Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty.

Arm Strong and Jetty and He Armstrong and Eddy.

You saw the incredible response that Joe Biden President Biden received at the Democratic Convention on the first day, late into the night. You know, the excitement and the love that Democrats have for him. And he has tremendous relationships there, tremendous accomplishments and affection.

From the people.

So we expect to use him a lot of places as much as he's willing to do it.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

It's a Democratic senator saying they plan to use Joe Biden as much as he's willing to be used.

For that vatic he's the most consequential one term president of all time. He's the most consequential president of all of our lives.

Yet clearly the Harris campaign has no interest in being near him at all, and he's not mentally capable of being of any help anyway.

But thanks for that load of crap. What are you talking about.

He'll make the occasional team showing when he's having a good day, where well, he'll he'll babble for five minutes, then the Senator Josh Shapiro will take home.

Now he if he shows up anywhere, I'll be surprised. They don't want to be anywhere near him. Their whole their whole thing is we're the new thing. It's a break from the past. They don't want to be the incumbent. And it's working so far. I think, Yeah, they might trot.

Him out in like Delaware, Maryland, Simples, well, assuming that day he can walk out there, right, yeah, exactly, teeny tiny states that have hundreds of voters in them. Hey.

A quick, dumb controversy that is fairly big on the mainstream media and left right now, the fact that Donald Trump visited Arlington Cemetery on the three year anniversary of thirteen service members being killed in Afghanistan. On the right, it's being seen as him paying proper respect to a real serious tragedy in recent military history, while Kamala Harris just put out a statement. On the left, it's being portrayed as once again Donald Trump violating the law and norms, and how awful and opportunist it was to do anything like that. For instance, this being out in one of your major publications. Federal law prohibits political campaign or election related activities within Army national military cemeteries. Once again, Donald Trump is blah blah blah.

Charles, does that have to do with the controversy the alleged confrontation over some photographer something boy? Is that a tempest in a teapot?

I don't even know anything about that. But Charles C. W.

Cook retweeted that this is an entirely manufactured controversy. Joe Biden repeatedly used American military cemeteries and political ads, and no one has accused him of breaking federal law. This is ridiculous, but it's just an example of how you can play these stories one way or another. And Tom Cotton, Senator Tom Cotton is out today. And I didn't realize this, but he was actually part of the guard there in Arlington Cemetery between his tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. He was one of those guys that marches back and forth and wow in front of the two of the Unknown Soldier. And he wrote a book all about it, and he said it's perfectly not only okay, but the right thing to do for Donald Trump to be at that cemetery on the anniversary.

The families had asked him to be Yep, so it's that is It is so if some aid was taking a picture where he shouldn't and some guard at Arlington said you can't do that, and the guy got mouthy, and it was quote unquote an incident. I'm sorry to hear that. But that's got nothing to do with the feature of the United States. Nothing.

All right, It's silly, silly season, as Barack Obama once called it, and that these are the kind of stories you get.

Well, not only did the families ask him to be there, but there was an article out this morning saying that the Trump team got approval to have a photographer on site.

So that my understanding was it was just some violation of the rules and it doesn't matter. It's not an indication of any greater this, that or the other.

It's ridiculous moving along. I thought this was fairly clever.

Daniel Heninger in the Wall Street Journal, writing a column entitled the soap bubble of Kamala Harris's campaign, The bubble that might well pop tonight on CNN.

Probably not. I think, as I've.

Said earlier, I think it's going to fall somewhere between not bad and not great.

So the Sunbelt polls came out yesterday.

The blue Wall state poles are out to day. They're all tide, so we're to tide race. So her soap bubble has her tide. So if it would pop, I have to assume that would drop you down below tide.

Yeah, absolutely true. Who doesn't love soap bubbles, he writes, especially those a lot of soap righte, Who doesn't love soap bubbles, especially those giant ones that seem to get impossibly big, So impressive in Kamala Harris, the Democrats have created the biggest soap bubble American politics have ever seen.

