John C Dvorak: Era Zionist,
Unknown: shill,
Adam curry, John C Dvorak, Sunday,
Adam Curry: October 20, 2024 this your award winning Kimber
nation. Media assassination. Episode 1705,
Unknown: this is no
agenda. Dialing 8675309,
Adam Curry: and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas
hill country here in FEMA Region, number six in the
morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry
John C Dvorak: and from Northern Silicon Valley, where we realize
now that Lizzo can fly commercial. I'm John C Dvorak
Unknown: buzzkill in the morning,
Adam Curry: she can fly commercial. Yeah, she's lost a
lot of weight. You know, it's funny you say that because, of
course, we, I think you have the clip we all saw her shilling for
Kamala in Detroit, and, and, and I'm like, laughing at what she's
saying. And Tina's saying, Is she thin? Is she thin? Is she on
the O? I guess that that word has been out there, that she's,
she's on the O,
John C Dvorak: the big O on the O. Is that what they're saying?
Yeah, on the O. She's, I mean, I mean, the term is on the O,
Adam Curry: I think we made that up
John C Dvorak: pretty good. Yeah, you
Adam Curry: got the O face. You're on the O, you got the O,
but yeah, you're on the O. She's on the issue. We play this clip
because it's not we referred to it. This
John C Dvorak: is, yes, this Lizzo and the one of the rallies
that she was invited to to shield for Kamala. So she didn't
get people to the rally to watch her perform. It's a good bit
that she's doing there. And she says this, I'm so proud
Unknown: to be from this city. You know, they say if Kamala
wins, then the whole country will be like Detroit, proud,
like Detroit resilient, like Detroit, yeah,
Adam Curry: no, you can't take it back. You know, you can't
jump in with like, Oops. I misread the prompter. I mean,
proud, like Detroit, yeah, that's great.
John C Dvorak: I noticed that you could just see that she was
thinking to herself, oh, that's not Oh no. What am I gonna do
here? I'm gonna save this. And
Adam Curry: the sad thing is, you know, Detroit. I mean, I've
been to Detroit, I've been to the moda city. It has been
through some tough times, you know. So no disrespect to
Detroit, but that's not exactly what you want in your
presidential campaign. Detroit
John C Dvorak: has become a shadow of itself its former self
ever
Adam Curry: since Natalie and Clayton, you know, started
selling homes there, hey, oh, hey, oh, sorry, don't Google
that, you know. So this is, this is a pretty old trick to bring
in. You know, music superstars have them perform, and Kamala
has really taken it to the max. In this case, what I find
interesting is, well, actually, I think it's very risky. Do you
know all of the star power she's been bringing out?
John C Dvorak: Well, there's been a lot of it, but one of the
riskiest one, I think, is Usher Yes,
Unknown: pop superstar Lizzo today in her hometown of
Detroit, revving up the crowd.
I'm proud to say that I voted, I voted early and I voted for
Kamala Harris, the
Grammy winner, lending her celebrity to Vice President
Kamala Harris. As early voting began today in Detroit,
we're going to go vote today. We're going to remind people to
vote. We're going to register folks to vote.
Rally goers headed straight from the event to the polls early and
get it done. Harris going after former President Donald Trump's
fitness for office. He's
becoming increasingly unstable and unhinged
two battleground states today, heading from Michigan to Georgia
for a rally in Atlanta alongside another celebrity, R and B and
pop star Usher, the Harris campaign leaning into star power
to shine a light on the vice president. You
Adam Curry: know, Usher deleted all of his tweets once the Diddy
stuff came out.
John C Dvorak: Yes, he's got his tit in a ring or
Adam Curry: whatever. Yeah, that, that's that. I think
that's rather, really dangerous. I
John C Dvorak: just before we think that camel is aware of any
of the nitty stuff. Just
Adam Curry: before we started the show, all the timelines were
filled with Trump scooping fries at McDonald's. So we can say
that he worked at McDonald's longer than vice president
Harris. I think that's pretty funny. That's pretty funny. The
now for people who went to church this morning in America,
I'm sure that this came up in the conversation, and I have the
two clips, one which now that I'm listening to both sounds.
Sweetened with crowd noise versus the recording in the
crowd. So this is after vice president Harris is talking
about Trump hand selecting, hand picking, three Supreme Court
judges. Have we all forgotten that they have to go through
confirmation and that Senate actually approves them? Yeah,
John C Dvorak: no, he hands picks him. He's just as you
Yeah,
Adam Curry: the same way. He killed the bill. He killed the
border bill. He just killed it. He
John C Dvorak: killed even in Congress. But he managed to kill
the bill. He
Adam Curry: just called everybody and said, kill it. I'm
in charge. I'm Trump man. So she was just finished talking about
the right to to have an abortion, and
Unknown: they did as he intended. Oh, you guys are at
the wrong rally.
Adam Curry: So what apparently was shouted was, Christ is King,
Jesus is Lord. Here is the audience version. Audience,
Unknown: so
Adam Curry: I don't know, I don't know if she actually heard
what was said or not, but this is, this is, of course, being
used now to get the Christians out to vote.
John C Dvorak: Good luck.
Adam Curry: Oh no. They're really trying. They're really
trying. They
John C Dvorak: can try, yeah,
Adam Curry: but the Hill had, the had kind of a semi, like a
October surprise. Let so it's kind of like a giblet. It's not
really a surprise. But I thought this was pretty interesting.
Oopsie. It
Unknown: appears that Vice President Kamala Harris
plagiarized
John C Dvorak: Oopsie. Did he say Oopsie? Well, he's from the
start using that
Adam Curry: oopsie instead of Hello, let's use oops
Unknown: Oopsie. It appears that Vice President Kamala Harris
plagiarized parts of her 2009 criminal justice book. That's
according to new reporting from city journals Christopher Rufo.
Rufo reports that quote, Kamala Harris plagiarized at least a
dozen sections of her criminal justice book was titled smart on
crime. According to a new investigation, the current vice
president even lifted material from Wikipedia. Now Rufo team
found that multiple violations were comparable in severity to
the plagiarism found in former harbor President Claudine Gay's
doctoral thesis. CNN also reviewed several of the passages
highlighted by Rufo found that Harris and her co author failed
to properly attribute language to sources. As an example, Rufo
points out that in one section of the book, Harris without
proper attribution quote reproduced extensive sections
from a John Jay College of Criminal Justice press release.
She and her co author passed off the language as their own,
copying multiple paragraphs virtually verbatim as another
example in a section about a New York Court program. HARRIS quote
stole long passages directly from Wikipedia, which is long
considered an unreliable source by some. She not only assumes
that online encyclopedia is accuracy, but copies its
language nearly verbatim without citing the source that's from
Rufo. Oh
Adam Curry: no, a political book is full of crap. Oh no, Say it
ain't so well.
John C Dvorak: Rufo is a kind of a character because he goes
after plagiarism. Oh, he's only got, he does, that's his thing.
He's, yeah, it's his thing. And he got that Harvard woman blown
out of the water because of her plagiarism. But I have to
question the, the the validity of the any of this from a
writer's perspective. Now, I don't do this, because if I was
going to quote Wikipedia, I say, Wikipedia says, and then I have
the I'd have the thing you would have
Adam Curry: said, sources tell me, I'd never do that.
John C Dvorak: But the it's legitimate to take the press
releases are put out there for you to steal from. That's what
they're there for. Oh, sure, sure. But you sent the press
release your sport. Ideally, when you send a press release to
a writer, ideally, they'll just use it verbatim, yeah, that's
what you want. In fact, the
Adam Curry: press releases usually include, you know,
questions for you to ask. I've got, I see those all the time.
Sometimes
John C Dvorak: they will but generally speaking, a press
release would be a complete article written including
quotes, yeah, from people, from various people, yes, yes. And so
you can just use it. And so she and Wikipedia's public domain
for all practical purposes, and you can pretty much steal from
it, if you want to. So I don't think any of this is plagiarism,
to be honest about it, because when you take from a copyrighted
work, not not a public domain, where from a copyrighted work
that somebody else is, that somebody else did, and then you
make it your own. I'm I just, I think this is a very great.
Area, and I wouldn't have condemned I
Adam Curry: will throw one flag up. I just looked at the at the
Creative Commons license that Wikipedia uses, attribution,

