of support, nutting and urdu Wan specifically saying you got to give the land back. That's that's something. Wow. We went through the list of the other day, the only six countries that voted U with Russia on whatever ridiculous security councils sort of measure in the UN they had the other day and it was Syria, North Korea, a ran, some country in Africa. I'd never heard of places like that. Those are his friends, you know, often useful in life to look around at the company you're keeping. Good way to good, way to measure stuff. And so as we talked about yesterday, Well, and another way to measure countries is how many people want to get in? How many people want to get out? Yeah, no kidding, Yeah, look at the United States, bad mouth of the United States. Look at it, got millions of people trying to sneak in all the time from all over the world. Um as listening to a great round table of smart people today on one of your cable news channels about so how's this end? I mean, if he goes then what you still have the largest nuclear arsenal in the hands of Oh yeah. I think what the world needs to seek is some sort of orderly succession scenario in the future, the nearer or long term future that we need that in a dictatorship when they have to kind of rebuild everything. Yeah, well, I mean, well that's what would serve the world. Sure, And you know, you can get hung up on where it is wrong. We've got to overthrow the dictator. But no, it's just no, no, no, sorry, the nukes change everything. So you know, new dictator, maybe we can work with him better and one of his buddies. I don't I don't know. See, that's the problem with dictatorships is dictators deliberately do not designate a successor, because a moment you do, the successor's coming for you and lining up people behind him and saying, yeah, I realize we were talking about twenty thirty, but you know things are going poorly now, why why don't we do the succession now? So there's always a vacuum. Man, my coffee tastes terrible. Stop drinking it, drinking old cream? What's it likely to do to me? Vomitous and rampant diarrhea? Yes, that doesn't sound that's not gonna help my day, nor mine. Yack. We should start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong, he's Joe Getty. On this Tuesday, September twenty seventh or twenty twenty two, we are Armstrong and getting we approved of this program. Oh my gosh, I just thought of something so funny to say, but it's over the line. All right, let's begin the show officially now according to f CEC rules and regulations, we are leaping into action at mark. See we're headed straight in. Oh my goodness. Yeah wow. We're waiting visual a confirmation that the actual impact with the asteroid and the sounds of the old arcade game Asteroid, which I can which I can play in my Tesla. It has Asteroid in it, which is very handy, the old Asteroid game with the sound effect. Um, so you watched it. What was it like to see? Could you see the Well, well, I remembered with about ten minutes to go that, oh that's right, that's coming up. I should have set myself on alarm, but I'm an idiot. Anyway, Yeah I did. It was amazing because the spacecraft that was sent to smash into the asteroid and nudget from its orbit was sending back images as it got closer and closer, and the thing went from just kind of a glowy blur next to a much bigger glowy blur because it was an asteroid. That orbit's a much bigger asteroid, but it came more and more into focus, to the point that in the final image it was like standing in my backyard looking down just before the impact. I mean, granted, the landscape itself, it's just a rocks. I mean, it was a lot of little rocks on a bigger rock, but the clarity of it at that mind boggling distance, and it was just seeing a glimpse of something that far away as if it's in front of your face. For some reason, I just found it on spy. Yeah, and so did we give that asteroid what for? Let him mose boss. That's right, that's the ahead of the mission right there. Um. I believe they need to do some measurements and calculations to figure out to what extent we did nudget into a different orbit? Gotcha all? All, As the lady made clear right after the clip ended, the first ever intergalactic mission to save planet Earth, a real one, not a movie. Yeah, Um, which I understand streams of Aerosmith don't want to miss a thing. We're very high yesterday because that was the hit song that came out of the Big Asteroid movie. So we'll have to get that on the air today. Michael. Um. I think it's another example of the ugly American in the way that we show up to European countries and baseball caps and fanny packs now going out into space and blasting into perfectly innocent asteroids mining their own business. You know, I gotta admit I had a flash of This does remind me a little bit of the early days of other sciences. Like you know, if you're an earth scientist, a zoologist or whatever, and you went looking for interesting species, if you encountered one, the first thing you do is kill it