Joe Getty
And now here's Armstrong and Getty.
- [04:07]
Michael
Did you guys see this?
- [04:08]
Joe Getty
Yesterday in San Francisco, two United planes on the tarmac bumped into each other.
- [04:12]
Michael
Other United calls that an accident, while Southwesters calls it a high five.
- [04:17]
Joe Getty
I believe we played that joke like five minutes ago, did we not? Yes, we did. And we talked about it and laughed about it. Or did I make that up in my head? Am I having a stroke? Didn't we just play that joke?
- [04:27]
Michael
If you are. We both are simultaneously, which is disturbing.
- [04:30]
Joe Getty
Okay, Michael, you're clearly having. No, I was trying to hit number. Okay, that's just my little cursor. It wouldn't. It doesn't bother you? It doesn't bother me that we played the same joke twice. It would bother me if you didn't remember that because then we would have a serious problem, right?
- [04:45]
Michael
Yeah, indeed.
- [04:46]
Joe Getty
We're. Okay.
- [04:47]
Michael
It's a fine joke and well worth hearing. Actually, it's barely mildly amusing. Yes.
- [04:51]
Joe Getty
Jobs numbers out about a third of what they were projecting. That is low. And the job market is. I'll use the actual term the Wall Street Journal uses. Deteriorating markedly, they said. So more on that coming up later.
- [05:08]
Michael
Yes, indeed. And Donald J. And or his people are questioning the statisticians. Interesting. So speaking of Donald J. And policy and that sort of thing. The New York Times has a big front page piece today about a 2019 SEAL Team 6 operation that has never been publicly acknowledged or even hinted at by either the United States or North Korea, where Seal Team 6 was doing what they do so well. And the New York Times understands, you can tell, they understand that revealing this at all is a little questionable.
- [05:47]
Joe Getty
Right. I wonder how many of these happen around the world that we never hear about. You think of lots. Several.
- [05:58]
Michael
Yeah. The people who spoke to them and then the New York Times editors who decided to go ahead with the story said they're doing this because they were concerned that special operations failures are often hidden by government secrecy. If the public and policymakers became aware only of high profile successes like the raid to put a couple of slugs in Bin Laden's head, they may underestimate the extreme risks that American forces undertake.
- [06:25]
Joe Getty
That's not a bad argument.
- [06:27]
Michael
I don't, I don't love that argument. You know, it's funny, I.
- [06:32]
Joe Getty
Feel like we kind of have a vision of Seal Team 6. If they set out on a mission, it's always successful and things go wonderful and I don't know if that's good.
- [06:41]
Michael
Yeah. And you know, it's funny arguing with myself here. The leaders of various regimes around the world, both friendly and unfriendly, if you, you know, were to get them to tell the truth, from Xi Jinping to Vlad Putin to the friggin Canadians, they would say, oh yeah, we do everything we can all the time. Yeah, yeah, we don't talk about it. A lot of it's covert and. But yeah, the idea that, how can you condemn them for spying when we're spying? If you've ever said that in your life, drop and gimme 20 cuz you're a jackass and need to atone for your jackass ish ness. Everybody's doing everything they can all the time, you jackass. Anyway, back to seal Team 6. So what happened was in 2019, when Trump was negotiating and, and apparently very friendly with Kim Jong Un, right, In search of a nuclear agreement, breakthrough, thawing of relations, the whole deal, we had a terrible blind spot because for years US Intelligence had found it nearly impossible to recruit human sources within North Korea and to tap communications in their insular, totalitarian state. They just. We were not able to work our spy craft and the foreign policy, you know, folks and Donald J. Were really, really anxious to get insight into Kim Jong Un's thinking because the North Korean leader seemed increasingly unpredictable and dangerous and his relationship With Trump had lurched erratically between letters of friendship and public threats of nuclear war.
- [08:22]
Joe Getty
And they actually have a weapon and a way to deliver it, maybe.
