00:00:00.000 On the biggest stage in the world, FanDuel is changing the game
00:00:04.120 because sometimes your player gets subbed off and your bet goes with them.
00:00:07.520 Not anymore.
00:00:08.480 With FanDuel's Super Sub, if your player's subbed out, your bet stays in.
00:00:12.820 That's right.
00:00:13.380 If your player leaves the match, your bet continues on with the substitute,
00:00:17.560 so you're still in it until the final whistle.

00:01:02.640 You mean taxi?
00:01:04.020 Okay, then you want to look around?
00:01:05.300 This is the 77 WABC
00:01:08.380 minicast.
00:01:10.900 Matthew from
00:01:11.760 the Jersey
00:01:13.060 of New. What's up?
00:01:16.320 What's going on, Anthony?
00:01:17.880 Yeah, so I guess my main point
00:01:19.800 would be like, if you look at your last two callers,
00:01:21.980 the younger guys are definitely more
00:01:23.660 anti-israel the older guys pro-israel i think it's um you're seeing like a major shift
00:01:30.360 uh where young people are just kind of tired of
00:01:34.140 specifically like young white guys for sure being spit on being like kind of just told we're the
00:01:41.040 worst of society but now as we saw in like 2001 like i was six when 9-11 happened but like
00:01:48.720 And ever since 9-11, we've been in the Middle East nonstop, spending a bunch of money in wars nonstop.
00:01:58.020 And it's like, when is it going to end?
00:02:01.440 And is more war in the Middle East going to help me get a house?
00:02:06.520 Is it going to help me save money?
00:02:09.420 Is it going to help groceries going to go down?
00:02:11.180 or is it going to help some company that may or may not be in bed with politicians
00:02:17.400 make a bunch of money on new contracts?
00:02:20.200 We've seen this story before.
00:02:22.560 Yeah, Matthew, that's another great point because people are tired of it.
00:02:27.960 It's gone on for so many years.
00:02:30.180 And when people really become cognizant of the problems we have here in this country
00:02:35.600 And then you've got a group of people that have been called a pariah, the worst people in America.
00:02:43.600 You know, you start getting mad, you know, and you're you're you're straight white kid these days is pretty tired of being called the problem.
00:02:56.880 And then when you look at world events and you start to save the world.
00:03:02.620 Yeah, that we have to save the world.
00:03:04.440 It's like, why?
00:03:05.160 I'm a piece of garbage.
00:03:06.220 You told me I am.
00:03:08.040 I think we're at a point now, and this happens politically in this country over the course of the years.
00:03:13.780 It's happened many times.
00:03:15.260 We go from, you know, we've got to save the world to virtual political isolationism.
00:03:22.040 We don't want to get involved in any of the things happening beyond our shores.
00:03:29.220 Pre-World War II was the same thing.
00:03:31.240 Pre-World War I was the same thing.
00:03:33.100 We just wanted to stay out of it.
00:03:35.540 There were a lot of Americans.
00:03:37.440 And then, lo and behold, something happens, like Pearl Harbor, or, you know, what was the situation?
00:03:47.160 And you see guys like Tim Pool now.
00:03:48.960 I'm not sure.
00:03:49.520 Sorry to interrupt.
00:03:50.220 But you see guys like Tim Pool and a lot of other, like, mainstream people now talking about sleeper cells,
00:03:54.900 talking about be prepared for an Iranian attack on U.S. soil.
00:03:57.420 Right.
00:03:57.820 There's not there's not enough, especially from young people, not enough approval, you know, for us to like want to go into a new war like this.
00:04:07.320 So how do you get a large portion of the population to want to go into war?
00:04:12.420 Yeah.
00:04:12.740 You know, I'm not saying I'm not saying that we would I'm not saying that it's a false flag.
00:04:16.640 It's whatever. But maybe you allow for the conditions you allow for open borders underneath four years of a previous administration.
00:04:22.180 Right. To allow things like that to harbor.
