| Good day. | |
| Have you ever been in a store and there's a mother talking to her kid and the kid's not paying attention. | |
| The kid's acting up. | |
| And the mother, instead of grabbing the kid or leaning down and mumbling what can only be interpreted as some kind of a threat, the way our mothers normally do, like, if you don't do what I say. | |
| But instead, you get this. | |
| Now, what if the other children grabbed something off of the shelf? | |
| Something that they wanted. | |
| What would happen to the rest? | |
| And this is as you're trying to move up. | |
| And Mr. Rogers here, or Mrs. Rogers, is... | |
| Why do you think she's doing that? | |
| She's doing that not for the child's benefit, but for your benefit. | |
| She wants you to see that she's the great mother. | |
| She wants you to see this. | |
| Not... | |
| That she knows what she's doing, but she wants you to see that she's the great mother. | |
| You see? | |
| See how this works? | |
| You do things sometimes to look like you know what you're doing. | |
| And in your job, most of the time, I can't say this enough, you have to look like you know. | |
| What you're doing. | |
| There was a fellow years ago I used to work with. | |
| He was kind of in the engineering. | |
| Well, slash production is hard to say. | |
| These distinctions don't mean anything anymore. | |
| And he was always walking around with carts. | |
| We had cart rides. | |
| I'm dating myself. | |
| He was always walking around. | |
| And people would say, Jerry, I'm busy right now. | |
| And he'd keep going. | |
| So finally I asked him, I said, I think I know why you carry something. | |
| So that you always look busy. | |
| He said, exactly. | |
| And he learned it from a guy in engineering who said, if you're ever carrying a ladder, nobody will ever bother you. | |
| And I'm thinking, you've got to carry a ladder. | |
| Not a big ladder, but even a step ladder. | |
| People will not bother. | |
| Because the key to life is looking like you know what you're doing. | |
| Those who can do, those who can't. | |
| And a couple of things I want you to listen to. | |
| Be very carefully. | |
| The media are not here to illuminate, to educate, to make you smarter, to make you think. | |
| It's not happening. | |
| They're there to survive. | |
| And they're there doing their best to create The illusion, the perception that they are providing some media, whatever. | |
| They are doing this so as to give you this sense of, I know what I'm doing. | |
| And you're seeing it now, especially, forget bank collapse, you're seeing media stories. | |
| And one of them, remember, when things get tough, they always go back old school. | |
| I've seen it a million times. | |
| Rule number one. | |
| Never get innovative people who truly understand what something is about. | |
| Never. | |
| You want to get somebody who knows corporate. | |
| Somebody who's been in the company. | |
| Positions and other whatever. | |
| But people who have been who have been in sales or maybe head of a... | |
| They used to have these things. | |
| I'm a charger. | |
| Group one. | |
| There was a fellow the other day who put out a... | |
| He used to be in radio. | |
| He used to be a big shot. | |
| There is no more. | |
| Radio, for the most part. | |
| There is no more. | |
| Well, the classic terrestrial. | |
| The stuff that used to be. | |
| You know, the station groups. | |
| And he put out an article about how to deal with talent. | |
| And thinking, what is this? | |
| From the 80s? | |
| They don't know what year it is. | |
| They're trying to look important. | |
| They're trying to look like they know what they're doing. | |
| And the hardest thing for people to understand... | |
| The hardest is to step back and ask yourself, what am I trying to accomplish here? | |
| What am I trying to accomplish? | |
| And people will say, well, I want to do a TV show, a radio show, a podcast, but what are you trying to accomplish? | |
| Ultimately, the answer is metrics and all that stuff because that's really all that matters. | |
| But how do you think you'll get that? | |
| What is your goal? | |
| What are you trying to accomplish? | |
