which is ongoing, by the way. And it's important you know about it, the press. is really so i'm fascinated by this i have I almost sent this out to you guys in the newsletter, but then I'm like, okay, this is too much.
So I was looking at the way that the press was writing about. All of you know with the President's the the response in Iran and The thing that stuck out to me. Was now they're starting to kind of pick up. On The How do I put it? I guess the.
chasm between The people who are cosplaying as members of the right, is the woke right, and then actual people on the right. And they're really starting because it's mostly been entirely online. And I think, who was this? We were talking about this with Bridget Fettesy this week, and that came up. Like, is it entirely online?
I think she was the one, yeah, I think she was the one who was saying that.
Well really? this stuff that you see starts that's online, hyper online, starts filtering over To meet space, to real time, a real existence outside of the internet. It starts immediately migrating over. And you know, take a little bit, but it'll start migrating. And then all of a sudden, immediately you'll recognize it.
You'll start seeing it in various. Places like I'm starting to see it in some news articles. There were a couple, I had one for you. Yesterday, and that was the one that was over at the, I think it was The Economist, that was the one that was over at The Economist, and they were talking about, oh my gosh, is Trump gonna, and you're starting to see all of these 2028 headlines. And That's for reason.
That's that's on purpose because they're seeing this this space this discrepancy in in between these factions and As a result, they are They they want to exploit it. They want to exploit this. And the people who are doing it, I mean, it's like they just they. I think they recognize what the media is doing, but At the same time, They're feeding into it. And so I'm just watching all of these, you know, I'm seeing all of these stories that are coming up that are, I mean, if I wanted to look over, do I want to look over at memorandum?
I don't think I do. Uh I hate looking over here. There's some websites I just hate going to. Yeah, okay, so Trump is getting drilled. Donnie's really stepped in at this time.
Here's how Iran could become a forever war.
Now that's what they're starting to say. They're starting. I saw you roll your eyes, Kane, from all the way over here. All the way, he's in the dark too, so that means they had to open him up real big to roll him. For a forever war to be a thing, the other side would have to be able to keep up a forever war.
Yeah. And unfortunately for Iran, they can't. No, that's yeah, it's just doesn't. Just not going to work for them that way. Not going to happen for them.
They were talking about oil rising.
So they're getting in. Oh, he's stretching America first with Iran. Et cetera. This was actually, let me pull this one up. This is the one that I thought actually was a little bit most honest because it says what the media wants to happen and then it tells you what's actually happening.
So it says, the headline is: Trump stretches America first on Iran. His voters are going along with it. Yeah. Okay, well, they support him, and the whole point of your article was to. argue that they don't.
So what gives? But they're really trying to set this up. They want you to think that You supporting it is isolating to you. They want you to feel isolated, and they really are trying to influence Trump with this because they know finally they figured out Trump's currency. Trump's currency is He wants And some people are that just he wants his ego fed.
That's it's just there's nothing it's honest. Who doesn't? Half of all of Podcastistan is the same way.
So, what are you talking about? Like here's this one, a new republic, Trump war takes dark turn. Uh let's see. Uh oh yeah, I mean all oh and then they're mad over the 200 billion in funding requests for Iran. Which we are going to have a discussion about.
Now, here's the thing to note: Media Matters has been the singular, because I've been watching these stories. Media Matters, as you know, which is the George.
Soros funded. Entity. It was created by an old angry conservative that was mad that nobody liked his book. God, why did it in heaven? Why did people not like his book so that he maybe would not have been tempted to go to the left?
David Brock. He looks like a Marvel character, a bad guy. But I've noticed that the Media Matters, which is an activist website, has been very eagerly. Trying to drive a lot of this, a lot of this. Uh How do I say, like, I don't want to say, but these narratives that they're doing purposefully to try to inflame tensions on the right.
So you have this, oh, the Iran funding, oh, Trump turned, Trump war takes a dark turn, all of these, they're really driving it. And a lot of the other citations in article and publications like CNN, even The Guardian. Let me look here in my notes.