00:04:24.260 and then all of a sudden when it's convenient you have possibly something horrible happen that
00:04:29.000 we didn't do it's not like uh you know israel did i'm not saying anything like that but we allow the
00:04:35.640 conditions almost to to harbor in the country for these things to happen and then be shocked when
00:04:41.120 it's like yeah well now we have to go save the world again it's like okay but why do we allow
00:04:44.240 these sleeper cells to form that's what happened it is something to think about that uh maybe some
00:04:50.960 of the powers that be put these situations in place to make it a lot more plausible that these
00:04:56.480 things could happen if we hadn't let in tens of millions of illegals it would be pretty hard to
00:05:03.000 say well there are so many sleeper cells that came into the country during the time when the
00:05:08.600 border was open it's like no it wasn't open it was closed we were vetting a lot of people that
00:05:12.540 came in but if you leave the border wide open it's a lot easier to say well so many came in
00:05:18.640 and we don't know who's in here and what they want to do.
00:05:21.440 It crosses both parties.
00:05:23.640 It's not like this is a reflection.
00:05:24.600 Oh, no, I know that.
00:05:25.700 Most young people are kind of like me, like more independent.
00:05:30.380 It's independent.
00:05:31.060 I know you're not suggesting that.
00:05:32.960 I'm just saying that, like, it goes across both party lines,
00:05:36.120 like where they like, you know, we can blame each other.
00:05:37.780 Well, it was the last administration, but it's like.
00:05:40.100 Yeah.
00:05:41.340 The last administration was obviously incompetent, but it's like,
00:05:44.380 is it incompetent or, like, again,
00:05:46.020 is it allowed to be incompetent for some other reason?
00:05:48.640 Like, why?
00:05:49.220 Like, it's really hard.
00:05:51.580 Younger people, just in general, are a lot less trusting in the government,
00:05:56.300 and that's any time.
00:05:58.600 But now, especially now, with all the other avenues of information you can get
00:06:04.400 or disinformation you can get,
00:06:06.960 the youth of this country are very distrusting in the government.
00:06:11.680 So you'd be hard-pressed to convince them and get them on your side,
00:06:16.060 Like, yeah, we need to get in there and kick Iran's ass.
00:06:19.300 When I was a kid, that was great.
00:06:21.720 I was in high school going, yeah, let's kick Iran's ass, because it was just cool.
00:06:28.600 It was something that you wanted.
00:06:30.700 You know, yeah, we're America.
00:06:32.140 Let's go kick some ass.
00:06:33.840 And now the youth is like, what's wrong with you?
00:06:38.140 Let's pretty much stay out of this.
00:06:40.220 I just spent $97 on eggs and bacon.
00:06:43.980 You know what I mean?
00:06:44.220 It's like not actually, but like it's.
00:06:45.860 Was there a lot of exhibition?
00:06:47.200 Where it's like, do I really want to go spend more money?
00:06:49.660 Yeah.
00:06:49.940 Do I really want to go spend more money to kill somebody I've never met?
00:06:52.580 And I'm not saying that Iran's cool.
00:06:54.280 Houthis are cool.
00:06:55.120 Hamas is cool.
00:06:56.460 I'm not out here in the streets going to free Palestine.
00:06:58.600 I'm not one of those guys.
00:06:59.500 But I think there's a lot of other people who are just tired.
00:07:01.840 We're like tired and we.
00:07:04.140 When do we get a break?
00:07:05.940 When do we get a break?
00:07:07.520 World police, man, with a world damn police.
00:07:11.280 Thanks, Matthew.
00:07:12.420 Appreciate the call.
00:07:13.220 When you travel well, your KLM Royal Dutch Airlines ticket takes you to more than just your destination.
00:07:19.840 It takes you to winding streets, spontaneous detours, and the realisation that neither of you is actually good with directions.
00:07:28.980 And when the final shortcut taken isn't exactly short,
00:07:33.760 our crew is here to give you a trip home that goes just as planned.
