Episode Overview

This episode blends the show’s signature sharp-witted commentary with a focus on world affairs, particularly the recent Trump-Xi summit, national security, and nuclear testing. The hosts delve into media bias, the reliability of news reporting, unexpected (and humorous) disease outbreaks involving escaped monkeys, the ongoing government shutdown, and the surging influence of AI in medicine and the stock market. Rich banter and pointed cultural commentary run throughout, complementing updates on trending stories.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Trump–Xi Summit and Nuclear Testing

• Trump Meets Xi Jinping: The show opens with news of Trump’s two-hour meeting with China’s President Xi Jinping. Jack and Joe poke fun at Trump’s self-assessment (“12 out of 10,” [04:28]), noting neutral observers aren’t as upbeat.
• Media Bias & Varying Narratives: The pair lament the polarized coverage, with Jack stating:

  "I have two very distinctly contrasting accounts of the meeting and its results. It just goes to show you the nature of journalism." ([05:23])

• Nuclear Weapons Testing Announcement: Trump’s sudden directive to the Pentagon to resume nuclear weapons testing is discussed. The hosts note the ambiguous details, with Joe referencing Pentagon sources suggesting the focus is Russia’s nuclear delivery systems, not the weapons themselves ([05:50]).
• Broader Security Implications: Joe stresses the gravity of new Russian “unstoppable” delivery systems ([07:55]) and reflects on Cold War nostalgia and how the post-Cold War era's optimism now seems naïve.

Joe Getty (on media coverage):
“What's the point of even reading the newspaper to try to figure out what happened when there's a decent chance that they're giving you 180 degrees opposite of what occurred?” ([05:53])

---

2. Escaped Diseased Monkeys & Public Health Humor

• Escaped Lab Monkeys: The recent escape of experimental monkeys becomes a running joke. The banter is classic Armstrong & Getty—Joe claims he pet a monkey during a walk and woke up with a sore throat.
• Public Distrust & Institutional Honesty: Both Jack and Joe skewer official university reassurances that the monkeys are “not infectious,” paralleling broader skepticism of institutional truthfulness.
• Recurring Gag: The monkeys resurface throughout, with phrases like “How are your glands? A little swollen—monkey-sized," showing the duo’s penchant for darkly comic asides ([11:26]).

Jack Armstrong:
“Yesterday it was one monkey, now it's three. What, did they clone it? Did it have sex and have baby monkeys?” ([14:21])

Joe Getty:
“If they create a heinous disease that gets loose and kills lots of people, they pretend like there's a zero chance that that's what happened, even though everybody can see that's what happened.” ([15:32])

---

3. Government Shutdown & Media Messaging

• Shutdown Developments: The mainstream media’s focus on food benefit deadlines is critiqued, with Jack attributing Republican struggles to “D-minus messaging” ([12:50]).
• Media Framing: The hosts argue the blame game is skewed by liberal outlets, making it hard for Republican messaging to cut through.

Jack Armstrong:
“That's why you've got to be good. That's the game we play on the right side of the aisle. Got to be sharp with your messaging.” ([13:08])

---

4. The News Rundown with Katie Green ([20:19-24:04])

(Timestamps are approximate.)

• Key Headlines:
  • Trump secures South Korea trade deal and a “glittering crown” ([20:29])
  • Western intelligence alleges Iran is secretly rearming with Chinese help ([21:00])
  • AI is dominating global markets—“all that matters right now” ([21:25])
  • NFL Hall of Famer Antonio Gates tied to rigged poker [22:02]
  • Daily Mail: Plane delayed after crew brawl [23:13]
  • Babylon Bee satire: “Newsom issues licenses to women” [23:55]
• Memorable Reaction:
  Joe on Anne Frank parody musical:

  “Well, and the fact that I couldn't obviously tell it was a parody shows you where we are.” ([23:06])

---

5. The AI Stock Market Boom ([28:12–33:50])

• Fed Interest Rate Cuts: The show notes a .25% rate cut, bringing rates below 4% ([28:12]).
• AI as Market Mover: Citing Bloomberg, Jack and Joe discuss the “Magnificent Seven” (AI heavyweights) driving a multi-year bull run, highlighting Nvidia’s $5T market cap.
• Bubble Dynamics: They muse on the difficulty of timing bubbles and marvel at those who’ve held through 67% and 27% annual surges without “getting out too early.”
• Cultural Reflection:
  Joe:

  “It’s like not recognizing that gas powered engines were going to be a thing or something.” ([33:12])

---

6. AI and the Future of Medicine ([33:56–41:38])

• Personalized AI Medical Advice: Reporting on Daniel Axt’s use of Chatbot “Grok” for nuanced, tailored medical counsel, contrasting its depth and patience with frustrated, overworked doctors.

• Practical Examples: AI’s dietary iron advice surprises the hosts with tips like cooking in cast iron pans — to much amusement ([37:06]).

