Armstrong and Getty. One more thing. Before we get to that, I just downloaded the Gemini app. I hadn't been using that for some reason. That's Google's AI and they've poured hundreds of millions of dollars into creating that thing. I mean, they're one of the big, big players, definitely. So I've been using Chat, GPT, Claude, whoever's that one belongs to. Grok. Claude is flitted out of my mind. Microsoft. No, Grok, which is obviously Elon's. Yeah, look up what Claude is. And now I've got Gemini, Googles and I've got all four of them. Now Anthropic is Claudia. It was recommended to me by somebody because they liked the font. It does have a very pleasing font, but. So I've been using all three of them. Then like if I have a question, I ask all three and then I compare and contrast and it's kind of interesting to do. And I just downloaded Gemini and said, hey Gemini, I've been using Claude, Chat, GPT and Grok and now I'm going to include you in compare and contrast. And it said, oh cool, welcome aboard. Here's a, a rundown of the different styles we all have. And then it gave me a, like a table that said for different kinds of problems, who's best at it and who's not in their conversational tone and blah blah blah and just so weird. Was it self serving or do you think it was a fairly honest description? It seemed pretty honest. There was only one that was. There was only one that seemed self serving. Although it could be true. It said Grok is too online. Okay, maybe interesting, but would have been funnier. Would have been funnier f those other guys. Those guys suck. You want to hang with losers, go ahead, loser. You're all right. Google saying something is too online is pretty funny. Anyway, I'll try that out and see how that goes. Oh, you know what I need to do. Although people can do it for themselves, I suppose is I. I just have the first three you mentioned and I asked them recommend maybe the 20, the 20 greatest books about liberty. Did you get 20 most influential important books written about liberty. How much overlap was there in the answer? Pretty fair amount, but enough Underlap, non lap. What's the opposite Overlap? Whatever the opposite of overlap was, there was enough to be intriguing. Yeah, man, it's so much better than just googling something. If you, if you're not doing that already. Not even close. Okay. To the F word just makes it funny. I know some of you are bothered by that. If you're bothered by F bombs, then you're not going to want to listen to this. This is from the Daily Show Monday night on Comedy Central. Jon Stewart does it once a week. He's the guy that made the Daily show famous. He retired because his wife said it was time to do her thing now. And they took care of lost dogs or something, cats or something, and then he went back to work one night a week. Now I remember back in the day they would bleep him when I used to watch him all the time. What changed to where they don't bleep him anymore? Do you know? Is it exclusively cable now? Streaming. My sense is this. My sense is they just started pushing it with S bombs and then nobody said anything and then the occasional F bomb. Nobody said anything and then they just decided nothing happens. Yeah, I've noticed on a couple of the shows on Fox they let the S bomb slip quite a few times. Yeah, I think you just try it out. I mean, we've done that sort of thing before. Nothing, nobody says anything. So you think, okay, big Fox podcast. Fox. Yeah, yeah. S bombs. S bombs. And probably not in prime time, but like safe harbor or whatever that's called after 9 o'. Clock. Yeah, come on. After 9 o' clock at night you got a crime show and the cop can't drop an S bomb. That's ridiculous. It makes sense. I'd appreciate you give a heave home to the sailor talk, neighbor. You know. Okay, so Jon Stewart was very, very upset that the Democrats had caved. What's I like about this is he's beating up on Democrats because he's always beating up on Republicans. Right. And Trump, quote, unquote, caving. I'm intrigued. Yeah, the caving wasn't the problem. The problem was the damn shutdown. He is outraged that they caved. He thought they had the leverage and blah, blah, blah. Anyway, here's how it sounded. Any Deal must secure the extension of the ACA tax credits. This is about my party saying enough is enough. Democrats will not back down. Do not stop fighting. We're in this fight until we win this fight because we know we're on the right side of this fight. It's literally life or death. So Democrats have three words for this. No way. Well, funny story, yes. Charles Schumer's three words were no match for these five other words. Democrats cave on the shutdown. Excuse me? Cave on the shutdown. Not this forceful, young, authentic Democratic Party that hangs out down by the river and curses in what appears to be a cerulean blue blazer. And I say, no way, Democrats. You gave up the only leverage you had without getting commitments from Trump or Mike Johnson. I cannot believe