So she is violated. Violated the Copyright, All right. And now
that I'm Yeah, you got me, and now that I'm speaking like an
Indian, the Brahman, Brahman, the Brahmins have spoken. We
received an email from Sir abs, dear Adam and John, as a Brahmin
Knight, I am officially denouncing Kamala Harris on
behalf of my community. Adam said in the last show that no
Brahmins have written into the show denouncing Kamala. So
you're going to assume Brahmins back Kamala just because of her
cast. I'm letting you know this is not the case. We want nothing
to do with her. She's a swamp creature, and we're just as fed
up as everyone else is with these types. Thanks, sir abs,
your Brahmin Knight.
John C Dvorak: I was very amused by that note. It's
Adam Curry: great. Well, we had to go back and say, Come on. We
need some explanation. He did. It came in two notes. We did
have to kind of coax it out of him. A little bit, a little bit
very, very entertained by the Chris Wallace show on CNN on
Saturday. I'm
John C Dvorak: glad you got clips of that. Oh,
Adam Curry: well, it's, you know, my favorite person is on
the show.
John C Dvorak: I Yes, you seem to have I'm now thinking you're
obsessed.
Adam Curry: I listen to the professor and Kara Swisher to
understand what the liberal media is thinking, because they
just put it out there as an example, they are completely
convinced that Trump just decided to start saying nothing
at one of his rallies for 16 minutes.
John C Dvorak: Oh, there's the one where the poor woman almost
died. No,
Adam Curry: no, no, no. That was the dance party which also
happened for no reason. He just happened. It was no reason so
they never mind
John C Dvorak: is when the microphone went out. Yes, the
whole the whole sound system, microphone went out. What's
Adam Curry: he supposed to do? Yeah, and they're like, Trump,
no, but this is a dementia. This is dementia. God,
John C Dvorak: what is wrong with these people dementia? I'm
Adam Curry: telling you. Well, what is wrong? This is why I
listen to it. It's very hard to watch MSNBC, by the way, no one
watches MSNBC, nobody watches CNN. There's some people who
watch Fox more than the others, but even that, a lot of those
shows no one watches. The only reason why the mainstream is
kept alive is carrier fees, which are carriage fees, which
are diminishing quickly as people cut the cord, and the
fact that people post clips of it,
John C Dvorak: if people there's more viewing of the clips than
there is of the shows, absolutely.
Adam Curry: So if people would stop posting clips, then no one
would know what they said. But oh no, no, we can't do that,
because we can't. I'm a reporter. I'm reporting on this.
This is not rare. Anyway, I'm gonna do I'm just as bad,
obviously, without the mainstream, we have no show. Or
we just be deconstructing licks Friedman. We
John C Dvorak: could be we, well, we could be deconstructing
pockets, or we can read stuff, reimprinted material, and
deconstruct that sounds
Adam Curry: like a lot of fun. We could get AI voices to read
them to a man that France 24 is using that AI voice all the
time. Now, complete packages are just read by that AI voice, oh,
that's no good. I don't think so. Either. It's not an
offensive voice. It will come up later. I don't remember which
clip it is. Anyway, I
John C Dvorak: have a couple AI clips for that. Here is,
Adam Curry: here's the Chris Wallace show, and they're
talking about Kamala Harris being, not being a communist.
She's not a communist. She's not a communist. Stop it. I have to
say,
Unknown: though, I am just so exhausted by the idea that she
Adam Curry: is Lulu. By the way, Lulu. Lulu Garcia, yes,
John C Dvorak: Lulu is who's no one's ever heard of it. She's
made a name for herself recently. She's a New York Times
reporter.
Adam Curry: I looked her up. I have to say I was more impressed
than you are letting on here. She let me see she was NPR
bureau chief in Mexico City, Baghdad and Jerusalem. Opened
the bureau.
John C Dvorak: Sounds suspicious. Spook, much? Open,
no. Spook. Open
Adam Curry: the bureau, no, it's Oopsie. Open the bureau in Rio
de Janeiro, her coverage of the Israeli Palestinians. Conflict
and dispatches of the Arab Spring uprisings brought her
name is gassar Garcia Navarro, multiple awards in 2012
including the Edward R Murrow award, Peabody awards, plural
for her coverage of the Libyan revolt. We came. We saw he died.
And most importantly, her series on the Amazon rainforest. One to
Peabody. Finalist, Hey, we should. We should. Finalist,
that's not winning.
John C Dvorak: That's not winning is just nothing.
Adam Curry: She started her career as a freelance journalist
for the BBC World Service and Voice of America. Hello.
Unknown: Speaker,
John C Dvorak: wow. Okay, you got you got me flat footed here.
I had no idea that this was, this goes back. She did a good
job of staying under the radar. As far as I'm concerned. Well,
Adam Curry: both, I mean, all world services, certainly the
BBC World Service. I, you know, before I when I was still
working at the pirate radio station. I was someone had said,
Hey, this guy does stuff in English. He does radio and the
Dutch World Service at, you know, interviewed me or had me
in for an interview to see if I wanted to work for them. And
what was that guy's name? It was, well, he was a British guy.
And I was like, why is a British guy running the Dutch Vidal
ummru, the World Service for the Netherlands? And much later, I
realized, of course, he was a British spook running his mi
six. Mi six, of course. So when you're a freelance journalist
for the BBC World Service and Voice of America, tribunal to
Cuba, Syria, Panama, and several European countries. Wow. So at
least we know a little bit more about our our friends,
John C Dvorak: debt, debt. I'm impressed. All right. Here we
go.
Unknown: I have to say, though, I am just so exhausted by the
idea that she is so far left and that she's a communist. They try
this for Biden in 2020, Biden's economy, by the way, stop.
John C Dvorak: This is what guy? Yeah, I saw this series too, and
it was like, and I didn't, I didn't clip it, but it was like,
who, when and where did they call Biden a communist. I don't
do you remember this? We covered the campaign very closely. When
was Biden ever called a communist?
Adam Curry: I don't think he has ever been called a communist.
John C Dvorak: I don't think so either. So why do they drop this
little nugget? This Biden was also called a communist. Why is
this night? This has to be for a reason, not as you bring up that
she's a spook. It has to be for some spook reason.
Adam Curry: It was Jonathan marks who ran the the Dutch
World Service. Let me see if I can. Am I six? Let me see
John C Dvorak: we still preoccupied with that. Anyway.
Who was that guy who tried to you could have been a spook.
Unknown: They tried this for Biden in 2020. Biden's a
communist. If he gets into power, the entire country is
going to collapse. I mean, this is something I hear in Miami all
the time, and pretty far left,
John C Dvorak: I'm sorry, I missed. No, no, no, no, it's
Adam Curry: okay, because I understand this is why the clip
has been chosen.
John C Dvorak: Did she say she's hearing this in Miami?
Adam Curry: Oh, there's a lot going on in Miami. Yes, there's
reasons. She says, I have the other clips why she's hearing
Okay, I'm
John C Dvorak: gonna try to shut up.
Adam Curry: No, no, no. Interrupt as much as you want,
entire country
Unknown: is going to collapse. I mean, this is something I hear
in Miami all the time, and she said
a lot of pretty far left
Biden. Biden was not a communist. The country hasn't
fallen into communism. And I will say that she, in 2019 said
some things that definitely fall into the progressive camp, which
she has now recanted, and although
never explaining why. You
never good enough, like, literally,
you had this view on decriminalization. You had this
view, what's your explanation? My values haven't changed. What
happened
with Donald Trump and abortion
he was for? What about, ism I'm not. No, I don't want to do the
water. What I want to say is, there is a real question about,
what does Kamala Harris actually believe? And that is, I think, a
fair question to be pressed on. I'm not saying that it isn't.
What I think is not fair is this is just the extrapolation from
that, that somehow she is the next sort of, you know, Mao Tse
Tung that's going to come over here.
Anybody's saying that, but anyway, Donald Trump.
We're going to get to talk about Donald Trump. All right,
Adam Curry: I'm going to do the Donald Trump because Kara's
featured on that. Then I'm going to come back to this Miami
thing, which plays into what Lulu was saying. There
Unknown: is no proof that tech companies colluding. To do this.
This is nonsense, and he knows it.
I'm sorry, there was a major institutional effort.
No, there was absolutely, I have been one of the biggest critics
of tech. This is nonsense, absolutely nonsense. And when he
just discounts, she's,
Adam Curry: by the way, biggest critic of tech, what you do is
you go advertise on the pivot podcast. Apple advertises on
Pivot. I don't think Apple is advertised on anything. In
podcasting, they advertise on pivot and come and Kamala Kara's
all like, Oh, I I love the new iPhone. I love the vision Pro.
Makes so much sense. Yes, spatial computing is great. They
are bought and sold for on that show. I'm saying it, biggest
critics in
Unknown: tech. This is nonsense, absolutely nonsense. And when he
just discounts, are the court cases, dozens thrown off
Twitter. They were and then they Scott, let me try again to
explain to you what actually happened. Made a mistake.
Adam Curry: She's trying to correct the Hunter Biden laptop
story, where the New York Post was kicked off Twitter, and now
she's trying to say, no, no, they made a mistake, and they
corrected it. This is quite unbelievable.
Unknown: Thrown off Twitter. They were and then they Scott,
let me try again to explain to you what actually happened.
That's
Adam Curry: a mansplaining
Unknown: the New York Post
really hard to deal with, repeating things that aren't
true. Did they get thrown off Twitter? They did, and then they
said that we made a mistake, and they put them right back. Them
John C Dvorak: right back on
Adam Curry: No. And he even says it was after the election, and
listened to her lie things
Unknown: that aren't true. Did they get thrown off Twitter?
They did. And then they said that we made a mistake, and they
put them right back, just like CNN does, just like the New York
Times. It wasn't after the election, it was during the
time, and they switched back Dorsey switch
Adam Curry: during the time, and they switched back Dorsey switch
switch. But Kara Swisher, shame on
Unknown: you. So I think what the issue is is you think
Twitter is the government. You think Twitter is running things,
and there's not this wide collusion. But, and Jeanne Vance
knows that because he's worked in tech, he knows
Adam Curry: there, do you see what she's saying? There was not
widespread collusion. It's so nasty.
Unknown: What the issue is is you think Twitter is the
government. You think Twitter is running things, and there is not
John C Dvorak: this. Who on the panel said that they think
Twitter is the government. Nobody
Adam Curry: said that, but she's, that's Scott Jensen, I
think the guy who's, uh, supposedly, a conservative. But
then here comes the lie.
John C Dvorak: Oh yeah, by the way, these shows, because I was
watching one of the other day, I was gonna take some clips on
this. It's like, why? What's the the point is futile. Oh, it's
fine. They have a fake they was on one of the shows. I'm trying
to think, which one I can think in a minute, but it's one of the
MSNBC shows. Where you have the we have a Democrat and a
Republican strategist. And the Republican strategist is someone
no one's ever heard of. She worked for Cuomo, and she was,
she hates Trump, yeah. I mean, what kind of this is bullcrap?
They did listen to these phony baloneys. They just like
bringing oh, here's Adam Kissinger, you know, represented
the Republican Party, and he's going to be standing here with
Liz Cheney, who's, who's endorsing a bunch of Democrats
for various congressional offices in Texas. This is
bullcrap that they people. Anyone believe this?
Adam Curry: Oh, sorry. No.
Unknown: You think Twitter is running things, and there is not
this wide collusion, but and GDB is wide
Adam Curry: collusion, there's not this wide collusion, narrow
your you are a disgrace to podcasting.
John C Dvorak: Oh, that's coming from the podfather. The
podfather
Adam Curry: has spoken
Unknown: because he's worked in tech, he knows there are,
there's no such thing as big tech. There are big tech
companies. They do not collude on
this issue.
Adam Curry: Thank you. Thank you for setting me up. Perfect.
Okay, so because it was actually NPR, who are, who are leading
the story on what's happening with the Latinos, the Hispanics,
the Cubanos in Miami, and they're baffled. There was
Unknown: a Marist poll that showed nearly 60% will support
Trump in November. Now, Florida has also had this long and
significant population of conservative Cuban Americans.
But I'm just curious, like, what's causing this? What's
behind the movement? How
Adam Curry: about. Um, the Democrat Party sucks.
Unknown: Yeah. I mean, I think Miami Dade County in South
Florida is, um, is a very specific example, right? So
Miami Dade County, of course, it's the most populous county in
the state. It has a lot of political power, but the
majority are, to your point, they're Cuban American,
conservative, Cuban Americans, and so I think for decades, rep,
Adam Curry: how come they don't say far right Cuban Americans.
How come now it's just conservative Cuban Americans.
You guys got to get your style guide right Cuban
Unknown: American, conservative Cuban Americans. So I think for
decades, Republicans have been doing something really well, and
that is sort of casting Democrats as socialists, not as
communists. Sort of manipulating the meaning of words so that,
right now, if you turn on the radio, if you turn on some of
the local news, it's pretty common to hear that Vice
President Kamala Harris is Comrade Harris, right? So that's
a very intentional sort of effort. That's not
Adam Curry: But Wait, didn't George Soros buy all the radio
stations? How can this b That makes no sense. He bought all
the Latino radio stations. He was going to flip the election
with the stupid Spanish people who listen to am radio, huh?
Unknown: Vice President Kamala Harris is Comrade Harris, right?
And so that's a very intentional sort of effort. That's not new.
It's been happening for decades, and so I'm not completely
surprised that Donald Trump could potentially become the
first Republican presidential candidate to win the Latino vote
in Florida in the in the last 20 years,
and he's working hard to do it this election. Here he is in a
town hall this week with Univision when he was asked
about immigration. They're
coming in totally nobody knows who they are, where they come
from, and the people that are most against it are the Hispanic
people. They are totally against it. What's happened?
They're eating the dogs. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: that's a girl's greatest that's a clip of the
year. Yeah,
Adam Curry: yeah. So you want to hear more of that. Are you? Are
you kidding?
John C Dvorak: I find this hilarious. Oh
Adam Curry: yeah, this so they and this guy is just feigning,
is I don't understand, but they're people of color. That
makes no sense. How can they like Hitler Stalin, Nazi?
Unknown: I'm struck by something that he said there. He said the
people that are most against it, this illegal immigration subject
that he talks so much about,
Adam Curry: are the people who came in legally turd or
Hispanic. What
Unknown: do you make of that?
I mean, look, even it's kind of surreal that Donald Trump feels
so comfortable stepping into Miami, Dade County, where
there's so many immigrants, and so comfortable stepping into
these Spanish language spaces like Univision
Adam Curry: Spanish what spaces Hold on a second. What
John C Dvorak: are these spaces? Spanish language spaces? Oh,
Adam Curry: is that on x a Spanish language space into
Unknown: Miami, Dade County, where there's so many
immigrants, and so comfortable stepping into these Spanish
language spaces like Univision and using this anti immigrant
rhetoric. I mean, if we were having this conversation 510,
years ago, I honestly wouldn't, wouldn't believe that, but I
think that comfort level is exactly what places like Fox
News are paying attention.
Adam Curry: Is this this woman? No, this is not Lulu. Lulu is
coming back up in a moment. Who is this? This is someone. This
is some other NPR expert. Because you know, when you're
doing a story on I'd like the racist
John C Dvorak: angle that she uses, as if, if you're a
Hispanic, you have to love every illegal that comes in if they
have brown skin, yeah, not recognizing the fact that even
the white population in the turn of the century, the white
population, the Italians and whoever was in the Country,
hated the Irish, who were also white. That's right, when they
came in, they didn't like them. And now and then we back when
the Italians came in, the whites that were already there didn't
like the these are whites not liking whites coming in. Why
wouldn't the Hispanics exhibit the same characteristics unless
they're racist, like this woman is obviously racist. 10
Adam Curry: PR, the National Public racist
Unknown: comfort level is exactly what places like Fox
News are paying attention to, right? And it's this comfort
level that I think stems from the idea that the polls are
showing that a majority of Latinos, including foreign born
Latinos, aren't insulted when Donald Trump uses this anti
immigrant rhetoric, right? They see this sort of wall between
You're right.
Adam Curry: She can only see color of skin, like anti anti
illegal immigration rhetoric. But I mean,
John C Dvorak: this is the Democrats dilemma. They are
inherently racist to the bone themselves
Unknown: as Latinos and the other as immigrants.
Well, you would talk talk more about that, because in this town
hall, he doubled down on his false argument that migrants
were eating people's pets, eating the
Adam Curry: dogs dust. So racist that he said that
Unknown: argument that migrants were eating people's pets in
Ohio, you're right, this anti immigrant rhetoric, it doesn't
seem to be doing anything to erode his support with these
voters at all. But I don't understand that because they're
not eating their
pets. Look. I
mean, I think, I think immigration is the closing
argument for Donald Trump, right? I think he's very
intentionally trying to reenact that 2016 BUILD THE WALL moment,
and now getting an even more visceral reaction through send
them back. And I think the difference between 2020 and 2024
is that they've understood that even Latinos, right, even the
descendants of immigrants, these
Adam Curry: people, they must get picked up by limo in the
morning with blackened windows so they don't see what's
actually happening in on the streets of America. Or, you
know, they're too busy reading their scripts, or some things
like, Don't you see that? I
John C Dvorak: think the limbo argument is probably the valid
one. Can
Unknown: tap into that nativism and that was that anger. It may
not make sense, but just from, from, from a practical level, if
you have someone that is creating such fear through fear
mongering and information and trying to get Americans believe
that there's this existential threat happening in your door,
like people believe that, no, and so I think it's, it's the
tactic is simple, get people to vote out of fear.
Adam Curry: Well, I don't know about you miss NPR, but right
down the road in San Antonio, 20 Venezuelan gang members were
arrested who had apartment complexes completely under
siege. So that's kind of on my doorstep, so I don't know you're
in the limo reading your scripts. All right, so now we'll
go to Lulu, because Lulu interviewed JD Vance, and again,
it's about the hunter laptop and the and the big tech censorship.
Because, for some reason, Lulu, she is the New York Times
comment. Is the New York Times podcast. I think she just can't
see that that actually happened, or she hasn't looked up the
timeline, or, I don't know, in
Unknown: the debate, you were asked to clarify, if you believe
Trump lost the 2020 election? Do you believe he lost the 2020
election? I
think that Donald Trump and I have both raised a number of
issues with the 2020 election, but we're focused on the future.
I think there's an obsession here. With focusing on 2020 I'm
much more worried about what happened after 2020 which is a
wide open border, groceries that are unaffordable and look.
Senator,
yes or no,
yes, Donald Trump,
Adam Curry: yes, no. I'm Lulu. I'm from the New York Times.
Senator, yes or no, he just it's a yes or no question. Do they
think they're in Congress? Because Congress does all that's
exactly
John C Dvorak: what it sounds like. Is a congressional but
she's obvious. If your thesis, thesis, what kind of what do you
mean? Thesis, my reason, obvious, my facts, you're
bringing this up. She has got the government meant she's got
government? Yes, yes. So she's going to act like one, yeah,
Unknown: exactly, unaffordable. And look, Senator
yes or no. By the way,
Adam Curry: that sounds like an edit too. Maybe it's just me,
Unknown: border groceries that are unaffordable. And look,
Senator yes or no. Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?
Let
me ask you a question. Is it okay?
Adam Curry: Good one. Vance, that
Unknown: big technology companies censored the Hunter
Biden laptop story which independent analysis have said
cost Donald Trump millions of votes.
Senator, Vance, I'm going to ask you again, did Donald Trump lose
the 2020 election? Did
big technology companies censor a story that independent studies
have suggested would have cost Trump millions of votes.
I'm going to ask you again, did Donald Trump lose the 25
answered
your question with another question. You answer my question
and I'll answer yours.
Adam Curry: My brain is melting from this nonsense, but let's
keep it going. Let's keep it going because now we get some
news. I
John C Dvorak: like it when it turns into a pissing contest.
Oh, Vance is good at that. At least no Vance is. I'm actually
more impressed with this guy over the over the
Adam Curry: you didn't like him in the beginning. You were not a
fan. I
John C Dvorak: did not like him. I think he without his beer,
especially without his beard. He looks like like a, like a young,
uh, mean spirited Rush Limbaugh. He looks like Rush Limbaugh
without his beard, and, and he's cocky, but the beard, I think
the beard, softens his look and makes you think differently
about him, because it's a modern look, and, and when you start
listening to him do his thing, yeah, he is so sharp, yeah, that
you have to start to like him.
Adam Curry: All right, we continue now. New terms.
Unknown: I have asked this question repeatedly. It is
something that is very important for the American people to know.
There is no proof, legal or otherwise, that Donald Trump did
not lose the 2020, election. You're.
Eating a slogan rather than engaging with what I'm saying,
which is that when our own technology firms engage in
industrial scale censorship, by the way, back industrial scale
censorship set by the federal government in a way that
independent studies suggest affect the votes. I'm worried
about Americans who feel like there were problems in 2020 I'm
not worried about this slogan that people throw Well, every
court case went this way. I'm talking about something very
discreet, a problem of censorship in this country that
I do think affected things in 2020 and more importantly, that
led to Kamala Harris's governments, which has screwed
this country up in a big way.
Adam Curry: All right, these are pretty short. So one more here,
Senator,
Unknown: would you have certified the election in 2020?
Yes or no, I've said that I
would have voted against certification because of the
concern that I just raised. I think that when you have
technology companies, the answer is no. When you have technology
companies censoring Americans at a mass scale in a way that,
again, independent studies have suggested affect the vote, I
think that it's right to protest against that, to criticize that,
and that's a totally reasonable thing. So
the answer is no.
Adam Curry: Oh, Lulu, all right, this final one will bring us to
another important topic. And
John C Dvorak: the last question I need to follow this woman,
because what all you brought up?
Adam Curry: Oh, no, she's, she's an important character, because
John C Dvorak: she's obviously been brought to the fore because
she, I never heard of her until this recent you know, she's been
obviously showing up here and there, out of the blue, by the
way, she have an agent. How do you do that? Oh, I'm sure she
has an agent. I'm sure she does. You run into these reporter from
the New York Times with an agent out of the blue. She starts
showing up on stuff. She's just out of the blue. She's now, now
a player. How does that work? Well, it works because somebody
else is behind it all.
Unknown: And the last question, will you support the election
results this time and commit to a peaceful transfer of power?
Well, first
of all, of course, we commit to a peaceful transfer of power. We
are going to have a peaceful transfer of power. I of course
believe that peaceful transfer of power is going to make Donald
Trump the next President of the United States. But if there are
problems, of course, in the same way that Democrats protested in
2004 and Donald Trump raised issues in 2020 we're going to
make sure that this election counts, that every legal ballot
is counted. We've filed almost 100 lawsuits at the RNC to try
to ensure that every legal ballot has counted. I think you
would maybe criticize that. We see that as an important effort
to ensure election integrity, but certainly we're going to
respect the results in 2024 and I feel very confident they're
going to make Donald
Adam Curry: Trump the next president. So about this
peaceful transfer of power? And a lot of people email me this,
and I think there's been some misunderstanding, and certainly,
oh, let me say it some misinformation about this
presidential brief to the Department of Defense, which is
DoD directive five to 401. I'm sure you've received emails
about this.
John C Dvorak: I watched a presentation on this particular
by Jimmy Dore, no, God No no, by a guy who's x in x is crazy, and
I think it's called s2 or s3 it's a podcast, but this guy's
wearing a mask. He claims to have been in the Department of
Defense, in that secretive little agency they have, yeah,
which is, is the spookiest of the spook agencies we, I think
we did the DoD agency, and he analyzes this to an extreme, and
had to, I thought, broke it down in a very reasonable he's good
this guy. Well,
Adam Curry: let me tell you my takeaway, and tell me if that
fits with what the masked guy said. Because, you know, this is
a legal document, so you know, and if, and if you don't
understand, this is an update to to directive for the Department
of Defense. 521, dot O dot five, six, from November of 2020, so
before January 6, even then you don't understand that this has
been on the books for a long time, and it doesn't he takes it
back to 2007 Yes, you can take it back further. And it doesn't
actually give permission to for the for the military to come in
and start shooting people at all, at all, at all. What it
does do, and this is, I think, is actually more interesting
than the way people are discussing it is it broadens the
special authority to buy bypass Congress. So, in fact, it was
not even Nancy Pelosi call to bring in the National Guard or
the military, and it gives the President and the Secretary of
Defense more leeway to invoke this, which is assistance, but
it's not necessarily a violation of the posse commentatis Act,
which I'm against. All of this in general, I don't think any of
this is good, but. It really makes who was, who was in
charge, who was the Secretary of Defense during January 6?
John C Dvorak: I'm not sure
Adam Curry: was that Millie? I think it was Millie. No, no.
John C Dvorak: Millie was never the secretary. No, he
Adam Curry: was Joint Chiefs of Staff, right? Well, I'm thinking
this really strengthens Trump's case even more. And I'm not so
sure why, you know, and well, yeah, I You can argue that this
is put in because they know Trump's going to win and that
the nut jobs are going to be out. We need some, we need some,
some loosened authority. But this is not new. That's my
point. This is not really new. But everyone approached like, oh
my god, they're gonna start killing Maga if, if Trump loses,
I don't, first of all, I don't think mag is gonna go crazy.
Second of all, I don't think that's on deck. What did your
mask man say? He
John C Dvorak: says it's really about using drones domestically.
Yeah, it's
Adam Curry: surveillance, exactly, exactly, surveillance
and, yeah, and that kind of stuff. But it's not a you cannot
deploy the military against American citizens. There are
some very specific cases where you can do that, which is
mentioned in the in both of these. But it's really, you
know, terrorism and a couple other things, is not for out of
control protest.
John C Dvorak: Now, unfortunately, I think I want to
get back and on track to what you were talking about before
you brought this in, which I didn't think was applies, is
that the end of that last back and forth with was Trump. But
you know about the 2020 election. It's beyond me why
Vance and all the rest of them don't bring up the fact that to
this day, Hillary thinks she won the 2016 election, and it was a
not my president era, and Trump was it was a fraudulent and they
went on and on and out to this day, Hillary thinks she won 2016
and what's the difference between Trump thinking he won
2020 and Hillary, to this day, thinking she won 2016 and the
Democrats and the and the pundits, and nobody says
anything about it, though it never happened. That's
Adam Curry: not exactly what she says. She says Russia stole it
for Trump. She's she's very, she's very smart about that. She
doesn't say, I
John C Dvorak: Okay. The point is, she still thinks she should
have been President. Yes. Well,
Adam Curry: now you sound like Twitter. I sound like Twitter.
People on Twitter talk about this all the time? Well,
John C Dvorak: I don't talk about it on Twitter all the
time. I just know funny. I
Adam Curry: didn't say you talk about on Twitter. No, and the
domain, the more damning to me is the Democrats,
John C Dvorak: including, hold on a second, what this damn
machine wants to you. Came up with a oh no, on a reboot.
Adam Curry: Oh no, no. No. Sleep later.
John C Dvorak: Signage thing went, he
Adam Curry: went away. You can't, you can't just stop it.
It's gonna just reboot. I don't know
John C Dvorak: if you go, if I go offline, you know the reason
keep moving
Adam Curry: the mouse, whatever you do, keep moving. Keep moving
the mouse. No more damning is when, uh, who's the lady who ate
the salad with her comb, the what? Yeah, the senator who ate
the she was, she ran for president, uh, with the with
the, come on. She ate this. She was Elizabeth
John C Dvorak: Warren, no, no. Klobuchar. Klobuchar, Klobuchar,
Klobuchar, the one that throws the staplers, yeah?
Adam Curry: And who ate the salad with her fork, yeah? I
mean, with those comb, with her comb, she, she was on a panel
with multiple Democrats saying, you know, the machines are
rigged. That's more damning to me, but that's not brought up
very often. Anyway, I
John C Dvorak: do have nothing is brought up. This whole thing
is a charade. Well,
Adam Curry: no, if people would stop posting crap on social
media, no one would even be talking about
John C Dvorak: it. Well, that's not gonna happen. No, I
Adam Curry: know. Now you brought in a clip, which, again,
this is one of these. What is wrong with shrimp? He says he's
the father of IVF, yeah. But upon further analysis, you can
interpret what he said in a different way, and I'm going to
set you up So Neil, but you can. You're good enough at this to
hear what you hear. I think he says, I'm father of IVFs, as in,
he has fathered children through IVF.
Unknown: Listen carefully tonight FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD
TRUMP under fire after making this strange claim about in
vitro fertilization to an all female town hall, I want to
talk about IVF. I'm the father of IVF. I want to hear this
question. He
Adam Curry: doesn't say I'm the father of IVF. He says, I'm the
father of IVFs.
John C Dvorak: He does, which says IVFs, so maybe
Adam Curry: Baron was IVF. Think about it. Let that sink in. Wow.
John C Dvorak: I'll give you that one. You get two today.
Unknown: All female town halls. Oh, I
want to talk about IVF? I'm the father of IVF, so I want to hear
this
Adam Curry: question. So I think he that one of his kids, at
least, maybe must be plural if he says IVFs, because there's a
clear s in there. Now, of course, he's just demented, so,
you know, but I
John C Dvorak: want to bring a clip in, uh, because it's based
on what you were just discussing about this Lula woman and her
commentary. Lulu, Lulu, Lulu is a
Adam Curry: lulu, yeah, Lulu. That's her first.
John C Dvorak: And the fact that the people drive around in limbo
and they don't have a clue, and they're reading this, which I
believe, which I believe is true. It brings us to Anna
Kasparian,
Adam Curry: the famous Oh, and finally, Anna Kasparian, I've
been waiting yes because she has
John C Dvorak: had an experience that kind of turned her off,
onto on certain kinds of thinking. Now explain who she is
first, Anna Kasparian is the girl the the Armenian girl that
six knit sits next to chunk yugar on the on the Young Turk
show, which is on various cable networks. And hugr is probably
the father of the socialist Democrats movement. He it's not
got anything to do with it anymore, but he's the one
probably behind, I would say it was very radical, certainly
during she's an extreme. She's a very lying communist, very well,
I
Adam Curry: don't know about that, but she was very hateful
of Trump and very hateful of Republicans. She's
John C Dvorak: a very hateful girl. Now, she
Adam Curry: was quite hateful,
John C Dvorak: and here she is now in 2022
Unknown: it was around March. I was walking my dog. It was not
quite dark yet, but the sun was setting as I'm walking my dog, I
see these two guys that they're eating the dogs in 2022 it was
around March. I was walking my dog. It was not quite dark yet,
but the sun was setting as I'm walking my dog, I see these two
guys that were, they were just kind of, like, moving around
weirdly, you know, they seem kind of manic, and their clothes
were tattered. So I just, I knew that they were probably
homeless, and I also knew that they're probably on something
just based on, like, the twitchy way they were acting, but living
in LA, I mean, I've, there's homeless people everywhere,
right? So I've never had problems. I didn't think
anything of it. But as I was bending down to pick up my dog's
mess, one of the guys like grabs me by my hips and he had an