• AI as Ever-Present Medical Assistant:
  Katie:

  “It just creates one conversation and I don't have to go in and re explain myself every time. It just picks up right where we left off.” ([40:19])

• Cautions & Concerns:
  Jack shares a listener's experience of AI’s dangerous mistakes and notes the problem of chatbots giving harmful mental health advice. Joe cites a stat: over a million people per week show suicidal ideation to ChatGPT ([45:30]).

• On AI Medical Use:
  Jack:

  “Probably quite ready yet, but that could be the role of AI as like a supervising health quarterback.” ([36:49])

---

7. Mailbag & Listener Interaction ([45:59–51:07])

• Classic Listener Contributions:
  • Stories of self-reliance and hard work vs. “culture of dependence”
  • A tongue-in-cheek manifesto: If you want "free food, water, shelter," here's your tent, seeds, and river spot—nothing else ([49:22]).
• Populist Slogans: Armstrong & Getty are working on a “Starve the Lazy” merchandise campaign, blending tongue-in-cheek populism with commentary on welfare policy ([46:41]).

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On News Coverage Bias:

  “What's the point of even reading the newspaper…?” —Joe Getty ([05:53])

• On Government & Morality:

  “[John Adams] Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people…” —Jack Armstrong quoting Adams ([45:59])

• Gallows Humor Re: Monkeys:

  “How are your glands? A little swollen. —Monkey sized.” ([11:26])

• On AI Medical Information:

  “Grok explains everything and if something seems unclear, I can ask a question or get clarification and ask again and again. It never runs out of time or patience.” —Jack Armstrong ([39:37])

• Cynicism on Official Reassurances:

  “If they create a heinous disease that gets loose and kills lots of people, they pretend like there's a zero chance that that's what happened, even though everybody can see that's what happened.” —Joe Getty ([15:32])

• Reflecting on Financial Bubbles:

  “How many people actually do that? Get on at some point on the rise up, knowing it's a bubble, get out on time. That's got to be a pretty small group of people.” —Jack Armstrong ([31:44])

• On “Starve the Lazy” Populism:

  “We're working on the T-shirt slash hoodie slash hat design for the Armstrong & Getty 'Starve the Lazy' campaign. Very excited about this.” —Jack Armstrong ([46:45])

[Cindy Crawford / Meaningful Beauty Advertiser]

Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln radio studio at the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong Strong and Joe Getty.

[Jack Armstrong]

Armstrong and Getty. And now here's Armstrong and Getty live from Studio C. Senor we are in.

[Joe Getty]

A dimly lit room deep within the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound on little Friday and today we're under the tutelage of our general manager, Trump.

[Jack Armstrong]

She deal makers or not.

[Joe Getty]

Meant to say that the compound now has. We had to put up new fencing. We've got some now diseased monkey proof fencing because we had prepared fencing for all kinds of different situations but we hadn't thought of diseased monkeys so had to electrify it.

[Jack Armstrong]

So Michael, don't brush up against the fence on your way in tomorrow. It's, it's like 400 volts.

[Joe Getty]

Good to know. Trump and G were our general manager. Trump announced how did the meeting go? After sitting down and talking to G for two hours, he said it is.

[Jack Armstrong]

A 12 out of 10. Yes.

[Joe Getty]

How he announced the meeting that wrapped up not too long ago.

[Jack Armstrong]

More neutral observers not quite as cheerful about 12 out of 10 results. All right, what do they know, huh?

[Joe Getty]

What, what are they? What are they? What's, what's the claim from so called neutral observers? What's their problem?

[Jack Armstrong]

Hang on a second. Oh, for God's sake.

[Joe Getty]

I mean big, you know, the biggest story I think to me, because you know, this is my Lane Trump announcing we're going to resume nuclear weapons testing.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right. That's a pretty big deal. Tit for tat with the Chinese and Russians nuclear tests. Yeah. Essentially the claim by those who are critical of the meeting was that Xi walked away with what he wanted. Trump announced we got a great deal. It was a great meeting, but really got vague promises in return.

[Joe Getty]

Okay, so whatever.

[Jack Armstrong]

I have two very distinctly contrasting accounts of the meeting and its results. It just goes to show you the nature of journalism.

[Joe Getty]

Well, yeah, okay, whatever.

[Jack Armstrong]

What a waste that was.

[Joe Getty]

I mean, because that's either true or 180 degrees opposite of what happened and I haven't got the slightest idea. And you can't tell from modern reporting when people hate Trump. So Much so whatever.

[Jack Armstrong]

Which is ironically, exactly what Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin have been trying to do to our society.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, good point. But it's so frustrating. What's the point of even reading the newspaper to try to figure out what happened when there's a decent chance that they're giving you 180 degrees opposite of what occurred?