| Do you want to act like you know what you're doing or do you want to really do something? | |
| The other day, there was a group of people who met for this rather grand event. | |
| And they were broadcasters. | |
| And virtually all of them, but many of them who were there were at this event to try to get a new gig because their radio or TV, whatever, it's over with. | |
| It's been either shuttered, compartmentalized, redirected, refocused, whatever you want to call it. | |
| So they were at an event of broadcasters Trying to get a gig. | |
| Because there's no broadcasters. | |
| It's changed. | |
| And what the good people will do is they'll say, oh, I understand this. | |
| I got it. | |
| The essence of broadcasting never changes. | |
| The essence of information never changes. | |
| That never changes. | |
| But maybe, you know, went from AM to FM to talk to podcasting to whatever it is. | |
| It doesn't matter. | |
| It's the essence of it. | |
| What am I really trying to do here? | |
| What am I really trying to do? | |
| And the first thing I want to tell you before we get into something, and listen to me very carefully. | |
| If you... | |
| There's a rule in trial law about cross-examination. | |
| Don't. | |
| And let me just tell you something right now. | |
| if you're thinking about having a guest on, don't. | |
| Think about this. | |
| Why do you have a guest? | |
| Because you're not able to cover it. | |
| You're not able to carry it. | |
| Nobody wants to hear you. | |
| They want to hear somebody else. | |
| Let me say this again. | |
| When you have a guest on, when you have somebody, and sometimes you can say, here we have a Martian. | |
| You know, that's a good one. | |
| I don't have anything to say. | |
| I'll ask a question. | |
| Well, is it your show? | |
| Is it? | |
| What is this? | |
| What is your show? | |
| Is it about you? | |
| If you never talk on your show, it tells me. | |
| It's like, wow. | |
| I've never seen anything. | |
| I've never seen anything like it. | |
| This subjugation, this abnegation, this... | |
| And it's everywhere. | |
| Here's another thing they do. | |
| When you're trying to reconstitute a network, you'll get refugees from old shows. | |
| You'll get, well, I'll get him. | |
| He's a name. | |
| Excuse me. | |
| You're a news show? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Is it about news? | |
| No. | |
| It's about looking like we're a news show. | |
| Like the mother who wants everybody to think she's a good mother by verbalizing all this psychological nonsense. | |
| It's not about news. | |
| I don't know about news. | |
| I don't read this stuff. | |
| I don't know. | |
| What are you doing? | |
| I don't know. | |
| I'm trying to look like I know what I'm doing. | |
| I don't understand the essence of it. | |
| It's incredible. | |
| Now the next point I want to make to you is very simple. | |
| Listen to me and listen carefully. | |
| There is going to be a new level of liability, civil liability, I don't know about criminal, but civil liability, administrative, where people are going to be held accountable for the information that they give. | |
| Too many, and I'm not saying misinformation, disinformation, please, I'm not saying that. | |
| I'm talking about somebody who says something and you do it. | |
| Every now and then somebody feels so imbued, so empowered by what their thing is that they will say things. | |
| They will say things. | |
| And they will never say, excuse me, I'm not an expert. | |
| I remember one time hearing somebody say, listen, this is plant-based food by people, not vegans, plant-based. | |
| Somebody said, listen, if you cut out all meat and blah, blah, blah, blah, you can stop taking your, you know, your lipid stuff. | |
| Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait, what? | |
| Wait a minute, you're telling people to change their medication? | |
| No, no, no, no, no. | |
| This is, you are, you are, this is, Beyond your... | |
| No, don't do this. | |
| Don't do this. | |
| Don't say that. | |
| Oh, no, no. | |
| You don't have to worry about this. | |
| Hey, I'm on a diet where all I eat is meat. | |
| That's all I'm eating. | |
| And I feel great. | |
| And I don't eat anything but meat. | |
