must be stopped.
Adam curry, John C. Dvorak. Sunday, April 1 2018. This is
your award winning give on nation media assassination
episode 1021.
This is no agenda,
celebrating bloody eggs and finally a fool's and
broadcasting live from the capital of Georgia Star state
here in downtown Austin. Hey, how's it going, everybody? I'm
Adam curry
into northern Silicon Valley. I'm here to wish you all a Happy
Easter. I'm John C. Dvorak.
keel. Yes. And thank you for that fine explanation of parts
of easter
eggs. In the newsletter, of course, yes, yes. I
didn't realize that the egg thing came from the will the
rebirth of life. Yes. But the painting of the egg was to
signify blood on the egg. A blood of Christ, a blood of
Christ. Yes, not just any blood, the blood of Christ. But you
couldn't expand on the hunt or the role.
I don't know the origin of the Easter role. And the egg hunt is
just some methodology to harass children. I think that
Oh, isn't it? Like you're you're looking for the for the body of
Christ who's behind the stones?
That's a funny interpretation could be.
Isn't that where he was? He was stored on behind the stones.
He was storing? Yes. Kind of in a cave.
With a bunch of big rocks in front of it. That's what I am.
Right. Yeah. Big rocks, big rocks. Alright. Well, happy
Easter Jemison
suspected something they wouldn't have put the rocks
in that guy's no good. To try and get out. Put some rocks in.
Yes. Well, Happy Easter. Yeah. Well, my mom, I was talking with
my sisters about this. And I don't know if anyone's still
does this on Easter. And we certainly were not church going
people except for this stupid. Unitarian stuff.
Unitarian? Yeah. Who's a Unitarian my
parents. Really? Yeah. But for a while? No,
I taught Unitarians to be quite quite interesting. For one
thing, they don't believe in the Trinity. That's why they're
called Unitarians. And now
the Father the Son, the Holy Ghost Trinity.
Yes, that Trinity. And, and they're also the most they're
always the radical utmost activist of the Christian style
churches.
Yeah, well, I'll tell you the story one more time of why what
turned me off so much about the unitary Gen church. This when we
moved to the
Netherlands, those are 10 Unitarian donors that go on I
went up.
I'm just telling you what turned me off. When we moved to the
Netherlands. My parents then sought out fellow expats, and
they formed their own little Unitarian Church and we met
Sundays at people's homes, so we'd be dragged along. Oh, we
gotta go find the DeMont Kaiser's Okay, fine. All right.
And the kids are kind of weird, dad, but you'll have a good
time. No. Okay. And then one time, we had to get up at the
crack of dawn why no actually at 3am to go drive a few hours to
go up on a hill because there's no mountains in the Netherlands.
And we all sat there and watched the sunrise and on a little
portable cassette player. They played Cat Stevens morning has
broken and that's your Muslim and he was still Cat Stevens
before? Maybe a Muslim? I don't know. Maybe it was a secret
Muslim indoctrination. I don't know. But anyway, yeah, I forgot
what I was gonna say. Oh, yes. Well, my mom would do for
Easter. There we go. She would make sugar eggs. Maybe we're
seeing these and she had molds and they'd be probably as big as
like a nerf football and it'd be hollow inside. She decorated
big. Yeah. She decorated with you know cake frosting and the
via an opening and the egg and that would be the little thing
inside there. Sometimes a little scene of stuff. Little little
Jesus.
Spray elaborate. Yeah. Yeah. Must have been bored stiff.
I want yeah, I guess they were not for eating. They were for
staying away from
that of course decoration.
Which falls a break and be bad.
Okay, one drop of water collapse that thing? Yeah,
yeah. So I don't know. Is that is that a practice that is still
done? I never heard I've never even heard of it. Okay. Maybe
someone will. I'm sure one of our producers will say Oh, yes,
I recall this. Oh, we have a lot of Dutch. So it's not Dutch
John, my mom's America
and maybe
it's What are you talking about? No.
Dutch and aren't the Dutch Oh, Lutherans.
Protestant. Lutheran. I don't know.
Protestants agenda as a general term.
I don't know. I don't know if they're all Lutheran. I really
don't have no idea. Okay.
All right. That's a religious moment. Show this every year on
Easter. That's
right. Easter is solved once again. Well John John, thanks
for everything. Excellent work. The rest of the newsletter was
funny.
So good stuff in there. Yeah, it's people
should subscribe to that any no agenda page where there's no
agenda show.com or any show notes.com or any of the
individual archive pages, there's always a link to sign up
to the newsletter. It is very entertaining, and it reminds you
to listen to the
show. So it also reminds you that Crazy things I do on the
newsletter, I tend to accumulate the weekly weird pics. Yeah, and
memes have found on the internet and I put them in the newsletter
that was that I cluding. The
guy who says deport Californians from Austin. I had nothing to do
with it. I had nothing to do with that. But yeah, sure.
It was sent in by no agenda guy. And I think in Austin, and I
think it was staged.
Possibly. It was good, though. I like that one. Well, since we're
talking about that, this is actually a holdover from
Thursday's show. We have talked about it but the actual clip was
eluding me until I got the California Exodus. And we can
see that the exodus is real and large by the number of one way
rentals for U haul.
Oh yes, that's true. That'd be one way of telling if you think
one way rentals from U haul. Not just to Austin but to anywhere
is way up in California.
There's a number of places in this clip
if you think living in the Bay Area is expensive. Try leaving
it everywhere you look there are signs people are fleeing the
region sky high housing prices, for instance, u haul. U haul
trucks are leaving in droves taking one way trips out and not
coming back. A quick glance at pricing shows where the outflow
is going. We check reservations for next weekend beginning and
ending in San Jose for U hauls biggest truck 26 footer and
found a huge difference in price. A truck from Sacramento
to San Jose is $110. But go the other way from San Jose to
Sacramento. And the price jumps to $370. That's 340% of the cost
going the other way. How about Austin to San Jose 1053 Going
the other way is 4320 or 400% of the cost. Oops Phoenix $132
versus 1301 980%. And finally, a truck from Las Vegas to San Jose
costs only $132. But go the other way. And it's nearly
$2,000 That's a 15 100% difference customers we talk to
you in San Jose. We're not surprised people leaving in
droves. Yeah, you blame them. Had some family leave Not
really. Skin student expensive out here. By the way. North
American Van Lines says for the first time California is among
the top five states that people are leaving with 60% of the
moves involving the state going out versus 40% of people moving
in
to
build a wall build the wall. So it looks like Vegas is where
everyone's going. Yeah, Nevada.
That's right. That's cheap.
Couple reasons. is cheap.
No cheap. no income tax.
There's no income tax. Sales taxes, low taxes, lots of
hookers. Lots of hookers, places crawling
and opportunity.
Well, the opportunities is dubious. I mean, know what you
can do in May in? Well, Rico is a hooker. Hello, you become a
hooker. That's about it. Yeah, I mean, since I, my wife's from
Reno, and I didn't know that it's interesting. Yeah. And, you
know, we know, Nevada pretty well. I know Las Vegas a lot
better than she does because I used to have to go there
constantly. You know, it's it's kind of grim. I think overall, I
mean, I would move to the places like there's there's little
place on the border like Zephyr Cove, which is pretty much
filled with rich Silicon Valley expats who don't want who's
making millions of dollars a year and they're not going to
pay the taxes, right? The state income taxes and they keep an
eye on you. And in fact, the state does keep an eye on you.
They spy on anybody who's it's almost like a cult if you're a
California, they I was working with some guy who, who was
represented was a fixer.
Fixer and kept his name fixer of what like, fix or fish body in
the back of the trunk or something like that.
I don't know how far he goes, but he's one of those guys. And
he was working with a guy who had had a windfall of, I don't
know 20 or 30 million dollars and he was living in Las Vegas.
And they were trying to because he went to go there, he just
showed up in California for a few weeks. And the state was
trying to Nick him. And they were it was really a quite a
quite an ordeal. Well, so they and I know other people, the
you'll get a call from these guys. Hey, do you know so and
so? I'm an investigator with his Franchise Tax Board. And it goes
on about some they've just started asking you a question.
Do you how often have you seen him to have you seen him? You've
seen this guy. What do you think? A month every month? Is
he in town? Stop Oh, tactics.
What's that? Oh,
yeah, I've had that from both. I've also had that from the
federal government. The federal government called me once about
a guy who was Britt and they're trying to stick him with income
tax. And they were grilling me about jump off. And you know,
when he's in this country, do you have any idea which last
time you saw him? They go on and on? They I don't know how many
people were on these lists, but they call you up and that
started grilling you about, you know, whatever, you know, I
mean, I don't You don't
have to answer those questions. You say Buzz off, you
know, it's hard to say but so you're you're an artist tell
them.
You're like sure I know all about him a narc.
It's like you don't I don't know if you have a choice. But
whatever you do, I don't know much as you know, I rarely leave
the house. So I don't know if this guy's in the state all the
time.
I don't know. I've been here. I've been here collecting stuff.
I don't know. Monday. By the way, San Diego has finally taken
some of our advice, although we didn't get us in on the deal.
Dammit, they have put up these huge tents for the homeless 324
people in each tent. What Yeah, and you should look
it's like an army barracks from World War One. It's
a it's quoted as an industrial sized tent. This is been put up
by some of the wealthy citizens of san diego who say well while
you're figuring out the problem, we're going to do something
about it. And so they've they've set up this is the first of a
couple of tents I think they put up a million and a half dollars.
Here's the thing though. Besides there being 324 people in each
tent which looks really nice on the outside the inside is
organized you know it's it has bunk beds, but you have 324
people and also 77 Zero dogs that doesn't seem like a great
situation.
70 dogs well not unless they're in the same dog pack. But it
seems unlikely. Most sure it's unlikely I don't know just 70
Dogs Well it must be huge.
Yeah, it's it has doors you know it's proper doors that swing
open it's kind of like one of those it looks like a flattened
version of one of those indoor tennis court tent structures are
similar to that Yeah. So I guess that's that's one way to solve
the problem just put them all in a nice look something that looks
nice on the outside. Yeah, fixed my work is done here. No more
problems with the home where are they pooping? I don't know where
the I don't know if they have a poop facilities. Let me see. You
have to. Yeah, I must have
so many 300 people and 70 dogs you need a big lawn for the dogs
and you need probably probably need quite a few porta potties
if I did have the line. Yes, they would. They should probably
set up porta potties Jeff some singular facility one of those
like a trough. Like they used to have.
The old bars and tons of bars still have a trough in Texas
they do for sure. Do they try to like the trough?
Nobody likes to try not really
a fun thing. A bunch of dudes peeing in a trough. Weird. It's
not fun.
All drive in theaters in California had a trough
driving theater. What about for the ladies though? Did they have
to hover the Toronto No,
I never went to the ladies bathroom. I have no idea.
Hover the trough ladies.
They had this and it was always made out of tin or some sort
of steel. Yeah, but no the bent material bent and soldered.
Yeah, or Well, yeah. But
we're seeing it now. And in Austin. We got tents everywhere.
Now Tent City starting to crop up is happening here. Thank you,
California setting him somebody
who makes 2010 to invest in some tent companies. Hello. It's just
been getting worse as the day of Hands Across America that's
triggered it
that was that was the the actual signal Want to go? Alright
everybody, let's get homeless. Yeah, it's crazy. I've Mark Hall
our producer here.
It should read you that song. Let's get social to let's get
let's get homeless.
Let's get in California Yeah, perfect. I hear Chris Wilson
awakening in Australia as we speak. And now we have to play
let's get social at the end of the show. Darn it. Well,
speaking of let's get social.
I let me start off with something that gets you going.
All right. Did you have the old drunk or not drunk jingle?
Yeah, I can find that. I'm sure. You want me to play this before?
The play that yeah, okay, here we go. I'm gonna drum.
Now play my clip.
Oh, they're cold. They're
drunk or not? Yes. Okay.
Welcome to the Late Show. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm your host
Stephen Colbert. Today, in case you haven't seen it, the
President was in Ohio. He was in Ohio. Talking about
infrastructure, check your calendars. It is always
infrastructure week and talking about construction brought back
some happy Trump memories.
He does sound a little loose, looser than usual. He says a
restructure Yeah, he's at the intersection.
But but the thing I think they're real trigger to me.
First of all, he was running out in a very awkward way almost
kills himself. Yeah. And then is just slap happy. And then he is
the way he said these first he says infrastructure and then He
says it again. mispronouncing it. infrastructure. And this is
and this so he said the second time so he's trying to correct
himself he, when he comes back again later, I didn't clip this
but he's trying to say infrastructure under his breath.
And but it's the way he says Ohio. He says it he also does it
twice. He says Ohio and then he says is an Ohio is very subtle
is you really have to listen hard to hear him go. Oh, Ohio.
It's just this very strange. Like I
wasn't in Ohio, Ohio for structure, calendars. It is
always infrastructure week and talking about construction
brought back some happy truck memories and construction.
Structures. Oh,
by the way, he's wrong, pulls himself together. But he's
wrong. Because it's a Ford truck month. There's no time for
infrastructure week during Ford truck month. So he's just wrong
on the face. Yes, the writers fault all it's always a Truck
Month. And it happens to be forged turn. I know. Because I'm
in Texas, to everybody. Yeah, yes, what we do here, we track
that stuff. But we were talking about let's getting social. And
I realized kind of over the weekend, you know, I have even
though I went all in on all of the talking tubes, the listening
devices getting everything go and I don't care. Let's see how
we do. I'm getting a little irked about a number of things.
And there's just like Tesla, where there's there's
conflagration between autonomous driving and battery cars when it
comes to the social nets. We have issues with social nets, we
have issues with pure tracking and privacy and what is being
done with your information. And it was I think it was when we
when Facebook announced that they were no longer going to
sell their data to Equifax. I think that's where I went, Oh,
okay, now it makes it we're in an episode of Black Mirror,
basically, where your information is passed through
that they have all your purchase history now they can connect
everything and they give you a FICO score based upon that. Or
it could influence your FICO score. And we know that a high
FICO score with no Trusted Traveler numbers such as Tina,
the keeper gets both of us pre check
he has it FICO or FICA.
I thought FICO isn't FICO score. I could be wrong. I thought it
was FICO score. Those FICA? No, FICA is what you that's like
that crazy tax you pay could be consulting. Now it's Fico. I
just
thought it should be Rico because those guys who should be
in jail, that
originally Fair Isaac and company was the data analytics
company based in San Jose. Is that right? That's what I'm
reading in the book knowledge. Yeah. Well, that's
interesting.
Yeah. Let's see. The Fair Isaac Corporation, data data analytics
company in San Francisco, San Jose, California focused on
credit scoring services with founded by Bill fair and Earl
Isaac in 1956, its FICO score, a measure of consumer credit risk
has become a fixture of consumer lending in the United States.