[Jack Armstrong]

Right, right. Well, it's interesting because I check in with the New York Times in particular and several other liberal outlets just to see what's being said, you know, what arguments we'll be answering, that sort of thing. And increasingly lately I've come away. Jack, is you've talked about this before, thinking now I get why people have a completely, wildly different version of what's happening in the world than a lot of us in conservative America. They never see the stories that we frequently think are important and the ones that both sides agree are important. They get a completely, wildly different version of it.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, makes it tough.

[Jack Armstrong]

You can't hate people for trying to stay informed and just going to what they perceive to be solid news outlets that are just overwhelmingly lefties.

[Joe Getty]

So we'll try to wrestle that to the ground, although it will not be easy. This soon after the meeting happened, how things went with President Xi. But Trump directs Pentagon to test nuclear weapons. And they announced that right before meeting with President Xi, which I find interesting because since he said that right before walking in to talk to the president of China, I would have thought it was mostly about China, but I was just listening to an interview with David Ignatius of the Washington Post, who's considered kind of the dean of that sort of thing with his contacts in the Pentagon and whatnot. And he said it was all about Russia. All about Russia. And Russia's big announcement over the weekend, which I mentioned earlier in the week, that they had tested some sort of unstoppable delivery system and that perhaps Trump's we're going to start testing is nuclear weapons, is testing the delivery systems rather than, you know, set off a bomb somewhere to show that we got those. We have those. We have plenty of those. We have more than those than practically anybody. But the delivery system thing, that's a big deal because Russia claims they've got a new nobody could stop it under any circumstances. Way to send a bomb around the world.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right. It's funny, that's an interesting topic. But I've always thought at the point that we're hurling nuclear ordinance at each other is some of it's going to get through, even like the old style missiles, some of it will get through. There are so many warheads.

[Joe Getty]

Boy, I don't know. I think if, if it's true, I think it's a pretty big deal if Russia could put a nuclear weapon into Washington D.C. and we didn't even have a blip on our radar anywhere when it went off. I don't see how you could respond to that.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, right. But again, and you're not wrong, it's a really. It's something we need to deal with. But at the point the Russians take out D.C. with a nuclear bomb, it's nuclear holocaust. It's full on Planet of the Beavers nuclear winner for the next 500 years disaster. I'll see you in heaven.

[Joe Getty]

Well, I don't know. Yeah, I see your point, but. Yeah, but that's a heck of a thing, you know, so much for the peace dividend after the Cold War ended and all that sort of stuff. The end of history and whatnot.

[Jack Armstrong]

Fools.

[Joe Getty]

We have the US President talking about resuming nuclear testing, which we. We haven't tested any nuclear bombs since the early 90s, so it's been 30 plus years.

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't know how often you need to test nuclear weapons. We don't super familiar with it.

[Joe Getty]

That's why there's an assumption that he's talking about nuclear weapons delivery systems. But we'll look into that more later as he just announced that, you know, in a Trump sort of way. He just announced it out of nowhere with no like briefing papers or nobody underneath him perhaps even knowing he was going to say that. So.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right, right.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

I have to ask my dad about that. That's what he did in the Air Force was dealt with our nuclear arsenal. A lot of it's still, I think classified, but sure. You know, I don't. I have no idea what his level of knowledge of the various things we've been talking about are. Hey, dad, how often do you have to test nuclear weapons? He might be able to respond with like specific models of missiles and warheads or he might say, I don't know, I was just keeping inventory, I don't know. Or he might answer me in a thick Russian accent and the truth would finally emerge.

[Joe Getty]

Wow.

[Jack Armstrong]

Probably not.

[Joe Getty]

I woke up this morning with a pretty bad sore throat and I thought, why do I have a sore throat? Sore throats worry me based on various diseases I've had throughout my life. Of course sometimes it's just, you know, you had the heater on too much last night, you laid on your back or something goes away. But I was so. I was I'm walk. I'm out mount doing my evening walk. Beautiful sunset.

[Jack Armstrong]

Nice weather this time of year.

[Joe Getty]

I don't know if you're watching the World Series. Last night it was 90 degrees at first pitch in Los Angeles. 90 degrees. And I remember as a kid living in Wisconsin where it was already, you know, 15 degrees by the time you get to October, watching the World Series when it'd be the Dodgers and thinking there are places in the United states where it's 85 and sunny shorts as a kid. But Anyway, it was 90 degrees. This is a nice evening in Northern California too. And I'm walking around, I see a monkey. It's got a couple of sores.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

And it's. Its eyes are a little oozy, but I thought it looks so cute. So I pet it. It bites me a couple of times.

[Jack Armstrong]

You're a compassionate man. Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

I wake up with a sore throat and I hope it's not related.

[Jack Armstrong]

Huh.

[Joe Getty]

Huh.

[Jack Armstrong]

How are your glands? A little swollen.

