Main Theme

In this episode, Armstrong & Getty tackle the rapid advancements in AI and technology, delve into workplace and societal impacts (from sweeping Amazon layoffs to shifting DEI norms), reflect on comedic legends and the quirks of luxury living, and riff on fitness trends, government gridlock, and headline news.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Amazon’s Massive Layoffs and AI Investment

Segment Start: [03:03]

• Amazon plans to cut up to 30,000 corporate jobs (about 10% of their corporate workforce) as they shift spending toward AI and automation.

  • Joe (A): Reads from a letter to employees—Amazon frames it as reducing bureaucracy and focusing resources on “our biggest bets and what matters most to our customers.” Translation: fewer humans, more AI. [04:03]
• Personal impact: Jack (C) notes his own son is struggling to find work in Seattle-Tacoma; layoffs worsen an already tough job market. [04:33]

From layoffs to luxury, from satirizing social trends to calling out academic hypocrisy, expect sharp observations, laughter, and a few moments of genuine poignancy (especially in their tribute to comedy legends and talk of veterans).

Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio.

Studio, the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack.

[F]

Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and Getty.

[A]

And now here. Here's Armstrong and getting looming layoffs at.

[C]

Amazon, the tech Giant plans to announce as many as 30,000 corporate job cuts this week.

[A]

That would be roughly 10% of their corporate workforce. It comes as Amazon looks to cut.

[C]

Costs and ramp up spending on artificial intelligence. Whoa. Up to 30,000 corporate jobs at Amazon? Yeah.

[A]

The 14,000 announced today is the first move. The first round.

[C]

Huh. So the way that was presented was they're just. They need to free up money to invest in AI as opposed to AI is like replacing these people or is that what's happening?

[A]

It's. It's the former. The first one. To quote the journal, reductions are the latest cost cutting move for the tech giant, which is seeking to slim down conserve cash, which it will then spend on AI. The planned cuts are expected to amount to roughly 10% of the online giants giant's corporate workforce.

[C]

But did they not need these people?

[A]

Well, according to their letter to employees, the workforce reduction is a way to get even stronger by further reducing bureaucracy, removing layers and shifting resources to ensure we're investing in our biggest bets and what matters most to our customers. Customers, current and future needs. In other words, we're slimming down everywhere but AI.

[C]

Gotcha.

[A]

We're betting big on AI.

[C]

Yeah. As everybody is, which makes you think they know what they're doing.

[A]

Yeah. One of my kids is struggling to find a job in the Seattle Tacoma area and it's. It's already terrible there. This is going to make it even worse anyway.

[C]

And then is AI gonna create more jobs than it eliminated eventually, as most technology throughout history has? I doubt it, but.

[A]

Yeah, I know. I hate to be that guy, but I'm having difficulty picturing it. But, you know, that makes me, you know, latest in a long line of Luddites who lacked imagination. The cotton gin will destroy employment in America, right? Yeah, not so much.

[C]

Yeah. So what's Amazon's getting in on AI though? Are they going to have. They're not going to have their own chatbot or whatever? Bezos isn't it? Is. Isn't. Is he. Or is AI just going to be doing a lot of the Amazon work? Oh.

[A]

Earlier this month, Amazon showed off how investments in robots and AI could help drive down costs, boosting sales without the need from any human workers.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

A robot arm called Blue Jay is expected to enable Amazon to build smaller warehouses in urban areas. So I think they're both going to be investing in AI systems and benefiting from them. Let's see. I'm trying to figure out, because I'm not really familiar. Amazon Chief executive Andy Jassy is been on A years long campaign to cut expenses, the company ramped up spending on AI amid increased competition for its cloud computing business.

[C]

Okay, I was driving to work this morning and I asked Grok in my car. I said, hey, how many pitches and pitchers were there last night? And she said, 609 pitches, 19 pitchers. And how about that Freddie Freeman home run? Wasn't that something? She says to me, and one of the most amazing things to me was like, I didn't say in the World Series game or anything like that. I just said, how many pitches were there last night? She just knows. She, my son gets mad at me when I call her she just because it's got a female voice. There's dad.

