Jack Armstrong
Here'S Armstrong and get ready.
Kyle Rickey
Live from Studio C. Say, senor, it's Cry Yay.
Jack Armstrong
And we're in a dimly lit room deep within the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound. And today we're on the tutelage of.
Kyle Rickey
Our general manager, the Pugilists. Former MUA champion Mike Tyson is fighting Rand Paul. From what I understand should be an epic battle. Paul is 0 and 1. You may recall his only other professional fight against his neighbor who resented his lawn clippings.
Jack Armstrong
Oh, it's worse than that. He's fighting Ron Paul.
Kyle Rickey
Wow, that's. That's not human. Barbaric. That's barbaric is right.
Jack Armstrong
Tyson's twice his age. The fight is denied on Netflix. I was really hoping me and both the boys could watch it, but my other boys got to play drums at the high school football game. So he's going to miss an old man either getting beaten up by a younger man or beating up a younger man because, I don't know, whatever it is, it'll be untoward.
Kyle Rickey
You know what the smart money is on. It's always on this sort of thing. Boring. Yeah.
Jack Armstrong
Here's my. One of my predictions. I think it goes one of two ways. I was just listening to an interview with Jim Lampley where if you're a boxer, you know his name. He is like the guy who called like every big fight of my life, practically a legend. But Jim Lampley said he was concerned. He's a. He's friends with Mike Tyson. He said, you know, 60, 60, no matter who you are. But I seem to remember it was at the last time Tyson actually fought, or close to the last time where he fought for a while, and then he just said, nah. And then he just kind of quit. And then he. In the interview after he, see, I just don't have it anymore. I just don't have the kill instinct. I just don't have the, you know, I just, I don't hate the guy. And, And I'd rather be at home pet my tigers or play with my pigeons. I could see him. Either two. Two things will happen. He'll either, like, beat the hell out of Jake Paul, which I would love, because Jake Paul's a Smarmy, self important, annoying presence on earth. So I wouldn't mind seeing that. Or. Or Tyson will kind of get beat around a little bit, get tired and then just say, no, no, no, I'm done. And that'll be very disappointing and boring. So I think you're very close to.
Kyle Rickey
Right. Yeah.
Jack Armstrong
Anyway, yeah, boy, it used to be.
Kyle Rickey
You could hire a young man to beat down an old man. You'd be assured of entertainment. Now you just don't know the modern.
Jack Armstrong
Times we live in. Maybe if he ate the healthier food that RFK Jr. Is going to point.
Kyle Rickey
Us all toward, there's a transition.
Jack Armstrong
He'd be in better condition.
Kyle Rickey
Oh boy.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah. I spent a lot of time in MAGA world yesterday and for a variety of reasons. Friends and acquaintances looking at their various social postings and realizing I'm way out of bounds with my commentary. Speaking for myself about Matt Gaetz and RFK Jr. For that crowd, I mean, they are thrilled, maybe a lot of you are thrilled that Matt Gaetz has been named the nominee for Attorney General and absolutely thrilled that RFK Jr. I mean specifically like that's going to. That's the MAHAB movement, make America healthy again that so many people have on their, you know, whatever you put on your Instagram thing or your Twitter thing or whatever up with your name MAGA and Mahat, that's, that's as popular as MAGA to make America healthy again. And a lot of you are really, really thrilled. I do think two things on that. I keep hearing the mainstream media saying RFK Jr is anti vax and he went out of to. To great lengths yesterday to every time he got a microphone stuck in his face saying I am not anti vax. I'm anti forcing people to get vaccinations, but I'm not anti vaccine. And so I don't know if he is walking it back or just has been miss quoted all this time. So that'll get shaken out.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah, RFK Jr. Is a really interesting case that could be discussed at length. Yes, his, his various ideas and pronouncement pronouncements have A evolved somewhat and B, they've been exaggerated and twisted by people who oppose him in general. And he is up against a great number of incredibly powerful moneyed interests.
Jack Armstrong
No doubt about that.
Kyle Rickey
Doesn't make everything he says true.
Jack Armstrong
There's no doubt about that. There's a lot of people who make a lot of money off things continuing the way they're continuing that don't want anybody rocking the boat. So that is 1000% true. And then on the personal stuff that we've mocked the bear in the park and everything, that's all very, very wacky. But I don't actually care about.