So, CNN, BBC, The Guardian, even Associated Press had even, without credit, had even cited something that they did. And AP usually typically doesn't do that, nor does Reuters, because they have journalists in the field. But every now and then, if it's a bunk survey, if it's a push-pull, they'll include it in there. They'll cite it.
So, my point is that all of these other publications that are involved in the facilitation of mainstreaming these narratives. And sort of tempering them so they sound less kooky, they're taking all of their marching orders from like Media Matters. And then you have these little subsidiary, you know, look at it like wheels or spokes on the wheel. They have all of these other little ones that are that are helping to amplify it. But they're really driving a lot of this narrative.
And I'm seeing it pop up. In a lot of the woke Reich stuff. I saw several woke Reichers literally cite Media Matters this morning, and I'm. I can't even anyone who's the moment you cite Media Matters. Because there isn't, there is legitimately, as someone who's been familiar with them for almost 20 years, there is legitimately not a single piece of honest reporting that they've ever published.
And they're not reporters. They don't sell ads. They don't even follow AP Stylebook. They don't do any of that stuff. They don't have any kind of expectations for their staff in terms of reporting integrity.
It is all activism. And so they report this, then they funnel it, they mainstream it, they launder it through the CNNs and the MSNBCs to make it a little bit more. Palatable, and then from there it continues to go on. It's like you know, pebble with water constantly running over it. You know, here's another wave, and here's more water, and that's it, smooths it down to make it acceptable.
So, That's my point, because this is really they're really pushing this divide. Right, really pushing this divide.
So, this has been like Republicans are balking at going alone on Iran funding.
So, here's another thing.
So there is, it is starting to somewhat be reflected. I think, in what some members of Congress are doing. And I think some members of Congress are trying to chase clout. I think they're trying to clout chase. And they don't know, they think that the online audience is real.
But when you look at the surveys of where voters are on this stuff, voters are resolutely behind the administration. And I think that people like CNN and MSNBC are only talking to these angry ones because. They're morons. They're morons. I'm sorry.
You're an absolute moron. I also voted for Trump three times, and I am completely not at all surprised about the Iran move. The move that I was the angriest about, which shows you the difference here, is the Trump accounts because that's straight up socialism. And the fact that these people want to act like they're constitutional bouncers, that they're not mad over that, but they're mad over following the War Powers Act. They're mad over responding to what was what I mean.
I think it constitutes an immediate threat. If you're creating enough ballistic missiles that you can rain down hell on anyone and you're developing and have developed, as you've shown by attacking Cyprus and these other places in and around the Middle East, that you have the capability to get. From A to B, the way that they do, that's, yeah, I would say that sure as hell constitutes an immediate threat. And when they are making enough missiles that you won't even be able to get near them if they fully complete the remaining 30% enrichment process, then yeah, that's a major problem.
So that's what they were talking about. The consequence of inaction greater than the consequence of action because you have a window here, you don't have one there. People, I guess, are wanting to wait till it gets really bad. I'm wondering. They wanted to wait until it got really bad, until we really had to spend a lot of time in treasure because we were uh uh we have to respond to a provocation and and and an even greater threat.
That's kind of the question. But my going back to this, though, Republicans now are fighting over this funding. There were $200 billion requests. Cain, that's one early layering center. It is.
That's a drop in the bucket of what Planned Parenthood gets. And I will tell you this. When you commit. Our armed forces to an objective. By God, you better fund them.
I don't want them sharing weaponry. I don't want them running out of ammo. You ought to read some of these stories about the perilous predicaments that some of our men and women found themselves in because of simple stuff like that. When they are committed, You support them. Two hundred billion dollars.
Take it back from the Somali diaspora up in Minnesota. Or, better yet, maybe maybe cut some of this egregious stupid spending. But to deny to make our soldiers do that? to make them have to budget. That's literally the nation's only job.
Finish the damn job. This is how mission creep starts to get involved. This is how you prolong stuff.
