Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln radio studio at the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Jack Armstrong
Armstrong and Getty.
Joe Getty
Here's Armstrong and get it.
Jack Armstrong
So there was good reason to not release the Epstein files because there's a whole bunch mostly unsubstantiated crap in there with all kinds of names tangentially attached to Epstein's name that didn't do anything wrong or even close to anything wrong that now are being, you know, thrown about in. Well, in serious journalistic circles, New York Times, cable news, whatever, and then on the Internet in like, the most irresponsible way possibly could be. Got an example for you later this hour of the sort of things that are in the Epstein files. You won't even believe that anybody even came up with these ideas.
Joe Getty
Right.
Jack Armstrong
Hint. Dismemberment of babies.
Joe Getty
Right.
Jack Armstrong
For pleasure at parties. Which one?
Joe Getty
That leaves. I was gonna say that leaves out the dozens of nude photos in the Epstein files they turned loose, including underage girls and the names of all the victims that were supposed to be redacted. It's the bad thing done badly or it's the wrong thing done badly.
Jack Armstrong
If I didn't present that correctly, there's not dismembering of babies going on at parties for enjoyment.
Joe Getty
Right.
Jack Armstrong
So more on that coming up later.
Joe Getty
Speaking of troubling. It's a gender bending madness update.
Tara Davis Woodhull
So I kept hearing about this thing.
iHeartRadio Promo
Called gender bending madness.
Jack Armstrong
They're loco.
Joe Getty
We're in a brave new world. Yeah. Let's take a moment to dance. Wouldn't that lift everybody's spirits a little bit?
Jack Armstrong
It's a rave up in here.
Joe Getty
Rob Bonta, who is the.
Jack Armstrong
I took Molly. What's Molly? Oh, no. Is Molly what I take with that music? Sure.
Joe Getty
Absolutely. I would take a lot of it. Rob Bont is the attorney general of California. He's an evil man. He's a terrible man, a horrible man. And is suing a San Diego. San Diego children's hospital. Not because it was performing Joseph Mengele style experimental surgeries on confused children, but he's suing them because they've stopped. They're taking the rady children's hospital to court claiming the hospital broke the terms of a merger agreement. Blah, blah, blah.
Jack Armstrong
Well, you're on the wrong side of this. Historically, buddy, you picked bad timing here.
Joe Getty
The whole world, most of the country, is going 100 miles per hour away from mutilating kids who have been convinced by activists they're actually the wrong sex. And he is suing a hospital for stopping. Absolutely terrible. Practically obscene. Speaking of which, the Free Press with some good coverage of a legal first that could change gender medicine. Jack, you referred to this the other day. This 16 year old girl who had depression, anxiety, social phobia and other mental health problems, diagnosed with autism, bounced around various schools and was convinced by activists that the reason for all of her unhappiness is that she was the wrong sex. So at age 15, she cut her hair short, began binding her breasts, switched her name, told people she was transgender, and at the tender age of 16, underwent surgery to remove her breasts. She almost immediately realized, to quote her, she still had all of her same problems. She just didn't have breasts anymore. And she began to realize this is not the right route. I'm a girl.
Jack Armstrong
It is the first D transitioner to take a medical malpractice lawsuit to trial and win a $2 million judgment against the psychologist and plastic surgeon. Both of them, David French reacted to it. New York Times columnist. This is absolutely expected. The facts in many of these cases are truly shocking. The juries are never going to be swayed by these extreme and bespoke ideological justifications for drastic and permanently life altering medical procedures. Can you imagine getting in front of a jury of regular people and start throwing around your mumbo gumbo about why you needed to cut the breasts off a child? I mean, obviously that ain't gonna work. There could be a whole bunch of huge judgments coming down the line, right? I hope so.
Joe Getty
Oh, I would certainly hope so too. The idea that a child can consent to life altering experimental surgery based on a perception that maybe they're the wrong sex is obscene. So anyway, the lawsuit, the successful lawsuit testified that psychologist involved. Einhorn's the psychologist.
Jack Armstrong
I'm glad the psychologist along with the doctor are being held to account on this.
Joe Getty
Yeah, they testified that Einhorn served, that's the psychologist, as an enabler, repeatedly assuring her her mastectomy would greatly improve her well being. The mother testified that this psychologist browbeater into consenting, threatening that she would otherwise commit suicide.
