What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's all quiet in the underground bunker. Doors closed, locks bolted. But the Great One isn't just resting on his laurels. He's making sure your weekend is even better by giving you his best. This is the best of Mark Lavend.
I'm gonna jump in with both feet here on AI. Data centers. Still echo in my ears, Mr. Producer. Um Ladies and gentlemen, let me ask you a question. How did we ever industrialize this country? Railroad tracks. oil wells, pipelines We talked about the steel bridges, skyscrapers, lots of noise. Lots of fumes. Lots of lots of I mean I I I just wonder What are we raising here? And it's not just younger people now.
Why are AI data centers being called the new boogeyman?
It's people who are Middle aged. Or even older. Just whining about stuff and I and I even see some conservatives online. I won't call them out and humiliate them unless I have to. Okay. It's gonna be a rough night, folks. I'm just telling you right now. Okay. Here's the point. I look at this war in Iran and people complaining about the gallon of a price of gasoline. I look at AI data centers, which are the future, which will determine whether we are a superpower or not, in every respect. Technologically, terms of medicines and Other kinds of cutting edge developments. As well as militarily? And there's polls, seventy one percent of the people are against it. But seventy one percent of the people are against what?
Most people don't know what these data centers are. What happens in them? They think they're gonna be put right in their backyard. You know, we still have local zoning boards. They're still gonna make determinations on where to put these things. The federal government's not gonna be in charge of that. So whatever normally goes on with a zoning board in terms of uh commercial versus residential It just trial versus other stuff? will still take place. People will still show up, make their case for and against. But what are we talking about here? I remember I had to defend fracking seven, eight, nine, ten years ago. All the lies about what was taking place With water and air, just lies. And we're hearing a lot of lies now.
But then we have Cowards. I want you to really watch. Which so called conservatives go in which direction? You know, we em attack people who are socialists, we attack people who believe in centralized government, we attack people who don't believe in private property rights, and then this happens all of a sudden. Data centers Or the big bad boogeyman. Let me tell you something, this is the same kind of hysteria we saw during the pandemic. And people are more than willing to throw their principles to the wind, their belief systems to the wind. More than willing. But don't. The time your principles count, the time your values count, the time your principles count At times like now. This is also why we don't have a direct and pure democracy or a mobocracy.
Seventy one percent of the people's Well, who cares? These are people. Who have private property? They're gonna go through the process with the zoning boards and then the boards of commissioners or however it's set up in your state. And it'll be thumbs up or thumbs down. I mean it's not like somebody's building an oil well in your backyard. Now the states who embrace this are the states of the future. And many of those states Many of those states are states that have not. been the centers of industry and productivity and development in the past. Or they have been, but not to the extent of some other states and cities. You have the governor of West Virginia. Kai's brilliant. He said, Come to our state. He's inviting the AI data center
companies to come to West Virginia. And that's not the only state. But to see these big industrial states like New York And Pennsylvania. For God's sakes, they have coal mines and they have oil wells. And California. To say no? To just ban them? These are political hacks. And if they're conservatives, the truth is whatever they've said over twenty years, whatever they've said over ten years, whatever they've written, whatever they've said on the floor of the House or the Senate They're full of crap.