and bring it home, right right, And it did. It had just a touch of the feel of that. No, no, they're just a pile of rocks. On the other hand, there was a bit of a okay, we're dicking around, if you will, with to cite the technical term, with forces and things that we haven't before. So may end well may not. So was it headed towards Earth or did we just pick a random one? Picked a random one? But so now it might be headed toward Earth. It's headed for the heart of Tokyo. It's highly classified. But a source just told me that No, no, that just it was practicing. It was using the gear to see how well it worked. And in what way? Isn't that amazing that we have spent billions of dollars on a project to if we have to someday the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs, we would have seen it come and pushed it out of the way. That's amazing. Wow, let you get more attention. Yeah, I suppose we're giving it attention. Sure. Um, how does mail bag look

for? Move on? Oh, it's it's good. It's it's full of kind and gentle constructive criticism. I get a lot of that on the text line, too, kind and gentle constructive criticism coming from a place of love. Yes, yes, you'll you'll enjoy it, you said a second ago. You thought of something to say, but it was across the line. I had one of those experiences over the weekend where I made a joke that went too far hurt some feelings had to retract, and I had to had to explain to someone about the whole nature of being edgy and if you're gonna be edgy, if you're gonna walk on the edge, which is funny, exactly every once in a while you're gonna tip toe over on the other side of the edge. If it makes your grin, you leave it in right, it's Michael's standard. You know, you got edgy friends. Sometimes they're gonna say something too much for you. Oh yeah, absolutely, it happens. Yeah, no doubt about it. Um So a lot of good stuff on the way. Text line is four one five two nine five kftc Armstrong and Getty, The Armstrong and Getty Show. The CBO non Partisan came out yesterday and scored Biden's loan forgiveness Planet four hundred billion dollars. So there you go. Yeah, well the expense ain't half of it, if you ask me. It's morally, constitutionally ethically bankrupt. It's it's illegal, it's regressive, it's idiotic, it's pandering. Well, that the amount of money matters, and that it would easily be the most expensive stroke of a pen by a single human in American history, and that's not the way our government is supposed to work. And the only thing you hear about it, and we'll get into this a little bit more later in the hour, is there may be illegal challenges. Yeah, they're going to be legal challenges and they'll win. It's absurd, it's idiotic. Pressure. It was a gesture, which is what pretty much all the politics is now. Yeah, yeah, it's a publicity stunt. Indeed, here's your freedom loving quote of the day, going back to our series from William Arthur Ward, American journalist of the twentieth century, writer, Opportunities are like sunrises. If you wait too long, you miss them. Good one strike while the iron is hot, other words, hollow. There's another one. Now. You struck while the iron was cold, you idiot. It was hot earlier. Well, it was like sunrise. You're gonna miss it. Mailbag, Hey, oh, remind me I just saw something about this. Remind me to talk about Dahmer, the new Netflix series. I started that last night. Oh no, oh, remind me to talk about that Grim's fairy Tales not a comedy. Oh jeez oh boy. You can email us Mailbag and Armstrong youngei dot com. Perhaps you'd like to watch that find bit of entertainment with the kids. How you like? No, don't want you with a marine suitable for no audience? All right, moving along, hypocrites, is this note from Daniel. Surely not a new concept for you to biden hating snickering idiots, but surely some parts of your brains know the right. As long as Trump keeps his testicular stranglehol will never be good for

your and my country, snickering idiots. Thank you for the constructive criticism than this from Kevin, who is by far our most virulent and damn near only Russia supporting listener. WTF even is this show? Jack is? And I'm going to use a term I'm gonna read it that I never use ever, because you ought to hear what's in the email. Jack is an actual retard, a Bellakos fearmongering, ignorant retard. If anyone on the show there had done any research at all outside of parroting mainstream media, you would know that Shoigu has said multiple times NATO troops in Moscow would result in nuclear warfare. Seriously, Jack is a effing ape. Wow again, more nuanced constructive criticism. I remember my son once said, I'm being raised by apes. He's unhappy about some parenting thing. Oh boy, oh boy, one of America's finest young editorialists. Let's see bringing your whole self. My response would be, the guys, you're gonna let the Russian general dictate terms on what you can do and what you can do. They're gonna they're gonna decide where the line is not the rest of the free world. Well