Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Jack Armstrong
Armstrong and Getty. And now here's Armstrong and Getty.
Joe Getty
We'll talk Iran later this hour. According to Iranian official things are moving quickly. Is there a deal or is not a deal? But they got their own news agency over there, you know, totalitarian states. The IRGC has its own news agency, the Tasnim News Agency, and it's mocking Trump for backing down. They even use the term taco in their news report. That is something. God, if somebody is easily butt hurt as Trump, reacting as harshly as he does sometimes the slightest, slightest, I would think he'd bring the thunder against Iran because they're mocking him.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah.
Joe Getty
More on that later.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, boy, it's a real head scratcher. So this isn't, this is just so clear to me what's happening, having studied political movements my entire life. We are losing, we who love America and understand its incredible promise. We're losing to the Marxists, the, the America haters, those who would bring down Western civilization. And I know it sounds alarmist. I actually, believe it or not, I have a fun life. I play golf and I look at birds and stuff like that and I write songs.
Joe Getty
You talk to the birds about neo Marxism, explain it.
Jack Armstrong
They don't listen. But anyway, a number of polls have come out recently, including just an absolutely shocking one on are you proud to be an American? Do you think America is a good country in which the proportion of young people who've answered yes and no has flipped completely. And those numbers are absolutely horrifying. Now, yesterday I was talking to you about how the evildoers have harnessed racism as the great kryptonite, where if they call you racist, you say, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, stop calling me that. I don't want to be racist. Tell me what to do. Tell me what to say. And that's how they take over institutions. And I came across this about Henry Novak, who is the young man in Britain who was stabbed to death. And the police ignored his cries that he'd been stabbed because he had been dishonestly accused of making some sort of racial slander toward a Sikh fellow. And the cops said, you haven't been Stabbed, Shut up. Essentially because he was clearly the evildoer and I thought this was great. By Abigail Anthony While our understanding of the tragedy will deepen as more information emerges, it is indisputable that Henry Novak was a human sacrifice on the altar of anti racism, quote, unquote. What happened to him represents how the people decrying colonization stripped Britain of its values, then successfully implemented a new cultural and legal regime that repositions historical victims as moral superiors to compensate for imagined inherited ancient trauma. Formal reports of misconduct about a marginalized person are ignored as a form of apology for previous oppression. Like we're disproportionately jailing such and such so we can't enforce the law anymore. In part because the alternative approach, maintaining law and order through just punishment would exacerbate statistical discrepancies in crime that undermine celebrate defenses of multiculturalism. So under this new scheme of genetic genetic contrition and ceaseless repentance that is applied exclusively to whites, a racial minority's unsubstantiated complaints in the Henry Novak instance about hypothetical racism bear more importance than an actual stabbing victim's cries for help. Because white males are specifically presumed guilty and conduct that offends a member of a previously discriminated against group somehow re inflicts past wrongs. Despite state issued justifications of unequal racial treatment as suitable retaliation for earlier civilizational wrongs and a remedy for disparate outcomes, perceptions of a two tier system are branded as conspiratorial. So they simultaneously institute a two tiered system then denied exists. Okay, that's Britain. It's happening in the us it's happening fast and it's happening everywhere, primarily in our educational systems where they have our young people. This is Brian Yen.
Joe Getty
It's the thing of fixing racism with more racism, which John Roberts famously said can't work because it can't. You can't fix racism with more racism. That is exactly what that is. Fixing a two tiered system with a two tiered system. I mean, you're claiming there's a two tiered system that's been weighted for whites against blacks forever and you're gonna fix it with a definitely two tiered system.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, or Brits and Muslims or you know, wherever Marxism is taking hold, they just focus on the local grievance and say you're the oppress, you're the oppressor. The oppressor can't have power anymore. We're taking your power away. It's just, it's a technique of capture of institutions I can understand why they try it.
Joe Getty
I'm just amazed that it falls on, you know, heard by welcome ears, welcoming ears so often that you can say to people, well, there are more black people in prison than their percentage in the country. So we need to let certain numbers of black people get away with crimes to try to even it out. And some people hear that and think that makes sense. Yeah.
Sports Commentator
What?