Well, I don't know if we should fund we're going to send them, but I don't, we're going to have them do these things. And by. We have our Navy over there. We don't have boots on the ground per se, but we have our Navy over there. To not fund what you've already committed to.
is egregiously heinous. Yeah. Especially right now, when we are so close, you're going to preen and pretend these people who didn't say anything about all the millions and billions that went to Ukraine. including Republicans. These Republicans that had no problem spending $200 million on a dumbass ad campaign that was just about Christy Noam.
Are you ser you kidding me? You kidding me because that's how much money was spent on a DHS campaign. But you're going to balk at funding the troops. Y'all deserve to have every one of your asses kicked, every single damn one of you. And I'm going to tell you, I have been.
lighting up personally.
Some members of Congress that would dare leave our men and women out there hanging like that. All right, kids, if you have ever fought with a garden hose, and you know exactly what I'm talking about, like the kinks and the tangles, and sometimes it looks bad after a year, and the whole thing turns into a rubber knot the second that you need it. A lot of people replace their hoses like every couple of years. It's like it's a springtime tradition for some folks. But now there is the world's number one expanding garden hose.
It's called the pocket hose, and it really is that small. And they have their new pocket hose ballistic. This thing is tough. It's reinforced. I don't know what this is.
Liquid crystal polymer. It's like the same thing that they use in bulletproof vest, which means. It can handle your household, can probably even handle terrorists. This thing actually stretches out so ungodly long. This thing goes out to 25 feet.
And then you turn on the water, it expands to the full-size hose. But look, look how little it is, and it's very lightweight. You know, you turn the water off, it shrinks right back down. To twee size, pocket size, so you're not rustling this giant hose back into the garage. I know there's a million jokes to be made here, but the point is, is that their new ballistic version is even better because it has five times stronger than steel fiber, and it has this like little Pocket pivot.
That's what this thing is. It's like 360 degrees pocket pivot.
So there's no kinking, no tangled mess. And now it's also upgraded with a UV coating.
So it doesn't look like absolute hot garbage after summer. And it has even thicker washers to help resist leaks.
So for a limited time, you can get the pocket hose ballistic. Ballistic. With a free 360-degree pocket pivot. That's what this thing is. It's the pocket pivot.
And you also get a thumb drive nozzle. All you have to do is text Dana to 643000. 64000.
So that's text Dana to 64000 and get not one. But two free gifts, your ballistic pocket hose. Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Smart Talks with IBM. I recently sat down with IBM's chairman and CEO, Arvind Krishna. And I asked him, how can companies use AI to its fullest potential to create smarter business?
My one advice to them. Pick areas you can scale. Don't pick the shiny little toys on the side. For example, If anybody has more than 10% of what they had for customer service Ten years ago? They're already five years behind.
If anybody is not using AI to make their developers who write software 30% more productive today. with the goal of being 70% more productive. Yeah. So we are not asking our clients to be the first experiment on it. We say, you can leverage what we did.
We're happy to bring out all our learnings, including what needs to change. in the process, because the biggest change is not technology. is getting people to accept. that there's a different way to do things. To listen to the full conversation, visit ibm.com/slash smart talks.

So this is apparently the number. Of times you should brush your teeth per day to ward off dementia. You have to go through like four paragraphs of stupidity because they don't know how to write an article over at the Telegraph because they're a bunch of dumb people. And they said three times a day. I'm going to the dentist regularly.
I do brush my teeth a lot, sometimes four times a day. I am obsessed with cleanliness. I can't stand being icky. Huh? No, I'm so not gonna get dementia.
Oh my gosh, especially if that's the way to avoid it. A man tried to rob six New York City banks in five days. He made off with a whopping $605. That's it. Why would I mean in fight grand total.
Gustavo Torres. He began his disappointing crime spree last week. He walked into a chase branch, handed a teller note. Tried it again. But he never suggested that he was armed, and he was going, he went into a couple of different chase branches.
And then he left with 320 from one bank and then 265 from another. That's just the dumbest bank robber ever. A woman faces federal drug charges after troopers found 480 pounds of meth. Oh, gosh. 40 pounds of heroin.

