Greta mania, Adam curry John C. Dvorak. Thursday, August
29 2019. This is your award winning get one nation media
assassination episode 1168 This is no agenda. Just another
Microsoft morning and broadcasting live from
opportunity's own 33 in the frontier of Austin, Texas
capital drone Star State in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where we're getting ready but
not for sealed indictments, Hurricane Dorian or helicopters
on Mars. We're getting ready for Greta mania. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Raglan buzzkill
professional man I just just that was so slick
Greta mania,
Microsoft morning. Screw Greta
what happened?
Oh, man, that was a big Windows Update. And I always get up at
530 on show days and I did last night. Yeah, you were smart. And
I usually just like if there's gonna be an update, you know?
5:30am is okay. If it takes 30 minutes 45 minutes and I have to
reboot everything just to make sure it all works and then it
reset drivers it turned my screen to dark mode. I've no
idea why drivers were set to the wrong bit rate just I don't know
why I did that. I had that thing. Turn me into dark mode
once out of the blue update. I can't figure out why. But I
never had a bunch of drivers reset maybe because you have all
kinds of weird drivers that no why would it reset any of them?
Yeah, it shouldn't just leave it the way it is. Maybe the updated
a driver? That's possible.
Then usually then Windows 10 update shouldn't be updating
drivers randomly.
Well, who the hell knows. That's the one thing I did appreciate
about the Macintosh. If it was broken it was just broken for a
long time. There was no no quick little fix on Tuesday it just
busted Yeah, he just these things anyway, we're on the air
everywhere. Yes, Greta mania. She made it didn't she?
Oh man. I was stunned and then she came I guess she came out
the other end okay, now she's stuck over here and is going to
be Greta mania you watch can be like the Beatles
if you're going to do a ticker tape parade through New York.
She might. I do have an NBC Bloomberg report if you want to
play that a
teenage climate activist whose passion for the planet has
attracted global attention arrived in New York City today
the young environmentalist chose to travel on a zero emissions
yacht and she invited fans to share the journey. Here's Kelly
cobia.
Tonight climate activist Greta Thunberg is back on dry land
after 15 days it seems
very overwhelming.
The 16 year old Swedish student who started a global youth
movement when she went on strike from school last year set sail
from England August 14 for New York and the United Nations
Climate Conference. Taking a boat she said because flying is
terrible for the planet. So I think this will be fun sharing
her maiden voyage with her 2 million social media followers
tweeting it's like camping on a roller coaster and on day eight,
you really lose sense of time. But one day stood out
that they are high waves
that bad weather making them just one day late.
It is insane that 60 will have to cross the Atlantic Ocean to
to make a stand after two
weeks to stare at the ocean and think about the planet. Kelly
cobia yep NBC News.
Yeah, yeah, well I handed to her I'm impressed that's that was no
no small child I probably would have turned it down myself. But
that's okay guys unless
you're a sailor and you really like you want to give it a shot
on some really very high end boat but one of those guys
now this is a whole United Nations deal and of course
they're flying the crew back how she getting back that's still
unclear
she got a single hand the boat back it's gonna do we mean the
flying the crew back Mabel gonna do?
I don't know. Maybe we get to keep her that would be nice. So
you know here on the no agenda show we're not big fans of
abusing children for climate for green New Deal climate change
hysteria. But she seems to be into it. Okay, that's fine that
Canadia has Canada has a new campaign where they're really
abusing kids. And this is the 18 to eight campaign. Have you
heard of this? Yeah. Well, the 18 to eight can to eight Yeah,
so they feel that 18 know the voting age in Canada Navy is 18
and want to change it to eight? Yes,
they do. And here's why.
Your threat How many years do we have? Excuse me? Do you guys
have a moment to talk about climate change?
We polled kids across Canada and ask them to recollection issues
in order of priority 74% rights, climate change is the issue most
important to them.
Climate scientists are now saying we only have 12 years
left half if we want to avoid catastrophic damage. That's why
we're lobbying the federal government to lower the voting
age from 18 to eight. Get these kids are not here to let the
kids let the kids vote. Let kids vote. The kids
that last voice at the end was Mr. Miyagi they even got him in.
He's 100 years old now. You know from Karate Kid? Yeah. So yeah,
there you go. The kids again, terrorised.
Let's take his VO. There's also a jingle to be any of the kids
were seeing that that was pretty good. Yeah.
That is actually a good one. Oh, let me see was, what did they
say again?
Your threat
that's your chance. 12 years left, we're all gonna die. But
it's okay. Because this will happen less frequently in our
future, this is going to go away. It's going to become less
of an issue. You know why?
Well, it'll die. That's why
well, no, no, no, it's the children will no longer be
making children, we have to reduce AOC real goal AOC said so
herself on her live Instagram,
I think about the kind of family that I want to plan. And I've
already known my entire life, that one day, I'd love to adopt
children. But even now, you know, when you put climate
change on top of that, I know that I want to, you know,
perhaps have one less child than I thought I would maybe have if
if I can even have a child biologically, I don't know.
Just, you know, try. And, and, you know, I think having a mixed
family is mixed part of my personal planning. But it's
really hard. And I don't think sometimes that older generations
really understand how much we're taking this into account.
To account
that they don't want to have children's, less children's. And
he
said, the way she says it, she says I don't think the older
generations know how much they're, what did she say?
What's the last bit
again, I think about the it's part of my personal.
So she says she wants to have a mixed family with one less than
she would have planned planning as part of her planning.
But it's really hard. And I don't think sometimes that older
generations really understand how much we're taking this into
account.
Oh, no, we do. You're terrorising the younger
generation. I we're very cognizant of what's going on.
Thank you very much. ageist. We know what's happening just
prick. What's happening. What what we don't to talk about is
that Michael Mann, the premier climate scientist, who first
handed the hockey stick graph to Al Gore
was James Hansen, who handed the hockey stick nose
and that was Michael Mann. Okay. And he just lost a court battle
has to pay a court case court costs and lawyer costs because
he refused to produce the underlying data in court of his
assertions. Oh, he's got nothing. But he refused to show
it.
Why if it's so powerful? Yeah. So he just made it up.
Yeah. What was the actual?
Oh, this will be good. This will be swept under the rug. Yeah.
Well, there's a bunch of reports about this. Now, this was the
hockey stick trend that was featured in the third IPCC
assessment report that came out in 2001. That is what Al Gore
used, and what was the Oh yeah, so the court in British Columbia
dismissed his lawsuit because he was suing you know for slander
or whatever because many this doctor ball I think said is
bullshit you don't have it's not true and they dismissed the
lawsuit with prejudice which I think me in this case means it
was so stupid you brought this to the court and it's the art to
regression analysis which underlies his graph he refused
to produce the documents was ordered to produce them by the
court given a deadline refused to produce them the court
dismissed the case now will you hear that anywhere on mainstream
media probably not
not with Greta mania
good old Greta Luckily though Greta mania Luckily, though, we
do a you brought the analysis of this Amazon lungs of the world
to the previous show, which now you were seeing new I saw at
Newsweek time. Did New York Times did they do any kind of
story on this? This hoax that I didn't see it that the Amazon is
the lies of the world's well Latins of the world, Nat Geo had
a nice little ditty on on the Amazon. And
you know, the funny thing is, Pamela Anderson used to be the
lungs of the world.
One single tree can produce enough oxygen to support two
people and the Amazon rainforest is 10 times the size of Texas
producing 20 times more oxygen than all the people on the
surface of the Earth could concern but not one breath of it
leaves the Amazon there are so many animals living in the
Amazon Basin, that the life there uses all that oxygen.
For all these years, I've been thinking the rainforest is the
lungs of the planet. Now, sure, it makes a lot of oxygen, but it
uses it all. No, that's another interesting little factoid. It
never really leaves the Amazon. It's not
lived and I will. I don't I think I mentioned this after the
show. And you said you didn't say it on the show? I thought I
did. But I'll say it. I'll say it now which when I was a kid,
that's what we were taught. We were taught that Amazon is the
you know, get produces all this oxygen. And it's like very
crucial that it's remained intact. Yes.
I think I learned similar.
Yeah. Just just reminds me of the International Geophysical
Year, which I believe was 1957
and was recorded by Steely Dan.
Then, before, before the International geophysics Year,
everybody would in the schools would teach that it's just a
coincidence. That if you look at a globe, that South America kind
of fits into Africa, like, like a couple of jigsaw puzzle, kids.
Oh, yeah.
I always heard that. No, no, no, you think that fits now? No,
there's just so much bullcrap. Oh, man, that was a coincidence.
Yeah. And then the International Geophysical Year appeared. And
they determined they desperately discovered tectonic plates. And
it realised that yes, it was once one giant landmass and it
moved away very slowly. But it did fit. Which was the which was
the first thing you you'd see when you looked at a globe.
Logically, it looked like it fit with fish, and they're trying to
deny that the opp Vyasa 80 of it,
why were they denying it and when now it's it's generally
accepted as true.
baffling, it just became some sort of a standard, you know,
somebody? I have no idea. They didn't want to believe it. I
guess it was like, No, I can't possibly be true, because that
means it would be one giant landmass. And we have no
evidence of such a thing.
Well, this is such a convoluted topic that the Democratic
National Committee voted against a presidential climate debate
amongst the candidates. The delegates voted 222 to 137
against allowing candidates to participate in the debate
dedicated to the topic. After a heated floor fight interrupted
by protesters chanting We can't wait and failure of leadership,
which are not good chance, by the way, but okay. This is quite
quite lame. So they decided no, we're not going to have a debate
just about climate change. CNN immediately turns around a
second. If you're going to address this, which we have
addressed in the past, this has been going on for a while but
what will What would be the debate? They're all on the same
side?
Well, I completely agree with the leadership actually that
it's it would be suicide for them to have a debate because no
one has answers. It's all conflicting. You're right.
They're all on the same side, it would just come down to how much
money? I don't know it would be. It would be hilarious to watch
and great for our show. It would have been fabulous. So instead,
they someone co opted CNN, and they announced an unprecedented
top primetime event. They're going to do seven hours of town
hall back to back live from New York on Wednesday. taking
audience questions. Oh, yeah. So we start at 5pm with the WHO
Leon Castro, followed by Andrew Yang at 540. Oh, there's
different interviewers to hold on. This is great. So Wolf
Blitzer.
Hold on a sec. All right, wait, I should mention this. Because
this is a little a dimension to what you're doing here. When
this first began, which was before the first debate, they
said, anybody who takes part in something like this will be
kicked off the debate stage period. None of you remember
that I do. Well, these guys that you're starting to mention
already, I don't know, maybe it's going to be a change if you
keep breeding names. They're already off because the
Democratic Party decide no, we're going to do one debate
now. It's not gonna be 20 people. And they've already done
excising numerous people from the stage. Well, that sounds
like these guys are two of the guys.
Well, we're only going to have one to 10. And but this lineup
is very interesting. Again, it starts at 5pm Eastern Time, and
it ends at ie around midnight, Eastern Time. So if you were to
take this rundown and you flipped it to the left, you
would have the people on the left start and the people on the
right end, and of course the important people in prime time
will be right in the middle. So we start off with Castro
interviewed by Blitzer at 5pm. Then Andrew Yang at 540 then
Kamala Harris at 6:20pm interviewed by Erin Burnett.
Then we get Amy Klobuchar. I can't believe she's still
around, she'll be at seven. Of course, Vice former Vice
President Joe Biden will be interviewed by pooper at 8pm
followed by Bernie also by pooper at 8:40pm. Then Elizabeth
Warren, interviewed by Chris Cuomo. What a bum rap that is at
920 followed by Mayor Pete that 10pm and Don Lamont will
interview Beto O'Rourke at 10:40pm Cyan Nora Beto and Cory
Booker at 11:20pm He barely He's barely on the same day. So it
looks like Joe and me
this is going to be five hours or how many hours it is seven or
seven, seven hours and no seven hours. One hour one hour long
interviews with the various candidates about climate change.
It looks like it's 40 minutes each time
well there'll be ads in there it'd be ad free is it
I think it will break for ads after each block I think I don't
know they have not mentioned this I'm not looking at a at the
spot card the rate card
this is a disaster
and notice Tulsi is not on the list that nor is
Marianne Williamson Marianne
Williamson yeah
both the Jade probably be more interesting than all of them
combined.
If you're making a show it sure would be and if you want some
different noise definitely
told actually Tulsi and Marianne Williamson Ruby to they get they
get ratings. These other people nobody wants to listen to any of
them. No, you're right gold blather on any Bernie you'll
probably get some numbers, but who else is gonna get numbers?
This is like a ratings nightmare. I can't believe we
got to look at the overnights on it when this happens because
it's gonna be it's a joke.
Yeah, I mean, who wants to watch anything for seven hours on a
Wednesday? Isn't there an NCIS or something on Wednesdays?
Gotta be on Tuesday. It's got to be some. There's a bunch of like
FBI. I think somebody's out these might be on Wednesday.
Seal Team I know is but there's really actually not a lot of
good programming on Wednesday, somebody but but still
well, you know, last night. I was surfing around and it's like
boom, the new Beverly Hills 90210 They brought it back. So
like clickety click. I'm like yeah, let's watch this. Within
seven seconds. The keeper go Was I can't watch this first go bad.
So I Okay, I'll just turn it off. Speaking of television, the
Video Music Awards, I don't know if you had a chance to see them.