[A]

That's right. Didn't I say once a week? I was going to ask you. You realize this is a computer, right?

[C]

But the fact that then she throws in. How about Freeman's home run? That's something. I mean, it's like, it's so weird.

[A]

Yeah, I don't want that.

[C]

Yeah, I hear you.

[A]

That is absolutely poison. And I know that sounds paranoid, but as longtime listeners know, I believe firmly that people are, through Internet connectedness, getting a drug that feels like actual human connectedness but isn't. It's not nourishing them and they're dying of loneliness. This will just make it all the more alluring. They've improved that drug.

[C]

And then speaking of Grok, my brother sent me a picture yesterday and I thought, why am I getting this picture? It's a picture of him and my dad standing out front of where my parents live. And so it's just a nice. My brother went to visit my parents and it's my nearly 90 year old dad and my brother standing in there and all of a sudden they jump up and leap into acrobatics and high fiving and dancing around because it's a Grok video and it's like, what the hell?

[A]

Yeah, it's so weird. Yeah, that's. I've started to play around with that too, but I just, I don't know, it feels weird. Feels like dancing with the devil. Yeah. Has your dad been doing that new fitness craze of primalism, Is that what they call it, where you walk like a dog for fitness?

[C]

Yes. I'm reading up on this and I'll get into it a little bit later. It's. It's basically like if you ever in sports or whatever, they make you do the bear crawl across the football field or something like that.

[A]

I remember it well.

[C]

You know, it's really hard and it uses all kinds of muscles you don't normally use, but everything.

[A]

Because we've been walking erect for a million years.

[C]

But what bothers me is how. Yeah, I know this bothers you too. How everything has to be turned into a craze. It can't just be an idea or a thing. It's got to be a.

[A]

Some people are. No, it's a trend.

[C]

Or it might be a good idea to add this into your workout routine. Everything's got to be a trend and have a name and then like special workout gear and maybe a music video or whatever.

[A]

Shut up.

[C]

Just shut up. Would you shut up? Maybe I got no patience because I was up in the middle of the night watching the world's longest World Series game, but I just don't need any more trends in my life.

[A]

Hey, back to the question of jobs and labor and that sort of thing. Interesting wrinkle on the whole government shutdown thing yesterday as the head guy of the federal workers labor union said, it's time to end it. He said, this week Congress pushed our nation to a fourth week of full government shutdown, an avoidable crisis that is harming families, communities and the very institutions that hold our country together. Quit pretending you just want what's best for your workers. But anyway, both political parties have made their point. There's no clear end in sight today. I'm making mine. It's time to pass a clean continuing resolution and end this shutdown today. No half measures, no gamesmanship. Put every single federal worker back on the job with full back pay today, which is enormous pressure ratcheted up on the Democrats. We'll have to see how it goes.

[C]

Yeah, I saw some headline at a National Review yesterday that some lefty publications are starting to push Democrat. Put pressure on the Democrats to. Yeah, get enough people to vote for the resolution to get it to pass to get the government back open again. So when that happens, I suppose if that has happened, if the Republicans lose the messaging war on the shutdown when they're voting to open the government every day.

[A]

Right.

[C]

You just need, what, six Democrats. And they can only.

[A]

And they get no coverage for it, no real coverage on the news media. So it's amazing they ever win one of these messaging wars. You know, it just occurred to me, I'm thinking this is going to be really devastating for the Chuck Schumer branch of the Democratic Party, kind of the traditionalist old school Democrats. And it occurred to me that the Zoran Mamdani, Andrew Cuomo race is, is a microcosm of this the woke left nutjob crowd versus old corrupt nobody likes him. Democrats like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and company. The only reason the AOC wing is ascendant is because their their opponent sucks. There's got to be a third, you know, incarnation or a third, I don't know Branch lane of the Democratic party that emerges. But quick. I gotta imagine the Josh Shapiro's of the world are holding frantic meetings with I don't know, little Mayor Pete or whomever else. They better get their act together. But quick.

