1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:02,820
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

2
00:00:03,220 --> 00:00:04,860
Adam Currie, John C.

3
00:00:05,020 --> 00:00:05,240
DeVora.

4
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,280
It's Monday, June 22nd, 2025.

5
00:00:07,660 --> 00:00:09,500
It's your award-winning give-on-Asian-media

6
00:00:09,500 --> 00:00:11,820
assassination episode 1775.

7
00:00:12,380 --> 00:00:13,640
This is no agenda.

8
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:16,640
Stop the hammering!

9
00:00:16,780 --> 00:00:18,880
We're broadcasting live from the heart of the

10
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,040
Texas snow country here in FEMA region number

11
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:22,620
six in the morning, everybody.

12
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:23,860
I'm Adam Currie.

13
00:00:24,020 --> 00:00:25,940
And from northern Silicon Valley, where you've heard

14
00:00:25,940 --> 00:00:28,560
of Bunker Busters, we're the Bunker Busters.

15
00:00:28,820 --> 00:00:29,380
I'm John C.

16
00:00:29,500 --> 00:00:29,900
DeVorak.

17
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,160
It's crackpot and buzzkill in the morning.

18
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:34,860
I see what you did there.

19
00:00:35,060 --> 00:00:35,500
I see.

20
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,480
Well, we learned a couple of new terms.

21
00:00:39,340 --> 00:00:42,080
These military guys, they're always funny with their

22
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:42,680
acronyms.

23
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:43,940
We've got the MOP.

24
00:00:44,660 --> 00:00:45,540
That was a new one.

25
00:00:45,660 --> 00:00:47,140
I didn't, let me play this to get

26
00:00:47,140 --> 00:00:47,540
us started.

27
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,520
One issue about a possible attack is the

28
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,160
30,000 pound bomb that is part of

29
00:00:52,160 --> 00:00:52,840
the U.S. arsenal.

30
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,400
It is known as the Bunker Buster.

31
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,940
Although it has been tested, it's never been

32
00:00:56,940 --> 00:00:57,580
used in war.

33
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,620
ABC's Martha Raddatz explains.

34
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:00,160
Come on, Martha.

35
00:01:00,300 --> 00:01:03,400
This bomb, the massive ordnance penetrator or MOP,

36
00:01:03,540 --> 00:01:05,080
can only be- I think I saw

37
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,100
one of those in a shop in Amsterdam,

38
00:01:07,380 --> 00:01:07,720
actually.

39
00:01:09,620 --> 00:01:11,900
I've seen these MOPs in these places.

40
00:01:11,940 --> 00:01:12,740
Yeah, you know what I mean?

41
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:13,760
Place stinks.

42
00:01:14,140 --> 00:01:16,680
The 30,000 pound bomb can penetrate deep

43
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,620
into rock and has been tested successfully numerous

44
00:01:19,620 --> 00:01:22,560
times but has never been used before on

45
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:23,300
the battlefield.

46
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:25,940
The U.S. has used the smaller MOAB,

47
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,180
the 22,000 pound bomb with success blowing

48
00:01:29,180 --> 00:01:30,440
up caves in Afghanistan.

49
00:01:30,860 --> 00:01:33,260
But if the president decides the U.S.

50
00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:36,340
will hit the Fordow nuclear facility, it will

51
00:01:36,340 --> 00:01:37,760
be the first time it's used.

52
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,540
So there are some concerns about how effective

53
00:01:40,540 --> 00:01:42,900
it would be in an actual strike since

54
00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:45,100
much is not known about Fordow but there

55
00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:47,700
would likely be several of these bombs launched

56
00:01:47,700 --> 00:01:49,100
because of the uncertainty.

57
00:01:49,420 --> 00:01:50,740
And of course, the U.S. still wants

58
00:01:50,740 --> 00:01:53,180
to get all its assets into the region.

59
00:01:53,380 --> 00:01:54,840
Our thanks to Martha Raddatz for that.

60
00:01:55,260 --> 00:01:56,660
A key concern about the bomb is the

61
00:01:56,660 --> 00:01:58,680
potential release of radioactive material.

62
00:01:59,140 --> 00:02:01,720
The International Atomic Energy Agency says the hazard

63
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,900
will be limited to the areas that are

64
00:02:03,900 --> 00:02:05,840
directly around the nuclear sites.

65
00:02:06,860 --> 00:02:09,720
Yes, so this has been the topic.

66
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,360
So they didn't take any chances on whether

67
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,080
this thing worked.

68
00:02:12,180 --> 00:02:13,800
They used 14 of them.

69
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,540
Yeah, just in case, which as many-

70
00:02:15,540 --> 00:02:17,220
Just in case, well, you know.

71
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,320
Yeah, which as many people noticed sounded very

72
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:20,820
familiar.

73
00:02:20,820 --> 00:02:23,140
Some preconditioning was done.

74
00:02:23,340 --> 00:02:26,180
Your target is an impact point less than

75
00:02:26,180 --> 00:02:27,200
three meters wide.

76
00:02:28,900 --> 00:02:30,460
The two-seat aircraft will paint the target

77
00:02:30,460 --> 00:02:31,520
with a laser bullseye.

78
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,900
The first pair will breach the reactor by

79
00:02:34,900 --> 00:02:37,060
dropping a laser-guided bomb on an exposed

80
00:02:37,060 --> 00:02:38,040
ventilation hatch.

81
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,560
This will create an opening for the second

82
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:40,860
pair.

83
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:42,920
That's miracle number one.

84
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,180
The second team will deliver the kill shot

85
00:02:49,940 --> 00:02:51,100
and destroy the target.

86
00:02:52,900 --> 00:02:54,060
That's miracle number two.

87
00:02:54,940 --> 00:02:57,300
Of course, that is from the latest Top

88
00:02:57,300 --> 00:02:57,960
Gun series.

89
00:02:58,060 --> 00:03:00,140
And it kind of made me think, you

90
00:03:00,140 --> 00:03:02,060
know, this mop thing may not- Who

91
00:03:02,060 --> 00:03:02,900
knows what they used?

92
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:03,500
We weren't there.

93
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:04,240
We didn't see it.

94
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:05,040
There's no video.

95
00:03:05,860 --> 00:03:08,040
Maybe this was all predictive programming to think

96
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:09,560
- make us think that they have one

97
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:09,820
of these.

98
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:10,600
I don't even know.

99
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:11,900
I don't know what it was.

100
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,420
Maybe it was a mini-nuke for all

101
00:03:13,420 --> 00:03:13,740
I know.

102
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,700
You know, this sounded all kind of movie

103
00:03:17,700 --> 00:03:18,080
-esque.

104
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:19,920
The way this went down.

105
00:03:21,860 --> 00:03:23,420
Well, it was pretty interesting.

106
00:03:24,700 --> 00:03:25,740
I will say that.

107
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,680
Yes, and- I have to put-

108
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,120
There's a serious eclipse from last night.

109
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,020
Can I just say- She came back

110
00:03:32,020 --> 00:03:35,000
on- Before you start, I just want

111
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:35,640
people to know.

112
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,480
We are going to treat this like everything

113
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:39,920
else.

114
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,420
Which will include some humor.

115
00:03:43,460 --> 00:03:45,320
Because if we don't have a war, it's

116
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:45,720
all great.

117
00:03:45,780 --> 00:03:47,320
If we do, we're not all gone.

118
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,600
That's also good.

119
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,620
Coincidentally- I'm not expecting that.

120
00:03:52,780 --> 00:03:53,440
No, neither am I.

121
00:03:53,740 --> 00:03:57,980
Coincidentally, this morning, I got my own massive

122
00:03:57,980 --> 00:03:59,180
ordinance attack.

123
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,640
Do you remember- Oh, well, maybe we

124
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,860
should stop my idea here and listen to

125
00:04:03,860 --> 00:04:04,080
this.

126
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,660
Because it already sounds more interesting than any

127
00:04:06,660 --> 00:04:07,040
clip.

128
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,020
I don't know about that.

129
00:04:11,100 --> 00:04:14,260
Somebody unleashed a subscribe bot on me again.

130
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:16,040
Oh, really?

131
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,620
Now, you remember this happened previously?

132
00:04:18,820 --> 00:04:19,680
Oh, yeah, this happened.

133
00:04:19,820 --> 00:04:21,320
This was a nightmare for you.

134
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:22,020
A nightmare.

135
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,840
Yeah, so we went to church.

136
00:04:23,900 --> 00:04:24,520
I came back.

137
00:04:24,620 --> 00:04:27,520
There were over 500- Thanks for subscribing

138
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:28,280
emails.

139
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:30,160
Thank you very much.

140
00:04:30,220 --> 00:04:30,940
Oh, this is great.

141
00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:32,340
Hey, reset your password.

142
00:04:32,460 --> 00:04:33,680
Hey, confirm your email.

143
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,100
Now, these things, they used to cost money.

144
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,020
They may be easier to do now with

145
00:04:39,020 --> 00:04:42,980
some large language model systems that can access

146
00:04:42,980 --> 00:04:43,600
SMTP.

147
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,100
That's interesting, yes.

148
00:04:45,100 --> 00:04:46,280
May be easier to do.

149
00:04:47,460 --> 00:04:49,520
And luckily, we have Void Zero.

150
00:04:50,940 --> 00:04:53,280
And that's when I switched my email server

151
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:54,220
to his care.

152
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,740
Because I'm like, bro, I can't handle this.

153
00:04:56,940 --> 00:04:58,360
This is blowing my system up.

154
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,280
This is the problem with the- Yes.

155
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,440
Yeah, I mean- I find this deplorable

156
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:03,680
that you can't do your own email.

157
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:04,580
You need a pro.

158
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:07,560
Well, okay.

159
00:05:09,300 --> 00:05:12,500
Now, luckily, I had set up a couple

160
00:05:12,500 --> 00:05:15,280
of filters back in the day when this

161
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:15,720
happened.

162
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:20,100
Because essentially, I can't subscribe to any more

163
00:05:20,100 --> 00:05:21,780
newsletters with my email address.

164
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:27,380
Because still for years, I'm still getting newsletters

165
00:05:27,380 --> 00:05:29,000
that I can't unsubscribe from.

166
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,880
Because half of these things don't work.

167
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,380
And the unsubscribe doesn't work.

168
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:33,800
And they don't want to unsubscribe you.

169
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,100
So I literally can't subscribe to a newsletter

170
00:05:38,100 --> 00:05:39,980
with my own email address.

171
00:05:39,980 --> 00:05:42,260
So it did take a lot of those

172
00:05:42,260 --> 00:05:44,300
and shuttle them off and delete them.

173
00:05:44,380 --> 00:05:46,400
But as I was thinking about it, do

174
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,320
you remember the time frame when this last

175
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:48,740
happened?

176
00:05:49,900 --> 00:05:50,660
No, I don't.

177
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,300
When someone was so mad at me because

178
00:05:53,300 --> 00:05:54,600
I was so wrong.

179
00:05:55,060 --> 00:05:55,900
I don't know.

180
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:56,500
I know.

181
00:05:57,300 --> 00:05:58,840
But this could be any- Oh, it

182
00:05:58,840 --> 00:05:59,180
was COVID?

183
00:05:59,480 --> 00:05:59,760
COVID.

184
00:06:00,540 --> 00:06:02,620
When we were saying COVID was- I

185
00:06:02,620 --> 00:06:03,500
thought it was before that.

186
00:06:03,740 --> 00:06:05,580
No, no, because I remember exactly where we

187
00:06:05,580 --> 00:06:05,740
were.

188
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,360
We were in the house in Austin, new

189
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:07,660
house.

190
00:06:08,500 --> 00:06:09,480
And we had just moved there.

191
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,660
So this was right around COVID time.

192
00:06:12,820 --> 00:06:13,300
And it was cold.

193
00:06:13,420 --> 00:06:14,300
I remember the whole thing.

194
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,120
So it was in 2019, 2020?

195
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:18,060
Yeah, 2020.

196
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,680
And so- I thought you were in

197
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,500
this place that you're in now longer than

198
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:24,200
from 2020.

199
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:24,900
No, no.

200
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,440
I'm getting time compression problems here.

201
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:28,140
Oh, I have it too.

202
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:28,420
Don't worry.

203
00:06:28,420 --> 00:06:30,620
When you get old, you can't remember why

204
00:06:30,620 --> 00:06:31,020
what?

205
00:06:31,660 --> 00:06:32,440
It's okay.

206
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,180
Time compression is correct.

207
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,440
So that means that, you know, people are

208
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:39,380
getting pissed off at us.

209
00:06:39,980 --> 00:06:41,940
And there are people who are sad.

210
00:06:42,860 --> 00:06:44,140
There are people sad.

211
00:06:44,740 --> 00:06:45,400
Sad about what?

212
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,240
Well, because we also have started to deconstruct

213
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,040
podcasts.

214
00:06:50,220 --> 00:06:52,520
Oh, that's so the poor- Hey, the

215
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,300
podcasters should be considered big game.

216
00:06:56,500 --> 00:06:58,260
That podcasting is the thing.

217
00:06:59,620 --> 00:07:01,140
I've gotten more notes.

218
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:02,560
All the kids are doing it, yes.

219
00:07:03,460 --> 00:07:04,340
Everybody's doing it.

220
00:07:05,060 --> 00:07:07,320
I've had notes telling us, why don't you

221
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,000
guys go after the podcasters?

222
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,100
You're always deconstructing shows and media that nobody

223
00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:13,940
listens to.

224
00:07:14,180 --> 00:07:14,320
Exactly.

225
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:19,040
So what happens is when we deconstruct, you

226
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,120
know, like Tucker Carlson or Scott Horton or

227
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,040
any podcast- Dave Smith, your favorite.

228
00:07:25,380 --> 00:07:28,140
We haven't actually deconstructed Dave Smith, but we

229
00:07:28,140 --> 00:07:28,440
will.

230
00:07:28,540 --> 00:07:29,640
We'll get to it eventually.

231
00:07:30,340 --> 00:07:32,360
But the point is- Banyan.

232
00:07:32,460 --> 00:07:34,640
People become- Oh yeah, I'm doing that

233
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:34,900
today.

234
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,940
People become- They feel that- Why

235
00:07:38,940 --> 00:07:41,500
are you shitting on other podcasters, man?

236
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,120
Aren't you guys all on the same team?

237
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:43,920
It's not a club.

238
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,220
Well, yes, because they feel, and I understand

239
00:07:47,220 --> 00:07:48,560
- It's not a fraternity.

240
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,240
It's they feel an affinity and they say,

241
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,300
well, you guys all agreed on this and

242
00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:53,980
all agreed on that.

243
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,560
I say, well, we don't agree on this.

244
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:57,640
But then- Actually, you and I don't

245
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:58,920
agree on a lot of stuff.

246
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,080
You know, I heard someone say this morning,

247
00:08:01,380 --> 00:08:04,260
when there's two people who agree all the

248
00:08:04,260 --> 00:08:05,860
time, one of them is unnecessary.

249
00:08:08,730 --> 00:08:10,890
Welcome to PBS NewsHour.

250
00:08:13,770 --> 00:08:15,170
Yeah, I love that.

251
00:08:15,250 --> 00:08:16,650
I'm like, wow, that's something.

252
00:08:16,730 --> 00:08:17,970
That's a good way of putting it.

253
00:08:18,250 --> 00:08:20,210
Of course we don't agree on everything, nor

254
00:08:20,210 --> 00:08:20,590
should we.

255
00:08:20,650 --> 00:08:22,490
For that very reason, if two people agree

256
00:08:22,490 --> 00:08:24,030
all the time, one of them is unnecessary.

257
00:08:25,590 --> 00:08:28,090
So it's not that we hate these guys

258
00:08:28,090 --> 00:08:28,850
or whatever.

259
00:08:29,010 --> 00:08:30,210
We think we're better than them.

260
00:08:30,290 --> 00:08:32,110
No, we're deconstructing and we have- We

261
00:08:32,110 --> 00:08:33,049
do think we're better than many of them.

262
00:08:33,049 --> 00:08:33,990
Well, of course we are.

263
00:08:34,030 --> 00:08:36,929
But we have a different opinion about certain

264
00:08:36,929 --> 00:08:37,350
things.

265
00:08:37,929 --> 00:08:40,510
And, you know, we've gone through the, well,

266
00:08:40,750 --> 00:08:43,510
you know, you're just shills like everybody else.

267
00:08:43,770 --> 00:08:52,210
So anyway, so we're going to continue that

268
00:08:52,210 --> 00:08:54,790
because that is- You're right.

269
00:08:55,330 --> 00:08:56,230
Podcasting's a thing.

270
00:08:57,470 --> 00:08:58,910
So we- It's the thing.

271
00:08:58,910 --> 00:09:00,230
It's the thing, yes.

272
00:09:00,370 --> 00:09:01,710
They all say it's the thing.

273
00:09:01,730 --> 00:09:02,430
It's the thing.

274
00:09:02,750 --> 00:09:03,830
So it's important for us to do that.

275
00:09:03,830 --> 00:09:05,490
Mainstream media is now saying it.

276
00:09:05,610 --> 00:09:07,250
Can I do one right now?

277
00:09:08,230 --> 00:09:09,090
Before you start?

278
00:09:09,390 --> 00:09:10,750
You're going to do a podcast right away?

279
00:09:10,850 --> 00:09:12,170
Podcast deconstruction, yeah.

280
00:09:12,850 --> 00:09:13,830
Can you handle it?

281
00:09:13,870 --> 00:09:14,750
Can you handle this one?

282
00:09:14,990 --> 00:09:16,950
This is a- Yeah, if you let

283
00:09:16,950 --> 00:09:17,990
me get back to my girl.

284
00:09:18,230 --> 00:09:18,610
No, of course.

285
00:09:18,930 --> 00:09:19,610
Of course, of course.

286
00:09:19,950 --> 00:09:21,790
This is Rachel Blevins.

287
00:09:23,010 --> 00:09:23,450
Okay.

288
00:09:24,930 --> 00:09:26,390
Already this is good.

289
00:09:26,750 --> 00:09:28,950
With the name Rachel Blevins.

290
00:09:29,070 --> 00:09:29,490
It gets better.

291
00:09:29,570 --> 00:09:31,290
It sounds like some creation of Woody Allen.

292
00:09:33,870 --> 00:09:35,170
Wow, that's a good one.

293
00:09:35,170 --> 00:09:40,130
So Rachel Blevins has on her podcast Sarah

294
00:09:40,130 --> 00:09:40,710
Bills.

295
00:09:40,810 --> 00:09:41,530
B-I-L-L-S.

296
00:09:41,610 --> 00:09:42,270
Sarah Bills.

297
00:09:42,870 --> 00:09:45,130
And she is the co-founder of DD

298
00:09:45,130 --> 00:09:46,610
Geopolitics.

299
00:09:47,290 --> 00:09:50,070
And DD Geopolitics, they really- They were

300
00:09:50,070 --> 00:09:51,490
born out of necessity, you see.

301
00:09:51,950 --> 00:09:55,190
Because no one was looking at geopolitics properly.

302
00:09:55,850 --> 00:10:00,890
So these two girls, young women, attractive young

303
00:10:00,890 --> 00:10:02,650
women, and they're doing the podcast.

304
00:10:02,650 --> 00:10:05,390
And they also have a video component.

305
00:10:05,470 --> 00:10:07,010
Which is good because I think that, you

306
00:10:07,010 --> 00:10:08,970
know, people want to look at them.

307
00:10:09,910 --> 00:10:12,450
I can see the benefit there, unlike us.

308
00:10:14,370 --> 00:10:19,870
And so Sarah Bills will introduce the topic

309
00:10:19,870 --> 00:10:20,210
here.

310
00:10:20,590 --> 00:10:22,570
And it is about, obviously, about Iran.

311
00:10:23,030 --> 00:10:28,130
And about the nuclear bombs.

312
00:10:28,190 --> 00:10:30,090
Which I think you and I agree is

313
00:10:30,090 --> 00:10:31,070
horse crap.

314
00:10:32,650 --> 00:10:35,010
But then she goes, she says something.

315
00:10:35,130 --> 00:10:35,910
I'm like, wow.

316
00:10:36,310 --> 00:10:38,450
Not only are you new in the podcasting,

317
00:10:38,510 --> 00:10:41,070
but you're also trying to replace somebody who's

318
00:10:41,070 --> 00:10:42,570
been around for quite a while.

319
00:10:42,690 --> 00:10:44,370
And this was earth moving.

320
00:10:44,670 --> 00:10:46,910
I actually want to go back one week

321
00:10:46,910 --> 00:10:50,230
ago when you had Israel launch this Operation

322
00:10:50,230 --> 00:10:53,630
Rising Lion, as they decided to name it.

323
00:10:53,670 --> 00:10:57,330
Which included the bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities

324
00:10:57,330 --> 00:11:01,770
and assassinations targeting Iranian military commanders and nuclear

325
00:11:01,770 --> 00:11:02,370
scientists.

326
00:11:02,910 --> 00:11:05,010
Because you actually have a really interesting report

327
00:11:05,010 --> 00:11:05,430
out.

328
00:11:05,550 --> 00:11:07,270
And I'll make sure that it's linked below.

329
00:11:07,510 --> 00:11:10,370
In which you dive into how good old

330
00:11:10,370 --> 00:11:15,190
Palantir and their mosaic AI platform have been

331
00:11:15,190 --> 00:11:19,070
used by the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency

332
00:11:19,070 --> 00:11:22,630
over the last decade to map out data

333
00:11:22,630 --> 00:11:23,830
points in Iran.

334
00:11:23,990 --> 00:11:25,950
And how it may have been used to

335
00:11:25,950 --> 00:11:28,530
signal this warning that Iran was closer than

336
00:11:28,530 --> 00:11:31,330
ever to creating a nuclear weapon.

337
00:11:31,770 --> 00:11:33,410
Can you start by kind of taking us

338
00:11:33,410 --> 00:11:37,090
through your findings and really what your reaction

339
00:11:37,090 --> 00:11:39,930
was to this information, especially given everything.

340
00:11:39,930 --> 00:11:40,830
Oh, just stop.

341
00:11:40,970 --> 00:11:41,870
Let her talk.

342
00:11:43,030 --> 00:11:46,710
This is the classic podcaster's dilemma.

343
00:11:47,310 --> 00:11:48,570
Just get to the question.

344
00:11:48,870 --> 00:11:49,670
You don't need to.

345
00:11:50,150 --> 00:11:54,050
What your reaction was to this information, especially

346
00:11:54,050 --> 00:11:56,450
given everything that we're watching right now.

347
00:11:56,450 --> 00:11:59,010
Well, everybody put your tinfoil hats on.

348
00:11:59,190 --> 00:12:01,590
I am, that's what they're painting me as,

349
00:12:01,650 --> 00:12:01,770
right?

350
00:12:01,830 --> 00:12:02,710
The crazy person.

351
00:12:02,770 --> 00:12:04,290
I'm becoming the new Whitney Webb.

352
00:12:05,790 --> 00:12:07,830
She's the new Whitney Webb, John.

353
00:12:09,170 --> 00:12:10,370
Everybody's calling her that.

354
00:12:10,650 --> 00:12:12,630
Everybody's calling her the new Whitney Webb.

355
00:12:12,730 --> 00:12:14,890
Get your tinfoil hats on because she is

356
00:12:14,890 --> 00:12:15,230
here.

357
00:12:15,470 --> 00:12:18,030
Was to this information, especially given everything that

358
00:12:18,030 --> 00:12:19,350
we're watching right now.

359
00:12:19,470 --> 00:12:21,910
Well, everybody put your tinfoil hats on.

360
00:12:22,210 --> 00:12:24,490
I am, that's what they're painting me as,

361
00:12:24,610 --> 00:12:24,710
right?

362
00:12:24,710 --> 00:12:25,570
The crazy person.

363
00:12:25,730 --> 00:12:27,190
I'm becoming the new Whitney Webb.

364
00:12:27,630 --> 00:12:30,750
Who got painted as the conspiracy theorist.

365
00:12:31,050 --> 00:12:32,590
I'm kind of obsessed with Palantir.

366
00:12:32,730 --> 00:12:33,970
I find it really fascinating.

367
00:12:34,410 --> 00:12:35,710
And while I was doing the news on

368
00:12:35,710 --> 00:12:38,530
Iran and the bombings and paying close attention

369
00:12:38,530 --> 00:12:41,150
to who they were assassinating, they assassinated an

370
00:12:41,150 --> 00:12:43,750
AI scientist, one of the top AI scientists

371
00:12:43,750 --> 00:12:44,770
in Iran.

372
00:12:44,870 --> 00:12:46,310
And he worked at the University of Tehran.

373
00:12:46,750 --> 00:12:49,030
And I couldn't find any military or nuclear

374
00:12:49,030 --> 00:12:50,010
attachments to him.

375
00:12:50,050 --> 00:12:51,950
So I was like, why the AI guy?

376
00:12:51,950 --> 00:12:54,190
Then a friend of mine, she sent me

377
00:12:54,190 --> 00:12:56,150
a tip that said, they've been using this

378
00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:58,250
software since 2018 called Mosaic.

379
00:12:58,550 --> 00:13:00,870
And that is owned and operated by Palantir.

380
00:13:01,050 --> 00:13:03,050
So this had all the elements I needed.

381
00:13:03,250 --> 00:13:05,090
It had the nuclear strike.

382
00:13:05,190 --> 00:13:06,290
It had Palantir.

383
00:13:06,390 --> 00:13:07,390
It had Whitney Webb.

384
00:13:07,790 --> 00:13:09,530
They killed an AI guy.

385
00:13:09,750 --> 00:13:11,850
And I was like, wow.

386
00:13:12,050 --> 00:13:13,730
So then I started really digging into it.

387
00:13:13,850 --> 00:13:16,070
And I realized that it's Palantir, it's the

388
00:13:16,070 --> 00:13:18,870
Mosaic software, which is a cover for Palantir,

389
00:13:19,310 --> 00:13:21,650
which is actually exactly like you said, mapping

390
00:13:21,650 --> 00:13:24,930
out these data points, stating that there's leaks

391
00:13:24,930 --> 00:13:27,530
or issues at certain sites that have never

392
00:13:27,530 --> 00:13:30,190
been known to have nuclear issues or nuclear

393
00:13:30,190 --> 00:13:33,710
weapons or nuclear material at those sites.

394
00:13:34,050 --> 00:13:35,130
It's very interesting.

395
00:13:35,430 --> 00:13:37,250
And now you see kind of the IAEA

396
00:13:37,250 --> 00:13:39,630
saying, well, we didn't say that they had

397
00:13:39,630 --> 00:13:40,590
nuclear weapons.

398
00:13:40,850 --> 00:13:43,290
We're just saying that they're in the process

399
00:13:43,290 --> 00:13:44,170
of developing them.

400
00:13:44,230 --> 00:13:46,390
It was Mosaic that actually came out and

401
00:13:46,390 --> 00:13:49,330
said the uranium is enriched beyond capacity.

402
00:13:49,330 --> 00:13:53,450
And they have enough enriched uranium to build

403
00:13:53,450 --> 00:13:54,190
nine bombs.

404
00:13:54,710 --> 00:13:57,510
The nine bomb theory is the new WMDs.

405
00:13:57,510 --> 00:14:00,210
So WMDs was Iraq, nine bomb theory is

406
00:14:00,210 --> 00:14:00,450
Iran.

407
00:14:00,910 --> 00:14:03,730
They had enough, quote unquote, enriched uranium to

408
00:14:03,730 --> 00:14:07,470
assemble nine dirty bombs, which there's nothing that

409
00:14:07,470 --> 00:14:08,030
proves that.

410
00:14:08,290 --> 00:14:10,490
Now we're realizing that this is all because

411
00:14:10,490 --> 00:14:13,730
Iran was going to develop a nuclear weapon.

412
00:14:14,510 --> 00:14:16,130
And then sort of, I'm wondering why we're

413
00:14:16,130 --> 00:14:18,430
using predictive software to start wars.

414
00:14:18,970 --> 00:14:19,670
It's over.

415
00:14:21,370 --> 00:14:23,570
Well, for one thing, it's not, they're not

416
00:14:23,570 --> 00:14:26,170
developing nine dirty, they can do dirty bombs

417
00:14:26,170 --> 00:14:26,830
tomorrow.

418
00:14:28,110 --> 00:14:30,190
Dirty bombs, just a bunch of crap put

419
00:14:30,190 --> 00:14:31,670
in a, you know, in a regular bomb.

420
00:14:31,870 --> 00:14:33,350
In a bucket, in a shot off into

421
00:14:33,350 --> 00:14:33,690
space.

422
00:14:34,030 --> 00:14:35,730
To explode a bunch of, so that's, so

423
00:14:35,730 --> 00:14:38,690
why is she saying to develop nine dirty

424
00:14:38,690 --> 00:14:39,090
bombs?

425
00:14:39,230 --> 00:14:40,090
This is wrong.

426
00:14:40,330 --> 00:14:40,730
I don't know.

427
00:14:40,750 --> 00:14:43,590
So already we have analysis that has got

428
00:14:43,590 --> 00:14:46,530
at its base misinformation.

429
00:14:47,150 --> 00:14:49,910
Well, she says that we're using predictive software

430
00:14:49,910 --> 00:14:50,950
to start wars.

431
00:14:51,170 --> 00:14:54,390
And by the way, most people are, who

432
00:14:54,390 --> 00:14:57,530
were okay with President Trump are not okay

433
00:14:57,530 --> 00:14:58,390
with him right now.

434
00:14:58,590 --> 00:14:59,810
They do not like him.

435
00:14:59,890 --> 00:15:01,430
This is not what I voted for.

436
00:15:02,230 --> 00:15:03,510
I did not vote for war.

437
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,560
Well, I'm just telling you what people disagree

438
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:08,100
with that.

439
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:09,460
I disagree with it too.

440
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,640
But no, no, I disagree with the comment

441
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,840
that you made, which is most people.

442
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:14,840
Okay.

443
00:15:14,980 --> 00:15:17,160
Most people in Fredericksburg, Texas.

444
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,160
Which for me is- Oh, well now

445
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:21,140
that's different.

446
00:15:21,820 --> 00:15:21,920
Yes.

447
00:15:22,140 --> 00:15:23,420
Oh, no, people don't like this.

448
00:15:23,740 --> 00:15:25,020
Oh, this is interesting.

449
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:25,640
Yeah.

450
00:15:25,820 --> 00:15:27,560
You know, I find the most interesting part

451
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,000
of the show in the last year or

452
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:34,200
so is your analysis of the locals.

453
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,620
Because it's fascinating because it is a cross

454
00:15:38,620 --> 00:15:41,600
section of a certain type of American that

455
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,500
does permeate the entire country.

456
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:44,320
Oh, for sure.

457
00:15:44,340 --> 00:15:46,760
And it's always interesting to me because I'm

458
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:47,560
in Berkeley.

459
00:15:48,260 --> 00:15:50,360
So, you know, I got a pretty standard

460
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:51,200
fare around here.

461
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,080
You don't get out of the house.

462
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:53,360
You don't talk to any- I don't

463
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:54,240
get out of the house.

464
00:15:54,380 --> 00:15:57,040
I have to buy food and occasionally water.

465
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:58,940
I have to go out and get water.

466
00:15:58,980 --> 00:16:01,620
Doesn't Jay just slip under the door?

467
00:16:01,820 --> 00:16:02,600
I dehydrate.

468
00:16:05,180 --> 00:16:05,540
Yeah.

469
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:09,180
So, you know, everyone's like, what do you

470
00:16:09,180 --> 00:16:09,520
think?

471
00:16:09,620 --> 00:16:11,380
Well, you should listen to the show because

472
00:16:11,380 --> 00:16:12,800
we're going to figure out what we think

473
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,060
on the show.

474
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,160
But I would say, well, let's get to

475
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:19,720
your analysis clips and then we can dive.

476
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,140
Let's take a deep dive into this topic,

477
00:16:22,420 --> 00:16:22,520
John.

478
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,080
There's a couple of things here.

479
00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:29,500
Now, one of the things, this woman, I

480
00:16:29,500 --> 00:16:31,060
have to say, this is from last night.

481
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:32,160
So it's always, it's wrong.

482
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:33,800
And there's some corrections I think I want

483
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:34,660
to make up front.

484
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,840
The attack on Iran on the sites consisted

485
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:44,400
of 30 Tomahawk missiles sent off from a

486
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,360
submarine.

487
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,220
The missiles took one hour and 45 minutes

488
00:16:49,220 --> 00:16:52,680
to hit a couple of the sites.

489
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,060
And they were launched in advance of the

490
00:16:56,060 --> 00:16:56,760
B-2 bombers.

491
00:16:56,860 --> 00:16:58,700
But the B-2 bomber strike was, were

492
00:16:58,700 --> 00:17:00,100
to take place before them.

493
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,840
This is of unbelievable complexity to this.

494
00:17:03,460 --> 00:17:06,579
The bomber would bomb the, use the bunker

495
00:17:06,579 --> 00:17:08,359
bombers, the bunker bombs.

496
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:08,700
The mop.

497
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:09,240
The mop.

498
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:10,380
The mops.

499
00:17:10,660 --> 00:17:12,119
And they were going to use 14.

500
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,339
So there were seven, there were seven B

501
00:17:15,339 --> 00:17:19,099
-2 bombers with an array of other fighters.

502
00:17:20,300 --> 00:17:22,400
And they dropped 14 bombs.

503
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,000
And those bombs are supposed to hit before

504
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,280
the Tomahawk missiles, which were launched an hour

505
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:29,860
and 45 minutes before that.

506
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,860
So this is information that she doesn't have.

507
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,520
And she's just guessing.

508
00:17:36,740 --> 00:17:38,420
And she's so good at this.

509
00:17:38,740 --> 00:17:40,500
This woman is Jennifer Griffin.

510
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:44,860
She's a version of Herridge, the pixie girl.

511
00:17:45,360 --> 00:17:47,100
She's a gray haired version.

512
00:17:47,260 --> 00:17:47,580
Oh yeah.

513
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,340
No, she's, she's on Fox the whole time.

514
00:17:49,420 --> 00:17:49,760
Isn't she?

515
00:17:49,780 --> 00:17:50,620
She's on a Fox.

516
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,600
She's the Fox version of the CIA plan.

517
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:54,620
She's read in.

518
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,220
Yes, she's read in.

519
00:17:56,300 --> 00:17:56,900
She's read in.

520
00:17:56,980 --> 00:17:57,120
Yeah.

521
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,400
But she's received, she hangs out at the

522
00:17:59,400 --> 00:17:59,680
Pentagon.

523
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,220
So I think she's read in mostly by

524
00:18:01,220 --> 00:18:02,280
the military guys.

525
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,420
And she wasn't read in on this.

526
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,300
And nobody seems to have been read in

527
00:18:06,300 --> 00:18:06,700
on this.

528
00:18:06,780 --> 00:18:08,960
This was a, and she talks about that.

529
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,780
And I think this is the most phenomenal

530
00:18:10,780 --> 00:18:11,600
part about it.

531
00:18:12,140 --> 00:18:15,540
They did not mention, they're called the magic

532
00:18:15,540 --> 00:18:17,920
eight or the eight balls or some bull

533
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:18,260
crap.

534
00:18:18,740 --> 00:18:21,180
The eight Congress people that are supposed to

535
00:18:21,180 --> 00:18:22,320
be informed with something like this.

536
00:18:22,500 --> 00:18:26,140
Oh, it's the, it's the, the furious five.

537
00:18:26,340 --> 00:18:28,180
No, the, what are they called?

538
00:18:28,940 --> 00:18:29,800
The eight something.

539
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:30,260
Yes.

540
00:18:30,660 --> 00:18:33,380
And they didn't, weren't told Jack.

541
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,340
And why weren't they told Jack?

542
00:18:35,360 --> 00:18:36,440
Cause you can't trust them.

543
00:18:37,540 --> 00:18:38,780
You can't trust them.

544
00:18:38,780 --> 00:18:40,240
They're working for both sides.

545
00:18:40,260 --> 00:18:41,800
Gang of eight, gang of eight.

546
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:42,980
The gang of eight.

547
00:18:43,100 --> 00:18:44,420
They won't, they'll talk.

548
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:45,460
They'll blow it.

549
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,620
I don't, I think that Tulsi Gabbard was

550
00:18:47,620 --> 00:18:49,320
kept out of some of these meetings because

551
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,580
yes, I don't think that they, it's that

552
00:18:51,580 --> 00:18:52,700
they don't trust her.

553
00:18:52,980 --> 00:18:55,680
They don't trust the CIA and these intelligence

554
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,680
agencies from making a phone call.

555
00:18:57,780 --> 00:18:59,140
Hey, there's a bomb that's coming in.

556
00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:02,920
Wouldn't you, wouldn't you think also an analyst,

557
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,860
an analyst came to me through someone else

558
00:19:06,860 --> 00:19:09,640
and said, this is also a big F

559
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,860
you to the Brits and the CIA who

560
00:19:11,860 --> 00:19:15,780
have been destabilizing and mucking around in the

561
00:19:15,780 --> 00:19:19,120
region for decades, which is absolutely.

562
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:19,620
Yeah.

563
00:19:19,660 --> 00:19:21,220
I thought that, Oh, that was spot on

564
00:19:21,220 --> 00:19:21,860
when I heard that.

565
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:23,020
I'm like, yeah, exactly.

566
00:19:23,860 --> 00:19:25,760
So no, no one was read in.

567
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,820
I got military people saying, oh, B2 is

568
00:19:29,820 --> 00:19:30,620
going to Guam.

569
00:19:30,700 --> 00:19:31,600
That means it's Iran.

570
00:19:31,740 --> 00:19:34,060
And then, but that was the, that was

571
00:19:34,060 --> 00:19:34,740
the diversion.

572
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:35,880
Yeah.

573
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,480
There were people, there were people even in

574
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:43,280
the military who have ties who were looking

575
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:43,920
at the diversion.

576
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,300
When the actual strike went the other way,

577
00:19:46,360 --> 00:19:47,760
they went around the globe in the other

578
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:48,280
direction.

579
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,760
That's what Jennifer talks about here.

580
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,900
And she's, she deconstructs this beautifully considering this

581
00:19:53,900 --> 00:19:55,600
was right after it happened.

582
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,940
So she's there information, you know, she's assuming

583
00:19:57,940 --> 00:19:59,380
they're going to drop a couple of these

584
00:19:59,380 --> 00:20:02,240
mops and when they dropped 14, she doesn't

585
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,160
have that information yet, but let's listen to

586
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:04,480
this.

587
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:05,960
This is Iran bombing.

588
00:20:06,100 --> 00:20:07,400
And this is Jennifer Griffin.

589
00:20:07,820 --> 00:20:10,420
It's notable how much deception was involved in

590
00:20:10,420 --> 00:20:11,200
this operation.

591
00:20:11,660 --> 00:20:14,440
All eyes were looking West towards Guam and

592
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,320
the B2s that took off late last night

593
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:18,160
towards Guam.

594
00:20:18,940 --> 00:20:22,200
It's possible that, but if the distance there

595
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,300
would suggest that the B2s may have also

596
00:20:24,300 --> 00:20:27,180
flown East from Whiteman Air Force Base in

597
00:20:27,180 --> 00:20:27,540
Missouri.

598
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,900
Remember the air refuelers, many of them were

599
00:20:29,900 --> 00:20:31,940
placed in Europe and in the, across the

600
00:20:31,940 --> 00:20:32,400
Middle East.

601
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,060
And that is what is known as an

602
00:20:34,060 --> 00:20:35,120
air refueling bridge.

603
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,260
And all of those B2s would require much

604
00:20:38,260 --> 00:20:41,800
air refueling in order to make it, they

605
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,700
usually fly round trip from Whiteman.

606
00:20:44,260 --> 00:20:46,960
And so what we can say, and the

607
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,060
president said this in his truth social post

608
00:20:49,060 --> 00:20:52,820
is that a full payload of bombs, those

609
00:20:52,820 --> 00:20:55,900
massive ordinance penetrators, the 30,000 pound bunker

610
00:20:55,900 --> 00:20:57,720
buster bombs were dropped at Fordow.

611
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,180
And as we have reported, there are two

612
00:21:00,180 --> 00:21:01,340
entrances to Fordow.

613
00:21:01,340 --> 00:21:03,580
So at least two bombs at each two

614
00:21:03,580 --> 00:21:06,100
entrance, which suggests at least two B2s were

615
00:21:06,100 --> 00:21:07,620
involved over Fordow.

616
00:21:07,700 --> 00:21:09,680
My suspicion is that there were more.

617
00:21:10,140 --> 00:21:11,620
And then you have the two other sites,

618
00:21:11,740 --> 00:21:15,040
Natanz, which is also has an underground enrichment

619
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:15,720
facility.

620
00:21:15,980 --> 00:21:18,120
The Israelis had not been able to reach

621
00:21:18,120 --> 00:21:20,540
or take out that facility despite the last

622
00:21:20,540 --> 00:21:22,180
10 days of bombing.

623
00:21:22,380 --> 00:21:24,760
And so now U.S. war planes, like

624
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,540
likely another B2 bomber had dropped that mop,

625
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,500
the 30,000 pound bunker buster on Natanz.

626
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,740
And then you also have Isfahan, a third

627
00:21:33,740 --> 00:21:35,560
site south of Tehran.

628
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,320
And that is also a very significant enrichment

629
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:38,980
facility.

630
00:21:39,700 --> 00:21:44,300
So those B2 bombers, it's possible that as

631
00:21:44,300 --> 00:21:46,620
everybody was looking West for the B2s flying

632
00:21:46,620 --> 00:21:48,520
towards Guam, that in fact there was another

633
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,420
package of squadron of B2s that were flying

634
00:21:51,420 --> 00:21:52,800
East from Whiteman.

635
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,460
It's about a 15 hour trip from Whiteman

636
00:21:55,460 --> 00:21:58,700
in Missouri to the Middle East, to Iran.

637
00:21:58,940 --> 00:22:01,760
And those bombers often fly round trip and

638
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,560
takes them about 30 hours to get home.

639
00:22:03,780 --> 00:22:05,880
So there was another new term which cropped

640
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,420
up, which has been going for the past

641
00:22:07,420 --> 00:22:09,720
few days, is the package, the package.

642
00:22:09,860 --> 00:22:10,660
Yeah, package.

643
00:22:10,740 --> 00:22:12,680
This package included, this package.

644
00:22:13,120 --> 00:22:14,880
That is, I had not, I don't think

645
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,120
I've heard that before, using the term the

646
00:22:18,120 --> 00:22:18,580
package.

647
00:22:18,820 --> 00:22:20,360
This is the package we put together.

648
00:22:20,360 --> 00:22:22,720
Don't, I can't say that I've heard it

649
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:22,960
either.

650
00:22:23,120 --> 00:22:23,740
There's news to be.

651
00:22:25,700 --> 00:22:28,620
So just as right after this happened, which

652
00:22:28,620 --> 00:22:31,960
was our time around three o'clock, which

653
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:36,900
I will mention, donations stopped dead at three

654
00:22:36,900 --> 00:22:37,840
o'clock yesterday.

655
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,660
We didn't get, they dribble in usually all

656
00:22:40,660 --> 00:22:41,000
night.

657
00:22:41,980 --> 00:22:44,060
But at three o'clock PayPal had no

658
00:22:44,060 --> 00:22:48,240
donations after 3.15. Now either that PayPal

659
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,080
was shuttered or they, now the Iranians, you

660
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,720
know, they cut them off because they're one

661
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,860
of the world's greatest hacking operations.

662
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,340
But anyway, that's going with part two of

663
00:23:00,340 --> 00:23:00,520
her.

664
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,680
The other thing I can point out, Brett,

665
00:23:02,820 --> 00:23:04,960
is that this is an operation in the

666
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,600
last 18 years since I've been at the

667
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,200
Pentagon, I've never seen such operational security.

668
00:23:09,820 --> 00:23:12,980
There was nobody speaking about this.

669
00:23:13,260 --> 00:23:15,420
Any of the preparations, there was a complete

670
00:23:15,420 --> 00:23:18,100
lockdown, almost a blackout of information for the

671
00:23:18,100 --> 00:23:18,980
last few days.

672
00:23:19,540 --> 00:23:21,420
I'm sitting here in the Pentagon right now.

673
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,320
I can tell you the hallways are empty

674
00:23:23,940 --> 00:23:26,460
and all of the information is coming right

675
00:23:26,460 --> 00:23:27,500
now out of the White House.

676
00:23:27,580 --> 00:23:31,880
That is a significant achievement because there was,

677
00:23:32,060 --> 00:23:33,980
there were no leaks about the timing.

678
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,160
Now sometimes, I think those who, a lot

679
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,860
of the flight trackers, the open source intelligence

680
00:23:39,860 --> 00:23:43,780
flight trackers, that flight radar did indicate some

681
00:23:43,780 --> 00:23:45,300
of the, when the B-2s took off

682
00:23:45,300 --> 00:23:45,840
from Whiteman.

