We Can't Avoid Fires but We Can Avoid Catastrophes

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Joy Reids say it. Yes, a lot could have been done,
the failure by Newsom and Bass and so many more,
But those are the two figureheads that where the bucks
are supposed to stop. It was a mobilization of firefighters
before it even began that actually led to the catastrophe
that could have been avoided. Can we avoid fires in California? No,

(00:23):
We've known that for a long time. But we can
avoid these catastrophes. How do you avoid a fire getting
out of control? I think the first thing that the
first grade class would all raise their hand and say
it would be water water failure to mobilize, And even
if you did mobilize, you wouldn't have had the water. Ooh,

(00:45):
clear warning for the National Other Service days before. I'm
going to keep reminding this clear warning. Can you imagine
there being a hurricane warning like this? Hey, hurricanes on
the way and they employees home. They don't mobilize, they
don't send buses around to pick people up. I'll play

(01:07):
the audio again from Bill Mahery goes, Hey, if you're
gonna be all over George Bush for Katrina, have some
intellectual honesty. Yes, we do need to talk about this.
What about the fact now, is it fact? Well, there's
a lot that that's on the internet right now that
you cannot believe. And there's a lot of stuff on

(01:29):
government state California websites that you can't believe, but I'll believe.
Just some dude happened to be an attorney in the
Obama administration, happened to live right where the Palisades fire started,
happened to have a balcony in a cell phone with
a video camera on it and filmed it with a
time stamp that's actually on it. And listen to what
the news in Los Angeles is talking about. Really, it

(01:52):
took forty five minutes with the National Weather Service sending
it out already about the unpredictable wins. I'm at eighty
to one hundred miles an hour. Is that shit? Yesterday
on the show? It would be more beneficial for those
individuals that can afford those homes to afford some super
duper water hose system that they can all hook together
to go knock them down when they see smoke out there.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Michael Valentine, he's a former US attorney for eight years
under Kamala Harris. He and his wife, they live at
the top of Pacific Palisades, right next to this ridgeline
where the.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
Fire broke out.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
He says, his wife called at ten twenty nine am
Tuesday morning. That's when they first sawt and they didn't
see anybody come for at least about a half an
hour forty five minutes before they drop some water.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Well, I hope you hear one day court in session,
go ahead, prosecution. Well here we have hit the tribunal.
Let me give you video proof here for the tribunal
of the people of California versus the State of California.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
He documented it all on video, giving News Nation an
exclusive look of where it started and how quickly it grew.
By ten point fifty the plume had spread considerably twice
as large.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Eight minutes later, the size.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Of the fire seems to have doubled, yet again, still
nobody fighting the fire. At eleven thirteen am, nearly forty
five minutes after Michael's wife called in the fire.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
You see a chopper come through.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
At eleven twenty three, a helicopter comes in begins to
dump water on it. But at this point the fire
is massive and moving quickly down this ridge line.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah, there's evidence of complete failure. That's complete failure. If
there was a fire back here in this field back
behind the station off Blackstone over here that gets grown
up when it gets all dry, and it took forty
five minutes, I would be appalled. This. This is a

(03:52):
lot of this as I think we're fortunate that it's
taken this long for something of this magnitude to actually
actually happened. Can you imagine if the New Orleans newspaper,
that's the paper on record, the big paper in New Orleans,
had found out that right before the hurricane that the
mayor and the fire officials of New Orleans chose to

(04:15):
not order any firefighters to remain on duty for a
second shift when the hurricane was hitting devastating people. Can
you imagine that? Well, that's documents attained by the LA
Times said fire officials chose not to order the firefighters
to remain on duty for a second shift last Tuesday
as the winds were building. That would have doubled the

(04:35):
personnel on hand. It would have staffed five of more
than forty engines that are available to battle wildfires. Again,
according to records attained by the LA Times, they only
dispatched additional firefighters and fire trucks when it was too
late and the fires were already burning out of control.
Need a tribunal their election of duty, and when it

(05:00):
comes to life and death, we got to hold them
a whole lot more accountable to somebody at the counter.
And American Airlines that messed up a flight schedule. Officials
said they move more engines first thing in the morning
after it had been burning all night to cover northeast LA. Huh.

