John C. Dvorak: There is no bat with this virus.
Unknown: Adam curry, John C. Dvorak.
Adam Curry: Thursday, August 13 2020. This is your award winning
combination media assassination episode 1268.
Unknown: This is no agenda.
Adam Curry: headed down under and broadcasting live from
opportunity's own 33 in the front here of Austin, Texas
capital of the drone Star State. In the morning, everybody. I'm
Adam curry,
John C. Dvorak: and from Northern Silicon Valley where
we're all celebrating the nomination for vice president of
Kamala Harris. In Finish, it means horrible and disgusting
app. It should add more research. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Unknown: Crackpot and Buzzkill.
Adam Curry: Yeah, you should have done a lot more research to
make that opening shorter to fit in the music bed. Yeah. Wow.
Well done. Weld eight. Wait, wait, wait, wait for Question.
Question. Have you been doing the work?
John C. Dvorak: No. I've been doing the show. Okay. So I this
clip that I've been carrying around just because I thought it
was interesting. And this was from a guy I've never heard of
this guy. And he's discussing on one of the shows, how do you vet
the vice president? Now? I would think that if you vetted the
Vice President and you found her first name met horrible and
disgusting. In Finnish that is in Finnish, well, I know but you
always do that kind of research to say you at least have some
something because you know, Trump's gonna eventually just
bring it up and then start calling her horrible Harris.
Adam Curry: That's the one yeah, we're
John C. Dvorak: looking for a nickname horrible.
Adam Curry: phony, phony. Kamala.
John C. Dvorak: Wait, D Yes. And that there's a ad that came out
talking about phony Comala. In fact, I have a copy of that ad.
Yeah. That
Adam Curry: it was ready. Two seconds after after the.
John C. Dvorak: It was pre done. Yeah, but I want to play this.
This is a vetting a vice president and this came this was
from WBUR. Public Radio in Boston. Former Vice President
Joe Biden says he expects to reveal his running mate next
week. The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee made that
announcement at a news conference yesterday, the
vetting process of potential vice presidential nominees is an
invasive process. One person who's going through it likened
it to a colonoscopy. Among those believed to be on Biden's list
is US Senator Elizabeth Warren as WBUR. As Callum Borchers
reports, now Warren and anyone else being considered, already
went through some very probing questions.
Adam Curry: I am a graduate of the Jeff again, School of
broadcasting.
Unknown: You might like to forget your middle school years.
But if you want to be vice president, you don't have the
luxury. What were
you like in junior high school? Who were your friends? What were
your friends, like?
That's retired Admiral James to Veritas. recalling some of what
he was asked for years ago, when Hillary Clinton's campaign
vetted him.
When did you start dating? What kind of physical relationships
did you have? And you know, you get very personal very quickly,
at the time of his interrogation, Steve Ritas, was
a dean at Tufts, a former four star naval officer and Supreme
Allied Commander of NATO forces in Europe. And here he was
getting grilled about teenage romance. There was more to
obviously they wanted my taxes. They also wanted this is
interesting. I think my complete medical records and my dental
records. Ever every article I'd ever published, transcripts of
every school I'd attended. I remember looking at the stack of
documents, I was going to send them and it was well over two
feet.
And that's for just one possible running
Adam Curry: mate. You know, how do they how do they keep that
all secret? I mean, if I if you're one of these vetting
consultants, what a treasure trove your oppo research the
next time around? It seems
John C. Dvorak: like you're creating a dossier more Yeah.
Where's the information about Willie Brown and
Adam Curry: hey, do you want to do all the hair stuff now? It's
fine with me. I just want people to know I've I have a lot of
Corona stuff from Australia, etc. So just wanting to know
hang in there. I see you down under. Well,
John C. Dvorak: I didn't plan on it even though I've kind of
initiated it and maybe I feel bad about that now, but we can
get it out of the way. I've got a couple. I've only got a couple
of items. Not gonna go for too long.
Adam Curry: Okay. Why don't you kick I'm sure you have an
overview. You got an overview of something. Well,
John C. Dvorak: I do have an overview somewhere. I, you
caught me off guard, but let's do a couple of things first,
though, housekeeping. Okay. For one thing, note, there's a whole
video on how to pronounce your name. Yes, it's Kamala Kamala
Kamala, yeah. Not but Biden when he gave his decent camera, I saw
it. He said no, he said both. He said Oh yeah, a couple different
ways. I in fact in one situation which I have a clip of, he said
it two ways within 10 words.
Unknown: Okay, I need to hear this. This
John C. Dvorak: is the Kamala Kamala,
Unknown: that's what I asked Cameron is common would be the
last voice in the room.
John C. Dvorak: Camera like Kamala, yeah. So,
Adam Curry: you know, there's two things about you got to turn
your speaker's just a little bit I can't share can't get it up.
There's two things that I'm glad you're doing this. Let's get out
of the way. Okay. I really don't care. I it's hard for me. It's
it's a tougher, it's more of a mouthful to say, Kamala, it's it
rolls betting you say Camelot madness. I'm still coming back
through your speakers. It's crazy. It's not Comala we got
that. So. But it's like, Okay, fine. Everyone. You know, Tucker
Carlson got reamed by that idiot, Democrat consultant for
saying it wrong. And it's just, it's margin stuff to me. So is
the she's not eligible. She's not a natural born citizen. Oh,
Polly. That
John C. Dvorak: is such.
Adam Curry: How many times have we gone through that one? And I
would think that's something that the Democrats themselves
launched. Just like Hillary Clinton launched birtherism
against Barack Obama. I'm sure it's just it's just to distract
everybody from what's really going on with her. She's a
horrible person. Everybody sees it.
John C. Dvorak: She's a cop. Wow.
Adam Curry: Not a not a great cop. And you know, it's like,
and then there's the whole and this has been shut down. You
know, just go look at a Wikipedia. She is of course,
really Indian American or Asian American. If she wanted, she
could say she's Caribbean American, or West Indies
American. I don't know what she wants to call it. But on their
Wikipedia page, she identifies as black. So black people, you
got that you're done. It's you can't use that anymore. It's a
DDoS is now been hijacked. So now when they say black and
brown people, does that include a Das? No. She's black to me.
She's Brown, if anything, but okay. She identifies as black. I
think that's a that's a problem. Not for me. But I know who it's
a problem for. For voters.
John C. Dvorak: Well, it's funny to listen to the comments on
her. You had all the and they took cameras obviously to
Oakland where she was born or raised. And all that and they
went to the park during some big event and and all the black
women. Yeah, there's no problem with them. They're happy as a
clam that she's been paired
Adam Curry: well, but this is what the Democratic Party's
mainly on. Yeah, the black men. They want no part of this. The
black men, black lives matter. Don't care about black men
either. Is it their tool? They're a tool. Look at how many
black men do you see in leadership positions and Black
Lives Matter?
John C. Dvorak: Now it's like this like a Woman's March. Yeah,
let's play a couple of things. I don't have the rundown until I
can find but I do have a couple of little clips here and there
that I wanted to get out of the way including some some very
funny clips from C span where somebody called in
Adam Curry: so are we doing are we doing COVID Are we going
through with Camela this Camela Oh, I thought we were gonna
John C. Dvorak: Okay, so you want to jump right to COVID
Adam Curry: You know, people it's important for the rest of
the world. Well, I'll
John C. Dvorak: tell you why. Because these clips are funny.
They should be held.
Adam Curry: Oh yeah. Well, it's funny hold it for after the
Coronavirus
John C. Dvorak: I will say looking for the other stuff I
got a lot of COVID International updates but let before we do
that let's at least go to one quick bite and clip that came
from that announcement. And this is the this one I'm just as kind
of almost an ask Adam but it's not try this clip Biden old
saying
Unknown: the government the governor should thank me more as
the old saying goes Give me a break.
John C. Dvorak: When has Give me a break? Oh been an
Adam Curry: old saying oh, it's been around since the 80s
John C. Dvorak: It's not a saying yes it is saying is like
you know a stitch in time saves nine. Well, he didn't like say
it just like going like this saying this. As the old saying
goes get lost is the old saying goes I'm here.
Adam Curry: He didn't finish that he didn't finish the old
saying he only gave you half of it. Yeah, it's Give me a break.
Give me a break of that KitKat bar. We all know what he meant.
John C. Dvorak: Anyway, okay, let's go to COVID glad we did
that the rest of this stuff.
Adam Curry: Well, let me first show share some numbers from
Florida. You know, Florida all of a sudden was on the rise
stuff was on the rise. What's going on Florida. They can't
keep their shit together.
John C. Dvorak: If you want to do this, let me intro into that.
How about doing the COVID update USA from democracy now where she
exaggerates the problem.
Unknown: Florida and Georgia have reported their highest
daily death toll since the start of the corona virus pandemic as
the US recorded nearly 1300 New deaths from COVID 19. Tuesday,
Texas and California reported near record rates of infections
in Wisconsin pass the 1000 death mark, the big 10 and PAC 12
College Athletic conferences each voted to postpone their
fall sports seasons including football games, a multi billion
dollar industry and major source of revenue to universities.
President Trump lashed out against selling Fox Sports Radio
in an interview it'd be a tragic mistake to cancel football in
the fall. Meanwhile, in southwestern Georgia, a second
parishioner at the Stewart detention center of for profit
immigration jail has died of COVID 19. The 70 year old Costa
Rican national whose name hasn't been released is the third
asylum seeker to die in ICE custody in the last week alone.
Adam Curry: My goodness, hey, we're all dying here in Texas.
Thanks for the update. Amy didn't realize that. Why is it
that we can barely have anyone in the restaurant, but the buses
it's okay to ride in. And tell me how. Tell me how that works.
Okay, just tell me how that works. Well,
John C. Dvorak: you know, I'll tell you what, blesses our
public transportation and a very important to the working class
people.
Adam Curry: Okay, thank you. Thank you for this important.
John C. Dvorak: Nobody needs to go to a restaurant dad.
Adam Curry: The people don't need jobs either. Let's talk
about the Florida numbers. Yes, record numbers. Sure. Drug
surging. Luckily we have Fox 35 on our side
Unknown: as daily Coronavirus.
Adam Curry: I'm sorry, this is one of those were produced
recorded on this phone but it's worth it.
Unknown: Florida's daily Coronavirus cases jumping back
above 8000. Today, many of those cases are from down in Miami
Dade County. Approximately five us continuing to question the
numbers. And it turns out many of today's cases were actually
from weeks ago, the Florida Department of Health says a
backlog of 4000 positive test results were received today from
a lab in Miami. Some of those positive tests are from as far
back as June 23.
Adam Curry: Okay, thank you. So this is not the first time
Florida has done weird stuff with the numbers. So there's a
surge Yeah, if you dump all the numbers into the database on one
day, Oh, yeah. How I mean, you know, this is happening
everywhere. The UK has lowered their death rate their death
rate by 5400. You won't hear that a lot and won't be repeated
over and over and over again. What you will hear is that neck
gators are no good neck gators, you might as well just be just
be Tongue Kissing somebody. So they're so they're going to be
outlawed. Even though the CDC has said no such thing Fauci has
said no such thing Burks has said no such thing. Well,
John C. Dvorak: then what what what triggered this
Adam Curry: one test done by who was it? Universities at Duke
University School of Medicine now, if you look at the the
actual study and have been looking at a number of studies
in preparation for this show, they say well, you know, the one
we had was least effective. It really depends on the material
and we can't really say it 100% Sure. And I don't know if it's
really it. I don't think it's a published peer reviewed study.
But okay.
John C. Dvorak: Tina was somebody in California said Jack
about these things. It's coming.
Adam Curry: Tina flew back from visiting a friend yesterday on
Southwest Airlines. And they made very made it very clear no
gators and also no masks with an exhale vent. So New York
John C. Dvorak: flying back from where? Florida. New York is a
hotspot flying from one hotspot to another.
Adam Curry: She's badass that way, man. Honey Badger don't
give a shit. New York though, has they're starting the mask
force. The mask force and they will have mask force
announcements on all public transit every 15 minutes and
they've given a little script for the conductor's to read
John C. Dvorak: autonomous of Dogpatch must be getting a kick
out of this. Why? Well, he's mentioned before this was like,
you know, like a Sherea state that we've created for ourselves
with nothing to do with Muslims just the way it is just the way
all we're missing is guys in the street throwing acid in women's
faces. Don't give
Adam Curry: them any ideas. Crazy So the conductor's will
have to say stuff like masks are required on the subway. I look
out for you please look at me.
Unknown: Well, writers are required on the subway. I look
out for you look out for me wear a mask at all times.
Adam Curry: I'm new to Texas guy for some reason.
John C. Dvorak: That's pretty good. Requirements not quite,
not quite as distorted as the actual subway speakers.
Unknown: Thank you for wearing your mask today. Let's keep New
York healthy.
Adam Curry: Let me see if there's more. These are good.
They should take mine. Why did they why is it? Why should they
let that go? Oh, here it is. Oh, here's the one.
This is your conductor. Coverage all required? What do I need to
cover your mouth? And by my co workers are coming to the
training class. For anyone who wants to look under your chair.
That'd be that'd be cool. Did
Oprah deal?
Unknown: And thank you for riding with us.
John C. Dvorak: Oh, that'll be What if you take a duck about a
germ vector? Yeah. Subway
Adam Curry: Exactly. But don't open the restaurants. No, don't
you dare open the restaurants in the US. I mean, it's great. If
you look at the CDC website, they have a new and updated
graph where we're down, we're at almost zero. And it's you know,
it's whatever smoothed over average that they present. But
the graph is I put it in the show notes. It's so good. It's
just, it's over, but not in the rest of the world. We've got
everything cranking up, although, you know, the UK where
their numbers this is what I was talking about the the 5400
deaths they had to hear. Well, they had to take those off.
Because it turns out that the flu and pneumonia has killed
five times more people than Coronavirus, and last month. Oh,
that wouldn't surprise. So they're they're counting, you
know, flu, influenza and pneumonia. They're going through
the exact every, it seems like every country goes through the
same thing. In fact, so, you know, now they're kind of coming
back, we've all we've already had a, we had a Black Lives
Matter rally in the UK. But now as part of the template, it just
seems like we had locked down so you all lots of lots of media
just in your face telling you you're gonna die models, models
that, you know, 2 million people confusion, different charts,
daily updates, and then all sudden protests. Black lives
matter what police are killing black people. It seems to be
going this way in the UK as well. Here's the Labour member
of parliament, Don Butler.
Unknown: But I think in a way it shows you the bias. And the
assumption that happens when you see black people in a car, you
know, driving that they're automatically saying we need to
check that these people are here for the right reason that they
are not criminals. And we need to change that we need to change
that thinking. And that's going to take a lot of effort. And it
needs to be done quickly. So it needs to be quite intense. And
that's why I think it's important that I work with the
police. But organizations that have been working on this for
many years, trying to change the system that doesn't work and
over police is black people and criminalizes black people. And
yes, sometimes it's a difficult conversation, sometimes an
uncomfortable conversation. But it's a conversation that has to
be had. Because really this cannot be This cannot continue.
And in the light of black lives matter what we're trying to do
is dismantle the structural racism that takes place and that
person has said that the police the Met Police institutional
races, Chris addict doesn't like that term. That is that is not
something that she should be saying what she should be saying
is, you know, I lead an organization that is still
institutionally racist after 20 years. I need to stop that I
need to cut that institutional racism out of the metaphors and
we'll do whatever it takes. And that's what you should be
saying.
