Episode: "This Is An Ad For Potato Chips?!?"

Date: February 9, 2026
Host: iHeartPodcasts

Episode Overview

This episode dives into reactions to the Super Bowl broadcast, focusing chiefly on the halftime show featuring Bad Bunny, presented primarily in Spanish. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty discuss cultural shifts in American entertainment, the inclusivity (or lack thereof) of the NFL’s presentation, commercial strategies—especially emotionally manipulative advertising—and a range of news topics from politics to crime. The tone is classic Armstrong & Getty: skeptical, irreverent, humorous, and sometimes curmudgeonly, with candid exploration of what mainstream culture considers "normal" in 2026.

Main Discussion: The Super Bowl Halftime Show Controversy

The Language Barrier & Cultural Messages

• Jack Armstrong expresses frustration about the NFL’s decision to have a prominent Spanish-language segment for the halftime show, feeling excluded:

  "What is the message that I'm being sent by the NFL by having a 40 minute show that's not in my language? What is the message being sent to me there?" (03:28)

• Joe Getty speculates that this is a deliberate move toward a multicultural, Hispanic America:

  "Step aside, white people. The Hispanic multicultural America is here and you're gonna take it." (03:42)

• Both hosts point out that only a small percentage of Americans speak only Spanish, and the choice of a Spanish-only segment without subtitles alienates most of the Super Bowl audience:

  "You crafted a halftime show for the by far most watched TV show in America and, and crafted it for 5% of your audience." (07:58 – Jack)

Artistic Critique of Bad Bunny's Performance

• Jack and Joe critique Bad Bunny’s style ("stomping around shouting in Spanish") and lack of singing or dancing compared to past artists:

  "He just stomps around shouting things at me in Spanish. Now, you cannot possibly criticize me for not finding that entertaining. Some guy stomping around shouting Spanish at me." (06:36 – Jack)

• The pair lampoon the enthusiastic mainstream media coverage:

  "I'm hearing some racism here, folks. Plenty of it. I mean the New York Times. Bad Bunny delivers joyful super bowl halftime show." (07:46 – Joe)

• The show pokes fun at criticism labeling them as old or uncosmopolitan for preferring English-language entertainment:

  “Forgive me for being so … non-cosmopolitan. That I want my entertainment in my language.” (18:36 – Jack)

Broader Cultural and Economic Calculations

• Joe analyzes the NFL's strategy to expand its audience and de-emphasize its traditional base:

  "That was Roger Goodell's completely mathem calculation that the old people, the old white people would get over it." (09:04)

• On whether similar decisions would be made elsewhere in the world, Jack notes:

  "Are there any other countries where they would take the most popular thing they have in their country and put it in a language that practically nobody understands? Other … No, it's. It's unthinkable." (09:54 – Jack and Joe)

Notable Moments & Quotes

• Trump’s Satirical (Fake and Real) Response:

  "This is your favorite president and this message is for Bad Bunny or as I call him, the nasty rabbit..." (12:07 – Jack, parodying Trump).
  "The super bowl halftime show is absolutely terrible. One of the worst ever.... it doesn't represent our standards of success, creativity, experience, blah, blah, blah. No, but nobody understands a word this guy is saying." (12:25 – Discussing Trump's actual social media post)

• On Commercials Manipulating Emotions:

  “Don’t tug at my heartstrings with the sort of thing that gets to me. And then it’s about flipping potato chips. Lays. That’s my favorite potato chip, too. But oh, he’s given his farm over to his daughter because they worked together... This is an ad for potato chips.” (16:59 – Jack)

Other Key Segments & News Topics

Media Coverage & Listener Feedback

• Reviewing media headlines, the hosts note polarized responses:
  • CNN: "Bad Bunny super bowl halftime show performance redefined what it means to be an American patriot." (17:59)
  • Fox: “Guthrie family vows to pay ransom as desperate search for Nancy Guthrie enters day nine.” (18:54)
• They invite and read listener texts and emails, many of which echo confusion or displeasure about the halftime show, noting its lack of cultural resonance for English-speaking, mainstream America.

The Guthrie Kidnapping

• Update on the Nancy Guthrie case: The hosts discuss the suspicious circumstances of the high-profile kidnapping, sharing skepticism as to whether it is a genuine ransom operation or something stranger.