Kyle Rickey
Oh no, no. I just think it's funny in terms.
Jack Armstrong
Of who runs Health and Human Services. So I can't wait to hear him actually answer questions and then we learn real things about his position. So I'm kind of, I don't know what I think about his nomination. I'm still anti Matt Gaetz, but man, a lot of you are excited. I just think it, like Joe kept saying yesterday, the message is right, Justice Department needs some cleaning up and straightening out just maybe a different guy. I've got the most scathing piece written about Matt Gaetz yesterday. Holy crap, is it entertaining?
Kyle Rickey
I think I've seen it and I.
Jack Armstrong
Can attest from a prominent MAGA supporter. I mean, couldn't be a bigger Trump honk. But not a fan of Matt Gaetz. Kevin McCarthy did an interview yesterday. Obviously he's not a big fan of Matt Gaetz, but sweet. And get into all that stuff a little bit later.
Kyle Rickey
Let me speak for myself. I have through careful study and long reflection, concocted a position on the would be appointees and the confirmation process and the whole question of recess appointments and the rest of it, which is fair, I think, even handed and constitutionally sound. I believe it will offend everyone. So stay tuned for that as I single handedly alienate everyone who does or could conceivably listen to this show.
Jack Armstrong
Boy, it's all over the map in terms of like smart people who know about this stuff and their predictions of who can get confirmed to who can't. From five. Oh, they all will to. There are already 30 Republican senators who say no to Matt Gaetz. That's some reporting. But other people say no. They think he'll get through because of Trump's big win. So I don't know.
Kyle Rickey
I don't be willing to wager on that proposition. Heavily. What's that new not predicted.org, what's the one that just got busted? Multi market.
Jack Armstrong
And you would wager that Gates doesn't get through?
Kyle Rickey
Yes, heavily.
Jack Armstrong
And then how do you wager on the fight tonight?
Kyle Rickey
My bet is on. Boring. As I said, you're better than an.
Jack Armstrong
Option either way, win or lose.
Kyle Rickey
I have gotten suckered into so many big fights, pay per view, whatever, through the years.
Jack Armstrong
Real fights.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah, yeah. Well, this is a real fight, kind.
Jack Armstrong
Of, I guess if you get punched in the nose.
Kyle Rickey
I see what you mean if you.
Jack Armstrong
Get punched in the nose, it's a real fight, isn't it? No matter what?
Kyle Rickey
Yeah, yeah, but I know what you mean. It's not like, you know, two men in their prime contesting for a belt or what have you.
Jack Armstrong
I feel like no matter what, if you get punched in the nose and you try to punch someone else in the nose, it's a real fight. I was like, gonna say, oh, who do you want to win? Do you have an opinion on that?
Kyle Rickey
Tyson.
Jack Armstrong
Okay.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah, definitely. For the reasons you've enunciated. Mr. Paul. Jake. Is that his name?
Jack Armstrong
Yeah. Him and his brother strikes me as.
Kyle Rickey
A smug, kind of uber masculine parody of manhood. On the other hand, well. And I just don't fancy watching an old man beaten up.
Jack Armstrong
Some of it is generational, I think. I just don't like young influencer thing. People who are famous for being famous. I'm not a fan of that. But that's the future. Or it's the now, actually.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah. I think if Jake Paul sat down with you, he could explain precisely what he's doing and why he's doing it, and it would make sense and it would annoy me.
Jack Armstrong
Maybe it would annoy me that it exists, but it does. We should start the show officially. Can't wait to get some of the news of the day. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty on. It's already Friday. Yeah, November 15th. So maybe your paycheck showed up on your account. The year 2024. We are Armstrong and Getty, and we approve of this program.
Kyle Rickey
Let's begin then. Officially, according to FCC rules and regulations, the show starts at Mark. And I'll just say this, and I mean it. When George Washington defended his country, he had no idea that he was going to change the world. Because without him, you can imagine what the world would look like. Guess what? We got the second George Washington. Congratulations.
Jack Armstrong
Who was that?
Kyle Rickey
Who was that? That was Rocky Jack. Speaking of pugilists. Sylvester Stallone introducing Trump as the second George Washington.
