listening to the debate today is patent stupor, Glenn, Tripoli. Seventy seven be easy, Kate
So the big announcement yesterday was the dusty. The briar is going to step down as sprinkler justice, which means there
be an opening at the end of the session, and I think this
session ends began after they make dollar pronouncements in in the summer
so
become a Harris
oh no summer speculating, it might be. That would get her out of the way at least of the administration, and they
to try to find somebody who might help the administration in the administrations like ability
she's, not she's, not helping
they know that, but I don't know if she goes to the Supreme Court.
yeah. I would say that one does not. This does not seem likely to make didn't you say, though he will
wait a woman and
and in fact a black woman too yes, fruit or, and that's how we know right away that
no one can make the argument that the best candidate will get this job
because he's eliminated, the almost every person in the country. Yes,
If you look it's right again, the
black woman may very well be the most qualified person for the job. But there's no way to argue that you went through a process where you
determine that in that
problem here to think about how stunning that is you're talkin about,
the most important judge, ships
this nations history and you just said: I'm good
going for essentially aesthetics, yes,
I'm going to I'm gonna to base this decision on skin color on the way they look gender.
Skin color gotta be my two first decisions screen
on the Supreme Court is not who have person is not what their legal background is. Just the fact that they are
black and a woman is society to prevent
and so
anti american full full! Stop you don't! It would have
would be Anti american to say I am going to put the select the best white male to be on the Supreme Court. That would be anti american
the anti american media think about what it is, what it means to Asian American right now. No chance,
eliminating right if you're hispanic, american, no chance you're eliminated
you're a black man. No chance your limit
what, if you are one of the other nine hundred and twenty seven genders and are also black? What have you
happened to be a white person, a white male, that I
defies as a black woman, you're you're too. I guess that one could maybe side through, but if you are, if you're non binary, you have no chance. Let me ask you
how many hermaphrodites currently serve on or have ever served on the EU a Supreme Court just the one. Just this, the one
and that was hides when people to guess it works as of right now. I think the horizontal number is zero, so think about this, but african away,
can make up. Twelve percent of the population even eliminated,
eighty eight percent of the population with decision one then
proximately half of African Americans are men,
so now you don't you six percent of the population. Of course,
six percent of the population,
exactly one third is too young and
ultimately one thirty, two old. So now you down
two percent of the population
and honestly like that-
a wide range, but you ve eliminated ninety eight percent
the available candidates for this job well, and then how many of those on any of that two percent have been the law school. How many of them are judges and they have to be, but I think you know that
resident. Is that that's who we appoint? Industries is trained in the law against, should entered so, but since that could mean a lot of different things, but the bottom line is even if you just take out. Obviously in every population, all those things apply right. Alot of Renault White males have not gone to law school to you, but if you look at the population overall,
your eliminating at least ninety percent of the illegal legally available
options to you, which means that
even if
and it may very well be true. Whoever they name is the boy
liberal justice
go to the Supreme Court. The most qualified they can't possum
we claim it, because everyone else was already eliminated when they had, without
standard other
this color of their skin and what they have underneath the robe, it's a complete its it
we used to have this thing and and
small sum- I argue this isn't better, but I will argue that it is
all the way we did these things was
behind closed doors. Someone like Joe Biden will say I will
a black woman for this role,
Then we would fake it and we would act as if
week considered everyone men at the
the day the most qualified person was. It was a black woman guy. Now again me
very well be the case. I'm not saying it couldn't be, but
person in politics would make a political decision based on some dumb immutable characteristic,
and we would all they would bring it.
Just like the NFL does right now write the NFL like with. If you want to pick up a coach, you have to do
have to interview african american candidates right now
Even if you know exactly who you want to hire.
you come in and you still have to hire african american candidates that I think that's you again
a bad idea, because it's based you're making decisions based on skin color. Here
Supreme Court apologies
may very well say I would like to attract black voters and,
We know this from all of the post election. Writing that James
hi burn went to
Joe Biden. This is a true story. Went to job
events that, if you want my endorsement, which we all know, is the reason he's present of United States, James Kleiber, getting him over the hump in South Carolina because he had been beaten badly in the first member states against almost written off almost are enough.