(05:24):
Former LA Battalion Chief Rick Crawford in this La Times article,
And just like with COVID, we go to the experts.
Experts always disagreed, right of course, all the media would
tell you the mainstream quote mainstream, and then the ones
that got banned. I would tell you about those experts.
Here's a former LA Fire Department battalion chief. That's somebody

(05:48):
that knows about it. And I'm going to quote Rick Crawford.
The plan you're using now for the fire, you should
have used before the fire. He said he would have
issued a limited recall for outgoing firefighters, keeping one thousand
on duty. It's a known staffing tactic, a deployment model. Well,

(06:08):
even if they'd all been hands on deck, there was
no water in the fire hydrants in many many places,
the reservoir dry. And I just found out today that
it had been empty since February of last year. Close
for maintenance. LA Time said it's closed for maintenance. There

(06:32):
was no construction material in sight. Don't worry about it.
We're not gonna have a fire stop at well. We
got the Pride parade float. We need to put some
money into that. Approximately one hundred firefighter vehicles were sitting
in a repair lot for quite some time, The La

(06:53):
Times said. The Daily Mail actually took photos of the
lot showed all the red vehicles part next to each
other out there. The La fi Archie said, we have
over one hundred fire apparatus out of service out there,
gathering dust and weeds, just like our Fresno EV buses
out in the field. There were fire engines, ambulances, ladder

(07:17):
trucks at this site. Recall, recall, recall.

Speaker 4 (07:23):
I'm with the people who want to hold politicians accountable.
You know this, we shouldn't talk about it now. It's
so funny to hear that coming out of the MAASA.
Liberals is absolutely the time to talk about it. And
this is what my editorial is about Friday Night on
the show. The winds were ridiculous. I get all that,
and they also made a lot of errors.

Speaker 5 (07:44):
And if you held wasn't accountable for Katrina, well then
you have to have some intellectual honesty and criticize your
team when they don't do it right.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Oh, they're getting the criticism. Freddie Escobar, the president the
United Firefighters of La County, said the fire was the
latest example of the city being neglected by its leaders.
Way to go, Freddy Escobar. I'll quote Freddie. I've been
on the board of the fire department seventeen years now.
For decades, La Fire has been neglected by its leaders.

(08:17):
They have not addressed an undersaffed fire department. We need
sixty two new stations, one hundred more firefighters at medics,
more engines, trucks. We are woefully understaffed. It was sad
to hear that three of the firefighters lost their own
homes fighting it in the eating fire. So if I'm
picking up what they're throwing down these days, we didn't

(08:41):
have firefighters pre deployed to handle any of the fire
because of the extreme wins that were forecasts. LA Fire
Chief Rowley said they'd made an operating funds decision not
to pre deploy. Oh, didn't have enough money. Operating funds
decision to not predeploy didn't have enough money. I don't know, hey, Joe,

(09:04):
should we have maybe saved some of that Ukraine money
to have firefighters and second largest city in America? Hey,
La City council mayor and all the Democrat voters that
put them in a place in power. Should we maybe
taking some of that one point three billion dollars of
the people with syringes hanging out their cracks underneath the
one ten freeway overpass down there to maybe make sure

(09:26):
we have enough firefighters so that we have overpasses intact
for homeless people to hang out under our infrastructure. Speaking
of the homeless, Freddy there Escobar, La firefighters get tens
of thousand calls every year to deal with the homeless.
He said, it's about one hundred a day. We cannot

(09:46):
sustain what's going on with the calls on the homeless
with a staffing that we have today on a shoestring budget.
So they came in Ford to go out to the
people that are getting more money than they are. Guys.
That's called way Way, Way Way way way upside down.
We need to flip this state right side up.

Speaker 4 (10:06):
And they've had a lot of a long time to
get this writer, and they always seem to be the
worst they ever possibly could be.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
So no, I think we should demand better now. As
far as the red tape, I see that they're all
knowsome bass.

Speaker 4 (10:20):
They're all saying we're gonna cut red tape, as if
they're doing us a favor.