| Raw meat and I lick salt. | |
| And you should do that too. | |
| Okay. | |
| Somebody does it, he's diabetic, goes into ketoacidosis, and you get all of a sudden served with some complaint because you told somebody, and you say, excuse me, I'm not an expert. | |
| No, you didn't say that. | |
| You said do that. | |
| And so, by the way, these little disclaimers are more important than you might think. | |
| I hear this stuff all the time. | |
| I was diagnosed with such and such, and I just did juicing and fasting, and wait a minute. | |
| Wait a minute. | |
| Hold it. | |
| Don't say that. | |
| Be careful. | |
| Somebody's going to listen to you and do what you say or not hear you exactly. | |
| They're not going to hear you exactly. | |
| You're getting a little bit... | |
| So, why do I say this? | |
| When you're on TV, listen to me. | |
| If you're on TV or any kind of thing or whatever, and you say, I'm an expert in finances. | |
| I know about investing, stock market, I'm it. | |
| And after you've been doing it for a while, your kind of ego is inflated to the point where you're unable to even judge reality, and you say, this! | |
| Buy this! | |
| Whatever this thing is. | |
| You buy it! | |
| Take my word for it! | |
| Buy it! | |
| Wait a minute. | |
| Really? | |
| You betcha. | |
| Because I'm the greatest. | |
| I'm making more money. | |
| I made my money from TV. | |
| Not from my investments, but they don't know that. | |
| That's me. | |
| And the bolder I am, the more my numbers go up. | |
| And the louder I am, the more my numbers go up. | |
| And more of this. | |
| Money? | |
| No. | |
| This. | |
| So in keeping with that, I'm going to say, buy this. | |
| And let's say you buy it and go, is he responsible for this? | |
| Is he a liability? | |
| You're going to see more and more of it. | |
| There's something in law called estoppel. | |
| Estoppel is a weird thing. | |
| It's this great little, there's this case, I think it was Hammer against Sidway, was that it? | |
| Was that? | |
| Don't get me wrong. | |
| It's like one of the first cases you learn in contract law. | |
| An uncle tells his nephew, I'll give you money if you stop smoking. | |
| He stopped smoking. | |
| He says, okay, I stopped smoking. | |
| I'm not going to pay you. | |
| What do you mean? | |
| Well, you benefited from not smoking. | |
| No, no, I stopped smoking because you told me you'd pay me. | |
| I relied on you. | |
| Justifiable reliance. | |
| You were stopped from not paying. | |
| They relied on you. | |
| Now, sometimes, Also, when you hold yourself out as an expert, it's a different story. | |
| When you say, I know what I'm doing, and by the way, the standard of care that most people realize, you realize that negligence, I'm going to go back, negligence is a very simple thing. | |
| You've got to prove this. | |
| Number one, did you owe a duty to somebody? | |
| Yes. | |
| Did you breach that duty? | |
| Yes. | |
| Were there damages? | |
| Yes. | |
| And was the breach of that duty the proximate cause of those damages? | |
| Yes. | |
| That's negligence. | |
| If, however, that duty that you owe is a little bit special because you held yourself out as an expert, well... | |
| And that goes for DIY shows, for people on... | |
| I see it all the time on videos, and here's how to use a sword. | |
| Here's how I put up a deck. | |
| Here's how I support a beam. | |
| Here's how I unload a 1911. | |
| Here. | |
| Ooh. | |
| Ooh. | |
| And invariably, the person who's going to come and sue you is going to say, I took your advice. | |
| And you're going to say, that wasn't my advice. | |
| And they're going to say, oh, yes it was. | |
| Well, you didn't do it the right way. | |
| Or I put a disclaimer. | |
| Well, I didn't understand it. | |
| Watch what I'm saying. | |
| Watch what happens. | |
| This is something which is so incredible. | |
| Watch what happens. | |
| Here's something else. | |
| What about this? | |
| Let's say, I have a competitor. | |
| I have a competitor in the business. | |
| And he has this, I don't know, this diet coming up. | |
| I'm a nutritionist, he's a nutritionist, and we're always battling each other. | |
| And I know he's got this thing coming out next week. | |