both get a vote. Yeah, exactly, Yeah, that's like that. My response would be, that's like your opinion. Man, you're a blank and ape, all right, Ricky the brick, He writes on bringing your whole self to work, which does the new hot trend in the c suites in the board of director. We need everybody to bring their whole self to work, your personality, your quirks, your fears, your passions, your love life, your sports. It's just everybody should know everybody completely at work. It's just horrifying. Ricky the Ricky Rights. I don't know about you, guys, but it seems to me this country was a hell of a lot better when you just brought your ass to work instead of your whole self working on my old man sayings, Yeah, come along well Ricky. Jeff from Missouri on the concept of the joke, thought about the discussion yesterday we're regarding the joke among politicians, and that is, how would you describe it, Jack? Briefly, they all think that democracy that the country and democracy in our system of government is something you can just you can just mess around with. That's the joke. Everything is a joke. You know. I say things I don't believe, and people even know I don't believe them, and I say other things off camera. I just I say all. I call people racists or say to try to fascists or whatever. I don't really mean it, I don't really think it. Just God will do say anything, do anything to raise money. None of it matters. So I've thought about your discussion regarding the joke amongst politicians. These people that lead our biggest institutions are not there because they were nice and compassionate people. They're not there because they wear integrity around the neck. The people willing to step on others heads to get that much power are all narcissists and even worse, sociopaths. They're essentially addicts, and their addiction is control and manipulation. So of course they get off on it

and have fun and laugh about manipulating people. It's like they're high on drugs when they're wielding their power. You know, I think that's a pretty good description of politicians until they prove otherwise. Them There are leaders you need hope they could lead us in a different direction, but it seems to be what the people want. We get the government we deserve. It seems to be what the people want. Over the top boy belligerence. People were sure fired up about the Stacey Abrams no such thing as a fetal heartbeat six weeks thing. We've got some notes on that I want to share. Yeah, we should revisit that topic. If you don't know that story, if you miss an now the show gets the podcast Armstrong and getting on demand see Armstrong and Getty. Show got one very coarse text about what happened to them when they ate old Yogurt said stay away from my expired cream. Okay. Also got this now that the aliens that are watching know that we can put a rocket right down their pie hole. We might get invaded any day, all right, will preemptive strike? I get it. Do you remember Rachel dolas All, the fake black person turned out to be race activist. She's got an only fan page, which apparently is getting a lot of attention today. She's turned to that among other things we can talk about. The Dow is now officially a bear market, down twenty percent from its high. The I might get these mixed up, but it doesn't really make any difference. The s said, PA is down twenty three percent for the year, the NASDAC thirty percent for the year. So that's where we are on that. Oh man, that's rich for a while. No, not again, don't look at your statements. I made that mistake on Friday by accident. My kids college funds, what I mean, Luckily I don't need him right now. But if you did, crap. Yeah, yeah, Well that's why a good investment management strategy is so important, Jack. You mitigate risk as you move closer and needing the money. Speaking of business, a great lesson in just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do something. Coming up in a few minutes. But boy, howdy. This rising star of the Democratic Party, Stacy Abrams, lost to Brian Kemp in the gubernatorial race a few years ago. It was running against him again, even as she claimed she would. The election was stolen, that's right, which she still hasn't backed off of. That gets not enough attention in the media that the one of the rock stars of the Democratic Party became a rock star by being an election denier, right right, indeed, and then she ran around registering people who vote, which is fabulous, it's great, But she also became an activist and in destroying any concept of ballot security. Just mail them out across the fruited plane. Anybody can connect them or collect them and bring them in. So she's on that side of things. But she's trying to win governor of Georgia again. And she was at a forum the other day and she said the following design just so you in case you didn't hear that clearly, she said, speaking of the fetal heartbeat and various fetal heartbeat laws, there's no such thing as a heartbeat at six