Speaker 5 (10:24):
My question is, well, if you can do it now,
why don't you always do it? Obviously it can be done.
It's not a favor to us to cut the red tape.
Why do we live in the state in this red
tape nightmare? The other times of the year when we're
not on.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
Fire, Come on, come on, Bill, help is on the way.
Thank you, Gavin, Thank you now, Bill much calmer now
living in this state, knowing that you're the helper, you're
the guy. Now, you got actually people that are defending
their own property, actually standing up against some of these

(11:03):
looters and some of these arsonists. Listen to David Spade
what he's willing comedian here.

Speaker 6 (11:09):
They just caught somebody. We're pretty sure he's lighting fires
walking on the blowtorch.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
They let them go.

Speaker 6 (11:15):
So if you can find someone lighting a fire, and
you catch somebody and you can get the cops to
bust him and throw them in jail, give you five
thousand bucks. So keep your eyes peeled and do what
you can out there. Don't fake it though, No staging.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
No staging. Let me know he's an actor. He knows
about faking it. Listen to what I caught on the
LA news there that there's people that are in the
evacuation zone that have not left and they don't want
to leave because they're defending their home. It's like blocks

(11:51):
that haven't burned down, but they're in the evacuation zone
and people got to bring them like supplies up to
the blockade where the SAP and the police that won't
let people in. It's a really blocked down and I
wish we could do that with our own border. That
amazing how we can keep people out of neighborhoods, but
we can't keep them out of our country. Come on, man,

(12:12):
come on.

Speaker 7 (12:13):
Officials say dozens of residents have chosen to ignore official
orders to evacuate and are taking the necessary actions to
protect their property into their own hands. We spoke to
one homeowner who says they are staying behind to protect
their homes from any looters, but also from any flare ups.
She said, a bunch of the dads have actually been
going around the neighborhood in the past few days. Sorry,

(12:34):
so dry out here at the past few days, and
they are stomping out some flames that flare up.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
Ah, did you hear that all the moms going around
stopping out the flames that are going out? Now, it
was all the dads. The men were out. Imagine that, huh,
not that a woman can't stop out a flame. But
I found that interesting. In today's environment and we're in
desperate time, it calls for desperate measures. It calls for wisdom.

(13:02):
I think we need to go to.

Speaker 8 (13:03):
Kamala Kamala Harris.

Speaker 9 (13:05):
So it's critically important that to the extent you can
find anything that gives you an ability to be patient
in this extremely dangerous and unprecedented crisis, that you do
be patient.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Be patient. The problem is the lack of preparation because
this state has faced fire ever since it became a state.
It's government's basic functions. That's what we're calling out. But
it's not Newsom's problem. It's the locals because but hey,
Newsome is there. He's being kind enough to help out
where he can. You know that this is the Trebor

(13:46):
Jary Show on the Valley's Power Talk Artificial intelligence. My
take on it is is that it's just been elevated
to a new level. Because you know, when you pay
for something over the phone, you need to talk to
a computer that's speaking English to you or Spanish if
you hit two. We've had this technology here on for

(14:08):
a while, but now it's a brand new level. We're
going to talk to non Ma, that's his name, non Ma,
and we're gonna talk Ai, and I'm going to get
him to explain it about to say, like to fifth graders,
but they're probably smarter than I am about it. I'll
say you to kindergarten class, Yeah, give us a basic
explanation of what in the world is going on. You

(14:31):
don't even need to have to sweat it out for
a few nights. Write in a book report. In my opinion,
don't you just go Ai, write me a book report
about Davy Crockett. Boom boom boo boo boo boo doo,
go back, retype it, make some mistakes and turn it in.
Gott to be key to make some mistakes. That's the
new way to cheat, making mistakes, not getting the answer right,

(14:52):
No new way to cheat. I need to make that
down making mistakes. I'll ask him about that, because we're
going to talk about t and parents and students and
the problem that it's out there. So mister non Ma,
I had a brief little phone conversation with him. Sounds
like an interesting guy, so looking forward to interviewing him next.
They've up in Sacramento. They've gotten rid of the plan

(15:14):
to try and slush it all together for Trump proofing
California and going ahead and helping out some people that
I don't know might need a roof over their head,
just want to be nice if they could do it right,
you know, the right way to begin with. I need
to pause for a moment because it is with a

(15:37):
heavy heart that I bring you this news. Millions of
dollars worth of Hunter Biden's artwork were destroyed in the
Palisades fire. I'll give you a minute to come to
grips to that. Those of you that are in the
local art world wait Saturday for you. I know, I

