• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Just because you're mad doesn't mean you're right. It's one
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: more thing. I can't remember where we heard that the
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: first time. It was years ago, but it's it's absolutely great,
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: you know, idea to have in your holster. Just because
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: somebody comes on strong and is yelling and indignant, indignant,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: that's no proof that they're right.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: People tend to back off and say, in fact, there
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: are some social circles that whoever yells the loudest wins
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: no matter what, because they got their righteous anger going.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Or gets the most upset. Just because you're offended doesn't
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: mean you're right either.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, well they're both right, Michael, And I'm
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: offended that you thought differently right, and I'm right and
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I'm but not because i'm mad, but I am mad.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: But that's no proof of anything. How dare you correct me?
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: You?
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Anyway? Where were we? Oh? Get into that in a minute, Katie,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: You need to analyze this dream as a woman, I
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: had a dream analysis Here we go, Yeah, and it
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: was it was so unintentionally funny. What was weird about
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: this stream is my wife and I we were bickering bitterly,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: which we really almost never do. We're best friends, and
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: we get along great. We're so lucky, but I mean
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: we argue sometimes with nothing. So in the stream we
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: get into this bitter argument in the car and I
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: opened the car door while it's moving. I say, stopped
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: the car. I'm getting out. I'm just getting out. And
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: I dropped an F bomb on her. WHOA wow, I said,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I said, I'm walking back to my car. It's across town.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: I don't care. I'm gone. I get out of the car,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: slam the door, start walking. She drives off again. This
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: is why would I have the stream? We get along great.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Then I'm walking all over town and you know how
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: dreams become surreal and weird in the set exchange and whatever,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: and it was kind of entertaining. But at one point
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: I realized during this dream that the shopping center where
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: I left my car, I can't remember any of the
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: stores that are there, and I really have to call
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: my wife to ask her where my car is.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Okay, there it is. You can't live without her? Uh
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: is that?
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: It?
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Just some weird My brain was trying to run
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: me through a scenario. I was so pissed off. I
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: didn't want to call her and give her the satisfaction.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: But I was going to walk around town until I
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: starved to death unless I said, hey, honey, you know
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: that shopping center we met at? What a stores are there?
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Because I was trying to program my Apple maps so
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I could walk there walk to my car because I
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: didn't remember where i'd left my car and I had
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: asked my wife.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you need her, You're doomed, don't have her. It's
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: always interesting in dreams where you you don't know the
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: lead up to whatever emotion you're in, like the fight
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: you're in, but you don't know what it was, right, yeah, right,
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: the the you know, the you know I'm being fired
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: or what, but it doesn't include what I did. You know?
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Just that's always interesting.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Did you did you wake up from that instantly knowing, okay,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: that was a dream, or did you have one of
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: those moments like wait a minute, to that actually happened?
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Hold on?
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: You know what?
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: And I know exactly what you're talking about, because sometimes
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: you wake up with the brain chemicals going from that
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: set of emotions. Yeah, and you got to remind yourself, oh,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: that's right, I'm not angry at my spouse. I am
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: not angry at my spouse. No, I didn't. In this case.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I woke up thinking, boy, that was weird.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: God.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: I remember having one here at work one time, and
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: I told her about it. I woke up, I had
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: a dream I was in love with somebody at work,
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: and like madly in love, you know, full on, full
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: bore in love. And I woke up and still had
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: all those feelings and it was just like, and I'd
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: never had any feelings for this person at all, zero
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: So I mean, but I was just fully in love
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: with this person. I told them later, I said, I
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: had a dream where I was madly in love with you,
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: and I'm trying to shake it still.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Absolutely thought you were coming on to her.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. But it was so weird
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: it stuck. It took days to get rid of. Really weird.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: But so this would be a decent screenplay, like a
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: light comedy. I see ice Cube in it. I've optioned
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: iced tea ice cube and Vanilla iceed to start anybody.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: So I'm wandering around town trying to figure out where
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: my car is, and I keep running into various people
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: of various walks of life and getting into weird conversations
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: and stuff. But I've got too much pride to call
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: my wife. So anyway, that is good, like light comedy.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: That is a pretty good idea. And I get into.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Various hygiens, you know whatever, I end up chained up