When did it become a fixture? Or as Colbert was a fixture? Or
would it become
that, you know, that's kind of a book that someone like the guy
who wrote the Creature from Jekyll Island, he should write a
book about when that became a
it's almost like I remember the days of the transition from the
record store to the CD store. Tower Records in Berkeley was
one of the big part of the giant chain that dissolved. There was
a big record store, huge record store, and CDs had come out. And
they, they were doing quite well. And everybody is very
slowly switching to him for a number of good reasons. And I
went into Tower Records one day, and the whole store had changed
completely from all records to all cds completely switched on,
or percent is just like what happened.
Right? And that that was one of the biggest problems with the
switchover was that all retail outlets had to change their
bins. That was one of the biggest issues they thought they
had problems. We are this is horrible. This new format this
digital stuff, we have to have new bins. Remember that they
were like dude, you got to
remember them changing. The
bins are the least of your problems and my friend that's
not okay, here's the according to fico.com they have a nice
little pictorial of their history. 1956 engineer Bureau
Bill fair and mathematician Earl Isaac found FICO with an initial
investment of $400 each day on the principle that data used
intelligently can improve business decisions. And then
they have 1958 FICO builds its first credit scoring system for
American investments. And they show the original conference
room, which was a couch 1961 FICO moves headquarters from San
Francisco's financial district of San Rafael, in 1972. ASAP,
the first automated application processing system debuted at
Wells Fargo. So I think that's where it started. And then blitz
us that that was 72. Then on December 29 1976, the fifth 500
document was entered through a CRT terminal. This milestone was
reached by the combined efforts of the data reduction and data
acquisition department, the Fair Isaac employees decided to sign
the milestone achievement, I have no idea what that's about.
Then at one, okay, 81 introduced the first FICO credit bureau
risk score than 82. This is interesting, they opened their
first European office in Monaco. And they went public in 87.
Well, it was in the 80s at some point where this became the big
deal you couldn't because I remember, I'm old enough to
remember getting loans and buying things and doing all
these things without dealing with FICO.
I'm sorry, I have to correct something. It's not Equifax that
received the data from face bag, but Experian. Okay, which is the
actual Experian FICO company.
That's yeah, that's what you need. That's what you need to be
on a social network, and there's just been operation. So you can
be you can be judged. Yeah, you can be judged by the number of
drunken pictures of yourself that you post Well, showing how
cool you are. So
that's part of it. That's part of it. But then, you know, so
then I think for me, when I opened up my my history, and I
looked in all of that, and I scolded myself for some of the
unsafe behavior I did partake in or taking part in such as
clicking on things that were sponsored. This is dumb. But it
reminded me, were really the, you know, we talked about
involuntary social network disorder about the problems that
these networks are creating. You know, I think actually, at some
points, it's, you know, crap. You know, maybe there's no
alternative to the face bag, because people don't actually
want it. It's a it's a me too thing. It's a social pressure.
You don't exist if you don't have a bank account. If you're a
kid, you don't exist if you don't have an Instagram. But in
20 I want to say this was 2016. Now 2014 And we discussed this
on the show, there was a little bit of like a minor brouhaha
about Facebook allowing a psychological study on about
half a million users to see if how their feed was manipulated
would actually influence their emotional expression.
Yes, we did. disgust. This is fascinating. It's good that you
brought it back.
Yeah. And I read through it again and it's in the penis. So
it's accepted as a as something that is, that is good. I don't
know if it's ever been reproduced, I
don't know good is the right word valid is valid. Thank
you. That's the word I'm looking for valid. And what it was about
was contagion, emotional contagion. And that and so I
don't have to read this thing, too. It's only a couple of
pages. But the emotional contagion, and it's me explain
that because I did some work over the weekend. There was a
story I recall also a few years back, where they thought that
the whole airplane had been poisoned, and one lady starts
puking and other passengers start puking and, and although
that no one was really poisoned, but the contagion is so real,
that people take that
used to be called mass hysteria.
Yeah, it's a form of extreme empathy, I think. And it's and
so that is something that's there are several, not that
example. But there are other examples of contagion referenced
in the study. And, you know, they did a very simple
experiment. And they use one of those. Something that professor
here in UT who did the performative he was a word
counter, and you can I say, Okay, this, this paragraph is,
you know, 70%, negative or 70% Positive. And so they ran a lot
of this stuff for it, and I only did it for a week. And they ran
the stuff through the, through their generator, and then the
way they experimented is they gave people in this study group
is 70%, positive versus 30%. Negative. And of course, they
also switched it around, and they saw an exact correlation in
the opposite direction. So if they had were in the in the same
direction, I'm sorry, so if they had more positive, emotional
post, and this is not interactions, it's not
commenting this is just in your newsfeed, then people would
start to post more positive things themselves. And
conversely, if they saw negative stuff, then they would also
start to post negative emotional entries, with a couple of
notable exceptions. Although I don't think they did enough,
didn't have enough of a sample of this. But if they had just an
extreme amount of past, person who receives that in their
newsfeed will start to feel less positive about themselves and
will start to post more negativity. So it's kind of what
you'd expect. The big eye opener for me is that when it's kind of
balanced, if it's, you know, like 50%, positive 50%,
negative, people stopped posting. And so I'm pretty sure
that if there's any manipulation, and there is, of
course, of the face bag feed, it's to make sure that it's
never too neutral. It has to have positive or negative
otherwise people stop stop interacting. I thought that was
an interesting, that's interesting, indeed. And then
another thing is, and I don't think I have the marked up copy,
but they talk about the the half a million people who were chosen
for this study. They shouldn't do that a number of ways that
they have number of criteria that had to adhere to and they
were not told about it. And they cite specifically in the study
that upon signing up to Facebook, you give express
consent to this type of activity. Therefore it was not
illegal no one's rights were no there was no issue with with
what they did. And this is course
I think when you get a subscription to Office 365 You
have you have the said they have the same thing they can do to
you. I bet whatever you do, because of these EULAs
Yes, yes. And this is what people are now somehow just
discovering, oh, wait a minute, we can do all this stuff. So I
I've been thinking about some changes I want to make then the
first one is I'm really the thing that freaked me out is
that the face back knew where I was, I know I have location
services turned off it knew where I was, I knew I was in a
whole different spot. How I knew I don't care, but I don't want
to contribute to that. And so I'm really going to trim down
when I leave the house. I really don't want to have any tracking
devices. And I I think I had
on Stop stop.
You said this is I'm hearing this is deja vu either that or I
drempt it is that you had to sit. Yeah, you had a similar
theory. And you weren't gonna bring your phone with you. I'm
just too bad if you can't get a hold of me. I told me this like
two years ago no longer
Oh, no much longer than that. About two years ago. Now about
two years ago when I when I figured out you can't date
without a smartphone is when I went back. You remember it was
important. You can't get an Uber you can and reserve a restaurant
you can't get on Tinder. Hello, don't you remember this?
Oh yeah, you can't get on Tinder that was the same time I had
lost my grinder. I can't remember.
At the same time I had lost my phone at the yellow rose, my
Nokia, my coveted Nokia. Oh, the coveted so that's when I went
back. And then I decided to go all in for the show, of course.
And now I'm starting to turn that back. I don't I already
don't interact on social networks that I'm protected
against that because of just learning and doing the show. We
know what what to do and what not to do. But here's, here's
what I've done. Because obviously, I need to be able to
get some kind of at least an email or text message or
something. If someone needs to get a hold of me and then other
things can be scripted. I just need some kind of device that I
can receive something in the past I've tried, actually give
us a PRN idea. Okay,
pager, give yourself an old pay. Well, you just think those
systems play
Hello. I just ordered a pager. And what I ordered was the T
900. from Motorola a beeper used to come up before I ordered no
listen, I ordered the the two way pager from Motorola which I
had back in the day. Which has
yet you had one. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. The doctor, were you
dentists were you on call? What was the deal?
I was running technology department for 700 people. So
yeah, I had a pager. And this is really before we had the the
flip phones, the flip phones, flip phones, start tech. So I
what I don't want is a phone, I'm not going to take anything
that has a phone, I don't want to connect to the mobile
network. Now this is a different network that they use. And I'm
sure you can, at some point, triangulate, but you can also
just keep this thing off and then turn it on, you get your
messages and turn it off again, it's going to be a hell of a lot
harder to track. And really, it's all the it's the phone with
all the apps that's the problem. And and the phone being tracked
by the cell tower, so I ordered one of those and then I found my
old iPod Touch, which still runs iOS nine point 3.5 I completely
wiped it. Set it up no connections to iCloud, no stupid
apps, all it has is it can connect to Wi Fi from
the law. Is there stuff that you're not telling me?
You know, there's a couple of things that have happened in my
life recently. And if some officials had been able to know
where I was at that specific moment, it might not have been
exactly that way.
Okay, does that mean you're running a lodge? Good? Good to
know.
I'm not really running from it. I'm just trying to avoid any
issues. I mean, there's everybody has something to hide
somewhere for some reason quit Facebook, and you'd be fine. But
I'm not see I'm not taking any of that on the I can't quit
Facebook because of the show. And it's back by the way. So
there's one computer where the face bag is used and we're
tweeters are used and and yeah, I think I think that using if I
need to get on and get email I can boot up the iPod Touch I can
connect to a Wi Fi and McDonald's or whatever. And I
can get stuff but yeah the pager the to a Motorola t nine t 900.
pager is where I'm going to be and you can SMS people think
I'm a crackpot. You haven't paid your way to meet a whole lot is
going to be hanging is going to have one those little belt.
Holster, holster holster. This holster, this is the flip up one
with a little keyboard. Remember that one?
I don't want to even see it. It's got a keyboard. That's kind
of cool. Yeah, it
has an alphanumeric keyboard. And I think it displays four or
five
stops in this get practical like we're doing alright, I think
we've heard enough of this. But let me let's get practical. Let
me ask you a couple of questions. How do I get a hold
of you now
that you can send me an email to adam@curry.com and all email
from John C. Dvorak will pick my pager.
Now if I wanted to normally like when the newsletter goes to you
for for approval, yeah. I send you a
text text message. Next, you will also you will also be able
to text the pager. It has a number you can call and leave a
voice message and you can send an SMS text to it.
Yep. Okay, good. That's all I need to know. I don't care if it
gives a shit about everything else. That's all I care about.
Because that's really it. I just want to be able to be in touch
with with people I love including us, John and
I got another question. Okay. So you're out with your pager and
your little holster and your little slide rule and whatever
else you'd carry around your belt, and you need to get an
Uber. Yes. What do you do what you do?
I can go to a Starbucks and connect my phone by iPod Touch.
I mean, and in that case, I could actually download the Uber
app if I want it to, but really, if I'm out and about I don't
need an Uber.
So if you're so you can
use right going to I'm going to use less you bring that
iPod Touch actually works. So, remember this, I remember Hold
on, I remember this era, the iPod Touch came out, it was like
kind of the alternative to the iPhone.
Now it was before the iPhone. It was the original vision.
Even when the iPhone came out, it was seen as a cheap
alternative because you didn't have to. If you remember, when
the iPhone came out, you had to get an 18 T account that cost I
think $40,000 a year. And then it was like it had documents
that were like the size of the Manhattan phone directory had to
sign off to have the iPhone. That's all the trouble. And so
people were using the I pad tight. Alright, iPod Touch as an
alternative methodology because you can do a lot of the same
thing.
Yes, correct. Correct.
So you're gonna actually go back, you're reverting?
Yes, I'm retro. Yeah, I am. I am reverting. I have to an Uber. I
don't want I don't want Uber either. I mean, Uber will send
you a receipt and it shows your exact trip, it sends you a
little map. Their business is selling data. They sell they
sell their data, that's in the EULA. We know they do because
Austin kicked him out because they said we're not gonna give
it to you for free. And then they cut some room backroom
deal. And now they're giving you traffic patterns, blah, blah,
blah,
blah, blah, get solicited by the agency or anything and they're
trying to Irish doing some work from our big dough. Anyway, they
don't pay well. So forget i
and then as one additional in case of massive emergency, I
have the Wi Fi hotspot with a burner data card, a burner SIM
card. But you are connecting to the cell. Well,
before we do that, we now know if that's one day this shows
just got me trying to hang on for dear life. A be about a 30
minute show, Max.
Well, no, you can make it well. No, the reason why No, you could
do the run through an hour if you play the recorder.
Yes. Start over the medley of my hits.
Wait for the encore?
Yeah. Yeah.
So I'm I'm really not happy with I mean, Professor Ted would be
laughing his ass off, of course. But it's when you really look at
the depth. And now of course, Google is also saying, Oh, look,
you can see all the stuff that we have on Yeah, I don't think
it will do exactly what your daughter Jay did. Like, hey,
yeah, let me look at the photos. Let me see, oh, I'm looking for
a photo I deleted maybe it's still there. No actual concern
about anything about anything, meanwhile, raised that way.
Meanwhile, you know, if you want more frequently, I was reading.
If you today if you want to buy a house, and you want to get a
mortgage. And there's your there's your FICO connection
again. Well, if you have any student loans now, not just your
equity to debt ratio is just going to be you know, off the
off the scale. So
you already have you already are paying a mortgage.
Yeah. Yes. A mortgage on I don't know,
nothing. You got scan kid a liberal arts degree? Well, I'm
distressed by this. This is the sounds that it's like it takes
it just I'm distressed. It's taking the show into a dark
area. It's an Easter, it's Easter, it's the resurrection.
You should be resurrecting yourself.
No matter. You're
baring your soul. You're putting yourself in the cave. Move those
stones in front of the entrance. I want to know, please. So this
is the start and just Yeah, go ahead.
Ebook a giblet
how I got off the grid by Adam curry. Nice how to get off the
grid by Adam curry getting it off. No, no,
no, no, no. No. OTG by Adam curry. Okay, OTG TG, TG by Adam
curry. Yeah. The pager, the pager. The pager community is
great. There's still three networks.
Hey, guess what? I'm gonna get a C band satellite dish. Oh, nice.
Yes. Would that be cool? Yeah. So
you can watch nothing. Everything's encrypted. No one's
using them. You know, I looked for a while I was going through
this what I really wanted. I really wanted to use Iridium the
satellite system because you know, it's very hard for them to
pinpoint you. And, and I set out well, I Well, I almost went with
the They have like an explorer thing, which is for backpackers,
and you can send and receive SMS messages or email. And of
course, you can also send your location. The problem with that
device is you don't retain your number. So your number refreshes
the only way someone can send something to you as if you've
initiated contact first. And then they have to click on a
URL, which shows your position on a map. And then then you can
reply like, No, I don't want that. And then you look at the
Iridium phone, which is just a big bulky piece of looks like an
old Nokia
fries your brain when you hit send.
So that's two and then they have the Iridium go, which is a
hotspot for the satellite, which has nothing but it's like
iridium, no, is pretty much the review. Like this is not going
to work. It's It's shit. But still, you could do text
messages, etc. But you still need a Wi Fi device to talk to
it. And
have an LC W go there.
Well, I told you that there was a while back where I was
forwarding things through aprs. Yeah, and it will show up on my
on my, my handheld mic, my handy. My handheld, two meter
radio two meter size.