The question is can they keep it from popping for two months? They might?

And then this is the part I found really interesting. We inhabit a world in which many people are willing to believe almost anything. This level of credulity probably hasn't existed since humans lived in forests and thought they cohabitated with ghosts and witches. I'm reminded of the video of who was one of your super geniuses who got the Internet going? Explaining that the Internet should eliminate any belief in things that are not true. Everyone will have access to information, and therefore everyone will become much more rational and knowledgeable.

It's like, oh, you poor, sad.

Yeah, anyway, I don't so much have in mind the popularity of political conspiracy theories such as QAnon or that Trump would be a dictator on day one, He says, modern incredulousness arrived with Facebook, Google in their offshoots. The success of the online platforms has less to do with their content than it's appearing on illuminated screens. Skipping ahead, the compulsion to check cell phone screens is reset the way people want to experience their daily lives. With each glance, they are looking for something new, not just something extraordinary or remarkable, just new.

You're right, which is sad even outside of this political discussion. But that is right, just anything new. How sad is that for our own brains?

It's sad, yes, And I'm trying to police myself posting and scrolling pedestrian photos on Instagram and constantly checking social media feeds. It proved that the bar for the quality of a new experience has become very low but irresistible. How else to explain the phenomenon of online influencers. It's become possible to sell anything for a while. This is incredibly insightful and troubling.

Yeah, I would agree. I mean it's only partly about politics. Yeah, I'm just thinking about my own brain and habits. And He's right.

The bar for this will get my attention is so much lower than I would like to admit. Yes, wow, that's embarrassing, easily amused, fascinated by shiny objects.

Then this is my favorite part because it turns it back to the politics. The Democrat's longest suite in the manipulation of narratives. Recognize the utility of this obsession with the new and created Kamala. This is the soap bubble. It did it with admirable speed. The new Kamala is a centrist. She's about joy freedom in the middle class. She will quote cut red tape. The convention, Democrats were wearing Hunt. Oh, then Democrats, we're wearing Hunter's camouflage, waving American flags and hilariously chanting USA.

California Governor Gavin.

Newsom, a consummate pro, called the new Harris directional whatever that means.

Yeah, it's like the sign in the yard across from my new cul de Sac that I live in. It's got a picture of Kamala and it's that Obama blue red montage color artsy thing. And then it just says forward. That's all it says. Picture com a forward. O'kay. Here's the slogan for you, boy. That is the Instagram picture. That's not terribly notable. But I looked at it because I haven't looked at it before.

It's just new. Ms Harrison.

Her acceptance speech described quote a precious, fleeting opportunity to move past the bitterness. She made it sound as if we were actually emerging from Donald Trump's presidency. Yep, not the fourth unpopular year of Joe Biden's.

Anyways.

Point being, this is an Instagram style. It's new, and so it's in true. But it's a soap bubble. It cannot last unless, is he posited in his first couple of sentences. Somehow the Democrats can keep that bubble from bursting for two more months, two more months, roughly two more months.

Yeah, it's sixty eight days to get there.

The Democrats will have the hard job of keeping the Harris bubble out of contact with hard surfaces, and he mentions Dana bash than the debate and that sort of thing.

Those are the two biggest points in the next two weeks anyway, interview on CNN Today and the debate on September tenth.

You know, and they're trying as hard as they can to birth prevent this. But among golfers, if you've got a guy who's like a mid handicap, he's just an okay golfer and he plays the first four or five holes, great, There's an old saying that.

The handicap will show up eventually just wait.

And it's true, discouraging but true. Likewise, Kamala, that soap bubble. It doesn't have to come in contact with hard service, maybe just a breeze or a gnat.

I've had that happen with myself, playing golf, shooting baskets, lots of different things where I like, I get a really hot start with people shooting pool with people who don't know me, and I in the back of my mind, I'm thinking I will return to the mean at some point.

That's another way to put it.

Yeah, well, and imagine if your mean was Kamala's.

Oh boy, and you think about the passage of time.