683
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,660
But again, nobody really expected that it would

684
00:23:49,660 --> 00:23:50,940
take place this evening.

685
00:23:51,060 --> 00:23:52,500
If you looked at the moon schedule, you

686
00:23:52,500 --> 00:23:54,300
might've had a clue because it was a

687
00:23:54,300 --> 00:23:58,440
waning crescent and almost a new moon on

688
00:23:58,440 --> 00:23:59,260
the 25th.

689
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:00,980
So it would have been very, very dark

690
00:24:00,980 --> 00:24:02,640
over Iran tonight.

691
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,280
And you need that in order to bomb,

692
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,280
that's the ideal condition for something like a

693
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,440
B-2 that is, yes, it's stealth, but

694
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,120
it still has to be escorted in in

695
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:16,460
case any, Iran were to put up any

696
00:24:16,460 --> 00:24:20,400
planes or there were any opportunities to fire

697
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,800
on those B-2s, which are such valuable

698
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,200
and very, very special planes.

699
00:24:25,420 --> 00:24:28,100
Only the U.S. military has this kind

700
00:24:28,100 --> 00:24:30,580
of weaponry and this capability.

701
00:24:30,860 --> 00:24:32,260
No other country in the world could have

702
00:24:32,260 --> 00:24:34,680
carried off what occurred tonight.

703
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:36,140
Oh, well, at least she gets the talking

704
00:24:36,140 --> 00:24:37,000
point in at the end.

705
00:24:37,100 --> 00:24:37,720
Good job.

706
00:24:38,580 --> 00:24:39,400
No one could do this.

707
00:24:39,540 --> 00:24:40,100
We're the best.

708
00:24:40,380 --> 00:24:41,860
Number one, phone finger number one.

709
00:24:42,120 --> 00:24:42,880
That was Trump talking.

710
00:24:43,060 --> 00:24:43,220
Yeah.

711
00:24:43,220 --> 00:24:46,020
For people's information out there, we have 17

712
00:24:46,020 --> 00:24:47,640
B-2s in service.

713
00:24:49,020 --> 00:24:51,260
They cost about $4 billion to make.

714
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:52,840
When they stopped making them years ago, they

715
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,360
moved to the B-21.

716
00:24:55,340 --> 00:24:56,840
And there were 19 built.

717
00:24:57,420 --> 00:25:01,380
One of them crashed, caused a bunch of

718
00:25:01,380 --> 00:25:01,640
money.

719
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,160
And I guess another one was a Lemon.

720
00:25:05,780 --> 00:25:08,580
It was a Monday morning model, Monday morning

721
00:25:08,580 --> 00:25:10,080
B-2, it was no good.

722
00:25:11,580 --> 00:25:14,800
So there were plenty of planes to go

723
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,500
around since they sent seven of them.

724
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,780
So here we go with analysis, the end

725
00:25:20,780 --> 00:25:21,280
of her.

726
00:25:21,740 --> 00:25:24,680
By the way, I was knowing that this

727
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,260
happened, her analysis came right after it started.

728
00:25:28,120 --> 00:25:29,880
I was extremely impressed.

729
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,180
I'm now always going to be impressed.

730
00:25:32,260 --> 00:25:34,020
And when she shows up, I'm gonna listen.

731
00:25:35,900 --> 00:25:38,800
That's how, it was just pretty astonishing to

732
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:39,800
me that she did all this.

733
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:40,640
Here we go.

734
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,560
Yeah, Jen, you're exactly right on the operational

735
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,060
security here and the fact that there were

736
00:25:46,060 --> 00:25:49,100
obviously some red herrings and in a world

737
00:25:49,100 --> 00:25:53,600
where decisions are made and the world digests

738
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,980
the decision even before it's made because of

739
00:25:55,980 --> 00:25:58,700
social media and everyone's watching everywhere.

740
00:25:59,260 --> 00:26:02,440
This was a pretty amazing operation.

741
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,040
When you start thinking that the president said

742
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,740
within two weeks, we are two days from

743
00:26:07,740 --> 00:26:08,700
within two weeks.

744
00:26:09,420 --> 00:26:13,120
And this happens with a post on Truth

745
00:26:13,120 --> 00:26:17,240
Social and no other word really getting out

746
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,340
ahead of that is pretty stunning.

747
00:26:19,540 --> 00:26:22,140
The other extraordinary thing, Brett, is that I've

748
00:26:22,140 --> 00:26:25,180
spoken to past planners who've been involved in

749
00:26:25,180 --> 00:26:27,400
planning for this kind of mission for the

750
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:28,280
past 20 years.

751
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,300
And they all told me to a person

752
00:26:30,300 --> 00:26:32,960
that it would normally take the US military

753
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,520
about 30 days to get all of their

754
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,120
assets, their military assets into position.

755
00:26:38,120 --> 00:26:39,860
This took about two weeks.

756
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,800
If you count back to the meeting at

757
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,620
Camp David on June 8th, where I think

758
00:26:44,620 --> 00:26:48,100
this was first discussed, it's been about two

759
00:26:48,100 --> 00:26:49,300
weeks since then.

760
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:54,240
And by moving the USS Nimitz from the

761
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,420
Pacific to the Middle East and putting all

762
00:26:56,420 --> 00:27:00,380
those destroyers in the Eastern Med and along

763
00:27:00,380 --> 00:27:04,380
with F-22 fighter squadrons, which left Langley

764
00:27:04,380 --> 00:27:06,880
Air Force Base earlier this week, all of

765
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,600
those refuelers, those refuelers are really the heroes

766
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,780
also of this mission because it is, again,

767
00:27:12,860 --> 00:27:15,340
the US and Israel are really among the

768
00:27:15,340 --> 00:27:18,360
only countries in the world that can refuel

769
00:27:18,360 --> 00:27:19,040
mid-flight.

770
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,780
And that is what allowed those B-2

771
00:27:21,780 --> 00:27:23,720
bombers to fly all the way from the

772
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,560
continental US from Whiteman Air Force Base in

773
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,520
Missouri all the way to the Middle East

774
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,160
without ever having to land.

775
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,280
Yeah, so the other part of the deception

776
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,020
was the two weeks thing.

777
00:27:35,120 --> 00:27:36,060
Here's a mini cut.

778
00:27:36,060 --> 00:27:37,740
I'll let you know in about two weeks,

779
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:38,640
within two weeks.

780
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,380
I could answer that question better in two

781
00:27:40,380 --> 00:27:40,580
weeks.

782
00:27:40,660 --> 00:27:42,300
I'll do this at some point over the

783
00:27:42,300 --> 00:27:43,080
next two weeks.

784
00:27:43,180 --> 00:27:44,760
I'll announce it over the next two weeks.

785
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,320
I'll let you know in about two weeks.

786
00:27:46,660 --> 00:27:49,180
It'll be out in about less than two

787
00:27:49,180 --> 00:27:49,440
weeks.

788
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,000
And so with that in mind, I went

789
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,380
back to the clip we played on the

790
00:27:54,380 --> 00:27:58,600
last show and it actually sounds like President

791
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,500
Trump had, of course, made up his mind.

792
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:01,760
He knew what the plan was.

793
00:28:01,820 --> 00:28:03,480
It was good to go when he came

794
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,240
out with this two-week stuff, which is

795
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,300
like, wow, everyone bought that.

796
00:28:08,500 --> 00:28:09,620
Oh, I'm like, oh, two weeks.

797
00:28:09,700 --> 00:28:11,060
Okay, we'll see what happens in two weeks.

798
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,720
Not even thinking that that was a lie.

799
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:14,340
Bullshit.

800
00:28:14,700 --> 00:28:15,060
A lie.

801
00:28:15,980 --> 00:28:18,220
But when you listen to him in hindsight,

802
00:28:18,580 --> 00:28:21,220
he really does sound sincerely sad that he

803
00:28:21,220 --> 00:28:21,880
has to do it.

804
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:22,620
Listen to this clip.

805
00:28:22,860 --> 00:28:25,160
Striking Iranian nuclear facilities.

806
00:28:25,300 --> 00:28:26,380
Where's your mindset on that?

807
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:27,380
You can't say that, right?

808
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,440
You don't seriously think I'm going to answer

809
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:29,940
that question.

810
00:28:30,540 --> 00:28:33,700
Will you strike the Iranian nuclear component and

811
00:28:33,700 --> 00:28:35,680
what time exactly, sir?

812
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:37,600
Sir, would you strike it?

813
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:39,580
Would you please inform us so we can

814
00:28:39,580 --> 00:28:40,460
be there and watch?

815
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:42,500
I mean, you don't know that I'm going

816
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:43,100
to even do it.

817
00:28:43,220 --> 00:28:43,800
You don't know.

818
00:28:43,860 --> 00:28:44,440
I may do it.

819
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:45,320
I may not do it.

820
00:28:45,380 --> 00:28:46,560
I mean, nobody knows what I'm going to

821
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:46,700
do.

822
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,320
I can tell you this, that Iran's got

823
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,500
a lot of trouble and they want to

824
00:28:52,500 --> 00:28:52,920
negotiate.

825
00:28:54,020 --> 00:28:55,740
And I said, why didn't you negotiate with

826
00:28:55,740 --> 00:28:58,380
me before all this death and destruction?

827
00:28:58,580 --> 00:28:59,260
Why didn't you negotiate?

828
00:28:59,300 --> 00:29:01,220
I said to the people, why didn't you

829
00:29:01,220 --> 00:29:02,940
negotiate with me two weeks ago?

830
00:29:03,540 --> 00:29:04,740
You could have done fine.

831
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:06,560
You would have had a country.

832
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:09,640
It's very sad to watch this.

833
00:29:09,780 --> 00:29:11,500
I mean, I've never, I've never seen anything

834
00:29:11,500 --> 00:29:11,900
like it.

835
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,600
It's so, you know, everyone thought it was

836
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:14,380
going to be the reverse.

837
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:15,600
I didn't, I didn't think so.

838
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:17,300
And I was telling him, you got to,

839
00:29:17,700 --> 00:29:18,640
you got to do something.

840
00:29:18,740 --> 00:29:19,500
You got to negotiate.

841
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,120
And at the end, last minute, they said,

842
00:29:22,180 --> 00:29:23,240
no, we're not going to do that.

843
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:23,940
And they got hit.

844
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:25,820
Remember 60 days?

845
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:27,320
And then came the 60th.

846
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,900
So he sounds sincerely like sad that he

847
00:29:30,900 --> 00:29:33,100
had this all planned and had to do

848
00:29:33,100 --> 00:29:33,260
it.

849
00:29:34,100 --> 00:29:35,340
I think he is.

850
00:29:35,540 --> 00:29:37,540
I think he's sincere when he says he's

851
00:29:37,540 --> 00:29:39,120
a peace guy.

852
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:43,020
Now, knowing, knowing that this really, since 1992,

853
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,780
we've been hearing about the days, weeks, they're

854
00:29:46,780 --> 00:29:47,540
almost there.

855
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:48,100
It's coming.

856
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,980
There was a great meme floating around, which

857
00:29:50,980 --> 00:29:52,440
went something like this.

858
00:29:52,900 --> 00:29:57,880
In 1220, the Persian Empire collapsed under the

859
00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:58,720
such and such.

860
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,260
And they were just two weeks away from

861
00:30:01,260 --> 00:30:02,380
a nuclear bomb.

862
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,780
So now what is not mentioned, and of

863
00:30:05,780 --> 00:30:08,760
course, there's no clips of it, but Pakistan

864
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,180
was sending their Chinese J-35 fighters over

865
00:30:12,180 --> 00:30:12,780
to Iran.

866
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,260
I think that the Chinese moves, you know,

867
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,780
they had some big cargo planes flying in.

868
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,520
I think they were gearing up and that's

869
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,080
what made the decision go quicker.

870
00:30:23,100 --> 00:30:26,220
Because I still believe with certainty that this

871
00:30:26,220 --> 00:30:29,160
is about sending a message to China and

872
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:33,280
not about some fictitious or whatever, Fatah Morgana

873
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,620
of nuclear bombs.

874
00:30:37,140 --> 00:30:38,960
Because, I mean, this has been going on

875
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,060
forever, this talk.

876
00:30:40,140 --> 00:30:42,600
And at the same time, if there's no

877
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,360
more nuclear capability, well, then we're done, right?

878
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,000
Then Iran doesn't have to, Israel doesn't have

879
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:50,600
to do anything.

880
00:30:51,140 --> 00:30:52,340
We don't have to worry about it.

881
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,900
Bibi doesn't have to hold up pictures of

882
00:30:54,900 --> 00:30:56,860
bombs at the UN because it's gone, it's

883
00:30:56,860 --> 00:30:57,120
done.

884
00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,620
So that does kind of erase that whole

885
00:30:59,620 --> 00:30:59,940
thing.

886
00:30:59,960 --> 00:31:00,620
It's gone now.

887
00:31:00,620 --> 00:31:02,100
You can't use that anymore.

888
00:31:04,460 --> 00:31:06,700
Can I interrupt for one second and play

889
00:31:06,700 --> 00:31:07,240
a clip?

890
00:31:07,540 --> 00:31:07,640
Yeah.

891
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,100
This was, I was, when this war started,

892
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:17,220
coincidentally, I was watching live Al Jazeera.

893
00:31:17,860 --> 00:31:20,320
I felt like getting Al Jazeera clips.

894
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:20,760
Okay.

895
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,440
And there's something that took place with Trump's

896
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:27,240
post that I don't think anybody recognized as

897
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:28,020
humor.

898
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:33,160
His initial post, I thought was done as

899
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,540
a form of humor that it just was

900
00:31:36,540 --> 00:31:38,480
lost on all media.

901
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,940
And so I have the Al Jazeera clip.

902
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,600
This is the Trump truth social post.

903
00:31:44,780 --> 00:31:47,140
And this is the Al Jazeera guy reading

904
00:31:47,140 --> 00:31:47,560
the thing.

905
00:31:47,700 --> 00:31:48,820
He missed the joke.

906
00:31:49,780 --> 00:31:52,400
Everybody seems to have missed the joke, except,

907
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:53,720
I don't know, me.

908
00:31:54,460 --> 00:31:56,460
And not that I'm that great, but this

909
00:31:56,460 --> 00:31:58,000
was so obvious to me.

910
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,540
Can you play this clip?

911
00:31:59,860 --> 00:32:01,840
So here's what the U.S. President has

912
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:02,740
said in the last few minutes.

913
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:04,920
U.S. President Donald Trump posted on his

914
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,240
social media account saying, we have completed our

915
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,720
very successful attack on the three nuclear sites

916
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,620
in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.

917
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,500
All planes are now outside of Iran airspace.

918
00:32:15,940 --> 00:32:18,060
A full payload of bombs was dropped on

919
00:32:18,060 --> 00:32:19,280
the primary site, Fordow.

920
00:32:19,820 --> 00:32:22,140
All planes are safely on their way home.

921
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,940
Congratulations to our great American warriors.

922
00:32:25,620 --> 00:32:28,100
There is not another military in the world

923
00:32:28,100 --> 00:32:29,100
that could have done this.

924
00:32:29,220 --> 00:32:30,620
Now is the time for peace.

925
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,000
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

926
00:32:34,820 --> 00:32:37,460
That's like a memo.

927
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:38,360
You got it too.

928
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:39,280
A memo, yeah.

929
00:32:39,820 --> 00:32:42,280
It's got the memo meme.

930
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,220
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

931
00:32:46,860 --> 00:32:50,320
And nobody has commented on this little phrase

932
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,240
that he dropped in there to make it

933
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,780
seem like a bureaucratic piece.

934
00:32:54,780 --> 00:32:55,120
You know.

935
00:32:56,780 --> 00:32:57,260
Wow.

936
00:32:58,740 --> 00:32:59,640
That's interesting.

937
00:32:59,960 --> 00:33:01,780
It's like a word to the wise.

938
00:33:02,020 --> 00:33:03,340
I mean, all these kinds of things you

939
00:33:03,340 --> 00:33:04,940
get, if you ever worked in a company

940
00:33:04,940 --> 00:33:08,160
or an agency or anything, you have these

941
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,080
memo writers that put shit like that in

942
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:11,960
their memos, and it's very insulting.

943
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,160
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

944
00:33:14,740 --> 00:33:17,660
The men's washroom will be closed for the

945
00:33:17,660 --> 00:33:18,620
next five days.

946
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:21,840
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

947
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,800
I hope this message finds you well.

948
00:33:24,980 --> 00:33:27,880
Please do not flush anything down the toilets

949
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:29,620
that does not belong there.

950
00:33:29,780 --> 00:33:31,540
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

951
00:33:31,860 --> 00:33:32,400
Totally.

952
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,280
So, since you played the fox lady, this

953
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,420
is what Steve Bannon's big beef was.

954
00:33:38,980 --> 00:33:40,300
Sorry, I'm speaking Dutch now.

955
00:33:40,300 --> 00:33:42,260
I'm glad you got this because I didn't

956
00:33:42,260 --> 00:33:44,280
get to hear any of this stuff.

957
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:45,740
And did you get it this morning?

958
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,000
Unfortunately, because of our time zones, I didn't

959
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,320
get any good stuff from it.

960
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:53,980
I watched a lot of stuff this morning,

961
00:33:54,060 --> 00:33:55,580
but I didn't get any clips.

962
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:56,080
I know.

963
00:33:56,140 --> 00:33:58,120
I have the clips from this morning, thanks

964
00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,360
to the Jones Brothers Syndicate.

965
00:33:59,500 --> 00:34:01,220
So, we will definitely play some of that.

966
00:34:01,340 --> 00:34:03,860
But first, this is Bannon, and he blames

967
00:34:03,860 --> 00:34:05,040
this all on Fox News.

968
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,460
We can, listen, you can, and people on

969
00:34:07,460 --> 00:34:09,300
Fox, oh, it's good versus evil.

970
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:09,780
It's good.

971
00:34:10,139 --> 00:34:11,860
Yo, dude, John Adams said, if you want

972
00:34:11,860 --> 00:34:14,460
to go, you know, don't go abroad from

973
00:34:14,460 --> 00:34:15,300
monster society.

974
00:34:15,460 --> 00:34:16,560
There are monsters all over the world.

975
00:34:16,620 --> 00:34:18,620
We can do the good and evil everywhere.

976
00:34:18,620 --> 00:34:18,880
Everywhere.

977
00:34:19,340 --> 00:34:19,739
Everywhere.

978
00:34:21,580 --> 00:34:22,360
Is that what we're going to do?

979
00:34:22,460 --> 00:34:23,239
It's good versus evil.

980
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:23,639
Let's go.

981
00:34:24,060 --> 00:34:25,780
I would think if you're going to do

982
00:34:25,780 --> 00:34:27,500
good versus evil and kind of weigh them

983
00:34:27,500 --> 00:34:27,820
up.

984
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,060
By the way, the repetitiveness in this clip

985
00:34:30,060 --> 00:34:31,040
is not me editing.

986
00:34:31,260 --> 00:34:31,780
That's him.

987
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:33,820
Maybe we should be marching on Beijing.

988
00:34:34,300 --> 00:34:34,860
Let's roll.

989
00:34:35,260 --> 00:34:35,900
Let's do it.

990
00:34:36,340 --> 00:34:38,239
I don't hear any voices there for that.

991
00:34:38,620 --> 00:34:39,300
It's interesting.

992
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,580
Is Lao Bajing not worthy of that?

993
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:43,340
It's because they're Chinese and not worthy of

994
00:34:43,340 --> 00:34:43,500
that.

995
00:34:43,739 --> 00:34:44,560
Is that what it is?

996
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,320
Is he upset that it's not known that

997
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,940
this was about China or this?

998
00:34:52,380 --> 00:34:52,500
Why?

999
00:34:52,679 --> 00:34:53,500
I don't think so.

1000
00:34:53,780 --> 00:34:54,620
Is that what it is?

1001
00:34:55,139 --> 00:34:56,080
Is that what it is?

1002
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,260
No, I think a major FARA investigation should

1003
00:34:59,260 --> 00:35:00,260
take place at Fox News.

1004
00:35:00,380 --> 00:35:01,440
I believe that thoroughly.

1005
00:35:01,980 --> 00:35:03,200
I think we need to see if they

1006
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,900
represent a foreign government as an agent.

1007
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,880
So I think he's saying that Israel is.

1008
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,020
He thinks Fox should be registered as a

1009
00:35:12,020 --> 00:35:13,440
foreign agent for Israel?

1010
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:14,180
Yes.

1011
00:35:14,580 --> 00:35:15,660
I think you ought to check the cell

1012
00:35:15,660 --> 00:35:17,460
phone, see the data, check the emails, what

1013
00:35:17,460 --> 00:35:18,420
was going back and forth.

1014
00:35:18,740 --> 00:35:21,220
What they were pushing on the American people.

1015
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,600
What are they pushing on the American people?

1016
00:35:23,720 --> 00:35:25,120
Where did this information come from?

1017
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,140
I think it has to happen.

1018
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:29,680
You can't have somebody cheerleading you on to

1019
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:29,980
war.

1020
00:35:30,100 --> 00:35:30,860
You have to sit there.

1021
00:35:31,220 --> 00:35:33,700
We haven't been cheerleading against doing it.

1022
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,140
What we're saying, first off, number one, we

1023
00:35:36,140 --> 00:35:37,780
believe it should be done, right?

1024
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,840
We agree that the mullahs should not get

1025
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:40,560
nuclear weapons.

1026
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,900
We believe there's many paths to do that.

1027
00:35:42,900 --> 00:35:45,260
President Trump was pursuing other paths as he

1028
00:35:45,260 --> 00:35:46,160
was from the first term.

1029
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,780
None of those paths were going on the

1030
00:35:49,780 --> 00:35:50,880
path to kinetic warfare.

1031
00:35:51,060 --> 00:35:52,400
None of them, okay?

1032
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:53,060
None of them.

1033
00:35:53,420 --> 00:35:55,020
But we got jammed up because last Thursday

1034
00:35:55,020 --> 00:35:56,560
night, had to do it, had to do

1035
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,040
it, had to do it, had to do

1036
00:35:58,040 --> 00:35:59,500
it, had to do it, had to do

1037
00:35:59,500 --> 00:35:59,660
it.

1038
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:01,600
Then we did with the sense of urgency,

1039
00:36:01,740 --> 00:36:03,400
the phony sense of urgency had upsell.

1040
00:36:03,460 --> 00:36:05,420
Now we need regime change, regime change, regime

1041
00:36:05,420 --> 00:36:05,960
change.

1042
00:36:06,020 --> 00:36:07,340
Gotta do it, gotta do it.

1043
00:36:07,660 --> 00:36:08,440
You're not MAGA.

1044
00:36:08,620 --> 00:36:09,160
You're not Trump.

1045
00:36:09,240 --> 00:36:10,140
You're not Team Trump.

1046
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:11,560
You're not Team Trump.

1047
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,640
Well, look, bro, we've been in these trenches

1048
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:14,920
with Trump a long time.

1049
00:36:15,100 --> 00:36:16,820
We know who teammates are and who are

1050
00:36:16,820 --> 00:36:17,720
the stays.

1051
00:36:18,740 --> 00:36:21,940
So he's, he's channeling George Bush somehow.

1052
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,520
That's what is, that's an interesting point to

1053
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,860
catch because he sounds a little like him.

1054
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:29,800
I gotta, gotta do it, gotta do it.

1055
00:36:29,820 --> 00:36:31,380
I gotta do it, gotta do it, gotta

1056
00:36:31,380 --> 00:36:31,780
do it.

1057
00:36:31,820 --> 00:36:33,960
You sound like George H.W. Yeah, no,

1058
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:35,680
George, no, George, yeah.

1059
00:36:35,780 --> 00:36:37,200
No, George H.W. is the one that

1060
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:38,600
said gotta do it, gotta do it, gotta

1061
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:38,920
do it.

1062
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,820
And again, I mean, to me, it's, it's

1063
00:36:42,820 --> 00:36:45,180
like, wow, this is so obvious what this

1064
00:36:45,180 --> 00:36:45,760
was about.

1065
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,920
You know, it's still like, go away, China.

1066
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:50,620
You have no business here.

1067
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,460
And look what we, and Trump had, you

1068
00:36:53,460 --> 00:36:56,080
know, taco, taco, I was calling Trump taco.

1069
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:58,520
Trump always chickens out.

1070
00:36:58,720 --> 00:36:59,700
And so he had to show it.

1071
00:36:59,780 --> 00:37:00,940
He had to show that, oh, no, I'm

1072
00:37:00,940 --> 00:37:01,800
not going to chicken out.

1073
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,060
I'm going to blow up these, these sand

1074
00:37:04,060 --> 00:37:04,780
bunkers.

1075
00:37:05,660 --> 00:37:06,180
Hmm.

1076
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:07,520
So.

1077
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,900
Well, let's stop for a second, because Bannon,

1078
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:15,940
let's face it, Bannon is on the outs.

1079
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:17,360
Oh, yeah.

1080
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,660
He's been on the outs since Trump started,

1081
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,940
since 2020, actually, even before that.

1082
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,000
Once he got thrown out of the White

1083
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,500
House by one of the bad, one of

1084
00:37:28,500 --> 00:37:30,640
the bad actors, it was Kelly or one

1085
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,320
of these guys, they got rid of him

1086
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:34,300
as soon as they could.

1087
00:37:34,780 --> 00:37:36,560
And he, you know, kind of is like

1088
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:37,200
a loose cannon.

1089
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,340
He's he's I think he's anti-Israel.

1090
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:45,160
He's also more than he is anti-war.

1091
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:46,700
And he has.

1092
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:54,400
He just has an abrasive personality of sorts.

1093
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,200
I mean, I think he's an entertaining podcaster,

1094
00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,500
but it's everything's, oh, you know, it's all

1095
00:37:59,500 --> 00:38:03,680
this, you know, this kind of kind of

1096
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:07,200
weird excitement that he's always got, like there's

1097
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,160
some conspiracy going on constantly.

1098
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,060
And he's, you know, he's he's the only

1099
00:38:11,060 --> 00:38:12,580
one that can identify it.

1100
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:13,860
He's brilliant.

1101
00:38:14,140 --> 00:38:15,000
I don't like the guy.

1102
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:21,140
What, what this, what this taking our, I

1103
00:38:21,140 --> 00:38:22,880
was going to say taking our theory into

1104
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:23,360
account.

1105
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:24,880
You don't like the guy's fine.

1106
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:25,260
Yeah.

1107
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:28,360
He's too annoying for me to watch long

1108
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:29,100
periods of.

1109
00:38:29,140 --> 00:38:30,500
He's like, okay, I got it.

1110
00:38:31,420 --> 00:38:33,200
But he's team Trump, I guess.

1111
00:38:33,300 --> 00:38:35,360
He says, we've been team Trump for a

1112
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:36,300
long time, bro.

1113
00:38:37,860 --> 00:38:39,900
Well, he thinks he is team Trump.

1114
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,660
Somebody sent me a note when I was

1115
00:38:41,660 --> 00:38:43,180
bitching about one of his clips and they

1116
00:38:43,180 --> 00:38:46,820
said, with Bannon saying, we, we got this

1117
00:38:46,820 --> 00:38:46,960
guy.

1118
00:38:47,020 --> 00:38:48,740
We got Hexeth and we got this guy

1119
00:38:48,740 --> 00:38:49,620
and we got that guy in.

1120
00:38:50,060 --> 00:38:52,340
And the note came and says what Bannon

1121
00:38:52,340 --> 00:38:55,420
is saying is MAGA, not we means MAGA.

1122
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,960
And I'm thinking what as a counter to

1123
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,280
that is that what Bannon is MAGA.

1124
00:39:01,780 --> 00:39:03,440
He represents MAGA.

1125
00:39:03,580 --> 00:39:06,100
He is the, the poster boy for MAGA.

1126
00:39:06,260 --> 00:39:07,040
I don't think so.

1127
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:08,520
Well, he thinks so.

1128
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,280
Or, or that's what he needs to, to

1129
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:13,080
justify.

1130
00:39:13,720 --> 00:39:16,340
I credit the guy for having a entertaining

1131
00:39:16,340 --> 00:39:17,660
show, a good podcast.

1132
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,980
So taking into account that this has really

1133
00:39:19,980 --> 00:39:21,920
been about China for a long time, it

1134
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,500
kind of puts the, the pallets of billions

1135
00:39:24,500 --> 00:39:26,600
of dollars of cash into perspective.

1136
00:39:26,780 --> 00:39:30,900
I can totally see the Obama administration going

1137
00:39:30,900 --> 00:39:34,840
to Iran and saying, you know, you know,

1138
00:39:35,460 --> 00:39:36,500
we'll give you money.

1139
00:39:36,580 --> 00:39:37,440
The Chinese got money.

1140
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:38,160
We got more money.

1141
00:39:38,220 --> 00:39:39,080
We'll give it to you cash.

1142
00:39:39,420 --> 00:39:40,500
We'll put it on pallets.

1143
00:39:40,580 --> 00:39:41,400
We'll bring it in.

1144
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,260
Just don't do business with China.

1145
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:44,940
You know what I mean?

1146
00:39:45,860 --> 00:39:47,680
There is a clip going around.

1147
00:39:47,780 --> 00:39:50,720
I didn't get, it's on Twitter floating around.

1148
00:39:50,720 --> 00:39:53,080
It's from some screwball show is some woman

1149
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,160
who's supposedly ex CIA.

1150
00:39:55,740 --> 00:39:57,900
And that pallet of cash was some sort

1151
00:39:57,900 --> 00:39:58,720
of blackmail.

1152
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:01,380
They had nothing to do with China.

1153
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:02,020
Maybe.

1154
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,920
I don't think that we're giving people money

1155
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,340
to not do business with China.

1156
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:07,260
It doesn't make sense.

1157
00:40:07,540 --> 00:40:08,800
And we're not going to give it to

1158
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:09,020
them.

1159
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:09,700
That's for sure.

1160
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:10,500
There's something else.

1161
00:40:10,980 --> 00:40:12,540
You're not going to give them credit for

1162
00:40:12,540 --> 00:40:13,280
being smart.

1163
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:15,800
Definitely not.

1164
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:16,140
Okay.

1165
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,720
So this morning, the morning shows, of course,

1166
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:22,960
I, the Steve, the Steve Jones and Neil

1167
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,980
Jones, Jones brothers syndicate always on top.

1168
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,840
So you need to have this guy, if

1169
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,540
we're talking about Iran, because he was up

1170
00:40:31,540 --> 00:40:33,220
all night in front of his monitor.

1171
00:40:33,460 --> 00:40:35,560
Whoa, it's Lindsey Graham, everybody.

1172
00:40:35,980 --> 00:40:39,040
You praised the president's decision overnight.

1173
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:40,500
And I know you just got off of

1174
00:40:40,500 --> 00:40:42,080
the phone with prime minister Netanyahu.

1175
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:43,860
What did he say to you about this

1176
00:40:43,860 --> 00:40:44,180
moment?

1177
00:40:44,180 --> 00:40:46,220
Well, first about the president's decision.

1178
00:40:46,380 --> 00:40:48,900
I thought it was bold, quite frankly, brilliant,

1179
00:40:49,060 --> 00:40:52,880
militarily necessary and most importantly, effective.

1180
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,900
So well done, Mr. President, to your your

1181
00:40:55,900 --> 00:40:58,700
team in our militaries and fantastic operation.

1182
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:00,900
That is substantially degraded.

1183
00:41:01,140 --> 00:41:02,880
I think Iran's nuclear program.

1184
00:41:02,980 --> 00:41:04,720
So I talked to Bibi just just a

1185
00:41:04,720 --> 00:41:05,340
few minutes ago.

1186
00:41:05,340 --> 00:41:07,480
So I was talking to Bibi just a

1187
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:08,240
few moments ago.

1188
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:09,080
And I said, hey, Bibi.

1189
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:10,900
Hey, I'm Lindsey Graham.

1190
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:11,580
I mean, Bibi.

1191
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:12,400
Really?

1192
00:41:12,740 --> 00:41:13,400
Really, Graham?

1193
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,260
I think Iran's nuclear program.

1194
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,080
So I talked to Bibi just just a

1195
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:17,800
few minutes ago.

1196
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:19,160
And I said, what would you like me

1197
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:20,120
to say, Bibi?

1198
00:41:20,620 --> 00:41:21,420
Listen to this.

1199
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,180
What would you like me to say, Bibi?

1200
00:41:23,980 --> 00:41:25,200
If you want to know someone who's under

1201
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,980
the influence of Israel, Israel, Israel, Israel, you

1202
00:41:28,980 --> 00:41:30,020
can't even pronounce it.

1203
00:41:30,420 --> 00:41:31,440
It's this guy.

1204
00:41:31,540 --> 00:41:32,660
He is definitely.

1205
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:34,620
What would you like me to say?

1206
00:41:35,140 --> 00:41:36,000
What would you like me to say?

1207
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,700
This guy's comic, he's comedic.

1208
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:38,100
Yes.

1209
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:39,240
Just a few minutes ago.

1210
00:41:39,240 --> 00:41:40,620
And I said, what would you like me

1211
00:41:40,620 --> 00:41:41,120
to say?

1212
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,060
Because I have no mind of my own,

1213
00:41:44,180 --> 00:41:44,440
Bibi.

1214
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:46,220
What would you like me to say?

1215
00:41:46,540 --> 00:41:47,900
I'm from South Carolina.

1216
00:41:48,060 --> 00:41:50,040
I'm a military industrial complex state.

1217
00:41:50,100 --> 00:41:51,120
What would you like me to say?

1218
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,580
He said, tell the American people, Israel is

1219
00:41:54,580 --> 00:41:55,960
profoundly grateful.

1220
00:41:56,220 --> 00:41:56,500
Israel.

1221
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:57,880
For all we do for Israel.

1222
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,220
And very grateful to President Trump for what

1223
00:42:01,220 --> 00:42:02,580
he ordered last night.

1224
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:04,640
Two messages.

1225
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,720
He wanted me to urge the Iranian people

1226
00:42:08,720 --> 00:42:09,940
to end this madness.

1227
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,380
Take this regime down and have a better

1228
00:42:13,380 --> 00:42:15,760
life for yourselves and be part of the

1229
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:17,420
region in a new and different way.

1230
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:19,980
And second, he wanted me to tell the

1231
00:42:19,980 --> 00:42:22,680
American people, Israel is not going to live

1232
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:23,760
this way anymore.

1233
00:42:24,180 --> 00:42:24,700
Israel.

1234
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:26,620
They're not going to live under threat from

1235
00:42:26,620 --> 00:42:27,480
Iran anymore.

1236
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:29,340
Last night they were attacked.

1237
00:42:29,820 --> 00:42:33,480
The early morning hours of today after the

1238
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,580
attack by President Trump, Israel fired ballistic missiles

1239
00:42:36,580 --> 00:42:40,420
into Israel, wounding Israeli citizens.

1240
00:42:40,780 --> 00:42:41,900
24 have been killed.

1241
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,320
This regime is not going to be tolerated

1242
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,020
by Israel, is what he told me.

1243
00:42:48,700 --> 00:42:52,360
And then in this next clip, he literally

1244
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,360
parrots Bibi, his friend, his good friend Bibi

1245
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,540
Netanyahu with the same words.

1246
00:42:57,700 --> 00:42:59,040
Okay, so let me follow up with you

1247
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:00,220
on that point, Senator.

1248
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,320
Because Prime Minister Netanyahu has signaled- This

1249
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:03,420
is a Christmas show.

1250
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:04,400
Say what?

1251
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:07,860
Meet the press with Kristen Welker.

1252
00:43:07,940 --> 00:43:08,200
Yes.

1253
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,380
Yes, this is from Meet the Press.

1254
00:43:10,540 --> 00:43:10,860
Exactly.

1255
00:43:11,100 --> 00:43:12,840
Israelis want to carry out regime change.

1256
00:43:12,940 --> 00:43:14,840
Would you support that if Israel were to

1257
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:15,960
carry out regime change?

1258
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:17,640
If I were Israel, I would have done

1259
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,240
it a long time ago.

1260
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,040
They've been held back in many ways.

1261
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,040
What would be the right response if America

1262
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:26,440
had a ballistic missile fired into our country

1263
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:27,440
and killed our citizens?

1264
00:43:27,720 --> 00:43:30,060
We would wipe the offender off the map.

1265
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:31,240
So here's what I hope.

1266
00:43:31,240 --> 00:43:34,360
After the hospital attack, and they were so

1267
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,040
lucky not to lose a lot of people.

1268
00:43:36,580 --> 00:43:38,840
By the way, it was not a hospital

1269
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:39,260
attack.

1270
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,060
It was a building next to the hospital

1271
00:43:41,060 --> 00:43:42,840
that was an intelligence building.

1272
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:44,140
But okay, Lindsey.

1273
00:43:44,580 --> 00:43:46,720
Israel's made a decision- Wait, stop there.

1274
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,580
And by the way, there is a little

1275
00:43:49,580 --> 00:43:52,460
kind of duplicitousness here because we, you know,

1276
00:43:52,500 --> 00:43:54,720
the Israelis have bombed a bunch of hospitals

1277
00:43:54,720 --> 00:43:55,480
in Gaza.

1278
00:43:55,700 --> 00:43:55,920
Yeah.

1279
00:43:56,340 --> 00:43:58,100
And nobody wants to bring that point up

1280
00:43:58,100 --> 00:44:01,120
because the hospitals were used as cover for,

1281
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,460
you know, the use of civilian cover for

1282
00:44:03,460 --> 00:44:04,380
their operations.

1283
00:44:05,180 --> 00:44:05,360
What?

1284
00:44:05,580 --> 00:44:07,600
And how is that different than an intelligence

1285
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,680
operation next to a hospital?

1286
00:44:09,980 --> 00:44:10,880
It's not.

1287
00:44:11,700 --> 00:44:13,000
But it's Lindsey Graham.

1288
00:44:13,780 --> 00:44:14,960
Israel's made a decision.

1289
00:44:15,220 --> 00:44:17,040
This regime is going to change in one

1290
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:17,640
of two ways.

1291
00:44:18,100 --> 00:44:20,240
They're going to change their behavior, which I

1292
00:44:20,240 --> 00:44:22,960
doubt the regime itself or the people are

1293
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,200
going to replace the regime.

1294
00:44:25,060 --> 00:44:27,700
They have less capability today than they did

1295
00:44:27,700 --> 00:44:30,000
yesterday, but they're still religious Nazis.

1296
00:44:30,340 --> 00:44:31,940
They want to purify Islam.

1297
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,280
That is literally Netanyahu talk.

1298
00:44:34,620 --> 00:44:35,640
Religious Nazis.

1299
00:44:35,900 --> 00:44:36,520
They're Nazis.

1300
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:37,960
They want to- I have a-

1301
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:40,880
That's a very strange comparison to make.

1302
00:44:43,630 --> 00:44:43,950
Yeah.

1303
00:44:44,130 --> 00:44:46,990
I mean, the Nazis was very specific.

1304
00:44:48,390 --> 00:44:48,670
Yeah.

1305
00:44:48,950 --> 00:44:51,310
It's the National Socialist Party of Germany in

1306
00:44:51,310 --> 00:44:54,130
the 19th, late 20s, actually mid 30s.

1307
00:44:54,130 --> 00:44:56,290
Now he says they're religious Nazis.

1308
00:44:56,950 --> 00:44:58,830
Graham is- The whole thing is ridiculous.

1309
00:44:59,150 --> 00:45:02,130
He's- I also want to reintroduce the

1310
00:45:02,130 --> 00:45:05,390
idea that all this is theater and it's

1311
00:45:05,390 --> 00:45:08,450
the Ayatollah who ditched himself into a bunker.

1312
00:45:09,130 --> 00:45:11,070
He's the only one who put himself in

1313
00:45:11,070 --> 00:45:12,930
a safe place where they're killing all the

1314
00:45:12,930 --> 00:45:16,530
generals and AI guys and nuclear scientists.

1315
00:45:17,170 --> 00:45:20,390
And the possibility still exists in my mind

1316
00:45:20,390 --> 00:45:22,950
- That this is- That this is

1317
00:45:22,950 --> 00:45:25,390
all a setup to get rid of all

1318
00:45:25,390 --> 00:45:29,490
these threatening military guys that were threatening the

1319
00:45:29,490 --> 00:45:30,250
regime.

1320
00:45:30,610 --> 00:45:33,510
As we say in the old country, they're

1321
00:45:33,510 --> 00:45:35,030
all playing under the same hat.

1322
00:45:36,090 --> 00:45:38,050
They're all playing under the same hat.

1323
00:45:38,970 --> 00:45:43,930
And from Soleimani, when Trump killed him on,

1324
00:45:44,030 --> 00:45:45,850
it's all been just getting rid of these

1325
00:45:45,850 --> 00:45:47,130
guys one after the other.

1326
00:45:47,350 --> 00:45:51,570
So it's possible that the Ayatollah is actually

1327
00:45:51,570 --> 00:45:53,250
a good guy and would like to get

1328
00:45:53,250 --> 00:45:54,510
China out of there too.

1329
00:45:54,830 --> 00:45:56,850
They don't want China- Sorry?

1330
00:45:56,850 --> 00:45:59,990
Well, the Ayatollah was against nuclear weapons.

1331
00:46:00,570 --> 00:46:02,090
He was against- He's been- He's

1332
00:46:02,090 --> 00:46:04,850
publicly been against it the whole time until

1333
00:46:04,850 --> 00:46:07,450
- I mean, this whole thing could be

1334
00:46:07,450 --> 00:46:09,890
a huge setup- Very possible.

1335
00:46:10,170 --> 00:46:12,130
Designed to get rid of the nukes, get

1336
00:46:12,130 --> 00:46:14,670
rid of the Chinese, get rid of the

1337
00:46:14,670 --> 00:46:16,710
military guys that want to run the country

1338
00:46:16,710 --> 00:46:19,130
anyway, get rid of all of them and

1339
00:46:19,130 --> 00:46:22,110
really rearrange Iran for the benefit of the

1340
00:46:22,110 --> 00:46:24,550
guys, the conspirers who have been working with

1341
00:46:24,550 --> 00:46:26,330
Israel and the United States all along as

1342
00:46:26,330 --> 00:46:27,910
people in the Mideast.

1343
00:46:28,030 --> 00:46:30,050
We brought it up on our show numerous

1344
00:46:30,050 --> 00:46:30,490
times.

1345
00:46:30,710 --> 00:46:31,790
All the time they say this.

1346
00:46:32,130 --> 00:46:32,350
No, no.

1347
00:46:32,350 --> 00:46:34,150
All the time they're on working together.

1348
00:46:34,330 --> 00:46:34,930
All the time.

1349
00:46:35,830 --> 00:46:36,850
They say it all the time.

1350
00:46:37,270 --> 00:46:40,210
At least we should keep that in play

1351
00:46:40,210 --> 00:46:42,010
because I think it's still in play.

1352
00:46:42,630 --> 00:46:45,470
Let's go to our Secretary of State, Marco

1353
00:46:45,470 --> 00:46:46,030
Rubio.

1354
00:46:46,330 --> 00:46:48,250
This is- I'm liking Rubio more and

1355
00:46:48,250 --> 00:46:49,030
more, by the way.

1356
00:46:49,150 --> 00:46:50,550
This is the only guy that matters.

1357
00:46:50,610 --> 00:46:50,950
He doesn't smile anymore.

1358
00:46:51,250 --> 00:46:52,210
He's not funny.

1359
00:46:52,210 --> 00:46:53,810
No humor.

1360
00:46:54,230 --> 00:46:55,090
Humorless Marco.

1361
00:46:56,430 --> 00:47:00,090
He is probably the only voice that matters

1362
00:47:00,090 --> 00:47:03,650
right now because he runs the State Department.

1363
00:47:04,470 --> 00:47:05,410
He can talk.

1364
00:47:06,190 --> 00:47:07,410
And he's the head of intelligence.

1365
00:47:07,630 --> 00:47:09,210
Oh, no, he's the head of the-

1366
00:47:09,210 --> 00:47:10,370
He runs a lot.

1367
00:47:10,370 --> 00:47:11,250
He runs a lot.

1368
00:47:11,370 --> 00:47:12,730
He runs a lot of stuff.

1369
00:47:12,830 --> 00:47:15,250
Well, here he is on Face the Nation

1370
00:47:15,250 --> 00:47:15,730
with Margaret.

1371
00:47:16,090 --> 00:47:18,250
Mr. Secretary, I know it has been an

1372
00:47:18,250 --> 00:47:20,430
intense few hours.

1373
00:47:20,910 --> 00:47:23,330
But so far, it does not appear that

1374
00:47:23,330 --> 00:47:27,190
Iran has yet retaliated against the United States.

1375
00:47:27,570 --> 00:47:30,330
What intelligence do you have at this point

1376
00:47:30,330 --> 00:47:34,570
about their capabilities to respond, the intent of

1377
00:47:34,570 --> 00:47:35,430
their proxies?