Adam Curry: I heard exactly the same that's going on here.
Police pulling people over for no reason you're black so you're
suspicious institutional racism. All under Black Lives Matter
banner. This a very different country. They don't have say the
least have 400 years of history in this regard. They just didn't
Did I just don't have that, that brand. But this is from only 20
years or 30 years or whatever it is. So I'm just seeing a
template here and I'm trying to see if there is a pattern with
con trees that you know, you get everything going, you get the
lock downs, you get strife, you're filled your heads filled
with information, then boom, here's a problem in your black
lives, people being killed by white people. And then
politicians are in the mix. And I hope not. But I think this is
exactly what's going to happen in Australia, and possibly New
Zealand. So you recall the producer who got really mad, I
played the Katie Hopkins clip, and we talked about that on the
show after that. So he, of course, responded to me saying,
man, and he, it took me, I really, Bob, and I've known Bob
for a lot. He's been sending me stuff for years. And I can't
forget that he's, he's angry. And he's in your foot, your New
York attitude, which I thought was funny. This, all this, all
this stuff being brought in. And I'm like, I went, I went 10
rounds with him 10 rounds. He was worth it. It was worth it.
And so I finally was able to say, Hey, man, look. That was
all I was sent. That's all I had, I have not received any
boots on the ground reports. Certainly not any clips that are
usable. And I really don't understand what's going on. And
you're bitching at me because I played the wrong clip. So I
think it dawned on him. And so he was able to and of course,
now he's flooding me with stuff. But it's really and I put all of
his updates in the in the show notes. But I think we can kind
of distill it down first, a give an update, just so you get the
urgency of the of what's going on. This is only Well, pretty
much in the Victoria, the state of Victoria. So the Melbourne
region. This is what they've been deluged with.
Unknown: First things first, there are 15,251 confirmed
aggregate cases of Coronavirus in Victoria. That's 331 new
cases since yesterday's Update, I'm saddened to have to report
that there are now 246 Victorians who have passed away
due to this global pen. That is in addition of 1919 further
deaths, the number increases by 18. It's the same as yesterday,
there's reporting done in in Quick Time, and sometimes
there's just a need to reconcile. So 246 is the
accurate title. It has only gone up by 18. But there are in fact
19 additional Victorians who have passed away. I can't
provide too much detail. But what I can I'll now go through
for you one female in their 50s one male in their 70s six
females in their 80s for males in their 80s for females in
their 90s and three males in their 90s.
Adam Curry: Okay, so that piece of information we here have been
trained to listen to, it's like, well, what were the ages of
these people. And if you break down the numbers 78% of the
deaths in Victoria are people who are in what they call aged
care nursing home. So the official narrative and actually,
I should probably read the summary from Bob because I
believe he has taken in the official narrative completely
and may not see some of the things that are going on, which
is why I think it's an interesting case to see if we
can find a pattern which starts with the old people. How is it
possible that any country at this point has not thought to
themselves we need to protect our old people but they didn't
do that for some reason and now and now it's in the news all
this is Draw this got him dude, you have to stop this. We should
figure this out. But here is his summary. virus was almost beaten
here. It has been in New Zealand it was coming in from overseas
travelers. Initially the government asked these travelers
to self isolate. It was quickly discovered they weren't. So the
government forced them into hotel quarantine for two weeks
at the government's expense. This was the magic answer. And I
don't think he's saying that cynically, everything was
working perfectly in every state and still does apart from
Victoria Melbourne. It's now clear the job was outsourced to
companies lowest bid style guards were fraternizing with
hotel patrons guards were lowering class were were lower
class trying to earn money, but many were also Uber drivers etc.
Other states had police and army in force in these hotels, but
not here in Melbourne. Lots of stories on why this happened
from trying to appease desperate hotel prisoners to low cost
bidding for guards to inclusion policy to higher all ethnic
types who knows the real reason there's now an inquiry into all
of this and being cynical Many think that it is advert overt
calls for the resignation of the premier a premier no one has
taken the full blame yet. So what happened is it got loose
and this has been immediately blamed on. On the people coming
returning for the lockdown will actually let me play the aged
clip here for a second.
Unknown: The state government has been forced to step in and
take control at three aged care homes, which have growing COVID
outbreaks. Jody Lee is outside one of the facilities in Altona
north and Jody things were getting desperate.
Mitch so desperate the state government says some aged care
facilities had been begging ambulances and hospitals to take
their residents that comes as many as struggling with PPE. And
to maintain staffing levels. It means that dozens of older and
vulnerable Victorians and now falling victim to neglect.
Adam Curry: So bad on you, Victoria. What I didn't know is
this incredible rivalry between the states. So we have Melbourne
and Victoria New South Wales Of course, we've got Western
Australia. Did you know how intense this rivalry was?
John C. Dvorak: Well, I I'm not there to feel it. So no.
Adam Curry: Well, I mean, I was there 99 year realizes 30 years
ago and people still had guns and seem to be an outgoing kind
of fu kind of cool people. That with a mix of American Dutch and
British influences. I've always enjoyed it very much, but it
seems like everyone's depressed and mad and Victoria being a big
economic region and also a big football region as in soccer.
But all the footballers they left because they got inside
they got tipped off. This is just what people are talking
about. Like it tipped off so they ran to a different state.
You cannot go you cannot pass the state boundary. You can't go
from Melbourne to Sydney. You will get shot in the head.
Dislike checkpoints and you cannot travel. Maybe you've seen
on the street people getting arrested rousted, no mask, boom,
throwing the girl on the street, on the pavement, taking them
taking them in 1000s of dollars of fines. And and I think that
they've gone completely insane from the messaging and the and
the belief that they would that they were that they had magic
that they had figured it out? No, because we had the top dog
Marie's the dog on I interviewed and we played some clips on the
show. And we talked specifically about Australia and New Zealand.
He said Well, if I'm right, if this follows the influenza
patterns, and it has airborne spread, it will show up around
flu season in Australia, which it is. And last year just as a
little little pointer in Victoria 900 people died of
influenza and this little ditty as
Unknown: students head back to school, parents and teachers are
increasingly concerned about how Coronavirus could spread,
especially in buildings with inadequate ventilation. John
Magnitsky studies viruses at the University of Florida,
there was a lot of controversy about SARS Coronavirus to being
transmitted or not being transmitted through airborne
routes.
Analyzing air samples in a hospital room, lead Minsky's
team found infectious virus can spread through the air up to 16
feet away from an infected patient through tiny droplets
called aerosols.
This is the smoking gun that everybody has been asking for.
Lindsey Morris studies how viruses travel through the air,
we're talking about a virus that is present in very small
droplets, tiny ones that we call aerosols, that can travel much
farther through the air and remain in the air for minutes,
two hours at a time,
Adam Curry: exactly as predicted. So I just want our
producers down under to know that I don't think anything
could have stopped this. This is so so viral, that you know, so
don't blame yourself and and and of course it's completely
political. I believe it's conservatives who run the state.
So here's a here's a piece from the local news. And I think it's
a liberal Member of Parliament or I'm not sure exactly what
their structure is, but a liberal political member of the
State who will be talking again about the premier stepping down
over this. So instead of hey, probably wasn't possible at all
to shut all of this down. And don't go so hard on yourself.
This is the focus of the day. You had
John C. Dvorak: all of those clients yesterday. Now you've
got new claims today that we just reported these guards were
taking cash in hand while also claiming job keeper payments and
also taking guests out to supermarkets and seven elevens.
And what have you. I mean, what do you make of all of that?
Well, this is a scandal of monumental proportions. I mean,
this is a complete fiasco. And not one single minister in
Daniel Andrews government here in Victoria has taken
responsibility for this fiasco, whether that be the Police
Minister Lisa Neville, the Health Minister Jenny McCarthy
costs for jobs Minister Martin Bakula, or indeed the premier
Daniel Andrews. I mean, there are allegations that security
guards were bonking those in quarantine. I mean, this is
quite extraordinary.
Adam Curry: Quarantine bunking everybody, it's got to be a song
quarantine bonking. So it's completely political. There's
warring with the states. That all sounds so incredibly
familiar. They thought that they had it. Oh, don't worry about
the old people. How short sighted is that? No, no, it's a
pattern. I think it's a pattern. This is not intended to give you
any truth of what's happening, and no one that I see in the
media there. And there's a lot that I've been sent has in it.
There's really no mention of China, that I'll mention that it
comes from China, which of course is where we really should
be focusing our attention. And now the country that for sure
had all the magic for sure had it all done. Oh my goodness. New
Zealand now has cases. And they're close to understanding
what happened
Unknown: and New Zealand officials are investigating the
possibility that its first kroner case in more than three
months were infected by imported freight. That country has gone
back into lockdown following the discovery of four infected
family members in Auckland. The
level that we are implementing here in New Zealand was not
implemented in Victoria. It was some weeks after the first cases
reappeared in the community. That is why we are responding
strongly and quickly again, for other
people who had contact with a family are considered likely
cases.
Adam Curry: Remember, the same thing that dogs said meatpacking
plants, it's all about the humidity, the stuff can hang
around for hours on end in that kind of environment. So also,
sorry.
John C. Dvorak: Well, that's a couple of things I want to
straighten out. One is that Daniel Andrews is is part of the
Labour Party. He's not a conservative. Okay, thank you.
So the I think the thing is really summarized by the fact
that we have like 50 plus percent of our deaths from old
folks homes that had that early clip you played they claim 79%
from old folks homes 78 So okay, 7878 like that was a Trump lie.
Yeah. So it's not a debt it's just like I don't understand why
people don't understand that basis and use your right you
just protect old folks homes I mean in New York they infected
the old old folks homes to the tune of 10,000 Dead well
Adam Curry: done yeah, yeah, that was a good one. So what So
I guess just back to the pattern for a second so you're gonna get
all the you're gonna you're gonna get the mass debate Don't
worry you'll get it this is not having one or not as to what is
the right mask How will you come back you're right I mean the
whole economy will be these people have no guns now they
can't do a we did we can't go out and say Oh, I'm gonna stand
around here with my gun at the Capitol and show people I'm
unhappy and I'll probably be left alone which there were none
of that recourse and New Zealand it's real it's already been just
kind of dead
John C. Dvorak: date for all practical purposes you must be
run by Brage never
Adam Curry: even checked in with Sir Chris Wilson a to see if he
was alive and be you know, it's update. I think he's to level
headed and he's in he's, I think he's more near Sydney so he
doesn't care. You know, Victoria screw those guys don't care.
That's state rivalry. It's nuts. Now on the therapeutic vaccine
and such front that's an interesting book
John C. Dvorak: before we leave the country rundown I want to
get these COVID clips. Okay. So let's go to the this is all from
Democracy Now. Except for the there's one from France 24 But
This is Democracy Now. This is the World Report.
Unknown: India reported more than 60,000 New Coronavirus
cases and 834 deaths Wednesday, nearly breaking a record set
earlier this week bringing India's official death toll to
more than In 46,000, Latin America remains the epicenter of
the pandemic with just 8% of the world's population and 30% of
global deaths from COVID 19. In Bolivia, morgues in the city of
La Paz are filled to capacity as bodies of COVID-19 victims have
been left uncollected in an open air spot. A police officer cited
residents fear of contracting the virus
Adam Curry: what is the what is the death ratio for India they
have 1.1 point 6 billion people and they really tightly packed
but you know there's a lot of hydroxychloroquine use there
outside a lot so
John C. Dvorak: she's she's she takes it to the to the extreme
to just Ms. Part of the anti drug number four it's number
port number port. Well, let's listen they were out France 24
handles talking about the some of the European action.
Unknown: While staying with Europe the Coronavirus appears
to be circulating at a faster rate here in France with health
officials thing the indicators use for tracking the virus have
clearly
Adam Curry: worse than wait a minute faster. What are they
saying here? Let me hear that again. Well,
Unknown: staying with Europe the corona virus appears to be
circulating at a faster rate here in France.
Adam Curry: Is this like the national pastime just to say we
suck the most?
John C. Dvorak: Oh, no, we're number one.
Unknown: Health officials thing that records tracking the virus
have clearly worsened in recent days. Now on Wednesday, the
latest government figures showed that over 2500 new COVID 19
cases were confirmed in the previous 24 hours. That's the
sharpest increase since May. And of the 600,000 tests carried out
across the past week over 11,600 came back positive. We can
listen now to what Francis Health Minister has been saying.
She was the bulk of them so you can be assured that we're doing
a lot of tests, over 600,000 tests per week. We've now gone
beyond 600,000 of those. We have also made masks available. Many
explanations have been given in order to help French people
understand the epidemic unique. Everything we do today so that
we don't have to go back into lockdown over your schools will
open at the beginning of its term as planned with a safe
sanitary protocol in place for businesses are up and running
and public transport has been running for several months with
compulsory mask wearing
or staying with the Coronavirus over France's north eastern
border. The wearing of a face mask has now become compulsory
in all public spaces in the Belgian capital. Over the last
seven days, a daily average of 50 cases per 100,000 residents
has been recorded in Brussels, pushing it higher up Europe's
leaderboard of hardest hit cities. Up until now the wearing
of masks had only been obligatory in crowded public
spaces and enclosed areas, like shopping centers.
John C. Dvorak: I think sorry, notice the word leaderboard.
Adam Curry: We love being on the leaderboard. I can open up I can
predict what's going to happen we need we need a shocker. In
the US we're getting little a little cocky on everything on
the masks and on the mask. We need a celebrity to die. What
happens as celebrity needs
John C. Dvorak: to get old celebrity if it's going to
happen.
Adam Curry: It should be someone who was spotted without a mask.
Or whose husband or wife didn't have Trump supporter
John C. Dvorak: James Woods, who James
Unknown: without that would not even have to go they're gonna
John C. Dvorak: have to find somewhere killing him.
Adam Curry: I already here he stays away from boats.
John C. Dvorak: But that's smart and stay away from small planes.
I'd say
Adam Curry: the shale above me might be one someone's gotta go.
I mean, the hammer at Han
John C. Dvorak: DA would be one to to take out if no no,
Adam Curry: no, no, no, no, no, it would Yeah. Oh no, that's not
gonna work. That's not gonna work. Don't know,
John C. Dvorak: I've I've been waiting for a celebrity to drop
dead from Corona. It's such a virulent problem in Hollywood.
It's filled with people that like crowds, people
Adam Curry: we want people we wouldn't miss.
John C. Dvorak: But this is not happening. I'm not seeing it. I
don't want to be condemned because I am on a Death Watch
for celebrities.
Adam Curry: How many celebrities there really are. And I mean,
there's a percentage. You gotta have wars at
John C. Dvorak: least. Someone's got to think of real
10,000 20,000 real celebrities that brand name celebrities.
Adam Curry: Hold on. People are suggesting we have suggestions.
Michael Moore, Phil Collins. Now that would be a shocker that
We'll be that's the kind of level you want why
John C. Dvorak: Phil Collins it anyway? Michael Morris funnier
it's, there's no newscasters they're out and about constantly
all the media, by the way is mostly exempt from many of these
rules and they can go floating around and they're floating
around a lot of them and they're some staying at home but most of
them float around nuts. I don't see it. I'm waiting. I mean, you
know, I know there are people that have died that tend to be
in an old folks home. And they, you know, well, sorry.