[C]

Probably ought to hit you with this breaking news before we take a break. This is from Bill Malusian who's probably the best reporter on anything immigration in America of Fox breaking According to four senior DHS and Trump administration sources, a mass removal of ICE leadership around the country is underway with up to 12 with up to 12 ICE field office chiefs being removed and reassigned in an effort to increase deport into an effort to increase deportation numbers.

[A]

Ah, they weren't down with the plan.

[C]

I'm told the move is spearheaded by somebody. Somebody or other. So that's interesting. I thought as I was reading it, the breaking news it was going to be maybe we've gone too far. We're starting to get some negative pr. No, no, no no, no. They're removing these people because we ain't going far enough, fast enough. Interesting. We'll be following that.

[A]

And again your headline is the move was spearheaded by somebody or other.

[C]

Well, I don't care. There's something I don't know and it doesn't make any difference, but that is something. They wanted to go farther and faster and make more noise. Yeah, we'll be on that story.

[A]

A quick word from our [e-mail] it's not the Halloween stuff that's scary in October. It's the cyber threats. Every day it seems there's a new way to trick you. Tech scams. Data breach is hard to keep up. That's why this cyber Scaries month you need webroot total protection.

[C]

Yep. So real time antivirus, firewall, network monitoring, a web threat shield. You'll be protected from malware, malware, ransomware phishing scams. Plus their identity protection includes dark web monitoring to see if your information's out there somewhere, floating around. And up to a million dollars in expense reimbursement for stolen funds.

[A]

Yep. Really amazing. All over support and protection. Change your October from cybersecurity to cybersecurity with 60% off Webroot total [e-mail] Armstrong that's 60% off for a limited time, but only when you go to webroot.com armstrong and did we mention it also includes a secure VPN which a lot of folks are interested in these days, so you can't be tracked online. Webroot.com/armstrong God dang it.

[C]

That guy with the horrible looking beard for the Dodgers last night that came in and pitched four innings? Never pitched more than two innings in his whole life in Major League Baseball and four last night to win the game.

[A]

God dang it.

[C]

I was rich.

[A]

Beard comes in for a kicking, but.

[C]

I don't know why you'd grow that unfortunate beard. I I'm wearing a Dodgers hat, but I was rooting for Toronto. We do have a latest workout craze, a latest dating craze, among other things. And then we got to take a little bit look at Trump's trip to Asia and what's probably going to be happening with China later this week in.

[A]

A moment or two. A tribute to one of the funniest women who's ever existed on the planet. Maybe you know her name, maybe you don't. She just passed away and we're both big fans, so we'll do that.

[C]

Cool. All on the way. Stay here.

That's all right. Now.

I said I'd deal with it.

Well, it's my turn now.

[D]

Then.

[A]

I fought the Korean War, you know, I killed four.

[E]

He was in the catering core.

[A]

He used to poison them. That is John Cleese, who, if there is a Mount Rushmore of comedy, should absolutely be one of the guys up there. And Prunella Scales, who, if you're a Brit, you know her. She was in a bunch of really successful TV shows. And stage plays and stuff like that. But she was Sybil Fawlty on Fawlty Towers, which was voted the greatest or named the number one British television show of all time by the British Film Institute a number of years ago, and the best British sitcom of all time by Radio Times.

[C]

Anyway, I remember watching that as a kid with my dad. He liked that show.

[A]

Oh, I laughed until I cried multiple times the first time I saw that series. I watched it many times. I need to watch it again. I've put it aside for a few years so I can enjoy it again. Here's Basil and Sybil one more time. Oh, you won't forget to put some more splits in the bar, would you?

[E]

I don't expect Polly will forget, Basil.

[D]

No.

[A]

Just reminding her, dear.

[E]

Oh, were you?

[A]

I thought so, yes. Really? Well, it sounded like it to me.