Jack Armstrong
George Washington and the other founding fathers did know exactly what they were doing. They were changing the world. That it would, if it would work. But you know, that notwithstanding.
Kyle Rickey
Switch now, Rock. Switch now, Jack.
Jack Armstrong
Scotch on the ropes. This is my favorite line from Rocky 1. When. When he gets angry at Burgess Meredith, his coach, and starts yelling at him down the street. I don't know exactly what he said, but very emphatically.
Kyle Rickey
You caught the essence of it.
Colleen Witt
Exactly.
Jack Armstrong
Oh, one more thing on RFK junior before we. Our break the other thing they keep saying in addition to vaccine skeptic, which he's he says not anti vaccine or he's anti vaccine is all the spreading misinformation. Okay, well some of the things he has said or says might be not accurate, but so have you. Every single news host I've heard say he was spreading misinformation. I guarantee freaking to you you spread misinformation.
Kyle Rickey
The one does not justify the other, but it's still a good don't act.
Jack Armstrong
Like he cornered the market, you lying liars.
Kyle Rickey
No kidding.
Jack Armstrong
Pisses me off.
Kyle Rickey
Well said, sir. Bringing the right cross of truth to the fight with the liberal media.
Jack Armstrong
Exactly. With an uppercut to the elderly's chin because he's too slow at his age to move his head. How does mailbag look?
Kyle Rickey
It's good, but it must give way to Clips of the week.

Kyle Rickey
Lessons of this election is that liberals cannot achieve liberal goals, however virtuous, by illiberal means. So you feared the Trump houses. The people on FEMA were fearing the Trump houses like they were fearing people with vicious dogs in their backyard.
Jack Armstrong
Exactly. I have a boy who has a Trump hat on. Donald Trump made a lot of inroads in this election and I wonder why you think that is the economy. The most effective ad that the Trump campaign ran was, you know, Kamala Harris is for they them and Donald Trump is for us.
Kyle Rickey

Oh lord. Avoid that above all else. Here's your freedom loving quote of the day. Tom and SoCal sent this long source unknown, but it's a version of something Lincoln like he used to like to say about wrestling a pig that you can't win. You get all covered with mud and the pig enjoys himself. Roughly. This is arguing with idiots is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are, the bird is going to crap on the board and strut around like it won anyway. That might be even better.
Jack Armstrong
That is better. That's awesome.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah, that's great, Tom. Thanks for sending that along.
Jack Armstrong
Why are you strutting around like that?
Kyle Rickey
Craps on the board again. Hey, stop that mailbag. You can drop us a Note mailbag@armstronghetti.com. oh, I'm glad I remembered. I meant to say this. I wish. I truly wish I had more time to write back. To folks who say a lot of nice things, a lot of intriguing things, share experiences, and that there's so much. But the majority of what you send to us is read, comprehended, and acknowledged. And thank you for reaching out. There we go. Moving along.
Jack Armstrong
Except for the rest of you.
Kyle Rickey
Except you idiots. Shut up. Let's see. Early this week, Jack brought us a Marshallesque study about push ups. Joe, you're supposed to do them during the break. Did you do them? Did you report it on air and I missed it? No, actually, it's funny. I forgot I went to the next room so I wouldn't do them in front of everybody. And honest to God, my left rotator cuff is a little bulky and I got down to the bottom and it said, dude, I will punish you. So I am working up to the full pushup, but I am fully intending, in fact, with my trainer, who Sean used to call Jean Jacques, even though that's not his name. I was working on, like, variations of the same muscles and stuff like that.
Jack Armstrong
Anyway, yes, thanks for asking. Mayo Clinic put out the number of pushups you should be able to do at each age, which is pretty interesting. Maybe we'll talk about that again later.
Kyle Rickey
Michael in Washington says, I finally had time to listen to the Joe Rogan experience with Trump. You guys have my brain programmed to where I hear a ding after they mentioned Hitler. Made me chuckle. Well, yeah, I think that's the purpose of the Hitler ding. Wherever a gratuitous mention of Hitler is inserted, that people should be aware of it. So people can't get away with it.
Jack Armstrong
Right?
