Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Childhood Innocence, Exhaustion & Viral Kid Content

(03:30–05:29)

• Jack recounts his son’s new appreciation for how exhausting young kids can be after volunteering to lead a group of kindergarteners:

  "He said little kids, their innocence. I thought that was funny from a 14 year old. It's just their innocence is so nice. He said, but they're exhausting." (03:58, Jack)

• The hosts discuss the universal charm of young children, segueing into a chat about viral videos of adorable childhood moments.

2. Clips of the Week – A Satirical Snapshot

(05:29–08:23)

• The “Cow Clips of the Week” segment offers quick takes on the week’s headlines, pop culture snippets, and political oddities, mixing genuine news with tongue-in-cheek commentary.
• Notable quote:

  "That was a good week or a horrible week. Depends on which clips you want to focus on." (08:23, Jack)

3. Judicial Dissent and Gender Policy at a Korean Spa

(08:59–13:45)

• Joe highlights a controversial Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision about a women-only Korean spa forced to admit transgender women, sharing parts of Judge Van Dyke’s dissent.
• The hosts express exasperation at the legal complexities and criticize what they call “social experiments” imposed without nuance.

  "This is a case about swinging dicks. ... The Christian owners of Olympus Spa, traditional Korean women only nude spa, understandably, don't want them in their spa." (09:20, Joe)
  "There's just so many things where I just don't know why you just can't just say, ‘Cause. Cause you can't have a guy walking around naked in front of 13 year old girls. Why? Because. Next case." (12:30, Jack)

• Joe riffs, only half-seriously, on his “heroic” admiration for Judge Van Dyke:

  "I'm gonna find out what Judge Van Dyke looks like and get his face tattooed on my chest." (13:39, Joe)

4. Bigfoot Sightings in Ohio & Cryptozoology Culture

(18:22–24:13)

• The hosts have fun discussing a recent cluster of Bigfoot sightings in northeast Ohio, as covered by the Bigfoot Society Podcast.
• They joke about dressing up as Bigfoot (“my retirement plan,” says Jack) and consider the subculture’s overlap with flat-earthers.
• Example:

  “If you're in the area, keep your eyes open and maybe your door’s locked because there could be a Bigfoot in your general vicinity.” (20:09, Joe quoting a Bigfoot Society post)

5. Ambulance Bills, Tech Costs & Economic Grievances

(28:57–31:23)

• Jack vents about a nearly $5,000 ambulance bill not fully covered by insurance, lambasting the system as confusing, unfair, and predatory.
• He shares a listener’s strategy for disputing such bills.
• Joe references rising prices for computers and airline tickets, linking it to supply shortages and global instability.

6. Military Movements & Defense Technology

(28:05–33:13)

• Recent deployments of U.S. Marines to the Middle East and the visibility of submarine-hunter planes over California are discussed, with some speculation and wry jokes about government secrecy.
• Jack mentions plane-spotter apps and the intrigue of military aviation.
• Soviet jokes get a moment, reflecting the hosts’ skepticism toward nostalgia for socialism.

  “We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us.” – Soviet joke (32:24, Jack)

7. Oscars Preview: Movies, Swag, and Celebrity Culture

(34:26–37:52)

• The hosts preview the Oscars, discuss hyped movies (“the ping pong Timothy Chalamet movie” and “Sinners”), and laugh about swag bags and celebrity behavior.
• Notable moments include Paul Newman’s quote on Oscar futility and the frivolity of “awards for art.”
• They joke about starting rumors of ICE going after Oscar attendees:

  "If I had the capability ... to start a rumor that Trump is going to send ICE to apprehend a lot of the people who attend the Oscars. ... That’d be a great rumor to start." (38:13, Joe) "Anybody with a foreign sounding name, right?" (38:27, Jack)

8. Meta Glasses, Privacy, and Tech’s Unintended Consequences

(42:19–44:21)

• A segment discusses the creepiness and future implications of “meta glasses”—wearable tech capable of recording video discreetly.
• Cindy Crawford shares a story of being secretly recorded, prompting concerns about privacy and social norms.
• Joe predicts:

  “Modern world, one star, cannot recommend.” (44:21, Joe)

• Jack notes the inevitability:

  “I think you're just going to get, get used to the fact that anybody wearing glasses might be recording you.” (44:04, Jack)

Memorable Quotes & Notable Moments

• On exhausting kids:
  “Little kids are exhausting.” (03:58, Jack)
• On legal common sense:
  “'Cuz you can't have a guy walking around naked in front of 13 year old girls. Why? Because. Next case.” (12:30, Jack)
• On Bigfoot sightings:
  “He’s walking on two feet. That ain’t no bird.” (19:45, Jack and Joe)
• On ambulance bills:
  “What is the point of medical insurance that doesn’t cover the $5,000 ambulance ride?” (29:06, Jack)
• On tech and privacy:
  “Would you feel like that's an invasion of your privacy? Where is this tech going to take us?” (43:07, Cindy Crawford)
• On speculative rumors:
  “That’d be a great rumor to start.” (38:13, Joe)
• On modern media:
  “We all need to figure out the happy medium ... of being informed but not dwelling. You take in a lot of media and you start to be convinced the world is just rotten ... and that ain’t true.” (47:37, Jack)

Tone and Style

The episode maintains Armstrong & Getty’s trademark blend of sardonic wit, cultural skepticism, and everyman exasperation.