(16:00):
know though many that will take it might not ever recover.
I know many feel that way, but it will. Those
of you in the art world, it will. Now, I'm
not making fun of somebody losing something. I'm making fun
that he calls that art. He did loses. Well. The
home that his artwork was in was his Hollywood attorney,

(16:22):
and they said the nearly two hundred pieces of artwork
by Hunter were destroyed. And I'm not laughing at somebody's
home being destroyed. I am laughing at the fact they
said that the artwork was valued at millions of dollars.
I'll hoot and holler all day about that one. I'll
knee slap about that one until the cows come home.

(16:44):
They said, some of his artwork is the price each individual,
like one piece would be like half a million dollars,
half a million for a crackhead's painting. In the real world.
You know what we call that. We call that money laundering.

Speaker 10 (16:58):
This is the Tremor Show on the Valleys Power Talk.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Well, I got a CEO. You should know, cea CEO
of New Marade like to welcome to the show, non ma, non,
thank you man. Welcome Your educational technology company, Numerad is
going to answer some questions from me today.

Speaker 10 (17:18):
Right, definitely, that's so much Trevor.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
Hey.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
In the nineteen twenties, I was thinking radio. You know,
people thought it was voodoo or magic. And the World's
Fair in thirty nine they had the TV out there
and as that group, people thought, how does this happen?

Speaker 10 (17:32):
Well?

Speaker 1 (17:32):
With new technology? So many people don't understand it. I
still don't understand how my radio voice goes out there.
It magically invisible in the air. But AI it's not voodoo,
is it?

Speaker 10 (17:45):
You know, it's not. But it is very complex. But
at the end of the day, AI and what we
see today, it's it's kind of like a brain, like
a big brain that lives inside a computer. And this
big brain can be taught and it can learn many,
many different things and through that process it can be
very helpful. But the reality is that AI is not

(18:06):
the end aw and be all. It's not going to
replace humans.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Well people will go yet right now. I hope it doesn't, Hey,
I hope it will always be a human influence to this.
Is it really? And let me ask you if this
is a too simple way to think about We've always
kind of had artificial intelligence for the last few decades
or whatever. Like when I call and pay my bills online,
there's a recorded voice that talks back to me and

(18:30):
says thank you, and we have you know, spell check
and automatic fill in. It'll predict what we're gonna say next.
Is this just the next level of that kind of intelligence?

Speaker 10 (18:40):
Yes, yes, indeed. I mean if you think about even
ten fifteen years ago, the AI then was all about
personalization in terms of say the savings up your new
speed on Facebook. Everything there is AI driven where the
system learns about you in terms of who your friends are,
what you like, and it's going to show you content
that is very reletive to you. Today the investment is

(19:02):
what's called generative AI. So based on all these learnings,
the AI can then create text, images or even video,
it sounds that is relevant to you that will resonate
with you. So this is the biggest advancement today with
with AI.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
Amazing. Here our program director, Agent Squire, showed me on
his phone how AI can make pictures and logos. I
mean he did show me Superman Clark Ken on top
of a building with Spider Man and Bam there it was.
And I was like no way, I said, type in
Trevor Carey Show, and it came out with a cool
logo with a microphone that looked like a wineglass with

(19:39):
the letter T imposed in the middle of it, like
in three seconds. It's fascinating.

Speaker 10 (19:45):
Yes, indeed, it's the that's myth is. It's happening at
an exponential rate right now, and I would say it's
we have to be very careful with the use of it.
But when it comes to creative arts, there is a
lot of definitely good use cases there. We're very excited
about that. But then also the use cases of how
this can be applied to say education, so happing to

(20:07):
get into there as well.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Yeah, now let's talk about the artshortment before we get
into education and kids and homework and parents and all
that kind of stuff. But well, do it be need
for like proofreaders or editors or authors or do they
just insert their finished book into AI and it comes
out all correct.