[E]

You don't have to worry about Polly.

[A]

Forgetting anything important, Basil.

[C]

Don't I?

[E]

No, you don't.

[A]

Oh, good.

[C]

How splendid.

[E]

No, she doesn't forget things.

[A]

Doesn't she?

[E]

Well, can you remember the last time she did?

[A]

No, I can't. But then my memory isn't very good, you can see.

[E]

Say that again.

[A]

Can I do it? Oh, thank you. I forgot what it was. Basil forgets their anniversary in that episode. Classic.

[C]

So I've asked this question before. Why are British comedies so much smarter than American comedies like, and I always use the example of the Office. The Office started as a British show, was much more sophisticated and nuanced than ours version. Our version is great and I liked it, but theirs was much higher level of sophistication. And why is that?

[A]

I don't know.

[C]

It disappoints me that you have like, you have something as good as the Officer, like faulty towers or whatever. You got to dumb it down if you want it to make it work in America, though. Why?

[A]

I don't. Maybe it's because we're a super giant country and you've got the potential to get an enormous number of viewers, but you got to dumb it down a little bit. I don't know if that argument makes sense, because it would be as true on a smaller scale in Britain. You'd think, I don't know. I don't know. She's brilliant, though. Absolutely brilliant. If you've never watched Fawlty Towers, watch, watch, watch. The one with the. When the Germans come to their seaside hotel, Some of Bayes, Basil's favorite nicknames for his wife included My little piranha fish and my little nest of vipers. And he said, her braying laugh sounded like someone machine gunning a Now that's comedy friends. Anyway, moving along, I thought this was interesting. Partly because none of us can relate to it, I don't think. But an article from Bloomberg that becoming a cleaning person for the super rich is now a solid six figure job and how the reason for it is. When she started they profiled Gina who makes six figures. Uh, she cleaned houses with run of the mill rich person stuff. Porcelain vases, creaky wood tables, plush silk couches. Now she's in homes where the furniture is considered art with prices to match. Uh, super high end, all sorts of different materials. I have to research everything before I even touch it. And then they say if someone's buying a Jean Royer type sofa for a million dollars.

[C]

A million dollar sofa.

[D]

Wow.

[A]

Whatever they're going for, I think they're buying. A part of history says this person is a co founder of a New York based design gallery. Man, I'm people know there's going to be maintenance on a different level.

[C]

I am not Bernie Sanders, but some people have too much money. A million dollar sofa. Yeah, what the hell.

[A]

I know. There's a couple more examples of that. Let's see. Notion that a well appointed home could include an addition $456,000 Wendell Castle chair. That costs more than the median sales price of a single family American home.

[C]

So million dollar couch and a half million dollar chair next to it. And that's gotta be so your friends will know you have it or something. I mean it can't be your own personal enjoyment, I wouldn't think.

[A]

And here's a cabinet in the shape of a rhinoceros by Francois Xavier Lalonde from 1964. Sold for a record breaking $19.4 million. Well, and you did. So you don't want your housekeeper to use the Lemon Pledge on that thing.

[C]

You're right.

[A]

20 million dollar rhino shaped cabinet. Good lord.

[C]

Lemon Pledge.

[A]

Anyway. Oh, we're almost out of time. So Ikea. And this is so clever, knowing that people doom scrolling as they're trying to go to sleep at night or as they get into bed is such a terrible idea. They've introduced a line of miniature beds for your phone. It is a scale model of an IKEA bed. You have to put it together with little tools and then they have little sheets and little, little, you know, comforters and little pillow and you tuck your phone into the bed and it like can charge it and if you leave it in there for seven straight hours, you get coupons to spend at Ikea or something. What?

[C]

I know you don't have kids.

[A]

Tiny little beds.

[C]

You don't have kids, so you're tucking your phone in at night. You sleep tight, little Samsung.

[A]

Sammy oh, that hurt my heart.

[C]

Okay, we got a lot more on the way. If you missed a segment, Podcast Armstrong and Yeti on demand Armstrong and Gettysburg.