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, I know. Because they don't think it's through. But as that the French fellow wrote yesterday that I was quoting that after the civil rights movement, which was righteous and wonderful, racism or racist became the most radioactive word in the language. And the left cleverly realized, oh my God, we can capture people's fear of being called a racist and make them do whatever we want. If we tell them, if you don't do this, you're a racist Anyway. Here's Brian Yenis of Fox News talking about a delightful candidate for office in New York.
News Reporter
Darielisa Avila Chevalier is running in the Democratic primary for New York's 13th House District by trying to run away from her deleted Twitter account featuring tweets like this photo of her wearing a defund police mask in 2020, captioned, F12SL for F the police. She also reposted tweets calling for abolishing policing prisons and borders entirely.
Joe Getty
Abolishing police in prisons is an insane position to have. I mean, your looney tunes crazy, right?
Jack Armstrong
Here's a little more about her.
News Reporter
The Democratic Socialist is now campaigning on abolishing ICE after posting deleted pro communist and anti American tweets like this quote, I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag. During the 2020 presidential election, she called both candidates rapists, former President Biden a war criminal, and the United States a disgrace. New York Mayor Zoram Mamdani is fundraising for and endorsing his former campaign staffer as he tries to get anti establishment progressives elected.
Joe Getty
How soon can you ship this woman out of the country again? I'll have. Let's have a gofundme. I'm sure we could raise enough money for your plane ticket and probably a home. Get the hell outta here. I agree.
Jack Armstrong
So she has announced over and over and over again she hates the country. She wants to tear down Western civilization. What does Mamdani say?
News Reporter
No, I had not seen those tweets. And what I've heard from her and what I know a lot of others in the district have heard from her is that her views have evolved and that the campaign that she's Running on is reflective of what she's going to be fighting for.
Joe Getty
Brakta Brian Yanes Chevalier attended an anti

Commercial Voiceover

Lingokids Parent
believe that celebrating the loss of anybody's life is okay.
Commercial Voiceover
And that's where I stand. The line.
Jack Armstrong
It is outrageous, it is a horror that this woman is running for office and is endorsed by the mayor of New York City. It's a symptom of how far it's come. They're absolutely barbarians. They're inside the gate. They're in office right now, these America hating Marxists. There's one more thing I wanted to play for you. This is the great philosopher Hannah Arendt, who is a Holocaust survivor and has written brilliantly about evil and mank. And she's talking about the trial and execution of Adolph Eichmann. Hang with it because she gets to her ultimate point.
Joe Getty
This is old timey. It's in black and white. It's so old timey.
Jack Armstrong
The audio is not in black and white, Jack. The audio is the regular audio. It's kind of. Is there an equivalent to black and white audio? I guess it would be back when announcers spoke like this for some reason. I'm sorry, an incredibly serious topic. But here is the great Hannah Arendt.
Hannah Arendt (Philosopher - archival audio)
Eichmann was found guilty on all counts and sentenced to death. He was hanged in May 1962. Before he died, he said, long live Germany. Long live Argentina. Long live Austria. I shall not forget them. He then added calmly, with what he seemed to consider dignity, we all must die. He had misremembered or borrowed a line from a play, apparently unaware of the irony that in the play the speaker is drunk. Even at the end he could not escape the cliche. The court was right to hang him. My quarrel was never with the verdict. It was with the framing, with the political theater that surrounded the trial, with the attempt to turn it into a lesson about the eternal persecution of the Jews, when what it actually revealed was something universal and therefore more terrifying. That ordinary men functioning within ordinary institutions can perpetrate extraordinary evil not by becoming monsters, but by ceasing to think. This is the question Jerusalem left open. Not how do we punish the guilty, but how does an entire civilization produce men for whom obedience replaces conscience? How do we guard against that? Eichmann is dead. But the conditions that made Eichmann possible the Bureaucracy, the language rules, the relief of personal judgment. Those are not gone. They are never far away.
Jack Armstrong
She's right.
Joe Getty
Yeah, I thought that was so good. I watched that several times the other day when I came across it on Twitter. I thought about. I mean, I can use lots of examples, but the people that get so violently angry at my cyber truck. I mean, just, just that it's focusing on the fact that it was, you know, the genocide was anti Semitism and it was about Jews and everything like that. No, no, no, no. It could be all kinds of different things. It's just people. People will get all worked up. Regular people will get worked up to the point of violence or killing you over all kinds of stuff.