Speaker 10 (20:24):
You know, that's a great question. AI can actually help
a lot in just your standard dramatical corrections, but a
lot of the style and tone of what an editor
and a curator brings the table is still something that
is very needed nowadays. If you hear and listen to
a lot of AI. If you should read it, it

(20:44):
does sound very very much similar, and so there still
needs to be this human create a curation involved and
a lot of these output of artistic works.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
You know. It's almost like when I listen to analog
music as opposed to digital the recording digital sounds a
little more piercing. Analog to me sounds warmer. So if
you get that human element into the editing process, it
could bring warmth, whereas AI might not one hundred percent.

Speaker 10 (21:11):
That's that's so correct. You know, we are emotional beings,
you know, as we evolved into this world and we
you know, we we connect with these emotional connections and
that's that's what resonates in terms of definitely artistry, but
also forming deep connections with really anything, and that's something
that AI cannot do right now.

Speaker 1 (21:30):
But you know, humans, you know, we'll take this and
make something horrible of it. I think a lot of
people are afraid of it, and I think there's some
reasons why they might be. But non basically I said,
act like you're talking to fifth graders, but they probably
know more about it than I do. Take some kindergarteners
explain what AI in a real simplified form for those
that they think, we think we know what it is,

(21:50):
but give me your version of what it is.

Speaker 10 (21:53):
Yeah, AI is really just as simple as simple as
as a as a brain, a big brain that lives
inside a computer. That's essentially what it is. And it
can learn a lot of different things. Now, it can
learn from the text in which you feed it, what
you say to it, what images you show it, and
based on that, through literally map, it can actually then

(22:15):
spit out content and information in a way that's that's
very attuned to what you want. So in essence, that's
that's what it is. And it's a simplest, simplest form.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
Now, who maybe I'm doing a pop quiz on the
air and you don't know, and I don't know if
Inby knows. But who maintains it? Who sets the parameters
of it? Is there border directors, an organization that set
Does there have to be parameters set? Correct?

Speaker 10 (22:41):
Yeah? Yeah, I know there there are government policies that
are being built now. But what we're seeing now is
that there there are parameters, but a lot of this
is also market defined, meaning that there are these benchmarks
that AI companies used to measure, say accuracy or if

(23:01):
it's in the creative arts, how it image actually, how
how realistic it looks. So these benchmarks are forever kind
of evolving right now, but the reality is there there
isn't really any governing body just yet. I know we're
moving into a world where that will likely be the case,
but right now it is literally the wild West. And

(23:21):
really companies through capitalistic markets are forming these benchmarks, but
they are really pushing the envelope in terms of what
this technology can do.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
He's a CEO that you should know, Non Mas his name.
He's educational technology company called Numerate. Non Let me go
back to Trevor Carey in seventh grade and how I
would see myself possibly using AI if they said you
got to you got to write you know something in
history on politics, and I think, all right, I'll go

(23:51):
back and write about Richard Nixon and Watergate. It wouldn't
take me two or three nights. I wouldn't have to
do research. I could just type it in, then look
at it, go back and make some mistakes and turn
it in correct. That easy.

Speaker 10 (24:05):
It is that easy. But I would say that the
educators community and teacher community. They're well here of this
dynamic where students are going into these AI platforms and
literally having the AI write the essays for them. So
there are AI detection tools that they're using to spot Okay,
is this actually AI or not? But when it comes

(24:26):
to writing an essay, AI is actually great in terms
of helping the student structure an essay with the outline.
As you mentioned that the research is actually a big
piece of it. AI has the ability to easily research
anything that you want and it will give you the references
as well, So that's something to keep in mind.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Wow, So teachers are kind of like TSA these days.
They have to scan some of these the homework and
the reports.

Speaker 10 (24:52):
Yeah yeah, yeah, you know, being a teacher now, it's
a tough profession. There's a lot of burnout. Forty plus
percent of teachers are burnt out because of a lot
of the work with the teaching profession. But AI actually
does bring about a lot of help to teachers to
help grade material to actually but also help teachers personalize

(25:16):
experiences and educational experiences back to students. So we see
a big opportunity there to actually help teachers in their
profession in a day to day spaces.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
Well, you used to kind of search out the smart
kid to see if they can help you with your homework.
Now you just AI have found it not so smart
kid and tell them to rewrite it. This is a
brand new world living in I have not heard of
the teachers having a scan like that. I guess that
would do. You know what kind of equipment is required
for something of that nature to I guess it would
be AI powered to be able to have that kind

(25:47):
of think ability to detect. Hey, this is plagiarism.