  “This doesn't seem like any kidnapping I've ever heard of. I don't think they're...they kidnapped her for ransom. I don't think this is the kidnappers reaching out.” (29:30 – Jack)

• They discuss how public appeals to criminals may actually embolden or amuse predators rather than encourage mercy.

Other News Highlights

• The possibility of new Congressional debates over age limits for lawmakers (20:25)
• AI in the operating room leading to botched surgeries (20:07)
• Social media "vagueposting" (20:41)
• Ominous hints that political bombshells (like impeachment over cryptocurrency) might be on the horizon, yet are under-reported.

  “There’s another ginormous story … but nobody’s aware of it. But the minute the Democrats take the House of Representatives, I think Trump is going to be impeached like maybe that week over cryptocurrency and the UAE.” (37:17 – Joe)

Football Talk

• The hosts briefly praise the defensive prowess of Seattle (“Suffocating defense...,” 41:21 – Joe), while pitying the losing quarterback for enduring a “suffocating” performance.

  “He didn’t have a half a second to do anything. What was he supposed to do?” (41:34 – Jack)

The Armstrong & Getty Takeaway

The episode centers on feelings of cultural displacement among traditional American viewers, using the Super Bowl halftime show as a lens to discuss broader social, cultural, and business trends. The hosts balance satirical humor, cultural anxiety, and straight commentary, questioning whether this drive for greater diversity and expansion is inclusive or simply alienating. Amidst the critiques of the NFL and commercialism, they explore what it means to be included—or excluded—in mass media and question who exactly "American" pop culture is for.

The tone is conversational, skeptical, and at times nostalgic, with the hosts openly grappling with the nature of change, representation, and how media choices may reflect or drive cultural division.

Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

[Jack Armstrong]

Armstrong and Getty. Here's Armstrong and ready. Live from Studio C, please. Senior, really hoping to not fall and break our legs moments into the show today, make our way all the way down the hill and be successful with a brand new week of intermation for you. Coming fast and furiously from so many different angles and today slaloming from story to story. Story, if I might further torture the metaphor, or jumping in the air and doing a backflip and landing on one foot of infotainment. But today we're toiling under this title.

[Joe Getty]

Roger Goodell says learn Spanish, gringos. Or which do you prefer, Stupor bowl or Pooper Bowl?

[Jack Armstrong]

What? What? What is the message that I'm being sent by the NFL by having a 40 minute show that's not in my language? What is the message being sent to me there?

[Joe Getty]

Step aside, white people. The Hispanic multicultural America is here and you're gonna take it.

[Jack Armstrong]

I knew that his songs are all in Spanish. That didn't catch me by surprise. But when it turned out it was some sort of, like, play that opened with a still screen with words on there to like, set it up for you and no subtitles, I was like, what the frig is this? So I'm lost from the. From jump. I mean, from the opening segment. Okay, this is a play about something. But they're not willing to tell me what it's about. So I did a little homework after the game, annoyed by this. How many Spanish only people live in the United States? There's a lot of people speak Spanish, but most people speak Spanish and English. And the number, it's hard to nail it down for a variety of reasons, but it's single digits.

[Joe Getty]

I'm told there are a number of folks who have immigrated without documents. Go on. So tough to compile. Yes.

[Jack Armstrong]

But it's somewhere between like 2 and 8% of people speak Spanish fluently only at home. So it's for that crowd, for 4% of the country that only speak Spanish. The rest of us who don't only speak Spanish yet. No interest in figuring out a way to make that entertaining for us. You didn't even try. No.

[Joe Getty]

Nope. No subtitles, no nothing.

[Jack Armstrong]

To me, like I said, I wasn't. I knew it was gonna be in Spanish, but I thought there'd be some sort of, you know, tip of the cap to the fact that 93% of the audience would benefit from a little help here.

[Joe Getty]

Well, of the population. How about the audience of the Super Bowl? What. What are those percentages? And there were a number not very subt. Messages in the show too. God bless America.

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't have any.

[Joe Getty]

Venezuela, Colombia, because America is all of those countries.

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't know what any of those open your borders, suckers, because I don't speak that language.

[Joe Getty]

Well, you had to go after and dig up the translations to know that it was leftist politics and.

[Jack Armstrong]

And.

[Joe Getty]

And sacks being sold in the halftime show.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, sex is always being sold in the halftime show. My son was. My oldest son was like, when did they start having strippers as dancers? I said, time ago. You were too young to remember Beyonce. Or many, many other halftime shows in which crotches are being shoved in the camera. So that's.