Jack Armstrong
Of course, I've told this story several times, but I'll tell it again in case anybody didn't hear it because I think it's so good. I know a therapist who doesn't believe that there are maybe any, but certainly as many kids that are the wrong gender in their body as they think. And her friends in the therapy world, if a kid comes in and says, I think I'm a boy, it's usually that girls who think they're a boy, they immediately send them to a medical professional. This particular therapist says, well, let's, you know, starts talking about your problems. Why is it, why this. And has talked several out of them, like in one session talked them out of it as opposed to immediately calling the doctor.
Joe Getty
Right, right. It's, it's horrifying. And the fact that self identified transgenderism has dropped by half among adolescents in two years just proves what we've been saying all along. It was, is and always has been a social contagion.
PennyMac Mortgage Ad
That's it.
Joe Getty
It's a, it's a craze. It's impressionable. Kids going along with the crowd, but they're chopping off their body parts in these butcher shops masquerading as children's hospitals. Anyway, here's another story. The Utah, which is looked to generally for sanity, just had a big hearing in their legislature in which the Democrats presented this study of transgenderism and how generally the, you know, the hormones and the so called gender affirming care have, has a history of really helping people with their mental health. But Republicans and people who study this stuff, including the doctors group, do no harm said no this, that the study's been completely discredited. The methodology was terrible. It was biased in several different ways. Nobody takes this study seriously anymore, globally speaking. And I'm reminded of my own sacred concept that the Democrats in Utah didn't bring a crappy study to the legislature because they were keeping the good studies safe for, you know, next week or something like that. Absolutely terrible. And then when the National Review and others went to the people who presented this study and said, hey, do you have any comment on this that people are saying it's completely discredited? Nobody responded. Nobody. And then finally, PBS has got a new documentary coming out, the Librarians. It was released, I guess it was released late last year. Sarah Jessica Parker as executive producer. The film portrays America's librarians as soldiers defending democracy from so called book bans and other attacks on free speech. Viewers are led to believe that schools and libraries are being targeted. Targeted by high. I'm sorry, slow down, Joe. Targeted by hardline conservatives determined to censor content they find too critical of the manosphere of or of the Heritage foundation or of President Trump, because that's what people are taking out of libraries, books that are critical of President Trump. And one of their opening gambits is, oh, it's librarians are first responders in the fight for democracy and our First Amendment rights. The Documentary even has the audacity to chop up a quote that President Dwight D. Eisenhower gave in 1953. He said, don't join the book burners. Don't think you're going to conceal faults by concealing evidence that they ever existed. Don't be afraid to go in your library and read every book. And then they cut it. But the next thing he said was, as long as any document does not offend our own ideas of decency, that should be the only censorship. No porn in libraries. And they go into the rogues gallery of books. Genderqueer. Written by Maya Kobabi, who goes by the pronouns em, ir. The book introduces topics with explicit pictures like breast and vagina removal, gay and lesbian porn, all sorts of sex toys. I'm not going to mention, not to mention sexual acts. The intended audience, children. The American Library association gave the book an award for great graphic novels for teens and a second award for books written for adults that have special appeal to young adults ages 12 through 18. And there are. There are a bunch more of them. No, we don't want porn in libraries, period. You're not a brave crusader for the First Amendment defending pornography for children. The propaganda. I'm quoting now from actually a writer in the Hill who wrote this. I thought it was brave that the Hill publishes the propaganda that ALA is defending is pornographic. As the Connecticut Children's alliance notes, quite quote, one red flag for grooming is exposing the child or young adult to sexual and or age inappropriate conversations. Media and behavior years.
Jack Armstrong
Say, get the porn in the library because nobody's paying attention to what gets put in the library. Then when somebody discovers it's in the library and wants it out, you are a book banner.
Joe Getty
Right, Exactly. Introducing books that have never been considered for libraries. Right. And anybody who says, whoa, whoa, whoa, this brand new radical thing is bad. You call them book banners. Yeah. It is not a book ban for school libraries to choose not to stock back issues of Hustler magazine. Get them somewhere else.
Jack Armstrong
Well, the biggest news out of this update is definitely the first successful suing doctors and psychologists over these trans surgeries. $2 million. There's gotta be a whole bunch of therapists and doctors out there that are thinking, holy crap.
Joe Getty
Right? Well, and if there's a legal fund to help continue these lawsuits and it's legit, let me know where it is. I will generously donate to it. It's gender banding madness, friends.
