How do how did it sound? it's not that long. I was like, it's not that long. I would love to hear like him reading it. Well, you know I see s I see some people when I go look at their Substack posts, you there's a listen button and I don't know who that is recording it or if it's AI or if the person Todd: Hmm. Yo, it's Carrie: records it. Like articles, and I'm like Todd: I I do that on mine but I record Yeah. So for me it's the author reading it, but Yo, it's Carrie: You record it? Okay, gotcha. So I would like w I'd like Will to record. No, just kidding. No, thanks, Todd: It might not always be. So Yo, it's Carrie: Todd. That's cool. Yep. Todd: But no, it was good. What was it? 'Cause you got Carrie has for whatever reason people dropping like flies all around her. you don't even want to get close Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: to her or you'll die. Instantly almost. No, I'm just kidding. Yo, it's Carrie: gosh. It's just been it's just been a rough, a rough stretch Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: here. Losing people I know. And yeah. Yes. Yeah. One of was a I know. One Todd: Young too it sounded like. Which there's no guarantees in life, you know, but yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: of 'em's the age of my sons and that was really sad. And another one was a teacher at the school where I subbed all those years and I Todd: Wow. Yo, it's Carrie: know, just tough, really tough stuff. But yeah, so Yeah, go read it. It's it's actually Todd: So you had a song that you liked and it was I Hope You'll Dance. wait, that wasn't the song. I have not heard this pop song at all. Will was playing it a little Yo, it's Carrie: It's no, it's not No. Have you okay, I know you Todd, I know you have not listened to the song. It's Todd: bit a few minutes ago before I came in here. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: It sounded like every other pop song I've ever heard. Yo, it's Carrie: It absolutely does. It's it's a it's a fluffy just it's a fluffy, light, fun, dance pop song. That's all it is. But wow, it the words of it caught me off guard in the state that I was in this week. And so yeah. Spoiler alert. No. No, never. I just, you know, but it's a good reminder. I just feel like everything around. Todd: And it made you wanna live. Carrie was Carrie had revolver in hand and she've made it through. She's watching this election and she's like we elect a Muslim Yo, it's Carrie: Everything. gosh. The election. Todd: communist. Boom. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-mm. I hope not. That's that's one of my hopeful predictions is that we'll be reporting that socialism did not prevail. Yeah, exactly. Todd: failed this so this will be our last one before the election it's also gonna drop the week of Halloween right Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Todd: which I don't have do you have big Halloween plans you usually do things up you know what I'm doing for Halloween before you get into it I'm getting a CAT scan on Halloween Yo, it's Carrie: So I what what are you doing? Yeah, what are you doing? Todd: like they they texted me and they said Yo, it's Carrie: Uh-huh. Todd: how about Halloween at 6 p.m and I look and I'm like that's a Saturday you want me to get a a CAD scan Yo, it's Carrie: Third cat scan on a Saturday?

Yo, it's Carrie: Seriously. All right. Well I hope that's good. Before Todd: You got big plans or no? Yo, it's Carrie: your CAT scan, I want you to go listen to that song that I posted on Substack. Yes. do I have plans Yeah, so Todd: Get excited. I'm always excited. Yo, it's Carrie: I'm going to a costume party. Like I'm going to a Halloween party today. Tonight. Well, it's funny because I was Todd: Mm. You're gonna whore it up? Like all the girls at the gym that Shane Gillis talks about? Yo, it's Carrie: You know the joke? No, you know the joke about how like, you're going as a nurse. It's like a slutty nurse Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: or whatever. I was like, so my plan is to go as a conspiracy theorist. I meant to bring my my hat, my silver hat. Anyway, for for this, I forgot. It's not pointy, it's like a bucket hat. It's hilarious. Todd: Like your tinfoil. Yo, it's Carrie: But anyway, no, but I'm thinking maybe it should be a slutty conspiracy theorist. Todd: I think everything on Halloween should always be slutty. That's the whole point. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, so I guess I gotta I gotta work on the on what else I'm wearing. I'm not gonna wear just the hat, but you know. Todd: No. Yo, it's Carrie: Anyway, but no, Todd, it's gonna be really fun because I'm going to be taking a poll on I'm gonna have a little sheet that people can come and just mark tally what what they believe is real. Yeah, Todd: What conspiracies? Yo, it's Carrie: it's gonna be a conspiracy theor theory poll. Todd: You'd be like flat earth Dave. You know. Yo, it's Carrie: Flat Earth's gonna be on there. I'm gonna have a little advanced sec section. Todd: You're gonna be like, Are you old enough to remember when they pretended that Muslim communists flew into our buildings? Yo, it's Carrie: Not gonna get too full. I'm actually not making any reference to 9-11. It's too dark. I'm like, we're keeping it light. But Todd: There you go. Yo, it's Carrie: but I'm gonna have an advanced section with chemtrails and MK Ultra. See, because some people are like, what? What's that? And I'm like, never mind, that's the advanced stuff. But the real Todd: Yeah. Th that'll be fun. Yo, it's Carrie: basic. And Clarissa's going as my plus one, and she's dressing as an a a slutty alien. Yeah. Todd: really? Good for her. Yo, it's Carrie: I'm just kidding, it's not really slutty. But it's Todd: It'll be fun. Yo, it's Carrie: cute. Todd: So have you been paying attention to anything or are you just too busy? Yo, it's Carrie: I lost you. What's up? Todd: Have you been paying attention to anything or are you just too busy? Yo, it's Carrie: I've been paying attention to Todd: Here she is, she's back. Ain't me yet. Yo, it's Carrie: been paying attention to the stuff you send me, this ridiculous AI B S. Todd: Amy Acton, man, she looks good in the Just Her and Vivek. Yo, it's Carrie: That is not her, right? my gosh. Todd: So a so for for the for those of you don't know, Vivek Ramaswamy is in a a tight race with Amy Acton. Actually I think he's if Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: any of the polls were real, of which we don't know, but if any of them Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. Right. Todd: were Yo, it's Carrie: Do you believe? Todd: I think she's currently winning in the polls. and he's been taking a lot of heat. Now, so I wanted to put this up. This kind of stuff's all over. But what I really wanted Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: to to to put up is he had Vivek did you hear about that ad that Vivek dropped this week? The it Yo, it's Carrie: No. I've been getting a ton of junk text messages about Vivek and I'm like, I don't live in Ohio, but okay. Todd: It had here it is. We're we're gonna play this ad because this this ad caused quite a kerfuffle among among Republicans, all kinds of people, at least squishy Republicans. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: They did not think I mean the the hue and cry against this ad, this is what Yo, it's Carrie: Squishy Republicans. I like squishy Republicans better than Rhino. I like the squishy republi Okay. Todd: So this is Amy Acton's mother. Okay? Let's let's watch this ed. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. For real? Todd: Yes, this is for real, and Vivek ran this ad. He's taking credit for it. This isn't like some conspiracy theory. You can't put this on your list. But Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: let's hear what Amy Acton's mother thinks about her. Amy Acton is running in Ohio for governor against Vivek Russwan, what's his name? Yo, it's Carrie: Ramaswamy. Todd: Ramaswamy, some Indian Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: name. And he's barefooted all the time. And Yo, it's Carrie: That was so fake, by the way. Okay. Todd: Anyway, the in politics, listen, all's fair in love and war. Politics is war, right? So that people thought this was Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah it is now. Todd: low, but let's see what you think. Here's Amy Acton's Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: mom. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: Pay special note to that guys. She worked for building these sexual abuse programs, right? Just let's we're gonna get back Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: to this. I want people to to recognize that. Yo, it's Carrie: Holy crap. What? Crazy. Todd: Well what do you think, Carrie? Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. Thrown under the bus by mom. Todd: Yeah, so a lot of people thought that was below the belt. It was an Yo, it's Carrie: Really? Todd: an Indian hitting below the belt. Yo, it's Carrie: my gosh. I'm sorry. I don't think what do you think? I don't think it's below the bell. I think it's shocking that the mother would make this statement. Todd: Well let me give you a little bit more background on it. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: where is I could maybe just have she Amy Acton supposedly I will not be beside my point. Okay, that's not it. I thought she responded to it. Here she is. Let's hear what let's hear Amy Acton respond first, and then I'm gonna give you a little bit more I'm gonna give you a little bit more Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Did she? Todd: And by the way, they they went after Vivek on it and he said, Yes, it's our ad and we're sharing it and it's fine and it people need to know that her mom thinks she's a piece of shit and the whole thing. Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. my gosh. Todd: And go worship one of any number of a hundred thousand Hindu gods. It was something like that was Vivek's statement. Yo, it's Carrie: my god. Todd: So Ohio, do with that what you want. You got a white communist? And a Republican Hindu. I don't know which way I'd choose if I were you. But anyway, here's Amy Hackton respond. Yo, it's Carrie: Never choose the communist. Todd: I wanna say she looks a lot better in these memes. Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: I was gonna say, is this Amy Acton? Those AI like memes you've sent me have really exaggerated Todd: She looks really hot in the memes and in person she looks like she's a hundred and twenty-five. So she was removed, and this is true. So so the the story behind this is that Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Mm-hmm. Todd: her her stepfather was charged with sexual abuse of her and her brother. Her and her brother were removed Yo, it's Carrie: Oof. Terrible. Todd: from the home. Her mom stuck with the stepdad and always said, No, I don't think anything happened. And then Yo, it's Carrie: Damn. Todd: they moved the stepdad and the mom moved. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: out of state and this was back in the 70s where they didn't just go after people. You know what I mean? It wasn't as easy to Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. Yeah. Todd: go if you moved to Texas it wasn't as easy to get a hold of you as it is today. And Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: so that the the there's Yo, it's Carrie: It's awful. Todd: it's a big kerfuffle out there because that's why they think it was a little bit below the bell. Let's hear. Chris Christie. Chris Christie tried to eat Vivak Vivek, whatever his name is. Okay, whoops. What do you think, Carrie? Let Yo, it's Carrie: Cool. Todd: me see I I'm gonna see if I got anything else here. Why am I Go ahead. Yo, it's Carrie: So I'm just shocked this the the only images I've seen of her are the ones that you've shown here. And I'm like, that's just Todd: You'd be better off. She's like wait a minute. No. Yo, it's Carrie: I was like, is she really a bombshell? And they're just, putting her in z in swimsuits and stuff. But no. She's just like Todd: No, she's old as hell. Yo, it's Carrie: she well, she doesn't look old. She looks she looks like our Todd: I just kidding. Yo, it's Carrie: age, Todd. That's what she looks. Yeah. Todd: What? She looks fifty years older than me. Yo, it's Carrie: She does not. Todd: God, you're being awfully rude to me today, Carrie. It's Yo, it's Carrie: Dude Todd: Todd's world. Yo, it's Carrie: That's 'cause it's like a hide they have all these high def cameras and stuff. Anyway. No, I just I don't actually know anything about her policies. is do they do they do they reek of socialism? They do. Okay. Todd: She took a lot of heat. There w Yes, yes. she was she was involved somewhat in the in the state like the Ohio State Health Department, whatever during COVID, so you can only imagine what was coming out of there. She had Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. okay. Lots of yeah, lots of government control. Todd: she was in charge of a group of thugs that would go from door to door asking if you had any Muslim communists you were hiding during COVID. They didn't find any in Ohio, Yo, it's Carrie: Because they wanted to recruit them? Todd: but they found all kinds of them in Michigan. Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: Were they recruiting them? Todd: She's like, you need to meet my mother. Now we we heard Yo, it's Carrie: Man. So that's a sad that is a sad story, but Todd: we heard here's here's your our old buddy Nick. Remember we heard him, he's on the he's he's he's on the war path against Vivek, right? He hates Vivek. But Nick Fuentis. Yo, it's Carrie: Who? Nick Fuentes? Why does he hate Vivette? Todd: But here what he has to say about this well, 'cause he's an anchor baby. And he's a Indian and he's a foreigner. Yo, it's Carrie: But he's fully but he's fully embraced the country. He's not trying to Yeah, but I think Todd: You like Vivek. V Yo, it's Carrie: if you even step outside and try to be objective about him, he doesn't seem like someone who was born here but was raised to be bringing, Eastern or whatever philosophies to to America. He seems very Todd: You you you liked Vivek in the last when he ran for president, right? not not that you weren't Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. yeah. I like him. Todd: on board with Trump. That's not my point. I'm just saying that if you're looking Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, no. Todd: at the other candidates you thought he did a decent job. Yo, it's Carrie: yeah, he's super in in touch with the people. He cares about his community, he cares about the country, but he doesn't seem to have a foreign agenda, if you will. So why does Nick Fuentes have a beef with him? Todd: Let's hear what he has to say. I I have to tell you, I'm not as big of a Vec fan as Curious. I never have been. He always seems like a shady snake oil salesman to me. And he always has. I don't exactly know what went down with his business, but I think he Yo, it's Carrie: He's such he's such a good speaker. Yeah, he's such a good speaker. Todd: scammed a bunch of people with his big tech business. And I don't know. There's something about him. Yo, it's Carrie: Really? Okay. All Todd: Something about Yo, it's Carrie: right. Todd: him, something around his bare feet that just bothers me. Something about his turban. Anyway, here's Nick. Talking about Vivek. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: Case you wondered. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, that's awful. Yeah. Todd: That's true. I was gonna say. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: okay, I wanna say he was not convicted of raping the daughter. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. okay. Todd: We did not he he he they moved, they fled the state and it was never adjudicated. Yo, it's Carrie: He he was okay he was accused of it and they he Todd: He was charged with it, yes. Yo, it's Carrie: was charged with it and they left. Todd: theoretically. I I'm not even positive Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: that anybody's found the actual paperwork where he was charged, but it sounds like it's relatively accepted that that he was. 'Cause it was in the seventies, yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: It's hard to find I was gonna say, yeah, it's hard probably to to confirm this in any sort of authoritative way. Todd: So what do you think about it? You think you think the ad's fine I have JD Vance somewhere, which Vance, is from Ohio, and he's friends with Vivek. And Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Right. Todd: he was defending the ad. I don't know if I have that clip. It's weird that I don't, but Yo, it's Carrie: So okay, the ad, separate from the history of I I mean, I don't know Todd: Yes. Yo, it's Carrie: I don't know, I don't know. But the ad separate from the history of the mom. I I think it's shocking that a mother would speak out against her child in a campaign. but I don't think it's unethical to use it. Todd: You don't. I I don't either. Yo, it's Carrie: I don't. Todd: I don't care either way. I I I will say this it it there was two things Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I thought about it. I thought it it it felt a little it felt a little bit desperate maybe to me on the Vivek side. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Todd: I just would I mean I would I I don't know how Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: effective such ads are. I would hope that his campaign is not in such a desperate situation, but it it Yo, it's Carrie: I yeah. Todd: Seemed like that a little bit to me. The other thing I thought is with an ad like this, maybe you maybe you drop it a little closer to the election and don't give everybody two weeks to respond to it. You know what I mean? Let it let it do its work. I don't know. Yo, it's Carrie: Sure, sure. I don't know. Would that would that be more would that be more desperate? I don't know. Todd: That's what I mean. I I don't know. But I I I just think, you know, because of the family history, it makes Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: it kind of hard. Like you take somebody because regardless of whatever happened in this case. We know Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: that this kind of thing happens a lot. Where you'll have a step stepdads are are number one, right, when it comes to molesting young girls. I think it's stepdads. Like that's that's that's your that's your best chance of Yo, it's Carrie: Ew, really? That's so awful. Todd: getting molested if you're at that's what you're after. But but no, I my point is it happens a lot, and it also happens a lot that the biological mothers side with the step parents. And then a lot of the time I don't think you maybe it it doesn't even get out. You know what I mean? It's it does nobody gets charged, nobody gets whatever. But point is we know this happens. So and I and I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I have to believe that Vivek knew that that his team knew that this story. I mean Amy it sounds like Amy Acton kind of talks about it on her on the stunt on the trail and whatever. So I don't think it so it just seems to me like like venturing into territory that You're just opening yourself up to being called an asshole because you're going after this poor girl who was sexually assaulted at twelve and she's taken away from her mom, and now the mom Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Todd: that moved away and sided with a stepdad you're throwing up on television like some kind of an authority. Like I just thought, man. Yo, it's Carrie: I was gonna say people people will if they know the story will definitely question her credibility if you know she's calling she's calling her daughter a liar y but maybe that's to protect this man who, you know, she was with. I don't know. It's pretty yeah, it's Todd: Yeah. I I d I don't know either. Yo, it's Carrie: it's it's a pretty precarious approach in your campaigning. Todd: I I don't know. It makes me wonder if if if Vivek's in trouble in Ohio. I everybody sa thinks he is. Yeah. I don't I don't know. Yo, it's Carrie: I hop really? Wow, that sucks. Sorry, Ohio. Good luck. Todd: I I mean listen, I I I don't like Vivek and I have not I've he's never been a big I've never been a big fan of Vivek, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: but I mean he's gotta be better than an avowed white liberal communist who defends mutilating children, you would think. I mean Yo, it's Carrie: Sure. I Todd: It's a low Yo, it's Carrie: I'll Todd: bar, admittedly, but and I don't like the idea Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Yikes. Todd: of foreign foreign anchor babies being in our political leaders. I don't like that either. So Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: call me a racist. That wouldn't be the first one. But I just don't I I'd like America like it was founded, you know? I don't think we need to import forty million third worlders and turn our country into a cesspool. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. I understand that it's just it's just he doesn't seem to fit that bill. Todd: He's also real pro H1B visas, which again that only helps Indians. It basically allows the tech companies and the healthcare companies and everybody to just bring over as many Indians to replace American jobs as they want to. Yo, it's Carrie: Hmm. Todd: And I think perhaps your loyalties are divided, my barefooted friend. Yo, it's Carrie: I see. I can see why I Todd: Ha ha. Yo, it's Carrie: can see why you think that. I was going to say what is it you what is it you don't like about him, but that's okay. Todd: That is specific and I think he just comes off smarmy. But you know, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong. Carrie, you know, I was I was listening to I was reading your thing you wrote on Substack, and I thought this kind of reminds me of of someone. I just can't Yo, it's Carrie: Wait, what? What I wrote reminded you of this? No, don't say that. That's horrible. Todd: I'm kidding. You were like, who are these people listening to? This is she's the one doing the narration on articles for you. Listen to how brilliant Kamala is. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. no. Todd: Let me repeat that. She it was so good. Yo, it's Carrie: She just she just always seems drunk. Todd: There's a lot of people that think she's gonna run for president Yo, it's Carrie: Doesn't she seem drunk? Todd: again. Can you believe that? Yo, it's Carrie: I hope she does. Todd: in what how bad must the state of the Democrat Party be that you have to recycle Kamala Harris? just an absolute nightmare. Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. Todd: I it she doesn't say anything that ever makes any sense at all. And you're like, what in the hell? What was the other thing that came out this week? I sent this to Yo, it's Carrie: boy. Yeah. Todd: you. This is the least surprising thing, I think, is Yo, it's Carrie: okay. Todd: there the reports came out that they've they've they've dug up an old some old bro some old people, some I don't know what they are, male Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: pr male escorts that had fun Yo, it's Carrie: Yes. Todd: with Lindsay Gramnesty. And they thought Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: I guess the Democrats thought this was a big score to take a dead senator that everybody already thought was gay and say, you know what? We got a big story. This guy was gay. You don't say. Yo, it's Carrie: Wait, did I'm sorry, I'm blanking, did he die? Todd: Yeah, you don't remember Lindsay he just died not long ago. Remember his sister Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, thank you. Yeah. Todd: is running for his Senate seat. I don't know why. That's a that's another weird Trump thing. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, why th I'm sorry, I remember this all now. Why why are they bothering like with some po you know posthumous Todd: I I don't know. The Democrats were were hauling it out and they like, You you won't believe this and it was like okay. Yo, it's Carrie: expose. no Todd: And you know everybody's like, Well, who's that gonna be? You know, probably it's a Republican because that's the only inside scoops they ever do. And Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: then you find out it's dead Lindsay Gramnesty, and you're like, What is that supposed to help you? Yo, it's Carrie: this is not a shock. This is not a shock. Todd: Like, is that your way of going after his sister who's running now? What I mean, Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, right. Todd: everybody nobody's calling her gay. I think she's got kids and stuff. I just don't think Yo, it's Carrie: okay. Todd: anybody's calling her gay. And I don't think anybody cares that her dead brother was gay, because everybody already knew he was gay. So Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Yeah, no one cares. That's wild. Todd: I I thought that was kind of like, that's that's the big news that you got, Yo, it's Carrie: Slow, slow news on the left, I guess. Todd: I guess, maybe, I don't know. Do you see that France was burning this last week? Did you see the flames? Yo, it's Carrie: I have I have not seen the flames, but I've heard people talking about it. Todd: It was this is just a little I'll play just a little snippet Yo, it's Carrie: Poor France. Todd: for people to people to see what's going on in France. I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: don't know if it still is. I know it was last week. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I don't know if they have now quelled the the riots or what. So this was in France. It's a it was a mostly peaceful protest as far as we know. Yo, it's Carrie: Wow That looks so terrifying. Todd: I'm sure everything's fine. Yo, it's Carrie: What what was the what was the riot about? Sure it's all fine. Poor France. Todd: I don't know. It was the I think in the end i i it the problem with France is Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: that they're basically socialized at this point. I don't know if you remember Margaret Thatcher. She was a famous prime minister of England. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Prime Minister. Todd: During during Reagan's presidency. People look back and they they credit three Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. The eighties. Todd: world lead three world leaders as helping to bring down the Soviet Union. Reagan, of course. Well, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: let's say let's say four. Let's let's throw Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: Mikhail Gorbachev, he of the Gorbasms in. And then Margaret Thatcher was the other one in Pope John Paul II. Those are the ones Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: that that that people talk about kind of worked together in that time to bring down the Soviet Union. Well what what Margaret Thatcher, the Iron Lady, is famous for a famous quote of hers is that socialism is great until you run out of other people's money. Or or that's that's the problem with socialism Yo, it's Carrie: She said that. Todd: is you run out of other people's money. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: And France is running into exactly that. So what you got is you got these student protests, you got all these people, they already spend half of their GDP or more on social programs. And they don't Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Okay. Wow. Todd: have enough, they got massive debt and and Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: everything is just going to hell, and they keep promising more and more and The problem is that it's like musical chairs, eventually the music stops and then there's not enough chairs. And then Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: people get upset and they riot. And so the younger generation, there's a version of that going on in America. Where the ya we we see this that's with the housing market, there with the inflation, with all these things that are that are really crushing the younger generation. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: And those theoretically of the boomers, you know, who've retired and have done better and And Gen Xers Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: maybe who are on the tail end. Not me, but some of us are on the tail end of our stuff and have done well and they've, you know, retired as cops Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: or whatever. But but it's the it's the younger generation that that feels like it's getting squeezed. AI's coming Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: for all the jobs, you know what I mean? And so Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: that tends to cause unrest. And I think that's what's going on in France largely. But then what happens is that gets co-opted by the Muslims that have come in. Now Muslims are twelve, thirteen percent of of France and and so then it becomes a Muslim program. They want to take over. I mean that's the only thing Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: that Muslims want to do is take over. They they'll breed their way into it and they're more than happy to do that. in fact that brings us to the Muslim Kami race in Michigan. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: El Sahid. I which I I'm gonna tell you my prediction, so I'll give a few predictions today as we go Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: through the show. And Carrie, you're welcome to too, whatever you feel like. I think the Republicans are gonna hold the Senate, is what I think. I think they're gonna hold it Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: maybe fifty two forty eight. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: It'll be a surprise that the Republicans hold the Senate. Now listen, the Senate's full of Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: squish Republicans. So Republicans we're we're Yo, it's Carrie: Sh yeah. Todd: not talking about a Trump Senate. We're just talking about a Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: Senate that won't actively try to break out the guillotines. You know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: Do you think they'll hi Do you think they'll hold it even without these gas prices being fixed and wow. Todd: Yes, I do. Well, apparently the gas prices aren't gonna be fixed. I don't know what's Yo, it's Carrie: Awesome. Todd: going on, but you get this good news out of Iran and then gas prices go up fifty cents. I I really don't know. I wonder Yo, it's Carrie: I know. It's terrible. Todd: how much of it is is these oil companies working against Trump. I don't know why they would do that exactly. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: so I I I don't know. I don't know what's going on. this is wild. This is the one I wanted to show you on the heels Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: of the Paris thing before we get into Yo, it's Carrie: El Said. Todd: yeah, the Muslim commie. Muhammad, as Trump calls him. He said Yo, it's Carrie: no. Todd: But look look look at these people, this couple in Paris. They're they're at a cafe. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: This is kind of a typical like what are you thinking? You're going out you're going out to Paris. You know, you're in the cafe for the night and you're sitting there and they've got the fires of the rioters in the background. While this nice couple's Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. Todd: just having their wine and their cigarettes. this is Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. Todd: Paris, France. I it's just shocking. Shocking. What what what the socialists have done to that country is unbelievable. I just that that's Yo, it's Carrie: That is that's so sad. Aww Todd: so and then President Macron, who's the president of France, he blamed it on Trump. He thought Trump was the problem. That's why That's why they're Yo, it's Carrie: it's Trump's fault? Todd: yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: That's nice. Todd: That's why they're all rioting. It's all Trump's fault. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: Let me find Al Sahid here. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: so that's Mike Rogers, Al Sahid. Where do we want to start? I got so many clips. This this I think is are you you're hearing a lot about this race, right? When you hear things. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Yes, I've been I I pay attention to this because you're all in my family's all in Michigan and so Todd: The Michigan peeps. Yo, it's Carrie: well, and I just can't b I just can't believe that he's running. And I have liberal friends and family posting positive things about him on social media. Todd: Do you? Yo, it's Carrie: yeah. Todd: I talked to one of my customers this week. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Okay. Todd: older older lady, super nice, but I'm sure boomer for sure, you know. And Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: and she kinda th felt like he was she's he was a right he was an okay guy, she thought. And I said, Well, Yo, it's Carrie: Okay, he's an okay guy. Todd: I mean as Muslim communists go. Here he is. Here Yo, it's Carrie: Yikes. Okay. Todd: here he th we're just gonna it's gonna be a little random while we go through these. this is him one of one of the one of the big problems Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Is this like a Said montage? Todd: that he has is he's got two big issues in Michigan. In my Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: opinion. We're gonna see if this if this holds out. I my prediction is that he's gonna lose, by the way, to Mike Rogers. I think somewhat significantly. Polls aren't showing Yo, it's Carrie: Yes, I I hope so. Todd: that, but I I think his one of his big problems is is blacks. Black voters in Michigan just simply are not big fans of voting for a Muslim communist. That's just how it is. I mean I'm not Yo, it's Carrie: Even liberal Detroit Metro? Todd: saying there aren't any, but I'm telling you that in in Detroit, usually the d in Michigan Yo, it's Carrie: In en masse Todd: the Democrats need and can usually plan on about ninety percent of the African American vote. And Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: I don't think he'll get fifty. I I I Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: got multiple clips of black people talking about it doesn't see 'cause the issue is it that if you're part of the black community, Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, what a yes. Todd: you've been the largest minority, basically, or you were until I think I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: think probably Mexican Latinos are now. The biggest the largest Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: minority in America. But the thing is you import all these Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: all these people from the darker people, Muslims, let's call them what they are, but they're a threat to because they they breed like frickin' rabbits, and they're a threat to the to the black community's share of this social pie. You know what I mean? To Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Todd: to date they don't feel like we've run out of other people's money yet. So Yo, it's Carrie: Got it. Todd: they they look at they look at at Dearborn and all these Muslims coming over here as a direct Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: threat, taking those snap dollars out of their pocket. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: D do you know what I mean? And that and they don't Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: trust them too. There's there's just a there's a lack of trust. Will sent me a big I don't I I don't know if I'm gonna get into it today, but he sent me a clip where some I don't know the exact story. There was a a black girl in Dearborn, Michigan, there was an accident And all the Muslims and the and there was fifty guys, black guys from Detroit, and it turned into this big altercation in the middle of Dearborn over this car accident. And you kinda nothing Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. shoot. Okay. Todd: I don't think happened. I don't think guns were fired or anything, but it was that kind of thing. So anyway, Al Sahid i is he's got an uphill climb with black voters and I think older Democrats. What I mean by that is the older Yo, it's Carrie: Older Democrats, sure. Todd: UAW retirees, you know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: They've retired from the GM stamping platter, they retired Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: from what used to be AC Delco, you know, whatever. Yeah. And they Yo, it's Carrie: Traditional Democrats. Right. Todd: just don't buy. They're old enough to remember when Muslim Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: communists were blowing things up over here. You know what I mean? And they just don't. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Well they're old enough to remember that communism is bad. Todd: Yeah. So I think he's got a big problem when it comes to those two groups. I think both I think those are what's gonna I I just don't he's Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Okay. Todd: got the youth vote, but I don't think it's enough to make up for those. I think he's gonna Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: now, Nikki, my wife, disagrees with me. She Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: gets most of her news on Facebook and thinks that he's gonna win. So we're gonna see. You guys are gonna get to judge, see who's right. But here he is with a Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. thank you. Morning. Todd: with an African American voter. Trying to Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: to woo her. They're they're having dinner and listen to the exchange. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: Ha ha ha. He's gonna go with the fried chicken. For some reason, he's like, I'll have the fried chicken, the watermelon, and the grape soda. Can I get Yo, it's Carrie: my gosh. Todd: your vote now? This is this is what these people this is what liberals I i it drives me crazy that the that that the African American community will vote for him because they s they think so little of them. Do you do you know what I mean? I just think Why why? You Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: you don't need the handouts. You need the people who are gonna empower your communities so that you can go out and you can like get in on the American dream like the rest of us. You know what I mean? You don't need Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Exactly. Todd: you don't need people like the Reverend Jesse Jackson to you know, just inflamed victimhood. You know what I mean? They just they they just that's just Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: not they need people like Thomas Sowell, people like Clarence Thomas. You know what I mean? There needs to be they Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Right. Todd: they culturally we've got I think that that the Great the Great Society and the New Deal did a lot of damage to the black culture, clearly. And and and we've got to do some fixing to where they get back to Where they were where you've got dads in the homes and you know what I mean? And and you've Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: got a solid middle class, which there is a growing black middle class, which is part of why the Democrats hold on them has weakened like it has. You know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: They're just starting to to make their way out of it. A lot of them are coming to Trump and or had and and I think probably'll stay with them. I I feel like. Yo, it's Carrie: Well, I think identity politics a as it as it f you know, blossomed and exploded on the left in the past ten years, I think that it's just, it's so is disingenuous the right word. And Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: I think I think there are a lot of people in the black community who see through it. Like even if they feel that that things aren't equal or that they've faced more challenges. they don't wanna be like they don't wanna be treated that way. You know what I mean? They don't wanna be taken for granted that way. There are a whole bunch of things that I think that identity identity politics backfired a little bit. Todd: I like to think that there's a turning. I think you're right. I think there's a turning within the black Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: community, within the Latino community, that it's it's away Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: from the victimhood and the identity politics and the BS and towards Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I think what they liked about Trump is hey, we're gonna be we're gonna make this country great. We're gonna be it's gonna be great Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: for you, it's gonna be good, we're just gonna we're gonna go full bore ahead into an amazing America. And I I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Todd: think they're and they they don't like illegal immigration either. Again, for some of the same reasons. You're you're importing Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: a bunch of people who are diluting the pool of benefits that that some of them get and I'm not saying across the board, I'm just saying that's something that you deal with. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm hmm. Right. No, I know what you mean. Todd: So here's Mike Rogers. Let's listen to a little bit of him in something of his, you know, we're down the stretch here, so he's making his closing arguments against Yo, it's Carrie: Can't believe how close it is. Todd: Dr. Abdul Muhammad al Sahid. Yo, it's Carrie: Is he a doctor? Todd: That's true. Remember we play was that last the last news we had, we played those clips of that Jewish Yeah, and they were all like, yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm, yeah. Yes. A couple weeks ago. I forgot about that. Yeah. Todd: What do you think, Kerry? Mike Rogers closing out. You Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Well I Todd: think he's closing strong? Yo, it's Carrie: he those words cl are are closing strong. I hope I hope that persuades some people who are not comfortable with their with the other option. I hope. Yeah. huh. Mm-hmm. Todd: I think that's the right play. I think that I listen, Mike Rogers is not a rock rib conservative like like Todd's world, but he might be he might be the only kind of squish Republican that we can get in Michigan right now, and so we take what we can get. You know what I mean? And I will say this. He he's he's been pretty strong. I Yo, it's Carrie: yeah, you can't you can't be far right and run it and successfully there. Todd: don't think like I think he's playing this right. I don't think Trump Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: is in Trump's barnstorming of the country he's doing, which Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I think is by and large helping him and helping Republicans, but there's certain places he's not going and I don't think he's coming to Michigan. Because Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: I they they don't want to make this race about Trump. They want to make this race about the crazy Muslim communist versus the old white guy who's kind of half Democrat and half Republican, and you'd be comfortable sitting down and having a beer with them, right? Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Who's mo yeah, who's moderate enough, regardless of the R next to his name. Yeah. He really does. Todd: He seems like he's from Michigan. And I'll say he doesn't seem like he's from Michigan. He seems like he's from Iran. So and I love the veiled racism to the extent that it's veiled. I'd like it to be less veiled. But I think that's a great way to go after this. I think that they're I think he's gonna win and I think he's taken the exact right tact, which is he's he's gone Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, it's a good approach. Todd: toward he's he's he's become central so that your your older UAW guys look at him and think, Yeah, this seems like a this seems like a pretty good guy. Don't you think? Yo, it's Carrie: I think so. I just wonder who sees that. I'm I'm always like, Who's watching that? Who's because I think people are just g like Nikki's watching this stuff on social media and they're like, no, everyone likes this likes the likes the Muslim Kami. Todd: Well, they're doing everything they can to to set the narrative. Listen to this guy. This guy's on the east side of the state. and Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. okay. Todd: he's talking about how Democrats today are not like Democrats of yesteryear. And Yo, it's Carrie: Isn't that true? Todd: yeah, I think you're this would be something that your mom, you know, the boomers would would feel big time because they remember John F. Kennedy. Like that was a different you know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. I feel so bad. I feel so bad for traditional Democrats. I feel like they they aren't being represented almost anywhere right now. Todd: So here's what this guy's saying. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm mm. Todd: What do you think, Gary? Yo, it's Carrie: I I would love to I don't remember her name, but I know her. I'd love to know what her response was to that. I wonder I wonder what was going through her mind hearing that. Todd: Dana the Bash, you mean? Was that who was doing it? Yeah, it was Dana the Bash. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Yeah. Uh-huh. Todd: Yeah, she was I got another one with her where she's just losing her mind. But no, I think that that's Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. I think that's a good a it's a fair assessment. Todd: I think it's a good close. I think that what I think seems to be happening to me is that Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: we we we played the remember that we played the clip a couple weeks ago of John Solomon talking about how generally by this and this was two weeks ago, but but generally Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: by October when Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: the incumbent party's gonna get really hammered, th those those opinions and things have have they're kinda set in. And we haven't Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: seen this this election, and I think the difference is People are pissed off about gas and they don't like being in a war, but I do Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: think that they've they've they've taken a a long hard look at the alternative and said they're crazy. I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: just can't like to vote for Muhammad al-Sahid is to vote to end your country. You know what I mean? And and now listen, I don't think that's gonna happen. I Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Not overnight, but it's but it's like a it's a really it's a big step to take. my gosh. Todd: The camel's nose is under the tent, is the point. Jafar. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: Anyway. but I I think that that has helped Republicans because they can they're they're just more normal. I mean they're just more normal. I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Todd: I wish we weren't in Iran. There's things that I wish we were deporting Yo, it's Carrie: I know. Todd: more people. But the fact of the matter is the borders closed. You look at you look at if you can recall what was happening under the corpse, Biden, the autopen, and Kamala, it was a nightmare. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: The borders wide open. just think about you had a trannies at the White House and gender mutilation and kids getting in the whole thing. It was just and America was just like this is too much. This is not who we are, I Yo, it's Carrie: It was just wild. Mm-hmm. Todd: think. And and so I think that that Al Sahid is is going to is gonna l what do you think, Carrie? Do you have any sense I know you're in Florida, you're not up here, but do you have any any sense at all in in things? Maybe not even that race, but in the race in general. What do you Yo, it's Carrie: Hm, no, I I don't I don't I don't know how I don't know Todd: You just you Yo, it's Carrie: how many seats there are up for grabs or anything like that. But you Todd: Well the House would be a an easier win for the Democrats than the Senate. The Senate map is not particularly favorable to Democrats this year. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: So they're fighting that. But then on the House side, you've also got remember with redistricting they added like they they s swapped Yo, it's Carrie: That's what I was gonna say. Todd: fifteen, sixteen seats. So that's gonna help Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: but I don't know. I'm not convinced that Republicans will hold the House. But if they hold the Senate Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: That'll be fine. It that'll that'll neuter somewhat what the house will do. They'll have a million Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: investigations and whatever and try to bring all Trump's people in and sit before him and be like, my god, you're a communist. You know what I mean, or whatever. Like they like they do. But I but they won't be able to be very effective with Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Todd: Trump holding the presidency and Republicans holding the Senate. This guy right here, in Yo, it's Carrie: Good. Mm-hmm. Todd: six seconds. I I played this for Dickie earlier this week when I saw it. I said, This is this to me, I I'm I'm this guy. And I feel like this is Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: Trump's entire Republican base. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: Here it is. Yo, it's Carrie: Wichita, Kansas. Todd: That was I think Kansas. Yeah, Kansas voter. Yo, it's Carrie: that's that is spa on. That's fantastic. Todd: And that's how I feel. I don't always love everything or everything, but I love Trump. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Todd: So and there's a and he's had the lines out the door for his rallies and so I th I think I think that the signs are good out there Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: that that there's at least here's a guy from Iowa. because Trump had a had a rally in Iowa this week. And Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: so this guy's from a farm family in Iowa and I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: think does a pretty good job of representing, you know, American values in the heartland. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: What do you think? I'd say Trump's message has penetrated. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, at least in Iowa. Todd: Mm-hmm. Yeah, well they that's his base. And you know what? In elections like this, it's a ba the Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Todd: these are base turnout elections. So Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Yeah, that's true. Todd: It's Yo, it's Carrie: So do you have voting early in Michigan? Like do you have early voting? Yeah. And do you do it or do you do it on on the day of okay. Todd: We do. Yeah. I have not ever done it. I don't do it, but I'm but that that also early voting if you look at different various states early Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: voting is is not favoring Democrats as heavily as it needs to for there to be a blue wave. And Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: mailing ballots which Which Democrats have of course gone all in on in COVID. They seem to Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: have they seem to have moved away from that. So there isn't nearly the Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: the absentee mail and ballot stuff. So they really Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: need to make it up in early voting because they always lose in day of voting. That's just how it goes. Yo, it's Carrie: I just I don't like that I don't like that they have any results or hints at results, turnout or whatever. I d I don't like that. I Todd: I agree, but Yo, it's Carrie: feel like that influences people in I don't want to say in an unfair way, but it's like just Todd: I don't like early voting. I don't like mailing ballots. other than Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: other than strictly controlled, people who really can't get out of the house or or they're out of out of the country. Whatever. They've they have reasons Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Sure. Yeah. Todd: they can't get there. And they and they say yeah. And they they used to make you prove it. But Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I know I wish we had single day paper ballots, national in fact I'd like to have a national holiday on election. Let let everybody take off work and let everybody get out there. You know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: Let everybody have no excuse to not get out and vote. Although I suspect that even if we did that, we'd find that it would bump turn out like three percent. I don't think it would do what we think it would do. I think people I get the day off. I don't think the day would be out. But Yo, it's Carrie: Well, I was gonna say that's that's the only reason I that's the only reason I think of doing early voting is 'cause it's easier to get it done without interfering with work and stuff. Todd: Right. Well and you don't know if you're gonna die. look, people are dropping like flies around you, so you wanna get out and get early voted while they can. So Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Voterly vote often. Todd: This maybe'll encourage you a little bit. John Stewart, formerly of the Nincha, he's looking old, right? He's looking he looks he looks nearly as old as Amy Acton. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. my gosh, I did not recognize him. He is I used to have such a crush on Jon Stewart. Todd: but he this might encourage you. I he doesn't seem to be as encouraged by all the Democrat optimism as as some Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: are. So let's hear what he has. He's talking I think with just his producers or something. She means the Republicans are nervous. That's who she's talking about. Just so know. Yo, it's Carrie: okay, thank you. Okay. Todd: What do you think, Gary? Yo, it's Carrie: that's the same question I ask myself about things, like Tel Rico. It's like, what the F is happening? Todd: He doesn't sound as as as encouraged that that the Democrats are gonna run through with a blue wave. You know what I mean? I I and I think Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Todd: he's right. He's right about the polling. The polling is is is is just it's horrible. It's not even in the realm most of the time. In fact I Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, unreliable. Yeah. Todd: I had I had a clip, man, did I save it, that said based on is this it? No. Based on Where the in if you if you go back a few elections and you and you look at the polling errors, I I I didn't save it, I guess, but it was essentially that the that Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Yeah, how's that look? Todd: the polling errors was at least four percent in favor of Democrats. So if they so what they did is they took some of the battleground state polls, Kansas, Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: Iowa, some of the places that in there and on every one of them, if they applied the the that four percent So so in in in past elections, the polls have said this person's gonna win by four, they end up winning by like three votes or something, or they lose. But it's basically Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Todd: a round of four point swing, and if they took that and they applied it to the battleground Senate races, Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: all of them would go Republican. So that's encouraging. Yo, it's Carrie: okay, gotcha. That's encouraging. Cool. Todd: it's gonna be a matter of whether people get out and vote. That's all I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: mean, that's what it is. It's can you let the lunatic like are you so upset with gas prices that you're gonna let the lunatics in? Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: Because I promise you your gas prices when they aren't gonna get any better. When did them when did gas prices ever get better under Democrats? Who caused California to have seven and eight dollar gas? Is it Trump? No, it was all the all the Democrats before him that have all these in fact in Michigan. Why is it fifty cents more a gallon in Michigan than in Indiana? Well, it's just gas taxes, that's all. So it's Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Exactly. Mm. Todd: one thing I saw, Elon Musk just said this. There's pressure right now. Donald Trump cut that deal with Putin, and he's putting a lot of pressure on Ukraine to end this war, to find a a Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: peace. between the the the Ukrainians and the and the Russians. And Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: Elon Musk just posted yesterday, he said on X, what's actually going on in Ukraine is that there is a massive incentive difference between the elites and the people. The former, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: the elites have grown very rich off the hundreds of billions flowing into Ukraine. While the latter's children, the people's children are constricted conscripted to die in trenches. So and he's a hundred percent that is just dead Yo, it's Carrie: I know. Todd: on. Yo, it's Carrie: Our funding our funding of that is just it's it's was used just so wrong. Todd: And well, and it's not just us. It's Europe. It's a that Yo, it's Carrie: But I Yeah. Todd: it's just hundreds of millions flowing in, and and they're just Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: nobody knows where half of it is even gone. It's just it we which we've been saying the whole time. All this is is a slush I didn't I have not understood why Trump didn't end it when he got in again right away. All this is Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: is a slush fund for the deep states. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: I mean, that's essentially what you're dealing with. So Trump is working to Yo, it's Carrie: I know, I wonder why. Todd: to to fix that, to correct that. So I I don't know. Yo, it's Carrie: I heard the Pope and Melania got involved this week. That's what I heard. It it wasn't for all of Ukraine. Todd: Really? You mean I I d I didn't know. I I I saw something? Yo, it's Carrie: It was like one's like one area or city or something and I was like Todd: I I saw that there was some ceasefire that Melania got in some area. I I and I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: honestly I didn't get the details on it, but I but I did see that the po the Pope was involved somehow. I think you're right about that. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Me neither. But I thought it was like the Pope. Mm-hmm. Todd: I don't know exactly how or what the thing was, but but listen Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: anytime there's a ceasefire anywhere, good news, good news because it's only the people, it's us regular people. Who get killed. We get to sacrifice our lives for the elites to get rich. So anytime there's a cessation of war, it's usually a good thing for us. Except Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Okay. Todd: in America when the war is for our own country, and we have to get and in fact, here's Alyssa Slotkin. Now she is a senator from Michigan. She's the other senator from Michigan not involved in a race right now. She Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: two years ago beat Mike Rogers by something like a hundred thousand votes. It was a close election. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: And of course, she was polled to beat him by four or five points. So but listen Yo, it's Carrie: Got it? Todd: to this. That she was formerly with the CIA. and you can she'll tell you exactly what she thinks about conservatives in this clip. This clip got this clip generated a lot of of backlash for her. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: So she wants to deter people from public service, using the power of Yo, it's Carrie: With Trump. Mm-hmm. Todd: the federal government, investigating them, threatening them. She wants people to think that's that's what she's saying. She wants she Yo, it's Carrie: okay. That's Todd: wants to put the other party in jail so that people don't want to take part in the other side of politics. Yo, it's Carrie: thank you. I like, yeah, what are the deterrent messages methods rather? that's interesting. Todd: And that to her seems perfectly normal. I all she's Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: doing is saying out loud what they've always thought. I don't you know what I mean? That that's the thing. There's nothing new in this. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. That's crazy. Todd: But yeah. What did Yo, it's Carrie: I'm amazed over and over again when these things pop up and you think they they just don't want people to think for themselves. They don't want Democrats, they don't want people to they don't believe they're smart enough to think for themselves. They don't want to allow them to and they just wanna control everybody. I hate it. I hate it. That's all. That's right. my gosh. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. For kindergarten circle time? Todd, can we do a coffee refill? Okay. Sure. Todd: We're back. Thanks, guys. Yo, it's Carrie: Cheers. Todd: Cheers. Okay. Do you remember we we talked about this AI thing? And I told you about this video I watched called the steep part of the curve or something of the steep part. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: I don't know if you recall this. Anyway, this person or someone, I don't know who it was, asked one of the AIs. I don't I can't remember which AI. Claude, Opus, who knows? Something. Some AI. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: And they asked that AI. To predict to make a short video predicting the next 50 years. And so this is this Yo, it's Carrie: I love this. I'm scared, but I love it. Todd: is the video. It's a four-minute video. I think it's worth us watching it. Yo, it's Carrie: It's like All right, let's do it. Todd: and this is what AI says is gonna happen. I don't know. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: I'm I'm a little skeptical, but we shall see. Yo, it's Carrie: Do they have any comments on Amy Acton? Todd: Are you ready? I'm I'm not ready either. Yo, it's Carrie: I'm not I feel like I feel like I'm on a roller coaster, literally going up the roller coaster. The big Todd: So you got a little kid touching a T V. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: And cancer was cured. shit. Todd: Robots. Yo, it's Carrie: no. Todd: That's encouraging, just in time. Before what? Yo, it's Carrie: Just in time. Before what's the what's the name of the Terminator Company? Todd: I don't believe that at all. That is such propaganda by AI. Anyway. They AI will never make art. They can't make art. All they can do is copy art that's already been made. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Yeah. I think so. Mm mm. I agree. Todd: Anyway. Yo, it's Carrie: Ha ha Yikes. Todd: It's like Meryl Streep voicing the new Aslan. Did you hear that in the new Narnia movie? They're gonna have Meryl's they've transed Aslan. They're gonna have Meryl Yo, it's Carrie: Why? Todd: Streep I don't know. It they the the first trailer came out and Yo, it's Carrie: Why I'm I'm sorry, I don't care who but why is it a woman? Todd: it has caused a bloodbath. Like they're just hemorrhaging money and they're worried that they've put two hundred million dollars into this and it's gonna be just woke crap and nobody's you know. Yo, it's Carrie: Well, it's terrible. Cyberdyne is the company in the Todd: Mm. Yo, it's Carrie: Terminator. What? Todd: Wow. Yo, it's Carrie: That's philosophical. What Todd: You're not ready, Carey. Yo, it's Carrie: Elon's like, yes. Todd: This is Matthew. That's who they're talking about. They're talking about Matthew, right? Wasn't he born in twenty twenty six? Yeah? Yo, it's Carrie: Right? Yep. Twenty twenty. No, he was born in twenty four. Todd: five, yeah. Same thing. Yo, it's Carrie: He's two now. Steep part of the curve. Todd: Kumbaya. Yo, it's Carrie: Freedom Freedom to choose. Do you want to work or be a lazy ass? Is it Todd: Wow. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: Hold on, Carrie. That's the steep part, Kerry. Are you ready? For the sun to wear a ring of mirrors? No. Yo, it's Carrie: What do you think, Todd? Do you think this is accurate? Todd: I'm quite certain it's not accurate. The such things probably never are. Yo, it's Carrie: That is funny. Todd: But I do think it's interesting. I mean, I'm sure that some things Yo, it's Carrie: It's interesting. Todd: could happen, you know. I I don't Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I don't exactly know, but I think that's Interesting. What do you think? I just thought I thought the video was fascinating that AI created this. Yo, it's Carrie: I'd like it's the video's fascinating. Video it it it has the makings of an interstellar two or something is what it feels like. Todd: Opus five point five made a video predicting the next fifty years. That's what it was. It was Opus. So Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. I'm curious what the prompts were, what the parameters were, 'cause I know it wasn't just left 'cause Todd: Well right. Yo, it's Carrie: because there's a lot of there's there's an arc in there, there's a there's a redeeming, you know. The important thing was people could choose the thing Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: that I'll tell you the th one of the things that stood out to me in this is when it said every like every lullaby and it said every argument And I'm thinking, no, is AI collecting all the stupid BS of trolls on social media posting just hor treating each other horribly on platforms like everywhere? I mean that that that's it. Todd: Super intelligence. Trump changed the name. Stupid. I thought that was I just just like that was sometimes Trump I love Trump. Like yeah, Yo, it's Carrie: Wait, did Trump change the name of AI? Todd: they changed it to super intelligence, supposed just you know, he's like my wife. I don't like him as Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Yeah. Todd: much some days. I always love him, but sometimes you know. Yo, it's Carrie: I like the artificial way better. I actually don't like the superintelligence at all. No. Yeah. it's helpful. Todd: I don't think any of it is intelligence. It's all just pattern matching. It's not anything like Yo, it's Carrie: My printer is not working. It's flooding like the pink is flooding in there. I've got a I I use AI to help Todd: I love it, as like a glorified Google. Yo, it's Carrie: help me how to unclog my s my blue cyan cartridge. that's cool, but Todd: Now we're gonna hear the other side of the this is John Stossel. This is one Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: of those clips that's a little on the longer side, it's about six and a half minutes. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: I think we'll stick with it for a lot of it. And that we don't do this with many clips. John Stossel is special. But he puts out pretty good Yo, it's Carrie: He's usually worth it. Todd: stuff, and we'll probably stop it along the way. But he the the he's talking about AI, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: and I wanted to get to this four weeks ago, maybe. I don't know. But anyway, Yo, it's Carrie: okay. I'm glad we're here. Todd: I wanted to do the steep part of the curve and I wanted to do this. Because I think this is gonna kinda present the other side of it. And my Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: guess would be we'll be somewhere in the middle, but you know. Nothing's ever quite as amazing as they tell us it will be. Yo, it's Carrie: You mentioned yeah, you mentioned this two years ago or two years. Sorry. Two weeks ago. It feels Todd: Two years ago. Yo, it's Carrie: like a couple of years No, two years ago. Two weeks ago. You mentioned the AI thing. Glad you're getting to it. What's he got to say? Todd: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Okay, here's John Stostel. Let's hear what he has to say. The state park. Okay. Yo, it's Carrie: Wait, can you go back? That was awesome. Todd: Yeah. Stop AI. Here he is. Yo, it's Carrie: That's funny. Todd: I didn't know that humans had merged with orcs. You hear a lot about that. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm. Mm. Todd: Stupid. I wanna break in here. Do you remember when we talked about refineries, how the problem was with refineries in the US? And Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I said I would love to see Trump do something with the Defense Production Act. JD Vance just announced that they're doing that with refineries. And Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Todd: and I don't have the clip for it, but I wanted to tell people that because we had just talked about it a week or or a show or two ago. Yo, it's Carrie: And the refineries are they impact the the fuel. Todd: Right. 'Cause America has a is exporting oil, but we don't have because we haven't built a new refin refinery in I don't know twenty or thirty years, and Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Got it. Todd: a lot of our refineries aren't necessarily built for the lighter or for the heavier crude or the lighter sweet crude that's coming. I can't remember what it is. I'm not an oil guy, but you know what I mean. There there's two different sorts. Like Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Mm-hmm. Todd: Venezuela's a heavier crude that works better in the refineries we have, but when we Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: we do the fracking, that's a lighter And we don't have the the factory or the refineries for that. But any th they're they're gonna speed refinery and they're gonna use it and I I was happy when I saw that 'cause I had just commented on it. Yes, hopefully. Yo, it's Carrie: Refinery warp speed, is that what we're doing? There you go. Can it build itself? Todd: Yeah. With our robots. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. With hands. Todd: What do you think, Gary? Yo, it's Carrie: Well, again, it's like you you have to be involved. You can't just be like, I d I don't want I wouldn't want Todd: Right. Yo, it's Carrie: a paper that I researched for two months in college to be just graded in in t ten seconds by some AI AI click. You know what I mean? I so I don't know. I again, Todd: Right. Yeah. No, I do know what you mean. Yo, it's Carrie: but then again, I will like I'll create an agenda. I use AI at work, I use like approved platforms that we're allowed to use. Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: I'll take notes from several conversations that we've had with a client and it'll bullet out like what do we need to do? What do they need to do? And it's it's very efficient because sure, I mean it can be used as a tool. It's a tool, yeah, Todd: It's real helpful when it comes to that, yeah. And that's the monkey work that they're talking about a little bit. Yo, it's Carrie: it's a tool, not a replacement. It's just interesting that he used grading as a whatever anyway. Todd: I what did you think about that steep part of the curve where they were like every child had their tutor that knew him better than anyone? Was that creepy? Yo, it's Carrie: was like, that is creepy AF and there's no way every parent would be like, heck yeah, I'll just let AI tutor my child. Well, people are stupid, maybe they would, I don't know. Todd: You you sound You sounded like Cartman right then. No way! Yo, it's Carrie: Mam My tutor Todd: Yes. He's right. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Mm. Todd: Hi! I need another house! Yeah. Of anything. Yo, it's Carrie: He wants to control it though. Todd: yeah. Lyssa Slotkin wants to use it against young Republicans who are thinking about working for Trump. She wants to find Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: you and put you in the camps that we should be building for the Muslim intruders. There's Terminator. Yo, it's Carrie: Yes, Cyberdine. I swear. Todd: Especially if you're a pre born fetus. Been real good. Yo, it's Carrie: Especially if you have a tutor grading all your papers. Why he look so ill? Todd: China listen, can we just say China lies about everything? I Yo, it's Carrie: Well Yeah. Todd: don't believe China has a billion people. They're liars about everything. Their entire economy Yo, it's Carrie: Think so? Todd: is a house of cards. There's a reason that Trump has been in office and has been able to go around the world doing whatever he wants, bombing whoever he wants, because nobody, nobody, not China, not Russia, not anybody. is anywhere near the United States when it comes to our military or our or our technology or anything else. It's all there it's all lies. We've never seen anything proven that China can do anything. Except build shitty stuff and send it over here. Right. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: That looks like AI video to me. Yo, it's Carrie: Those are not real. Yeah, it's like that's animated. Todd: See this bugs me too because I don't like the fear mongering about China. That's what we get. We got Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: we get the surveillance state with the fear mongering about the terrorist. It's just Yo, it's Carrie: There yeah, there's enough to be afraid of about China. There's enough. Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: You don't need to make up shit. Right? Todd: They don't have any i th they're fake robots dancing. Yo, it's Carrie: Where Todd: What do you think, Carrie? There was John Stossel on A I felt like that Yo, it's Carrie: I Todd: was a good kind of book into that steep part of the curve thing. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, I think that's really good. I'm sorry, I'm trying to find something to to send you. Because you need to show this. You need to show this. Todd: What are you sending it on? Yo, it's Carrie: On X, does that work? Okay. Todd: on X yeah, yeah yeah. I just gotta find my I gotta find my little chat thing. There it is. Yo, it's Carrie: So I'm la I'm sorry, I'm laughing about the I agree with you on the fear mongering mongering. I'm laughing about the just the Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: sorry, laughing about the Chinese robot video. I can't get over that. It's like they released this video. It's like, that is animated. It's a hundred percent not real. And I've just sent you did you see it? Is that why you're laughing? Are you just laughing at the ch This is where AR yeah, Todd: Yeah, it's coming up right now. Here's Carrie's video, everybody. You wanna watch this if you can. Yo, it's Carrie: this is where AI v robots are function wise. Todd: There is Yo, it's Carrie: Ha ha. What? Todd: She's fighting with the straw robot. There's a robot trying to give straws to people Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: throwing them. This lady's fighting the robot. that was funny. Yo, it's Carrie: It's just the first one I found. There are so many funny videos out there of these of these robots, these AI, and they're doing something. And then all of a sudden they just faceplant and slide. they're just they completely whack out and it's like Todd: Super intelligence. Yo, it's Carrie: it's like and yet they have what, a hundred and fifty perfectly synchronized Todd: What's one hundred and fifteen? Yo, it's Carrie: in China. It's like, no, they do not. It's hilarious. Todd: Did you see Elon Musk's flying car this week? Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, what is that about? Todd: That was cool as it was mostly just rocket thrusters built in, so it's not really thrying. Yeah, it just kinda could jump over Yo, it's Carrie: It's more like a lev a levitating like a levitating car. Todd: things and flip and stuff with the thrusters. But it was still pretty s but still pretty sweet. Can I get that road legal? Can I just like jump over a couple semis? Yo, it's Carrie: Can I just skip this traffic jam? That's a riot. Todd: What do you think about SI, AI, whatever the hell we're calling it? I don't even think it's intelligence, but what do you think about it? Yo, it's Carrie: What's no. That's why that's why I think artificial is a better name for it. yeah. Todd: I also read something that said that we have to i that because of see this is what I think is happening, is I think that here it is. This was posted Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: by Unusual Whales on X and it says to justify today's data center build out, AI Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: would need to bring in about three point five trillion a year by twenty thirty two. per a new Brookings paper. That's 8.8% of US GDP, nearly as much as Americans Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: spend on food and far more than they spend on energy, which is five percent. The point is they're they're not doing this. The the data center boom in order to justify Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. It in order they have to do that in order to do what? In order. Todd: the amount of spending that's happening right now. See I actually think the data center boom is just a a a somewhat of a prop to prop up our economy like the dot com boom did because our economy's Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Todd: not in great shape right now. So that's where we're that's where everybody's throwing all the money now. And it wouldn't surprise Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: me in ten years if all these data centers we built aren't worth a damn because we're on the moon or something or out in space because you don't need cooling out in space. You know what I mean? And so I just Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Okay. Todd: don't it we're throwing a lot of money at something that I think is I mean whatever. You know. Yo, it's Carrie: I know, again, there's there's Todd: It wouldn't be the first time, but Yo, it's Carrie: so many there's so many moving parts, it's like and it's hard to know what's true. The water thing. Todd: Are you afraid of AI? Do you think it's gonna Yo, it's Carrie: not Todd: steal your job? Yo, it's Carrie: No. Todd: Turn your grandkid into a Muslim jihadist. Yo, it's Carrie: No, I don't. I don't. no, I don't. I think at least the people I talk to are just eyes wide open about it. They utilize Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: it in either kind of silly ways or in like useful ways, tools like to figure, you know, I'll look up something how to unclog my printer cart ink cartridge, that sort of thing. Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: but I don't know how you feel about it, but we're so anti AI creative stuff here. Todd: Yeah, I am too. Yo, it's Carrie: Like we see ads on T V and we literally are just like like we don't even watch We're we're just like, ugh, like it's AI. I heard a song Todd: That's kinda how I felt. My my our buddy Will sent me, you know, he's been he's been delving into poetry since Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: he retired and he he found that you can get on AI and make songs out of and he's like, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: my god, this is like a real song and I'm like I mean, I get how it could be kinda fun if you're treating it like a video game like that. But let's Yo, it's Carrie: It's cool. Mm-hmm. Yes. Todd: not pretend that this is comparable to real artists. You know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: Well right. And I'm curious how your singer, songwriter, daughter feels about it, because okay. Todd: She won't even listen to it. Yo, it's Carrie: See, that's the thing, I don't want to listen to it. I d I had a friend send me a video with this very inspirational song and I'm listening to it. I'm like, this song, it's it's a someone used the song in his video. So Todd: Okay. Yo, it's Carrie: I'm like, this is cool. And I so I went to look up the creator of the song. And it's a guy in his car, you know. lip syncing and I'm thinking this song is AI. Sorry, I've got something flying here. This song is AI. And I was like, no, it was catchy and I liked it. But I'm like, yeah. So I'm like, I Todd: Yeah. No, I don't listen to AI stuff. I don't read. Yo, it's Carrie: don't wanna, I don't wanna listen further to his other stuff because I'm like, it's to me that's fake. Todd: I use I I use I use AI as a glorified Google and then I use it Yo, it's Carrie: Mm. Todd: I have it suggest the titles for the episodes and descriptions because I don't feel like going through and it's good at that kind of stuff, But it has zero to do Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Yeah, it pulls out highlights and stuff. Todd: with any of our any of the show. The only thing Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: that AI has anything to do with is putting it out on YouTube and the algorithms because I figure it knows the algorithms better than it is an algorithm. I know. It must know what they like and what they don't like. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. So Todd: I don't know. Yo, it's Carrie: so what do you think do you think that the way we feel about this is across our population, or do you feel like it's just because we're ta we're surrounded by creative people who all are like minded? Todd: No, I think that we're I actually think that there's a lot of people that are not even have have barely even tapped AI to do anything in their life. it's Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: weird because as a as a I I'm a builder so I do remodeling and those types Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: go out and I and I so I've gotten to where I'll put the entire scope of a job, as much as I can, into and I'll say what would it what would a normal price be for this job by a contractor in Michigan, whatever. Yo, it's Carrie: Sure. Glorified Google. Todd: Go if I Google, I want make sure that I'm in the ballpark. I I I usually I'll go through and and price things myself, but then I'll compare myself and just make sure does it seem like I'm right? Now even that's not Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: entirely reliable because it it all depends on what prompts that you put in. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: but at least it g it lets me know if I'm in the ballpark. But I get the Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: feeling that a lot of customers don't even look at that. And I always think that every customer must like run through AI, but I don't I don't think a lot of people are using AI all that much any yet. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I think you're still in the curiosity phase, maybe internet was in the early nineties. where there's some Yo, it's Carrie: Sure. Mm-hmm. Todd: people using it and there's some people who are like, This is gonna change everything. And in some ways it did. But Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: but it didn't it didn't change everything. It just, you know, in some ways it Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: made things better, in some ways it made things worse. I mean, you got the social medias, everybody's fighting, people don't have as much Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: peace in their life. Smartphones were the same way. And I expect that Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Todd: I expect that AI will be the same thing. I expect that it won't be this amazing s thing, but it will be something of a steep part of a curve and it will automate some things. I ran I had a I had an echo stress test the other day, an echocardiogram stress test, which Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: I hadn't I don't know if I've ever had one, but about ten years ago, I I had a whole workup done on my Yo, it's Carrie: the stress test. Got it. Okay. Todd: on my heart because I got a a family history where bitches be droppin'! Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Yeah, really. Don't don't be dropping Todd. Okay. Todd: And and and so anyway they did a heart workup. But so I get it back now now now of course you get your results back like an hour later. As soon as they're available and they hit your my chart or whatever the thing is. But I mean what am I gonna what am I gonna make out of any of this? It all sounds okay, I guess, maybe. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Yeah, you get a no you get a notification. But it's in Doctor Speak. Yeah. yeah. Todd: So I I photo or I didn't I screenshot the Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: pages and Because I couldn't figure out a way to print them onto a PDF, even though there might be one. It's just I couldn't find one. So I screenshot the pages and I fed it into Grok. And I said, What's it What's this? And they said, No, it's a Yo, it's Carrie: Yep. I do this every time, by the way. Yep. Todd: pretty good overall pretty good report, you know, whatever. And Yo, it's Carrie: Good. Todd: which I figured. My doctor probably would call me. They didn't Yo, it's Carrie: Grock didn't say you're gonna be dropping. Todd: send me home in a life vest. So I figure in my family that's a positive. So But yeah, so you would use it for things like that. But I don't Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Todd: I I don't I think it'll be like the internet and like everything else. It'll be. I don't think it's gonna change our lives wildly. I don't expect we're gonna start living two hundred years necessarily. But Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. I know. That's Todd: maybe. Amy Acton looks like she's 150 years old. So I mean, you know, she's on her way. Yo, it's Carrie: Those red leather pants are looking mighty good. She's like, Yes. That's so funny. Yeah. Todd: How about this, Gary? We talked just to end with, and this isn't even really a funny thing, I just happen to see this out there. We talked about the Cornell 7 and all that stuff a week ago Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: or or I'm a show or two ago. And Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I just as an update on that, Cornell University bans all fraternity parties after sexual assault lawsuit and seeks more systemic change. So Cornell University has taken steps in response to nationwide criticism over a sexual assault lawsuit. all fraternity parties have been banned. What do you think of that? Yeah. All fraternity so Yo, it's Carrie: Really? Todd: Cornell has just decided to become even more fun. Yo, it's Carrie: I'm like, I think instead of sucking all of the fun out of college, I think maybe they should simply enforce the hey, don't r don't sexually assault anyone. Or or Todd: You know what? They could they could have a chapel service once a week. Maybe that would cause sexual assaults to go down. You know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: Maybe don't have, you know, don't maybe crack down on the drugs on campus or whatever. I I wow. Yeah, because no parties means no sex. Todd: when you listen to what happened on the with the with the Cornell seven thing, do Yo, it's Carrie: What idiots Yeah. Todd: you think you were in a sorority when you were in college way back in the day? A Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Todd: hundred and fifty years ago, Carrie was in a sorority. Nah, just kidding. But the but wasn't I mean, I'm not saying that in your sorority necessarily, but fraternities and sororities have s have a certain reputation and this has been going on like this isn't my god, a girl went to a fraternity and had sex. this is this is the craziest thing that's ever happened, right? Like this has happened before. Maybe Yo, it's Carrie: Right. Right. Todd: it's happened with seven guys before. I don't know. It wouldn't be Yo, it's Carrie: Maybe, maybe. Todd: shocking in our society, I don't think. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. I don't I didn't know of anyone having sex with seven guys, but yeah, sex happened. There were parties. We were supposedly a we were a dry campus, supposedly. Todd: Yeah. Yeah there were parties. Isn't that part of college, growing up, you know? Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, it's again, it's why you have to you know, you have to be careful. Todd: Yeah. you you've gotta let I I don't know. It's just this this whole response of we're just gonna shut everything down. Just to me it I I you know what it reminds me of growing up in a really conservative Christian environment like I did. Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Todd: And they're just being craziness like say you'd have a a a person, a teenager who would sneak out and go see some girl or go on a date or something, then Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: like the parents, these conservative Christian parents, they just lock down all the harder. And I just always Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Yeah. Todd: thought that was the wrong response. I just thought, you know, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: need to teach kids how to handle freedom. And part of handling freedom is failure to handle it. You know? Yo, it's Carrie: Yes. well said. How to handle freedom. Yeah. Todd: So Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, everyone, I have a I have a girlfriend who we were at a fraternity party and I wasn't at I wasn't in this particular room at the time, but she was in, you know, in a fraternity house, the party will migrate like there will be groups in a bedroom. So again, this is where they live, but there'd be like Todd: Okay. Right, right, right. Yo, it's Carrie: a bar in the guy's bedroom. It's it's not like Todd: I've heard of this, in Michigan State. Guys love bars in their bedrooms and stuff. Kinda funny. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, this this was not like it's it going into a guy's room in the fraternity house wasn't going in and like sitting on his bed and looking at his desk next to his bed. It was like it Todd: Right, right. Yo, it's Carrie: there were gatherings in the bedrooms, okay? Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: And she was in one of these rooms and there was a bathroom connected to the room and she excused herself to use the the bathroom and when she came out he had clear the the guy who lived there had cleared the room. Todd: so she knew what was coming. Yo, it's Carrie: And she she found herself alone in a bedroom with this guy and she got the hell out of there quickly. Todd: Yeah, of course she did. Yo, it's Carrie: so you know, stuff happens. I mean, he obviously had some plans. I don't know I don't know how forceful he would have been, but that was pretty scary. It was a pretty Todd: Most of these college guys aren't gonna Yo, it's Carrie: scary thing. Todd: Yeah. But most of these guys you don't want to put yourself in a bad situation. But don't you feel like most college Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, and she was like, shit, and got out. Todd: guys if you are like I'm leaving, we're not doing this, they're not gonna force you down you know what I mean? That that generally Yo, it's Carrie: Yes, mo yeah, most yes, absolutely. Todd: I'm not saying you shouldn't get out of the environment. My point is Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: resist the devil and usually he flees. You know what I mean? Yo, it's Carrie: Yes. I I know what you mean. Yeah. thank God nothing happened. But I'm just saying like this stuff it's it's really about it's about teaching, like you said, teaching we need to teach our kids Todd: We've had plenty of scandals in the Catholic Church with the priest. Well plenty in the Protestant churches with the pastors too, abusing kids. We don't Yo, it's Carrie: Uh-huh. Todd: then shut down the churches. We don't shut down vacation bible school. Yo, it's Carrie: Right. No more praying. No more praying. I know. It's it's a weird it's a weird text. So Todd: I don't like that response. Yo, it's Carrie: I don't either. It's well, it's what it is is it's a grand gesture, but it's completely it's gonna be completely ineffective and pointless. Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: It's just it's so it's so hollow. It's like why do you even bother? Yeah. Okay. Todd: I think we're gonna end with this w with just a little shot back. This is a short little Yo, it's Carrie: on Al Jazeera. Todd: this is a chick who's talking about Al Sahid in Michigan. Yo, it's Carrie: in Detroit my gosh, Al Jazeera is reporting on this? Interesting. Todd: Yeah, you'll see why. It's pretty funny. This this nineteen year old girl. Yo, it's Carrie: no. Todd: Not Muhammad. I promise you Mike Rogers' middle name is not Muhammad. Yo, it's Carrie: Wait, I don't think that's like any different than Todd: Any Yo, it's Carrie: the L C portion of his name. my gosh. That's hysterical. Todd: I thought that chick was great. He won't even use his real name. you find Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. Todd: you find the most rube like WT Michiganders Yo, it's Carrie: Sassy and confident she is with it too. my gosh. Wow. Todd: He doesn't he's not even using his real name. What's this guy doing? He doesn't wear a turban. Everybody knows he wears a turban at home. Why does his face look like that? Anyway, guys. Carrie, Yo, it's Carrie: it's funny time. Todd: we're closing our our last show before the election. What's your prediction? Yo, it's Carrie: Wow. Todd: You got anything for us? Yo, it's Carrie: I I hope that the American people everywhere, even traditional Democrats, resist socialism. Amen. Todd: Amen. So that's that's sweet. do Yo, it's Carrie: Ha ha Todd: you think that the Yo, it's Carrie: faith I have faith that we have freedom baked in I would like I would like world peace and yes Todd: It's like it's like asking a Miss America contestant. They're like, I just want world peace. Do you do you think that either the house Yo, it's Carrie: And free health care for everyone Todd: Is the House and the Senate gonna stay Republican? Or are the Democrats gonna win? Is there gonna be a blue wave? What's your gut tell you? Down in Jacksonville, Florida. Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. My gut says there will not be a blue wave. That's as far as I'm going to go. I'm not sure, but I'm gonna say that I don't I don't believe I don't believe it. Todd: Okay. You're not sure who's gonna win what. AI hasn't told you yet. You're waiting You're waiting for your mentor who knows you better than any everyone to tell you. Yo, it's Carrie: My tutor My political tutor who knows me better than anyone. Okay, so predictions. So Todd: It's a steep part of the curve, guys. Yo, it's Carrie: predictions, no blue wave, but I don't know. And I'm really pulling for Michigan and Michigan in there in those races and Ohio. Good luck everyone. And us. I should, you know. Todd: I predict that I think that the Republicans will hold the Senate. I suspect Yo, it's Carrie: What do you think? Okay. Todd: the House will be close but but maybe maybe we'll lose or maybe it i you know what, if it's close enough I don't know if matters, but I I Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Okay. Todd: predict that that there's a good chance that we'll lose the House by a seat or two. It won't be crazy, but then then that Yo, it's Carrie: Oof. Okay. Todd: doesn't matter with Democrats 'cause A one person win like a one seat win to them is the same as a fifty seat, and they're gonna grab your kids and start trying to chop off their bits and be that's what they do. So that's my prediction. Hide your kids, hide your wives. They're raping everybody up in here. no, I so I think Republicans will win. Yo, it's Carrie: My gosh, I hope not. I hope not. Yikes. No parties allowed. Todd: I think that in in Michigan where I live, I Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: think that Mike Rogers will win. He will beat the Muslim communists because he's not even using his real name. Don't you think you should have to use your whole name if you're gonna run for Senate? And he's ordering fried chicken and grape Yo, it's Carrie: What's Mike's Mike Rogers' middle name? Todd: soda, and it's just the whole thing is just it's it's important taste. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: I think black people have some of the best food anywhere in the world in soul food. And you should order some real soul food that they make that's absolutely amazing, like collard greens, like all the amazing things. Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah? You like that? Todd: Yes, I really love it. Anyway, I love Southern soul food. Of course I am married to a southern woman, so that's probably part of it. Yo, it's Carrie: that's true, that's true. Todd: also I think that in Michigan at least, Jocelyn Benson will be elected ahead of John James. I don't think that the Republican will win. I Yo, it's Carrie: Okay. Todd: think it I think people are gonna split. I think you're gonna have people go by I don't know what'll happen with the state house and and all that. But I think that you're gonna see a Democrat win the governor and you're gonna see Mike Rogers win the Senate is what I think is gonna Yo, it's Carrie: okay. Todd: happen in Michigan, just because of the way we are. Yo, it's Carrie: I don't know. I th I would just real quick. You've had a Democrat governor for a while. Todd: Yeah, and it should switch, but John James is so weak. Yo, it's Carrie: I feel like darn. Okay. Todd: honest to God, I'm not excited about voting for I haven't thought about John James in weeks. I he's just not I I was not excited about him. No. He's run for Yo, it's Carrie: Mhm. Okay. He doesn't light a fire. Yeah. Todd: three times in Michigan. He's a perennial loser. Just not it doesn't do it for me. Yo, it's Carrie: Man, that's so that's so unfortunate because yeah, it's like too long under under Democrat I Todd: I agree. Yo, it's Carrie: mean just look at the the taxes and but aren't your roads perfect and your education strong? What Todd: You know what you know what Wetmer decided to do? I I swear, I'm like driving around Michigan and I'm like she waited until the final year of her Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: of when she was governor to do Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: fix all of the roads in Michigan at once and every place you try to go is under construction. And I'm Yo, it's Carrie: Under construction. Todd: like, my lord, why can't I get anywhere? Yo, it's Carrie: She thought all the orange would be would be suitable for the season, the Halloween season. Wow. Todd: She thought that'd be great for an election season, I guess. But anyway, well, thank you for joining us, guys. Hey, we're hoping the election goes well. By the time Yo, it's Carrie: Thank you. Good luck. Todd: you hear from us next, we will be a week post-election and we will have all of our post-election analysis. Join us for Yo, it's Carrie: All right. Todd: Beers with Jesus. That's the other show that we do. We just walk through the stories of the Bible, and Yo, it's Carrie: Tomorrow. Mm-hmm. Todd: we love it. We're in we're going through Abraham right now. And if that sounds boring, Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, in Genesis. Todd: because this happened to me when I was doing my s my echo stress testing, my the Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Todd: nurses were talking to me about pot because I had my Beers of Jesus sweatshirt on and then they were Yo, it's Carrie: okay. Todd: they were asking me about it. And we were talking about it, and it occurred to me that I don't think I'm a very good at selling the show to people. Like I should be better at it. Like I'm a good salesman, Yo, it's Carrie: I don't know. Todd: but I'm not very good at selling my own show and why they need like to listen and and whatever. And I thought I need to get better at it. Because I really think it's different than you get at all f from a lot of a a lot of shows. The way that we approach it. Yo, it's Carrie: It is. You're right. I think focusing on how different it is is important. Todd: We love the stories and we focus on the stories and we get into some other things. I don't think we soft pedal anything. I just think that the way we go about it by focusing on stories enables the word it it maybe the hope would be it enables people to see Jesus in the Bible in a way that they haven't before. Maybe make it feel a little bit more approachable. I think that people like Yo, it's Carrie: yeah, that's a good way of saying it. Todd: and feel like it's too much sometimes. Well, if you just are with us, you could take every show is almost self-contained. Now we Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Todd: we're referencing wider stories that we're dealing with, but by the end of that show you would know that story and that chapter pretty well. I feel like Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah, I think so. Todd: if you listen to us all through Mark or all through Acts, you have a pretty good feel Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: for Mark and Ax. In a way that you otherwise wouldn't, don't you think? Yo, it's Carrie: Definitely. I I think I like you c how you calling it approachable. And I think also it can maybe dispel some of the, you know, preconceived notions or intimidation, that kind of thing, because it's just Todd: Yeah. Yo, it's Carrie: so what whatever whatever is holding you back from approaching the Bible, whether you feel like it's intimidating or you feel like, I got, you know, I it rubbed me the wrong way when I was raised in such and such a Todd: Right. Yo, it's Carrie: church or whatever, I feel like we're cutting through all of that. Todd: Yeah, but we don't you don't see the Sunday show when you focus on the stories like we've done, Yo, it's Carrie: Mm-hmm. Todd: I feel like you all of all of the Sunday show differences become somewhat immaterial because we're we're focusing just so much back on the Bible, the stories, and Jesus and and Carrie's Catholic, I'm God only knows what, a Christian of some sort. But Yo, it's Carrie: A variety of things. Todd: But but I just think it works. So listen, guys, Yo, it's Carrie: Homegrown. Todd: join listen to Beers with Jesus if you haven't. Thank you for joining us on Yo, it's Carrie: Yeah. Check it out tomorrow. Todd: this show. Subscribe, tell your friends about it, and we'll be Yo, it's Carrie: Yes, please.
