Hi, hello. Today we are discussing the abduction of President Maduro and the ongoing fallout.
Happy New Year.
Oh my God. Hi. Welcome back to Even More News, the first and only news podcast.
in 2026.
My name is Katie Stoll.
Hello, I am Cody.
Hi, Cody.
Hi.
Greetings.
Greetings.
Welcome to the new year.
Thank you.
I feel so welcome in this bold new year.
As you should.
Everything's different.
Everything is fine, I was going to say, and different it is because it's fine.
It wasn't and now it is.
Don't worry, everybody.
Jonathan is still here.
Hi.
Oh.
Oh, hello, you changed it up.
I got thrown.
I did.
No, you're within your rights to do it.
You should.
Jonathan never left.
I didn't leave.
I've just been here doing the news.
Thought we were recording, staring at an empty Riverside chat.
They're really good episodes.
I listened to them.
Oh, yeah?
You liked them?
Oh, yeah.
They're really good.
They help you catch up with the news and stuff.
Yeah, which we needed because we weren't paying attention.
60 minutes.
Pull this story.
Can you believe that?
Anyway, let's get into it.
Okay, but before we get into it,
should I address the costume controversy up top or at the end?
I don't know.
Look, folks.
Do we want to cut it from the beginning or the end?
Leaving it all in.
Look, real quick, we have the receipts.
We watch the show.
And, okay, per usual, I was not as articulate as I remembered.
That's a thing.
But regardless, it was addressed that there was a costume change.
I get it. I get it. I get it. You're not going to like what I'm about to say. I realize that more of the conversation happened off camera before we were recording where I did absolutely say it was a costume change situation. And no one's going to believe me because it wasn't on camera, but I feel the need to say it. And that is so important that it, I had to say it before we talked to the very important news.
I'll tell you why it's going to be hard to accept that you said beforehand that there was.
So let's just watch a few seconds of this
And I think you'll see from our
Reactions here that it is the first time we're hearing
This information
You would think that but it wasn't because we talked before
I don't want to
Turn people off don't click away
Just because we're recording this in the van
Just because we haven't changed our clothes in two weeks
I'm planning to change
Oh you guys are changing I am going to change from this
I probably am going to change as well, he says.
After we record this, we're going to record our normal episode of even more news that comes out on December 19th.
And so you'll see me in an outfit change.
And Cody said that he was going to too, too.
I might change for the sake of the changing, because it's going to be the same episode.
But I don't know.
My reaction of laughing and surprise would seem to indicate that it was not, that an outfit change was not brought up.
It was confusing.
your reaction was confusing because it was
about it previously. Anyway,
it's fine. We're going to put that to rest
for now.
Outside of this episode.
There's a lot and we'll never talk about it
again, maybe.
We'll replace the holidays with just
relitigating that
every episode.
Folks, we had a whole long
thread going about all the
different stories we wanted to talk
about today to catch us up.
And then
we did crimes, we stole a president of another country, and that's what we're going to talk about.
Jonathan, walk us through the latest in Venezuela.
Yeah, well, that's what happened.
So on Saturday morning, the U.S. military in conjunction with U.S. law enforcement, apparently.
We'll talk about that, went into Venezuela, and Trump says we can use the word kidnapped.
Venezuelan president, Nicolas Maduro, and his wife, they're being charged in a,
federal court in Manhattan with a bunch of conspiracy charges is it regime
change depends on who you ask right now it seems like no what if you ask the
president well the president says we're running Venezuela which just
practically is not true because we don't have a bunch of troops on the ground
controlling their courts and government and all that stuff so no Marco Rubio says well
what that means is we're just going to put pressure on their oil industry and we're going to, you know, make things really tough for them unless they kind of do what they say vis-a-vis the oil, it seems.
One of the main most interesting things to me about this is the various motives for doing this at all, because it seems like everyone involved, the primary trio being Rubio Trump and Heggseth, all having different interconnected motives for,
doing this. Trump seems to really like dominating other people. He seems to feel emboldened. That's why he's
talking about we're going to do it to Mexico. We're going to do it to Columbia, Greenland. He feels
real good about being the king. Military success and whatever is just universally applauded.
You know, lots of praise for Obama, you know, take
out what's his name?
Osama bin Laden.
Wow, we were supposed to never forget and
Osama bin Laden.
Osama bin Laden.
You know, in general, he wants this.