Jack Armstrong
Okay. Gonna check in on the Olympics a little bit. Got a couple of nuggets for the. I didn't realize the opening ceremonies are Friday night, just a couple of days away and they're in Italy. Oh, the prime. Do they have a president or prime minister? That woman, the stylish woman.
Joe Getty
I really like her prime minister.
Jack Armstrong
I think you're right. Anyway, she gave a heck of a speech.
Joe Getty
They change governments like every three and a half weeks in Italy. Famously.
Jack Armstrong
She gave a heck of a speech the other day about how her a brand of conservative conservatism has worked so well in Italy. Maybe we'll get to that at some point. But anyway, want to talk about the Olympics? And then God, some of the weird stuff in the Epstein files you should hear about because you're going to hear it and you think that can't be true. It's true. It's in the Epstein files. It just doesn't mean that because it's in the Epstein files it actually happened. And I think everybody should understand that. Anyway, stay tuned.
Joe Getty
Armstrong and Getty.

Jack Armstrong
San Francisco hit by earthquakes.
Public Investing Ad
More than 30 of them. The most powerful so far.
Joe Getty
A 4.2 magnitude quake.
Public Investing Ad
Tremors rattling buildings and stores. Bottles falling from the shelves of this 711 in San Ramon, California.
Joe Getty
No injuries reported.
Jack Armstrong
So are we leading up to a big earthquake for the super bowl? Which, if you're not paying attention, is in the Bay area. Thirty earthquakes in the last couple of days. It's going to be like the 89 World Series all over again.
Joe Getty
That would be very bad.
Jack Armstrong
Be bad, but it'd be exciting. Speaking of the super bowl, so here's a reporter walking around asking some of the NFL football players involved in the super bowl if they could participate in the Winter Olympics. What sport they think they would participate in.
Hunter Woodhull
Now, opening night is the time this.
Joe Getty
Week to have some fun. So I got with some of the.
Hunter Woodhull
Players and I asked them, with the Winter Olympics right around the corner, what winter sport do they think they could compete in?
Joe Getty
If I had to choose, it'd probably be bobslev. What is the bobslev?
Jack Armstrong
Skiing. Is that a winter sport? Snowboarding would be fun. I've never done it, but I'd be willing to try it. Give me about a year. I could be really good at curling. Honestly, no, there isn't one. I don't think I'd be good at any Winter Olympic sport. Give me a year.
Joe Getty
I'd be good at what Curling oh, that's funny. I want to hang with him. Yeah, yeah.
Jack Armstrong
We've talked about this before. Like with the Summer Olympics. Similar. At the Winter Olympics, there are things you could. I could do, but do poorly, obviously.
Joe Getty
Sure, yeah. I think that's the answer for most of us. Four man bobsled.
Jack Armstrong
Oh, yeah. Like hell.
Joe Getty
Jump in, duck my head and say, oh, God, oh, God, oh, God, oh, God, oh, God. Until the thing screeches to a halt.
Jack Armstrong
You all push it. I'll bet there's just no way I have the foot speed to just not fall down and have them run away.
Joe Getty
With this sled or run over your head.
Jack Armstrong
So I don't think that's realistic. You got to be like a super fast sprinter and everything, or you'd get. You can't keep up. But curling, anybody could do. But you could do poorly.
Joe Getty
Yeah.
Jack Armstrong
I mean, there are things you absolutely could not do. The downhill. There is nobody, unless you're an expert skier, that could do anything other than crawl down that hill on your hands and knees.
Joe Getty
You couldn't even do that. You would break 15 bones. Oh, you know what I can do? I've. I've cross country skied a little bit and I'm a reasonably good shot. So I could do the biathlon.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah. Or any of the.
Joe Getty
Although not in cross country skiing shape. It'd take me like 20 minutes.
Jack Armstrong
I'd be slow, but I could do it, right.
Joe Getty
Yeah.
Jack Armstrong
Very few of the ice skating things. The thing that you would definitely want to do even less than the downhill would be that big ski jump, Right?
Joe Getty
Oh, yeah, that plays. I could practice for six weeks and then the first jump, I'd panic in midair and start flailing.
Jack Armstrong
Land on your head.
Joe Getty
You know, it'd be funny. I think we've talked about this in Olympiads past because I played hockey and I used to be a pretty good skater, but. So I would go out there dressed in my sparkly I'm probably gay uniform, and start skating around and build up speed and then like crouch, like I'm about to leap, but then straighten up and just keep skating. I would just skate around the rink over and over and over again.