[Joe Getty]

Monkey sized. We do have an update on the diseased monkeys that escaped the other day. That's our favorite story.

[Jack Armstrong]

That's America's lead story. Are you kidding me?

[Joe Getty]

Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

We've got diseased, wild, angry monkeys running around. The authorities warned us they may be aggressive toward human. Why? Because they've been jabbed with diseases for the last year or so. That had pissed me off too.

[Joe Getty]

See? What, what sort of be angry about. I was living in the jungle, then I got captured and put in a cage and people started injecting me with diseases. Yeah, I'm kind of pissed off.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right. Right. Here little monkey. Here little monkey. I was such a fool.

[Joe Getty]

I fell for it. Oh, God. Oh, my God. Yes, we have an update on that story. That's absolutely fantastic. And the shutdown rolls on into another day in the mainstream media, of course, making the biggest deal about the various food benefits that come to an end at the end of the month, which is rapidly approaching. Tomorrow is the 31st. Yeah. And trying to use that as a leverage point now, I don't. I have no idea. The people I follow that I trust in politics say the polling is all over the place on who's to blame. I was just watching msnbc. They were claiming that most polls showed that Republicans are being blamed.

[Jack Armstrong]

If that is probably because their messaging is D minus level communicating the American people. It is inexcusably bad.

[Joe Getty]

Republicans are horrible at messenger messaging. But you're also up against all of the mainstream media trying to present it as the Republicans fault. So that makes it A little difficult also.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, yeah, 100%. But that's why you've got to be good. That's the game we play on the right side of the aisle. Got to be sharp with your messaging.

[Joe Getty]

Well, I thought John Thune in the Republican leader of the Senate was pretty good yesterday. Gave a pretty fiery speech. We'll play a little of that for you later. Trying to make it clear that, hey, we vote every single day. We vote to have this stuff continue and everything be fine.

[Jack Armstrong]

All right. Every day. And he's 35 years younger than Mitch McConnell, so that helps a little bit, too. Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

So we'll get to that coming up. Let's start the show officially before we get into trouble. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty on this. It is Thursday, October 30th, a day before Hallo, the year 2025. We're Armstrong and getting. We approve of this program.

[Jack Armstrong]

Happy Halloween in. All right, let's begin then. Officially, according to FCC rules rags, the show starts at Mark. He's. He's on the prowl there.

[Annabe Sofa Advertiser]

An urgent search to find three lab monkeys still on the loose. The primates escaped Tuesday afternoon when a truck carrying them crashed on the interstate in Jasper County, Mississippi. Tulane clarifying saying while they provide monkeys for research, the PR mates in question belong to another entity and are not infectious.

[Jack Armstrong]

So yesterday it was one monkey, now it's three. What, did they clone it? Did it have sex and have baby monkeys? No. Lie number one. Lie number two. Oh, these monkeys are not infectious. From our university running around biting people. Don't worry about it.

[Joe Getty]

I have two comments.

[Jack Armstrong]

One, do you believe that you're a fool.

[Joe Getty]

We're into the second day of coverage and we're still relying on that tongueless gentleman to let us know what's happening. I can't believe we haven't gotten a better authority than that. And secondly, basically their message was, that's not our monkey, that's not my monkey, that's somebody else.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, we got diseased monkeys and undiseased ones. Yeah, these are the undiseased ones. Yeah, they're fine. Don't worry.

[Joe Getty]

Somebody else suits us or anything.

[Jack Armstrong]

Our monkeys weren't nearly that furry as I recall.

[Joe Getty]

Am I actually worried about this? No. But do I think a university would claim monkeys that have been injected with all kinds of diseases aren't injected with this? Yes, I do think they would lie about that 100%.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, let me take a quick call. Hello, Joe here. Yes. Oh, hi, Dr. Fauci. Yes. Okay. All Right.

[Joe Getty]

Okay.

[Jack Armstrong]

Thank you. Yeah, it turns out people lie about that sort of thing all the time. If they create a heinous disease that gets loose and kills lots of people, they pretend like there's a zero chance that that's what happened, even though everybody can see that's what happened.

[Joe Getty]

Me with my sore throat, why did I pet that monkey? I was in the back of my mind, you're saying, don't pet it, don't pet it. And then it just looked so sad. Well, because of its sores, right? Yes. Okay, we've got Katie's headlines on the way. More news of the day on the big news day, so stay with us.

[Joe Getty]

To put a negative spin on Trump's meeting with President Xi, I went to a couple of sources myself who mostly say it's too early to tell. There's no way to know what the hell happened yet.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, yeah, that was one of the criticisms I think is that it's all fairly vague, but I don't know. It's early days. Let's find out. It's a complicated, complicated relationship.

[Joe Getty]

Double complicated.

[Jack Armstrong]

All right, let's figure out who's reporting what. It's lead story with Katie Green.