1378
00:47:35,910 --> 00:47:37,970
Is there any kind of command and control

1379
00:47:37,970 --> 00:47:40,230
structure left to activate them?

1380
00:47:41,810 --> 00:47:43,850
Yeah, well, we'll see what Iran decides to

1381
00:47:43,850 --> 00:47:43,950
do.

1382
00:47:44,010 --> 00:47:45,430
I think they should choose the route of

1383
00:47:45,430 --> 00:47:45,690
peace.

1384
00:47:45,870 --> 00:47:47,010
We have been, we've done everything.

1385
00:47:47,090 --> 00:47:49,210
We have bent over backwards, okay, to create

1386
00:47:49,210 --> 00:47:50,070
a deal with these people.

1387
00:47:50,070 --> 00:47:53,050
Steve Woodcock has traveled the world extensively, met

1388
00:47:53,050 --> 00:47:53,390
with them.

1389
00:47:53,630 --> 00:47:54,930
Well, not even met with them, met through

1390
00:47:54,930 --> 00:47:57,030
the Omanis with them and discussed back and

1391
00:47:57,030 --> 00:47:57,250
forth.

1392
00:47:57,670 --> 00:47:59,830
We even put an offer to them that

1393
00:47:59,830 --> 00:48:01,470
they wanted elements of it in writing.

1394
00:48:01,590 --> 00:48:03,170
And we offered, it's a very generous offer,

1395
00:48:03,230 --> 00:48:03,670
by the way.

1396
00:48:03,970 --> 00:48:04,430
We've done it.

1397
00:48:04,510 --> 00:48:06,050
And we're prepared- Best price.

1398
00:48:06,230 --> 00:48:06,730
Right now.

1399
00:48:06,830 --> 00:48:08,090
If they call right now and say, we

1400
00:48:08,090 --> 00:48:09,430
want to meet, let's talk about this.

1401
00:48:09,530 --> 00:48:10,450
We're prepared to do that.

1402
00:48:10,510 --> 00:48:12,010
The president's made that clear from the very

1403
00:48:12,010 --> 00:48:12,370
beginning.

1404
00:48:12,530 --> 00:48:14,430
His preference is to deal with this issue

1405
00:48:14,430 --> 00:48:15,470
diplomatically.

1406
00:48:15,790 --> 00:48:17,370
But he also told them we had 60

1407
00:48:17,370 --> 00:48:19,390
days to make progress or something else was

1408
00:48:19,390 --> 00:48:19,850
going to happen.

1409
00:48:20,070 --> 00:48:21,750
And I think they thought they were dealing

1410
00:48:21,750 --> 00:48:23,330
with a different kind of leader, like the

1411
00:48:23,330 --> 00:48:25,130
kinds of leaders they've been playing games with

1412
00:48:25,130 --> 00:48:26,610
for the last 30 or 40 years.

1413
00:48:26,870 --> 00:48:28,390
And they found out that's not the case.

1414
00:48:28,790 --> 00:48:31,310
So this mission was a very precise mission.

1415
00:48:31,510 --> 00:48:33,490
It had three objectives, three nuclear sites.

1416
00:48:33,590 --> 00:48:34,650
It was not attack on Iran.

1417
00:48:34,790 --> 00:48:35,970
It was not an attack on the Iranian

1418
00:48:35,970 --> 00:48:36,450
people.

1419
00:48:36,950 --> 00:48:38,370
This wasn't a regime change move.

1420
00:48:38,530 --> 00:48:40,730
This was designed to degrade and or destroy

1421
00:48:40,730 --> 00:48:44,350
three nuclear sites related to their nuclear weaponization

1422
00:48:44,350 --> 00:48:45,170
ambitions.

1423
00:48:45,530 --> 00:48:47,230
And that was delivered on yesterday.

1424
00:48:47,230 --> 00:48:49,210
What happens next will now depend on what

1425
00:48:49,210 --> 00:48:50,430
Iran chooses to do next.

1426
00:48:50,750 --> 00:48:52,530
If they choose the path of diplomacy, we're

1427
00:48:52,530 --> 00:48:52,770
ready.

1428
00:48:53,010 --> 00:48:54,310
We can do a deal that's good for

1429
00:48:54,310 --> 00:48:56,590
them, the Iranian people and good for the

1430
00:48:56,590 --> 00:48:56,770
world.

1431
00:48:56,990 --> 00:48:58,950
If they choose another route, then there'll be

1432
00:48:58,950 --> 00:48:59,950
consequences for that.

1433
00:49:00,150 --> 00:49:02,810
So right away, and I'm quite sure that

1434
00:49:02,810 --> 00:49:06,150
there's still elements within the military industrial complex

1435
00:49:06,150 --> 00:49:08,010
who are like, well, no, we don't want

1436
00:49:08,010 --> 00:49:08,510
diplomacy.

1437
00:49:08,590 --> 00:49:09,610
We can't have that.

1438
00:49:09,770 --> 00:49:11,450
So they've launched this.

1439
00:49:11,910 --> 00:49:14,510
And this comes to me through the typical

1440
00:49:14,510 --> 00:49:15,190
channels.

1441
00:49:15,190 --> 00:49:16,770
And these people don't even know they're doing

1442
00:49:16,770 --> 00:49:17,390
it themselves.

1443
00:49:17,750 --> 00:49:21,050
Like, well, their trucks and stuff was getting

1444
00:49:21,050 --> 00:49:21,570
out.

1445
00:49:21,750 --> 00:49:23,490
It might not be over.

1446
00:49:23,830 --> 00:49:25,310
There may be some stuff still left.

1447
00:49:25,390 --> 00:49:26,310
We didn't get it all.

1448
00:49:26,390 --> 00:49:26,950
It didn't work.

1449
00:49:27,130 --> 00:49:28,830
What is the US assessment of how much

1450
00:49:28,830 --> 00:49:31,510
nuclear material at those sites was moved prior

1451
00:49:31,510 --> 00:49:32,330
to the attack?

1452
00:49:32,470 --> 00:49:34,830
There has been talk for days about bombing

1453
00:49:34,830 --> 00:49:35,390
of Fordow.

1454
00:49:37,070 --> 00:49:39,290
Well, look, no one will know for sure

1455
00:49:39,290 --> 00:49:40,770
for days, but I doubt they moved it

1456
00:49:40,770 --> 00:49:42,670
because you really can't move anything right now.

1457
00:49:42,670 --> 00:49:44,770
And they can't move anything right now inside

1458
00:49:44,770 --> 00:49:45,210
of Iran.

1459
00:49:45,330 --> 00:49:46,710
I mean, the minute a truck starts driving

1460
00:49:46,710 --> 00:49:48,590
somewhere, the Israelis have seen it and they've

1461
00:49:48,590 --> 00:49:50,210
targeted it and taken it out.

1462
00:49:50,430 --> 00:49:52,330
So our assessment is we have to assume

1463
00:49:52,330 --> 00:49:54,010
that that's a lot of 60 percent enriched

1464
00:49:54,010 --> 00:49:55,990
uranium buried deep under the ground there in

1465
00:49:55,990 --> 00:49:56,350
Isfahan.

1466
00:49:56,590 --> 00:49:57,650
And that really is the key.

1467
00:49:57,750 --> 00:49:59,130
What they should do with that is they

1468
00:49:59,130 --> 00:50:00,790
should bring it out of the ground and

1469
00:50:00,790 --> 00:50:01,350
turn it over.

1470
00:50:01,670 --> 00:50:03,470
Multiple countries around the world will take it

1471
00:50:03,470 --> 00:50:04,150
and down blend it.

1472
00:50:04,190 --> 00:50:05,210
That's what they should do with that.

1473
00:50:05,430 --> 00:50:07,630
And what they should do is say, we're

1474
00:50:07,630 --> 00:50:09,830
not going to have any enrichment capability in

1475
00:50:09,830 --> 00:50:10,290
our country.

1476
00:50:10,290 --> 00:50:11,670
Instead, what we're going to have is a

1477
00:50:11,670 --> 00:50:14,110
civil nuclear program like dozens of countries around

1478
00:50:14,110 --> 00:50:16,610
the world have, where we build reactors that

1479
00:50:16,610 --> 00:50:19,150
create electricity and we import enriched material.

1480
00:50:19,650 --> 00:50:20,570
And we've made very general.

1481
00:50:20,630 --> 00:50:21,750
I'm not going to get all the details

1482
00:50:21,750 --> 00:50:23,230
of the offers, but there are other avenues

1483
00:50:23,230 --> 00:50:24,790
here that would be acceptable to them.

1484
00:50:25,130 --> 00:50:27,910
Where do we import enriched materials from?

1485
00:50:28,390 --> 00:50:29,270
Who does that?

1486
00:50:29,330 --> 00:50:30,350
Is that is that us?

1487
00:50:30,450 --> 00:50:32,530
I mean, who who's the who's the boss

1488
00:50:32,530 --> 00:50:34,830
of the enriched material that is not as

1489
00:50:34,830 --> 00:50:37,950
we build reactors that create electricity and we

1490
00:50:37,950 --> 00:50:39,190
import enriched material.

1491
00:50:39,190 --> 00:50:40,590
And we've made very general.

1492
00:50:40,730 --> 00:50:41,750
I'm not going to get all the details

1493
00:50:41,750 --> 00:50:43,270
of the offers, but there are other avenues

1494
00:50:43,270 --> 00:50:45,130
here that would be acceptable to them if

1495
00:50:45,130 --> 00:50:46,670
that's what they wanted, if what they want

1496
00:50:46,670 --> 00:50:48,790
is a civil, peaceful nuclear program.

1497
00:50:49,050 --> 00:50:50,490
The route has always been there.

1498
00:50:50,770 --> 00:50:53,150
The problem is that everything they're demanding has

1499
00:50:53,150 --> 00:50:54,690
nothing to do with a peaceful program.

1500
00:50:55,190 --> 00:50:56,570
They are all the things you would want

1501
00:50:56,570 --> 00:50:58,410
if you want to retain the option of

1502
00:50:58,410 --> 00:51:00,910
one day weaponizing the program, which has been

1503
00:51:00,910 --> 00:51:01,650
their clear intent.

1504
00:51:01,750 --> 00:51:02,990
To me, that's indisputable.

1505
00:51:03,050 --> 00:51:05,170
I follow this issue for 15 years, including

1506
00:51:05,170 --> 00:51:06,950
the intelligence on it for 15 years.

1507
00:51:07,270 --> 00:51:08,310
OK, I have followed it.

1508
00:51:08,310 --> 00:51:10,030
And the intelligences are assessments.

1509
00:51:10,210 --> 00:51:11,170
And sometimes they've been wrong.

1510
00:51:11,250 --> 00:51:12,730
I've seen them revised multiple times.

1511
00:51:13,010 --> 00:51:14,910
These guys want a nuclear weapon one day.

1512
00:51:14,970 --> 00:51:16,390
OK, to that point, it isn't going to

1513
00:51:16,390 --> 00:51:16,710
happen.

1514
00:51:16,830 --> 00:51:18,010
Not while Donald Trump is president.

1515
00:51:18,290 --> 00:51:21,070
One day, he said, oops, Marco, don't give

1516
00:51:21,070 --> 00:51:21,370
it away.

1517
00:51:22,370 --> 00:51:25,350
Let's address the regime change, because that's another

1518
00:51:25,350 --> 00:51:27,750
thing that just got launched into the ether.

1519
00:51:28,050 --> 00:51:29,730
As far as I know, not by the

1520
00:51:29,730 --> 00:51:33,350
administration, not by the president, but I think

1521
00:51:33,350 --> 00:51:35,730
by people who are very upset and compare

1522
00:51:35,730 --> 00:51:39,030
this to the weapons of mass destruction, the

1523
00:51:39,030 --> 00:51:41,650
aluminum tubes we're being lied to.

1524
00:51:41,890 --> 00:51:42,810
We're all going to die.

1525
00:51:42,930 --> 00:51:44,130
There's going to be a war.

1526
00:51:44,330 --> 00:51:47,390
Trump promised us no war, no never ending

1527
00:51:47,390 --> 00:51:48,090
wars.

1528
00:51:48,910 --> 00:51:51,130
And with that comes regime change.

1529
00:51:51,310 --> 00:51:52,910
You've said this is not about regime change,

1530
00:51:53,070 --> 00:51:54,870
but you were describing a regime that you

1531
00:51:54,870 --> 00:51:57,210
have said for decades, I mean, for upwards

1532
00:51:57,210 --> 00:51:59,270
of 40 years, has chanted death to America,

1533
00:51:59,590 --> 00:52:01,950
has all the things you just described.

1534
00:52:01,950 --> 00:52:04,710
Isn't a diplomatic deal with them a lifeline?

1535
00:52:05,510 --> 00:52:07,110
Aren't you offering to negotiate with the same

1536
00:52:07,110 --> 00:52:08,810
people you're saying did all these things?

1537
00:52:08,910 --> 00:52:12,470
So therefore, are you actually looking for regime

1538
00:52:12,470 --> 00:52:12,890
change?

1539
00:52:14,470 --> 00:52:15,530
That misses the point.

1540
00:52:15,750 --> 00:52:17,450
I don't like that they chant those things.

1541
00:52:17,590 --> 00:52:18,830
But one thing is that they chant those

1542
00:52:18,830 --> 00:52:19,070
things.

1543
00:52:19,190 --> 00:52:20,810
Another thing is that they chant those things

1544
00:52:20,810 --> 00:52:23,430
and they have terror proxies are all over

1545
00:52:23,430 --> 00:52:25,470
the world and they have long range missiles

1546
00:52:25,470 --> 00:52:27,090
that can reach the United States one day.

1547
00:52:27,210 --> 00:52:29,170
And they have the potential to be one

1548
00:52:29,170 --> 00:52:30,550
step away from a nuclear weapon.

1549
00:52:31,330 --> 00:52:33,190
Yeah, well, one day it could be tomorrow,

1550
00:52:33,330 --> 00:52:34,350
could be a week from now, could be

1551
00:52:34,350 --> 00:52:35,010
a month from now.

1552
00:52:35,330 --> 00:52:36,590
All it takes is the flip of a

1553
00:52:36,590 --> 00:52:36,810
switch.

1554
00:52:37,030 --> 00:52:38,050
By the way, they're not going to broadcast

1555
00:52:38,050 --> 00:52:38,890
that to the world.

1556
00:52:39,130 --> 00:52:40,350
By the time we figure out that they're

1557
00:52:40,350 --> 00:52:41,970
doing it, you have all the pieces in

1558
00:52:41,970 --> 00:52:42,510
place, OK?

1559
00:52:42,710 --> 00:52:44,450
It's like you have a gun here and

1560
00:52:44,450 --> 00:52:44,930
the ammunition.

1561
00:52:45,710 --> 00:52:46,790
It only takes one second.

1562
00:52:47,110 --> 00:52:48,390
We have other targets that we could hit,

1563
00:52:48,430 --> 00:52:49,870
but we achieved our objective.

1564
00:52:50,050 --> 00:52:51,890
The primary targets we were interested in are

1565
00:52:51,890 --> 00:52:53,990
the ones that were struck tonight in devastating

1566
00:52:53,990 --> 00:52:54,450
fashion.

1567
00:52:54,870 --> 00:52:55,970
The ones that were struck, I guess, yeah,

1568
00:52:55,990 --> 00:52:58,430
tonight over there, their time and devastating fashion.

1569
00:52:58,590 --> 00:52:59,630
And we've achieved that objective.

1570
00:52:59,630 --> 00:53:02,490
There are no planned military operations right now

1571
00:53:02,490 --> 00:53:05,950
against Iran unless unless they mess around and

1572
00:53:05,950 --> 00:53:07,710
they attack American or American interests.

1573
00:53:08,030 --> 00:53:09,030
Then they're going to have a problem.

1574
00:53:09,270 --> 00:53:10,590
F.A.F.O. Then they're going to

1575
00:53:10,590 --> 00:53:11,030
have a problem.

1576
00:53:11,030 --> 00:53:12,570
I'm not going to broadcast what those problems

1577
00:53:12,570 --> 00:53:14,470
are, but suffice it to say, know this.

1578
00:53:14,670 --> 00:53:16,650
The United States flew halfway around the world,

1579
00:53:16,770 --> 00:53:18,630
right into the heart of Iran, over their

1580
00:53:18,630 --> 00:53:19,810
most sensitive locations.

1581
00:53:20,530 --> 00:53:21,830
These things got rocked.

1582
00:53:21,850 --> 00:53:23,770
And then we left and we were out

1583
00:53:23,770 --> 00:53:24,490
of their airspace.

1584
00:53:24,830 --> 00:53:26,310
We were over the ocean before they figured

1585
00:53:26,310 --> 00:53:27,030
out what had happened.

1586
00:53:27,230 --> 00:53:28,290
And there are plenty of other targets.

1587
00:53:28,310 --> 00:53:29,070
We don't want to do that.

1588
00:53:29,070 --> 00:53:30,030
That's not our preference.

1589
00:53:30,210 --> 00:53:31,390
We want peace deals with them.

1590
00:53:31,590 --> 00:53:32,850
And that's up to them to decide.

1591
00:53:33,110 --> 00:53:33,930
They got rocked.

1592
00:53:34,030 --> 00:53:34,730
We rocked them.

1593
00:53:34,810 --> 00:53:35,490
They got rocked.

1594
00:53:35,610 --> 00:53:37,410
So and now we get down to the

1595
00:53:37,410 --> 00:53:39,870
nitty gritty, because this is really what the

1596
00:53:39,870 --> 00:53:40,610
issue is about.

1597
00:53:40,650 --> 00:53:43,070
If you look at the price of oil,

1598
00:53:43,110 --> 00:53:44,930
who determines the price of oil, who is

1599
00:53:44,930 --> 00:53:46,650
selling the oil, who is selling the oil

1600
00:53:46,650 --> 00:53:51,670
mainly to China or any type of energy

1601
00:53:51,670 --> 00:53:56,690
stuff, coal, oil, gas, etc.

1602
00:53:57,590 --> 00:54:00,630
And the shipping routes, which is what we

1603
00:54:00,630 --> 00:54:03,770
use when we sell our stuff and we

1604
00:54:03,770 --> 00:54:04,610
control the oil.

1605
00:54:04,830 --> 00:54:06,210
You said defend American interests.

1606
00:54:06,310 --> 00:54:08,510
Would the United States military take action to

1607
00:54:08,510 --> 00:54:10,970
keep, for example, the transit point, the Strait

1608
00:54:10,970 --> 00:54:12,910
of Hormuz open if there are attacks on

1609
00:54:12,910 --> 00:54:13,910
oil installations?

1610
00:54:13,910 --> 00:54:16,470
Would the United States consider that a direct

1611
00:54:16,470 --> 00:54:18,310
act by the state, even if it was

1612
00:54:18,310 --> 00:54:19,230
carried out by a militia?

1613
00:54:20,930 --> 00:54:22,350
Well, I'm not going to take options away

1614
00:54:22,350 --> 00:54:22,890
from the president.

1615
00:54:22,990 --> 00:54:25,030
That's not something we're talking about right now

1616
00:54:25,030 --> 00:54:25,910
in terms of being immediate.

1617
00:54:25,910 --> 00:54:27,230
But if they do that, the first people

1618
00:54:27,230 --> 00:54:28,390
that should be angry about it are the

1619
00:54:28,390 --> 00:54:30,050
Chinese government because they take a lot of

1620
00:54:30,050 --> 00:54:31,030
their oil comes through there.

1621
00:54:31,250 --> 00:54:32,390
So they should be the first ones that

1622
00:54:32,390 --> 00:54:33,890
are saying if they mind the Straits of

1623
00:54:33,890 --> 00:54:35,630
Hormuz, the Chinese are going to pay a

1624
00:54:35,630 --> 00:54:37,290
huge price and every other country in the

1625
00:54:37,290 --> 00:54:38,330
world is going to pay a huge price.

1626
00:54:38,430 --> 00:54:38,930
We will, too.

1627
00:54:39,110 --> 00:54:40,350
They'll have some impact on us.

1628
00:54:40,570 --> 00:54:41,950
It'll have a lot more impact on the

1629
00:54:41,950 --> 00:54:43,830
rest of the world, a lot more impact

1630
00:54:43,830 --> 00:54:44,510
on the rest of the world.

1631
00:54:44,570 --> 00:54:45,910
There would be a suicidal move on their

1632
00:54:45,910 --> 00:54:47,630
part, because I think the whole world would

1633
00:54:47,630 --> 00:54:48,870
come against them if they did that.

1634
00:54:49,290 --> 00:54:51,310
Will the Chinese and Russians stop trading with

1635
00:54:51,310 --> 00:54:51,650
Iran?

1636
00:54:53,550 --> 00:54:54,950
You have to ask the Chinese and the

1637
00:54:54,950 --> 00:54:55,170
Russians.

1638
00:54:55,170 --> 00:54:57,530
I mean, they're getting, you know, they're well,

1639
00:54:57,550 --> 00:54:59,350
the Russians are getting a bunch of these,

1640
00:54:59,710 --> 00:55:01,270
you know, these drones that they're using are

1641
00:55:01,270 --> 00:55:02,030
coming from Iran.

1642
00:55:02,190 --> 00:55:02,430
Exactly.

1643
00:55:02,590 --> 00:55:03,170
They're coming from Iran.

1644
00:55:03,310 --> 00:55:05,310
So I saw the foreign minister, instead of

1645
00:55:05,310 --> 00:55:07,030
meeting with Steve Woodcoff, is headed to Moscow

1646
00:55:07,030 --> 00:55:08,590
to meet with Putin, which was a pre

1647
00:55:08,590 --> 00:55:10,190
scheduled meeting, which is fine.

1648
00:55:10,290 --> 00:55:11,070
You know, they can go meet.

1649
00:55:11,550 --> 00:55:13,690
And, you know, the Russians at the end

1650
00:55:13,690 --> 00:55:15,190
of the day, I mean, they buy drones

1651
00:55:15,190 --> 00:55:15,630
from them.

1652
00:55:16,110 --> 00:55:17,710
But look, this is very simple.

1653
00:55:18,130 --> 00:55:20,790
They we want to have an agreement with

1654
00:55:20,790 --> 00:55:22,730
them, a diplomatic agreement in which they have

1655
00:55:22,730 --> 00:55:24,790
a civil nuclear program, but are not enriching

1656
00:55:24,790 --> 00:55:27,290
and don't have weapons grade material or weapons

1657
00:55:27,290 --> 00:55:28,730
capabilities laying around.

1658
00:55:28,910 --> 00:55:29,550
It's that simple.

1659
00:55:30,110 --> 00:55:32,070
I thought it was so hilarious on DH

1660
00:55:32,070 --> 00:55:35,190
Unplugged, which airs live every Tuesday, and you

1661
00:55:35,190 --> 00:55:37,130
can listen to it on the podcast on

1662
00:55:37,130 --> 00:55:40,790
Wednesdays, that Horowitz had after 10 years had

1663
00:55:40,790 --> 00:55:42,570
pulled all of his clients out of oil.

1664
00:55:42,610 --> 00:55:43,670
And then this happens.

1665
00:55:45,530 --> 00:55:46,490
Oil spikes.

1666
00:55:47,670 --> 00:55:48,190
Oh, wait.

1667
00:55:49,570 --> 00:55:51,370
Crapola, you know.

1668
00:55:52,730 --> 00:55:53,550
OK, you're back.

1669
00:55:53,670 --> 00:55:54,330
Sorry about that.

1670
00:55:55,250 --> 00:55:55,790
Could you hear me?

1671
00:55:56,090 --> 00:56:02,300
So the you didn't.

1672
00:56:02,500 --> 00:56:05,780
Unfortunately, I wish there was a clip of

1673
00:56:05,780 --> 00:56:08,800
Rubio from this morning where he says this

1674
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,720
makes this comment about meeting face to face

1675
00:56:11,720 --> 00:56:13,580
and not passing notes back and forth and

1676
00:56:13,580 --> 00:56:15,680
having all these middlemen like third graders.

1677
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,220
And it's just a very funny comment, because

1678
00:56:18,220 --> 00:56:20,300
I guess we haven't really had a meeting

1679
00:56:20,300 --> 00:56:21,000
with the Russians.

1680
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,860
It's always they have to write down on

1681
00:56:23,860 --> 00:56:25,680
a note and the Omani's take it to

1682
00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:27,980
another suite in the hotel and then they

1683
00:56:27,980 --> 00:56:29,320
take a note back.

1684
00:56:29,780 --> 00:56:30,220
Crap.

1685
00:56:31,220 --> 00:56:32,940
Yes, bullcrap, we can't do that.

1686
00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:33,200
No.

1687
00:56:33,420 --> 00:56:35,720
Well, so here's the final message from from

1688
00:56:35,720 --> 00:56:39,580
our our our secretary of state.

1689
00:56:39,720 --> 00:56:41,080
When did the president make this decision?

1690
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:42,360
Because he said he was giving two more

1691
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:43,780
weeks of diplomacy on Friday.

1692
00:56:43,780 --> 00:56:45,580
And on Friday, these jets took off.

1693
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:49,400
Well, the president retains the opportunity to pull

1694
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:51,000
out of this at any moment, including 10

1695
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:51,640
minutes before.

1696
00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:53,640
But the president ordered options.

1697
00:56:53,860 --> 00:56:55,960
The president look, the decision, in my view,

1698
00:56:55,980 --> 00:56:57,280
was made when he wrote a letter to

1699
00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:58,680
the supreme leader and he said over the

1700
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:00,520
next 60 days, we want to do a

1701
00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:02,020
deal with you and solve this problem of

1702
00:57:02,020 --> 00:57:03,000
nuclear weaponization.

1703
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:04,220
Yeah, I want to do it peacefully.

1704
00:57:04,700 --> 00:57:06,760
After 60 days, we don't see progress or

1705
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:07,420
it isn't solved.

1706
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:08,660
We have other alternatives.

1707
00:57:08,820 --> 00:57:09,860
He made that very clear.

1708
00:57:09,940 --> 00:57:11,360
I think what some people are struggling with

1709
00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:12,920
here is that we today have a president

1710
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:14,240
who does what he says he's going to

1711
00:57:14,240 --> 00:57:14,460
do.

1712
00:57:14,460 --> 00:57:15,480
And that's what happened here.

1713
00:57:15,660 --> 00:57:16,480
And that was the point.

1714
00:57:17,340 --> 00:57:18,580
That was the point.

1715
00:57:18,900 --> 00:57:20,940
The way she tries to interrupt him.

1716
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:21,900
Yeah, that was good.

1717
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:23,340
He's hard to block.

1718
00:57:23,740 --> 00:57:24,720
Yeah, he's good.

1719
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:29,120
I actually like a lot of people thought

1720
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:31,040
it was a bad choice because he's like

1721
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:31,920
a, you know.

1722
00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:37,380
For various reasons, I've enjoyed him as a

1723
00:57:37,380 --> 00:57:38,320
secretary of state.

1724
00:57:38,580 --> 00:57:39,700
You know, he's entertaining.

1725
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:41,780
He could be funny if he wanted to

1726
00:57:41,780 --> 00:57:41,920
be.

1727
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:44,300
We know that from the past, but he's

1728
00:57:44,300 --> 00:57:47,520
decided to go with this very serious style.

1729
00:57:47,900 --> 00:57:49,740
You know who was a bad choice?

1730
00:57:51,420 --> 00:57:53,700
Our ambassador to the United Nations.

1731
00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:58,440
Who is that?

1732
00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:00,460
Because Stefanik was going to be the ambassador,

1733
00:58:00,660 --> 00:58:02,000
which I thought would have been a good

1734
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:02,320
choice.

1735
00:58:02,500 --> 00:58:03,160
I think it is.

1736
00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:05,380
No, no, she got kicked back.

1737
00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:06,940
Ambassador UN.

1738
00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:08,740
Let me see who became it.

1739
00:58:12,570 --> 00:58:14,150
Um, Madam Ambassador.

1740
00:58:15,990 --> 00:58:16,770
What's her name?

1741
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:21,840
Oh, Dorothy Shay.

1742
00:58:23,300 --> 00:58:26,760
Man, Dorothy, you need to update your picture

1743
00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:29,710
on your Wikipedia.

1744
00:58:30,250 --> 00:58:31,090
So what's wrong with her?

1745
00:58:31,230 --> 00:58:32,350
I've never heard of her.

1746
00:58:32,890 --> 00:58:33,570
Well, let's see.

1747
00:58:33,690 --> 00:58:35,410
I know they wanted Stefanik in there, but

1748
00:58:35,410 --> 00:58:36,890
then they didn't have enough people in the

1749
00:58:36,890 --> 00:58:37,810
House of Representatives.

1750
00:58:37,810 --> 00:58:40,170
They didn't want to let, you know, Kathy

1751
00:58:40,170 --> 00:58:42,790
Hochul appoint some Democrat.

1752
00:58:43,130 --> 00:58:44,410
And so they had to keep her in

1753
00:58:44,410 --> 00:58:45,430
the House of Representatives.

1754
00:58:45,550 --> 00:58:47,910
They pulled her nomination and she was, you

1755
00:58:47,910 --> 00:58:49,630
know, she wanted to do the job.

1756
00:58:50,490 --> 00:58:51,310
Well, let's see.

1757
00:58:51,410 --> 00:58:52,690
What did she do previously?

1758
00:58:54,070 --> 00:58:55,530
I think it's just a stand in.

1759
00:58:55,670 --> 00:58:56,810
Yeah, well, she's no good.

1760
00:58:56,930 --> 00:58:58,310
Listen to this gaffe.

1761
00:58:58,910 --> 00:59:02,310
Israel's government has also spread chaos, terror and

1762
00:59:02,310 --> 00:59:04,050
suffering throughout the region.

1763
00:59:04,670 --> 00:59:05,110
What?

1764
00:59:05,110 --> 00:59:05,450
What?

1765
00:59:06,370 --> 00:59:09,350
Iran's government has also spread chaos, terror and

1766
00:59:09,350 --> 00:59:10,490
suffering throughout the region.

1767
00:59:10,870 --> 00:59:13,150
She does a do over like, like it's

1768
00:59:13,150 --> 00:59:14,250
going to get edited out.

1769
00:59:14,330 --> 00:59:15,550
Oh, no, no, no.

1770
00:59:15,610 --> 00:59:16,490
You said Israel.

1771
00:59:16,590 --> 00:59:17,250
You meant Iran.

1772
00:59:17,850 --> 00:59:20,610
Iran's government has also spread chaos, terror.

1773
00:59:21,750 --> 00:59:23,950
Or is it just the truth coming out?

1774
00:59:25,170 --> 00:59:27,330
Well, I have a, if you want to

1775
00:59:27,330 --> 00:59:29,230
play, I have a clip similar to that.

1776
00:59:29,890 --> 00:59:33,390
Um, in terms of somebody, just the stupidest

1777
00:59:33,390 --> 00:59:33,770
thing.

1778
00:59:33,770 --> 00:59:36,710
I mean, that's like saying, you know, the

1779
00:59:36,710 --> 00:59:39,730
the vaccine gas we heard during Covid.

1780
00:59:40,610 --> 00:59:42,570
Instead of saying this virus is killing people,

1781
00:59:42,670 --> 00:59:44,250
this vaccine is killing people.

1782
00:59:44,470 --> 00:59:45,470
The vaccine is killing people.

1783
00:59:45,490 --> 00:59:46,870
It's a truth coming out thing, man.

1784
00:59:46,890 --> 00:59:47,570
That's what it is.

1785
00:59:47,750 --> 00:59:50,330
So they so they just changed the topic

1786
00:59:50,330 --> 00:59:50,950
for a second.

1787
00:59:51,130 --> 00:59:51,270
We're good.

1788
00:59:51,470 --> 00:59:53,730
I'm sure we get back to the Iran

1789
00:59:53,730 --> 00:59:54,670
conflagration.

1790
00:59:54,870 --> 00:59:57,690
But so they let this guy, the guy

1791
00:59:57,690 --> 01:00:00,830
that was in Louisiana, Mahmoud Khalil.

1792
01:00:00,830 --> 01:00:04,590
Yes, they and and what a political move

1793
01:00:04,590 --> 01:00:07,210
with AOC walking out of the of the

1794
01:00:07,210 --> 01:00:08,170
airport with him.

1795
01:00:08,970 --> 01:00:10,110
Oh, it's horrible.

1796
01:00:10,510 --> 01:00:12,570
And AOC is just digging a hole for

1797
01:00:12,570 --> 01:00:12,790
herself.

1798
01:00:13,050 --> 01:00:14,130
Yeah, that's not a good look.

1799
01:00:14,390 --> 01:00:15,410
So they had this.

1800
01:00:15,510 --> 01:00:16,130
They had a quote.

1801
01:00:16,190 --> 01:00:18,330
This is from, again, from Al Jazeera.

1802
01:00:18,830 --> 01:00:20,790
And you have to listen carefully to what

1803
01:00:20,790 --> 01:00:21,570
he says.

1804
01:00:21,770 --> 01:00:23,430
This is him yakking away.

1805
01:00:23,510 --> 01:00:24,590
It's a very short clip.

1806
01:00:25,190 --> 01:00:26,990
Uh, how long is this clip?

1807
01:00:27,130 --> 01:00:27,510
Who am I?

1808
01:00:27,550 --> 01:00:28,950
Who am I looking for here?

1809
01:00:28,950 --> 01:00:32,330
It's a it says H.K.A.H.

1810
01:00:32,550 --> 01:00:33,030
Ah, yes.

1811
01:00:33,210 --> 01:00:33,410
OK.

1812
01:00:34,670 --> 01:00:35,770
Al, I'm sorry.

1813
01:00:35,950 --> 01:00:37,310
OK, 27 second clip.

1814
01:00:37,710 --> 01:00:39,750
Listen carefully to his words.

1815
01:00:40,150 --> 01:00:42,630
Khalil took part in protests at Columbia University,

1816
01:00:42,970 --> 01:00:45,490
one of many across college campuses last year

1817
01:00:45,490 --> 01:00:47,210
in support of Palestinian people.

1818
01:00:47,810 --> 01:00:50,630
The U.S. government is funding this genocide

1819
01:00:51,350 --> 01:00:54,710
and Columbia University is investing in this genocide.

1820
01:00:55,110 --> 01:00:56,710
This is why I was protesting.

1821
01:00:57,350 --> 01:00:59,170
This is why I will continue to protest

1822
01:00:59,170 --> 01:01:00,230
with every one of you.

1823
01:01:00,410 --> 01:01:03,130
Not only if they threaten me with detention,

1824
01:01:03,730 --> 01:01:05,610
even if they would kill me, I would

1825
01:01:05,610 --> 01:01:07,270
still speak up for Palestine.

1826
01:01:07,430 --> 01:01:09,930
Yeah, I thought that was interesting, too.

1827
01:01:10,270 --> 01:01:12,170
Yeah, even if you kill me, I'm going

1828
01:01:12,170 --> 01:01:12,490
to speak.

1829
01:01:12,530 --> 01:01:13,470
I'm going to keep speaking.

1830
01:01:14,030 --> 01:01:15,170
How does that work?

1831
01:01:16,690 --> 01:01:18,730
Now, what is going to happen with this

1832
01:01:18,730 --> 01:01:18,950
guy?

1833
01:01:19,010 --> 01:01:21,450
Because it was because of a judge, another

1834
01:01:21,450 --> 01:01:24,930
federal judge that they said, oh, you can't

1835
01:01:24,930 --> 01:01:25,410
do this.

1836
01:01:25,410 --> 01:01:27,790
I love how the Guardian positions it.

1837
01:01:27,910 --> 01:01:28,870
Let me see if I still have that

1838
01:01:28,870 --> 01:01:29,290
article.

1839
01:01:29,750 --> 01:01:31,970
The Guardian just is like continuous.

1840
01:01:32,150 --> 01:01:32,850
Oh, yeah, here it is.

1841
01:01:33,370 --> 01:01:33,950
Got the Guardian.

1842
01:01:36,290 --> 01:01:39,230
Columbia graduate and legal U.S. resident.

1843
01:01:39,750 --> 01:01:41,610
I like the way they always do that.

1844
01:01:41,710 --> 01:01:43,310
Yeah, and they keep saying that, keep saying

1845
01:01:43,310 --> 01:01:43,490
that.

1846
01:01:43,570 --> 01:01:46,270
But, you know, even a green card, there

1847
01:01:46,270 --> 01:01:47,970
are kind of restrictions on that.

1848
01:01:48,530 --> 01:01:53,420
You can't do certain things, including just getting

1849
01:01:53,420 --> 01:01:53,940
arrested.

1850
01:01:56,350 --> 01:01:58,310
I still think the guy's some sort of

1851
01:01:58,310 --> 01:01:58,750
plant.

1852
01:01:59,990 --> 01:02:00,590
Well, we'll see.

1853
01:02:00,770 --> 01:02:02,550
Well, he didn't have the kiff yet before,

1854
01:02:02,690 --> 01:02:03,550
but now he does.

1855
01:02:04,310 --> 01:02:06,230
Yeah, he never used to wear that thing.

1856
01:02:06,850 --> 01:02:08,250
And then as soon as he comes out

1857
01:02:08,250 --> 01:02:09,950
of jail, they're walking him all over the

1858
01:02:09,950 --> 01:02:10,110
place.

1859
01:02:10,210 --> 01:02:11,290
Where did it come from?

1860
01:02:11,330 --> 01:02:12,830
He's wearing it all over like he had

1861
01:02:12,830 --> 01:02:13,430
it in jail.

1862
01:02:13,810 --> 01:02:15,490
No, AOC gave it to him.

1863
01:02:15,710 --> 01:02:18,070
Yeah, AOC gave it to him.

1864
01:02:18,250 --> 01:02:18,410
Yeah.

1865
01:02:18,490 --> 01:02:19,210
Hello, Khalil.

1866
01:02:19,530 --> 01:02:20,550
Yeah, she was wearing one.

1867
01:02:23,860 --> 01:02:25,700
I'm like Roy, Roy, Roy Kent.

1868
01:02:25,700 --> 01:02:30,180
Oh, let me see.

1869
01:02:30,380 --> 01:02:31,860
Talking about people like her.

1870
01:02:31,940 --> 01:02:32,960
Let's listen to this clip.

1871
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:35,760
This is from Fox.

1872
01:02:36,260 --> 01:02:40,720
This is Iran bombing naysayers.

1873
01:02:40,740 --> 01:02:42,140
This is about the people that are going

1874
01:02:42,140 --> 01:02:43,680
to be bitching and moaning about it.

1875
01:02:44,020 --> 01:02:44,680
What people say.

1876
01:02:44,780 --> 01:02:46,980
We've already seen AOC come out and say,

1877
01:02:47,100 --> 01:02:48,160
you know, this was terrible.

1878
01:02:48,260 --> 01:02:48,900
What is happening?

1879
01:02:48,980 --> 01:02:50,020
This is an escalation.

1880
01:02:50,660 --> 01:02:52,200
You know, when I was a surgery resident,

1881
01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:53,640
I always learned from everybody.

1882
01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:55,540
I learned who to be like and I

1883
01:02:55,540 --> 01:02:56,960
learned who not to be like.

1884
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:58,960
And so I think this is going to

1885
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:01,820
be a very similar moment where the masks

1886
01:03:01,820 --> 01:03:03,140
are going to come off and we're going

1887
01:03:03,140 --> 01:03:04,840
to be able to see in this moment

1888
01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:08,360
of moral clarity who is morally clear and

1889
01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:09,280
who is confused.

1890
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:09,900
Yeah.

1891
01:03:09,940 --> 01:03:12,360
And I'm wondering, Emily Austin, if Emily Austin

1892
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:13,020
is still with us.

1893
01:03:13,100 --> 01:03:14,960
I'm wondering, Emily, the people you talk to,

1894
01:03:15,380 --> 01:03:16,840
was there anybody who was disappointed?

1895
01:03:16,980 --> 01:03:17,940
Anybody who said, you know what?

1896
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:19,700
There's probably a better way to do this

1897
01:03:19,700 --> 01:03:21,320
than the United States going in and knocking

1898
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:22,380
out their nuclear plans.

1899
01:03:22,380 --> 01:03:24,920
My guess is probably of those that you

1900
01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:26,040
came in contact with.

1901
01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:28,420
No, but you tell me.

1902
01:03:28,940 --> 01:03:30,480
No, that was a trick question.

1903
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:31,440
But the answer is no.

1904
01:03:32,020 --> 01:03:33,860
I feel like the best proof that tonight's

1905
01:03:33,860 --> 01:03:36,140
mission was ultimately a success is we can

1906
01:03:36,140 --> 01:03:37,840
see who's upset about it.

1907
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:41,820
Elizabeth Warren, AOC, Rashida, Elon, Chuck Schumer.

1908
01:03:42,340 --> 01:03:43,760
This is the litmus test.

1909
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:46,480
And a more serious note, a reoccurring theme

1910
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:48,100
that we're discussing tonight is what can we

1911
01:03:48,100 --> 01:03:49,160
expect in retaliation?

1912
01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,820
Now, I want to point out, needless to

1913
01:03:51,820 --> 01:03:55,400
say, that Iran's military, militarily they've been weakened.

1914
01:03:55,980 --> 01:03:57,800
However, I think it's important that we take

1915
01:03:57,800 --> 01:03:59,340
note of what they are capable of doing

1916
01:03:59,340 --> 01:04:00,160
in retaliation.

1917
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:03,540
I believe that what they can do is

1918
01:04:03,540 --> 01:04:06,060
a cyber strike, cyber attack, something of that

1919
01:04:06,060 --> 01:04:08,340
sort, because militarily they're going to need a

1920
01:04:08,340 --> 01:04:11,880
couple of weeks to recoup, re-strategize.

1921
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:13,260
They're very, very weak right now.

1922
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:15,800
But like everyone else said, I'll echo it,

1923
01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:17,520
they're not going to let their ego be

1924
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:19,680
humiliated on such a public stage and meet

1925
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:20,740
at the negotiating table.

1926
01:04:20,820 --> 01:04:22,280
I think we know they'd rather die a

1927
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:23,420
martyr than take that route.

1928
01:04:23,820 --> 01:04:24,660
Investigate that woman.

1929
01:04:24,900 --> 01:04:25,860
Farrah investigation.

1930
01:04:27,260 --> 01:04:27,680
Right away.

1931
01:04:27,860 --> 01:04:30,040
She's, she's on the gut feel all the

1932
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:31,620
time, this gal.

1933
01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:35,360
And she's a, she's also wearing a giant

1934
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,600
cross of David, or David star.

1935
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:40,000
Yeah, see, there you go.

1936
01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:43,440
And she's, well, she doesn't hide it.

1937
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:44,460
And she's...

1938
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:46,860
Yeah, but that's not the same as filling

1939
01:04:46,860 --> 01:04:47,800
out your Farrah form.

1940
01:04:48,140 --> 01:04:51,400
Gen Z journalist.

1941
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:53,660
And she likes to brag about that too.

1942
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:57,420
Well, ultimately this is a, and maybe that's

1943
01:04:57,420 --> 01:04:59,640
part of why he was, sounded so sad,

1944
01:04:59,660 --> 01:05:01,260
but this is a big gamble for the

1945
01:05:01,260 --> 01:05:04,700
president because of his promise of no forever

1946
01:05:04,700 --> 01:05:07,240
wars, which has kind of morphed into no

1947
01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:09,020
wars, ending the stupid wars.

1948
01:05:09,900 --> 01:05:13,080
Either this ends it or it kicks off

1949
01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:14,800
something more.

1950
01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:16,640
And that becomes very irritating.

1951
01:05:18,140 --> 01:05:19,320
That could be irritating.

1952
01:05:19,340 --> 01:05:20,700
And that would be very, that would be

1953
01:05:20,700 --> 01:05:21,540
very bad.

1954
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:23,560
But, but if we go with the thesis

1955
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:27,620
that we ourselves have, have developed, which is

1956
01:05:27,620 --> 01:05:32,900
the China thesis and the rigged theaters thesis,

1957
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:34,560
it should be fine.

1958
01:05:34,900 --> 01:05:37,300
Well, yeah, but they've got to, it's a

1959
01:05:37,300 --> 01:05:38,040
certain point.

1960
01:05:38,280 --> 01:05:40,420
Why doesn't he just tell the American people

1961
01:05:40,420 --> 01:05:42,940
this is, you know, China is the issue

1962
01:05:42,940 --> 01:05:43,220
here.

1963
01:05:44,740 --> 01:05:46,740
We've, we've, you, we can't use this.

1964
01:05:46,740 --> 01:05:49,420
He wants to tell China, Oh, like China's

1965
01:05:49,420 --> 01:05:49,980
stupid.

1966
01:05:50,700 --> 01:05:51,360
Like, huh?

1967
01:05:51,380 --> 01:05:52,740
I wonder what that was about.

