we
(22:15):
don't think we were shown Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
That you saw.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
That's so wild that there's the don't I don't even
understand what's going on there. So she's claiming Biden was
betrayed by the Democrats. Well, I don't even get the
Stephen Colbert angle. So now he's like Jake Tapper. I
knew he was mentally, you know, challenge and shouldn't be president.
But why why didn't you come out and tell everybody
(22:43):
so I could say it?
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Why didn't you give me permission to say that? Which
was plainly true.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
And everybody knew. Yeah, it's so weird. One more clip
one O two, Michael.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
I saw every day a really ugly assault on some
one who had fifty plus years of experience and who
again objectively, had done a good job as president of
the United States. And it was heartbreaking to see that
type of behavior.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Wow, what quickly assault? Are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (23:17):
The media entirely covering up what was right before everybody's eyes.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Right?
Speaker 2 (23:22):
And then if on my closing argument and I'm sure
the jury will be persuaded by this, then in other
clips we've heard, she's made multiple excuses for why Joe
Biden was utterly incoherent in the debate, including, well, he'd
traveled some Well, you don't get to be president. Then
he was nervous about his son's trial. Well, then you
(23:45):
don't have this stuff to be president. What was he Oh,
he'd had a cold the previous week or something. No,
if you're that week, you are not fit to be president. KJP.
How do you not grock that? How do you not
comprehend that, right, because China could invade Taiwan when you've
got a cold, or you just got back from France,
(24:06):
or your son got in trouble with the law.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
All those things can happen. You'd still have to make
a decision.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Yeah, our shortstop made three errs because he'd had to
run to first base the previous inning.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Well, then he's not fit to be a professional ball player.
That didn't know.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
You can't say that, KJP, you little twit wow with
an eye, Yes, clearly, Wow.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Just sad.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Even the Stephen Colberts of the world are like, dude, come.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
On about the crowd backing up her. Yeah, you don't
let him try to tear down Joe Biden. We love you,
Joe institutions, I hear you. Wow, Wow, just amazing. All right,
what else can we avoid ever doing that again? I
(24:56):
wonder if we can. I don't know if we can.
What's that specifically?
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Uh, you know, maybe it fits in with the whole
the cell phones in classrooms saying we were talking about earlier,
just ignoring what's obviously true before our eyes for political
reasons or convenience reasons or whatever. I don't know, right, right. Oh,
here's Joe Getty's stat of the day. I grabbed this
I was hoping I would remember, and here I have
to my surprise.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Picture.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
What excuse me, dang koffmin picture what the world's going
to look like in fifty years? Politically speaking? You know,
I have no idea. I don't have any idea what
it's going to be in five years. No idea. Yeah, yeah,
no kidding. Here's your stat of the day. Nigeria this
year will have more births than all of Europe combined.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Wow, one country in Africa.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I don't have the slightest idea how big Nigeria is,
but doesn't really make any difference.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
It's still amazing. It's a very big country.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Here.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
There are your fertility rates in Europe, keeping in mind
that two point two is generally considered replacement rate two
point two children per mother because the dudes aren't having
any babies in spite of what the Left would tell you,
so you gotta have a mommy and a daddy out
of a mommy to keep the thing going. In point
(26:20):
two has to do with infant mortality and just bubblem
Monaco is the champion of Europe. It's tiny little country
at two point one. They're not moost replacement, so the
leader is below replacement rate. That's not good. Then you
got Montenegro one point eight down the line. I'll just
pick some of the big eiaes if you include Russia's
(26:43):
at one point five, Germany's at one point five. Russia
and they're killing off their young men like crazy for
no good reason. Wow, Poland one point three, Spain one
point two, Malta one point one, Ukraine one point zero.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Oof.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Well that's just kind of a special case, but wow,
but those countries are half of replacement, right Yeah. Well
then so then the we're allowing too much illegal immigration
and it's going to change our culture thing. At that point,
that arguments kind of moot in that there ain't going
to be any Polish people left, so unless you want
(27:23):
it to be empty, you might as well let people
from another country come in and have their run of
the country with their food and songs and government, because
you ain't got no people. Specifically, Nigeria has about seven
million live births per year.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Europe as a whole.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
Which is in the forties depending on your definition of
what's a Europe, but has about four and a half
maximum million verse per year. Nigeria wins by seven seven
million to four and a half million. Wow, the world
will look so much different in several decades because of that.