[Joe Getty]

On the other hand, for sheer numbers of asses shaken, that was a pretty impressive display.

[Jack Armstrong]

I. I hate to beat up on the halftime show. Cause it's like a. It's like the. I don't know, the tiredest take on the super bowl there is. But this is a different level for one thing, and this is. This is artistic taste. I don't get. Bad Bunny doesn't dance or sing. Usually. These people sing. He shouts.

[Joe Getty]

He sings some.

[Jack Armstrong]

He just shouts words. I was listening for singing. There was. There was maybe one word you could have called possibly attempting to sing a note. The reference is just shouting words. Okay, That's a lot of rap is shouting words with. Fine. But he also doesn't dance. Usually these people that are the kind of popular artists that, you know, you beat up on their singing, like Brittany or whatever, they're part of the dance corps, and they're just as good a dancer as all the professional dancers. But he doesn't do that either. So he just stomps around shouting things at me in Spanish. Now, you cannot possibly criticize me for not finding that entertaining. Some guy stomping around shouting Spanish at me. Why in the world would I get any enjoyment out of that whatsoever? I mean, even the tiniest bit.

[Joe Getty]

If you costumes were nice, like every.

[Jack Armstrong]

Year, like Kendrick Lamar. A lot of people didn't. You didn't like Kendrick Lamar.

[Joe Getty]

Fine.

[Jack Armstrong]

You don't like rap. The head rap. I liked it. Or Beyonce. You don't like pop music. It was pop music. But this. Somebody stomping and shouting Spanish at me come up with one thing, even like just a. One palm frond that they had many of their. That. That I could grasp onto for entertainment.

[Joe Getty]

I'm hearing some racism here, folks. Plenty of it. I Mean the New York Times. Bad Bunny delivers joyful super bowl halftime show. The. Let's see, where's the Wall Street Journal's delightful account?

[Jack Armstrong]

I saw the word historic thrown around this morning. Yeah, it was historic. You crafted a halftime show for the by far most watched TV show in America and, and crafted it for 5% of your audience. I don't. And again, you might make a good point there. I was going with the population. I gotta believe a lot of Spanish only households ain't watching the Super Bowl.

[Joe Getty]

No, they like football. Not football. So appreciate the Wall Street Journal headline. Bad Bunny uses joy to put out political firestorm at super bowl halftime. We're still here. Puerto Rican superstar says in Spanish while spiking a football. That's right, we're still here. And then spikes a football in America's face. Bad Bunny uses joy to put firestorm at super bowl halftime.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, that's not Bad Bunny's fault. He gets to have that opinion. I don't understand why the National Football League decides that's what their audience wants. That's so crazy.

[Joe Getty]

No, they, they calculated that their current audience would not get it or ignore it or get over it the way they got over the whole Cap Colin Kaepernick politicized sidelines thing. And their new audience, younger Hispanic international, would dig it. That was Roger Goodell's completely mathem calculation that the old people, the old white people would get over it.

[Jack Armstrong]

I was trying to think if there's any other. You know, I'm always talking about how has any other empire ever done this, turned on itself and like, educated its children to hate their own empire? I mean, has this ever happened in world history? And I don't know if it has, but on, on this one. Are there any other countries where they would take the most popular thing they have in their country and put it in a language that practically nobody understands? Other.

[Joe Getty]

No, it's. It's unthinkable.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh. And they obviously wouldn't do it in China or Russia or any. Or North Korea, any of those countries, obviously. But even in, like when France would you. And I don't know what language you would choose, but would they have whatever the number one thing is in France, maybe World Cup Soccer? Would you have the, Would you have the show be in some language blemish.

[Joe Getty]

That 3% of the population speaks and everybody in Paris Stadium is just looking around? I have no idea. No, it's absolutely unthinkable. Unless Roger Goodell and the NFL are saying F you to the vast majority of Their current audience to go for that international audience.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow. I was shocked by that. Again, it was the opening still to set up the play that being in Spanish was like, wow, you really, really have no interest in me following along with this.

[Joe Getty]

I mean, that's, that's like minimal effort. Subtitles. Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow.

[Joe Getty]

Wait a second.

[Jack Armstrong]

I'm sorry, I'm incorrect.