1968
01:05:54,140 --> 01:05:56,660
Well, maybe you have something there, but maybe

1969
01:05:56,660 --> 01:06:00,320
that I, it's just, he wants China to

1970
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:01,240
think that he's stupid.

1971
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:03,280
I'm sure they know he's not stupid.

1972
01:06:05,200 --> 01:06:06,640
Well, I don't know that they know that

1973
01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:09,480
because they, the Democrats keep saying that he

1974
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:11,340
is, he's stupid and he's Hitler and he's

1975
01:06:11,340 --> 01:06:14,060
a, and he's a dictator and all the

1976
01:06:14,060 --> 01:06:14,640
other stuff.

1977
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:16,120
It's got to be confusing.

1978
01:06:17,180 --> 01:06:18,960
Well, if he, I mean, not everybody's got

1979
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,560
some clarity like we might have in our,

1980
01:06:21,740 --> 01:06:24,200
in our producers all seem to have to

1981
01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:25,940
where they're not freaking out about everything.

1982
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:28,320
So there are a group that do obviously,

1983
01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:30,440
and you have your people there in, in,

1984
01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:34,960
uh, in Cornhole, Texas, uh, whatever.

1985
01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:35,420
I'm sorry.

1986
01:06:35,580 --> 01:06:35,840
Wow.

1987
01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:37,320
Wow.

1988
01:06:37,860 --> 01:06:39,120
It's just podunk.

1989
01:06:39,260 --> 01:06:40,160
It's a podunk area.

1990
01:06:40,180 --> 01:06:41,180
Lips hard Berkeley.

1991
01:06:41,480 --> 01:06:42,440
Give me a break.

1992
01:06:43,100 --> 01:06:45,220
So are you wearing, are you wearing your

1993
01:06:45,220 --> 01:06:45,580
Kiffey?

1994
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:45,860
Yeah.

1995
01:06:45,860 --> 01:06:47,800
When you go shopping, so you don't get

1996
01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:48,500
accosted.

1997
01:06:50,380 --> 01:06:50,820
Birkenstocks.

1998
01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:51,040
Brook.

1999
01:06:51,320 --> 01:06:53,560
Well, there's that you're Birkenstocks.

2000
01:06:55,080 --> 01:06:57,660
Um, but I just saying it's, it's definitely

2001
01:06:57,660 --> 01:07:00,740
a risk with the, with the midterms on

2002
01:07:00,740 --> 01:07:01,180
the way.

2003
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:04,520
And I think it does feel to me,

2004
01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:06,840
but it also triggers a sense of, uh,

2005
01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:09,140
a sense of patriotism with a lot of

2006
01:07:09,140 --> 01:07:09,480
people.

2007
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:11,020
A lot of, I mean, when you saw

2008
01:07:11,020 --> 01:07:13,080
this whole thing take place with the secretiveness

2009
01:07:13,080 --> 01:07:15,080
and the craze and how well it was

2010
01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:18,020
executed and it was in and out, uh,

2011
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:19,840
it, it, I think it turns a lot

2012
01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:23,500
of people, sorry, Merca, Merca, baby.

2013
01:07:23,940 --> 01:07:24,380
Exactly.

2014
01:07:25,060 --> 01:07:26,740
And I think that is good for the

2015
01:07:26,740 --> 01:07:27,340
midterms.

2016
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:30,220
I will also say that this, at the

2017
01:07:30,220 --> 01:07:33,060
timing of this, maybe to drag a few

2018
01:07:33,060 --> 01:07:36,680
people over the line for the big, beautiful

2019
01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:37,140
bill.

2020
01:07:38,420 --> 01:07:40,780
Feels like that was definitely a consideration.

2021
01:07:42,100 --> 01:07:42,200
Yeah.

2022
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:44,060
I've been listening to more chit chat about

2023
01:07:44,060 --> 01:07:45,300
the big, beautiful bill.

2024
01:07:45,380 --> 01:07:47,140
And a lot of it is over the

2025
01:07:47,140 --> 01:07:48,140
salt issue.

2026
01:07:48,300 --> 01:07:49,740
That seems to be the last thing, just

2027
01:07:49,740 --> 01:07:51,480
how much you'll be able to deduct.

2028
01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:55,420
So that the, if we recall back in

2029
01:07:55,420 --> 01:07:58,000
the first Trump administration, where, when there was,

2030
01:07:58,120 --> 01:07:59,880
he went, there was a tax cut for

2031
01:07:59,880 --> 01:08:01,840
the rich, but we had our, the rich,

2032
01:08:01,940 --> 01:08:04,740
they screwed the rich, but because of salt,

2033
01:08:05,300 --> 01:08:07,900
you could only deduct up to $10,000

2034
01:08:07,900 --> 01:08:10,880
in state and local taxes, which includes mortgages

2035
01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:12,000
and everything in between.

2036
01:08:13,340 --> 01:08:15,420
And state tax, the whole thing.

2037
01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:17,600
And $10,000 was the limit and rich

2038
01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:21,600
people, that deduction was hundreds of thousands of

2039
01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:23,740
dollars in some cases, if you're really loaded.

2040
01:08:25,420 --> 01:08:27,439
But they dropped it to 10,000, which

2041
01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:29,260
screwed all the rich people that had this,

2042
01:08:29,380 --> 01:08:31,080
that counted on that deduction.

2043
01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:34,100
So Mike Johnson wants to raise that to

2044
01:08:34,100 --> 01:08:34,640
40.

2045
01:08:36,300 --> 01:08:38,540
But the Senate wants to keep it at

2046
01:08:38,540 --> 01:08:38,939
10.

2047
01:08:39,140 --> 01:08:39,279
Yeah.

2048
01:08:39,340 --> 01:08:42,700
And there's some sunset provision that's all about,

2049
01:08:42,859 --> 01:08:44,600
well, it will end in 2028.

2050
01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:48,359
And, you know, there's all kinds of shenanigans

2051
01:08:48,359 --> 01:08:49,819
going on, but it doesn't seem like it's

2052
01:08:49,819 --> 01:08:50,660
about much else.

2053
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:53,560
There's not much else though.

2054
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:55,200
It seems to only be down to the

2055
01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:55,460
salt.

2056
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:56,920
I don't think there was much else that

2057
01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:58,000
they're still arguing about.

2058
01:08:58,000 --> 01:08:59,580
Do a compromise that's going to come out

2059
01:08:59,580 --> 01:09:02,500
at 20 and then they'll sign it off.

2060
01:09:02,779 --> 01:09:03,240
Best price.

2061
01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:04,220
Best price.

2062
01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:04,660
Yeah.

2063
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:08,800
So we'll see.

2064
01:09:09,060 --> 01:09:10,260
I mean, we'll see what happens in the

2065
01:09:10,260 --> 01:09:12,140
next, between now and Thursday.

2066
01:09:12,359 --> 01:09:16,279
What we need, we need, we need like

2067
01:09:16,279 --> 01:09:18,340
the Epstein files to drop or a show

2068
01:09:18,340 --> 01:09:19,200
business scandal.

2069
01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:20,279
We need something else.

2070
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:22,540
Show business scandal is not going to cut

2071
01:09:22,540 --> 01:09:22,660
it.

2072
01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:23,899
Epstein files could.

2073
01:09:25,160 --> 01:09:30,220
There's always stories like this disgusting story, which

2074
01:09:30,220 --> 01:09:31,319
could get some attention.

2075
01:09:31,500 --> 01:09:32,680
It's probably a good time for it to

2076
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:33,979
come out during the war.

2077
01:09:34,060 --> 01:09:35,359
So it doesn't get as much attention.

2078
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:38,359
The dead babies in Ireland story.

2079
01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:40,620
They used this as a burial ground.

2080
01:09:40,939 --> 01:09:42,840
A baby died almost every fortnight.

2081
01:09:43,100 --> 01:09:45,819
There are decades of secrets buried here.

2082
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,740
So many tales of pain and anguish.

2083
01:09:49,380 --> 01:09:50,960
Today is the first glimmer of hope.

2084
01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:53,800
Finally, for hundreds of families throughout Ireland and

2085
01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:56,860
further afield, that Tuam here in County Galway

2086
01:09:56,860 --> 01:09:58,940
will finally give up its dead.

2087
01:09:59,480 --> 01:10:01,040
So what happened here?

2088
01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:04,960
From 1925 to 1961, nuns ran a so

2089
01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:07,060
-called mother and baby home at this site.

2090
01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:10,520
Somewhere unmarried mothers were sent in disgrace in

2091
01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:11,740
deeply Catholic Ireland.

2092
01:10:12,340 --> 01:10:14,820
The illegitimate children were treated shamefully.

2093
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:18,220
An inquiry later found around 9,000 infants

2094
01:10:18,220 --> 01:10:21,260
died in 18 such homes, resulting in a

2095
01:10:21,260 --> 01:10:23,180
state apology four years ago.

2096
01:10:23,740 --> 01:10:27,440
In Tuam, historian Catherine Corliss discovered almost 800

2097
01:10:27,440 --> 01:10:28,660
children had died.

2098
01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,080
Only two were properly buried.

2099
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:34,220
The rest remain under this grassy patch in

2100
01:10:34,220 --> 01:10:36,200
what used to be a sewage tank.

2101
01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:37,980
We're standing on the chambers.

2102
01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:40,060
There are about 20 of them.

2103
01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:41,860
They stretch right across here.

2104
01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:44,560
The chambers were built inside the tank.

2105
01:10:45,100 --> 01:10:47,420
There are little openings in concrete.

2106
01:10:47,980 --> 01:10:50,600
And they go down nine foot.

2107
01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:53,460
So the babies had to be placed one

2108
01:10:53,460 --> 01:10:54,200
on top of the other.

2109
01:10:54,300 --> 01:10:56,040
There's no way for an adult to actually

2110
01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:57,280
get down into those chambers.

2111
01:10:57,540 --> 01:10:59,320
So that's just a horrific thought when you

2112
01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:00,360
think about it.

2113
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:02,840
The dumping of the children's remains in this

2114
01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:05,000
way sparked outrage in Ireland.

2115
01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:08,080
A decade since the story first broke, it's

2116
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:11,360
hoped the excavation work starting today can finally

2117
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:14,820
afford a dignified reburial to hundreds of innocent

2118
01:11:14,820 --> 01:11:18,240
children whose only crime was being born out

2119
01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:18,940
of wedlock.

2120
01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:21,060
No, no, that doesn't cut it.

2121
01:11:21,220 --> 01:11:23,060
That doesn't get anybody outraged.

2122
01:11:23,860 --> 01:11:24,720
They're Irish.

2123
01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:25,760
It's like, meh.

2124
01:11:26,780 --> 01:11:28,620
I don't, I don't see people get it.

2125
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:30,840
Of course, it's horrible, but I don't think.

2126
01:11:31,040 --> 01:11:32,780
I thought it'd be the grossest story of

2127
01:11:32,780 --> 01:11:33,160
the week.

2128
01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:35,160
Now, so, so when you, I look at

2129
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:36,880
my email to see how bad it was.

2130
01:11:36,900 --> 01:11:37,860
I don't know what you can come up

2131
01:11:37,860 --> 01:11:39,720
with that's going to top the war.

2132
01:11:41,830 --> 01:11:46,730
Um, something with Beyonce files might, that's about

2133
01:11:46,730 --> 01:11:46,930
it.

2134
01:11:47,030 --> 01:11:48,750
I mean, the diddy stuff is, it's all,

2135
01:11:48,910 --> 01:11:49,590
there's no good.

2136
01:11:49,690 --> 01:11:50,930
It's completely no good.

2137
01:11:51,010 --> 01:11:52,090
There's nothing in there.

2138
01:11:52,170 --> 01:11:53,050
No, it stinks.

2139
01:11:53,830 --> 01:11:56,730
I love this email from the truth addict.

2140
01:11:57,130 --> 01:12:00,790
Instead of ridiculing people for coming across info

2141
01:12:00,790 --> 01:12:02,490
you are unaware of.

2142
01:12:03,210 --> 01:12:07,030
Maybe, maybe try a simple web search.

2143
01:12:08,550 --> 01:12:10,970
Propaganda, I'm sure, but it's being spoken of

2144
01:12:10,970 --> 01:12:13,710
contrary to what y'all just lead listeners

2145
01:12:13,710 --> 01:12:14,770
to believe.

2146
01:12:15,730 --> 01:12:16,490
They were like, what?

2147
01:12:16,730 --> 01:12:18,030
Uh, dirty bomb attack.

2148
01:12:18,210 --> 01:12:19,950
Iran's next move against Israel.

2149
01:12:20,150 --> 01:12:21,010
Dirty bomb attack.

2150
01:12:21,190 --> 01:12:23,450
She said nine dirty bombs, dude.

2151
01:12:24,810 --> 01:12:25,470
You understand?

2152
01:12:25,790 --> 01:12:28,470
It's like, but why, why do you email

2153
01:12:28,470 --> 01:12:29,130
me like that?

2154
01:12:29,350 --> 01:12:30,490
Why are you even listening?

2155
01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:34,540
Man, what's the point of that?

2156
01:12:34,540 --> 01:12:36,380
Try a simple web search.

2157
01:12:36,500 --> 01:12:37,320
Well, you're wrong.

2158
01:12:38,100 --> 01:12:39,560
There's dirty bombs.

2159
01:12:39,760 --> 01:12:40,780
Dirty bombs are real.

2160
01:12:40,920 --> 01:12:41,660
Yeah, of course.

2161
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:44,060
We've been hearing about dirty bombs since we

2162
01:12:44,060 --> 01:12:45,280
started doing this show.

2163
01:12:45,580 --> 01:12:48,680
And yeah, and before it's always been dirty

2164
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:50,140
bomb, dirty bomb, dirty ball.

2165
01:12:50,180 --> 01:12:50,980
It's going to be a dirty bomb.

2166
01:12:51,060 --> 01:12:51,360
Okay.

2167
01:12:51,980 --> 01:12:53,220
Dirty bomb in New York.

2168
01:12:53,340 --> 01:12:54,500
Dirty bomb in California.

2169
01:12:54,700 --> 01:12:55,520
Dirty bomb everywhere.

2170
01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:56,200
Yeah, of course.

2171
01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:57,360
We've heard all this.

2172
01:12:57,580 --> 01:12:58,680
This is the benefit.

2173
01:12:58,820 --> 01:12:59,980
This is the boomer benefit.

2174
01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:02,180
We've heard it all.

2175
01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:03,840
Boomer benefit.

2176
01:13:04,020 --> 01:13:05,640
There's a show show title.

2177
01:13:05,660 --> 01:13:06,620
Boomer benefit.

2178
01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:07,720
Yeah.

2179
01:13:08,100 --> 01:13:09,220
I mean, it is.

2180
01:13:09,560 --> 01:13:11,360
And maybe we're just blasé.

2181
01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:13,620
Or what is the term?

2182
01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:14,280
Jaded.

2183
01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:17,560
Boomer benefit.

2184
01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:19,460
But we've heard it all.

2185
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:22,620
It's like, oh, how many, how many?

2186
01:13:23,060 --> 01:13:23,480
You know what?

2187
01:13:23,540 --> 01:13:24,100
How about this?

2188
01:13:24,780 --> 01:13:26,620
How about we find out there's no gold

2189
01:13:26,620 --> 01:13:27,520
at the Federal Reserve?

2190
01:13:28,380 --> 01:13:29,120
Remember that?

2191
01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:29,680
Remember that?

2192
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:30,400
When is that?

2193
01:13:30,500 --> 01:13:31,760
Where's that still in play?

2194
01:13:31,900 --> 01:13:33,280
Where's the live stream of that?

2195
01:13:33,940 --> 01:13:38,780
By the way, I saw that the largest,

2196
01:13:39,340 --> 01:13:40,400
let me see, what was it?

2197
01:13:41,440 --> 01:13:42,040
It's official.

2198
01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:45,920
Geologists have discovered the largest gold deposit ever

2199
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:49,080
recorded, a value of over $80 billion in

2200
01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:49,580
China.

2201
01:13:50,460 --> 01:13:52,280
Now, what does that do to the price

2202
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:52,600
of gold?

2203
01:13:52,700 --> 01:13:53,900
Shouldn't gold go down?

2204
01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:56,100
Technically, it should.

2205
01:13:56,480 --> 01:13:59,400
And speaking of gold, John, I buy my

2206
01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:01,500
gold at the Gold Boys over here.

2207
01:14:02,220 --> 01:14:04,200
Gold Co.

2208
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:05,020
Gold Co.

2209
01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:06,400
I want to make sure that all you

2210
01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:08,820
seniors get really worried about the economy and

2211
01:14:08,820 --> 01:14:12,000
buy my limited gold coins for 25%

2212
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:13,060
above spot price.

2213
01:14:13,180 --> 01:14:15,240
I get 5% of your order.

2214
01:14:15,620 --> 01:14:17,280
Gold, it's good.

2215
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:21,140
So I have two clips just to annoy

2216
01:14:21,140 --> 01:14:21,600
you.

2217
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:26,300
And this is a lecture on planet money

2218
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:31,620
about stable coins, which has a kicker at

2219
01:14:31,620 --> 01:14:32,140
the end.

2220
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:32,920
A stable coin.

2221
01:14:32,940 --> 01:14:35,840
Which just cracked, the kicker cracked me up.

2222
01:14:36,100 --> 01:14:37,140
And you'll catch it.

2223
01:14:37,360 --> 01:14:40,000
But this is information.

2224
01:14:40,140 --> 01:14:42,000
These are people that don't know anything.

2225
01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:48,220
Planet money is a goofball show where they

2226
01:14:48,220 --> 01:14:50,440
laugh and chuckle at everything they say.

2227
01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:52,380
They can barely speak.

2228
01:14:52,540 --> 01:14:55,020
Is it still that Kyle guy who hosts

2229
01:14:55,020 --> 01:14:55,220
it?

2230
01:14:55,220 --> 01:14:57,300
I don't know who's these two.

2231
01:14:57,360 --> 01:14:58,380
There's two or three people.

2232
01:14:58,540 --> 01:15:00,320
There's actually, if you take a look at

2233
01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:03,080
their webpage, they have like 30 people working.

2234
01:15:03,260 --> 01:15:04,700
They're probably all making good money.

2235
01:15:05,580 --> 01:15:07,660
But it's just a goofball show.

2236
01:15:07,840 --> 01:15:09,520
And they go on about trying to, and

2237
01:15:09,520 --> 01:15:11,900
they're never, it's like always kind of off.

2238
01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:13,560
You know, that's not quite right.

2239
01:15:13,660 --> 01:15:16,060
You know, but I figured this is perfect

2240
01:15:16,060 --> 01:15:16,560
for you.

2241
01:15:16,860 --> 01:15:19,500
First, it says that companies that run stable

2242
01:15:19,500 --> 01:15:21,800
coins need to hold the equivalent amount of

2243
01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:24,660
actual U.S. dollars or close equivalents like

2244
01:15:24,660 --> 01:15:25,820
U.S. treasury bonds.

2245
01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:27,080
Okay, makes sense.

2246
01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:30,320
Then it clarifies who's in charge of regulating

2247
01:15:30,320 --> 01:15:31,920
stable coins in the U.S. Is this

2248
01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:32,560
a stable coin lecture?

2249
01:15:32,780 --> 01:15:33,900
This is stable coin.

2250
01:15:34,020 --> 01:15:35,140
Oh, stable coin two.

2251
01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:35,700
I'm sorry.

2252
01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:36,560
I'm sorry.

2253
01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:39,760
My indicator is $27.6 trillion.

2254
01:15:40,620 --> 01:15:42,800
That's a measure of how much people are

2255
01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:44,460
using stable coins globally.

2256
01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:47,980
Last year, there was $27.6 trillion worth

2257
01:15:47,980 --> 01:15:51,080
of trading, payments and transfers on stable coins

2258
01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:51,600
like Tether.

2259
01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:53,540
And I bring this up because the Senate

2260
01:15:53,540 --> 01:15:55,780
has just passed a bill that might bring

2261
01:15:55,780 --> 01:15:58,940
special regulation for these cryptocurrencies for the first

2262
01:15:58,940 --> 01:15:59,360
time.

2263
01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:01,300
Makes sense that there's so much money zipping

2264
01:16:01,300 --> 01:16:03,580
through the blockchain that maybe some lawmakers want

2265
01:16:03,580 --> 01:16:04,700
to put some guardrails on.

2266
01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:05,240
Yes.

2267
01:16:05,400 --> 01:16:07,340
And so a reminder of what stable coins

2268
01:16:07,340 --> 01:16:10,920
are, they are cryptocurrencies whose value is pegged

2269
01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:13,160
to something else, often the U.S. dollar.

2270
01:16:13,700 --> 01:16:17,320
So unlike Bitcoin or Ether, whose values fluctuate

2271
01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:19,860
wildly, you are promised that when you buy

2272
01:16:19,860 --> 01:16:22,500
one of these cryptocurrencies, it'll stay basically the

2273
01:16:22,500 --> 01:16:22,880
same.

2274
01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:26,600
And because of this apparent certainty, stable coins

2275
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:28,240
are increasingly popular.

2276
01:16:28,560 --> 01:16:30,520
We'll link to our full explainer on stable

2277
01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:31,680
coins in the show notes.

2278
01:16:32,220 --> 01:16:34,660
These cryptocurrencies are often used for people sending

2279
01:16:34,660 --> 01:16:37,040
money across borders who would otherwise face high

2280
01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:39,180
bank fees and delays, or they're used in

2281
01:16:39,180 --> 01:16:40,780
countries where inflation is high.

2282
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:43,340
Also for scams and drug deals and ransoms.

2283
01:16:43,540 --> 01:16:43,660
Yeah.

2284
01:16:43,820 --> 01:16:44,100
All right.

2285
01:16:44,260 --> 01:16:46,020
So wide range there.

2286
01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:49,160
What then is in this bill?

2287
01:16:49,160 --> 01:16:50,920
Is it addressing some of those things?

2288
01:16:51,820 --> 01:16:52,860
A lot of use cases.

2289
01:16:53,620 --> 01:16:55,840
Many use cases, as Waylon said.

2290
01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:57,760
To be clear, the things I just mentioned

2291
01:16:57,760 --> 01:16:58,980
are illegal anyway.

2292
01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:00,880
They don't need special regulation.

2293
01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:04,200
But the coins themselves seem to.

2294
01:17:04,340 --> 01:17:06,180
So the bill does a few things.

2295
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:07,980
Oh, my goodness.

2296
01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:09,560
What is this monkey house?

2297
01:17:11,580 --> 01:17:13,700
I know they do that constantly.

2298
01:17:13,700 --> 01:17:18,400
Completely KYC'd stable coin, which somehow is a

2299
01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:19,080
cryptocurrency.

2300
01:17:19,980 --> 01:17:22,000
You can use that to do drug deals.

2301
01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:24,800
OK, yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

2302
01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:26,760
OK, now the other clip.

2303
01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:27,820
Is this where I'm going to get even

2304
01:17:27,820 --> 01:17:29,060
more annoyed by these people?

2305
01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:30,960
No, you're going to get really annoyed by

2306
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:31,440
this one.

2307
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:34,140
First, it says that companies that run stable

2308
01:17:34,140 --> 01:17:36,420
coins need to hold the equivalent amount of

2309
01:17:36,420 --> 01:17:39,260
actual U.S. dollars or close equivalents like

2310
01:17:39,260 --> 01:17:40,420
U.S. treasury bonds.

2311
01:17:40,820 --> 01:17:41,660
OK, makes sense.

2312
01:17:41,660 --> 01:17:44,960
Then it clarifies who's in charge of regulating

2313
01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:47,460
stable coins in the U.S. The bill

2314
01:17:47,460 --> 01:17:50,100
says for large stable coins, it's the office

2315
01:17:50,100 --> 01:17:51,620
of the controller of the currency.

2316
01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:54,480
And for the smaller stable coins, it's actually

2317
01:17:54,480 --> 01:17:56,340
up to the state where the stable coin

2318
01:17:56,340 --> 01:17:57,280
company is based.

2319
01:17:57,680 --> 01:17:59,480
Is that actually like, is one like a

2320
01:17:59,480 --> 01:18:00,440
giant coin?

2321
01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:03,240
Is that the large one and the small

2322
01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:06,220
one is like a dime-sized stable coin?

2323
01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:07,640
I'm very confused, Planet Money.

2324
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:08,360
Huh.

2325
01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:10,880
OK, so you would hope that then those

2326
01:18:10,880 --> 01:18:13,680
state regulators are on top of this.

2327
01:18:13,740 --> 01:18:16,220
They're having the baton handed to them.

2328
01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:18,760
Yeah, and you've hit on a major criticism

2329
01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:19,620
of the bill.

2330
01:18:20,260 --> 01:18:23,120
Berkeley economist Barry Eichengreen wrote an op-ed

2331
01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:24,380
in The New York Times this week.

2332
01:18:24,700 --> 01:18:27,440
He pointed out that regulators couldn't move fast

2333
01:18:27,440 --> 01:18:30,300
enough to act when Silicon Valley banks' assets

2334
01:18:30,300 --> 01:18:32,260
were vaporizing a few years ago.

2335
01:18:32,700 --> 01:18:35,480
And so he's skeptical that regulators will be

2336
01:18:35,480 --> 01:18:38,640
able to scrutinize the hundreds or even thousands

2337
01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:40,560
of stable coins that could be issued all

2338
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:41,280
over the country.

2339
01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:44,580
Supporters of the bill, though, say that this

2340
01:18:44,580 --> 01:18:46,980
at least gives some rules of the road

2341
01:18:46,980 --> 01:18:48,140
as opposed to none.

2342
01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:50,220
And speaking of rules, I read that the

2343
01:18:50,220 --> 01:18:53,340
Trump family can still promote their stable coins

2344
01:18:53,340 --> 01:18:54,200
under this bill.

2345
01:18:54,480 --> 01:18:57,020
Yeah, members of Congress can't shield a stable

2346
01:18:57,020 --> 01:19:00,320
coin game, but presidents and their families, they

2347
01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:01,340
are notably excluded.

2348
01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:03,980
Wow, it's a meme coin.

2349
01:19:04,440 --> 01:19:06,760
It's like Trump steaks.

2350
01:19:06,980 --> 01:19:07,660
It's sneakers.

2351
01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:08,540
Ah, you idiot.

2352
01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:09,100
You're right.

2353
01:19:09,180 --> 01:19:10,460
I'm very annoyed by that.

2354
01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:12,900
I knew that would get you.

2355
01:19:13,120 --> 01:19:14,880
The meme coin.

2356
01:19:15,220 --> 01:19:17,320
The Trump stable coin, that cracked me up.

2357
01:19:17,460 --> 01:19:18,780
I mean, I don't even know that much

2358
01:19:18,780 --> 01:19:20,760
about it and caught that a mile away.

2359
01:19:21,060 --> 01:19:24,220
It is true, though, that, so first of

2360
01:19:24,220 --> 01:19:25,760
all, what they don't get right is the

2361
01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:28,820
House and the Senate bill differ on who

2362
01:19:28,820 --> 01:19:30,020
is going to regulate it.

2363
01:19:30,060 --> 01:19:31,200
That's going to be the big thing.

2364
01:19:31,260 --> 01:19:33,200
So who's going to regulate stable coin?

2365
01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:35,760
And it's certainly true that we're going to

2366
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:39,400
see idiotic things like the Walmart stable coin

2367
01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:42,200
and the Amazon stable coin, which you may

2368
01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:44,400
not be able to use in other places.

2369
01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:46,180
It's going to it's going to basically be

2370
01:19:46,180 --> 01:19:48,160
like a loyalty card.

2371
01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:50,560
It's going to be very stupid.

2372
01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:51,680
A lot of this.

2373
01:19:52,460 --> 01:19:53,360
But the the market.

2374
01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:54,940
Well, how it wouldn't be that much different

2375
01:19:54,940 --> 01:19:57,140
than having the Macy's credit card.

2376
01:19:57,560 --> 01:19:57,980
Right.

2377
01:19:58,240 --> 01:19:59,400
Yeah, no, I agree.

2378
01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:01,160
Well, I don't know.

2379
01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:02,300
I don't know if you're going to be

2380
01:20:02,300 --> 01:20:04,600
able to use the Walmart stable coin over

2381
01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:05,100
at Amazon.

2382
01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:06,160
That's what I don't know.

2383
01:20:06,440 --> 01:20:08,240
No, you definitely won't be able to.

2384
01:20:08,280 --> 01:20:09,240
Are you kidding me?

2385
01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:11,400
I can tell you right now that question.

2386
01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:13,360
That's not the same as the Macy's credit

2387
01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:13,680
card.

2388
01:20:13,740 --> 01:20:15,120
A credit card is a credit card.

2389
01:20:15,260 --> 01:20:15,600
Macy's.

2390
01:20:15,720 --> 01:20:16,340
No, no, no.

2391
01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:18,880
Macy's had their own in-store credit card

2392
01:20:18,880 --> 01:20:20,000
that you could only use that.

2393
01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:20,480
Macy's.

2394
01:20:20,660 --> 01:20:21,380
Oh, you're right.

2395
01:20:21,460 --> 01:20:21,980
You're right.

2396
01:20:22,060 --> 01:20:22,340
You're right.

2397
01:20:22,380 --> 01:20:23,160
I forgot about that.

2398
01:20:23,260 --> 01:20:23,680
You're right.

2399
01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:26,960
OK, so that, first of all, is just

2400
01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:27,960
factually wrong.

2401
01:20:27,960 --> 01:20:29,980
Whatever they're talking about is really is going

2402
01:20:29,980 --> 01:20:32,380
to come down to which agency is going

2403
01:20:32,380 --> 01:20:33,160
to regulate it.

2404
01:20:33,180 --> 01:20:35,500
But I think the numbers about Tether are

2405
01:20:35,500 --> 01:20:35,960
correct.

2406
01:20:36,380 --> 01:20:39,840
There's 400 million people using stable coin Tether

2407
01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:42,740
stable coin as a U.S. dollar equivalent

2408
01:20:42,740 --> 01:20:44,740
all over the world, not really in in

2409
01:20:44,740 --> 01:20:46,200
the U.S. So we'll see.

2410
01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:49,260
I think the better reporting if they had

2411
01:20:49,260 --> 01:20:50,940
if the show is worth a crap, this

2412
01:20:50,940 --> 01:20:51,700
is not.

2413
01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:52,660
It's not.

2414
01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:53,820
It's not.

2415
01:20:53,820 --> 01:20:55,780
The better reporting would be to tell people

2416
01:20:55,780 --> 01:20:59,640
how to implement stable coins in their own

2417
01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:01,080
life with details.

2418
01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:05,220
Well, people can know I get some sense

2419
01:21:05,220 --> 01:21:05,460
of it.

2420
01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:07,420
This is just pie in the sky.

2421
01:21:07,480 --> 01:21:08,580
We don't know what I don't even know.

2422
01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:10,180
You know, if you didn't know the first

2423
01:21:10,180 --> 01:21:11,820
thing about it, you would say, well, this

2424
01:21:11,820 --> 01:21:12,400
is crazy.

2425
01:21:12,740 --> 01:21:15,580
And wait, wait, 27 trillion or whatever it

2426
01:21:15,580 --> 01:21:17,800
was, a very high number of people.

2427
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:19,320
2.7, 2.7 trillion.

2428
01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:21,160
I thought it was 27.

2429
01:21:21,480 --> 01:21:23,340
I thought it was 2.7. I'll play

2430
01:21:23,340 --> 01:21:24,940
the beginning of this right at the beginning

2431
01:21:24,940 --> 01:21:26,160
of the first clip.

2432
01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:30,200
My indicator is 27.6 trillion dollars.

2433
01:21:30,220 --> 01:21:30,760
Oh, you're right.

2434
01:21:30,900 --> 01:21:32,160
But that doesn't sound right.

2435
01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:36,840
Doesn't well, that's what his indicator is indicator.

2436
01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:40,580
OK, so Fifi Lagarde comes out.

2437
01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:45,040
You know, Fifi is the buddy Christine Lagarde

2438
01:21:45,040 --> 01:21:46,260
of the European Central Bank.

2439
01:21:46,640 --> 01:21:49,020
Now she's taking questions, a Q&A.

2440
01:21:49,820 --> 01:21:54,380
And so she's sitting behind the dais and

2441
01:21:54,380 --> 01:21:59,680
she's wearing some glittery type sweater with glittery

2442
01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:00,060
speckles.

2443
01:22:00,180 --> 01:22:03,060
And she has a sash, a green sash

2444
01:22:03,060 --> 01:22:05,960
over her shoulder, like she's at Starfleet Command.

2445
01:22:06,460 --> 01:22:07,580
This woman is nuts.

2446
01:22:08,440 --> 01:22:10,260
You know, she wears she I've seen her

2447
01:22:10,260 --> 01:22:11,000
wear this before.

2448
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:12,580
It's almost like a beauty queen.

2449
01:22:12,620 --> 01:22:13,360
Yes, yes.

2450
01:22:13,580 --> 01:22:15,580
Like I have my sash.

2451
01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:16,880
I show authority.

2452
01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:19,440
Because, you know, if there was a uniform

2453
01:22:19,440 --> 01:22:22,300
for the European Central Bank, she'd wear it.

2454
01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:24,640
She might even get uniforms for everybody.

2455
01:22:25,180 --> 01:22:27,240
And so she's talking about the digital euro.

2456
01:22:27,660 --> 01:22:28,520
Listen to this.

2457
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:32,340
Many people are a little worried about what

2458
01:22:32,340 --> 01:22:35,040
will happen to them with the digital euro.

2459
01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:37,620
Can you encourage them?

2460
01:22:38,260 --> 01:22:40,560
Why is the digital euro good for people

2461
01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:41,420
like you and me?

2462
01:22:41,420 --> 01:22:45,140
The digital currency, where it has been piloted,

2463
01:22:45,280 --> 01:22:46,880
and there is only one which is clearly

2464
01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:50,080
now launched in a very small country, but

2465
01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:52,220
it is piloted on a fairly large scale

2466
01:22:52,220 --> 01:22:55,880
in China, is of use and of service

2467
01:22:55,880 --> 01:22:57,260
to all citizens.

2468
01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:01,320
So it is not something that is good

2469
01:23:01,320 --> 01:23:03,620
for the elite or is good for the

2470
01:23:03,620 --> 01:23:06,460
young or is good for some versus others.

2471
01:23:06,460 --> 01:23:08,920
If it is well done and if it

2472
01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:11,980
is well implemented, it would be of service

2473
01:23:11,980 --> 01:23:13,300
to all citizens.

2474
01:23:13,780 --> 01:23:18,160
So what I hear her saying is, oh,

2475
01:23:18,260 --> 01:23:20,060
you know, China has done it.

2476
01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:22,400
It's piloted on a fairly large scale.

2477
01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:24,360
And, you know, what the Chinese do is

2478
01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:26,080
it's of use and of service to all

2479
01:23:26,080 --> 01:23:26,600
citizens.

2480
01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:30,340
Yeah, connected to your social credit score.

2481
01:23:32,100 --> 01:23:33,380
That's what they're planning.

2482
01:23:34,540 --> 01:23:37,260
She's planning, and by the way, a stable

2483
01:23:37,260 --> 01:23:38,820
coin could be used in the same manner.

2484
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:43,420
But man, she just said, oh, no, China's

2485
01:23:43,420 --> 01:23:44,020
doing this great.

2486
01:23:44,260 --> 01:23:45,620
It's good for everybody.

2487
01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:48,640
And, you know, I told you they're cracking

2488
01:23:48,640 --> 01:23:48,960
down.

2489
01:23:49,060 --> 01:23:51,100
You can't have more than 3,000 euros

2490
01:23:51,100 --> 01:23:52,940
in cash in your possession.

2491
01:23:54,340 --> 01:23:55,380
It's now illegal.

2492
01:23:55,520 --> 01:23:58,260
It's becoming illegal in all the member states

2493
01:23:58,260 --> 01:23:58,720
in Europe.

2494
01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:01,900
Cannot have more than 3,000 euros in

2495
01:24:01,900 --> 01:24:03,180
cash in your possession.

2496
01:24:03,860 --> 01:24:04,300
Why?

2497
01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:07,240
Because you must be a criminal.

2498
01:24:09,460 --> 01:24:10,900
Literally, you must be.

2499
01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:12,660
By the way, I think we have a

2500
01:24:12,660 --> 01:24:13,780
note from one of our producers.

2501
01:24:13,960 --> 01:24:14,960
I think she actually donated.

2502
01:24:15,100 --> 01:24:16,060
It's probably a long note.

2503
01:24:17,480 --> 01:24:19,640
She was coming across the border and had

2504
01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:22,700
just under $10,000 in cash and got

2505
01:24:22,700 --> 01:24:24,260
pulled aside for the same reason.

2506
01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:26,220
There must be drugs.

2507
01:24:26,760 --> 01:24:27,940
So she's coming in here?

2508
01:24:28,420 --> 01:24:30,240
Yeah, I think she donated.

2509
01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:32,320
It's on the card.

2510
01:24:32,420 --> 01:24:34,460
It says you can't be moving more than

2511
01:24:34,460 --> 01:24:35,420
$10,000 in cash.

2512
01:24:35,500 --> 01:24:38,000
I know, but I think we'll get to

2513
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:39,980
it when we read her donation note.

2514
01:24:40,060 --> 01:24:42,500
But I think what the border patrol said

2515
01:24:42,500 --> 01:24:44,480
was, it's just got to be drugs.

2516
01:24:44,580 --> 01:24:45,580
We're going to find the drugs.

2517
01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:50,180
None of this is good.

2518
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:52,340
That's when you respond.

2519
01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:53,380
I already sold the drugs.

2520
01:24:53,500 --> 01:24:54,580
That's where I got the money from.

2521
01:24:54,740 --> 01:24:55,860
I'm high on them, man.

2522
01:24:55,860 --> 01:24:56,720
What are you talking about?

2523
01:24:56,800 --> 01:24:57,880
You can't get them anymore.

2524
01:25:01,320 --> 01:25:04,300
Okay, can I do three NPR clips?

2525
01:25:04,500 --> 01:25:05,980
Because I'm a big fan of...

2526
01:25:05,980 --> 01:25:08,260
Oh, you're poaching my territory, I see.

2527
01:25:08,480 --> 01:25:10,340
Not really, because this is on the media.

2528
01:25:10,540 --> 01:25:11,900
On the media has always been my...

2529
01:25:11,900 --> 01:25:12,300
Oh, that's right.

2530
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:14,440
Yeah, you've been hogging that one.

2531
01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:17,580
I've been on the media, on the media.

2532
01:25:17,860 --> 01:25:18,460
With Brooke.

2533
01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:21,220
I don't remember if it was...

2534
01:25:21,220 --> 01:25:23,980
There was a dude who...

2535
01:25:23,980 --> 01:25:25,920
It was Brooke Gladstone and her dude buddy.

2536
01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:28,540
Well, no, but that's the young guy.

2537
01:25:28,740 --> 01:25:29,280
That's Micah.

2538
01:25:29,420 --> 01:25:31,060
But before that, there was an older guy.

2539
01:25:31,160 --> 01:25:32,440
I think he got kicked off for some

2540
01:25:32,440 --> 01:25:32,720
reason.

2541
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:35,060
There was some older guy, so...

2542
01:25:35,060 --> 01:25:35,980
It's an ageism.

2543
01:25:37,340 --> 01:25:40,080
No, I think he pinched somebody's butt or

2544
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:40,400
something.

2545
01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:42,060
There was something, he had to go.

2546
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:44,500
And, you know, I like on the media.

2547
01:25:44,680 --> 01:25:47,660
It's an NPR podcast, is how I listen

2548
01:25:47,660 --> 01:25:48,060
to it.

2549
01:25:48,440 --> 01:25:49,260
About the media.

2550
01:25:49,480 --> 01:25:50,040
It's also on the air.

2551
01:25:50,220 --> 01:25:51,940
I know, but it's about the media.

2552
01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:55,380
And so when podcasting was coming up, NPR

2553
01:25:55,380 --> 01:25:56,820
was all jacked about.

2554
01:25:56,920 --> 01:26:00,160
Whoa, Adam Curry, blah, blah, blah, blah.

2555
01:26:00,860 --> 01:26:02,480
Did Adam Curry, blah, blah, blah?

2556
01:26:02,760 --> 01:26:03,900
That's exactly what they said.

2557
01:26:03,920 --> 01:26:05,720
It's what I remember of the conversation.

2558
01:26:05,860 --> 01:26:06,720
Adam Curry, blah, blah, blah.

2559
01:26:07,020 --> 01:26:08,520
But it was about podcasting.

2560
01:26:08,660 --> 01:26:09,560
But it was media.

2561
01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:10,940
It's always been about the media.

2562
01:26:11,320 --> 01:26:15,740
Now, of course, with Congress, not President Trump

2563
01:26:15,740 --> 01:26:19,420
directly, but Congress threatening to cut their 1

2564
01:26:19,420 --> 01:26:21,700
% of funding, which just seems like it's

2565
01:26:21,700 --> 01:26:22,300
so horrible.

2566
01:26:23,220 --> 01:26:26,720
Man, they've gone full Trump hate.

2567
01:26:27,660 --> 01:26:30,420
This is the beginning of on the media

2568
01:26:30,420 --> 01:26:31,140
for this week.

2569
01:26:31,580 --> 01:26:33,760
Last Saturday, Trump looked a bit glum at

2570
01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:36,600
his, I mean, the Army's birthday parade.

2571
01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:40,580
Right there at his, I mean, the Army's

2572
01:26:40,580 --> 01:26:41,360
birthday parade.

2573
01:26:41,900 --> 01:26:43,800
That is, is that reporting?

2574
01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:49,760
No, it's a bias of observations.

2575
01:26:50,080 --> 01:26:52,160
Well, it just keeps, so the minute I

2576
01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:53,980
heard that, I'm like, this is not about

2577
01:26:53,980 --> 01:26:54,440
media.

2578
01:26:54,900 --> 01:26:56,760
This is about how much you hate Trump.

2579
01:26:57,320 --> 01:26:59,440
Last Saturday, Trump looked a bit glum at

2580
01:26:59,440 --> 01:27:02,280
his, I mean, the Army's birthday parade.

2581
01:27:02,700 --> 01:27:04,840
The soldiers weren't in tight formation.

2582
01:27:05,160 --> 01:27:06,480
They smiled and waved.

2583
01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:09,760
But with sparse crowds and very high humidity,

2584
01:27:10,380 --> 01:27:13,440
military.com noted that the mood was shaped

2585
01:27:13,440 --> 01:27:15,220
by a strange quiet.

2586
01:27:15,620 --> 01:27:18,740
The organizers were expecting around 200,000 people.

2587
01:27:18,860 --> 01:27:20,420
That's definitely not the case.

2588
01:27:20,940 --> 01:27:21,580
Newsmax.

2589
01:27:21,580 --> 01:27:24,840
Newsmax is reporting 10,000 people showed up

2590
01:27:24,840 --> 01:27:25,420
for this thing.

2591
01:27:25,740 --> 01:27:29,420
Michael Wolff, author of the 2018 bestseller, Fire

2592
01:27:29,420 --> 01:27:32,320
and Fury, Inside the Trump White House, told

2593
01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:34,560
the Daily Beast that he'd heard the president

2594
01:27:34,560 --> 01:27:36,280
later reamed out- Reamed.

2595
01:27:36,280 --> 01:27:40,180
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the parade's mildly

2596
01:27:40,180 --> 01:27:41,140
festive tone.

2597
01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:44,340
Wolff suggested that the problem was maybe it

2598
01:27:44,340 --> 01:27:46,720
wasn't quite North Korean enough.

2599
01:27:46,840 --> 01:27:50,000
He didn't send the message that he apparently

2600
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:53,260
wanted, which is that he was the commander

2601
01:27:53,260 --> 01:27:54,660
in chief of this.

2602
01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:56,820
So she says it wasn't North Korea.

2603
01:27:57,040 --> 01:27:58,260
That was not in the article.

2604
01:27:59,760 --> 01:28:02,860
This is all very strange editorializing, and I

2605
01:28:02,860 --> 01:28:04,920
think they're hurting the show because I didn't

2606
01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:05,400
like it.

2607
01:28:05,500 --> 01:28:06,360
It's menacing.

2608
01:28:06,360 --> 01:28:06,940
I want media.

2609
01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:10,420
Anyway, the president clearly wasn't happy.

2610
01:28:10,680 --> 01:28:12,480
I think the simple word here is hurt.

2611
01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:15,940
That's CNN data analyst, Harry Enten, the day

2612
01:28:15,940 --> 01:28:18,780
before the parade, talking not about Trump's feelings,

2613
01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:20,280
but his poll numbers.

2614
01:28:20,280 --> 01:28:21,640
You can see it right here.

2615
01:28:21,740 --> 01:28:22,620
We have two new polls.

2616
01:28:22,740 --> 01:28:25,940
Quinnipiac University, AP Newark, minus 12 to minus

2617
01:28:25,940 --> 01:28:26,460
16.