Once again, MTV rolling out the Illuminati fest that it usually
is. And
divided. You're a bit you're an old empty. I hope people realise
this, but you're an old MTV alumnus. In fact, you wanted the
first V. J's and very popular in your era. Yes. And no, you were
invited to do it like a retrospective or
something. No, there was this little thing where I quit and
took mtv.com with me that they still kind of hate me. Oh, but
but they don't just hate me. In 1989, I was asked what it was
demanded of me that I give Michael Jackson, the video
Vanguard Music Award, which was an award, the music video which
had which had not existed prior to that. And it was a real
hassle because it had to be done LA and there's a whole bunch of
and I really didn't, I may want to go but I had some personal
stuff. And anyway, they they worked it out. And so I go there
and there's a famous video of me with Tom Freston and Michael
Jackson standing on an apple crate. So he's the guy six was
six feet tall. He was half a foot taller than me. But it's
very specifically the award was from then on, always to be named
the Michael Jackson video Vanguard Award. And in probably
because of the movie, the documentary, they decided to
just drop that they would not say it, it was not in any
announcement. It was not in any of the voiceovers. It was only
the video and went to what's your name? Missy. Missy Elliott,
and who deserved it. But she luckily she was nice. She
actually said, you know, I want to thank Michael Jackson. But it
was so lame of MTV. I mean, that was a deal then it was part of
an actual contract that it'd be named after him because they
wanted him to perform on the awards that year. So they broke
their contract I don't get I don't for anyone cares. So that
was severely disappointing. But man this the stage was in
triangles. There was all Oh, yeah, it was everywhere, and
that they brought out the high priests of the Illuminati John
Travolta and Queen Latifah as far as I know both at least kind
of gay. And in the Hollywood weirdness, I just said, Oh,
there they are. They're the high priests come on in and then they
showed a Doritos commercial where they didn't show the
actual chip,
which is that commercial? Yeah, the commercial it's all about
the triangle.
Yeah. And they should flash the all seeing I am sure it's funny,
but, but the thing that really got me is in one commercial
block. I saw an ad for the clear blue pregnancy test. Followed by
teen moms to it. You can't make it any crazier. Have you ever
seen teen moms know sad? It's the saddest show you've ever
seen. And then the in that comes right after a pregnancy test ad.
Is that going crazy over there?
It gets some creative sales guys. Well, everything's good,
John.
Everything was sponsored. Oh, here's the Jonas Brothers. Were
there Toyota ad it's you could see the meeting. Hey, what can
we do man? We could Jonas Brothers. We can get him to do
some photos for the brand. Let me think I know ultimate road
trip playlist from the Jonas Brothers. Great idea. I'll run
it by management. infantile it's what it is sometimes. When we
Brexit we had a little bit of action fine got
a bunch of clips oh good good good good good because it's
so quiet. Well, let's
catch people up. I think maybe this one clip will catch people
of which is that the Queen is agreed. What happened was a
Boris Johnson decided that he wanted he wanted to do this as
called prorogue. Yes. Shut down.
What is the what is the etymology of pro Rogue is the
word rogue a part of that?
I don't know pro look it up if you can find look up entomology
pro rogue I think it's just some old term that referred to shut
down but the idea is that we're coming up on her on Brexit in
October, end of October. So we're going to do is around
September 15. Shut Down parliament and Lea had shut down
until we just have a hard, hard Brexit.
Two weeks before two weeks before.
Well, yeah, actually the two weeks before should be time
enough but probably won't be two weeks before we had just enough
time to extend it. It's my Well it's my opinion on them. Yeah, I
have some thoughts but let's do you're stuck
here we have some thoughts. Well, let's see for you. I got a
debit number of clips, mostly from people moaning but let's
listen to NBC and their Brexit report tonight
the UK may be on the brink of a constitutional crisis. The Queen
has approved Prime Minister Boris Johnson's plan to suspend
parliament from early September to mid October, the surprise
move blasted by opposition lawmakers one calling it a coup.
They now have less time to debate Johnson's plan for a
Brexit divorce from the European Union by the October 31
deadline.
So there were some fake news that kind of went along with
this as people were immediately saying, Oh, this is a hijack.
And and this is not uncommon. Coup ashtag coup, Boris
Johnson's coup, but it's not uncommon for In fact, it's quite
normal for parliament to shut down just before the Queen's
speech, which is kind of the State of the Union. Only it was
and by the way, prorogue means basically prolong.
I'd looked it up. That's the that's the etymology of it. So
it's longer than it typically is. And what you just heard at
the beginning of that report that let me just play this
beginning here
tonight, the UK may be on the brink of a constitutional
crisis.
So about that constitutional crisis here is a channel for UK.
The reporters standing of course, on the grassy knoll
there in front of Parliament, listen to what he says
Brexit crisis is not entering uncharted waters in far
flexible, unwritten constitution. It just took the
Queen to give her consent, and it was done. Parliament will be
paroled or suspended,
flexible, unwritten constitution. This is not in
their constitution. They don't have a constitution. We got a
Magna Carta. So this was way back to this constitutionality
is bullcrap.
I think that was put in that phrase constitutional crisis
because it's something Americans can understand. Okay, and it's
something that Brits can understand too, because they
think that Trump is trying to take over the place. And bogus
fair and bogus blather. Bogus blather? Yes. There you go.
Do you have analysis of this?
I have a couple of guys on the street moaning and groaning
somewhat semi famous people. And this is off this little network
is little online network called Joe which is in the UK and it is
seems to be a pro EU mechanism of some sort. And getting this
you know they every time they have any news, a bunch of people
waving the hell with the British flag. We're waving the EU flag.
But let's listen to this one. This is a guy who's a who's a
baron. Baron Adonis used to be a member of
parliament. Wait a minute, that sounds like a no agenda. Bear in
name
is a great day. Yeah. He's here with his pal. He's no Adonis, I
might add, but he's there with his pal and they're bitching and
moaning to do to the man on the street report on the network,
Joe. And if
Brexit means no deal, you know, not enough medical supplies to
the country shortages of food, people not being able to get in
and out of the country, then there definitely needs to be
either an election or a referendum. It's a huge pity
this has happened because nobody wants to Queen dragged into
politics. She has to follow the advice of the government, but to
be prorogue in Parliament, which prevents parliament from meeting
at all, for five weeks during a national crisis is quite
unacceptable. Hillary and I've been in Parliament a long time
we've been ministers no way with the governments of which were
you a party of thought of offering advice like this to the
Queen. And it's keep creating a deep constitutional crisis,
which I think is only going to be resolved by Boris Johnson
backing down and allowing more time for parliament to debate
these crucial matters.
The referendum campaign much was made of taking back control I
think many people realise that meant taking back control for
the executive
or no one thought that because remember all the people who are
in favour of Brexit now told us there'll be a deal you know
indeed member for our said that Norway was a great place to be
well, Norway's much more elaborate deal and even the one
that Theresa May negotiated
for this is Norway nonsense.
No, no they do that is very desperate. Everyone's scared to
death and that's what they're promoting the second referendum
of course, I mean, they're gonna keep doing that. Now this other
guy's actually more interesting and this is the clip Paul Mason.
This guy was a BBC economics correspondent. This shows you
the kind of nature of the BBC being a stooge for the EU. And
that guy heads up something called a Europe now or something
like that some organisation which is promoting, you know,
Europe taking over the world, aka Germany. And he's comes on
and he's worse than this other guy. He's a and again, he's an
ex BBC correspondent, he's an economics, the economics guy.
And he just goes, he just goes off. I
think his lack of a popular mandate makes the decision to
parole even more suspects. It's not
even suspect it is. It's so clearly programme. As soon as
the MP said we're going to unite to stop you. He's pulling the
plug on parliament. It's it's a plan. Whose plan is it? It's the
plan of the elite. It's the plan of the billionaires behind
Trump. The dark money behind Nigel Farage, it's the plan is
being executed. And you know, I know many people just don't
would rather be doing something else. So would I? Yeah, it's
still somewhere in my head. But it's a times like this, that
your democracy can be stolen from under your nose.
Trump waded in today. What's your response to him saying
that Jeremy Trump is my response? Fuck Trump. For Trump
full stop, exclamation mark and the life the guy doesn't
understand democracy. What right is heated to dictate the outcome
of a British political crisis? But of course, that's what it
is. That whole design this for me, by the way, this is no
longer about Brexit, with or without Brexit, leave or remain.
The issue is, are we going to become a colony of Trumps
America? Who's our democracy?
That's fantastic. Yeah, it seems he was mentioned in the clip, I
have Nigel Farage, who, of course, is part of these
billionaires and the money billionaires behind him black
money? Well, he says something very different. Well,
here's the big dilemma. How do we leave the European Union on
the 31st of October? Do we leave with a clean break Brexit? Or do
we leave with the withdrawal agreement that Mrs. may put to
Parliament three times, and the three times rejected? And here's
my concern. Much is I think Boris has brought great optimism
and energy to the job, things that President Trump has
identified. It looks like he wants to go for an amended form
of that withdrawal agreement. And that would still leave us
very tied to EU rules. And would mean we could not do a trade
deal with the USA for several years to come. So I'm what I'm
doing as leader of the Brexit party is putting as much
pressure as I can on Boris to say, Come on, we've spent over
three years waiting to do this. Let's just get out with a clean
break Brexit and get on with our lives.
Actually, two clips, if you don't mind, I'll just play this,
about the same length where he actually talks about the
billionaire's
stop before you play it. The term clean break Brexit is
really a good term instead of hard Brexit.
clean break, it's a much friendlier
kind of read. They should change their nomenclature. I think
clean break is very positive. It sounds very positive. Sounds
good.
Well, that's what you want in any relationship. Yeah, we just,
we had a clean break. Yeah. What was the
hard break? Sounds difficult. Hard means?
It's meant to sound difficult. I'm sure someone laboured over
that term.
Yes. And they should change it to clean break if they're
Brexiteers. Let's
talk about what will happen after the break.
I spent 20 years working in financial markets before getting
involved in politics. And very often, you get short term
hysteria in markets. And it's always the old thing, isn't it?
You know, sell the rumour buy the facts. And I think frankly,
I think frankly, once the UK has left the European Union in a
clean way, I think foreign direct investment will flood
into the United Kingdom, because we'll be free of Greece, and
Italy and all these economies that are doing so badly and the
arguments against leaving are those from the status quo, those
from the big firms who were doing very well, thank you.
Lives always like that. You always get the big and the rich
one no change. Actually, the time has come. Not just
economically that change. But democratically. Why should my
country be run by unelected bureaucrats in Brussels?
I want to be free. Okay, he wants to be free.
I want to be free.
I want to play you free. Yeah, well, I still don't think it's
gonna happen by October 31.
What do you it's not gonna take time slice tomatoes. Yeah, it's
not gonna happen. It's not gonna happen. I don't think so either
because it hasn't happened yet. And they've put it off and put
it off and put it off and put it off. I mean, I like to see that
miss a bad time. We got this off the table but they just don't
want to do it. They they're afraid.
Well, you know, they're, they're using the wrong messaging and I
think that if you really don't want this to happen if you or
let's just say you don't want a clean break, or a no deal
Brexit, you know, this was on PBS. I was actually it was
written on PBS. I wish I had to clip it would have been funnier.
All across Europe, families and couples on vacation are
seamlessly crossing borders with their beloved dog, thanks to the
European Union pet passport scheme. Now, it was a no deal.
Brexit looms as a possibility for Britain, free travel is
under threat. That's right. Yeah, your pooch. If you want to
travel with your pooch, when you come back, you don't have to go
into six months quarantine. I mean, it's not really what will
happen in reality, but man, what a scary thing to use. They
should be hyping that it's great.
Was it Britain? Didn't the British always have restrictions
on bringing dogs into the country? Well,
if you recall, when we moved from New Jersey back to Europe,
we wanted to move to the UK directly. But we couldn't
because we had six pets, three dogs, three cats. Thank you very
much. So we had to be stay in what do you hate dogs, we had to
stay in an EU country for at least six months. Which was
great, because in the Netherlands, it was no problem.
And then we flew him over we actually flew over on a small
plane. My buddies flew us over. And the next day, Defra? I think
they're called where there was six cages here. We had to take
your animals away because you didn't declare them. I said,
Well, they've been in a European country for ya know, no, you
have to they have to be chipped, but they aren't shipped, will
you have to have the paperwork. And they they came back and they
were ready to put these animals in the cages. And I had had
called the actually was a doctor in Belgium. And I told him,
falsified that shit and send it over by fax right away. And he
did. Thank goodness. And so they were able to stay with the
because they all had the chip. But the passport scheme will
fall apart just like the regular passport scheme, I guess. I
don't know, we'll never see it because it's not going to
happen. I don't see this happening. For some reason I
just doesn't see like it will ever take place.
Well, if it does, the market is going to collapse.
All markets like the financial markets. Well,
I think it's gonna be temporary. But I think it's going to be
like one of those Flash Crash crashes. Yeah, because people
will go nuts. Oh, my God did actually happen. What are we
going to do? I don't know, I can't take a chance to get out
of my stock. So I'm gonna, I'm sure
that all the scenarios have been baked in and they're ready to
pull triggers at any.
Yeah, no, they're not. They are baked in because I think
everybody's got your attitude.
So it's not gonna happen. It's just not gonna happen. They're
gonna say no
happened. And so are they gonna have a redo, which is my mind is
still sticking with the redo. To do another election. I mean,
that's what your original thesis
Yes. Yep. Do over. Well, that's not the thesis. That's the
European way
is a difference. The EU wages beat you down.
So there's a controversy amongst Americans, Americans. And this
will then to some degree, I think anyone in another country
can follow along with the controversy. And this is the
Dave Chappelle special on Netflix. Which via it's just
been a phenomenal spectacle to view the feedback. I know you
saw it, because you posted about it on on the tweeters. Yeah. And
now Scott Adams, I think you in relation to that already. Maybe
you tagged him or something. This was not I disagree that
Scott Adams says one out of three people have no sense of
humour. While that's that might be true.