[Joe Getty]

You're incorrect. Bad Bunny delivers joyful super bowl halftime show.

[Jack Armstrong]

Historic and joyful.

[Joe Getty]

That's right.

[Jack Armstrong]

And we'll talk about that. More magician or a clean stand up comic for the whole family? I'm just saying different. I actually saw somebody was posting halftime shows from the 70s there and there was like motorcycle jumpers and guys training, taming a lion and the dogs doing tricks looked way more entertaining than what I saw yesterday. At least it was in English. Yes, Katie, I was a. I was a huge fan of the Puppy Bowl. You know what I. For first year I've ever forgotten to tune in the Puppy Bowl. Puppy Bowl. And I always love the Puppy Bowl. You get that camera down in the. In the water where they come over and take a drink of water. The camera, the water cam. Oh, that's a good shot right there. There. Yeah, let's. We got lots to talk about. It was also the most boring super bowl in many, many years in terms of just watching a football game. Let's start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty on this. It is. How did it already get to be Monday, February 9, the year 2026, where Armstrong and getting. We approved this program.

[Joe Getty]

Let's kick off officially now, according to FCC rules, regulations. Here we go at El Marco.

[Jack Armstrong]

This is your favorite president and this message is for Bad Bunny or as I call him, the nasty rabbit. El conejo desa gradable. He's a nasty rabbit and a stupid rabbit. That's not actually Trump.

[Joe Getty]

Trump was not pleased with the show either.

[Jack Armstrong]

No. His truth social post from the actual president. The super bowl halftime show is absolutely terrible. One of the worst ever. Exclamation point. It makes no sense. Well, it doesn't if you don't speak Spanish. Is an effort, is an affront to the greatness of America and doesn't represent our standards of success, creativity, experience, blah, blah, blah. No, but nobody understands a word this guy is saying. What a funny old man thing to say right there. It's true.

[Joe Getty]

What is he saying?

[Jack Armstrong]

Nobody understands a word he's saying.

[Joe Getty]

It's in Spanish.

[Jack Armstrong]

Pop.

[Joe Getty]

Spanish.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, my God. The dancing is disgusting. Especially for young children that are watching from throughout the usa.

[Sponsor/Advertiser Voice]

I've.

[Jack Armstrong]

I've always wondered why they have such sexual dancing during the halftime of the super bowl. But.

[Joe Getty]

Well, I wondered why substandard Rabbit was grabbing at his crank so often. But then I saw the lyrics to his song. Oh, now I get it.

[Jack Armstrong]

Then it fits.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, it's all about intercourse. Yeah. And intercourse with lots of different women.

[Sponsor/Advertiser Voice]

Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't, I don't know. You know, I have to, I have to be offended like in absentia or something about the lyrics since I don't speak Spanish. I just, I sat there befuddled for a while and then I thought maybe I'll put Michael's cheese dip in the fridge since I've eaten so much I'm about to throw up.

[Joe Getty]

Well, it's. Although I think it's worth contemplating that in English speaking America the reaction was what the hell. And in Spanish speaking America it's like.

[Jack Armstrong]

Cover the kids ears. Wow. Yeah, that is interesting. Okay, any thoughts on that text line? 415295KFTC. We've got Katie's headlines on the way. Lots to talk about today.

[Joe Getty]

[Sponsor/Advertiser Voice]

[Jack Armstrong]

Bad Bunny, so we'll start with those abc Trump calls Bad Bunny's super bowl halftime show a couple quote, slap in the face to our country. NBC, that wedding during Bad Bunny's halftime show.

[Joe Getty]

It was real.

[Jack Armstrong]

And cnn Bad Bunny super bowl halftime show performance redefined what it means to be an American patriot. Oh, my God. Now you tell me which emotion lands with a majority of people. The that redefined what to be. It means to be a patriot or Trump saying, that sucked. I didn't understand a word he said. Like 80% at least. People who hate Trump say, yeah, he's right about that. Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

You know, you could, you could practically substitute Kamala's for Bad Bunny, Trump's for what the hell was that? And it would win the election.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, and forgive me for being so, you know, non. I'm trying to think of the right word. Cosmopolitan. That I want my entertainment in my language.

[Joe Getty]

Whose headline was that last one? The Patriot One. Cnn, cnn Unfriend believable.

[Jack Armstrong]

Fox Guthrie family vows to pay ransom as desperate search for Nancy Guthrie enters day nine. Yeah, I want to talk about that.