2618
01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:27,560
How about AP Newark?

2619
01:28:27,860 --> 01:28:30,420
Minus 16 to minus 21.

2620
01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:32,360
Awful, awful, awful.

2621
01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:35,460
The worst for Donald Trump in this term

2622
01:28:35,460 --> 01:28:36,240
so far.

2623
01:28:36,360 --> 01:28:39,440
He is very much way, way, way underwater,

2624
01:28:39,640 --> 01:28:40,700
at least in these two polls.

2625
01:28:40,860 --> 01:28:42,800
Still not about media so far.

2626
01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:45,300
Now we're talking about Trump's poll numbers, which

2627
01:28:45,300 --> 01:28:47,060
I just can't make the connection to the

2628
01:28:47,060 --> 01:28:48,260
On the Media podcast.

2629
01:28:48,260 --> 01:28:51,940
And on immigration specifically, a drop of six

2630
01:28:51,940 --> 01:28:53,920
points in the last two weeks.

2631
01:28:54,240 --> 01:28:56,080
The only thing that's happened over the last

2632
01:28:56,080 --> 01:28:58,900
two weeks is obviously Donald Trump's ramped up

2633
01:28:58,900 --> 01:29:00,460
immigration hawkish agenda.

2634
01:29:00,880 --> 01:29:02,900
And at least at this particular point, the

2635
01:29:02,900 --> 01:29:05,700
American people are saying, no, we do not

2636
01:29:05,700 --> 01:29:06,180
like that.

2637
01:29:06,300 --> 01:29:08,400
And they have turned against the president on

2638
01:29:08,400 --> 01:29:10,980
his core strength issue of immigration.

2639
01:29:10,980 --> 01:29:12,900
He is now underwater on the issue that

2640
01:29:12,900 --> 01:29:14,380
has been strongest for him.

2641
01:29:14,380 --> 01:29:17,420
And the estimated 5 million that filled the

2642
01:29:17,420 --> 01:29:20,020
streets of 2,000 towns and cities in

2643
01:29:20,020 --> 01:29:24,000
opposition, a historic number rallying under the banner

2644
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:24,960
No Kings.

2645
01:29:25,140 --> 01:29:27,640
I love how she just her tone changes.

2646
01:29:27,820 --> 01:29:28,720
It's so amazing.

2647
01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:29,540
It was historic.

2648
01:29:29,860 --> 01:29:30,600
It's so great.

2649
01:29:30,660 --> 01:29:31,300
No Kings.

2650
01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:32,780
Still not about media.

2651
01:29:33,280 --> 01:29:35,060
What a gut punch for a guy who

2652
01:29:35,060 --> 01:29:36,980
cares so much about the numbers.

2653
01:29:37,180 --> 01:29:37,900
A gut punch.

2654
01:29:38,220 --> 01:29:40,520
But hey, now we got a war on,

2655
01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:40,980
maybe.

2656
01:29:41,500 --> 01:29:43,620
And better still, it's far away.

2657
01:29:43,620 --> 01:29:45,800
We won't see that play out in our

2658
01:29:45,800 --> 01:29:46,320
streets.

2659
01:29:46,700 --> 01:29:48,620
So the way is clear for the president

2660
01:29:48,620 --> 01:29:50,840
to seize the narrative and make it his

2661
01:29:50,840 --> 01:29:53,540
own once he figures out what that is.

2662
01:29:54,200 --> 01:29:55,940
And still not about media.

2663
01:29:56,360 --> 01:29:58,440
And then after this last minute, I'm like,

2664
01:29:58,500 --> 01:30:00,000
okay, this is not going to be about

2665
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:00,820
media anymore.

2666
01:30:00,920 --> 01:30:02,140
But listen to this.

2667
01:30:02,480 --> 01:30:04,280
Trouble is we have so much of our

2668
01:30:04,280 --> 01:30:06,960
own violence right here, right in our faces,

2669
01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:09,660
which is a little less susceptible to spin.

2670
01:30:09,940 --> 01:30:11,500
Do you have the violence in your faces,

2671
01:30:11,700 --> 01:30:11,880
John?

2672
01:30:11,880 --> 01:30:13,820
Have you seen the violence in your face?

2673
01:30:14,020 --> 01:30:17,020
I've seen no violence in my face for

2674
01:30:17,020 --> 01:30:18,320
a decade.

2675
01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:21,120
But the stalwarts will go down trying.

2676
01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:23,760
If you're to believe MAGA, the left is

2677
01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:26,660
fundamentally more violent than the right.

2678
01:30:26,900 --> 01:30:30,060
When Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband

2679
01:30:30,060 --> 01:30:32,600
were murdered last weekend and two others were

2680
01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:33,000
shot.

2681
01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:34,640
Now we're going to talk about media.

2682
01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:36,720
Here's what Don Jr. had to say about

2683
01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:37,200
the shooter.

2684
01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:39,280
Everyone talks about Minnesota, but they don't talk

2685
01:30:39,280 --> 01:30:41,920
about the guy seems to be a leftist.

2686
01:30:42,060 --> 01:30:44,620
You walk into some place, you see a

2687
01:30:44,620 --> 01:30:45,140
bowl of fruit.

2688
01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:46,460
And from 20 feet away, you go, that's

2689
01:30:46,460 --> 01:30:46,780
fake.

2690
01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:50,700
That's Alex Jones, notorious for labeling the 2012

2691
01:30:50,700 --> 01:30:54,080
massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary a hoax.

2692
01:30:54,380 --> 01:30:57,060
When it comes to murder, he prefers to

2693
01:30:57,060 --> 01:30:58,640
doubt what he sees.

2694
01:30:58,860 --> 01:31:01,140
It looks real, but your mind knows because

2695
01:31:01,140 --> 01:31:02,040
it knows the look.

2696
01:31:02,740 --> 01:31:07,740
This thing smells of some type of sophisticated

2697
01:31:07,740 --> 01:31:08,480
operation.

2698
01:31:08,480 --> 01:31:11,000
The accused shooter turned out to be a

2699
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:13,400
Trump supporter and a fan of Alex Jones'

2700
01:31:13,620 --> 01:31:14,560
show Infowars.

2701
01:31:14,860 --> 01:31:15,200
What?

2702
01:31:15,700 --> 01:31:17,460
He was a fan of Infowars?

2703
01:31:17,660 --> 01:31:19,320
Now we're talking media.

2704
01:31:19,500 --> 01:31:20,640
I had not heard this.

2705
01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:23,940
Studies have found that although political violence is

2706
01:31:23,940 --> 01:31:25,120
on the rise overall.

2707
01:31:25,620 --> 01:31:26,240
But this is just a lie.

2708
01:31:26,740 --> 01:31:27,400
It's great.

2709
01:31:27,560 --> 01:31:29,880
The left goes in for property damage.

2710
01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:32,300
Murders are more the province of the right.

2711
01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:37,180
The left destroys property.

2712
01:31:37,180 --> 01:31:38,900
The right kills people.

2713
01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:40,380
Is the message clear yet?

2714
01:31:40,860 --> 01:31:42,680
As Elon Musk learned by way of his

2715
01:31:42,680 --> 01:31:44,980
own AI chatbot, Grok.

2716
01:31:45,120 --> 01:31:48,020
A user on X asked whether right-wing

2717
01:31:48,020 --> 01:31:50,720
political violence or left-wing political violence is

2718
01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:52,380
more prevalent in this country.

2719
01:31:52,580 --> 01:31:56,200
Grok unapologetically said right-wing political violence is

2720
01:31:56,200 --> 01:31:57,260
way more prevalent.

2721
01:31:57,680 --> 01:32:00,400
Elon says major fail as this is objectively

2722
01:32:00,400 --> 01:32:00,940
false.

2723
01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:04,340
Grok is parroting legacy media working on it.

2724
01:32:04,340 --> 01:32:07,680
But when challenged, Grok only quoted more studies

2725
01:32:07,680 --> 01:32:09,360
and stuck to its guns.

2726
01:32:10,360 --> 01:32:13,720
I mean, no wonder people who listen to

2727
01:32:13,720 --> 01:32:16,460
NPR that are customers of My Hair Girl

2728
01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:19,000
are spun up and spun out.

2729
01:32:20,280 --> 01:32:21,940
This is bad.

2730
01:32:22,380 --> 01:32:23,740
Yeah, it's just pure propaganda.

2731
01:32:24,020 --> 01:32:24,520
Totally.

2732
01:32:25,920 --> 01:32:28,240
He was a Trump supporter and an Alex

2733
01:32:28,240 --> 01:32:29,180
Jones listener.

2734
01:32:29,740 --> 01:32:31,420
Did he have boner pills in his back

2735
01:32:31,420 --> 01:32:31,760
pocket?

2736
01:32:31,840 --> 01:32:32,700
How did they know that?

2737
01:32:36,260 --> 01:32:38,120
I found out he came out and says

2738
01:32:38,120 --> 01:32:39,740
Waltz hired him as a hitman.

2739
01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:44,360
Yeah, kill Amy Klobuchar.

2740
01:32:45,080 --> 01:32:46,220
That's what he said.

2741
01:32:46,360 --> 01:32:47,400
Yeah, that's a good bit.

2742
01:32:47,540 --> 01:32:49,480
He says that Waltz hired him to kill

2743
01:32:49,480 --> 01:32:51,900
Amy Klobuchar because when Waltz is out as

2744
01:32:51,900 --> 01:32:53,620
governor, he wants to run as senator and

2745
01:32:53,620 --> 01:32:54,520
he wants that spot.

2746
01:32:55,140 --> 01:32:57,540
And then my thesis, which I wrote outlined

2747
01:32:57,540 --> 01:33:00,800
in the newsletter, was that he killed this

2748
01:33:00,800 --> 01:33:02,780
woman who was the head of the Senate

2749
01:33:02,780 --> 01:33:04,560
or state senate or assembly.

2750
01:33:04,560 --> 01:33:06,600
I think it was the Senate that was

2751
01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:08,000
very popular in Minnesota.

2752
01:33:08,320 --> 01:33:10,120
And she would have been the shoe in

2753
01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:12,680
for Amy Klobuchar if she had been assassinated.

2754
01:33:12,680 --> 01:33:15,020
So they had to make way for for

2755
01:33:15,020 --> 01:33:18,400
walls by doing by killing both.

2756
01:33:18,600 --> 01:33:19,400
Yeah, by killing both.

2757
01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:24,240
Well, if that wasn't crazy enough, our very

2758
01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:30,220
own Democrat representative, Hank Johnson, took to his

2759
01:33:30,220 --> 01:33:31,440
guitar this week.

2760
01:33:32,480 --> 01:33:33,700
I just have to play this.

2761
01:33:33,700 --> 01:33:35,040
I saw part of this.

2762
01:33:35,140 --> 01:33:35,960
I wish I'd clipped.

2763
01:33:36,340 --> 01:33:37,240
Oh, this is fantastic.

2764
01:33:37,800 --> 01:33:39,960
This is this is the guy who thinks

2765
01:33:39,960 --> 01:33:41,480
that islands can flip over.

2766
01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:43,260
Well, I was going to play that as

2767
01:33:43,260 --> 01:33:46,380
my punch line, but I'll play it now

2768
01:33:46,380 --> 01:33:46,700
then.

2769
01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:50,920
Yeah, my fear is that the whole island

2770
01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:56,940
will become so overly populated that it will

2771
01:33:56,940 --> 01:34:00,460
tip over and and capsize.

2772
01:34:00,460 --> 01:34:04,220
That was representative Hank Johnson about Guam.

2773
01:34:04,480 --> 01:34:06,780
He's notorious for being one of the dumbest

2774
01:34:06,780 --> 01:34:07,560
people in the world.

2775
01:34:07,700 --> 01:34:09,260
He thinks islands are floating.

2776
01:34:09,480 --> 01:34:10,380
Listen to this.

2777
01:34:10,520 --> 01:34:11,800
Just recently picked it up.

2778
01:34:11,960 --> 01:34:13,100
Thought I would try it out.

2779
01:34:13,660 --> 01:34:15,840
I hate to hurt your ears and everything,

2780
01:34:16,140 --> 01:34:18,200
but I'm just learning to play guitar.

2781
01:34:18,500 --> 01:34:20,820
And so I'm compelled with a new guitar

2782
01:34:20,820 --> 01:34:23,780
and with some thoughts about that old song.

2783
01:34:23,840 --> 01:34:28,240
Hey, Joe, you know, to give some commentary

2784
01:34:28,240 --> 01:34:29,740
on where we are now.

2785
01:34:29,740 --> 01:34:31,880
And if you don't mind, I'm going to

2786
01:34:31,880 --> 01:34:33,440
just strum a little bit.

2787
01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:46,900
Hey, Trump, where you going with that gun

2788
01:34:46,900 --> 01:34:47,780
in your hand?

2789
01:34:50,160 --> 01:34:57,020
Hey, Trump, where you going with that gun

2790
01:34:57,020 --> 01:34:57,740
in your hand?

2791
01:34:57,740 --> 01:34:59,600
And you complain about our end of show

2792
01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:00,140
mixes.

2793
01:35:06,540 --> 01:35:07,960
This is great.

2794
01:35:11,840 --> 01:35:13,880
Down the street, shoot down democracy.

2795
01:35:14,460 --> 01:35:15,640
You're going to shoot down democracy.

2796
01:35:16,800 --> 01:35:18,240
Oh, my goodness.

2797
01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:20,480
Why would you do that?

2798
01:35:21,220 --> 01:35:23,980
I mean, that's basically how I play guitar.

2799
01:35:25,220 --> 01:35:27,140
And you've never heard me play guitar on

2800
01:35:27,140 --> 01:35:27,460
the show.

2801
01:35:27,460 --> 01:35:28,620
Not on the pre-show, nothing.

2802
01:35:28,680 --> 01:35:30,200
I'll play the theremin, but I will not

2803
01:35:30,200 --> 01:35:30,860
play my guitar.

2804
01:35:31,520 --> 01:35:33,740
That was just that was a head scratcher

2805
01:35:33,740 --> 01:35:34,460
why he did that.

2806
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:36,620
Was there people going, that's a great idea,

2807
01:35:36,680 --> 01:35:36,880
man.

2808
01:35:37,500 --> 01:35:38,400
That's a great idea.

2809
01:35:38,580 --> 01:35:39,560
That's exactly what happened.

2810
01:35:39,940 --> 01:35:41,500
When you got a guy like that, who's

2811
01:35:41,500 --> 01:35:42,580
that dumb.

2812
01:35:42,760 --> 01:35:45,780
He's actually, you know, I think between him

2813
01:35:45,780 --> 01:35:48,260
and the Hiromo woman, that woman from Hawaii.

2814
01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:51,840
When they're that dumb, you can talk them

2815
01:35:51,840 --> 01:35:52,420
into stuff.

2816
01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:54,540
And I think people just laughing up their

2817
01:35:54,540 --> 01:35:54,820
sleeve.

2818
01:35:55,540 --> 01:35:56,340
His friends.

2819
01:35:56,340 --> 01:35:59,820
Hey, his friends, so-called friends is a

2820
01:35:59,820 --> 01:36:00,720
great idea, Hank.

2821
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:01,900
That'll show Trump.

2822
01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:03,660
Yeah, that'll show him.

2823
01:36:03,820 --> 01:36:05,740
It was probably Collins.

2824
01:36:06,500 --> 01:36:08,520
Collins like, hey, man, you're great on that

2825
01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:08,880
guitar.

2826
01:36:09,000 --> 01:36:09,560
You should play.

2827
01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:10,740
I do it all the time.

2828
01:36:10,840 --> 01:36:12,100
I do Puff the Magic Dragon.

2829
01:36:12,360 --> 01:36:13,780
You should do something from a black guy.

2830
01:36:13,880 --> 01:36:15,040
I know Hendrix.

2831
01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:21,820
And then just in bad stuff that circles

2832
01:36:21,820 --> 01:36:23,420
around on the stupid internet.

2833
01:36:23,420 --> 01:36:25,720
I don't know if you caught this meme

2834
01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:26,540
that went viral.

2835
01:36:27,240 --> 01:36:29,760
So there's videos going viral of the US

2836
01:36:29,760 --> 01:36:33,660
military being served steak and lobster all over

2837
01:36:33,660 --> 01:36:34,440
social media.

2838
01:36:34,940 --> 01:36:37,380
If you're familiar with the military, you know

2839
01:36:37,380 --> 01:36:38,720
about the steak and lobster.

2840
01:36:39,340 --> 01:36:41,540
Are we about to be in the middle

2841
01:36:41,540 --> 01:36:42,420
of a conflict?

2842
01:36:42,920 --> 01:36:44,000
Take a look at this.

2843
01:36:44,780 --> 01:36:45,800
Lobster and steak.

2844
01:36:49,560 --> 01:36:52,300
I wasn't in the military, but I'm going

2845
01:36:52,300 --> 01:36:54,380
by what people in the military in my

2846
01:36:54,380 --> 01:36:55,980
family have told me.

2847
01:36:56,640 --> 01:36:58,280
Let's take a look at what it means.

2848
01:36:58,700 --> 01:37:00,140
Take a look right here from Google.

2849
01:37:00,940 --> 01:37:01,820
You're correct.

2850
01:37:02,080 --> 01:37:03,740
He's reading from Google AI.

2851
01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:07,600
In that serving lobster and often steak, creating

2852
01:37:07,600 --> 01:37:11,420
surf and turf to US troops, especially during

2853
01:37:11,420 --> 01:37:15,540
deployments is a known morale booster.

2854
01:37:15,980 --> 01:37:18,120
So the whole idea is they're going to

2855
01:37:18,120 --> 01:37:20,000
send the troops in the Middle East because

2856
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:21,640
they're giving them the deployment meal.

2857
01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:22,320
This is it.

2858
01:37:22,540 --> 01:37:24,940
They said it's surf and turf, except this

2859
01:37:24,940 --> 01:37:26,360
is like from February.

2860
01:37:27,360 --> 01:37:29,380
It's a very old video, and it just

2861
01:37:29,380 --> 01:37:33,040
these things keep coming back viewed 9 million

2862
01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:33,820
times.

2863
01:37:35,780 --> 01:37:39,440
The Internet is so broken, and the amount

2864
01:37:39,440 --> 01:37:42,040
of people who just don't search anymore.

2865
01:37:42,200 --> 01:37:43,740
They just ask the AI.

2866
01:37:45,060 --> 01:37:47,820
Yeah, and that's all across the spectrum.

2867
01:37:47,920 --> 01:37:50,080
The amount of people who ask Grok, Hey,

2868
01:37:50,160 --> 01:37:51,540
Grok, tell me if this is true.

2869
01:37:54,460 --> 01:37:58,580
Yeah, it's the big, it's exactly what's happening.

2870
01:37:58,820 --> 01:38:02,520
It's a very, very distressing to me, but

2871
01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:05,140
the search engines themselves have been failing anyway.

2872
01:38:05,420 --> 01:38:07,080
True, true.

2873
01:38:07,460 --> 01:38:08,860
I mean, I still can't find the weed

2874
01:38:08,860 --> 01:38:09,220
whacker.

2875
01:38:09,400 --> 01:38:10,440
That's that remains.

2876
01:38:10,820 --> 01:38:13,080
I found you the weed whacker.

2877
01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:14,420
You just didn't like the results.

2878
01:38:14,420 --> 01:38:16,900
You just didn't like the results.

2879
01:38:17,360 --> 01:38:18,740
That's that's all that it was.

2880
01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:19,500
You don't like it.

2881
01:38:20,520 --> 01:38:22,460
And then the other thing this week was

2882
01:38:22,460 --> 01:38:23,600
I don't have the clip.

2883
01:38:23,680 --> 01:38:25,100
I couldn't bring myself to clip it.

2884
01:38:25,180 --> 01:38:28,840
Whoopi Goldberg telling the Persian lady that black

2885
01:38:28,840 --> 01:38:30,920
people have it worse than the black women

2886
01:38:30,920 --> 01:38:33,360
have it worse than Iranian women in Iran.

2887
01:38:33,920 --> 01:38:34,820
Did you see that?

2888
01:38:34,900 --> 01:38:37,700
That was just like everybody showed that so

2889
01:38:37,700 --> 01:38:38,160
much.

2890
01:38:38,440 --> 01:38:42,060
I have the Bill Maher response to it

2891
01:38:42,060 --> 01:38:42,940
with.

2892
01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:44,020
Oh, I didn't hear that.

2893
01:38:44,180 --> 01:38:44,340
Yeah.

2894
01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:45,260
With Wesley Hunt.

2895
01:38:45,380 --> 01:38:48,700
He's a Texas representative, a black guy.

2896
01:38:48,900 --> 01:38:50,360
And here's how that went down.

2897
01:38:50,540 --> 01:38:54,200
Did you think of Whoopi Goldberg saying it's

2898
01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:56,540
worse to be a black person in America

2899
01:38:56,540 --> 01:38:59,580
today than a woman in Iran?

2900
01:38:59,580 --> 01:39:01,680
You know, I say we were talking about

2901
01:39:01,680 --> 01:39:03,620
the trans issue before, and The New York

2902
01:39:03,620 --> 01:39:05,980
Times really has come over on that to

2903
01:39:05,980 --> 01:39:09,000
the sort of the sensible, liberal, not crazy

2904
01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:09,660
woke position.

2905
01:39:09,920 --> 01:39:12,020
I think this is a great first step

2906
01:39:12,020 --> 01:39:13,940
toward getting Democrats back to sanity.

2907
01:39:14,120 --> 01:39:16,540
And a second good step would be we

2908
01:39:16,540 --> 01:39:17,860
got to do something about the view.

2909
01:39:20,960 --> 01:39:22,740
I really believe that.

2910
01:39:22,920 --> 01:39:27,080
I mean, it's huge in Iran, though.

2911
01:39:29,960 --> 01:39:34,040
When I mentioned the view in Iran, you

2912
01:39:34,040 --> 01:39:37,780
can't even tell which one is which.

2913
01:39:38,500 --> 01:39:40,140
My district in the great state of Texas

2914
01:39:40,140 --> 01:39:41,920
is actually a white majority district that President

2915
01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:44,040
Trump would have won by 25 points.

2916
01:39:44,080 --> 01:39:45,800
As I said, I'm a direct descendant of

2917
01:39:45,800 --> 01:39:46,100
a slave.

2918
01:39:46,180 --> 01:39:48,120
My great, great grandfather was born on a

2919
01:39:48,120 --> 01:39:48,960
rose down plantation.

2920
01:39:49,500 --> 01:39:51,440
I am literally being judged not by the

2921
01:39:51,440 --> 01:39:53,200
color of my skin, but by the content

2922
01:39:53,200 --> 01:39:54,000
of my character.

2923
01:39:54,360 --> 01:39:57,480
That's the progress, because like a lot of

2924
01:39:57,480 --> 01:39:58,620
white people had to vote for me.

2925
01:39:59,580 --> 01:40:00,360
A lot.

2926
01:40:00,660 --> 01:40:02,400
So I don't even ever want to hear

2927
01:40:02,400 --> 01:40:04,840
whooping over his conversation about how it's worse

2928
01:40:04,840 --> 01:40:06,520
to be black in America right now.

2929
01:40:08,380 --> 01:40:09,340
Some sanity.

2930
01:40:09,640 --> 01:40:10,920
People want to get rid of the view

2931
01:40:10,920 --> 01:40:13,420
now, which will never happen.

2932
01:40:13,520 --> 01:40:14,500
It'll never happen.

2933
01:40:14,660 --> 01:40:18,600
They'll never know because now it's become bulletproof.

2934
01:40:19,220 --> 01:40:21,180
Unless the ratings all of a sudden take

2935
01:40:21,180 --> 01:40:21,960
a huge dive.

2936
01:40:22,820 --> 01:40:25,220
Yeah, I don't see that people love them.

2937
01:40:26,360 --> 01:40:28,500
So I think there's a dedicated group of

2938
01:40:28,500 --> 01:40:29,400
people that love the show.

2939
01:40:29,400 --> 01:40:30,620
And then there's all the people that follow

2940
01:40:30,620 --> 01:40:32,420
it just so they can ridicule it.

2941
01:40:33,460 --> 01:40:35,900
There's no excuse for that type of activity.

2942
01:40:36,020 --> 01:40:37,620
You know, just going back to Chad GPT

2943
01:40:37,620 --> 01:40:38,860
for a second, just because I saw this

2944
01:40:38,860 --> 01:40:40,780
article, I'd stuck in the show notes.

2945
01:40:41,280 --> 01:40:45,340
So MIT did a I'm not sure I

2946
01:40:45,340 --> 01:40:48,200
don't have the actual document, so I can

2947
01:40:48,200 --> 01:40:50,820
only give you the summaries that I have.

2948
01:40:51,260 --> 01:40:54,820
They did brain scans.

2949
01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:57,900
So that would be MRIs, I guess.

2950
01:40:57,900 --> 01:41:00,880
Now, what's the what's the probably and what's

2951
01:41:00,880 --> 01:41:02,700
the one that the brain professor used to

2952
01:41:02,700 --> 01:41:03,040
do?

2953
01:41:03,780 --> 01:41:04,720
It had to be MRI.

2954
01:41:04,920 --> 01:41:05,760
Yeah, but it's cat scans.

2955
01:41:05,860 --> 01:41:06,260
The other one.

2956
01:41:06,400 --> 01:41:07,820
Yeah, that's dangerous.

2957
01:41:08,360 --> 01:41:08,500
Yeah.

2958
01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:12,680
An MRI of people using Chad GPT.

2959
01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:16,220
And so they studied people for four months.

2960
01:41:16,900 --> 01:41:19,780
Our findings offer an interesting glimpse in how

2961
01:41:19,780 --> 01:41:23,640
LLM assisted versus unassisted writing engage the brain

2962
01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:24,100
differently.

2963
01:41:24,100 --> 01:41:27,620
In summary, writing an essay without assistance, brain

2964
01:41:27,620 --> 01:41:31,300
only group led to stronger neural connectivity across

2965
01:41:31,300 --> 01:41:35,100
all frequency bands measured with particularly large increases

2966
01:41:35,100 --> 01:41:37,040
in the theta and high alpha bands.

2967
01:41:37,400 --> 01:41:39,640
This indicates participants in the brain only group

2968
01:41:39,640 --> 01:41:41,740
had to heavily engage on their own cognitive

2969
01:41:41,740 --> 01:41:42,380
resources.

2970
01:41:43,180 --> 01:41:46,040
So if you see the people who used

2971
01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:48,280
AI to write essays, they couldn't even remember

2972
01:41:48,280 --> 01:41:50,560
what was in the essay four minutes later.

2973
01:41:51,880 --> 01:41:53,760
And what's happening is that, yeah, of course.

2974
01:41:53,760 --> 01:41:56,020
And so because you write something, you're, you

2975
01:41:56,020 --> 01:41:57,880
know, you're writing your brain.

2976
01:41:58,720 --> 01:42:01,300
Yeah, you're creating it out of nothing for

2977
01:42:01,300 --> 01:42:01,960
starters.

2978
01:42:02,540 --> 01:42:02,760
Yes.

2979
01:42:03,160 --> 01:42:05,080
So by creating something out of nothing, which

2980
01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:08,800
is what writing is, as opposed to cut

2981
01:42:08,800 --> 01:42:11,440
and paste, which is what AI amounts to.

2982
01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:11,840
Yes.

2983
01:42:12,960 --> 01:42:15,360
Yeah, you would have a change.

2984
01:42:15,520 --> 01:42:17,060
It would change the pattern a bit.

2985
01:42:17,180 --> 01:42:19,520
It changes people's critical thinking.

2986
01:42:19,520 --> 01:42:22,140
Well, it changes all.

2987
01:42:22,340 --> 01:42:23,880
It dumbs your brain.

2988
01:42:25,060 --> 01:42:26,740
It makes you, it makes you stupid.

2989
01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:30,340
Artificial intelligence makes you stupid.

2990
01:42:30,740 --> 01:42:31,880
Oh, there's a bumper sticker.

2991
01:42:32,540 --> 01:42:33,540
Maybe that's the idea.

2992
01:42:35,720 --> 01:42:37,740
Trying to dumb down the public so they

2993
01:42:37,740 --> 01:42:39,700
could go along with some of these programs.

2994
01:42:39,900 --> 01:42:40,660
Well, it's working.

2995
01:42:40,680 --> 01:42:42,260
So we can steal their money, say the

2996
01:42:42,260 --> 01:42:42,620
Democrats.

2997
01:42:42,940 --> 01:42:43,880
It's already working.

2998
01:42:44,200 --> 01:42:46,300
And then this one now, I'm surprised that

2999
01:42:46,300 --> 01:42:48,220
this, this isn't getting the play that I

3000
01:42:48,220 --> 01:42:49,680
think they wanted it to get, because it

3001
01:42:49,680 --> 01:42:52,020
is a 100% marketing move.

3002
01:42:52,560 --> 01:42:56,780
This is the 16 billion passwords leaked from

3003
01:42:56,780 --> 01:42:59,240
Apple, Facebook, Google, and others.

3004
01:42:59,780 --> 01:43:00,860
Did you hear about this?

3005
01:43:01,500 --> 01:43:01,600
No.

3006
01:43:01,720 --> 01:43:02,400
Oh, yeah, he's.

3007
01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:04,340
Well, you know, actually, I saw it's one

3008
01:43:04,340 --> 01:43:08,180
of those, I saw some reference to it,

3009
01:43:08,240 --> 01:43:09,540
and I never followed up.

3010
01:43:11,660 --> 01:43:14,100
So Forbes, this is Forbes, because of course,

3011
01:43:14,200 --> 01:43:17,660
they'll date Davey Winder will publish anything senior

3012
01:43:17,660 --> 01:43:18,200
contributor.

3013
01:43:18,560 --> 01:43:22,300
He's a veteran cyber security writer, hacker and

3014
01:43:22,300 --> 01:43:22,820
analyst.

3015
01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:27,220
16 billion Apple, Facebook, Google and other passwords

3016
01:43:27,220 --> 01:43:27,660
leaked.

3017
01:43:28,280 --> 01:43:30,100
And it's like, oh, this is horrible.

3018
01:43:30,460 --> 01:43:31,380
This is a problem.

3019
01:43:31,580 --> 01:43:32,500
This is a big deal.

3020
01:43:33,760 --> 01:43:35,880
And so everywhere you turn, it all boils

3021
01:43:35,880 --> 01:43:36,880
down to one thing.

3022
01:43:37,000 --> 01:43:40,360
And this analyst who forget where he's from,

3023
01:43:40,580 --> 01:43:41,880
maybe they mentioned the intro.

3024
01:43:42,380 --> 01:43:43,740
He gives it away twice.

3025
01:43:44,380 --> 01:43:46,780
Researchers say billions of login details have been

3026
01:43:46,780 --> 01:43:49,320
leaked, giving criminals access to accounts around the

3027
01:43:49,320 --> 01:43:49,620
world.

3028
01:43:50,160 --> 01:43:52,320
The security firm Cyber News is warning that

3029
01:43:52,320 --> 01:43:55,020
the data breaches affect Google, Apple and Facebook.

3030
01:43:55,540 --> 01:43:58,620
Researchers say they amount to about 16 billion

3031
01:43:58,620 --> 01:44:01,380
hacked credentials, which means many people affected are

3032
01:44:01,380 --> 01:44:03,300
likely to have had their login details for

3033
01:44:03,300 --> 01:44:05,080
more than one account leaked.

3034
01:44:05,480 --> 01:44:07,860
The report suggests that the data was stolen

3035
01:44:07,860 --> 01:44:10,200
through multiple events over time and not just

3036
01:44:10,200 --> 01:44:11,100
from a single hack.

3037
01:44:11,560 --> 01:44:14,140
Experts are advising people to change passwords and

3038
01:44:14,140 --> 01:44:16,160
use multifactor authorization.

3039
01:44:16,160 --> 01:44:17,320
Please help us out.

3040
01:44:17,500 --> 01:44:20,460
16 billion compromised credentials.

3041
01:44:20,900 --> 01:44:22,680
How bad is this leak?

3042
01:44:22,980 --> 01:44:25,320
Well, the good news is, is that this

3043
01:44:25,320 --> 01:44:26,580
isn't really a new data breach.

3044
01:44:26,800 --> 01:44:28,860
As you mentioned before, this is a compilation

3045
01:44:28,860 --> 01:44:31,420
of data that's been compiled over a very

3046
01:44:31,420 --> 01:44:32,300
long period of time.

3047
01:44:32,580 --> 01:44:34,300
The bad news, of course, is that 16

3048
01:44:34,300 --> 01:44:36,400
billion credentials is quite a lot.

3049
01:44:36,760 --> 01:44:38,840
And what it really indicates is the success

3050
01:44:38,840 --> 01:44:40,880
of a new form of malware that has

3051
01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:43,420
been rising to prominence called the Info Stealer,

3052
01:44:43,580 --> 01:44:45,900
which is capable of stealing hundreds of credentials

3053
01:44:45,900 --> 01:44:46,540
all at once.

3054
01:44:46,660 --> 01:44:48,120
That's why the number has gotten quite so

3055
01:44:48,120 --> 01:44:48,340
high.

3056
01:44:48,640 --> 01:44:51,240
I think over the span of time that

3057
01:44:51,240 --> 01:44:53,280
this breach covers, it is very likely that

3058
01:44:53,280 --> 01:44:55,880
you have changed your password, added two-factor

3059
01:44:55,880 --> 01:44:58,740
authentication, ideally in the form of an authenticator

3060
01:44:58,740 --> 01:45:00,900
code or even better, what's called a passkey.

3061
01:45:01,140 --> 01:45:02,860
Now, they are taking steps to make sure

3062
01:45:02,860 --> 01:45:04,820
that this is less relevant in the future.

3063
01:45:05,300 --> 01:45:06,460
For example, if you sign up for a

3064
01:45:06,460 --> 01:45:09,100
Microsoft account right now, you won't actually create

3065
01:45:09,100 --> 01:45:10,480
it with a password.

3066
01:45:10,820 --> 01:45:12,560
You'll create it with something called a passkey.

3067
01:45:13,120 --> 01:45:15,120
Apple and Google and the other internet giants

3068
01:45:15,120 --> 01:45:16,720
have also done a good job of trying

3069
01:45:16,720 --> 01:45:17,980
to kill the password.

3070
01:45:18,520 --> 01:45:19,700
This is what it's about.

3071
01:45:20,760 --> 01:45:23,960
Microsoft has been pushing this passkey for quite

3072
01:45:23,960 --> 01:45:24,720
a while now.

3073
01:45:25,440 --> 01:45:27,080
Google does the same thing.

3074
01:45:27,560 --> 01:45:29,700
You log in like, oh, you know what?

3075
01:45:29,840 --> 01:45:30,960
Why don't you just get rid of your

3076
01:45:30,960 --> 01:45:31,400
password?

3077
01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:32,300
Use a passkey.

3078
01:45:33,020 --> 01:45:34,860
Do you know anything about these passkeys?

3079
01:45:36,340 --> 01:45:38,480
No, it sounds like a version of a

3080
01:45:38,480 --> 01:45:39,020
password.

3081
01:45:41,520 --> 01:45:43,660
Yeah, they're annoying is what they're...

3082
01:45:43,660 --> 01:45:45,820
It's like if you lose your passkey, then

3083
01:45:45,820 --> 01:45:46,540
just...

3084
01:45:47,420 --> 01:45:49,240
I need someone to help me out with

3085
01:45:49,240 --> 01:45:51,360
this, but they're pushing this very hard.

3086
01:45:52,080 --> 01:45:54,140
And to me, it sounds like if you

3087
01:45:54,140 --> 01:45:56,820
use a passkey, the only person really in

3088
01:45:56,820 --> 01:46:00,320
charge of your credentials is the person who

3089
01:46:00,320 --> 01:46:03,340
issued the passkey, i.e. Microsoft and Google.

3090
01:46:04,040 --> 01:46:05,700
And then you have to go to them

3091
01:46:05,700 --> 01:46:07,540
and say, oh, you know, I lost my

3092
01:46:07,540 --> 01:46:08,080
passkey.

3093
01:46:08,080 --> 01:46:10,620
How is a passkey different than a password?

3094
01:46:11,300 --> 01:46:13,280
Well, the password, ultimately, if...

3095
01:46:14,600 --> 01:46:17,520
So you can forget your password or you

3096
01:46:17,520 --> 01:46:20,100
can lose your password, but that...

3097
01:46:20,100 --> 01:46:22,680
Let's drop those two premises.

3098
01:46:23,240 --> 01:46:24,780
I'm not going to lose or forget my

3099
01:46:24,780 --> 01:46:25,180
password.

3100
01:46:25,300 --> 01:46:26,520
How is it different than a password?

3101
01:46:27,480 --> 01:46:31,200
So a passkey, as I understand it, is

3102
01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:32,820
issued by someone else.

3103
01:46:33,380 --> 01:46:35,940
So how's that different than what MCI Mail

3104
01:46:35,940 --> 01:46:38,820
did in the early days before the Internet?

3105
01:46:39,060 --> 01:46:40,320
And when you had a...

3106
01:46:40,320 --> 01:46:42,820
They gave you a password that they generated

3107
01:46:42,820 --> 01:46:43,740
and you used it.

3108
01:46:44,040 --> 01:46:44,840
Yeah, but they...

3109
01:46:44,840 --> 01:46:46,220
So you don't know the password.

3110
01:46:46,740 --> 01:46:47,420
That's the thing.

3111
01:46:47,480 --> 01:46:49,120
Oh, you don't know the passkey.

3112
01:46:49,280 --> 01:46:50,100
No, you don't.

3113
01:46:50,160 --> 01:46:52,360
They store it and...

3114
01:46:52,360 --> 01:46:54,180
Well, how do you log in then?

3115
01:46:54,480 --> 01:46:57,220
I think it's like a certificate type deal.

3116
01:46:57,340 --> 01:47:00,320
So you have this passkey thing.

3117
01:47:00,320 --> 01:47:02,300
It's in a cookie or it's sitting on

3118
01:47:02,300 --> 01:47:03,480
the file somewhere.

3119
01:47:03,580 --> 01:47:04,700
What if you change machines?

3120
01:47:05,220 --> 01:47:06,520
Well, there's a good question.

3121
01:47:07,260 --> 01:47:10,680
All I hear from my geek friends is,

3122
01:47:10,760 --> 01:47:12,120
oh, passkey, I hate them.

3123
01:47:12,180 --> 01:47:12,620
They suck.

3124
01:47:13,160 --> 01:47:14,320
So they must suck.

3125
01:47:15,180 --> 01:47:16,580
I'll have to look into it now.

3126
01:47:16,800 --> 01:47:18,780
Yeah, you need to write something on the

3127
01:47:18,780 --> 01:47:19,220
OASIS.

3128
01:47:19,240 --> 01:47:20,340
I can write something up.

3129
01:47:21,780 --> 01:47:24,140
Don't use chappy to GPT because you become

3130
01:47:24,140 --> 01:47:24,680
stupid.

3131
01:47:25,200 --> 01:47:26,160
And we need you smart.

3132
01:47:26,360 --> 01:47:27,960
We need you sharp for the show.

3133
01:47:28,580 --> 01:47:30,440
That was the eye-opener for me.

3134
01:47:31,360 --> 01:47:32,680
That people are getting dumb?

3135
01:47:32,880 --> 01:47:34,040
Artificial intelligence.

3136
01:47:34,300 --> 01:47:34,900
I'm...

3137
01:47:34,900 --> 01:47:36,300
Whoa, I'm shocked.

3138
01:47:36,660 --> 01:47:37,600
Artificial intelligence.

3139
01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:39,820
That the public is getting stupider by the

3140
01:47:39,820 --> 01:47:40,160
minute.

3141
01:47:41,180 --> 01:47:43,300
And AI is making it worse.

3142
01:47:44,400 --> 01:47:45,500
Oh, no.

3143
01:47:46,100 --> 01:47:47,860
They finally found a trick.

3144
01:47:48,420 --> 01:47:50,560
How can we make people even stupider?

3145
01:47:50,760 --> 01:47:51,600
Even dumber.

3146
01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:52,940
We've tried the drugs.

3147
01:47:53,020 --> 01:47:55,320
The drugs, yeah, they become a little more

3148
01:47:55,320 --> 01:47:55,780
susceptible.

3149
01:47:56,120 --> 01:47:57,940
Can we make them...

3150
01:47:57,940 --> 01:48:01,400
Nobody can even learn anything except gender, the

3151
01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:02,220
ideology.

3152
01:48:02,660 --> 01:48:05,060
That's dumbed them down enough that they're cutting

3153
01:48:05,060 --> 01:48:06,000
their dick off.

3154
01:48:07,280 --> 01:48:09,600
How can we make them dumber than that?

3155
01:48:10,120 --> 01:48:12,320
How can we make somebody dumber than that?

3156
01:48:12,620 --> 01:48:14,720
I know, I know.

3157
01:48:14,880 --> 01:48:18,220
Let's give them artificial intelligence, and that will

3158
01:48:18,220 --> 01:48:19,620
make them human stupid.

3159
01:48:19,940 --> 01:48:20,820
It's fantastic.

3160
01:48:21,800 --> 01:48:23,440
They finally got to something.

3161
01:48:24,120 --> 01:48:25,520
This is the ultimate goal.

3162
01:48:25,680 --> 01:48:27,500
I think we finally figured it out.

3163
01:48:29,080 --> 01:48:29,760
That's it?

3164
01:48:29,980 --> 01:48:32,960
So that people will believe stuff like carbon

3165
01:48:32,960 --> 01:48:33,860
budget?

3166
01:48:34,380 --> 01:48:35,000
Stark warning.

3167
01:48:35,720 --> 01:48:38,020
A new report from over 60 climate scientists

3168
01:48:38,020 --> 01:48:39,740
showing the world may be running out of

3169
01:48:39,740 --> 01:48:42,620
time for limiting global warming to 1.5

3170
01:48:42,620 --> 01:48:43,120
degrees.

3171
01:48:43,720 --> 01:48:45,320
I think it shows a pretty harsh reality,

3172
01:48:45,460 --> 01:48:45,640
right?

3173
01:48:45,800 --> 01:48:47,540
You know, things aren't just getting worse, they're

3174
01:48:47,540 --> 01:48:48,740
getting worse faster.

3175
01:48:49,240 --> 01:48:51,480
We're actively moving in the wrong direction in

3176
01:48:51,480 --> 01:48:52,960
a critical period of time that we would

3177
01:48:52,960 --> 01:48:55,360
need to meet our most ambitious climate goals.

3178
01:48:55,360 --> 01:48:57,800
Some reports, there's a silver lining.

3179
01:48:58,040 --> 01:48:59,200
I don't think there really is one in

3180
01:48:59,200 --> 01:48:59,500
this one.

3181
01:49:00,220 --> 01:49:02,120
Scientists say we're on track to burn through

3182
01:49:02,120 --> 01:49:05,140
the planet's remaining carbon budget faster than expected.

3183
01:49:05,560 --> 01:49:08,180
That budget represents the total amount of greenhouse

3184
01:49:08,180 --> 01:49:10,700
gases we can emit and still have a

3185
01:49:10,700 --> 01:49:12,960
50-50 chance of keeping warming to 1

3186
01:49:12,960 --> 01:49:15,780
.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels.

3187
01:49:15,900 --> 01:49:17,520
See, this is what we identified on the

3188
01:49:17,520 --> 01:49:18,080
last show.

3189
01:49:18,440 --> 01:49:22,000
They've pivoted to this carbon budget and it's

3190
01:49:22,000 --> 01:49:26,940
500 metric megatrillion tons, whatever it is.

3191
01:49:27,060 --> 01:49:28,720
And we're running out.

3192
01:49:28,960 --> 01:49:30,080
The budget is running.

3193
01:49:30,180 --> 01:49:33,800
So they've basically equated climate change with money.

3194
01:49:34,480 --> 01:49:36,240
And that's the point.

3195
01:49:37,000 --> 01:49:39,520
Back in 2021, the UN estimated that we

3196
01:49:39,520 --> 01:49:42,180
can afford to release around 500 billion tons

3197
01:49:42,180 --> 01:49:44,720
of carbon dioxide and still be on track.

3198
01:49:45,100 --> 01:49:47,760
But today that figure has dropped to 130

3199
01:49:47,760 --> 01:49:48,660
billion tons.

3200
01:49:49,300 --> 01:49:52,020
By 2028, the world would have pumped out

3201
01:49:52,020 --> 01:49:54,740
enough CO2 that even a 50% chance

3202
01:49:54,740 --> 01:49:56,880
of staying within the Paris goal would be

3203
01:49:56,880 --> 01:49:57,460
off the table.

3204
01:49:58,120 --> 01:50:00,320
Meanwhile, the impacts of climate change are already

3205
01:50:00,320 --> 01:50:02,020
being seen across the planet.

3206
01:50:02,520 --> 01:50:05,200
We are seeing the impacts of climate change

3207
01:50:05,200 --> 01:50:07,360
on extreme heat.