Concluding Thoughts

“We’re going to watch some pretty good hockey, eat questionable stadium food, drink a couple beers and yell like crazy ...” (48:16, Joe)

Listeners are reminded to balance media intake with genuine life experience—while always being wary of anyone in meta glasses recording it all.

Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and Getty.

[Joe Getty]

And now here's Armstrong and Getty.

[Jack]

Friend of mine just sent me a picture. She's working with little kids today for something. I don't remember what, but anyway, the little kids, kindergarteners are dressed up in western clothes for this little educational presentation or they're doing. And I just saw a picture of these little five year old boys and girls in like cowboy boots and cowboy hats and stuff like that. About the freaking cutest thing in the world. And it reminded me my son is an eighth grader, my youngest, and he was, he volunteered to be some sort of youth leader thing on this field trip the other day for the little kids. And so he was responsible for a group of these little kids showing them around and keeping track of them and making sure they could get their lunchbox open or whatever the heck it was throughout the day. And he was exhausted. At the end of the day he was talking about, he said little kids, their innocence. I thought that was funny from a 14 year old. It's just their innocence is so nice. He said, but they're exhausting. I said yes, yes they are. Little kids are exhausting.

[Joe Getty]

That's funny. That sounds like something my son would have done back and did do back in the day. Little kids just flocked to him for whatever reason. Gentle Giant syndrome, I guess. Anyway, I thought you, when you were describing the kids dressed as cowboys, that what it was going to remind you of was not that, but of the colonial settler mistreatment of the native peoples in America.

[Jack]

There was plenty of that.

[Joe Getty]

They, they got dressed up and mistreated native peoples, the little kids. I don't approve of that.

[Jack]

And we're talking the other day about people who watch various YouTube videos and stuff like that. Like, I don't know, you know, skateboard crashes or whatever it is I've seen a couple on TV lately. I need to get an algorithm feed going of this of cute little kid stuff because I always love that they had one up on TV today. I guess it's gone viral for, you know, five minutes before the next one comes along. A little baby. They're trying to set this baby up on the bed and take a picture. The baby keeps falling over and smiling and it's just the cutest damn thing.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, that's sweet. That's nice. Not nearly sweet or nice. My favorite judicial dissent of all time. We will share more of that with you coming up. It includes a rather unfortunate phrase, but it's a useful rhetorical device among other things. But first, it's the Friday tradition. Let's take a fond look back at the week. That was its cow clips of the week. Once of the week, Judge swings and misses. And Italy has pulled off a stunner.

[Jack]

You're welcome, usa. We were thinking of you guys. Oh, come undone.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, my God, he's doing it.

[Cindy Crawford]

The idea of not getting enough protein,

[Jack]

that really reminds me of toxic masculinity.

[Cindy Crawford]

Gemma is one of my favorite snakes in snake yoga.

[Jack Armstrong]

It's just a different vibe.

[Jack]

As a visionary, I know success is not born overnight.

[Jack Armstrong]

Something that you love, that's not family or friends.

[Jack]

I love trans children, you know, but

[Joe Getty]

for me, no bull is just standing up for ideals, striking out against injustice. That defines my why. Each day we're told by those in

[Jack]

high office to fear each other and

[Joe Getty]

to turn on each other.

[Jack]

And now I invite you to scream.

[Joe Getty]

Scre. Basically, shut the up, do your art and shut up.

[Sponsor Announcer]

Since the killing of Ayatollah Khamenei, Iran is reportedly naming his successor.

[Joe Getty]

We know the new so called not so supreme Leader is wounded and likely disfigured.

[Jack]

Boy, did he pick the wrong week to be a Nepo baby.

[Joe Getty]

No. I don't want to brag, but, you know, they said this about a lot of things no other president could do. Some of this I'm doing. You can see black smoke rising from the horizon in Tehran. People on the ground even describing it as raining oil.

[Sponsor Announcer]

The national average for a gallon of gas now at $3.59.

[Joe Getty]

The Russians said that they have not been sharing. That's. That's what they said. So let's hope that they're not sharing.

[Jack]

You just said it is a little

[Joe Getty]

excursion and you said it is a war.

[Jack]

So which one is it?

[Joe Getty]

Well, it's both.