(28:02):
Regardless of what happens politically or anything, it doesn't make
any difference. So we've be major, major changes just because
of those demographics. One final note, and I hate to
interrupt the fun that we've had, but there is a
actual genocide going on right now by Nigeria's Muslims against
Nigeria's Christians, actually being rounded up and slaughtered for their
(28:25):
religion in the fastest growing country on Earth. Perhaps well yeah, yeah, sorry,
I apologize. I was heavy and the Western civilization that
had conquered that sort of division to where you slaughtered
each other over your religion or race or whatever.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Enlightenment.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
We became enlightened decided to stop having kids and we'll
go away. Yes, yeah, we got dark ages coming. Good
luck everybody. I'll be dead, so don't matter me. I'll
be long dead. I probably got told this weekend, so
we got We've got mail bag on the way and
a whole bunch of other stuff.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Stay here.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
I have no interest in the shutdown, but this whole
argument around Obamacare or the Affordable Care Act and whether
or not we're just gonna decide to go full socialized
medicine is a pretty big story.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
One hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Yeah, and healthcare, my goodness, is there anybody assembled here
today who isn't constantly shocked at the cost of insurance
and then co pays and drugs and then the start
of every year how long it takes to hit your
deductible and the mystery charges.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Want to talk about that later on.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Yeah, anyway, so we'll talk about that at some point
coming up also next hour, follow up on our hour
almost yesterday about the great feminization. That discussion will share
a lot of you good folks emails to us which
are very very interesting and full of real life examples
(29:58):
and thoughts, so please do stay too. And here is
your freedom loving quote of the day, sent along by
alert listener Aaron, who's really been enjoying Frederick Frederick Bastiat's
The Law, great philosopher, writer, etc.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
If you don't know it, it's worth a read. Here's
your quote.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
When a portion of wealth passes from the person who
has earned it, without his consent and without compensation, to
one who has not created it. Whether this is by
force or fraud. I say that property is undermined and
that there is plunder.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Well, that happens a lot.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
So if mom Donny's plan goes through in New York,
if you made a million dollars, you would keep four
hundred and fifty thousand of it. Yeah, well, the law
street would go to one different or another different kind
of government. The Journal editorial board was taking a look
at some of his plans and how utterly impossible they
(30:57):
are financially, including a lot of them depend on the
state raising income tax significantly. And the governor who's running
for election now is a jackass, Kathy Oakle.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
But she's saying no.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
No, I'm not going to do that as I try
to run for reelection. It is completely hollow promises. Anyway,
mailbag drops note mailbag at Armstrong Yeddy dot com. So
again the great feminization stuff. Next hour. Here's some other affair.
Here's your mem of the day, sent by deb How
do we expect a group of people who don't know
the difference between a man and a woman to know
(31:31):
the difference between a king and a president.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Ah, that's a bit of a shot. And he's got
a penis. Now it doesn't work for that one. Yeah,
it's no, not with the no moving along. Let's see.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Joseph writes, Hey, guys, what's the update on Jack's Ukrainian girlfriend?
I know she dropped off and she must have found
an ghost. She must have found another. Oh no, I
wasn't getting back to her fast enough. Remember she said,
our love can't continue if I don't start answering her
questions and emailing her.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
God, your love died of neglect. Yep, yep. I didn't
water the love and it died. You put your career first,
didn't you.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Huh, let's see how about casey?
Speaker 5 (32:13):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Actually, as long as we're getting personal, somebody wrote and
asked Katie how you're feeling in these early days of
your pregnancy.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
It's it comes in waves, yes, yeah, tired, hungry, and
in pain in certain times.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Oh you got I'm eating I'm eating everything. There you go.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Yeah, that's that's fun. Any morning sickness or anything. They
were asking. Yeah, this is none of our business unless
you want to. You know, I'll share it.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
Hits in waves every now and then. A couple times
during the show, I've had to take off, but we're good.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Some women love being pregnant, and those women should probably
keep their mouths shut because other women hate hearing that.
That's been my experience. It can it well, it's there
are times that it's a bit of a rough road.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
But it's the people that go, oh, just wait, shut up.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Yeah, yeah, don't do that with this is a tip
to me now that I've had two kids that are
now teenagers. Don't do that with any aspect of anybody
starting out their family. Let them enjoy the whole the
whole thing. Wait till this happens, Wait till that happens. No, no, no,
not cool.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Yeah, people enjoy being the wise and old sage. Yeah
you just went don't again, that's that's not cool.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Anyway.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Moving along on the topic of doctor Fauci and peanuts,
Casey writes the fact that they interviewed Fauci.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
On what network was it? Do you remember CBS yesterday?
Speaker 2 (33:30):
They were talking to him about the peanutalergy and I
saw his face of that, who the hell wants to
see doctor Fauci's face? Well, Casey points out the fact
that they interviewed Fauci about the peanut allergy epidemic created
by bad advice from healthcare professionals is beyond ironic, not
just because of COVID.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
But going back to HIV in the eighties.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
She says, the book, or it could be case Casey
with a K is probably a woman right. The book
I first read about the peanut allergy epidemic was Blind
Spots by Marty McCarry after hearing him on your show.