Adam Curry: So schools got a lot of notes from from teachers
about schools and homeschooling. So it's really the, we speak
from a very high point at High Point of high privilege. Here's
one of our teachers. You're talking Sunday show about how
many school districts were going to or talking about going to
online learning of this online learning in general, not just
homeschooling, but homeschooling through through the zoom. There
are two groups who this does not work for the first is the poor
who can't afford or don't have broadband or even dial up as
true. As for the second 30 plus years ago, when I lived in
Silicon Valley, this particular producer says I had a girlfriend
who taught kids with learning disabilities. This included
having been a principal at one that only taught kids with
problems like severe dyslexia using a unique system developed
by a woman in Seattle. At one point, we set up an office at
our home so she could do one on one consulting work with them.
Well, if there's one thing that was clear is that kids with
dyslexia, and there are other others who have far worse
problems require in person hands on one on one teaching to get
any benefit from school at all. Many were behind their peers
before the pandemic. So imagine where they are. Now that schools
are closed, standard online teaching for them just doesn't
work. And I found these before I retired, I spent eight years
working in the training department of a company that
made slot machines and software for running casinos, I created
hundreds of online learning courses and videos for employees
and customers, as useful as they were the need for in person
training kept our classrooms filled. If adults without
learning disabilities don't find online courses sufficient for
the needs. What does that say about kids with or without
learning issues. And these days, as you know, most kids have a
learning disability. Well, there's
John C. Dvorak: also the point that these kids aren't being
served with the instructor they already had a very poor or that
enthusiastic about school and they learn in the classroom and
even don't even go to the classroom. And then there's
situations like this to bring you find it.
Adam Curry: Funny. Just want to say the poor is where you have
two parents who have to work and the older child has to stay home
and babysit the younger children because they can't afford. Well,
there's just that's a lot of that. There's a lot of that.
John C. Dvorak: There's a lot of models for poor. Here's an
interesting story read, this is the WTF story of the week.
Adam Curry: Okay, from democracy. You know,
Unknown: a Michigan judge has closed the case against a 15
year old African American student who had been sent to a
juvenile jail in May, after she failed to finish her schoolwork
online. The girl who's known simply as Grace was released
from custody in July and it's now been removed from probation.
Adam Curry: This mean this story is a couple of weeks old, and
there was a domestic dispute situation. She the cops had been
there many, many times. She had been removed from the home
before she and her mother came to blows. And that's how Amy
presents it.
John C. Dvorak: Do we know it's the same story? Yes.
Adam Curry: Yesterday that is that is the exact story. Okay.
Yeah, that's it. Not that it's old. It's just I can't believe
that ran yesterday. And they're still they still haven't they
won't report what actually happened is just another orange
MAN bad.
John C. Dvorak: What are you saying? What do you mean they
won't report what happened? What?
Adam Curry: Yeah. All right. I want to get to two vaccines. But
first, this was surprising. This is a healthcare professional
doctor. She's triple board certified is an hands on
physician in Florida. And she was asked what I have to say
might qualify as a great question. Because I have not
heard it asked, what exactly does the CDC recommend when
someone shows up at your office? And they have COVID? Have you
heard anyone ask or answer that question?
John C. Dvorak: Well, how would you know that someone has COVID
when they show up at your office?
Adam Curry: Well, when they've been tested. Do you know what
the
John C. Dvorak: hell you're telling me? Well, somebody has
been tested and shown to be positive and they show up at
work. Now they
Adam Curry: show They show up at your doctor's office and they
say, Okay, I've been tested positive, and I have I have
whatever my symptoms. Okay. So what do you think the CDC
recommends?
John C. Dvorak: They recommend you throw them into the street.
What? Folks? No idea. Close
Unknown: recommendation by the FDA or the CDC, to doctors, what
is it, you are being told if your patient tests positive?
Here is what we're recommending you do. Let's say
literally nothing that I know of it is a stay at home in
isolation for two weeks, and then potentially either get
retested again or you know that even that is muddy. And I think
one of the biggest points throughout this is people have
become so fear based because of the the fear mongering
mainstream media that most people are living in their
amygdala, this reptilian fear base part of our brain. Yeah.
And when you when you do that critical thinking is out the
window. So people are not they've lost critical thinking.
They're reacting with this, you know, immediate response from
programming. So for me, it's look at medicine, it is not
black and white. It is called the art of medicine. It's the
practice of medicine, because we look at all kinds of things to
come up with a program.
Adam Curry: And she went into how she'll study, she'll go buy
some books, it looks as though stuff online, depending on what
ailment comes along that. It's not just like, Oh, you're here
with that, boom, you get this. In fact, there's no
recommendation from CDC or FDA. Go home and self quarantine.
Isn't that exactly when you should be? I don't know, taking
something and maybe some sink and something else. quesiton I
don't care what you do what it is. I find that bizarre.
John C. Dvorak: Yeah, you'd think Well, some people did. I
mean, they've a I will repeat this. I've repeated it before.
The first clip we played about COVID. Back in February, May, or
March was one of the Hollywood stars that gin was in this
situation. And the doctor immediately gave him that
treatment. And he walked you know, Spanish two weeks
hunkering down he was fine.
Adam Curry: I wish I remembered what that guy's name was.
John C. Dvorak: He was in Hawaii Five. Oh,
Adam Curry: I know. But I just can't. Can't seem to find it.
Okay, so now we're on to. So there's nothing Shut up. Don't
worry. You don't get anything till you're in the hospital,
which is where all the hydroxy Quark wins in combos studies are
from his people in the hospital when it's really too late, too
late to be using that. But there's no recommendation. And I
guess remdesivir is also you got to be in the hospital first.
Dad. Russia is now claiming they are done and shipping their
vaccine.
John C. Dvorak: And they were shipping it?
Adam Curry: Well, you'd think from the way everyone is saying
it's gonna suck. It's no good, questionable. We don't have
enough information. We don't know what's going on with them.
Yeah, because it doesn't say Maderna or any other US company
that's been pre funded and got pump and dump. And if you think
it's over No, no. It's on, in fact, this interview with Bill
Gates, the Mr. Vaccine, who set up the GAVI that is the vet
GATT, it's the gates something vaccine Alliance, but it's the
vaccine companies, other commercial businesses
government, and to some degree government and the Bill and
Melinda Gates Foundation. And it's really this interview,
which is on Christianna on poor except she had some guy from I
don't know, CBS or CNN interview gates.
John C. Dvorak: He said it wasn't it. Isaacson that was
interviewing him.
Adam Curry: I can't remember or maybe it was.
John C. Dvorak: Yeah. And he was at home. And he had a yes. That
made his head look like a like a giant ape. And it looks like
Adam Curry: he lives in some kind of medieval castle. Excuse
me. So the question came up about leadership. And I think
you mentioned this dawn, just the last show, Bill Gates. He's
like, we need more leadership on the on the vaccines more
leadership from the US are just not good. And what does that
mean exactly?
Unknown: You just said if we can get the US to show global
leadership, we've been retrenching from that from a few
years now. What do we need to do to show global leadership? Well,
it's reasonable straightforward. We would put 4 billion into the
special corner of I understand that the vaccine organization,
GAVI is created.
Adam Curry: Okay, so the first thing out of his mind is US
leadership would mean more money into the group that I'm a part
of. And I started $4 billion,
Unknown: the vaccine organization GAVI is created,
then, you know, we could raise the rest of the money from
others. Likewise, if we use Global
Adam Curry: sounds like he's got the financing, but he's but
someone said, hey, we'll match it if the US kicks in,
otherwise, we're not on board.
Unknown: And then, you know, we could raise the rest of the
money from
Adam Curry: this, listen to this, he is shilling for those
who said,
Unknown: then, you know, we could raise the rest of the
money from others. Likewise, if we use Global Fund, which would
then take on COVID, and so forth disease, that it would provide a
John C. Dvorak: second. If this is also important, Amy's got
more than, what 50 $60 billion dollars in the bank. What was it
he just cough it up? While he
Adam Curry: says Global Fund, it's only 20 more seconds. He
says Global Fund, that's him would kick in something, but
it's not just I'll kick in something that listen,
Unknown: which would then take on COVID is a fourth disease
that it would provide therapeutics for. Also, you
know, 4 billion there. So he's 4
Adam Curry: billion there are 4 billion there. So he says, I
think he's saying he'll kick in 4 billion if the US government
kicks in 4 billion. That what? He'd say that yeah. Now let's
listen to the whole. I don't believe he's that's what he's
saying. That's exactly what he's saying. Why isn't he say, well,
John C. Dvorak: I'll kick it in.
Adam Curry: He says that in Bill Gates's language, listen again,
Unknown: on that the vaccine organization GAVI is created,
then, you know, we could raise the rest of the money from
others. Likewise, if we use Global Fund, that's him, which
would then take on COVID is a fourth disease that it would
provide therapeutics for? Also, you know, for billionaire. So
Adam Curry: he's saying they would put in 4 billion, but he
needs 4 billion minimum from the US government. And I guess it's
a 12 billion, he'll need an extra four from someone else
he's trying to he's trying to raise the cash,
Unknown: you know, compared to the trillions of economic damage
or supplemental thing, you know, getting the international
response, showing our strong role to get that going, you
know, a billion is incredible bargain.
Adam Curry: And he coughed to. He's one of his tells
John C. Dvorak: ya, pls, before he says, an incredible bargain.
Adam Curry: So why do you think I mean, eight years? I agree
with what you're saying
John C. Dvorak: that, okay, well, let's just drop that,
because it's not important. Let's go back to the basis of
this whole back and forth, which is global global glow? Yes, yes,
yes, and Isaacson's all in on that. And gates is all in on
this, you know, this whole thing has been a promotion of
globalism from the get go. It's right from the get go right from
the beginning. We needed more global global leadership. And
it's like we're dropping the ball because we should be the
big global leaders. Well, here and
Adam Curry: here's the fun thing. Steven Moser, who is a
scientist in his own right, but he has taken it upon himself. I
think we might have played a short almost unintelligible clip
of these Talion. The doctor scientist who wrote a whole book
on exactly how the Coronavirus came to be, but it's only in
Italian. And it hasn't been translated. And you can barely
understand what the guy is saying. It was a couple shows
back to Steven Moser is a is a sign and he's been writing a lot
about about the virus and about China. And it seems, in fact,
now I sent this article to you that he wrote, that's what it
is. I sent this article to you about the origins of the
Coronavirus. But before I play that clip, Kerry is talking
about the fact that we actually can't create a vaccine that's
going to work and why
Unknown: why? Why China has refused to provide the complete
genome of the China virus to the World Health Organization to the
United States or anywhere else. If the Chinese provided the
matrix virus that is the original virus, the source virus
that they created, it would have meant admitting that SARS COVID
to the China virus was created in a laboratory. In fact, he
went on to say the incomplete genome made available by China
lacks some inserts of AIDS amino acids, which itself is a smoking
gun. So if you look at the incomplete genome of the China
virus that has been provided by China, you can see that there
are pieces missing that constitute a smoking gun. Now
the key question of course for those of us who are living
through a pandemic concerns the development of a vaccine.
Professor treato on this point is not optimistic. He says given
the many mutations of the China virus, it's unlikely a single
vaccine that blocks the virus will be found. Quote, at the
moment, 11 different strains have been identified of the
China virus, the AQa genetic line developed in Europe, the b1
genetic line, which took root in North America are more
contagious than the original strain originating in Wuhan. I
therefore believe Dr. treato says, at most a vaccine can be
found effective on four or five strains and able to cover 70 75%
of the world's population.
Adam Curry: So I guess we never got to the original genome.
Well,
John C. Dvorak: that's news to me. Well, I knew that doesn't
surprise me,
Adam Curry: it was a talking point for a while, and it just
kind of went away. And so the the way I understand that is you
can make a vaccine if you understand the genome, since
these are mRNAs. Or, or maybe they use the genome just to to
recreate the virus? I don't fucking know. I don't know.
John C. Dvorak: But we don't know. Neither one of us know,
but
Adam Curry: this doctor seems to know that if you don't have the
original genome, you're never gonna get a vaccine that works.
John C. Dvorak: He's his real argument is you're never going
to get a vaccine because this thing has not been a stable,
right. And that you might end that's why we've never had a
vaccine against the common cold. And that's why there was never a
vaccine against SARS. cov. One, if remember that thing when it
came flying through town, the SARS epidemic, and that was, you
know, could have been locked down during that. But we didn't
do that. We stopped testing. Right, we stopped but no, we
stopped testing on each one. We'd never worked, you know, and
so this, and there was never a vaccine for that. If you can't
do a vaccine for SARS, COVID. One, how are you going to do?
The other one, which these are lab designs? There's different
reasons for it. We've talked about it before other people
have talked about it. Nobody wants to discuss it. It's a
chimera.
Adam Curry: Okay, stop, stop, stop. Steven Moser wants to
discuss it specifically.
Unknown: The China virus definitely was not a freak of
nature that happened across the species barrier for Batman. It
was genetically engineered in the Wuhan Institute of virology
is P for lab to high containment lab P for lab, and a program
supervised by the Chinese military. And he calls it a
chimera. It's an organism created in a lab. The Wuhan lab
was actually built by the French, the French came in and
set up this this P for a lab at the Wuhan Institute of virology,
we advised against it. Because we said this is highly
sensitive, dangerous technology, we might not want to be handing
it over to the Chinese, the French being the French went
ahead and did it anyway. The ribbon cutting suburb ceremony
was in February 2017, after which the French were shown the
door and no French scientists were ever allowed back in the
lab. But the French are very involved. The French are also
involved because the head of the P for lab, Dr. Xu, Zhang Li whom
we talked about before, right, like Dr. Sure was at the Pasteur
Institute in France. And that's where she learned about how to
insert pieces of the AIDS virus into other viruses, to make them
more pathogenetic to make them more pathogenic to make them
more dangerous. So the French were involved.
Adam Curry: It's kind of interesting how the French are
not even brought up at all in this in this story. This is
John C. Dvorak: Oh, this is news to me. The only thing French
that came was that French Nobel Prize winning doctor who's
looked at the genetic sequence and immediately saw what it was
and everyone called him a crackpot.
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah, well, maybe this will help us
understand in part two of this as the US is, of course, also
complicit
Unknown: and the Americans are involved as well. Professor
route Barrick of the University of North Carolina was on the
receiving end of major grants from the National Institute of
Allergy and Infectious Disease. This of course, is Dr. Anthony
Fauci shop. He's a big proponent of gain of function research. He
has been since at least 2011 When he published an article in
the Washington Post advocating for it. And when this was
stopped at as Professor Barix lab, they moved the research to
China. So So Professor Barry can some American biologist have
been involved in the lab in past years, but this is what
happened. As soon as this research as soon as this virus
begin to show dangerous properties. The virus was more
infectious, the virus was more dangerous, and immediately the
People's Liberation Army Bioware Since people got involved, and I
can tell you as a China expert exactly why that happened, it
happened because everything in China is dual use technology.
Everything in China follows the rule of let the civilian support
the military. So as soon as the civilian vaccine project that
the Wuhan Institute of virology showed promise, the military
moved in and said, Oh, this has military potential. And then who
did you have come on the scene you have people like general
Chun Wei, the head of the PLA bioweapons program, you had
other people who were involved in, in the pls bioweapons
program, going into the lab and working with Dr. Sure, who
basically lost control of her own project.