I recently spoke with IBM's new Director of Research, Jake M. Bata. We discussed his vision for the future of quantum computing. At IBM Research, what we always do is answer: what is the future of computing? Whether it's coming up with new algorithms, coming up with better AI, coming up with quantum, or coming up with just how do different accelerators go together.
It's our DNA to answer the question of what is the future. Isn't it a perfect problem for IBM because you kind of need to have a legacy of building stuff? Yes. Building actual Physical machines. Yeah, it's why I came to IBM.
I wanted the experience The culture of building hard things. that others have not done before. Where do you imagine we are in the timeline of this technology? There will come a point. When it will mature, right?
My cell phone is a mature technology at this point. How far are we from that point with content? By 2029, we'll build the first fault-tolerant quantum computer. That is one that can run a very, very large, large problem. To learn how IBM is building the future of computing, Visit ibm.com slash quantum.

Some of you are like, don't say that. Dana Lash with you. What is the temperature?
So almost eighty degrees? Almost eighty it's gonna be ninety something here in Texas. Uh Like tomorrow in the 95 on Sunday, and then it's like in the 80s.
So spring is here. We don't get a spring. Was that Hedger? That wood that ground rat, what was it? What's it?
Punxitani Phil. Punky Phil? No. Punky. Phil.
Punksatani. I know his name. Oh my gosh. I'm going to get a hate mail from that area. The wood rat, he said we were still supposed to be in winter, or the ground rat, whatever the hell it is.
Uh Punksatoni Phil, the feller with the Top Hat Friends. He said that we were supposed to have. Like I thought more winter. You know, that is if you are. If you get your meteorology from a ground mammal.
a c a woodland critter, as it were. Which actually makes sense in the podcast-stan world. I completely believe that they do that.
So, welcome, welcome back to the program. We've later on in the program. An old friend's gonna be joining me. He's to come on the show. all the time.
And he is an interesting bird, right? But He's always been kind to me and I've always reciprocated. And we've gotten along for a li I actually met him through Andrew Breitbart. and it was in Quincy, Illinois, was when I first met him. Uh one of my dear friends, Chip Gurdis, and then Mike Flynn, who was the not the general, but who was the editor of Big Government at the time.
We were all editors, the original ones, under Andrew Breitbart, before way years before Bannon. And that's how we met Roger. Roger came into the picture, and I've never seen anyone speak. In 93-degree heat with like 80% humidity, in a full three-piece suit, perfectly tailored to their person, an actual tortoise. Rimmed eyeglasses.
Not like tortoise-looking, but pretty sure it's like literal a dead turtle was. salvaged and fabricated for that purpose.
So, very interesting guy, Roger Stone, who's going to be joining us later on in the program. It's always nice sometimes when you. You know that you know how when you meet someone and you find out or you know that you guys dislike the same people? It's a nice feeling, isn't it? It's a nice feeling.
Anyway, so he's going to be coming on later on in the program.
Now, yeah, we had Chuck Norris. He's passed away. And now here, everybody's already asking me who's the rule of three. We're going to mull that over. I haven't even had a second to think about it, but we're going to mull it over.
In the meantime, we're looking at the fighting over the funding. With the continued operations in Iran. I don't like to say Iran war, and I'm very picky about language, and I'm not doing it to be a brat. I'm picky about language because you have to remember, I've been doing this since I was in my 20s, and I have seen when we lose. ground on the language.
And then you end up Losing part of an argument because you have forfeited your ability to properly define it in the correct terms when you give up, when you seed language, never give up any ground. And so I'm very particular and it is not a war.
Now, if people disagree with the reasons for being over there, as long as it's done on a fact base, you know, on the basis of fact, that's fine. But to make up stuff and be like, Well, it's because some Israeli magicians bippity bobpity booed a space laser and it mu scrambled Trump's brains and made him do it, that's not accurate, but Just base it on fact. And so With this, this fight over the funding, again, it's just continued operations. Not a war. Congress hasn't declared anything.