[Jack Armstrong]

Officials said lives were saved when ROTC students jumped in and subdued the shooter.

[Cindy Crawford]

And Render him no longer alive.

[Joe Getty]

Investigators say this man drove into the synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan, got through the wall, and then just drove right down the hallway.

[Jack Armstrong]

And the Jewish community suffers 10 times the number of hate crimes than any other community in this country. So it is an epidemic. It's clips of the week.

[Jack]

That was a good week or a horrible week. Depends on which clips you want to focus on.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. Kudos again to Senator Slotkin of Mississippi there with her anti anti Semitism screed.

[Jack]

Very nice.

[Joe Getty]

And Gretchen Whitmer, too. I haven't heard her speech, but I heard it was a humdinger and was pretty direct, so. Good, good. Let's see. Do we have. Yeah, we'll squeeze this in then. Live team coverage of the Bigfoot attacks in Ohio.

[Jack]

Attacks?

[Joe Getty]

Well, not yet, but there will be attacks soon enough. I'm getting ahead of the story.

[Jack]

I think Bigfoot attacks would be a lead story somewhere.

[Joe Getty]

You'd think. All right, so again, this is not intentionally shocking. I actually think this is brilliant writing. I wish we had time for the whole thing. Like every judicial ruling and dissent and everything is very, very long. And cites millions of cases and precedents that laymen don't understand. But the ninth Circuit Court of Appeals denied a full hearing in a case that they absolutely should have. And Judge Van Dyke, my new hero, is not pleased at all. And here the spells out the facts. This is a case about swinging dicks. Yeah, I know. The Christian owners of Olympus Spa, traditional Korean women only nude spa, understandably, don't want them in their spa. Their female employees and female clients don't want them in their spa either. But Washington State insists on them, and now so does the ninth Circuit. You may think that swinging dicks shouldn't appear in a judicial opinion. You're not wrong. But as much as you might understandably be shocked and displeased to merely encounter that phrase in this opinion, I hope we can all agree that it is far more jarring for the unsuspecting and exposed women at Olympus Spa, some as young as 13 years old, to be visually assaulted by the real thing. Sometimes it feels like the supposed adults in the room have collectively lost their minds. Woke regulators and complicit judges seem entirely willing, even eager, to ignore the consequences that Frankenstein social experiments impose on real women and young girls. Yet if harmful and unfortunate consequences were all this case was about, we'd have to shrug and say that's what comes with living in a democracy. Unless the Constitution is implicated, we get what we voted for, good and hard. Which is a paraphrase of H.L. mencken, which I appreciate very much. And then he gets into the actual laws involved and explains how the anti discrimination laws in Washington State have been completely misinterpreted by the court in a bizarre way and they grant all sorts of exceptions and this clearly ought to be another one. And that this is so clearly a free exercise and a private spaces case. And he explains Olympus Spa is a traditional Korean women only nude spa that is owned and operated by a family of theologically conservative Christians in Washington State. Olympus Spa has operated in Washington for more than 20 years and is the only Korean spa in the state for centuries. Centuries traditional Korean spas have provided treatment to women in female only spaces. Full nudity is central to the tradition and every woman is required to be completely nude when using Olympus Spa. While nude women collect in the common steam room, soak in the common pool and are given body scrubs in the open by female employees. Girls as young as 13 attend the spas with their mothers, participating together in this tradition, traditional cultural practice. And then, you know, you can guess the rest. Some confused dude says I'm a woman because I say I'm a woman, fully clearly a male and demands the right to walk around naked in that space. And the State of Washington and the 9th Circuit Court says, yeah, you gotta let him. The adults have collectively lost their minds. As Justice Van Dyke says, I'm pretty

[Jack]

surprised there's a justice on the ninth Circuit Court that has those views.

[Joe Getty]

Who?

[Jack]

I don't know who appointed him or how he ended up there, but oh

[Joe Getty]

yeah, there are actually several. There just aren't enough to stop their lunacy most of the time.

[Jack]

Also, there are just so many things. I'm not a lawyer, never wanted to be one. There's just so many things where I just don't know why you just can't just say cuz. Cuz you can't have a guy walking around naked in front of 13 year old girls. Why? Because next case.

[Joe Getty]

Don't be effing ridiculous. Next case. Yeah,

[Jack]

yeah, because obviously next case. Oh my God, I don't even want

[Joe Getty]

to get into some of the arguments. You're right. It ought to be as simple as that. The fact that this guy is a man who identifies as a female, has twice been married to women and remains sexually attracted to women. He's a psycho who had his genitals cut off. Well, he still has genitals, I think. Yeah. This period of our insane recent past is coming to a close and the 9th Circuit Court had a chance to say, yeah, yeah, that all was crazy and we should have said and they didn't. But thank you Justice Van Dyke, my hero. I don't even know if it's a him or a her. I would guess it's a him. But I'm gonna find out what Judge Van Dyke looks like and get his face tattooed on my chest is my

[Jack]

show of support and as we know, anything said on this show is ironclad.