weeks. It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that men have the right to take control of a woman's body. So that's what you're doing there when you get the various prenatal tests. Is everybody's there, including the mom and the perhaps tearful dad, cognizant now that there's a miracle growing inside his partner. That's not what it's about. It's in establishing the point that men have the right to take control of a woman's body. Man. Apparently the female doctors I had in both cases for both pregnancies for Samon Henry, and the ultrasound machine and the hospital and they're all in on it. The continuation of the men keeping women down with the whole fake heartbeat thing, right, and I'll bottom line she's talking about, you know, it's just a manufactured sound. It's an electrical impulse or a proto heartbeat. We got emails very helpful from a number of folks who are either tax or obg I N's doctors and that sort of thing, explaining the different sorts of machines that you use to look at the fetus and its development, that sort of thing, and how you know, conceivably in a layally way. Okay, it's not a true heartbeat, and that it's not circulating blood throughout the child's body, but it's a proto heartbeat that shows the fetus is alive and developing. That is an amazingly sick and twisted statement that she made. And I don't know if she's going to get away with that or not, but I don't know how many of even her constituents who really hated the Roe versus Wade being overturned are okay with this whole thing. So uh that that orifice it's going to turn into a nose isn't really a nose in the place where the eyes will go those aren't I mean, what, what what are you trying to claim here in those little fingers and toes? They're not fingers and toes? Yet, what is your what are you going with her? And then and she went on to think manufactured images designed to convince people that men have the right to take control of a woman's body. So she goes on to say that it's not a heartbeat. I think she said until ten weeks, which is weird in terms of the argument she's trying to make. So you are saying it's a heartbeat it ten weeks then, and all of this dust up is around twelve week cutoffs or fifteen week cut offs, So rum what's going on there? I think you just made our case for us. Thank you very much. But you know, I asked the question yesterday, does she have children? I don't answer not surprisingly was no. And what she doesn't realize in her quest to just make everything ugly and combative, is that, my dear, you just turned one of the most amazing and miraculous moments of every parent's life that you just forget right, that you never forget you just describe you just told every parent that wasn't incredible miraculous and earth moving. That was ugly and fake. Wow, nice political calculation, you morony, were duped, all

those emotions duped. You were duped. I can't believe that landed very well with anyone. Got a couple of emails, as you might guess, got quite a few, But I've chosen a couple of Christie right, So I don't usually get upset about news stories. Otherwise I'd be upset all the time. And who needs that? I hear amend of that. That's the way I am. But when Stacy Abrams had the gall to claim that the heartbeat at six weeks is essentially fake in the creation of the patriarchy, it flat out pisses me off. As an infertility patient of many years, including five rounds of in virtue in vitro fertilization, that six week heartbeat is everything. I'm blessed to have heard it twice after hard fought battles, and I know the pain all too well when you expect to hear it and you don't. That missing heartbeat was one of the hardest days of my life. In her ridiculous dismissal of that proves how disconnected she is for humanity. Thank you for the note, Christie. She says some very nice things about us, which is a nice balance to you know, the previous emails we read. And then Tom has some very helpful note on the uh that the technical realities of the thing were discussing. So and then he summarizes and he's I believe judging by all the letters after his name, he's definitely yeah in the medical field. Uh. And so now let's have Stacey tell all those first trimester moms who come to my er for bleeding over the years, who were so relieved to have a normal fetal heart rate or ultrasound, who are so or were so heartbroken when I had to tell them there was no fetal activity, tell them that it all meant nothing. Wow. Yeah, I haven't followed Stacey Abrams at all, but some of my favorite political pundits, uh say, how did she exactly become such a rock star? Was it just the election denying? Because she's not really very good at this whole being a politician thing. It's becoming clear. Yeah, because that was Man, that was some poor calculation right there. Yeah, what a what a brutal thing to say. Um, I mean, we have more people blasting away at it, but you got the idea, right. So I haven't checked the latest polling, but in terms of governor races that carry Lake in Arizona doing much more