So highlighted in that book is the HIV epidemic and
how it spread through the blood supply because there are
paying people for blood donations at the time. Fauci was
the head of the National Health Institute at the time
(34:10):
and strongly denied that it was spreading it all through
blood donations and the chances were one in a million
when they were much much higher.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
He later admitted that it was a problem.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Fauci's probably working on gain of function research to develop
a peanut that will kill us.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
All you know's his whole career is.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
I am so wise, I know it is best, and
if I have to pull the wool over the eyes
of the simpletons, I will do so. For I have
decided if I have to tell a noble lie because
people aren't smart enough to handle the truth, I will
do it right. He ought to get together with James
Comy and just open up a consultancy for Hubris. California
is redistricting Prop fifty ben Wrights on this topic, ads
(34:53):
run on a station we have it to be on,
paid for by the Teachers Union, states that people of
color's rights will be taken away if you don't vote
yes on property. It starts with we are under attack
about fell out of my chair.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Wow. Wow, democracy doesn't work, man, It just doesn't work.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Not anymore monarchy now, no kings, Yes King. We got
so much good stuff coming up an hour two. If
you don't get to get the podcast Armstrong and Getty
on demand
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Armstrong and Getty
Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George
Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Kaddy Armstrong and
Jet and Hee arm from the studio.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Ce geez in your cramp I forgot thanks for walking
him in. And so it's Wednesday, So you get a
camelon studio.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Whose idea was this?
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Originally to have a camelon studio over Home Day? Oh
it's cool and it made you know, good Instagram pictures
or whatever, But the somehouse traditions need to be left behind.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Jack times changed twenty percent. The spell. It's over.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Although we bought the camel on pramante, we own it.
I mean, in wondering you could list it on eBay.
I guess anyway, Deep put in those camblet, just asking,
don't say it how loud he can hear you.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
We're gonna slaughter you and eat you.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Today we're under the tutelage of our general manager Trump's ballroom.
All right, Well, okay, I thought I thought we covered
that yesterday. Isn't that the all taken care of?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Still the thing there. The Left is still trying to
flog it. But they're desperate. They're casting about for something
to be uh to the rally around.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I guess so. Uh.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I've seen this story twice in the last two days,
and it's a it's a burn my saddle, and I
got to get the burr out of my saddle because
it's starting to cause all kinds of uh chafing and whatnot. Sure,
there's been a story two days in a row, once
on News Nation and then once on CNN about this
first comprehensive study out whether banning phones in classrooms is
(02:04):
a benefit to students, and a study that came out
of some school district in Florida showed that test scores
went up, and more books were being checked out of
the library and a variety of other positive things. Now
they emphasize both days, actually disciplinary actions went up, detentions
(02:28):
and that sort of thing for kids who wouldn't give
up their phone. Yeah, no freaking kidding. You have a
new rule. Yeah, And it just makes me grind my
teeth listening to that.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
And then they have conversations back and forth.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
You I could see some positives here, but you also
have the what are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (02:48):
What are you talking about? Our media is dominated by
half wits.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Well in.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Our schools apparently that this is even a question.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I guess I'm waiting for some more studies to come in,
more comprehensi studies to see if it would benefit students
to not let them.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Stare at their phones during class.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Yeah, we need we need far fewer PhDs in our
schools and far more common sense. What normal mom and dad,
grandma on grandpa? I can't go mom and dad. Maybe
go grandm on grandpa, so you can go back a generation,
what normal grandmon grandpa would say.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
You know, jury's still out whether or not it's okay
to have your kid sit in there watching videos and
with the earbuds in because my son says that's what
happens in his science class. Uh, how that's going to
affect their education?
Speaker 1 (03:37):
How crazy is that?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
There are plenty of progressive crazy guys involved. But I
think this is another example of our giant topic from yesterday,
the feminization of America, as women have taken over the
leadership roles in school districts and schools. The idea of no,
that's a bad idea, you can't do it. I don't
care if it makes you unhappy. We're not doing it.
Dad has gone and the consensus building. Not wanting to
(04:02):
hurt anybody's feelings, maybe we should do another study. PhD
holding theory, book learning, but no street smarts, academic female crowd.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Has taken over.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
So I've been wondering this for a while since both
my kids have talked about it before. Now my son
is in a private school where they don't allow this,
but either side in the public school which he'd taken
one public schoolroom class, and there are a couple of
girls in there that sit in there with earbuds in
watching videos on their phone, and the teacher allows us.
So I want to hear from teachers. Are you told
(04:37):
you're not allowed to take their phones away from them?
And then how do you keep doing your job? Is
it just a I made this career choice. This is
where I live. I'm kind of stuck here, sort of thinking.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I couldn't do it. I couldn't sit up. Then test
scores are down, you will be blamed.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
I couldn't stand up there trying to teach biology or
American history or whatever and look at out and see
kids staring at their phones.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
I couldn't do it. I'd walk over. Give me your phone?
What give me your phone?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
You can have it back into the class and then
walk up there and sit on the desk, and then
I go.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Back to talking.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
And if I get fired over that, then I need
I guess I need a new career or a new
school district, because that's insane.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
It's me. It's so insane. It's making me crazy.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
It's it's so interesting, isn't it that something that insane
and out there kids allowed to essentially just watch TV
during class is allowed.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
It's so insane. It makes you think, am I missing
something here?