| Or whatever. | |
| And it's about eating bacon. | |
| Let's say. | |
| I don't know. | |
| I'm making this very, very simple. | |
| And I know this. | |
| And I know this. | |
| And he doesn't know I know this. | |
| And I know they're going to make their big publication announcement two weeks from now. | |
| This big bacon diet. | |
| Okay. | |
| I start flooding everything, because I'm a big shot, about, let's say, anti-bacon or anti-pork or whatever it is. | |
| And some of the information is, well, it doesn't matter. | |
| And I say things like, you know, if I were you, I wouldn't eat. | |
| And lo and behold, his book is announced and they go, oh, Baker, no, we heard about it. | |
| Remember when Oprah years ago was sued, I think, by the Chicago, was it the Futures, where she said, you're not going to get me eating a burger or something like that? | |
| And just her opinion caused the Futures to drop or whatever it was. | |
| Well, what happens if you're out there and you're saying, you know, I'm going to short something or I'm going to do it. | |
| Or I'll tell you what, the government better bail this out. | |
| If not, there's going to be a whatever. | |
| Now, it could be my opinion. | |
| It could be based on fact. | |
| It could be based on a lot of things. | |
| But what happens if I'm doing it deliberately to cause a fluctuation in market volatility? | |
| You know, we talk about these things. | |
| You've heard about this. | |
| Insider trading. | |
| Insider trading is so interesting. | |
| 10B5 stuff from Blue Sky and SEC stuff. | |
| I know that there is a drug that did not get its approval or did get its approval, so either I short it or whatever I do. | |
| But I use this information that I got that other people don't have. | |
| And I would venture to say it happens more than you could ever even imagine, but let's assume theoretically. | |
| And I go out and I use it to my advantage. | |
| That's insider trading. | |
| Well, what if I use that kind of theory like it's the opposite? | |
| I'm not benefiting on something that I'm learning. | |
| I'm telling everybody something so that they will act accordingly en masse. | |
| What I just described to you, don't worry. | |
| Nothing's going to happen. | |
| Nothing's going to happen. | |
| Now let me tell you how to do it the right way. | |
| Let me tell you how to do it. | |
| Give an example. | |
| Let's talk about this. | |
| Here's how you sell something. | |
| And this is what I sell. | |
| Right now my Patriot Supply has a deal and here it is. | |
| Here's the information. | |
| There is the data. | |
| And that's it. | |
| Right now, you get an emergency food kit and an Alexa Pure Pro water filtration system free with it. | |
| That's the fact. | |
| It's called emergency food. | |
| This is how you get it. | |
| You can read up all about it. | |
| I suggest you do. | |
| And I'm telling you, that's a fact. | |
| And more people than you can imagine say, got it. | |
| That's it. | |
| It's that simple. | |
| It sells itself. | |
| I'm not promising you anything. | |
| I'm not telling you anything. | |
| I'm saying, you know, when somebody sells you a smoke detector, a carbon monoxide detector, when somebody sells you brakes, burglar alarms, things like that, they don't have to tell you. | |
| You know there's these things, Colbert. | |
| You know this. | |
| That's as clear as you can be. | |
| And right now, I suggest you go to preparewithlionel.com. | |
| Preparewithlionel.com. | |
| Read this. | |
| Look at this. | |
| Because most people have said, I didn't even know they had this. | |
| You know, when you said emergency food, I don't know what I expected, but look at the variety. | |
| 25 years shelf life? | |
| 2,000 calories a day? | |
| Yeah, 90 days? | |
| Read this. | |
| PrepareWithLionel.com That's it. | |
| Here's another one for you. | |
| Okay? | |
| Fact. | |
| There are these... | |
| Things called emergency, excuse me, electromagnetic pulses, EMPs. | |
| And historically, there have been one in particular, these solar supercoronal, it's called a Carrington event, or Carrington class event. | |
| Sounds almost like a like a destroyer or something, or an aircraft carrier. | |