erection, and just starts like, who's
Adam Curry: who's still providing the commentary?
John C Dvorak: Oh, God, who did that? That was
Adam Curry: Jillian Jillian Michaels.
John C Dvorak: This was an interview with Jillian Michaels
on her podcast. I
Adam Curry: like Jillian Michaels. She's she's doing
interesting shows these days. One of the
Unknown: guys like grabs me by my hips, and he had an erection,
oh God, and just starts like, humping me.
Adam Curry: Jillian, we might point out as a lesbian. So, yes,
it's extra interesting. She's given this commentary,
Unknown: and I I didn't know what to do, like I was
terrified. I didn't have a weapon on me, like I had no way
of defending myself. I didn't know how far it was gonna go,
because it's two guys. I'm by myself with my little dog,
terrified. It was the what, like one of the most terrifying
things ever, because I believe that I'm pretty good at
defending myself in that moment, I just knew there were there was
no option, yeah, yeah. And luckily, he stopped, and they
just laughed at me and walked away as they were laughing at
me. And so there was the fear, and then the humiliation and
weirdly shame, like I felt ashamed for some reason, and it
was awful, and it was really taking a toll on my mental
health, because I have to walk my dog, right? So at
Adam Curry: least I can't wait. I have not heard this clip. I'm
curious where this is going. Two
Unknown: or three times a day I'm going outside kind of
scared, and so I opened up about this on the show, not really
thinking much of it. And before I know it, I'm starting to get
these messages, and it's like you need to really, really harsh
stuff, and it's about how you are painting a picture of the
homeless community. You know, how could you be like this? You
know, these are your unhoused neighbors, and they need help.
What you know, a few people accused me of being racist when
I had never disclosed the race of the individuals who did this
to me, and in fact, they were white. And so like when they
started accusing me of being racist, I'm like, wait a minute.
Why are you assuming that the people who did this? Of course,
yeah, like. I think you might have a problem here exactly.
Yeah, that woke me up. That woke me up because I'm like, Oh, my
God.
Adam Curry: Oh, well, that's interesting. I didn't know that
that was her awakening story.
Unknown: Yeah,
Adam Curry: she's gone much further. It
John C Dvorak: wasn't, it wasn't the event itself. It was the
reaction to her talking about it, right, right, right. That
got her that woke her up. She realized that she was amongst
Adam Curry: a holes, because now, yeah, now she's being
excoriated, and the left hate her and are telling chunk he
should fire her. And,
John C Dvorak: yeah, she's out of the club, and chunks keeping
her for sure, because he likes her on the show. She's a good
foil. She has good things to say, and she's a natural
broadcaster. She sure is, and it's like, this is, I'm sure
she's going to end up becoming a Republican,
Adam Curry: well, if not, and she continues to be a journalist
or a TV personality, according to Morning Joe, she's going to
be on the list. This isn't
Unknown: a Republican Party right now, and they know it. So
there are those who are like, wow, this isn't the party I
recognize. But what's the permission structure? Are you
hearing it from any of your Republican friends in the
business community? This,
Adam Curry: by the way, who you hear in a moment is Donnie
Deutsch, former advertising executive.
John C Dvorak: That guy has lost control. Yeah, he
Adam Curry: went from, I mean, back in the day, and I'm talking
mid 90s, when I was in advertising in New York, Donny
Deutsch was Donny Deutsch, man. He's, he's quite the dude, and
now he's just Donny douche.
Unknown: That can be created for a vote for Kamala Harris at a
time like this.
You know, I talk, as we all talk to a lot of people who vote for
Trump, and I say to them, and I still can't figure out, do they
not believe it, or do they not care? Do they not understand
that our freedom is on the line? Do they not get that, or do they
just not care? Do they take freedom for granted at this
point? And I challenge people, and I say, You do understand
that he will, he will turn on this country, and he will turn
us into Hungary. Do you not understand the freedoms that
started as you brought it up? It started with Roe v Wade. It will
continue. It will continue by putting his enemies in jail, it
will continue on having unfree media. Are there people around
this table that are really worried? Rev, are you worried
going forward, that you're on a list if Donald Trump is elected?
Yes or no, I'm
convinced I'll be on the list. I don't know how we're not going
to be and think
about that. This is America. This is the United States of
America, and people in the media like the rev have to be
concerned that they may be on a list. I have people saying to
me, Donnie, are
Adam Curry: you worried this is America? Well, I'm on a list.
I'm on. I'm on Trump's list. I'm a journalist. I'm gonna be
thrown in jail because he said that. Except he didn't.
John C Dvorak: He never said that. And is it? Are they
talking about the kind of Liz list that Tulsi Gabbard is on?
So she gets routed when she tries to get an error? Is it a
list like that? Exactly?
Adam Curry: Now, this is, well, we are in the final. What are we
now, 14, you know, 14 days, and you and I have just succumbed to
it. I mean, this is our fifth, our fifth rodeo. And so we just
have to this is all that the news is. There's some other
interesting stuff that we'll talk about, but you know, we're
just going to go through it all with you. For instance, breaking
new evidence former President
Unknown: Trump is calling the federal judge in this case,
Tanya jutkin, an evil person, for releasing these nearly 2000
pages of evidence submitted by Special Counsel Jack Smith, in
one of the depositions released today, a White House aide told
investigators, when Trump was informed,
Adam Curry: oh, here it comes. This is, this is the damning
evidence there was rioting
Unknown: at the Capitol, January 6, he responded by saying, Oh,
really, let's go see then the aide handed him the TV remote
control, the aide said he then went to grab Trump a Diet Coke.
Oh no, oh
no, throw him in
jail. Jack Smith has argued Trump scrolled his phone and
watched the attack on TV that day without immediately calling
off the rioters. Trump tried to delay the police
John C Dvorak: to do that, by the way, how is he supposed to
call off the rioters? Did they all have the earpieces? And he
was going to how is that supposed to work? The
Adam Curry: same way he killed the bill in Congress. Just make
some phone calls. You know, that's what it does.
Unknown: Calling off the rioters. Trump tried to delay
the release of these passages until after the election, but
Nora judge chuckin ruled holding back the information itself from
the public would be election interference.
Adam Curry: Now listen to this verse.
John C Dvorak: Oh my god. You know why he wanted to hold it
back. I can tell you because he didn't want to promote Coca
Cola. They've been woke and he doesn't need this promotion for
Coca Cola. Ask for a Diet Coke.
Adam Curry: Hold on a second. So listen to this. This is a great.
Version of the
Unknown: report the judge overseeing Donald Trump's 2020
election interference case unsealed nearly 2000 pages of
documents. The majority are heavily redacted, but they do
provide a small glimpse into the evidence that prosecutors will
present if the case goes to trial. Most of the material has
already been made public. It includes a transcript of Trump's
phone call, pressuring Georgia election official. Now
Adam Curry: listen for the quote. Listen for the quote.
This is what gets interesting. Includes
Unknown: a transcript of Trump's phone call pressuring Georgia
election officials to quote, find enough votes to reverse his
election loss in the state to Joe Biden.
Adam Curry: That's not a quote. He's making a whole run on
scent. What happened to end quote,
John C Dvorak: come on, yeah. Was poor form.
Adam Curry: Very poor form. So I guess the most entertaining
thing was the Al Smith dinner? Yes,
John C Dvorak: I have a couple of clips. I have some I have a
series of analysis of the dinner, but then I also have the
top five jokes that I didn't want to Yeah, I wanted to play a
couple of the gags that because Trump is funny.
Adam Curry: Can I play a seven second intro from ABC? Good
Morning America?
John C Dvorak: I Yes, please. The candidates appeared
Unknown: at a Catholic fundraiser last night, one in
person, the other by video. But it didn't take long for things
to take a darker turn, a
Adam Curry: darker turn. It took a very, very dark turn. This is
give us the background of the Al Smith dinner. So people, by the
way, love seeing the money honey there with her hair all in a bun
and her long white gloves. Marita barter, Maria Bartiromo
is fun to watch. She is fun to watch.
John C Dvorak: The L Smith dinner is a traditional dinner I
think goes back 70 years, and it refers to Al Smith, the first
Catholic I ever ran for president against Franklin
Roosevelt. And so they had the Catholic Charities put this
dinner on in his memory. And it became a tradition, and I think
it's in New York, and they had, and they get 10s of millions of
dollars to give away. And it the idea was, and we've seen Trump
at this I think on the show, we had some clips of, like four
years ago when he was against.
Adam Curry: Was that against Hillary? No,
John C Dvorak: I think it was no. That was actually she was at
the thing in 2016
Adam Curry: that was 2016 when, okay, it
John C Dvorak: was 20 it was a while ago. Yeah, and it was, it
was funny, because the Hillary and him both went at each other,
and even though he'd made some disparaging remarks about his
performance, at that old one be thinking it was too dark. Then,
of course, then he did gags again, but the idea is, you come
up and you do disparaging jokes about everybody you can, and
it's almost like a roast, but you're kind of given a free
reign. It's more like a Don Rickles Insult Comic hour. You'd
come up and you insult a bunch of people, and it's all for good
fun, and then you that's the end of it. And so that's basically
how what the NSA and it's a black tie affair, and only the
bigwigs. And as Trump put it, sorry,
Adam Curry: I think it's a white tie affair. Honestly, everybody
was white ties. Trump had a black tie. I know he was. He was
breaking protocol. It was a white tie event. Well,
John C Dvorak: the point is, is that they have, these guys are
all loaded. And they started off with, they usually have a real
comic, come on. And they, in this case, it was Jim Gaffigan,
who was quite
Adam Curry: good. I have a couple of clips from Gaffigan if
you want to hear any less. Yeah, you can play
John C Dvorak: those, because I don't have any Gaffigan clips,
but he was quite balanced, and it was annoying to Trump, yes,
not he thought Gaffigan was funny. And I watched Gaffigan as
Trump talked, to see what Gaffigan laughed at, because
Gaffigan is a professional and he laughed at the better
material and but he was irked. Trump was irked. And I think
he's kind of plant Tech was kind of chicken shit that he did.
He's does it in a good natured way. But he, he was irked at
Gaffigan got to use teleprompters, yes, and, and
nobody else got to use the teleprompters. And Gaffigan had
to put this act together, I think, quickly. So he needed a
teleprompter because he wasn't going to read from to read from
paper. And Trump read from paper, yeah? And when Trump did
his material, he read, he read the setup line and then looked
up and gave the punch line, yeah. And I thought it was
extremely well done for somebody who didn't have a prompter in
front of him, or he didn't have a rehearsed act, because this
was not rehearsed. I
Adam Curry: wonder who wrote it. I wonder who wrote Trump's
jokes. There's a guy. I
John C Dvorak: could not get his name, but he's been writing for
Trump for a while, apparently, and he writes a lot of gutfield
kind of referred to him because they accused the gut filled
staff, who's got about five writers that are all usually on
the show a lot. Yeah, and they got filled. So it wasn't any of
his writers, but he knew the guy who was, who was his main
writer. He's got one joke writer, and probably a couple
other guys contributing, but we don't know. So anyway, Gaffigan,
I thought was good.
Adam Curry: He was really good. I mean, I'll you play your
clips. Yeah, play the
John C Dvorak: Gaffigan clips, because they came before
Adam Curry: I'm over, clipped on Gaffigan. Play the funny ones.
Well, they're all fun. They were all really funny. And just, you
know, just so we started it off. Your Eminence, President Trump,
First Lady, random millionaires who are not yet billionaires.
Welcome to the 79th annual Al Smith Memorial dinner. As you
can please give it up as you can see how we're dressed. The theme
again is, let them eat cake. So then he goes after, you know,
after the DNC, kind of funny. Of course, Joe Biden was our second
Catholic president, right after JFK president. Biden couldn't be
here tonight the DNC made sure of that. It was, it was good. It
was a good little ribbing. Then he, of course, he's making jokes
about jokes about the Democrats that don't matter, such as mayor
Adams. Ten million is pretty impressive. I mean, granted, it
could bet you a studio apartment in Manhattan, which seems, you
know, expensive, especially considering you can get a mayor
for two business class flights you Oh, is, is? Oh, did I break?
I didn't think we had borders anymore. Intelligent joke was
funny enough. And then this was really the crux of of his, of
his whole thing there. This is a very nimble thing that I'm
trying to do, right? Because if I am too critical of President
of Vice President Harris, I will, you know, I will lose
friendships, and, you know, and mess up my career. And if I am
too critical of President Trump, I will lose friendships and
improve my career. Good laughs, good laughs.
John C Dvorak: Good line.
Adam Curry: He was here was another one that I thought was a
good line. The media has begun discussing the phenomena of
secret Trump voters. I don't know if you've heard about this,
people who publicly say they would never vote for Trump, but
then when they go in the voting booth, they do. It's a small
group. They're called the Biden family, and then final one here,
President Trump, before I invite you up here to the podium, I
want you to know if you are reelected, I always liked you,
and I'm not saying that because I don't want to be sent to a
labor camp. Yeah, it was a good he had some good stuff. He had
some before I play the
John C Dvorak: Trump jokes, I want to play the rundown, which
was done on NPR and and most of the liberal media hated the
Trump routine. He had some dark not funny, yeah, although
Stelter said it was funny, was he really? He broke ranks? Yeah.
Well, he's
Adam Curry: not really working for him anymore. He has to be
edgy.
John C Dvorak: So, yeah, that's spot edgy. Yeah. So Al Smith.
This is Al Smith on NPR. Former
Unknown: President Trump spoke at the Al Smith dinner in New
York City, Thursday night dinner to raise money for Catholic
Charities and often a regular stop every election cycle for
political candidates
tradition halls that I'm supposed to tell a few self
deprecating jokes this evening. So here it goes. Nope, I've got
nothing. I've got nothing.
Well, he did have one line about how happy he was to appear in
New York without a subpoena. And PR senior editor correspondent
Ron Alvin joins us now. Ron, thanks for being with us. Good
to be with you. Scott, maybe not many self deprecating jokes, but
Donald Trump made several personal and in a couple of
instances, salacious Japes, not sure they can be called jokes in
front of the cardinal and aimed at his political opponents. Did
his speech go, I have to say, beyond the bounds of decency.
And what does that say about political discourse these
days? It says
we're still very much in the age of Trump. He's setting the tone
once again, just as he's been doing for nearly a decade.
Here's one of his lines. From this week's Al Smith,
right now we have someone in the White House who can barely talk,
barely put together two coherent sentences, who seems to have
mental faculties of a child. Said, there's a person that has
nothing going no intelligence whatsoever. But enough about
Kamala Harris,
Adam Curry: so that was one of the lines that people can judge
for this. John. So that was one of the lines we really, you
know, if we laugh at anything, you know, we wouldn't get the
limo. We'd get, you know, regular old town car. So, yeah,
John C Dvorak: if people got a good laugh, it was a fun it was
a classic comedic construction where you talk you sounds like
you're talking about one person, either the switcheroo at the
end, classic, yeah. And I thought it was well, well
executed, since you had to read it and and everything's, oh no,
it's and it was, I didn't have any clips from the view, but the
view was unbelievably hateful. And there's supposed to be some
comics on there, yeah, they found nothing funny about it. It
was, it was beyond the pale. It was insulting. Is terrible,
terrible, terrible. Let's go to clip two from the NPR report.
Chris skipped
Adam Curry: the event. She sent a video instead, and she used
that to take a couple of jabs at Trump, saying that his lies
about the election violated the bearing false witness clause of
the 10 Commandments. Trump said that was disrespectful, but her
campaign may have decided overall, there was little upside
in seeing her there.
Unknown: Also this week, Donald Trump danced for half an hour
during a town hall. He refused to answer some questions at an
appearance at the Chicago Economic Club, backed out of a
CNBC interview. Is this causing any concerns among his
supporters about his fitness for high office.
Adam Curry: It's probably more disturbing to Harris voters than
Trump voters who are more or less accustomed to taking these
things in stride, and lately it extends to these last minute
cancelations. You mentioned CNBC. He also stiffed CBS 60
minutes. One of his campaign staffers has been quoted saying
that he's cutting back on his schedule because he's exhausted,
and at times, at least, he has seemed so. NBC posted a video
last night that appears to show Trump nodding off, eyes closed,
head bobbing at one of his own campaign events. On the other
hand, you have the more aggressive media strategy, as we
saw this week at the end of a 20 minute segment on Fox and
Friends and morning show, he announced he was going that day
to meet with Rupert, meaning Rupert Murdoch, the man behind
all things Fox. He already, we already knew that Trump has been
upset with the number of Harris surrogates and ads that have
appeared on Fox, and Trump said he was going to ask Rupert, as
he called him to cut these off and cut off negative ads for the
rest of the campaign, adding then I think we'll have the
victory. Oh, my God,
John C Dvorak: would they have a microphone in the meeting? Who
Are they kidding?
Adam Curry: No, but, oh, that's so serious. No wonder nobody
wants to listen to this nonsense, because it's just
putting me This is putting me to sleep.
John C Dvorak: Part three, and we're gonna go to Trump.
Unknown: Meanwhile, Kamala Harris was on Fox News, probably
not what most pollsters would call her demographic. What did
you see in her appearance
here? Again, it
Adam Curry: depends on which camp you ask Trump. Folks tended
to say she had been exposed and evasive. Harris. Folks were
proud of how she based the slings and arrows and
interruptions and held her ground on Fox. They were also
pleased just with the contrast Harris going on Fox while Trump
was canceling interviews and complaining about fact checkers
and tough questions
Unknown: and Pierre Ron Elvin, thanks so much for being with
us. Well,
Adam Curry: that's what Kamala does. She's not campaigning.
She's campaigning. That's her new thing
John C Dvorak: here. That's a good one. Thank you. Just before
I get to Trump, you might as well listen to what, hey, the
summary. I got a summary of Harris's talk. One of the best
ones, I'm from Brett bear. This is the Harris says Trump clip
was just
Unknown: over two weeks to go to the 11. I'm sorry. Sorry. Wrong
one.
John C Dvorak: This is the, this is what, this is a compilation
of Harris's comments on the Bret bear. This is great reporting.
Donald Trump. Democrats
Unknown: voted to Donald
Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald
Trump,
Donald Trump,
Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Donald Trump,
Adam Curry: yeah, yeah, I saw that one even I didn't want to
clip that one. But
John C Dvorak: okay, yeah, I couldn't. I
Adam Curry: just had to resist. You couldn't resist, I
John C Dvorak: know. So I got the Trump top five jokes from
the Smith the. Gags and and since the NPR people and I guess
MSNBC, they don't, nobody gets the jokes or they didn't think
they were funny, so I added except for the last joke. And
the only reason I took this clip, by the way, because their
top number one joke was the one I was going to run anyway,
because I thought it was the funniest gag. It's at the very
end. It's the top one. But since the other ones that people can't
get I added I sweetened them with a rim shot, so people would
know when there was a punchline, when to laugh.
Unknown: I used to think that Democrats were crazy for saying
that men have periods. But then I met Tim waltz. Well, I'd
better wrap up, because Mayor Adams told me earlier that I
needed to make this one very quick, especially the city has
reserved this room for a large group of illegal aliens coming
in from Texas. There's a group called white dudes for Harris.
Have you seen this? White dudes for Harris? Anybody know some of
you here white dudes, that doesn't sound like it, but I'm
not worried about them at all, because their wives and their
wives lovers are all voting for me. A major issue in this race
is child care, and Kamala has put forward a concept of a plan.
A lot of people don't like it. The only piece of advice I would
have for her and the event that she wins, would be not to let
her husband, Doug anywhere near the nannies. Just keep them
away.
Adam Curry: Whoa, that did not work over well,
Unknown: that's that nasty one. Chuck Schumer is here looking
very glum.
But look on the bright side, Chuck, considering how woke your
party has become. If Kamala loses, you still have a chance
to become the first woman president
Adam Curry: that was, without a doubt, the best one.
John C Dvorak: It was pretty funny.
Adam Curry: You know, the reason why I think everyone's so down
about it is because Harris wasn't there, you know, she now,
I don't think she is capable of doing this type of shtick. It
would have been, you know, I would have even accepted if,
who's the SNL lady? If she had showed up, that would have been
at least funny. What's her name? The who plays Kamala?
Unknown: Yeah, I
John C Dvorak: don't remember her name. Yeah, she's decent.
She's almost as good as the best. Oh
Adam Curry: yeah, she's really good. And instead, the vice
president does a video with Mary Kate, which is
John C Dvorak: insulting to the Catholics. Wow.
Adam Curry: Well, on that note, here we go. Very Catholic. Tons
Unknown: of Catholics in Pennsylvania, and it is the
largest swing state. I'm not
negating that, right? No, I'm missing if I'm advising the
vice president as
Adam Curry: a Catholic, by the way, this is CNN.
Unknown: This wasn't a big thing, but this was shared all
over social media for Catholics, Gretchen, Whitmer, giving like
the Dorito as a Eucharist. Okay, guys, she made it. I'm telling
you. I'm telling you what Catholics were sharing social
media. You could sit there and say it wasn't intended. That's
what people took it, as I agree. So then for that, from a few
weeks ago to all of a sudden, sharp skipping the big Catholic
event for politics, the biggest one, and a long history of
Democrats continuing to slip at the Catholic vote, it is an
incredibly strategy. I think it was smart for Trump to be there.
I
absolutely agree. I
think it was smart for her to be somewhere else. Just
looking at the numbers, I
wonder, I
mean, the gettable Catholics for Kamala Harris, the
Adam Curry: gettable Catholics are, do
Unknown: they really?
Are they really looking at the Al Smith dinner and saying, Oh,
my God, she's not there. They're thinking, does she like people
like me? That's a big question for Kamala. Does she actually
like people like me? Considering, like, take a
midwife, take a Pennsylvania voter who heard Obama say they
clinked their guns in their Bibles, who had Hillary Clinton
feel like they were very far away. Joe Biden was abortion
is the pivot issue for those Catholics.
It's not it's been what it's the Catholic schools. It is being
good on your economy. It is understanding family economics,
stuff like that, and also being relatable to working class
issues and not putting them down. Basically
the same issues that everybody
cultural part of it that is specifically Catholic.
Adam Curry: I thought that the insulting part was Mary, Mary
Kate that, I mean, Darren O'Neill said it best. I heard
him earlier during the Rock and Roll pre show. He said they
brought out some comedian who was on Saturday Night Live when
I was three. Yeah, you know, it's like, yeah, that and it's
just, and it all fell flat. It just it. I mean, I wanted it to
be funny, but it wasn't. I mean, no, it wasn't. It just wasn't
funny. Was not a lot of humor. Kamala
John C Dvorak: has no sense of humor. We talked about in the
last show that people who insist. Laugh for no reason.
Yeah, are always fearful that there's something funny going
on, and they don't want to be left out. And you see this with
all kinds of people, they just laugh, but no inappropriately.
Yeah, and, and Kamala, with that ridiculous giggle she throws in
at the end of everything, thinking maybe she said
something funny. She doesn't know. She's got no sense of
humor. Most of the people that thought Trump's bit was not
funny at all. It was dark. It wasn't dark. It wasn't even
close to being dark. No. So what are you gonna do? You got a
humorless group of people that are just gonna, you know, they
don't get anything. They're they're just, I don't know
subhuman Well, in that regard,
Adam Curry: i Wow. No, I'm
John C Dvorak: sorry. Okay. Dolph, okay, I don't mean, I
mean, no, we lack you. They lack human compassion. Because you,
if you don't see humor, you have some problems. John C
Adam Curry: Dvorak on the apes everybody. Meanwhile, if Trump
does not win, I will miss him for doing stuff like this on Fox
and Friends,
Unknown: we got a six year old from Massachusetts, and he wants
to know about your favorite animal. This was President. My
name is Briar. I'm six years old. I
live on the farm in Massachusetts. What's your
favorite farm animal? Favorite farm animal?
I'll tell you what I love. I love cows. But if we go with
Kamala, you won't have any cows. I don't want to ruin this kid's
day. I love cows. I think they're so cute and so beautiful
and tasty. But according to Kamala, who's a radical left
lunatic, you will not have any cows anymore. So we have to go
to
Adam Curry: I love cows. Ah, this is great. There's
John C Dvorak: dimensionality to that comment too. Although, you
know, the Hindus do like cows, but
Adam Curry: they won't. They won't eat them. No, they won't
eat them. Oh, I see the dimensionality you're aiming at.
Interesting, the Indian vibe. And then this was, I think this
was at his town hall. They had a bunch of pre selected people.
And this was a former Green Beret who stood up, good
Unknown: evening, Mr. President. I'm John frankman. I was a
special forces Green Beret who was forced out of the military
because the covid 19 vaccine.
The Biden Harris DoD covid 19 vaccine mandate was very
damaging to the military. It forced 1000s and service members
out, and 1000s did not want to join. Now the Biden Harris DOD
has the lowest recruiting in modern history, and now they're
pushing more woke training. So how do you plan to repair the
military from the damage that was done, and hold military
leaders accountable?
So I want to have them come back into the military with pay. And
you know, they've been talking about that, but it never
happened. They never did what they said they were going to do.
They should have never been a mandate. That should have never
happened. You should have been given choices. We say we want
choice in education, and we we want a choice there too. And
that should have never happened. And you know, we've lost some of
our best people in the military too. Did you leave? Did you
leave? Did you ever take the vaccine? Or I never did, sir,
yeah. You want a choice. Yeah. You want it? Would you go back
in
if they were able to, as long as there's accountability
potential? Yeah, no,
there'll be accountability. Is right? They can fire their
asses. We don't want to lose this guy.
Adam Curry: So he's, he's definitely moving towards, Hey,
I just did the vaccine. I didn't mandate it. I didn't say it was
mandated. That's, that's going to be his, yeah, that's
John C Dvorak: the best he's going to be able to do. I mean,
he's got Kennedy hounding him. Yeah? Well,
Adam Curry: he's, he's doing a lot of like, Oh, what are this
like? Enough vaccine for a horse. They're giving it to a
baby. So he's out there talking about it. We had a, the big
Fredericksburg meetup here in town on Friday, it said a bar
1776 that's Jenny's bar.
John C Dvorak: There's a bar called 1776 Oh, yeah. Well,
she's
Adam Curry: a j6 or two, yeah. But there were actually a number
of j6 women there, and also December 16 women who, I
John C Dvorak: think they were called by the FBI.
Adam Curry: I'm sure there must have been a spook somewhere. It
was nice. Probably about 45 people. I'd say it was really
nice. People came from all over Texas. Some people came from
drove from Arizona. A lot of our favorites were there from Texas,
of course, Baron Scott, dirty jersey, whore, Rob, the
Constitution. Lawyer Tina was there was we had a very good
time. What was interesting is when, because I hadn't done a
meetup in a couple of months, I guess, to hear the horror
stories about vaccines in the workplace, one of our producers
is a compounding pharmacist in a in a hospital system, and he
does a lot of the chemo compounding stuff. And he, yeah,
that has to be customized. He falsified his own vaccine record
because, well, if you're a pharmacist, you can and
Unknown: fill it out a form. And in
Adam Curry: his in his department, which is relatively
small, three people now have cancer. And he says, I they if I
bring it up, you know, they just get mad. And this like no and
correlation is not causation, and it's unbelievable how these
professionals can't even see through it. Also, we had two air
traffic, air traffic controllers, one who got an
exemption, the other one, he says, I'm so mad, but yeah, I
got the VAX. And so I you know you, and you know me with the
fly boys, you know when we're talking about what's going on.
And I said, you so, because they actually have to move around the
going to it. They've gone from where they are currently.
They've been placed in Atlanta because Atlanta doesn't have
enough air traffic controllers. I think they're doing the tower.
And I say, Well, this is dei is they say, well, it's we don't
care about Dei, but these people don't qualify. They can't pass
the test. So they brought all these people into the program to
become an air traffic controller, and they're just not
good enough. They're dumb. And then this happened in Austin
tonight.
Unknown: The FAA investigating how a pact 737, and a Cessna
nearly collided head on in midair this week over Texas. You
want to declare near miss. Let
us know. American
Airlines Flight 2587 was making its final approach to Austin,
Bergstrom International Airport around 10:45am Wednesday, in
foggy conditions, when, according to the FAA, a single
engine, Cessna r1 82 unexpectedly entered the flight
path. This animation showing the Cessna, which, at the time, was
not in communication with air traffic controllers flying
underneath the American plane coming within 400 feet of it,
the American Crew alerted by the plane's traffic collision
avoidance system, or TCAS, the system, warning the pilots to
change course immediately to avoid a midair collision.
Did you ever see him the second time around we saw when he
flashed up and flew right into us?
There were a series of things that led up to this near midair
collision, but the American jet had a capability on board that
would warrant it, and told it to turn away from this small, light
civil aircraft. So at the end of the day, it was the technology
on board the American aircraft that saved this from becoming a
disaster.
And David, just days ago, the FAA began auditing 45 of the
nation's busiest airports to really understand why we're
seeing so many of these close calls.
Adam Curry: What could it be? We have no idea, but we need to do
an investigation. I don't understand it at all, and I this
report is very misleading. Okay. TCAS, oh, big deal. I mean,
every airplane I fly in has. TCAS, how does a 182 get into
your airspace without you knowing about it? I mean, that
that is what makes no sense. Everybody has a squawk,
everybody has a transponder. You're telling me there was an
aircraft that didn't have their transponder on, and so you're
not talking to them and you and you're tracking them. No, this
is bad air traffic control. That's what that is. It's, you
know? And there may be some pilots with some issues at
United. Maybe, I don't know, but American is American, and
American anyway. So on that happy note, I'd like to say in
the morning to you, the man who put the C, or is it a decay in
campaigning, say hello to my friend on the other end. Ladies
Gentlemen,
John C Dvorak: curry, the morning should see what's on the
ground, feet, in the air. And hello.
Adam Curry: 3334 2135 Go ahead. Low, go ahead and say, low.
We're a couple lows. Low, it's low, but they're not 200 300
low. They're low, but not slow. They are the trolls. They are in
the troll room@trollroom.io that's how you can join the live
stream. No agenda. Dot stream. It's 24/7 there's always
something going on. It's a great community. A lot of trolls who
came to the meet up as well. And I will be thanking some of the
people who gave on the spot. Donations in our donation
segment, it was, it was quite and again. Thank you very much.
Jenny, for bar 1776 and before Moon Bed and Breakfast, there
were a bunch of classic cars out front. Turns out this is
basically right near lukenbach, and this, I think, today or
yesterday, and today is a classic car show in lukenbach,
and so there were a couple of people there, and this one
Hispanic dude comes up to me. He's like, Hey, man, like, hey
in the morning. He says, What in the morning? I don't know what
you said, man, but I remember you from headbangers ball, and
he had a couple of Mustangs there, and it was good. Everyone
integrated very well, very nicely. You can also listen to
our live stream and be alerted when this takes place by using
one of the modern podcast apps, which you can find at podcast
apps.com I would recommend for live listening and the live