Adam Curry: So if you take those all those pieces together, the
strain that we got in whether it was a mutation, I guess it was,
was actually much more contagious than what took place
in Wuhan itself. We really got screwed in this deal.
John C. Dvorak: Yeah, I would say and it looks like an act of
war, if you if you're going to take all these factors into
account as one of the reasons nobody wants to talk about it
being a created product. Because we don't really want to deal
with the aspects of well did it? Was it an accident? Did they do
it on purpose? Why are they doing it at all? What kind of
research are they up to? And try the ration measure the one
little, little aspects I'm writing an essay on this myself
pretty much the same information, which is that, you
know, they keep saying it's a bad or is this? Nobody can find
an animal with this virus naturally occurring within the
animals? No, there's no bat with this virus.
Adam Curry: So what you're gonna write an essay about this being
a created an Akai mirror created in a lab, possibly a biological
weapon by China.
John C. Dvorak: I'm not going with the biological weapon.
Thesis. I'm going with the thesis that it was an accident.
Adam Curry: Okay, that's good, because then you only get
canceled halfway. Nice knowing your divorce duck. Go ahead and
publish a piece everyone can point beyond cosmic weenie.
Yeah, no beat but people are going to point to it and tweet
it. And you know what they're gonna
John C. Dvorak: talk about on the show, pretty much the essay
has been discussed in its entirety on this show.
Adam Curry: I know. But why man? Why would you write that down?
Why would you leave a permanent record so easy to virally
distribute?
John C. Dvorak: Yes, Addison's, people need to realize that this
is we're being buffalo through its official stories.
Adam Curry: Well, maybe I can help get people interested.
There is no bat with this virus. Maybe I can get the younger
people interested in your work, since they are now also on deck.
Everybody your vape Crusader is here to save the day. Yes, we
have urgent headlines. Everyone is emailing me we've got USA
Today. big bold black letters. We've got news reports,
Unknown: it's not uncommon for Wake County teens to vape or
have friends who vape
I have a couple friends that do use it. And especially
classmates and those around me. You know, they constantly they
according to a new study from Stanford University, teens and
young adults who vape are five to seven times more likely to
get COVID-19
The fact that a lot of teenagers have that belief that, you know,
we're not going to be affected by COVID Because we're really
young. I think that study completely changed things around
and it showed us that no, we can all face COVID.
Doctors say the reason those who vape could be more prone to
COVID-19 is because they've shared their devices with others
and an e cigarette use can cause lung damage.
Adam Curry: Okay, that was just a mild headline. Oh, man, they
took it to another level. Wait, no, no. Bear with me. You'll ask
questions after you hear this report.
John C. Dvorak: Illinois representative Raja
krishnamoorthi is renewing his call for an a ban on E
cigarettes at least for the duration of the pandemic. And
that
Unknown: comes in response to a new Stanford University study
showing young people who smoke or use E cigarettes are five to
seven times more likely to contract COVID-19 Krishna Murthy
wants the FDA to require e cigarettes be removed totally
from shelves.
Adam Curry: Oh no. You're going to die of the COVID kids. We've
got a study to prove it. Do you think anyone sent me even a link
to the study? No. Did you ever question
John C. Dvorak: did you find this?
Adam Curry: Of course I found this study and I really
John C. Dvorak: do have a question. If you remember back
again. We're going to jump back to March February March. When
the first COVID stuff started being they always find it was an
interest anomaly. If you can remember this, we had Eclipse.
It was an anomaly that smokers were less likely to get COVID.
Do you remember that? Yes, of
Adam Curry: course I remember that.
John C. Dvorak: And that was how did that change? All of a sudden
there was
Adam Curry: also a study that propylene glycol, which is the
main ingredient of vaping. I think I'm saying that right
propylene glycol, I think that's what it is. That did us in
theater missed its actual medical study that showed it
kills Coronavirus on contact. So if you're vaping and you get
some Coronavirus in your nasal passages, you might actually
kill it. But and no one ever thought we talked about that no
one ever did this study. So I went to look at the study. Oh my
goodness. Oh my goodness. It's from Stanford. It's from
Stanford. Well, no, it's not from Stanford. Stanford was
reporting on it. The actual study is from the Journal of
Health. Journal of Adolescent Health association between youth
smoking, electronic cigarette use and Coronavirus, disease
2019. Results. COVID-19 diagnosis five times more likely
for people who exclusively use E cigarettes.
John C. Dvorak: But wait, wait, wait, this is true in 2019.
Adam Curry: John, I know thank No, it's not not. It's COVID-19
John C. Dvorak: Oh, COVID Oh, sorry, I've
Adam Curry: done this is from May,
John C. Dvorak: May.
Adam Curry: People who are dual users, which means you smoke
cigarettes. And and you use E C and E i use a vape. So it's dual
user, you're more like 6.8% times more likely to get COVID.
And if you smoke, well, it's actually eight times more likely
to get COVID. So forget that. We heard that wasn't true in the
beginning. Who knows that may have changed. What no one
mentioned is oh, by the way, you're eight times more likely
to get COVID. If you smoke cigarettes, no one mentioned
that why? Why the state Illinois, the state of Illinois
as part of the big master services agreement, they need
people smoking in order because every cancer patient they get is
tallied against this huge payout they're getting from the tobacco
companies, we've been through this several times, you're gonna
look at the Masters or things master state's agreement. And to
offset offset people smoking less. They came up with all
these financial instruments, which were kind of based on
Well, we're gonna get these payouts for all these people
over time and people started to smoke less and less tobacco. So
I'm moving to vape. So they have to kill off the vape entirely
and introduce the i cos I QoS. I quit ordinary smoking, which
just 15 days ago, got the FDA nod to be marketed as an Mr. T
p, which is a modified risk tobacco product. But what is the
study? What actually did they do? Well, it was an online web
survey. That would take approximately 20 minutes and
4000 people signed up and that's how they came up with this
scientific evidence.
John C. Dvorak: It's just an online self selecting survey.
Yes, sir. Well, that's useless.
Adam Curry: But did you hear how it was reported? All we got to
ban it? We got to ban it.
John C. Dvorak: Well, yeah, we obviously knew how it was
reported. And it's a way it's going to be reported but who was
behind it? That's the other thing. Well, I would say backhoe
company sponsored this self selecting online survey that
became published in one of the journals
Adam Curry: when there's only really one that matters anymore,
which is you know, the formerly known as Philip Morris. They're
the ones that wrote off their jewel. Their jewel purchase.
There was there was a disclaimer in here that some funding me see
was from some Institute and I presume that funding sources the
research report in this article was supported by the Taub ta u
b. E. Tao research faculty scholar endowment to Bonnie
Halpern, Bonnie Halpern, Felsher. Additional grant
support from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute and the
Food and Drug administer durations Center for Tobacco
Products? How could the FDA put their stamp on something like
this? And how much did they have? How do you hate all
John C. Dvorak: these people for a waistline survey? Web Service,
sign up for Survey Monkey and do it yourself?
Adam Curry: Exactly. So I don't know, maybe someone can help
with the, with the Tao. That actually Oh, okay, this is
Stanford deal. Okay. So its funding came through some
endowment at Stanford, and they farmed it out to the Journal of
Online health people did an online survey. It's
unbelievable. So I would say, this is a scam. And just pay
attention. This is your you can use this as what we call that
it's the Gelman amnesia effect. And people who understand vaping
have heard about this, if you've listened to the show, you're
going to see these headlines, people won't read them, they'll
just you catch COVID Five times quicker man, and the gall of
them to say between five and seven times because mixed, they
didn't say if you also smoke cigarettes, you have a higher
percentage that you could catch Nana, they just say five to
seven. It's obviously a PR ploy.
John C. Dvorak: But that's the way it's done. We've talked
about this many a time that we should do something like this.
If you don't listen to know what to say people who listen to long
format podcasts live longer.
Adam Curry: Excuse me, people. That's actually not bad. People
who listen to three hours of podcasts. Now we got to come up
with the right messaging.
John C. Dvorak: We can do long format, that's, you know, two
hours plus,
Adam Curry: I mean, I would prefer just be people who listen
to no agenda. Just don't. That's you
John C. Dvorak: can't ever do that. So don't die. And that
used to fly back in the day, but no, no longer. Okay.
Adam Curry: I just want to say I think that's fair. People will
listen to no agenda live longer. Proof.
John C. Dvorak: It probably do. Yeah.
Adam Curry: It was just that one really. I thought that was so
interesting. And, and I'm sure that USA Today took money for
it. And it looks like one of these local, like I've seen on
local stations.
John C. Dvorak: So I have a feeling is probably a video
press release that went out. Now.
Adam Curry: I think it's a local by. I mean, I don't think it's a
video. It's not they're reading the story.
John C. Dvorak: Okay, well, then this is just a press release.
Adam Curry: It's maybe a native ad.
John C. Dvorak: Kind of maybe, I mean, that's a long shot. As far
as I'm concerned,
Adam Curry: hey, we're going to advertise our new device on all
of your affiliate stations. We'd like to
John C. Dvorak: deny native advertising that is just that's
just kind of a just a plain convincing. Look. We're gonna
spend a lot of money but that's not the same as native
advertising.
Adam Curry: Okay, it's pre native ad, but it's
John C. Dvorak: pre advertising. You don't even do a native,
whatever it is. It's not native ads for this bullcrap. When it
comes out, you're not sure how
Adam Curry: can I just tell you the reason why. The reason why
the number one reason why, according to this study, why
there's that huge increase of possibility of contracting
COVID. Why? When you hear that, what do you think you think, Oh,
wow, it's about the smoking. It's about the inhaling. Right?
John C. Dvorak: Well, I thought they said it because passing the
thing around and you catch somebody else's spit.
Adam Curry: The number one is because people who vape touch
their face more. That's the conclusion of the study. Really?
Yes. The conclusion. It's not about what you're inhaling at
the set. you're inhaling vapor. No, tobacco is not good for your
health anyway. But the problem is people are touching their
face. And that's what this headline is about instead of
kids if you're vaping you shouldn't vape but don't touch
your face. But now Now we're not going to help any citizens out
with any news they can use. Let's scare them
John C. Dvorak: yep, that's our news media. What are you going
to do? What are you going to do they suck
Adam Curry: that's a good opening clip. Excellent. Well,
we don't suck and with that, I'd like to thank you for your
courage and say in the morning to you the man who put the C in.
Cigarettes are just as bad as vaping John see the back. It
wasn't random
John C. Dvorak: or any new ministry out of curiosity in the
morning rush ships to see boots on the ground, feed their subs
in the water. And all the dames knights out there.
Adam Curry: Yes. And they hearty and hello big in the morning to
the trolls in the troll room. Let me count you hands up
trolls. 1557. Yeah, we're good. We've been constantly about over
that 15 On on Thursday is 1518 is kind of a mark for the second
Thursday. Yeah, the troll room is where you can hang out during
the live shows. There's also podcasts on the stream that you
listen to simultaneously. It's like a multimedia type deal.
You're listening to the podcast, you're trolling along with your
other trolls and the troll room. While you're there. Ask Doug
Anyone can tell you have to do it for an invite to no agenda
social.com It's really true. We say that consistently. So don't
just go there get an invite from the from the troll room, that
hurdle is there for a reason. And sign up for no agenda.
social.com This is our federated social network is a great signal
to noise ratio. And I know but people love it because it was
down for for a little bit, a day or two ago. And the amount of
freakout I see shows that people really do enjoy it. So go have a
look. No agenda show. No agenda social, then we would like to
thank our artists for episode 1267. We titled that one the
trust stamp. And it was Darren O'Neil, who came in with a
simple, but very effective, great reset button that looks
dynamite on a walk back white background webpage. And
honestly, I think we should say that. Remember, this is album
art. So when you see it on your screen and you're working on it,
it may look great, but it's going to be quite tiny.
Everywhere it's posted. It's really only 512 by 512. That's
pretty much the dimensions that it has. And in most podcast apps
it'll be even smaller.
John C. Dvorak: Yeah, it'll be shrunk and people were
Adam Curry: doing way too much imagery gallery letters like the
monopoly art was was nice idea but it that doesn't translate
you don't see
John C. Dvorak: even colors gags are in there. You don't
Adam Curry: you don't see the gags it's very hard. Very, very
hard.
John C. Dvorak: Well, I would also mention the piece that was
done that appeared next to Darren is there is peace by also
by Darren which is the purchase denied, which is the one you
liked actually better until I kind of talked you out of it. It
talked you off the ledge you did lot of small type it's a funny
gag. But is this not attractive? Compared to the reset? Oh, this
Adam Curry: was the your payment method was declined. Please get
the COVID-19 vaccination try your purchase again. Yes, I
thought it was funny from an iPhone perspective, because it
was the iPhone dialog. But you did talk me off the ledge and
you were right. And that's exactly what happens as an
artist I'm sure you're you're looking at it. Like I was great.
I put this in and he kind of lose sight of the fact that it's
going to be pretty small. Man and no agenda. I can't have to
blow it up to even see what it says I can't even read our
names. It's too bad because well, there's a lot of good does
it mean so? The no agenda Monopoly board? Which if you
haven't, you should look at it. Every single place that's a
property is funny. So you got the black lives matter with
Trump Tower?
John C. Dvorak: Yeah, even if you blow up to full size. Oh,
can't see it. You can't I would love to have that on the wall as
opposed to a nice big piece of Yeah, one or one foot by was I
say one and a half feet by one and a half feet 18 inches by 18
inches. Beautiful. Yeah. Nice poster
Adam Curry: chess on the wall. So no agenda art generator.com
If you do want to be critiqued for all the mistakes you make,
and once in a while do that now. Go to our new things. It's not
one of our new things, but we're we take it seriously. There's so
much work that comes in and please everybody go to no agenda
art generator.com Look at submitted art. You could just
see 1000s and 1000s
John C. Dvorak: some of the filthy pieces we pass over Yeah,
that's in there
Adam Curry: too. I mean, we're up to 1700 No 17,268 pieces of
artwork in the Art Generator 10 times as much more than 10 times
and we have episodes. Thank you so much, Darren, thank you to
all the artists for bringing us the value even just being able
to talk about is valuable. Having to use our brains to
figure out what to work best with pops. Thank you so much. No
agenda Art Generator calm. We really do appreciate it as we do
in our value for value system with executive producers and
Associate Executive Producer shows who have supported the
show financially could not do it without that, because we just
can't do this show with any other form of funding. And we're
going to thank them right now.
John C. Dvorak: We could but the show is stink the show. Well,
yeah,
Adam Curry: the show would suck. And we should do it one time, we
should just do a show with ads and no donations. Just phony
ads. We'll just set
John C. Dvorak: up some phony ads. Like every system. We're
not doing that today. No, we're starting by thanking people,
including Jeffrey Rosen, who came in with $1,000. Wow. And he
did as your short comment, here's what was like the empty
box. I looked up rows and I looked up donations or find him
I could not find anything so unless you have a note from him,
he's gonna have to send something else in to get his
note read.
Adam Curry: Let me just double check for one second rows in
double,
John C. Dvorak: you can double check while you go to the next
one. Sure. Anonymous for $33.33 This donation makes up for the
shows cut from the dream job I lent makes up the show's cut.