3208
01:50:07,540 --> 01:50:09,720
We're seeing it on extreme rainfall.

3209
01:50:09,980 --> 01:50:12,000
We're seeing it on sea level rise and

3210
01:50:12,000 --> 01:50:14,300
storm surges if you're in a coastal area.

3211
01:50:14,480 --> 01:50:15,840
We're seeing it in wildfires.

3212
01:50:16,560 --> 01:50:21,400
And it is now no longer possible to

3213
01:50:21,400 --> 01:50:23,000
just say, oh, you know, this is just

3214
01:50:23,000 --> 01:50:24,180
something that the scientists worry about.

3215
01:50:24,240 --> 01:50:25,240
It doesn't affect normal people.

3216
01:50:25,600 --> 01:50:26,600
It's affecting normal people.

3217
01:50:26,680 --> 01:50:27,940
It's affecting them all over the world.

3218
01:50:28,220 --> 01:50:31,980
It's affecting normal people who write essays with

3219
01:50:31,980 --> 01:50:32,900
Chad GPT.

3220
01:50:35,000 --> 01:50:37,180
You know, I'm looking at the quad screen

3221
01:50:37,180 --> 01:50:39,600
and they're showing videos of the B2 rolling

3222
01:50:39,600 --> 01:50:40,420
out of the hangar.

3223
01:50:40,900 --> 01:50:42,080
That thing looks dopey.

3224
01:50:42,480 --> 01:50:44,360
It looks dopey when it's coming out of

3225
01:50:44,360 --> 01:50:44,660
the hangar.

3226
01:50:44,740 --> 01:50:46,580
It looks like an amphibious vehicle.

3227
01:50:46,580 --> 01:50:47,960
No, it doesn't look, no, it's not.

3228
01:50:48,100 --> 01:50:49,680
It only looks good when it's flying.

3229
01:50:49,960 --> 01:50:50,060
Yeah.

3230
01:50:50,340 --> 01:50:51,960
Looks dynamite when it's flying.

3231
01:50:52,000 --> 01:50:52,840
It looks wobbly.

3232
01:50:54,120 --> 01:50:55,900
Looks like a Cessna rolling out of the

3233
01:50:55,900 --> 01:50:56,220
hangar.

3234
01:50:57,340 --> 01:50:58,460
A flying wing.

3235
01:50:58,780 --> 01:50:59,260
Yeah, yeah.

3236
01:50:59,560 --> 01:51:00,620
It looks a little dopey.

3237
01:51:00,980 --> 01:51:03,500
The big, big cabin on top.

3238
01:51:04,840 --> 01:51:05,460
All right.

3239
01:51:06,520 --> 01:51:09,140
I'll give you another minute here before we

3240
01:51:09,140 --> 01:51:10,260
take a break if you want to.

3241
01:51:10,280 --> 01:51:11,080
You have to take a break?

3242
01:51:11,260 --> 01:51:11,620
What?

3243
01:51:11,780 --> 01:51:12,480
Yeah, we should.

3244
01:51:12,640 --> 01:51:12,840
We should.

3245
01:51:13,000 --> 01:51:13,760
I want to keep us on track.

3246
01:51:13,780 --> 01:51:15,720
You're getting donations after three o'clock.

3247
01:51:16,300 --> 01:51:17,260
We got donations.

3248
01:51:17,560 --> 01:51:18,080
I saw it.

3249
01:51:18,140 --> 01:51:20,780
We got long, long notes.

3250
01:51:22,180 --> 01:51:23,080
There's a couple of things.

3251
01:51:23,580 --> 01:51:26,260
Roy McGovern was on, I thought it was

3252
01:51:26,260 --> 01:51:26,560
funny.

3253
01:51:26,760 --> 01:51:27,020
Who's the?

3254
01:51:27,060 --> 01:51:30,180
Roy McGovern was on Al Jazeera just before

3255
01:51:30,180 --> 01:51:30,680
the bombing.

3256
01:51:30,880 --> 01:51:31,160
Who's this?

3257
01:51:31,680 --> 01:51:32,620
I'm sorry, Ray.

3258
01:51:32,740 --> 01:51:33,300
Ray McGovern.

3259
01:51:33,340 --> 01:51:33,960
Who's Ray McGovern?

3260
01:51:34,000 --> 01:51:34,760
The CIA guy.

3261
01:51:35,140 --> 01:51:36,400
He's the ex-CIA guy who used to

3262
01:51:36,400 --> 01:51:37,360
be on Democracy Now!

3263
01:51:37,400 --> 01:51:38,000
all the time.

3264
01:51:38,140 --> 01:51:38,900
And he's been flying around.

3265
01:51:39,280 --> 01:51:41,760
And he's, he's in a now, his, I'm

3266
01:51:41,760 --> 01:51:43,600
sorry, ex, with air quotes?

3267
01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:47,360
No, no, just, no.

3268
01:51:47,480 --> 01:51:48,120
Ex-CIA?

3269
01:51:48,580 --> 01:51:48,760
Mm-hmm.

3270
01:51:48,900 --> 01:51:50,880
He's ex-CIA, real ex-CIA.

3271
01:51:51,040 --> 01:51:51,400
Oh, sure.

3272
01:51:51,460 --> 01:51:54,000
But he's like, hasn't been in, I don't,

3273
01:51:54,100 --> 01:51:55,380
I don't think he's working for him.

3274
01:51:55,520 --> 01:51:56,820
I just don't think he's connected.

3275
01:51:57,240 --> 01:52:00,520
And he's, he gave a two-part analysis

3276
01:52:00,520 --> 01:52:04,040
that was wrong as could be.

3277
01:52:05,720 --> 01:52:08,220
But I'm waiting, I'm thinking there's, I got

3278
01:52:08,220 --> 01:52:09,840
these different clips I should go to.

3279
01:52:09,840 --> 01:52:15,190
Um, uh, since we only have a little

3280
01:52:15,190 --> 01:52:17,690
time, I want to play my TikTok clips

3281
01:52:17,690 --> 01:52:17,950
then.

3282
01:52:18,650 --> 01:52:19,050
Oh.

3283
01:52:19,810 --> 01:52:21,650
I'll play the Ray McGovern clips later.

3284
01:52:21,750 --> 01:52:23,350
Well, you kind of surprised me with that.

3285
01:52:23,430 --> 01:52:24,150
I wasn't- Yeah, I know.

3286
01:52:24,210 --> 01:52:25,390
I changed it to mid-stream.

3287
01:52:27,640 --> 01:52:28,040
Talk.

3288
01:52:28,200 --> 01:52:28,540
Talk.

3289
01:52:28,720 --> 01:52:29,000
TikTok.

3290
01:52:30,620 --> 01:52:31,240
All right.

3291
01:52:31,340 --> 01:52:32,780
The highlight of the show, everybody.

3292
01:52:33,720 --> 01:52:34,620
Well, to me.

3293
01:52:34,980 --> 01:52:36,680
I mean, if AI's not going to get

3294
01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:37,900
your TikTok clips, Will.

3295
01:52:38,380 --> 01:52:38,720
Yep.

3296
01:52:39,380 --> 01:52:41,880
So there's this woman named Kylie who does

3297
01:52:41,880 --> 01:52:44,300
just, she's just constantly, she's a teacher or

3298
01:52:44,300 --> 01:52:44,460
something.

3299
01:52:44,600 --> 01:52:46,700
She's on to all the, she does it

3300
01:52:46,700 --> 01:52:48,140
every, every day.

3301
01:52:48,280 --> 01:52:50,320
She has some, something to tell us and

3302
01:52:50,320 --> 01:52:53,560
they're all just junk and it's pathetic.

3303
01:52:53,560 --> 01:52:54,880
And she goes on and on.

3304
01:52:54,940 --> 01:52:57,480
She's so self-absorbed and self-assured.

3305
01:52:57,920 --> 01:52:59,320
Now she's going to give us a lecture

3306
01:52:59,320 --> 01:53:00,280
on conservatives.

3307
01:53:00,980 --> 01:53:01,600
Hi, my name is Kylie.

3308
01:53:01,720 --> 01:53:03,600
And here are four categories of conservative people.

3309
01:53:03,700 --> 01:53:04,920
I grew up around a lot of conservative

3310
01:53:04,920 --> 01:53:05,220
people.

3311
01:53:05,220 --> 01:53:06,980
So I've noticed there are four major patterns

3312
01:53:06,980 --> 01:53:08,400
or types of people that fall into this

3313
01:53:08,400 --> 01:53:08,780
category.

3314
01:53:08,940 --> 01:53:10,420
Number one, narcissists.

3315
01:53:10,600 --> 01:53:11,860
These are people that expect the world to

3316
01:53:11,860 --> 01:53:12,600
revolve around them.

3317
01:53:12,660 --> 01:53:14,460
And when it doesn't, they become angry and

3318
01:53:14,460 --> 01:53:16,240
start to scapegoat one of the many minorities

3319
01:53:16,240 --> 01:53:16,900
that they do this to.

3320
01:53:16,980 --> 01:53:19,020
An example of someone notable would be Donald

3321
01:53:19,020 --> 01:53:20,020
Trump or Ted Cruz.

3322
01:53:20,200 --> 01:53:21,740
Number two, social misfits.

3323
01:53:21,880 --> 01:53:23,940
These are people that are honestly incredibly intelligent,

3324
01:53:24,060 --> 01:53:25,880
but they were consistently bullied as children or

3325
01:53:25,880 --> 01:53:27,380
just never really found community.

3326
01:53:27,500 --> 01:53:28,780
They've always been the weird one that no

3327
01:53:28,780 --> 01:53:29,200
one likes.

3328
01:53:29,280 --> 01:53:30,380
And because of that, they begin to take

3329
01:53:30,380 --> 01:53:32,200
it out on other people and promoting hateful

3330
01:53:32,200 --> 01:53:32,520
ideas.

3331
01:53:32,700 --> 01:53:34,520
So think maybe like Ben Shapiro for this

3332
01:53:34,520 --> 01:53:34,900
category.

3333
01:53:34,980 --> 01:53:36,640
Number three, ignorant people.

3334
01:53:36,640 --> 01:53:38,720
These are generally people who are apolitical and

3335
01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:40,620
don't see color and they just don't care

3336
01:53:40,620 --> 01:53:42,200
enough or don't know enough.

3337
01:53:42,260 --> 01:53:43,680
So they end up adopting the beliefs of

3338
01:53:43,680 --> 01:53:45,060
their friends, family, and community.

3339
01:53:45,240 --> 01:53:47,440
And number four, last but not least, stupid

3340
01:53:47,440 --> 01:53:48,020
people.

3341
01:53:48,140 --> 01:53:49,320
These are people who didn't go to college

3342
01:53:49,320 --> 01:53:51,660
and just don't care about learning generally speaking.

3343
01:53:51,820 --> 01:53:53,660
They coasted through school and they probably read

3344
01:53:53,660 --> 01:53:55,020
about like a fifth grade reading love.

3345
01:53:55,080 --> 01:53:56,860
You just don't have a very sophisticated knowledge

3346
01:53:56,860 --> 01:54:00,320
of settler colonialism or racism or systemic issues

3347
01:54:00,320 --> 01:54:01,700
that underlie our society.

3348
01:54:01,860 --> 01:54:03,520
So they become susceptible to propaganda.

3349
01:54:08,040 --> 01:54:09,260
Judge not- So this is the kind

3350
01:54:09,260 --> 01:54:10,800
of person who's teaching your kids.

3351
01:54:11,280 --> 01:54:12,640
No, I don't know if the, are the

3352
01:54:12,640 --> 01:54:13,740
kids watching this?

3353
01:54:13,760 --> 01:54:14,840
It seems like you are watching.

3354
01:54:14,840 --> 01:54:16,380
No, no, I'm talking, she's a professor.

3355
01:54:16,480 --> 01:54:17,400
She's a teacher.

3356
01:54:17,560 --> 01:54:18,020
Oh, she's a teacher.

3357
01:54:18,200 --> 01:54:18,580
I believe.

3358
01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:22,440
Oh, Kylie the, well, she's a teacher on

3359
01:54:22,440 --> 01:54:22,820
TikTok.

3360
01:54:24,440 --> 01:54:27,600
Well, which brings us to the opposite end

3361
01:54:27,600 --> 01:54:32,460
of the spectrum, a lady trucker who, and

3362
01:54:32,460 --> 01:54:34,680
I think that the, I guess Oklahoma just

3363
01:54:34,680 --> 01:54:36,340
passed a law that said if you try

3364
01:54:36,340 --> 01:54:37,980
to stop somebody's car, they can run you

3365
01:54:37,980 --> 01:54:38,320
over.

3366
01:54:38,460 --> 01:54:40,460
And I think Florida has a similar law.

3367
01:54:40,940 --> 01:54:42,700
What do you mean if you stop, you

3368
01:54:42,700 --> 01:54:43,200
stop them?

3369
01:54:43,440 --> 01:54:44,920
When you're in a, you're in a situation,

3370
01:54:45,060 --> 01:54:47,440
there's a bunch of protests and you're trying

3371
01:54:47,440 --> 01:54:48,320
to get through something.

3372
01:54:48,460 --> 01:54:51,300
They surround your car and they just stop

3373
01:54:51,300 --> 01:54:52,500
it and they're pounding on your car.

3374
01:54:52,620 --> 01:54:53,600
You can run them over.

3375
01:54:53,760 --> 01:54:54,160
Wow.

3376
01:54:54,600 --> 01:54:57,240
But that's only in like Florida and Oklahoma.

3377
01:54:57,440 --> 01:54:58,960
Now Texas needs to get on board.

3378
01:54:59,060 --> 01:54:59,420
Every place else that has happened.

3379
01:55:00,500 --> 01:55:00,760
What?

3380
01:55:01,080 --> 01:55:02,280
Texas needs to get on board.

3381
01:55:02,280 --> 01:55:03,400
Yes, they do.

3382
01:55:05,000 --> 01:55:08,300
And this woman who's a trucker with a

3383
01:55:08,300 --> 01:55:13,220
Peterbilt, she has a, or a big, some

3384
01:55:13,220 --> 01:55:14,140
monster truck.

3385
01:55:14,260 --> 01:55:14,700
Big rig.

3386
01:55:15,440 --> 01:55:18,280
She's a tough chick and she is, I

3387
01:55:18,280 --> 01:55:20,640
think, expressing a view that a lot of

3388
01:55:20,640 --> 01:55:21,260
people feel.

3389
01:55:21,740 --> 01:55:23,300
So I hear talk that there's a lot

3390
01:55:23,300 --> 01:55:25,340
of people planning on doing protests out in

3391
01:55:25,340 --> 01:55:26,940
the streets across the country soon.

3392
01:55:27,600 --> 01:55:28,800
I just want to tell you a little

3393
01:55:28,800 --> 01:55:31,040
fun fact about truck drivers.

3394
01:55:31,040 --> 01:55:32,500
You see this thing behind me?

3395
01:55:33,120 --> 01:55:34,020
80,000 pounds.

3396
01:55:34,440 --> 01:55:36,160
Takes nearly two football fields to come to

3397
01:55:36,160 --> 01:55:37,860
a complete stop when we're driving at interstate

3398
01:55:37,860 --> 01:55:38,240
speed.

3399
01:55:38,940 --> 01:55:40,440
For us truck drivers out here, we're just

3400
01:55:40,440 --> 01:55:41,160
trying to make a living.

3401
01:55:41,360 --> 01:55:42,720
We're just trying to pay our bills, support

3402
01:55:42,720 --> 01:55:44,240
our families and go home.

3403
01:55:44,920 --> 01:55:45,920
And I can tell you this.

3404
01:55:46,260 --> 01:55:47,880
If you guys start standing out in the

3405
01:55:47,880 --> 01:55:51,080
middle of the interstate, us truck drivers, we're

3406
01:55:51,080 --> 01:55:51,740
not going to stop.

3407
01:55:52,320 --> 01:55:53,720
You see a truck driver by the name

3408
01:55:53,720 --> 01:55:55,900
of Reginald Denny stopped once for a protest.

3409
01:55:56,200 --> 01:55:57,380
Rather, it was more of a riot.

3410
01:55:58,300 --> 01:55:59,520
But he got pulled out of his truck

3411
01:55:59,520 --> 01:56:01,020
and he got beaten to death.

3412
01:56:01,040 --> 01:56:02,820
A man that had a family to go

3413
01:56:02,820 --> 01:56:04,240
home to who was just trying to do

3414
01:56:04,240 --> 01:56:04,820
his job.

3415
01:56:05,220 --> 01:56:06,820
So if you decide to stand in front

3416
01:56:06,820 --> 01:56:08,260
of one of these on the interstate for

3417
01:56:08,260 --> 01:56:10,160
your little protest or whatever you want to

3418
01:56:10,160 --> 01:56:11,660
call it, I call it domestic terrorism.

3419
01:56:12,140 --> 01:56:14,320
I guarantee you that truck driver that fears

3420
01:56:14,320 --> 01:56:15,560
for their life is going to do whatever

3421
01:56:15,560 --> 01:56:17,140
they have to do to get themselves out

3422
01:56:17,140 --> 01:56:18,780
of that situation where they feel they're in

3423
01:56:18,780 --> 01:56:19,100
danger.

3424
01:56:19,540 --> 01:56:21,160
And in that situation, the best thing for

3425
01:56:21,160 --> 01:56:23,120
us to do is push that throttle to

3426
01:56:23,120 --> 01:56:23,660
the floor.

3427
01:56:24,740 --> 01:56:27,440
Huh, I don't think Reginald Denny died.

3428
01:56:27,580 --> 01:56:28,780
It was not good, but I don't think

3429
01:56:28,780 --> 01:56:29,180
he died.

3430
01:56:29,860 --> 01:56:31,140
I don't know if he died or not.

3431
01:56:31,240 --> 01:56:32,300
I didn't look it up now.

3432
01:56:32,480 --> 01:56:32,900
No, no.

3433
01:56:33,000 --> 01:56:36,320
But using the Reginald Denny as the excuse

3434
01:56:36,320 --> 01:56:38,460
for running people over is I think is

3435
01:56:38,460 --> 01:56:39,740
going to be a commonplace.

3436
01:56:43,340 --> 01:56:46,180
Hey, there's something to running people over who

3437
01:56:46,180 --> 01:56:48,920
are standing in the middle of the interstate

3438
01:56:48,920 --> 01:56:51,160
trying to stop you from moving.

3439
01:56:51,420 --> 01:56:52,580
This is not good.

3440
01:56:52,720 --> 01:56:53,720
None of this is good.

3441
01:56:55,000 --> 01:56:56,500
You have to murder people.

3442
01:56:56,680 --> 01:56:58,660
You have to run the plow through them

3443
01:56:58,660 --> 01:57:01,160
like they did this one video going around

3444
01:57:01,160 --> 01:57:03,560
with a person in a Toyota ran over

3445
01:57:03,560 --> 01:57:04,440
some poor woman.

3446
01:57:05,160 --> 01:57:07,560
She was in the front yelling and screaming.

3447
01:57:07,840 --> 01:57:09,640
It's like that other maniac that you talked

3448
01:57:09,640 --> 01:57:10,800
about a couple of shows ago.

3449
01:57:11,260 --> 01:57:13,420
But she, the woman ran her over.

3450
01:57:13,840 --> 01:57:15,560
I mean, ended up knocking her to the

3451
01:57:15,560 --> 01:57:17,720
side and didn't run over her legs, which

3452
01:57:17,720 --> 01:57:19,400
was an unpleasant experience.

3453
01:57:19,400 --> 01:57:21,240
You see the car bumping up and down.

3454
01:57:23,200 --> 01:57:26,140
I actually have an educational TikTok clip that

3455
01:57:26,140 --> 01:57:27,160
I wanted to share with you.

3456
01:57:29,120 --> 01:57:29,960
Oh, OK.

3457
01:57:30,520 --> 01:57:31,100
Hey, poacher.

3458
01:57:32,820 --> 01:57:33,620
Hey, poacher.

3459
01:57:34,820 --> 01:57:37,700
I think you'll find this fascinating and informative.

3460
01:57:38,240 --> 01:57:39,580
I don't like the way straight women talk.

3461
01:57:39,900 --> 01:57:40,780
And I don't mean that in a bad

3462
01:57:40,780 --> 01:57:41,260
way at all.

3463
01:57:41,360 --> 01:57:42,800
I've just noticed there is a huge difference

3464
01:57:42,800 --> 01:57:44,460
between the way queer women and straight women

3465
01:57:44,460 --> 01:57:44,840
talk.

3466
01:57:44,940 --> 01:57:47,280
For straight women, there's very much an expectation

3467
01:57:47,280 --> 01:57:48,960
that you're dainty and small.

3468
01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:50,640
And so a lot of straight women will

3469
01:57:50,640 --> 01:57:52,140
talk like this and raise their voice and

3470
01:57:52,140 --> 01:57:53,000
talk really high.

3471
01:57:53,120 --> 01:57:55,280
Think of Sabrina Carpenter or Ariana Grande.

3472
01:57:55,420 --> 01:57:57,240
They have a tendency to raise the pitch

3473
01:57:57,240 --> 01:57:58,960
of their voice to be seen as more

3474
01:57:58,960 --> 01:57:59,300
feminine.

3475
01:57:59,500 --> 01:58:01,480
It's almost like a sorority voice or a

3476
01:58:01,480 --> 01:58:02,660
customer service voice.

3477
01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:05,040
But queer women, because we date other women,

3478
01:58:05,240 --> 01:58:06,740
we do not feel the need to do

3479
01:58:06,740 --> 01:58:07,080
that.

3480
01:58:07,300 --> 01:58:09,320
The way queer women talk is more natural.

3481
01:58:09,460 --> 01:58:11,220
It's a little bit more raspy, usually more

3482
01:58:11,220 --> 01:58:12,080
of a vocal fry.

3483
01:58:12,240 --> 01:58:13,540
That's one of the ways that I was

3484
01:58:13,540 --> 01:58:15,360
able to tell that I was queer, because

3485
01:58:15,360 --> 01:58:18,140
speaking in that high pitch tone felt very

3486
01:58:18,140 --> 01:58:19,840
unnatural and very forced.

3487
01:58:19,980 --> 01:58:21,700
And to this day, that's how I'm able

3488
01:58:21,700 --> 01:58:23,900
to pinpoint women that are queer, even if

3489
01:58:23,900 --> 01:58:24,720
they haven't come out yet.

3490
01:58:24,820 --> 01:58:26,060
I see a lot of people talking about

3491
01:58:26,060 --> 01:58:27,660
gay voice for men and how it's higher

3492
01:58:27,660 --> 01:58:29,420
pitch, but not a lot of people talk

3493
01:58:29,420 --> 01:58:31,000
about the inverse of that, which is for

3494
01:58:31,000 --> 01:58:32,980
queer women, which is like a lesbian voice

3495
01:58:32,980 --> 01:58:34,500
that's deeper and raspier.

3496
01:58:34,680 --> 01:58:36,640
And that's why queer women are honestly seen

3497
01:58:36,640 --> 01:58:37,420
as less friendly.

3498
01:58:37,600 --> 01:58:38,960
I could go on and on about this,

3499
01:58:39,040 --> 01:58:39,940
but let me know what y'all think

3500
01:58:39,940 --> 01:58:40,420
in the comments.

3501
01:58:41,140 --> 01:58:41,880
How about that?

3502
01:58:43,080 --> 01:58:44,120
The more you know.

3503
01:58:45,480 --> 01:58:46,860
I think it's bullcrap.

3504
01:58:46,960 --> 01:58:48,460
Well, of course it's bullcrap.

3505
01:58:48,940 --> 01:58:50,740
I found out I was queer because of

3506
01:58:50,740 --> 01:58:51,420
my voice.

3507
01:58:52,300 --> 01:58:53,680
That's what she said.

3508
01:58:54,040 --> 01:58:58,480
She literally said- She was queer.

3509
01:58:59,020 --> 01:59:00,920
Yeah, which is code now for lesbian.

3510
01:59:01,300 --> 01:59:02,880
That's another- Which is code for something.

3511
01:59:03,280 --> 01:59:05,240
I think the lesbians should get mad now.

3512
01:59:06,700 --> 01:59:07,160
Seriously.

3513
01:59:07,340 --> 01:59:08,860
By my, because of my voice.

3514
01:59:09,180 --> 01:59:11,880
No, but I mean, the queer is stealing

3515
01:59:11,880 --> 01:59:12,560
their lesbian.

3516
01:59:13,740 --> 01:59:15,140
Yes, I think so.

3517
01:59:15,300 --> 01:59:16,600
That's, oh man.

3518
01:59:17,520 --> 01:59:19,080
Kara Swisher, where are you?

3519
01:59:19,260 --> 01:59:20,120
Weigh in on this.

3520
01:59:20,200 --> 01:59:20,580
I want Kara Swisher.

3521
01:59:20,660 --> 01:59:22,340
She'd be on board with it.

3522
01:59:22,360 --> 01:59:23,220
She'd be on board with it, yeah.

3523
01:59:23,900 --> 01:59:26,480
Do you think she considers herself queer now?

3524
01:59:27,320 --> 01:59:28,760
Yeah, I'll bet you she does.

3525
01:59:29,240 --> 01:59:30,360
I'll have to tune in.

3526
01:59:30,820 --> 01:59:33,060
I have two episodes backed up.

3527
01:59:37,160 --> 01:59:38,760
Well, I think that's the way to top

3528
01:59:38,760 --> 01:59:41,980
it off, to go into the fabulous donations.

3529
01:59:42,160 --> 01:59:43,480
Well, and with that, I'd like to thank

3530
01:59:43,480 --> 01:59:44,780
you for your courage and say in the

3531
01:59:44,780 --> 01:59:46,240
morning to you, the man who put the

3532
01:59:46,240 --> 01:59:48,060
sea in the waning crescent, say hello to

3533
01:59:48,060 --> 01:59:49,240
my friend on the other end, the one,

3534
01:59:49,300 --> 01:59:51,300
the only, Mr. John C.

3535
01:59:52,940 --> 01:59:53,260
Dvorak!

3536
01:59:56,420 --> 01:59:58,840
Hey, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam

3537
01:59:58,840 --> 01:59:59,020
Curry.

3538
01:59:59,140 --> 02:00:00,480
In the morning, all ships of sea, boots

3539
02:00:00,480 --> 02:00:01,740
on the ground, feet in the air, subs

3540
02:00:01,740 --> 02:00:03,120
in the water, and all the names and

3541
02:00:03,120 --> 02:00:03,800
nights out there.

3542
02:00:03,860 --> 02:00:05,240
In the morning to the trolls over there,

3543
02:00:05,260 --> 02:00:06,760
and the troll only counts you for a

3544
02:00:06,760 --> 02:00:06,860
second.

3545
02:00:07,040 --> 02:00:08,440
Oh, don't run away, stop running.

3546
02:00:08,660 --> 02:00:11,380
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

3547
02:00:12,020 --> 02:00:14,880
Well, it's amazing how no donations came in

3548
02:00:14,880 --> 02:00:19,160
after three, but 2,869 trolls tuning into

3549
02:00:19,160 --> 02:00:20,280
the live stream today.

3550
02:00:22,240 --> 02:00:22,940
That's epic.

3551
02:00:23,540 --> 02:00:24,380
That's epic.

3552
02:00:25,080 --> 02:00:26,140
It's epic, I tell you.

3553
02:00:26,640 --> 02:00:27,540
Well, not really.

3554
02:00:27,860 --> 02:00:28,240
It's epic.

3555
02:00:29,400 --> 02:00:30,080
It's epic.

3556
02:00:30,300 --> 02:00:30,800
Hello, trolls.

3557
02:00:31,020 --> 02:00:33,080
For the last, for this year, yeah.

3558
02:00:33,600 --> 02:00:34,600
Yeah, yes.

3559
02:00:34,940 --> 02:00:36,660
Trolls are in the troll room at trollroom

3560
02:00:36,660 --> 02:00:38,700
.io. You know what the high is, right?

3561
02:00:39,280 --> 02:00:40,660
Yeah, 4,000 or something.

3562
02:00:41,080 --> 02:00:42,500
Yep, over 4,000.

3563
02:00:42,520 --> 02:00:43,120
When was that?

3564
02:00:43,240 --> 02:00:44,300
What was the episode?

3565
02:00:44,900 --> 02:00:46,220
I wrote it down somewhere.

3566
02:00:46,220 --> 02:00:48,180
Whatever it was, we need that to happen

3567
02:00:48,180 --> 02:00:48,560
again.

3568
02:00:50,860 --> 02:00:53,000
But the thing is, it doesn't result in

3569
02:00:53,000 --> 02:00:53,640
donations.

3570
02:00:55,300 --> 02:00:56,820
4,038 was the number.

3571
02:00:57,080 --> 02:00:58,620
You don't know the episode or what the

3572
02:00:58,620 --> 02:00:59,920
occasion was?

3573
02:01:00,180 --> 02:01:01,560
You'd think you'd want to correlate.

3574
02:01:01,640 --> 02:01:02,740
It must have been a Trump thing.

3575
02:01:02,760 --> 02:01:03,880
You know, I just wrote on a little

3576
02:01:03,880 --> 02:01:05,880
stick it thing, and I didn't put the

3577
02:01:05,880 --> 02:01:06,200
date.

3578
02:01:06,340 --> 02:01:07,600
It was about two years ago.

3579
02:01:10,780 --> 02:01:13,980
Anyway, the trolls can also use modern technology.

3580
02:01:14,240 --> 02:01:16,080
I didn't expect to be grilled about the

3581
02:01:16,080 --> 02:01:16,620
details.

3582
02:01:17,180 --> 02:01:18,540
I don't know how many people are watching

3583
02:01:18,540 --> 02:01:18,640
this.

3584
02:01:18,640 --> 02:01:19,340
People are in Iran.

3585
02:01:20,780 --> 02:01:24,380
I'm not the no agenda troll expert.

3586
02:01:25,880 --> 02:01:26,920
Ted Cruz.

3587
02:01:28,480 --> 02:01:30,040
Ted, Ted, Ted, Ted.

3588
02:01:30,100 --> 02:01:30,640
Good lawyer.

3589
02:01:31,020 --> 02:01:31,980
Dope otherwise.

3590
02:01:32,780 --> 02:01:34,160
Don't want to judge, but...

3591
02:01:34,960 --> 02:01:36,960
So the trolls are making use, many of

3592
02:01:36,960 --> 02:01:40,760
them, of modern technology, created by independent software

3593
02:01:40,760 --> 02:01:43,160
developers who make these modern podcast apps, which

3594
02:01:43,160 --> 02:01:45,040
have many, many benefits.

3595
02:01:45,540 --> 02:01:50,040
You know, Spotify is now using Chapters, which

3596
02:01:50,040 --> 02:01:55,980
is a podcasting 2.0 enhancement to podcasting.

3597
02:01:56,000 --> 02:01:56,480
Oh, great.

3598
02:01:56,700 --> 02:01:57,700
I'm sure they appreciate it.

3599
02:01:57,700 --> 02:01:58,260
I'm sorry, not Chapters.

3600
02:01:58,600 --> 02:02:00,300
Give a big thank you to the podcasting

3601
02:02:00,300 --> 02:02:01,060
2.0 community.

3602
02:02:01,780 --> 02:02:04,820
Transcripts, transcripts, not chapters, transcripts.

3603
02:02:05,360 --> 02:02:06,900
And no, of course they didn't.

3604
02:02:07,300 --> 02:02:08,420
And of course they do it a little

3605
02:02:08,420 --> 02:02:08,960
bit differently.

3606
02:02:09,920 --> 02:02:13,640
So, you know, they bought Anchor, a big

3607
02:02:13,640 --> 02:02:14,960
free hosting company.

3608
02:02:15,040 --> 02:02:17,060
For, I don't know, way too much money.

3609
02:02:18,140 --> 02:02:20,380
And so they now create...

3610
02:02:20,380 --> 02:02:23,060
So if you use Anchor and 2 million

3611
02:02:23,060 --> 02:02:24,080
of the...

3612
02:02:25,440 --> 02:02:27,780
I think it was 1.8 million Anchor

3613
02:02:27,780 --> 02:02:28,260
podcasts.

3614
02:02:28,560 --> 02:02:31,280
Most of them have one episode that go

3615
02:02:31,280 --> 02:02:31,740
like this.

3616
02:02:32,440 --> 02:02:33,960
Test poop, test poop.

3617
02:02:34,080 --> 02:02:35,020
And that's the whole podcast.

3618
02:02:36,000 --> 02:02:37,940
I know because we've got to get rid

3619
02:02:37,940 --> 02:02:38,500
of all those.

3620
02:02:38,700 --> 02:02:40,880
We have systems to check if that's all

3621
02:02:40,880 --> 02:02:41,220
that is.

3622
02:02:41,460 --> 02:02:42,680
Test poop, test poop.

3623
02:02:42,780 --> 02:02:43,800
Okay, very good.

3624
02:02:45,040 --> 02:02:46,780
So they actually create the transcript.

3625
02:02:46,960 --> 02:02:50,140
By the way, just what's your complaining about

3626
02:02:50,140 --> 02:02:50,520
stuff?

3627
02:02:51,080 --> 02:02:52,940
What is these podcasts?

3628
02:02:53,080 --> 02:02:54,680
I've said, I think maybe I bitched about

3629
02:02:54,680 --> 02:02:55,280
this before.

3630
02:02:55,600 --> 02:02:56,880
What is this podcast?

3631
02:02:57,680 --> 02:02:59,860
Podcast begins in five minutes.

3632
02:03:01,180 --> 02:03:05,960
4.59, 4.58, 4.50. Who cares?

3633
02:03:06,100 --> 02:03:06,200
What?

3634
02:03:06,320 --> 02:03:07,620
Just cut that out.

3635
02:03:08,920 --> 02:03:11,280
What is the 10, 9, 8?

3636
02:03:11,380 --> 02:03:12,800
What would just start the damn thing?

3637
02:03:12,820 --> 02:03:13,580
We're live, everybody.

3638
02:03:13,840 --> 02:03:14,500
We're live.

3639
02:03:14,500 --> 02:03:15,160
We're live.

3640
02:03:15,240 --> 02:03:15,980
Okay, are we live?

3641
02:03:16,040 --> 02:03:16,460
Let me check.

3642
02:03:16,560 --> 02:03:17,900
I'll wait a few minutes for you people

3643
02:03:17,900 --> 02:03:18,560
to get in here.

3644
02:03:18,660 --> 02:03:19,980
Let's make sure you get into the live.

3645
02:03:20,000 --> 02:03:20,920
Oh, that's another one.

3646
02:03:20,980 --> 02:03:21,640
Are you on the live?

3647
02:03:21,760 --> 02:03:22,680
Yeah, I'll wait for y'all to get

3648
02:03:22,680 --> 02:03:23,200
into the live.

3649
02:03:23,220 --> 02:03:24,320
You sit there and you diddle around.

3650
02:03:24,580 --> 02:03:26,100
Here comes in some more people.

3651
02:03:29,440 --> 02:03:30,120
I don't know.

3652
02:03:30,640 --> 02:03:31,800
I don't know what that's about.

3653
02:03:32,180 --> 02:03:34,220
With the modern podcast app, you just get

3654
02:03:34,220 --> 02:03:36,040
an alert and then we're live.

3655
02:03:36,560 --> 02:03:38,140
And you tap on it and we're live

3656
02:03:38,140 --> 02:03:38,860
and you're good to go.

3657
02:03:38,940 --> 02:03:40,100
In fact, I do it a little bit

3658
02:03:40,100 --> 02:03:40,420
early.

3659
02:03:40,420 --> 02:03:42,880
I do it during the Fat Lady so

3660
02:03:42,880 --> 02:03:45,100
that people can gear up, you know, sing

3661
02:03:45,100 --> 02:03:47,060
along with the Fat Lady and then you're

3662
02:03:47,060 --> 02:03:47,480
good to go.

3663
02:03:47,540 --> 02:03:48,320
You know that we're live.

3664
02:03:48,380 --> 02:03:50,880
We don't need a countdown clock like we're

3665
02:03:50,880 --> 02:03:52,540
waiting for liftoff.

3666
02:03:54,960 --> 02:03:57,500
And it's always around the same time anyway.

3667
02:03:57,820 --> 02:03:59,720
So yeah, that's a very good question.

3668
02:03:59,820 --> 02:04:00,180
I don't know.

3669
02:04:00,360 --> 02:04:03,480
It's overproduced nonsense.

3670
02:04:03,920 --> 02:04:06,320
It's people trying to be, they're trying to

3671
02:04:06,320 --> 02:04:10,380
create tension and excitement and expectation to see

3672
02:04:10,380 --> 02:04:11,740
two dudes with cans.

3673
02:04:12,620 --> 02:04:13,360
All right, we're live.

3674
02:04:13,460 --> 02:04:14,020
Are we live?

3675
02:04:14,140 --> 02:04:14,800
Yeah, we're live.

3676
02:04:14,960 --> 02:04:15,460
Okay, let me see.

3677
02:04:15,480 --> 02:04:16,660
Are we also live on the Insta?

3678
02:04:17,240 --> 02:04:18,040
Let's check the Insta.

3679
02:04:18,180 --> 02:04:19,000
Okay, we're live.

3680
02:04:19,520 --> 02:04:20,560
No, thank you.

3681
02:04:21,560 --> 02:04:22,980
No, because of course, you can also get

3682
02:04:22,980 --> 02:04:25,380
delived from those platforms.

3683
02:04:25,520 --> 02:04:26,020
Don't do it.

3684
02:04:26,440 --> 02:04:27,120
Don't do it, people.

3685
02:04:27,640 --> 02:04:29,200
Just get into modern podcasting.

3686
02:04:29,260 --> 02:04:30,760
Go to podcastapps.com.

3687
02:04:31,660 --> 02:04:36,760
For iOS users, Castamatic, which is made by

3688
02:04:36,760 --> 02:04:37,140
Franco.

3689
02:04:37,320 --> 02:04:39,180
Franco is a doctor in Italy.

3690
02:04:39,680 --> 02:04:41,740
He works four days a week as a

3691
02:04:41,740 --> 02:04:43,900
doctor, saving lives.

3692
02:04:44,760 --> 02:04:46,560
And then one day a week, he programs

3693
02:04:46,560 --> 02:04:48,740
and saves souls with podcasting.

3694
02:04:49,220 --> 02:04:50,860
And he creates the Castamatic.

3695
02:04:51,000 --> 02:04:52,160
He just put out a new version.

3696
02:04:52,600 --> 02:04:54,140
That's an admirable character.

3697
02:04:54,520 --> 02:04:55,380
He's a great guy.

3698
02:04:55,440 --> 02:04:57,020
We had him on the Podcasting 2.0

3699
02:04:57,020 --> 02:04:57,920
podcast on Friday.

3700
02:04:58,020 --> 02:04:58,980
He's a great guy.

3701
02:04:59,680 --> 02:05:00,980
He's so nice.

3702
02:05:01,760 --> 02:05:05,740
And I said, hey, when you're debugging software,

3703
02:05:05,880 --> 02:05:08,040
is it the same way you debug humans?

3704
02:05:08,440 --> 02:05:10,220
And he said, if only humans had a

3705
02:05:10,220 --> 02:05:11,620
log file, that would be much easier.

3706
02:05:12,280 --> 02:05:14,680
So he created Castamatic a while ago.

3707
02:05:14,840 --> 02:05:17,060
And he just added all the live stuff

3708
02:05:17,060 --> 02:05:17,980
with the notifications.

3709
02:05:18,560 --> 02:05:20,440
It is, I think, one of the best

3710
02:05:20,440 --> 02:05:24,300
Apple iPhone podcast apps there is.

3711
02:05:24,440 --> 02:05:26,360
I don't have an iPhone, but I've seen

3712
02:05:26,360 --> 02:05:26,780
it work.

3713
02:05:26,860 --> 02:05:27,900
And it's very impressive.

3714
02:05:27,900 --> 02:05:29,580
It has a very iPhone feel to it.

3715
02:05:29,620 --> 02:05:32,000
So Castamatic, you can get it from the

3716
02:05:32,000 --> 02:05:33,140
app store.

3717
02:05:33,620 --> 02:05:35,760
Or go to podcastapps.com and see many

3718
02:05:35,760 --> 02:05:36,020
more.

3719
02:05:36,340 --> 02:05:37,660
It's a very good product.

3720
02:05:38,120 --> 02:05:39,560
And when we go live, you'll get an

3721
02:05:39,560 --> 02:05:40,560
alert right on time.

3722
02:05:40,680 --> 02:05:43,140
And then when we publish the show, unlike

3723
02:05:43,140 --> 02:05:45,640
your legacy app, within 90 seconds, you'll know

3724
02:05:45,640 --> 02:05:46,720
that the show is available.

3725
02:05:47,100 --> 02:05:49,660
Don't be like your granddad with it.

3726
02:05:49,900 --> 02:05:52,180
Oh, granddad using Spotify.

3727
02:05:52,960 --> 02:05:54,380
Oh, I didn't even get to the Spotify

3728
02:05:54,380 --> 02:05:54,780
part.

3729
02:05:54,780 --> 02:05:58,520
So they will create a podcasting 2.0

3730
02:05:58,520 --> 02:05:59,080
transcript.

3731
02:05:59,600 --> 02:06:03,900
So if you publish with Spotify hosting for

3732
02:06:03,900 --> 02:06:06,320
podcasts or whatever they call it, and you

3733
02:06:06,320 --> 02:06:09,080
use a modern podcast app, the transcript will

3734
02:06:09,080 --> 02:06:09,540
show up.

3735
02:06:09,840 --> 02:06:13,680
However, our show, which isn't on Spotify, but

3736
02:06:13,680 --> 02:06:16,320
if our show was on Spotify, they don't

3737
02:06:16,320 --> 02:06:19,700
accept the exact same technology from other hosting

3738
02:06:19,700 --> 02:06:20,240
companies.

3739
02:06:20,980 --> 02:06:23,060
You have to go to Spotify and use

3740
02:06:23,060 --> 02:06:24,140
their transcripts.

3741
02:06:27,750 --> 02:06:29,430
Well, that stinks.

3742
02:06:29,570 --> 02:06:30,210
It's stupid.

3743
02:06:30,450 --> 02:06:32,270
They think somehow that that's going to work

3744
02:06:32,270 --> 02:06:32,690
for them.

3745
02:06:33,770 --> 02:06:39,290
They're losing users every day with shenanigans like

3746
02:06:39,290 --> 02:06:39,710
this.

3747
02:06:40,590 --> 02:06:41,710
It's baffling.

3748
02:06:41,830 --> 02:06:44,230
It's baffling what big technology companies will do

3749
02:06:44,230 --> 02:06:44,730
sometimes.

3750
02:06:44,970 --> 02:06:46,550
I don't understand it.

3751
02:06:47,370 --> 02:06:51,510
Anyway, so Franco puts his heart, his soul,

3752
02:06:51,650 --> 02:06:55,150
his time, his talent into his app.

3753
02:06:55,210 --> 02:06:57,290
And we're very appreciative that he does that.

3754
02:06:57,290 --> 02:06:59,090
And we have many producers who like to

3755
02:06:59,090 --> 02:07:01,550
return value to this very podcast, which is

3756
02:07:01,550 --> 02:07:03,310
a value for value podcast.

3757
02:07:03,450 --> 02:07:05,830
Go look it up, valueforvalue.info, value number

3758
02:07:05,830 --> 02:07:08,350
for value.info, if you want the full

3759
02:07:08,350 --> 02:07:09,350
backstory on it.

3760
02:07:09,790 --> 02:07:11,130
Pioneered on this very podcast.

3761
02:07:11,450 --> 02:07:12,050
It's now a thing.

3762
02:07:12,190 --> 02:07:13,610
People just call everything value.

3763
02:07:13,730 --> 02:07:15,190
Oh, Patreon, value for value.

3764
02:07:15,330 --> 02:07:15,970
No, not.

3765
02:07:17,490 --> 02:07:20,270
We give you the full on experience for

3766
02:07:20,270 --> 02:07:20,510
free.

3767
02:07:20,850 --> 02:07:21,990
No, Patreon is not value for value.

3768
02:07:22,130 --> 02:07:25,070
Value for value has to have a variable

3769
02:07:25,070 --> 02:07:26,390
donation.

3770
02:07:26,390 --> 02:07:29,810
Yes, style, which we stumbled upon early on,

3771
02:07:29,890 --> 02:07:31,410
because people, if you remember, when we first

3772
02:07:31,410 --> 02:07:33,170
started, it's hard to get taking donations and

3773
02:07:33,170 --> 02:07:34,870
reading all the people that donate.

3774
02:07:35,010 --> 02:07:36,630
They always had these code numbers.

3775
02:07:36,810 --> 02:07:37,670
Yeah, numerology.