Jack Armstrong
Right, right. To my main premise, that the Marxists are winning, particularly among the young people, and that this is a crisis for the US this is. Maybe it's because I had an infection in my finger and I'm taking these powerful antibiotics. That seems to be the most compelling metaphor. But we have an infection that's about to go septic and nobody is. Or not nobody. Not enough people are recognizing it. Now think, you know, the Israel thing's a little complicated, but I've got two different polls for you. Both, I think Gallup. Yeah, both are Gallup polls in 2018, 18 to 34 year olds, sympathies in the Middle east, whether with Israel or with the Palestinians, were 5,921 in favor of Israel, 5,921 in 2018. Now they're 5,323 in the other direction. That's not because Netanyahu is committing a genocide. It's because people learn what they're taught. Listen to this number. Because that you could say, well, Gaza's rough and people are pictures of little kids, blah, blah. Okay, fine. Pride in being an American. As we approach our 250th birthday. Among Republicans, it stayed around 90%. 90 to 92%. Are you extremely proud, very proud, moderately proud, or only a little proud or not proud at all? The percentage of folks who are extremely proud or very proud among Democrats in 25 years. This is from 2001. This is not 1945, as the boys are coming home having beaten the Nazi war machine. No, this is the year 2001. 84% of Democrats said they're extremely proud or very proud of this country. 84%. It's now 36%. Wow. We're losing, folks. We need to fight harder. We need to teach more. We need to be vocal about this being the land of opportunity and human rights. By God, we're losing our young people. End of rant. I'll shut up.
Joe Getty
That is something that is highly troubling.
Jack Armstrong
Independents have gone from 84 to 53, for God's sakes.
Joe Getty
That is wild. Well, then you got to run as a Democrat, realizing that we're an American hating party. If I want to. If I want to win a nomination, yeah, I got to at least know, tip my gap to the American haters if I want to win.
Jack Armstrong
That's wild. Some of it just loathing of Trump. Yeah. But not enough to make what I'm saying less important, I don't think.
Joe Getty
Yeah, that is a troubling story. I'm going to check in on SpaceX, Iran, World cup soccer and a bunch of different things. Stay here.

Last night, after trailing by 29 points, the new York Knicks staged the biggest comeback in NBA Finals history. And on a wild night of partying here in New York City, I have a feeling a lot of future Knick fans will be born in about nine months. Yeah. Yep. Somehow the Knicks pulled off the impossible. I mean, they actually made Larry David look happy.
Joe Getty
Look.

It's amazing. I've never seen that. No one saw this coming. This would be like if Mike Pence being named grand marshal of the Pride Parade. You know what I'm saying? There's something you don't think would happen.
Joe Getty
So speaking of Larry David in the picture, if you've seen it floating around Jerry Seinfeld with his mouth open, which is pretty funny looking Shocked. Somebody posted this yesterday. Seinfeld Episode Year 2026 Jerry gets tickets courtside and brings George who decides. With the Knicks down 20 with 10 minutes left, he leaves the game early to beat the rush out of Madison Square Garden. As the Knicks mount to come back, he tries to get back into the Garden. He waves his ticket, name drops James Dolan, but nothing works and he ends up getting arrested. Meanwhile, Kramer sneaks into the Garden and helps Mike Brown drop the game winning play.

Joe Getty
He got kicked out of an incredibly exclusive golf club this week. The Farms Golf Club. Exclusive private club located in just outside of San Diego.
Jack Armstrong
Probably up La Jolla away. Right.
Joe Getty
Some sort of an incident with a female employee. Anyway, she went to the her bosses and and talked to him and people in golf carts came out to where Phil Mickelson was playing, said, you gotta go right now in the middle of his round, grab your clubs and leave.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, this has been brewing for a little while. I have a feeling the executive board ruled or the legal team got back to the club and said yes, you can get rid of them. And the moment they could, they did. Wow.
Joe Getty
It must have done something awful because you don't want to kick that guy out of your golf club. That's great prestige. What's the latest on the war with Iran or not, it's over.

We just made a great settlement of
Joe Getty
the war with Iran Tonight, President Trump says a deal to end the war in Iran is close. The news follows a day filled with threats as Trump himself warned massive airstrikes were hours away. The president says a deal may be signed within a matter of days with Vice President vance representing the U.S. trump is scheduled to visit Europe next week, meeting leaders from G7 countries. Okay, so how much of any of this is true is very hard to tell. Was Trump actually planning a bombing campaign, like a serious bombing campaign? Well, this is Jennifer Griffin of FOX reporting.