I think that numbers one out of four. Well, while that might be
true,
this was a dimensional problem. And a big one I in fact, I
viewed it in mixed dimension company. And it was very,
it was That's great. You had that opportunity. It was very
uncomfortable. I did too, because I watched it with with
Jays fiance, Nick and he's a millennial, a younger
millennial.
Did he like it? He loved it. Okay. Yeah. Well, you didn't
have a good mix of that. He's clearly not dimension B. I
didn't say age differences. I said mix dimensions. And I think
that's where the difference is. And I thought it was fantastic.
I laughed quite a lot watching it. It's not going to
deconstruct Dave Chappelle. But I do think there was a moment
that was just so beautiful in its in its simplicity it was a
great joke. And he set it up really well by completely
preparing you to such a degree that the audience actually just
shouted out their bias. Well here I'll play this for you this
is the the impressions that I feel kind of well he kind of got
the whole ball rolling where people got mad
tonight I'm gonna do something that I'm not particularly good
at. But that I like to do tonight I'm going to try some
impressions out
only got to the first impression is kind of dumb, but I like it.
This is my impression he read this my impression of the
founding fathers of America. When the Constitution was being
written, your kid goes hurry up and finish that constitution.
Nigger, I'm trying to get some sleep.
Now that's brilliant to set people up into a racist mindset.
You know, I found it to be extremely smart what he did
followed by this
Alright, the next one next one's a little harder. I want to see
if you can guess who it is. I'm doing an impression of Alright,
let me get into character. Yeah, guess who it is though. Okay,
here goes. Hey, if you do anything wrong, your life goal
and I find out about it. I'm going to try to take everything
away from you. And I don't care what I find out could be today,
tomorrow. 1520 years from now if I find out you're fucking
finished.
Who's that? That's you that's what the audience sounds like to
me while becoming outgoing comedy Oh, man, is the worst
I've ever tried to entertain in my life.
It was so beautiful that in isolated that one little bit in
the middle where he says Who do I sound like and you can hear
multiple people in the audience whose drive is drive is driving.
You
know, it's the number of people the honest has said Trump.
But I think I think that trick by setting you into a complete
racial mindset, just thinking about oh my god, those guys were
so racist. And of course, you're thinking about constitution.
You're thinking about presidents that so he's put that into your
mind. And he I think he made people think that and it worked.
And then he said no, but that's you. And I think that really was
a blow I think that really hurt some people's feelings as
possible.
And it was definitely heat. The reason I one of the things about
that particular been I've watched a lot of Chappelle. And
his comedy has always been unstructured. This was an
extremely structured act. It had a beginning a middle and and it
had callbacks along multiple callbacks, but the callback
Yeah. And it was structured way more than anything I've ever
seen him to do before, which is one of the reasons I kind of
liked it. And more than usual, I mean, other people's around
actually Iran or their gross, I mean a lot of people grousing
about it but I don't know Well,
well, there was two things got me off guard. There were two
things that I think really that here's what I heard from the
mixed dimension. He's transphobic everyone does
transfer he does and he did and I'm so proud of this show you
how many years we've been talking about what he calls the
alphabet people but we call LGBTQ Qi a PPK. And that they
don't get along that is not a community and so he took that
basic premise and he turned it into I thought a very funny joke
about driving and everybody in the in the alphabet car. But a
queue but the only thing the only thing I have heard and read
consistently is he's transphobic either trans probably did. And
because he did a mess with everybody including his own wife
but also his own celebrity and fame and his kids. I think that
and you posted a link to a review where the the reviewer
seems somewhat ups and the reviews are just you know, crazy
social justice warrior stuff. This Some particularly reviewer
was rather obsessed with how much money he has or how much
money he made. And, and I figured it out. It's because of
his privilege. But it doesn't compute to say, well, the black
man has white privilege, because that's basically what he has.
And so that came out in the wash is. He's rich. It was
unbelievable. Did you see the bonus footage? Did you know
there was 20 minutes of bonus footage?
I actually we killed it after that. So I have to go watch the
bonus footage, like in the next day or two.
So that so there was 20 minutes of bonus footage, which was an
Easter egg. You had to let it play all the way out. And then
it wasn't it looked like it was ending. You If you looked on the
timeline, but then it flipped to another playlist item. And that
was this 20 minutes right after his the same performance, I
think on Broadway. And he sat down, he talked to people. And
he had one story of how he was prepping for the for the comedy
for this particular show. And he was doing some smaller gigs. And
in one like 200 seater thing in San Francisco, just one woman
got really angry and read one of his jokes. And then that she's
leaving says, Well, I'm sorry, I got raped. You know, she was
really, really upset and crying and it kind of, you know, it
really put the whole place in a downer. Yes. But at the same
show. He said it was interesting that there was a trans woman
there and she was laughing and laughing. And he thought I mean,
I have the clip of him saying and if you want to hear maybe
he'll explain it better. Because there was something really
beautiful that came out of that which I think he would have been
better to put it in this full special
saying so there's a trans woman sitting in the audience. This is
true story. It was like a few weeks ago, I did six shows that
weekend. This trans woman came to four of them. calls herself
definitely, man this chick Devin was in there cracking the fuck
up. Everything I said about everybody. It was amazing. She
was laughing. And it was fun to watch her laugh. You can tell
she was letting go with something that was heavy. And
she thought ahead back and she smiled with all the tea. She was
having a great time. And the more fun she had. I felt bad
because I knew I had some trans jokes on low. And I thought to
myself, maybe I shouldn't say these jokes because I don't want
to like fuck her evening up. She was having so much fun. But then
I thought to myself, if I can't say in front of us, should I say
this shit at all. So I let her rip. Into my surprise, Daphne
lands harder the trans jokes than anybody in the room. In
fact, everybody in the room would look at her to make sure
it was okay
so now I go out of the dressing room and like you can see like
all the staff is there like cleaning the club of the
audience of God, and sitting at the bar by herself. Who's
Daphne. And she's like, Hey, Dane, come join me for a drink.
And I don't want to think that I'm transphobic. And then
someone forgot, I guess I could have at least drink. And we get
some tequila and was sitting there. And she was fucking cool.
Turns out in the data frame, she wants to be comedian. She's
asked me for advice. And I told her advice all this shit. And
then she says to me, she says, Boy, you should get a bad rap
for your trans jokes. As a Daphne, thank you. But you don't
have to say that. I hope I didn't offend you. She goes now.
No, no, no. She said In fact, I read about you in the New York
Times. I said you did. She said yeah, she said I thought it was
interesting that they blamed you for our Kelly. They send you
normalise them for telling jokes about it. I know. Yeah, they
said that. She doesn't wonder why they never said that she
normalised transgenders by telling jokes about us. tepid
applause and I've never thought about that. It never occurred to
me. And we started making out. And I
thought that was really a beautiful thing. And I bet it
happened just like that. But it's not I don't see trans
people up in arms yelling I see people who had who just can't
find any other group that is that they can call victims. Then
trans.
Yeah, this is the classic identity politics rash, which I
explained in an essay that was sent around
a lot of people like that. That was good. Yeah, it was very
good. It was a very good essay. You want to summarise or just
say hey, people go read it.
Well, it's no it's actually really something you need to
read because it stems from the thought that you've changed the
kind of a a Marxist concept of oppressed and oppressor into
various little groups where you always have a someone's being
oppressed and the oppressor we're boils down to the the
white male cisgendered white male is the maximum brasseries
oppressing everybody, and he must be, you know, dealt with
somehow by I don't know how you do anything about it, but it's
just very interesting to read.
Okay, yeah, well,
start there is horrible white males.
So yeah, I enjoy I have to go watch that. And her bonus
was was some good stuff in there some good stuff. Yeah. But
anyway, let's
get back to this thing that you were talking about, which is
that you had a dual audience who was in the audience that you
were watching it with? You watched it with, with one of the
kids?
Yeah. It's called the stepdaughter. stepdaughter?
Yeah. Yeah, she didn't find it funny.
How is How old is she? 22. So she's younger. She's kind of in
between or she's a young Oh, she's a younger millennial
millennial. Yeah.
And 22 in any humour in
the No, I don't think she thought it was very funny. And,
and she said, you know, he's, he comes across as very
transphobic. And, you know, we didn't really have any
conversation about it. But, and I was laughing and you know, I
didn't see any laughter and I felt bad. You know, it's like,
wow. Wow, what is that? And she has humour. She's not a
humourless person. That's just what what is what has happened.
And she hates black men.
No, I think also the no exposure
to by the way, the joke to which I just said, takes the
transgender complaining to another level.
Yeah. It's just trying to let that one go.
Was sorry, you weren't gonna get away with it?
Well, you know, I think that she may not have had any exposure to
this type of urban ish humour. Not even urban, just just
blatant in your face comedy, which, let's be honest, has kind
of been impossible for comics to do for the past. What? Five
years at least? No, no. 10 Well, there you go. That so it's, it's
a complete different differently formed funny bone.
And if you go and look into that guy who wrote that article in
patch, who hated the, the act? Yeah, he does describe his
favourite comic, which is again, Saturday Night Live. He does
extremely weird, dry comedy.
Do you see that? It shapes comedy? Interestingly, I watched
a little bit of that, and I didn't find it that funny.
I didn't find it funny at all. There was nothing. So that's
dimensionality. why
did why did he find that super funny? And why did we not non
threatening humour for starters. So that may have something to do
with it. It's very strange, that dimensionally, you should find
out whether your stepdaughter likes that guy.
Good idea. That's a good idea. Because it's interesting to
understand, or at least deconstruct and try and see what
the things are. You know, it's but I guess it right if it boils
right down to it. If Dave Chappelle were white, this show
would not be on Netflix ever in a million years. I think that's
the bottom line. So it comes down to some convinced of that
who I am. That's why he gets on the stage is because he's a
member of an oppressed group. You see.
Yeah, as you said, you see, I know I was using that on
purpose. I would say yeah, I've seen other acts that are pretty,
pretty, pretty. Pretty out there. on Netflix, okay.
Well, anyway, I find it
interesting little. That's a segue. That's a new segment of
the show entertainment reviewing
Yes, inter inter dimensional. So instead of intersectionality, we
need inter dimensionality we demand more inter dimensionality
in our country.
was definitely educational.
The Dave Chappelle special was educational. No, it wasn't.
Yeah, I think so.
I didn't clip it but I was watching succession on HBO. HBO
Yeah. You know, the show succession.
Is that the one with what's his name?
It's kind of like a Murdoch family and ended the two
sometimes they get into one where the President got Gildan A
No, no, no, no, no, this
is this is a very, very good series. I like it a lot. It's
the second season. And it's it's a family. It's modelled after
the Murdochs. And the wolves, the family that used to own the
The New York Times. Souls burgers? Yes, yes. And you know,
they're, it's really deep. But anyway, in that show, I heard
the phrase, pump the brakes. And I was, and that was Sunday,
right after you set it on the show. I'm like, holy crap. Pump
the brakes. There it is first sighting in the wild.
Well, you may have just missed it before. Well, a lot of these
things happened to me. And maybe it happens to everybody. But you
we bring out a phrase that we we find offensive. And then you
said, Well, I've never heard that before, when in fact,
you've heard it over and over again, you just haven't noticed
it?
Well, that's possible. And this, of course, is what the no agenda
show does to a lot of people. It's like all of a sudden, it's
like having a 10 speed bike. You see all those bikes driving
around. Oh, yeah. never noticed that before. You never noticed
that before? You don't? Yeah. Or you start looking for Priuses.
First time, I used to have a game I used to play with my
daughters. I would make a guess on how many Priuses from going
from the house to a store. Just about a mile maybe? How many
Priuses? We'd see on the way.
I think I remember you talking about this on the show, like
hundreds of them. Well, as speaking of things you notice
when you're looking for him, the unhoused in Austin, Texas have
increased their visibility dramatically since the city
ordinance changed. This has been it has been about six weeks. And
of course we remember our mayor Adler who said that, well, what
are you worried about? We'll take a look and six weeks and
before the six weeks were up, they were already talking about
maybe changing something to day 6pm to 8pm. But LGL LBJ
auditorium, I think as a huge Townhall. The university is very
pissed off because they do not want camping on the perimeter of
the campus, which is now allowed and a students are being
harassed who are coming on campus. But we have a lot of
reports from Austin, I only want to share to our main drag in
Austin is Congress Avenue. It goes straight up to the Capitol,
you see the Capitol right there in front of you beautiful
building Extra Large sidewalks. And as we've discussed
previously, you're now allowed to camp on the sidewalk. One of
my favourite shops, which we talked about on the show before
is royal blue grocer. It's the downtown grocery store. They
overcharge on a lot of stuff, because of course, you can just
walk to it, particularly alcoholic beverages. So they're
pure rip off. But it's a it's a high end grocery store where you
can get prepackaged stuff, and no, not really anything to cook,
but some produce and just, it's for rich people. So they are
typically open until midnight. And they are now thinking of
closing down at 6pm. With
change comes issues.
We just We consider ourselves a compact urban market. We're a
little different than a convenience store. We're also
not a full size grocery store. We kind of fit in the middle
Craig Staley is all too familiar with the issues of the change in
homelessness ordinances. Hello. So to store oil blue grocery,
we're talking
about the challenges of operating a business on Congress
Avenue with changes to the ordinances, we're really feeling
a big difference down here. We have a lot of sympathy for the
people that live out here. And we take care of a lot of them,
who we feed them in our stores, they come in with money and buy
things from us. 11, seven, eight is your total. Thank you. The
changes and the things that are happening down here are having
us consider closing at 6pm Every night so we don't have to deal
with what's going on in the evenings. Because it gets pretty
rough down here. We'll have folks to take something from our
store and argue with us on the way out the door right here. And
that's a big change. wasn't always like that. And we have a
pretty seasoned staff that works. The night shifts here.