Ground with a two meter radio on your belt. Yeah.
Now besides that, looking extremely lame.
But you gotta have the pager. It looks lame, but old fashioned
now that the pager says doctor in the house, you have
no idea. Kids are gonna latch on to this. They're all going to
want to pick one pagers again.
Well, I'm not saying this that was in the realm of possibility,
what you just said. But if you look as these are the cause of
the hipsters. And if
you look at these pager networks that are still in operation,
their websites are still from 1988. If they haven't changed,
it's
each page and they have Do they still using the
blink? No, but each page does end in dot htm all caps.
Nice.
I think what I really want they weren't offering it, but I want
the you had a better Motorola, which gave you like 10 lines of
an LCD display and had a little calendar
to compete with the Blackberry. Yeah,
that's the one I really want. But they don't seem to be you. I
think you can pick it up and then you can have I just want to
get this one first. I mean, it's only 30 bucks. It's refurbished.
So it has apparently no cosmetic issues on the outside the
insides all refurbished, because they don't make them anymore.
This
probably moves probably just surplus. They call it
refurbished.
So if anything, we should get into the pager business. Buy up.
I'm sure you
have another no edge and money making idea. Yeah, baby. We're
on our way. You guys do. We're the big shots and pagers. Us
guys pagers.
So let me tell you pagers that's the future. That's right and get
into it. So yeah. OTG Well, I'm gonna I will document what I'm
doing. And then we can see if we can turn that into a giblet how
I went off the grid.
Yeah, no. Interesting. So
I'm gonna now well actually, here's the business. You kind of
made a joke about it. But, but in reality, we do need a hipster
utility belt that has a built in holster for your pager that
built in special holster for your vape you need that? And
maybe even a little a little smooth pouch for your iPod
Touch. These are probably hard to get Can you still buy those?
They still sell them? iPod Touch?
Yeah. No. You sure? No,
I'm not sure. But I'd be stunned. To be honest about it.
Well, it might as well go to apple and see what they're
doing. Hold on. It would be under iPod. Oh, they don't even
have an iPod section anymore. And they've
maybe dropped the whole line. Did they? Let's see as possible.
See,
iPod Touch. Stupid.
by who? Oh, you can get with the fast ah ship. Oh,
you need an iPod Touch baby.
Nice. Do they still sell them? View the iPod Touch site. Okay,
here we go. I think they still sell.
Wow, we get news
with the eight chip. Well, of course now it may have a lot of
the spy crap in
there. Oh, yeah. They probably have GPS tracking and all the
rest of it is has the motion coprocessor
it's got a lot of stuff in there. So I'm kind of happy with
this. I think this and you can't even update the iOS just like
oh, you're good nine dot 3.5 Stay there. I could jailbreak
it. Maybe If I wanted to, but I feel pretty secure just using it
purely as a Wi Fi device for the browser and for my email and
screw every the screw what's at the side my
advice to you don't buy any copies ever of Catcher in the
Rye
guy shouldn't have them laying around or I shouldn't read it.
Just there'll be 10 guys out there they got that joke.
Okay, they can email me.
You're gonna have to, hey, I
had a nice lunch with Baron Roger Coburn, who is from
Michigan. He stopped by was in Austin visiting his sister. And
we had lunch on Friday. And he's he's quite a dapper, dapper,
dude. He's a dapper dapper Yeah, he's, he's brave. Really. He
drives a Tesla in Michigan. So he's pretty brave
especially in that weather. Yeah. And he
actually he said that you know, you're right as I was driving,
because I realized I'm a lot less careful than I used to be
with the autopilot and stuff like that. So I may have saved
his life. And would Yeah, and Barry gave me two cool things.
He gave me a fast that I can do that apparently works to remove
all allergies and someone who knows in Austin did it and, and
is now allergy free. It's a fast word. I drink lemon water with
honey and cayenne pepper. And I don't know if five days
is Tina Stiller around.
But more importantly, he eats Nassim Taleb This is the guy as
a block the black swan guy who predicted predictability with
the crash I think he's also predicted bitcoins demise. Where
are we at today? But that but yeah, Bitcoin must be doing
great. Actually. I think I read 6200 yet, because that, yeah,
that's all about Yeah, I do. That's the bounce back. Let me
see where we at.
So let's just go on with the story.
So this guy has written a book called skin in the game. And he
says, what is really a big institutional Baron? No, no, he
hasn't read he has written a different book about finances.
Now this Nassim Taleb, The Black Swan, he wrote this book called
skin in the game which I started reading, and he continues to use
this term minority rule. And I've heard it and of course,
we've discussed, you know, the kind of the idea, but that's
really what's going on in our society today is minority rules.
For instance, in certain cities, most butchers meat will be
kosher, or lots of products will be kosher. And the majority of
some are halal or halal, exactly. This is minority rule.
Where Okay, well, we might as well do this. It's the lowest
common denominator, so we should probably all do it. And this
appears to be something that needs to look into. Which is
really how Yeah, well, it's Yeah. It's like the whole LGBTQ
thing. Who are pissed off? About the scene?
About the surgery don't mean LGGDTTTIQQ a PP
No. LGBTQ Qi a P K. to be correct.
That's any more correct and what I Yeah.
But glad is bent out of shape. No, I'm sorry. Outraged because
forget, citizen no citizen, now that they all look at the census
like, Oh, there's the census. Oh, okay. It must be racist. Oh,
man. There's no question if there's no question about LGBTQ.
So glad GLA D are outraged because hey, if we don't know
who's LGB LGBTQ IA PK, then resources could be taken away
from them. What resources well, that's what they're always the
rights and resources is what they're always talking about our
rights and resources. Yeah, this is a real story. Yeah. And it's,
that's the American Community Survey, the one that we
discussed on the previous show, which was handily renamed,
though, even though it still had the citizen no citizen question
in there. And so, yeah, the LGBTQ are arguing that this has
to be included, you know, are you LGBTQ? Of course now you get
other groups saying, Well, I'm a or I'm a or my AP. I'm K. It's a
mess. It's a mess. But yeah,
it gets a mess. This is what our shows for Yeah, to straighten
out the mess for everybody. Yeah, well, I can't get to the
show today, though.
What do you would This is the show What are you talking about?
This is the show.
Well, we both have this one clip. We're gonna take a little
break from our chat. I know exactly what you're talking
about. Yeah, we both had this. This was over tweeted everybody
got a clue what happened was Sinclair Broadcasting who was
based in Austin. Oh, really? I thought they were based in New
England. No
headquartered in Austin. They bought the remnants of me via
Sinclair Broadcasting. Yes. He shares the same one. I'm pretty
sure yeah, it's the one that owns the hundreds of T TV
stations. Yeah. That Yeah, well, those T is sick. Now you got me
wondering because I don't think they had anything to do with me.
VO
Well, they bought the remnants, they bought the studio. And then
Ron Blum put together that Hollywood Today Show, which was
broadcast on their stations
was on Fox and local Bay Area.
It was brought, they had they don't own just Fox, they own
other states. They don't own Fox either. No, they own. They have
they own stations. And so I'll leave it at that. And some of
those stations are Fox stations.
So there's loads or just stop. Sinclair Broadcasting is a
conservative operation. Yeah, they're also a Sunday, I would
say they're slightly dickish. They're the ones who tried to
prevent HDTV from getting word got. We all have HDTV now. 16 by
nine, HD DVR, digital TV. I'm sorry. I'm aware.
I'm sorry. Continue.
Yes, HDTV, digital television. And the 16 by nine format, it
took over the place to the point where they made the rest of it
illegal or they just made you take you couldn't broadcast
analog anymore. And Sinclair was a big roadblock to this, they
hated it. And because it was and the reason they hated it was
because they had all these TV stations. And they knew it was
gonna cost a meant to retrofit them all to send digital signals
out. And it was like a pain in the ass. Yes,
they didn't want to pay them want to pay the cost.
We're making good money now we don't need this digital crap.
Yeah. And so they made a fuss and it was really a boost kind
of ridiculous in the at the end of the day. So they will anyway,
so they bought even more stations in the meantime,
because the other guys they finally said, Hey, wait a
minute, these guys are going to spend their stations is going to
put all that money into go digital while we wait till they
do that, then we'll buy them right. So they kind of changed
their ideas. And so now, like a lot of stations, they own
probably a third of the stations in the country at some sudden
too many ago too many stations. So they I guess they every so
often put out this memo that the news operations are supposed to
read as as if it's theirs. And the memo in this case it was it
was an editorial they all read and it was all we fighting fake
news in our community of blank space. And then they read the
whole thing which is wrote and and I guess some smart cookie
out there went to all the Sinclair stations are had two of
them in his area. And he noticed this exact same thing. So he got
copies of all these people saying the exact the hundreds of
stations saying the exact same thing with the exact same
cadence. And we're just replacing the name of their
towns. And it was hilarious. Everybody in the Twitter and
everywhere else I go nuts over this thing. And I we do have a
copy and we'll play it. If you haven't heard it, which you'll
end up hearing it probably a lot. Listen
to this for a second. I'm looking at their corporate
website. I think they may have moved out of Austin. Actually, I
think you're right. But Blum was here and I went up and I met
them. So you know, I met someone who's important as Sinclair here
in Austin in 2010s. According to our history, recognizing the
benefits of scale and reach, Sinclair led the next wave of
industry consolidation. As its platform grew and viewing
patterns evolved, Sinclair launched its digital platform,
emerging network and other original content. It was during
this time that David Smith's vision for the mobility and
portability of the television signal took hold as the industry
coalesced around the need for ATSC 3.0.
Yeah, yeah, it's another one of those things. Nobody uses it.
Right. So let's play this again. You'll be highly amused,
and it's not as if we have never noticed this as if we haven't
played clip after clip of the talking head saying the same
thing constantly. But now it's about a Trump run network, Trump
friends and now of course, Oh, wow. Now, look at this. Who
knew? He's mind controlling you? Evil if you've been listening to
and I'm a little disappointed honestly. But the number of yeah
the over tweets in the over emails like that. I don't think
one single person said, like, like, we didn't know this. Now
what I got was I'm sure you saw it, I'm sure if someone sent it
to you, which is okay. And I want to never think that, that I
haven't seen it before. It's
times there is some obscurity that people think gets around
more than does this the only reason? And this was almost put
together professionally, because it's a video is very personal.
It has all the little boxes and has everybody talking at the
same time it is quite slick
work as well in audio, I've noticed because you don't
know. There's a moment in there where they're all talking to you
and it just sounds like cacophony. Yeah, well, let's
place not bad. Let's play
Headley and I'm Ryan Wolf. Our greatest responsibility is to
serve our Treasure Valley communities, the El Paso, Las
Cruces communities, eastern Iowa communities Mid Michigan
communities. We are extremely proud of the quality balanced
journalism that CBS four news produces but plaguing our
country,
the sharing of biased and false news has become all too common
on social media. more alarming, some media outlets publish the
same fake stories without checking facts. First,
the sharing of biased and false news has become all too common.
First, unfortunately, control. Dangerous to our democracy, this
is extremely dangerous to our democracy.
This is extremely dangerous to our democracy. This is extremely
dangerous to our democracy. This is extremely dangerous to our
democracy. This is extremely dangerous to our democracy. This
is extremely
dangerous to our democracy. This is
extremely dangerous to our democracy. This is extremely
dangerous to our democracy. This is extremely dangerous to our
democracy. This is extremely dangerous to our democracy. This
is extremely
dangerous to our democracy. This is actually my favorite part.
What I like about this is you can really hear the different
news anchors acting in what they think is an important news
anchor II type of way. And you can once you know, now you
really are cognizant of it being a script, and how they are all
trying to put their own little personality. This is dangerous.
And that's why I mean, just listen,
this is extremely dangerous to our democracy. This is extremely
dangerous
to our democracy. Everyone
has a different read, you know, this is extremely,
their tone it differently. I like key. I like it. Well, the
thing that bothers me about this, and yeah, you're right,
you can kind of see the but what I see is actually a narrow
range. I'm not saying like,
No, listen, listen to this last sequence.
This is extremely dangerous to our democracy.
This is extremely dangerous to our democracy. This is extremely
dangerous to our democracy. This is extremely dangerous to our
democracy.
This is extremely dangerous to
our democracy, at least is extremely dangerous to our
democracy. It's almost like an audition tape. You know,
people are auditioning. I want
mine. Yeah, five different reads. Please. Yeah, yeah. just
changed it up a little.
This is extremely dangerous to our democracy.
This is extremely dangerous to our democracy. This is extremely
dangerous to our democracy
is great. Now, the thing that of course, this overlooked is the
amount of packages that are pre produced and this was compiled,
I believe, I think progress. So it's a that is a DNC powered
group. Yes, it would be right. Yeah, it was professionally
done.
This was done. It was overproduced. Actually, they
would have if they backed off a little bit, it wouldn't look so
ridiculously slick. And I will say this, though, before you go
on with that, what you're gonna say is I'm more annoyed by the
fact that they were given, apparently, given zero latitude,
because you don't not everybody has to say this is extremely
dangerous to our democracy. You could have said, This is
dangerous to our democracy. This is really dangerous to our
democracy. This is kind of dangerous to our democracy. Oh,
you can't editorialize like that, but this
is the editorial people that are doing this, they should be able
to editorialize. But apparently, it's all centrally located where
you hear you're gonna have to say extremely well, that's
douchey.
We're used to we used to get this at MTV all the time. We
were forbidden to say the VMAs. And if you slip that into a
segment, you get a call from HQ because I'll be monitoring up
there at 1776 Broadway. Hey, Burnett, he said VMAs its Video
Music Awards. That's our brand keep it that way. And now if you
look at MTV, it's all VMA this VMA that VMA this VMA that they
were always like that it's yes, mainstream is is completely
controlled. This is why we don't participate in that system. This
is why we only are supported by our producers who we don't
consider to be a product or even listeners their producers of
this product creating the value within their own network. And
with that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the
morning to you John C stands for cell phones are out pages are in
the double
rack in the morning to you Mr. Paranoid also in the morning all
ships at sea all boots on the ground all feet in the air, and

comments are bloggers I mean, email, apparently there's some
Twitter account. And if you send an image to it, like a street
sign would be an example. Even if you put some stickers on it,
they will tell you the readability of it according to
their machine language algorithm. Oh, yeah, it's kind
of cool. So you can test and see get a
sense of I combined it we got that note, which I'm
very surprised because you are his Slavic brother. Why are you
only emailing me? Not you? What are those cents? What is wrong?
Let me see. Let me see if I can find his email real quick. Well,

friend William as the douchebag swears he's on a long term
payment plan but I am growing suspicious as I anxiously await
for his knighting ceremony. Also, not only is he admittedly
using native advertising to promote his new business, but he
just received his doctor's note to take his dog with him to work
every day for a motion to support
Oh noes. Wow, do you need a note from your doctor when you're in
the tent and you have your dog there for emotional support in
San Diego? Or is it just Okay, I
think they probably have a doctor sitting in the corner
right in Scripture pot. Next few months my text tone has been
fact check false, which I always enjoy explaining to new friends

got Daniel Warren in Boise, Idaho 333. Hopefully get to my
donation message this time. My last one somehow got lost.