or in your App Store for Android and iOS. Really good app, and
they have music on there as well. Now, value for value
music. So you can check that out. We are, of course, a value
for value program, which we pioneered. It's almost 17 years
ago. John, on the 26th are we celebrating our anniversary
right before or right after? Because the 26 is, I think a
Saturday
John C Dvorak: is obsessed. 26 when there would be there'd be
Sunday show, would be the 20 show, grocery show, okay, so
that'll
Adam Curry: be the anniversary show, okay, yeah. Can you
believe it, man, 17 years.
Unknown: Yeah, what?
Adam Curry: And we never had a fight.
Unknown: Speak up
Adam Curry: 17 years our fifth presidential cycle, and we still
enjoy serving you to try and help you make sense out of your
world by deconstructing all the nonsense in it as part of our
value for value, which means we give you everything for free.
All the value is out there. There's no premium content, no
firewalls, no pay walls, no hoops to jump through, no
specific times you have to tune in, no subscription, no ads, no
in fact, all you do is you send back your time, your talent or
your treasure, whatever the show is value to you. And we love
boots on the ground. We love the clip help we get. We also love
the treasure, and of course, we love our artists who bring us
great value every single show, so we can have fresh new art to
show and display and promote the show. And we feel it does work.
We want to thank our artists for episode 1704, we titled that
one, hello, which I haven't said yet. So far the show, I'm doing
really well. Yeah, you
John C Dvorak: did earlier. No, I
Adam Curry: didn't. No, I said that didn't count. That. No, I
did not. It was, well,
John C Dvorak: you know, I didn't say it counted. I said,
you said it now, okay, well, I
Adam Curry: just said it now too. But it wasn't, it wasn't
the context. Parker Polly, our Black Knight, brought us the
artwork for 1704 and this was, you know, we were looking at a
number of different pieces, and we hadn't even discussed the
topic, but then looking at it, and he originally made this as a
as a bat signal art, because it had the show number on it, 1704
a microphone in A mic stand, but landing like Elon's incredibly
impressive rocket being grabbed, the booster, the booster,
booster being grabbed by grab Zilla. Hey, you want to impress
me land on the moon, please. Boy, that's
John C Dvorak: the only I will say this, the only this piece
was controversial and is picked because, as you said, we never
even talked about that. And I said, well, and he says, You
know what? If they can do that like, you know, they land on the
moon. 1969 what was the big deal? Then the lunar module
Adam Curry: floated down, landed perfectly, blasted off again,
completely reusable. Yeah, now, but for some reason this is
amazing. Oh, it's amazing. Well,
John C Dvorak: it's because it's so big, that's the reason it's a
big clunker, as opposed to the cute little module. I
Adam Curry: mean, if you go back to one of our previous episodes,
and gosh, I want to say that was in the 1200s and Elam was doing
this. You know, these landings on on the pad at the time, I
said, you know, this is because they gave him the anti gravity
technology, and you have to be careful, because it always spins
up hurricanes. So the coincidence is not lost on me. I
mean,
John C Dvorak: I had two when did you Yeah? When did that come
to your mind? That was episode 1200 No, no, I'm saying, When
did that most recent iteration of the same thought here in your
brain? Oh, when
Adam Curry: someone emailed me the clip? Oh, yeah. No, what?
Oh, I'm sorry. You're trying to tell. Me My memory is, is not
good. It's failing. Okay, what? That's my new job. That's my new
one.
John C Dvorak: Okay, yeah, well, it takes over from Hello, yes,
Adam Curry: it was, was it our Duke of the the of the Arabian
Peninsula. He said, You know, I have experience with this, and
the best way for you to get rid of it is to just, oh yeah, say
it incessantly. So the idea is, I want to hurt everybody on the
show by saying this over and over again until I stop. No, I
can stop this. I have this willpower. I have, I have this
willpower. So thank you. Parker, Pauly, let's take a look. We
had. We did have some discussion over the copy machine in the
cornfield.
John C Dvorak: It was a pretty piece, but it was kind of, I
don't know, it just didn't quite hit the mark. And I mean, this
microphone landing on the mic stand is a is good,
Adam Curry: and it's not AI. It doesn't look like AI to me. At
least created, no, I don't think so.
John C Dvorak: I think it was one of these hybrids. I think
most good these, the best art is hybrid, where you do the AI to
do the basic I have a, you know, we always talk about, I have a
bonus, a little bonus clip to play. Oh, because I came up with
some ideas of our official no agenda. Joke writer Marty
Higgins sent me this, and he's been following AI music
creation. Oh God. And I have this. You don't have to play
this whole song, obviously, but this is an AI song that was
created based on some very interesting prompting. And this
is a complete AI song which brought which brought me to some
thinking about hybridization. But can you play this