And we've been. insanely successful. We talked a little bit about this yesterday. My friend Kurt Schlichter had a really good piece up at Town Hall where he was just flabbergasted that anyone would try to argue that America was in any way. Not being successful with us.
You know, he was with the Japanese prime minister yesterday. I loved. They're You could tell they get along. I loved their back and forth. And when he sat there and made the joke about Pearl Harbor, and she just, you know, her eyes lit up and you could tell she thought it was funny.
And it wasn't just a polite smile. As a way to somehow suggest embarrassment. No, you could tell she thought it was funny. But.
Now we have the rest of Europe getting on board.
Now, this came after, what, two weeks of headlines where the press was saying, Europe, oh, Trump is totally lucky, he's finally destroyed NATO. They've been wanting to have that headline for a while. Oh, Trump's destroy NATO. I don't agree with all the moves that he's ever made with NATO. And I say that just so you kind of understand my perspective.
I'm calling balls and strikes with everything. There were some countries that I don't think he should have pushed to include because he did expand it. I think that he should have probably demanded a greater percentage of their GDP be spent on defense instead of just the same standard entry-level line. of what was it, 2.3%. Mm-hmm.
You know, I there's some there's some criticisms, but To say that he destroyed it, that's what the media has been saying forever. And it's just, you can't say that he is bossing all of Europe around while simultaneously destroying NATO. You can't have both of these narratives simultaneously. And now they're all coming around. Although The oil.
The price of oil, that's the next thing that they're very upset about. Oh, well, you know, look at him, his price of oil. Do you realize, though, we don't get, guys, we don't get our oil from there. You realize this, right? They're doing this just as a way to hedge bets on risks.
This is why Trump wanted to get involved with the war risk insurance.
Now do you see how smart that was? And to try to combat what Lloyds was doing in London. Incredibly smart. They need to let him finish it. The reason why this has been a problem for so long is because no other president has had the balls to do it.
That's not Kissing backside, and I'm going to tell you something. Again, let me toot my own horn. I am literally one of the only commentators on the right that has been critical and has offered praise when due consistently. I have been slammed. People called me a never-Trumper just because I voted for him three times in the general, but had somebody different in the primary.
So I couldn't hear a damn thing from anybody on this. But he's doing the right thing in Iran. Spot on. If you were going to carry out. a uh military response.
This is how you do it. It's incredibly smart. And Europe just wanted to sit back and they wanted They wanted the United States to handle all of it. And it's not happening that way for them. And it doesn't help that we're going into midterms because it's made it to where a lot of Republicans are a little nervous to be bold.
I think you would agree with that. They're a little nervous to be bold. They're not. They're not looking at the bigger picture. But this has been, he's been incredibly successful at this.
And he didn't, by the way, he didn't really ask anything from our European allies before this started, right? He was just like, hey, if you want to help, otherwise get out of the way. If you're if you would like to help. The fate of NATO doesn't rest in the hands of the United States. The Fate of NATO Rests in the hands of at or the spines of these European nations.
And that's a true story. They need us as a partner in the Persian Gulf more than we have ever needed them. They get more, we get, what is it? It's under 7%. that we get.
We don't need this at all. This isn't the only reason that we're seeing an effect on any kind of oil and gas is because Of The, what is it, the mines and some of the drones that they have towards the bottleneck of the Strait of Hormuz so Iran can try to control it. I mean, we could clear it out and we could offer the war risk insurance, which also, by the way, takes the UK down a peg. People need to let him do what he's doing. We've grown up with Iran being a threat our whole lives.
I have friends and family. I have family that have injuries due to. Being deployed, and it's either from Iranian mines or Iranian munitions, et cetera. Everybody knows somebody. Everybody's family, there's not one that's untouched.
But no president has had the spine to do it. I just think he just does not care. He does not care. He is looking at his legacy. And he knows that when you're going through hell, you keep going.
He's looking at his legacy and he's looking at what is going to bolster my legacy, getting rid of this problem. and bringing some stability. that affects the na the the nation's stability? I mean Bush didn't do it. Clinton didn't do it.