He wants the praise. He wants to be the big, strong
military guy. And this
did, this horrific
excursion
did go well. He did
get the president kidnapped
and brought him to
the United States and we didn't have any
American casualties. There were casualties, Venezuelan casualties. But he's got that rush that like,
yeah, let's do more. Let's do more. This is good for me. Let's distract from Epstein. Let's bolster my
approval ratings. The distraction angle, I think, is a little bit interesting because while no, this is
like a horrific incident that's going to have geopolitical ramifications, like I'm not going to say this
is a distraction from Epstein
but I think for the media
and Trump it sure is like
he sure likes doing this instead of
talking about his horrendous domestic policy
that everyone hates. Yeah and they love that
they have access to him they can call them up
they call them up and they ask him questions
immediately and he's like yeah I'll answer my phone
and talk to you so they love
that about him as well so this is actually good
for both they also love praising
just like any military action
oh the beautiful bombs all that kind of stuff
they like it the military
might of America or you know home of the free land of the brave whatever the fuck but I just
to circle back on that real quick it's not that I think all of this is simply intended to be a
distraction but that is part of it and it it is what they want us to be focusing on instead of
Epstein's stuff all of the stuff all of the stuff that you know they want us to be distracted from
But this has been a long-term plan, and there are bigger geopolitical implications, which we will talk about that they've always wanted to be working towards.
This was put in motion in 2020, and this is the final realization of what these long-term plans have been.
Anyway.
Also, you know, put into motion generally for decades and decades as America does this kind of thing.
Right.
but more covertly like they're you know what a thing to happen what a guy to have in charge
because we used to do these things like with some sort of pretense that wasn't just the president
being like yeah we're going to take the oil we got the oil and we're doing it and now it's ours
and now he's just sort of saying it out loud he's saying he's saying the thing that we do
out loud proudly and boldly and there are going to be no consequences
Yeah, it's blatantly imperialist.
Openly, it's the Don Roe doctrine.
Like, we're doing imperialism.
The Americas are ours to do with as we wish, and maybe with Greenland.
But we used to pretend that, like, we, like, at least like, oh, we're doing it for this or this or this reason.
Like, no, we're just doing imperialism and we're going to extract from all these nations.
The Western Hemisphere is ours.
Yeah.
the claim like no literally like when like for you all the the west the west they mean it
we are the entire western hemisphere now yeah no pretense as of like well the venezuelan people
deserve to choose their own leaders in democracy he's like no uh we'll run it uh i decide who's in
charge right now it's the vice president that's why it's not regime change it's the current
regime is still in charge uh the vice president of uh Venezuela apparently did you see the reporting that
when asked about the opposition leader who won the Nobel.
Yeah, Machado, who won the Nobel Peace Prize.
Well, Trump obviously said, I don't think she's ready.
She doesn't have the support.
And reportedly, that's because she didn't give him the award.
Instead of dedicating the award, instead of dedicating the award to him, he wanted her to reject
the award and give it to him.
She's been like his fan.
This is, it's very funny.
She wins the Felford.
again award. Exactly. It's been this whole thing like, oh, so you think you're going to be
the one, but you should have given him the prize instead of just dedicating it to him.
Idiot. That is absurd. But okay. But this does underscore part of the confusion as to what
happens next. Who will be in charge? Apparently we keep, like we've said, suggesting that the
United States is going to be in charge, but of course we don't have anybody on the ground there.
You know, they like to rely on the justification that Maduro is a dictator and does terrible
things, which is true. People in Venezuela, a lot of people do not like him. Their lives
have been torn apart. However, if we're removing him and the regime stays the change, this stays the
same. The Maduro government just works with him. Then it wasn't really about that. I'm not trying
to weigh in and pontificate about whether or not the United States should be the watchdogs and, you know,
protecting people from their government. But that is a justification that they've put out. People hate
Maduro. Venezuelans are celebrating in the streets. Not all Venezuelans. Some of them are
AI Venezuelans. And some of them are AI. I don't even need to go down that. But I'm trying to
articulate is that
well it's not even
about saving Venezuela
from Maduro of course
it's not of course it's not well yeah they
it's literally just about the oil
not yeah they're not even pretending
but also at the same time it's like
I don't even need I don't even
you didn't even need to say like oh he's
he's a he's a brutal statements like
he's a brutal dictator right we're better
off without him but it was bad
that it did it illegally all this sort of stuff
it's just this weird equivocating like it doesn't
matter we don't I don't even feel the need to be like and I can't I obviously condemn
Maduro and it's better that he's gone it's not our business it's not our business it's not our
job it is not our job and if we're going to do that then are we going to do it to everybody
else are we okay with are we okay with some other nation doing it to us and taking Donald
I mean you know well right because
There are, that's a good point you make, Cody, similar to a point that J.D. Vance made a couple years ago that there are leaders all over the world that you could remove from power and it would probably be better for the people under them. But that's not our job to do. That's a tweet J.D. Vance sent out in 2023. So is his position the same? No. It is not because of reasons involving drugs and et cetera. So.