I gotta admit I got some pretty high anticipation for this CNN.

Interview.

But if it ends up being a package where it's like here they are riding the bus discussing favorite recipes and just a couple of questions, there'll have to be a couple of real questions. I mean CNN and Dana Bash know that.

But it doesn't have to be a lot.

You could probably package three questions spread out over an hour, with a bunch of fluff and behind the scenes and commercials.

Well, I'm going to have to stop.

Buy the Lows on the way home, not home depot, because they're in bed with the radical gender theory people.

As it turns out, more on that.

To come back, I will stop at the Lows to pick up a teeky torch. I think I have a pitch fork. I'll have to check the garage because I will be marching on CNN as if it were doctor Frankenstein's castle. If indeed it's mostly fluff and then a.

Few questions, I'll bet, I'll bet I'm not far off three hard questions.

No, you know you think it'll be more.

My money is on legit interview. As CNN desperately tries to regain some sort of legitimacy.

If you're running it as a business, if you're running CNN is a business, that'd be.

A great idea.

Yeah, you make news so much news on every channel.

As usual with my predictions, I must indicate my level of certainty sixty forty.

If Dana Bash saw what Lester Holt did with Biden, where Stephanopoulos did, and thought, you know, I want to be like that. I want to be a household name like that, then she might, you know, try to make her mark.

Hopefully she's a kid.

To be named Dana. Throw a second den in there. Yeah, your name is Dana.

Your name is Dana. We all know your name is Dana.

I can't go around pronouncing my name Joe a just because I think it sounds cool.

It's like throw an accent over the e or something and.

Then correct and then correct people in kind of an exasperated way.

Every time they call you Joe, right, angry Joe.

It's pronounced Joe A. Rubs it is Joe, isn't it? Yes, Joe A right? Everybody else in the world, who's Da Na?

Is Dana?

Well?

Not me?

Okay, Well, I guess sorry, that's right. She's Dana Bash from now. Stay with us.

We have breaking news, breaking news when news breaks.

The Donkey brays, I think this is an hour old, but I just saw it. ABC has rejected the Harris campaign's bid to change the debate rules.

We'll keep the muted mics.

There will be muted mics for the September tenth debate, saying, and I suppose this is correct. Well, the this was already worked out before their rules, and we're not changing them because this is what he agreed to. And you know, if we cave on one, then everything else is back open again.

We're not doing this again. So here's the way it's gonna work.

And Uh, I actually think that benefits Trump, which I'm assuming Kamala hars Uh thought that it benefited Trump to have the mics muted also, and that's why they didn't want the muted. She's not doing it because it would hurt her, and not for the reasons that some people think that he's he'll go crazy, he'll say all kinds of stuff. No, he'll interrupt her when she's about to go down a rabbit hole of word salad. I don't want him interrupt her. I want him to not be able to interrupt her, give her enough rope to hang herself. Yes, if many people have pointed out, Joe Biden would never have gotten to we beat Medicare. If Trump had an open mic, he would have interrupted it and bailed him out.

Yeah. Yeah, doesn't have the discipline to do that on his own.

So it's been imposed, ironically enough by the Democrats in interesting indeed, So just a quick note before we launch into this, gay people.

Male or female are not.

Lgbtqia plus to the power of three minus two, he is gay, folks. The whole alphabet soup thing is a creation radical queer theory, which is an offshoot of critical theory, which is neo Marxist to its core. There are books about it. The guys who started it tell you so. They're not hiding it. They're proud of it. Anyway, and Home Depot yes, zho and two Anyway. Home Depot partnered with an LGBTQ program that provided elementary students with information on pan sexual identities and being non binary. In twenty twenty two, Home Depot announced one of its diversity partnerships was the Human Rights Campaign's Welcoming Schools Program, which is a program to educate students on transgender and all sorts of alphabet soup terms. The Welcoming Schools program offers K through twelve lesson plans and other LGBTQIABBQ resources on this website. The Home Depot announced in June twenty two the company was expanding its partnership with the Human Rights Council, and according to Home Depot quote, the Human Rights Campaign HRC Foundation works to make transformational change in the everyday lives of.