Jack Armstrong
And this is where he's gonna try to turn back. He's turned backwards.
Joe Getty
And then I'd throw my arm up in the air in another effeminate gesture. Skate backwards for a while, then skate forwards for a while, and everybody'd be like, boo, Boo.
Jack Armstrong
They'd all throw roses on the ice. Cause they were so touched by your artistry.
Joe Getty
Man. I would not look good in one of those outfits.
Jack Armstrong
So Lindsey Vaughn, hero of Olympics past, is giving it a try again. She wrecked the other day, blew out her acl, but says she thinks she can compete. I don't know how that's possible. Days later, she is 42. She, she retired five years ago and she's two years into her comeback. And I've seen this happen with a lot of athletes who you get to be late 30s, 40, and you think, you know what, I'm still in pretty decent shape. I think I could do it again. I really miss it. And then they try and usually it just ends in an injury. Yeah, you get injured and then you just don't actually get to play football or baseball or whatever you're going to do. But she's going to give it a go.
Joe Getty
Maybe she's got really good drugs that she can use.
Jack Armstrong
You know, hide the pain.
Joe Getty
Yeah, but, yeah, but the strength. You lose strength if your tendons aren't connected correctly. I hope she doesn't end up like really, really hurting herself.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, I don't, I don't know. I'm no doctor, but everything I've learned just from watching athletes, whenever they tear an acl, it's usually not. You're competing against the best. Days later is usually not what happens.
Joe Getty
Well, and it's not like she's curling. She's plunging down the side of a mountain with unbelievable stress on her knees.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, there's some stuff in the Epstein files that is literally unbelievable, which you shouldn't believe.
Hunter Woodhull
It.
Jack Armstrong
It's unbelievable and it shouldn't be believed. But it's in there and people are sending it around and really upset about it. We'll tell you about it coming up.
Joe Getty
Armstrong and Gettysburg.

The Department of Justice releasing their final batch of files connected to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. New email and 2013 show billionaire Elon Musk at Epstein coordinating a possible visit to the financier's infamous island. Musk asks when the wildest party will be. Emails also show Trump Cabinet Secretary Howard Lutnick coordinating a visit in the Caribbean in 2012. Lutnick claimed to have cut ties with Epstein in 2005, and a note on the file read, some of these individuals are reporting secondhand information and determined some of the tips were not credible.
Jack Armstrong
Now admit it does not look good if you say you cut ties with somebody seven years earlier than when it would looks like you were last corresponding with them. But I still don't believe there's a giant global child pedophile ring going on run by the Jews and the Clintons and the Obamas and the Bushes. I just don't believe that. Including the fact that I don't believe that George H.W. bush was raping babies, then dismembering them. We'll get to that. Yes, you heard me correctly. We'll get to that one in just a moment. Here's a little more from CNN yesterday on the Epstein files. The newly released documents do contain a list compiled last year by the FBI of unproven allegations that President Donald Trump committed sexual assault, including one woman saying he raped her when she was just 13. That same woman sued Trump in 2016 over the claims, but dropped the lawsuit shortly after bringing them. In another section, one of Jeffrey Epstein's victims says Ghislaine Maxwell presented her to Trump at a party. When asked about this, the White House points to a Justice Department statement that the files may include, quote, fake or false submitted images, documents or videos. The files contain all kinds of false and fake stuff. All kinds of stuff. So, for instance, there was a flurry of. I don't know what you would call it, but people, people contacting the FBI, sending emails or whatever with claims about Trump right before the 2020 election.
Joe Getty
Right. And anonymous tips.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, anonymous tips, or like 500 of them in, like the month right before the election. Well, you know what that's all about? That's trying to get that into the public or into the. Whatever. It seems to me that Jeffrey Epstein. So a whole bunch of this stuff with Trump, he got into his own file. So he'd already been caught up in the justice system and knew how it worked. The way they look at all your emails and everything like that, I think maybe he was just trying to get as many different names and stuff into his emails.
Joe Getty
Yeah, yeah.
Public Investing Ad
Okay.