Speaker 10 (25:53):
Yeah, it's all one would need is access to internet
and that basically there are sites out there that allow
teachers to upload them. It's a student's essay and then
they ain't automatically detective. It's AI written or not. Now
keep in mind these these models of AI detection, they
are not one accurate, so it's constantly evolving as well,

(26:14):
which which gives everyone a headache. Everyone involved.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
Well none, I've seen chat GPT online. I know, iHeart,
we have our own right now, this isn't even really
me talking to you. I did this at noon. I'm
at a burger joint right now. This is Iheart's AI
doing this interview. But where can people go to first
like kind of sample it, try it out, as there's
a place like a parent could go to maybe show

(26:38):
their kid, Hey, here's a good place you can go
to to help with this. And I want to look
at what you're doing because you do well. Like any
kind of education, the parent has to stay on top
of it, and that's really been the problem with so
many of our school districts. But where if they're just
brand new at this and don't have like extra money
to spend, is there like a free place they can
go or something like that.

Speaker 10 (26:58):
Yes, most, most definitely. And I think one of the
main things to keep in mind is that a lot
of the main AI tools that you reference, and also
even with Google right now, they are providing answers to
students in a way where students are actually not really
learning the material. And so we would encourage parents to
check out platforms like ours Numerate that takes a hybrid

(27:22):
approach with AI and humans, meaning that we actually have
a network of sixty thousand educators who create content for us.
So we merge the human elements of teaching with AI
content to produce an output that has actually pedagogical line
that actually helps a student learn versus is giving them
the answer. So I'd say, simply come to numerate dot com.

(27:45):
We have free AI tools such as our ACEAI tutor
that provides a tutoring experience back to students in a
way that actually helps them learn through not only text,
but video, audio and images.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
You know, that was not a set up softball question.
I was not aware Numerate had there on outlet like
this for AI. So Non, that's that's good to know
that's in you am E R A D E numrad
dot com. And uh, it was interesting Non that I
don't know. It's like a week ago or whatever. I
was prepping at home and I was in the kitchen

(28:20):
and I was walking back in to sit down and
start writing again, and I thought, man, I need some
AI explanation. It was just fascinating to me. But I
had so many questions, and I'm not kidding you. I
went to look at my email on my phone and
you're publicist Brodie. There you were like bam, there it
was staring right at me. So I appreciate you coming
on and explaining here is there now is your Numerate

(28:43):
dot com is that just for educational purposes.

Speaker 10 (28:47):
Yeah, it's it is just education, it's and it's primarily
for STEM education. And you know, we're one hundred percent
focused on STEM education because if you look at the
STEM academic achievement scorers today, even with the rise of
all these chatbots over the past two or three years,
we're at a forty percent low in terms of math
and science achievement scores. And so we believe that this

(29:11):
world needs this technology, but also one that actually incorporates
humans into the mix. And for us, that's ensuring that
human educators, professional educators are in the mix here.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
Well, you strike me as kind of a guard rail
person on this, and we do need a lot of guardrails.
But vek Ramaswami was talking about the dumbing down of
America and it offended a lot of people. And the
more I let it, I kind of was offended at
the start, but the more I let it sink in,
I'm like, he's right, he is right. We've had a
dumbing down in America. And my fear is this is

(29:44):
just a super information highway to go faster to the
dumbing down.

Speaker 10 (29:50):
It is. You're seeing this nowadays an antidote adotically. You
know a lot of the young kids that we chat with,
and what we're seeing is that this element of critical
sinking is being lost because students today they are just
taking what they need from the internet and not really
critically learning the material. And so, you know, parents need

(30:11):
to be very active here. I know it's very hard,
especially with working parents, but it's something that we must do.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
You know, I want to give the example non here
and closing, thank you for your time. But back in
the mid eighties here, I was taking a high school
of typing class. And first of all, why am I
ever going to need typing? I'm going to be a
baseball player, come on, guys. But anyhow, I was on
one of the typewriters that had all the keys were
numbered and lettered up. They were only like two or

(30:37):
three in the whole room. The rest of them were blank,
so that you would learn how to type correctly. But boy,
I was way ahead. It was the kind of thing
you put on headphones and turn the page. You kind
of did it on your own speed. And so I
was cheating. And now I'm a two finger pecker. I
didn't learn it. I cheated. So I hate to see
that happen to the young minds of today in such

(30:58):
a bigger fashion, because I guarantee you I would have
been one of those that just put it in the
system and then made it look like I wrote it.

