00:00:00.000 Today on The Matt Wall Show, chaos and uncertainty around the election.
00:00:03.300 This is the inevitable result of a confused and haphazard voting system combined with a total
00:00:08.700 lack of trust in the media and our institutions. The media now scolds Americans who question the
00:00:13.840 election results, but it's their own fault for giving us so many reasons to doubt everything
00:00:18.120 they tell us. Also, five headlines, including moves all across the country to legalize drugs.
00:00:23.220 Is it time for the GOP to make marijuana legalization part of its platform? And in
00:00:27.740 our daily cancellation, I will cancel National Geographic for speculating that prehistoric
00:00:33.420 people 9,000 years ago may have been proponents of left-wing gender theory. All of that and much
00:00:39.440 more coming up. But let's begin here with something very simple. Here's my radical position, okay?
00:00:44.600 All of the legal and valid votes should be counted. And we should make sure that they're counted
00:00:50.720 correctly. That's it. That's my whole position. It should be uncontroversial, bipartisan.
00:00:56.520 But apparently it's not. Apparently, it's an extreme right-wing talking point to advocate for
00:01:02.740 careful and correct tabulation of the results. Somehow, in fact, it undermines the legitimacy
00:01:07.900 of our election. It undermines the legitimacy of our election to make sure that the election is
00:01:12.920 legitimate. This is what we're being told. And we're being told this, again, by the same people
00:01:17.060 who for years called Trump an illegitimate president with no evidence or reason for that claim.
00:01:23.020 So here's the reality. Even without any indication of malfeasance, even if there were no hints of
00:01:31.400 possible subterfuge, I would still be saying that there should be recounts and audits for three rather
00:01:37.460 important reasons. Number one, it's an extremely close election with the results in some states
00:01:42.060 coming down to less than one percentage point separation between the candidates, which puts it
00:01:46.680 in the range where recounts can be done already. If only a comparatively few votes determine the outcome
00:01:51.780 of a hotly contested election, there is reason to go back and make sure everything was done right.
00:01:57.240 Very simple. Number two, we have never seen so many ballots mailed in and sent early. This is an
00:02:03.400 entirely new world we're in now. Elections have never been done like this. They shouldn't be done
00:02:08.400 like this now. It's obviously led to confusion already. There have been problems at a minimum.
00:02:14.100 And that's just from what we know. Massive delays, ballots seeming to appear out of nowhere.
00:02:18.400 Just this morning, it was announced that Georgia has 50,000 to 60,000 uncounted ballots,
00:02:23.180 which was, quote, more than initially thought. We need to understand what's happening here.
00:02:29.920 It would be insane to just take the results as they're first reported when the states have to
00:02:35.760 keep backtracking and they don't seem to know what they're doing as they do it. Number three,
00:02:40.720 as discussed yesterday, there is a widespread belief that Donald Trump is a real-life fascist dictator
00:02:46.840 who has effectively murdered hundreds of thousands of Americans and wants to murder
00:02:50.880 thousands more. This is false, obviously ridiculous, but it's what people believe. It's
00:02:56.480 what they've been told, which creates an enormous, perhaps overwhelming incentive to cheat.
00:03:01.960 And it's another reason to go back and check again. These are the reasons, again, for better
00:03:07.460 oversight and double-checking that would stand even if you didn't have indications of possible fraud
00:03:12.540 happening. But we do have those indications on top of everything else. For example, they taped up
00:03:17.400 the windows in Michigan where people were counting ballots, taped up the windows so that nobody could
00:03:21.400 look in and see. What's the reason for that? Is there a good reason? Is there an honest reason?