Oh, he's a fraud.
Oh, he doesn't believe in anything.
He does not care.
Yeah, no, no, it doesn't matter.
No one cares.
This, they seem to have done this with very little, and they admitted this, like, they
didn't know what the plan was next people, reporters immediately said, what's next for Venezuela?
They said, well, we're figuring that out now after we, after we kidnapped the guy.
And so now you've got Trump saying, well,
you know, we're going to work with
Del C. Rodriguez, the vice president
as an off ramp from the
regime. As long as she
stays in line and does what we ask
and of course she immediately went on TV
and said, no, Maduro's
the president, you have to return him, all
this stuff. And so Trump says, great,
we're just going to keep going down the line. Who's the
eighth in line? Who's next? Who's next?
So there's no plan for
what comes next. And if they do want
this is why my whole thing is that
Trump still thinks he's doing the
No More Wars thing. He thinks he can do the get in, get out
real quick thing like they did years ago with Soleimani
like they did a few months ago in Iran, that this is just like
oh, it'll work itself out, go in, take the guy, leave. Now
everything's better. And we're not getting mired in a decades long
thing that everyone will hate me for. Does he think that? Does he think
that? I mean, because because, I mean, that whole article, this New York
Times piece about how the U.S. ran a war game on ousting Maduro back in 2020 and they
see very clearly that Venezuela falls into chaos. I just, I don't know how you could think
that this is just an easy in and out in any situation, except that he doesn't think that he will be
needing to clean up those pieces. Yes. You'll be dead. Let me clarify. He doesn't care what
happens in Venezuela at all. He wants this victory that he can tout as a thing. And he thinks,
thinks it's still keeping his promise that they're all like now pretending that this fits into
the promise of no more war to it elsewhere because yeah as we see so many people out there a
just real quick about the monroe doctrine i keep seeing people like evoke like invoke it as like
a document that's like a law like well look up the monroe doctrine yeah you mean a thing a president
said like it's not that was labeled that decades later
Should we explain that real quick for anybody?
Okay, Cody, you may be fill in the blanks if I get anything wrong here.
The Monroe Doctrine is this idea from the early 19th century that North America and South America is kind of like America, the United States of America's domain and that European colonial power should not meddle in the affairs of Latin and South America because that's like our imperial.
That's our business to business.
We will settle.
And now Trump is making it the Don Roe doctrine, which,
seems to me the exact same thing
plus Greenland or anywhere else
if the strategic resources
to the United States demand it.
Does that seem like I
know the simple Monroe doctor? It's just saying
it's the Western Hemisphere is ours
leave it alone. It's all ours
but it's not like
a legal document
it's not a law. It's
just a position.
It's a way of life man. It's also imperial
and bad and we rejected
that stuff centuries ago.
Is his version of it essentially the same, or is it ratcheted up a little bit more?
Because it does seem to also include, like, keeping people from migrating and, you know, protect.
But it's all about protecting our own self-faces.
He's integrating other aspects of his brain to it.
But this is essentially the same thing.
Yeah.
No, he's like, white man's burdening this thing where he's like, I got to do it.
I got to control.
It's our responsibility.
And that all of these regions need to be protecting the American self-interest and economic,
And it's just, yeah, white man's burning it.
And they're also doing this thing, as you were mentioning and alluding to, where they say, yeah, it's not a forever war.
It lasted 90 minutes.
And sort of like excusing it because they like went in, they did it surgically and they got them out.
And like, that's the end of it.
As if the aftermath isn't like a huge part of why those wars are bad.
And as if this act of war is the end of it, it's, again, this sort of position we're like, yeah, we're very anti-interventionists, unless it's quick and like we get oil out of it.
There are some people like Matt Walsh who are literally just saying that.
There are others who are trying to like navigate that a little bit.
It comes down to, I don't know if you remember this, I believe it was late last year where J.D. Vance was talking about intervention.
in the Middle East, and he talked about how, like, yeah, we don't like doing that.