Kyle Rickey
Anyway, guys, the other day I heard Congressman Corey Mills define DEI perfectly. He said DEI means didn't earn it. Yeah, that's one of the popular versions of it. Division, exclusion and insurrection is another one that's harder to remember. And then we've got a couple of notes from folks whose family members have disowned them after Trump, after they voted for Trump.
Jack Armstrong
It's so incredibly common. Friends and family. I've heard too many in real life, you know, like, the whole thing. Like, I don't know anybody who's ever been polled. I know, like, 10 people that have had friends or family disown them over the Trump election. It's crazy.

Everybody calm down.

Kennedy already calling for fluoride to be removed from drinking water. And his eyebrow raising headlines over the past year revealing that doctors found a dead worm in his brain.

As many as three years?

30.
Kyle Rickey
13. Well, that's interesting.
Jack Armstrong
3. 0.
Kyle Rickey
So chance in hell?
Jack Armstrong
I don't know. I don't know. Politico's reporting that they. A bunch of people they talk to behind the scenes that think he could get through. So I don't know. I don't have any idea.
Kyle Rickey
Clickbait.
Jack Armstrong
You could be right. You definitely could be right. Trying to see if there's anything else before I want to get to this. The. Oh, Elon. How about Elon Musk met with Iran's UN Ambassador to discuss diffusing Iranian US Tensions. The whole Elon's kind of our co president thing, I thought originally was just a mainstream media hating on Elon thing, but he is, like, involved in everything. He's on the phone call with Zelensky, he's meeting with Iranian ambassadors. I mean, wow. He's going to run a big committee on trying to cut waste.
Kyle Rickey
According to the Zelinsky transcript, his participation in the call was incidental. But his presence there is pretty notable.
Jack Armstrong
How much does it.
Kyle Rickey
How.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, how dental does it have to be? The fact that he was there and played a role at all is amazing. Hmm. Anywho. So I don't know if you know who Ben Donovan is. He is one of the co founders of the Federalists. The Federalists couldn't love Trump more. And they put out a statement, I think, particularly yesterday. I read it on the air about how great a choice Matt Gaetz was for being the wrecking ball that can tear down our awful, awful, deep state Justice Department.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah, I'll say. For the record, I think the Federalist is in the bag to Trump to the point of ridiculousness.
Jack Armstrong
Right. But anyway, Ben Dominic, who founded that thing years ago and now has his own thing, the Transom, if you ever read that, he. He did not beat around the bush. And this is very long, but I picked out my favorite highlights. The title is Matt Gaetz is a vile sex pest. And any senator who votes for him owns that. I realize that we are occasionally given to hyperbole about the untoward nature of politicians, but let me be clear. Matt Gates is a sex trafficking, drug addicted piece of s. Wow.
Kyle Rickey
That'S an opening.
Jack Armstrong
So that's the sort of writing you usually see in a polemic about your feelings about the nominee for an important cabinet position.
Kyle Rickey
On the other hand, one can read it quickly and discern his meaning. Go on, please.
Jack Armstrong
Is a sex trafficking, drug addicted piece of s. He is abhorrent. His eyes are permanently rimmed with the red rings of chemical boosters. In person, he smells like overexposed ax body spray and stale Astro Glide. That would be a sexual lubricant. The fact that he boasted on the floor to multiple colleagues in the House of Representatives of his methods of crushing Viagra and high test Red Bull to maintain his erection through his orgiastic evenings is perhaps the least offensive of his many crimes against womanhood and the Christian faith. That's interesting. So he's looking at it from a he's just not a good person standpoint.
Kyle Rickey
Yes. Oh yeah.
Jack Armstrong
Which I talked about yesterday. You don't have to have like a legally violates the law scandal. You could decide. I just don't want that kind of guy to be calling balls and strikes at the highest level in the Justice Department.
Kyle Rickey
Moral turpitude is the time honored term.
Jack Armstrong
In fact, what I just said is a pretty strong case, I think. I mean, because I. I just said, like we just said, I don't care about RFK Jr. Leaving a dead Bear in the park. I mean, that's a weird prank, but no, it has zero to do with anything as far as I'm concerned. And I don't even think it's a comment on his judgment. It's just.
Kyle Rickey
I don't know, it doesn't think it's funny as hell. It makes me like him more unequivocally so. But we can't get to analysis yet because I saw the Ben Dominic thing. You have to keep going.