Jennifer Griffin (Fox News Reporter)
Yesterday, Pentagon officials indicated the plan all along was to negotiate with bombs. After two nights of targeting Iranian air defense systems and radar, the president said, quote, discussions had been approved by Iran's leaders. What that means is yet to be determined, though the president has determined, quote, the naval blockade will remain in full force and effect until this transaction is finalized. Time and place of the signing to be announced shortly. Iranian leaders denied reports of an agreement.
Jack Armstrong
Why would you do that? As the Iranian leaders? We don't have an agreement. That'll be the way to get to the agreement. I don't.
Joe Getty
So here's some newer reporting from fox from Alexandria Hoff.
Alexandria Hoff (Fox News Reporter)
The president essentially scheduling a signing this weekend with his people all there he is adding a new level of pressure to Iran. This means no more passing notes, trying to run them up the chain. No more saying, you know, we have to get to the right people. It's either here's the line, sign it or you don't.
Joe Getty
Okay, so that's really interesting. And we'll get to what the deal supposedly is. That's been changing over the last two and a half hours. We've been talking about it and over
Jack Armstrong
sign it or don't. And then what? More scary, scary threats.
Joe Getty
I don't want to say it because then I sound like a putz. I mean, he looks like a putz. I, I sound like a putz if like, maybe this is his final, final, I'm sending J.D. vance. There's going to be a piece of paper. Either you sign it or now that's it. We're bombing you into submission.
Jack Armstrong
Possibly looks like a putz and putz is like a putz. Huh? Am I wrong?
Joe Getty
I'm not wrong. Watts like a putz and talks like a putz.
Jack Armstrong
It's a putz.
Joe Getty
I mean, it could be he, he's just so against. I don't know what it is, the loss of human life on either side or what it is that his hesitancy on this sort of stuff. But maybe he's like.
Jack Armstrong
Or could, could it be that he thought it would be a pushover like Maduro?
Joe Getty
I definitely think it was that. Yeah. In the beginning
Jack Armstrong
everybody was screaming. Remember, this won't be a pushover like Maduro.
Joe Getty
Okay, so this is Alexander Hoff's version from a couple hours ago. And I think I have new information on this about what the deal would be that they would be signing.
Alexandria Hoff (Fox News Reporter)
The framework would extend, as you mentioned, the current ceasefire for 60 days. Axios reporting the deal would provide sanctions relief linked to compliance and would keep the Strait of Hormuz open and toll free. But Iranian state media is now reporting that any terms involving the Strait will be resolved as a regional matter jointly decided between Tehran and Oman. President Trump has consistently said Oman will not be involved in this. So clearly there is still some sorting out in these final terms through all of this.
Joe Getty
Right, so. So Iran reacted to a lot of the US reporting saying that's not true. We didn't agree to that. We didn't agree to this. Then Trump posts on Truth Social couple hours ago. The terms that Iran leaked out to the fake news have nothing to do with the terms that were agreed to. There is no such thing as dealing in good faith with these people. Amazing. Blah, blah, blah, Totally unacceptable. So he says they're lying about what's in the deal, which doesn't seem to be a good augur for whether or not you can trust them on holding up the deal. Clearly this is the latest latest. So this is the newest from CNN citing a U.S. official. New details have emerged about the U.S. iran MOU that that's the memorandum of understanding following Iran's release of their version of the deal that Donald Trump said was not true. Nuclear material will be destroyed and removed. Iran's nuclear program will be dismantled. None of Iran's money to be released. Until this happens straight A Hormuz has to be completely open. No Iran funding of terrorist groups going forward. Now if that's the deal, that's good because the way this is written here, it looks like they don't get any of their money until material is out, nuclear material is out of there, programs dismantled, etc.
Jack Armstrong
All the other, all verifiable and enforceable. Right.
Joe Getty
All the other versions had included them getting a whole bunch of money during a 60 day ceasefire, which obviously would be pathetically, embarrassingly, childishly naive, that they would just spend it on new rockets, new launchers and trying to get a bomb real quick before the 60 days are up.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, yeah, boy, that stuff about these people don't negotiate in good faith. In other news, lava is hot and Hitler was a bit of an anti Semite.