[Joe Getty]

Oh yes, yes, absolutely.

[Jack]

So there's no wriggling out of that. You will be getting the face tattoo this weekend.

[Joe Getty]

Face tattoo? No, chest tattoo of a face, right? Yes, yes. Several fatal Bigfoot attacks in Ohio will have life. I decided to up the ante there

I'm gonna watch one of the Moscow nominated movies this weekend. I'll talk about that later. Come on.

[Joe Getty]

Six reported Bigfoot sightings in Northeast Ohio

[Jack]

within four days that that you can't ignore that.

[Joe Getty]

It's an ob. An onslaught of bigfoots big feet. Images resembling the mythical sasquatch have been circulating in northeast Ohio. Drawings, Eyewitness drawings, as there have been six reported sightings in a small part of a wooded area. Small wooded area near mantua in garrettsville, southeast of Cleveland, Ohio.

[Jack]

So when they see him, is he always doing that kind of walk where he looks to the side and got one arm?

[Joe Getty]

That was fake, Jack. This is real. The bigfoot society, a podcast and online community dedicated to collecting eyewitness accounts of sasquatch encounters, said it has received six separate reports from that area. It is described the cluster as a possible flap, a term used in cryptozoology for multiple sightings within a short time. It's normal for there to be bigfoot sightings all over the u. S. But

[Jack]

it's not normal to have multiple sightings

[Joe Getty]

in a small area within a short time of days, said Jeremiah Byron, host of the bigfoot society podcast, which I've got to start listening to.

[Jack]

He's walking on two feet.

[Joe Getty]

That ain't no bird. Right. That was a bigfoot sighting in northern California.

[Jack]

Right. Feel like I'm gonna listen somewhere in the south. I'm gonna listen to that podcast this afternoon. That's a good Friday check out of the news sort of thing. The bigfoot podcast. Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

Or was that in Alabama? Michael? That the guy he was talking about? He had beautiful hair. Yeah, it might have been Alabama.

[Jack]

It doesn't sound like a Californian.

[Joe Getty]

No, he doesn't. Yeah, clearly. So according to summary shared by the organization, the reported encounters. Oh, I. You know, I'm sorry, I gotta get to this quote. If you're in the area, keep your eyes open and maybe your door is locked because there could be a bigfoot in your general vicinity. Said one poster to the group.

[Jack]

Your door's locked. Do they want to come in your house?

[Joe Getty]

If. If you've got a nine foot tall man ape careening around the countryside, it's gonna come through that door like me through one of my kids, you know, I don't know. Building block forts. Please. All right, here are your sightings. March 6th. Witnesses described a brown, approximately nine foot tall figure seen outdoors. That's a BFS right there, man.

[Jack]

His forehead was just like mine and yours.

[Joe Getty]

Wow. Think about it. The next day, Katie. A reported brown 8 foot tall figure along with alleged footprints and deep grunts. Mmm.

[Jack]

Clearly bigfoot.

[Joe Getty]

Those.

[Jack]

Those are the grunts there.

[Joe Getty]

March 9th. Two days later, a reported black 8 foot tall figure. March 9th, a separate account of a black 10 foot tall figure said to be accompanied by a heavy musky odor.

[Jack]

I, I should get some sort of ape costume and go to central Washington. This should be my retirement plan.

[Joe Getty]

I will pay for it if you just play.

[Jack]

Just for something, just for something to do.

[Joe Getty]

I will check that suit and your travel costs. Yes, I will willingly write that check.

[Jack]

My concern would be somebody shoots me and decides they want to.

[Joe Getty]

Oh my God.

[Jack]

Shoot big.

[Joe Getty]

Oh my God. I'm gonna turn you into a. Let him escape. This is a moment that science will never forgive me if I don't. I can't capture him because he's 9ft tall. I gotta, I gotta shoot him. Oh, that would be terrible, what with his musky odor. Later, after the heavy musky odor mixing a shower. Bigfoot. A witness reported seeing a Brown, roughly 6 foot tall figure, perhaps Bigfoot Junior, about 100ft away through a window.

[Jack]

That's a much smaller Bigfoot. That's a dude in a suit. Yeah, I don't know.

[Joe Getty]

It could be his offspring.

[Jack]

That's a hairy guy.

[Joe Getty]

And then March 10, an account described an 8 to 10 foot tall large black shadow said not to resemble a bear. Oh, now he's a shadow figure. That's no bear. Six.

[Jack]

In what period of time?

[Joe Getty]

Four days, I think. Four days? Yeah. They've got pictures of him and he's very large. You would, you would empty both your bladder and your bowels if you were to come upon this beast in the wild.