If you want my endorsement, you will put a black woman on the Supreme Court and
there are multiple reports that
in the middle of a debate in a cup
also break James Kleiber and went to Joe Biden. Instead, you
to announce this on stage and Joe Biden did. That is how pathetic this is. It is come
poorly politics. Now then he's
apparently locked in from that time, tell them
actual nomination, yeah so
so kleiber and put political pressure on them to name a black woman. He says he will. He comes
he announces that that intention and
the old way would be. This will have
behind closed doors right, he would not say it onstage, he would come out and he would go through a bunch of Kennedy bring in some white candidates. He knew he wasn't gonna higher. He bring. It has
Anna candidate that he knew he wasn't gonna higher and
then he would pick the black woman and say she was the most qualified and
we all know stuff like that happens, but at least there
a possibility of a claim that she was the most qualified. You can't claim it with this process because you ve eliminated all of the other candidates
it's completely crazy if you started out
the beginning, by saying I want the most qualified candidates in, and we already know, that's a black woman,
that will be different right, my cousin,
You rightly considered everybody, but what
you found out was the DNS candidate is a black woman in that's. Why I'm going to nominate a black woman shirt?
it would be a process right if you need a specific put person said, like I've really put a lot about at this end, this particular black woman had is the best most qualified candidates. That's why I'm gonna put on the listeners. Bridmain, at least it dissuade some of the sun
the concern we have about just basing somebody something like this. This important on the rays of the person and the gender of the bird. You should make decisions based on the color of somebody skin
their gender. That used to be the thing.
It's that always frankly, I don't even know why we celebrate
ok, junior day anymore, because
I've gone the opposite of everything. He said every principle he
laid down.
they are the exact opposite of it. It's become a conservative holiday, its
it's not like it's like joy. Fourth, there's only one side of the hour of the oil that actually supports, as the earlier that celebrates the history of this country and memory
Kay days becoming the same.
I'm telling you like they. We are not that far away from people on that
tearing down statues of Martin Luther king. We are not that far away from it they ve already
on it with Abraham, Lincoln yeah. How far
could we possibly be not far at
with Ben Franklin. In fact, wasn't one of the american Junior statues defaced, I wouldn't be surprised price
I haven't. I dont think it was on him ok day, but it was a few months ago. They they actually spray painted into faced it, and you will see they might not know it, but,
the same groups that marched in Charlottesville would be doing the same stuff
that? The left wants to do and look at the policies that are not that different you'll note. The all right is pro abortion that all right
pro universal health care, among other policies that are very similar because, of course
they are right. We know we don't need to go back into european history to find out what these groups tend to believe. They tend to be socialists,
by the way, when you look at the policies of people like Richard Spencer, you find all sorts of overlap. Not with our fault.
Sophie of limited government. You can,
have limited government. If you want to force racial quotas and in all sorts of terrible racial identity. Carrion policies, you need a big government to do that. You know it's not
said enough by us on the right that
We all right that where's cop, that's continually thrown in the face of conservatives in this country and Trump supporters in this country in the
are the antithesis of virtually everything we believe yeah like they, their big government people. I mean totally
sport is spencer- is Robert and Richard Richard Spencer
but in blew me away when he was talking about his
inequalities ology, it's nothing.
What we believe in right. I mean that the way the
All right has been explained, is an alternative version of the right degree out. What it is is the alternative to the right. Yes, it is not in my heart of the right. It doesn't make any sense that it would be part of the right.
these political lines are aren't always drawn on policy. I know, and that's part of that's part of the reason why that sort of thing happens, but still it
is a
a way to vilify your average
Person, who just once lower taxes and that's what this comes down to. But the witness
cream court it just in
bearing anal everything,
but it does is a giant embarrassment. It
do not be embarrassed by this person he's just a terrible at all of these things. And again,
like I don't it's, not
a letter Injuriously Turkey too. He is at what web we may be, launching us into multiple wars or so
that's even worse, but we all
understand. These things happen behind the scenes they shouldn't happen, though, and
when he's doing it overtly like this, it is acknowledging
codifying this terrible ident dental identity, politics standard. Where we just pick people
send the color of their skin.