- [08:26]
Michael
Right, right. So the White House decided that they had a fix for the intelligence problem. A newly developed electronic device. Intercept. Mr. Kim's communications problem was somebody had to sneak in and plant. Needed to be located geographically in an advantageous. Advantageous place. So the job was given to seal Team 6 in 2018. As they point out in the Times, even for SEAL Team 6, the mission would be extraordinarily difficult. The seals are more used to quick raids in places like Afghanistan and Iraq. Um, they would have to survive for hours in frigid seas, slip past security forces on land, perform a precise technical installation, then get out undetected. And in North Korea, where obviously any. If things got ugly, it could provoke catastrophic retaliation. Whether, you know, they have thousands and thousands of artillery pieces and rocket launchers pointed at Seoul all the time, and our military bases outside of Seoul and. And we have 28American troops in South Korea right there by the border. So anyway, high, high risk. So what happened was this. The plan called for the navy to sneak a submarine nearly two football fields long.
- [09:47]
Joe Getty
Wow.
- [09:48]
Michael
Well, so 600ft, that would be a boomer and not an attack sub, I would think. Anyway, I'll check on that. But into the waters off North Korea and then deploy a small team of seals into mini subs, each about the size of a killer. Wh.
- [10:02]
Joe Getty
Wow.
- [10:03]
Michael
That would motor silently to the shore.
- [10:07]
Joe Getty
Wow.
- [10:07]
Michael
But like the old, horrible racist joke about the Polish navy with screen doors on submarines, these submarines are called wet subs, which meant the seals would ride immersed in 40 degree ocean water for about two hours to reach the shore, using scuba gear and heated suits to survive. So you get your mini sub close to shore, and each mini sub would release a group of eight seals, about eight seals who would swim to the target, installed the device, then slipped back in the sea. But they faced a serious limitation. They'd be going in almost blind. Unlike, for instance, the bin Laden raid, where the special ops forces have drones overhead to give them high definition videos of the targets. So the seals on the ground, senior leaders, can communicate in real time, can even listen in on enemy communications free frequently and adjust the mission as necessary. But in North Korea, any drone would be spotted. So they had to rely on satellite images and high altitude spy planes with minutes long lags and low definitions.
- [11:14]
Joe Getty
Oh, boy.
- [11:15]
Michael
Yeah, yeah, I know. So. And everything had to be done under a near blackout of communications. You give them the go, they go and just hope things go well and or adjust and overcome.
- [11:26]
Joe Getty
I don't have any idea what I'm talking about here, but I'm surprised this got signed off on as a, like, likely success.
- [11:36]
Michael
You're right, it's. They use the term, you know, extremely high risk and repercussions and catastrophic this and that a lot in this article. It could not have been an easy call. So anyway, SEAL Team 6 practices for months in U.S. waters. Continued prep into the first, excuse me, weeks of 2019, February of that year, Trump announced he would meet Kim for nuclear summit in Vietnam at the end of the month. And so it's not clear why Trump approved it. Nobody's really talking. All the heavyweights declined to comment, obviously. So the submarine launched the too many subs. They got to about 100 yards from shore in clear, shallow water. And mission planners, knowing that they would not have real time intelligence, tried to compensate by spending months watching how people came and went in the area. They studied fishing patterns, chose and chose a time when boat traffic would be scant. If any. Intelligence suggested if these seals arrived silently in the right location in the dead of night in winter, they'd be unlikely to encounter anyone. Well, unlikely don't mean impossible. And as the mini sub glided toward the target, sensors suggested the intelligence was correct. The shore is empty. They reached the spot where they were supposed to park on the seafloor. Then there were three seemingly inconsequential mistakes that may have doomed the mission. In the first, one of the mini subs settled in the right space. The second one overshot the mark, had to do a U turn, and they were parked in opposite directions, which they had to correct after the guys got off the subs. Sliding doors on the subs open. All the seals, gripping untraceable weapons loaded with untraceable ammunition, swam silently underwater to shore with the listening device. Every few yards, the seals peeked above the black water to scan their surroundings. Everything seemed clear. That might have been a second mistake, because bobbing in the darkness was a very small boat without lights. On board was a crew of North Koreans who are easy to miss because the sensors in the seal's night vision goggles were designed to detect heat in part. And the wetsuits the Koreans wore were chilled by the cold seawater, so they were invisible.