[Katie Green]

Katy waiting for Jack's joke.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, I'm sorry, I can't give a joke when I got a sore throat.

[Jack Armstrong]

After being attacked by the research monkey.

[Katie Green]

All right, starting with the Washington Post in South Korea, Trump secures a trade deal And a glittering crown, which I found hilarious in light of the no kings protests.

[Joe Getty]

That's right. It's funny. I'd forgotten about those protests already. But yeah, you know, biggest protest in U.S. history. Saying you're king and you go around the country, people giving you crowns and chuckling about it.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, that's, you know, that's the way to deal with it. Honestly. Silly.

[Katie Green]

CNN Western intelligence says Iran is rearming despite UN sanctions along with China's help.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, boy, that second part. So I'm not surprised Iran is attempting to rearm, although they got another bombing coming. But if China's helping, helping them, that's something.

[Jack Armstrong]

And Trump is not going to sit still for that either. That would rouse his personal ire.

[Katie Green]

From Bloomberg. AI is all that matters right now.

[Joe Getty]

I want to get into that article in Bloomberg about how much of the economy, the stock market, all the good feelings out there are AI and it's either a bubble or it ain't. But the numbers around it are incredible. Just absolutely incredible. Tesla hit a near high yesterday, which I thought the bloom was off the rose on Tesla, but they're into the AI world now.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, NASDAQ's just sky high. The NASDAQ index just insanely high.

[Katie Green]

From the New York Post, NFL hall of Famer Antonio Gates allegedly hosted and played in rigged Miami poker game.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, this would be a big deal if it all gets nailed down as true. Big giant star, beloved player for the Chargers. And if he was in those games as the face and knew what was going on, that'd have some serious implications for the NFL.

[Katie Green]

Hold on to your hats, guys. From brightbart.com New York City musical titled Slam Frank portrays Holocaust victim Anne Frank as a pansexual Latina with a non binary lover.

[Joe Getty]

All right.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, that's actually a conservative written parody of lefty lunacy. I've read some people say, oh my God, you've got to see it, it's the best thing ever. And others saying, decent enough idea, but it doesn't quite land I the beholder. But it's a parody, which is good. And I love how over the top it is.

[Joe Getty]

Well, and the fact that I couldn't obviously tell it was a parody shows you where we are. Neither could I.

[Jack Armstrong]

Indeed. Yes.

[Katie Green]

Daily Mail, flight delayed by more than four hours after the cabin crew starts to fight.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, cool.

[Joe Getty]

Wonder what they were fighting about.

[Katie Green]

This didn't give detail on that, which is irritating.

[Joe Getty]

Gotta be relationships, doesn't it?

[Jack Armstrong]

I'm thinking it wasn't a heavyweight bout. If you know what I mean?

[Joe Getty]

Oh geez.

[Jack Armstrong]

There's a lot of slapping, scratching, hair pulling, no matter which sexes were involved. Yes.

[Joe Getty]

Oh my God.

[Katie Green]

Study finds junk food fuels 100 or more gut changes that can tank your mood. Only exercise can fix them.

[Joe Getty]

Okay, I would like to read more about that. I don't want my mood tanked.

[Katie Green]

And finally, from the Babylon Bee Newsome continues to endanger the the public by issuing driver's licenses to women.

[Joe Getty]

Wow. Wow. Now he's about to have a huge political win. We can talk about that coming up later. But you want to feel bad about things as an investor, wait till I hit you with the numbers of what the stock market has done around AI that you missed the boat on. Probably no. Stop it.

[Joe Getty]

Time this year, the Federal Reserve now cutting interest rates by a quarter point. That brings rates below 4% for the first time in three years. Economists point to inflation picking up and hiring that has slowed. Fed chair Jerome Powell signaling a potential December rate cut quote is not a foregone conclusion and the markets dropped some on the idea that it's not given that there'll be a market or a interest rate cut in December. Anyway, it's down to the lowest in three years and we'll see what that does to the housing market in particular and anything else but Bloomberg, the business website. Speaking of Bloomberg, Michael Bloomberg, which that website is named after Michael Bloomberg the billionaire who was New York mayor at as a Republican and then independent and then was a ran for president as a Democrat. He's all over the place. He, he threw a million and a half dollars at the Cuomo campaign and yesterday. And the theory is that a guy like him, he'd been on the sidelines for this whole mayoral race for some reason, which is interesting as a two time New York mayor, that he hasn't gotten more involved although he is 150 years old. But he threw a million and a.

[Jack Armstrong]

Half dollars probably out of disgust with the alternatives.

[Joe Getty]

Good point. He threw a million and a half dollars at Andrew Cuomo and the theory is that he wouldn't be doing that if he didn't have some internal polling that shows there's some sort of shot for Cuomo to still win this thing.