Obama made it worse. I mean All of this, it's incredibly important. But I put some things up on Instagram. Last night a collection of I think some of Trump's best. Diplomatic moments.
him going bomb the blank out of him. I think it was kind of funny. But if the United States If we can hold our position. Iran's ability to consistently make war. Removing their ability to continue enrichment, removing their ability, their stockpile of missiles.
You are going to see. I would say a generational level of calm and peace. that is unknown to us.
Now, as I said before, I get it. Conservatives are very nervous about this stuff. Believe me. I've been nervous about it, I think, for forever. I've got sons.
Military age. I get it. And I've got family members that are serving. I get it. It is the last thing that you want to commit people to, but if there's a Possibility.
to do it in the most peaceful way possible. Limiting. Loss of life and resource. Do you take that moment or do you wait until it gets a lot worse? And the the chances, because that's that's a certainty.
I'm not just saying that. Literally every strategist is saying that. They're going to be teaching this stuff at military colleges. This is the art of war right now. It's not even attrition.
It's not even to see who can wait. We're just sitting there as they just, you know, peter out all their drones. That's it. We are And there are people who are angry at him because he is so close. Look at how they're trying to divide the right.
That's how close he is. He will go down as one of the greatest presidents in American history. If he is allowed to be successful in this. And I get it. Like I said, we're nervous as conservatives.
We grew up with never-ending wars. I mean, my parents were the Vietnam generation. My grandparents were the World War II generation. I We know this. I mean, good grief.
I will never forget when I was in junior high. And shock and awe was kicking off in Iraq. And I was watching members of my family. We kept having going away parties because the boys were going off. That was a crazy thing to grow up with.
And we have lived through that. We're used to seeing it.
So I get why there's a ton of sensitivity to it. And I get why you think that. Is this going to be more of the same? Because it's all we've ever had. It's always been more of the same.
But I am greatly encouraged that it is not more of the same because already. I think he's the only person that hasn't gotten us involved in anything. That's been Mission Creep and Over the Skis. Everything has been quick in and out, mission accomplished, quick in and out. Objective completed.
I have nothing to see. That makes me say that this would be unlike the previous.
So he's earned my benefit of the doubt on that. Our partners that help bring you the program. It's the folks over at SuperB Zero Sugar. Zero sugar, folks. That's what they've created.

Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Smart Talks with IBM. I recently sat down with IBM's chairman and CEO, Arvind Krishna.
And I asked him, how can companies use AI to its fullest potential to create smarter business? My one advice to them. Pick areas you can scale. Don't pick the shiny little toys on the side. For example, If anybody has more than 10% of what they had for customer service Ten years ago?
They're already five years behind. If anybody is not using AI to make their developers who write software, 30% more productive today. with the goal of being 70% more productive. So we are not asking our clients to be the first experiment on it. We say, you can leverage what we did.
We're happy to bring out all our learnings, including what needs to change. In the process, because the biggest change is not technology. is getting people to accept. that there's a different way to do things. To listen to the full conversation, visit ibm.com/slash smart talks.

Um It's his life mission to make bad decisions. Yeah. It's time for Florida Man. All right, first up here with uh Florida man. We've got Oh gosh.
A Florida man doing 101 miles per hour in a 55 mile per hour zone was, quote, trying to avoid an animal, say deputies. Run away from it? Uh 32 year old Gregory Dolcine. A super speeder. Is that a term?
I guess the thing is the Lord of Law. Huh. Uh they uh saw the guy going at an excessively high rate about 1 a.m. They pulled thirty two thirty two year old Dulcine over for going a hundred and one and a fifty five. And he said, No, I was speeding to avoid an animal in the roadway.
They didn't believe him because apparently he was speeding for quite some time. that they observed.
So They ended up arresting him. But I do like his excuse because it could have been like this guy. Apparently, a driver confronted a massive python constricting a deer. on this side of a Florida road. How does the deer, first off, get involved?