[Joe Getty]

So.

[Jack Armstrong]

Family addressing the kidnapper or hoping they're addressing the kidnapper yesterday? Probably not to my guess, but we'll see. New York Times Lawmakers to view 3 million unredacted Epstein files behind closed doors. Now we're going to get to final. Finally get to the truth. Many people are saying, okay, yeah, espn, the quad God lifts USA to gold in figure skating. Easily the most dramatic sports thing that happened yesterday with the super bowl being what it was. I wish I had watched that in real time. They needed. That was so close with the Japanese. We needed like a practically a perfect performance to beat the Japanese. He goes out there and does like seven things nobody had ever done ever in the history of skating.

[Joe Getty]

Oh, I wish I'd seen it live.

[Jack Armstrong]

What do you say? And scores. Lands a backflip on one foot. And after doing five or six quads, nobody ever landed one. Ever. He does five or six of them in one routine.

[Joe Getty]

Please.

[Jack Armstrong]

From Reuters. As AI enters the operating room, reports arise of botched surgeries and misidentified body parts. That's a foot. No, it's not.

[Joe Getty]

Wow. I'd like to know more from the Wall Street Journal.

[Jack Armstrong]

Elderly lawmakers won't step aside, prompting new debate over age limits. Yeah, I'm for having this debate.

[Joe Getty]

Age limits are absolutely, probably not constitutional unless you put them in the Constitution. But I'd like to. Maybe we should debate which.

[Jack Armstrong]

Maybe we should. From the New York Post. Vague posting trend sparks social media fury with intentionally confusing posts say that. What's the vague, vague posting. I have someone who does the I does this all the time on Facebook where they'll say, oh my gosh, I've never been this upset. And that's their status update. And everybody's like, so it's friends with clickbait? Yeah, pretty much.

[Joe Getty]

Wow. Wow, wow. No. Too bad.

[Jack Armstrong]

We were friends.

[Joe Getty]

Sorry to hear it.

[Jack Armstrong]

Sorry. Sorry to hear it. And finally, the Babylon Be NBC suffers bizarre technical glitch as entire halftime show broadcast is in Spanish. You don't have to go back many years where it would have been just not even an option. People would have thought it was insane. I still think it's insane. We'll talk more about that and read some of your texts and get into some of the news of the day. I hope you can stick around Armstrong.

What's your favorite Bad Bunny song?

[Jack Armstrong]

I already got one. Sorry about that.

[Joe Getty]

I don't know who that is.

[Jack Armstrong]

I never heard of Bad Bunnies. I don't know who that is. I don't know no Bad Bunny song.

[Sponsor/Advertiser Voice]

Do you think they made a mistake?

[Jack Armstrong]

I believe so. I ain't never heard of Bro.

[Joe Getty]

I don't have one.

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't listen to him.

[Joe Getty]

I don't know any song. I don't think I have one.

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't have one. I don't really listen about Buddy that was a Quite a number of Seattle Seahawks players.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

Who had no idea who Bad Bunny was or could name a song, weren't quite as excited about the super bowl halftime show becoming more and more clear that this was like a not a cultural phenomenon that reached the point to justify being on the halftime is rather the shoving it upon us, hoping that we'll like get on board or something. I don't know what that is.

[Joe Getty]

No, no, I'll tell you precisely what it is. First, a note. The Seahawks players, a bunch of young black Men primarily, and a couple of white guys too, I think, in that montage. And an American born, I think all of them. Roger Goodell said, we're going to give it enormous wet kiss to the Spanish speaking world 100%. And to me, like insanely, not even given a tip of the cap. Here's some subtitles for the English speaking world. We're going to say to the Spanish speaking world, we love you. We are you. This game is you. And the English speaking people will forgive.

[Jack Armstrong]

Us in the way that calculation. In the way that the opening game of the year, Chiefs, Chargers, was in South America.

[Joe Getty]

Well, yeah, but it's not like they had some Spanish speaking announcer. And we were just sitting there saying, I think it's third and two. I can't tell because they're speaking in Spanish. But yeah, it's. It's part of the same thing. I just. I get the calculation as a cold blooded business decision. I do not understand the utter lack of any. I'm going to help you out a little bit. To his enormous English speaking audience, I. That is, that is. That. You know what it is?