But back then, that was done by dumb presidents who did dumb things.
They did it badly.
We'll do it well.
And this is the example, I guess.
Just the idea that, like, well, yeah, the interventionist position and all the wars and all
the death, which again, there was a death toll here, that we didn't like it because
it took a long time, and it was done by dumb people. We'll do it smartly and shortly. And then we'll
leave, but also we won't leave. And we'll take their oil, but it's not for oil. It's for the drugs,
which they can only do because of the oil, which we need to take. But we're not doing because
of that, but also, yeah, we are. But we're not there. And will there be elections? We don't know yet.
For Trump, it's oil and domination and feeling good. For Rubio, it's like stepping stone to
Cuba it's Cuba it's all he's going he's going for Cuba and for hegseth it's I like to blow stuff up as my
wife says boys with toys or as Natalia Simanova and golden eye said boys with toys uh yeah
heggseth's having a blast and Vance is just riding the waves till he can be uh hopefully the
present for him yeah like does Trump know that Vance wants him to die Vance wants Trump's heart to
explode preferably as soon as possible preferably preferably right after January 20th of
next year so he could feasibly serve
two terms after that because of the amendment,
but he doesn't like him
and wants him dead.
Thinks he's Hitler and Nixon.
But he wants to be Hitler and Nixon.
Exactly.
That's my job.
God, these people suck so bad.
They're so transparent.
How about the fact that
not shocking, there was
no information given to Congress.
There's obviously no approval at all
because apparently they're afraid of leaks.
although there is reporting that it did indeed leak to the New York Times and the Washington Post
and they chose not to report on it in advance.
It also was, the operation was, the oil companies were clued in.
Well, obviously.
Something that's going to take 10 years to ramp up.
You got to get them started.
Yeah, right away.
Yeah, I need a heads up.
Ten years, even.
I mean, I don't know exactly, but it's like they, the oil industry in Venezuela took
a big enough hit that it's going to take a long time, even in Trump's ideal world to ramp up
oil production and we get all of it, the stolen oil. And in the meantime, think about the decimation
that does to the economy for Venezuelans, you know? It's not regime change, but the new regime
is like ExxonMobil, actually. And they do have a lot of oil, but it's also heavy crude oil,
which takes a lot of processing that they can't handle,
which they're going to do, I guess, billions of dollars in there.
So we got Venezuela and Gaza, Greenland, Cuba, Mexico, Colombia.
Is that enough?
Is that enough for the Dunrow Doctrine?
Apparently people online saying like,
get ready for prices to go down in America.
Hell yeah.
No, don't be so dumb.
Please.
Please, little bot.
Like, realistically, being like a decent human being, if prices went down 30 cents a gallon, is that worth, like, taking over another country and blow? Like, we killed 80 people doing this. What are you talking about?
And the chaos that will likely ensue there. I thought affordability was a Democrat hoax. The gas is already low. We're fine. What are you talking about? Yeah. And Katie, Katie, you mentioned the press being tipped off by whom.
Who knows?
Laura Lumer.
Some signal chaps.
Interesting, yeah.
That they had this information.
They framed it like they didn't do anything because to like protect the troops, right?
But if they did leak and report on it, then they wouldn't have done it, right?
Because that would have made the mission compromise.
They wouldn't have done it.
So really, it's like you're not really.
protecting the lives of the soldiers you're protecting the
effectiveness of the mission I mean also they and they praised it afterwards but
Trump kind of leaked this months ago when he said he authorized covert CIA
activity which was all about monitoring we know now monitoring Maduro's movements
and I'm sure the Venezuelan security intelligence forces had an inkling of that
like it's not like they didn't know that this was a possibility that they've been hinting at for months and months and months and months and months so you know if you've got a chance and it's with what three hours in advance and it's leaked to you and then you report on it that uh Venezuelan reports say that u.s military has like you you report on it as if it's a third party speculating and you don't know that it's happened right that feels to
me like an abdication of some journalistic responsibility.
But they got a heads up that the mission's happening and start working on their articles
in advance, you know, be the first report.
Was Trump's truth social post the first?
Because I woke up right on Saturday morning and was like, ah, Saturday morning, one more
weekend before the bull, you know, and then had to go trying to piece back.
Friday night, I saw a headline.
It was Trump's Post.
Our producer saying yes, it was trust post.