Speaker 2 (05:35):
That's why it's making me crazy. It's a cognitive disonance thing.
It's this can't be happening, yet it is happening. Where
do the things don't match up?
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Here?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Am I wrong? No?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
I know I'm not wrong, but wow, wow again, that's why.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
I got there from a teacher.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Do they make you do this? And how do you
swallow that? I could not swallow that. Yeah, yeah, well again.
I love and value women in every aspect of life,
but America needs a whole lot more. Dad, This is
a whole I was gonna say. This is a male
teacher in Henry's class. By the way, and a whole
lot less restorative justice. Gentle parenting?
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Is that what that?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
That trend was called gentle parenting? Can you remember that? No?
You never say no when you say, all right, let's
talk about what's making you kick the dog in the head.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
Yeah I'm saying, I'm saying gentle parenting. Yeah, yeah, Yeah.
We need a hell of a lot less of that.
My god, we're a soft society, I caramba.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
I don't know, it's just so. Is that emblematic?
Speaker 2 (06:39):
I think feel like it's emblematic of other things, just
that we just ignore obvious solutions to things right right,
we've been dragged so far away from sanity where we're
not sure what it looks like anymore.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
I suppose it fits in with the No.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Of course, people can't just put a tent right here
in front of this store and living right.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
You can't live on a sidewalk. Get off the sidewalk, people,
you can't live on the sidewalk. It is all related
the question of standards and whether you enforce them or not.
Kids are bringing a television set into the classroom with them,
don't tell just because it's a small screen doesn't make
it less a television set for us oldsters who need
(07:20):
to conceive of it, you know, in old timey terms.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
That's so effing nuts, it's hilarious.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
I know that anybody would put up with it for
ten seconds. What is the matter with us, America? Well,
it's probably not with us, it's with them. What's the
matter with them, America? It's actually significantly better than the
television set people like you and I grew up with
because of the options we had three channels and nothing on.
They get it right and they whorld at their fingertips
for entertainment. That I guarantee is more interesting than what
(07:48):
the biology teacher is talking about. Well, it's more endorphin inducing.
Uh so crazy, so crazy? Okay, well maybe you'll hear
that study. Initially there were discipline issues and they went up,
but they the second year, the discipline issues went down.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Yeah, I'm sure they did because the kids got used
to those rules. Maybe, I swear we need to gut
our government schools, empty them of children. Find so I
want to win one of those billion dollar lotteries so
I can give one hundred and fifty thousand scholarships to
(08:26):
good kids from good families who don't have the money
to go to private schools.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Oh I wish I had Elon Musk's money. That's what
I'd do.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I'd open up, but I would you know, I might
not open up a new one, because there are some
great schools that do exactly what we're talking about and
avoid the insanity.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
They exist.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
They just cost a few bucks to run because they're
not getting taxpayer money, and oh my god, I would
love to find a way to finance those Yeah, no kidding.
So last week I proably shouldn't talk about this on
the air, but my oldest lost his cell phone privileges
for academic reasons. Briefly, grades have to be at a
(09:07):
certain level if you want to have your cell phone,
so he didn't have standards again, and it was a
slight adjustment to not be able to like text him
immediately or him text me. Well, we got over fast,
because we all remember it wasn't that many years ago.
Everybody went to school and got picked up and sports
practice and banned and this and that and everything without
cell phones.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
It was fine. We managed.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
It just takes a slight bit more planning of you know,
you have band today, I'll pick you up at five
point fifteen normal walt as opposed to you wait till
that afternoon to text him. But I mean it took
like a day to get back to figuring that out.
It's not that hard. So the argument of why I
can't get a hold of my kid h blah blah blah,
(09:48):
it's just dumb and well, especially if the if the if,
that is a so therefore they need to be able
to start their phone in class. That doesn't add up
to a anyway. We are too tolerant in this society,
too tolerant of stupid ideas for one thing. Stop being tolerant, folks.
(10:10):
You have our permission. I was speak for a jack
and myself. You have our permission to call stupid ideas stupid.
Have fun once you get used to it.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
It's great. The Louver opened back up a day today.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
How about people who went to France on vacation and
they're planning to go to the Louver and it was
closed for several days and it was just it's kind
of a ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Closing, acting like you're doing something.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Situation anyway, But I just heard the fan to go
unlock the windows or you know, total value in US
dollars one hundred and two million dollars. Oof, and it
turns out there is no private insurance on that stuff,
so it ain't gonna be an insurance deal.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Oh wow, one hundred and two million dollars.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
And most experts think they probably within hours melted that
stuff down or carved out the diamonds so that they
could get them sent out.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
That's a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Man, you were wondering why you just didn't hit a
couple of jewelry stores. It'd be hard to hit one
hundred and two million dollars and fifteen minutes anywhere.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Was it at the.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Beginning of the show yesterday that I made my metaphor
about France. France is the guy you see at the
twentieth for the twentieth high school reunion who is clearly
just gone downhill, just not good, and you try to
be cheerful and hey, it's good to see you turn
things out. France is a failure in life. France is stumbling, fumbling,
(11:31):
bumbling its way to complete irrelevance, missing a tooth, sleeping
in its car. Oh yeah, yeah, until he gets repossessed.