[Sponsor/Advertiser Voice]

It's.

[Joe Getty]

It's an FU.

[Jack Armstrong]

That's the way I took it. 135 million people tuned into the halftime. Most watched in decades or something. Yes, Michael, they know they got us for the football. And so it's sort of like we.

[Joe Getty]

Know you're going to keep watching.

[Jack Armstrong]

At least that's their calculation. It's not like I'm going to boycott the NFL over this, but I'm highly annoyed that you just don't even care at all whether or not I get anything out of the halftime show. I mean, just like, like Joe said, didn't even throw me a bone. Hey, here's what this is about. You know the play. They're gonna do a little play here, like a musical sort of thing. This is what it's about. No, it's all Spanish. Not. No help whatsoever. Okay, we're gonna talk about that more later, including some of you who just think we're old racists on the text line, which is perhaps trolling. But we'll get into that more in our two. So the whole Savannah Guthrie's mom story. I. Some FBI. I'm glad this happened. Some former FBI bigwig went on Fox yesterday and said something I've been thinking all weekend. And so it makes me feel better saying it. But first, here's a little rundown of where we are on that story. When Savannah Guthrie references receiving a message.

[Sponsor/Advertiser Voice]

She'S talking about a note that was.

[Jack Armstrong]

Received from a tucson television station on Friday evening. And the FBI and the pima county sheriff's department have been analyzing that message From Nancy guthrie's supposed kidnapper. As yet, they have not been able to validate its authenticity. And savannah's post included carefully calibrated, deliberate language not to antagonize any captors, but.

[Joe Getty]

To show a degree of seriousness, they.

[Jack Armstrong]

Promised to pay to bring their mother home. Yeah, probably didn't do this in the right order. Here's savannah guthrie from the little tape that they released over the weekend. That was analysis of it.

[Sponsor/Advertiser Voice]

We received your message and we understand. We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace. This is very valuable to us, and we will pay.

[Jack Armstrong]

So I feel like a lot of people on the. The cable news channels are. Have been dancing around a number of things out of. Out of, you know, being respectful or whatever. And that's good.

[Joe Getty]

They should be.

[Jack Armstrong]

I've always felt like our radio show Is more like what people say in real life, Sitting around talking. And in real life, sitting around talking, People say much harsher things Than you would say as the host of a cable news show.

[Joe Getty]

Right. Yeah. You know, I need to remind myself of that occasionally. This is designed to be people, Friends sitting around drinking coffee and shooting the bull in the morning. Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

And, you know, when you're sitting around with friends Talking about this sort of stuff, People say lots of things you would never say on the, you know, the cable officially, but some FBI guy said it in. In gentle terms yesterday. This doesn't seem like any kidnapping I've ever heard of. I don't think they're. They kidnapped her for ransom. I don't think this is the kidnappers reaching out. I think. Who knows what crazy s happened here? He didn't say that, but. But who knows what crazy plan this person had?

[Joe Getty]

But this is going to be a mix of crazy slash stupid. We don't know which percentages, but.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, and also, I don't. I don't blame the family for. Well, if there's a 1% chance it is the kidnappers, let's let them know we're willing to do business or whatever. You might as well. There's no harm in it. But they're probably not negotiating with the actual kidnappers because the kidnappers have. Kidnappers using my finger quotes have given. No, hey, we got her. Here's, you know, here's something only she would know about your childhood or whatever. Nothing because they're not the actual kidnappers. It's some trolls or losers who think they can rip them off or whatever out there. The poor old woman is dead somewhere. And that's almost certainly the case. I hope it's not. I hope I'm wrong.

[Joe Getty]

Of course. Of course. Yeah. I think we all know that the chances of her still being around are exceedingly small at this point. It's very sad.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

I don't want to go ahead.

[Jack Armstrong]

And I think it's becoming more evident or more people are willing to say out loud, this doesn't look like a kidnapping case. This isn't the way they unfold when you've got professional kidnappers.

[Joe Getty]

My only fear is if we aren't all freaked out enough about the modern world and the postmodern world and the soon to be post postmodern world, there are going to be a fair number of people who think, huh, Kidnapping, cryptocurrency, huh? And we're going to see an increase of it. Copycats, Although they're not copying. Probably an actual four ransom kidnapping. But more scumbags and idiots will think, you know, I could pull that off.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah. So that we're willing to pay from Savannah Guthrie. And the reporting is. And who knows what all is going on with various trolls sending all kinds of ransom demands from. I'm sure they've gotten probably tens of thousands at this point flowing into various places from trolls around the world. It'd be really time consuming to try to wade through those, see if any of them mean anything. But it started at $1 million and went to $6 million over the weekend, which is another thing that the experts say is not common among professional. And the deadline is today and the deadline will come and go and they won't hear anything from the. Kill that person.

