I Thought Big Balls Would Be Our General Manager

The Super Bowl awesome thaking forward to it's gonna be a whale of a game. I hope some prediction, so I hope so ought to be. Yeah, we have had a lot of great Super Bowls over the last several decades. If you're old enough, you remember there was like a fifteen year period where they all sucked. Oh, it was amazing. Pretty single time it was fifty five to ten or forty two to three or whatever the hell, and there's

just no point in even watching. But then we've gotten a whole bunch of comes down to the last play games. It's fantastic. Yeah. Well, I've been fortunate that my favorite team, the forty nine Ers of San Francisco have been what's the term bad this year and we're not involved in the playoffs. I've been watching all the other teams and yeah, I'm telling you, if it's not a great super Bowl,

I will be shocked. It's because something crazy happened. It's hard to imagine a Patrick Mahomes team ever being like just out of it. It's hard to imagine that happening. So the only difference between this and previous contests, Jack, though the Philadelphiagles are incredibly good at chewing up clock time with the running attack. Oh boy, you've got to kid the ball out of a homes hands. It seems like a good podcast for you to do that that

topic as long as you want, so I don't. A boss told us years ago, and he is absolutely right, and we should always remember this boss told us the other day, not the other day years ago. When we started is you know what's the big story today? We get to decide what the big story is. And you know, if you listen to us to get up in the morning or whenever you flip out on or listen to the podcast, you know, we decide what the story is

and talk about it. And I mean in the same way that every other radio station, newspaper or television show is doing. And somebody didn't tell them what story they had to cover. So on, I couldn't hate the media heard more right. And then in the old days, there were only a couple of things you could look at to figure out what the big story of the day was. The newspaper that landed on your driveway and a couple of channels on TV. That was it. So I mean,

it wasn't wasn't a lot of choices. But now there are all kinds of different people that can decide what the big story of the day is. I don't actually know what the big story of the day is. You know, this is not the big story in my life, But looking up at the cable news channels and bounce around social media, it is the attempt by Elon Musk to reduce the size and scope of government. I mean, it's

just the story. The fact DOJ doje everywhere, DOJJJ everywhere, In the fact that I'm surprised our general manager isn't Big Balls today. I thought Big Balls would be our general manager. That's one of the guys that's working for Elon Musk goes by that charming and not in the least immature moniker. And is he the one that they found some old tweets or something in hand to resigned yesterday? Is he that gout or is he a different guy? I had not heard the two of those people merged

as one. As far as I know, that's two different people. The racist guy in the large balls fellow is somebody actually racist. I haven't heard what the bad tweets were. It's definitely the sort of thing you can't get away with these days. The guy has a huge amount of resentment toward Indian engineers, and it was too far. I

think calling it racist maybe too much. If you're in an industry that imports lots and lots of foreign workers because they'll work more cheaply than you, or allegedly harder than you or whatever, and you resent that and you use their ethnicity, I don't think that necessarily makes you a racist. So I didn't realize Elon had you know a handful of nineteen year olds on his staff that are really crunching the numbers and doing lots of work,

but are certainly those who are still emotionally nineteen. He has gotten, yeah, which the tech crowd tends to be pretty immature, doesn't it. Elon leading the pack with you know, making his rocket shaped like a penis just because or you know, setting his stock price at four twenty or whatever the hell. I mean, it's a very bro culture. Yeah, if you're in eighth grade. I mean, it's a lot of the jokes and humor pretty surprising to me. Well, I think that's what that means. That was what it

refers to. The still definitely little boys in men's bodies. Ah so picture brokeach always picture kind of like college aged dudes, but a lot of the humor seems to be more like fourteen year old having a fourteen year old at home. But anyway, Yeah, the whole Doge, Doge everywhere thing is really something, I mean, to shake up media and DC this way and get the most attention is something. Peggy Noonan's got a heck of a column about that today in the Wall Street Journal. Will have

to read from a little bit later. Yeah, I loved it, loved it. The thing that is really striking to me about a lot of the things that are going on both Doge and like the transgender sports announcement and the the immigration moves, the deportations and roundups and the rest of it. And there are a couple of other examples.