Jack Armstrong
Knowing the way that he could use them or the way they might be used in the future, I don't know about that, but I do know this. Like, I came across this yesterday talking to somebody who was very upset about it, went online, finding out that lots of people are upset about it. Here's one document out of the 3 million that were released last week about George H.W. bush. It's the interview of a purported Epstein victim by the FBI. And it gets into some of the details of what the victim said. And this is some wild stuff. I'd like to add a few other points disclosed by the purported victim. It says in the document, and this is an actual document. You can go to the government website and look it up if you want. While on this yacht that they apparently had discussed earlier, this purported victim witnessed African American males having sex with white blonde females, all of whom were bleeding during intercourse. Okay, fine. He was a victim of a type of ritualistic sacrifice in which his feet were cut with a scimitar, but left no scarring, whatever that means, because there are other documents to talk about cutting the feet off of victims after they raped them. For some reason on the yacht, he witnessed babies being dismembered, their intestines removed, and individuals eating the feces from the intestines. He was also raped by George H.W. bush.
Joe Getty
In this occurrence, this person is plainly psychotic. Or the idea that their wackadoodle anonymous tip would be released, that just. It's crazy.
Jack Armstrong
It. Yeah. So the follow up was on them. They. They could not substantiate anything with the witness. And. And there's tons of these where there's just like. There's just. No, there is follow up, but you can't follow it up because there's nothing else to say, or they're crazy or whatever. I don't know what to say about this. I mean, because I've gone to a whole bunch of the comments on this on the, like, on Twitter, and they look to be from real people, a lot of MAGA people. If you think we live in a world where presidents rape babies and dismember them in like a party atmosphere with lots of people watching, and then it's kept secret. I don't know how you leave your house. Yeah, I mean, I don't even know what to say about that. What level of hopelessness allows you to read that? And your first thought is, well, just belief. You just believe it.
Joe Getty
And I'm part of a group of people who is bravely trying to bring it to light and fight it, I guess. But I mean, I. I find myself wondering, is there any scenario so crazy you'd say, all right, that's too much. George H.W. bush would never engage in that. Or as you were hinting, you could never keep it secret or something that perverse. I mean, is there. Okay, he was feeding people the tigers and filming it and then. And pleasuring himself to the.
Jack Armstrong
That's not really crazier than staging dog.
Joe Getty
Fights and the winner of the dog fight got to eat the baby.
Jack Armstrong
I don't think you can get crazier than raping babies and dismembering than them cutting open their test on intestines and eating the feces. You can't get crazier than that.
Joe Getty
You're Right.
Jack Armstrong
It just would be different versions of.
Joe Getty
But. Right.
Jack Armstrong
I don't know. I don't know. What I. What I'd love to know and is unanswerable is are there a thousand of you out there that believe it or a million or 5 million? I don't have any sense of that.
Joe Getty
And where was that brand of crazy prior to the Internet? What was it doing? What was it saying? Or was it just kind of latent? It never got triggered.
Jack Armstrong
I'll bet it's that. I'll bet you walked around with your kind of delusional thoughts, but they never got fully formed because you didn't run into stuff like this.
Joe Getty
They didn't get reinforced after.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Joe Getty
So they were just kind of in the back of your mind and you tried to suppress them, I'll bet. Yeah. Well, in the Justice Department released the names of dozens of victims and hundreds, I guess, of nude photos which showed young women or possibly teenagers with their faces visible were largely removed after the New York Times began notifying the Justice Department. Nearly 40 unredacted images that appeared to be part of a personal collection showing both nude bodies and the faces of the people portrayed. The people in the photos appeared to be young, though it was unclear whether they were minors or not. Were you gonna play the Todd Blanche audio?
Jack Armstrong
I wanted to get into the Clinton stuff at some point, but. So somebody just. I'm not even gonna mention the name, but somebody's. A number of texts with the so and so's name is in the Epstein files. That doesn't mean anything. Just the fact that your name is on one of the millions of pieces of paper has no meaning whatsoever. That doesn't mean you are in any way part of a global sex ring with children. And. And for some reason, some of you all treat it that way. If somebody's name appeared in the Epstein files, that's all you need to know. Russell Wilson, quarterback Glenn Beck in this text. That's all I need to know. Are you incapable of thinking or do you not want to think? Are you not listening to the whole story here?