LGBTQ plus people. Blah blah blah.

Can you We'll find anybody who can get me a couple of pieces of plywood?

Anyone? Is there anyone here? Who do you need?

Any here?

No? I don't need a transgender bathroom. I need a piece of plywood.

And are there any teachers like in the math department who just teach math? Well, we've incorporated the LGBTQ Affirmative Math Program into our programs. One lesson in the program had kindergarten to second grade students reading a book entitled Red a crayon story. After reading the books, a teacher facilitating decision using crayons where students explore their identity.

I've seen this worked into math and science and all kinds of different things with my own eyes.

It's important to teach young children that we cannot assume someone's gender based on their gender expression.

Is it important? Even if it were true, would it be important?

In school they taught the gender snow person, which is like the genderbread person.

Thanks Home, depot, great idea, well, that idea melts under something armstrong and getty.

Well.

The rise of insurance costs is due to a combination of inflationary pressures like an increase in the cost of a pair of vehicle, as well as an uptick and severe weather events and crashes here in the US. This is according to a study by Insurify, which provides information about the insurance market. The average cost of full covergs in the US rose by fifteen percent in the first half of this year, and that number is expected to hit twenty two percent by the end of the year. In three states, the increase is even more dramatic, with rates set to jump more than fifty percent this year in Missouri, Minnesota, in California.

Fifty percent increase in already very high car insurance.

I think it's interesting that the good folks that Insurifi didn't call out crime theft, which has risen dramatically in Kelly, Unicornia.

Did they fear political repercussions? Don't know.

The car industry's got to be worried about this, because I believe we're at the point that people are going to start choosing their cars based on the insurance cost, where it used to be mostly an afterthought for most people. You pick out a car and then you call your insurance saying just say, hey, I got a new car, and they put you on the policy. Now it's several dollars more if you had a newer, better car, but not like shocking. Now it's it's going to be a I'd like to get a new car, but the can't do the insurance on it, so I'll buy three year old car or this more modest car or whatever.

I think that's a going to be a reality for a lot of people.

Fifty percent increase and it already jumped like twenty percent in the three years of inflation.

Man, that's brutal.

I remember when I was a young man, I want to get a cool sports car. I thought, you know, I'm like twenty three years old. I was under twenty five, which is key to the whole thing. But because it goes down a lot when you're at least I remember being told it would go down a lot when I was twenty five, and it didn't. But I looked in to get like I was gonna get a Mustang with a cool engine, and I could afford the car. No way I could afford the insurance. Well that's got to be more true now than ever. Right, Yeah, I don't know what that's going to do to the car industry.

Likewise, housing as homeowners insurance skyrockets, it's it's crazy times, spicy times.

I also just because I've had a couple of wrecks. E wrecked my motorcycle. Going to cost nine grand to fix my motorcycle. My shoulder still isn't better. I wish I could pay nine grand to make my shoulder not hurt anymore. But and how did I get somebody hit me in my car? Oh yeah, But anyway, the cost for repairing your car, there is there an option where they're not so meticulous. Now, if you got a nice new car, maybe you want it to be exactly the way it was. But man, they just you know, we got to replace this with you know, we got to take off the weather stripping the entire side the car, and this emblem and all these different that's not even close to where the dent is. You have to repaint it, we have to replace it.

Do you have to do all that? Is that necessary to do all that?

Or is that just add to the cost and the insurance company's paying for it, so you're making the bill as high as possible.

I can't even remember how my f one fifty got messed up, what the heck happened to It might have been even vandalism. But I went to a place and they said, oh my gosh, yeah, because this and this, we got a blend repaint right, it'll be X dollars And I thought, good god, that's high. I brought it to another place that wasn't like corporate owned, and they said.

No, you don't have to do that. Or the bid was a quarter of what the first place was. That's what I look. Always get a couple of bids.