That's some nice architecture, but embarrassing. Let's start the show Officially,
I'm Jack Armstrong, he's Joe Getty on how did he
get to be already? Wednesday? Up the freaking gamble October
twenty three. You are twenty twenty five. We are armstrong
(11:53):
in getting we approve of this program. Let's begin then, officially,
according to FCC rules and regulations, here we go calling
out the dumb idea at Mark.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Obviously, it is.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
A system designed to make huge profits for the insurance
companies and the drug companies right period.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
That is Bernie Sanders being one hundred percent correct. He's
talking about Obamacare and how it has been a windfall
to insurance companies but has done nothing to make affordable
care affordable. Remember it's called the Affordable Care Act, and
it's just completely broken down. Yeah, a lot of attention
has been paid to Even the Washington Post last week
(12:32):
said the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare, which was never affordable.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Even they said that in the Washington Post.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
That's interesting, right, We got a lot on a lot
of different news fronts to get too. We got Katie's
headlines coming up, hoping c figure out yo yo yo,
So we finally know what was going on in the
Biden White House. At the end because the White House
Press spokesman KJP has put out a new book and
(12:59):
she is revealing all. We will have that for you
coming up in a little bit. Has she broken her silence? Oh,
she broke her silence? Ugh, boy, tell him truth speaking
truth to power or something. All right, it's being a
powerful woman spitting truth. There she is with the headlines today.
Who's reporting what? It's the lead story with Katie Green Katy.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
And this is bad news, Katie.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
A friend of mine was abducted by a troop of mimes.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yeah, they get unspeakable things to him. Hey, that's what
I'm looking for every morning. Oh thank you Jack? Wow,
child you child like sodomy.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
No no, no, you're not supposed to follow up with
a tag. I shouldn't have said that.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Wow what whoa I went? I shouldn't have done that.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
No, no, no, it was good before quick Katie start
yes ENDBC.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
Trump puts Putin talks on hold as Kremlin launches deadly
new attacks on Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Yeah, big attack on Kiev and a bunch of other towns,
and not in any way military installations or anything that.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Just trying to kill civilians.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Yeah, Trump's saying that another summit would be a waste
of time. Yes, correct, Yeah, so some people are seeing
that as he's backing off trying to.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Come into a solution.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Other people, I think I would think, Okay, he's not
once again.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Going to go through that whole rigamarole for no point.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
You guys were just talking about schools. This one from
Katie Grimes at cal Globe failure is a choice. California
students still testing below COVID nineteen pandemic scores in math
and English.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
How does this not get more attention? How does it
always turn into but we need more money for schools?
Speaker 1 (14:42):
That's so mad.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
It's as if teaching the kids isn't even close to
their top priority.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Huh.
Speaker 5 (14:49):
In the same vein from the New York Times, colleges
face a reckoning.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Is a degree really necessary? No?
Speaker 4 (14:57):
No?
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Is it worth a craft?
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Any company that it still makes it mandatory? You have
to degree? God, you gotta stop. Hey, let's see. You
know obviously it's scientists, engineer, doctor or whatever, but just
entry level positions. And you still think a four year
degree means something it does not, And you're encouraging the
whole charade.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
What was it I heard the other day.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
A buddy of mine think he said in the radio industry,
he said his first radio job, it was required to
have a four year degree before they did.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Somebody that's so nuts From the New York Post.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
Whiz is like Tinder for kids, as teens are using
the app to hook up with each other.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
And adult predators. Whiz how spelled how.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
W izz, and they're selling it like as a way
for kids to meet friends.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Come on, oh, the children's tender Okay?
Speaker 5 (15:50):
From USA today, millennials might be raising velcro kids.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Okay, so the helicopter parents and their velcrow kids and
their lawnmower grandparents.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
What is that bellcro kid?
Speaker 5 (16:03):
A belcro kid is a kid that like cannot go
without physical touch and has to be with their parents
at all times.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
This one from study fines men peak at sixteen women
at nineteen gender shapes when music hits us the hardest,
when we enjoy music the most, and when it really
starts to affect us when you hear it and start
taking in the message.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Men sixteen women nineteen is that we say, Okay, that
sounds about rights for us. That's funny unless so many
of my favorite albums are from roughly when I was sixteen,
when music really started to impacting me, I guess.