Yeah, there's a specific crew that works here at night when
they're coming to us telling us I no longer feel safe. Oh, yeah,
definitely. That's that's a big cause of concern for us.
Well, they're staying open right now till midnight. Unless
something changes outside the store. It'll solve the issue
himself.
I don't got to address that sooner than later because it's
it's affecting our business.
So there's crime. There's fighting their stabbings amongst
the homeless themselves. And I know that you saw the the tweet
from Austin Skid Row at Austin Skid Row and They showed this
whole perimeter of tents in downtown Austin, I just wanted
to explain what's going on there because it very interesting.
This is right by the arch that is the Austin Resource Centre
for the homeless. It is the only shelter that we have at the
moment in in Austin, downtown Austin. And they have, you know,
your typical shelter facilities inside. And this is run by a
nonprofit and I get lots of money and they have lots of
people who serve their clients. But the people on the outside
are there for a reason.
It's a small gesture to begin to break down the walls, keeping
dozens of homeless people from seeking services at the Austin
Resource Centre for the homeless,
with just the number of individuals that we're seeing on
the outside and the folks who have been here for a long
periods of time that we've got a situation that soon couldn't get
a lot bigger
inside beds, food, laundry, showers, case management and a
cold place to relax outside, ever growing chaos.
Even with mounting safety concerns about 80% of people
living on the outside of the building never go in.
And that's not because we're at capacity or turning anybody
away. It's just a choice to not come in.
Greg McCormack, Executive Director of front steps, the
nonprofit that runs the arch says building a new shelter in
South Austin likely won't make a dent here,
I think it's great, another 100 beds will really help. I don't
think from my engagement of the individuals outside the arch,
that many of those individuals outside will go to that shelter.
McCormick says he finds many people living outside the arch
have developed their own community there. And after years
in the elements, they're more comfortable here, that they're
going to go inside somewhere that we need more shelter space.
If they are not going to go inside somewhere, then we have
to look at other solutions. I think that those solutions are
going to have to be outside
Tuesday, Austin Mayor Steve Adler proposed placing camping
restrictions on certain busy streets and at specific
locations. The Arch was one of them.
That's an unsafe place. So it is something that I think needs to
be a relatively high priority. To the degree that we don't let
people sit and lie near the arch. But we haven't provided
homes or places for them to go. Then all we're doing is moving
people from one place to another place
in June city council asked the city manager to consider at
least 10 locations, one in each council district that would
allow camping,
what the manager came back and said is let's let's focus on
getting housing all over the city rather than focusing on an
open camping area.
So this is a disaster. People don't know, they showed the
inside of the shelter and it looks kind of like rule. Yes. It
looks like submarine births. Yeah, I wouldn't want to be in
there either. It's dangerous. We all know that housing shelters
can be very dangerous, particularly for women. But
these people really want to be on the street for a number of
reasons. One is that's where the drugs are now, and so they want
to camp around where the drugs are, and where they're and where
they're allowed to. And it's I don't know what's going to
happen today. But it would be quite sad. If they just
continued to roll on this. Will we have to make affordable
housing. It'll take years, but they haven't built anything.
It'll take years before they build something after they've
appropriated land, etc.
And then well, a big football field where everyone's allowed
to go.
You can only imagine the chaos that that will create town.
Yeah. Well, I mean, I could say the same for San Francisco, or
Los Angeles.
That's what I've been saying. And the worst I guess is gave an
even worse in Los Angeles where the population of the homeless
has increased to such an extreme. Ever since it became
you. It was noted as a problem. I think it's up to almost 60,000
people. I have a clip I Mazal play it. There's a woman
bitching about the homeless living right across the street
from her and in a pretty good neighbourhood.
What am I looking for here? Woman? Oh, woman.
I have a huge rat's nest right across the street from where I
live where there's a homeless homeless encampment. I can't
shop downtown I literally get sick. I actually have a cold
right now because I was across the street talking to a homeless
woman for about a half an hour and I'm literally like I'm, I
feel ill after just talking to her because I was surrounded by
trash and rats and faecal matter and urine
waiting on the street from where you live.
I think that this misplaced compassion is Here's the
problem. You. I hate to say it, but you do need to stigmatise
homelessness. People need to feel like they have to pull
themselves up out of something. And if they have substance abuse
issues, which I think is a massive factor. The doctor I
talked to Dr. Drew says so so why not? But and he does have
experience with substance abuse. We've got to do something other
than Well, blew the room. Because now, people who are who
are housed are running into trouble. You want to change
something with your shed, you can go get 14 permits. Maybe you
want to camp right to write to Congress. Go ahead, do whatever
you want,
and poop on the streets while you're at it. We
had our first pooping video go viral from Austin on the corner.
It's actually got a note from Sir Mark Hall. He's thinking
about telling
you I'm telling you, San Francisco leads the way
it's true. You guys are always on the leading tip of popular
culture. Yep, Sir Mark Hall said that he's thinking of starting a
nonprofit. He wants to call it Austin poop action. And the
first thing the nonprofit will do is hold a public poop in at
city hall and I am in Jena poop. Now we're gonna get the guy from
build the dome to lead the movement. Of course we'll have
him poop. I'm not going to poop. But I think it's this is it's
really, really, really sad. But I have hope for Austin because
people are really pushing back. Particularly downtown, but it's
everywhere, John
it but it's pushing back so much on the West Coast. I mean, of
course, Austin did welcome the homeless with open arms. Like
like idiots. Of course, we'd like idiots. And so they were
homeless deserve to go there because they're going to be
welcomed with open arms. And that's not happening here. But
at the same time, they're not doing anything about it. Besides
hiring more people to clean up poop. Human poop on the streets.
They
got a team of what like seven. It's almost more than that now.
And Los Angeles. Apparently it's worse because in that port, but
the woman's pitch in Amman, it turns out that this part of
excuse me a bigger report work because LA's got different
climate than up here we're pretty moist. And so the poop
stays in a in a non friable for a long time,
it was notable but not fry,
but the poop in in the LA basin. It's a hotter down there and the
poop will dry out and then powder and turn into dust. And
then all the pathogens and everything and they fly around
the air and you breathe it and that's what this woman is sick,
she says just from being around it because there's poop
everywhere in rats is the other thing. That's a problem, which
is the rodent infestation, which is taking place in Los Angeles.
And I'm sure it'll be a problem in it because rodents say you
know, as far as they're concerned, this is great.
This is NPR with poop talk. Jhansi Dvorak and Adam curry
discuss faeces.
Yeah, so there you have it. Yeah,
well. Everyone's got problems. The Amsterdam is out of control.
They used to have not with homelessness. But with tourists.
They used to have a Bureau of tourism. Sure. It has been major
tourist attractions do Oh, it has been renamed bureau of
tourism management, they are turning people away. They are
trying to because it is over full. It's become some kind of
playground. You know, everything is shut down throughout all of
Europe. Really all the fun is gone. And Amsterdam which never
legalised marijuana. It's harder and harder to buy it in the
coffee shops because once you die or you sell the coffee shop,
it can never be a coffee shop again. So that's diminished. The
red light this shop
is is the moniker for a pot shop.
Yes, I'm sorry. The red light district has been almost
shuttered. They have one street left and now they want to even
close the curtains. It was it was a fun tourist attraction but
it was what you get is tourists coming in drinking too much
eating the brownie smoking the weed puking and everyone's plant
holders peeing in mailboxes making a general nuisance that
we lived there in in 2000. And it was already a problem. It is
just out of control. So this stuff going on or maybe it just
have too many people. Maybe it AOC is onto something less
people maybe tourism's out mass immigration is in it's the way
of the world everybody and we that I'd like to thank you for
your courage and say in the morning to you the man who put
the C and unwritten constitution John C. Devorah.
Well in the morning to you Mr. Adam curry in the morning all
the boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water. And
all the names tonight's out there Hey, trolls
in the morning to y'all Good to see you all there in the troll
room. No agenda stream.com incredibly important element of
our show, I would say it feels so good to be live and have live
feedback, something that even you could barely even get back
in the radio days unless you had someone call in as Cutter 100
gear you'd have a continuous roll of people calling us names
and saying I happy now we lost in here. But you think of Austin
has a new San Francisco. Thank you. That's what we're talking
about. So they're trolling. And it's good because it keeps me on
my toes. And it's something gives me a little cannon and a
little aggravation from time to time, which is it is
appreciated. Especially during the Dave Chappelle segment.
quite embarrassing. I hope there's no log, no agenda
stream.com You cannot listen to our show. But 24 hours a day,
seven days a week there's something going on, you can join
fellow trolls and have a troll fest. Also, I'd like to say in
the morning to the artists for episode 1167 this is Darren
O'Neill. And let me see you we had a hard time I recall and go
back to the Art Generator no agenda art generator.com There
was a lot of what did we have? No, we actually had almost
nothing.
We have a couple of pieces I like to do Yeah, but not like
the Darren O'Neal piece and I liked one other piece on there.
I can't remember.
Yeah, it was unusable. It was the get slogan here was the
bumper stickers. The Chinese bumper stickers.
No that wasn't it. No, you're gonna have to make me do work.
And yet sorry. Let me see what you would have.
I think that was the one there now.
What was the one? That was no that was there was very little
there. And I remember like
the taco truck Yep. Okay, and that's I liked the taco truck
and I liked the no agenda University of those two I liked
you said that taco truck was no good and it was you and then you
said you'd like to the other one either. And then it turned out
we couldn't find anything else. And so you've felt with due to
fall back on the no agenda University sweatshirt, which by
the way, just Darren O'Neal is selling that sweatshirt.
Yes. I was going to mention that. Where is he selling that?
On Teespring I think let me just double check. I got a whole page
I'll put the I'll put the link in the show notes.
It's I liked your because it did refer to the Adrian Peterson
Adrian Peterson I knew they this has happened before. Jordan
Peterson's apparent starting of a university is some sort of a
gimmick. I don't know what he's up to.
Well, it's teespring.com/no agenda University and I see here
rush shipping available. Thank you very much
that he sold any to Rush Limbaugh HeZI.
Thank you very much, Darren, oh, for your support of the show.
This is always appreciated, because we know that people are
doing this during the show and have only a chance of getting
chosen. So anyone doing that is is a hero in my book. And it's
part of our value for value network where you provide value
for the value you've received. It's up to you how much it is
what it is how you deliver it. We certainly appreciate this
kind of work and also our executive producers and
Associate Executive producers who we shall thank right now.

the spreadsheet. We're going to start with now this is a name I

Michigan. I've had bad luck in the past month between my hand
tremors due to a new migraine medication and then keep
injuring my hand the first day back after a lovely two week
vacation. Thankfully, both the migraines and the hand issues
are resolved. I could use some goat karma as insurance for my
hands as I'm ready for my first solo exhibition. What is it do?
It's an artist? I'm not sure also can you? Can you shoot me
an invite to no agenda social? Oh, I shot Adam an email
yesterday after being suspended from Twitter when I tried to
send him a link to an interesting article about the
censorship of the Tiananmen Square Foot photograph on Reddit
Yeah, that was a banned photo for a little bit there and read
it reinstated it because it's it's dangerous for your health.
Now you're talking about the photo the kid standing in front
of the tank
no the photo after the tank rolled over the kids. You ever
seen that one? It's probably about 1819 people some of them
chopped in half by the tank lay in there. It's not a very it's
not very detailed. Or you can zoom in Bruce okay. It's
gruesome Yeah, so that would be against Twitter's says health

somebody I keep reporting PMI report Rob Reiner all the time
for hate speech. And and so it he's he's a mu and apparently
his number people they did whitelist them and like you

comes in next from Lake Park, Washington during the $33 JC D
has note let's see here. Fiddler fiddler. Here it is. Now this is
a handwritten note and it's quite long. And it's written in
a handwriting that looks a lot like Matt groaning he does put
the jingle request at the beginning Obama 18 is SpaceForce
and pew pew. So there you have it. Okay. I am happy to announce
that this donation will allow me to finally join the illustrious
roundtable of Knights and Dames. You might as well see if he's on
the list. I don't know. I was first hitting the mouth on show
666 was spending two months in Turkey. Uh huh. You had been
discussing Gulin and my friend wanted to bring more information
to light I started sharing asking questions and was
reportedly asked if I was CI A. I knew right away I'd found the
podcast for me.
What was the third jingle we had to do you America pew pew and
what was the third one? SpaceForce Oh SpaceForce god,
okay.
That which was the second one in the list. This was a couple of
years before the coup and the rest of the world started
hearing his name. That's when I realised that Adam was from the
future in 2015 when the migrant caravan started marching across
Europe. I remember Adam stating that this would be the end of
the EU. Once again, future Adam was correct. As we continue to
watch the EU slowly implode? Well, I often don't agree with
many of your positions. I don't think people need to say that
because to do it's kind of what I don't even agree with Adam.
I mean, I don't agree with my wife sometimes. I mean, yeah.
Why do people kind of you know what it is? It's a kind of hedge
virtue signal, I'm convinced is to say I listen to those guys.
Of course, I don't agree with everything they say.
Yeah, you're right. That's exactly that's bad debt. You
don't have to say another word. That's exactly what it is so
stuck, so people stopped doing it. I love that you challenge us
to think about research topics, research topics, and not just be
spoon fed information from the media and society at large. Your
Podcast helped me to call BS on my friends in both universes
Keep up the good work work. One small complaint though. Oh, here
we go.
Small small complaint. small complaint?