| But anyway, there's a company called EMP Shield. | |
| Here is the link. | |
| Read this. | |
| Read what they have to say. | |
| Read the certifications. | |
| Read the warranties. | |
| Read it. | |
| Read this. | |
| Makes complete sense. | |
| Read it. | |
| You decide. | |
| I'm not promising you. | |
| I'm not telling you if you don't do this. | |
| But just like somebody who says, you know, if you don't get a burglar alarm, you're going to be burgled. | |
| Nobody says that. | |
| But nobody has to say that. | |
| So that's that. | |
| See, I believe in telling people the truth. | |
| That's it. | |
| But when you're involved in something and you get involved, like some of these shows, I'm listening to this right now. | |
| Here's another one for you. | |
| When somebody says, you know, this guy who predicted whatever. | |
| There's always somebody who always predicted something. | |
| You know, he predicted Charles Ponzi. | |
| He did? | |
| He said, how old is this guy? | |
| Well, you know, he predicted the end of Lehman. | |
| Really? | |
| He predicted the end of... | |
| Oh, really? | |
| He predicted the Depression. | |
| He did? | |
| Oh, he did. | |
| How do we know that? | |
| And when somebody does that, and he's saying this. | |
| Now, here's a new one for you. | |
| Listen to me. | |
| What happens if somebody goes to a company and says, I want you, because you know the various media today, you can, if you were the royal family, you can say, how would you like access to us? | |
| Really? | |
| Absolutely. | |
| You want to have access to Princess, to Princess, to King Chuck? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Now you know that printing bad things would be a problem. | |
| It would make us disinclined, perhaps, to... | |
| Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Now, that's not illegal. | |
| It's done all the time. | |
| It's his days of Winchell and Hedda Hopper and... | |
| You know, the other one. | |
| Okay? | |
| Now, when I see things like this now, I'm thinking to myself, isn't it interesting how sometimes how certain media... | |
| Become part and parcel of this, of the news. | |
| They will promote somebody. | |
| They will have somebody on. | |
| They will actually promote something. | |
| And what they say is taken either correctly or not correctly. | |
| And the question is, is there going to be liability? | |
| Let's go back to War of the Worlds, the famous Mercury Theater, Orson Welles. | |
| Orson Welles said repeatedly during the course of this, this is not really happening. | |
| This is not happening. | |
| Don't think this is happening. | |
| And nobody cared. | |
| It was so realistic, people went berserk. | |
| Should there be liability for this? | |
| Now my first instinct As a sentient human being, civil libertarian, and all-around good guy, no, no, no, no. | |
| Always, always accelerate, always promote speech, opinion, the like. | |
| Always do that. | |
| Don't do anything to affect it negatively. | |
| The other night I was at the airport, And I was looking at this sign. | |
| And it said, the airline arriving on time baggage carousel. | |
| I thought to myself, this is the best information there is. | |
| This is brilliant. | |
| I see cabs. | |
| God bless cabs. | |
| They're still hanging in there. | |
| And on top, They have little billboards that change constantly with the information. | |
| Brilliant. | |
| Billboards! | |
| In the old days, they'd have a billboard, a guy with a paper, and he'd put them up, you know, with this. | |
| Remember that with that brush? | |
| They change all the time. | |
| Brilliant. | |
| Brilliant. | |
| I love information. | |
| And I love information to be pure, and I love information to just come at you. | |
| And I want you to be able to say, now listen. | |
| In order for you to enjoy this information system, you've got to ask yourself this thing. | |
| You've got to listen carefully. | |
| For the most part, we're going to hold people accountable, but we don't want to scare people so much that people say, I'm not even going to bother with that. | |
| I'm not even going to bother. | |
| We took those baggage signs now. | |
| Why? | |
| Oh, because somebody, we had the wrong number in these suitors. | |