- [13:56]
Joe Getty
Now these are Korean defense forces or just fisher people.
- [14:00]
Michael
There's suspense is building. The seals reach the shore thinking they were alone, starting to remove their diving gear. Target only a few hundred yards away. Back at the mini Subs. The pilots reposition the sub with the sliding cockpit doors open for visibility and communication. The pilot revved the electric motor, brought the sub around. That was probably the third mistake. Some of the seals speculated afterward that the motor's wake might have caught the attention of the North Koreans in the boat. And if the boat crew heard a splash and turned to look, they might have seen some of the instrument lights from the subs open cockpits glowing in the dark, dark night there on the dark water. And the boat started moving toward the mini subs. And the North Koreans aboard were shining flashlights and talking in a tone that indicated they had noticed something. Some of the mini sub pilots told officials afterward that from their vantage point, it seemed the boat was a safe distance away and everything was fine. But the seals on the shore saw it differently. It's a pitch dark, featureless sea, and the boat seemed to be moving practically on top of the mini subs. Communications blocked out. No way for the shore team to confer with the mini subs. Lights from the boat swept over the water, the flashlights scanning the water. And the seals didn't know, to your question, if they were seeing a security patrol on the hunt for them, but. Or simply some poor North Korean sons of bitches who are fishing, or I think it turned out, looking for oysters or something like that. But the point is the. The top guy on the shore said, mission compromise. This is no good. And they unleashed some holy hell on the guys in the boat, then boarded the boat to make sure all the North Koreans were dead. They were indeed. They found no guns or uniforms. Evidence suggested the crew had been civilians diving for shellfish. All were dead. Wow. And they. And this is not for the kids, if the kids are listening. Number one, what are you listening to this show for? Kids go out and play anyways. Secondly, officials familiar with the mission said the seals pulled the bodies out of the water to hide them from North Korean authorities. One added that the seals punctured the boat crew's lungs with knives to make sure their bodies would sink. All U.S. personnel escaped unharmed. And to this day. Thanks, New York Times. Nobody on either side has even hinted that anything happened.
- [16:30]
Joe Getty
Wow, those poor fishermen.
- [16:33]
Michael
Yikes. As if they, you know, didn't have crappy enough lives, you know?
- [16:37]
Joe Getty
Right. They're out there living like it's a thousand years ago, just trying to come up with some food in the dark of night, in the cold.
- [16:45]
Michael
Durr. Yeah.
- [16:47]
Joe Getty
Wow. You run into SEAL Team 6.
- [16:49]
Michael
Yeah. That's a long night. Well, that's a short. Wow. Depends how you look at it. What a story. Anyway, Michael, what'd you say? Prize Picks?
- [16:55]
Joe Getty
Yeah.
- [16:55]
Michael
Oh, it's a delight to tell you about prize picks last night.
- [16:58]
Joe Getty
Did you have a more or less on two spitting incidents in the NFL kickoff game of the season? I don't know if that was one of the things you could put your money on with prize picks. Probably wasn't, but the season is underway and you should have the Prize Picks app downloaded so you can get into it right away.
- [17:15]
Michael
Yeah, it's super easy and fun. You just pick at least two players and say I think they're going to do more or less than the stat projection and you can combine different guys from different teams. Heck, you can do different sports. With baseball really heating up right now. It's easy, it's fun, it's daily a fantasy sports without like investing like a second job in some team and league.
- [17:37]
Joe Getty
When you got Chiefs Chargers today in Brazil. How exciting is that? Lots of opportunities there. Download the app today and use the code Armstrong to get $50 in lineups after you play play your first five dollar lineup. That code is ARMSTRONG to get $50 in lineups AFTER you play your first five bucks prize picks. It's good to be right.
- [17:54]
Michael
Indeed it is. How many players wives will get Brazilian waxes while they're in Brazil? They don't have that on prize picks either.
- [18:01]
Joe Getty
Who are the crowd be rooting for?
- [18:02]
Michael
Will there be a crowd?