According to a new report, millions of Gmail passwords were recently stolen and a massive data breach.

[E]

Yep.

[A]

Millions of users are like, hey, if you know my password, can you remind me what it is? Well, can you go on the dark web and get the passwords that you can't find and you can't reset? I'm sorry. An account already exists for that. I know it does. That's why.

[C]

Oh, that is one of my least favorite things I ever see on a screen. This. This email already has an account. I did. I got an account for this. I kind of maybe remember that. I don't know.

[A]

You've tried too many times to sign in. You are locked out.

[C]

We mentioned one stupid fitness craze. It got a real fitness craze. That is just came across yesterday. It's been around for a while, but I want to talk about it more. Hick. I think it's hick. Is it hick? I'll find it.

[A]

Do tell.

[C]

It's a. It's an acronym. We'll get to that coming up next segment.

[A]

Okay, so a couple of examples of DEI absolute madness and just proof of what Jack and I and James Lindsay and others have been saying for the longest time. The DEI thing, it's a. It's a tool of takeover. It has nothing to do with what it claims it is. Here are a couple examples. This is just great stuff from the editors of the National Review. They're talking about how academics try to have it both ways. They claim to support diversity and Robust debate on campus. Right. But then they exclude any views that challenge the left wing orthodoxy. And now an influential academic publication is abandoning all pretense. The American association of University Professors, who in their very bylaws state that they aim to champion academic freedom, advance shared governance, and organize all faculty to promote education for the common good. Well, their magazine just published an article, seven theses against viewpoint diversity by this lady professor at Johns Hopkins. Wow.

[C]

Just flat out coming out against viewpoint diversity.

[A]

Wow. And she's the president of her university's AAUP chapter, the American association of University Professors. She is. And at Johns Hopkins, which is a prominent, prominent university. So she's a super heavyweight among professors.

[C]

I like John's. I feel like Hopkins is a bit.

[A]

Much anyway, so there's been plenty of criticism of her article. But in an attempt to defend the article, the AAUP responded with the following quote. Fascism generally doesn't do great under peer review. But perhaps it's the intellectual values of academia, which emphasizes critical inquiry and challenges traditional norms that may be inherently less appealing to those with a more conservative worldview. In other words, academia skews way left because fascism doesn't survive intellectual scrutiny. So they're saying anyone who isn't sufficiently progressive and woke is a Nazi who needs to be ejected from higher education, as the National Review guys say. Could there be a more stark confirmation of the public's perception of universities as ideological hubs unaware of their own internal, you know, one sidedness? They use a lot of fancy words, but it is absolutely stunning coming out and saying, no, we don't have intellectual diversity because anybody who doesn't agree with us is a fascist.

[C]

Yeah, I butted up against this fairly recently in a way I don't want to get into, but the crowd that actually equates the term conservative with something incredibly evil, like it's not a political philosophy that's always existed and always will exist and needs to exist that's in tension with, you know, the other side, whatever you want to call it. It's just, it's flat out evil and, and should be given no air whatsoever. Which is nuts.

[A]

Yeah, it is. It is divorced from all reality, all wisdom.

[C]

I would never say experience. Everything should be to the right forever and never looked at in any other way. I think that'd be. It makes you a weird sort of person.

[A]

Yeah, it's an aspect of radical leftism and, and revolutionary movements in general. They are utterly intolerant of dissent. I mean, that's kind of common.

[C]

How do you ever come to the conclusion how do you ever can come to the conclusion though, maybe it's just the way I'm built, that you are right about everything?

[A]

Always right. Always.

[C]

How do you get that way?

