This is an iHeart podcast, Guaranteed Human. You and I hear about people and families who bought a timeshare years ago. They enjoyed it at first, but now feel completely stuck. And that's the part that hits home. People don't regret the vacations. They regret the obligation. If your life has changed but that contract hasn't, you should know this. There is a legal way out.

Appreciate all of you hanging out with us as we are rolling through the third hour of the program. March madness underway. I'm having fun here, Buck, because you're gonna love this. Jake Tapper decided he needed to fact check President Trump's Pearl Harbor Day joke. He said, for what it's worth, Prime Minister Takayachi was born 20 years after Pearl Harbor. Donald Trump was also not born on, on Pearl Harbor. So, Jake Tapper, if we can clip this, thank you for the fact check. It would be impossible for anyone to have actually notified us in advance about Pearl Harbor. It was a joke about the necessity of keeping surprises. Surprises.

Tapper is a, is a super jerk. This is a guy who, when CNN was feeling flush with power during the Obama years, was really nasty, really had a habit of going after conservatives on Twitter when Twitter was also a left wing funhouse that was always helping people, you know, on the left and Democrats all the time at the expense of conservatives. So the ignominious decline of CNN and along with it, the oh so serious taking himself oh so seriously. Jake Tapper is, it's justice, my friend. It's the way it should be.

I think social media has demonstrated how many people in media and there's lots of things it's demonstrated, but it's, it's largely demonstrated how many people in media don't have original thoughts and are also morons, which is a very bad concept and a very bad combination. But anyway, if you were out there, President Trump made a great joke about, about Pearl harbor earlier today with the prime minister of Japan in the Oval Office when he was asked why they did not notify everyone in advance before the surprise attack on Iran. And that was, I thought, quite well said by President Trump. But I wanted to bring this up, Buck, as we're working through the final hour here, the Thursday edition, Mayor Mamdani's wife, there have now been a lot of people going into her social media background. And starting at about the age of 15, and she is 28 years old now, she's about to turn 29, so she's still relatively young. But starting at about the age of 15, when she got on social media for the first time, she began to celebrate the death, the murder of Jews. Um, she also used some, let's say it, inappropriate language, racial slurs, anti gay language. And I'm curious what your take is on this, Buck. And I've got several different breakdowns on this, and I would be curious to hear from a lot of parents and grandparents out there. My general rule is we should not go back in time and, and judge people on moronic things that they tweeted when they were 15 or 16 years old. And so I don't like the idea of when somebody suddenly 26 years old and they're a famous athlete for the first time and they just won a gold medal. Somebody goes back and they say, oh, my God, when they were 15 years old, they quoted rap lyrics or they had anti gay slurs, or they had inappropriate behavior on social media, and we retroactively castigate them for things that they did when they were young. That's my general proposition. But specifically with Mamdani and his wife, she has said the exact same thing since she got online at 15 years old, all the way up to 28, soon to be 29 years old. She has consistently celebrated the murder of Jews, including the murder and rape of Jews on October 7, 2023. Mayor Mamdani has responded to this in New York City by saying, well, my wife is not a public figure, except she's been on the COVID of magazines. She set for very, you know, beneficial hagiographic articles about her that I'm sure her PR team set up where all of the left wing media can fawn over her. What is your take on what should happen? What should a honest media do with a story like this and how should they cover it? What would you say if we, like, how do you analyze this? She's not the elected official. She is the wife. It started at the age of 15. If you were the ombudsman in charge of analyzing coverage here, or the editor in chief, let's say, of CNN and your actual goal was to be fair and Set a precedent for how to cover these stories. What would you say should happen here, Buck?