- [18:03]
Joe Getty
Do people in Brazil care about football? So I was back in Kansas last weekend and a lot of people were talking about why did K state football play some but other team in Ireland and apparently there were a few fans and the few fans who were there didn't didn't care about either team. So I don't know why we're doing this stuff. We got a lot more on the way. I hope you can stay here.

GoDaddy Advertiser
Whoa.
- [22:18]
Joe Getty
Automatically. So Jalen Carter, the focus and the star for the Eagles on the front line out for the game before a snap. Here he goes. He walks there in front of Dak Prescott. Did he spit? Did he spit on him? There you go. Jalen Carter out of this game before a snap. The best player on defense for the defending super bowl champions doesn't even make it to the first play of the game before he spits on the opposing quarterback and gets kicked out. That's quite the development.
- [22:54]
Michael
Wow. My headline is Hawker Shocker sets Eagles back. They won anyway, but barely.
- [23:05]
Joe Getty
That is. That's quite the development.
- [23:08]
Michael
Now I expectorant better.
- [23:11]
Joe Getty
Hansen, you claim that. Did somebody else spit first? Is that what you're claiming, that Prescott spit first? I don't know. I haven't. Yeah. Okay. That's what Hanson is saying. I haven't come across that anywhere. But he says the. The gentleman got spit upon and so retaliated by spitting. But.
- [23:28]
Michael
Well, not. Not upon, but at.
- [23:31]
Joe Getty
Okay.
- [23:31]
Michael
Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Cowboys, could be seen spitting in the direction of the Eagles. Said in his post game press conference, he spits a thousand times throughout the game.
- [23:41]
Joe Getty
Right. They all do.
- [23:41]
Michael
I wasn't gonna spit on my lineman and I just spit ahead.
- [23:45]
Joe Getty
Yeah. Okay.
- [23:48]
Michael
And then Carter spit back.
- [23:50]
Joe Getty
Hanson.
- [23:51]
Michael
The rest saw it.
- [23:52]
Joe Getty
Hanson says he smiled after he spit and that was indication that it was a malicious spinach.
- [23:57]
Michael
Oh my. This is. It's gonna be like the Kennedy assassination. Jack back into the left, back into. People are going to be arguing for generations.
- [24:05]
Joe Getty
These young dudes get so incredibly amped up. It's amazing they stay as in control as they do.
- [24:13]
Michael
Oh, yeah.
- [24:14]
Joe Getty
And this doesn't happen.
- [24:16]
Michael
It's easy to criticize them for when they get over the top and celebrate too much or get in somebody's face. And you know, they're pros, they get paid a lot of money. But yeah, to. To get yourself on the very edge of being able to control your energy. And aggression so you can be successful on the field. But then as the whistleblows, hello, Fine tackle, sir. Well done.
- [24:36]
Joe Getty
You're a worthy opponent.
- [24:38]
Michael
Feel, excuse me, I must retreat to my huddle. Just it's, it's a lot to ask.
- [24:45]
Joe Getty
Okay, a brief version of this. Maybe we'll talk about it more later. All the European leaders gathered yesterday in Europe to talk about Russia, Ukraine and what they're willing to do. McCrone of France said that 26 of Ukraine's allies have pledged to deploy troops to Ukraine. 26 countries have pledged to deploy troops as part of a reassurance force. Then Putin announced yesterday any Western forces would be legitimate targets if they arrive in Ukraine. That's pretty, that's, this is getting pretty dicey.
- [25:19]
Michael
That is bold talk, I'd say. Do you back down from that escalating?
- [25:24]
Joe Getty
Do you back down from that as these European nations, particularly France and Great Britain, or do you say, okay, go ahead, we're going to put our troops there, Go ahead, you want to fight NATO now?
- [25:33]
Michael
If you're gonna back down from that, what are you even doing at this party?
- [25:36]
Joe Getty
We'll see how this turns out. We're gonna talk a little RFK junior hearing coming upstairs.

- [29:33]
Michael
Over science and politics, the heart of.
- [29:36]
Joe Getty
The conflict, turmoil at the CDC and vaccines.