Is that the Democratic Party in the media elite are playing the same cards that they've always played of instant outrage and hastily assembled charges of racism and whatever else and there and those those ploys, those aspersions have been very successful for them in years past, and people have kind of coward and said, oh, I don't want to be called a racist or whatever, and they kind of

win the day. These days, there's been a huge cultural shift and you hear all that shouting, like some of the idiots bellowing into microphones who were playing yesterday in front of Capitol Hill. And and I'm getting a sense that America is reacting with a big yawn or a big now, we're not listening to you anymore. He lied way too much. Yeah, I'm really guessing on this one. Like on the should dudes play in girls' sports? I think we were all pretty solid that that's like a

ninety ten issue or something like that. But I don't know or this whole reducing, you know, fire and government employees getting rid of them than lands. I assume it's overwhelmingly popular. You can't wait to see some polling on that, or maybe we'll have to wait to another election. But like watching MSNBC as I do always to just gauge the temperature of that kind of politics. I was watching what's her name last night on her what's her called show late at night, and that's a good one. Everybody

loves it. And she she led with, I know a lot of you out there scared and worried, but here's some good news for you, and then got into the pushback legal pushback against like scared and worried. I mean, unless you're a government employee who's going to lose their job, and then, no matter what, I can understand why that would be worrisome because losing your job sucks, you know, or looking for new what I've done that and you

got to move and all kinds of things. It's but outside of that, why would you freaking care if the government shrinks? It seems like a great idea. And I'm not even sure how many people actually care about the government layoffs and are worried about it other than the people directly involved. The media would have you believe that most people think it's a terrible, terrible, tragic thing. But

the beautiful deal. The beautiful deal to me is that not unlike the delicious Recei's peanut butter cup with its peanut butter and chocolate, the laying off lots of federal employees is joined with the deliciousness of cutting ridiculous expenditures. And so every time we can come up with a list of trans musicals in Argentina or whatever. Now, whoever's doing the work of getting that stuff out into the media, nice job, because I hear about that from someone every

day or something list today it was fabulous cool. Yeah. So, but anyway, as long as those two things are joined together, even if somebody, for whatever misplaced reason, would be like, oh, I hate the idea people losing their jobs. I don't care who they are. I'm a soft head. I don't think these things through. I don't even know that my tax money is what the government spends. I mean, if those people might lean against cutting the government workforce, you

can get them with the other stuff. Yeah. So the numbers I heard Todace. If I didn't hear this, one of the headlines around this is they extended the deadline. So you know, Trump sent out that memo, perhaps illegally not to government employees that if they announced by midnight last night if they took the deal, they'd get paid through September and you can quit and go live your life.

Enjoy it, you know, thanks for your public service. You've always been saying you could make more in the private sector. Go do it, not yourself exactly. God. I was talking to a dude yesterday, very successful. Dude was so fired up about a couple of people he knows in public service that have multiple houses and so much money and just try to nuts dedicated their lives to public service. My ass. But anyway, I wish I could say his name, because they would, for at least for our local listeners,

they would be very very funny. What was my point, I had a point. Oh, so they extended the deadline past midnight last night because not enough people have bit I guess so they want to give more, give you more chance to think that over. But so far it's sixty thousand people have taken the deal, which is one percent, and they were shooting for more like three to five percent, hoping for ten of percent of people taking the deal. But whatever, not every good idea works the way you

think it's going to. That's fine. Well that was a good way to start it, to make it the least messy possible. You know, if I worked in a department where it's a little difficult to look around and figure out what we exactly accomplish, I might take that deal, because Doge might be coming for you unless you can justify your existence. Yeah, and again, this is a titanic effort.

If one little initial, you know, a strategy doesn't pay off quite the way you hoped it, and it's it's so completely overcovered because the media is so centered in Washington, d C. As if it's some sort of big setback like second play the Super Bowl, Pat Malmes was an incompletion, they start talking about Malmes really struggling out there. Jim, it's just ridiculous. Start to show. Officially, I'm Jack Armstrong,

He's Joe Getty on this. It is Friday, February seventh, the year twenty twenty five, were Armstrong and getting we approved this program. Let's begin then, officially, according to FCC rail rules and rights, here we go at mark.