3776
02:07:37,910 --> 02:07:39,470
And they like to say, oh, yeah, I'm

3777
02:07:39,470 --> 02:07:40,770
donating 666.

3778
02:07:41,230 --> 02:07:42,430
I'm the devil.

3779
02:07:42,990 --> 02:07:44,830
69, 69, dudes.

3780
02:07:45,090 --> 02:07:46,290
69, 69.

3781
02:07:48,870 --> 02:07:49,310
Gotcha.

3782
02:07:50,990 --> 02:07:52,550
You guys, you said it.

3783
02:07:52,730 --> 02:07:54,430
You said 69, man.

3784
02:07:54,430 --> 02:07:57,430
Yeah, there's a lot of Beavis and Butthead

3785
02:07:57,430 --> 02:07:58,510
type stuff going on.

3786
02:07:59,110 --> 02:08:02,770
But besides that, we haven't gotten an Angigi

3787
02:08:02,770 --> 02:08:03,790
donation in a while.

3788
02:08:04,110 --> 02:08:06,930
We have the upside down eggs or eggs

3789
02:08:06,930 --> 02:08:07,650
over easy.

3790
02:08:07,970 --> 02:08:08,790
I mean, people like it.

3791
02:08:08,830 --> 02:08:09,830
They come up with stuff.

3792
02:08:09,910 --> 02:08:10,290
It sticks.

3793
02:08:10,390 --> 02:08:11,550
It becomes lore of the show.

3794
02:08:12,010 --> 02:08:14,230
But also, double nickels on the dime was,

3795
02:08:14,390 --> 02:08:15,730
for a couple of years, one of the

3796
02:08:15,730 --> 02:08:16,910
most popular donations.

3797
02:08:17,250 --> 02:08:19,150
Sergeant Fred started that double nickels on the

3798
02:08:19,150 --> 02:08:19,350
dime.

3799
02:08:19,750 --> 02:08:19,930
Yes.

3800
02:08:19,930 --> 02:08:28,070
So it's also so you can determine the

3801
02:08:28,070 --> 02:08:28,890
value yourself.

3802
02:08:29,030 --> 02:08:30,730
We're not roping you into something.

3803
02:08:31,430 --> 02:08:32,590
And it's like, I think that this was

3804
02:08:32,590 --> 02:08:33,610
a $12 show.

3805
02:08:33,810 --> 02:08:34,010
OK.

3806
02:08:34,330 --> 02:08:36,290
I think this was a $120 show.

3807
02:08:36,490 --> 02:08:36,670
Good.

3808
02:08:36,830 --> 02:08:39,230
And that all depends on you, not on

3809
02:08:39,230 --> 02:08:39,470
us.

3810
02:08:39,510 --> 02:08:41,370
We can't determine what the value is to

3811
02:08:41,370 --> 02:08:41,630
you.

3812
02:08:41,910 --> 02:08:43,350
But we do ask you to send some

3813
02:08:43,350 --> 02:08:43,670
back.

3814
02:08:43,790 --> 02:08:44,250
That's all.

3815
02:08:44,530 --> 02:08:46,290
And you can do that with time, talent,

3816
02:08:46,350 --> 02:08:46,790
or treasure.

3817
02:08:47,690 --> 02:08:49,230
We love it when people give us.

3818
02:08:49,230 --> 02:08:51,050
Even if you hate the show, you're getting

3819
02:08:51,050 --> 02:08:51,950
something out of it.

3820
02:08:52,070 --> 02:08:52,550
Yeah, hate.

3821
02:08:52,830 --> 02:08:54,230
Hate is a valid emotion.

3822
02:08:54,430 --> 02:08:56,090
It's valuable to some people.

3823
02:08:58,670 --> 02:09:02,890
We have artists who are now prompt jockeys,

3824
02:09:03,250 --> 02:09:05,490
most of them, with still some real artists

3825
02:09:05,490 --> 02:09:05,850
around.

3826
02:09:06,170 --> 02:09:08,390
But most of them have just fallen by

3827
02:09:08,390 --> 02:09:09,050
the wayside.

3828
02:09:09,790 --> 02:09:12,770
AI has definitely killed art on this show.

3829
02:09:14,010 --> 02:09:15,610
There's no doubt about it.

3830
02:09:15,990 --> 02:09:17,430
And I'm sad about it.

3831
02:09:17,910 --> 02:09:18,670
But on the other hand.

3832
02:09:18,670 --> 02:09:21,630
On the other hand, I'm happy because in

3833
02:09:21,630 --> 02:09:25,290
a weird roundabout way, we have discovered the

3834
02:09:25,290 --> 02:09:28,350
whole idea of the AI Music Awards, which.

3835
02:09:28,550 --> 02:09:29,050
Yes.

3836
02:09:29,890 --> 02:09:31,550
It was pre-show.

3837
02:09:32,350 --> 02:09:32,850
Yeah.

3838
02:09:32,970 --> 02:09:33,510
Hold on a second.

3839
02:09:33,650 --> 02:09:35,890
Let me register that right away.

3840
02:09:39,710 --> 02:09:40,710
AIMusicAwards.com.

3841
02:09:40,810 --> 02:09:41,790
Tell me that isn't taken.

3842
02:09:41,870 --> 02:09:42,850
You think that's going to be taken?

3843
02:09:43,970 --> 02:09:45,670
You think someone already got that one?

3844
02:09:49,770 --> 02:09:51,590
Did you go away for some reason?

3845
02:09:51,590 --> 02:09:52,310
No, I'm here.

3846
02:09:52,390 --> 02:09:53,610
I'm waiting for you to find out.

3847
02:09:53,930 --> 02:09:55,050
Someone already has it.

3848
02:09:56,230 --> 02:09:56,710
Was it?

3849
02:09:56,730 --> 02:09:57,630
When did they do it?

3850
02:09:57,670 --> 02:09:58,290
Was it today?

3851
02:09:58,390 --> 02:09:59,150
I can't tell.

3852
02:09:59,530 --> 02:10:00,810
No, I don't think it was today.

3853
02:10:01,230 --> 02:10:01,330
No.

3854
02:10:01,970 --> 02:10:02,550
Oh, man.

3855
02:10:02,570 --> 02:10:04,550
We'll come up with an alternate that works.

3856
02:10:04,590 --> 02:10:06,290
Yeah, because we need a name like the

3857
02:10:06,290 --> 02:10:06,810
Oscars.

3858
02:10:06,910 --> 02:10:08,110
It has to be, you know, like the

3859
02:10:08,110 --> 02:10:08,550
Dummies.

3860
02:10:09,110 --> 02:10:10,630
Maybe we call it the Dummies.

3861
02:10:10,850 --> 02:10:11,990
I don't want to call it the Dummies.

3862
02:10:12,030 --> 02:10:12,810
No, of course not.

3863
02:10:13,170 --> 02:10:14,030
Hey, guess what?

3864
02:10:14,510 --> 02:10:14,830
Newsflash.

3865
02:10:14,970 --> 02:10:15,910
It's never going to happen.

3866
02:10:16,370 --> 02:10:17,570
Because you know it's going to happen.

3867
02:10:17,670 --> 02:10:18,450
This is going to be it.

3868
02:10:18,590 --> 02:10:18,910
Never going to happen.

3869
02:10:18,910 --> 02:10:19,850
I can feel it.

3870
02:10:19,850 --> 02:10:22,290
If you don't get it going now, it's

3871
02:10:22,290 --> 02:10:23,490
never going to happen.

3872
02:10:23,950 --> 02:10:25,290
The A.I. Music Awards.

3873
02:10:25,290 --> 02:10:26,110
Nothing will happen.

3874
02:10:26,330 --> 02:10:26,790
Your host.

3875
02:10:27,330 --> 02:10:27,970
Your host.

3876
02:10:28,270 --> 02:10:33,650
This is perfect, actually, because you've been expunged

3877
02:10:33,650 --> 02:10:35,550
from the annals of MTV.

3878
02:10:36,090 --> 02:10:36,490
Yes.

3879
02:10:36,970 --> 02:10:40,690
For some reasons unknown to everybody except you.

3880
02:10:42,750 --> 02:10:46,710
Because you're smart enough to have signed up

3881
02:10:46,710 --> 02:10:49,230
for MTV.com or something like that.

3882
02:10:49,230 --> 02:10:50,390
You got irked about it.

3883
02:10:50,490 --> 02:10:51,210
Whatever it was.

3884
02:10:51,290 --> 02:10:51,970
They didn't like that.

3885
02:10:52,050 --> 02:10:53,510
And then they sued me and I counter

3886
02:10:53,510 --> 02:10:54,010
sued them.

3887
02:10:54,090 --> 02:10:54,830
And then we settled.

3888
02:10:55,110 --> 02:10:57,690
And then you were expunged.

3889
02:10:57,770 --> 02:10:58,590
And I'm expunged.

3890
02:10:58,990 --> 02:10:59,610
I'm done.

3891
02:11:00,030 --> 02:11:00,450
I'm out.

3892
02:11:00,650 --> 02:11:01,090
Get out.

3893
02:11:01,470 --> 02:11:02,150
I'm Emeritus.

3894
02:11:03,730 --> 02:11:04,570
VJ Emeritus.

3895
02:11:04,790 --> 02:11:06,310
A bunch of free musical shows where they

3896
02:11:06,310 --> 02:11:08,030
had a lot of Satanism going on.

3897
02:11:08,130 --> 02:11:08,970
That was dynamite.

3898
02:11:09,090 --> 02:11:09,350
Good times.

3899
02:11:09,350 --> 02:11:10,590
You're missing out on that.

3900
02:11:10,650 --> 02:11:11,250
Good times.

3901
02:11:11,390 --> 02:11:11,550
Yeah.

3902
02:11:12,610 --> 02:11:14,530
We should have a Satan Award, too.

3903
02:11:15,730 --> 02:11:16,930
And a Jesus Award.

3904
02:11:16,930 --> 02:11:19,790
Most satanic AI song.

3905
02:11:22,010 --> 02:11:22,930
Most of them.

3906
02:11:23,130 --> 02:11:25,170
So our artists are always there trying to

3907
02:11:25,170 --> 02:11:27,670
give us something that looks cool, funky, funny,

3908
02:11:27,950 --> 02:11:29,550
interesting, grabs attention.

3909
02:11:29,790 --> 02:11:31,910
Or as my lovely wife, Tina, would say,

3910
02:11:32,070 --> 02:11:35,190
oh, oh, one of those again.

3911
02:11:36,590 --> 02:11:37,170
Like what?

3912
02:11:37,350 --> 02:11:38,770
Because of the one we just did?

3913
02:11:38,830 --> 02:11:39,130
Yeah.

3914
02:11:39,710 --> 02:11:40,710
That you picked?

3915
02:11:41,310 --> 02:11:42,310
I did pick it.

3916
02:11:42,350 --> 02:11:44,110
I said it was the best one.

3917
02:11:44,190 --> 02:11:44,870
I thought it was good.

3918
02:11:44,870 --> 02:11:47,310
I always get blamed for picking the cheesecake.

3919
02:11:47,490 --> 02:11:47,950
But no, no.

3920
02:11:48,110 --> 02:11:49,950
This time I wasn't even for this one.

3921
02:11:50,110 --> 02:11:52,330
I don't know if I admitted it was

3922
02:11:52,330 --> 02:11:52,690
me.

3923
02:11:52,810 --> 02:11:53,530
You weren't for it.

3924
02:11:53,590 --> 02:11:54,210
Yes, you were.

3925
02:11:54,310 --> 02:11:55,270
You said, OK.

3926
02:11:56,170 --> 02:11:58,110
I did say OK after a while because

3927
02:11:58,110 --> 02:11:59,850
all the other stuff was like you had

3928
02:11:59,850 --> 02:12:00,170
an argument.

3929
02:12:00,170 --> 02:12:00,790
It was horrible.

3930
02:12:01,010 --> 02:12:02,310
Everything except this piece.

3931
02:12:02,470 --> 02:12:02,970
Oh, OK.

3932
02:12:03,150 --> 02:12:05,150
So Darren O'Neill did the cheesecake.

3933
02:12:05,470 --> 02:12:07,750
But what I liked was the USG wants

3934
02:12:07,750 --> 02:12:09,510
you because that was relevant to the show.

3935
02:12:10,130 --> 02:12:10,390
Right.

3936
02:12:10,750 --> 02:12:14,070
And she looked like an American government issue.

3937
02:12:15,250 --> 02:12:15,610
Yeah.

3938
02:12:15,730 --> 02:12:16,810
It looks a bit like my wife.

3939
02:12:16,810 --> 02:12:17,750
You didn't bring that up.

3940
02:12:17,790 --> 02:12:19,250
She looks a bit like Tina, actually.

3941
02:12:20,110 --> 02:12:21,030
Oh, that's what it was.

3942
02:12:21,050 --> 02:12:21,170
Yeah.

3943
02:12:21,190 --> 02:12:22,230
You said it looked like Tina.

3944
02:12:22,350 --> 02:12:23,990
So you wanted to put Tina on the

3945
02:12:23,990 --> 02:12:24,630
cover.

3946
02:12:26,130 --> 02:12:27,090
And that's right.

3947
02:12:27,430 --> 02:12:28,430
Thank you for remembering.

3948
02:12:28,830 --> 02:12:30,390
That's a good that's a good excuse that

3949
02:12:30,390 --> 02:12:32,370
you just dreamed up to keep Tina off

3950
02:12:32,370 --> 02:12:32,790
your back.

3951
02:12:32,910 --> 02:12:33,470
Good one.

3952
02:12:33,550 --> 02:12:34,090
It's a good bit.

3953
02:12:34,410 --> 02:12:35,650
But now that I'm looking at it, I'm

3954
02:12:35,650 --> 02:12:36,750
like, oh, it does look a bit like

3955
02:12:36,750 --> 02:12:36,950
Tina.

3956
02:12:37,530 --> 02:12:39,330
So that was Darren O'Neill's entry.

3957
02:12:39,430 --> 02:12:41,890
There were other entries which we discussed and

3958
02:12:41,890 --> 02:12:43,090
we're going to look at them right now.

3959
02:12:43,090 --> 02:12:44,850
I would say a tip of the hat

3960
02:12:44,850 --> 02:12:47,650
for the climate protection from Capitalist Agenda.

3961
02:12:49,410 --> 02:12:51,270
But it was all way too small.

3962
02:12:51,430 --> 02:12:52,750
But he did a lot of really.

3963
02:12:53,490 --> 02:12:55,910
I mean, so it was a condom wrapper.

3964
02:12:56,730 --> 02:12:59,230
And it had climate protection, no agenda, extra

3965
02:12:59,230 --> 02:12:59,990
large, of course.

3966
02:13:00,110 --> 02:13:00,590
Curry Dvorak.

3967
02:13:00,870 --> 02:13:02,050
Actually, that was your first pick.

3968
02:13:02,150 --> 02:13:02,390
Yes.

3969
02:13:02,450 --> 02:13:03,670
Because I had warming sensation.

3970
02:13:04,190 --> 02:13:05,030
What was my comment?

3971
02:13:05,550 --> 02:13:06,250
Too small.

3972
02:13:06,290 --> 02:13:06,750
Too small.

3973
02:13:06,970 --> 02:13:07,370
No, it wasn't.

3974
02:13:07,370 --> 02:13:08,570
Couldn't read anything on there.

3975
02:13:08,610 --> 02:13:08,850
I know.

3976
02:13:08,890 --> 02:13:11,070
But when you when you embiggen it, there's

3977
02:13:11,070 --> 02:13:11,270
good.

3978
02:13:11,370 --> 02:13:12,450
There's funny stuff in there.

3979
02:13:12,450 --> 02:13:13,750
It was humor.

3980
02:13:13,790 --> 02:13:16,350
Then you wanted to also continue to scold,

3981
02:13:16,670 --> 02:13:17,490
scare a manga.

3982
02:13:17,710 --> 02:13:21,130
You wanted Bill's you wanted Bill's kink room.

3983
02:13:22,410 --> 02:13:22,890
What?

3984
02:13:23,090 --> 02:13:23,310
Yeah.

3985
02:13:23,690 --> 02:13:25,810
The one with the cat and the and

3986
02:13:25,810 --> 02:13:28,390
the young girl and then the torture bed

3987
02:13:28,390 --> 02:13:30,330
with a drill and all kinds of stuff.

3988
02:13:30,470 --> 02:13:31,870
That's what you were looking at.

3989
02:13:32,270 --> 02:13:33,710
I'm like, what's wrong with you?

3990
02:13:35,550 --> 02:13:36,510
Bill's kink.

3991
02:13:36,730 --> 02:13:36,950
Yeah.

3992
02:13:37,030 --> 02:13:37,350
I don't know.

3993
02:13:37,410 --> 02:13:38,250
You're making that up.

3994
02:13:38,330 --> 02:13:39,030
No, I'm not.

3995
02:13:39,030 --> 02:13:42,170
I liked Nick the rat's duty button.

3996
02:13:42,890 --> 02:13:43,290
Yeah.

3997
02:13:43,510 --> 02:13:44,590
You thought I was too busy.

3998
02:13:45,090 --> 02:13:45,630
Yeah, it was very.

3999
02:13:45,750 --> 02:13:47,130
I think I actually use that.

4000
02:13:47,310 --> 02:13:49,090
And I also like the peanut gallery from

4001
02:13:49,090 --> 02:13:50,590
Darren O'Neill, but you didn't like that

4002
02:13:50,590 --> 02:13:50,910
at all.

4003
02:13:50,990 --> 02:13:51,710
His two AI.

4004
02:13:52,170 --> 02:13:52,450
Yeah.

4005
02:13:53,870 --> 02:13:56,010
I actually know we ended up having to

4006
02:13:56,010 --> 02:13:58,030
pick this one because it was relevant.

4007
02:13:58,370 --> 02:14:00,030
You know, you you were jacked up about

4008
02:14:00,030 --> 02:14:01,890
it and I didn't see anything really wrong

4009
02:14:01,890 --> 02:14:02,210
with it.

4010
02:14:02,370 --> 02:14:04,210
I actually use the duty button for the

4011
02:14:04,210 --> 02:14:04,750
bat signals.

4012
02:14:04,910 --> 02:14:06,450
They and yeah, you like to get hopped

4013
02:14:06,450 --> 02:14:07,370
up by Ness works.

4014
02:14:07,910 --> 02:14:10,330
Which we were both like, yeah, it was.

4015
02:14:10,550 --> 02:14:11,410
I don't know.

4016
02:14:12,050 --> 02:14:13,410
And then there was a lot to choose

4017
02:14:13,410 --> 02:14:13,670
from.

4018
02:14:13,750 --> 02:14:14,270
There was that.

4019
02:14:14,410 --> 02:14:17,430
But all this stuff, luminance has gone down

4020
02:14:17,430 --> 02:14:18,990
by 20 percent.

4021
02:14:19,110 --> 02:14:20,770
Oh, unbelievable.

4022
02:14:20,990 --> 02:14:23,050
You pay now by digital to one one

4023
02:14:23,050 --> 02:14:23,750
man.

4024
02:14:23,910 --> 02:14:24,230
Yeah.

4025
02:14:24,330 --> 02:14:26,410
Which is the the joke that we use

4026
02:14:26,410 --> 02:14:26,950
on the show.

4027
02:14:27,270 --> 02:14:28,890
It's all just mud.

4028
02:14:29,350 --> 02:14:30,530
It's mud, man.

4029
02:14:31,890 --> 02:14:33,670
I mean, there's another one that I saw.

4030
02:14:33,670 --> 02:14:37,250
Yeah, there's one down for a JIP misspelled

4031
02:14:37,250 --> 02:14:38,230
JIP.

4032
02:14:38,810 --> 02:14:38,910
Yeah.

4033
02:14:39,110 --> 02:14:40,930
From again, digital to one one.

4034
02:14:41,050 --> 02:14:42,810
He should he should reset his system.

4035
02:14:43,150 --> 02:14:46,050
Another mud, which is mud is all brown.

4036
02:14:48,370 --> 02:14:50,050
I'm telling you, it's no good.

4037
02:14:51,430 --> 02:14:53,350
No, these Darren has got his reset because

4038
02:14:53,350 --> 02:14:56,250
even though the USG one shoe piece, the

4039
02:14:56,250 --> 02:14:58,670
white background is not white.

4040
02:14:59,110 --> 02:14:59,770
No, it's not.

4041
02:15:00,890 --> 02:15:02,250
It's kind of a pinkish.

4042
02:15:02,250 --> 02:15:04,270
So thank you to all of our artists

4043
02:15:04,270 --> 02:15:06,790
for a diligently prompting away.

4044
02:15:07,970 --> 02:15:10,990
And sorry, I'm not going to let it

4045
02:15:10,990 --> 02:15:13,530
destroy the end of show mixes, but it

4046
02:15:13,530 --> 02:15:16,010
will be an exit strategy for us with

4047
02:15:16,010 --> 02:15:19,310
the music awards hosted by Adam Curry and

4048
02:15:19,310 --> 02:15:19,910
John C.

4049
02:15:19,950 --> 02:15:20,250
Dvorak.

4050
02:15:20,330 --> 02:15:22,990
Now, here's your host, Nick, the rat.

4051
02:15:24,890 --> 02:15:27,090
So we want to thank our producers.

4052
02:15:27,090 --> 02:15:29,670
This is the treasure portion of the time,

4053
02:15:29,790 --> 02:15:30,610
talent and treasure.

4054
02:15:31,170 --> 02:15:32,510
And the idea is.

4055
02:15:33,390 --> 02:15:34,570
We thank everybody.

4056
02:15:34,670 --> 02:15:35,670
Fifty dollars and above.

4057
02:15:36,230 --> 02:15:38,650
But if you support us, which is just

4058
02:15:38,650 --> 02:15:41,470
so appreciated with two hundred dollars or more,

4059
02:15:41,910 --> 02:15:44,350
we will give you a title and a

4060
02:15:44,350 --> 02:15:46,830
real Hollywood title because we can do that.

4061
02:15:47,170 --> 02:15:49,790
And they are recognized and legit because you

4062
02:15:49,790 --> 02:15:51,490
can go to IMDB dot com and use

4063
02:15:51,490 --> 02:15:51,670
them.

4064
02:15:52,930 --> 02:15:54,750
And you can put it anywhere you want.

4065
02:15:54,810 --> 02:15:56,850
Call yourself an associate executive producer, the No

4066
02:15:56,850 --> 02:15:57,470
Agenda show.

4067
02:15:57,890 --> 02:15:59,190
And we'll read your note.

4068
02:15:59,190 --> 02:16:01,830
Now, the notes are way too long.

4069
02:16:01,990 --> 02:16:03,330
So we're going to have to cut these

4070
02:16:03,330 --> 02:16:04,370
down on the fly.

4071
02:16:05,050 --> 02:16:06,530
Three hundred dollars or above.

4072
02:16:06,970 --> 02:16:09,150
You become an executive producer for the episode

4073
02:16:09,150 --> 02:16:10,850
and we will read your note as well.

4074
02:16:10,950 --> 02:16:14,130
And so we have our old friend back

4075
02:16:14,130 --> 02:16:16,590
at the top with twenty six oh six.

4076
02:16:17,370 --> 02:16:18,790
And that is the correct number.

4077
02:16:18,870 --> 02:16:20,110
We know it's code for something.

4078
02:16:20,710 --> 02:16:22,190
Something's getting blowed up somewhere.

4079
02:16:22,410 --> 02:16:24,590
Seronomous of Dogpatch and Lower Slobovia.

4080
02:16:24,590 --> 02:16:27,990
And he sent a note from Seronomous of

4081
02:16:27,990 --> 02:16:29,630
Dogpatch and Lower Slobovia.

4082
02:16:30,250 --> 02:16:32,590
John's favorite type of donation letter.

4083
02:16:33,150 --> 02:16:34,209
Horizontal line.

4084
02:16:34,690 --> 02:16:35,730
Horizontal line.

4085
02:16:36,250 --> 02:16:39,490
No jingles, no karma in closing Muslim funds

4086
02:16:39,490 --> 02:16:41,430
to offset the Jewish shortfall.

4087
02:16:43,510 --> 02:16:46,950
I I have to say this Muslim money,

4088
02:16:47,730 --> 02:16:48,330
Muslim money.

4089
02:16:48,330 --> 02:16:50,190
He sent one bill.

4090
02:16:51,490 --> 02:16:54,910
A bunch of one dinar, two dinar bills

4091
02:16:54,910 --> 02:16:59,730
from Oman, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait.

4092
02:17:00,010 --> 02:17:00,690
Oh, that's cool.

4093
02:17:01,190 --> 02:17:04,709
He said actual Muslim money, Kuwait, Dubai.

4094
02:17:04,950 --> 02:17:07,770
He has like a pile of about seven

4095
02:17:07,770 --> 02:17:09,730
bills from all the Arab states.

4096
02:17:11,030 --> 02:17:12,290
Did he have one from Oman?

4097
02:17:13,230 --> 02:17:15,370
I'm pretty sure there's an Omani bill in

4098
02:17:15,370 --> 02:17:15,530
there.

4099
02:17:15,610 --> 02:17:17,010
Yeah, he might be a negotiator.

4100
02:17:18,330 --> 02:17:19,330
He might be.

4101
02:17:19,570 --> 02:17:21,809
All I know is that you don't get

4102
02:17:21,809 --> 02:17:23,350
these bills unless you go there.

4103
02:17:24,010 --> 02:17:25,490
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

4104
02:17:25,530 --> 02:17:28,190
So he's and they're used.

4105
02:17:28,350 --> 02:17:29,590
It's not like a bunch of new money.

4106
02:17:29,629 --> 02:17:30,870
I mean, it would have been nicer if

4107
02:17:30,870 --> 02:17:33,670
they were better quality bills like his hundred,

4108
02:17:33,770 --> 02:17:34,670
his hundoes.

4109
02:17:35,030 --> 02:17:36,809
Most of them are brand new, right from

4110
02:17:36,809 --> 02:17:39,230
the from the U.S. government, right from

4111
02:17:39,230 --> 02:17:42,670
the Fed, right from the pallet and right

4112
02:17:42,670 --> 02:17:43,370
off the pallet.

4113
02:17:43,430 --> 02:17:43,770
Right off.

4114
02:17:43,910 --> 02:17:45,570
That's where the pallet money went.

4115
02:17:45,690 --> 02:17:46,330
I got it.

4116
02:17:47,110 --> 02:17:51,969
Either that or Saddam Hussein's piles that were

4117
02:17:51,969 --> 02:17:53,389
found by the army.

4118
02:17:53,950 --> 02:17:54,430
I love that.

4119
02:17:54,430 --> 02:17:55,809
So we don't know where this is coming

4120
02:17:55,809 --> 02:17:56,010
from.

4121
02:17:56,150 --> 02:17:57,709
But but I got a kick out of

4122
02:17:57,709 --> 02:17:59,070
all these bills and I never seen a

4123
02:17:59,070 --> 02:18:00,250
lot of these because I've been to the

4124
02:18:00,250 --> 02:18:01,670
Middle East, but I haven't been to every

4125
02:18:01,670 --> 02:18:03,049
country in the Middle East.

4126
02:18:03,110 --> 02:18:05,730
I've never actually been in Saudi Arabia.

4127
02:18:08,730 --> 02:18:11,090
So I thought that was cute.

4128
02:18:11,230 --> 02:18:13,209
Nice, nice, real Muslim money.

4129
02:18:13,450 --> 02:18:14,030
Nice touch.

4130
02:18:14,049 --> 02:18:14,969
Thank you very much, sir.

4131
02:18:14,969 --> 02:18:18,469
Dogpatch and lower Slobovia, one of our biggest,

4132
02:18:18,730 --> 02:18:19,930
longest standing patrons.

4133
02:18:20,129 --> 02:18:21,709
And we appreciate you very much for that.

4134
02:18:24,290 --> 02:18:25,230
OK, oh, I'm sorry.

4135
02:18:25,350 --> 02:18:27,610
Oh, I hate to tell you to pass

4136
02:18:27,610 --> 02:18:28,150
this off.

4137
02:18:28,670 --> 02:18:31,490
Why do you need to fix your stuff?

4138
02:18:32,350 --> 02:18:33,650
I don't need to fix anything.

4139
02:18:33,770 --> 02:18:34,690
I love doing this.

4140
02:18:35,150 --> 02:18:36,850
I love my truck and I love what

4141
02:18:36,850 --> 02:18:37,129
I do.

4142
02:18:37,170 --> 02:18:38,670
I can make it work.

4143
02:18:39,049 --> 02:18:41,690
It's from from clear oaky.

4144
02:18:42,450 --> 02:18:44,270
I just had to click on these boxes

4145
02:18:44,270 --> 02:18:45,410
in Bakersfield.

4146
02:18:45,410 --> 02:18:47,709
And he came in a base field, California,

4147
02:18:47,850 --> 02:18:49,730
and he came in with an even thousand

4148
02:18:49,730 --> 02:18:50,190
bucks.

4149
02:18:50,650 --> 02:18:53,410
OK, he writes, my company has been working

4150
02:18:53,410 --> 02:18:55,750
on the California HS, a high speed rail

4151
02:18:55,750 --> 02:18:59,530
in the Central Valley since since around twenty

4152
02:18:59,530 --> 02:19:01,750
six, twenty six.

4153
02:19:01,889 --> 02:19:03,750
How long does it take?

4154
02:19:03,830 --> 02:19:06,370
And it was already going since 2009, wasn't

4155
02:19:06,370 --> 02:19:06,590
it?

4156
02:19:07,170 --> 02:19:09,170
This is a scam of scams.

4157
02:19:09,290 --> 02:19:09,450
Yeah.

4158
02:19:10,690 --> 02:19:13,030
When we did the meetup years ago, almost

4159
02:19:13,030 --> 02:19:14,350
10 years ago in Sacramento.

4160
02:19:15,410 --> 02:19:16,950
There was a high speed rail guy there.

4161
02:19:16,990 --> 02:19:18,270
And he says the whole thing is just

4162
02:19:18,270 --> 02:19:20,790
based on who who can buy the property

4163
02:19:20,790 --> 02:19:21,790
ahead of where they're going to put the

4164
02:19:21,790 --> 02:19:22,170
tracks.

4165
02:19:22,270 --> 02:19:23,510
And then they scam the state.

4166
02:19:23,770 --> 02:19:23,870
Sure.

4167
02:19:24,469 --> 02:19:25,910
The whole thing is a domain.

4168
02:19:26,350 --> 02:19:26,830
All of that.

4169
02:19:27,870 --> 02:19:29,790
I don't think the project is feasible in

4170
02:19:29,790 --> 02:19:30,709
general, he writes.

4171
02:19:31,370 --> 02:19:33,889
And the way they are managing the construction

4172
02:19:33,889 --> 02:19:35,410
is preposterous.

4173
02:19:36,270 --> 02:19:38,170
I vote against the project every time I

4174
02:19:38,170 --> 02:19:39,950
get the chance when the project comes up

4175
02:19:39,950 --> 02:19:41,010
in a conversation.

4176
02:19:41,010 --> 02:19:44,469
The other person usually says, wow, are they

4177
02:19:44,469 --> 02:19:45,670
still working on that?

4178
02:19:46,690 --> 02:19:47,690
Of course, I just did.

4179
02:19:48,050 --> 02:19:49,830
And they ask how I could be part

4180
02:19:49,830 --> 02:19:51,750
of it, to which I respond.

4181
02:19:51,890 --> 02:19:53,490
If my company doesn't work on it, a

4182
02:19:53,490 --> 02:19:55,170
company from L.A. or San Francisco will

4183
02:19:55,170 --> 02:19:57,290
come in, steal my employees and work on

4184
02:19:57,290 --> 02:19:57,650
it anyway.

4185
02:19:57,730 --> 02:19:58,910
So I just take the money and keep

4186
02:19:58,910 --> 02:19:59,310
it local.

4187
02:19:59,930 --> 02:20:00,030
Wow.

4188
02:20:00,770 --> 02:20:01,190
However.

4189
02:20:02,370 --> 02:20:04,330
It looks like the gravy train may have

4190
02:20:04,330 --> 02:20:07,210
been derailed, puns intended with the audit by

4191
02:20:07,210 --> 02:20:09,030
the U.S. D.O.T. A notice

4192
02:20:09,030 --> 02:20:10,670
from U.S. D.O.T., Department of

4193
02:20:10,670 --> 02:20:15,410
Transportation, the California High Speed Rail Authority, CHSRA,

4194
02:20:15,650 --> 02:20:20,390
for you out there following the acronyms, dated

4195
02:20:20,390 --> 02:20:27,610
to 2025, recent, that CHSRA must proceed at

4196
02:20:27,610 --> 02:20:31,090
its own risk because if a violation of

4197
02:20:31,090 --> 02:20:34,430
the DOT-CHISRA agreement is found during the

4198
02:20:34,430 --> 02:20:37,790
audit, cost reimbursement will be retroactive.

4199
02:20:38,650 --> 02:20:40,270
In other words, you're going to have to

4200
02:20:40,270 --> 02:20:43,730
return the money, even if you spent it.

4201
02:20:44,270 --> 02:20:47,090
The project is routinely four to six months

4202
02:20:47,090 --> 02:20:49,790
behind on their payments to us, to a

4203
02:20:49,790 --> 02:20:50,650
subcontractor.

4204
02:20:50,650 --> 02:20:52,690
So I'm going to be making some calls

4205
02:20:52,690 --> 02:20:55,450
to our prime and probably our local state

4206
02:20:55,450 --> 02:20:57,290
representative to see if my company may be

4207
02:20:57,290 --> 02:20:59,670
left holding the bag for six months of

4208
02:20:59,670 --> 02:21:02,930
payroll if the plug is pulled.

4209
02:21:03,170 --> 02:21:03,550
Oh, no.

4210
02:21:03,550 --> 02:21:05,010
This could come up as a piece of

4211
02:21:05,010 --> 02:21:08,890
leverage in the brewing Trump-Newsom rivalry.

4212
02:21:09,190 --> 02:21:10,790
Well, that's the more you know right there.

4213
02:21:11,370 --> 02:21:13,410
And then he has a couple of newspaper

4214
02:21:13,410 --> 02:21:16,330
articles that they link to, which I didn't

4215
02:21:16,330 --> 02:21:16,690
read.

4216
02:21:18,310 --> 02:21:19,950
And then the last line you're going to

4217
02:21:19,950 --> 02:21:21,110
have, he says, link to the audit and

4218
02:21:21,110 --> 02:21:23,630
correspondency page 305, blah, blah, blah.

4219
02:21:24,630 --> 02:21:25,930
And there may be something after that, but

4220
02:21:25,930 --> 02:21:27,230
that I can't get to.

4221
02:21:29,270 --> 02:21:30,730
No, I can get to it.

4222
02:21:30,770 --> 02:21:31,230
I can get to it.

4223
02:21:31,970 --> 02:21:32,450
That's it.

4224
02:21:32,450 --> 02:21:33,610
He just has another link.

4225
02:21:33,910 --> 02:21:35,510
And he says, if you'd like more on

4226
02:21:35,510 --> 02:21:36,510
this, I'm happy to provide.

4227
02:21:36,670 --> 02:21:37,190
Train's good.

4228
02:21:37,290 --> 02:21:37,990
Plane's bad.

4229
02:21:38,150 --> 02:21:38,810
Clear, Okie.

4230
02:21:39,690 --> 02:21:41,170
Oh, my God.

4231
02:21:42,530 --> 02:21:44,070
Listen to that horn.

4232
02:21:45,010 --> 02:21:46,730
By the way, I was talking to a

4233
02:21:46,730 --> 02:21:49,950
guy this morning who was an electrical contractor,

4234
02:21:50,130 --> 02:21:52,530
you know, and I say, hey, how's business?

4235
02:21:52,990 --> 02:21:55,310
He says, he's dead, Jim.

4236
02:21:56,010 --> 02:21:59,770
He says, nothing is being built in Fredericksburg,

4237
02:21:59,910 --> 02:22:01,910
which is kind of crazy.

4238
02:22:02,930 --> 02:22:05,170
He says all the all the big electrical

4239
02:22:05,170 --> 02:22:08,210
contractors, they're laying people off left and right

4240
02:22:08,210 --> 02:22:09,810
and Boot Ranch.

4241
02:22:09,930 --> 02:22:12,570
Now, Boot Ranch is about 15 minutes away.

4242
02:22:12,710 --> 02:22:16,730
That's where that's where the real mega homes

4243
02:22:16,730 --> 02:22:17,030
are.

4244
02:22:17,430 --> 02:22:20,350
There's 18 homes for sale between five and

4245
02:22:20,350 --> 02:22:21,610
twelve million dollars.

4246
02:22:21,970 --> 02:22:23,710
So no one's building out there either.

4247
02:22:23,950 --> 02:22:24,770
Something is up.

4248
02:22:25,310 --> 02:22:26,290
I said, what's going on?

4249
02:22:26,330 --> 02:22:27,370
I don't know.

4250
02:22:27,370 --> 02:22:31,330
Says the banks won't lend the commercial, no

4251
02:22:31,330 --> 02:22:32,350
more commercial loans.

4252
02:22:32,570 --> 02:22:34,370
That was he said, that's part of it.

4253
02:22:35,470 --> 02:22:36,750
I don't know what that means.

4254
02:22:37,250 --> 02:22:38,530
It doesn't sound good.

4255
02:22:39,730 --> 02:22:41,870
Yeah, a little bit of tip.

4256
02:22:42,150 --> 02:22:44,910
You give that to Horowitz so you can

4257
02:22:44,910 --> 02:22:45,690
buy some calls.

4258
02:22:46,530 --> 02:22:48,250
We go to Eric Tolbert.

4259
02:22:48,850 --> 02:22:49,610
Or Putz.

4260
02:22:50,190 --> 02:22:51,010
Putz, maybe.

4261
02:22:52,410 --> 02:22:54,010
He's in Topeka, Kansas.

4262
02:22:54,150 --> 02:22:55,310
One thousand dollars.

4263
02:22:55,770 --> 02:22:56,390
Hello, gentlemen.

4264
02:22:56,390 --> 02:22:58,530
Please find and close my donation of one

4265
02:22:58,530 --> 02:23:00,350
thousand dollars to cover my Ph.D. in

4266
02:23:00,350 --> 02:23:03,470
media deconstruction, my instant night and my executive

4267
02:23:03,470 --> 02:23:06,410
producer credit for so 1775 on Sunday, June

4268
02:23:06,410 --> 02:23:07,190
22nd.

4269
02:23:07,410 --> 02:23:09,330
Please also include me on the birthday list.

4270
02:23:09,410 --> 02:23:11,510
My birthday is June 21st, 1963.

4271
02:23:12,770 --> 02:23:14,130
My Ph.D. will be in the name

4272
02:23:14,130 --> 02:23:15,590
of Eric James Tolbert.

4273
02:23:15,670 --> 02:23:16,990
My birthday is June 21st.

4274
02:23:17,330 --> 02:23:20,330
Please bestow the name Sir Not Appearing in

4275
02:23:20,330 --> 02:23:21,830
this film for my knighthood.

4276
02:23:22,390 --> 02:23:23,390
For jingles.

4277
02:23:23,630 --> 02:23:24,710
I'm sorry, I missed that.

4278
02:23:24,710 --> 02:23:27,250
I would like an Al Sharpton.

4279
02:23:27,750 --> 02:23:29,830
And he says my favorite is Resist We

4280
02:23:29,830 --> 02:23:30,190
Much.

4281
02:23:30,310 --> 02:23:32,710
Well, we can obviously do that for you.

4282
02:23:34,370 --> 02:23:38,110
And please acknowledge my better half Dame Bessie.

4283
02:23:38,230 --> 02:23:39,830
The T is silent, if possible.

4284
02:23:40,210 --> 02:23:42,430
Her name is often mistaken for Betsy, hence

4285
02:23:42,430 --> 02:23:42,830
the joke.

4286
02:23:43,210 --> 02:23:45,970
We realize at her daming that in print

4287
02:23:45,970 --> 02:23:47,790
it wasn't as funny, although you take the

4288
02:23:47,790 --> 02:23:49,310
T out of the front and back of

4289
02:23:49,310 --> 02:23:50,150
our name was hilarious.

4290
02:23:51,970 --> 02:23:53,430
OK, did we do that?

4291
02:23:53,510 --> 02:23:53,870
Probably.

4292
02:23:53,870 --> 02:23:54,810
Thank you for all you do.

4293
02:23:54,910 --> 02:23:56,550
He says, Eric, and he also wants an

4294
02:23:56,550 --> 02:23:57,090
F karma.

4295
02:23:57,250 --> 02:23:58,390
So we will do that for you.

4296
02:23:58,450 --> 02:24:00,150
And we'll see you later on at the

4297
02:24:00,150 --> 02:24:01,470
night and Dame Roundtable.

4298
02:24:01,870 --> 02:24:03,350
Resist We Much.

4299
02:24:04,090 --> 02:24:08,990
We must and we will much about that

4300
02:24:08,990 --> 02:24:10,270
be committed.

4301
02:24:14,930 --> 02:24:16,570
You've got karma.

4302
02:24:21,870 --> 02:24:24,750
Huh, Archduchess Kim Keeper of the Nutty Fluffers

4303
02:24:24,750 --> 02:24:27,770
Parts Unknown came with five hundred bucks and

4304
02:24:27,770 --> 02:24:28,670
she wrote a note.

4305
02:24:28,970 --> 02:24:32,730
That is a little piece of paper you

4306
02:24:32,730 --> 02:24:33,070
can hear.

4307
02:24:33,390 --> 02:24:35,970
I can hear ITM, Adam and John Jingle.

4308
02:24:36,090 --> 02:24:37,370
Screw your freedom, little girl.

4309
02:24:37,470 --> 02:24:37,610
Yay.

4310
02:24:37,730 --> 02:24:40,130
And F-22 karma switcheroo.

4311
02:24:40,210 --> 02:24:41,670
It says such a rue.

4312
02:24:42,670 --> 02:24:44,610
But I think she means switcheroo.

4313
02:24:44,610 --> 02:24:47,210
For my dad, Knight John, protector of the

4314
02:24:47,210 --> 02:24:51,250
pocket protectors and keeper of his 15 grandchildren.

4315
02:24:51,750 --> 02:24:52,050
Wow.

4316
02:24:52,270 --> 02:24:53,850
Happy birthday and Father's Day, Dad.

4317
02:24:54,150 --> 02:24:55,170
You are amazing.

4318
02:24:55,810 --> 02:24:57,690
What do you get a dad that has

4319
02:24:57,690 --> 02:24:58,210
everything?

4320
02:24:58,350 --> 02:25:00,470
You get him a producer credit on the

4321
02:25:00,470 --> 02:25:02,190
best podcast in the universe.

4322
02:25:02,450 --> 02:25:03,070
Now you're talking.

4323
02:25:03,730 --> 02:25:05,030
Thank you for all that you have done

4324
02:25:05,030 --> 02:25:05,390
for us.

4325
02:25:05,510 --> 02:25:06,450
Love you, Dad.

4326
02:25:06,910 --> 02:25:08,330
You're a good daughter.

4327
02:25:08,590 --> 02:25:11,370
You're not the good daughter.

4328
02:25:12,110 --> 02:25:14,170
It's the good one.

4329
02:25:14,790 --> 02:25:18,710
Archduchess Kim Keeper of the Nutty Fluffers.

4330
02:25:18,910 --> 02:25:19,910
Screw your freedom.

4331
02:25:22,830 --> 02:25:27,190
You've got karma.

4332
02:25:29,890 --> 02:25:31,790
And very nice signature, by the way.

4333
02:25:31,910 --> 02:25:33,050
She's very nice handwriting, too.

4334
02:25:33,370 --> 02:25:34,630
Although it wasn't handwritten.

4335
02:25:34,750 --> 02:25:35,450
It was just signature.

4336
02:25:35,710 --> 02:25:40,950
Coucho Woodworking comes in with $350.93 from

4337
02:25:40,950 --> 02:25:42,470
Redondo Beach, California.

4338
02:25:42,470 --> 02:25:43,910
Thank you for your courage.

4339
02:25:44,250 --> 02:25:47,690
I hope John received my premium banquet board.

4340
02:25:48,630 --> 02:25:48,850
Yes.

4341
02:25:50,350 --> 02:25:51,430
Yes, I got it.

4342
02:25:51,530 --> 02:25:52,630
It's dynamite.

4343
02:25:53,090 --> 02:25:54,950
A premium banquet board.

4344
02:25:55,190 --> 02:25:56,830
How big is the banquet board?

4345
02:25:56,970 --> 02:25:58,190
It's not that really that big.

4346
02:25:58,310 --> 02:26:00,530
It's not like unless I'm mistaken.

4347
02:26:01,210 --> 02:26:03,490
It's about two and a half feet by

4348
02:26:03,490 --> 02:26:04,050
two and a half feet.

4349
02:26:04,170 --> 02:26:04,610
Something like that.

4350
02:26:04,690 --> 02:26:06,650
Well, that's a good size.