[Jack]

Well, yeah, if I saw a ten foot man thing Musky ordered, I would. I'd lose my mud, sure.

[Joe Getty]

But I just particularly.

[Jack]

I just don't think they exist. What's the name of it appears to

[Joe Getty]

be heavily muscled too, in the manner of most great apes.

[Jack]

What's the name of the podcast?

[Joe Getty]

I think it's the Bigfoot podcast.

[Jack]

That's a good name for it. I.

[Joe Getty]

It's easily remembered. The Bigfoot Society podcast.

[Jack]

I will seek that out today.

[Joe Getty]

People are tuning out of us right now to go check that out. This was a terrible idea.

[Jack]

But so are these people kind of like the flat earth crowd? Like it's all with a. Kind of a fun joke or are they serious about it? Of course. The flatters guy I know, the flat Earth guy I know is completely serious.

[Joe Getty]

So he's mentally ill or.

[Jack]

I saw him yesterday. He gave me the side eye because I'd been talking about him on the radio, so.

[Joe Getty]

Oh boy. All right. This was Joe saying that. Jack. Jack. Oh, me for suggesting it fully on board.

[Jack]

The earth is obviously flat.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, my son wrote a song called Sasquatchuary. It's like a metal song with Cookie Monster vocals so you can't really understand the words. But he showed me the words and they're hilariously funny and I'm like, why do you like growl it? So people can't understand it. It's just, that's. That's style of metal dad.

[Jack]

Gotcha. Okay, we'll update you on a few things coming up. Stay here.

[Joe Getty]

York Giants this Week signed a three year $12.3 million deal with a new punter, which is expensive for a punter, but it's the Giants, so he'll play a lot.

[Jack]

I got a whole bunch of little items I'm gonna go through here just so I can erase them out of my phone first. This one though. A Marine expeditionary unit with 2200 Marines aboard three US Navy amphibious ships is being ordered to the Middle east. According to two U.S. officials. That's being reported all over the place. So we got 2200 Marines headed to the Middle East.

[Joe Getty]

Is that disclosing troop movements?

[Jack]

That's a good question right there. That's a good question. Running through some other items, this actually happened yesterday, but Representative Jim Clyburn, a powerhouse of South Carolina politics, announced he is running for an 18th term. He's 85 years old, running. But every interview I've ever seen with him, he seems as sharp as ever.

[Joe Getty]

So you can't knock on man and a phony, but. Well, he's sharp at it. Yeah.

[Jack]

So that's that.

[Joe Getty]

He. We. We have him to thank for Joe Biden.

[Jack]

I was talking about this ambulance bill I got hit with.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, yeah.

[Jack]

So family member had to go to. Well, riding an ambulance. I won't get into the details. I got hit with the bill is almost $5,000. Was $4,700 and some dollars. Almost $5,000 that insurance doesn't cover. Or insurance covered all but that. I don't even know how it works, and neither do you and neither does anybody else. And how could this possibly be mean? What is the point of medical insurance that doesn't cover the $5,000ambulance ride or part of it?

[Joe Getty]

And I know you don't want to get into the particulars, but it's not like said transportee was hemorrhaging or.

[Jack]

No, no.

[Joe Getty]

Right.

[Jack]

Anyway, so I got this text. I should. I should have applied this. It's too late for me now. Don't pay the ambulance bill. Fight it. I got a $14,000ambulance bill. Insurance paid over $8,000 of it of the 14,000, but the provider wanted me to pay the other six. I fought it at the board of supervisors meeting, and they let it go. What they're doing is they're charging you to cover the cost of everyone who can't or won't pay. They're hope they hit you at the maximum, hoping you'll just pay it, which I did, like a dummy and. But you can, you know, just say no, and they'll take less, but that's a sucky system. And I'm always worried about. I like everybody else, I'm always worried about it being turned over to a collection agency, which is their threat. And then you got a ding on your credit and nobody wants that.

[Joe Getty]

Right? Yeah. That might be more costly than the money you saved, depending on your circumstance.

[Jack]

5,000 freaking dollars. Jesus. That's a lot of money. We have experienced this recently. We needed to buy a little computer for the show for reasons that we'll get into right now, and ended up being way more expensive than we thought it was going to be. Bloomberg had this story, your tech is about to get more expensive because of the AI demand out there. There is a historic memory chip shortage. The tech giants are buying up all the chips out there. And so anything you want to buy that has memory, laptop, gaming consoles, smartphones, everything. Price is going up a lot. For instance, this computer we have to buy for the show was twice what we thought it was going to be because of this whole chip shortage that's going on in America or the world, really.

[Joe Getty]

You know, I just read that airline tickets have. Some of them have doubled in recent weeks because of the, you know, the conflict with Iran and the Straits of Hormuz and the rest of it. Yeah. So if you got a trip, maybe book it now. I don't know if it's going to keep going up or what.