Jack Armstrong
But the. You do have to have a moral compass to be the guy who has to make the big decisions at the Justice Department. And I'm not sure Matt Gaetz has a moral compass. Anyway, back to the boasting about this and that, orgiastic evenings, maintaining erections, et cetera. The man has less principles than your average fentanyl. Added. Don't want to mess up this sentence. The man has less principles than your average fentanyl addicted hobo man. I feel like you gotta stop after every sentence.
Kyle Rickey
I mean, that's not many principles.
Ad
That's.
Kyle Rickey
That's just certainly a dearth of principles.
Jack Armstrong
That would be fewer principles than your Most of your friends.
Kyle Rickey
Correct.
Jack Armstrong
The man has less principles than your average fentanyl addicted hobo. He likes them underage and he's not ashamed about it. Matt Gates isn't just your average extreme Florida MAGA man. He's a hypocritical ass with the worst Botox money can buy. Pursuing.
Kyle Rickey
Hey, sometimes you think 30% off and then you realize, oh, that they're using the cut rate Botox. It happens.
Jack Armstrong
Happens. You get what you pay for. You think to yourself, copy it out door. I'll remember next time.
Kyle Rickey
Right.
Jack Armstrong
This whole sentence is good too. He's a hypocritical ass with the worst Botox money can buy. Pursuing an ever thinner nose and higher cheekbones at every opportunity, like a real housewife gone mad for fillers.
Kyle Rickey
Funny. Not entirely relevant.
Jack Armstrong
Again, like, if you don't know Ben Dominic, he's a very serious dude.
Kyle Rickey
He is. And of the devoutly Christian, moral sort of conservative.
Jack Armstrong
Every Republican in Washington has an opinion about Matt Gaetz. And 99% of those opinions are, keep Matt Gaetz away from my wife, daughter, friend, or anyone I care about. He's a walking genital, warts included. As a bonus, if I was merely attempting to count the number of women I know who have had bad experiences with Matt Gates, I would run out of fingers and toes. If you vote for him to be Attorney General of the United States, you don't just need your head examined. You need to be committed to a mental institution. The man is absolutely vile. There are pools of vomit with more to offer the earth than this std riddled testament to the failure of fallen masculinity.
Kyle Rickey
That got Michael's one will echo throughout time.
Jack Armstrong
That got Michael's head shaking. Yeah, just when you think he's probably made his point.
Kyle Rickey
Read that one again.
Jack Armstrong
That's a good writing sentence. The man is absolutely vile. There are pools of vomit with more to offer the earth than this std riddled testament to the failure of fallen masculinity.
Kyle Rickey
Wow.
Jack Armstrong
Again, if you're the sort of person I was reading on Twitter last night who was all excited about all of Trump's choices, Ben Dominic has been supporting Trump at every turn with everything that I've seen. Correct?
Kyle Rickey
Yes. Staunch supporter.
Jack Armstrong
I mean, taking the like, best intentions you could possibly imagine about everything Donald Trump ever says or does.
Kyle Rickey
Right. Likewise, Andrew McCarthy, the brilliant and eloquent writer for National Review, among others, who has been an absolute, just stalwart Trump supporter throughout the law fair, could not be more excoriating about the idea of Gates as ag. Is there more to that?
Jack Armstrong
There's one more thing. There are.
Kyle Rickey
Okay.
Jack Armstrong
I don't know how a pool of vomit would really have anything to offer.
Kyle Rickey
That might be his point.
Jack Armstrong
I guess that is his point.
Kyle Rickey
Grotesquely made, yet effectively.
Jack Armstrong
And then finally to the senators that are trying to weigh whether or not to confirm Matt Gaetz, if they have a degree of independence, any kind of free thought, mindful of the fact that a presidency is four years, be your careers forever, they will reject this choice so emphatically that it sends a very simple, straightforward message. You can be an absolute dirtbag wannabe pimp pounding D pills and caffeine while you film your girlfriend twerking on the gram, or you can be a Republican. The choice is yours. That was quite the sentence, too.