00:03:29.520 In North Carolina, they're now saying that they're not going to update their total vote count until next
00:03:33.920 week, November 12th. In Pennsylvania, they're allowing ballots to be counted even if they don't arrive
00:03:40.440 until three days after the election. And even if they're not clearly postmarked for before the
00:03:44.920 deadline, they will count ballots that could have been mailed after the election. They will. That's
00:03:51.960 true. There is reason to be suspicious about some of this stuff, especially that last point about
00:03:56.920 Pennsylvania. And especially because Pennsylvania officials are in the can for Biden and they're not
00:04:01.760 hiding it. The Pennsylvania attorney general announced a day before the election that Biden would
00:04:07.000 win. The secretary of state in Pennsylvania, who's in charge of the vote count, said on Twitter a
00:04:12.540 couple of years ago that, quote, using the title president before the word Trump really demeans the
00:04:17.880 office of the presidency. This is an extremely partisan person who hates Trump so much that to
00:04:24.520 simply call him president demeans the office in her mind. Is there at least reason to suspect that
00:04:29.680 maybe those late ballots are being allowed and the rules are being loosened and changed at the last
00:04:34.440 minute because these people who hate Trump hate Trump and want him gone? Is there a reason to
00:04:40.340 maybe possibly consider that? Yes, there is, to put it very mildly. Listen, this is what it comes down
00:04:47.400 to. We are, as Americans, in a position where we are being asked and told to trust what we're told,
00:04:55.260 right? But trust what and who? Well, trust information disseminated by hyper-partisan officials
00:05:01.360 through the mouthpiece of a hyper-partisan media. And we're told that it's our fault if we don't
00:05:07.840 trust them. We're conspiracy theorists, that we somehow are the ones undermining the integrity and
00:05:13.840 legitimacy of our system. No, it isn't us, you damned liars, you snakes. It is not us. It's you.
00:05:21.520 These people, by these people I referred to the whole Democrat media complex, the ones who
00:05:26.060 we're being asked to trust right now, these people have spent years openly lying. And this goes way
00:05:32.200 back before Trump, but has been significantly worse, more obvious, more pronounced, more relentless
00:05:36.740 under Trump. They said Trump was a Russian spy. They ran with every ridiculous, unverified claim
00:05:42.200 they could. They tried to take down Kavanaugh by calling him a serial gang rapist. They say even now
00:05:47.380 that Amy Coney Barrett is an illegitimate Supreme Court justice. Nancy Pelosi said that a few days ago.
00:05:51.860 No basis for that. No justification. It's a straight out lie. Insidious, reprehensible,
00:05:57.440 immoral, told for the sake of gaining power. Like all the other lies they tell. And this is just in
00:06:03.920 the political realm. The Democrat media complex has also encouraged and defended and justified
00:06:08.820 rioting in the streets, pouring fuel on the fire, literally, continuously, by blowing every out-of-context
00:06:14.560 police shooting wildly out of proportion, telling us that there's a conspiracy of racist cops out
00:06:19.820 hunting and killing black men. They do this. They know it's not true. They know the damage
00:06:25.180 it causes. They know that it's getting people killed, but they do it anyway because it's about
00:06:29.160 power. Ends justify the means. And now they have the audacity to demand trust and the audacity to act
00:06:38.000 offended and hurt if we suggest that maybe these people would cheat. Maybe these people who have been
00:06:45.480 cheating already would continue cheating on election day. No. Go to hell. Don't give me that. You did
00:06:53.280 this. You deserve it. This is your fault. We don't trust you. We never will. We need evidence. We need
00:06:59.360 receipts. Your word is nothing. Your word is trash. You have trashed it. You have made this country what
00:07:07.480 it is now. You have planted these seeds. And now you will reap them. And that's just how it's going to be.
00:07:16.300 Blame yourself. It's all your fault. Let's get to our five headlines.
00:07:27.620 Well, you know, with all the craziness happening in the world right now, maybe it makes you start
00:07:31.480 thinking about, you know, you have to be prepared for anything that might happen. It's all. I think
00:07:36.640 we should be thinking in terms of getting prepared. And one thing that you should do to be prepared is
00:07:42.220 to have life insurance. And the problem is that, you know, shopping for life insurance can seem like
00:07:46.560 a daunting task. It seems like the kind of thing, you know, you don't know where to start, where to go.

00:08:59.500 stung by their party's dispiriting showing at the polls on Tuesday, two moderate house Democrats say
00:09:06.100 they and other centrists are privately discussing a plan that was unthinkable just 24 hours earlier,
00:09:12.260 throwing their support behind a challenger to speaker, Nancy Pelosi. The two Democrats told
00:09:16.100 the hill on Wednesday that they were reaching out to their colleagues about backing one of Pelosi's
00:09:20.100 top lieutenants, house democratic caucus chairman, Hakeem Jeffries for speaker in the house Congress.
00:09:25.340 He's the only one prepared and positioned to be speaker. So one of the democratic lawmakers,
00:09:29.140 he bridges moderates and progressives better than anybody. And most importantly, he's not Pelosi.