[Jack]

So this has been exciting for those of us in California. I'm pretty sure I saw it yesterday. This massive submarine hunter has been circling over California for days. It's a great big giant plane. This is after the doomsday plane was spotted. I'm positive I saw that the other day. So the flying White House that they have in case Trump or any president needs to, you know, run the country from the sky and be safe from nuclear attack, that plane was flying around. They're just, you know, making sure it's, you know, the throttle linkage has been oiled up and all these different sorts of things. And then the submarine hunter that is keeping a lookout for any sort of submarine that could launch Iranian drones has been flying up and down California, keeping an eye on the water. And I know, I saw it yesterday, too.

[Joe Getty]

Starting to get a WW2 feel.

[Jack]

I know people who are really into planes, who you can get this app, anybody can get it. And any plane you see in the sky, this app will tell you what that plane is, who it belongs to, who's it's registered to, any details you want.

[Joe Getty]

Crazy. Yeah.

[Jack]

But these planes don't show up on there.

[Joe Getty]

Oh.

[Jack]

For obvious reasons. I think the doomsday plane, that's a good name.

[Joe Getty]

So the sub hunting plane. I'd like to know more about that as I have an interest in the submarine service.

[Jack]

Does Iran have a submarine service?

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, they've got some subs.

[Jack]

We didn't sink them all.

[Joe Getty]

Apparently not. They're under the ocean, so they're already sunk. I don't know. I have an interest in it. Not much knowledge, by definition.

[Jack]

Already sunk.

[Joe Getty]

So this thing, this giant plane, I imagine, has all sorts of sophisticated sensors

[Jack]

and stuff, or imagine.

[Joe Getty]

I mean, because you can't just visually hunt the ocean for submarines. It just. It's too big.

[Jack]

A bunch of guys with binoculars. Yeah, I captured this the other day. This is just a joke. It's A Soviet joke. It was a long list of Soviet jokes and they are all really interesting. And as we move into this era where something like half of young people think communism or socialism is a good idea. What's that one we always like when you don't get paid. We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us. Is the way things work in the Soviet Union. I like this one. A man walks into a shop. He asks the clerk, you don't have any meat? He said no, no, no. Here we don't have any fish. The shop that doesn't have any meats. Across the street. Street. And then finally this. The Oscars are Sunday and you don't care about that. But I'm going to watch a couple of the big nominated movies. I've seen a couple of them already. I'm either going to watch the ping pong Timothy Chalamet movie which me and the boys watched the trailer for last night. Looks crazy interesting. I can't quite tell what's going on from the trailer. Hell of a drama.

[Joe Getty]

I read one review that was super intriguing about the movie. I mean it's not a movie about ping pong per se. It factors into it.

[Jack]

But yeah, so might watch that or Sinners which is supposed to be the big winner on Sunday night. It's a vampire movie set in the like 1930s south at a juke joint and it looks like it's got cool music. Anything like it? But just my both my kids want to watch it based on the trailer and it's supposed to be fantastic but I just don't know if I can make myself watch them freaking vampire movie.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, I know you hate this sort of thing from people haven't seen it. You know I. I read the inevitable. It's. It's a metaphor for systemic racism and it's a woke blah blah blah.

[Jack]

Sure didn't look like it from the trailer. The trailer just looked like it was a damned vampire movie.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah.

[Jack]

Which I. I'd almost rather take the politics than watch a vampire movie really. I'm not into stuff like I just don't like vampires.

[Joe Getty]

You don't like your anti vampire. This is outrageous.

[Jack]

I just don't need that sort of thing in my life.

[Joe Getty]

Type of fiction and something or other and a metaphor for something or other.

[Jack]

They have trouble getting stars sometimes to show up to the Oscars because it's

[Jack Armstrong]

Paul.

[Jack]

I had a funny Paul Newman quote the other day about how he'd gone five times and never won and the. The year he did win he didn't go. But he had told his wife, haven't I paid enough of a price for this stupid thing, having to go all these times and sit there? I'll bet it is a drag. I mean, when you're a big star and you're used to, you know, you don't have to do anything you don't want to do ever. If you're a big star and you're sitting there for like five hours between getting through security and sitting there and being there and blah, blah, blah, and you're not interested in any of it to get them to show up. They have the swag bags. This year it's $350,000 with the luxury goods and experiences, including five vacation packages. One of the getaways is a $65,000 stay in a super villa in some town in Spain.

[Joe Getty]

This is for the nominees, right?

[Jack]

This is for all the nominees. $350,000. So I guess even if you're pretty damned wealthy, that might be enough to get you to show up and sit there for a while, put on your

[Joe Getty]

Sunday, go to meet and close and sit there in the Kodak Theater for handful hours. They got a bar out in the lobby, I think.