And there's a bunch of the dealerships especially, but there's a bunch of no no paint dent removal. If you have a dent and it doesn't require repainting or even if it's like, you know, a little dinged, but you got an older car and it's got dings lots of places. I'm not paying five thousand dollars to have that scratch remove. You know, they can get the dent out and it's a much, much, much cheaper. But that that is a bit of a thing. We're going to replace every bit of this entire quarter of the vehicle.

That's a scam at an incredibly high cost.

Yeah, I wasn't gonna use the word scam, but I'm perfectly comfortable that you did.

Scam scam, scam, scam, scam.

I thought maybe we ought to do this. Since Kamala Harris's only interviewed so far Harris tonight on CNN, and I don't know if these topics will come up or not, but this will give you an idea of where she's been on a number of topics when Dana Dana Beach presses her on these, hopefully. Here's a little from a report from Fox yesterday.

There's some daylight between this in twenty nineteen.

We're not going to treat people who are undocumented across the border as criminals.

And this today quote the Vice President's position is the same as the administration's unauthorized border crossings are illegal. It's also unclear if Harris would support more border wall funding. She keeps showing it in her ads, framing her is top on the border.

Fixing the border is tough, so is Kamala Harris.

A campaign source downplayed it, saying Democrats have always supported border barriers where it makes sense. But Harris wrote in twenty twenty, Trump's border wall is a complete waste of taxpayer money and won't make us any safer.

Yeah, as Jackie Henright pointed out there or.

Kind of pointed out there, Now she says this, and then it was a third person saying Kamala Harris now believes it wasn't her. Wasn't Kamala Harris saying that she now believes. So that's what Dana bash has got to get out of. Kamala Harris, where are you on the border wall? Have her say it in her own words, and one more on this, and then I got a comment.

There are more policy shifts when it comes to climate Harris campaign fact check email this week said quote Vice President Harris does not support an electric vehicle mandate, but in twenty nineteen, she co sponsored a bill banning the sale of new gas powered cars by twenty five forty. Her twenty twenty campaign website promised to ban all new internal combustion cars by twenty thirty five. Harris has said she would take extreme measures to enact her plans.

I am prepared to get rid of the filibuster to pass a green new deal.

She repeated that warning under Biden on a different.

Issue, I cannot wait to cast the deciding vote to break the filibuster on voting rights and reproductive riots.

So Jonah Goldberg of The Dispatch rote a piece a couple weeks ago. They got a lot of attention. Thought it was really interesting in support of flip flopping, in that you want people with positions you don't like to flip flop toward your side. Don't hold it against them. And sometimes they mean it because they've realized that politically their previous position was not going to keep them in office and they want to stay in office. Sometimes they don't mean it, but are just trying to get elected. Either way, it's good to have people out there touting your position, and there is I read another long piece about this the other day and how sometimes this occurs over time. They had a good example I can't think of or right now that worked against the Republicans, where the Republicans would mouth the words of a popular democratic position and did it for years and elections, didn't mean it, but said it, but eventually the country ended up where the Democrats wanted it because both sides were mouthing that position, And now a similar thing could be happening with the whole freedom patriotism. This is the greatest country on earth. Having the Democrats say that over and over and at the convention builds the story for the majority of America that that's our position.

That's, yes, we're going to build the wall.

No we're not going to ban internal combustion engines, because at.

Some point they have to live up to those.

Promises if they got elected to it.

So she got the side that actually believes it and the side that's just mouthing it. But that ends up being the position if if over time, which is an interesting philosophy.

You know, I got to admit at the beginning of your screed, I was somewhat skeptical, but it does feel a little uh chestnut checkersy, Yeah, exactly.

You know what I'm saying. There's nothing wrong.

I think it's phony, but there's nothing wrong with the Democrats talking about how America is the greatest country on earth and I'm a patriot and I'm blah blah blah blah blah. That's good, that's good. We want to everybody should be spouting that old time because it's true. And then that's where the country ends up.

And it absolutely could be said that.