You could have done what prompted right release
the list of twenty Supreme Court justices right on. There are several people of color
will you know who you're picking before you walk in day one, but at least it gives the the
I'll be here in appearance to the public that it's not ok. To pick on to color skin, at the very
least you're sending the message that you in that
don't want to do that, even if you do
and bottom was like I'm so desperate, I'm just gonna say it.
when he was so desperate at that point in the campaign he just
Where did it out? We forget sometimes it he lost Iowa in New Hampshire, bad land of ETA and that they are so there were three losses. Piling up
and he was being written off and then all of a sudden, the South Carolina comeback, brought him right back into it. I people covenants do. Does America tellin me, they're Bernie said
Said one the nomination was over powwow and it wasn't over. No
turned around quite quickly. I mean and honestly you'd say normally, thank God. It wasn't Bernie Sanders, but what budget newly we notice a difference here? No at the other thing, I think, would be different. If I dont think Bernie Sanders would say, I'm definitely picking a black woman could be the Supreme Court. Justice despair
levels would be similar yeah.
the loss of freedom would be some yet. This is the best in the Glen Back Programme, and we really want to thank you for listening. Pan stupor gland, AAA savages,
would be easy K tat, I loved the fact
that an ultimatum was laid down for Spotify
you gotta make a choice. Here you got to artists on on your site,
and one of them has to go
call it tough call you do.
Will you choose the other guy
Neil. You hung, I don't
He thinks this is one thousand nine hundred and sixty nine still one thousand nine hundred and seventy. Even then, I'm saying okay, bye, bye, bye, bye meal,
Ah meal young demands that they that spot. If I drop Joe Rogan first of all,
shhh pebble in noodle this out
just signed a one hundred million dollar deal with Jill Rogan
you're. Not gonna, win this fight, but he D.
We give me their out my music on your site or Joe Rogan. You can have both and they
summarily dismissed his music? They grieve began at both here and we will not have yarn we're gonna miss all look at my Mammy locked bike. Here were: what are we gonna do without that's, what
do without it.
Oh! I have this opinion. I don't know how main street, but is, but that Neil Young sucks, yes all, is actually Caroline saw him. I have what's that, what's her classic rock opinion of NEO yunkers, I note crowding allows NASH idea. I can you know, is a song writer singer and I don't know how you can like MRS singer cycle,
Bob Dylan experience,
To me, it's bad is a lot of people whose in Love Bob Dylan. It's not my thing. I don't get it, I don't you. The Neil young thing falls out accounting, really don't get my had relatives who of Neil Young live and die with a guy. I know he's. Obviously you know no conservative and many of these people are concerned.
had stolen the guy because he was like you know. I don't know
speaking out against the man back of the day or something sure was- and
Guy war, guy, big
You know he was always bumping up
the government.
But now,
I guess he's all in with a government which is
an interesting hearing at the sixties protest singer and that's
the kind of what he was, what he or you kind of identify him with an
is he was sort of the counter
culture and now you're all about
this administration in everything they say yeah. I remember back interesting, two thousand six. He with Crosbie stills national young. They they sang the song, let's impeach the president and they're talking
George W Bush against the man fighting rang again, I can imagine the man now, of course, the ironically named freeze,
tour
but he was on at the time in two thousand six.
This kind of given that went on in IRAN, I e the free speech door now turns it do get Joe row get off of spot of I communist what a path set, a group of people. You can't hear a different opinion.