00:09:34.360 Although apparently Jeffrey shot down the idea and said he's focused on, you know,
00:09:38.380 on keeping his current spot. Of course, he has to say that here's, and I've been reading more about
00:09:44.100 this and you were seeing this more and more that while Democrats need to moderate a little bit,
00:09:49.600 they need to start elevating the centrists and moderates in their party. The problem
00:09:55.140 is that, and this is a, this is a pretty big logistical problem. There are no centrists and
00:10:01.360 moderates in the Democrat party to elevate. I mean, we, we might be down to like in the entire
00:10:08.440 Democrat party across the entire country, there might be literally a hand. Well, not literally a
00:10:12.400 handful. There might be, you know, two or three or four or five. I mean, it's, it's, there are very,
00:10:17.780 very few of them because this is what the Democrat party has become is even the so-called anytime you
00:10:25.800 hear that someone is a moderate Democrat, well, ask them, do they believe in any restrictions for
00:10:33.560 abortions whatsoever? Do they believe in that? It's okay to kill infants up until the moment of birth
00:10:39.220 because you'll find even the moderate ones hold that view, which is an extreme view.
00:10:44.080 Do they believe in pregnant men? Do they think that men can get pregnant?
00:10:48.800 Even the moderate ones hold that view. These are radical extreme viewpoints that even the so-called
00:10:55.760 moderate Democrats subscribe to. And that's going to be a problem for the Democrat party. If they want
00:11:00.580 to moderate, they're always moderating in relation to how far left they've gone. So what is centrist and
00:11:09.600 moderate in a moderate in a modern Democrat party would have been wildly extreme left wing 25, 30 years
00:11:16.060 ago? Um, number two, election protests all across the country. And here's how it went in New York.
00:11:23.760 As you can see there, she spits in the officer's face, uh, is arrested. It's quite satisfying at least
00:11:51.860 to see her taken down and arrested. Hopefully that disgusting trashy woman will be locked in a cage
00:11:57.640 for a long time. You know, spitting on a police officer, already a crime doing it during a pandemic
00:12:02.160 should be even more of a crime. Uh, you know, charger is a biological terrorist thrower in Gitmo.
00:12:08.580 I'd be fine with that. This is what we talked about yesterday, feminism and the effect it has on
00:12:13.880 women. Well, you know, when you see videos like this, here you go, crass, vulgar, gross, uh, the
00:12:22.460 obliteration of anything that is truly feminine. That's, that's what you get from feminism. Number
00:12:28.320 three, uh, hilarious stuff here. The daily wire reports that Bloomberg spent a hundred million dollars
00:12:33.640 in Florida, well, Florida, Ohio, and Texas spent a hundred million dollars total in all those states
00:12:38.960 for Joe Biden. And all of those states went to Trump handily comfortably. Um, this, after the
00:12:45.600 guy blew through like a billion dollars on his own campaign, a campaign that lasted about 17 seconds
00:12:52.240 or so, that's how much he's wasted. It really is amazing. Have we ever seen anything? Have we ever
00:12:59.520 seen money wasted like this so quickly with nothing to show for it? Well, I guess we see it all the time
00:13:06.560 with our government. They blow through trillions with nothing to show for it, but on a private level,
00:13:10.400 on a private scale, have we seen it? I don't know. Uh, just a billion, 1.1 billion up in flames, even
00:13:16.640 worse than up in flames. It would have been better for him to literally burn it because then at least
00:13:20.620 he'd have the ashes that he could compost and use it to grow tomatoes and cucumbers. He'd get a nice salad
00:13:27.600 out of the deal, kind of an expensive salad. But, um, for that, he doesn't even have a salad for this.