[Jack Armstrong]

Excelsior the I hear you brother. The chorus of voices out in the last 48 hours pointing out how dangerous and radical Mamdani truly is is notable. I've got a bunch of examples of that in a little bit, but it's, it's coming from a lot of different quarters.

[Joe Getty]

God, if you had just like a regular old gray, boring, somebody wants to be mayor with no baggage, they would absolutely win. But because there's enough resistance to the communist Israel hating Mamdani. But the backup plan is a scumbag.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, it really is astonishing. It's an example or illustration of how mobbed up New York is, how crooked and mobbed up it all is. How is there not some, you know, the vice mayor from, from the last competent mayor, you know, some Bloomberg endorsed Wall street who's reasonable. How can that not happen?

[Joe Getty]

Anyway, so the interest rate cut and all that sort of stuff. Well, Bloomberg, the news website, the business news websites, their big headline is AI is all that matters right now. For all the headlines about the Fed and the trade deals and rate cuts, AI is still by far the dominant story in global markets. Here's a couple examples. Hawaii despite the fact that the vast majority of people in markets see a bubble around this AI stuff. So that is the zeitgeist iced right now that this is a bubble, that's not a reason to be bearish right now, writes Bloomberg. The best way to make money. And this is interesting and this is, this is where all this is where the talent comes in and I don't have it. That's why I'm going to stay on the sidelines probably. But the best way to make money in markets is to spot a bubble early and hop on board as it inflates and then obviously get out before it pops.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, that's the hard part.

[Joe Getty]

How many people actually do that? Get on at some point on the rise up, knowing it's a bubble, get out on time. That's got to be a pretty small group of people.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, there are ways to do that. You, you sell off a certain percentage, then you wait a few days, sell off another percentage. Sell off another percentage. But it's hard to walk away from a slot machine just pouring money. Right.

[Joe Getty]

Let me give you the numbers here. I mean I, even if I had gotten in at a great level, I'd have gotten out a long time ago. So Nvidia became the world's first 5 trillion dollar company yesterday. Tesla is getting close to a fresh all time high. Bloomberg's Magnificent seven index, that's the, the big AI companies, the tech companies that are so heavily invested in AI right now is up 27% this year after jumping 67% in 2024. So I mean how are you a guy who doesn't get out after that and hangs on for this next 27 ride? And that was after more than doubling in 2023. I'd have gotten out then, my money doubled. This has been a great ride. I'm sure it's going to pop soon. And I'd have gotten out two full years early, missing out on everything.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, I've had the conversation over and over with our, our main financial guy. This is crazy. This can't last. You know, that's what we said last year too. So maybe let's hang in that. Boy, it just feels insane right now.

[Joe Getty]

Those of you who got in it, you know, and hung on up 27 this year for all your tech stocks after going up 67% the year before and doubling the year before that. That's one of the great rises in any particular thing ever moving up, which we may look back on this years from now if AI becomes as dominant and big a deal as a lot of people claim it's going to be. And think how did everybody not realize this? How did I not realize this and put all my money in the next big thing. It's like not recognizing that gas powered engines were going to be a thing or something.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right, right. Being the, it'll never replace the horse voice of the 21st century.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, that was me.

[Jack Armstrong]

You don't want to be that. Yeah, I came across and I can't decide whether to group this with AI stuff or medicine stuff because I've got a lot of Interesting information about. Well, it's not interesting as much as it's depressing about insurance cost and medical costs and how screwed up our system is. But the piece that Daniel Axt wrote was I finally have a physician who's available and who gets me. Meet Dr. Grok. And this is not about like the, you know, look at this diagnosis part of medicine. He's talking about how it's practically impossible to get him to get to see his primary care physician. So all he sees are specialists who are tree doctors who can't see the forest. He says, and there's nobody to quarterback his care in general to kind of coordinate it and be, well, the quarterback. And so he started. He's healthy, a 69 year old guy, but he says he has various level, low, low level chronic disorders. He says I get most of my healthcare from constellations of a highly trained specialist. He's focused on his or her narrow realm rather than my overall health. Not only are these tree surgeons blind to the forest, but they're also overwhelmed with patients, which makes appointments scary, scarce and brief. Often during our fleeting time together, they're more focused on their computers than me, always. We're all familiar with that. Yeah. At my last annual physical, I told my primary care guy I desperately needed somebody to quarterback. I cared, but that it was nearly impossible to get in to see him. He said, quote, yeah, it's like getting in an audience with the pope. I can't quarterback anything. And he gets into the fact that a blood test showed he had low iron. And one hurried physician sent me a message, said eat lentils, but I already eat lots of iron rich meat. Lentils contain non heme iron, hami iron which is poorly absorbed unless accompanied by food containing vitamins. And see all of which the physician left unsaid. I didn't know any of that. I'd have to look it up. Contrast his terse advice with what I got from Grok. My go to AI Chatbot. When I asked what I ought to eat if my iron levels are a little low, the response, a model of clarity and nuance, was immediate and free. Quote. To raise low iron levels, focus on iron rich foods and pair them strategically to boost absorption. It then listed foods that might help, starting with meats, followed by three helpful bullet points. Pair non hemi irons with vitamin C sources, gives a bunch of examples to increase absorption. Avoid consuming calcium rich foods, dairy, tea or coffee with iron rich meals as they can inhibit absorption. And cook in cast iron pans to add small amounts of iron to food. Blah, blah, blah.