Yeah. Eight or 10 episodes back You did what you said you would
never know you opened up the alternate universe machine as
part of the end of the show MCS and just left us there. I did. I
don't remember that either. That and the fact that you do the
show twice a week on Thursdays has me a little messed up
lately.
It says please go to church on Wednesday something's wrong
so if he's on the list this should should be knighted as Sir
ik Abad of the bike path Gorbel
Yes, he is on the list. This is the good news and mortar read no
sorry.
It would be a diss I know is not on the list. It would be
appreciated if Adam could please make sure that there are extra
helpings of bong hits and bourbon at the roundtable as I
have never been able to develop the taste for mutton in Mead
you got an extra hit extra extra bong hits some bourbon at the
table I'll take care of that. And I would like to say that
although I sometimes don't agree with my beautiful wife I soon
see the error of my ways sorry yeah when I when I don't agree
with her I soon see the error of my ways.
I'll bet you do.
Remember candles bathtub can be careful.
Anyway, he says he's in Seattle although is this was Lake Forest
on this on the spreadsheet? I'm worried well, does he need the
pew pew in this stuff? Nevermind.
There's a need for a rescue mission. When the world is
threatened. The world needs help the calls on America and that's
the story karma

Onward till our last Associate Executive Producer, another
anonymous person anonymous from Parts Unknown. Your pod fathers
please send good vibes and play an F cancer from my cousin
Heidi. She was recently diagnosed with stage four cancer
and her spine and brain. She's only 39 and an amazing middle
school science teacher who constantly wins national awards,
including from Neil deGrasse Tyson. Oh, Ilan. Every year, she
takes her gifted students to tour NASA she's just started a
treatment this week. She's not a listener, but I hope our
intentions will reach her. She truly has a lot to give the
world and we don't want to lose her early to this disease. F
cancer. Thank you for your courage PS John. Great write up
on wealth tax.
Yes. And of course we have an F cancer for her and you never
give up. You always continue to fight against it. And that's why
we all wholeheartedly say
you've got karma
and that is our list of Associate Executive producers
and executive producers for show 1168 All
right, thank you execs and associate execs it is
appreciated as always. It's the only way this system you know,
is crazy. You know, I tried to teach this Dutch guy at Ober
Gen. So it was talked about a big famous TV guy, and he
started doing a podcast, and his podcast really took off. And now
he's back. He's like, I'm gonna, I'm gonna start doing daily now.
And I'm still gonna do stuff on video at the same time. And I'm
gonna have sponsors like what are you doing? Ah, this is the
only way to go.
Well, there's a thing called overextending yourself. And you
have if you're not in a system, like for example, I think
there's a number of people on a TV and radio that do A lot of
radio work they do a daily show like Rush Limbaugh would be a
guy who does a daily show. But the better example is Sean
Hannity. He does three hours of radio a day, every day, except
the weekends and then he does a one hour TV show at night. You
know what he sounds like one of us.
It sounds like a robot. I
know, I couldn't do anything like this. But it's, but he's in
a system.
He's in a system, but it's also boring. It's a boring system.
He's just a robot. And it's it's boring, because you have to fill
three hours a day on radio, and then you carry that stuff over
into socks. He's no, I can't watch him. Yeah, can't Well, I
watched Tucker Carlson. I got to talk about that right after we
thank everybody once again, and know that these credits, these
executive producer credits, Associate Executive producer
credits, no different than the credits you saw on the Dave
Chappelle Show special, exactly the same IT people who help help
the show, in this case you finance it, and that is highly
appreciated. And I look forward to thanking more people in our
second segment, and you can always support us for the Sunday
show. It falls on the second Thursday of the week by going to
vote.org/and A Yes,
you too can astound your friends and family with your knowledge
of Dave Chappelle just propagate is this. We go out, we hit
people in the mouth.
So I'm watching Fox News. I watch typically I watch. Well, I
usually watch MSNBC during the day. And when I say watch, that
means I have it streaming on my hearing aids. So I can walk
around the house and do things and you know, but then I can
always look over and see what's going on. Wow. Yeah, but I have
no, it's what it's what we do. It's what I do. You have to
monitor this stuff and understand where people are
coming from. I will switch I switch over to CNN a little bit
more often these days because MSNBC, you might just call it
election TV, they have nothing else but election stuff. CNN
does the same. But the breakaway, let's take a look at
Brexit for a second. So at least had the idea that if something
horrible happened, and I'll hear about it, and Fox, I might watch
the five for a second in the afternoon to see who's in the
leg seat. And who's in the Democrat seat. Which is
surprisingly often is Donna Brazil, which is a head
scratcher in general. And then I like to watch Tucker Carlson
because he has some interesting guests on but last night, holy
crap, he did something which really pissed and actually
scratch that. He always does stories about marijuana that
make me angry, and not so much the content of the story, but he
has the same damn file footage than I've bitched about it
before you see close up in little box in the screen in the
corner. While here the guest is talking. You see some guy with
these nasty yellow fungus ridden nails rolling up a joint A
shittiest joint you've ever seen. It burns holes halfway
down. Then the guy licks his fingers with a big saliva drop
and like trying to stop the burning. That is not how you
consume the holy herb. He took it one step further yesterday
brought on an incredible narc wrote a book about the topic.
And to me it was like, I'm sorry, this is nuts
in the aftermath of the mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton
the country scrambled justifiably to understand what
might have motivated the killers. Ideology seemed like an
obvious reason. And we we pick that apart at some length. But
could it just be part of the answer? A toxicology report on
the Dayton shooter, for example, revealed that he had several
drugs in his system, including cocaine and Xanax was also known
to be a longtime user of marijuana.
Now, again, the Tucker is for some reason, very anti
marijuana. You just heard him set this up by saying he's also
known to be a longtime user of marijuana, if he's a heavy user,
whatever his exact words were, that should stays in your system
for a couple of days. So if you're a heavy user, and I will
freely admit I'm a I've been a regular users since I was 15,
which was actually too young I'll be also be the first to
admit you really shouldn't be smoking that stuff where your
brain still developing, but to say, oh, alcohol, Xanax cocaine,
also known to have weed, okay, well, there was nothing in the
toxicology report about it. So as far as I'm concerned, it's
bogus, for
example, revealed that he had several drugs in his system,
including cocaine and Xanax was also known to be a longtime user
of marijuana. It turns out in fact that many violent
individuals have been avid marijuana users.
Yes, no, I probably would have because I got to zone out
sometimes on some of these clips. And I'm glad you stopped
it to point out the obvious paucity of what's going on here.
This report has nothing to do with marijuana. He throws it in
as an afterthought. And then he makes it the topic of
conversation. This is the cheapest trick. And by the way,
I want to point out to people that because I get these notes
where these guys you know, they date you'd like to deconstruct
media, but they never deconstruct conservative media.
Usually, because it's so stupid. This is
the dumbest. Cheapest, crappiest trick. Oh, see, I've heard for
quite a while. And I'm wondering, before you continue,
I want to mention that Tucker is in the O'Reilly spot, which has
always been the anti marijuana hour. Why? I don't know you
might as well ask somebody at Fox because this appears to me
now and that you brought this up that this has more to do with
the anti marijuana hour which is That's That's exact same time
slot that Tucker's in that debt O'Reilly was in and I don't know
why but that's the fact but this is bullshit this report
well, it gets worse and I do want you to hear the narc speak.
And I just want to again reiterate I have standing in
this area and I am certainly not an advocate of if you're under
eight slurring use
the word knowledge instead of standing please. But I use
overusing the word standing when I think knowledge is a better
word term and it's standing really to me Mises legal.
You are the one that started the whole I have standing on this on
this very shows.
I am remiss, I will never say it again. Instead
of remiss, we please say I'm wrong. I have knowledge of this
being a marijuana smoker. From the early days of when I was 15.
In the Netherlands, I didn't smoke a lot. But by the time I
was 17, on the weekends, definitely. And in my adult
life. There's many years I didn't smoke at all,
particularly my daughter was just born, but I pretty much
been smoking every single day for the last 30 years. Almost 25
Maybe. And um, you know, so maybe it's three a day and it
depends depends on what the day is what I got to do. Very
functional. I don't think I'm a violent person. I do not have a
history of violence. Yet I maybe I'm just one of the lucky ones.
So
individuals have been avid marijuana.
I've never heard that associated except in Jamaica, where they
smoked the ganja. I've never heard association of marijuana
with violence.
Here it comes. There's a book about it. The narc
in a system, including cocaine and Xanax was also known to be a
longtime user of marijuana. It turns out in fact that many
violent individuals have been avid marijuana users. Is there a
connection? Well experienced knows more about this subject
than almost in North America as a former New York Times reporter
and author of the fantastic book tell your children the truth
about marijuana mental illness and violence. What what is we
don't want to jump to any conclusions are not supported by
evidence, of course.
The whole intro was was jumping to conclusions without any
evidence.
But what is the evidence that connects marijuana use to
violence?
So we know that a large number of us in the wake of of the
Dayton killer and the information that came out about
him being you know, having signs of mental illness and possibly
being diagnosed with bipolar disorder, a lot of people said,
you know, a lot of people in the media, well, many people in the
media said, Well, there's no connection between mental
illness and violence, there's no real connection, people with
mental illness are not really more likely to be violent than
the rest of the population. That is not true. But if you're
talking about people with severe mental illness, people with
psychosis, people with schizophrenia, right? Those
illnesses, unfortunately, are highly linked to violence. So
the best studies, which really come out of Europe show that as
many as 20% of people who commit homicides have diagnosable
psychotic disorders. And that appears to be the case in the US
too. So we so we know that mental illness accounts for an
appreciable amount of the extreme violence in in not just
in the United States, but all over the world. And we also know
that cannabis can produce psychosis drugs in general can
produce psychosis, but cannabis specifically can produce
psychosis.
So that I mean, I don't think it's going way out on a limb to
draw the connection then yes, it is used particularly as some
chronic use and acts of violence.
I mean, what the heck, because marijuana is known to create
psychosis and it is a Young Children definitely. But that's
the connection. It's not hard to make the connection between mass
shooters and marijuana police. I think if anything, he's trying
to get drug companies to advertise on the show. Again,
this is despicable. But why don't you talk about what the
drug companies are doing, by the way, no report about Johnson and
Johnson on Tucker show no report about the Purdue pharma on
Tucker show. No, no, no. Let's blame mass shooting on
marijuana.
That's pretty bad.
I think it's unforgivable. It is. Okay. It's the holy herb we
my voice skipped on that.
Actually has to
Yeah, so gosh, golly gee,
golly gee whiz.
Golly gee whiz people stop that. Anyway.
That's very you should I tell I'll make you feel better. Give
him a douchebag Yeah.
Give him a double one for each I'm not Yeah, gosh, oh my gosh,
golly, gee.
Ah, so I have an ISO to talking about these online guys. I was
going to take a piece of this thing, but it's so stupid. I
just took the ISO huh? This is Lawrence O'Donnell.
The President is a raving lunatic.
No contest. It's already in the last slot on the lineup. It's
good to go. Yeah, that was that was quite a fun little little
escapade there, where the he and Rachel Maddow were talking about
Deutsche Bank having loans to Trump with Russian oligarchs,
his co signers, if true, they brought back the old if true.
And what did some Trump's person one of Trump's personal lawyers
that you got to apologise any day? Oh my goodness.
I dug up from I took this from actually I took this from one of
the one of the Alex Jones Show they dug it up. Not Alex Jones,
his struggle one of these other spin offs, he's got a bunch of
them. And this is the this is from Twitch actually says Trump
2016. But this is actually from 2015. This is Trump talking
about not getting flu shots on the opion whatever show it is on
XM, Sirius XM. Alright. Oh, do you get the flu shot every year?
No. Why? I don't know. I've never had one. And thus far I've
never had the flu. I don't like the idea of ingesting bad stuff
into your body. You've which is basically what they do. And I
guess this one has not been very effective to start off with but
the last one but I've never had a flu shot and I've never had
the flu. I've been a knock on wood wisdom, whatever. How is it
that you've never had the flu with all the business you've
done over the years? You're always shaking hands. I am
shaking hands and I just don't understand it myself. But I have
friends that religiously get the flu shot and then they get the
flu. You know, that helps my thinking because I say why am I
doing this? And then I've seen a lot of reports that the last flu
shot is virtually totally ineffective. I've passed on it
but that doesn't mean people
I know how he's gonna get the throw. You're a healthy guy. And
I bet when those flu germs show up you go Yeah, fired.
Fired. Right, man, I can't believe people like those guys
so much.
I never heard him so I don't know. Like
unfortunately, I don't have a recent clip of the President
saying how important vaccines are I didn't say flu vaccine.
That'd be great buddies. Oh, yeah, backs. Gotta haven't got
to do them. Well, I do have an update from the CDC. We're in
big trouble when it comes to measles. I did I see earlier in
this week. Breaking news breaking news. Woman at concert
has measles. It was breaking news who hasn't measles, but
some woman I think it was a concert or a concert or
conference. And she had measles. And it was breaking news.
Breaking news because she was in the midst of a lot of people and
she might have infected them with the evil measles. The evil
measles so you know we got to blame. So we got to blame this
measles stuff on somebody. Evil Misal. We got to blame it on
somebody who should we blame the measles out and not just the
outbreak but we're about to get delisted as a country. This is
how bad it is. diseases such as measles mumps and rubella.
blaming it on all night Can you hear it? I've only have one
channel is crap piece of shit.
No, I'm not hearing anything.
You didn't hear anything at all. Oh my goodness. This is such a
great clip. Let me see if I'm to reboot. Well, no, it's the
stream heard it, but you're not hearing it. Well just bear with
me for a second at the beginning is not that important, you may
hear the next. diseases such as measles, mumps and
rubella are at an all time low.
so low that in the year 2000, the World Health Organisation
declared that rice was eliminated in the United States.