Okay, so your opponent triangulates on you, they steal some of your talking points, they move much closer to your policies. If you can't still differentiate yourself and beat them at that game, you probably don't deserve to win.

I would. It's an interesting thought, though, I mean, so do you.

I still think you hammer her for being a flip flopper, because then you can easily portrayers of puppet.

Who has no beliefs and no principles, which is use.

Sure, sure, she's just another politician, She's not some new thing.

I think.

Yeah, you handle that by saying I'm glad to hear you're saying America is the greatest country on earth. I agree with you completely. This is the land of opportunity in the beacon of hope for mankind. But where were you two years ago? You just figured this out?

You're lying head that correct? Well, you you could go that far, you could leave that unspoken.

But Michelle Obama in her bare arms, got to talk about, you know, what a great country this is.

Hey, hey, hey, second Amendment? She has that right.

She got to talk about what a great country this is without anybody other than the people on Fox pointing out that she once said when her husband got elected that it was the first time she'd ever been proud of this country.

Yeah, it's a despicable thing to say. It really is, Yeah, it really is. Yeah.

So two things things happening with the interview. How wi Kamala Harris answer and what you have to answer? Will Dana Bush even pressure on this stuff? So we'll find out together.

I guess when's football season start? This week? Right?

It does so many weekends, So somebody verify that or is it next week?

Katie? I think wednesday? They have one week off from the preseason. I believe it's next week. Just next week. They just played the last preseason game yep. September third or September fifth.

Okay, all right, So what is that Thursday doesn't matter, Charlotte, Thursday Night boo all about the Wags, Jack the Wags. Now, Brits are more than familiar with that reference in reference to soccer, which they call football just because you use your feet constantly, as opposed to our football where you kick the ball a couple of times a game. Anyway, wives and girlfriends, Wags, wives and girlfriends.

It's a super hot thing in Britain.

All the tabloids, the magazines, the Internet is full of that sort of thing. And the NFL is steering directly into the wags thing, starting with perhaps the most famous Taylor Swift, Travis Kelcey Squeeze.

Of course, the Kansas City.

Chiefs, today's NFL Wags taking turn them into a business. Their status, the new paramours of star quarterbacks and linemen have leveraged their positions on the sidelines to create full fledged lifestyle brands. Then they go through a bunch of examples, including Kristin Huschek, who's married to one of my favorite football players, the forty nine ers, Kyle Uschek, who turns basic fan jerseys into trendy puffer jackets and sexy corsets, and who last season signed a licensing deal with the league itself.

Are you how do you? How do you feel about this?

I noticed this trend with I think it started with golfers, mostly in America, but I'm not I don't know what I feel about the athlete's hot girlfriends or wives thing.

I think it's stupid and gossipy. But it doesn't matter what I think because the NFL thinks differently, which is my point that I'm leading up to. The NFL is completely down with this. They signed that deal with Christian Yushek. Many have careers that eclipse those of the partners. For instance, Simone Biles is married to Chicago Bear's safety Jonathan Owens. There's some various TikTok influencers I've never heard of in neither of You, and most famously, global superstar tailor Swift is with Travis Kelcey. The NFL was tweeting song lyrics and photos of Swift from their main account, which is pretty much unheard of. Wow, said Madeline Hill, writer of the sports gossip newsletter Impersonal Foul. She talks a little bit about how JIV efforts to like get women to pay attention to the NFL used to be, but now it's just full on. The NFL's favorability ratings among Gen Z and millennial women have been rising steadily since twenty seventeen, but jumped eleven percent between July and December of last year.

I think I know as many passionate female football fans as I do man men, damn air.

Yeah, but so the favorability rating among younger women is sixty four percent, according to Morning Consult. The big pulling organization then came Super Bowl LVIII. Ninety eight million women to ninety eight million women tuned in to watch the Chiefs play the forty nine Ers. This February highest figure ever recorded. And part of it's the Swift effect. But it was going in that direction before the Taylor Swift thing happened. Yes you yeah, yeah, And as Simone Biles put it on Instagram, lately, these days football is for the girls.