[Jack]

I'm sure they do. We were talking yesterday about the whole. The whole campaigning thing, and it's all. It's all just weird. And they have the. You know, we've had two winners in a row that were white, so we better have a Asian or, you know, just any of that stuff factoring into the Oscars and then the how you campaign for it, buying the billboards and doing interviews, that shouldn't factor in either. All that stuff. It's just dumb old dumb thing. Awards for art.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. Again, I wouldn't know it was happening unless you hadn't brought it up. I mean, it's just. I'm sure nobody in my real life brings it up.

[Jack]

I'm sure. No, very, very true. I'm sure we'll have some. There will be some. Sean Penn's gonna win Best Actor. I'd be shocked if he doesn't. And he is gonna say something that is important. So we'll have that on Monday morning. I expect Conan to be pretty funny because he's always pretty funny. And I'm sure we'll have that on Monday morning.

[Joe Getty]

Love Conan. Yep. Won't watch but love Conan.

[Jack]

And then maybe some ancient person will go up there and announce the wrong picture for best picture, which I would find hilarious. That's one of the greatest things that ever happened. All those pretentious people running around like crazy like chickens with their heads cut off.

[Joe Getty]

That was fantastic. Or in Beatty. Right, Right.

[Jack]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Joe Getty]

Good times.

[Jack]

How the hell did you do that? Well, they're America's royalty. Our Hollywood class. I don't know if you're aware of this.

[Joe Getty]

Hilarious.

[Jack]

And they have very deep thoughts because art is reflective of society and film helps us see ourselves in a way that. Oh no it doesn't. You know what?

[Joe Getty]

Funny to start a rumor. If I had the capability, the time and the energy and the inclination to start a rumor that Trump is going to send ICE to apprehend a lot of the people who attend the Oscars.

[Jack]

Absolutely.

[Joe Getty]

That'd be a great rumor to start.

[Jack]

Anybody with a foreign sounding name, right?

[Joe Getty]

He's going to jail. All of the nominees for best foreign film.

[Jack]

There you go.

[Joe Getty]

They're all being Put them in a detention center.

[Jack]

They'll all be in zip ties in the back of a van. Oh Lord, I love that.

[Joe Getty]

The fascism we were warned about.

[Jack]

We will finish strong next Armstrong and Getty.

Crawford and I'm the founder of meaningful beauty. When Dr. Sabah and I decided to do a skincare line together, he said to me, we are going to give women meaningful beauty. And I said, that's exactly right. We want to give women meaningful beauty.

[Cindy Crawford]

Which means each and every product is meaningful.

[Jack Armstrong]

It has a reason to exist. It's efficacious. You're going to get results and then you just go out and live your life. Meaningful Beauty Confidence is beautiful.

[Cindy Crawford]

Learn [e-mail] I recently found out that I was secretly recorded by metaglasses. A month or so ago, I was at my daughter's basketball game and I thought she was just introducing me to one of her friends.

[Jack]

Friends.

[Cindy Crawford]

After he had asked me a few questions, my daughter grabbed my arm and pulled me away. And that's when she whispered, he's wearing meta glasses. I'm going to show you the clip.

[Joe Getty]

I just want to let you know.

[Sponsor Announcer]

You know, you're a very beautiful young lady.

[Jack]

Oh, well, thank you. Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, are you married?

[Jack Armstrong]

I'm not.

[Jack]

You look very good.

[Joe Getty]

I just want to let you know.

[Cindy Crawford]

So let me ask you this. Should people be allowed to film strangers with meta glasses without telling them? Would you feel like that's an invasion of your privacy? Where is this tech going to take us? Says, in the future, would you be okay with this happening to you? Would you be okay with your kids having a pair of these meta glasses?

[Jack]

Don't you just be flattered? What people find you hot.

[Joe Getty]

It's a terrible intrusion.

[Jack]

What. What is it? What are the. What is illegal? Legally, you can't. Right.

[Joe Getty]

Very state to state.

[Jack]

But there's going to be no way you're going to stop this.

[Joe Getty]

No, but that's incredibly rude nonetheless.

[Jack]

Oh, of course it is. But it's gonna be so common now in situations like that where you just, you know, you're staring at somebody or in meetings or all the time trying

[Joe Getty]

to get your favorite. Your least favorite teacher fired as a teenager. Right. Since Try to bait them into saying something untoward. Boy, how's that, how's that going to work? Since they come with prescriptions now, you know, they can actually say, well, this is how I, you know, these are my glasses.

[Jack]

Well, right. That's what. It's kind of interesting. Hey, he's wearing meta glasses. Well, lots of people are going to be wearing meta glasses and lots of different companies are now making them. So you're not going to be able to recognize them all easily, I think. You know, I don't want it to be like this. I think you're just going to get, get used to the fact that anybody wearing glasses might be recording you.