[A]

I don't know. I don't know. And the idea that, I mean the idea that there is a Marxist professor who believes everything to the right of Marxism is fascism. The fact that there's a professor who believes that, I think, all right, you know, that's fine, takes all kinds. But the idea that there's nothing but that on American universities or those who are not that are terrified to even speak, that's. I mean folks, that's a serious, serious problem. Yeah, and there's that. Now they're just saying it openly. The lead organization for professors saying, no, we don't want diversity of opinion because you're fascists. Anyway, on a much, much lighter note, Real Clear Politics with an article out lately about how Biden's Secret Service was so steeped in diversity, equity and inclusion DEI practices that it could hardly function. Boy, did we see any examples of that during Biden's reign. I don't know. Teenage or 20 year old jackass ne' er do wells getting clear shots at the President for instance. Anyway, Real Clear Politics noted the former Secret Service director Kimberly Cheadle had pushed an initiative under Biden, quote, to make the federal government a DEI model for the nation. So that lady who's gonna lead the Secret Service one the whole federal government to be a model of dei, which means more radical progressives. It's not diversity, it's more progressives. Anyway, she resigned from her post in July 24 after being unable or unwilling to answer questions from lawmakers on how the agency failed to prevent the assassination attempt against Trump as he spoke in Butler, Pennsylvania. That we all remember. And keeping in mind Real Clear Politics is a pretty down the middle, ish, typical, you know, slightly left journalism outfit. They offered further insight into the DEI push at the agency during Biden's years, highlighting a reported overweight female agent who is also a plus sized model. And I read from RealClearPolitics. Under Cheadle's leadership, DEI had become so normalized that an overweight female agent who never passed her physical fitness tests was not only retained on the staff, she was allowed to moonlight as a model. The agent who was featured in a magazine profile, traded on her job in federal law enforcement and hinted at her Secret Service position in a photo shoot. Labeled undercover but never underdressed, the female agent who bills herself as a nationally published curve model plus size, fashion and fitness influencer and body positivity advocate, Australia.

[C]

I feel like even if she could do the physical fitness stuff, that's not the sort of person you want as a Secret Service agent who's a model influencer type. That just seems like a weird personality type to be in the Secret Service.

[A]

What other side hustles are allowed for Secret Service agents?

[C]

Yeah, could you. I mean, a strip club dj or is there any limit to the sort of.

[A]

Right. Could you write, like angry editorials for, I don't know, Breitbart or something like that? I don't know. I don't know. Anyway, here's a little more the. The gal, the big gal who never passed her test at all, was assigned to protect Kamala Harris's stepdaughter, Ella Emhoff in New York. After several failed attempts to pass a physical fitness test, the agent was placed in the special Services division, which handles support functions for the agency, including the maintenance of the armored vehicle fleet and the screening of mail and packages for the White House complex. According to four sources in the Secret Service community.

[C]

You know, there'd be so many people that want those jobs in the Secret. There'd be so many candidates. And you go ahead and let somebody who can't pass the physical fitness test be on the team. I mean, that's so weak.

[A]

Right?

[C]

Next. Right, you got two shots. Next. Sorry. You can't do all the push ups or setups or whatever you had to do.

[A]

Go back to being a nationally published curve model and influencer and body positivity activist. Then they go into several other scandals during the Biden years. But you get the idea. DEI is insidious. It's a tool of Marxist takeover, and it devalues every person of color or minority or woman or whatever who gets a gig because they're suspected of being a DEI hire. It's awful. End it everywhere now. Ready? Three, two, one. End it.

[C]

I'm mad about something in the news, so let's do something good. First, want to tell you about how much we're happy to be once again part of the whole annual Warrior Foundation Freedom Station giveathon, which is coming up on Thursday, November 6th. That's this next Thursday.

[A]

Yeah. The Giveathon is going to be live for folks in the San Diego area at Freedom Station 3, a beautiful new transitional housing community made possible by the sport of folks like you. Where warriors find hope, healing and home.

[C]

Those battling post traumatic stress, traumatic brain injuries and the challenges of transitioning to civil life civilian life. Sorry. And doing the whole home for the holidays thing where they fly warriors home so they can be in their own bed and be with their family on the holidays.

[A]

Yep. Everyone deserves to be with the ones they love on the holidays. Especially those who've sacrificed so much for our country. And your tax deductible donation is more than a gift.