Nicholas Carr had a partner in sight, a wily man with mischief
on his mind, shot his mate and justice with life. The evidence
was clear, but the jury was swayed. Nicholas stood there
feeling dismayed, not guilty. They said it was a nod and a
cheer, but Nicholas knew he ought to live in fear. All
Adam Curry: right, here's the hard man can hide from Lost
heavy hand. What is this song about? I don't know what this
topic is. It's
John C Dvorak: about some guy who shot his partner in a gold
mine or something. It's a very complex I mean, it was based on
on some true story. But this song, Marty sent this in saying
he was really impressed with the fact that it was hard to tell.
It was, it was a AI song. Oh, but I was thinking going back to
die idea of hybridization. I came up with the idea you have
the AI create these songs, you do the cover, take credit for
the writing, and do them live, and put them on an album. I
think you get away with, oh
Adam Curry: no, as as demos. I think it's very valid, because
they do come although, I mean, so when I listen to these AI
songs in general, they just sound soulless to me and people,
if I may. Just as a little aside, you don't need to send me
any funny notebook. Lm podcasts. They're all eight minutes. I
don't even listen to them anymore. They're too long.
They're too long. And people keep saying, Hey, I got some end
of show songs in
Unknown: the morning sun. Let's all begin. Alan and John play
the cheeky grin.
Adam Curry: Yeah? Of course, with Buzz and cheer, we got
stories that you wanted, yeah?
John C Dvorak: And the reason you could tell the AI is
because, unlike our guys who create all this stuff for us,
the guy's actually in tune. So there is that element
immediately a giveaway.
Adam Curry: But, and I'm like, you know,
John C Dvorak: not singing off key there, no, no. That's like,
Adam Curry: I appreciate you did it, but I'm not gonna play this.
It's, it's, it's not good. It's just not good. If there was, I
didn't,
John C Dvorak: wish I played the whole thing. I just wasn't. I
thought it was good, and I thought the use of the banjo was
good. I thought it was a very I think you could fool somebody
with this, this song, this, my thinking is more of the
hybridization idea, where you have the AI do it, you cover it,
you take credit for the writing. It's all done on the side. You
would never know next thing you know you and I think that's what
we're getting with the best art to bring it back around in a
Trumpian way. I
Adam Curry: see the weave, you're doing the weave, I'm
doing
John C Dvorak: the weave. And so you get, you bring it back to
the art is. So the best art has been hybrid design, hybridized
by the artist who takes the AI piece and then adds, and I think
that that microphone was one of them. So a
Adam Curry: couple. Things. One, when you create it with Sumo, it
even says you now have the rights to this song and you can
publish it. Two, the little tricky bit of what you said is
cover it. You know, that's where it gets a little more difficult.
Cover it. It's not everybody can play and sing, you know? It's
just no, well, that's,
John C Dvorak: I mean, I can't do it, cover it, okay, so I'm
thinking of somebody who can, I mean, there are bands out there
that are specialized in coverage, doing cover songs,
because they can do it Sure. There are people with perfect
pitch. There are people that can play anything. You just play it
once, and then they can play it. I know these guys. I know a
number of them personally. They can listen and repeat. And those
are the guys who could take advantage of this situation.
Yeah, great if they wanted to, like
Adam Curry: everybody else except Taylor Swift. They too
can make no money on Spotify. So, you
John C Dvorak: know, we can maybe assume that some of Taylor
Swift's material is created like this, because maybe, although I
think it would be better if it was so I'm maybe I'm wrong. But
again,
Adam Curry: there's no money in music. No one is making money in
music, except Taylor and a few Spotify. Spotify speaking. No.
Spotify is barely making money. It's the publisher companies.
And what the publishing companies do is they, they go to
archive.org and sue them for $600 million because some songs
got scooped up in the archive. That's how money's made today in
the music business and the and the the blanket licenses to the
social media companies. That's how that's where the money is
nowhere else.
John C Dvorak: Well, Dad gum it
Adam Curry: there go there goes. Your great idea every Go ahead.
Everybody put all the effort into it. Now, value for value,
John C Dvorak: that's the only thing you can do. Yeah,
Adam Curry: well, it all sucks, and that, that song sucked. That
was, if you think that just because there's a banjo, it's a
good country song, and, no, no, I don't think it was any good.
That's just my I mean, what do I know about the music business?
John C Dvorak: Well, at this point in your age, oh, oh, don't
Adam Curry: start. Don't start, because I know a lot, and I can,
I can smell a hit from a mile away. That was not one, even for
the country boys. The troll room was going nuts. Okay, hey, let's
thank some people who sent us some treasure for the value for
value, which we appreciate long notes today, but as the notes
were too long, notes were rather long. We will read them, of
course, as we do with our executive and Associate
Executive producers,
John C Dvorak: but they're too long. Yeah, they're too
Adam Curry: long, yeah, but people have a lot to say as we
get closer to our 17th anniversary, and the notes are
nice. They're, you know, they are complimentary. So no,
Unknown: I appreciate it. I
Adam Curry: appreciate you. Can keep them a little shorter. We
appreciate it. And today we have we have a very rare show number
donation, which we start off with from Daniel Eckert in
Bernie, Texas. Go Texas. 1705. Very nice. You have to admit,
very nice. Say it, they very say, What do you go to the
bathroom already, just because, you know
John C Dvorak: it's a lot. I'm going to get the note that's
coming up. It's on the other desk. If you don't mind
Adam Curry: ITM gentlemen. Please accept the attached
donation of $1,705 please. I need a deduct. You've been
deduced. I haven't donated since being granted Associate
Executive Producer for show 163 so he this is a makeup for sure,
as a one time donor and a long time boner. I'm also asking for
a second deducing as 1542 shows since my last donation requires
that I double down on some karma as my douchebaggery has
approached governmental you've been deduced. I also want to
call out those freeloading bastards who are listening. Open
up your wallets, purses, encrypted keys or coupon books,
and share some love for no agenda. Thank you, John and
Adam, for restoring my faith in something I cannot state enough
how awesome it feels to know that I'm not just a tampon
string that the media tugs on as they dump their bull crap on my
head. That's a very interesting visual I got there. I didn't
like it as a new Knight, and soon to be Baronet, I would like
to be known as Sir April of May. One day I will claim a
territory. But for now, I am happy with this small donation
and can help produce the best podcast in the universe. I
request some maple syrup and bacon at my swearing in. I'm a
very strong believer in paying it forward, so please play Gitmo
nation, national anthem that's too long to play right now, and
we do. Maybe I could put it in the end of show mix for you.
That would actually work out okay. He would also like. Just
send your cash. And he would like two taps to the head. To
the head. Yes, we got that for the boners out there that hit
people in the mouth, but don't have the means to make a
donation. Daniel Eckert from South Texas, I know a lot of
people want to send blankets or water. Just send your cash now
before we go to the next one. John, I have $1,000 which came
in cash at the meetup in Chris, $100 bills from anonymous. ITM
in the interest of brevity, my only requests are to be deduced.
You've been deduced. Tend to receive a generous helping of
Yak karma, may I please assume the title of dame, Cabernet of
Horseshoe Bay. Thank you for keeping us sane while wildly
entertained. And that's it, from our from our anonymous assumed
to be dame. Thank you so much.
Unknown: You've got karma.
John C Dvorak: I see what you're doing.
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's what I'm doing,
John C Dvorak: sir. Charles in Thornton, Colorado, $500.33 Adam
and John, congrats on 17 years, gentlemen. I recently occurred
to me that I have been listening for a round.
Adam Curry: You missed a Buell John, Buell Vista, oh, yeah, you
skipped over one, Ah, there you go.
John C Dvorak: Forget what I said. Ron buells up. He's in
Vista California, and he came with 60106 which is even more.
This is the unofficial, official with your blessing. No agenda,
couples donation, 60106 is a couples is something. They think
that. And I don't know, you know, I can make some lewd
comment
Adam Curry: about this. Let's not, Oh, I see what it looks
like. Okay, I got it. Never mind.
John C Dvorak: It comes in two variety, small boobs and big
boobs. Okay, sorry. People can write 60106, and figure out our
gag. Sorry, fellas, we got only one designation. I would like to
transfer $60.94 of this donation of my smoking hot wife, Dame
liberty, Mom of homestead studies in California. She is a
sustaining donor, sharing her small boobs once a month for the
past 33 months. Okay, I'm sure she appreciates that comment,
for the past 33 months, so it only seems appropriate to help
get her to exactly $3,000 bringing her to Baroness status.
Oh, nice. She's, I think she's on the upgradation she is. I
need to stop, step up my game, and I will reserve the balance
of my donation to myself, which makes me a Commodore, as well as
making me eligible for this for a seat at the round table. So
he's good doubles. He's double double duty here. Please Knight
me sir, A, F, A and Beck of the Schiff wood forest. He's in the
area of Adam Schiff, where he is in Vista, good. Maybe this is a
tribute to some of the greats who ultimately led me to this
show. Hint, this is a Tom Woods donation. There's all already
plenty of at the round table, so he doesn't want a food. No
jingles, no karma. Okay.
Unknown: Time was donation. Then
Adam Curry: we go to Sir Charles. Did
John C Dvorak: that come?
Adam Curry: I don't know it showed up, Sir Charles from
Thornton, Colorado, $500.33 Adam and John refer to him. Congrats
on 17 years, gentlemen. It recently occurred to me that
I've been listening for around half of the show's existence,
yet I still feel like I missed out a great deal on the first
eight and a half years. Hey, you can you can find it at no agenda
show.net. You can listen to the art. Don't bother. Please accept
this 533 donation for a Commodore title if it pleases
the peerage committee. I would like to change my title from Sir
Charles of the coin operated laundromat to a shorter version
with a new title, Sir Charles commodore of the coin. It will
be so also, Please grant my weight my wife, Dame Courtney,
and me house buying and selling karma, as well as baby growing
karma for Dame Courtney, who was very pregnant with our third
human resource within the next 10 days, we will one, close on
our new house. Two, move. Three, witness the birth of our child,