[Joe Getty]

Modern world, one star cannot recommend.

[Jack]

Yeah, Boy, it'd be really, really common, I'll bet, to start trying to bait people into saying things that's. And then you've recorded them.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, yeah. And then you issue the, the clip out of context. You. You trot it all over the Internet. People are howling for blood. Yeah. Or, or does that become so common, people just ignore it? Oh, they, they, they. What is it? Metaglast them. You know, we'll have a term for intentionally entrapping someone, you know, using that.

[Jack]

Well, you got, you got the glasses like Katie for, For your. When you have a baby.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, I have. And they have not left my house because I, I wouldn't. I don't want people looking at me thinking that I'm filming them because, I mean, the. While it's discreet. I mean, if you look hard enough, you can see the camera.

[Jack]

Yeah, my. My son's band teacher got him because he just had. They had their first kid and he loves him for having a baby. He just said, it's so fantastic.

[Joe Getty]

All bet.

[Jack]

Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

And I can't wait for that.

[Jack]

You don't have to whip out your phone. They smile and you just tap the side of your glasses and you got a picture.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. Hey, Michael, how long do we have until final thoughts? A minute and a half. I've been intrigued by clip9 since I first saw it during the pre show meeting. Can we hear that? Bees can breathe underwater for a week. Scientists have discovered the conclusions were reached by Rick, who just likes drowning things. What? Oh, that took a dark turn. Bees can breathe underwater. The amazing bee.

[Jack]

What a joke. Go ahead, hit it, Michael. We'll leave. We'll leave. Plenty of time to ramble for final thoughts.

[Joe Getty]

Hey, kids, it's that time again with Armstrong and Getty. Here's your kids do love this feature.

[Jack]

Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.

[Joe Getty]

Let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew to wrap up the show. There he is. Michelangelo in the control rooms. Michael, lead us off. Okay, my final thoughts. Actually, a question for Katie. How long can you record on those glasses? 30 seconds a minute? Do you know? You know, I'm not aware of a time limit.

[Jack]

Hours.

[Joe Getty]

I'm thinking of getting some. That's why I was asking. Probably a lot. Yeah, I don't think there's a time limit on it. Katie Greener, esteemed news woman, has a final thought. Katie, I just can't really get my mind around the whole fact that people are running to churn butter, but you end up with butter. But you.

[Jack Armstrong]

We went over this.

[Joe Getty]

But you have to run. Butter's good. Oh, yeah. Jack, a final thought for us.

[Jack]

Let's get to Hanson.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, that's right. Special guest, final thought, executive producer Mike Hansen.

Armstrong Getty on Demand.

[Jack]

Thank you very much.

[Joe Getty]

Done. Jack finally thought.

[Jack]

I'm a big fan of being informed of what's going on in the world, but we all need to figure out the happy medium, the. The perfect spot of being informed but not dwelling. You take in a lot of media and you start to be convinced the world is just rotten and everything is awful and there's no joy in the world. And that ain't true.

[Joe Getty]

My final thought, for instance, my sweetheart and I are going to a minor league hockey game tonight. We're going to watch some pretty good hockey, eat questionable stadium food, drink a couple of beers and yell like crazy for a team that happens to play in a city closer to our house than those jackasses on the other team that play for a city that's somewhat farther from our house and we hate them.

[Jack]

And one thing you can probably count on with my minor hockey league experience is some good fights.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, at least an elbow to the chops.

[Jack]

They like to fight in the minor league hockey, so that'll be cool. Cool.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah. You do get guys who realize the only way I'm getting to the NHL is as an enforcer. So I got to show them what I got tonight.

[Jack]

And of course, your blood will get up for the people on your team who are being punched upon because they live slightly closer to you than. Well, the team is located. The players probably who they could live anywhere they play for a city that's

[Joe Getty]

somewhat closer to my house. What part of that do you not get?

[Jack]

[Joe Getty]

Or boycott Apple or fashion a placard goes march out front of their headquarters.

[Jack]

We still have 40 seconds left, Mike.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, we had to start early. You wanted me to start early, remember?

[Jack]

Anybody got a fried chicken recipe they'd like to recite?

[Joe Getty]

The interesting thing about hockey fights is how honorable they are. Nobody ever gets seriously hurt because everybody understands once a guy is down, it's over. Oh yeah, yeah. There are rules about what you can do, can't do. Every hockey player knows them.

[Jack]

Hockey an example for all of us.

[Joe Getty]

That was a really nice life affirming.

[Jack]

End of the week, whip out your phone. If there's a good fight though, I would like to see it posted. We'll see you Monday. God bless America.

[Joe Getty]

Armstrong and Getty.

[Jack]

Who would just want consciousness can't see hear, feel, do anything. But I'm alive. Whoop.