Speaker 5 (16:43):
And finally from the Babylon b White House, construction crew
finds one, three D and fifty seven more cocaine stashes.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Ah oh, speaking of music, can we stop with the
boomer hero biopics?
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Please? No kidding?
Speaker 2 (17:02):
I have Bruce one coming out with your guy from
the Bear is a zero interesting seeing that for some
reason I've been on a Springsteen kick. I do not
want to see that movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
we get it. KJP breaks her silence about what it
was like on the Biden White House.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
You're gonna be shocked. Armstrong and Getty, how are you doing?
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Before we get into the main dish this segment, I
had one more thing to say about Bruce Springsteen. All right,
and you must keep in mind that I have been
well since I was a teenager talking about when you
peak your interest in music, A huge fan of his songwriting,
and I stand by that. I think he's a wonderful
songwriter and lyricist, musical songwriter and lyricist. He's also an
(17:49):
insufferable prick in a bit of a phony. But but
I don't need to love the artist, to love the art.
I think that's a good practice. But so I was
getting sucked into the YouTube vortex after I watched my
newses the other night, and generally I relaxed by watching
music stuff, and I was watching a Bruce show from
(18:13):
nineteen seventy five in uh was it.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
In New York?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I can't remember, but it was absolutely fantastic. As you've
said many times, don't watch or don't listen to what
they do when they're a legend, check out what made
them a legend. And this was just a crazy show.
But I completely figured him out watching that show. Here
is Bruce Springsteen for a particularly in his heyday.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
I'm a vagabond artist with a floppy head on off
the streets. But wait, I'm a master showman, an entertainer,
and I can barely croak out these songs because.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
They affect me so much.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
But wait, my band is incredibly well rehearsed and I
am clearly their leader.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
So enjoy the show, folks.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
He's so funny, so well crafted as an entertainer, but
part of his act is I'm not an entertainer.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
I'm a vagabond.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Poet from the street, working class. I'm just I can
barely sing up here. I'm so tired from being in
the factory all day. In his memoir, which I've been
listening to, he actually mentions how he was a whoosy,
poetic artistic kid who got picked on a lot, because
that's just who he is. It's not the tough working class,
(19:33):
leather jacket, cool car guy he was. He got everything
he wanted from his grandma and was a whoosy little
poet kid, right right, which is fine, which is absolutely fine.
He then he crafted an image. Yeah, all right, So,
speaking of public figures, Initially I kind of wanted to
pass on this KJP making the book tour for her
(19:55):
hotly awaited by No. One book about her days in
the White House. But she is indeed doing interviews and
it's not going terribly well.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Who buys these freaking things?
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Why do publishing companies still give out so much money
to these books that whoever reads any of them?
Speaker 1 (20:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
It's kind to have something to do with you put
them in the bookstore at the at the airport and
it'll bring more people in and you'll sell them.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
We'll gum or something. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Is it just sales inside the Beltway, I don't know.
But she was talking to Stephen Colbert the other night.
We've got some clips of that. Let's just start with
one hundred and see how it goes.
Speaker 7 (20:32):
Michael, I saw a guy who I had not seen
backstage at the benefit that I did. It seemed like
a dramatically different person, and at eighty one years old,
that's not entirely unexpected.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
You can imagine why people got so worried.
Speaker 6 (20:46):
So a couple of things. I got to see Joe
Biden almost every day. And this is a question that
I take very seriously. I never no one has ever
said he has an age. No one ever said that
he would make jokes about it. He would acknowledge it,
and he would say, yes, I know, I don't speak
this as well as I used to. I don't walk
as well as I used to. No one is saying
(21:07):
that he didn't age. I'm talking about, was he did
he have the questions that I was getting, the mental acuity?
Was he able to govern? And the man that I
saw nearly every day, he was someone who was engaging,
understood policy, and was always putting the American people first.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
And it showed clearly we love you too.
Speaker 6 (21:31):
Able to get done.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
What are you people clapping about? Right right? Boy?
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Nobody buys that Colbert follows up right here, go ahead.
Did Colbert just admit that he saw the doddering, yes,
dementia ridden Biden behind the scenes and kept his mouth
shut about it? Right right, I'll go ahead, play the
next slip, and I've got a point to make.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I remember I saw going.
Speaker 7 (21:54):
To questioned his heart or his policies. It takes more
than that to be the president of United States. And
in a moment of great pressure on stage, we saw
someone shock us and worry us, and no, nothing could
assuage that worry. So I don't think it was necessarily
a betrayal of Joe Biden, as other people saying, we
(22:15):
don't think we were shown Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
That you saw.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
That's so wild that there's the don't I don't even
understand what's going on there. So she's claiming Biden was
betrayed by the Democrats. Well, I don't even get the
Stephen Colbert angle. So now he's like Jake Tapper. I
knew he was mentally, you know, challenge and shouldn't be president.
But why why didn't you come out and tell everybody
(22:43):
so I could say it?