If you've taken any news in video of any kind on the Internet or on tv, whatever.

Dude has a two year old daughter and a pregnant wife.

[A]

Oh Lord.

[C]

We shouldn't be enjoying the wow, look how fast that motorcycle's going. Part of it. And I don't like that. It's. It rubs me the wrong way.

Ohtani on a center cut fastball for.

[C]

Swung intelligent Jo5 to 5.

[A]

I've been.

[C]

Rooting for Toronto and I thought they were going to win that game. Little did I know in the sixth inning when Toronto went ahead, that we had like another four hours of baseball to go. And I watched the whole thing. But sh. Otani with a couple of home runs. Then they walked him five times because he was so incredibly unbelievable last night. Got on base nine times.

[A]

That's got to be the all time.

[C]

It is the all time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[C]

It's a well. And no, nobody ever had free multi base hits before because he went double home run, double home run in a game. Nobody had ever done that before.

[A]

I'd have walked him too, after that.

[C]

Yeah, it's just incredible. God, I thought the throw to get Freddie Freeman out was going to be the highlight of the game. Was one of the best throws I've ever seen from an outfielder. Was so freaking cool.

[A]

But final, final note for me, that bizarro incident involving the umpire calling a strike on a ball, that was not a strike and nobody heard him. And one of the. One of the runners got tagged out because he thought it was walking. He's walking a second base. I mean, that could have turned the tide and saved everybody about six hours of their life. That was. That was awful. Terrible.

[C]

My relationship with sports has always been tough because there are times in my life where I watch way too much sports and a waste of my life. I haven't watched hardly any sports in like the last dozen years since I had kids. But I watched that whole game last night that was as enjoyable as anything I've done. And I don't know how long from a pure entertainment standpoint, I just freaking loved it.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Bases loaded. You bring in Kershaw in the last week of his hall of Fame career because he's retiring. You bring him in, bases loaded in the 12th and he gets out of it. I mean, that is some seriously cool baseball script.

[A]

You'd say that's too much. Yeah, I gotta think. A lot of people that tried tape in the game and want to watch this morning, it cut off.

[C]

Right. Worried about that myself because I was behind for a lot of the game. And when it went into extra knights, I said, oh, came across this yesterday. So first of all, we had this workout craze. People are walking like dogs and getting in shape or whatever.

[B]

You need to be more like a dog.

[C]

Something to do with the gym where you do the bear crawl or the dog walk or the kitty jump or something, and it's good for your legs. But.

[A]

Hillary, a big fan of that workout.

[C]

And then you have to make that, that noise.

[A]

Every time I do the bear crawl, I look at my coach and I go, I have never felt cooler than.

[C]

I did right now.

[A]

No loss of dignity here. Right?

[C]

But I know we've talked about this before. I just had never seen the acronym. I guess I came across it yesterday and somebody saying I'm super into H I I T in all caps. Hiit.

[D]

Yeah, that's what I do.

[C]

You. That's what you do is the, the high intensity interval training, which I've done a lot of reading about, that is supposed to be biologically so good for us. It's just the way we're built, which makes sense that we were built to like kind of walk along the Serengeti there in Africa and all of a sudden there's an animal.

[A]

Run as fast as we can with.

[C]

Our spirit to get it, then walk for a while and it just seems like the way we're built. And so that's. You exercise at maximum or near maximum effort for a short period, typically 20 to 90 seconds. Then you rest or do low intensity movement for a recovery period. And then you repeat that cycle multiple times. It can be sprinting or biking or whatever it. Swimming, whatever the heck it is you want to do.

[A]

But a bunch of different stuff too.