it. Surely someone in the party understands that offering a vote in the Senate without a commitment that it would pass or that the House would even take it up is an empty offer. Offering a vote in the Senate without a commitment that it would pass without a commitment that the House would even take it up is an empty offer. This guy gets it. Tim Kaine. Tim Kaine. You don't see him as one of the eight voting yes? Virginia Senator Tim Kaine was a yes. I can't believe it. And for what? So, first of all, the version I watch, I don't know where you got yours answered. The version I watched had the F bombs in it. So I thought it was going to be the F bombs, but they weren't blinked to the outrage seems to be from the Jon Stewart crowd and some others, is that they got nothing for it, John. They had no leverage. You don't think there was no way to get those promises? Yeah, I don't know. It's possible some better negotiators could have somehow gotten something or made it look like he got something, because it got nothing. Boy, the pain they would have had to have caused. Yeah. Would have been the sort of gamble that could have ended the Democratic Party forever. But Trump was out there saying, we are losing this shutdown. We got to open it back up. I think he could have said, we just need to guarantee you'll bring the Obamacare to a vote. Because I think, as John Stewart's about to point out, they did not get a guarantee of any kind. Anyway, here's another clip from the Daily Show. No, they caved on the shutdown. Not even. Not even a full week removed from the best election night results they've had in years. Seven Democratic senators and an appren writer voted with their Republican counterparts to end the shutdown and reopen the government. And did they get their extended health care subsidies? Democrats wanted the deal to include extending subsidies for the Affordable Care Act. Instead, they got a promise to vote on it and a later date. I cannot believe it. You had the wind at your back. Election victories all over the country, the new Sydney Sweeney movie box office, bupkis. Apparently, her new MAGA fan base didn't show up in droves to see a biopic about a lesbian professional boxer who overcomes domestic violence to live her truth. Who could have seen that come? Democrats. You sold out the entire shutdown not to get what you wanted, but for a promise to not get what you wanted later. Where in the art of war. Hold on. Where in the art of. Okay, here it is. I got it. Sun Tzu said, never press your advantage. It's unseemly. Fighting's hard. How about a snack? While I disagree with him, his delivery is just. He is. He is the best at that ever. But the fact that that crowd. I guarantee you that Chuck Schumer or his aides or what? Or aware of Jon Stewart's performance on Monday night and thinking, that's a problem for us. Oh, yeah, they painted themselves into a corner, then had to ask for help getting out. It's humiliating. And the crowd that likes Jon Stewart, which is a lot of progressive voters, see it that way. Or at least John Stewart's trying to convince him to see it that way. Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was just wrong on every single factual, you know, assertion he made or, you know, yeah, Trump said, yeah, we got to wrap this up. But Trump needs to stay off social media mostly. I don't know. I don't know what I would have done. Probably wouldn't have done the shutdown in the first place, but if you end up with Jon Stewart lambasting you that way in your own party, you have definitely not achieved anything. You've only taken steps backwards, right? Yeah, I would say so. Although, you know, to prove my point, it's not proof, but it's pretty compelling. I think the Democrats, with the alleged wind at their sails after the elections and everything, and better messaging and the media on their side were getting nothing, and the pain was really, really starting to mount. And so a bunch of them, none of whom is up for election next year, got together with the full permission of a bunch of other Democrats and said, we got to pull the ripcord on this thing. They. I didn't convince them that they were in a terrible, suicidal position. They convinced themselves of that. Yeah. And the. Yeah. I think that Jon Stewart knows better. Okay. All right. I think the part that he's missing is I talked about this the other day on the radio show that the senators get to act independently. It's not like the House where you kind of have to fall in line or you'll never get a committee and you'll get primaried in six months because you have an election every two months and that sort of stuff. Senators do whatever the hell they want inside the boiler. Senators do whatever the hell they want. And you know, a handful of them got together and said, let's, let's just end this. And they don't care what Chuck Schumer's saying to him. They don't care at all. They'll still be in the Senate when he's gone. Right. Right. That's the difference anyway.