Joe Getty
This guy was involved in finance. Virtually everybody involved in finance ran into the guy. The guy was an absolutely super aggressive networker. He. That was his talent networking. So everybody who networked with him wasn't a child rapist. He was a huge fundraiser for causes good and great, especially in New York and Florida. Everybody who attended those fundraisers isn't a child rapist. And they're all in the files, all on a list somewhere. That's why you don't release these things. I mean, there are multiple criminals who I have brushed up against in my life, but, you know, to say Joe Getty appeared on the owl. I almost named the guy. That'd be interesting. People who I thought, you know, they don't seem on the up and up. I'm going to distance myself from them. Turns out they're a crux. Yep, sure enough. But I don't. I don't deserve to have my name in some sort of file because I was at a dinner with them once, or I played golf with them once, or maybe even.
Jack Armstrong
Not even that great a connection. Russell Wilson, the NFL star, if you don't know who he is, was wanting to buy a plane and it belonged to Epstein's company or something like that. I mean, that's the whole thing. Yeah, that's the end of the story.
Joe Getty
Now, we would get together and pull the legs off of live goats and use those goats as drumsticks in ritual drumming while underage girls would dance. But, you know, bloody goat legs aren't against the law, are they? Is there anything but these people won't believe? And why is it so? Why is it so big?
Jack Armstrong
I don't know.
Joe Getty
Gloria Allred is involved, for instance. She only goes like a vampire, where there's flesh, blood to be drained and publicity to be had. She will screw her clients, profit from it and move on.
Jack Armstrong
Now, I did. A friend of mine hit me with this yesterday. He said, well, I do believe, because I were texting about this freaking thing about Bush. And he said, well, I do believe that there were powerful men having sex with underage girls, knowingly. And Epstein was allowed. Managed to keep it quiet. I believe that too. I don't doubt that a bit. What do you. Where are. Where are you on that?
Joe Getty
Well, there were some. Sure, I. I suspect so. Yeah.
Jack Armstrong
But that doesn't mean that anybody who ever brushed up against the name Epstein was involved in pulling babies apart and eating their intestines. That's quite a.
Joe Getty

Now one of the weird things about this Epstein thing from the beginning is which party is trying to benefit from this. So the Democrats are really pushing this and thinking Trump's keeping something secret. Meanwhile, so much of it is being driven by the fact that Republicans have the House and a whole bunch of committees are digging into it. Like this Representative James Comer, who's been trying to get the Clintons to testify about the Epstein stuff. And here's where we are on that now.
Tara Davis Woodhull
Quite the change up from the Clintons. And this is unprecedented. A former president has never been deposed before committee under congressional subpoena. But former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, they will testify in person before the House Oversight Committee in the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.
Jack Armstrong
So are you saying that's not going to happen? It's being reported everywhere as if it's going to happen. You don't think it is?
Joe Getty
Comer said. The Clinton's counsel, quote, has said they agree to terms, but those terms lack clarity yet again and they have provided no dates for their depositions. Comer said he would clarify the terms they are agreeing to. Meanwhile, Clinton spokesman Angel Urenia said the Clintons negotiated in good faith. You did not, she said to Comer on X. But the former president and former secretary of state will be there.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, Mark Halpern's assuming that they will testify and it will be an unprecedented thing. But this is what Mark Halpern wrote in his newsletter, and I think it's kind of interesting. I wonder if Chairman Comer and his council will actually sufficiently prepare for this face off and execute on a plan sophisticated enough to match wits with Bill Clinton. I mean, it's possible, I don't know that this at his current age, can he do the bits of it's possible Bill Clinton has, you know, gets all of his ducks in a row and legally understands it and sits there and says, okay, bring it, man. What do you got to say? Because this is all crap, right?
Joe Getty
Right.
Jack Armstrong
Don't you think there's a possibility of that, like embarrassing the committee?
Joe Getty
I think they will grandstand to yell at him and just use that footage to continue to promote themselves with a.
Jack Armstrong
President, which I don't like that as.
Joe Getty
A precedent because Billy, Jeff and Hillary have both put out a statement saying they'd never been to the island, they have no connection to any illegal activities, they never witnessed any blah blah blah. So they'll just repeat that if the.
Jack Armstrong
Democrats take the House back, and they probably will. Does that re energize the Epstein thing? Like finally, we've got our hands on it?
Joe Getty
Only in terms of bringing Trump down. Trying to bring Trump down because they didn't care about it for years and years and years. They did nothing about it.
Jack Armstrong
This thing may not be over.
Joe Getty
It's over for me. I'm done.

How much he charged you for that?
Jack Armstrong
Big baby man, like 700 last minute.
iHeartRadio Promo
700?