Despite John replying to my email. Oh, well, I didn't have
anything that interesting to say. Anyway, if you wouldn't
mind, I'd appreciate if you would play the news clip I sent
you on Twitter. Oh, okay. Well, I
don't know what that is. Me neither.
But I will go look it up and we'll maybe play it in the next
show. Okay. He says that was certainly the says hopefully it
will encourage other listeners and producers to donate is
certainly a kick in the pants. I need it. Can I play with that?
We'll definitely look it up. Can I get a dealer's choice of

where they will seek asylum as refugees are just sneak in,
rather than their own countries, they plan to drain ours of ours

the caravan.com We'll take a look. But if they're economic
migrants, they cannot seek asylum. They are not refugees.

people came in and $50 and above shortlist today. But hey, it's
Easter. We don't even know if anyone's listening. But we're
happy to be here and we will do it again on Thursday. Remember
us at
vorak.org/and you're
hanging out with the family getting ready for a little bit
of Easter Brunch Why don't you try propagating our formula
is this we go out for yet
people in the mouth shut up Yeah. So we I guess we can kind
of tie it in here even though kind of fits around. It does fit
around and donations segment what has been going on with
David Hogg and Laura Ingraham. Have a clip. Good. I got a
couple clips to what do you have?
Well, you can play mine and then you can play yours. It shows
you're probably better. There's just the apology clip.
Okay. Fox News host Laura Ingram announced last night that she's
taking a planned vacation from her program next week. Now her
break comes after about a dozen advertisers cut ties with our
show. After she mocked Stoneman Douglas student activist David
Hogg on Twitter, and grim later apologized.
Yeah, that's not entirely the story. That's not exactly how it
went. But it's a crappy news. Although I have seen a lot of
people do say, Oh, she's on vacation. Hashtag done. Hashtag
hashtag fired.
A flash tag done. Yeah. But you know, this is a great day. This
is take example Eli, we'd pull eat. It doesn't go very long on
this show before he can pull up one of these examples of some
Porsche lab schlub. Sorry in this case Ingraham in this case,
yeah, this case Laura Ingraham getting guy her Ticknor ringer
for saying something that, you know, turns out there's a big
pressure group behind this cog a character well be your little
thing on a hog was was devastating. I thought but now
hogs still up there.
No, no, it's, well, they pull. This is the problem here. And
this is extreme child abuse. I feel very bad for this kid. He's
a kid. This is just let's remember, he's a damn kid. He's
10 years younger than my kid is. He's a kid. He's being abused.
And this case he was abused by media matters. So yeah, Laura
Ingraham. She tweeted something semi mean. You know like, oh,
well, your to your you can't get into UCLA because of your grade
point, average, whatever gives a crap. And by the way, the whole
world uses a different system we have it was one to 10 What does
this 4.2? Do? You got a 4.2? In Europe, you're a loser?
No. What? No, we just I think it's worse than that. Because
what you're dealing with is zero to four is the scale. There's no
10. No, but in Europe is to 10. Yeah, well, that's fine. But
that's your but we don't do that we have a B, C, D, E, or F, A,
B, C, D, where's the E? A, B? C, D? ABCDE? F? Yes. Yeah. There's
no way they can't even do that. Right? So if so, a
one stop if it goes to four, how can you get a 4.1?
Exactly?
I thought it went to five. Oh, this is not
a ghost of four. And you get to 4.1 to 4.2 by taking these
things called AP advanced placement. it for some reason it
did changes that Oh, you got an A you took four classes in one
Advanced Placement that's five classes, you got an A in all the
classes and in the advanced placement, you got five A's, but
you really only took four classes. So you have to do the
division differently. So you end up with over four as an average,
this is nuts.
It is and also you know, what is the what is the perfect score
then
appear? Who knows? And depends on how many advanced placement
courses you take.
And I'm sure it all flows right into your FICO score somewhere
there's no doubt about
it. This is all part of the giant scam that the public is is
has to be. I don't know why they're not up in arms about
this 4.2 idea.
So she said Bob, have you Oh, you only got this it'll be so
stupid, which I think could have been more slam on the university
itself but okay, and then everyone's all pissed off. Oh,
you're bullying the kid. You burning the kid. The people who
are abusing the kid are calling her out as a bully. she
apologizes by no but that's half hearted. It's no good. I don't
accept that apology boycott her boycott her the Media Matters
whispering in there. This is the cartoon we need comics or
Blogger. Although it's it would probably never make the artwork
but this kid is has Media Matters whispering in his ear.
This is what they do. This is their system. It's you know, and
what's going to happen? It's already taking place the kid is
now the new Hitler. Every meme on the face bag and the tweeters
is him Heil Hitler. There's some really good ones actually.
Pretty funny. Yeah, the Hitler
you guys where he really takes to that small little mustache.
That kid he does
take to it very well, but it is abuse of this kid. So here's CNN
him explain explaining. We should be kids. splaining. What
went down?
David Hogg joins us now. So David, first what surprised you
more Ingram's apology or that powerful response now from
advertisers from advertisers all powerful response that you know,
when you look, you can mess with guns in America. Okay, when they
say, oh, man, you mess with guns. This is really the worst
thing you can do. You can even mess with God in America. But
when you mess with advertisers, you got to be very careful.
Because if you think is any Broadcast Corporation that is
happy about this, you are wrong. They all know what can happen
can happen to CNN can happen to any organization. This is the
most dangerous kid thing the kid has done. You do not fuck with
the advertisers in the United States of America.
I think what was more surprising to me was the apology because
that was kind of expected especially after so many of our
advertisers dropped out like that. That was one of the things
that disturbed me most there are multiple tweets in between her
first tweet calling me out and then the other tweet where she
basically tried apologizing. There are multiple instances
that she could have done an apology but didn't Oh, it wasn't
fast enough. I'm glad to see corporate America standing with
me. And the other students are heartland and
Okay. Whoa, whoa, did I just hear a young kid say I'm glad to
have corporate America stand with me is this now what it's
come to nice catch we have we have to be against the man at
all costs all the time children most there
are multiple tweets in between her first tweet calling me out
and then the other tweet where she basically tried apologizing.
There are multiple instances that she could have done an
apology but didn't. I'm glad to see corporate America standing
with me and the other students of Parkland and everybody else
because when we work together, we can accomplish anything.
Oh, yes. Oh, yeah. When we work together with corporate America,
David Hogg, future leader, future senator, you'll you'll
find out if we really solve problems. When we work with
corporate America. It's a great idea. Keep that attitude.
Remember that
no matter who somebody is, no matter how big or powerful they
may seem, a bully is a bully, and it's important that you
stand up to them. There have been multiple instances
throughout Ingram's professional career where she's tried calling
out people, for example, at Dartmouth University because of
their sexual orientation. And she told LeBron James to shut up
and dribble I don't see any apology.
Oh, she hasn't apologized to Lebron James. This is she hasn't
apologized to corporate America because that's what LeBron James
really represents. No kid. He represents corporate America and
he needs to apologize. He needs an apology. And by the way,
Laura Ingram is a bully. I don't like the way she talks to
people. I don't like the way she interviews people. She's
definitely a bully.
But yeah, she's always been a bully. She was a bully on radio.
Yeah, like da but yeah, so
what but she
issued the apology. Oh, no, that's didn't do it quick
enough. And she hasn't apologized at
the time. This time thing get hit Trump did some time ago too.
But it's like you can't only just apologize, you have to
polish immediately. Immediately. You have to apologize fast right
away. Otherwise, it's just not fast and sincere. Yes. Yes.
You have to and you should go away for a while.
I'm at University because of their sexual orientation. And
she told LeBron James to shut up and dribble I don't see any
apology for those people. I mean, why? It's just it's really
sad. It's disturbing to know that somebody could cause can
bully so many people and just get away with it, especially to
the level that she did. But I think now
with to the level that she did
get things straight here. LeBron James being bullied. Guy is six
foot eight, he weighs almost 300 pounds, and he's built like a
brick shithouse. Don't be bullies this guy.
But it wasn't about him. It was about bullying, corporate
America. I guess that's what it was about. It's disturbing
to know that somebody could cause can bullying so many
people and just get away with it, especially to the level that
she did. But I think now with advertisers standing with us, we
can accomplish anything. Oh,
we stand with him. This is your new logo. Corporate America,
Pepsi Cola, we stand with hog.
The word bully stands out because some people are calling
you a bully. A conservative commentator Erik Erikson, I want
to read you what he has said. He said having someone apologize to
you and then refusing to accept it unless conditions are met is
what bullies do.
Oh, let's say definition of bully.
I never heard that one. I think I think it's a stretch. But it's
pretty funny. Let me see. Definitely you say you could
make that argument a
person who used his strength or power to harm or intimidate
those
direct translation?
I don't know he does have the power of corporate America
behind him. So that's that's pretty powerful. You know,
you're out there telling people a shut up or we'll take your
advertisers away.
What do you say to that?
I don't agree with it. Just like Laura, she can have her opinion.
He can have his it's up to them. But I don't agree with it.
Personally,
Laura Ingram has invited you back on her show for a quote,
productive discussion. Would you consider doing that?
I would only consider doing that. And after she apologizes
to all the people that she's heard throughout her
professional career, because because of her immaturity and
unprofessionalism. It's not right. And I think she needs to
apologize to those people that she's
probably won't be the last person to attack you. Do you
worry at all about this kind of back and forth becoming a
distraction to your main mission and what you're trying to
accomplish with gun reform?
Absolutely. Because I think when people call us out like this,
what they're really trying to do is distract from the bigger
movement here, and that we're not trying to take anyone's
guns. We're simply trying to save lives. That's all we're
trying to do. And when Laura uses divisive language, like
many, many people on our show have where she calls us the left
and right and doesn't acknowledge the fact that we're
just all Americans and
so his problem was not that she's a bully is like she she
employs the left right paradigm not like CNN or MSNBC do that.
But yeah, I mean, this, they're not divisive.
Our diversity is our strength. She needs to acknowledge the
fact that everybody's opinion matters even in from my
perspective, hers does too. But what matters most is that we
come to As Americans, and what I think shows like hers do is
divide us even more. And I don't think division is the last thing
this country needs. We need to come together as Americans, not
just Democrats or Republicans.
This seems to be the way he wraps up all of his little
speeches, is we have to come together right now over me. And
then be Americans and save children. It's he sounds a lot
like a politician. And and I think that's what he's being
groomed for. He's Oh, yeah, definitely taking his gap year.
So
I understand you're taking a gap year side, not college right
now. What are you planning to do? Are you trying to harness
something more in this movement and have politicians reached out
to you?
Yes, somehow, what I'm what I plan on doing during this gap
here, which I still may not be taken, I haven't really made a
final decision is I'm going to be working on a candidate basis
because there are Republicans who are supported by the NRA and
not supported by the NRA. There's Democrats that are
supported by the NRA, and there's Democrats that are not
supported by the NRA. I'm gonna be working on a candidate basis
to ensure that the best people that are willing to serve their
constituents and not special interests are getting into
office, which candidates have reached out to you there was
mainly one that's going against Steve King in Iowa that has
reached out to me and that's Shut up a few have reached out
to me but I think at the end of the day, which is that we all
hate the day
the deal is not signed kid it's not done yet day you got to have
some competition make sure you tell them that there's a couple
of people who have reached out to you
king in Iowa that has reached out to me and that's a few have
reached out to me but I think at the
day I actually hear someone whisper I think I hear something
I don't
think he's got it. i
Yeah, he does. Yeah, he
does. Get through the chat, but he I don't think that the
controller
let me just let me just hear it. Let me just listen. What if I
thought I heard not an IFBB I thought I heard someone whisper
something to him, Houma. Oh, the
man, I gotta have a sidekick there. Yeah,
I could be wrong. Let's just listen
again, Steve King in Iowa that has reached out to me. And
that's it. A few have reached out to me. But I think at the
end of the day, what's important is that we all just really come
together and work on this not as Democrats or Republicans, but as
Americans to solve this issue and realize that our strength is
in our diversity of people and our diversity of ideas, because
this is not an issue that has one solution. There are multiple
solutions that we must work to implement to fix this.
You know, I'm not quite sure what what is. What is his
message now?
These messages don't apart, he just
no key is not afraid. And nuttin, this kid is he's more
V's more heroic than anybody, you know, according to MSNBC.
No, that's right. John Howell, they talked a minute ago about
fear. And we think about politics today, we think
particularly about the Republican majority and
America's greatest scared rabbit, Paul Ryan. And we look
at all these Republican members that are scared to death, scared
to death of Fox News of Laura Ingram of Rush Limbaugh. And
what you see in this young man is a quality of character
fearlessness. And maybe that's what happens after you've been
downrange of an AR 15 That kills your classmates and comes close
to killing you. You lose all fear, because this kid is not
scared. He's not scared of the NRA. He's not intimidated and
scared by Laura Ingram. Laura Ingram Huff's and puffs, you
have half the Republican Party's hiding under the table, half of
them are hiding under their bed. They're so scared, so timid, so
skittish. Not these kids, though, and I think that it's
going to be definitional, to the political debate that we see
play out between, you know, November of 2018 when I think
Trump is on will be roundly repudiated and the next
presidential election and 2020 but that it's such a contrast
these kids to the elected officials in the Republican
Party.
Now I'm okay with this child abuse if you really need to do
it and tell you how brave everybody is. But could you just
do a story about something else once in a while
the Pentagon now identifying the American soldier killed in Syria
this week, 36 year old master sergeant Jonathan Dunbar of
Austin, Texas, died in a roadside bomb blast the
explosion happening in a part of Syria thought to be clear
devices. A British soldier was also killed in the attack five
others were wounded. Dunbar's death is the first US combat
death in Syria this year. He was a highly decorated soldier with
multiple awards and honors.
I'm pretty sure you didn't hear that report anywhere.
No, I heard it. It was played here. Yeah. Okay. I'm surprised.
It wasn't played on MSNBC, I'm
sure but definitely not. And the talking point from the right and
the Republicans is about this whole repeal the Second
Amendment, I guess what I should preface that by is well the
Removing the Second Amendment. And this is true, does not
remove you're repealing the Second Amendment, which I
presume will be taking in you have some amendment, the way it
works would have to be some amendment that says, Okay,
second amendment is now no longer valid, doesn't actually
take away any rights, which is true. The second amendment
forbid, this is true for bits Congress from making any laws
against those rights that you have. And the interesting thing
is that at the Bill of Rights, I don't think it's printed anymore
as such as a preamble, that is very clear that these rights can
never take that the amendments can never take away a right.
They can only increase the rights.
Well, I don't recall that. And I don't remember I remember being
brought up during the when the Volstead Act was passed. Oh,
tell me about the Volstead Act. That's the Prohibition Act that
took away rights.