moments cool. Here's that text line four one five two nine five KFTC. How had Googo Dolls? Today? I was listening to music on the way to work on Fridays instead of news. Today, I on Googoo Dolls. I was having kind of can's the name? It's gotten kind of a nineties vibe. I didn't realize I was reading about it. They were like a hardcore, punkish out there band. Then they had one kind of small sy song that caught on, and then they just became a full schmaltzan and became

very successful. I do appreciate this six eight time though, Michael Mark Bumper music in six eight times, thank you. We have a great freedom loving quote of the day coming up, mailbag is very strong. But first let's take a fond look back of the week. That was it's cow clip so the week, the prices, it's tires kings, that plane which was the weak Compsutani Phil saw his shadow. Then atosphere of river still pounding the West coast, a seismic shift in the NBA, the Dallas Mavericks treating Luka

Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. They made the decision. I don't know why. The best country album Cowboy Carter Beyonce, My god, he's nine in country big. This is about nanoparticles of decades old plastic now being found in the human body. When they see the birds actually going up in flame, they created a name for that. They call them screamers. In Pennsylvania, police say one hundred thousand eggs

were stolen. Two men are under arrest charge with brokering the sale of watches, jewelry, and handbags that prosecutors say were stolen by South American gangs. The most powerful military in the world will not be intimidated by anybody, let alone cartels. The war on women's sports is over, President Trump signing an executive order. Man, I just feel vindicated. Aerobust foreign policy is good for trade and national security. The tariffs on Mexico and Canada are just paused. It's

going to affect beer. It's going to affect your glock. Oh god. US AID run by radical lunatics. Fifty thousand dollars to do let's see a transgender opera in Colombia. Seventy thousand for a production of a Dei musical in Ireland. Twenty thousand dollars a pop to do drag shows in Ecuadors. I don't want my dollars going towards this crap. But we have actually just a bull of ones. When your government is doing you row, you fired all El Musk makes unsafe cars and now he wants to create an

unsafe world war. We have to fight this in the streets. How far are we from a kleptocracy? And I think we are there. The US will take over the Gaza strip and we will do a job with it to full own it. It's a remarkable idea. Look, the Gaza thing has not worked. President Trump is taking it to a much higher level. Whoa you fired all? Yeah? I feel like we're living in a TikTok world. It's pretty fast paced. Yeah, yeah, I mean that was just we're

using crazy disturbing stuff happens every thirty four seconds. Right, That isn't good? From from Nettan Yahoo, It's remarkable, which is a good thing to say. Uh, you know, because technically that word means that is something that should be remarked upon. Yes, And as it turns out, it has been. Here's your freedom moving quote of the day. I absolutely love this from the Great C. S. Lewis. It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird. It would be a jolly sight harder for it to

learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present, and you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad. Hm. Wow wow. That is a challenge set before us, isn't it? To become fully formed? Right? Exactly? To be who we're meant to be, or who we can be, God's eyes or whatever. Clive Staples Lewis for the win. Are we going to get the mail bag when we come back? I certainly hope. So, yeah, it's good.

It covers some really good ground, a bit of a note or two of dissent which we're happy to take on. Maybe my all time disgusting cynical shows you how dumb politics can get. From Hillary Clinton yesterday, Oh yes, honest, believable, among other things on the way, I hope you can stay here armstrong and getty. Hillary Clinton lowered the bar on what you can be cynical about with government, So stay tuned for that. It's just it's amazing these people, all of them. I mean, I just I have very

little respect for politicians in general. They're willing to say and do anything. So more on that coming up. But the whole US AID program that we've been hearing about since Trump took office and Elon taking a part and everything again, they have about eleven thousand employees. By the end of the day or end of Monday, they're going to be down to a couple hundred from eleven thousand to a couple hundred. They're going to be in charge

of cleaning the place out. That's quite the reduction. Yeah, i'd say Hillary to call Hillary Clinton shamelesses to like call Usain bolt Fast. I mean, it's just everybody knows that, but she continues to amaze. Anyway, Stay tuned a little mail bag for you. Hate to squeeze it out just because we got busy. Let's see. Brian from Kansas City says, guys, first, go chiefs. Secondly, I'm a current federal worker and the meltdown is real. I'm loving it, even if with my

job possibly at risk. You can't imagine the level of freak out from decades long employment that most of these people are experiencing for the first time. I've made my own cuts of waste in my short time here, but excited about someone making a much larger difference. That's one of the good guys right there. Good to hear from you, Brian, Yeah,

I was. I saw a clip floating around Haley Jackson on NBC interviewing some workers who are talking about how they're gonna have to move now, and the response of one of my favorite punnits was welcome to the real world where the rest of us have had to live our whole lives. Yes, yes, you'll learn it's okay, it's challenging, but it sucks. But that's the way it is for those of us who aren't working for the taxpayer right.