00:13:32.340 Nothing at all. This was all for nothing, but I think that's great and, uh, quite hilarious. I mean,
00:13:38.100 it's, he's the kind of guy that you enjoy seeing humiliated. Might not be the most charitable thing
00:13:42.580 to say, but that's where I'm at right now. Um, and, uh, in other election news with a lot of
00:13:48.060 uncertainty about which candidates Americans chose, it does seem certain that Americans chose something
00:13:54.180 else, uh, drugs. We don't know which candidate they prefer, but, um, it does seem like Americans are
00:14:00.520 big fans of drugs. Here's a, here's the Vox article. It says in every state where a ballot
00:14:05.080 measure asked Americans to reconsider the drug war voters cited with reformers in Arizona,
00:14:11.540 Montana, New Jersey, and South Dakota voters legalized marijuana for recreational purposes
00:14:15.240 in Mississippi and South Dakota, separate from the full legalization measure, uh, voters legalized
00:14:20.160 medical marijuana in Oregon voters decriminalized, but not legalized all drugs is a decriminalization
00:14:28.940 of all drugs, including cocaine and heroin. Actually, the only thing that surprises me there
00:14:32.640 is that that hadn't already happened. You mean that up until now, heroin and cocaine was,
00:14:39.820 was technically criminalized in Oregon. You never know it when you look at the footage out of Portland,
00:14:45.200 also in Oregon voters, uh, legalized the use of, um, a psychedelic drug found in magic mushrooms
00:14:50.560 for supervised therapeutic uses in Washington, DC voters in effect, decriminalized psychedelic plants
00:14:56.920 following the lead of several other cities. Um, and with its vote, Oregon became the first state
00:15:02.120 in the U S in modern times to decriminalize all drugs. And marijuana is now legalized in 15 states
00:15:08.400 and DC, although DC still, uh, allows, doesn't allow sale of marijuana. So it's legal, but you can't
00:15:14.960 sell it. That makes a lot of sense. So this is, um, with, with everything else happening, I think this
00:15:20.980 isn't getting a whole lot of attention, but this is a pretty significant shift. Um, I mean, you want
00:15:27.160 to talk about the way things have shifted. You go back 20 or 25 years, uh, you know, marijuana was
00:15:33.640 illegal, I think everywhere. And, uh, but, but also I think if you look at the opinion polls,
00:15:39.180 almost everyone would be against all forms of, of drug legalization. And now it's a totally mainstream
00:15:44.500 view. And the thing is, you know, I don't feel, I've never felt especially strong about this.
00:15:50.260 A couple of lines I will draw, I think pretty easily. Uh, I, I think to legalize or decriminalize
00:15:55.920 hard drugs like heroin, it's crazy. Um, I also, but I also think on the other end of it,
00:16:02.180 legalizing medicinal marijuana, obviously, I mean the whole idea that the situation that's been in many
00:16:08.540 states for so long where, you know, you weren't allowed to use medicinal marijuana. If you had,
00:16:14.500 chronic pain or terminal cancer, uh, something like that, you couldn't use medicinal marijuana.
00:16:19.300 You could use medicinal heroin and you, you, you, you could go get Oxycontin or something
00:16:23.800 extremely addictive. Lots of people get addicted to it. Lots of people overdose on it. So that's okay,
00:16:30.820 but not medicinal marijuana, which is much less addictive, much safer. Some would say more
00:16:36.360 effective. Uh, that never made any sense. So it seems to me two obvious things, two obvious lines
00:16:41.040 you could draw would seem to me. Uh, no heroin, heroin should not be legal, should be criminalized.
00:16:47.320 Uh, medicinal marijuana should be legalized. And then in the middle, you know, where do you go
00:16:51.900 there? And I've kind of, I've kind of gone back and forth on it, but I think, um, I really, and I,
00:17:00.460 and I would admit this that I, I still can't fully bring myself on board with the idea of legalizing
00:17:07.860 marijuana, but it's more just on a visceral level. I don't have a great argument against it because
00:17:13.460 any, any argument, and I would, I, I, I admit this, any argument I would make against legalizing
00:17:20.740 marijuana would apply, you know, the social harm and all that sort of thing would apply just as well
00:17:30.040 to alcohol, if not more so. And yet I certainly am not in favor of alcohol prohibition.
00:17:36.480 And I think that's the effective argument that pro marijuana legalization people have always made,
00:17:41.920 which is, look, if you're making these arguments against marijuana, then why isn't everything
00:17:46.280 prohibited? It doesn't make, you're drawing a very arbitrary line here. And it seems like you're just
00:17:49.500 doing it on a visceral level because it's something that you smoke and, uh, you know, and you just don't
00:17:54.220 like it. And so you're okay. You don't want that, but you're okay with, uh, with people going and
00:17:59.000 buying hard liquor at the liquor store. And I think that's basically true. So I kind of,
00:18:03.960 even though I can't, I can't quite emotionally bring myself there. Um, I think that the, uh,
00:18:08.800 pro legalization people have intellectually, they have the, uh, they have the intellectual arguments
00:18:17.000 on their side, I would say, even though they're a bunch of potheads. Uh, so this is probably
00:18:23.100 something that the, you know, the Republican party should think about getting behind. I mean, it's a,
00:18:27.160 it's a, it's probably the right view and it's popular view.