From the dream job I landed after receiving in a jobs karma
Ah, it worked. I threw in an extra $100 That would have gone
to supporting projects but those douchebags seem more concerned
about changes and changing the language of their application to
conform with acceptable community guidelines by removing
words like Master and blacklist apparently because he's gonna
buy you know some software to discuss do with the ownership.
The ways to file complaints about them using their privilege
don't seem to work when I saw an ad that said consider donations
to these organizations that were all BLM I made my mind up to
donate to no and Jed and no agenda instead. I challenge all
producers to do the same. Nice. Jingles rubber lizer he says
Webalizer but I think Webalizer maybe I don't know Webalizer
Webalizer double karma for my sister and her Spanish as your
special needs dog.
Adam Curry: Okay, the robot lizer and what was the other
thing I'm sorry?
John C. Dvorak: Just double karma. Oh, a double

Adam Curry: You've been deemed deuced as your bumper sticker.
No agenda. It's epic shit.
Unknown: You've been deep deuced
John C. Dvorak: I'm in Portland at the moment helping my parents
to get the family house ready to sell not COVID related I noticed
that 90% of the people walking around outside are not wearing
masks. Damage to San Francisco where I'm living now. Before I
came up to Portland, I was yelled at by a lady across the
street who said hey, wear a mask save a life. I threw up in my
hands and yelled back. We're outside you idiot and pointed to
my brain. My parents live in a quiet part of town. So nothing
crazy to report so far. Can I get a little Queen a vocal fry?
You can dig that one up. That's I think that's the New York
Times lady. I can't remember her name for some unknown reason.
You guys are the best gunner.

heartland and the Arabian Peninsula. Good day, gentlemen.
Please, please accept my latest contribution to the cause. And
he sends us $333 Thank you very much still I believe in he's
locked up still in Saudi Arabia. Here's some info requested on
the last show. If it's not yet been explained G two is someone
said they wanted to hang out with the keeper and I and get
the G two on Austin and many people that just goes to show
many, many people said dude that made us military intelligence.
jito you should know that. Interesting how many people said
that to me, John. I imagine the producer emigrating to Austin
Can the grading we'd like you to prepare him something called an
IP B is an intelligence for preparation of the battlefield,
which will cover the weather enemy's situation go slow go and
no go zones, etc. So Adam, You'd best get on that done harsh this
year was limited to just 10,000 as opposed to the normal two and
a half million. Yes, this is where we were we were
questioning if autonomous of Dogpatch had been to that.
Pilgrims had to arrive early enough to do health checks and
endure a two week quarantine dedication. Once the pilgrimage
started they were color coded using umbrellas backpacks and
such and maintained masking social distancing frequent
temperature checks throughout the entire process. Saudi Arabia
really does an incredible job executing this annual event
which is an epic logistical undertaking. Adjusting for such
a small number must have been quite refreshing. I spent the
Haji eat holiday. How to print charge. Is it eat it eat isn't
it? Yeah, eat?
John C. Dvorak: Yes another celebration.
Adam Curry: Doing some boots on the ground photography around
the northwest part of the kingdom and accepting rides from
random strangers like mom told me tow I saw more of this
stunning country ate some delicious goat, probably a white
one. And best of all finally got to experience the frenetic
majesty of our local camel race. This was a bucket list item and
a top to your travel experience. Ibrahim, one of the random
strangers even named his two year old racing camel after me
at least for that one race. Camel Dave came in sixth place
and place in case anyone was wondering. Finally jobs karma
seems to have worked as we've been given verbal confirmation
that we've been unfired yay. And remaining employed until the end
of the year just in case our please hit me again, as I'm
unwilling to take any chances until I see something official
in writing. And that is from Sir Dave, Duke of America's
Heartland in the Arabian Peninsula. And I have an
additional note that he sent a request for his daughter Danny
Sibella special karma for her as she is switching schools this
year. And we'd love to get started off right with some new
school karma. That of course requires a goat.
Unknown: You've got karma
Adam Curry: and on a personal note. He he is a photographer.
And he has been posting stuff on Twitter, including the camel
race. He made this beautiful shot somewhere in Ireland where
he was in these travels hitching rides from strangers. And it's
and the keeper fell in love with it. She said I want to buy it.
He sent it to her just sent it to her beautiful print. Ready
for framing. This guy is so and he hasn't seen his own family
for what six years now? I think
John C. Dvorak: yeah, pretty much he's been locked in a while
Adam Curry: he's been locked up man that is so wrong. So wrong.
Well karma from all of us and we look forward to seeing you guys
in Austin again when you get out.
John C. Dvorak: Next analyst is Michael Harrington from Grand

I last donated so I humbly request a good deed douching got
it.
Unknown: You've been deed deuced
John C. Dvorak: the shows have been highly entertaining and
insightful and I thoroughly enjoy listening to them as I
hike around the Grand Teton National Park. Receiving dirty
looks from fellow hikers wearing masks. I refuse to participate
in the sheep charade. You're outside Hi King I recently
finished reading the Sci Fi novel doomsday book published in
1992. About a time traveler and a global pandemic incidentally
on page 336 And in a forward looking nod to Banyan the phrase
Extreme Unction appears.
Unknown: Function yeah now
John C. Dvorak: I highly recommend the book to the no
agenda audiences, doomsday and who wrote it? Please keep up the
great work and know that the grizzly bears are forcing are
forced to listen to you guys as I play the download from my
phone on speakers to alert the bears of My presence on the
trail instead of me constantly yelling Hey, bear, like some
back country jerk. Thank you for your current you know if you can
get a little methyl mercaptan a word with the I think it'd be
methyl methyl mercaptan What's this? There's two elements to
skunk scent. Oh, it's methyl mercaptan and dichro Total
sulfide. And methyl methyl mercaptan gives an odor that was
probably dead Barraca probably smell it a mile away and they
stay they stay away.
Adam Curry: Is this something you can also use on Antifa?
John C. Dvorak: Well, I haven't gotten a sprayer would do the
trick but you're gonna get some on you and that's really a
problem. I mean, this stuff will leach through glass. It's really
smelly. Oh my anyway humbly requested jobs cover for all

John C. Dvorak: hitting the mouth in 2016 by one of my best
friends Seth like to call him out as a douchebag as he has not
donated in a while COVID has been a real sob for me and my
fellow barbers and hairdressers. So a jobs karma is appreciated.
Can I please get a this will kill you to the head and a look
at that juice. Another story to be told. Thank you guys for

Unknown: this. Kill you. Oh my gosh. Can you see that juice?
Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs for jobs.
John C. Dvorak: You can take this one.
Adam Curry: This is from Stoss Gomberg three to 133. Very nice.
Look, here's the deal. My buddies and I are on the way
excuse me, to my bachelor party. And I thought what better time
to assert my privilege over the group that may be coming a
night? Clearly I'm doing the work. Yes, we love that.
Speaking of doing the work, please call up my buddies. I
gotta do it. Marcelo. Boris and Vlad marsello hit me in the
mouth over a year and a half ago and I haven't missed the show
since wish I could have learned about no agenda prior since I've
been a skeptic of the M five M since I can remember. And an
avid hater of the M five M since they decided dogs on cars and
binders full of women were the biggest gripes for a
presidential candidate. Oh yes binders full of women over how
far we've come or not. Now more than ever, I seemingly can't get
away from the M phi of m and talking points as they permeate
into every nook and cranny of our culture individualism and
open discussion have taken a backseat to activism while
dissent is now radicalism and silence is of course violence.
The cultural pendulum has swung 180 degrees from the McCarthyism
of the 1950s and no stoppage to the hammering of the noodle gun
is in sight for fear of losing the movements momentum, the
result, the rest of us simply trying to humbly make a content
life for ourselves have become despondent feeling it's just not
worth the potential raucous to speak our minds. And that is
where you do on the no agenda show have swooped in to ease the
melancholy providing a twice weekly respite from the obtuse
and unreasonable. So thank you, I realized this is turning into
Warren Piece. So briefly, I emailed you both earlier this
pandemic about choosing a mic for more regular virtual court
appearances. as I had hoped you fought over what the best choice
was. The advice helped. I went with John's recommendation. He
did this not on a single thread he asked me separately. What did
you recommend?
John C. Dvorak: I don't know. No. I probably recommended a PR
40 for him
Adam Curry: and That's was interesting because I remember
this note, and he said, we're looking at a PR 40 I said, Yeah,
that seems to be the right one. Maybe it's a different note.
John C. Dvorak: No, maybe I said something different. I don't
know. I can maybe
Adam Curry: I can. Maybe I said, so. That's what I remember.
Anyways, I've tried hitting my sizzlin sweet fiancee Giuliana
in the mouth, but DeVore acts let's call it at times,
insensitivity borders on triggering her. Notwithstanding.
Notwithstanding, she still asks what the no agenda guys have to
say on a topic. She's a keeper. Her birthday is today, August
13. If you would, please add it to the list. Yes, she's added
for the roundtable Manhattan's marijuana. He's got that one at
it. And thank you for your courage gratefully, students
weeknights, or Gomberg of the Northeast legal aisles. And we
look forward to seeing you at the round table. Thank you very
much. Thank you for your support and go easy on her.
John C. Dvorak: insensitivity Yes, yes. Yes. Well, I mean,
it's possible. I mean, when you get to a certain age, you're you
just don't put up and
Adam Curry: you're a lot and you're allowed to I think it's
when you say that woman I think that's the problem. That woman
that's the trigger.
John C. Dvorak: That woman think I don't don't remember ever
saying that woman. Okay. What was in reference to who? That
woman? Okay, well, I
Adam Curry: guess probably some horrible woman. Horrible. Ha ha,
he got it. He's larceny. Well,
John C. Dvorak: that's it that would be commercial. Keith
Larson Long Lake Minnesota nuts. 250 becomes Associate Executive
Producer. And he wrote a note in an email and I have printed it
out. Okay. Hi, John. Love your show. I actually did work today.
Women, your shows.
Adam Curry: Hey, John, love your show. What am I? Um, I would he
said I'm out of the script now.
John C. Dvorak: No, he said, Hi, John. Love your show. I think he
meant your show. I was hitting the mouth bike. You're out of
the script. I'm just reading that. No. I just loved the show.
Wasted jet flying over the house.

mice. Very funny. If that is allowed. In any case, I'd like
to point out that all Minnesotans are not left wing
defund police morons. Oh, come on. Yes, Norwood and America are
two towns that merged but couldn't come up with a new
name. So they just combine them. Norwood and young Norwood Young

John C. Dvorak: Roderick Linhart and Charlotte, North Carolina to
a 157 to Defour IgM had been meaning to donate for a few
months. So now I'm returning from the Wuhan flu. But alas
work has gotten the better of me. To my surprise I was only 75
bucks away from knighthoods and starting to donate in 2014 So my
donation is in four parts is get some accounting. And he says 69
cents for Rocky Foster who has continued is who has yet to
donate and continue sinking further into the douche abbess
and he had to call him out for that. 125 for Emma Foster,
there's only two and it goes on if people haven't been over to
see the no agenda mass so that they can silently punch people
in the mouths in line at the grocery store Shame on them.
Keep up the good work boys I included a pic of my egregiously
attractive wife Lesley. Happier leave anniversary happy early

Spokane, Washington. As we start to wrap this up. This is a
pretty good list. $200 credit three cents. First did he do
wishing you got it?
Unknown: You've been deed deuced.
John C. Dvorak: A former school principal. And I was surprised
by your concern. Last show about education. The pandemic is great
news for education because it will force education to change.
Hopefully, Adam did you take a class to invent podcasting?
Could a class have taught you to do that? Certainly not. Your
pirate radio station would have gotten you just suspended. What
we need in education is more opportunities for kids to get in
and mess around with stuff they care about. That's what real
education is. That's why the school I'm creating now is about
helping kids do just that. And he has a web address is SD L dot
Academy. That looks interesting. Easy enough. SDL dot Academy.
Our education system is all about control and compliance.
It's not about learning. But I find crazy is all the work I did
two years ago to get school principals in my district to
change the dress code. And finally allow kids to wear hoods
and hats mostly. And now all the kids will be wearing masks. That
just cracks me up. Talk about poetic justice. Also no agenda
has helped me to be more critical and increase my faith
in Jesus in the Church of Latter Day Saints. Not pushed me away
from it. Oh
Adam Curry: no agenda show. It brings you closer to God.
John C. Dvorak: You do it we could do a survey. More 1000
yellow and green jello and carrots jingle request. That's
true. Jethro from Spokane Washington. Wait just once.
That's true. Now he doesn't there's some green he said. He's
got hashtag green jello and carrots. Oh, okay. green jello

Adam Curry: nutsert. Right, but we don't have a jingle from that
to know.
John C. Dvorak: He just puts it in there. Oh,
Adam Curry: yeah. Hey, man. Greencare green green jello and
carriage to you too. Yeah. I'm keeping that in. I'm just gonna

email my full comment. And he has had long comment, which is
close to three, four or five pages, but I'll read some of it.
Some years ago, I picked a monthly subscription
contribution to the best to the Financial Times I felt your
podcast is at least that valuable. And I went to the
subscription payment because I thought I had good intentions I
was too lazy to make a regular contribution. Otherwise, so
subscription put it in autopilot. I was used to my bank
bill to pay the function shock to avoid voided fees for both
the nav goes on with his details. I was delinquent on
raising my prior 44 dot 42 monthly contribution for a while
because I had already noted and he goes on with some more
details. I might be interested for you or listeners to have a
value benchmark to Financial Times as $585 per year, which is
4875 a month to Wall Street journalist for 67 dot 88 per
year, or 338 99 a month New York Times is $39 every four weeks
when I started my peg, this is a financial guy. He's giving us
some tips on what kind of don't you know if you're putting out
585 bucks for the Financial Times which we kind of gave up
on you might want to think about donating to us. He says the New
York Times is now the most expensive something for
listeners to think about how they value the show. Don't look
at the low price trial subscriptions for these
publications. As most of you have already been listening for
free for months or years already support the show. Henry Barron
out put up post with no jingles no karma and that will end are
the executive and Associate Executive producers for short

listener donor since 2014. He's been on a you've done some
random donations throughout the time and he says he passed
$1,000 A while ago. And although I see signs every once in a
while that remind me to send a note I recently found the reason
to pull the trigger on my knighthood. My best friend's
wife who's my smokin hot wife's best friend was diagnosed with a
brain tumor and she just started treatment today my buddy
mentioned this is her first of 33 treatments so I knew what I
had to do. I'd like to be knighted Sir Brian of the
northern South towns, but more importantly, give her an F
cancer karma from my buddy's wife along with everyone else
who's forced to deal with this crappy disease, especially when
they have to go it mostly alone due to COVID rules. Stronger
Together love and light and thanks for all you do to help
save the universe one show at a time says Brian See you at the

John C. Dvorak: mouth I want to start the second half off with a
with a quiz for you.
Adam Curry: Is it an ask Adam or just a plain old plain ol quiz?
John C. Dvorak: It's not an ASCII. This is a I want to tell
you how to identify the person saying in the morning in this
clip.