competitive then some people had been concerned about. She's practically trumpier than Trump and the TV anchor, and she's doing pretty well. She's completely phony, but she's really skilled. And you know, I just called a politician phony exactly, and watch the way you talk. She might be the next governor of Arizona. Huh, okay, be arrested, you crossed the border. Governor bashing is kind of my thing. What the hell is going on? That's right, you lunkhead, that's right. Radio host calls politician phone details to come. The kind and gentle part of me almost hates to beat on Gavin Newsom because he is so certain he could be president and he's so wrong. I mean, he is going to get a sniff of the oval office, and in the way only somebody runs for the office can understand. I've read descriptions

of it by eloquent folks. Otherwise I wouldn't know. But you get a need a fever in you that's somewhere between a coke addict and a horny teenager. Oh jeez, needing that office just desperately, and his hopes are going to be dashed badly and an embarrassing fashion. So we're all a human. We all fall short sometimes, is the thing. We're about to take a break. But I came across this earlier. This is from the Dispatch. You know that old Johnny Cash Larry got shot him, Man and Reno. Just watch him die well, Nassas scientist crashed to three hundred million dollars spacecraft into an astronaut just to seek the good into an asteroid. Yeah, it's really good just to watch it. Jiggle science. That's exactly right, Michael. Oh, I'm much more on the way the Protestion Iran continue to grow, and people who've been watching this sort of thing decade say, this one could be different for a lot of reasons. We can explain all kinds of different stuff on the way Armstrong and get the Armstrong and Getting show. This is a new pole found that in a potential twenty twenty four matchup, Biden and Trump are essentially tied. To keep in mind the clause a three point margin of error at a ten point margin of these guys are like eighty, let's not get ahead of our Yeah. How about that reaction by the audience to the setup, right, yeah, no excitement, stop threatening me? Yeah, oh speaking a threat. So I'm getting ready this morning, and I glanced over it at the counter where Judy often leaves stuff for me to see, um when she's not around, And there's a letter and it's from a certain rental car company of which I am a like your status member, gold Premium member, exactly extra special guy. And this there's no need to name this company. But uh, you know, if my sister Mavis was gonna start Mavis Car rental, I would go with her. So if I punch you in the arm, it doesn't hurts. No, you're her sister, Mavis. Yes, yes, So we rented a car a minivan at CTACH Airports Seattle to Combert Port for my daughter's wedding to shuttle people back and forth because Diamond Circle Premium member. Oh exactly. Yeah. They scattered rose petals gait in the garage for me to walk to the car. Um and then there's there's a champagne toast. As we opened the door, right rubbing my shoulder, somebody playing the cello for some reason. Oh, yes, it's wonderful, wonderful there at Mava's rent a car. And so like an hour and a half after we exit the airport, I think a warning light went on or something, and I realize the right rear tire is really low on air air pressure, and so I thought that's kind of odd. So I stopped at a gas Stasian. I squatted down, I pay a buck or whatever was I fill it back up again and start monitoring the air pressure. Well, by about two three hours later it became clear and now that tire is losing air. There you go, that's always funny. At this point, it's it's fairly late in the afternoon, and I know by the rate of air loss, I can get it to the airport the next morning to swap it out. So I go back the next morning. I say, hey, this van I picked up yesterday, it's losing air right rear tire. You need to check it out. They're like, oh, we're very sorry, sir. Let us. We have another man go to space J three if you'll give us a moment for the cellist to tune up. Exactly had to rescatter the rose pedals exactly. But they said, yeah, we've got another one for you right there, thank you very much, and so I jump in it. I say, wow, that's really good service. And so we go on and uh, so we got this letter thank you for renting your vehicle with us at Mavis Car Rental, etc. Et cetera. According to the terms of the rental agreement. Oh uh, this preliminary letter is to notify you we identified tire damage on the vehicle you checked in. Oh wow, somebody identified tire damage. Wow, it was me. According to the terms of the rental agreement, you were responsible for the cost of repair. In order to recover the costs associated with this damage, Javis Car Rental will charge the credit debit card you have on file for the vehicle repair cost is fifty six dollars and forty cents, and then they tack on a twenty nine dollars administrative costs fee thirty dollars for the paperwork. Right. Oh my god. Fu. So they're going to charge eighty