00:18:35.880 And, uh, it's all about being popular, I suppose. All right, let's go to our daily cancellation
00:18:40.400 today for our daily cancellation. If I may dare to talk about something other than the election
00:18:45.920 for a few minutes, I'm afraid I have to cancel national geographic. Really? I can cancel national
00:18:51.680 geographic just for their decision several years ago to change the name of their TV channel to
00:18:56.740 Nat Geo. Yes. They have to go by Nat Geo because apparently it's too difficult and confusing for
00:19:01.880 people to people to say national geographic. No words above two syllables are allowed anymore in
00:19:07.060 society. You especially can't combine two words of three syllables or, or more that that scares
00:19:12.840 people. You can't do that. And this has been the trajectory of human language for a long time.
00:19:17.140 Words become shorter and simpler, eventually getting replaced with indecipherable grunting.
00:19:21.720 So in 10 years, Nat Geo will be called Nat and it's top rated show will be a documentary series
00:19:29.420 about how different types of monkeys sound when they fart, which come to think of it, I would
00:19:34.280 actually watch. But in any case, the reason we're canceling national geographic today is for an article
00:19:39.800 just published on its website, written by Maya Waihas with the title prehistoric female hunter discovery
00:19:46.040 upends gender role assumptions. Now you already know it's going to be bad, but trust me, it's way,
00:19:53.780 way worse than you think. So let's read a little bit here before we really get to the stupidity
00:19:59.140 fireworks at the end. But it says, Randall Haas, an archeologist at University of California, Davis,
00:20:05.520 recalls the moment in 2018 when his team of researchers gathered around the excavated burial of an
00:20:09.800 individual laying to rest in the Andes mountain of Peru, some 9,000 years ago, along with the bones of
00:20:15.060 what appeared to be a human adult was an impressive and extensive kit of stone tools. An ancient hunter
00:20:20.420 would need to take down big game from engaging the hunt to preparing the hide. It's said, this quoting
00:20:26.680 now from Haas says, he must have been a really great hunter, a really important person in society. Haas
00:20:31.180 says that's what he and his team were thinking at the time. But further analysis reveals a surprise.
00:20:36.300 The remains found alongside the toolkit were from a biological female. When archeologists excavated the
00:20:41.680 burial, they found a colorful array of 24 stone tools, among them projectile points for taking
00:20:48.280 down a large mammal, hefty rocks likely for cracking bones or stripping hides, small rounded
00:20:53.860 stony bits for scraping fat from pelts, tiny flakes with extra sharp edges that could have chopped the
00:20:59.760 meat, and nodules of red that could help preserve the hide. Scattered around the site were fragments of
00:21:06.800 bones of animals, including ancient llama relatives and deer. Back in the lab, close inspection of the
00:21:12.860 bones suggested the physiology of a biological woman. To confirm, they analyzed the protein that forms tooth
00:21:18.400 enamel and is linked to sex. Okay. Now, we haven't gotten to the cancelable part here, but maybe you
00:21:27.160 can guess what's coming there. Though I will say, you know, I'm not an archeologist. It seems to me that
00:21:32.460 mostly what they found are tools to prepare the meat. Often the person preparing the meat is not
00:21:38.000 the person who killed it. It doesn't necessarily mean this is a hunter. Also, just because someone
00:21:41.680 was buried with a toolkit, that doesn't mean they used the toolkit. You know, it could be some kind
00:21:46.620 of symbolic thing, part of a religious ritual, which the article does acknowledge later on.
00:21:51.480 And also, you know, these are rocks we're talking about. I mean, they could have been used for
00:21:55.040 anything, but whatever, fine. Let's say that this was a, this was a badass independent woman of the
00:22:00.280 year 7,000 BC who didn't need no man. I'm okay with that. No problem. But then here comes the
00:22:06.240 idiocy avalanche. Okay. The article says, quote, importantly, the team cannot know the individual's
00:22:13.120 gender identity, but rather only biological sex, which like gender doesn't always exist on a binary.
00:22:18.960 In other words, they can't say whether the individual lived their life 9,000 years ago in a
00:22:23.000 way that would identify them within their society as a woman. This is not parody folks. Yes. National
00:22:29.160 Geographic is really suggesting that the prehistoric woman may have been non-binary.