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Why didn't you give me permission to say that? Which
was plainly true.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
And everybody knew. Yeah, it's so weird. One more clip
one O two, Michael.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
I saw every day a really ugly assault on some
one who had fifty plus years of experience and who
again objectively, had done a good job as president of
the United States. And it was heartbreaking to see that
type of behavior.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Wow, what quickly assault? Are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (23:17):
The media entirely covering up what was right before everybody's eyes.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Right?
Speaker 2 (23:22):
And then if on my closing argument and I'm sure
the jury will be persuaded by this, then in other
clips we've heard, she's made multiple excuses for why Joe
Biden was utterly incoherent in the debate, including, well, he'd
traveled some Well, you don't get to be president. Then
he was nervous about his son's trial. Well, then you
(23:45):
don't have this stuff to be president. What was he Oh,
he'd had a cold the previous week or something. No,
if you're that week, you are not fit to be president. KJP.
How do you not grock that? How do you not
comprehend that, right, because China could invade Taiwan when you've
got a cold, or you just got back from France,
(24:06):
or your son got in trouble with the law.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
All those things can happen. You'd still have to make
a decision.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Yeah, our shortstop made three errs because he'd had to
run to first base the previous inning.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Well, then he's not fit to be a professional ball player.
That didn't know.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
You can't say that, KJP, you little twit wow with
an eye, Yes, clearly, Wow.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Just sad.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
Even the Stephen Colberts of the world are like, dude, come.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
On about the crowd backing up her. Yeah, you don't
let him try to tear down Joe Biden. We love you,
Joe institutions, I hear you. Wow, Wow, just amazing. All right,
what else can we avoid ever doing that again? I
(24:56):
wonder if we can. I don't know if we can.
What's that specifically?
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Uh, you know, maybe it fits in with the whole
the cell phones in classrooms saying we were talking about earlier,
just ignoring what's obviously true before our eyes for political
reasons or convenience reasons or whatever. I don't know, right, right. Oh,
here's Joe Getty's stat of the day. I grabbed this
I was hoping I would remember, and here I have
to my surprise.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Picture.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
What excuse me, dang koffmin picture what the world's going
to look like in fifty years? Politically speaking? You know,
I have no idea. I don't have any idea what
it's going to be in five years. No idea. Yeah, yeah,
no kidding. Here's your stat of the day. Nigeria this
year will have more births than all of Europe combined.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Wow, one country in Africa.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I don't have the slightest idea how big Nigeria is,
but doesn't really make any difference.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
It's still amazing. It's a very big country.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Here.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
There are your fertility rates in Europe, keeping in mind
that two point two is generally considered replacement rate two
point two children per mother because the dudes aren't having
any babies in spite of what the Left would tell you,
so you gotta have a mommy and a daddy out
of a mommy to keep the thing going. In point
(26:20):
two has to do with infant mortality and just bubblem
Monaco is the champion of Europe. It's tiny little country
at two point one. They're not moost replacement, so the
leader is below replacement rate. That's not good. Then you
got Montenegro one point eight down the line. I'll just
pick some of the big eiaes if you include Russia's
(26:43):
at one point five, Germany's at one point five. Russia
and they're killing off their young men like crazy for
no good reason. Wow, Poland one point three, Spain one
point two, Malta one point one, Ukraine one point zero.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Oof.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Well that's just kind of a special case, but wow,
but those countries are half of replacement, right Yeah. Well
then so then the we're allowing too much illegal immigration
and it's going to change our culture thing. At that point,
that arguments kind of moot in that there ain't going
to be any Polish people left, so unless you want
(27:23):
it to be empty, you might as well let people
from another country come in and have their run of
the country with their food and songs and government, because
you ain't got no people. Specifically, Nigeria has about seven
million live births per year.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Europe as a whole.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
Which is in the forties depending on your definition of
what's a Europe, but has about four and a half
maximum million verse per year. Nigeria wins by seven seven
million to four and a half million. Wow, the world
will look so much different in several decades because of that.