five dollars and forty cents for having been given a car with a leaky tire. The amount will be charged approximately twenty days from the data this letter. The cost breakdown as follows. Blah blah blah blah blah. Mayvis Car Rental holds this relationship with our customers in the highest regard. If you have any questions, blah blah blah. And so I'm gonna write a back and I have a couple of different ideas. Number one idea is for various reasons, we have kids scattered around the country, Judy and I fly around a fair amount. We rent cars all the time, and we're going to rent a car for a couple of weeks. I'll never rent an car based on your story. You just told well, I'm gonna tell him. I'm gonna tell them I have a car rental coming up. You know, I could open the Umavius car rental app and tell you how much I'm paying for this car for a couple of weeks. But it's it's quite a bit. I mean it's hundreds of dollars. I'm gonna say. You know what I'm gonna do. I'm going to cancel my car rental for hundreds of dollars and I'm never gonna use you again. I'm just going to become a Diamond certified Cello Rose Pedal member at another company. Thanks goodbye, f you Right, our rental car company is really struggling to make profit because I used to back in the day, if I got a rental car, I never looked it over. It was never a thing. I just but I got ding what a year or two ago, or I didn't look it over and you point out some scratch somewhere and they claim that I did it. So now I walk around the car and write down all the crap and everything. So are they just like really working to try to make money. I wonder the fact that they will deduct that from my credit card or charge it to twenty days from the date of this letter

suggests to me it's like, you know, when they ask you if you want the undercoating at the car dealer and try to convince you it's a great idea. They're waiting to see who resists. They send out a thousand of these letters. Six hundred and fifty people say you mother blankers, I'll never use you again. They say, oh, no offense, attend to we value use a customer, don't worry about it. But the three hundred and fifty you don't they ding them. Maybe that's my guess now you know, if I like t bone to fire hydrant because I was drunk or something like that, I totally get that. But the idea that an innocent mishap, which I maintain probably happened before I picked up the car and was a pain in the ass to deal with. So you pick up a card all the time, so you got to bring it back and all that sort of stuff. Come on, you should you owe me money? I'm temp well, exactly, you read my mind. I'm tempted to ask if there are any attorneys out there who would just, for chuckle like, to write a letter for me countersuing Avis for the time trouble and emotional distress this caused me. On the weekend of my daughter's wedding, right my great hunt died in a car wreck because I'd had low air pressure. And that's all I can think about now. My elderly father had to be picked up at the airport my daughter's getting married. I was I was terrified. I was emotionally distressed. It caused me physical pain, loss of consortium. The it was no way I could get an erection with that going on. On the way to pick up AIDS medicine and the cancer cure. And well, no, there's no need to make stuff up. You don't know how lawyering works. You just take the mundane and make it sound horrified. A right, so yeah, you know, and make it sound horrifying. It was. The tire was low, and now when I think about it, I get hard palpeticians and can't do my job well. And I had to squat down. It was quite warm and I got sweaty uh and uh what was the other one? I had another good one? Um, you know, I'm not bragging, but I don't make fifteen dollars an hour. So if you make me waste an hour of my time, it's gonna cost you. There you go, so you piaches, oh me fifteen thousand dollars or we can just forget about this. What do you say? Right? Bastards? Have you not been to your own offices? There at the airport there are fifteen rental companies that are practically interchangeable. I'm a diamond in a circle, gold plated rose pedal cello. Member, what are you doing? What are you thinking? For eighty two dollars? Eighty five dollars? Yeah, dumb bastards. So we played that clip a joke from fallon which the point was there's a pull out where Biden and Trump are pretty close together if they were to run together, and again, Joe's under the belief that neither one of them all run again. But it reminded me that James carvill is quoted in a Politic Co piece saying you can't pivot away from the obvious, talking about Joe Biden trying to pivot to other things other than like the economy and gas prices. Maybe we'll touch on that, because that's a pretty good point. It's hard to pivot away from the obvious. And for the record, no way Biden runs. Sixty percent. Yes, Trump runs. That's that's my officials. Do you think more likely than not for Trump? Yeah, barely. If you missed an hour of this show, you can get it in podcast form.