Joe Getty
Come on. In. All caps with an exclamation point. Like he's just really frustrated with that. Yeah, yeah. Ask anybody who worked in the Carter administration or the Reagan administration or the Bush first administration or then the Clinton administration, then the other Bush administration, then Obama, then Biden, you, then Biden, then you again. Ask all of those presidents, including yourself, if they have negotiated area state that's ever served, if they've negotiated in good faith in the past. I don't know. I really, really don't know. I hope these are the details of the latest deal. The only problem I have with that is I don't think there's a chance in hell Iran's are going to agree to that. So if that's the deal, Iran's not going to agree to that.
Jack Armstrong
I would be very pleasantly, very surprised if he got an agreement on those terms. They would immediately try to obfuscate and cheat and delay and that sort of thing because that's what they do. But if it was again verifiable and enforce, and, and he and the next president were willing to bring the hammer down if it's violated. Okay, this is worth working on.
Joe Getty
Well, if.
Jack Armstrong
As long as you know they're a snake when you pick them up, if
Joe Getty
they're making a deal, it's because they are so actually broke that they're about to collapse and they're, and they've realized, despite being nihilists, that we gotta at least say for now we're giving up on the nuclear plan, give them all the material, we'll start again when we get our money and find a better way to hide it or something. I think that's the key for now.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, yeah, precisely. I think you described exactly what their strategy might be. But they could sit them back in desperate enough straights they think, all right, we got to find another way.
Joe Getty
But that would set them back many years, and that might.
Jack Armstrong
That's pro.
Joe Getty
I'm sure that's just the best you can do. Dismantle the whole thing, take all the material. They'd have to start from scratch in a couple of years. That's probably the best anybody can do. It's better than what Obama got out of it.
Jack Armstrong
I think that is excellent analysis.
Joe Getty
Before they get any money. But that's if they agree to this. I think more likely is, I don't know, J.D. vance is going to show up in an empty conference room at a Holiday Inn and Islamabad tomorrow. Where is everybody?
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, there's so many ifs. I'm glad I'm not being charged by the if, because they're all soaking in them in a sea of ifs. Hey, boy, I tell you. Oh, you want to hear something funny?
Joe Getty
Totally unacceptable in all caps. Trump said they better get their. Get their act together and fast. Well, you've said that a few. Few times. 39 times, actually.
Jack Armstrong
Does that count as the 40th? No, no, no. That's right. It was 39 times he announced that we were on the cusp of having a deal. Okay, you want to hear something kind of funny? This is so good. From Andrew Stiles in the Free Beacon. Did you hear what Leslie Stahl said the other day of 60 Minutes fame about the firing of the journalists? First of all, she is 84. Well, she's 84. Even older than Joe Biden. She was interviewed about the half dozen producers and personalities fired along with Scott Pelley. And it's funny, Pelli keeps doing interviews where he says, I had no idea that a firing was even a possibility. You told the new boss in front of everybody that nobody wanted him there, he sucked, and he couldn't do the job. And you didn't think there's like a smallish chance they decide, well, you can't work here anymore. It didn't even occur. He was. Some effing journals. I almost dropped it in that box.
Joe Getty
Let's all.
Jack Armstrong
Effing journalist you are.
Joe Getty
Let's all. No kidding. Let's all try that today and see what percentage of us get to keep our jobs. Will go into our boss and say, man, you suck. I don't want you here.
Jack Armstrong
Right.
Joe Getty
And I am not going to follow any of your orders. Anson, you go first. You go first, Handsome Jack.
Jack Armstrong
You see that Navy SEAL and his beautiful wife over there? I'm gonna walk up to her and squeeze her breasts. Well, dude, the seal is gonna beat the crap out of you. What sign? Scott Pelley.
Joe Getty
What the hell? What the.
Jack Armstrong
Okay, back to Leslie's.
Joe Getty
Leslie Stahl beat the crap out of.
Jack Armstrong
All right, first a word from Incogni and then the Leslie Stahl thing, which is very amusing. Every spam call you get, every scam text, every sketchy email with your name. They're now AI powered, so it's getting worse. But somebody found you and your dad on a data broker site. Like your name, your phone number, hell even your, your address, your email, your kids ages. Oh, it's so bad. It's all searchable and for sale and the scammers are using it. The only, the only strategy is to disappear with Incogni.