Now CNN is first to report that the US Centres for Disease
Control and Prevention says there's a quote reasonable
chance that the US will lose its measles elimination status as
early as October 1.
Either way, this is some idiot who produced this CNN report
this television report, where they did the voiceover on the
left channel and everything else on the right channel. Who does
that anymore?
Dr. William Schaffner is a longtime adviser to the CDC on
vaccine issues.
Losing the elimination status of measles is an umbrella you
can't hear okay. It's no fun if you can't hear that now. Anyway,
he blames it on the Jews. That's that's the punchline was Yeah,
on the on the Orthodox Jews in New York who refused. I saw who
refused to get the vaccinated. Yeah, that's their fault. Pretty
lame, man. Anyway, so we're in danger of losing our measle free
measles eradicated status on the world stage. I'm not quite sure
what. That is an embarrassment. To who to the country.
I didn't even know it existed.
I don't know which I don't know which body does this. I'm sorry.
That clip is the unhireable for you. Very interesting that they
did that
should have monitored it before you Yeah, I
didn't catch it. I didn't catch it. I didn't catch I would have.
I was dealing with the Microsoft Monday. Okay, tell you.
So it was something else that we're talking about disease.
Let's go to the mosquito report. Oh, boy. Now what
more than a pest tonight some mosquitoes from the Midwest to
the East Coast are carrying a virus that can kill people in
days, spreading across wet warm regions where mosquitoes thrive.
Eastern Equine Encephalitis or tripoli is being detected at an
alarming rate.
Her brain is trying to heal itself and she can't do anything
until that happens.
14 year old Savannah DeHart is one of three suspected cases in
Michigan. That's
probably the worst time of my life. I watched my daughter
almost checkout
while extremely rare, triple E is incredibly deadly a mortality
rate of 30%. With no vaccine the virus targets the central
nervous system, causing swelling of the brain. mother and wife
Laurie Sylvia died over the weekend. The fourth confirmed
case of Tripoli in Massachusetts
This is one of the most deadly mosquito borne infections with
nearly
30 communities now at critical risk in the state. Tonight
health officials are warning residents in parts of New
Jersey, Michigan and Massachusetts to avoid outdoor
activity during dusk and dawn. The heightened concern comes
just before the holiday weekend as many flocked to the outdoors.
The advice is simple. Use bug spray with deep on your body and
your clothes and avoid standing water where mosquitoes breed.
Tonight a warning protect yourself from a small bug with a
deadly bite you might die
so it's possibly that was a native add for detail. I
was going to say why did they do that? Because that's a brand no
that's not a chemical it's
not a brand it's a chemical that's in various brands. Insect
repellent
could be I had not heard about the killer mosquitoes Oh,
you're gonna die. So what
exactly are they infected with?
Equine Encephalitis something e triple E
encephalitis where your head swell your brain swells correct
yeah your brain swells and then your your your kind of you love
you die you die if you get through without being brain
damaged.
Well, thanks for that uplift.
Neurologists that live next door they told me about some of these
brain swelling diseases. And the way you're supposed to do it if
you catch it by the brain is swelling what you have if you
catch it while your breath is weak Do I have a headache to
lessen this swelling a God you have to you have to do it.
Nobody talks about this, but you have to drill a hole in the
skull and let the excess fluid which is accumulating stream out
like you know like you drain it. It's like It's like collecting
maple syrup. It put a little tap in there. Yeah, and you get a
little bucket at the bottom. I always thought that was gruesome
but okay when whenever needed to be very careful when you drill I
guess. You want to get a shards
let's do a little a little OTG off the grid report. Oh good.
Couple of things here first big news rain Wait where's the
jingle? Come
on. I liked the jingle. Oh, well which one would you like? OTG
going OTG I'm an OTG guy a guy
like that you're happy. Happy with OTG Okay, yeah. OTG
Yes. Okay.
Big news came out. As we kind of expected the Amazon has part
well, we're not going to say Amazon will say, doorbell camera
company ring owned by Amazon has partnered with 400 police forces
across the United States, granting them potential access
to homeowners camera footage, and a powerful role in what the
community calls the nation's new neighbourhood watch. The
partnership allows police to automatically request video
recorded by homeowners cameras within a specific time and area.
Helping officers see footage from the companies millions of
internet connected cameras installed nationwide. I just
want to read that again. Helping officers see footage from the
companies, millions of internet connected cameras installed
nationwide. Now you're the company's customers. But okay,
they're yours I guess, probably in the EULA. Officers will not
receive ongoing or live video access and homeowners can
decline the requests, which ring sends via email. And I have a
feeling that if you don't respond, they just do it anyway.
And why the hell wouldn't they allow access regardless of what
you say? This is so bad. We have created a security state in our
own neighbourhoods. Everybody on my street has them. You cannot
walk on my street without someone seeing you. You must
obey. That's exactly what it is. I find this very disturbing and
I don't know what to do. You can't vandalise them because
everyone sees you're walking up so I don't know what is there
any any thinking on how we can you can vandalise them? Yeah,
but I don't want to be caught vandalised. Now,
here's how you do it. Low tip for any vandals out there and we
probably have a few few listeners who are vandals you
know, the humour humorous once you put a ski mask on, run out
of your house as fast as you can. But firstly, first of all
you bought put a piece of wood or something in front of your
own worrying. And then says like, it's like, oh, I didn't
know.
Hold on. I gotta take notes. Hold on. Okay, put a block of
wood. Wood. Wood. Definitely your own rings. gaffers
tape be okay. Wood. Yes, wood guy. Put
a ski mask on grab a spray can have. Do I need a rope? For this
as well. Just a spray can a black like a maga hat? Use rust
oleum paint because it's got some chemicals in there that
might scratch up the lens. Yeah. And then run over to your
neighbours and spray the thing as fast as you can. Making sure
that you're not being you can't be seen from other ring
doorbells. Good leaving your own house. If you can make sure of
that, then you can do it.
No, the whole street is while we're on a cul de sac. So we're
blanketed all the way around.
I don't think you can see your porch from another house.
The minute you get on the street, everybody can see you to
the minute you walk out your driveway. Everybody can see me
in this configuration we're going to call the sack that's
that's where we live. So I don't like your idea. I wish there was
something I wish I could Can you destroy him with a laser you
know, kind of shine of laser? Well, that used to ruin cameras.
That won't work anymore, will it?
I don't think a laser is going to do much. I mean it's possible
from a distance if you had a high enough output laser, which
is probably illegal to begin with. Something you don't want
to play with. You could probably blast them you know one at a
time, but you have to be pretty good shot. Yeah.
Yeah, but again, you know, you Oh, maybe a drone, maybe a drone
with a spray can attachment or something that's, that would now
you're
thinking with a spray can attachment or like one of those
drones that holds like a 45 and
the judge strap the judge to my drone will take care of that for
you. Yeah, anyway, so there's your security state, and believe
me, it's going to come to bite people in the ass. Okay. See,
oh, I got an interesting note from one of our anonymous. Yeah,
was it for the job? No, no, no, this is no this is
what is the phone that you have. Is it an app? You said it was a
iPhone five something?
Yeah, hold on. This is this is still part of the OTG segment
just because I'm going into an email. Oh, yes, the iPhone five
is the lowest number. I used to be on the Nokia E 71. I still
have it. I still like that device. But it's three G only.
And that's starting to go away. And it has problems.
Seriously, what Jay has found an accessory for your phone, for
the Nokia, know for the iPhone five.
Well, then let me tell you about my setup. And then I want to
think it over and then I want to hear what the accessory is. So
in order to be prepared for the ultimate shutdown of 3g, the
lowest iPhone that will do 4g LTE is the iPhone five, you
don't want the SD you want the five is a five has good battery
life, you want to turn everything first of all, you buy
it off of Amazon between 125 150 bucks, and it comes in, it's
completely fresh and new. So you have to create an Apple account,
which just do a bogus name, and you get a you know, like an
Apple ID, and you do not put your credit card or anything in
that's just so you can get through the through the process
of setting it all up. There is one little gotcha that I ran
into, because I wanted the latest software update for that
phone available because that would allow me to use my hearing
aids, it's the also the first phone that allowed that had the
hearing aid integration from Apple, you have to sync it
through iTunes because it will no longer download that
automatically over the air. So you have to do some work now. So
once that's done, you turn off all of the iCloud stuff, turn
off backups, turn everything off all the privacy settings to the
left off off off no location. And I kind of trust Apple's
device in this regard. I think that they're pretty fair. If
you're not logged in through iCloud. Now, of course, your
maps won't know where you are. And you only want to use Apple
Maps if you have to. But the thing about this phone is you
could flip it on. Also, you're not going to instal any apps
except for one. And this is the tricky part because this is
where you do need to consider if you want to pay for this or not.
And that's called privacy Pro. And you can get one I think it's
free. But you really want the paid version. And that is the
equivalent of a piehole for your iPhone five. So you can block
any URL it comes loaded with, with all kinds of links that
it'll block and you can fully block Google Twitter, face bag,
and Instagram, none of that stuff will work. You can add
things. And it's essentially a VPN to what you are left over
with after you go through all this. And I should probably
write it up and do a video, which I think I'll do. Just so
people have the steps, then you will have a phone that does
calling. It does. You can download, you can use the
podcast app that works reasonably well. You can do text
messaging, and you also want to make sure that I message shit is
shut off. So none of that you don't want to be because you'll
get locked into their system to don't use that. And you'll have
a web browser and the web browser is really underpowered,
you can't, you can barely do Twitter with it. If you want to
look at Twitter, of course a heavy site just on the web
browser itself. But if you just want to do something really
quick as possible, and email. Now emails not going to be a
great experience. But if I'm out on a Saturday afternoon, I get
the newsletter email from you, I want to take a look at it. It
takes me longer. It's a pain in the ass. But the flip side is I
have no reason to grab this phone to look at something
really quick because it's a pain in the ass. So either you don't
look at it, you ask someone else, a handy intrument
interdimensional millennial who might be nearby, they look that
up for me, I learned that from your works very well. Or you
just just don't do it. Go home. We'll do it there. And I feel
that Google has having a hard time tracking me. And you know,
it's blocking all of these wonderful, all of these
wonderful little URLs with trackers and clickers, etc. So
and the battery lasts a long time because there's no apps
that are you know, spying on you and talking to home base. In
fact, nothing goes out of there.
I think you're gonna bring down Google.
I hope so.
Well, we have a case that we found brand new in the box. Did
you email it to me? No,
I'm not gonna email. mail it to you. Oh, I
thought you said you're gonna eat It was a picture of
something Okay, no, no,
I got a stain to send you and it's a case but it also has a
battery in it. So your battery life will last for months.
Yeah. And I appreciate that and I will try it out. But I really
like the very light when I pick up the the keepers
phone like having a case you're going to drop it. I've dropped
this phone already. This on it hasn't busted into a million
pieces.
No, no.
How did they fix that problem?
Chip the corner off? Yeah, because it has an actual metal
rim. Not all glass that shatters on impact. But you pick up an
iPhone 10 like, Whoa, what is this brick you're carrying
around. Now? I love it. And I don't use it. I use it for phone
calls, text messaging, and maybe an email. And that's it. That's
all you want, and you're reasonably secure. Still not the
best, but it's better than nothing. And you got the 4g
anonymous as he works at a university or she and the second
day of class. Administration was left flat footed after a
technology glitch. Over the past several years, the school has
moved to automated door locks on many buildings and classrooms.
These doors are unlocked at specific times of day and days
of the week based on a central server. Well after a nightly
technology glitch. The network servers were down in the morning
and guess what the students couldn't get into classrooms
employees couldn't get into their buildings employees who
found their buildings master key found it did not open most of
the doors. Police were asked to break down the doors. And can
you imagine what kind of crap we're going to run into in the
future? This is just the start.
I don't understand why anyone would think this was a good
idea.
Well, I think it's I don't know, I don't know why it's
that department that you used to live in to have this system like
this and it's just the power went out. Be will be stuck in or
out.
No, it was the elevator. Okay, it was the elevator that that
you have to you have to pre programme the floor you want to
go to and so all the panels turn off. But yeah, you also can't
access certain areas because the the swipe cards you know, the
RFID system doesn't work. Which is surprising. You know we have
Texas is another thing I will not do. We have toll roads. In
Austin particularly Yeah, we have a toll lane on MOPAC. And
you have this need for like the tolls in San Francisco for the
bridge or whatever. You got to box right. And how big is this
box that they gave you to put in his cloud
three inches by three inches?
Is it powered or is it no batteries massive?
It's it's our it's passiveness induction.
So they have now it's just a sticker. It's just a sticker.
Yeah, but these things. The thing over the highway that's
about 10 feet in the air. That's a good distance it's powering.
It's passively powering this, this RF RFID sticker. And it's
blasting it back. I'm impressed. Yeah, you're
getting irradiated and feed at least you've induction tellin ya
site, that cooking machine, you know, he says cool burner, you
put a piece of mail on his starts heating up.
If you by any chance and I all your fillings are going to be
heating up. If everybody would like to take a look at their
smartphones, if you got them shame on you. Make sure you do
not have the Foursquare app still lurking on there
somewhere. I don't know if anyone even uses Foursquare
anymore. But several years ago, they've checked
in, well checked in Yes,
apparently that audit, they've automated some of that checking
stuff based upon where you've been in the past or where you're
going. This company still makes according to reports $100
million a year off of location data. And this just zombie apps,
because they have very, because of the check ins and where
certain locations are if you're on the fifth floor of a building
or the ninth floor, the fair the Foursquare app somehow knows
that still based upon you know, they have 100 million profiles
and still people leave this app on their phone you just don't
think about it, but it's communicating your exact data
back continuously. Remove that battery wasting battery to
remove that from your phone. So that I'm doing all kinds of
research about tracking etc. I came across a movie which is on
YouTube, which I don't know if we talked about it. I'd never
seen it called a good American. Have you heard of this movie?