The driver intervened. I don't even want to play this clip, but it showed it constricting it. And uh it was having some trouble. It looked like it was already capturing it and it and and it's like one of those re the big reticulated pythons. The driver got out of the vehicle, grabbed a branch and started striking the snake from a distance and that caused the snake to uncoil and retreat.
Um And apparently, they said that if you mess with them while they're feeding, it's very dangerous. But can't you outrun it? What a snake? Yeah. Yeah, pretty much.
Like a big one like that. This is why you should always have a Taurus judge, just like there. Just bam, that's a little shotgun in your pocket. But I mean, I was watching that video thinking, would you have stopped and helped the deer? I think I'd have stopped and helped the deer.
Yeah, I think I would have too, because I don't like them snakes, and I don't want this snake to have a happy meal. No. Our partners who bring you the program, ladies and gents, it's the folks over at Noble Gold. Noble gold investments, and they know gold and silver, these are safe. havens.

Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of Smart Talks with IBM. I recently spoke with IBM's new Director of Research, Jake M. Bata. We discussed his vision for the future of quantum computing. At IBM Research, what we always do is answer: what is the future of computing?
Whether it's coming up with new algorithms, coming up with better AI, coming up with quantum, or coming up with just how do different accelerators go together. It's our DNA to answer the question of what is the future. Isn't it a perfect problem for IBM because you kind of need to have a legacy of building stuff? Yes. Building actual Physical machines.
Yeah, it's why I came to IBM. I wanted the experience The culture of building hard things. That others have not done before. Where do you imagine we are in the timeline of this technology? There will come a point.
When it will mature, right? My cell phone is a mature technology at this point. How far are we from that point with content? By 2029, we'll build the first fault-tolerant corner computer. That is one that can run a very, very large, large problem.

Yeah. Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. League zone in the minors, you're doomed to fail in the big leagues. Pitch is a breaking ball outside. We had our first challenge and the call was overturned.
on a pitch that was right down the middle of the plate that was called a ball. That Was a ball? Are you kidding me?
Now, here's the reason why this is really making the news. It's because it was a lady ump, isn't that correct? That's not She's the first female home plate umpire in MLB history. And that's a horrible call.
Okay, I'm going to say something incredibly controversial, and I don't care. I don't want Women umpires? I don't want women pastors and I don't want women door kickers. There we go. That's not controversial.
Not up for debate. That's not controversial. The end. It's like me going to NFL and trying to Officiate. Look, I know my limitations.
I am not so high on my own supply that I don't know my own limits. And that's I can't draw to save my life. I am ju I like pretty like pictures. Can't make it. Can't do it at all, but I like it, right?
I just don't have that skill set. As many times as my husband has tried to explain football to me in our 25 years of marriage, 25 years. I should be an expert now because he is a huge, huge football fan. No, I can't. I can't.
And I blame part of that for growing up in a baseball town in St. Louis, you know, with the cards. And uh I just that's just It's like me going and officiating NFL. How in the hell was that a ball? At least these games didn't don't count yet.
But still they're gonna at some point. I feel like I just try to watch a woman parallel park. I'm not trying to be mean, ladies.
Some of you out there are exceptions to the rule, but there's a reason why they're stereotypes because they're statistics that. kind of underlie it, right? It's like men don't know the difference between salmon and pink. Of course, some women don't either. These are not colors I wear.
But you know what I mean? Like it's salmon. It's just pink. It's salmon. Or that's blue or cerulean, which sounds like a Lord of the Rings elf tribe.
Right? There's things that there's just were different. I just, how is that a ball? What is there Steve? What are like the requirements to be an uh an ump?
My good friend is in the system right now, and he's been doing it for almost a decade, and he's still not up to the majors yet.
So I don't know how she got there. Gotta be able to see. A decade, and he's not in the majors.
So you gotta pay your dues to get up to that level. You can't be like, I wanna be in. Yeah. How the hell did this girl get up here? DEI.
You think it's DEI? Oh man. Can you imagine? One day a doctor's gonna be rearranging your guts, hopefully not, and they're gonna have gotten in that role because of, you know, their copulatory bits. I've told you a million times, but I'll say it again.