Joe Getty
That's what Incogni does. They contact hu hundreds of data brokers, legally force them to remove your information. We're using Incogni. Get our names and info away from these data brokers. They can't spam you if they can't find you.
Jack Armstrong
And right now you can get 60% off an exclusive deal@incogni.com Armstrong it's incogni.com Armstrong take back your privacy. I n C o g n I.com Armstrong One more time. It's super affordable. Incogni.com Armstrong all right, so Leslie Stahl is interviewed about the the few firings there at 60 minutes. They're cleaning house. Oh God, this was awful. She said this was by far the worst experience I've been involved in or even witnessed. What
Joe Getty
haven't you been to, like famines and whatnot?
Jack Armstrong
Leslie's first story on 60 Minutes was about child sex trafficking in Romania after the fall of communism. She visited a family that was trying to sell their 4 year old for $500 to buy a camcorder. But this is worse. The following year she interviewed survivors of Joseph Mengele's twisted human experiments at Auschwitz. But the firing of Scott Peli was worse. And then because Andrew Stiles is really funny, he said. In 2020, she was forced to endure interviews with Rick Wilson and Steve Schmidt, co founders of the Lincoln Project. Pretty funny thing to say.
Joe Getty
Yeah, it is. I'd rather go to the famine.
Jack Armstrong
You interviewed survivors of Dr. Mengele and said this was by far the worst experience I've been involved in or even witnessed. Oh my Lord.
Joe Getty
Wish I remember who it was. I read the other day that in their experience of somebody that like gets around a lot, said in their experience, journalists are the most self important people they've ever come across. Not rock stars, not pro Athletes, not journalists. Actors. Journalists are the most. I'm important to the world and everyone knows it. People on earth.
Jack Armstrong
One more thought on this useless bag of skin.
Joe Getty
Well, that's a little rough.
Jack Armstrong
Last year, Stalin was entered interviewing Yarden Bibas, an Israeli taken hostage by Hamas whose wife and two sons were killed in captivity. It's not entirely clear if Stahl viewed the hostages as victims, giving her. Given her egregious attempts to empathize with the mosque terrorists. You may recall this. When another former hostage, Keith Siegel, described how his captors were beating and starving him. Stahl wondered aloud, perhaps they're depriving you of food because they're also starving. He said, no, I think they starved me. They would often eat in front of me and not offer me food while I was starving.
Orderly Meds Advertiser
That's.
Jack Armstrong
That.
Joe Getty
That is. That is a terrible thing to say.
Jack Armstrong
Go to hell, Leslie. Which will not be nearly as bad as watching Scott Pelly be fired. What a joke.
Joe Getty
Her, she's. She's over the hill. If she could say that enough, not catch it herself in her own mind.
Jack Armstrong
Oh, yeah.
Joe Getty
60 Minutes is known for pretty, pretty, pretty terrible stories.
Jack Armstrong
Was it Scott Pelley himself or who was it who said, this is like the death of a spouse?
Joe Getty
Yeah, that one got a lot of. A lot of pushback.
Jack Armstrong
I want to beat the crap out of you. Signed to anyone who's ever lost a spouse.
Joe Getty
You lost your job. I lost my spouse. And you're saying what? Yeah, that is what you say.
Jack Armstrong
Tens of millions of dollars. Yeah, very similar, Scott. That's how insanely out of touch these people are. Wow.
Joe Getty
I got a question about dancing. Among other things I need to get to.
Jack Armstrong
If I'm one of those trafficked children from Romania, I'm gonna drop her note. So sorry to hear about your suffering, Leslie, and feel bad for you.
Joe Getty
Signed, trafficked Romanian child. That is.
Jack Armstrong
That is.
Joe Getty
Oh, my God. All right, stay tuned.

When Jordan Lucas steps onto the volleyball court, it's always a spot serve.
Joe Getty
Make that an A's at his first try.
Jack Armstrong
Even when he's not technically serving for
Joe Getty
long, set Lucas from blocks to spikes.
Jack Armstrong
Lucas the 22 year old Signature celebrations are his calling card and the cause of millions of social media views.