But on Friday night, I saw bomb.
in Venezuela headline or bombs and I went oh no oh no oh no I don't want to look at this right now
I want to go back real quick to the congressional authorization piece because obviously they
didn't let anyone know about it and then after the fact Senator Mike Lee seemed briefly a little
bit concerned about this and then he tweeted that oh I got off the phone with Marco Rubio this is
cool actually, apparently.
And I do want to like, I read a whole
bunch from Steve
Vladick and some other people about
their actual legal argument
such as it is.
The administration is saying that this
was a essentially a law
enforcement action, a FBI
action to go in
and arrest a criminal for
crimes, and since they had to do it extra
territorially in another country,
they're allowed to bring the U.S. military
to protect those FBI
agents, and there is case law and precedent for that kind of thing. It's a real stretch of that
legal argument to say that this isn't really military action. This is just a law enforcement
activity, and it's okay to do that in another country to a foreign head of state, even if he's
not recognized as legitimate as he once was. This is all, like, extremely.
Legally shaky and that's what Marco Rubio is going on TV and saying, well, we didn't need to get congressional authorization because this isn't a military action. We're not at war. Meanwhile, Trump is like, I'm the war king and we blew him up and we'll do it to all of you and I don't care. And so it's one of those things where they're kind of saying different things in court as they're saying on Twitter and on CNN. And of course, it's like a joke. I'm not a lawyer, but it's a joke. It's completely illegal and imperial. And,
and unjustifiable on its face.
And my final point on this is that Congress could still legally stop him from doing it
and stop him from doing anything else if they weren't a bunch of spineless wimps who hate
their lives and jobs.
Yeah, they all have their lives and jobs.
And probably a lot of Democrats, too.
They don't like the president.
They don't like their way they do it.
But they are like, ultimately, like Cody already said, it's not.
Yes, obviously Donald Trump has been laying the groundwork for this for a while, including in 2020.
But as Cody has already said, it's not just that.
This has been decades of people wanting to extract a resource.
Yeah, we like it.
And, yes, contain, have control over a region.
So unfortunately, I think a lot of members of Congress would have wanted it on this.
They would have wanted some of the credit for it.
They would have wanted to, yes, do it the right way.
That's their official thing.
But, like, they're not that mad about it.
They're not that mad about it.
Every statement, some of them, yeah.
And there's also reporting off the record some quiet,
some quiet reporting about how some Democrats are, like,
upset that they have to, like, condemn it.
This is what I mean.
It's like.
And they think it's like, we, it like comes off as a week if you don't support
this that happened and it's clear that not everybody's on board with the fact that this form
of imperialism and interventionism is not good and won't lead to anything good and illegal on
his face obviously it's predictable and funny to see all the like the right wing like we're not
the world police we're not the world police when they're literally like actually this was a law
enforcement matter we sent in the police yeah yeah yeah
Um, it's really, really absurd.
One of the administration's arguments is the drugs, right?
This he's a narco terrorist.
He's doing all the bad drug stuff.
So of course, it makes sense for members of the press to say, hey, what about that
former Honduran president who did all the drug trafficking that you part?
Right.
A month ago, two months ago, something like that.
Doesn't seem relevant.
Trump has asked about this first.
And he kind of vaguely gestures to the people behind.
him and the person directly behind him is Marco Rubio.
I started it very quickly and then I started it in great detail.
I went to a lot of the people standing behind me and they felt that that man was persecuted
and treated very badly.
That's why I gave him a pardon.
When Rubio was asked about it on Meet the Press this weekend, he's asked, does the pardon
of the former Honduran president not undercut the administration's stated goal to go after
these narco terrorists?
Marco Rubio says, number one, the former president.
of Honduras. So this is not someone who was in power, had any influence of the politics of Honduras any longer.
Number two, I don't do the pardon file. I'm not against it or for it. I just didn't review the file.
So I can't speak to you about the dynamics that led the president to make the decision that he made.
I think he talked about it yesterday at the press conference. He reviewed the file. He went through the
argument in it. And he felt that the former president of Honduras was treated very unfairly by the
previous administration and made the decision that he made. Someone in the White House is saying,
pardon this guy
and then everyone else is like all right
whatever like
Trump is specifically saying
is like I do what these morons behind
me so I trust
these dimwits and then
Marco Rubio's like I'm not that dimwit
I can't say whether it was good or bad
I don't know anything
about the the crux of the argument
we're trying to make for why we
straight up went into another country
and kidnapped their president
uh yeah
it does look very similar to the thing that
I can't.
I can't.
Why you ask me these questions on Meet the Press, lady?