Just a car tune
path. No, it's now that's Team America. A good American is
about the NSA, in particular bill Binney story, and Bill
Binney, the whistleblower, but there's a part of the story that
I had never heard. And you and this is a must see, it's about
an hour and 20 minutes, it's well done. It's professionally
done. It's little slow from time to time. But he goes through
this scenario that he and his small team within the NSA had
built a meta data only tracking system called thin thread. And
it was so good that it was automatically predicting things
were going to happen based upon the algorithms they had built.
He was predicting them not after the fact, but they could say, in
fact, they came closer within 24 hours with something happening
was I think the coal. Yeah, US coal attack. And they Oh, and
they hadn't even they hadn't even completed the system at
that point. And what he also had done, or Binney and his team, is
that encrypted, all of the metadata nodes, so if you would
never know who, who was talking to who they were just
represented by a cryptographically, signed or
generated hash, I guess. And so if you want to find out who it
was, after seeing the patterns, because that's what it was all
about, for the for this particular system, then you
could always get a warrant, and then, you know, get the private
key out of the vault and unlock it. And this system works so
well, that when one of the bosses before that the boss, who
you're going to hear about in a second came in, said, Well, what
if he gave you a billion dollars? What could you do with
this programme? And Benny and Benny and his team went away,
and they they thought about and they came back so well, for 300
million, we can blanket the entire world with the system, we
really don't know how to spend the other one, the other $1.1
billion. So in 2001, a new leader of the NSA came in Do you
remember who that was? An old favourite of ours. That was
General Hayden. Exactly. Hayden came in and now I'm going to
switch over to a piece of this movie General
Hayden hire Bill Black to come in and take over the Deputy
Director ship. Once Bill Black was brought in from SAIC, where
he had been the vice president. The following spring he brought
in another senior vice president from SAIC in that person was Sam
Wizner and who gets the contract to develop Trailblazer? SAIC
what's wrong with this picture?
SAIC was a private company is made up basically of retired NSA
individuals. People from NSA retire and they'll go into a
company like SAIC, and then they'll use their contacts back
at NSA to get contracts back to SAIC.
So this was really the start of what would become an incredible
boondoggle as the ThinThread system, which was working had
accurately predicted things that NSA had not even seen before.
And retroactively found these patterns as well, which they had
missed. No, no. Hayden had decided that it was going to be
ThinThread was going to were going away and it was going to
be trailblazer and Trailblazer was all these big consulting
firms. You heard about SAIC coming in all the big
manufacturers, billions of dollars on the line consultants
everywhere they shut down the thing that was working perfectly
well, and these guys came in and started to create this huge
storage of everything unencrypted, no cryptographic
masking of names, etc. And it's a fantastic story to hear how
all they gave up. All they cared about was just big money from
their own buddies. And then listen to this last clip, about
911 that I remember this the Hayden came in in 2001 day
after 911 I came in dressed like I was going to sweep the floor.
So the guards let me in otherwise they would have kept
me out then too, because that day that General Hayden ordered
everybody out the building to
just need to mention that you'll hear a name here who was the
number three and command marine Baginski and she You'll hear her
about it in this clip so she was the third in command under hate
no
when I got in there, I got went up to the Sark and while I was
in there trying to look at the material in my on my computer
why my contracting president of the contract during group that I
had working on ThinThread came over to me and said that he just
been in a contractor meeting with Sam Wizner and in that
meeting, Sam visitor had told him that he said to him, Do not
embarrass large companies, you do your part, you'll get your
share. There's plenty for everybody. And he also said that
salmon said that we could milk this cow for 15 years,
we began to go about to the workforce, and I would accompany
marine Baginski the workforce took this extraordinarily hard,
people would ask her, what are you going to do? And I still
remember her saying 911 is a gift to NSA. We're gonna get all
the money we need and then some direct quote 911 is a gift and
all she saw was dollars coming from Congress and we will get to
spend freely
How does my stomach turn? Yeah, they they really disgusting.
They compromised the country and
they will give a shit about the country. Now they don't take
care about their pocketbooks. This is a very dish people
should be rousted,
they should be rousted, and they should be roasted, beaten with
with rubber tubing in front of ring cameras for all the world
to see. It's an hate and especially and we always thought
he was creepy. And we know these things are about boondoggles. I
hadn't heard this history.
No, I haven't heard this story either. I'm gonna have to watch
this now. Thanks.
You'll like it. A good American is the tone of voice like Binney
Binney and Thomas Drake are my two the you know, and there's
two or three other guys. Yeah, but those are the two guys the
main two guys that I like Drake and Binney.
I think Drake was the second guy you heard in that clip? I think
I'm not
me. But yes, the guy who gives his lecture he always started
off with was Nowadays he's never talked to the F B. I
don't talk to the Feds man ever.
Since if you remember Thomas Drake was another whistleblower
and he worked before he got you know rousted busted. He actually
went through the normal channels you're supposed to do and that
included talking to the FBI about some bad things going on
at the NSA, and they just took all what he said and turn it
against him and arrested him.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. No, they rousted those guys. They took all their
files from their home, everything pointed guns at them
while they were in the shower. Yeah. It's so corrupt. It's so
corrupt to me.
You have all these congressmen saying? Well, these people, they
went outside protocol? No, they never did go outside protocol.
They wouldn't protocol. They probably
created the protocol. And Hayden went on to run the CIA. Yeah,
jackasses man. So while we're on OTG, and then it'll be my I got
tonnes of stuff to talk about. But please stop using Uber and
Lyft you're getting ripped off. Besides that they're selling all
of your data. I noticed this years ago, maybe two years ago,
that I was getting weird pricing based upon just who I was
because of Tina standing next to me use the Uber app on her
phone, she get a lower price. Now it's coming out Ars Technica
had a big article about especially how these Uber is
when it comes to surge pricing, they'll charge twice or three
times as much as the fare only give the driver like five bucks.
So it could it could be that there's a $90 charge with surge
pricing. And the driver still gets $15 This is a horrible
company. I don't think I I think people don't even know get use
it. Well, they use Lyft. But I think Lyft is similar. It's all
based on algorithms and they're just charging you shit. Do
whatever they whatever they want to do. Just take it fine. So
don't use that. I'm going
to assume I was tempted I don't use these things. I've actually
used a regular cab. But so here I am. I'm getting off of one
time I there's nobody to pick me up from the airport. So I took
the BART through the whole system and got ended up over an
L Street I had to cab home You
didn't meet any friends while you were on BART and must have
been fun.
No, it's not very sociable to be honest about his drug addicts on
BART. Anyway, so I come back and I have a Lyft account and so I
said well This lift was there was a car right around the
corner and the price it was 750 I said, and there was a cab
sitting there waiting. Just jumping this cap hell with this.
I got back and I got to the house and what was the fee? You
think?
Okay, yeah. The fee What do you mean the fee but I paid the
cabbie Oh versus the $15 for the app?
No versus the 750 I would have had to pay lift. I have no idea.
750
It's exactly the same. Yeah.
So I'm thinking, what's the point?
Well, you get to wait around instead of going straight to a
cab. I mean, the cabs in Austin are not great at the airport.
Not a family. I use it though. I just I'm tired. I'm gonna pick
you up. Yeah, well, like you. We have children. No, don't give a
shit. You come back from a trip. They're not there to pick you
up. There's nothing in the house. Everything's dark. Your
wheat is gone. It's all this stuff. It's just horrible. Can't
when I tell you why that happened. I didn't mean to do
that.
You know what the clip you should have played during your
little thing there with the Bob Binney was the pre crime clip.
Do we still have that? We haven't played that.
Pre crime. Let's see. It used to be under pre crime. It
might be under pre crime. Let me see. I think this is it. Getting
convicted. No, that's not it. I have a lot of pre crime but
it's, it's I don't have the jingle. Why wouldn't I have that
jingle. I do however, have this jingle.
I'm gonna show my school by donating to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun
Well, I'm gonna have you play that again. Because I have a
lead in here for this is a clip. Okay. That would be what we'd be
doing on this show. Had it not been for our model. Okay. This
is a this is the second part of Malcolm Gladwell podcast
revisionist history, I noticed we played it the opening of a
show a couple shows ago. But in the middle of the show, he
interrupts things to bring in his sponsor, and and and kowtow
to him. In this clip.
I'm back with moe carrabba. We're talking about 5g, the next
great digital revolution, the revolution. Beyond the phone.
Today, an ambulance pulls up to the hospital. And you've got to
handoff data to the medical professionals inside of the
hospital. With 5g you can imagine that becomes an
automated process, which also helps patient lives. It's more
efficient, and you're handing off the data more precisely.
It's a beautiful thing. And then more long term becomes how do we
think through training doctors to become better surgeons
faster. In the future using augmented reality, you can
literally watch the best surgeons on Earth, perform
surgery and learn as if it's you doing it. With augmented
reality, you can overlay the scan of the patient if you will.
So you never have to look away from them and can help guide you
on the next thing you need to do as part of your surgery.
And presumably, when you're training someone, you would no
longer have to be in the room as you train them. You could have
access to a wide number of people who are giving you advice
because they could all watch through your eyes. Right?
Exactly.
Right. This is just a general 5g native ad What the hell it's
just for the whole industry.
Well, he's from AT and T so it's for at&t.
Oh, this Oh, you're right is the eighth. Gosh, well, that's
pathetic.
He certainly the part where because of 5g you can hand off
the documents in a much smoother way somehow I don't know how
that works jammed into that little hole in your phone. Let's
try this again. I'm going
to show my school by donation to no agenda. Imagine all the
people who could do oh yeah, that'd be fun.
Instead of thanking at&t, we're gonna thank our people who
really matter. People who really matters, including, of course,
of course, it gets demeaned by our man's name here so sir fomer
Brahmin of the hat to hatchapee loop. So sir foamer I
contributed $111.11 Oh, he's
he says he's moved to Harrison New Jersey, not far not far from
my old stomping grounds. Right. Choose with Jack
London Square. Do it live sure cow North various Michigan cow

Yes, good product $111.11 And he says can you see my address? I
live on curry road.
Yeah, it's with IE though doesn't count.

to the podium right there next to the lecture. And you see
before you the roundtable the no agenda Knights and Dames they
await your arrival. Thank you for supporting the no agenda
show in the amount of $1,000 and more. I'm very proud to
pronounce the KGB, sir, a cabal of the bikepath garble and Sir
Baltimore, mudflats, gentlemen, for you, we've got hookers and

nation.com/rings and talk to Eric the shill he'd be more than
help happy to get your ring out to you once you have all of the
sizes and your address etc know what? The meetups yet another
thing that no other podcasts can do like we do because you do it
that's the great part about it this is our value for value
model works you got a meet up report from Lincoln Nebraska
with a nice picture was all dudes this time Hey Adam and
John wanted to write in share report about the Nebraska no
agenda meetup ended up being 12 guys that attended we had a
university professor and no agenda night a big pharma shill,
and a guy who lives in a van down by the river. Think about
that for a second. Where are you going to have this combination
of people in one place? Everyone was cool and down to earth the
conversations flowed everyone was cool as hell actually. And
we all agreed to have another hope to see more people at the
next one. I encourage any no agenda listener to attend or
organise a meetup in their area. And I want to thank dude named
Daniel who was running no agenda meetups.com He has a couple of
updates to the site, we now have a working map, a map view for
the meetups. This is cool. So you can see you can zoom out and
see all the international meetups. As long as the producer
has entered the address of the venue correctly, events should
flow straight into the map. Very important. There are now files
for people to print. You'll find it under Resources, the
resources menu, these are of course our heads for print out
to put on sticks. And a big request was RSVPs. Many people
were asking for them. It is now integrated into this into the
system. For event organisers log in at the top right hand of the
site, you'll see a list of your upcoming events. Is this
fantastic? Again, the value for value model you see how it works
right before your very eyes. You do not get this kind of stuff
and mainstream. It's only what we can do here. And I
congratulate everybody on this now quick list of what's coming
up. We have Burning Man today. That's Black Rock City, Nevada.
Of course I don't have to mention this because you're
already there and you can't listen at all. Do they have
connection up there? They have bandwidth. They have internet
you're not supposed to.
You're not supposed to the 31st of August we've got to Busan,
South Korea and Sao Paulo and added Peterborough, Ontario,
Canada, September 5, Seattle the sixth in Calgary, Alberta,
September 7, Zurich 11th in Orlando, the 14th, Pittsburgh
and El Paso, Las Cruces, the 20th of September, Southeast
Louisiana, Nelson, British Columbia, South East London and
Salem, Oregon, the entire world, four corners of the earth almost
we'll be meeting with no agenda producers on the 20th, the 21st,
eastern North Carolina, the 26th, Las Vegas and Luxembourg,
San Antonio on the 27th to 28th in Copenhagen, I think this may
be a new entry. And I would like to request if anyone is so
willing to consider organising a meetup at Delray Beach, Florida
for Friday, February 21. The keeper and I will be there we
would love to attend a meet up again if you can. If you're in
the area and you'd like to organise it, get go to no agenda
meetups.com And we're looking for a Delray Beach or in that
general area, Delray Beach meetup Friday, February 1. And
thank you for participating in this social experiment that are
the no agenda meetups, I find it to be incredibly exciting.