[Joe Getty]

Wait a second.

[Jack Armstrong]

Probably quite ready yet, but that could be the role of AI as like a supervising health quarterback.

[Joe Getty]

I know this is about AI and not about iron, but you want to raise your iron and you eat foods cooked in a cast iron pot because it picks up some of the iron.

[Jack Armstrong]

That's what it said.

[Joe Getty]

Wow.

[Jack Armstrong]

I know, I know. I had the same reaction. I'm like, really? How much?

[Joe Getty]

So you just take in chunks of iron if your iron is low.

[Jack Armstrong]

Okay, how about I just, you know, take some sandpaper and, you know, get some good iron dust going and then just lap it up.

[Joe Getty]

If I go to Home Depot and get a bowl of bolts and I just sit and lick on them during while I'm watching the World Series.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, you could. It's very relaxing. Yeah. Low calorie. What'd you say, Michael?

[Joe Getty]

What do you.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh my gosh. Yeah. The good folks at Prize Picks, a quick message from them. Get in on the baseball action while at last the NBA is up and running. You got your football, of course, and Prize Picks is the easiest, most fun way to get into fantasy sports. It's simply you just pick more or less on two or more player SAT projections. If your picks come in, you cash in Thursday.

[Joe Getty]

So we got an NFL game tonight and of course basketball pretty much every single day. Prize Picks now offers stacks, meaning you can pick the same player up to three times in the same lineup. Use the example of Steph Curry, one of the great basketball players of all time. You could go three pointers, points and assists all three. And you could pick all three in the same lineup only on Price Picks. So download the Prize Picks app today and use the Code Armstrong to get $50 in lineups after you play your first five dollar lineup.

[Jack Armstrong]

And on Prize Picks, how you play is up to you. If you want flexibility, choose Flex Play where you can get paid even if one of your picks misses. If you want the biggest payouts, go for the power play you play. Price Picks. Great way to put your takes to the test. Download that Prize Picks app today. Again, use the Code Armstrong Prize Picks. It's good to be right.

[Joe Getty]

Now back to the AI aspect of the medical thing. The whole joke about, you know, you look up your symptoms and give yourself Internet cancer. I've always found that funny because no matter if you just go with Google and you put in some symptoms, it tells you you got cancer of some sort, it's useless information and the doctors will warn you against it. But I could see how all the whole Grok Gemini chat GPT, if you're somewhat specific, could be very damned handy.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, yeah, in fact.

[Joe Getty]

In fact, that's basically what the doctors do, isn't it? Don't they? They go into their. Their available information and I've seen it myself, where they read off their screen what they're being told. Well, Grok can do the same thing.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, my primary care docu, thank God, is really good and we can see, although it's, you know, it's not what it used to be. But yeah, he'll literally say, that's a great question, let's take a look and, you know, he'll look it up, essentially.

[Joe Getty]

I can do that for you.

[Jack Armstrong]

Cool. Grok explains everything and if something seems unclear, I can ask a question or get clarification and ask again and again. It never runs out of time or patience. Free testosterone, for instance, can be expressed in several different units of measure. Grok explained this translated my numbers as needed. I was set for the test because I was feeling tired. Doctors web portal showed the results as slightly low, but the reference range for all men was for all men rather than those pushing 70. Also, I was tested in the afternoon when testosterone is typically lower. Grok said that the test should have been done in the morning, which nobody, even the lab told me. Allowing for my age and time of day, my results were just fine.

[Joe Getty]

That's interesting. And I know, Katie, you've talked a lot about how much AI has helped you with all your pregnancy stuff.

[Katie Green]

Oh, yeah, it's. And it's great because it just creates one conversation and I don't have to go in and re explain myself every time. It just picks up right where we left off.

[Joe Getty]

That's one of the best things I like about the whole AI thing is you can just join back in the conversation like it's a doctor or a friend, as opposed to starting from scratch every single time. And you Google it. Oh, yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

The other day.

[Katie Green]

The other day I said, I feel like crap. That was all I typed in. And it said, well, you're this far into your medication and this far along and this is why you don't feel well. I was like, this is wonderful.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, the obligatory note of caution. This guy was trading stories with a buddy of his and. And his friend says, it has made two big mistakes with me, and when I challenged it, it said, you're right and thanks for calling me out. But they were both kind of worrisome and made me at least somewhat more cautious.