There's no moral consistency here.
It was never about drugs, as we've known.
There's never been a shred of evidence that any of the fucking boats contained fentanyl or anything.
In fact, while we were on break, there was some report about one of the testing of the waters
and the debris from one of the explosions and all they found was marijuana, which the president just officially decided we're going to legalize.
federally or whatever his announcements are my point is is it's never been about that they don't
give a shit they don't care it is oh i'm sorry this is it's just that and or quote it's they have
no shame do they they don't even bother to lie badly anymore i suppose that's the final
humiliation that is they do not care they're just going to lie and then they're going to lie about
the guy behind them and the guy behind them is going to lie later or earlier or whatever they're just
gonna it's they don't care it's because they know it works because it's working exactly i know i've
said versions of this throughout the episode today but i do keep thinking about venezuelans and all the
shit that they've been through and continue to go through and how this will affect them in the chaos
and the you know the power struggles the power vacuums the economic insecurity all of the things
that are going to almost certainly happen for a while now
for untold number of years.
And, you know, at the same time, this regime, this Trump regime is banging the drum about
migration and the illegals and all that.
And what do you think is going to happen?
What do you think will happen in the face of all of this disruption?
More people will want to leave Venezuela.
And I just, it's a fucking mess.
It's just a nightmare to me.
And, you know, we go back and forth and like, Venezuelans are thrilled or whatever.
No, this is real.
These are people's lives.
This is someone else.
This is their country.
And we fucking ruin everything.
Again, I know I've said a version of this throughout the show, but I just keep coming back to it.
Everything we talk about are politics.
I'm like, but these are, this is real people's lives, you know, in their country.
Anyway.
It's like brilliant Republican politics to just ruin everything and then when people like us pointed out, they say, well, you just think America's the worst at everything, don't you? You hate America and everything it does. And the answer is, well, not always, but the stuff you do tends to be violent and evil. Wouldn't you agree? You guys get in power and then every single time you go and blow a bunch of stuff up and ruin a couple countries and then crash our economy while you're at it.
So many problems worse.
So it's no, no, it's not hate America first.
It's hate Republicans.
The Republican Party is a stain on everything.
Even like the economy, you just make the economy worse and then the next president fixes it.
And then you got more.
It's just like your whole model is that.
And it works on so many people.
It's going to work like the next time, the next time we get out of this, there's elections going forward, et cetera,
assuming that all happens. There's going to be a Republican candidate for president in 10 years and
everyone's going to think, well, he'll probably keep us out of the wars and do the economy better.
This is a responsible person. And those of us who've lived, I mean, you know, in four decades,
this has happened three or four times already. Keeps happening. Yeah. It's so, it's such recent
history. It's so frustrating. I mean, we did like two of our final episodes of the year last year was
literally like, here's how George Bush made all this stuff easier. And then also an episode about
how we're going to do war at Venezuela because of all the stuff that Bush did. And it's just
they're just doing it all and Trump's making it even easier. So the next person doesn't even have to
pretend to lie. They're just going to, like, we're going to actually kidnap a bunch of people
because we can. And we're doing it for their resources. And in 10 years when some more news is obviously
like the most popular streaming show or whatever we're going to do remember that trump guy here's a
two-part episode about how he was bad bet you forgot didn't you forgot it he's bad yeah but he's what led to
the gnome uh administration and all the bad stuff the gnomes the gnome is doing yeah and i wish it was
like a real like an actual gnome i'd be okay with that wouldn't that be fun but you mean christie
you meant you met christie anyway um folks we
are at the end of our show today
like I mentioned there's
a lot of stuff that happened
over the holidays that we
wanted to talk about GROC
president's health
oh yeah the 60 minutes
things pulled but maybe we will talk about
those things on Thursday maybe
maybe if more crazy
news doesn't break between now and then
Cody you got something
no I'm just going to say the Grock things were like truly
disgusting and abhorrent and I
think people need to
go to jail.
Elon Musk should be in jail right now for now.
Yes.
He's generating.
Yep.
And he's laughing about it.
He loves it.
He should be in jail.
That's just a little cliffing or tease.
We'll talk about it on Thursday because including this.
All right.
Cody, come back.
I can't say goodbye without you here.
Oh, a costume change.
Merry Christmas, everybody.
Holiday costume change.
I can unbutton my sweater.
Oh, geez.
Costume change for the laugh.
We have to leave it in now.
Silent night.
Holy night.
Tan and bombs.
Gene Hackman's song.