That ain't drunk, and you know what
away? Neil young is listening to this. Have any keys, not hearing Joe Romans opinions right he's heard that Joe Rogan has said certain things. That's what he's doing,
once people to not be
bull to hear those things he doesn't want. You
or me, or any one of the audience to hear that Joe,
get like some other treatment for a virus like that's how pathetic this is, and it worked for Joe Rogan right. So
How is it misinformation? If he's just telling you here's what work? For me, I mean it's hard to tell what works and what does an especially with cove and when the overwhelming majority, especially Joe Rogan, whose in a book guys in pretty good shape relatively young out
Absolutely nothing probably also works for Joe Rogan right
not something that the lady Alot of times wants to hear, but I mean most people are what I did that you did read mostly nothing. I took some vitamins and and starts to an view felt sick for a little while ago. I got that it was eight zero for a couple of days, but I lived exactly and I voted on. The show got it, you know, Keith got it and he he went with ivory. Acted rob, produce, Rob got it here.
With I reckon
his wife got it. She would.
Finally, in the end
the first started with the Murk bill, which didn't do anything for but give her bedside effects, and then she started on ever met and network. For her I mean how many times do I have to add a deadly hear about it. Working for people before you say Papa
maybe we don't understand everything about this Debbie. Just it's just
the bottom line is- and I keep coming back to this
with the covered thing, we don't need to go deeper, knew it, but it's like we have a lot of tools now that we didn't have two years ago, and this is not March twenty twenty any more people have choices, and you might say that choices dumb. A lot of people think
than I ever met. It is dumb choice for covered a lot of people. Think that
vaccine is a dumb choice for covered all.
Now we are at least
at six months away from any one being persuaded on either side. There has not been a single individual persuaded either way in six months ago, or more or more, I mean that when you
get the vaccination data from in Trump counties.
and biting counties. It's almost identical. Until may it's almost identical. I mean
rise at all the same path and then they diverged and more blue counties get have higher vaccination rates, though
be clear. It's not.
Dramatically different. I mean people make a big deal out of these differences about
The majority of both parties have been vaccinated at this point. You know there
a split. So what let people
make their own decisions. There are a lot of
out there if they believe it's. I reckon you know what
It's not your responsibility to micromanage their health you're, not their dad's, gay, let
make their own choices. If you think
as was stated in the New York Times recently that the that covered,
vaccinated person is less
dangerous less dangerous than the flu right. Now this
someone in the future. This is right now this is. It
or, if you, as a conservative or you, as maybe a covert sceptic, believe that statement,
important thing is that they believe it
they believe their sources are telling them a vast
in a person has less risk than the normal flew. That is what their science tells them
cares what your side cells you? Who cares? What the
pinions of all these other people are. The bottom line is the only people who want restrictions are people on the left and that
what they believe they don't act like they believe
then I'll tell you that, but that is what their science tells them. So
this is over the point, the fact-
Joe Rogan talks.
To an audience
mainly younger people who are-
in a word, a bully likely to have no problems with covert anyway and tells them to take
let's just say it was a completely bs solution of this problem. Let's say it's tree bark he was like you know what you gotta chew tree bark. If you go
up to your yard and you start biting on the nearest tree and pull off a good chunk of bark and you choose
but a little pieces and swallowed battle to your covert. Who cares
you're, going to Joe Rogan for your health advice. Such the thing you you know he's not a doktor is a guy trying to figure the world out and everybody who listens to him knows that they know he's just a guy talking on a podcast, his opinions and in a low, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna run out and do everything he said he did ass. You know Joe
the first? One of the first interviews I heard about carpet was Audio Rogan Show and who is,
Michael Austria Home, who is.
What it was, what was an adviser to Joe Biden Guy
and he came out and said: hey you note. This actually could be bat like this is.
this one. This one is not like some of these other ones that have come and gone this one we.
several problems with
went through the whole situation and he
ET in that interview. We should point out that the
it's not at all obvious. We should close schools
interviews in, like January or February of twenty to twenty. So
for any the stubble hated he hit us. It is here he said: schools, that's, probably not a wise choice, but in addition to that,
Joe Rogan during the interview asked him asked
virologist if one
the cures could be saunas. What it
you went into a sauna en route
then the really hot air would that kill covered in your lungs. That was one of his questions. Now by now that he said
No, I haven't body works and Rob was ok. I just heard it online, but that's jargon
broach like he's. Yes,
look at what happened in questions. He doesn't and there's nothing wrong with that. There's nothing wrong with it. It's a it can be very entertaining it can be very informative. A lotta people probably heard that same rumor.