Kyle Rickey
Got this from Glenn in Seattle, and before I launch into it, I would say that dissent is always welcome, 100% because it makes our ideas better and or changes our mind. Let's see. Seems like you're being a little over the top re the Gates nomination. He wrote this before hearing Ben Dominic clearly, but sounding like much of the mainstream media this time, gentlemen. Well, first of all, Glenn, if the mainstream media says it's hotter in the summertime than it is in the winter in the Northern hemisphere, I'm going to agree with the mainstream media. And if you think I'm. I'll speak for myself. So intellectually weak that you can somehow shame me into changing my mind because of that. Well, you know, go to hell. Pound sand. That's a ridiculous argument and completely lacking heft.
Jack Armstrong
It's one of the great rhetorical fallacies that I learned about from some Harvard lecture I watched on YouTube a while back, the. That sort of thing.
Kyle Rickey
But then he gets into more intriguing arguments. Loads of time spent on accusations of moral wrongdoings. No time from you or anyone else on what he might bring to the AG position, whether pro or con. Uh, please don't get sucked into gds. What. What is that? I don't know what that stands for. Uh, without exploring what he might actually do in the ag. A position. He may be an A hole, but he might be ra. You know, Glenn, that last argument is worth considering. Unless the guy was such a repugnant, amoral piece of garbage that. That. Please. No, no. There are plenty of guys who could whoop ass on behalf of Donald J. And the American people who aren't repugnant pieces of garbage.
Jack Armstrong
Probably meant tds, which I seen thrown around a lot. Trump Derangement Syndrome. I'm willing to be somewhat open minded that perhaps the things they've said about Matt Gaetz aren't true. Although there are an awful lot of different sources, including people we know who attest to the fact that they're true. If they are true, then no freaking way I want him to be the Attorney General. A guy like that, fight somebody else. I hate guys like that. They're the worst kind of guy that exists. And I don't. I don't understand how you could be all the things you care about. Trump wise, if you're into restoring Christianity and real manhood and all this different sort of stuff. And before Matt Gaetz. Cause he is the worst kind of that person.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah.
Kyle Rickey
I feel like I've made my point. I'm going to offend more people when I discuss Trump's idea of let's just go with recess appointments. But that can wait.
Jack Armstrong
I'll bet Ben Dominic, as he said, I know more women than I can count on my fingers and toes that have bad stories about Maggie. I'll bet he's so worked up and willing to go so over the top. Because I was pretty over the top. That was over to the top. To the point that I think you hurt your case. Actually.
Kyle Rickey
Disagree. Eloquent.
Jack Armstrong
Delightful. That was. I think it was so over the top because he probably actually knows some women who have had horrific encounters with the scumbag.
Kyle Rickey
Oh, yes.
Jack Armstrong
And is really Angry about the idea of the guy being the Attorney General.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah. More on the news of the day after a moment to thank everyone who made a donation yesterday during the Warrior Foundation Freedom Station annual Give a thon to help fly our ill and injured Marines, soldiers, sailors, home for the holidays. If you did not get a chance to make a tax deductible donation to this incredible foundation, there is still time.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, absolutely. And it's super easy. You just go to warriorfoundation.com it's about flying our heroes home for the holidays.org. just to clarify.org what did I say?
Kyle Rickey
Come.
Jack Armstrong
Did I really? That's horrific.
Kyle Rickey
Just horribly so.
Jack Armstrong
What's the wrong website? Warrior.
Kyle Rickey
Are we not. Do we not have feet of clay, blah, blah, blah.
Jack Armstrong
Something Shakespeare. Warriorfoundation.org is where you go.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah, we've been talking about them for years and years. Really moving the great work they do helping our warriors transitioning from active duty to civilian life. Often terribly injured, ill, ptsd, the rest of it. And they couldn't do it without y'all. Your donation is flying our ill and injured warriors home for the holidays at least. And that's a wonderful, wonderful thing. There's still time to make a donation. Visit warriorfoundation.org Warrior Foundation.org Just on the.
Jack Armstrong
Topic we were on a few seconds ago, I did want to talk about that at length at some point this week. Maybe we'll jam it into the show today. Just the concentrating on having some beliefs slash principles and then making sure I stick to those regardless of who's promoting them. And, you know, it's more work than it ought to be because of just our tendency to get into personalities, which is the way we're designed as Homo sapiens. I've learned recently from reading the book Sapiens. But yeah, have some things you believe in and then if somebody you really like is against that, then you disagree with them. And if somebody you really hate is for the principle you believe in, then all of a sudden you agree with them on this particular instance.