Speaker 10 (31:09):
I hear you, I hear your.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
Well, I'm glad there are people that didn't do that,
and they become CEOs of company like non Non thank
you for your time neumraid dot com. He's a CEO.
You should know. Thank you, Nonuh we'll talk okay, to
use you with some future questions maybe, of course any time.
Trevor you bet you, non Mod, thank you, sir.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
And I couldn't believe that logo that on spar soun
just popped up that that that easily I got to
update my phone and uh yeah, I get a little
more up to I don't know, at least like twenty
eighteen or nineteen. Yeah, I'm all, it's okay. I'm not
gadget guy. There's a lot of gadget guy people. My
buddy Pete Manrieks always was gadget guy. He had if

(31:55):
it was out, he had it. I'm sure when he
was a young teen, He's probably like, uh, look at this,
I got the new beta. Yeah, you'll probably have the
new PlayStation that emits odors. I don't seem about that
just doesn't seem right. RFK Junior needs to look into
what they're putting into that, into that smell. They're right.

(32:17):
Should should women be charging out the foxhole yelling, going
after whoever the enemy is? Bayonets I okay, call me
whatever you want to call me. I do not care.
I don't want to be a citizen of a country
that sends their women to do their fighting. Call me
nineteen fifties guy again, I do not care.

Speaker 8 (32:38):
And then ten weeks ago you appeared on the Sean
Ryan Show and said, I'm straight up just saying we
should not have women in combat roles. Now, I presume
you recall making all these statements, Senator.

Speaker 10 (32:52):
The concerns I have, and the concerns of many have had,
especially in ground combat units, is that.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
In pursuit of certain percentages quotas, standards have been changed.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
Pete Hegseth nominated Secretary of Defense. Going through the confirmation
hear in, some Democrats made a lot of insane remarks
during the hearing, but completely unhinged with their obsession with
sending women into combat is what is this about? Many
of these mostly female leftist senators were outraged, and he
stated that they shouldn't be in the ground combat roles.

(33:24):
He talks about military rightedness. You had Senator Kirsten Jill Wren,
Elizabeth prison Warden all making they were the screechers. Senator
Ernst of Iowa, she is an army veteran. She reafirmed
her belief that women should be afforded the opportunity to
serve in combat roles as long as they meet the
militaries very very high standards, and she said, I'll be

(33:46):
supporting heg sex confirmation, but the very very high standards
she's talking about have been very, very very lowered, and
I think this included men and women. They had to
change the I don't know something in the testing to
how far you could throw a grenade, because not enough
people coming in could throw the grenade far enough. Guys,

(34:11):
the Chinese could throw it, go, pick it up, throw
it back, run back, die, tuck and roll and throw
it again before it went off. The Russians are eating
glass for breakfast and we're painting our bullets rainbow. We
need a secretary defense that makes us a fighting force. Okay,

(34:33):
let's just say that female a over here can out,
you know, out climb those walls basically boys. Maybe she
could be a Navy silver or something. She's really really good.
But what about the dynamic when you're in battle of
male female ratios? I don't I don't even want that
dynamic Like on submarines they come back pregnant. You shouldn't.

(34:57):
All you should be focused about is the defense into
this country, not the girl in the box all next
to you. Sorry, call me, call me Mike Pence, call
me whatever you want to call me. The facts are mean,
it's basic science, and there are roles for women in

(35:18):
the military. You want to you want to fly a
helicopter and shoot missiles and kill people, all right, if
you're good at it, then go get them. But this
is still gonna be a battle. And the thing about it,
all it would take is one more where we get
our butts kicked and people would go, oh, maybe we

(35:42):
do need to send male gladiators out into the call
of sim Now, are again, are there women that have
that physical ability to hang with the guys yes, but
again I'm going to go back to the dynamic that
is not needed. I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't.
No good. I'm glad I'm not Secretary of Defense, but

(36:03):
I know I'm going to keep fighting the power