your courage, sir. Charles commodore of the coin FKA, sir,
Charles of the coin operated laundromats

Victoria, soon to be Commodore. No jingles, no karma. Thank you
for your courage.

Adam Curry: It's just the island of Saipan. I
John C Dvorak: don't know the details, but I do know that the
guy who computer land wanted to set up shop there for some
reason, and there's some scandalous situation, I think,
well, Saipan
Adam Curry: isn't that where Bruce Springsteen wound up, born
in the USA,
John C Dvorak: one of the Americans where he's going to go
Trump gets elected.
Adam Curry: Hi, John and Adam, I had plans to make an executive
produced donation honor of my smoking hot husband's birthday,
November. But given his affinity for all things wind and waves, I
couldn't pass up the opportunity to make him a Commodore as well.
Please grant him the title of Commodore Big Boss Rob Jordan,
in honor of his 44th birthday, with love from his wife and
three, soon to be, four, human resources, I hope he knows it,
he would like to call out any cihs or CSPs in no agenda nation
who haven't donated as douchebags. What's a C i h or
CSP?
John C Dvorak: C i, h or CSP. I wonder what I have no idea.
Adam Curry: And as a shameless plug, because our company paid
for this donation for all your environmental health and safety
consulting needs in the western Pacific, please check out
coeths.com that's k, O, A, E, h, s.com and thank you for
continuing to keep us sane in this insane world. Cheers to

John C Dvorak: Kevin in Virginia, talking about Virginia
in Manassas actually $500 Good afternoon. John and Adam, I've
been listening to your show for a long time, and have made a
small donation in the past, but never enough to have a message
read. I will be celebrating my 33rd trip around the sun, code
word on Saturday the 19th. And I thought it would be the perfect
time to make a donation like this. During this promotion, I
would like to be known as Commodore Kevin and we want to
remind people that you go to no agenda rings.com and tell us,
put the information in there with an mailing address so you
can get your certificate with alacrity.
Adam Curry: I wanted to mention as a short interment here based
on the no agenda show, Dr Scott. We know Dr Scott. He does all
the chapter art for the modern podcast apps. His seven year old
daughter, Lucy, just passed her Technician exam.
John C Dvorak: Now that tells you something, she is
Adam Curry: now officially a ham. How is that cool? Or what a
John C Dvorak: seven year old ham and other people can't do
it,
Adam Curry: and I'm I have the honor of sending her her first
rig, and I'm very excited to hear her on the on the air. We
continue with congratulations. Lucy, great job. John B is in
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, $500 in the morning. Listener, for one
year, first time donor. I couldn't miss the Commodore
promotion. Can I be known as Commodore sloop? John B Well, of
course. Can I have a deduction and a Trump, they're eating the
dogs. Love you guys. Four more years,

John C Dvorak: Jean Harris in Winter Park Florida, 500 ITM
fellas, Commodore donation. I wanted to make sure I was
recently, was in, I was recently in Tromso Norway, and stopped by
the troll Museum in downtown Tromso,
Adam Curry: a troll museum cool.
John C Dvorak: I was disappointed they did not have a
section for the no agenda trolls, right? You may want to
contact them and see what can be added. Thanks so much for the
for providing some context to this crazy year. We're going
through no jingles, no karma.
Adam Curry: Milan janovich in Belgrade, that's in Serbia. Yes,
in Serbia. Oh man, we are bad. We are worldwide. In the
morning, Dear John and Adam, I've been following the best
podcast in the universe for a long time, since around episode
number 50, and my amygdala has remained nice and shrunken for
many happy years. I've managed to contribute to the show with
only few anonymous donations so far, but now I am finally in the
position to change that with becoming executive producer and
Commodore. Therefore I request a deducing for me and for my
beautiful and supportive wife, Vanessa, you've been deduced. I
can give advice so. Fellow producers who still have not
onboarded their significant others, that couples that listen
to no agenda together have stronger connection and a more
fulfilling relationship. I hear the sex is better too. Please
play the clips. There's no winning North Korean. News,
later news, Lady Announcer And don't ref. No karma. But I would
appreciate if you mention us and our kids, Mihailo and Gavrilo.
In your prayers, Consider it done. I hope that all your exit
strategies fail and you two go on with the show for many more
years, from Milan yovanovich in Belgrade Serbia,
Unknown: don't laugh. Why you are laughing? Shut up.
Shut up.
Oh, there's no winning. We don't like to foster a competitive
atmosphere, but we laugh a lot now. Everyone hug and share a
secret. The

have to read the note, yeah.
Adam Curry: This is from Sir R Daniels colsonick, New Jersey.
ITM gentlemen. I use that term loosely. Really, it's been a
while since I've attended a meet up. While this meetup was
somewhat smaller than a normal the normal, a great time was
had, and look forward to the next one. No agenda. Meetup site
is a bit wonky, as we all know. So it's at Garden State
distillery in Toms River New Jersey on November 2, starting
at 2pm also, here's my Commodore donation. No jingles. He says
karma for all. And he did add a nice little update. As you know,
he was the really, I think he was the chief operations officer
for a bit during the Project Veritas fracas and the upset.
And yes, he was an executive there, yes, and he resigned. He
says, I'm not involved in the organization, but James is
looking to get me and my other officers or board members on
camera in depositions. I will report back after my deposition
on November 18, and he says that he and a lot of his other ex
Project Veritas colleagues are still out there fighting the
good fight. Well, we appreciate that. We appreciate that you're
doing that. And he asked for some jobs karma for all who need
it. So let's hand it over, jobs,
Unknown: jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.

Arizona. She came in with 500 bucks, and what's the title

basin. Have no idea what that means, but we got you
John C Dvorak: now. We have Nora Neva from Livonia, Michigan, who
came in with a check for 500 made herself a Commodore, and
she sent a note, very harsh paper. She has very nice
printing, and she has an I want to send you a copy of this
eventually. Sue. We discussed this anomaly that you run into
with with she is a Gen Z, the V and the R is the exact same. Oh,
so it drifts off a little bit. I talked to Jay about this. It's
very interesting, okay, and she writes in Hello, Zionist shills,
Unknown: hello
John C Dvorak: doesn't count Gen Z. Listener here, everything you
boys say about our generation is true, besides the few of us that
are sharp, sharp. Thanks to the best podcast in the universe.
Shout out to my dad, Scott uh Neva and his douchebag friend,
Dave tarian, douchebag.

bittersweet. It has certainly helped Dame Kelly and I out of

the remaining stock, so we still have half left promo code. ITM

Adam Curry: So Gordon, Gordon Gibson from Kerrville, he was
the meetup. Now, this guy, he used to be an audio engineer,
and he started doing scratch tracks while he was setting up
for voiceovers. He has now been a guy doing voiceovers for 20
years, many national spots. In fact, apparently, I just
remembered he told me this during covid, when everyone was
like, they're making all these really, you know, like, like,
really sappy ads for, oh, we're all at home and we can't go
anywhere. And I think it was for a Pizza Hut, maybe, or
something. We, we made fun of it. And he was like, that was my
spot. This guy gets national, national spots, which is the way
to go if you're in the voiceover business. Oh yeah. He says, ITM

suck when you guys eventually find your exit strategy. Adam, I
recently moved, moved from Dallas to Kerrville. So howdy