Yeah.

Simone's Dayton, one of the players, and she wears really weird clothes. She's married, married to the guy. As I said, yeah, but we word clothes. Have you seen her clothes?

Uh?

Not that I recall very weird outfits. I don't know what that's all about.

I kind of expect hip young women to wear weird ass now beyond weird, like these spacesuits are like.

Fish costumes, like Kanye West weird. It's like, oh, what is that really? How odd?

Tim Elis, chief NFL marketing officer, says quoe, We've been steadily and consistently growing our female fan base for many years.

So anyway, if you have thought of football as well, that's for dudes.

You are so wildly out of date, right, for better or worse. Yeah, I think it'll probably just add to the silly and dopey on football broadcasts, but it doesn't matter anyway.

It's just entertainment.

Yeah, it makes it easier to watch games if you're a dude, if your girlfriend or wife is into it, and your friend's girlfriends and wives are into it too.

You know what's been interesting, and I'm sure this is reflected by or I'm sorry it's it's pushed mostly by the approval of the consumer, is that NFL broadcasting teams and analysis teams have gone from all male to you've got to have a hot chick to now it's got to be anchored by a hot chick.

The hot chick is in charge yeah, exactly, and.

There's probably another hot chick and then a couple of guys to comment who used to play. But again I find that odd and insulting. On the other hand, if the analysis is good, I don't care. But where'd that come from?

Who said to you this? As a single guy.

I got to figure out maybe I need to start watching sports again, because I've had a couple of situations where like, I mean, the in the around women talking and they how about that game the other day?

Yeah, I didn't see it. I don't.

I don't watch sports because I don't really anymore. I watched the Super Bowl.

And then they say, you know, as interested, but it turns out he's gay. I'm gonna right, that's a Joe. It's a joke. There are plenty of gay guys are a big sports fan. I want to find a guy, if you know what I mean, like a guy guy, so kind of a.

Guy guy and more in the market for a more traditional guy. But he knows all the lyrics to Taylor Swift songs, so I'm thinking maybe we'll be friends.

I used to watch sports like crazy, but then my kids came along.

Jack and Joe just had a very robust and productive conversation this morning, working together to discuss very important issues together in this moment in time and now, together in this moment, they will have final thoughts with Armstrong and Getty. This is the most final thoughts of our lifetime, and it is time to share the final thoughts.

They have been thinking.

And that time is every day.

I'd be lying if I wasn't hoping for one of those tonight on CNN. Here's your host for final thoughts and Joe Getty Jack.

We're all hoping for one of those.

Hey, let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew to wrap things up for the day. There is Michael Angelo in the control room. Michael final thought.

CNN's going to combine easy questions with tough questions. It'll be something like this, if you could live Kamala as a as a shoe, what would it be a sneaker or a sandal? And do you support defunding the police?

Right? Well, wow, Katie Green are esteemed to Newswoman as a final thought.

Katie, So yesterday Jack drank out of the straw hole. Then we heard your story with the entire three Stooges thing, and I just spilled coffee on myself.

So Michael, watch out because this is contagious and go ahead. I was just gonna ask you for your final thought. Whatever.

Coffee is hard to get out, and it's a stain that will ruin your jeans if you don't deal with it right away. Your jeans, light color jeans are ruined. Your shirt ruined. That's the problem.

Yeah, that's why I always wear dark colors.

I never, literally never wear a white shirt to eat.

I can't be trusted.

My son's like that. I got one son's like that. In one it's not like I never spill on myself early. But my other son's like, I gotta change clothes. We're gonna go eat because he doesn't want to ruin his good shirts.

I know my limitation. Yeah, I mean, I can be as careful as I want. But you know you're carefully eating a little pasta and that one noodle swings loose and slop sauce on your shirt.

Pasta sauce is a top one two coffee pasta sauce. Blood, Those things are very why having blood on your shirt?

Jack?