[C]

I. As I've read, there's all kinds of stuff that it's supposedly help with the brain too, that it's really beneficial for the brain, which I worry more about than my body. Maybe it's because my body is doing okay and my brain is failing me, but I find that I don't know if they used to talk about this a lot or not, but I certainly in recent years are way more articles about working out things, lifting weights, this high intensity thing or whatever stuff than the effect on the brain than they used to talk about getting in the gym used to be just for your. Your love handles or your arms or whatever you're trying to do. I work out purely for vanity. I wish I worked out to like make myself healthier or be around for my kids. But nope, that's not the reason reason. It's purely vanity and helped me being a single person. That's the only. That's what gets me in the gym every day. It should be because I don't want to have a heart attack and leave my kids without a dad. Nope, it's because I want to look better for days. That's the whole reason.

[A]

Whatever gets you there, I suppose.

[C]

Whatever gets you out of the door. But you don't Get a mental boost from the gym? Oh, I absolutely do, but I don't think I wouldn't be getting in there otherwise. That's one of those.

[A]

Yeah, that happens because you went. You didn't go because of that.

[C]

Or. Yeah, if I, if I got the metal boost to get me in, that might work. But yeah, that's. I agree.

[A]

Give me guilt. I've been so lazy lately.

[C]

After I work out and I go almost every day, I rarely miss be getting in the gym. And I always feel fantastic afterwards. I've, you know, whoever leaves the gym and think, well, I wish I wouldn't have done that. You always leave the gym thinking it feels fantastic. And you think, I gotta try to remember this for tomorrow when I'm struggling to motivate myself, how good I feel afterwards. That's not the way human body works. An object at rest tends to stay at rest. Said Newton. And he was right. He was a big fat slob. Actually, he was not.

[A]

Katie, I need you to call me every afternoon. 2:30. Okay? So you'd feel great. You'd feel great. You'd be proud of yourself. You'd be happy.

[D]

You got it.

[A]

You can have maybe an extra glass of wine, huh?

[C]

Little.

[A]

Feeling a little less murdery today because you went to the gym?

[D]

Yeah, I go because it's like my.

[A]

My class is my dedicated time of the day where I focus 100 on.

[D]

Myself because I'm always doing, you know.

[A]

I have the show and then I'm.

[D]

Cleaning the house, doing laundry or whatever else.

[C]

You also damn near died once though, so that's a pretty good motivator. Oh yeah, that's true.

[A]

Death will do it.

[C]

Yeah, they almost die. And the doctor tells you if you don't work out enough, you're gonna die. That'll help, I think. Although I don't know if it would have worked for me. Will I look better? That's what I would say to the doctor.

[A]

Well, you've asked God to send you like a minor heart attack to motivate you. Although now vanity has become your. Your motivation.

[C]

Vanity has become my motivation? Yeah.

[A]

Whatever it takes.

[C]

And then finally, someday I end up in a relationship and then just see.

[A]

How fat I get. Get.

[C]

Which is horrible.

[A]

You know, it occurs to me they, they have magazine articles every. You know, newspaper articles, websites, whatever that tell you exercises you can do in line at Target. And then you tighten that and then you hold it for 15 seconds. I'm going to start doing the dog walk through Target or at the grocery store, balance that little basket on my back and because that would help my stability.

[C]

Right. That'd be great. Go to the parking lot like that. Walking, like, have to wear gloves. It'd probably be a good idea.

[B]

You need to be more like a doll.

[C]

You'd look a little weird.

[A]

Coach.

[C]

Excellent exercise.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

People would talk.

[C]

Fantastic. Shohei Otani is going to get like 4 hour break between the game ending and him starting being the starting pitcher for tonight's game, which will be very exciting. Will there be any fans in the stands or is everybody gonna be like, I can't do this again. I got, I got stuff to do.

[A]

Please.

[C]

Might be an empty stadium.

[A]

Exactly.

[C]

Baseball games are pretty long anyway. I don't know if I need two of them at once. Yeah.

[A]

Here, here.

[C]

I want to talk about Trump's trip to Asia. He was in Japan yesterday and meeting with their new prime minister. And it's all the big setup for the big China meeting, which is Thursday and all the talk around that with trade deals and tick tock and Taiwan and everything else. We'll get into that in hour three.

[A]