I actually looked that up. That was the 21st amendment was
repealing the 18th. I don't remember when we asked, well, I
looked it up because I knew this would come up and the 18th
amendment. Do you know what this or the 18th amendment? Do you
know what that actually was?
What? Okay, so
I'll read it. No, I
don't I have not looked at these amendments. Now this is this is
important.
I didn't know either. After one year from the ratification of
this article, the manufacture sale or transportation of
intoxicating liquors within the importation that within the
importation they're of into or the exportation thereof from the
United States, and all territory subject to the jurisdiction
thereof, for beverage purposes, is hereby prohibited. Now, this
has to do with interstate commerce. And that's why you had
the moonshine runners and people were transporting alcohol from
one spot to the other, or from one state to the other. And
arguably, the federal government has power over.
All the wineries had to close in California, they could easily
because it said attain a number of them and sell wine and within
the state and do quite well, because
it said the manufacture sale or transportation and I I wager I
don't know for sure. But the 21st was probably argued
specifically on you know, the the manufacture thing, how can
you? How can you forbid people to make something? I don't think
so. Well, we have constitutional lawyers in our midst who
came up with some lecture in the mail.
But the preamble to the Bill of Rights. I'm looking forward
here. You know, whenever someone talks about the preamble, and
then it's like before, you know what you're reading the
Federalist Papers. Geez, I thought it was simple. You just
had these amendments as Bill of Rights. You read through it, and
there you go. But it doesn't seem to be that simple.
Well, where is this? Once you find it, read it. Okay.
It's preamble to the Bill of Rights. I thought it was in this
article, but for some reason. I hope you're also trying to find
this and not just sitting there. Just let me do all this
preamble. Okay, here we go. The conventions have a number of the
states having at the time of their adopting the Constitution
expressed a desire in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse
of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive
clauses should be added. That means you can make an amendment
and as extending the ground of public confidence in the
government will best ensure the benefits ends of its
institution. Where the hell yeah.
I
think that's the part that we're supposed to understand. That is
that's what everyone's bitching about, let me read again. The
convention of a number of the states having at the time of
their adopting the Constitution expressed the desire in order to
prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers at further declar
declar, Tory and restrictive clauses aago restrictive clauses
should be added. And as an extending the ground of public
confidence in the government will best ensure the benefits
ends of its institution. So anything anything they want to
add has to be restrictive in nature.
Yeah, restrictive of government powers. Yes. In other words, if
you're going to add something that means what you're doing is
you're saying the Feds can't do this. Yeah.
I don't think you can say new amendment. You can't own guns
that I think cannot be in the constitution. So what do you
make? What do you make of it? That can't have the you can't
put it you can you can, I guess you can say okay, we take out
the Second Amendment and then we can create laws. But we still
according to the Constitution have the right. Because it's in
the Constitution
only it know what does own natural rights rights. Yeah,
yes, that's but it's states that it states in the Constitution we
have these rights here's the ship government can do. So you
don't actually take away the right to own a gun to bear arms.
But what you're doing is you're you're giving the Feds an
opportunity to make laws that would.
Yeah. Yeah, it's it's complicated. It's complicated.
Well, it's not gonna happen anyway. Because there's no way
Nick, here, I'll bring it up again. Whatever happened to the
Equal Rights Amendment? Can't we all be on board with that? Well,
it didn't pass did it?
I think if you went on the street and did a man on the
street, do it right there in Congress up but they all think
it did. I don't think they know. They also
know everybody thinks it did. But it didn't. So unless you get
that done, which you're not going to get done, apparently,
because they've tried it. I think a couple of times, they
won't pass it doesn't go it doesn't. You get thank Phyllis
Schlafly for that. She went around and had this very strong
arguments as to why it's not a good idea to make men and women
exactly the same. Because they're not. It would never pass
it's not going to pass. And this This is not gonna pass either
because it's a tradition, traditions, or you just can't
write along and eliminate the tradition. I mean, I think
they'd love to eliminate tradition, they would like to
get rid of all of American culture, because then we fit
much better in the global system with global governance and all
the rest and, you know, hey, this is we weren't we didn't
have all these stupid ideas.
It was interesting. What did you call it? The Equal Rights what?
Equal Rights Amendment? Okay. Er, a
yes. Okay. I thought you said that Equal Rights Act. No, okay.
Because there was the Equal Rights Amendment Act which was
put in place to create the Equal Rights Amendment which is which
was proposed. Let me just see. Nevada ratified it was I'm just
looking at the Wikipedia
many states have it ratified. I don't think that many that's the
right state to ratify. To get a state to ratify anything
nowadays because it's split down party lines is going to be
harder and harder to change anything because of that they
got accepted as states like California they got
36 states
how many they need
why you need two thirds
right.
Well, that would be 3536 days is a
lot 38 You need 38 states today a
two to two laggards,
let's see who rescinded Nebraska Tennessee, Idaho, Kentucky South
Dakota. They rescinded Texas was all in California was all in
California is always so Nebraska Tennessee. Idaho race is Fox in
Idaho man. Yeah, so it wasn't
just us or Idaho donors. Yeah. Well,
I think Idaho knows their problems. Like people you can
walk with a gun on the street be can't smoke on the street. I
mean, it's a very odd place. It's true. It's true. Okay.
Well, while we're on guns for just a moment, you remember the
Quebec City shooter?
Who What makes you think Idaho is racist?
They didn't ratify the Second Amendment. I mean, the the Equal
Rights Amendment
how's it What's it gonna do with race? Just sounds
good. Everything's racist. What is anything anyone says about
racism today mean? In general? Can you just throw it out
whenever you want
to champion shimmy? Is your Idaho people aren't
Can't you oh please cheese? Yes. Sorry Idaho people yeah, here's
what you can do. Why don't you follow Surely our sponsor bully
our sponsors tell them to pull out
and apologize soon enough yeah.
took too long. I made three sentences in between my by
violation of my apology. So we had the Quebec City shooter be
so net who now changed his not guilty plea to a guilty plea?
They called C killed six Muslim men
two years ago three Yeah, well no, no, no, no,
no. This is this this year. I think was this platform. Let
me chime I've already lost it. Okay, go on.
It was this past year. Oh, I got something here in the show
notes. When was this now matters not. He has now changed his plea
from not guilty to guilty. And in the reporting, we're now
receiving that his doctor, not long before he did this, I had
just put him on a new prescription of a polo
paroxetine which, you guessed it is an SSRI. And if you have a
have an article here about it, including some of its side
effects, you can only know besides the typical anal leakage
and vomiting and restless leg syndrome, it's really that's
really one of the side effects, particularly the first few weeks
or window for that, particularly in the first few weeks, or when
doses are just a small number of patients taking this drug may
feel worse instead of better. For example, they may experience
unusual feelings of agitation, hostility, or anxiety, or have
impulse or impulsive or disturbing thoughts, such as
thoughts of self harm or harm to others. should this happen to
you consult your doctor immediately do not discontinue
your medication on your own. I mean, come on. And he's even
saying, you know, I did it, you know, and I'm guilty of it. But
it was I didn't feel myself.
This we didn't this was the drug that made it. And it's an SSRI,
it's a class, a lot of people. Let's face it, a lot of people
have certain kinds of dislike of other people, whether it's
because a religion, maybe Muslims, or maybe their next
door neighbor, or maybe it's just something you're used to
the like the guy and you take one of these pills, and you go
kill the guy. You think there's maybe a connection here, maybe
this pill and the killing? I'd say yes.
Yeah. But that can't be discussed on a on a show that
stands with corporate America. But I'm sorry, a show that
corporate America stands with?
Yeah. Corporate American in most cases, which is Big Pharma. Yes.
I mean, I'm watching. Just, I mean, besides the news shows,
which are drug drug drug, SOS pads, drug drug, drug drug, I'm
watching the evening TV offerings. And this drugs,
drugs, drugs, drugs, still, I mean, it says like the whole
day,
what do you watch shows where you're watching
it, I'm telling you, anything. I'll bet you have value. I'm
gonna watch a new Roseanne Barr show the next one, which should
be I don't know who's going to advertise on it. But I'll bet
you there's drug ads on that show.
I'll bet you there's tons of advertisers as well, I don't
think you really think okay, here's a perfect example.
But anyway, what do you mean, there's 10? I'm talking about
that advertisers use.
You said, whoever's going to advertise you like as if no one
wants to advertise? No, I
didn't meet that was an inference. Oh, I misunderstood.
You misunderstood? What I meant to say I said what I said, But
my point is, I'll bet you there's at least one or two drug
ads on that show. And every other show this, like every show
has got drug ads. It's unbelievable.
I was I was reading an article in see what it was that I was
New York Times. And ABC is saying that the success of
roseanne the reboot sprang from ABCs, Heartland strategy. And
they are claiming really? Yeah, they're claiming they
had Tim Allen on that network. What would happen to the
strategy then when they fired him? Well,
they began asking themselves, which audiences they were not
serving Well, after Trump got elected
after they fired Tim Allen Yeah, they asked it then. And I wonder
I don't think that's even in the entire article now. Is it? Why
it's not in the article, even New York Times Lane masses,
cheese, the big ask themselves, which audiences they were not
serving Well, and what they could do to better live up to
the company name the American Broadcasting Company. We stand
with you by the meetings, and they had in place the beginnings
of a revised strategy to lead the network to reboot a pest hit
centered on a struggling Midwestern family, a show that
had a chance to appeal to the voters who had helped Mr. Trump
in the White House. This is an admission of collusion. This is
pure collusion that ABC is doing with it collusion with Trump
isn't any collusion. They should go after their advertisers.
Media Matters we'll find a way to do that before long Channing
dung dung J. Hey, Channing Dungy Who is this? A woman? She's in
charge of ABC Entertainment. Yeah, a woman a woman. For
Trumpism I don't know this will not stand.
I can't believe it.
She's black. Oh no.
It's going to get set up. Then the press
OK. Channing Dungy, or Dougie, the president of ABC
Entertainment said the success of roseanne was a direct result
of the post election day initiative to pursue an audience
that the network had overlooked. We had spent a lot of time
looking for diverse voice
election, a Tim Allen was fired post election.
Yeah, but he's a white man. Roseanne, as far as we know, as
a white woman, quote, we had spent a lot of time looking for
diverse voices in terms of people of color, and people from
different religions and even people with a different
perspective on gender, Ms. DUNKEY said, but we had not been
thinking nearly enough about economic diversity and some of
the other cultural divisions within our own country. That's
been something we've really been looking at with open eyes since
that time. Yeah. Geniuses do these bullshit. It sounds like
bullshit to me.
Because yeah, let's play there's Fox good. Meanwhile, we have
this other little thing about rose Roseanne is getting a lot
of publicity. So the show's gonna do well for a while they
got picked up for the second season already, which is a big
deal. Play the Roseanne is on Fox and Friends a little
discussion about the New York Times editorial, the rough
and revival, calling Roseanne congratulate later on the
ratings. 80 million people watching in interesting because
it was middle America watching Tulsa Kansas City. Big ratings.
So the New York Times, of course, has to dump on
it because now let's be renewed for a second season because a
lot of people love this show years ago and now that's being
revived again. They loved the first season because Roseanne,
she's outspoken. We all know her and she's doubled down on her
political views. This is someone I think she's been a Democrat in
the past, but she's a supporter of President Trump not
such a bad guy. So the newspaper The President calls the failing
New York Times had this op ed about Roseanne, they said this,
the fictional family and the shows very real creator are
further normalizing Trump and his warped harmful political
ideologies. There are times when when we can consume problematic
pop culture. But this is not one of those times, the resistance
must continue. Sorry, that was my editorializing. I saw the
first two episodes of The Roseanne reboot. But that's all
I'm going to watch. It's a small line to draw but it is a stark
can't normalize President Trump by watching a TV show.
But you know what it does show that it did do well, and that
there are people not in California, not in New York
City. But all throughout this country that wanted a breath of
fresh air, they wanted something different and in the show is
entertaining. And it's funny, and I think that it's an example
of what this country is all about took
this long for someone to recognize that people who voted
for President Trump also watched television. You know what I
mean? These these award shows that the ratings keep going into
the tank. Maybe if they showed just a Scotia balance, and they
weren't just liberal propaganda. They might have more viewers.
Yeah. And that's what the show is about that the ratings 18
million was right around where the Oscars dropped to
US did you say a squash a balanced I'm not familiar with
this term? A squash quote
she said Squash. Squash? Yeah. Squash. It's not a real word.
No. No real word. It
is on Fox. Scroll. I didn't read this slam editorial. I did read
a lot of face bag posts. People say ah well watch out. Yeah,
virtue signaling to the cult. Oh, yeah. Well watch it. I can't
have any of her crazy views creeping in on my consciousness.
Oh, Lord, watch out. entertainment show. And it's
actually it's kind of doing what Hogwarts they'll be Americans.
Kinda
All right, well, that's the end of that topic.
Okay
hold on, hold on. I got some timely stuff. Timely stuff for
Easter. For Easter in line Easter. Yeah.
Ministry has summoned the French ambassador to explain why armed
French
that's the wrong one. You confuse me. This is the one I
want it. Here it is.
Rome is a city in lockdown. Hundreds of 1000s of people
pilgrims and tourists alike have already descended to Rome and
the area around the Vatican. Some participate in religious
events during the Holy Week. Others are just enjoying the
festivities and the start of the tourist season. This of course
is a warning for authorities. Because Rome has been a target
for terrorist organizations for a while but the threat of an
attack has become all the more real after a series of recent
anti Terror Raids that led to the arrest of several people in
the past few days. Of course, this means that the authorities
had to put in place some seriously stepped up security
measures. 10,000 agents will be patrolling the streets around
the city, Rome and around here the area of the Vatican 100 and
more extra agents will be deployed to train stations and
airports. A green zone is being created around the city center
in Rome where heavy vehicles will a green
zone that is an actual theater of war term. The Green Zone yes
so they're treating it as a as a theater of war zone
is being created around the city center in Rome where heavy
vehicles will be banned from there will be also metal
detectors there will be X ray machines that will screen
pilgrims and tourists want to access sensitive sites like for
instance, the Colosseum all extrordinary measures that the
authorities will hope will guarantee a peaceful Easter
weekend.
There's nothing like Easter weekend in the green zone. It's
so nice. And there's a rift between the Italians and the
French when it comes to security of the border and immigration.
Chile's
foreign ministry has some of the French ambassador to explain why
armed French border police entered a clinic that cares for
migrants trying to cross the Alps. Five officers burst into
the facility at Bardonecchia and forced a Nigerian migrant to
give them a sample of urine for drug test. Many politicians see
the incident as a violation of Italian territory. I'm
disappointed because they cannot act this way like bulls in a
china shop, especially in a china shop that is not theirs.