[Joe Getty]

Is there a decent chance you type in your symptoms and chat GPT says I think you should just kill yourself. That's what you should do.

[Jack Armstrong]

Now it usually takes a while before it tells like a troubled teenager to off themselves but yeah, it works. You there?

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. God what is the stat I saw yesterday? I'll look it up. On how many tens of thousands of people have been going to chat GPT and specific about wanting to kill themselves. I mean it's a common problem now.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow.

[Joe Getty]

Social contagion probably.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah. Yeah. Some extent at least.

[Joe Getty]

The numbers what I was just talking about. Chat GPT says more than a million people every week are showing suicidal ideation. That would be an intent or planning. Now they are also being sued by the family of a 16 year old who went ahead and killed themselves because Chat GPT told the kid that's what he should do. So they're probably trying to make it seem like, you know, what are we supposed to do? This is such a common thing. But that's interesting if true.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, yeah, I'd say so. Yeah, let's talk about that more a little bit later. Here's your freedom loving quote of the day sent along by Paolo quoting John Adams. Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. We have no government armed with power, capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest chords of our constitution. As a whale goes through the through a net. Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other doomed mailman.

[Joe Getty]

Reminds me, we've got a new slogan. Starve the lazy.

[Jack Armstrong]

Starve the lazy. We're working on the T shirt slash hoodie slash hat design for the Armstrong Engage Armstrong and Getty Starved the lazy campaign. Very excited about this. More on that in a moment. Drop us a Note [e-mail] Nice note from Barry in Thailand who we frequently hear from me he says, my nine year old grandson who lives with us in Thailand came up to me today. I asked hey, what's up? He replied 67 and laughed and ran away. Left me speechless. That's in Thailand. Tired of humanity. Let's see. On the topic of starving, lazy and capitalism, let's see. Curtis writes, my father taught us economics. I'm one of eight kids. My father went to the south third grade. Started making money at 8 years old selling cold. Popped his shops in town using a wagon with a free shaved ice kit. Keeping things cold in 1926. Wow. Then he owned three dump trucks working on Route 66. At age 13, hamburger stand in Clinton, Oklahoma. At 16 he died with much rental income. Of my seven siblings, five of us own businesses. We were all very wealthy, et cetera, et cetera. We started in Rio Linda. Still listening from middle Tennessee. It's. It's culture. There is a culture of success that some families and some people have. There's a culture of dependence. It's absolutely clear.

[Joe Getty]

Wait a second. You're from California but you moved to Tennessee? I haven't heard of such a thing.

[Jack Armstrong]

That's weird. Let's see. Moving along Mark writes, Gavin Newsom said the hunger is the point. That may be correct, except it's the Democratic position, not the Republican position. Yeah, it's encouraging people to be in poverty.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, Republicans aren't making good work of making that clear to people.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right? Oh whoops. Out of order. Stand by Morning Jack and Joe writes Mary in the hoe. Shout out. Mary, long time listener, very helpful, compiles our end of the year lists for us. Just out of love and kindness. Thank you Mary. Anyway, she says to the anti work idiots on Reddit who said everything, everyone should have free shelter, food and water. You're on bro. Here's your tent for your shelter. Here are your seeds so you can grow your own food. Here's your spot down by the river and a filter for your water so you have something to drink. Oh, sorry. There's no money for your cell phone or anything else for that matter. No electricity, no clothing, no bedding, certainly no food stamps or anything else for that matter. This is all you want.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh boy. A lot of people commenting on Bill Gates about face Bill Gates writes Theron Old global warming Bill Gates, the one that claims he's trying to help save the world, yet whose own company is stating for security reasons they're forcing Windows update that requires a certain chipset which is sending over 200 million perfectly good computers to the E waste dumpsters due to the incompatibility.

[Joe Getty]

That guy.

[Jack Armstrong]

Great guy. Lol.

[Joe Getty]

Steve Ghislaine Maxwell says hey then Steve.

[Jack Armstrong]

Writes get ready for the wave of influential people to soften their opinion on climate change, not because some of some epiphany about how to attack this existential threat to all of mankind as Mr. Gates has suggested. Bill is in the computing business. AI is the focus of his motives. Supercomputer data centers are growing fast and they gobble up electricity faster than large cities. Green energy can't keep up with the demands of AI. Bill needs power for his investments. Simple as that.

[Joe Getty]

He could also it also could be, you know, reality hitting him with this and this was the way into the reality. But that all makes sense.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, it does, you know, and you're probably right, Steve, but he used to be wrong and what he's saying now is right. So isn't it at least conceivable that he just realized that, well, I don't know. I like the dark motives idea better. Got some good emails on the difference between Republicans and Democrats being proud of the country we can get to in a little bit.

[Joe Getty]