Adam Curry: Oh, hold on a second. Would it be titled in
the morning? Yes. Okay, here we go. I'm going to listen in the
morning. Kaylee Yep. Ah yes, I recognize that voice in the
morning. Is that your potential end of show I so
John C. Dvorak: well, that one and the other one which is the
which is a long ISO but it's I think it was still work at the
end of the show, which is the they are stupid. I so from
Kamala Harris.
What else do we know about this population? 18 through 24.
Adam Curry: They are stupid. No, that's way too long. I have this
How about this? Wait. I think this is what someone says was so
much sent me. No, no, no, no, this is I have this. We just
played this one. I guess
Unknown: this will kill you.
Adam Curry: I think we've already done that one has been
done. Yeah. How about this one?
He's kind of a little bit racist.
As Ben Shapiro, he's kind of racist. I like it to it. Can we
use that?
John C. Dvorak: I don't know. I'd kind of like Kaylee's thing
in the morning at the end of the show. But you can use either
one. I don't care. Let's do I started listening to C span.
Adam Curry: Yeah, I watched a lot of it myself.
John C. Dvorak: Well, I caught the colons after the bite. It's
the
Adam Curry: best part. Hello, everybody knows this.
John C. Dvorak: So I have a few I got four clips. Nice. I got a
Democrat. Probably two Democrats, two Republicans. And
I'll start with the Republicans and then this would be the first
one. These are scattered around on the list. So this one is more
call ins sick.
Unknown: The only thing I can say if they get in office will
be ruined. And she will become president if they get in.
Because they're gonna get rid of Biden because he's already sick.
Why is he sick? You know why he's sick?
Go to Robin next.
Adam Curry: Ah, you know why he's sick. And we're off to
Muncie. Hello. So that's good. In fact, you know, hold on a
second. That is by some odd, odd. No, it's borderline it was
it was that was fun.
John C. Dvorak: You got a kick out of it. Mostly the segue that
made it worse. Of course. You know, a sick auntie. This is the
waterglass one which is this is a I think this was a Republican
I saw sorry but that was Republican there's a Republican
Unknown: he up is believed she says a whole lot but they have
the words have no meaning. And Joe Biden better watches
waterglass if you catch my drift will next
joining us from Hope Mills, North Carolina.
Adam Curry: She should have added don't don't take any small
airplanes. And probably stay away from hot tubs Joe. Right
off.
John C. Dvorak: So now there's a couple I'm trying to say which
put these order in. But I think I'll do this one first, which is
now I heard more than a couple of these and I think there's
good there's going to be I think there's something going on here
and I think that we have to be on the lookout. And you you'll
hear why I'm saying that after you listen to this guy. He comes
in as a Democrat. And I call it the odd coincidence clip.
Unknown: Gotta John Democrats, Carthage, Missouri. Good
evening, John.
My name is John and I'm voting for Joe and the vice president
here let he selected I think she'll be a good one. And I
think they'll will turn this country around and make America
great again. And that's all I gotta say.
I got my vote.
John C. Dvorak: This is good. That wasn't the only one of
those interesting. There was another Democrat that came on
with it. I didn't clip that one because they said Oh, that's
funny, right? I mean, the old one showed up.
Adam Curry: The old guy should have said I can't wait to build
back better
John C. Dvorak: We'll see but that's what he said. He said,
and we as soon as you hear Make America Great Again, what comes
to mind instantly?
Adam Curry: Joe Biden all the way No, of course, Trump Hello.
John C. Dvorak: It's very slick as good. Very slick.
Unknown: It's almost like we move, you know? Yeah, totally.
John C. Dvorak: Yes. If anyone remembers that. So let's play
the last one, which is another Democrat. And this one is my
favorite clip of all of them. Because of this one, just go
straight, straight to crazy. This is calling Star Trek.
Unknown: Richard, you're with us. Right now is when
Coronavirus took over President Trump and all his cronies in
that White House, knew about it and took their money out of the
stock market and nobody is doing anything about it. And now that
the stock market is back up, they put their money back in and
nobody has caught that yet. And the other thing is, we need to
move this world ahead. We've been here 50 million years. I
say, Well, I'm 56 tomorrow. And I don't understand why we're not
in the Star Wars. like Star Trek. We can make movies about
it. But we can't be there. Why are we not so far ahead? Why our
brains not moving forward? Why there's all this money going to
all these people that are whale pie. And none of it is being put
back into our society to move ahead. move us forward. Get out
of this debt, get out of the world. move us forward. We
should be a Star Trek era. And I don't understand why 50 million
people for 50 million years can't move us forward.
Richard, thanks for the
Adam Curry: ticket though.
That's obviously one of my cousin's also very angry about
the moon activity being 51 years ago and not repeating it. And
everyone getting all jacked about a trip to the
International Space Station.
John C. Dvorak: I liked the line. It was his line was I
forgot the line I like but it was something about we've been
here this long. And how can we haven't been to Star Trek? We
should be the Star Trek era.
Adam Curry: It's true. Where's my flying car? Yeah, well, there
you go. Oh, man, there is a new flying car.
John C. Dvorak: Oh, probably the same old flying car. So I'm I
get to give a little anecdote as a company as a guy in Sacramento
keeps doing these flying cars. He's been doing them since I was
I first read about him I think when I was in the 70s or, and so
it shows up. When I'm the editor of info worlds, some guy comes
running into my office and shows me the flying car because the
guy reintroduced it. And I said this guy has been doing this
flying car forever. And then then again another 10 years
later does a flank card this time is computerized and he goes
on.
Unknown: I mean, oh, that's that's the drone version of it.
No, it's a real flying
John C. Dvorak: car guy sits in the car and then he flies
around. It's got a bunch of propellers around the outside
it's well there
Adam Curry: was this new one and these guys had been at it for a
long time and they haven't done the whole investor you know? Put
your mind hide. I can't remember what the hell the name of that.
Ah, here it is. It's the
Unknown: Ah,
Adam Curry: shoot. This is really it's a three to three
wheel it's not to tear future crap I was
John C. Dvorak: it. It's as it actually is an air a small
airplane. Well, it's disguise flying car from Sacramento has
always been a hovercraft.
Adam Curry: Now this is an actual plane and the wings. They
fold out from the front to the back. And which kind of
alleviates that hole man. You know what happens when they if
they break or fold up, which is a lot of like the tariff fuchsia
has. But it must cost a lot today. But it must be a really
crappy brand name because I can't and I for the life of me
can't remember what it's called. Now. It hasn't flown yet. But
but they've done no. I mean, they know it'll fly. In fact,
its first flight maybe. Maybe soon. Maybe a YouTube video. I'm
sorry that I feel bad that I can't. I'm kind of like
stretching time and surprised that no trolls have already said
I know what you're talking about.
John C. Dvorak: Yeah, apparently no trolls terrible at this. But
you well, you're done. I'm
Adam Curry: the only one that knows about here it is. The
switchblade. Of course. You should look it up the
switchblade. It's carbon. It's like fiberglass. It's a two
seater, but can go, it'll do 180 knots, I think is super fast.
And it's and it's got a fan in the back, like a fan propeller.
And it does 120 on the road. And you've tank it with regular gas,
you know, just premium. And it was not regular. I'm sorry, not
aviation gas, which is, you know, that's 110 octane. And at
least, and you can park it in your garage and it and the cost
will be $120,000 which is
John C. Dvorak: Tesla. Yeah,
Adam Curry: that's incredible. Now I'm sure it's a kit though.
So what you do is you got to pay $20,000 You go to the kit place
they put an apron on your you hold on to the wrench and they
put it together.
John C. Dvorak: Yes, this is the scam is great.
Adam Curry: I love the kids care
John C. Dvorak: if I if I had to have a kid scan for cars to
Adam Curry: ah, I'd really love to have one of those. I'd fly
that.
John C. Dvorak: Let's get it get one. Let's not shave your
pennies.
Adam Curry: Well, by the time it's flying. I'm sure if I save
pennies, I will actually have enough money. Because that's
John C. Dvorak: the words. Yes. I agree. Yes. Yeah. Let's do a
couple of international updates. Okay, let's start with Lebanon.
Adam Curry: Ah, Lebanon. Okay. Here we go.
Unknown: Latest figures from Lebanon's health ministry show
that 171 people died in the disaster. 6500 were injured and
some 300,000 have been made homeless. Marios Sophos has more
as the Lebanese public demand answers about the events that
led up to last week's explosion, it's been revealed that a
prosecutor is to question several ministers and former
ministers about the disaster. This includes the most recent
public works minister who is currently acting in a caretaker
capacity, following the resignation of former Prime
Minister Hassan DAPP and his government on Monday. The
Lebanese judiciary does not have the power to sue if evidence of
negligence is found. However, in this case, the chief prosecutor
would transfer the file to parliament where it would be
managed by special counsel in charge of suing ministers and
presidents. An investigation by news agency AFP found that up
until the day before the blast in Beirut, officials had been
warning each other about the vast quantity of explosive
ammonium nitrate that had been left in storage at the capital's
port for years. On Wednesday, a tweet by the Lebanese presidency
gave an estimated cost for the damage caused last week.
preliminary estimates of the losses suffered following the
port explosion top $15 billion
John C. Dvorak: now I rang the bell because it's apparently
these guys have been no I mean, this this pile of ammonium
nitrate has been sitting there for years and they've been
bitching and moaning about to each other but But meanwhile,
some screwball report shows up in the New York Times and is
played out on the look for the clip NYT and is played on
Democracy Now. And I thought this was a very gratuitous and
odd statement. And I think, and I want to deconstruct it for a
second because I think it was done while the New Year sorry.
Wait, wait. I think it was done as a slam against Trump.
Although this she didn't she never says it. This happened
during the Obama administration.
Unknown: Meanwhile, the New York Times reports an American
contractor working with the US Army warned over four years ago
about the hazard posed by over 2700 tons of explosive ammonium
nitrate fertilizer left unattended at Beirut's port. The
US State Department reportedly then failed to pass along the
warning to us allies.
Now, what?
John C. Dvorak: What was the point of this little ditty? A
and B? Why were we supposed to we knew about this, and I'm sure
other people did, too. Why we're supposed to. Why was the state
department responsible for passing this on to allies? And
even so passing on to allies? What differences that make
Adam Curry: at this point? Nothing. Trump sucks Trump,
John C. Dvorak: again is for over four years ago. So it had
to be Obama's administration, but she makes it sound and I
think people listening to it. They think, oh, Trump, that guy.
Adam Curry: Well, maybe that's just us. Let me maybe that's
just our bias.
Unknown: Meanwhile, the New York Times reports an American
contractor working with the US Army warned over four years ago
about the hazard posed by over 2700 tons of explosive ammonium
nitrate fertilizer left unattended at Beirut's port. The
US State Department reportedly then failed to pass along the
warning to us allies.
Adam Curry: Yeah, my guess. I mean, if you look at the
timeline, yeah, that would probably be Trump was four years
ago.
John C. Dvorak: didn't pass. I've been in office for years.
Adam Curry: Well, I have a little different take on what's
going on. After some research. It is a theory by me Conspiracy.
You researcher. And it took me a while to think about this clip
Unknown: seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq and
then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and finishing off
Iran.
Adam Curry: I think we pretty much can add this one to the
list. I am going to implicate Israel. And I'll tell you why.
Very like the day of I received that and it was the day of,
which is why if you wanted to do a deep fake, yeah, you can, I
guess that clearly shows some kind of projectile projectile
going towards the spot that explodes in the right kind of
timing you'd expect. There's multiple angles. People have it
on video, and they draw little circles so you can see what
they're talking about. There's a negative image from a whole
different angle from the other side. Let it come from just
online, just people posting stuff.
John C. Dvorak: I know Amy, where the original images come
from that showed this the Miss? I don't
Adam Curry: know. It's people's phones. people's phones. It was
the it
John C. Dvorak: was before the initial explosion.
Adam Curry: No, no, no. It you see the you see the brownish
orange is is is there and then just before the big monstrous
pressure wave, which everyone says ammonium nitrate there's a
projectile the you can see is plenty of videos. The reason why
I'm going to implicate I have no proof. Seven months ago, right
near the Syrian border, Israel tested a what they called a new
weapon. And there's a video of it online. If you go look at it,
it is exactly the same pattern as this. Exactly the same
pattern with the with the with the shock wave and it's that
same round, whitish cloud, but that that's spurts out. I
haven't seen any of those. So
John C. Dvorak: okay, but hold on. No, I want to do I'm asking
for clarification you do let me do that. Are you saying that
you're because of the what you saw in this other video that
that entire explosion wasn't? I mean, ammonium nitrate obviously
is gonna go up. But it was the actual it wasn't just like
shooting a regular missile into something they think is making
armaments and having it blow up. It was actually the weapon
itself made a big explosion.
Adam Curry: That's, I'm saying that. Okay. Yes, I am saying
that because the weapon itself that is you can, if you look on
the YouTubes, you'll see it has the exact same pattern. And I
just never seen it before seven months ago. Now, the main reason
why I think this was Israel is on the same day. And you know,
what goes through the most important thing for this
country, Lebanon is food. And they get all of their grain
through the through the port. They import they got very poor
country, they have to import people have nothing to eat. And
just to make sure on the very same day, Israeli missiles blew
up grain silos in Syria, which is the only other place they
could get grain from that is nearby in order to feed their
people. That to me said something's died. Now why? I
don't know maybe the fact that Prime Minister Netanyahu has
threatened this multiple times. Who knows if there was ammonium
nitrate? I got a picture I got a State Department report that was
never I got a picture of some big bags. In guys. It looks like
a warehouse. Fine. We have the State Department never passed
anything on why was it really true? Was it not true? Miners
will blame it on Trump. Maybe there was no ammonium nitrate? I
don't know. But I can see the similarity exact similarity in
this missile and then to blow up the closest to grain silos on
the same day. Hmm.
John C. Dvorak: Well, that bomb went off right where the grain
silos the main ones are there where the where the ships come
in and drop it off. In fact, that main, if you look at the
explosion, you get that big building, there's a bunch of
grain silos and there was a bunch of grain on the ground if
you look at some of the videos. So they it's an interesting
idea, because even if there was ammonium nitrate, it would have
been vaporized and probably contributed to the size of the
blast.
Adam Curry: And would it it would have blown up just like
that, you know, it's like, show me some.
John C. Dvorak: From the beginning. I'm very doubtful
that you're going to get the ammonium nitrate make a killing
Adam Curry: blow up like that right
John C. Dvorak: yeah it even if it's heated up so I'm
Adam Curry: taking the great words of of our buddy West's
General Wesley Clark here with we needed Lebanon who knows who
knows what this cushion went other yeah
John C. Dvorak: another aspect of this as an Italian guy this
was all over Twitter and I didn't follow up on it I just
did some research to see if it because it didn't make a lot of
sense to me but that yellow cloud or that red cloudy dis
munitions expert claims is from a lithium ba anytime lithium
explodes you get a Red Cloud like I never heard that but it
but he says is for making missiles that are lithium
powered there's a there's a couple of different powering
mechanisms for for surface to surface missiles that are
lithium power they get there's a three there's some I never knew
this I had to go look it up there's there's two different
technologies that use lithium to make rocket motor and it's if
it's possible that the that the it wasn't the Hamas let's say
missile thing and they dropped his head blow this thing to
smithereens. I mean, there's no there's nothing left. I mean,
wouldn't it's not with outside the realm of possibilities, but
then to blow up the second granary that that was the big
one is kind of interesting because now he does now they're
either creating a humanitarian issue crisis, which of course
can be dealt with by sending shiploads of American grain over
there is an issue it's a problem, you're going to get
refugee issues and all these other problems are going to
occur and then date and starving people is like the lowest thing
you can do to a to a society
Adam Curry: and it appears that Trump has been pushing McCrone
to to step up. Yeah, you know, France has they they're pushing
money. They got all contexts so many things going on with
Lebanon,
John C. Dvorak: particularly their close allies. Yeah.