They can do their activities. They could do them in France in
other places and not in a facility dedicated to an
extremely delicate work. So I already said that must go on in
peace. The French government says the officials had asked for
permission to enter the center and weren't allowed in migrants
who have crossed the Mediterranean and arrived in
Italy sometimes try to reach France by crossing the Italian
Alps despite the snow, bad weather and terrain.
So they're encroaching on each other's turf now.
So it sounds like yeah, we have a lot of encroaching going on
with the closed they closed the Embassy of Russian Embassy in
Seattle. They've already closed a really cool one in San
Francisco. And now I guess the Russians are fighting back and I
got a couple of more interesting clip by Russia brouhaha of more
embassies closing.
The diplomatic crisis between Russia and the West is worsening
by the day. Today, the flag of the US Consulate in St.
Petersburg was lowered and the building closed. It was done on
orders from the Kremlin in retaliation for the expulsion of
Russian diplomats from the US and from other countries.
tensions escalated quickly after the nerve agent poisoning in
England of a former Russian spy and his daughter, Charlie dagger
brings us the latest from Moscow.
It's no coincidence that President Vladimir Putin's
military chose this week to display the launch of its latest
weapon, a well timed show of force that nuclear weapon dubbed
Satan to buy NATO ballistic missile designed to strike
targets anywhere in the world undetected. Russia's biggest
diplomatic target is already being dismantled the US
Consulate in St. Petersburg, America's largest facility
besides the embassy in Moscow. The Russians have been swinging
the axe on other countries to senior envoys summoned and
ordered to send diplomats home adding to the expulsion of 60
American diplomats earlier this week, and Moscow up the ante
with Britain now ordering more than 50 diplomats out British
ambassador Lowry Bristow,
it's important to bear in mind why this crisis has arisen in
the first place. Just the use of a chemical weapon on the streets
of the United Kingdom that has threatened the lives of a number
of people in my country,
including Yulia skripal, the daughter of double agent Sergei
skripal, whose assassination attempt using a suspected
Russian nerve agent triggered the worst diplomatic crisis
since the Cold War, as her condition has rapidly improved.
The British government says they'll now consider a request
for the Russians to see her. Whether she wants to see them is
another matter.
Now, before you play another clip, we got to talk about this
because there's a lot of things going on in this regard. First
of all, the fact that the daughter is getting better is
curious to say the least. Yes. Russia Today the state sponsored
propaganda media outlet, personally run by Vladimir
Putin. He just does like Trump he sits there in his in his
little bathrobe in the morning and tells them what to say. They
came up with a actually they sent to them. The list from the
Russian ambassador. Here is 14 Things Russia would like to know
regarding this incident number one, why has Russia been denied
the right of consular access to the two Russian citizens who
came to harm on British territory in that clip, it
appears that may have been turned around or rescinded. We
don't know to what specify what specific antidotes and in what
form were the victims injected with how How did such antidotes
come into the possession of British doctors at the scene of
the incident? Oh, that's a good question.
That's a great dad.
Whoa, whoa, hold on, hold on. Whoa, okay, say it. That is an
obvious question. Oh, man. I was ready to give you echo and
everything. Forget about
Oh, okay. Well, I'll do it again. Okay. You give me echo if
I'd known about the echo. Because that my friend is a
great question.
Okay, perfect. Nailed it. Not at all acted. I liked it.
Okay, onward
onward. Number three. On what? Do I have question antidote?
There's an antidote like a vaccine where you have to have
some of the original stuff in order to
No, no, no, no antidotes. I get chemical that just like late or
something, it's good. It counteracts three interaction
agent on here's this is where it gets interesting to me. On what
grounds was France involved in technical cooperation in the
investigation of the incident in which Russia in which Russian
citizens were injured? Did the UK notify the organization for
Prohibition of Chemical Weapons of France's involvement in the
investigation of the Salisbury incident? What does France have
to do with the incident involving two Russian citizens
in the UK what rules of UK procedural legislation allow for
the involvement of a foreign state in an internal
investigation? What evidence was handed over to France to be
studied? And for the investigation to be conducted,
where the French experts present during the sampling of
biomaterial from Sergey and Yulia skripal was the study of
biomaterials from Sergey and Yulia skripal conducted by the
French experts, and if so, in which specific laboratories.
Does the UK have the materials involved in the investigation
carried out by France? Have the result of the French
investigation been presented the OPC W technical Secretariat?
Well, we know they can't tell us because our guy there got a gag
order. Based on what attributes was the alleged Russian origin
of the substance used in Salisbury established? Does the
UK have control samples of the chemical warfare agent which
British representatives referred to as Nova chalk, and finally,
have the samples of a chemical warfare agent of the same type
as Nova chalk in accordance to British terminology, or its
analogs ever been developed in the UK? Seems like a reasonable
list of questions?
Yeah, especially if someone's going to blame you for attempted
murder.
And what is France doing?
That? How come that none of this has been reported? Why do we
have to go to Putin's Poland, Poland, Putin, Putin, the RT
shows to get this information, which is now as you hear that
it's mixed up but says it seems very legit.
Let me understand, because we've seen something happening. And I
haven't really heard that question. But it's my
understanding that because of the novichok attack, which
France somehow is involved in, in the UK on two spies, who are,
you know, in an exchange program, that's why countries
around the world are kicking their Russian diplomats out is
that the reason?
Seems to be a reason. Because yeah, it is. Because I've lived
Theresa May comes in front of Parliament and goes yakking away
about we're pretty sure I think it's a Russians. And it's
unbelievable that someone would use a chemical attack on our in
Britain, you know, in London, because
because in the reporting what you rarely hear is because of
this, Seattle close, you know, kicked out more Russians because
of the No, it's always in there. It's in the report, but it's not
really saying that and I don't think
it's something. There's something else going on as some
well, you know what, here's
a retired General Jack Keane. Here's his take on what's really
going on, he says, but I don't know how it relates to the
diplomats. But this is what he think Putin is really this is
the American propaganda machine.
The idea is gotta be dawning on Mr. Putin by now, that is surely
dealing with a different president in the United States
and Mr. Trump, given as mentioned in the introduction,
all the things we have done to push back on Russia, I'm
absolutely convinced to this low the thing that Putin has paid
the most attention to. The single thing is the build up by
the United States military and the FY 18 And fy 19. Budget.
Putin is looking at that as deja vu he remembers the Reagan
military buildup but actually forced the economic collapse of
the Soviet Union, and he sees the real money being applied
real capabilities. For example, the commander of AI forces in
Europe in testimony last week, is calling for increased US
troops to be put on the Russian border as a deterrence force and
in the budget. that he that we just approved. And he signed,
there's three times the amount of money in that, given the past
investments, so six and a half billion dollars, that means more
troops more capabilities. That is something that truly gets
Putin's attention.
What do you think?
Well, I think that's probably right. Because that's the
underlying
theme here. Nobody talks about that. Do they have got
supersonic weapons? And then we got Oh, yeah, have you seen this
f 35 land like a Harrier? Jet Mitch?
Yeah, well, the F 35 is a dog. The Russians know
that is why I call it a bitch.
That what got me was the net first clip of the two that I
have. They you know, Russia has now announced some new weaponry
that was stealth ICBM is for all practical purposes. Yeah.
Suppose it and it says it's called the Satan to what was the
one? Well, yeah, but besides that, it's like Satan too. But
is that the Russian name? No, it says it was called the Satan to
buy NATO. NATO has named it
the Satan. Hey, let's come up. Listen, we're all marketers
here. Let's come up with something that I'll really put
the fear of but Jesus into the people I know we'll call it
Satan. We already did that Bob. Just call it Satan to
exactly exactly what he already did. Call it Satan to great
meeting everybody Call me whatever you feel like calling
it it's got nothing to do with what they call it. Why are we
giving everything our name? That we've dreamed up for marketing
purposes? It's
such a good point. I'm glad you brought that up. What what did
they call it? Do we know what Russia calls it?
I know you some Russian name I'm sure some short named after some
guy. I mean, I don't know we should find out they're not
telling us or telling us it's called the Satan to you know,
Russia's not calling it the Satan to nobody would do that. I
know Mrs. Satan to me, come on. Oh my
god. You nailed it. Mr. Devore. Oh, My cheeks hurt from that.
Let's listen to the second half of that clip that is really
short.
And yet a further escalation. The Russians are now demanding
to know why British authorities searched a Russian passenger
plane that landed in London, calling it a blatant provocation
and threatening to search British passenger planes landing
here, arrow and ask them
what they're looking for
their social media accounts.
I don't know what they're looking for. You know, I'm of
the opinion that the daughters don't want to try to kill the
old man. Ooh,
I like this theory. I like it. Ah,
let me she's a Russian citizen. She's not like an expat.
Hmm
Well, that's maybe the guy's a jerk. I mean, I have no idea
Well, no, the problem is the novichok the problem is the
proximity to the chemical laboratory Porton down the
problem is the seek the actual exercise that they did in that
area just a couple of days before, you know a chemical
weapons exercise. I mean, there's a lot of problems with
this. And then the immediate, entire UN, all nations kicking
their Russians out. I mean, we still there's also a problem
with FIFA. I mean, the World Cup is in is in Russia
this year that this has something to do with it.
Although it's there's a
lot of money in in the in FIFA,
is a lot of money in FIFA.
And there's a lot of money in broadcast right.
The Russia is put on a show second to only China when it
comes to putting on you know, showing off their plays that the
stadiums and putting on a good show they do a good job. Sochi
was fantastic. China just tops everybody because it just I
don't know where they get all the money, but they do.
What is the what is the alternate city?
For FIFA things underway? I mean, it's not you can't they
could stop it. They won't. isn't their contracts have been
signed? Mm hmm. They just gotta try to keep the I don't know
what the whole thing it just makes very little sense.
Now, I don't know I don't know what to make of that. But FIFA
the FIFA thing and the World Cup in is going to be in Moscow.
Yeah, I think it's Moscow. Yeah, that's, you know, you can't
ignore it. It's just there's gotta be something. It's got to
be somehow it's being used or abused. Something has happened
but
she says we didn't even qualify so we don't care. The American
team didn't qualify for the World Cup. What happened?
Oh, really? We had our is our Tourettes goalkeeper. Still. I
don't
know who's what but all I know is we didn't qualify. They get
fired the coach in this big stink
now. Sorry about that. Sorry.
Screw Russia.
I think NPR might be trying to bring down the whole podcast
industry
Good luck, NPR.
They they are building an open source platform. Oh, NPR. This
is this is what they're doing with your money is an
NPR a broadcaster that broadcasts over the normal radio
waves and are subject to FCC.
Yes, they also have a big podcast presence. Huge, the
largest.
They know it's eating into this like it's cannibalizing their
real product.
Well, here's what they want to do. And I don't I don't think I
think lemasters you know, you're alone? who's the CEO over there?
You know, and, you know, I didn't hear from him for a long
time after we did that speech together in New York at the
radio thing. Yeah, he had open heart surgery. Oh, poor guy.
Yeah. But he's busy. These young guys in his 60s, young guy,
young guy. NPR, wants to create a platform with API's, etc. The
end, Dave, and I guess some protocols and formats is quite
an undertaking that any podcast app can implement into their
code in order to track actual listening of podcasts. So they
can use that would be some unique code so they can get some
real metrics. Yes, that
would be worthwhile. And they that you have advertised well
hold on a second. Isn't this somewhat ironic? Go ahead. Well,
you're NPR you're publicly supported, you got to, you know,
institutions that kind of throw money at you. And it's like, you
don't have advertisers. And you don't want advertisers and you,
you pretend that you don't need advertisers. And you do all this
sort of thing. But meanwhile, you bring a product that does
just really disservice advertisers. Zero sense to me,
NPR sells their mentions, their sponsorships, their
underwriting, whatever you want to call it, through the same
organizations that sell Pepsi ads. And in fact, someone over
there at NPR had a great quote, If you can measure it, you can
sell it that I think it was
the word sell, quote, unquote, sell to kind of an anathema to
what this what this public medium is supposed to be all
about. Yeah,
yeah. But they're doing well. I can predict what's going to
happen because they already say, yeah, yeah, we hope Apple will
get on board. Well, listen, you dipshits that Lee, I'm talking
to you, Lee. Because I can talk to you like this. We both don't
have advertisers, although you seem to sell something over
there. This is this is your future. Give it up stop
building. Go to Apple, tell Tom Collins over there. And Eddy
Cue, then maybe talk to you know, the nut job from beats?
What's his name? Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, I have been. You say we
want your technology to be open so everybody can put it into
their apps and it will happen. And once that happens,
advertisers are gonna go what? Because I don't think the
numbers are quite as big as everyone touts them to be. We
know that. We know it for sure. Even though we don't really know
for sure. Because we have no no clue how many people listen, we
have we use other metrics to make an estimation.
Yes, we reverse engineer our donation segments. Yeah.
But anyway, on NPR, they'll be able to make money they'll make
you know, digital dimes, the dollars it's the same thing.
Everyone's you just you can't monetize the network, which is
my credo.
This is where yes, this is your credo this is your you're gonna
that's gonna be on your gravestone. You can make sure it
gets put on curried date to date cannot mount you cannot monetize
the network right there. Boom.
I'm gonna show my son moved by donate to no agenda. Imagine all
the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd
be fun and, in fact, as opposed to monetizing the network or
monetizing the show, sir herb lamb is helping us he's the vibe
count of Georgia, Georgia. And $20.12 I asked as a happy
birthday to me. And he considers this a small boob donation
somehow.
It's very small.
Sir. Hey, moose in Mooresville, North Carolina. He came in with
$100 Wesley Walker in Pacifica, California and actually was the
K Walcker $100 James Zookal $100 LON Baker $100 We need some
movie Cori put some at the end for James.
I'm sorry. Troll room just posted. You got it all wrong.
Adam curry 1964 2075 He could not monetize the network rip. I
think that's funnier.
Yes, that would be funnier. Troll room wins in terms of the
joke showdown. Although we've moved on John Terada, yeah, you
know? Yeah, John Terada 6969 keep on keepin on, he says, Eric
raw Ross in Corona, California $66. And, by the way, mentions a
smokin hot girlfriend, Joanna Ortiz. This was a donation on
her behalf as a birthday gift.
Whoa, she's not in the notes. I'm glad you read that.
She isn't a notes. Yeah, she's
not on the birthday list. I mean, oh, ah.
I didn't even think that myself until you just mentioned it.
Yes. Put her in the birthday list. Colin airs in Troy,
Michigan. And I do have a note. I will read this because it came
in and as our handwritten note from peerless steel, and it's a
drunk donation of $60.76. It doesn't sound that drunk. I'm a
$5 and month subscriber, but I think it's time to give you a
chance to raise the analysis with entertainment value provide
is worth more than I can currently afford. Hopefully some
no agenda Karma can change that please accept this nautical mile
donation. My love 676 6076 feet is a nautical mile or one minute
of arc length along the earth meridian.
Nice. What's the number again? Six, six, nice.
We can put that on to the we get to make some of these guys come
up with the damnedest things. Now just as a PS and probably
the reason to read the note to make you feel better. Okay, PS
the audio quality of your show is second to none.