Pisces me off so much that you work in government and feel like you should never lose your job under any circumstances. It is a fantasy land. It is you vacation at Disney World Disneyland, and you think that's the real world because it has been your world. Brian from Kansas City, I would just suggest you and Jack and others like you find a non racist team to root for. Got to change the name of the Chiefs to the Guardians or I don't know the plainsmen. No, that would

be sexist, even though they're clearly all men. I don't know something. This is a lately innocuous and with no tradition. This is an incredibly minor point, but as a can and drives me nuts. Kansas City is in Missouri, the bulk of it, and the Chiefs and the Royals in the airport, and most of the stuff you know about Kensity is in Missouri, like Fox is broadcasting from some town in Kansas today. Okay, fine, but the chiefs are in Missouri, just saying, but the name is Kansas. Well,

I understand, I understand where that would be confusing. There actually is a Kansas City, Kansas, but it's not the Kansas city everybody talks about it. Correct. Yeah, yeah, Moving along Arizona, Matt Rights. Guys. Don't know if you've addressed this, but I don't quite get the Democrats strategy regarding cutting government waste unless they are the immoral party. He's talking about the people screeching into microphones. We're gonna fight this.

And as straight to Elon Musk is an unelected bureaucrat, how dare hey blah blah blah. Why aren't they targeting Republican areas to cut at least in addition to screaming about their own pet projects being hit. Wouldn't that give them a more some political currency? That's what I keep thinking. I do judo where you use you know, your opponent's momentum or whatever against them to bring them down. I don't know why you wouldn't say, yes, we need to cut, and here's what we need to cut. You go after

Republican stuff. Yeah, that would make sense, although this is the rhetorical question. That is not a rhetorical question. I believe it's because government unions, which are tied at the or joined at the hip with private sector unions of all sorts of organized labor. In short, is like one of the few remaining really dependable constituencies that the Democrats have. And I think they're in half a panic right now, and they seem like they've decided the one thing they

must do, and they're doing it frantically, hilariously, frantically. Is screeched that they're with the unions, the public employee unions. Where are your guardians? Well, to point out what a panic it is, Hillary Clinton yesterday said that the two plane crashes, we haven't had any plane crashes in decades, and now Donald Trump comes in and starts slashing the federal government and we have two plane crashes. That's not

a coincidence. She blamed the plane crashes on Trump cutting government. Right. That is unbelievable by Hillary Clinton's standards. It would be hilarious were it not so incredibly crass. All those poor people mourning their lost loved ones, what an amazing thing to say, I mean, their tears are still flowing, and she pulls that crap anyway, moving along. This is brilliant

from alnonymous guys. Now that the new trans movie has made it clear that being nominated or canceled with the Oscars is much more a function of the ideology of the film and the act and the actors, oscar parties need to change. Think about a bunch of middle aged women gathering for an OSCAR party. Used to be they'd watch every movie and make their own predictions. Now analyzing the politics of the film and the actors is the

better predictor of winning than the art itself. Quote unquote, You truly would make better predictions not watching the films but researching politics. That's funny. That is funny. I picture those women saying, yeah, I really like his strong support for abortion rights and the artful use of pronouns, but he's pretty soft on student loan forgiveness, so he might not be the best actor. Good times, well said Al, I don't know why you want to be anonymous. That's

clever as hell. And then an anonymous who says I'm not let me start by saying I'm not down with the whole trans craze. In fact, one of the most confounding things about it is how it's diametrically opposed to the very existence of gay people. Meaning, no, we don't accept that you're a femme gay boy. You should be a hetero girl. But then she says, having said that sex change operations are a thing, they've been a thing

for many, many years. And there is a difference between a confused an enormous difference between a confused adolescent girl, for instance, and an adult who's gotten multiple surgeries, changed their name, got a new idea, social Security number, birth certificate, and mended blah blah blah, blah blah, and you shouldn't conflate the two. Yeah, that's true in a way. And although the notion that someone can quote unquote change their

sex is scientifically clearly almost hilariously wrong. But if they want to present as a woman as an adult, and blah blah blah, I will I will be polite. Certainly, it's an interesting question and would take more time to tease out than we have here. And then finally, this oh Scott in Hillsburg, California, beautiful, beautiful place, guys reminder in twenty seventeen, the Tubs fire, starting in the middle of the night, burned over five thousand homes in Santa Rosa,