Historically.
Adam Curry: I'm trying to find this video on the fly for you
have to find it for you after the show when you
John C. Dvorak: find it. Yeah, it's a very distinctive look
Adam Curry: at this. That's why it's like wow, that look. Okay.
And the West Clark seven, I'm sure I'm sure. If not directly,
I'm sure. One of our intelligence agencies may be
involved, you know, swamped not drained yet.
John C. Dvorak: Yeah, somebody's that. Yeah, I would put this
into play as a consideration. Yeah. One more update Bella
rousse.
Adam Curry: Yes, the good old Bella Roos.
Unknown: Authorities in Bella Ruth have confirmed that a 25
year old protester has died following his arrest during a
rally on Sunday in the southeastern city of Gomel. The
cause of his death is though unclear. That news game as huge
crowds filled the streets of a string of cities including the
capital Minsk for a fourth consecutive day on Wednesday, as
anger simmers over the controversial reelection of
President Alexander Lukashenko. Claire rush reports.
Some holding hands, others holding flowers. Hundreds of
women marched through the capital of Bella roofs on
Wednesday, in a show of solidarity with injured and
detained protesters. The opposition says police have
attacked and arrested protesters with impunity. In this local
media report visibly roughed up young demonstrators are shown
publicly promising to stop taking to the streets. Now
neighboring countries are offering to help defuse tensions
Adam Curry: that this is I'm going to tell you what I think
this is to that Belarus not a member of the European Union. So
they have a now the European Union is saying, Oh, this was
clearly a bogus election. We cannot have this. This is no
good. We're going to we might have to put sanctions against
Belarus little Bella rousse. The European Union is so upset about
this election, because it was so unfair and undemocratic. And
it's all crazy. We've got to sanction them. Is that really
because they just want democracy to be better? Or is it because
this guy is sick and tired of the Russian and they're in their
games? And he's and he's, he's messing with the pipelines. So
the Russians no doubt are in there with their goon squads
tearing everybody up. European Union wants their their pipeline
connection back. Hello, I want my pipeline back, especially now
that US are sanctioning the Nord Stream two So any country that
participates in that pipeline is also going to get in trouble.
This is a pipeline war. It has nothing to do with democracy in
Belarus.
John C. Dvorak: I'm not gonna argue about that.
Adam Curry: It's all under pipelines in the show notes if
you're interested. It's just nuts. Hey, noodle gun.
John C. Dvorak: We need a new gun update. Oh, yes, please.
Adam Curry: Let's, let's do a little quick noodle gun. Here we
go, ladies and gentlemen. Hey, I still don't know what that has
to do with. I like it. The noodle gun is out. That's right.
What's getting canceled? I think Robyn D'Angelo is on her way to
some cancellation. As now everyone is realizing that the
University of Connecticut is paying her $22,000 for a three
hour lecture. And this is a people people are freaking out
over this. Wait a minute. She's just a capitalist noodle gun for
you. Robyn D'Angelo, but we'll see because she can always do
corporate work. We have the McDonald's CEO. Well, that's not
really that's not really a noodle gun. He lied about how
many women he was sleeping with and he took a big pay off. And
then the rest came out. Oops. Yeah, we have Seattle station
fires Jewish meteorologists who compared Black Lives Matter
rioters to Nazis You foolish man. You can only do that if you
work for MSNBC. Choose can't do that. He's PRX at you know the
Who else have produced for the for National Public Radio?
John C. Dvorak: Yeah. Public Radio. Yeah, yeah. Radio
something.
Adam Curry: So I think she's the sister of three of them carry
Hoffman. And she has been called out by multiple employees about
touching a woman of colors hair. That was apparently the Oh no.
Yes, she has black hair. She apparently black. I'm sorry. I
can't say that. Kamala doesn't have black hair. I would say she
has a das related hair. Can't even talk anymore. And so
apparently she reached out and said, Oh, man, I really like
your hair. Well, haha, wrong. That is so racist. That's what
it's come to. Now. There were other things of course that pop
up. This is not the only time but that's what it is. It's
like, if I
John C. Dvorak: hate Well, Joe Biden gets away with smelling
people's hair and saying
Adam Curry: horrible things. But okay, all right. So but she is
refusing to go so even though she gets the noodle gun, it
looks like she's got some kind of vest on that is bouncing
lassi but people are leaving people or people are resigning.
I would say the was this. The Morse guy. What's his name?
John C. Dvorak: was no the Morse Yeah,
Adam Curry: Alex Morse. He's running for. He's running for?
Where's he running for him in Massachusetts? I think. And
well, the bottom line is people start calling him out. Because
when he was a teacher, he was having sex with students and
therefore, you know, shouldn't qualify. Yeah, that guy
John C. Dvorak: and having sex with his own students and over
age.
Adam Curry: Yeah, sure. But that's the point. He's not he's
not getting canceled. People who are calling him out or getting
canceled.
John C. Dvorak: Why are they getting canceled?
Adam Curry: Because it's it's LGBT unfriendly. Yeah, you
should see Glenn Greenwald is canceling people left and right.
He is over over this particular issue. Of course, Glenn's a gay
superhero he's coming to the rescue and he's right obviously.
Channel 10 Where's channel 10? Bro, I can't even think about
where channel 10 is. I guess the number one noodle gun for me is
the Netherlands Facebook and Instagram. Now both for bid for
bid for bid any pictures of Black Pete So the actual
celebration for children in December which used to be before
Christmas Christmas is much more commercialized now.
John C. Dvorak: What if you call them shut Pete
Adam Curry: No no pictures if if someone is a Black Pete and not
actually has and doesn't have Have that skin color, it is
illegal by Facebook rules to post that that has got to be the
harshest new organ of them all
John C. Dvorak: to get so sick you can't win
Adam Curry: here is that just want to stay with Black Lives
Matter since we're here a couple things to catch up on. This was
played quite a lot. I don't know if this young woman represents
Black Lives Matter. If not, it's she's listed as a Chicago, Black
Lives Matter. Organizer. I'm not so sure of that. I also don't
think a lot of people agree with her message, but it was played
quite a bit here.
John C. Dvorak: I don't care. And somebody decides to loot a
Gucci or a Macy's or a Nike because that makes sure that
that person eats that makes sure that that person has clothes
that makes sure that that person can make some kind of money
because the city obviously doesn't care about them. Not
only that that's reparations
Unknown: in front of the first police district members of Black
Lives Matter justifying the actions of looters last night.
Adam Curry: Today, sorry. So that was, you know, it's
reparations, obviously, okay, yeah, this
John C. Dvorak: has come up a couple of times. The Black Lives
Matter representatives, calling it reparations for looting.
Adam Curry: Yeah. Yeah. That's not really the right way to go
about it. Of course, you'll never get reparations. Yeah,
yeah, I don't think that's happening. tangibles will be
nice reparations, probably not. Also from Chicago. This is
Democrat. LaShawn Ford.
Unknown: So today I'm calling for the abolishment of history
classes in Illinois. Concerned that current school history
teaching Lee to white privilege, and a racist society.
John C. Dvorak: There you go. Yeah, I love that one, by the
way. Yeah, I
Adam Curry: hadn't I didn't have a clip of it. This is the first
time I got the clip. I'm very happy and it's
John C. Dvorak: been going on for in some areas this year, the
history classes as a great idea. I'd like
Adam Curry: to say hi to the Portland Police Department
officers who are listening to the show who clearly clearly
took a page from from our recommendation if you're dealing
with someone who is clearly under informed and over
socialized the best way to reply to anything they say is I'm
surprised you would use your political privilege to accuse me
of not doing the work and that you can fill in taking the
garbage out doesn't matter. It's a tard taser. People get frozen.
They don't know what to say. They will and they'll defend
their privilege, which is the funniest part. Here's a Portland
cop. He's arresting a female, peaceful protester. And an
onlooker has a question that listen to his answer.
Unknown: Your female officer presents
John C. Dvorak: fair female officer present while you're
patting her down a female officer while you're tearing her
down. Could you hear that? Yeah. Not quite with this much
elegance as your script. But, but he's there.
Adam Curry: But he's learning. He's learning. I thought it was
good. This is the last one I've got here. This is now that
Minneapolis St. Paul of courses? I don't know what's left of it.
If we don't see any real overview of how bad this was,
our producers say kind of in a four by four block radius, but I
don't think so it seems like it should be much more. So there's
an ad now for the TCF Twin Cities financial bank. And one
of our producers sent this and I thought it was indeed also kind
of tailored towards the new Liberal Democrats.
Unknown: Do you feel that something's changing? A shift
from a focus on? Because while it's perfectly fair to ask
what's in it for me, finding the answer comes from asking what's
in it for we at TCF Bank? Our purpose lies in answering that
question and giving every me the financial strength to make us
all stronger.
Adam Curry: What do you think? Sounds kind of like communism.
They take your money and they give it to other people. I don't
know.
John C. Dvorak: Yeah, well, there's that Isn't that right?
Adam Curry: And then we got this cool screenshot from one of our
producers. And he said this was a book that Martin Luther King
often often touted. And of course, now I'm looking for the
name of this book, which for some reason didn't carry over to
my show notes, but I did want to read this from 1965. Now read
this little paragraph, such groups as the Panthers never
more than 5000 and probably not half that number, or the Rams
Revolutionary Armed movement, which I think you've talked
about jump.
John C. Dvorak: No, no, I did a retitle it revolutionary
abolitionist movement. Oh, okay.
Adam Curry: Well, it's, I would say it's probably the same
outfit, the ram just changed a bit, which wasn't even which was
even smaller would never have gained the attention and
influence they did, had it not been for the susceptibility of
white upper class northerners. Unlike their southern cousins,
cousins, northern whites had little experience and no
tradition of dealing with guilt. And their experiments bordered
on the bizarre and descended to the pathological. Many begged to
be abused and baited. Sound familiar?
John C. Dvorak: By Yeah, that's a good one. Oh, holy
Adam Curry: crap. I'll have to look that up. where that's from?
John C. Dvorak: Well, I do have one thing to get to before the
break. Now there is a q anon woman who has just won the
primaries in Georgia to be the Republican to become a US
representative. Yes. Make Marjorie Taylor Greene, I want
to just give us a little background on her because it's
kind of interesting. This is being played. I have three clubs
this short, but this was clip one, which is the longest
Unknown: Georgia Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene as a
pariah inside her own party over her past racist and bigoted
statements. But this week, it's another kind of extremism
drawing attention to her run for Congress. All right,
so Q is a patriot. We know that for sure.
But we do not know who Q is
that was green in a video a couple of years ago, one of
several social media posts where she mentions Q or Q anon. It's a
conspiracy theory that emerged on right wing message boards in
2017. It spread quickly through Facebook group, I'm sorry,
Adam Curry: this is here's my problem. I just want to stop. Q
anon is not a conspiracy theory. Get it? I mean, that's bullshit.
It's not a goal
John C. Dvorak: today was let's start off with if you want to
talk bullshit, this is NPR. So let's start with that premise.
And the whole beginning of the thing where she's she has his
racist comments. There's no examples of any of this.
Adam Curry: But also, Q anon is a person or group or people who
are posting things it gets worse, but it's not a conspiracy
John C. Dvorak: theory. Believe me, I got better stuff coming
up. Do you think that's bad?
Adam Curry: I guess I should wait until the end of each clip
then because
Unknown: this is good that for sure. But we do not know.
Q Is that was green in a video a couple of years ago, one of
several social media posts where she mentions Q or Q anon. It's a
conspiracy theory that emerged on right wing message boards in
2017. has spread quickly through Facebook groups and homemade
documentaries like this one on YouTube.
What do we have for now? Donald Trump as president of the US.
And then, out of nowhere, I wrote the enigma of Q.
Those who buy into the baseless theory thing, President Trump is
leading a secret work and Satan worshipping pedophiles in the
deep state. They believe someone known only as Q is helping by
leaving encrypted messages for self proclaimed digital soldiers
to decode was a peaceful movement. Weapon is true. That's
a cue supporter. In an episode of the podcast Q anon anonymous,
the show takes a deep skeptical look into the world of q&a. q&a
listeners. One of the hosts Travis view says Q anon is so
outlandish, so ridiculous that most people didn't take it
seriously. Not federal authorities not social media
platforms. At least not until q believers started running for
office
Adam Curry: unkind of I'm surprised you would use your
privilege to not even request that we put on our cue glasses
for the segment.
John C. Dvorak: That's a funny idea but I don't think this is a
cue glasses necessary segment. Okay. All right. It's just
mostly just the silliness of NPR. So let's play the second
one. There's two other ones one's from democracy now which I
just wanted to play as a as a quick summary because it has
some funny stuff in it but that you have to play the other one
first, which is the just the q&a on one without Democracy Now,
that moniker on there. And and because I want you to listen
carefully.
Unknown: I think Marjorie Taylor Greene started in the bucket
where she truly believed in Cuba, Iran, but now she's
probably drifting more towards the political constituency.
Marc Andre argentino recently wrote about Q anon for the
Combating Terrorism Center at West Point. He worries Q is
fueling extremism. Last year an FBI memo called it a potential
domestic terrorism threat. Several Q supporters already
have been linked to serious crimes. If a Gallagher tracks Q
anon for the London based Institute for Strategic
Dialogue,
that's almost like a cult, you know, it really becomes this
almost cult like thinking they have their mantras and their
oaths and they, you know, are so dogmatic and they're thinking
Gallagher says a conspiracy now goes well beyond American
politics, international Q groups have formed.
John C. Dvorak: So the guy says they have their mantras and
their oaths. I don't know about oaths. Well, that's a high
Pledge Allegiance. I mean, we kind of alter the way I'm gonna
Adam Curry: tell you, there's one oath where we go one we go
all that's their oath. It's the mantra
John C. Dvorak: so they have why he said, what's not one? He said
mantras and oath. So he works at NPR. Well, no, that was a guy
that was a researcher, that was always
Adam Curry: a digger. Whoever that guy is, he's wrong.
John C. Dvorak: The wrap up by Amy
Unknown: and election news, a supporter of a far right
conspiracy theory with a history of racist remarks as one that
Republican nomination for Georgia's 14th congressional
district. Mercury Taylor greens primary victory Tuesday in a
deep red district makes her the heavy favorite in November's
election. Green ran on a pro gun anti immigrant anti abortion
platform and has embraced the Q anon conspiracy theory which
claims among other things, that President Trump is secretly at
war with the deep state cabal of Satan worshipping elites who run
a child sex trafficking operation.
Adam Curry: Wow, she got the same damn script from the
Democrats. That's that's obviously set up. Well, do you
have something to add to this? Because I do.
John C. Dvorak: No, I'm just done. I just thought they'd be
good clips. I liked this. The sex pedophile thing going off
the deep end and well.