- [29:40]
Michael
Chad Pergrim there on Fox News reporting on RFK Jr. S hearing before the Senate committee was, as you're about to hear, highly combative and from my perspective, really interesting in that there are a lot of things that Kennedy said that struck me as being absolutely important to say. And, and I was very glad somebody finally said them. And we'll have some examples of that. There were also times I thought he came off as a crackpot or wildly inconsistent. We'll just say that. And it's, it's interesting. And I think. I think a lot of people fall into this camp and, and it's true to some extent of Donald J. Himself. A lot of what he's doing is absolutely fantastic. But that last, like 20% of, you know, behavior, speech, policy, whatever. I wish we could just trim that off. And I find myself thinking of RFK in similar terms, but more audio than to the analysis.
- [30:51]
Joe Getty
The Wall Street Journal did not think much of it. Of course you would. If you were. If you're really a maha, you would say, well, of course they're all about big business and you can't get bigger big business than pharma. Of course they're out there on the side of pharma.
- [31:07]
Michael
It's not an idiotic argument.
- [31:09]
Joe Getty
Nope.
- [31:10]
Michael
I don't buy it entirely.
- [31:13]
Joe Getty
Many of that argument. No, me neither.
- [31:15]
Michael
But it's not without its point.
- [31:18]
Joe Getty
Exactly. Well, and then you've got, as always, the CDC lied to all of us. We all know it. Everybody knows it. During COVID to.
- [31:30]
Michael
About vaccines specifically. Whoops. About this very credibility. Yes, whoops.
- [31:35]
Joe Getty
So that makes it tough.
- [31:37]
Michael
Yeah, it does. There's more great audio. Let's roll on next clip.
- [31:40]
Joe Getty
Michael, Senate Democrats unloaded on Kennedy. Sir, I'm asking the questions. You are the witness.
- [31:46]
GoDaddy Advertiser
And sir, you're a charlatan. That's what you are. Should resign.
- [31:49]
Michael
But the secretary gave as good as he got. You're making things up to scare people. And it's a lie. This is crazy talk. You just make stuff up. You're so wrong on your facts.
- [32:00]
Joe Getty
Kennedy's new Covid booster guidelines roiled the hearing.
- [32:04]
Michael
So you're saying that is now the.
- [32:05]
GoDaddy Advertiser
Official rule of hhs. Anybody is eligible to get a booster.
- [32:11]
Joe Getty
By just walking into the pharmacy.
- [32:13]
Michael
It's not recommended for healthy people.
- [32:15]
Joe Getty
No, no.
- [32:16]
GoDaddy Advertiser
If you don't recommend, then the consequence of that in many states is that.
- [32:22]
Michael
You can't walk into a pharmacy and get one.
- [32:25]
Joe Getty
So I want to play this next clip because I took a lot of coverage of this and the mainstream media used this as the example because they all hate rfk. Junior Obviously, and anything that's Trump related. So the mainstream media used this as the number one example yesterday of how RFK Jr is so inept. And I think they're just wrong about this.
- [32:44]
Michael
You're the Secretary of Health and Human Services. You don't have any idea how many Americans died from COVID I don't think anybody knows that because the. There was so much data chaos coming out of the cdc.
- [32:58]
Joe Getty
You don't know the answer of how.
- [33:00]
Michael
Many Americans from COVID This is the Secretary of Health and Human Services. How can you be that ignorant? We are Senator Mark Warner, who is a lying, partisan jackass.
- [33:11]
Joe Getty
If that's your. That's your best example of how RFK Jr is not up for the job, that he says he doesn't know how many people died of COVID deaths. Nobody freaking knows. That is documented. Remember we were reading from the LA Times there toward the end of COVID where they stated half the people that were being reported as COVID deaths at hospitals in Los Angeles, half died with COVID Not because of COVID Of COVID Right. Half.
- [33:40]
Michael
Right.
- [33:40]
Joe Getty
So how would you have the slightest idea how many people died of COVID.
- [33:44]
Michael
Well, and what a brilliant encapsulation of the state of our politics. How many people died of COVID It's impossible to know because the data is so corrupt. How can you be so ignorant? What just happened there, whatever it was, was not the way you run a republic.