Kyle Rickey
Right? Of course you do.
Jack Armstrong
I think that's more. I think that's more rare than common, don't you?
Kyle Rickey
Yeah, I'd have to think about that. But you're probably right. And I would say that that also relates to the Constitution of the United States, which we'll talk about next hour, but we are sorely in need of.
Jack Armstrong
We got Katie's headlines on the way. Stay here.

I blathered on way too long, Katie, about some sort of ethics or morals or moral compass or something and ate up some of your time. Shocking.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah. No kidding. Yeah. Everybody's giving. What? It's the lead story with Katie Green. Katie, hit it.
Katie Green
Politico. Quote, terrifying Trump's Cabinet picks trigger unease.
Jack Armstrong
I saw Sean Spicer on Mark Halperin's podcast yesterday, and he's a smart guy that tries to, like, report what he believes. He thinks. All five at Trump's People. So we'll get through. Because of Trump's win and the pressure on the Republicans. I don't know. I can't believe.
Kyle Rickey
I wish I had heard that. Yeah, that's. Yeah. I've made my position clear.
Katie Green
USA Today sucks. This headline, Suspect in Lake and Riley slaying goes to trial Friday in Georgia.
Kyle Rickey
You mean it's true as far as it goes?
Katie Green
Well, yeah, but some suspect. No. Illegal immigrant.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah.
Katie Green
That killed her.
Kyle Rickey
Which is who wouldn't have been in the country to kill anyone but for Biden's policy.
Jack Armstrong
I see your point, Katie. The reason we know about this murder. Lots of murders happen, unfortunately, all around the country. They don't end up being a national story. The reason this is a national story is this immigration status. And they left that out. Right? That's a good point.
Kyle Rickey
Yeah.
Katie Green
For the New York Post, Infowars sale to the Onion held up in court as Alex Jones rants that his site has been hijacked.
Jack Armstrong
Is there any significance to this other than just that's ironic or something?
Kyle Rickey
I don't think so. I would like to not hear Alex Jones name again as long as I live.
Katie Green
From the Associated Press. Transgender rights advocates say the election of Trump and his allies marks a major setback.
Jack Armstrong
In what way?
Kyle Rickey
I reject the term transgender rights. And in many cases, I reject the term transgender. It ought to have quotes around it. It is absolutely not an accepted medical nor psychological phenomenon.
Jack Armstrong
All your stories, Katie, being rejected. Them. They're very. They're very wordy.
Katie Green
Also shocked about that. NBC.
Kyle Rickey
Mike, I reject your shock. Go on. What's the next one?
Katie Green
I reject you. Joe. NBC. NBC, Mike Tyson versus Jake Paul, Legendary boxer slaps social media star ahead of fight.
Jack Armstrong
I didn't see that. I haven't heard it yet. We'll play it later. Was that just a. Yes, it was great. It was just to get people excited thing. Yeah, he did bite a man's ear off. So the idea of him losing his temper and slapping somebody's not out of.
Katie Green
Line from business times, man. Dead body found in Planet Fitness tanning bed after three days.
Kyle Rickey
Oh. Oh, that's too much. You're dark enough. Jim, come out of there.
Jack Armstrong
Hope he was wearing those little goggles.
Katie Green
Your meme of the day. It's a picture of Trump while he was serving fries and he so he says, here's some fries to go along with your MC meltdown.
Jack Armstrong
Oh, yeah, I like the one where he was sitting there in the Oval Office talking to Joe Biden and said, did you see me in the garbage truck? That was pretty good, wasn't it?
Katie Green
A lot of comments online about how everybody hadn't seen Biden smile that much.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, yeah, we're gonna talk about that later.
Katie Green
And finally, the Babylon bee efficiency. New DHS Secretary Christy Noem pledges to cut canine workforce by 90%.
Kyle Rickey
Oh, no, no, no, no. Unfortunate.