Sonoma County, California. City manager did not activate the emergency alert system. He was concerned about panicking people. This left thousands to find out there was a fire by waking up to their neighbor's house burning. Entire neighborhoods burned as the inhabitants made a run for it on foot with nothing but the clothes on their backs. The city took the time to create an emergency alert system, then didn't

have the balls to use it. Two years later, when the next fire hit Sonoma County, the authority sent out av evacuation alerts from the Napa County line to the Pacific Ocean, which, if you can't picture that is an enormous territory, putting one hundred thousand people on the road at one time. The EVA evacuation area was ridiculously big compared to the size of the fire. As you always say, the government does two things, well, nothing and overreacting. Kdotg

keep depending on the government. Scott yep Well said, I got plenty of stuff I want to talk about. That's got nothing to do without rage. I don't want to spend my Friday outraged about things. But here's what Hillary Clinton actually said. Then Mago, then I wish I could do a good Hillary Clinton vice. It's got to be like a grading. It a pitch that makes you angry before you even know the content of the Yes, yes, yes, some say that's misogyny. But then MAGA fired the faah,

and shit, it's accurate. Then MAGA fired the FAA chief, gotted the Aviation Security Advisory Committee, and threatened air traffic controllers with layoffs. Now there have been two fatal crashes. Hope you're unvetted. Twenty two year olds fixed things fast. That is an unconscionable thing to say two weeks into a new administration, having fired nobody from air traffic control, hundreds of people dead, and you're pretending that Trump, specifically

in the Mega movement, are to blame. So that just shows you pay nuns nothing, no attention to what these people say. Right, Oh, she's evil, unquestionably evil hashtag. So did you see the new Secretary of Transportation's response? No, I did not priceless and I will say I will go ahead and admit I have called for more gentlemanliness and decency from the MAGA movement. Sometimes it's rude for the sake of being rude, and it doesn't accomplish anything.

Owning the libs and drinking their delicious tears. While it can be fun, sometimes isn't the best strategy for getting the most done. Having said that, I love this. Secretary Transportation Sean Duffy responded to Hillary, I know you're lashing out because Doge is uncovering your family's obscene grifting via USAID. WHOA, I want to know more about that Clinton Foundation? Right? That was the bank for the Clinton Foundation, A giant

money laundering operation, a giant scam. Anyway, I know you're lashing out because Doge is uncovering your family's obscene grifting via USAID, But I won't let you lie in distort facts. The FAA administrator announced he resigned over a month before Trump took office, and the air traffic controllers were always

exempt from Trump's civil service buyouts. The previous administration shamelessly used US Department of Transportation as a slush fund for the Green New scam, throwing away money and resources on wasteful environmental and social justice projects rather than updating our nation's antiquated air control systems and other critical infrastructure. I'm returning this department to its mission of safety by using innovative technology and transportation and infrastructure. Your team had its

chance and failed. We're moving on without you because the American people want us to make America's transportation systems great again. And yes, we're bringing the twenty two year olds with us. What woo yah Sean Duffy folks, Sean Stuffy further in again. Before we take a break and get to Katie's headlines, I'm gonna throw this out as a question today and I want people to answer it. I was gonna tweet this out last night while I was doing it, but I was probably too angry to make my thumbs work.

Is there anything wow, thumb paralyzingly angry? That's another level, man. Is there anything more annoying than putting a fitted sheet on a mattress? Oh? God, I hate that. I hate doing that so much. I really should like treat myself and make that the one thing I somehow find a way to hire someone to do for the rest of my life and never again in my life. Put a fitted sheet on a mattress. Perhaps I can talk sleeve boy into doubling moonlighting aside. Hustle is sheet boy, sheet boy,

sheep boy, unfitted mattress sheet please? Yeah? Can I get it? Can I get a house cleaner?

bear mattress like he's a junkie. That's funny, you say that, Michael. If it had been my bed, i'd have said effort and slept on the bear mattress, which I've done many times. But it is my son's bed with the sensory problem, so it's not an option. God dang it. All right, here's here's what I do. I turn problems into solutions.