at the same time and had it,
proved on Joe Rogan show.
he brought it up ass. He brought it up and was willing to sit out to ask a question that some journalists might be like all. This is a silly question he hasn't carries at regular guy. He reads
Then he wants to know more about it and he's not
but he's not embarrassed to say. Sometimes I don't have all the knowledge right and
instead of treating him as a really. You know this will be important,
like what's this way, Sancho Gupta
went on his show
I and Rogan show and talk to him for an hour and it out
times in which he was
I would think I thought was evasive to what Grogan was talking about.
But there were times he brought up things that maybe that audience hadn't heard and maybe convince some people-
of of different solutions.
The bottom line is just have the guts to going to talk to the guy
instead of silencing him yeah. If you think he's rise at school on the show and say that he is wrong or disproven with some science and Joe Rogan himself has said, he's not a covert expert has not a doctor. In fact, he said I'm effing idiot, who does it can be used
claiming to be a scientist. So you know
everybody listening, doesn't
run out and do what Joe Rogan said. Guy you're
Your madness has, as Joe Rogan would tell you if you go out and listen to every piece of Joe Romans health. If the glance talking about drugs, like eighty percent of it, shows
right now is that this is, must smoke pod on his does that mean every, but every american listening he's gotta run out and buy pot and smoke it now? No, no! No, it does not know what does not theirs
weird thing: the left wants to do silencing speech and it's not about them hearing and is about others here yet because, God forbid, they might be convinced.
Pinion, that's different than what Neil Young believes it look at meal young. Does he look like the picture of Elsie Guy looks like a good keel over any second bodies. A hundred and Seventys hundreds images, dot vanity was forty. You look like you could also getting lower at any. Second he's, never looked like the extra file, so
she was in a meal, young advice and you shouldn't listen Joe roads advice either or mine, or yours orb, you, your own research, many times his glance at it for
no twenty years he's been say and do your own research, I will say you might you might get the wrong answer if you do your own research, sometimes that might happen, but first of all it will be your decision and, second of all, you don't have to do this alone. You have a doctor of your own, go to them and ask them what you should do
you don't need to listen to Anthony found who might be infectious disease expert, but has no.
idea what your gear
the visual situation is, he doesn't even know who you are
go to your doktor talk to your doktor. That's it
way of handling these situations? Did he thought she hasn't hasn't?
actually had any patients for over forty years we keep on. He doesn't trained people anymore, not what he does now on his role, and so you shouldn't take service, like he can say as a as a public health expert. What he believes should be done, and those
Those suggestions can be.
Processed by politicians who are supposed to be experts in political science and Annette care about there,
their constituents not just
go blindly along with every expert that passes by that's, not how this is supposed to work. That's a different country! That's a different alignment! That's a technical technocracy to tat this budget technocrats, one of the country there are very good
at that. But now what we have- and I want you want- this- is the best of the planned back programme, as is the global programme with patents do today,
went back to Morrow, we ve been talking about the meal young Spotify situation. Where
that they really had to think long and hard now it's either Neil Young or
european jargon,
it's not that long. I do a lot of things you don't think it was only the runway. Like is need general get me. I don't think they got through the full Neil, but what we
for granted now is Spotify itself
incredible is the most incredible thing that
in twenty years ago. Fifteen years ago, really you couldn't have
imagined such a thing. I guess it was just starting to be a thing with them.
the initial our Napster Napster. My god
nap snatched. Her was the thing out here and you couldn't illegally dabbling in Itunes. Apple said: hey, you know what? Maybe we can make that legal and actually let people stream stuff and then
exploded into Pandora DORA spot, a fine. You know
a million different outlets, but the ability to
think of a song and think, while
in her that in a long time and five seconds later, your listening to it now I have the secondary less. They were out of my wife to set a random word that reminded me of a band, and then ten seconds later I was listening to that bad. That was totally obscure.