| Forget it. | |
| Now we don't have them anymore. | |
| So you've got to be very careful with that. | |
| And you have to think to yourself, there's a balancing act. | |
| And if ever, there's got to be. | |
| My God. | |
| There is such a balancing act. | |
| Going back to what I said originally. | |
| I don't listen to radio shows. | |
| I listen to snippets. | |
| I like to listen to a segment here. | |
| Usually the first, that's the one that should set the tone. | |
| And I was listening to... | |
| And all it was was one guest after another. | |
| Not a good guest. | |
| Listen, if you're somebody like Howard Stern used to be and you've got star after star after star, that's a different story. | |
| That's a different story. | |
| We have Paul McCartney. | |
| We've got John Lennon. | |
| We've got whatever. | |
| That's one thing. | |
| But I'm listening to this. | |
| And I said, I know what this person is doing. | |
| This person is from the old school and didn't understand that it's not about having guests on. | |
| It's having an interesting show. | |
| And it's not about getting a great host who says, let me tell you what happened to me today. | |
| Where you get to engage and you know the... | |
| Let me ask you this question. | |
| Do you really get to know people? | |
| When you watch shows, do you ever feel like they're broadcasting to you? | |
| Or that they're telling you something about it. | |
| There's one guy. | |
| I'm not going to mention his name. | |
| But he does some kind of interesting shows. | |
| I don't know anything about him. | |
| Larry King was still one of the best anybody's ever seen. | |
| Larry King let on more about himself than you can imagine. | |
| Larry King was better than anybody. | |
| Larry King, during his prime, was it. | |
| It. | |
| And I kind of knew Larry King. | |
| I knew him. | |
| I kind of knew him. | |
| I had the guest on, but the guest was important. | |
| It was this wonderful balance. | |
| And what I do is I hear people. | |
| So, going back again to what I said, remember, I'm throwing about 50 things at you, and you've got to balance everything that I'm saying. | |
| As you are investigating, as you're talking about plane crashes, derailments, banking failure, whatever it is, weather, you have to ask yourself the question, what is my job? | |
| What am I trying to do here? | |
| I'm trying to provide the information. | |
| We are right now in a Nor 'easter. | |
| Sounds like something a pirate would say, Nor 'easter, Nor 'easter. | |
| Okay. | |
| Two. | |
| What am I trying to do? | |
| Well, I'm trying to put the information out. | |
| But, I want people to listen to me. | |
| Why are they listening to you? | |
| Because he kind of sort of liked me. | |
| What happened was, years ago in the world of weather, somebody came out and made a joke. | |
| For some reason, the weather guy is always the goof. | |
| You notice that? | |
| It used to be. | |
| Now weather is like, I don't even know why anybody cares about weather. | |
| But in the old days, it was the goof. | |
| Well, let's go to Teddy Edwards. | |
| Teddy, what do you think about this? | |
| Well, I'll tell you what. | |
| It was hotter than... | |
| How hot was it? | |
| Well... | |
| I'll tell you, it was some kind of... | |
| They had a guy recently, years ago on... | |
| I don't know if they even do this anymore. | |
| It was on Channel 7. He'd go outside. | |
| I said, what is he doing? | |
| Well, right now it's sunsetting. | |
| Excuse me. | |
| It's 625 or whatever when you're 5 o 'clock. | |
| You do this every night. | |
| We know why you're doing it. | |
| Why are you doing this? | |
| Is it a big... | |
| Is it a gimmick? | |
| What are you doing? | |
| And you know what the answer would be? | |
| I have no idea. | |
| I have no idea. | |
| I'm just doing something. | |
| I have no idea why. | |
| I have no idea why I'm out here. | |
| I don't even know why I'm doing weather. | |
| But I'm glad because I'm a weatherman. | |
| But I don't understand this. | |
| There's nothing tricky to it. | |
| You know, let me tell you something. | |
| The weather guys who are in Tornado Alley and Hurricane... | |
| Yeah, Tornado Alley. | |