To me, it varies very much sheet by sheet. Some fitted sheets are much easier to put on class action lawsuit against ill fitting fitted sheet companies for the emotional anguish, yes exactly, and the occasional physical injury like when you're pulling on it and you lose your grip and you skin your knuckle on the bed frame. That sort of thing that's going in the suit too, and you're gonna pay right, We're not putting up with this anymore, big sheet.

We got Katie's headlines on the way. So that's the question of the day for me. What's more annoying than putting on a fitted sheet? Text line four one five to nine KFTC. It's a that's tough to be we did you get this text? I'll be your sheet boy, signed former government employee whole boy. I used to gloat. I used to craft trans musicals for the Irish, but I'm out of work now, so I guess I'll put sheets on your bed. Oh boy, Uh, what's that? Michael?

We've got a microphone problem with Katie? What is that? What is that all about? That's too bad? I was really looking forward to the lead story, who's reporting what, et cetera. So is that happening today or over a period of time, the whole us AID, which has eleven thousand employees, is going to go down to like two ninety, which is a very elon sort of thing to do.

That's what he did at Twitter, more or less, as he said when he took over Twitter, he walked the buildings and he thought, at least half these people don't need to be here. Yeah, and this this reminds me.

I mean, it's different in some obvious ways, but it has the same feel of a lot of the like woke insanity that you couldn't escape and you could not fight, particularly if you lived in a blue area of the country and you were dragged into humiliating meetings and told you were racist and people around you were like, like cult, it's robot drones agreeing with it all, and you just couldn't believe it. And then now that it's ended, it's like,

how did that ever happen? Well, this is similar to me in that we have somebody saying, all right, I tell you what, let's just cut it back to nothing then decide what we really want. Zero based budgeting. They call it an unnecessarily fancy term for Hey, this has been going on a long time. We don't have a handle on it at all. Let's let's let's figure out. You know, it's like cutting all your subscriptions that I decided, do I ever watch Hulu? You know, for all the

streaming stuff. I cut it all a month or so ago, and we've added a couple of back, but I haven't added them all back. But we all do that in real life. We're all perfectly comfortable with it. In real life. It's just a part of life. But then when it is extended to government, it's people treat that. People react as if that's somehow horrific. How dare you? What do you mean? How dare I? That's the way life is.

I don't know how we break out of this mindset of government employees being like something sent down by Moses to service all and they can't ever be dealt. We couldn't do without them. I don't know where that come. Can only grow. Yeah, yeah, and just the spending stuff too. But I think, how do we come out of this?

You're asking? I think we are, or at least we've made the first couple of steps toward coming out with or coming out of just habitual grow grow, grow, grow Grow in spending in taxation, keeping in mind that the true rate of taxation is the rate of spending. You're just deferring when those taxes are levied when when you engage in deficit spending. Well, you are a very odd person if you don't know that the super Bowl is so I've never really known people like that that wouldn't

be aware of that. I suppose our friend Tim Sander, for might not know that it's Super Bowl Sunday this Sunday, but he probably knows it, but he's annoyed by it. Most of you do know. I know, Katie, you came across a list of what would be the perfect stuff for a super Bowl party, So maybe we'll get to that a little bit later in the show. And also too oh yeah, well yeah, we're far too cool and

cynical to gush about super Bowl commercials. But there are some absolutely important trends in what's in and what's out in super Bowl advertising that, can you hear me, are all about the culture. Yeah, well, we only got a minute left, Katie. Is there any point in jumping into headlines with one minute thuff. I think we'll have to do it next hour, an hour or two. No, I'll be a special treat. Yeah, it will be a special treat.

You had your microphone fixed, you got your soldering iron out and soldered the wires back together, and yeah, don't, don't. It's a sore point, is the technical issues? Don't? Why just frustrated. Oh, she's got to learn to read a woman. Jack. I wasn't looking at her face. Now her up here? Yeah, right, okay. I can't read different emotions when i'm wow, wow, I'm going to hr K. Do you want to go together?

Then we can lunch. I do want to get to the Peggy Noonan column in the Wall Street Journal about elon fairly tempered view of where we are, not hysterical either direction. But maybe an hour or two. If you miss an hour, gets a podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand Armstrong and Getty