Unknown: formula is this, we go out. We hit people in the mouth
due to climate change.
Adam Curry: No agenda, donations.com and again, these
credits are recognized by any place that does show business
credits that includes imdb.com, I would like to play a couple of
clips here regarding NATO and I'm. Not sure if this is NATO
getting everything ready for Trump to come in, or what
exactly is happening, but there's a lot of fear mongering.
This is based upon President zelenskyy Victory plan, which
was basically put me in NATO man Zelensky
Unknown: has been in Belgium drumming up support among
European Union and NATO allies. By
Adam Curry: the way, this is the AI voice again, this is France
24 using an AI voice
Unknown: military aid to rebuff the Russian invasion. He warned
that Russia has been receiving its own foreign aid
from our intelligence. We've got information that North Korea
sent technical personnel and offices to Ukraine on temporary
occupied territories, and they are preparing on their land,
10,000 soldiers, but they didn't move them already to Ukraine or
to Russia.
Zelensky has been selling what he calls his victory plan to end
the war in Ukraine. Major points of the plan include permission
to use Western supplied longer range missiles to strike
military targets deep inside Russia, as well as an invitation
for Ukraine to join NATO, steps that have been met with
reluctance by kyiv's allies so far. Nonetheless, the NATO chief
said that eventual Ukrainian accession is inevitable.
I've spoken of last few weeks,
Adam Curry: all allies, all the Allies have been to me in my
office there
Unknown: is absolutely, we will massively, massively make sure
that Ukraine has what it needs to fight the war, against the
war. We will continue doing that. And if anyone in the
Kremlin will think that by showing division, we will stop
this, no, this will not happen, and Ukraine will be member of
NATO. There is no doubt about no doubt about it. NATO
partners have been reluctant to invite Ukraine to join while
fighting is ongoing. Ukraine's membership could trigger NATO
security guarantee, thus dragging supporting countries
into the war with Russia.
Adam Curry: So the idea here is, let's get them into they're
probably going to do some kind of conditional membership,
anything to be able to expand the war to go against Russia.
What is not mentioned? I did have a chance to read through
the victory plan. The what Zelensky is saying is, if we
can't join NATO, our only option is to acquire nuclear weapons,
which, okay, that sounds kind of nefarious and and I have a how
they
John C Dvorak: let it? How do they these guys let this twerp
Adam Curry: threaten them? Like threaten who? This is the plan,
the
John C Dvorak: threat. Look, I'm going to use nukes, and
everyone's going to be des you blowed up if they if you don't
do what I want. No, this is give me more money. This is just
Adam Curry: a setup. This is just a setup. This is what NATO
wants. You heard you heard Rita. They will be a member of NATO.
This is a fact. And Putin is saying you should probably not
think about getting nuclear weapons. During
Unknown: a meeting with media representatives from BRICS
nations, Russian President Vladimir, Putin expressed
Moscow's willingness to engage in discussions aimed at
resolving the conflict in Ukraine. This is another
provocation. It is not difficult to create nuclear weapons in
modern world. Yeah, we
Adam Curry: know Iran will have it any day. Now, I do not know
any
Unknown: week whether Ukraine is capable of doing this. Now, it
is not so simple for today's Ukraine, but in general, there
are no big difficulties here. Everything is clear how it is
done. This is a dangerous provocation, because, of course,
any steps in this direction will be met with an appropriate
reaction. Ukraine. Ukrainian president volodmy Zelensky
indicated that Ukraine might pursue nuclear armament if it
does not receive NATO membership. He conveyed to
European Union leaders that Kyiv requires a robust deterrent to
counter Russian aggression. So
Adam Curry: this is this is not a message to threaten. This is a
message from the military industrial complex. Shore it up,
people. And they have their little spokes lady, Ruta, to do
their
John C Dvorak: work. And before you continue, if Ruta comes on
and says you're going to be a member, you know, take it or
leave it, you're going to be a member. What's the point of the
threat then?
Adam Curry: Because we don't know exactly, then it will
happen what we have
Unknown: said in Washington, and of course, I will constantly
repeat the language, but I think it was significant, the
irreversible path to NATO membership. So that means that,
yes, in the future, NATO will have as a 32 or 34th member, we
will have Ukraine,
Adam Curry: who else is coming in you? There's more coming. At
Unknown: the moment, it seems that it will be Ukraine as
number 33 but maybe somebody else pops in front of him.
Number
Adam Curry: 33 someone, someone else, someone else will pop in
front of him. He is number 33 someone else will pop in front
of him.
Unknown: But UK the magic number exactly, a member of NATO in the
future. That is what we decided in Washington. So the question
is not about the timeline. What we are doing now with the
pledge, pledge on track with what we are doing in Wiesbaden,
the command, what we are doing is all the bilateral aid going
into Ukraine, at the moment, all the efforts being coordinated
amongst allies to work on the reconstruction of Ukraine. Yes,
bring your money the fact that we have now J tech in Poland. J
tech, oh, what is J tech, which is working on the
interoperability of Ukraine with NATO,
Adam Curry: our bullets will fit in their guns. This
collectively, plus
Unknown: all the national security guarantees bilaterally
with Ukraine, they collectively constitute a bridge, a bridge
NATO membership. So then the question is exactly about when I
cannot answer that now at this moment, but clearly it is. We
are working on all these tracks to make sure that indeed, one
day there will be member of NATO. Yes, the
Adam Curry: J tech is jagov Tech. The only other person who
might pop in front of him, even though they're nowhere near us,
could possibly be South Korea. I'm thinking, because North
Korea is now basically in this war. South Korean
Unknown: intelligence has released these satellite images
claiming to show North Korean personnel gathered at a Russian
military facility in Khabarovsk. The spy agency believes North
Korea has already started sending troops to fight with
Russia in Ukraine, saying 1500 soldiers have already started
training. This
Adam Curry: sounds like some horse crap to me. No
John C Dvorak: kidding, but you know, when I heard this, Mimi
brought it up to me, and I said, This is bull crap. For one
thing, it's just bull crap. I mean, whether North Koreans
gonna go, they're gonna haul their ass all the way down to
Ukraine to fight for the Russians and not not defect, I
mean, or, I mean, the whole thing is, it's the most
ludicrous scenario I've ever heard. I mean, it's as bad as
well. And you know, the Russians can't make any armaments. So the
North Koreans, the North Koreans seem to be doing so much work
and then sending personnel to go. Why are they a poor country?
It doesn't make sense.
Adam Curry: The only thing I could think of is maybe they'll
have South Korea join NATO. I mean, it makes no sense, but
none of this. No, I
John C Dvorak: think, I think what you just I never thought of
that angle, but that could be, because they have talked about
Japan and the Asian countries, all of a sudden becoming part of
NATO, which I think we ridiculed about a year ago, and this was
brought up because it's North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
These guys aren't in the North Atlantic,
Adam Curry: no, but they have lots of cooperation with NATO.
There's lots of that, certainly in 2022, lots of things were
happening.
John C Dvorak: Then the, you know, this NATO thing is a is a
threat to world peace. So then
Adam Curry: the other thing that is happening, which I have two
clips on, is the bricks. The bricks have a big summit taking
place. Now. They had the pre summit this weekend, and
everything kicks off this I think tomorrow and Tuesday,
Russia's President
Unknown: Vladimir Putin says the BRICS group will generate most
of the global economic growth in the coming years due to its size
and relatively fast growth. He was speaking at the bloc's
Business Forum, which comes ahead of the BRICS summit, which
gets underway in Russia on Tuesday. Water bricks. The work
of bricks is not aimed against anyone. It's aimed only at one
general task, the sustainable development and flourishing of
our countries and people. It's a message that was welcomed by
participants who see a lot of opportunities for their
businesses in the BRICS countries. Here
Adam Curry: comes the South African delegate. The
opportunity for
Unknown: South Africa and for the African continent that is
presented by BRICS is absolutely massive. South Africa has
already seen
growth in trade because of our presence in BRICS,
Egypt has here's Egypt, so many projects within Africa. So
collaborative, cooperation with BRICS member states to do
projects in infrastructure with Egyptian companies is a benefit.
Win, win for both sides. Egypt imports 50% of its food, where
BRICS is one of the main supplier facing
isolation over Russia's actions in Ukraine. Putin hopes BRICS
will be a powerful counterweight to the West in both global trade
and politics.
Adam Curry: So what most people are interested in, what I'm
interested in, is the BRICS monetary system they be talking
about, which supposedly is going to be a bad. Basket of 40% gold
backed just gold, which we know China has been acquiring a lot
of, and Russia probably has a lot, and then some of the larger
currencies. And this weekend, they launched a demo, and I'll
tell you more about it, of BRICS pay during
Unknown: the BRICS business forum at the International Trade
Center in Moscow that was held on October the 17th through
October the 18th, a new BRICS pay card was revealed for the
first time. It is part of a new BRICS pay transaction settlement
system. So the card itself is just a small fraction of what is
to come and what the BRICS block is currently working on just as
intended, BRICS pay provides the bloc's member countries with
expanded payment options. During the conference, every single
person who was in attendance had an opportunity to test this new
BRICS pay card. I believe that each card had a balance on it
that allowed an individual to get a coffee or get a light
meal. It could be used during the forum on October the 17th
through October the 18th in stores with special BRICS pay
markings to activate that money, one needed to register in the
system and then just scan the QR code of the card itself to make
a payment. Once the registration was complete, a person needed to
scan that QR code from the screen of the employee's phone
in the cafe or store from the payment system. So it was quite
easy and very, very convenient. So
Adam Curry: they make it look like BRICS pay is a thing, and
they have real fancy graphics on their website. It's a spoken hub
model of the central banks, and basically the same as swift and
yes, thank you. Alberta guru, they missed a great marketing
opportunity by calling it bricks bucks, but I guess they didn't
consult us. What this is, what they what they have going now is
an app that is not in the app stores yet. It's a progressive
web app, and you have to in order to use bricks pay, you
have to enter in a Visa or MasterCard credit card. So it's
basically bricks Venmo is complete horse crap. There's
nothing working, at least that not what they're showing. In
order to use this, you have to use pay Visa or MasterCard. It's
dumb. So they're just demoing stuff. It's vaporware. As far as
I'm concerned at this point, well, it's going to be CBD shoes
and everything. Okay, well, I haven't seen it yet. So bricks,
but bricks is definitely a force to be reckoned with. They got
Saudi Arabia, they got Egypt, they got Somalia. They got
joining
John C Dvorak: up left and right.
Adam Curry: I got India
John C Dvorak: until somebody makes him a better offer.
Adam Curry: Trump, Trump will make him a better offer. I said
you don't want to use the US dollar, 3,000% tariffs. Oh, yes,
sir. I love the US dollar.
John C Dvorak: Well, yeah. Well, Trump will put an end to it,
yeah, yeah, when he's president. So I have a couple of clips
about Trump, mostly about CBS, actually, you know, the best,
some of the best analysis of what's going on with the
campaign is out of Sky News. Oh, they're very funny. You know,
Australia, yeah,
Adam Curry: they have funny reports on us. They never report
anything funny about their own idiocy. No, they can't do that
because that's against the Elmer Fudd, dude, it's against the
law. In Australia, you
John C Dvorak: can't, Yeah, same thing in Canada, you can't talk
about your own people. Did
Adam Curry: you hear that in in England? In the UK, if you say
to a Muslim, uh, God bless you, and the Muslim is offended you
are technically breaking the law, yeah. And there was some
other guy who was in the buffer zone of an abortion clinic, and
you're not allowed to protest or or say anything to people inside
the buffer zone, and so he decided to bow his head and
pray, and got arrested and convicted, yeah, for praying in
his head.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's
Adam Curry: out of control. Isn't that the definition of
thought crime?
John C Dvorak: They've been doing thought crime prosecutions
for years now, but meanwhile,
Adam Curry: they're going to give the ozempic to everyone
who's obese and out of work, because that'll get the
workforce back on their feet.
John C Dvorak: It's It's unbelievable. Yeah, I don't know
what's wrong with what happened? What happened? I.
Adam Curry: They've fallen. Bro has fallen. Britain has fallen.
They've been, they've been co opted, taken over. CO
John C Dvorak: opted. You know, that must be it. Yeah. So I got
these clips. These are from this on jot this guy, Josh hammers an
American editor at large at Newsweek, and he's got some
nasty things to say about about CBS, including clip two, which
is the one that will follow, that I just was taken aback by,
and I never heard about this. But let's listen to these.
They're complaining about CBS and why Trump didn't do it 60
minutes and and just come just they're just bitterly
complaining. They're over there in Australia about Sky News with
this guy, that
Unknown: that could be an absolute train wreck. Donald
Trump has already, I think, indicated he's going to be doing
Rogan but if she ends up doing it, wow, grab the popcorn. It's
going to be a fun one. But she also had a go at Donald Trump
for refusing to sit down and talk to 60 minutes
his staff won't let him do a 60 Minutes interview. Every
president for the last half century has done one. Anyone
who's running for president
now put to one side the fact that 60 minutes audience is
nowhere near what it used to be. I can think of two very good
reasons why Donald Trump should, out of principle, not speak to
60 minutes again. What are your thoughts? I'm interested to see
if your reasons are the same as mine. Rita,
here in the US, CBS News has recently exposed itself as maybe
the most blatantly corrupt. I'm sorry.
Adam Curry: This guy is a puker. John, this is great. Your
Unknown: thoughts. I'm interested to see if your
reasons are the same as mine.
Rita, here in the US, CBS News has recently exposed itself as
maybe the most blatantly corrupt of all the various corporate
media networks, and that that is that is saying a lot. What I
just said, because there was a lot there. There are a lot of
options to choose from CBS News. I mean, let's just run down the
list in quick succession. First, they hosted that vice
presidential debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz, where JD
Vance absolutely clobbered him. Walls not withstand the fact
that the two CBS moderators were fact checking JD Vance in real
time, notwithstanding the fact that they had given him their
exact word that they would not do that before the debate.
That's number one. Number two, we had a Maoist struggle session
in real time at CBS News when the morning anchor Tony Doka
pill started to ask very reasonable basic questions to
left wing charlatan ta nehisi Coates. He was on to promote his
deeply anti semitic book the message Tony Joker polls asking
very basic questions. Why didn't you talk about Hezbollah, the
Second Intifada? And apparently the the bigwigs, the C suite at
CBS News, was so upset that their anchor had the temerity,
had the chutzpah to ask basic questions that they had a
company wide struggle session the next day whereby Tony
dokapel, the anchor, actually broke down in tears. I'm so
sorry. Ta nehisi Coates, you Wow.
Adam Curry: This guy is Ben Shapiro.
John C Dvorak: He talks a little fast. It's true. He has
Adam Curry: a total with total Ben Shapiro cadence. He does
John C Dvorak: not should mention it, but, but anyway,
he's talking about some of the stuff behind the scenes in CBS.
And he drops this little gem, which is the second clip is very
short that I was unaware of this, but this has got this is
somewhat scandalous, it seems, to me. And then
Unknown: it came out in the aftermath of that that their
standards and practice division at CBS News actually, in a
closely related point, they instructed all of the anchors
and journalists the network to not refer to Jerusalem as being
in Israel,
Adam Curry: because it's Palestine, I guess. No,
John C Dvorak: it's not Palestine. It's not in palace.
No Palace, according to according
Adam Curry: to CBS, yeah, I guess. So, where else are they
going to put it?
John C Dvorak: I guess it has to be, yeah, that I think you're
right. But it's like, what, what? First of all, they bring
on this guy that he's bitching about, which is this, I saw
this, you know, Doka poll, who, who I've ridiculed on the show,
is a reasonable, you know, normal guys, kids are in, live
in Israel, but so he's got some questions. Asked that this, this
black guy who comes out with this hateful book, a Jew hating
book, and he asked him quite I don't even think they were that
poignant. And he gets read the riot act by CBS execs, and then
they pull this stunt, what's riots? What's going on at CBS?
Yeah, they're falling apart. I think the CIA bailed on him. I
think that's what happened. I've been convinced that the
connection has been cut. Yeah. So here we go at the final clip,
which wraps it up. And I by
Unknown: the way, I forgot to mention the last part. They
actually as we, as we, as we all now know they actually edited
Kamala Harris's own 60 Minutes interview. She gave this word
salad of all word salads. When it came to us as relations and
Prime Minister,
my that was one of my two reasons, Josh that because that
was just so deeply dishonest to deceptively edit her answer, and
the answer they put wasn't even part of the original answer. It
wasn't that they cut it short. They just switched things around
to make her look strong and decisive instead of absolutely
incoherent and weak, which was what her actual answer
indicated. And the second reason was Donald Trump sat down with
60 minutes last time around back in 2020 and they claimed that
Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation, that it
wasn't real, and they've never apologized for that, and I think
that is just another reason why Donald Trump should go tell them
to jump.
John C Dvorak: I'm gonna jump.
Adam Curry: I'm looking this story up. So the New York Post
had this story about CBS News telling staffers not to call
Jerusalem or not to say Jerusalem is in Israel. They got
it. The New York Post got it from Barry Weiss's outfit, the
first post.
John C Dvorak: So, well, CBS is never denied it. So I'm assuming
it's true. There are some corrections that I need to make
about this report, though, that I just played. First of all, I
went over the Leslie Stahl interview with Trump, and I was
going to clip it. I didn't, mainly because I to summarize
better, she never said that the laptop was disinformation. She
just, what she said was that when Trump said it was a
scandal, she says, No, it wasn't right. There's no, you're
kidding. It's not a scandal now. And she just downplayed the
whole thing, which implied that the laptop was disinformation.
But she never, actually, per se, never said that. But I think
that needs, could
Adam Curry: it be, could it be that there's some distancing
from the CIA since 51 intelligence execs or or former
intelligence people all said it was Russian disinformation?
John C Dvorak: I think there's some element there. And I think
there's one more little thing that I this is my kind of meta
look at things, which is that if you're associated with the CIA
to such an extremist CBS people, where that means people are
embedded there, and they'll share, they're still going to be
doing the messaging, whether the company doesn't want to do it or
not, because they're now owned by Sherry redstone. And I think
that she kept
Adam Curry: that in the deal. She sold paramount. She's still
running it, Yeah, boy, but she kept CBS when she sold off
everything else or paramount, went to she still owns
John C Dvorak: paramount, too. She hasn't sold well, she sold
off paramount to that, yeah, to the Ellison's kid. Ellison's
kid, yeah, I think she's, well, maybe I'm wrong about Sherry
being involved, but whatever the case. Uh, that's not important,
because what I'm thinking is there's still guys there that
are represented as it were. And I think that that edit that was
done of the Kamala thing, where they played the one clip of her
yakking away about nothing, and then
Adam Curry: they showed that CIA setup.
John C Dvorak: I think it was a setup. I think it was done on
purpose so they could get caught, to get burned, because
it was so obvious, they first they put it out there, and they
just let it sit, and they let the social media people take it
apart, and then they got burned. Oh, look what they did. They did
this edit. They're editing it. They're editing it. And I think
that was done on purpose just to hurt her campaign. She is under
attack. I'm no more. I see these, these elements that are
appearing is to make it look like they're they want Trump in.
You say so? I say so. They want Trump in, but they can't make it
obvious.
Adam Curry: What'll be interesting to see if the far
right in America doesn't spike the ball and goes, shoves it in
everybody's face.
John C Dvorak: Of course, they're gonna spike the ball.
Sad. I hope they don't. They can't nod. Everybody spikes the
ball.
Adam Curry: Everybody spikes the ball.
John C Dvorak: They do you do too, yeah?
Adam Curry: Well, okay, you're right. Everybody spikes the
ball, yeah, that's what
John C Dvorak: you do. But you got your touchdown, you spike
the ball. The number of people that don't spike the ball is a
minimal. Is so unusual, it like stands out because of it. I
Adam Curry: don't spike the ball. I just do my end zone
shuffle.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, you do a dance. Yes, I
Adam Curry: do well, let's stick in the region. And same report,
two different versions. This is NBC
Unknown: tonight, a drone fired
toward the Israeli Prime. Minister's residence, Benjamin
Netanyahu office says an unmanned aircraft sent from
Hezbollah in Lebanon targeted his home north of Tel Aviv. The
IDF said a drone struck a building nearby, causing no
injuries or significant damage. So
Adam Curry: that's the NBC report. Here's the TRT Turkish
radio television report, unmanned
Unknown: aerial vehicles are being used by Hezbollah to
target critical locations in Israel, marking a significant
escalation, a drone directly hit the home of Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu in Caesarea.
Adam Curry: So Did it hit a building nearby? Or did it hit
the home? Seems rather confusing.
John C Dvorak: Do we have from these reports that I don't think
I have one of these clips, but I can't tell. No, they don't
really let you know.
Adam Curry: Have you heard all those reports? About a year ago,
supposedly 20 foot drones were flying over Andrew's Air Base,
and they must have come from a ship in Chinese ship. You heard
this? No, oh, I got to get some reports on because they show
video and they show drones with flashing anti collision lights.
What kind of covert operation is that?
John C Dvorak: It doesn't sound right
Adam Curry: now, I'm not quite sure what's going on there.
This, I thought was rather interesting, though, we
Unknown: have managed to confirm that these two documents that
were leaked on telegram on Friday do appear to be
authentic, and they are highly classified documents that
suggest that the US has been essentially spying on Israel's
plans to retaliate against Iran. They're also they also have
markings suggesting that the only entities that should be
viewing these documents are the US and some of its closest
allies, the Five Eyes partnership. And so this is
obviously very concerning to us officials. And while we are not
going to quote from these documents or share them
directly. We can outline them broadly. One of them, for
example, which is sourced to the National Geospatial Intelligence
Agency, discusses Israel's movement of certain munitions in
order to prepare for a possible strike on Iran. Another
document, which is sourced to the National Security Agency
discusses the Israeli Air Forces preparations and exercises for a
strike, including information about the Israeli Air Force's
use of air to surface missiles. And so this is obviously going
to cause some consternation, to say the least, in Israel itself.
And of course, it comes in a very delicate moment between the
US and Israel. And so for now, what we're hearing from US
officials is that they're not going to confirm the
authenticity of these humans for now, when we reached out for
official comment, but we are told that one of the main
focuses of the investigation at this point is just determining
who had access to these documents to begin with.
Adam Curry: Yeah, this is so transparent to me. Of course, no
Israel's doing it that that strike on Iran. It wasn't our
bombers. No, this is Israel. Is Israel.
John C Dvorak: This is the very sketchy,
Adam Curry: denied deniability. Well, they attack, but it wasn't
us. I love some of the people, like, You're so wrong. Curry,
you shill. Israel runs America, not the other way around. Better
than that,
John C Dvorak: you're, you're a Zionist shill.
Adam Curry: Yeah, that's right. Oh, sir, Brian of London is so
bad that whole thing was bull crap is a pilot of London's the
best pile of bull crap. It's not true. Okay, yeah, all right.
John C Dvorak: And why is he Brian of London, when he is
lives in Israel, because he used
Adam Curry: to be in London, so what? Well, and then he moved to
Israel, and now he's still Sir Brian. No,
John C Dvorak: he's the Zionist shill.
Adam Curry: He always was a Zionist shield, just he used to
be in London as good it doesn't matter to me. Yeah,
Unknown: he's a good guy.
Adam Curry: So this, this is unsurprising, but yet troubling.
It went much faster than they thought it would. If we can move
out of the region, I'd like to go to Big Pharma,
Unknown: see what we got here. Yeah, listen, listen to this
today, a major shakeup at CVS Health CEO Karen Lynch suddenly
replaced at the nation's biggest pharmacy chain, health
care so personal to you and me that you can't lose sight of
that
human connection facing financial struggles Under her
leadership, CVS is on track to close 900 of its nearly 10,000
locations in its three year plan and cut about 3000 corporate
jobs. Industry wide, an estimated 7000 pharmacies have
already shuttered in the last five years. Walgreens, just this
week, announced 1200 Of its remaining stores could soon
close, and Rite Aid filed for bankruptcy last year.
Older demographics, they want to sit down with the pharmacist,
understand the medicine. Younger demographics, they don't know
interact with pharmacists. They want their medicine, and they
want to cheap and they want to hit their doorstep. What
does a pharmacy look like when it comes to getting your
medication in five years, you could
have potentially 25, 30% less pharmacies in the next two,
three years. There are today. The retail
closures are creating even more drugstore deserts that has
Amazon pharmacy taking flight testing prescription drone
delivery in Texas with plans to open pharmacies in 20 more
cities next year, changes in consumer habits, prescribing a
new dose of reality.
Adam Curry: So this went really fast. I mean, we really
accelerated telemedicine during covid. It seems like what a
setup this was to accelerate that, then we got everybody
doing medicine by mail, with Amazon now leading the charge.
John C Dvorak: And of course, yeah, Amazon gets blamed for
this. But this started long before Amazon, because I have
been on Medicare for a while and they and every time you get your
you have to buy Plan B, or whatever it is, from one of
these characters, not the Medicare plus, which is a total
Jip, but the, but just the drug, the drug payment system, you get
a note, hey, you know, we can mail you these drugs. This is
from like, Humana. Humana, oh, we can mail you the drugs. I
don't know why you're buying them at a pharmacy. They're the
ones, the same guys that are paying for the pharmacy bills
that you're paying just a five bucks for, or whatever, for a
drug that costs way too much because they're overcharging.
They're they're the ones that set up shoppers. We'll mail them
to you and you say, you or you save five bucks. It's, it's a.
This is a. This is all the insurance companies you
Adam Curry: know, Plan B is, uh, is something different than you
think. Well, whatever
John C Dvorak: it is, there's a, there's a drug plan. Oh, can I
ask the point is? The point is, is that these, these, these
middlemen, that not the middlemen who buy and sell drugs
to the pharmacies, but the these insurance companies have horned
in on this whole thing, yeah, and they're the ones behind it,
and Amazon just saw it as an opportunity to the advantage of
it, but they're not being if it wasn't for these other guys, it
wouldn't have probably never happened. Well,
Adam Curry: it's great because, you know, the young kids that
just want their Adderall through the mail, just send me my five
hands. Man, that's what it's about. It's just drug dealing.
It's just drug dealing through the US Postal Service. I want to
ask you a question. So Tina decided that she wanted to,
she's 62 she said, You know, I'm going to take early retirement.
And so she, you know, goes the whole rigamarole with the Social
Security office. And then she gets a mail, a letter in the
mail. It's like, okay, you're all set up starting February.
And of course, you get less. You know, you don't get your full.
John C Dvorak: You get a person. You get a you get a lowered
percentage, which she wants to
Adam Curry: immediately invest in Bitcoin, which I think is
great. But from what I understand, if you make more
than $35,000 a year married or 32,000 single, then they'll take
50% they'll tax your social security by 50%
John C Dvorak: they tax it, yeah, well, no, it's worse than
that. What they do,
Adam Curry: what is this crap?
John C Dvorak: What they do is they take they lower your
benefits. I wouldn't, by the way, what she wants to do. I
personally, I wouldn't do it, but okay, if she wants to do it.
Mimi also took early, but she took early at like 65 or so, and
that was that early when I it's just a long story, but I they do
the math for you and say, well, here's how much you get. Here's
the total payouts going to be if you wait, and the talk total
payout so high that is, I don't understand why people do it
early, but here's what they do. First, they they have a set
amount that you're going to get a month. And then when the if
you're making money, like you are doing, and I'm doing and
she's part of that, because it's part, you know, it's part of
your income, they say, well, that's interesting. And they
have a sliding scale to say, instead of giving you the 3000 a
month or whatever you're going to get because you're making
money, we're going to drop that to 2000 and then, oh, and by the
way, that 2000 that you're going to get is going to be taxed, no.
Adam Curry: So this is how, this is why they have such a great
deal going with Walmart, you get all these old people who want to
supplement their income, and so they make sure that these old
people who are working at Walmart don't make more than
$32,000 a year, so it doesn't impact their social security
payments.
John C Dvorak: Well, that's an I don't know if the scheme goes
that
Adam Curry: deep. Maybe, well, from more. Walmart's perspective
at mind,
John C Dvorak: I'm sure maybe Walmart's figured it out as
possible. But the Yeah, but isn't
Adam Curry: that money that we gave them already? I mean,
hasn't that been How can this be? Right? Is that what Trump
Social
John C Dvorak: Security is separate from income tax, and
you pay into a fund and you're supposed to get that money back.
It's like, it's like forced saving. So you get your money
back, but you don't, but you don't. No, yeah,
Adam Curry: okay, is this what Trump is saying? He there'll be
no tax on Social Security. Yes.
John C Dvorak: And everybody who's got any sense, we'll vote
get Social Security, which is everybody over, like, Tina's
age, I guess, are crazy not to vote for Trump, just to save
that, it's a lot of money, yeah,
Adam Curry: wow. But he can't. He that has to go through
Congress. He can't. Yeah, of
John C Dvorak: course it does. Okay, wow. But you know, it's
one of those votes. If you vote against it, you expect to get
reelected. And so one of those tricky little guys, you can get
through, you can get it through Congress. Wow.
Unknown: All right, well, that blows,
Adam Curry: you know, if you don't mind, blow it blows it's
we're overtaxed,
John C Dvorak: yeah, well, that's been going on for a
while. I have a climate change clip as a Boeing clip. All
right, let's
Adam Curry: do we definitely need to do the Boeing clip,
because I think there are they close to ending this. Yeah, no,
John C Dvorak: that's done. Done deal. After
Unknown: several rounds of failed talks and an ongoing
strike, Boeing and its largest union reached a tentative
contract agreement that includes raises of 35% over four years.
That's a big jump from over the previous contract offer and
close to the amount the union initially asked for workers vote
on the tentative contract next week, the strike was a big hit
to Boeing's bottom line, crippling most airplane
production at Boeing and leading to cost cutting measures and
layoffs and a plan to raise money by selling new stock or
debt. The deal also includes a bonus of $7,000 if workers
ratified the deal, hmm,
John C Dvorak: so I think that'll that'll close the deal.
Adam Curry: Why be done? Interestingly enough, the the
postal letter carriers union, they got screwed. They got a so
their tentative agreement is for 1.3% increase, and it's my
understanding they cannot strike. Interesting, yeah, we
have a lot of mail carriers, and they are not happy, and
John C Dvorak: they shouldn't be no before we play the climate
change clip. I do have this clip to get out of the way, because I
wonder about its authenticity. I look at it and look at it. I
know how you can do certain tricks, but it looks real to me.
Adam Curry: I'm going to say, No,
John C Dvorak: you're going to say it's fake. Yeah, you talk
about the camel clip. Yes,
Adam Curry: that's what I'm talking about, but we'll listen
to it. I have not. I've only watched it. Listening to it is
always better. It's much better for deconstructing. So I guess
the where is it?
John C Dvorak: Camel, the drunk, never
Unknown: let anyone take your joy from you. I call myself a
joyful warrior, right? Never let anyone take your joy from you.
Do you do what you gotta do? And isn't that a wonderful way to
live, to know you have purpose?
Adam Curry: Yeah, I think that's doctored. I think if anything,
she's stoned.
John C Dvorak: I haven't I cannot make a determination on
this. I've tried. I've watched it a number of times. I watch
her and I watch the clip. It's blurry, which bothers me, yeah,
Adam Curry: and they put music under it, which is annoying,
yeah, but there are versions without the music, all right? We
need to find the original pop two
John C Dvorak: with trolls, right? This was done in some
setting that we don't have access to, or it hasn't been, I
haven't seen a version of it showing the full context,
because if she's drunk there, she's drunk throughout, which is
so. So I would probably lean toward what you're thinking. But
I still, I like the clip. I think hilarious. Exactly. She
sounds fun. We know she drinks. It's fun,
Adam Curry: it's fun, it's always fun. Poor woman. What's
she gonna do after she loses? That's gonna be I mean,
John C Dvorak: she's so arrogant, she'll just just take
a consulting gig somewhere and make more money. Oh,
Adam Curry: it'll be interesting to see where. Yeah, so
John C Dvorak: this guy, Ian Plimer, plimmer. Plimer, I just
thought this is an out of the blue clip that showed up. Uh,
these are the classics that we did, the climate special and
the. If people can look back on it, I did it some, I don't know,
a few years ago, and it has mostly clips like this,
questioning all climate change arguments. And I thought this
was a decent one to play. We have
Unknown: been cooling down for the last 4000 years. So people
say, Oh, the planet's warming. Well, it's all about when you
start the measurements, if we look at the last 38 years, there
has been no change in temperature. If we look in the
last 150 years, we've had three warming periods and three
cooling periods where the total warmth of about point six
degrees Celsius. Now I wonder why it warms. I mean 1850 what
happened then? Oh yes, that was the end of the Little Ice Age.
Do you think it's going to warm or cool after a little ice age?
Of course it's going to warm. So if you start taking measurements
from 1850 in the industrial revolution, we have been
warming. If you take measurements from the medieval
warming. We've been cooling. We've cooled about five degrees
since then, if you take measurements from the Roman
warming, we've cooled about five degrees. So as soon as someone
tells you, oh, it's warming, the reply you give is, since when
Adam Curry: I think cop 16 is underway or coming up soon in
Colombia,
John C Dvorak: so they should the fly too.
Adam Curry: Yeah, baby. Do they have good hotels in Colombia
because we got the big conference there, so
John C Dvorak: I believe so. Oh, lovely.
Unknown: Due to climate change, I'm
gonna show my food
by donating to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could
do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun.
Adam Curry: Yeah, baby. It's time for a little thank you.