(28:02):
Regardless of what happens politically or anything, it doesn't make
any difference. So we've be major, major changes just because
of those demographics. One final note, and I hate to
interrupt the fun that we've had, but there is a
actual genocide going on right now by Nigeria's Muslims against
Nigeria's Christians, actually being rounded up and slaughtered for their
(28:25):
religion in the fastest growing country on Earth. Perhaps well yeah, yeah, sorry,
I apologize. I was heavy and the Western civilization that
had conquered that sort of division to where you slaughtered
each other over your religion or race or whatever.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Enlightenment.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
We became enlightened decided to stop having kids and we'll
go away. Yes, yeah, we got dark ages coming. Good
luck everybody. I'll be dead, so don't matter me. I'll
be long dead. I probably got told this weekend, so
we got We've got mail bag on the way and
a whole bunch of other stuff.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Stay here.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
I have no interest in the shutdown, but this whole
argument around Obamacare or the Affordable Care Act and whether
or not we're just gonna decide to go full socialized
medicine is a pretty big story.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
One hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Yeah, and healthcare, my goodness, is there anybody assembled here
today who isn't constantly shocked at the cost of insurance
and then co pays and drugs and then the start
of every year how long it takes to hit your
deductible and the mystery charges.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Want to talk about that later on.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Yeah, anyway, so we'll talk about that at some point
coming up also next hour, follow up on our hour
almost yesterday about the great feminization. That discussion will share
a lot of you good folks emails to us which
are very very interesting and full of real life examples
(29:58):
and thoughts, so please do stay too. And here is
your freedom loving quote of the day, sent along by
alert listener Aaron, who's really been enjoying Frederick Frederick Bastiat's
The Law, great philosopher, writer, etc.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
If you don't know it, it's worth a read. Here's
your quote.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
When a portion of wealth passes from the person who
has earned it, without his consent and without compensation, to
one who has not created it. Whether this is by
force or fraud. I say that property is undermined and
that there is plunder.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Well, that happens a lot.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
So if mom Donny's plan goes through in New York,
if you made a million dollars, you would keep four
hundred and fifty thousand of it. Yeah, well, the law
street would go to one different or another different kind
of government. The Journal editorial board was taking a look
at some of his plans and how utterly impossible they
(30:57):
are financially, including a lot of them depend on the
state raising income tax significantly. And the governor who's running
for election now is a jackass, Kathy Oakle.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
But she's saying no.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
No, I'm not going to do that as I try
to run for reelection. It is completely hollow promises. Anyway,
mailbag drops note mailbag at Armstrong Yeddy dot com. So
again the great feminization stuff. Next hour. Here's some other affair.
Here's your mem of the day, sent by deb How
do we expect a group of people who don't know
the difference between a man and a woman to know
(31:31):
the difference between a king and a president.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Ah, that's a bit of a shot. And he's got
a penis. Now it doesn't work for that one. Yeah,
it's no, not with the no moving along. Let's see.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Joseph writes, Hey, guys, what's the update on Jack's Ukrainian girlfriend?
I know she dropped off and she must have found
an ghost. She must have found another. Oh no, I
wasn't getting back to her fast enough. Remember she said,
our love can't continue if I don't start answering her
questions and emailing her.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
God, your love died of neglect. Yep, yep. I didn't
water the love and it died. You put your career first,
didn't you.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Huh, let's see how about casey?
Speaker 5 (32:13):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Actually, as long as we're getting personal, somebody wrote and
asked Katie how you're feeling in these early days of
your pregnancy.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
It's it comes in waves, yes, yeah, tired, hungry, and
in pain in certain times.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Oh you got I'm eating I'm eating everything. There you go.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Yeah, that's that's fun. Any morning sickness or anything. They
were asking. Yeah, this is none of our business unless
you want to. You know, I'll share it.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
Hits in waves every now and then. A couple times
during the show, I've had to take off, but we're good.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Some women love being pregnant, and those women should probably
keep their mouths shut because other women hate hearing that.
That's been my experience. It can it well, it's there
are times that it's a bit of a rough road.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
But it's the people that go, oh, just wait, shut up.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Yeah, yeah, don't do that with this is a tip
to me now that I've had two kids that are
now teenagers. Don't do that with any aspect of anybody
starting out their family. Let them enjoy the whole the
whole thing. Wait till this happens, Wait till that happens. No, no, no,
not cool.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Yeah, people enjoy being the wise and old sage. Yeah
you just went don't again, that's that's not cool.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Anyway.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Moving along on the topic of doctor Fauci and peanuts,
Casey writes the fact that they interviewed Fauci.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
On what network was it? Do you remember CBS yesterday?
Speaker 2 (33:30):
They were talking to him about the peanutalergy and I
saw his face of that, who the hell wants to
see doctor Fauci's face? Well, Casey points out the fact
that they interviewed Fauci about the peanut allergy epidemic created
by bad advice from healthcare professionals is beyond ironic, not
just because of COVID.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
But going back to HIV in the eighties.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
She says, the book, or it could be case Casey
with a K is probably a woman right. The book
I first read about the peanut allergy epidemic was Blind
Spots by Marty McCarry after hearing him on your show.
So highlighted in that book is the HIV epidemic and
how it spread through the blood supply because there are
paying people for blood donations at the time. Fauci was
the head of the National Health Institute at the time
(34:10):
and strongly denied that it was spreading it all through
blood donations and the chances were one in a million
when they were much much higher.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
He later admitted that it was a problem.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Fauci's probably working on gain of function research to develop
a peanut that will kill us.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
All you know's his whole career is.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
I am so wise, I know it is best, and
if I have to pull the wool over the eyes
of the simpletons, I will do so. For I have
decided if I have to tell a noble lie because
people aren't smart enough to handle the truth, I will
do it right. He ought to get together with James
Comy and just open up a consultancy for Hubris. California

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