[Joe Getty]

Right back to my fear of copycats, etc. When you see the abject powerlessness of the family and their willingness to pay generously for the return of their loved one. If. And this is one of my favorite metaphors I've come across, the whole most majority is sheep. There is a small but significant number of wolves and a small but significant number of sheep dogs that protect the sheep. If the wolves out there are looking at this, they're saying this is a really good idea. Kidnapping for ransom in the age of cryptocurrency.

[Jack Armstrong]

I hope you're wrong about that, but I don't think you are.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah.

[Jack Armstrong]

I have never been in this position. I hope I never am. So I don't know how I'd act, but just based on people I've known who are scumbags. Watching TV shows and movies throughout my life, reading lots of true crime books or whatever. The whole, you know, please give her back. We really care about her, you know, or him, your loved one. Those kind of people love that.

[Joe Getty]

I mean that feeling to their sympathy.

[Jack Armstrong]

And victims always do. And I'm always surprised by that because the scumbag trolls that I've. That I've known in my life, they. They love that. That makes them happy. That doesn't make them. Oh, okay. I didn't realize this means so much to you. I suppose I should get. No, no, they. They want you to be damaged because they're damaged and they're lashing out at the world and.

[Joe Getty]

Right. Yeah. Well said. Yeah. I've got to admit, I cringe when I hear please. Like that. I'm thinking, yeah, you're dealing with a predator, a sociopath. There are, again, a small but significant number of them out there, and you just have to recognize that they are evil and they exist. And, you know, for a long time in America, we did recognize that. And when we came across somebody who proved over and over again that they were evil and could not or would not repent, we put them away for good.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah.

[Joe Getty]

Now progressives think that's a bad idea. I respectfully disagree.

[Jack Armstrong]

Before we take a break and get to the mailbag, I was going to read a little from Mark. Well, I'll tell you what Mark Halpern wrote in his newsletter over the weekend, which I thought was really good about our attention span in America and what we should be paying attention to, and we aren't. We'll tell you about that after. Ruff Greens.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, we're from Rough Greens. Old Baxter's gonna miss it when our remodel's over because he gets so many pets from all the people working in the house.

[Jack Armstrong]

Woof. So the gonna use my finger quotes racist cartoon that Donald Trump tweeted out on Friday with the Obamas monkeys. And I was interested to read on Saturday morning Mark Halperin and his little newsletter and I'll quote from a little bit later in the show because I thought it was really, really good. But, but just how difficult the news cycle is and where we are in the modern news cycle and what gets the most attention. And he said, and he was making the point that there are several last week giant stories going on. I mean the United States looks to be very close to going to war with a major country, Iran, and got he had the numbers almost no coverage on your evening newscast or anything all week long. And then how the racist cartoon and he said this is, yeah, it's probably racist. It's one of like a half dozen things Trump has done in the last couple years that he shouldn't have done, blah, blah, blah. But it's nowhere near as important as the fact that we might be going to war with Iran or the peace talks with Russia and Ukraine that could blow up in anything or a number of other stories that are going on and we just don't focus on, on the important stuff anymore at all.

[Joe Getty]

Right. Yeah, that's clearly true. There's another ginormous story Jack and I were discussing before the show that is out in the open, but nobody's aware of it. But the minute the Democrats take the House of Representatives, I think Trump is going to be impeached like maybe that week over cryptocurrency and the uae. Wow. Tell you a little more about that to come. But oh, it's enormous. It's an enormous story. The New York Times, the left media has been on it big time. But anybody who doesn't read them is unaware of it.

[Jack Armstrong]

And we'll continue to whine about no, I'm not going to call it whining. I think it's a legitimate criticism of the halftime show from the super bowl in our two and some of your texts which are really, really interesting. So we got Mailbag on the way. Lots of stuff.

And then when someone is open, he doesn't make the throw. That's because the previous 50 throws, he almost got his head caved in.