- [33:58]
Joe Getty
I would say I don't think RFK Jr did the best job of pushing back. I think I just did a better job of pushing back against that. That, you know, if he would have said what I just said, it would have been a better sound clip.
- [34:09]
Michael
So The Republicans have two doctors on that committee, interestingly enough, Dr. Barrasso and doctor. His name just flitted out of my head. Who's the other one? Cassidy, of course. And they were not pleased and not impressed by RFK Jr. It was not a partisan thing. Let's run 32.
- [34:31]
Joe Getty
Michael. Even the Senate's number two Republican, a doctor vexed by Kennedy's vaccine positions. In your confirmation hearings, you promised to uphold the highest standards for vaccines. Since then, I've grown deeply concerned. Republican Thom Tillis warned Kennedy to tread carefully. We're playing with fire here. If the death rates go up for children who aren't vaccinated, they need to own opponent. Well, it was. It was brought up a couple of times that RFK Jr said in 2020, I believe it had to be after that because we didn't even have the vaccine then. So I don't know when it was, but he said at one point the vaccine killed more people than Covid did. Well, that's a ridiculous thing to say.
- [35:14]
Michael
Yeah, well, and he'd hailed as genius President Trump's operation Worse Warp speed. The Wall Street Journal editorial board's headline, RFK junior's Operation Warped Memory. The health secretary can't keep his vaccine story straight. And he talks about how he'd said it was fabulous and genius and blah, blah, blah. These are the same vaccines that RFK also called a crime against humanity. So which is it, Mr. Kennedy? Was Trump's vaccine operation a triumph or a government catastrophe? And they go through a bunch of other back and forths that he's had. And then J.D. vance, who, you know, he's a very savvy guy and his brain, his big throbbing brain has, has told him, you go 100% black and white. There is no gray area. Our side is 100% right. Everybody questions it, 100% evil, and we're going to kick their asses. And that's the way to run politics in the modern world. He might be right. He said, when I see all these senators trying to lecture and gotcha Bobby Kennedy today, all I can think is you all support off label untested and IR reversible hormonal therapies for children, mutilated our kids and enriching big pharma. You're full of sh. And everybody else knows it. I don't think Bill Cassidy is pro mutilating children in the name of transgenderism. JD but again, no black. Oh, I'm sorry, no gray. Only black and white.
- [36:43]
Joe Getty
Well, he needs Maha to get elected president in the same way that Trump did. So, you know, just from a political standpoint, he knows what he's doing there, there. Kim Strassel on the Wall street journal today. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Has married ineptitude to pet obsessions, producing a goat rodeo for the ages. And she goes on. But she wasn't a fan.
- [37:07]
Michael
No. And it's a very learned, very sober takedown. We'll post the link@armstrong getty.com if you want to read it yourself. Everybody, you know, have, has different opinions about all this stuff and that's fine. We, you know, we, we respect your opinions, whatever they are, because as we've said, there are plenty of good reasons to doubt the health establishment and, and a lot of stuff. RFK Jr said. I'm not a fan, for the record, but a lot of what he Said is absolutely right. In fact, including my favorite clip, which is coming up in a second. Why don't we pause right now for a quick word from our friends at trust and will. This is good advice. Trust me. When I say it it you gotta have a trust and or a will so the world knows what your plan is for your state.

That's trustandwill.com Armstrong RFK Jr. Had said.
- [38:47]
Joe Getty
Back in the day that the COVID vaccine that Trump came up with was a crime against humanity. Yesterday he said Trump should get the Nobel Prize for being behind the warp speed and getting that to market as quickly as he did. So he kind of changes his story over the years on that sort of stuff. And the Wall Street Journal pointing that out. Today, he RFK Jr is in charge of a quarter of the government budget. A quarter. It's the biggest. It's bigger than the Defense Department.