Thank you, except for the except for Thursday show where we had
to pull it from the backup micro cassette
You know the funny thing about Thursday show I had somebody
send me a tweezing did you use what Mike were you using on this
Thursday? Sounds great. No, I never said that. He just wanted
to know if I changed it. Yeah, he never said sounds so
what happened is because of a number of things I messed up by
change the routing and when did we have to reboot or something
we I got in I get interrupted in my flow. I didn't set up the
record the digital recorder write a record, I saw it
recording. But then when I listened to the show, it was
pretty much MSNBC which had been recording off of the the TV
receiver so that was useless and then the taking off the micro
cassette it had it had some it had some different quality to
it. We couldn't both put our fingers on it, but we knew it
was different. And had like a very light hiss in the
background. It was really, really stupid. I
don't know why it was anyway. So I gotta I gotta watch the live
the dynamics. Yeah, the dynamic within your dial. You've been
twiddling
Yes. Bit twiddling?
Yes. And so that's the reason the show sounded different on
Thursday. Okay, well, anyway,
thank you. I appreciate that.
Michael Missoula. Let me mozzie Leo at LACMA Z Leo mozzie. Leo
like Mozilla reolink. Because you Leo like I think that's the
333 He says Happy Easter the Holy Trinity is often
represented in numerology as 333 through 33, maybe God's way of
reaching out to you. Okay. So when you see that in your
receipt, which I put one in the newsletter, yes. So think about
donating Eric pokel in Deutschland in Well this is
interesting. Now he I think he used to be in Munich or some
places you know, you
know what we always said Munich and maybe he maybe that is
interesting. Maybe he changed it to just something else. Just so
it was messed up the spreadsheet.

servants Knight of the Southern Silicon Valley sent in and
nobody says Dear Adam and John. I'm writing to ask if it's
possible to get some karma from my father who passed away on
Tuesday. I tried to get him to listen to the show, but he was a
little too entrenched in the mainstream media. I would
introduce some topics to him and he was receptive though. He was
a brilliant and generous man who we miss him very much. He wasn't
a religious man, but some universal karma would be much
appreciated. Thanks in advance, of course. You've got karma.
Alright, sorry to hear that servants. Let me see. Well, we
don't have we have no nice things. No title changes that
kind of goes hand in hand with the with a donation list for
today. Easter. Easter. Yes, you're right. I will hand out
the jobs karma jobs,
jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.
You've got Well, it isn't Easter, and the birthday list is
pretty short as well. dude named Rob Cohen turns 37 Tomorrow,
April 2, and Eric Ross says Happy Birthday to a smokin hot
girlfriend, Joanna Ortiz. She celebrates April 4. Happy
birthday from Uncle John and Uncle Adam. That's it, nothing
else to do.
All right. Well, I do have a couple of comments from the last
show that want to carry over when we douchebag Chris Fisher,
okay. Who is uh, runs the Jupiter network of Linux.
Podcasts and they do a they do a podcast that people have people
listened to. It's called unfiltered. And it's a clone of
our show. Yeah, so they were called out for for this so I
did, I did some research. And so I found that so I probably have
the deed we should probably de Deus crush, crush, crush de Deus
de douche. Chris and his buddy Chase. And just get them a quick
deviation. Deed do apparently when they started this this,
this thing they started in 2012. After we'd done hundreds of
shows. They did credits at credit us at the beginning for
actually origin they end up clipping the origin story from
one of their early episodes. If not episode is not the
introductory episode. I think it's episode one. And let's play
this and then I can discuss this, this operation a little
bit.
I got to tell the story, you know. So I discovered Chris and
Jupiter broadcasting in the most unusual way. So part of my job,
I commute a lot. Depending on where I'm going that day, I may
be driving two to three hours. And so I'll be driving and I
listened to a great show that Adam curry and John C. Dvorak
does, and it's called no agenda. That would really be a great
companion show to the show. Yeah, absolutely. No agenda
show.com Check them out. They do an awesome job twice a week. So
I was listening to the show and they have a segment where people
are able to donate and throw money in and help them out. And
when you donate money to the show, if you donate at least $50
or more, you can actually write a few few notes and they'll read
it on the air. Yeah. So you know, I'm listening to that
during that segment and they always have fun with it. And
they I think it was divorced like so we got Chris Fisher
here. Marysville, Washington, Jupiter broadcasting, and and
first off, the first thing that caught me was Marysville,
Washington. I was like, wow, that's where I live. And then
secondly, I was like, wait, wait, he's in my backyard. No
way. I mean, literally, he was in my back yard, not getting
your stuff. Like eating my steak, which is really good. By
the way, if you follow me on Google Plus he saw the picture
anyway. Yeah, let me get back to this. So, you know, I contacted
Chris and I said, you know, hey, if there's anything I could do,
to get involved what you do, let me know. And you know, so we,
you know, we met up, we had some Italian we had a romantic
dinner, candlelight and great. We did. Yeah. And for the
candlelight. Yeah, no, candlelight. Yeah. But, you
know, I got involved and, you know, obviously, you know,
through our passion, have no agenda. And, you know, we have
similar interests as far as what we listen to. Yeah, not only
that, we're big in the tack. But we're also big into just getting
the news out there from a different perspective. I'm not
an expert. Okay, you know, I'm, I'm no expert, but I can
definitely inject my opinion. And I think it's important for
us, you
get an instinct for it, you start to follow these stories,
and
I'll start to see it, you start to see it. That's the remarkable
thing.
I think the media is, I think that 24/7 media tainment all
that is one of the worst things to happen to civilization.
Wrong again to vorak.
So these two guys, I think, first of all, I think they're
both overboard. And I think it's been because they would have
some, one of the two of them would have I know and Chris
follows me on Twitter. And one of the two of them would have
said something about being called out. But I don't think
they listen to the show anymore.
This is like a this is like a your own personal I don't really
care that much. You see,
no I know. But I'm interested because we have we were going to
have spin offs for people using our theories about how to cover
we
have what's called the it's called the nick the rat show. We
have a spin off we'll
be sighs Nick. I'm hoping to get anyway these guys. I think that
they're, I don't think they're doing as well as they should.
Personally do they do? Do it the right idea and they're and if
you fall if you look at this material, it's different enough
from our it's not they're just not listening to no agenda and
then do a no agenda. No, no, no.
It's the little things. It's the bell ringing. It's the it's the
red boy.
They also have a club 33 Yeah, that's
like, yeah, come on. I mean, okay. Did they take as
donations? Nothing,
I think no, okay. Here's the problem. I do not hear in this
anyway. They use Patreon. It doesn't work for them.
Cheese. Yeah. Well, we can help them out then. Probably John at
the vorak.org We'll see. It's a war of one John.
Snow war. I think they do a good job. And I liked it. I think
they're over producing here. There's another thing. I hate to
get into this, but but they, at least they claim early in the
early shows that they they do the show live to kind of live to
tape it not completely on Thursdays I like us only night
at night. They they post the show on Monday. Now I want to
mention that people would think about doing podcasts
so they so they're doing a lot of post production.
That is my guest and I wouldn't want to I have the same issue
with briny who she's got a little quicker turnaround,
congressional dish. Congressional dish and excellent
show. Adam turns this show around, go over the production
way this works. We do the show live to tape. Adam, who is a
really a production, savant, fantastic guy that doing this
stuff, but he doesn't like and even as immediately, he tried to
get them to do this. It never would nobody's doing this. But
he likes the idea of doing it. It's kind of Krusty the Clown
theory, do it, you're done. Get out.
That's me. I'm the crust of the crust as a clown of audio.
You are. And so we do this show. It's all rinsed unless there's a
fix that's needed, which we usually don't have very rarely.
Adam ends the show, closes the file, pulls out a clip from the
middle drops it at the beginning. That's the only post
production that's done it just for it's a gimmick. And then he
we pick the art which takes us you
know, we I was thinking one of these days, I'd like to go
through the entire I don't have a checklist. I do not have that
so much that is done. And this should include bitching about
people, you know that we have a checklist of stuff that we can
we repeated every time almost exactly the same. Sometimes. I'm
laughing and then I skipped a step. We need a checklist. And I
wanted I want to record it if we ever put on the show, I don't
know. But if we record it, you'd be astounded at how much work
goes into post production in a very short amount of time.
But it's a short amount of time, which is the key. Yeah. So we
pick the art we argue about the title. If we have one. Sometimes
one of us comes up with it. We'd get that done. That's about a
five to 10 minute process Max. Adam does Is the RSS stuff which
is a bit another little pain in the ass but he cranks through it
really quickly sends the show to be rendered. It's done and
posted about 20 minutes after the show's done. It's out we
don't it's not days later, even when a horror was who learned
his what skills he has, because I used to do that DHS unplugged
show but Dora Woods picked it up. Horowitz has actually taken
extreme lighted even more because he's got to go to bed.
And so what he's done, he pre selects the title, pre selects
the art and pre produces the website. Really? Yeah. And so
then he runs the track the opening and closing tracks. In
real time we jump into the show, run to closing track, he hangs
up on me, the show is then rendered and out within 10
minutes.
Hey, he does he he pre produced the title you said, yeah.
Because you know, that's one of our checklist items is okay
title. And then the guy is like I say semi? Now you'll say
something like that. No. Yeah, kinda close. Yeah, maybe keep it
on the list. We had a hard time. On the last show, I think wasn't
the last show was the show we've
had harder.
That's what she said. And so
but she would always so yes, he would. He was, Horowitz writes a
script doesn't know another thing he does, he does all this
stuff in advance of the show. And so he has a title that he
uses, whether you like it or not. And it will which is fine,
because but this show is out faster than anything. I mean,
it's faster than it's only an hour or two. It takes less time
to render. So it's out almost because he's wants to go to bed.
And so he cranks this whole saw necessity funny. But people out
there doing these podcasts, many of them just really spend too
much time fine tuning them. And you know, getting him just
writing in bed. I just beyond me why you can't adopt a live to
tape. Get all your ducks in a row. It's always the podcasts
the same week after week, every radio show, show after show.
Just get it done. And then post it is the end Adam is it? He
knows I know he's how good he is at this. But consider this show
is complicated. Compared to the HM plug. There's no none of the
extra stuff in the engine plug. So it's easier to post but but
anyway, so I just throw that out there for anyone who's thinking
about doing this sort of thing in the future.
Well, along those lines to semi Julie masters. Yes. Right. I
do hear that. Adam?
Yeah, I'll tell you how to do it. It I mean, why why asked me
for any advice on any of this, you don't think I would have
invented the wheel or some. Something cool is I just signed
up for it. Amazon transcribe is now coming to AWS, which means
you will be able to listen to this you drop an mp3 file into
an s3 bucket. You issue as like a one line of code command and
out spits a timestamped speech recognition text file.
Sounds good.
Well, what's what's interesting about because, you know, I think
their speech recognition is probably very good. Considering
the, you know, the Headstart they have really on everybody
with with their echo device. But now we found that was the New
York Times we found this, the Amazon has a patent for picking
up pieces of conversation and then sending that into an ad
advertising feed or, you know, personalized ad for that person.
And they use vacation conversation as an example in
their patent filing. So this would be very interesting to see
how good they very they are. I mean, I've signed up for it. I
don't know if I've been accepted into the program yet. We should
have all of our dudes named Ben getting on that
program. Yes, please do.
It will also make them board it will make shownotes dynamite.
Imagine the show should be great because then you can do a global
search. Yes, you
can search on topics. Exactly. It would be so cool. I really
look forward to that. All right, after all of this talk. We gotta
have something different one like I gotta take us out. Yes,
Chris Matthews. You think oh grown but know what a great
guest he had on? According to credible news reports. Stormy
has a dress. I'll just let that hang out there. She's got a
dress. Monica Lewinsky dress. Yesterday. On Sunday Mark
Zuckerberg
takes out a dress with sperm. I love it.
I doubt it.
I love this. And this is perfect. The I mean just
throwing something like that into the beast is good enough
for me.
That's this is part of the whole thing. The Democrats have been
irked yes about the Clinton impeachment ever since it
happened. And so they're modeling, trying to get Trump
rousted. I mean, the Clinton was impeached because he lied. Under
oath. He committed perjury, which is a
crime. Yes. It's also not nice.
And so we ended up with this. Now, we're just trying to do
parallels here, because it just kind of jogs the memories. Oh,
yeah. Well, well, if Clinton was impeached because of that, and
Trump should be impeached, kind of logic to try to create this
kind of dead end logic, but okay. Yeah, bring on Maxine
Waters and let her talk about the dress.
Ryan Seacrest accuser says I'm not going to be silenced. She's
filed a police report. This is the woman who's desperately
trying to prove that Ryan's secret secret is not gay. And
we're having a hard time buying it. Honestly. We're having a
hard time buying this. That's the problem with the Ryan
Seacrest story. You know, people over there at EA right. What are
your policy? What are they? Where are you people say he's
gay.
Yeah, exactly.
Ren and Stimpy. Creator, accused of preying on underage girls who
wanted animation careers.
Yeah, that's a good one. Ah, they get your animation right
here.
animate this. Mount Holyoke women's college orders
professors not to call students women.
Yeah, I saw this story too. What do you make of that? I was Why
did the story never really explains why you have to use G
or Z? Or are they or whatever? No sense.
It's because some students may identify as non genders or
different genders. So what I would do is if someone said,
Hey, all you women stand up, all you women raise your hand. I
just wouldn't raise my hand. And I said, Why didn't you raise
your hand? Well, I'm not a woman. Why do we have to have a
law now? All of a sudden? Miss misgendering
that's what it is. Yeah, miss. Gender is a crime in Canada.
Yes. So
that's the issue that I guess
where is this college?
Well, it's a famous school. I think it's back East. Okay.
Well, here's this is the offbeat story while you're at it.
I was just going to finish with with one more hashtag finish
with a million. Yeah. Well, Oakland restaurant devises
system to combat customers harrassment of workers. And I
think it's called
I did this a local store. And I've never heard this. Yeah.
But see which restaurant this is. This is the mac and cheese
restaurant in Oakland, how come you don't know about this?
What's up with
me though, about the mac and cheese restaurant? I would
probably reject any stories about it.
Okay, we'll see. You probably had a subconscious rejection of
it. They have the max system, Max, which of course ha mac and
cheese Max manager. actually funny management alert color
system. And the way it works is and I think there is probably
there's probably an issue here that that could be addressed.
But the lawsuit. Well, the problem is, people are
harrassing I presume only female servers. And so now they have a
color system where you can say, Okay, I've got a yellow here.
And that the manager should then keep an eye on what's going on
at the table. Orange, if you say I've got an orange here, maybe
one orange requires the manager to automatically take over the
table and read means the customer has to leave. And
there's several examples in the San Francisco Chronicle articles
pretty Yeah, like touching and groping and you know, nasty shit
like that but on the ass but also, you know, there's also
guys who are like, hey, you know, I mean every movie we've
seen this it's so hard. Hey, you know what do you what time do
you get off work? You know, guys tried to pick up a few
waitresses
must be stopped.