John C Dvorak: fabulous, fabulous podcast. Thanks, boys.
Oh, there's,
Adam Curry: I mean, yes, you're done. Where are you getting
these?
John C Dvorak: I got that one from a really obscures podcast
you
Adam Curry: need to do. Who are these podcasts again? You do
that segment. You know, you're always it's always good. I'm
just on a roll. Yes, you are. All right, everybody, it's time
now for everybody's favorite moment of the show, John's Tip
of the Day. And
Unknown: sometimes I don't,
John C Dvorak: I have, I have, actually two tips again, one
general tip, but one tip for a very select portion of the
audience. If you get have Google TV, they Google YouTube TV or
Google I mean, sorry, YouTube TV, I don't know. I always say
that and you, if you type in Google TV, get some other thing.
Yeah, it's different. It's no good.
Adam Curry: No, it sucks.
John C Dvorak: There used to be a thing for NFL viewers, is
people like watching football. There's a thing called the Red
Zone, which is a terrific but you have to pay for it as
terrific summary site. You don't watch any football games. Just
watch this in real time. It tells you what's going on. But
if you go to turn to the NFL networks, they have this thing
is like football today live, they have the during the set,
during the football games on Sunday. Go to this, it's a
clone. It's a clone. It's a cheap clone of of the red zone.
And it's just, it's actually maybe better, because there's
more than one guy doing it. I'm just a tip for you football
viewers. Now there was Android kit.
Adam Curry: Is it cheaper? Or was free? It's free?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's free. If you got YouTube TV, you get
the NFL Network free, and you just, you got it, you can watch
this instead, and it doesn't cost you anything. So anyway,
it's just kind of a good ball, guys. Good tip. Good tip. It is
a good tip. So I'm gonna talk about chia seeds.
Adam Curry: I have a chia pet,
John C Dvorak: yeah, well, chia seeds, uh, which they sell them
now, because they're a nutritional sub, kind of a thing
you can add to your food, but they're you, for people who
don't know if you add them to, if you add like, couple
tablespoons of these seeds, which are pretty tasteless, but
you add them to, like a smoothie or a milkshake or anything,
it'll thicken it up like crazy. And it's like a it's like an
natural thickener, except the fact that these chia seeds, your
heart is a rock. Don't
Adam Curry: they get stuck in your teeth? Yeah? No,
John C Dvorak: no. This is the this what the tip is, ah. You
got to put it through the blender, and then you got to
wait five minutes. So this chia seeds kind of soak in the in the
smoothie or the juice, so they soften up. And then when you hit
the blender again, it turns into a thick goo, which is dynamite,
and it's the seeds are gone. They don't stick in your teeth.
This is my, my culinary Tip of the Day. Wow.
Adam Curry: Sorry, soon, coming from Gateway. Publishing, too
many gate view, too many seeds.com. All right, everybody,
tip of the day. Wow. John dynamite,
John C Dvorak: yeah, okay. Well, you know, people will appreciate
it. Once they do it, they will. It's like that Neva and her
leash.
Adam Curry: Yes, no. People love the tips. Tip of the day.net.
No. Agendafund.com, find out all about the tips. People even
going on X that was a great tip. End of show mixes. By request.