Joe Getty
No, you gotta get 650 back. Let me keep 50 for label. Let me ask you a question though. When the headpiece came off, did it hurt more than any punch you took that night?
Jack Armstrong
It's so funny because I didn't realize it came off, but I felt a draft. Like, I felt like I had like I had like an indoor AC moment. I'm like, nah, I don't think it happened. But then I'm sitting down and my coaches gave me instructions. But he stuttered twice and that's what gave him. He never stuttered. He's like, he looked up like this.
Joe Getty
Like his eyes went.
Jack Armstrong
His eyes said, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh. I said, oh. I said, now if this really would have came up, I'm gonna look at the Jumbotron. Cause the Jumbotron gonna have the replay. Yeah. So when I like this ridiculous. And I said, oh, they got me. I said, what? We gonna run with it? Let's go, baby. And I got, I toasted in the crowd. I said, I get back to work. So I don't think you have any idea what's going on here. We probably should have set that up. That's a guy got punched so hard his toupee fell off in a box.
Joe Getty
MMA fighter.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, he's fighting and he got punched and his toupee flew off. And he didn't realize it at the time, although he felt a bit of a breeze. And then when he went in to talk to his manager in between rounds, his managers look at him like maybe.
Joe Getty
Threw it into the crowd, said, let's get back to work. Yeah, that's the spirit, son.
Jack Armstrong
There you go.
Joe Getty
Beautiful story. So, completely unrelated. I mentioned this.
Jack Armstrong
Unrelated to a boxer who gets punched so hard they're too pay flies off. Okay.
Joe Getty
MMA fighter technically. But yeah. So I mentioned this yesterday. To avoid accusations of AI cheating, college students are turning to AI. And I mentioned that they have these AI tools called Humanizers. So you have your AI write you the essay and then you use these humanizers to make it not so good and to alter text so they don't seem like they were created by AI.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah. So you're basically telling AI, look, I'm a sophomore in high school who's half paying attention and I'm not that good a writer. Sukuk. And you're right in that style, but.
Joe Getty
It'S gone so much farther than that. So now you've got companies and they name a couple that have upgraded their AI detection software aimed to catch writing that's gone through the humanizer.
Jack Armstrong
Okay.
Joe Getty
They've also launched applications that students can use to track their browser activity or writing history so they can prove that they wrote the material. Though some humanizers can now type out text that a user wants to copy and paste in a student's keystroke as an imitation of their handwriting, something, blah, blah, blah. So says this associate professor of education at California State University, Monterey Bay, students are now trying to prove that they're human, even though they might have never, never touched AI ever. So where are we? We're just in a spiral that will never end true. And. And they quote this grad student from Spain who studies AI detection, of all things, at the University of California, San Diego. He said, if we write properly, we get accused of being AI. It's absolutely ridiculous. Long term, I think it's going to be a big problem.
Jack Armstrong
Well, there's only one, there's only one workaround to this. You just got to do the writing in class, there's the only way you're going to do do it.
Joe Getty
All right. So a teaching assistant in a data science course accused this young man of using AI to write a report. He explained to the TA that he has a habit of explaining step by step who how he reasons through a problem which chat GPT is known to do according to a copy messages. And he's tried dumbing it down. Oh, here's the girl I wanted to mention. Her writing was flagged at her college. She showed her revision history, including how she'd written one first by hand in a note book. Her first draft sent screenshots of emails, messages with her professors. How could AI have made any of that up? She asked. I spoke about a cancer diagnosis, blah blah, blah, I'm being depressed and blah blah. How did AI would have come up with that? Look, here's all the proof. And they said, yeah, we still need you to take a writing with integrity class and signed a statement apologizing for you for using AI. And she threw up her hand, said, forget it, I'm out.
Jack Armstrong
Yeah, you're just gonna have to have writing in class. I don't think there's any way around it. If you miss an hour of the segment, get the podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand. We do lots of them.

Classic Armstrong & Getty: irreverent, combative, and exasperated by what they see as cultural and political insanity swirling around issues from child gender transitions to mass conspiracism. They aim to debunk viral nonsense, question media narratives, and highlight the absurdity of overreactions on both the left and right, all while keeping some time for laughs and a bit of sports fun. The episode is dense with skeptical critique, memorable lines, and side-eyed humor—a must-listen for anyone wanting a skeptical, unsparing look at the week’s controversial headlines.