It's just like as American as apple pie.
This wants to be stopped. We cannot have men trying to pick
up women ever shouldn't even be talking to him.
I would like to know from some of our female producers out
there and male producers. Hello. Male producers,
always the same thing like the Harvey Weinstein thing. If
you're a good looking guy, you know you got the right car.
Yeah, you can that's okay for you to do it. But any other
creep? No.
Absolutely not. Well, speaking of such, you remember
whistleblower Wiley? Yeah, the dude with the pink care and and
the noticing character yes
yes yeah the bridge now what was what was one of the things that
I took some exception to was that he was saying these guys
this Cambridge analytic ah, please M five M get it right
analytics analytical no Analytica, how hard is it to
remember just one name cheese
and I don't know Bill
Tom Collins right now he was he was saying I'm the only gay guy
in all of London who has a card of this, you know, the entrance
card to the strip joint.
Oh yeah big. Yeah, he's a big shot gay because he goes into
strip clubs.
Yeah, and because that's the way these evil guys did business. No
gay would ever do that. Well, we got a fantastic note from
producer Scott. Greetings Adam and John. As a gay guy. And a no
agenda producer. I used to go to a strip club up route 10 from
County College of Morris. I can't say I know. At Morris, New
Jersey for lunch with a friend a few times a week. They had
excellent cheeseburgers. I'd always have my folding cane on
the bar in front of me which led to a lot of lovely conversations
with the ladies plus some lovely suppled Boob handling Yes, even
blind gay guys love boobs. Thank you. Thank you for some sanity
because neither you or I have any any standing but then you
know to add the Gucchi eye problem to it just makes it that
much better.
Well, yeah, it's very very good.
The funny thing is
you've been to that club. Well,
yeah, I've been to the club but he I can't long we were talking
27 years ago or something. Yes, be good. But he said even blind
gay guys love books. I know we've met boobs but he
misspelled the law. Everything was so perfect. Cuz I'm sure
he's dictating or something. And is dictation why dog? Can't be
boobs? Books.
Oh, that's funny. But you re edited it.
Of course. Yeah.
I know. I meant books.
I went for the cheap laugh first as always. Horse that's what you
do a breves which we've been tracking. These are
abbreviations may or may not have found their genesis in text
messaging. And what's happening in emoji land. Normally early
days of texting. It really is a phone for sure. Yeah, but it's
not just become speech. And one of our producers shoot who sent
this to me. I feel bad now because I wanted to give them a
shout out maybe this is you know, sent me a screen a screen
or picture of head and shoulders. They head and
shoulders bottle. This is the dandruff shampoo plus
conditioner. It is in advance to in one green apple with a
lasting fresh scent. So it's the real deal. It has a little I
don't know what the technical term for this is like an insert
like there's a sticker on it. But it's not really a sticker.
It's it's in the on the on the bottle itself. And it's red and
looks like something important kind of like what you did on
your books instant bestseller. Right? You know what I'm talking
about? Yeah, classic. So it says number one, hashtag one number
one DERM. Rico? As in dermatologist recommended.
Yes, I figured that out. DERM Rico.
They're putting that now in there. And this is advertising.
It's on the bottle. This is their branding, I would say
Durham Rico.
I mean, you could use these certain stupid words to mislead
people. For sure. Like maybe there's not one dermatologist in
the world that would recommend this. But you put DERM Rico to
know what that means is and he got something else. Yeah,
let's see. We just said during Rico we didn't say dermatologist
recommended.
Yeah. Have veggie guts.
You know what that is? That's us. Yes, I got a note from
Karen. Another yet another millennial abbrev. To add to
your list sauce is in suspect or suspicious Gardasil for boys
halus. Us?
Yeah, we're
learning. How does that change from sus as into suss out?
Oh, I don't know, suss out what sauce out?
I don't know. So tell me you hear us. I think we're about
Sister studio. I mean, it's sus sus. You can look it up in the
urban dictionary figure it out
sauce. It is very sauce.
Well, I have a class clip. Okay. And I think it's important when
it's the New Orleans cheerleaders are finally stand
or at least this one is standing up for her rights.
And they saw the photo and said that it was just tasteful.
The team accused her of breaking rules that prohibit cheerleaders
from appearing nude semi nude or in lingerie. Now in a civil
rights complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission, Davis argues the saints have two sets of rules,
one for its female cheerleaders and another for its male players
that want us to be treated like professional athletes who have
worked hard and who do our job well.
Bailey also says the team fired her because of rumors she
attended a party with players which he denies. According to
the complaint, the Saints require cheerleaders to block
players on social media and are not allowed to eat in the same
restaurant.
And this is gender discrimination within their own
organization.
The team says the New Orleans Saints do not tolerate
discrimination of any kind, and it specifically denies that Miss
Davis was treated any differently on account of her
sex.
It's not fair. Our just as hard growing up to be a dancer as a
football player said
Davis says she's not trying to get her job back. She just wants
equal treatment both on and off the field. Good. Here is NBC
News.
I found this to be annoying. Okay, girls can't have to block
everybody. They can't be seen in the same restaurant. Meanwhile,
these guys can go to a strip club. And see lower paid or
higher paid hard to probably higher paid dancers spinning
around a pole. I just thought this was I just was irked. Okay,
I
think I had one thing here. Oh, actually two things. Yeah, this
is what this is, as this Court case came to an end with the
wife of Omar Mateen, who shot up the Pulse nightclub we think we
don't know anymore. Kind of could be all been very
confusing. We learn more every single day. And I remember very
specifically that there was an event that took place in Orlando
almost simultaneously. Then there were I can't remember
exactly what we were coming up with. But I knew that it was
somehow it was related to this pulse club thing. And because
the cops responded really quickly, I can't remember what
it is. Maybe you can but first here's here's what we learned
about the shooter.
shocking statement during closing arguments in the trial.
The Pulse nightclub shooters widow Prosecutors say the
shooter Omar Mateen originally wanted to attack Disney. He was
planning to hide his gun in a stroller and make his way toward
the shopping and entertainment complex outside of Disney World.
But police scared him off.
Hey, Carol. Yeah, this was of course something that shocks and
worries a lot of people we all are very familiar with Disney
Disney World and, and the whole Disney lifestyle. It's why so
many people come down to Florida. It's why they go to
California. And so Omar Mateen. He is the man that carried out
the deadly Pulse nightclub shooting. It was revealed
through testimony in the trial that his primary target was
meant to be Disney Springs. So just to make absolutely crystal
clear here Disney Springs is that shopping, dining kind of
entertainment complex. It's not inside the theme park. It's
outside, but it's still part of the Disney Experience and many
people know it. That was his intended target. That's where he
went the night of the attack of June of 2016. As you say with
that fake baby and a baby stroller he was really trying to
play it up. But then there was the heavy police presence that
he noted there. And that was enough to scare him off and is
too often the case in terrorist attacks. It pushes someone from
a hardened target to a softer target. In this case, he quickly
shifted gears and went to the Pulse nightclub.
Now, here's here's a just a small example of the report of
the incident that happened around the pulse club night
shooting right outside of Disney breaking news overnight.
Starting with that shock we woke up to
it certainly is a shocking horrible story a massive search
underway right now for a two year old boy grabbed by an
alligator his father desperately trying to rescue him. And of
course
that happened one of the most popular resorts in America is at
Disney Worlds Grand
Floridian you see it right there.
So there's all kinds of problems I can't I can't for the life of
me remember, what was the issue with that alligator, which was a
very weird story. There were some weirdness about it. And
then I mean, but now we have to question is Disney gay? I mean,
wasn't Owen Mateen in the nightclub because just wanted to
kill gay people dig we'd got to take all that back. We need the
march back. We need everything back.
Well, these stories always evolved this way they did that
this Las Vegas thing is completely out of control. We
have no idea no idea. And yeah, he was gay and he or hated gays.
But he was gay. But he was married or maybe he wasn't gay,
but he hated gay somehow. Yeah. And he was gonna kill all these
gays and Disney. Just the shopping center as the least of
the gay parts of Disney I'm sure. And these are negative
stories for Disney and both. I think both the ones you played I
know the Stephanopoulos one for sure came from ABC which is
owned by Disney boom. So what is that about? Something's screwy
here. I don't know if it's just screw it. I don't know maybe
they're just trying to confuse us.
While that's working and, and I have a net neutrality clip kind
of from Europe all everyone's so happy. This is very interesting
what's happening to the entertainment business with the
art. I will say the American American entertainment business
with the EU. This is not to be discounted as a problem
going on holiday but don't want to miss out on watching your
favorite show. Well, from April the first you can stream without
borders within the EU. It's all thanks to the portability
regulation, meaning content providers like Netflix or Amazon
Prime have to allow access to shows from their local
subscription in a foreign EU country on a temporary basis.
Many consumers would not only like to benefit from their
subscriptions when they travel. But they would also like to have
access to foreign digital content which is offered to
consumers in other countries.
We like that content very much it is very good, especially if
it is a pornographic nature.
If you're from a certain country of origin, you want to see what
is going on at home. You want to have access have access to your
TV, so to speak in your previous country. And this is not
possible today.
This is the dream of the digital single market, making all
content accessible throughout the EU.
I think we have learned from the experience of the music industry
that the best way to counter Copyright infringement is to
have an attractive legal offer that is worldwide, where people
can for a fair price access any content they want. And the film
industry has still not understood this, they still
insist on bringing films to the movies at different times in
different countries, or not to allow streaming at all in
certain countries. And this makes people upset because even
if they are willing to pay, there simply is no legal offer
for them.
Getting Hollywood on board may prove a lot more difficult.
While the USA does not have a monopoly on must watch
television. It is dominant in cinema and jealously guards that
position series
that I very much light is brought church and there is a
third season that unfortunately is not available on Netflix,
Belgium, nor Netflix, Germany. So I'm afraid that the
portability regulation won't solve the problem for me,
though, yes. No nations no borders streaming without
borders.
Yeah. Yeah, because worse marketing, they don't they can't
have the actors and actresses cannot afford to roll out these
movies simultaneously to all these countries. It's just your
your TV shows even, or TV shows because it's just too much. It
can't be done. You got to send the people over there. And then
they all get on the talk shows and talk about how great his
movie is. And then a movie comes out the next day or the movies
coming out tomorrow. Oh, you have movies coming out tomorrow.
And then they go to the next country in the movies coming out
tomorrow again. And you just did they lose sales if it just did a
massive rollout and worldwide rollout because they've moved to
get bootlegged within 10 minutes. And they would cut
their revenues way down.
And rest assured that Netflix tends actors on promotional
tours and just like you know, the big Hollywood movies, their
own stuff, Amazon do that. Yeah, I mean, imagine, like Grand
Tour. You know, those guys go around the world, promote it
promote in whatever country they're going to be they go
promoted there to or neighboring countries. Yeah, that's just one
of the many aspects and besides there being an absolute
financial benefit, but this could also be just a massive
Hail Mary. I don't know maybe there's so much pirating going
on that like shirtless dudes, we got to do something. That's also
a possibility. I have not heard a lot of where's that? Douchebag
the ex politician who runs MPAA Chris.
I don't know who runs MPAA the
loudmouth douchebag. That would like
MASH. loudmouth. Douchebag. politician is redundant.
Chris Dodd? Maybe? Is it Chris Dodd? I think so.
Well, let's just look it I gotta consult the book of knowledge.
Yeah, well, then.
PA or story. Don
nailed it. He did. So he usually comes out and start I mean,
he'll even gets into State of the Unions and stuff. I mean,
the MPAA is powerful, and are wildly quiet. Why are they quiet
about this
much more powerful than the Ria? I don't know. Why are they
quiet? Maybe they're not quiet. Maybe nobody's picking up on
their stuff anymore. Oh, that's gonna hurt some people. Was
somebody somebody's gonna get it? Yeah.
Somebody's getting cornhole tonight. Meanwhile, what is it?
What is Netflix's answer to this? They go and hire Susan
Rice. So they appoint Susan Rice to their board of directors, who
is kind of a no nation's no borders stream without borders
person, which is certainly globalist, she certainly has the
international connections. To make this you notice, grease the
wheels as it were, everyone's like, Netflix. She's the answer.
She's they're gonna have to fire her after a while, I think
she's. And then finally, we're already Where
is she, where she, Hey, stand up, I am standing,
Ah, nice, vertical handicap joke. Very nice. It could land
on Austin Bay, it's
just weather forecasting, right is really hard. And we're at
forecasting the density of the upper atmosphere of the Earth.
And when the sun burps, and radiation and plasma towards the
Earth that
just has BBC mind you, when the Sun Bursts changes, the density
of
the atmosphere changes the headwind. And so the Chango one
spacecraft is going around the Earth at 17,000 miles an hour.
It feels a very thin headwind from the outer atmosphere. And
as that gets denser and less dense, the rate the chain goes
spirals in speeds up or slows down. And so we just
overestimated how much the slowing would be gave it a few
extra hours of life. So we'll see things could still change in
the next few hours. But we're pretty confident now that it
will come down sometime later on the first early on the second
orbital space. Yeah, but
you can predict Go ahead. Title rise over here on the bay in 100
years, what is it going to be in 100 years you can predict that
but you can't tell anything about the satellite flying
around what you can track there it is you can see it
worth 43 degrees south listen to the rain minutes it goes around.
So what he's saying is because of the burp of the sun, if the
sun burps that could slow it down or speed it up and so you
know, that could be a 17,000 mile difference that's why they
can't pinpoint that it's going to land on Austin.
Yeah, well, it's not gonna land on Austin although it'd be great
if it did.
Oh, think about the show material. Oh, yeah. I love how
we're in such agreement about this stuff.
Oh, yeah. I would refer you before you play so if you want
to play one Oh, I'm
sorry you already gave me your last clip
I said that but I was wrong I lied. You know I'm still upset
about the Mandela effect of the Hello citizen clip because I
believe it came from Starship Troopers although you proved
that it didn't because you had the whole clip I do have a
Starship Troopers think this kind of like maybe have
triggered this or may have been part of this although the
Mandela effect this change it but here's that Mike that
service guarantees citizenship clip from Starship Troopers
young people from all over the globe are joining up to fight
for the future.
I'm doing my part. I'm doing my part. I'm doing my part. I'm
doing my part
they're doing their part are you join the mobile infantry and
save the world service guarantees citizenship. A
citizen
so I'm still upset about this.
Are you okay now?
No. All right.
Well, then you should probably find that other podcast to pick
on to get it out of your system. So entertaining to hear you do
that?
Yeah, I guess Yeah. Okay, I get the picture.
No, it's okay. It's like I don't like to hate on anybody.
I'm flattered I hate none of my said they did a good product.
Um,

Then the other one wasn't me hate it was somebody that wrote
in gotcha was one of our producers Hi, just reading their
notes,
but they always kill the news anchor John tau ghosts. Just ask
Brian Williams.
Right. It's just a liar.