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: at a basement. I don't know. I'm sounds amusing.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Anyway, in one of those jarring transitions that have endeared
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: us to dozens. Uh, this is really really interesting, but
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: it's a little audio heavy for the radio show, and
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: we didn't didn't have time quite to get into it,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: which is unfortunately. But a couple of speeches Bill Clinton
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: has given lately about Hamas and Israel and that sort
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: of thing, some of which you've probably heard, one of
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: which I had never heard before, and this is re
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: He's done this fairly recently, certainly in the last the
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: one is older than the other, but it's it's in
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: the last ten years. Oh, I think the one is
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: pretty recent. The second one we're going to play. But
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter because it's absolutely material to a
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: lot of the screaming going on on college campuses right now,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: which is continued, for what it's worth, in the protests
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: and the taking over of lecture halls or whatever. The
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: blatant anti Semitism. It's ripped from today's culture. The whole
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Israel is settler colonialists, and the nice folks in Hamas
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: are innocent, lovely brown people who deserve all of our sympathy.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. We'll start Michael with twenty four.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: Depends on whether you care what happens to the Palestinians
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: as opposed to the Hamas government and the people with
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: guided missiles. Yes they were, Yes they were what it
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: Yes they were, And Hamas is really small. When they
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: decide to rock at Israel, they insinuate themselves in the hospitals,
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: in the schools, in the highly populous areas.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: And they are.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Smart, so they try so they wait, wait, wait, so
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: they try to put.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: The Israelis in a position of either not defending themselves
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: or killing innocence. They're good at it, They're smart. They've
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: been doing this a long time.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Now he gets into the realities of his effort to
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: broker a deal between Yasser Arafat and was it monocham
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Vegan and the Pointer.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: Or was it Before we move on from this, NPR
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: completely disagrees with what he just said.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: There's no disagreeing with it.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: It's not completely disagrees with that. That is not true.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: That is a that has been I heard them say
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: on that has been debunked. Okay, that's ridiculous.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Way ideology can blind people. But anyway, so Clinton famously
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: had the Camp Day. It accords, is that right that
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: brokeered a great deal between the Palestinians and the Israelis
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: back in the nineties. And that's what he's talking about here.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: And the only time the author Arafat didn't tell me
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: the truth was and he promised me he was going
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: to accept the peace deal that we had worked out,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: which would have given the Palestinians of state on ninety
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: six percent of the West Bank and four percent of Israel,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: and they got to choose where the four percent of
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Israel was, so they would have the effect of the
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: same land of all the West Bank. They would have
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: a capital in East Jerusalem, they would have the I
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: can hardly talk about this, and they would have equal
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: access all day, every day to the security towers that
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Israel maintained all through the West Bank for the Golden House.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: All this was offered, including i will say it again,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: the capital in East Jerusalem and two of the four
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: quadrants of the Old City of Jerusalem confirmed by the
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Israeli Prime Minister Hoodbarock and his cabinet, and they said no.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: And I think part of it is that Hamas did
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: not care about a homeland for the Palacinians. They wanted
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: to kill Israelis and make Israel uninhabitable. Well, I got
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: news form. They were there first, before there was their
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: faith existed. They were there in the time of King
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: David and the southernmost tribes Ajidi in Samaria.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: That also not agreed upon by NPR. Yeah, and other
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: people on the left.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've gotten to the point that trying to reason
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: with the nprs of the world is useless, whether they
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: are so ideological they can no longer reason, or if
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: they are being deliberately dishonest about a lot of this stuff.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Right could have had a Palestinian state, which Tom Friedman
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: still arguing about. But Yaserfat turned it down when it
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: was Clinton and Ahud Barack, and Yaser Erifat turned it
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: down when it was Bagan and Carter, and but nobody cares.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: At the very very very end of the whole negotiation,
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: when it was time to sign the accords, he said no,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I changed my mind, and they didn't say it out loud.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: But it's about killing Jews. It's about the humiliation of Islam.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: That is the Jews occupying that part of the world.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: They can't have they can't have non Muslims controlling that
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: part of the world. That's the story and will be
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: the story for a thousand thousand years.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: Well, we're gonna have a new president elected this week
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: at the taping of this podcast, and I'm not exactly
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: sure which either candidate is going to do in terms
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: of support for UH these ideas, but we will see. Well,
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: I guess that's it.