| You know, that's important. | |
| Oh my God. | |
| That's a science. | |
| But when you say partly cloudy, it's always partly cloudy. | |
| There's a cloud that's partly, it's always partly sunny, partly, it's always partly sunny. | |
| So, go back to what I said originally. | |
| We are in an informational world right now, and you are being blasted with stuff you don't even realize. | |
| And what's the most important thing about what we're seeing right now? | |
| That you don't see. | |
| Not only are we doing, I'm talking to you, in the old days you would be, Forced to. | |
| Not forced, but you would be listening to me. | |
| But now we have live streaming. | |
| We have side bets. | |
| Just like when you have a, sometimes there's a craps game, you have people betting on this side against this one. | |
| So here I am talking to you, and there are other people, which is very nice, who realize, I don't even care what the guy is saying. | |
| I'm just here to talk to other people. | |
| This is another platform for me. | |
| And it's very important that you recognize this. | |
| This is my Twitter, my whatever it is. | |
| And I kind of have friends, and I know people, and I talk to people, and I like to be rebarbative, and I want to fire back to show how smart I am, because that's all we get to do. | |
| I don't even know what the guy's talking about. | |
| But I'm just here every day, and I'm just here to talk to people. | |
| Isn't that fascinating? | |
| You don't see this on... | |
| In any other platform before, radio, TV, you were just watching this. | |
| Maybe you were sending a letter, a postcard, but never did you have actual aside communication as it was going. | |
| Dave, how are you doing? | |
| Pretty good? | |
| Well, I'll tell you what, I'm going to... | |
| I'm going to miss tomorrow's show. | |
| Why is that? | |
| Well, I have to get my... | |
| I got a planner's ward. | |
| You do? | |
| Yeah, I have one of those too. | |
| Yeah, me. | |
| Those are painful. | |
| They sure are. | |
| Meanwhile, this is going on and I'm over here. | |
| I could be doing the monk, you know, with the immolation. | |
| You wouldn't care because you're talking to each other and that's fine. | |
| But how interesting is that? | |
| How interesting is that? | |
| Now, if you want to get people's attention, Jiggle the mic. | |
| Have it go dark. | |
| Not dark. | |
| Have it go soundless. | |
| Watch what happens. | |
| They'll go crazy. | |
| Even though everybody is saying no sound, they've got to say, I've got to say it too. | |
| Because it doesn't matter unless I say it. | |
| Watch that. | |
| Very interesting. | |
| It's just like with social media. | |
| I ate something. | |
| I had a tiramisu. | |
| I had whatever. | |
| But unless I take a picture of it, it didn't occur. | |
| Unless I took a picture of it, I've got to tell you something which I saw the other day, and I'm going to leave you with this. | |
| Somebody whose spouse either passed away, just passed away, or was in the midst of it, and this fellow was chronicling every moment of this poor soul's life. | |
| On Twitter. | |
| And I wanted to reach out and say, stop it. | |
| Please, stop it. | |
| Give this person dignity. | |
| It's all about, here I am, sad face. | |
| Can you get her in the back? | |
| How about this now? | |
| There we go. | |
| We got her arm. | |
| Can you move her arm? | |
| There we go. | |
| I couldn't believe what I was... | |
| I could not. | |
| I've seen it before too. | |
| I thought it was kind of rare. | |
| Here's my mother. | |
| Here she is. | |
| You know, her hand, some hand sticking out of... | |
| A woman who was proud and maybe took care of herself and never went out, you know, just had pride in her. | |
| And here she is in this moment, the last moment on earth. | |
| The last moment on earth. | |
| And death, as you know, is a... | |
| There used to be this thing. | |
| Somebody said, death is the best part of life. | |
| Why do you think they save it for the end? | |
| Okay, that sounds cute. | |
| But no, it's not. | |
| It's not cute. | |
| It's not nice. | |
| And it should be very, very solemn. | |
| It should be very, very dignified. | |
| But I saw somebody actually standing like this. | |