Joe Getty
So I just came across this, I can't pause the television. I just came across this, this college volleyball player who is the first person that I'm aware of. He's a gay dude and he leans into like being really swishy gay in his like taunting of other players. His, his, his way of in your face. And he's unbelievable volleyball player, like just, just ferocious and he jumps up and he spikes it in their face and then he kind of of puts his hands on his hips and waddles back to the line to serve again, shaking his butt at him and stuff. Just very, very like effeminate gay, like stereotypical. He goes over the top with like, I just dominated you. It's, it's interesting. Nobody's ever done that before. And they, and then on this ABC News Good Morning America, they talked about all the various athletes. Travis Kelsey shoots the arrow every time he gets a first down and people have stuff like that. But this guy's stuff is all very swishy gay and it's gotten tons of attention. It's pretty cool. He's also unbelievable volleyball player.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, well you do you brother. It's an interesting way to go.
Joe Getty
But yeah, it's funny that that's never happened yet. I got a question. Speaking of gay, you know what's funny
Jack Armstrong
is I have this instinctive reaction that, all right, is this now going to be used by the lgbtqia? Plus, minus, over the power of seven folks that I'm supposed to now approve of everything, blah, blah, blah. That whole, the, the plus and the Q and the T, you know, because I've never had any problem with gay people at all. Now I feel like this defensiveness, like I'm trying to be sold something just. I'm speaking from the heart here, right from Joe's ticker.
Joe Getty
Back to you speaking again. I was going to talk about dancing. I saw an ad up there. Serena Williams, she's back in tennis and some ad that she's doing where she was dancing and she's really good dancer. Can you learn to dance if you. Or is it something you just either naturally can do or can't?
Jack Armstrong
I think it's probably like music. You got a set range. If you work real hard, you can get to the top of your range.
Joe Getty
What I probably know by now if I have some talent for it. I've always been, I've, I've danced before, but I always hesitate to because I just don't feel like it's something I could do, but I've wanted to watch. Are there like YouTube videos where I could. I just want to do like just kind of basic. If I end up on a dance floor to wedding or something like that, I can kind of dance around to a pop tune, you know, Surely there
Jack Armstrong
are YouTube videos dancing for bad dancers. Yeah. Because I believe I may be even like eligible for government disability money. I'm such a terrible dancer.
Joe Getty
Like I watch Jimmy Fallon do it all the time. You ever watch Jimmy Fallon dance? He's on flipping believable.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah. Yeah.
Joe Getty
Can you learn anything, like within 100 miles of that? I never know what to do with my feet.
Jack Armstrong
I've got a good friend who's tall, good looking, successful and is a great dancer. And yes, I secretly hate him. Yeah. And I'm like, I can't even imagine.
Joe Getty
Maybe I'm like pole vaulting.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah.
Joe Getty
Give me a poll.
Jack Armstrong
Let's see how this goes.
Joe Getty
Set the bar really low. And I don't mean that as a metaphor. I mean the bar needs.
Jack Armstrong
The only question is what part of me is going to go snap said
Joe Getty
I'll, I should do that. That'd be good posting for the social media. I'll watch some YouTube videos and see if I can. I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll start and see if I improve over time.
Jack Armstrong
Yes.
Joe Getty
Man, if I learn to dance, I might start going to the club. Going to the club on Friday nights and then getting out there.
Jack Armstrong
They would be glad to see you there at the club. Oh yeah, cool. It's Jack. They would say as you walk in

Podcast Host: iHeartPodcasts
In this episode, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty take on some of America’s most pressing political and cultural debates. The hosts focus primarily on the rise of Marxist ideas among American youth, challenges to Western values, shifting attitudes toward patriotism, and developments in US-Iran relations. They also tackle contemporary political figures, changing social attitudes, generational divides, and offer their signature irreverent commentary on recent news—including an extended critique of media figures and a lighter note on dancing and pop culture.

“Mockery & Marxists” epitomizes the Armstrong & Getty brand: cutting, worried analysis of America’s cultural fault lines, dark humor, and wide-ranging takes from international politics to the dance floor. Mixing deep concern about the nation’s future with irreverence, the show is part warning, part catharsis, and thoroughly in their own unapologetic style.
For a full experience—including the hosts’ banter, political rants, and comic relief—Armstrong & Getty remains entertaining and provocative as ever.