- [39:19]
Michael
Yeah, I remember we interviewed an HHS secretary a few years ago and I joked we were hoping for the secretary of defense, but we'll talk to you. He said, I got a bigger budget. And you know, he's absolutely right. Anyway, RFK Jr had enough of being yelled at by hypocrites and jackasses yesterday, also by sincere people with sincere concerns. And in clip 36, he lashes back. We are the sickest country in the world. That's why we have to fire people at cdc. They did not do their job. Senator, you've sat in that chair for how long, 20, 25 years while the chronic disease in our children went up to 76%. And you said nothing. You never asked the question, why it's happening. Why is this happening?
- [40:09]
Joe Getty
Yeah, I like that. Because it should have been declared a long time ago. An emergency situation we've got going on, trying to figure out why. Autism, anxiety, depression, suicide, all the different things kids are dealing with that they didn't used to deal with. Why is this happening, as you mentioned earlier? Why is the sperm count plummeting? All these things are health emergencies and not a lot of talk.
- [40:35]
Michael
So, Kim Strossel makes a couple of points that I found interesting. Number one, that Kennedy has no support in the Senate to speak of, but the Republicans are just keeping their heads down because of the, you know, vehemence of the Maha crowd. And Trump seems to still be on his side. And the second thing she says is that the agency is just not being run well, and there are all sorts of things that desperately needed to be done, but it's just. It's just chaos. Well, I don't want to belabor the point, but where is it? There was one great quote. If there's a minority of HHS customers that get jazzed by a raw milk debate, there are many more, including Republicans, who find Mr. Kennedy a quack or would appreciate it if you would vote a few minutes to improving their Medicare experience, et cetera. So.
- [41:31]
Joe Getty
Well, I was surprised with what Florida did. I wish we didn't have to be all or nothing about everything. So go from. What did my doctor friend say the other day? Kids, at least in California, get from birth to 18, you get 72 vaccines. That seems like a lot. I mean, I have no idea what I'm talking about, but that really seems like a lot lot. And your kids get so many more now than we all did when we were kids. But can't there be some sort of, okay, mumps, measles, polio, there's probably a couple others, tetanus that we all know are a good idea. How about all these other ones? Let's question those for a while. As opposed to go from they're all mandatory to none of them are mandatory.
- [42:10]
Michael
Well, right, yeah. Surely the sweet spot is somewhere in between. Oh, I found that. One last thing I wanted to say about Kim Strassel's article, she points out, and this is just interesting, whatever you think, that RFK, alone among Mr. Trump's cabinet members, is pursuing his own agenda, not the president's vision. Secretary of State Marco Rubio moves at warp speed to implement Trump's goal of reducing foreign aid. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins cutting deals to hand more food stamp flexibility over to states, just as Trump promised heads of the Interior, Energy Departments, EPA revamping entire rule books to unleash the American energy at Trump's behest, Mr. Kennedy, he's perusing lists of his trial lawyer friends deciding whom to award influential government positions. You're forgiven if you don't remember Mr. Trump's campaign promise to empower Mr. Kennedy's litigators set. In other words, he's not really executing a Trump thing. He's just his own president of the hhs.
- [43:02]
Joe Getty
So Nike's got a new slogan. Not that that matters, but what does that say about our young people? Or what Nike seems to think about our young people today that's worth talking about. Are we gonna have a lot of youth athletes spitting on their opponents now after last night's Thursday night NFL game? Is that the way? Is that the way we do things now? You spit on your opponent on it?
- [43:21]
Michael
Well, at least it'll be girls spitting on girls and not dudes spitting on girls in quote unquote girls. Sports as we are moving swiftly in the direction of the return of sanity, one of the greatest things Trump and company are doing.
- [43:34]
Joe Getty
Oh really? I don't know anything about that. Lots to talk about.
- [43:36]
Michael

- [47:34]
Joe Getty
So I had a lightning storm last night at the football game and it was delayed for an hour and it was a close Game number one. Number two, watch TV show in America. And it got delayed for a whole hour. Anyway, so I have a delicate topic here to discuss. And whenever I've brushed up against this topic in the past, Joe has become.
- [47:57]
Michael
Oh, no.