| This is when I step away and say, oh my God. | |
| That would be my opening, that would be the show of shows. | |
| Because that would, not to borrow from Sid Caesar, because that would be, again, this asylum that I'm living in right now. | |
| So, the good news is simply this. | |
| If you don't like the news now, don't worry, because in less than 12 hours, it will be completely forgotten. | |
| I used to give the three-day rule. | |
| Now it's, it doesn't matter. | |
| Now it's not even three days. | |
| It doesn't matter. | |
| Now the good news is, there's a wonderful part about this, is of course sponsorship. | |
| Me being a capitalist, and I'm going to say something about my good friends at MyPillow. | |
| Here's what I'm saying. | |
| Do you like to sleep? | |
| Do you like good pillows? | |
| Do you like one that's temperature controlled? | |
| Yes. | |
| MyPillow. | |
| MyPillow.com, right there. | |
| You can call 800-645-4965 or go to MyPillow.com, promo code Lionel. | |
| Does that make sense? | |
| Makes complete and total sense to me. | |
| And one more thing, and this is important, this is critical. | |
| Right now, as I've said before, during this, I like to say cold and flu season, you have saved up to 15% off of your Z-Stack for an immune booster. | |
| It's not just an immune boost. | |
| It's everything. | |
| You kind of need this stuff. | |
| Vitamin C, zinc, D, D3, and a phytonutrient bioavailable quercetin, a flavonoid, which is an anti-inflammatory like you cannot believe. | |
| Makes complete and total sense. | |
| There's no... | |
| Debate. | |
| I don't think anybody says, you know, I think antioxidants are not good for you. | |
| Well, if there is such a thing, please let me know where that research is because I'm a layman. | |
| I'm not a doctor. | |
| But normally, free radicals, not good. | |
| But Z-Stack is where to go and you use that link right there. | |
| So what I want you to do today, I want you to sit back and look at what's going on. | |
| Keep a pad. | |
| Keep a notepad. | |
| Keep it next to your, just like we had a, remember we used to have one of these near the phone. | |
| And I want you to write SVB. | |
| Monday. | |
| And then wait until you don't see it again. | |
| Okay. | |
| East Palestine. | |
| Write this down and then see, when do we not see? | |
| My God, that was just the other day. | |
| Write down all the stories. | |
| All the, and they just go away. | |
| Are they fixed? | |
| No. | |
| Wouldn't it be great if life were like that? | |
| Where something happens and you forget it away and say, hey, wait a minute. | |
| Didn't Uncle Dave have that problem with it? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Uncle Dave, didn't you have that lesion that was, oh yeah, got infected? | |
| Yeah, whatever happened? | |
| I forgot about it. | |
| Huh! | |
| Life doesn't work like that. | |
| You don't forget about it and it goes away. | |
| It just kind of gets worse. | |
| But in the world of news, you just forget about it. | |
| You just forget about it. | |
| It's gone. | |
| Because people think everything will be taken care of. | |
| I don't have to worry about anything. | |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, they use the word crisis, but it'll work out. | |
| I'm just too busy. | |
| I'm busy, you know. | |
| Doing that stuff. | |
| Don't ever forget why social media are here. | |
| Okay? | |
| Now, let me also ask you, very, very important, please follow me on Twitter, at LionelMedia, and I want you also to find Mrs. L. Follow Mrs. L on Twitter. | |
| Cannot say this enough. | |
| So critical. | |
| Follow her on Twitter, right there, at LinsWarriors on Twitter. | |
| And my friend, you have a great and glorious day. | |
| We'll be back tomorrow. | |
| Same bad time, same bad channel. | |
| Remember, remember what I'm telling you today. | |
| Just watch what's happening. | |
| And a couple days from now, you're going to say, you know what? | |
| He was mentioning that. | |
| And I'm right about this. | |
| And anyway, see you tomorrow. | |
| Same bad time, same bad channel. | |
| As stated, 9 a.m. Eastern Time. | |
| Until then, remember, the monkey's dead. | |
| The show's over. | |
| Sue ya. |