00:22:35.300 And yeah, I guess we don't know. Maybe she was a genderqueer, non-binary bisexual. Maybe she had
00:22:41.400 short cropped hair, spent her Friday nights performing feminist slam poetry at her local
00:22:45.880 coffee shop. Maybe she would go around to the other huts and explain to the other prehistoric people
00:22:50.460 in her clan that, you know, they need to break free from their heteronormative thinking and examine
00:22:55.380 their cis privilege. Maybe she played the keyboard in an experimental indie rock band called the
00:23:01.080 anachronisms. I mean, I can't disprove any of that. It's all technically possible, but it's also all a
00:23:07.780 bunch of arbitrary, insane, nonsensical speculation. As we have talked about on the show, the whole idea
00:23:16.560 of gender identity as distinct from biological sex was invented in the 1950s by an insane creep named
00:23:23.240 John Money. So I feel fairly confident in assuming that a concept invented out of whole cloth 70 years
00:23:29.580 ago did not exist 9,000 years ago. In fact, history shows that for the entirety of human civilization
00:23:36.020 until very recently, everyone thought that men were men, women were women, and all societies
00:23:41.960 everywhere had ideas about the roles that men and women should play in society. Those ideas weren't
00:23:47.560 always the same, but there was always a recognition of the difference and an acknowledgement that the
00:23:53.860 difference matters. We in modern times are the only ones so dumb as to be confused about this.
00:24:01.840 Prehistoric people weren't advanced enough to be as stupid as us. And I can imagine prehistoric
00:24:08.400 people looking on from the great beyond, hearing about this National Geographic article and saying,
00:24:13.480 whoa, hey man, don't drag us into this. We know what men and women are. Okay, so speak for yourselves
00:24:18.680 here. All right. Also notice how National Geographic, an alleged scientific publication, says that sex,
00:24:24.620 not just gender, sex is not on a binary. And to support this wild claim, it gives us a link to a
00:24:31.900 World Health Organization article. And that article says, quote, humans are born with 46 chromosomes
00:24:37.100 in 23 pairs. The X and Y chromosomes determine a person's sex. Most women are 46 XX and most men are
00:24:44.020 46 XY. Research suggests, however, that in a few births per thousand, some individuals will be born
00:24:49.260 with a single sex chromosome, 45X or 45Y, and some with three or more sex chromosomes. In addition,
00:24:56.060 some males are born 46 XX due to the translocation of a tiny section of the sex-determining region of the
00:25:02.520 Y chromosome. Similarly, some females are also born 46 XY due to the mutations in the Y chromosome.
00:25:09.760 Clearly, there are not only females who are XX and males who are XY, but rather, there is a range of chromosomes.
00:25:16.180 Or rather, chromosome complements, hormone balances, and phonetic variations that determine sex. Okay.
00:25:23.180 That's what the World Health Organization said. A couple of things there. First, even if I were to accept
00:25:29.600 that these few per thousand cases represent a breakdown of the sex binary, and that the people who fall into
00:25:35.680 this tiny fraction of the population are neither men nor women, or are some combination of the two,
00:25:40.480 that still wouldn't at all justify or legitimize the leftist claims about gender. Because they say that
00:25:46.940 biological men, fully biological men, XY chromosomes, no abnormalities, can be women. That's their claim.
00:25:53.220 That claim is not proven or at all advanced by the existence of these abnormalities. But second,
00:26:00.800 note how this is phrased. It says some males are born 46 XX due to the translocation of a tiny section
00:26:06.800 of the chromosome. Similarly, some females are also born 46 XY. So that's the phrasing. So they're
00:26:15.260 calling them males and females. That's what who is saying. They're still males or females,
00:26:23.480 according to the World Health Organization. What we're talking about are males and females who suffer
00:26:27.880 from rare mutations. But these are still males or females. A male with a mutation is a male with a
00:26:35.140 mutation. It's like a person born with one arm is not a whole new species or type of human. It's just
00:26:40.980 someone who should have had two arms but doesn't. Nothing confusing or particularly strange is
00:26:46.260 happening here, even if it is rare. So this from National Geographic, excuse me, Nat Geo,
00:26:52.560 is scientifically false, absurd, laughable, embarrassing. And it makes me think they really
00:26:59.900 should just stick with farting monkeys. Science just isn't their bag anymore. And that's why they are
00:27:08.440 canceled. Good to get that in. Little non-election cancellation. Still, I still make time. You
00:27:16.700 know, you got to make time for the cancellations, even when there's so much else going on in the
00:27:20.620 world. So I'm glad we could do that. That's going to do it for us today. Thanks for watching,