Adam Curry: That's exactly what it is. And that's exactly what
it's about. And two days ago, the Hollywood, California
Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, offices of CNN were
stormed by at least 100. I don't know how many got in. They were
in they were in the office building. And they had signs and
this was one of their mantras.
Okay, here we go. One we go. Oh, there we go. One we go. Oh,
well, we can.
John C. Dvorak: Okay. It's a mantra more and more than an
Adam Curry: oath. Well, and how about this one? This is 100 Kids
in the in the halls at CNN, with with signs. pizza gate. What are
they saying? Save the Children. Okay. It's just a couple of guys
who look like they actually might enjoy some younger
children were in the crowd that was kind of creepy. We like just
creepy dudes. But yes. This is not just something that Q anon
is about but the kids you know, the wayfare cabinet. Kids are at
home. They're not at school. They're on face bag, Instagram,
Twitter. They have board in the house board on board in the
house. They got nothing to do. And then except pics, explore.
And they're exploring online and they're seeing lots of stuff.
That is creepy off weird. And this week as well, YouTube
videos about 20 minutes, I have the full length linked in the
show notes. This is producer John Paul rice. He's a Hollywood
guy. He's produced several independent movies, but also
Juno. And the Hunger Games that sent the first Hunger Games. He
recently did a child's voice which is very, very creepy
about, about children about network selling children. And
here's a minute and a half of this video that he made. This is
a guy who has who is successful in Hollywood. He's not he's not
Harvey Weinstein level of success back in the day. You
know, he's not it. He's not to Tom Cruise running, gets work.
He gets good work.
Unknown: This is a bigger problem because most people know
in that world and the world that I come from an Hollywood, that
is a hidden layer that everybody knows is there. When the metoo
movement started in 2017, I reached out to several of my
female actress friends who were prominent in LA, you would know
them by name, many of them you would know by just their look,
because you go, Oh, that was her in that movie or that movie. And
I said, Well, what about the children? What about the
children? And they and the response was, we know we know.
But they were silent on it. And it destroyed me because it
destroyed my illusion of what rights human rights were.
Children's Rights were. This is a child abuse system that we
have been living in for a very long time, and it's been allowed
to go on. And I will not be silent about this, because it
affects every single one of us. The people on television, who
smile at you who tell you stories, who give you news are
the ones who hide all of this from us. They are not talking
about the real issues, they are distracting you with division
issues. This is a unification issue. When the Maxwell files
came out. 48 hours ago, I went on MSNBC, I went on cnn.com. And
I looked at every single one of their headlines, and there was
no mention of it whatsoever. They were talking about John
Lewis's funeral, they were talking about Obama versus
Trump, all of the bullshit that you and I hear every single day.
And it doesn't matter what side of the political equation you're
on on this, this is a child issue. This is a human issue.
This is not a political issue. It has nothing to do with left
versus right. Democrat versus Republican, liberal versus
conservative or anything you are or you identify with, as in
between. We are faced with a crisis of consciousness among
the leadership of our banking institutions, of our media
corporations, of the Hollywood entertainment industry of the
music industry.
Adam Curry: And it goes on for 20 minutes.
John C. Dvorak: It's very interesting for him getting
work.
Adam Curry: That's why you know, a guy like that only does it if
he's really fed up with it. He's
John C. Dvorak: got to be brave cabbie family have some money in
the bank.
Adam Curry: He's got to have money in the bank. And you know,
the usual list applies. No hot tubs, no small planes. Don't
walk in the streets of DC to in the morning. This is all very
dangerous. So what when people discredit the Cuba non
phenomenon? Which, okay, fine. I don't I'm not following this.
But I have been following this crap for 10 years, if not
longer. And yeah, of course that's happening. Of course.
It's right. And now all these people like Judy and Amy are
going to be as far as I'm concerned, helping cover it up.
Well, boom, where is that to? Where it is the the
representative who? Who won the primaries she wants to in
Georgia,
John C. Dvorak: Georgia. Okay, we're all dying of COVID Now
apparently,
Adam Curry: we'll keep our eye on her. I'm gonna show my mood
by donating to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could
do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun.
John C. Dvorak: We do have a few people to thank for show to
elves 68 Starting with Brian nonnamous 177 76 He needs to
have a house buying Carmo give you that the end. And also glad
to thank you for the anniversary call out. John Carney in
Alpharetta, Georgia went 3333 I need some jobs karma. We'll put
that at the end. And let's get it done. We have I'm sure it was
John Carney that we have sir Nathan Lee Miller Foster. Sir
Nathan Lee Miller fashion Norwood Massachusetts.

like a potty indeed. See, I do have got a couple reports here
first, let's start with what's coming up today. The no masks
outside okie town meet up. That's at 630 at garage in the
garage and more Oklahoma. Bridgeport Pennsylvania oh
that's a no agenda slash mo facts meet up seven o'clock
tonight at paddlers. Then we have the by state amygdala
commission meet up in Davenport, Iowa. That's the armored
gardens, with Todd McGreevy organizing. Tomorrow, the
greater seattle Kirkland Marina meet up the Wild Rover Irish
Pub. Also tomorrow the Virtual MeetUp over Jitsi at 4pm Eastern
comics should blogger organizing I presume you can go to no
agenda social.com for that. On Saturday Bloomington, Indiana at
the switchyard brewery. Throop is organizing also on Saturday
in Sioux City, Iowa. Riverside Park, sir Bernie Atma and Matt
Decker are hosting that for you. And on Sunday, the Oxford North
Carolina meet at five o'clock tobacco wood brewery, Derek Parr
is organizing that for you. And we have a couple of reports.
This is the first one is the report from West Seattle Buren
school from home. This was kind of good. Steven M. Hill a
douchebag from West Seattle says our meetup was small. It was
exceptionally productive. Hannah, the keeper and I were
joined by fellow no agenda producers Jeremy and Jen. That's
very small to discuss the myriad of issues confronting our
families. As we approach the new school year a conversation
touched on all the expected points masked social distancing
outsize concerns from other family members SJW
indoctrination by the public school system etc. But where
things really got down to brass tacks was the way in which
requiring our children to learn and socialize through the
established remote systems is truly a method of social
control, and an attempt to dehumanize the members of their
young cohort and train them to be digital corporate slaves.
This will not stand so they had a ha moment and they have set up
a group. Email group, W S E A dot school from home@gmail.com.
Again, W S E A dot school from home@gmail.com. I encourage any
parent of any age group in any locality is interested in
discussing the future of our collective human resources to
drop us line and brainstorm. outstanding idea. And we have an
audio report from AVR. Oops from an old favorite Sergeant Fred.
Do you remember Sergeant Fred?
John C. Dvorak: Not for a while? No, no,
Adam Curry: we haven't heard from him for quite a while.
Sergeant Fred early supporter, Vietnam veteran and still in and
out of VA hospitals for Agent Orange damage that was done to
him and he apparently was at at a at an impromptu meetup. Here
Unknown: we are. Today is the ninth of August. And we are in a
meetup. It's a no agenda meetup. And we're here for you orange,
in the city of orange in Orange County. This is a sergeant Fred
meetup. It's spontaneous, and it's extemporaneous. And here
with us, we have these people have a podcast map
from the brunch with the breath podcast in the morning everybody
and just so y'all know blind lives matter.
BLM lives matter. Why does that matter?
Well, I'm blind and you know my life matters just like everybody
else's life but I mean, Black Lives Matter.
And of course this Sergeant Fred from originally from Austin
marooned here in LA because can't go anywhere anyplace
because of the lockdown. But anyway, I podcasts are two with
three podcasts. One's called podcast reporter the one the the
struggling biz until Jhansi. Dvorak that is biz, and the
other one is the 2030 podcast.com. So, we want to
wish everybody hear from no agenda to say 123 in
Adam Curry: the morning, thank you very much sir and Fred, go
to the no agenda. meetups.com go hang out with the all day you
won't be triggered all you want to be is like,
just like a potty. Just like one no agenda. meetups.com great
fun. Thank you all. Do you have anything left? I mean, I
John C. Dvorak: see like one clip that I want to play because
it does need comment. Okay, so I'm not gonna play us out.
Adam Curry: All right. Let me just see if I want to play
something before that. Yes, I do have one important clip that I
feel is important to play. Since the Biden camp campaign is in
the news. And this is the what was the the something from the
Koran that Joe Biden repeated. Use your hands
John C. Dvorak: use your time from the Hadith from
Adam Curry: the Hadith. That what do you know about that? I
don't know anything about it.
John C. Dvorak: I saw it. We did play the game when analyzing it
on the show.
Adam Curry: Yeah, but what I didn't hear was the analysis
brought by Ayaan Hirsi Ali. She was on Tucker Carlson. I like
Ayaan Hirsi Ali. I know her. She, she emigrated to the
Netherlands first from Somali famous, very famous, she's one
of the most influential women in the world. I think Time Magazine
usually lists her. And I know we're through the the LA
lesbians if you remember those guys.
John C. Dvorak: Yeah, it'd be interesting. What does she have
to say it was the
Adam Curry: LA Jewish lesbians that might ring a bell? Well,
she was surprised, shocked, odd and somewhat outraged by what
Joe said, and the fact that no one caught it.
Unknown: The next thing that he says in the clip, which is if
you see something wrong, and he quotes the Prophet Muhammad,
then use your hand. And if you can't use your hand, use your
tongue. And if you can't use your tongue, then use your
heart. What he's basically doing from that point onwards is
enforcing Sharia law. And it is vigilantism on steroids. It's
like, you know, we've seen if you're a Muslim, you grew up
within Islam, you're trying to reform it, you're just a good
American Muslim. You have been confronted with former vice
president and I would say a candidate for a major political
party who's basically saying lesson for us Sharia law, but I
don't know who puts these words in his mouth. And I'm alarmed.
And I absolutely cannot believe that in the year 2020. Joe Biden
is commanding price and forbidding wrong, meaning he is
enforcing Sharia law. I understand that Joe Biden
doesn't know what he's doing. Because and I think most
Americans don't. But he does have a campaign team. He has a
team of people who will say, this is what you can say Joe
Biden should come out and apologize and apologize
profusely to the American people and especially to those American
Muslims who have adopted an embrace the foundational
principles of America.
Adam Curry: Basically, someone slipped it in Yes,
John C. Dvorak: I and he said it in that speech that he wants to
bring more Muslims on board and he probably did the same thing
that Obama did ended up with a bunch of Muslim Brotherhood
types Russia, you know, radicals in the administration that you
because Biden would was in that administration. He probably
moved a few of them over. And you know, He's clueless this
guy's he is the danger to the country. She is going to
Adam Curry: try this another 40 seconds will translate it
directly into what that what that piece means.
Unknown: And in this video, what he has done is he's put himself
at least These people who I think of as a Muslim Brotherhood
radical Islamist, they have him endorsing and enforcing Sharia
vigilantism. I mean, think about it. You have people who as
Muslims call us when they when they start talking about
enforcing Sharia law it is should we use when you talk
about the hand? Is it the sword? Is it firearms? Is it
improvised? Explosive Devices, think about the two brothers
went and use their mother's pressure cooker to hurt people
during the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013. That's the
kind of thing and if you don't know what you're talking about,
then you shouldn't do
it. There you go. That to
John C. Dvorak: me is a big deal. There's a lot of there's a
few others I thought I clipped one of them and I'm thinking
about it probably didn't there's a number of and analysts that
are bringing this up. Good Biden, of course doesn't know
what the hell's going on. So what do you what?
Adam Curry: What Sherea realized that was like the headgear.
Look, here's the deal. Come on. Man, Sharia law.
John C. Dvorak: Look. So I have my last clip as this this is an
NPR again, getting great material from Yeah, I can tell
now. This is God. This is a just these a little comment at the
end because this is the stupidest report I have ever
heard on NPR. And you'll realize when you hear the report why I
think this Okay, so let's h1 B analysis.
Unknown: This is the indicator from Planet money. On June 22,
President Trump issued an executive order to restrict
certain types of immigrants and temporary foreign workers from
coming to the US. Now this order applied to future immigrants,
not to people who are already here or those who had already
been approved to move here.
And the rationale given by the president was that with so many
Americans out of work right now, he did not want more people from
other countries competing with Americans for the available
jobs. And the executive order was consistent with the
President's broader agenda of limiting immigration to the US.
Maggie Peters is an associate professor of political science
at UCLA. And she says there was one thing about the executive
order that she found really surprising, unlike the Trump
administration's earlier changes to immigration, which are
largely focused on restricting so called low skilled
immigration, this new executive order also targeted visas for
highly skilled workers.
And specifically, as Maggie explains the order suspended new
h1 B visas, those are the pieces that often go to foreign workers
in the US tech sector. The government had previously begun
scrutinizing h1 B applications more than it had before. And
that had made it more complicated to apply for them.
But this order temporarily suspends granting h1 B's
altogether, with just a few exceptions.
But when you think about the h1 B workers who are coming into
the tech sector, that's not exactly the population that we
think about who've lost their jobs right now. But if we think
about any group, the tech sector has pretty quickly moved to
being able to work remotely. Ah,
John C. Dvorak: so she believes this woman from this woman from
UCLA, there it is. She believes that if you work from home, and
you're a tech worker, you don't you're not threatened by h1 B,
because you work from home to tech sectors adopted to working
from home. Thus if you work from home, your job secure. What is
it? What is she talking about?
Adam Curry: Well, this actually gave me something else to think
about. If if half of these tech companies have you working from
home, go work from your home in India. Pakistan, you can dial in
it's the same thing as problem solves,
John C. Dvorak: well, that's borderline outsourcing. But the
point is, is that she says h1 B detect community has resolved
this issue of you being replaced you're making $100,000 a year
and being replaced by a $60,000. Hindi on h1 B because you're
working from home. What is what how does this report even air?
It's stupid,
Adam Curry: you know, ever since they got rid of lemasters at NPR
that's an R er l mon Eileen columbines disc jockey name.
It's gone downhill. And you know, they have the billion
dollar endowment. That's what that's what Lee got him to then
you know, they just coasting. And they've probably these these
worse than these kids are probably working for free.
They're interning half of them come through PRX you know, it's
hard to make money in that business and But they all have
the same voice, which is exactly what you want.
John C. Dvorak: They do have a similar voice, all those.
There's some very weird voices that have been cropping up.
Adam Curry: I look forward to more of your NPR reports. They
are they are fun. They're definitely fun. All right. Yes.
Well, would that we're closing the ship down, man. It's time
we're well over three hours. We did have a long first donation
segment. So that is appreciated. We have Nick the rat coming up
on the no agenda stream. If you're listening live and have

Unknown: Senator Harris says she's proud of her record as a
prosecutor and that she'll be a prosecutor president but I'm
deeply concerned about this record that
this is simply not true.
She put over 1500 people in jail for marijuana violations and
then laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked
marijuana. I am proud of the work that he did.
Have you ever smoked? And I inhale I did I get it?
She blocked evidence. She blocked evidence that would have
freed an innocent man from death row until the courts forced her
to do so.
John C. Dvorak: This is simply not true.
Unknown: She kept people in prison beyond their senses to
use them as cheap labor for the state of California.
John C. Dvorak: I am proud of the work we did. Have you ever
smoked? And I inhale I get it I get
Unknown: it I'm Joe Biden by people have been killed since