Personally, I'd love that this is happening. It's something
about it that is bigger than us and hopefully legacy. You know,
you'll make friends and contact in your area. And hopefully,
some of those will be around much longer than we are or the
show. Yeah, sounds kind of fatalistic. I know. But can I
say
I got a couple of things here. I want to get out of the way. One,
I've been noticing the six week cycle events that are just
marking them all six week cycles. So over time, we can see
if any of them actually are. There was one a couple of weeks
ago some some doofus did something stupid. This is one
here's a little bit more dubious even than the one from the last
one and I'll explain why.
Also breaking the new start. Do you want me to start explain
why after the
clip also breaking the new mass shooting plot that authorities
say they have foiled tonight, a student at High Point University
in North Carolina arrested with guns in his dorm and busy Steve
Patterson on what police say he was planning and how they caught
him.
Just knew sir you're in court today with a 19
year old suspect appearing in court via video conference
today. Are you accepting this attorney services as your
attorney? Prosecutors see High Point University student Paul
Stieber wanted to Carry out America's next mass shooting.
But that campus security guards foiled the alleged plot when
they confiscated this nine millimetre semi automatic
handgun and 12 gauge shotgun plus ammunition from his dorm
room. Prosecutors say Stieber a Boston native plan to shoot up
the school confessing his timeline to kill people had been
planned since December and that he had studied other mass
shootings. He definitely had plans had been researching. The
district attorney told the court Stieber chose to enrol at school
in North Carolina because it was easier to buy weapons. State law
prohibits the possession of firearms on school grounds.
Stieber faces charges for having weapons on campus and for
communicating a threat of mass violence. University officials
say they discovered the alleged plot when other students alerted
security.
Kate, Steve Patterson, thank you. Okay.
Talks funny. Now, this is bullcrap the guy had he had a
gun. He had a semi automatic gun, which he kept in his room,
which is not supposed to do I guess on this school. And then
this so called shotgun looked like an old blunderbuss. I don't
even know if it was the shotgun. Like with a
big horn at the end.
I didn't have the horn at the end, but it had big giant
hammers. I mean, if it was anything, it might have been
some old shot I have.
I have a double barrel 20 gauge with hammers on top. They're
beautiful.
They had that. So this is not a gun for a mass shooting. You
need a pump action gun that holds its shells and you can
pump away.
Oh, do tell John, what else do we need for mass shooting?
Obviously you don't want a double barrel shotgun with
hammers at the top? No. And then the vizlib they had a pistol big
deal. He didn't have like any. He's just dumb.
Did he have a military style assault rifle?
No. Stupid shot gun if it was that, I still think it was a
blunderbuss and a pistol. That's it. Now the mass shootings
you're going to do
now it said that he communicated that he wanted to get it before
it to execute a mass shooting. So where did he
communicate? They don't talk about it. It's like he said
something just girlfriend or I have no idea. This is bull cred.
This is just a bad story.
Well, no, it's it's a story that keeps everybody looking like
they know what they're doing. And we're protecting the public.
Because yes, you see we can thwart mass shootings.
Yeah, good. Exactly.
That's that's what it is. Exactly.
Yeah. The other clip, which is also from NBC, which really
irked me, because we did this clip over a year ago. Now we
could have gotten on NBC, we could have done some publicity.
I don't know why. We can't get publicity for some of our good
work
because we're old white men. Hello.
So here's the story that they did on NBC, which is the story
we did a year ago, but they're going to do it anyway. And of
course there's no way if they have no solution. They don't
bring in Elizabeth Warren they don't bitch and moan. They don't
do anything. This is the phone call scammers.
Here's a twist on yet another story about criminals using
phone scams to trick people into giving up personal information.
This week, the tables were turned on one corner to con
artists when a police captain answered the call. And this is
Tom Costello has more on how the scammer got scammed
verify me. No,
I will not. And Stevens admits she enjoyed messing with this
scammer.
I need you to verify me with the last four digits of your Social
Security.
I'm not going to confirm my social security number with
you without a clue. He was talking to an apex North
Carolina police captain the phone caller claimed he was a
social security officer and in 45 minutes she be arrested on
serious charges like money laundering, trafficking,
and Internal Revenue Service. I'm gonna be charged
with drug trafficking.
It's not coming to get me I'm pretty sure that
she posted the video as a warning to victims, especially
the elderly.
We wanted them to see they're going to use any tactic they can
to try to scare you into believing that something's going
to happen. So you'll give up your personal information. And
we just want people to know never do that
will not tell me how many bank accounts you have been go ahead
and suspend all the bank accounts which are connected to
your Social Security. Don't blame us if you lose any money.
Eventually the bad guy hung up.
So folks, these are scam calls.
Don't ever give out
your information.
The good news, this scammer has now gone viral. Tom Costello NBC
News, Washington.
Viral he's gone viral. I'm bet he's so embarrassed.
This is her rising let's get the NBC stuff out of the way. First
of all, the scammer never got scammed. Like they started the
story with oh the scammer got scammed. How did he get scammed
because
they they they call out culture man we call them out it was when
went viral.
So and then Then the weather reporter says she was messing
with them. She was I when I did my clip I was messing with the
guy was getting a bad information. I was stringing him
along she just refused to talk to the guy. I'm not giving you
my number. I'm not giving him I was no entertainment in this
clip. There was no entertainment and then if dead then it's a
cop. And this is illegal. And what is the cop do about it?
laughs it off and posts it. How about going after the guy
finding some way to stop this bitching about the fact that
Elizabeth Warren promised that she was gonna do this bullcrap.
Well, I laughed it off hole. So funny. Two things
happened yesterday to me. As it relates to this I this I know.
Unless it's unless I recognise a number, like it's in my address
book. I think I have 20 names in my address book on this phone.
That's it. I don't pick up when it goes to voicemail. Here's one
that went to voicemail yesterday. Let me see if I can
make this work.
Yeah, social security number is being suspended. And there is an
arrest warrant being issued under your name. To talk to an
officer press one. I repeat to know more about the case, press
one.
So obviously, I didn't didn't call back or anything like that.
But I got a call somewhat later in the day, and it was an 877
number. Now, if it's a 512, I'm inclined to pick it up, which is
our area code. 877 is typical. Like, that might be a legit
service. It wasn't my own 650 area code. I still have a phone
from Silicon Valley days. And this lovely lady, but she saw it
sounded older. You know? Hello. May I speak with Adam curry? I
hate that. By the way. I despise it. announce who you are first.
But no. I say who's calling so I can always get out of it. Well,
this is Ford credit. Like this sounds like a scam. And she
really sounded like a scammer. But yeah, my lease is up in six
weeks. And I'm happy to get rid of this this car. Because I
don't need it anymore. Don't have the Airstream. And and it's
to know they come to you. She's like, well, we're going to come
to your house and we're going to and I'm still not believe it.
We're going to inspect the cars, your inspections, you're gonna
come to my house and inspect my car. And what does this cost me
said no, no, this is a Ford credit. And she and she kept
into I need your home. I'd like to give you my home address. I
don't know who you are. You clearly know what kind of car I
have. I don't like this. And then she went through a whole
bunch of numbers that I could verify the account numbers.
Okay, you're really NT was and but it took 10 minutes of me
just trying to figure out if she was legit or not?
Yeah, that's part of the problem. Yeah. So I'm sure they
feel crappy about it, because everyone thinks they're
criminals.
She might have been a criminal. It's always the old grandma.
It's always the Grinch. She's really, she was really good man.
She got me good. On Sunday, I do want to provide an update on
Patrick Byrne, who continues to write about his his involvement
with Maria Butina. He's writing some crip some cryptic stuff
that he says I'm not going to talk about this. But I've
already I've already figured out that it relates to Anna Chapman.
Apparently Maria Butina was a part of the same out Outreach
Programme that the actual hot Russian spy was a part of only
Anna Chapman was the one who was spying on the Democrats and
Hillary Clinton. And that he has, you know, because I've done
some research on that, and we'll talk about that on Sunday, we
can go a little bit deeper. Unless there's some kind of
breaking news. I did want to leave with this one clip from
Andrew Yang, who I'm getting a little more respect for. Except
he doesn't ever says this stuff on television or in interviews.
He only does it on podcasts. And in this case, it's about the
media.
The other thing is just how corrupt our media conglomerates
are where I was done. I thought they just reported news, much
more so but they're actually really do have their fingers on
scales in various ways.
So there's a little bit of truth to a lot of the, I guess,
traditional conservative criticism that the media is not
always even handed.
It's wild during this run. I feel like I've now seen kernels
with truth and a lot of Trumpism honestly, where he's like fake
news, and then you're like, come on Trump, but then you look into
it be like well, there's something there. Like obviously
he's overly emphasising it and dramatise it like enemy that
people stuffs obviously like, you know, like being honestly
extreme. But yeah, that's actually been a surprise to me.
Like, I'm sort of stunned that I get treated better by Fox and
MSNBC. I thought MSNBC would like me I would have thought
that
that's very funny.
I wish he would just be honest and say, Hey, you guys suck, you
would actually get traction. You
would that's what Trump did it work. I mean, I think the public
is kind of amenable to that I do have a clip to follow up that
which is the Sanders, who is
he's also saying you saying the same things. Yeah,
he's being treated very poorly by the by the media, but he's
going about his condemnation kind of the wrong way. And I
think it's the it's been documented that the New York
Times has got a reporter that that covers him and who hates
him, and is apparently his job is to dismiss him and I,
according to Sanders, the wall, the Washington Post that has a
person like that, too, and even though he still stays up there
in the numbers, race is not going to last too long,
especially after he does this kind of thing. And this is the
unreported this on it. Democracy Now was unreported by everybody
else, but it's quite interesting,
independent Senator 2020. hopeful Bernie Sanders has
released a plan to protect independent journalism and end
the consolidation and corporate control of media outlets. His
plan includes ending federal approval of major media mergers,
giving employees an opportunity to have ownership in news
outlets, increasing funding for local and independent news and
strengthening antitrust regulations to stop tech giants
like Facebook and Google from quote, cannibalising, bilking
and defunding news organisations. Sanders notes
President Trump's assault on the press has further threatened the
media landscape
nice threatened nice threaten Yeah. I don't like like some of
these ideas I'm hearing. I think the I think the the press when
they can't make their business model work, just have to go
away. I'm sorry. We may wind up with the New York Times.
Washington Post I'm sure will survive probably USA Today. And
the rest will be just whatever blogs you trust. I mean, all
these these hotshot publishing companies are all going out of
business. I'm sure you read that essay by some person who was on
staff that I guess Gawker and they got spun out and bought.
And this person was complaining that oh, all the all the Silicon
Valley hotshot who bought the company all they wanted was
clickbait. And, yeah, I mean, exactly the shit weed they're
accused of basically. Yeah. Like, no one cares about your
your in depth reporting online. Because there's no money to be
made off that link clicks, clicks, clicks, clicks that we
need ticks that two clicks.
So it's chat videos.
Yeah, it seems like a lot of this stuff is over. things do
come to an end, you know?
Well, you know
the fact
anyone who studied the fact is that the newspapers began their
decline with television news. It had nothing to do with the
Internet. It's always been declining. And it forced them to
like do certain kinds of consolidation. If you look at
old newspapers, from the 1900s, it's nothing like today. There's
lots of competition San Francisco had like, what four or
five newspapers, you know, they had the call, they had the
bulletin, which had to merge into the call bulletin, they had
this exam, or they had the Chronicle, which had to
eventually merge merged into eventually, everybody got
bought, and I was one newspaper, The Chronicle and there was
other papers, this there was a New York must have had 10 or
more newspapers, and it was very competitive and ever we got paid
well, and there was their breaking stories. And they were
doing the clickbait in their own version with the headlines and
they would sell paper boys would sell and on the, to the
commuters, yeah, read all about it. All that sort of thing, died
with it with television. And it started to consolidate and just
got worse with the Internet. I'm surprised are hanging on as long
as they are.
Well, what I see forming before our very eyes, I see long form
journalism being done. And I think very well, there are some
journalists out there who don't he might even call themselves
journalists. And like George Webb on YouTube, and there's a
lot of in depth work being done. That is extremely valuable and
very readable. And I would say it appears better sourced. Now,
you can't trust the so called mainstream either so at a
certain point you you follow someone and you see what if they
were talking crap or not. And the future appears to be people
like you and I know human content routers we sift through
it distil let some stuff seep through. If I had a penny for
every time someone says I only listen to you guys, I don't need
to watch that shit anymore. I will I'd have 100 pennies, but
it now
an element of that should be noted which is well what are you
going to do if The old the big papers you would use as stealing
content from the big board and just your job, whatever they and
we wouldn't have any kind of the best content that we have
including this the things that you just played. Is that like
that Andrew Yang clipped at you, podcast. Exactly our best
content does not our best ridiculing content where we're
just exploring a disguise. We're doing a piss poor job that comes
from the mainstream media. But our best informational content
does not it comes from all these other sources. We don't really
use the New York Times to source some of our stories. If we're
going to go into in depth stuff. We use them to point out that
they're biassed. So that's bullcrap. So these are your
right is going to be guys like us,
as long as we can keep each other alive. We're in good
shape. To stop smoking so much weed. Alright, buddy, thank you
trolls for keeping us on our toes. At least me John doesn't
look at you. I do I see you trolls. And thank you to our
producers for today's programme. And of course we will return on
Sunday I hopefully will have an update. I'm gonna see if I can
make it to the big the big meeting at six may be
overcrowded. See? And please remember us at divorce
act.org/na Without your production dollars we go away.
That's just how it works. Yeah,
it's your iPhone five, make videos. It can blow up we record
the Go predict some videos of that event.
Coming to you from opportunity zone 33 in the frontier of
Austin, Texas in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry.