[Joe Getty]

He's a little nervous, a little shaky back there, right? Yeah. Poor kid. Well, what are you gonna do? Here's your Freedom of Hating quote of the day. Continuing great communist leaders in the way they think. Vladimir Lenin. Under socialism, all will govern in turn and will soon become accustomed to no ungoverning. So, Jack, you know more about Lenin than I. Well, I know more about John Lennon. You know more about Vladimir Ilyich Lenin. Did he actually believe that or was that part of the snow job to try to calm the proletariat?

[Jack Armstrong]

He actually believe. According to Stephen Kotkin, who I referenced last week, he got into all the Soviet files when they finally were opened up and wrote a couple of great, great biographies. But one of his revelations was they were actually communists. Stalin and Lenin actually believed that crap.

[Joe Getty]

Wow.

[Jack Armstrong]

Which I know is amazing. Wow. I always assume that they weren't or like, you know, the Ayatollah is Not actually what he claims to be or, you know, any of these. They're just crooks or they want to be in charge, but.

[Joe Getty]

Right. Right. Madness. Mailbag. Feel free to reach out via email mailbagarmstrongygetty.com Good morning, writes Eric in Texas. Big kudos. Oh, the headline is cheese dip brings families together.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, God, I ate so much of your dip, Michael. I was near vomiting by the end of the first quarter. Glad you enjoyed it.

[Joe Getty]

Big kudos to Michelangelo's cheese dis recipe. While my wife and I disagree on most things political, we agree that the cheese dip is amazing. Here's a slogan idea because we haven't marketed it very well. Michelangelo's all American cheese dip with Mexican cheese uniting families since enter the year here. I think it's a winner. Let's see. Speaking of the Super Bowl, Jared the stunt actor writes, waking up to the commentary on the big games halftime show just as split as everything else in this country right now. Looks to me like the left loves it because it seemed like it's a stick in the eye of America lovers. Right? The right hates it because, well, he didn't speak English. He actually found it fairly entertaining in a lovely story about Puerto Ricans who are still Americans.

[Jack Armstrong]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. How did you know what the story was? See, I'd have been all for following the story if I could have.

[Joe Getty]

It seemed to be about people at home and in the neighborhood and then women shaking their asses and something about sugar cane. Then Eric, I'm sorry, Jared says for his last number, even said God bless America, then followed with a sign of unity, although what you missed was the translation. It was God bless America. Then he mentioned all the Spanish speaking countries in the Americas, hinting that either, you know, quit calling yourselves America because there's a lot of countries, or open your borders, you racist gringos.

[Jack Armstrong]

What was the climb in the telephone poles?

[Joe Getty]

What was that about hurricanes in Puerto Rico and how they're constantly having to rebuild the telephone poles. Okay, that's what I took from it. I guess I don't speak Spanish. Is the rub John writes. Hey, guys, in addition to the worst Super Bowl I've ever seen, I just watched the worst halftime show I've ever seen. I understand music is art and not everybody's gonna like the same thing, but. But who is that music for? It's. He's the number one streaming artist on the globe.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right.

[Joe Getty]

Well, as we've said many times, if crap sells, sell crap. I don't love it, but a lot of people do.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, I don't think it's crap at all, but it's not for me. And I don't understand why America's number one television show for English speaking audiences would feature something in Spanish. It doesn't make any sense, but I have gathered this morning from listening to some people that it has become like, like wearing masks. It's a, it's a sign of where you are. And saying, oh, I love the halftime show is a gesture toward I hate America and everything. The people that hated this show love.

[Joe Getty]

I hate like everything else, it's a tribal signal. To that point, John goes on. The thing that really stood out, though, is the response to Substandard Rabbit. The super bowl party I was at had a good cross section of conservatives, some of whom left the house to watch Kid Rock elsewhere, and liberals. The liberals either liked a halftime show or gave substandard Rabbit a pass. The conservatives were laughing at how bad it was. When I complained about the music, I was called privileged. I responded, it's not about politics. This music is really bad. I was reassured that I am privileged.

[Jack Armstrong]

I don't feel like I'm in a position to judge music if I don't understand a single word that's being said.

[Joe Getty]

Yeah, I don't tend to like hip hop, but I understand some people do. It doesn't threaten me that people like different things. It's the all Spanish. As Jack pointed out earlier, no subtitles.

[Jack Armstrong]

Even for the written stuff.