I always carry. I always, you know, you guys get it, right? I mean, giggity glock o'clock. I will literally, you know. I have no problem defending myself.
But here's the thing, you're sometimes denied that right. Uh, unconstitutionally, of course, especially by entities that refuse to provide you with the proper adequate security, but they expect you to be a sitting duck.
So, you have you know, gun-free zones, you've got municipal private property. There's a lot of college kids that are old enough to carry full auto overseas, but they're not old enough to carry semi-auto nine-millimeter here at home to protect themselves.
So, what do you do when you're denied your constitutional right of self-protection? You diversify, right? You have different calibers, you even have blades, you got rifles, pistols, the whole thing. But you need to be able to have a backup for that backup, and that's where Burna gun comes in. Burner shoots chemical irritant projectiles that can deter threats from up to 50 feet away.
And the compact launcher, I know they have other models, I'm not talking to you about the other models right now. I don't care. Compact launcher is the only one that you need to look at for this purpose. CL for short, it shoots the same thing, chemical irritant projectiles. But here's the kicker: it has a 15-round shot capacity per cartridge.
When you compare that to an average stun gun, you got one or two rounds. This is 15 rounds, so that's very, very different. Also, it's not a gun, doesn't care about gun-free zone signs, they're invisible to the Burner gun because not a gun. You order it online. There's no background checks.
There's no waiting fees. There's no permits. And they send it right to your front porch.
So it's all about being prepared and having options, diversifying your weapons array to take control of your safety. Visit burna.com slash Dana. Check out the Burna C L B Y R N A dot com slash Dana. Ready when you are. Hello, hello, I'm Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Smart Talks with IBM.

And now, all of the news you would probably miss. It's time for Dana's Quick Five.
So this is actually kind of funny, and I sent this to a friend of ours, a retired Navy vet.
So apparently in the French military they have the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier. and a sailor on the carrier revealed its location accidentally. by using a fitness tracker, Strava. while jogging on the ship's deck. And he's, you know, he's jogging, he's doing his.
He's doing his stuff and uh that ends up That ends up pinging and it ends up giving it away. It ended up in a French publication that reported it. Le Monde. the uh Le Monde publication. I mean he's trying to stay in shape, I guess, but I don't know.
I think it's funny. But apparently, Strava, a lot of people use it. And it pings you.
So maybe if you're in the military, don't be using that. Don't track it on a just don't do it. Don't use that because it gives away your location. Uh, very interesting. I thought that was kind of funny, but uh, yeah, he's out there, you know, living his best life, doing his exercises.
Now he's really gonna have to do push-ups, a cleaning, he's gonna be in a lot of trouble now. Uh, also, we have. A man was arrested. Oh my gosh. A man was arrested because he shattered $240,000 worth of the Chihuly.
glass, the sculptures. 250. $240,000. It's in Seattle. Apparently, the man attacked the museum's security staff when he was caught.
and it was the Chihuly Garden and Glass at the Seattle Center. And uh yeah, he apparently busted a a big uh sculpture or a big uh uh installation. And uh they responded. It was uh Monday night and the place was surrounded by police cards cars. Security found the man inside.
Just smashing. the exhibits. He had started throwing glass at the police and trying to stab them with the broken glass. They said a dozen displays were broken. Each of them were worth about $20,000.
That's why. I mean there's no they're charging they charge them this week. I I don't know, but that's uh I see these stories every day. New York City subway rider pushed under the tracks after a man asked him for money. He didn't have any money on him, so he wasn't able to give the man money, and the guy shoved him onto the tracks.
The victim is a 35-year-old man. And the suspect approached, asked for cash. The victim said, I didn't have any.
So he shoved him on the tracks. He got minor injuries. He was at the New York Presbyterian Allen Hospital. Apparently, they kept him because his injuries were minor, but enough for observation. And the suspect fled the station in an unknown direction.
They have no idea where he is. This happens like all the time there. I keep seeing these stories. Stick with us. We have a lot more in store.