let us try to think about how to X,
way into my kids. What
My younger life was like listening to music of a totally get related. I remember I used to go
Drive around the state with my friends were who are veto. We are largely fans like the same bands and we would go and look for rare releases and like besides in remixes, unlike Farina overseas releases of albums, that had an extra track. Brian
Huge hunt these things down like you're searching. You know your me
in a river looking for gold back in the eighteen hundreds and it was so difficult and you you'd you'd, look out and find
you find one copy of Adobe, thirty eight dollars, eugenics grow, it get it anyway. You know, like you, didn't care, because you wanted to get your hands on this now they have everything they could ever want immediately a hunt
different versions, you know
we will miss, how good things are in so many ways these days. I think often because of the obvious and important
things they are going on. We miss a lot of good things in its changed things to the extent where
certain things just don't exist anymore, like calling for one one or in going to a music store or trying to find.
Sheet music, you don't need to do any of that, and I wonder,
we haven't worked in music radio for a really long time. Do they even take require?
Cindy more? Does anybody make your request? You don't mean to. I don't know
be. Listening to my favorite radio station colonists, hey, hey weren't! You please play the dew was shot by Olivier Arrive, recall you you go to Spotify your listening to Olivia run regally immediately. We we heard about you have called stage live ass, all the latest, many of your Rodrigo many too with that voice, because you want them to think you're. Fourteen Heyward, please play what's the name of his song. Were its
first, somebody or one that might, but you know that much is as already to Russia's really it's too much knowledge burnt alive IRAN rigging. That's are you the person? I always hear Glassdale of IRAN, rigour when new powers of a parking lot. That's not so I thought so, but it is amazing and ate it look there. Have there are always
sit down for this. If you owned a music store, you probably don't think this is as wonderful as many of the consumers do, but it isn't
but what you mean get and it is,
you can watch,
you commercials get it for free, I mean, but I subscribe to that. I think ethics modifies the one I subscribe to end its citizens as well.
Music as they get ever want
I'll, always available yeah, it's a curse
a similar eating. A similar thing has happened with movies at home. Yet anyway, we want last week where we have little tradition at my house where the kids come over and we we do movie night,
movie night every Friday as men and we lost access to the internet. Now, I'm like, oh my gosh. What are we gonna? Do we? I can't we
watch anything tonight. I dont know what and I we know we ve gotta
little room that has about five
hundred movies in it that IRAN Dvd thought. I forgot that that's even option thing I mean
dvds or are pretty much our care
Now you re the only River use em. Now we can
There's just it's too
but hassles like reality, thinking about actually going in and pudding
it's unbelievable. How fast that's what happens to really next back in the day. You have
Iphone where you just type in the the code,
Then it was writing your parent- and I remember thinking why were we actually need to just two of fingerprints so with it gets what does one second here saving and within a week it was irreplaceable in my life and then I have to type in your gear
I can't do that
It seems completely and set out in a week, and then they came out with a face idee thing and I think
of other scanning my face? All this information they have within a week. It was irreplaceable in my life. I can't imagine putting my finger on the phone now it's too soon and suchlike,
you shouldn't even ask you to do now? Don't asthma? Do that like every once in a while? I don't know I mean I don't know the mechanics setup and likely they. Maybe you turn your phone off and we turn it back on. You have to type the code instead of the face idea. One time, oh, my gosh, I want to burn apple to the ground happens. I, like, I think, about trade,
higher arsonists in China to earn their factories down every time. They asked me to do it
That's how insane you get. You think it about a killings, three archer. Why should not have to be that way? But it is it so it's
it just incredible how time from groundwater amaze yeah- and you know I mean like
even in times like this, where we ve had obviously not only the battles that we
often discuss on
talk, radio, with the restrictions for covert and all the terrible side effects they have had on our children and all that not to mention
actual health effects that have gone on and in all the people who have suffered and lost loved ones at all. The terrible things have happened over the past couple of years and you go back
look at death rate from ten or twenty years ago and we're still doing better than them.
We're doing worse than we were a couple of.
years ago, but still