- [47:58]
Joe Getty
An unhappy participant and, and already unhappy preemptively and argued against it being a subject matter all. Now there's a. There's another one that is the reverse that Joe talks about, and I don't like talking about it. And I don't remember what it is. Might be human body parts. Is it sex? I don't know what it is. But like you, your argument is it's the human body or it's natural or grow up or whatever.
- [48:22]
Michael
I feel like I don't even know what we're talking about, much less signing off on your characterization of my argument on whatever we're talking about.
- [48:31]
Joe Getty
There is something, though, that you tell me that, that, That I don't like to talk about and you say grow up. Okay. To which. And that's what I'm going to say about this topic that I know you don't like to discuss because it's as natural and normal there. Every other advertisement on television is about this topic.
- [48:49]
Michael
Go ahead.
- [48:51]
Joe Getty
And I have a question to throw out to the listener that might have an answer. First of all, nobody can ever accuse me of using this show to try to get dates because I would not talk about. About any of the things that I talk about if I were trying to land a date. I guarantee you that. I went and visited the restroom.
- [49:10]
Michael
Oh, boy.
- [49:12]
Joe Getty
About 20 minutes ago. And it was the first time a certain natural function had occurred in five days. No. Five days.
- [49:22]
Michael
What the. What?
- [49:24]
Joe Getty
This regularly happens to me.
- [49:26]
Michael
Me.
- [49:28]
Joe Getty
And I've been working on it for a while, talking to the doctor.
- [49:32]
Michael
Well, and you. It's not like you take in 500 calories a day as some sort of, you know, neogandi. Ascetic discipline. No, you eat like a bear that broke into a. A cabin.
- [49:45]
Joe Getty
And as I said, there are ads all the time on television about this, so it must be a common problem. But a lot of the stuff that they recommend in ads, at least according to my doctor, you don't want to do regularly or your body becomes addicted and it no longer works naturally and it won't do what it's supposed to do. What's the right term? Bm or what do you want. What do you want to call it?
- [50:04]
Michael
That'll do? Sure.
- [50:05]
Joe Getty
Okay. Your. Your body won't do it without the drug after a while. So you don't want to use the drug regularly. I finally took the drug last night because it'd been five days and something's gotta. Something's gotta give. So I talked to my doctor about it. He's recommended various supplements that have not worked for him. Me, he said prunes. I. I don't know what a prune is. I've never seen a prune or had a prune. What is a prune? What. What's a prune?
- [50:29]
Michael
Mary in the Hoe. Add that to your list of things Jack has never done or seen or eaten. A. A prune is a. A fruit. It is.
- [50:38]
Joe Getty
What does it look like? Can you get it at this?
- [50:40]
Michael
Like a prune? It looks precisely like a prune, which is something everybody but you can recognize.
- [50:49]
Joe Getty
So the doctor said, add in prunes to your diet. Start with one. I don't know if the. What is the size of a prune? Is it the size of a golf.
- [50:55]
GoDaddy Advertiser
Ball or a football?
- [50:56]
Joe Getty
Well, I don't know what a prune is.
- [50:57]
Michael
They're about a quarter in his natural state. No, it's. It's. It's like an elongated golf ball, but roughly that size.
- [51:04]
Joe Getty
And did you eat it like an apple? You just munch on it like that?
- [51:07]
Michael
Well, they're often dried to preserve them because you can dried prunes in a box you keep forever. But yeah, after a couple of my surgeries, I react horribly to the opiate pancakes killers. And one of the horrifying symptoms is just complete constipation. And yeah, I had to wolf down prunes and prunes, really?
- [51:28]
Joe Getty
I've never had a prune, but so my doctor said, start with one prune. If that doesn't work, add two, and then you stop when you hit the sweet spot. That's what he told me.
- [51:36]
Michael
So I'm gonna try it per day or what?
- [51:38]
Joe Getty
I guess. Yeah. Yeah.
- [51:40]
Michael
My dad grew up on these.
- [51:41]
Joe Getty
Your dad grew up on prunes?
- [51:43]
Michael
Oh. And as regular as the London subway. Yeah, I wouldn't think one prune would do you any good whatsoever. But I'm not a sawbones.