Podcast Summary: Armstrong & Getty On Demand – "I Will Offend Everyone"
Release Date: November 15, 2024
Host: Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty
Produced by: iHeartPodcasts
In the episode titled "I Will Offend Everyone," hosts Jack Armstrong and Kyle Rickey delve into a series of heated political discussions, controversial nominations, and current events, all while maintaining their signature candid and unfiltered style. The episode, live from Studio C at the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio within the George Washington Broadcast Center, sets the stage for a provocative conversation aimed at sparking debate and challenging conventional viewpoints.
[03:23] Jack Armstrong:
"And today we're on the tutelage of our general manager, the Pugilists. Former MUA champion Mike Tyson is fighting Rand Paul. From what I understand, it should be an epic battle."
Notable Quote:
[04:07] Jack Armstrong:
"I think you're very close to... either Tyson will beat Jake Paul, which I would love, or he'll get beat around and say, 'No, I'm done.' That'll be very disappointing and boring."
The hosts shift focus to political controversies surrounding Matt Gaetz's nomination for Attorney General. They discuss the mixed reactions within the Republican Party and the broader political landscape.
[05:15] Kyle Rickey:
"RFK Jr. is a really interesting case that could be discussed at length. Yes, his various ideas have evolved and been twisted by opponents."
[07:42] Kyle Rickey:
"I think the mainstream media is saying RFK Jr. is anti-vax, but he's clarifying that he's not anti-vaccine, just against forced vaccinations."
[08:59] Jack Armstrong:
"From five... they all will," reflecting uncertainty about Gaetz's confirmation prospects despite over 30 Republican senators reportedly opposing him.
Notable Quote:
[30:05] Jack Armstrong:
"Matt Gaetz is a vile sex pest. Any senator who votes for him owns that."
The discussion turns to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s nomination, focusing on his stance on vaccines and the media's portrayal of his views.
[05:17] Jack Armstrong:
"The mainstream media is misquoting RFK Jr., and he'll either walk back his statements or continue to be misrepresented."
[31:28] Kyle Rickey:
"I don't know... maybe that's his point," referring to RFK Jr.'s controversial actions like leaving a dead bear cub in Central Park.
Hosts critique modern social media influencers like Jake Paul, questioning the quality and impact of their fame.
[10:14] Kyle Rickey:
"My bet is on boring. You're better than an option either way, win or lose."
[10:21] Jack Armstrong:
"Jake's brother strikes me as a smug, kind of uber masculine parody of manhood."
The conversation touches on the dynamics within the MAGA movement, highlighting the support for both Matt Gaetz and RFK Jr., and the internal conflicts that arise from these nominations.
[06:57] Jack Armstrong:
"He's going to get beaten up by a younger man or beating up a younger man... it'll be untoward."
[07:24] Kyle Rickey:
"There are a lot of people who make a lot of money off things continuing the way they're continuing that don't want anybody rocking the boat."
Jack Armstrong and Kyle Rickey analyze the Senate's stance on Matt Gaetz, with comparisons drawn to the current political climate and the influence of powerful interests.
[35:08] Jack Armstrong:
"If you vote for him to be Attorney General of the United States, you don't just need your head examined. You need to be committed to a mental institution."
[35:41] Kyle Rickey:
"Reconciliation is the higher road than revenge."
Ben Dominic, co-founder of The Federalist, delivers an exceptionally harsh critique of Matt Gaetz, labeling him as a "vile sex pest" and condemning his character and suitability for the Attorney General position.
Notable Quote:
[29:09] Ben Dominic (excerpted):
"Matt Gaetz is a vile sex pest. Any senator who votes for him owns that... his eyes are permanently rimmed with the red rings of chemical boosters."
Jack Armstrong and Kyle Rickey vehemently agree with Dominic's assessment, emphasizing Gaetz's lack of moral compass and the negative impact of his potential confirmation.
[33:53] Kyle Rickey:
"That got Michael's head shaking. Yeah, just when you think he's probably made his point."

Alex Jones and Infowars:
Discussions about the sale being held up in court amidst Alex Jones's rants.

The episode includes segments where the hosts interact with their audience, addressing comments and critiques sent via mailbag.
[19:43] Kyle Rickey:
"Here's your freedom loving quote of the day... Arguing with idiots is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are, the bird is going to crap on the board and strut around like it won anyway."
[22:37] Jack Armstrong:
"How does mailbag look?"
The hosts take a stern approach towards some listener comments, reinforcing their commitment to their viewpoints.