4351
02:26:06,950 --> 02:26:08,750
You can put some cheese on there.

4352
02:26:09,450 --> 02:26:14,030
The correct website is couchowoodandcraft.com.

4353
02:26:15,890 --> 02:26:16,690
couchowoodandcraft.com.

4354
02:26:17,070 --> 02:26:18,630
Ah, it was a corrective donation.

4355
02:26:18,770 --> 02:26:19,870
Yes, and thank you very much.

4356
02:26:19,890 --> 02:26:22,250
I said couchowoodworking, I think is what I

4357
02:26:22,250 --> 02:26:22,450
said.

4358
02:26:22,750 --> 02:26:26,310
And thank you very much, couchowoodworking.

4359
02:26:27,550 --> 02:26:29,630
Oh, here's the note I was talking about.

4360
02:26:29,730 --> 02:26:30,530
You need to read this.

4361
02:26:30,610 --> 02:26:31,210
You want to read it?

4362
02:26:31,310 --> 02:26:31,550
Nope.

4363
02:26:33,230 --> 02:26:35,130
That's from Dame Kicking and Screaming.

4364
02:26:35,750 --> 02:26:36,510
Parts unknown.

4365
02:26:36,830 --> 02:26:37,650
Don't know where she's from.

4366
02:26:38,910 --> 02:26:41,270
The very top of this note seems to...

4367
02:26:41,270 --> 02:26:41,750
Oh, there it is.

4368
02:26:41,850 --> 02:26:42,990
Okay, popped it open.

4369
02:26:43,810 --> 02:26:44,750
Ugh, God.

4370
02:26:45,590 --> 02:26:46,070
Dear...

4371
02:26:46,070 --> 02:26:47,650
Oh, this is so long.

4372
02:26:48,030 --> 02:26:49,850
Well, you can get through it.

4373
02:26:49,850 --> 02:26:52,410
Dear Adam and John, here's a donation made

4374
02:26:52,410 --> 02:26:55,230
from my dirty drug dollars in order to

4375
02:26:55,230 --> 02:26:57,750
cleanse the possible curse on the money.

4376
02:26:57,850 --> 02:26:58,930
Oh, nice.

4377
02:26:58,930 --> 02:26:59,490
Oh, that's good.

4378
02:26:59,590 --> 02:26:59,790
Yeah.

4379
02:27:00,330 --> 02:27:02,990
On a road trip as a mule from

4380
02:27:02,990 --> 02:27:06,230
South Mexico to Waco, Texas last week, I

4381
02:27:06,230 --> 02:27:08,470
was inspected by U.S. Customs while waiting

4382
02:27:08,470 --> 02:27:10,290
for them to go through the cargo, mainly

4383
02:27:10,290 --> 02:27:14,770
personal stuff and some used chiropractic heavy devices.

4384
02:27:16,110 --> 02:27:18,170
I saw the sniffer dog coming out.

4385
02:27:18,510 --> 02:27:20,090
I was sure he was going to be

4386
02:27:20,090 --> 02:27:21,950
done in two minutes, not finding anything.

4387
02:27:22,070 --> 02:27:24,330
To my surprise, he sat down, which is

4388
02:27:24,330 --> 02:27:24,810
what they do.

4389
02:27:25,750 --> 02:27:28,430
And before I knew it was happening, I

4390
02:27:28,430 --> 02:27:32,230
heard the dreaded, Ma'am, can you turn

4391
02:27:32,230 --> 02:27:35,290
around and put your hands on your back?

4392
02:27:36,730 --> 02:27:37,290
Wow.

4393
02:27:37,670 --> 02:27:40,810
Followed by the distinct click, click of handcuffs.

4394
02:27:41,810 --> 02:27:44,590
I was detained and strip searched in a

4395
02:27:44,590 --> 02:27:45,570
cell soon after.

4396
02:27:46,050 --> 02:27:48,890
In shock, I was wondering who was going

4397
02:27:48,890 --> 02:27:50,730
to feed my cat for the next 20

4398
02:27:50,730 --> 02:27:51,110
years.

4399
02:27:52,790 --> 02:27:54,310
By the way, the dog's...

4400
02:27:54,310 --> 02:27:56,410
Sometime later, a customs guy came in with

4401
02:27:56,410 --> 02:27:58,590
a wad of money and asked, What is

4402
02:27:58,590 --> 02:27:59,270
this?

4403
02:28:00,190 --> 02:28:02,470
Not to be smart, but generally answering honestly.

4404
02:28:02,870 --> 02:28:03,750
Uh, money?

4405
02:28:05,290 --> 02:28:07,270
That was not received well.

4406
02:28:08,050 --> 02:28:12,550
A supervisor had joined and triumphantly smirked.

4407
02:28:12,730 --> 02:28:13,930
We found the money.

4408
02:28:14,390 --> 02:28:16,210
Now it's a matter of time before we

4409
02:28:16,210 --> 02:28:17,310
find the drugs.

4410
02:28:18,710 --> 02:28:19,350
Unquote.

4411
02:28:19,670 --> 02:28:20,670
I died right there.

4412
02:28:20,750 --> 02:28:22,890
And then the Mooney was the Mooney.

4413
02:28:23,170 --> 02:28:25,290
The money was counted.

4414
02:28:25,290 --> 02:28:28,270
And as I assessed before, it was less

4415
02:28:28,270 --> 02:28:29,170
than $10,000.

4416
02:28:30,090 --> 02:28:31,390
He wanted to give it to me, but

4417
02:28:31,390 --> 02:28:34,270
I refused for fear of accepting responsibility for

4418
02:28:34,270 --> 02:28:35,370
other things they would find.

4419
02:28:36,030 --> 02:28:38,270
According to the supervisor, it was already too

4420
02:28:38,270 --> 02:28:38,530
late.

4421
02:28:38,950 --> 02:28:40,830
Everything found in the car was my responsibility.

4422
02:28:41,090 --> 02:28:42,290
The car is owned by an 80-year

4423
02:28:42,290 --> 02:28:44,450
-old American chiropractor living in Mexico.

4424
02:28:44,750 --> 02:28:47,810
He bought the Ford Transit secondhand.

4425
02:28:47,910 --> 02:28:49,790
A few years later, I was uncuffed.

4426
02:28:50,190 --> 02:28:52,130
A few hours, a few years.

4427
02:28:52,130 --> 02:28:55,190
A few hours later, I was uncuffed and

4428
02:28:55,190 --> 02:28:57,710
led through a hallway when one officer turned

4429
02:28:57,710 --> 02:29:00,270
around, handed me my shoelaces back and mumbled,

4430
02:29:00,790 --> 02:29:01,350
you're released.

4431
02:29:02,010 --> 02:29:04,350
My knees buckled from relief.

4432
02:29:04,450 --> 02:29:06,110
I was still clear enough to ask what

4433
02:29:06,110 --> 02:29:07,270
would happen with the money.

4434
02:29:07,790 --> 02:29:10,070
They couldn't confiscate it, they said.

4435
02:29:10,110 --> 02:29:11,170
So I asked for it.

4436
02:29:11,450 --> 02:29:13,450
They handed me the money and I was

4437
02:29:13,450 --> 02:29:15,910
now brought back to my car that had

4438
02:29:15,910 --> 02:29:18,250
exploded by the looks of it.

4439
02:29:18,250 --> 02:29:21,610
They just basically tore it apart.

4440
02:29:22,450 --> 02:29:26,030
Everything was unpacked outside and strewn around, only

4441
02:29:26,030 --> 02:29:27,190
for me to put back.

4442
02:29:28,050 --> 02:29:30,290
Every panel was open and it was a

4443
02:29:30,290 --> 02:29:30,630
mess.

4444
02:29:31,210 --> 02:29:34,170
No explanation was given, you know, just to

4445
02:29:34,170 --> 02:29:35,270
stop to know for a second.

4446
02:29:35,350 --> 02:29:36,110
The dog lied.

4447
02:29:37,490 --> 02:29:39,890
Well, the dog, this is a car in

4448
02:29:39,890 --> 02:29:41,790
Mexico, it was a used car.

4449
02:29:42,130 --> 02:29:44,310
Ford Transit, hello.

4450
02:29:45,250 --> 02:29:48,370
Somebody had used the car for drug transit

4451
02:29:48,370 --> 02:29:52,090
and just some random dust was left, which

4452
02:29:52,090 --> 02:29:54,050
the dog spotted and did his job.

4453
02:29:55,610 --> 02:29:57,210
Yeah, that makes nothing but sense.

4454
02:29:58,410 --> 02:30:01,470
No explanation was given about the whole situation.

4455
02:30:01,770 --> 02:30:04,810
No report, no rapport, no human interaction.

4456
02:30:05,030 --> 02:30:07,650
In order to clean the karma mat that

4457
02:30:07,650 --> 02:30:09,930
might be on the dirty drugs dollars, I

4458
02:30:09,930 --> 02:30:11,570
decided to donate a big portion of it

4459
02:30:11,570 --> 02:30:12,350
to various people.

4460
02:30:12,350 --> 02:30:14,450
No agenda was on the top of my

4461
02:30:14,450 --> 02:30:14,690
list.

4462
02:30:14,850 --> 02:30:16,830
I had to keep it short, keep it

4463
02:30:16,830 --> 02:30:17,170
short.

4464
02:30:17,730 --> 02:30:19,370
But so many things happened.

4465
02:30:19,470 --> 02:30:20,750
Sorry, John.

4466
02:30:22,250 --> 02:30:23,470
Sad smiley face.

4467
02:30:23,750 --> 02:30:25,530
Thank you for your courage in four more

4468
02:30:25,530 --> 02:30:25,890
years.

4469
02:30:25,970 --> 02:30:27,250
Dame kicking and screaming.

4470
02:30:27,470 --> 02:30:28,690
Thank you for keeping it short.

4471
02:30:29,910 --> 02:30:31,170
Well, that's a good story.

4472
02:30:31,190 --> 02:30:32,010
That's a good story.

4473
02:30:32,090 --> 02:30:33,470
Yes, and it ended well.

4474
02:30:33,470 --> 02:30:35,350
And thank you for sharing that dirty drug

4475
02:30:35,350 --> 02:30:36,070
money with us.

4476
02:30:36,750 --> 02:30:40,910
Tom Animas is in Emmaus in Pennsylvania, and

4477
02:30:40,910 --> 02:30:43,530
he donated, probably just let us know it's

4478
02:30:43,530 --> 02:30:44,730
pronounced Emmaus.

4479
02:30:45,010 --> 02:30:50,530
We said Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus,

4480
02:30:50,530 --> 02:30:50,630
Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus, Emmaus.

4481
02:30:50,630 --> 02:30:52,090
Emmaus, yes, 31533.

4482
02:30:52,330 --> 02:30:53,770
Big thanks to all the No Agenda producers.

4483
02:30:53,970 --> 02:30:55,470
Even bigger thanks to Adam and John for

4484
02:30:55,470 --> 02:30:57,350
making the best podcast in the universe, stronger

4485
02:30:57,350 --> 02:30:57,750
than ever.

4486
02:30:58,130 --> 02:30:58,970
Dvorak is right.

4487
02:30:59,470 --> 02:31:01,890
But first, a douchebag, douchebag call out for

4488
02:31:01,890 --> 02:31:02,810
Greg the Welder.

4489
02:31:03,870 --> 02:31:05,510
He knows who he is.

4490
02:31:05,510 --> 02:31:06,750
But Dvorak is right.

4491
02:31:07,190 --> 02:31:09,690
Rotten Tomatoes has been corrupted and has been

4492
02:31:09,690 --> 02:31:13,090
a no good movie raider for years now.

4493
02:31:13,510 --> 02:31:15,470
They pay critics to juice scores.

4494
02:31:15,910 --> 02:31:17,170
You have to wait two months to see

4495
02:31:17,170 --> 02:31:19,190
where a movie really lands, which makes it

4496
02:31:19,190 --> 02:31:19,530
useless.

4497
02:31:19,870 --> 02:31:22,330
And they've destroyed decent, honest movie reviews like

4498
02:31:22,330 --> 02:31:23,450
we had back in the day.

4499
02:31:23,570 --> 02:31:24,550
It's a psyop.

4500
02:31:25,210 --> 02:31:27,690
Fortunately, there's a value for value option out

4501
02:31:27,690 --> 02:31:27,910
there.

4502
02:31:27,970 --> 02:31:30,710
So if you'd like considerate, thoughtful movie reviews,

4503
02:31:30,830 --> 02:31:32,830
check out the Daily Ratings podcast.

4504
02:31:33,190 --> 02:31:33,750
It's a podcast.

4505
02:31:34,310 --> 02:31:37,110
Or stop by the DailyRatings.com to see

4506
02:31:37,110 --> 02:31:40,210
the 2000 movie reviews and counting.

4507
02:31:40,690 --> 02:31:42,430
You may not always agree with us, but

4508
02:31:42,430 --> 02:31:44,710
we're pretty consistent since all the scores come

4509
02:31:44,710 --> 02:31:48,430
from one guy, Vincent Daly, hence the name

4510
02:31:48,430 --> 02:31:49,230
Daily Ratings.

4511
02:31:49,570 --> 02:31:51,250
We have even have a couple of great

4512
02:31:51,250 --> 02:31:54,030
scores for Dana, creator of the tip of

4513
02:31:54,030 --> 02:31:55,070
the day, Brunetti.

4514
02:31:55,590 --> 02:31:58,090
Love and light and best price, says Tom

4515
02:31:58,090 --> 02:31:58,490
Onimus.

4516
02:31:58,670 --> 02:31:59,150
Thank you, Tom.

4517
02:32:01,550 --> 02:32:02,790
It's definitely a tip.

4518
02:32:02,790 --> 02:32:08,070
Sir Christopher in Elrod, Alabama, 233.99. Switcheroo!

4519
02:32:09,310 --> 02:32:11,790
I dedicate this row of ducks plus fees.

4520
02:32:12,970 --> 02:32:14,270
So 233.99, okay.

4521
02:32:14,730 --> 02:32:15,550
The row of ducks, really.

4522
02:32:15,970 --> 02:32:19,430
To Kim, another Kim with no last name.

4523
02:32:19,490 --> 02:32:20,730
Was this from the last show?

4524
02:32:20,890 --> 02:32:23,430
No, it seems the same, but I don't

4525
02:32:23,430 --> 02:32:24,550
think it is because...

4526
02:32:25,550 --> 02:32:27,790
No, you're right, because it's his wife.

4527
02:32:27,870 --> 02:32:28,390
It's his wife.

4528
02:32:28,490 --> 02:32:30,910
The other Kim was just some rando Kim.

4529
02:32:31,430 --> 02:32:32,190
Yeah, yeah.

4530
02:32:32,190 --> 02:32:34,210
Yeah, this is for Kim, his wife.

4531
02:32:34,350 --> 02:32:35,930
So it's Kim Christopher, I am assuming.

4532
02:32:37,670 --> 02:32:38,970
Christopher could be the first name.

4533
02:32:39,050 --> 02:32:40,190
Nevermind, just use Kim.

4534
02:32:40,490 --> 02:32:41,230
I'm just using Kim.

4535
02:32:41,350 --> 02:32:42,110
I don't want to get in trouble.

4536
02:32:42,210 --> 02:32:44,870
June 23rd, a nice medley of Sharpton, if

4537
02:32:44,870 --> 02:32:45,390
you don't mind.

4538
02:32:45,490 --> 02:32:48,950
Thank you, Sir Christopher Knight of the Sipsi

4539
02:32:48,950 --> 02:32:49,350
Valley.

4540
02:32:49,650 --> 02:32:53,690
Tonight is the measure of whether the country

4541
02:32:53,690 --> 02:32:57,590
begins in the state of Wisconsin, a national

4542
02:32:57,590 --> 02:33:01,270
drive to push back, or whether we have

4543
02:33:01,270 --> 02:33:04,290
more to go to build a movement of

4544
02:33:04,290 --> 02:33:05,030
resistance.

4545
02:33:05,470 --> 02:33:06,070
But resist.

4546
02:33:06,090 --> 02:33:06,910
Oh, here we go.

4547
02:33:07,090 --> 02:33:08,030
I didn't even know that was...

4548
02:33:08,030 --> 02:33:12,950
We must, and we will much about that

4549
02:33:12,950 --> 02:33:14,210
be committed.

4550
02:33:14,490 --> 02:33:15,330
Beautiful, Al.

4551
02:33:15,630 --> 02:33:16,410
Joining me now...

4552
02:33:17,910 --> 02:33:19,150
There you go, for Kim.

4553
02:33:19,430 --> 02:33:19,730
Noted.

4554
02:33:19,850 --> 02:33:26,370
Anonymous is in...

4555
02:33:26,370 --> 02:33:26,690
Apparently.

4556
02:33:27,490 --> 02:33:30,510
Rove Ducks from Anonymous, 222.22. Thank you

4557
02:33:30,510 --> 02:33:30,930
very much.

4558
02:33:31,010 --> 02:33:32,830
Associate Executive Producership for Anonymous.

4559
02:33:33,710 --> 02:33:33,990
Nice.

4560
02:33:34,810 --> 02:33:39,170
Well, you also have 222.22 from Sir

4561
02:33:39,170 --> 02:33:40,150
PBR.

4562
02:33:41,550 --> 02:33:42,290
Street Gang.

4563
02:33:42,310 --> 02:33:43,130
Street Gang.

4564
02:33:44,990 --> 02:33:46,930
ITM John and Adam, please find the enclosed

4565
02:33:46,930 --> 02:33:49,170
check for 222.22. Thank you for your

4566
02:33:49,170 --> 02:33:49,410
courage.

4567
02:33:49,490 --> 02:33:52,470
My wife Dame Trinity reminded me that we

4568
02:33:52,470 --> 02:33:54,750
sponsor a local Christian radio station for her

4569
02:33:54,750 --> 02:33:58,550
birthday, and it's listener-supported, and they run

4570
02:33:58,550 --> 02:34:00,570
no advertisements, and neither does no agenda.

4571
02:34:00,690 --> 02:34:03,190
So please add Dame Trinity to the birthday

4572
02:34:03,190 --> 02:34:03,550
list.

4573
02:34:03,710 --> 02:34:04,730
I'm not, you know...

4574
02:34:05,850 --> 02:34:07,370
I'll double-check, but I think...

4575
02:34:07,370 --> 02:34:10,130
Double-check to the birthday list for June

4576
02:34:10,130 --> 02:34:10,770
28th.

4577
02:34:10,790 --> 02:34:12,790
We both pray for John's return to the

4578
02:34:12,790 --> 02:34:17,410
Catholic Church, and for Adam's continued walk with

4579
02:34:17,410 --> 02:34:17,950
Jesus.

4580
02:34:18,230 --> 02:34:18,630
Amen.

4581
02:34:20,710 --> 02:34:23,210
Jingles boogity boogity, which is a jingle I

4582
02:34:23,210 --> 02:34:23,690
don't like.

4583
02:34:23,690 --> 02:34:25,210
That's true.

4584
02:34:26,810 --> 02:34:28,070
Signed Sir PBR.

4585
02:34:28,310 --> 02:34:30,490
Pabst Blue Ribbon, by the way, that's what

4586
02:34:30,490 --> 02:34:33,730
it stands for, which is odd.

4587
02:34:34,270 --> 02:34:35,010
That's true.

4588
02:34:35,150 --> 02:34:39,090
Anyway, Sir PBR Street Gang, which I don't

4589
02:34:39,090 --> 02:34:39,570
get either.

4590
02:34:39,790 --> 02:34:41,450
I didn't know you didn't like the boogity

4591
02:34:41,450 --> 02:34:42,050
jingle.

4592
02:34:42,350 --> 02:34:43,950
You've never mentioned that before.

4593
02:34:44,370 --> 02:34:46,230
No, at the very beginning when we started

4594
02:34:46,230 --> 02:34:47,510
playing it, we banned it.

4595
02:34:47,910 --> 02:34:48,550
We did?

4596
02:34:49,410 --> 02:34:50,350
Oh, brother.

4597
02:34:50,490 --> 02:34:51,130
That's true.

4598
02:34:58,870 --> 02:35:00,850
I have no problem with it.

4599
02:35:01,510 --> 02:35:02,450
I have no problem.

4600
02:35:02,470 --> 02:35:03,790
I tried it to be muddy.

4601
02:35:04,150 --> 02:35:04,470
Yeah.

4602
02:35:04,890 --> 02:35:05,650
And silly.

4603
02:35:05,890 --> 02:35:06,110
Okay.

4604
02:35:06,270 --> 02:35:09,390
Ryan George in Yorkville, Illinois, $2.10 and

4605
02:35:09,390 --> 02:35:10,290
60 cents.

4606
02:35:10,430 --> 02:35:11,730
Sir Pew Pew Ding Ding.

4607
02:35:12,170 --> 02:35:13,650
It's been a while since donating, but I

4608
02:35:13,650 --> 02:35:15,230
could use some help with bringing a child

4609
02:35:15,230 --> 02:35:15,950
into the country.

4610
02:35:16,530 --> 02:35:18,710
My in-laws have lived in Thailand for

4611
02:35:18,710 --> 02:35:21,570
30 years, adopted a boy, and are getting

4612
02:35:21,570 --> 02:35:22,410
the runaround.

4613
02:35:23,290 --> 02:35:25,910
Ah, email me and I will send you

4614
02:35:25,910 --> 02:35:29,790
the details of my most excellent immigration lawyer,

4615
02:35:29,950 --> 02:35:31,830
who is extremely good at this.

4616
02:35:32,290 --> 02:35:34,450
So I'd be happy to help you out.

4617
02:35:34,950 --> 02:35:36,270
Can I get a Scott Simon?

4618
02:35:36,490 --> 02:35:37,070
Love y'all.

4619
02:35:37,210 --> 02:35:38,590
Suffer and succotash.

4620
02:35:38,730 --> 02:35:40,790
I'm Scott Simon.

4621
02:35:45,720 --> 02:35:47,000
I love that one.

4622
02:35:47,240 --> 02:35:51,540
Mitchell, the tint guy in Dallas, Texas.

4623
02:35:51,720 --> 02:35:52,620
A new one.

4624
02:35:52,840 --> 02:35:53,840
The tint guy.

4625
02:35:54,000 --> 02:35:54,640
The tint guy.

4626
02:35:55,540 --> 02:35:57,660
The footage out of California feels like a

4627
02:35:57,660 --> 02:35:58,740
rerun from 2020.

4628
02:35:59,060 --> 02:36:04,140
Peaceful protests up front, but behind the sheep

4629
02:36:04,140 --> 02:36:07,800
with the signs and megaphones, it's looters and

4630
02:36:07,800 --> 02:36:09,080
backpacks and bricks.

4631
02:36:09,920 --> 02:36:13,940
And the common demonstrator, the common denominator in

4632
02:36:13,940 --> 02:36:17,300
every clip, which is the looters enter through

4633
02:36:17,300 --> 02:36:20,200
the gate, glasses, the weak link.

4634
02:36:20,520 --> 02:36:25,760
At Coolview of McKinney, Texas, we install retrofit

4635
02:36:25,760 --> 02:36:29,240
security systems that hold glass together under assault,

4636
02:36:29,680 --> 02:36:32,940
giving your home or business a fighting chance.

4637
02:36:34,560 --> 02:36:36,200
Check us out at, which reminds me of

4638
02:36:36,200 --> 02:36:37,420
a story I'll mention.

4639
02:36:37,900 --> 02:36:40,680
Check us out at coolview.com.

4640
02:36:40,720 --> 02:36:43,220
McKinney mentioned no agenda and get 20%

4641
02:36:43,220 --> 02:36:46,540
off professionally installed window film or security film.

4642
02:36:46,940 --> 02:36:48,420
ITM, Mitchell, the tint guy.

4643
02:36:49,260 --> 02:36:50,180
So interesting.

4644
02:36:50,420 --> 02:36:55,840
So I, when I was at COOLVU, coolview

4645
02:36:55,840 --> 02:36:56,820
.com.

4646
02:36:58,260 --> 02:37:02,760
So I'm, I was up in Seattle once

4647
02:37:02,760 --> 02:37:05,060
and I was at an architect's office for

4648
02:37:05,060 --> 02:37:08,120
getting a barbecue set designed or something.

4649
02:37:08,300 --> 02:37:09,820
Some guy who's a fan of mine.

4650
02:37:10,100 --> 02:37:11,780
And, and I was, and he just so

4651
02:37:11,780 --> 02:37:13,580
happened to be working on the Bill Gates

4652
02:37:13,580 --> 02:37:16,240
house at the time, which was on the

4653
02:37:16,240 --> 02:37:18,640
water on Lake Washington.

4654
02:37:19,900 --> 02:37:22,100
And he said they had to, oh, there's

4655
02:37:22,100 --> 02:37:24,200
a, it's like a big front, a bunch

4656
02:37:24,200 --> 02:37:28,160
of glass windows and huge windows.

4657
02:37:28,220 --> 02:37:29,680
And he said they had to replace him

4658
02:37:29,680 --> 02:37:31,880
with, he had to replace all the windows

4659
02:37:31,880 --> 02:37:35,360
of the Gates mansion with bulletproof glass because

4660
02:37:35,360 --> 02:37:38,380
fishermen and other jokers would be just cruising

4661
02:37:38,380 --> 02:37:39,560
down the river and they say, hey, that's

4662
02:37:39,560 --> 02:37:40,740
Bill Gates house.

4663
02:37:40,980 --> 02:37:42,920
And they take pot shots at it.

4664
02:37:43,520 --> 02:37:44,080
Yeah.

4665
02:37:44,380 --> 02:37:46,600
The whole, the house is riveted with bullets.

4666
02:37:47,400 --> 02:37:47,640
Wow.

4667
02:37:49,360 --> 02:37:51,660
And they brush the glass and they zoom

4668
02:37:51,660 --> 02:37:52,600
off on their boat.

4669
02:37:52,720 --> 02:37:53,320
Oh man.

4670
02:37:54,200 --> 02:37:54,400
Yeah.

4671
02:37:54,520 --> 02:37:55,300
That's wild.

4672
02:37:55,340 --> 02:37:56,400
An untold story.

4673
02:37:57,600 --> 02:38:00,720
Um, I actually, bonus clip, bonus clip.

4674
02:38:01,160 --> 02:38:03,260
Since we, uh, we had Mitchell, the tint

4675
02:38:03,260 --> 02:38:05,960
guy from Dallas, Texas talking about, uh, the

4676
02:38:05,960 --> 02:38:06,560
protest.

4677
02:38:06,900 --> 02:38:10,320
I thought what JD Vance did in Los

4678
02:38:10,320 --> 02:38:11,980
Angeles was hilarious.

4679
02:38:12,920 --> 02:38:14,220
Did you follow that at all?

4680
02:38:14,320 --> 02:38:16,620
When he, uh, when he spoke about, uh,

4681
02:38:16,640 --> 02:38:17,080
Padilla.

4682
02:38:18,040 --> 02:38:18,880
About Jose.

4683
02:38:19,140 --> 02:38:19,480
Yeah.

4684
02:38:19,600 --> 02:38:21,600
And the reason I'm here is I just

4685
02:38:21,600 --> 02:38:23,920
wanted to hear from the law enforcement officials

4686
02:38:23,920 --> 02:38:27,100
themselves, the state officials, the local officials, but

4687
02:38:27,100 --> 02:38:29,500
also the federal officials, what's actually going on

4688
02:38:29,500 --> 02:38:30,080
here on the ground.

4689
02:38:30,160 --> 02:38:31,240
I think there's some good news.

4690
02:38:31,320 --> 02:38:33,080
And the good news is the rioting has

4691
02:38:33,080 --> 02:38:34,160
gotten a lot better.

4692
02:38:34,400 --> 02:38:36,420
Uh, but the bad news is, as I

4693
02:38:36,420 --> 02:38:38,840
heard from everybody, unfortunately, the soldiers and Marines

4694
02:38:38,840 --> 02:38:41,060
are still a very much a necessary part

4695
02:38:41,060 --> 02:38:43,360
of what's going on here because they're worried

4696
02:38:43,360 --> 02:38:44,520
that it's going to flare back up.

4697
02:38:44,580 --> 02:38:46,180
Well, I was hoping Jose Padilla would be

4698
02:38:46,180 --> 02:38:47,260
here to ask a question.

4699
02:38:47,620 --> 02:38:49,220
Uh, but unfortunately, I guess he decided not

4700
02:38:49,220 --> 02:38:50,680
to show up because there wasn't the theater.

4701
02:38:51,240 --> 02:38:53,820
And so that was, I mean, he said

4702
02:38:53,820 --> 02:38:55,400
there wasn't a theater that was going to

4703
02:38:55,400 --> 02:38:56,640
be his big punch line.

4704
02:38:56,680 --> 02:38:58,640
So I can only presume that he really

4705
02:38:58,640 --> 02:39:02,100
did think the guy's name is Jose Padilla.

4706
02:39:02,260 --> 02:39:03,720
What is his real first name?

4707
02:39:04,640 --> 02:39:05,080
Alex.

4708
02:39:05,080 --> 02:39:08,940
And so this was the retort from LA

4709
02:39:08,940 --> 02:39:10,200
mayor, Karen Bass.

4710
02:39:10,500 --> 02:39:11,360
Mr. Vice president.

4711
02:39:12,140 --> 02:39:13,520
How dare you?

4712
02:39:13,900 --> 02:39:15,520
How dare you?

4713
02:39:16,860 --> 02:39:20,100
You don't know his name, but yet you

4714
02:39:20,100 --> 02:39:22,780
served with him before you were vice president

4715
02:39:22,780 --> 02:39:25,200
and you continue to serve with him today.

4716
02:39:25,200 --> 02:39:27,660
Because the last time I checked the vice

4717
02:39:27,660 --> 02:39:29,800
president of the United States is the president

4718
02:39:29,800 --> 02:39:30,920
of the US Senate.

4719
02:39:31,120 --> 02:39:32,760
You serve with him today.

4720
02:39:32,760 --> 02:39:34,800
And how dare you disrespect him?

4721
02:39:34,800 --> 02:39:36,500
And call him Jose.

4722
02:39:36,800 --> 02:39:38,680
But I guess he just looked like anybody

4723
02:39:38,680 --> 02:39:39,520
to you.

4724
02:39:39,800 --> 02:39:41,740
Well, he's not just anybody to us.

4725
02:39:41,900 --> 02:39:43,100
He is our Senator.

4726
02:39:45,280 --> 02:39:46,760
An arrogant woman.

4727
02:39:47,180 --> 02:39:47,980
That's hilarious.

4728
02:39:48,620 --> 02:39:50,200
You be like a Jose.

4729
02:39:50,420 --> 02:39:50,920
AI version.

4730
02:39:51,080 --> 02:39:53,220
You know, the AI version of Vance going

4731
02:39:53,220 --> 02:39:53,520
off?

4732
02:39:53,660 --> 02:39:54,360
No, I didn't.

4733
02:39:54,480 --> 02:39:54,920
I didn't.

4734
02:39:54,920 --> 02:39:56,180
I should have clipped it.

4735
02:39:56,260 --> 02:39:58,240
It was, in fact, I would have, but

4736
02:39:58,240 --> 02:39:59,700
I didn't.

4737
02:39:59,860 --> 02:40:00,080
Yeah.

4738
02:40:00,100 --> 02:40:01,480
He says, I don't know if you call

4739
02:40:01,480 --> 02:40:03,800
him Jose or Rodrigo.

4740
02:40:03,800 --> 02:40:05,160
And he goes on and on with a

4741
02:40:05,160 --> 02:40:07,620
bunch of these diminutive names.

4742
02:40:08,100 --> 02:40:09,680
It's still full of crap.

4743
02:40:09,900 --> 02:40:10,680
You know, he goes on.

4744
02:40:12,160 --> 02:40:13,060
Oh, man.

4745
02:40:13,200 --> 02:40:15,360
Linda Lupatkin winds us out as our final

4746
02:40:15,360 --> 02:40:16,600
associate executive producer.

4747
02:40:16,800 --> 02:40:19,280
She is in Lakewood, Colorado, and she wants

4748
02:40:19,280 --> 02:40:20,060
jobs karma.

4749
02:40:20,220 --> 02:40:21,980
And adds to that, do you need a

4750
02:40:21,980 --> 02:40:24,580
resume that tells your story, highlights your wins,

4751
02:40:24,660 --> 02:40:26,480
and shows why you're unique?

4752
02:40:26,900 --> 02:40:30,300
Visit ImageMakersInc.com for a resume that gets

4753
02:40:30,300 --> 02:40:30,760
results.

4754
02:40:30,760 --> 02:40:32,880
That's ImageMakersInc with a K.

4755
02:40:33,220 --> 02:40:35,580
And work with Linda Liu, Duchess of Jobs,

4756
02:40:35,680 --> 02:40:37,620
and writer of winning resumes.

4757
02:40:38,020 --> 02:40:41,400
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

4758
02:40:41,600 --> 02:40:43,120
Let's vote for jobs.

4759
02:40:44,520 --> 02:40:48,440
Well, there you go.

4760
02:40:48,660 --> 02:40:50,620
Our executive and associate executive producers.

4761
02:40:50,760 --> 02:40:52,900
It gets real short after that, which is

4762
02:40:52,900 --> 02:40:53,460
interesting.

4763
02:40:54,120 --> 02:40:55,780
That's because it all got cut off at

4764
02:40:55,780 --> 02:40:59,880
3.15. Maybe we got bounced, man.

4765
02:40:59,880 --> 02:41:01,860
Maybe PayPal jacked us.

4766
02:41:03,240 --> 02:41:04,420
Have you tried donating?

4767
02:41:05,840 --> 02:41:07,880
Well, a number of people that normally come

4768
02:41:07,880 --> 02:41:10,140
in late didn't come in at all.

4769
02:41:10,740 --> 02:41:12,700
You know, the system could have been down.

4770
02:41:12,880 --> 02:41:14,260
There could have been a million reasons for

4771
02:41:14,260 --> 02:41:14,600
this.

4772
02:41:14,740 --> 02:41:15,760
Well, I hope that's it.

4773
02:41:16,320 --> 02:41:16,920
You never know.

4774
02:41:19,100 --> 02:41:21,020
We've gotten donations since, so.

4775
02:41:21,040 --> 02:41:21,580
Oh, okay.

4776
02:41:21,700 --> 02:41:22,400
Well, then good.

4777
02:41:22,600 --> 02:41:22,880
So at least.

4778
02:41:22,900 --> 02:41:23,200
I think.

4779
02:41:25,720 --> 02:41:27,120
That would really suck, John.

4780
02:41:27,620 --> 02:41:28,420
That would really suck.

4781
02:41:28,960 --> 02:41:31,320
That would suck some big time.

4782
02:41:31,700 --> 02:41:33,800
Thank you to these executive and associate executive

4783
02:41:33,800 --> 02:41:34,140
producers.

4784
02:41:34,260 --> 02:41:36,160
We got PhDs to celebrate later.

4785
02:41:36,220 --> 02:41:37,500
We have one night, one day.

4786
02:41:38,360 --> 02:41:41,720
We're very, very appreciative of the value you

4787
02:41:41,720 --> 02:41:43,720
have returned, particularly these bigger donors.

4788
02:41:44,120 --> 02:41:45,680
But we love everybody who supports us, no

4789
02:41:45,680 --> 02:41:47,240
matter what it is, no matter what amount.

4790
02:41:47,300 --> 02:41:48,740
You can make that up yourself by going

4791
02:41:48,740 --> 02:41:50,520
to noagendadonations.com.

4792
02:41:50,960 --> 02:41:52,840
You can even set up a recurring donation

4793
02:41:52,840 --> 02:41:54,680
where you can do any amount and any

4794
02:41:54,680 --> 02:41:55,700
frequency you want.

4795
02:41:55,820 --> 02:41:56,580
Please do that.

4796
02:41:56,580 --> 02:41:57,900
Support your no agenda show.

4797
02:41:58,000 --> 02:42:00,100
And again, thank you to these executive and

4798
02:42:00,100 --> 02:42:01,340
associate executive producers.

4799
02:42:01,380 --> 02:42:02,660
Our formula is this.

4800
02:42:03,440 --> 02:42:04,140
We go out.

4801
02:42:04,520 --> 02:42:06,040
We hit people in the mouth.

4802
02:42:19,960 --> 02:42:22,160
You know that I'm looking.

4803
02:42:22,300 --> 02:42:24,220
Yeah, the donations are back on track.

4804
02:42:24,780 --> 02:42:27,860
The that may account for this weird.

4805
02:42:27,980 --> 02:42:29,440
I got a call from Jay this morning.

4806
02:42:29,620 --> 02:42:30,640
This is weird.

4807
02:42:30,760 --> 02:42:36,280
Note came in from Tom Blowers in Brownsville

4808
02:42:36,280 --> 02:42:40,560
and about his, you know, his donation for

4809
02:42:40,560 --> 02:42:41,160
my key.

4810
02:42:41,260 --> 02:42:43,260
I'll read the note because you're going to

4811
02:42:43,260 --> 02:42:44,440
have to read it in the next segment.

4812
02:42:44,520 --> 02:42:45,100
I'll read it now.

4813
02:42:45,200 --> 02:42:47,540
OK, this donation is from my keeper, Shelley

4814
02:42:47,540 --> 02:42:48,560
Switcheroo.

4815
02:42:48,660 --> 02:42:50,660
Also, I'd like to commemorate to our son

4816
02:42:50,660 --> 02:42:52,380
Colby, who is the one who hit us

4817
02:42:52,380 --> 02:42:54,360
in the mouth, as mentioned the show back

4818
02:42:54,360 --> 02:42:55,300
in early twenty, twenty three.

4819
02:42:55,360 --> 02:42:55,700
Not sure.

4820
02:42:55,820 --> 02:42:57,740
But the episode Colby on six, nineteen, twenty

4821
02:42:57,740 --> 02:42:59,000
three succumb to his demons.

4822
02:42:59,000 --> 02:43:00,600
And unfortunately, not with us anymore.

4823
02:43:00,900 --> 02:43:01,540
I'm sorry.

4824
02:43:01,700 --> 02:43:02,240
So miss.

4825
02:43:02,280 --> 02:43:03,960
So my message here is that someone out

4826
02:43:03,960 --> 02:43:04,500
there needs help.

4827
02:43:04,520 --> 02:43:08,300
Please contact the suicide hotline.

4828
02:43:08,600 --> 02:43:10,080
Oh, you're not alone.

4829
02:43:10,180 --> 02:43:11,900
You're loved and are important to everybody.

4830
02:43:12,000 --> 02:43:14,040
We, however, continue to be great fans of

4831
02:43:14,040 --> 02:43:15,240
the best podcast in the universe.

4832
02:43:15,340 --> 02:43:17,180
Help us maintain our sanity while traveling the

4833
02:43:17,180 --> 02:43:19,020
great country with this donation.

4834
02:43:19,200 --> 02:43:20,220
Shelley becomes a day.

4835
02:43:20,260 --> 02:43:21,360
Now, this is going to get bumped to

4836
02:43:21,360 --> 02:43:21,860
Thursday.

4837
02:43:21,860 --> 02:43:24,760
OK, because the donation, I think I got

4838
02:43:24,760 --> 02:43:25,640
caught up.

4839
02:43:25,640 --> 02:43:26,260
No, no, no, no.

4840
02:43:26,300 --> 02:43:27,340
I think I have that one.

4841
02:43:27,420 --> 02:43:27,880
I have.

4842
02:43:27,980 --> 02:43:28,660
Yeah, I have, Shelly.

4843
02:43:28,800 --> 02:43:29,080
Yes.

4844
02:43:30,040 --> 02:43:30,420
Oh, yeah.

4845
02:43:30,420 --> 02:43:31,240
She's on the list.

4846
02:43:31,320 --> 02:43:31,500
Yep.

4847
02:43:31,500 --> 02:43:32,340
She's on the list.

4848
02:43:32,580 --> 02:43:32,860
OK.

4849
02:43:33,160 --> 02:43:34,340
Jay put her on the list then.

4850
02:43:34,420 --> 02:43:36,480
Yeah, but she we have to be careful.

4851
02:43:36,780 --> 02:43:39,220
But this donation, I'm pretty sure.

4852
02:43:39,300 --> 02:43:41,480
And I would say gigawatt coffee, too, because

4853
02:43:41,480 --> 02:43:43,340
he always is the late, always the last

4854
02:43:43,340 --> 02:43:46,920
donation got bumped through that.

4855
02:43:46,940 --> 02:43:47,680
Whatever happened.

4856
02:43:47,840 --> 02:43:48,780
I don't know what it was.

4857
02:43:48,880 --> 02:43:49,360
A glitch.

4858
02:43:49,940 --> 02:43:51,500
They come through eventually.

4859
02:43:51,500 --> 02:43:52,340
It was a glitch.

4860
02:43:53,540 --> 02:43:54,420
Yes, exactly.

4861
02:43:54,520 --> 02:43:57,500
It was a glitch, which obviously a glitch.

4862
02:43:57,940 --> 02:44:00,320
Hey, I have some underreported news, which I

4863
02:44:00,320 --> 02:44:02,040
thought to be quite interesting.

4864
02:44:02,160 --> 02:44:03,220
And here it is.

4865
02:44:03,300 --> 02:44:06,060
The Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda

4866
02:44:06,060 --> 02:44:07,780
are set to sign a peace agreement.

4867
02:44:08,000 --> 02:44:10,340
The deal was brokered by the United States

4868
02:44:10,340 --> 02:44:11,780
and is set to be signed on the

4869
02:44:11,780 --> 02:44:12,900
27th of June.

4870
02:44:13,160 --> 02:44:15,460
The provisional agreement announced by the U.S.

4871
02:44:15,540 --> 02:44:19,240
State Department covers issues including disarmament, the integration

4872
02:44:19,240 --> 02:44:21,520
of non-state armed groups and the return

4873
02:44:21,520 --> 02:44:24,500
of refugees and internally displaced people in eastern

4874
02:44:24,500 --> 02:44:25,140
DRC.

4875
02:44:25,480 --> 02:44:27,580
Eastern DRC has been gripped by a violent

4876
02:44:27,580 --> 02:44:29,380
conflict spanning back decades.

4877
02:44:29,880 --> 02:44:32,220
Several armed groups are competing for access to

4878
02:44:32,220 --> 02:44:36,220
precious natural resources, including gold, copper, cobalt and

4879
02:44:36,220 --> 02:44:36,560
lithium.

4880
02:44:37,080 --> 02:44:39,640
Congo has accused its neighbor, Rwanda, of backing

4881
02:44:39,640 --> 02:44:41,480
one of the largest groups in the conflict,

4882
02:44:41,780 --> 02:44:43,080
known as the M23.

4883
02:44:43,080 --> 02:44:45,620
The U.N. estimates that 4,000 of

4884
02:44:45,620 --> 02:44:48,180
the group's fighters are troops from Rwanda, though

4885
02:44:48,180 --> 02:44:50,600
Kigali has strongly rejected those allegations.

4886
02:44:50,980 --> 02:44:54,280
M23 is one of approximately 100 armed groups

4887
02:44:54,280 --> 02:44:56,540
involved in the conflict vying for control in

4888
02:44:56,540 --> 02:44:57,020
the region.

4889
02:44:57,380 --> 02:44:59,800
Congo and Rwanda are not formally at war

4890
02:44:59,800 --> 02:45:01,520
and in the past have held peace talks

4891
02:45:01,520 --> 02:45:04,080
aimed at resolving disputes in eastern DRC.

4892
02:45:04,300 --> 02:45:06,940
Angola stepped down in March as mediator between

4893
02:45:06,940 --> 02:45:09,560
the two countries after several attempts at brokering

4894
02:45:09,560 --> 02:45:10,000
peace.

4895
02:45:10,000 --> 02:45:13,020
Other nations, like Qatar, also attempted to mediate

4896
02:45:13,020 --> 02:45:15,000
the conflict in the past with no success.

4897
02:45:40,000 --> 02:45:41,760
Because the way I saw it, it's like,

4898
02:45:41,860 --> 02:45:44,560
okay, so we kick China out because clearly

4899
02:45:44,560 --> 02:45:46,820
China was in there for the cobalt and

4900
02:45:46,820 --> 02:45:49,360
the gold and the minerals and all that

4901
02:45:49,360 --> 02:45:49,600
stuff.

4902
02:45:49,680 --> 02:45:51,480
And then this comes across the transom.

4903
02:45:51,600 --> 02:45:55,000
A regulatory agency announced Saturday that the Democratic

4904
02:45:55,000 --> 02:45:58,700
Republic of Congo has extended its ban on

4905
02:45:58,700 --> 02:46:02,280
cobalt exports for three more months, a measure

4906
02:46:02,280 --> 02:46:05,480
aimed at curbing oversupply of the key material

4907
02:46:05,480 --> 02:46:07,280
for electric vehicle batteries.

4908
02:46:07,280 --> 02:46:10,260
The world's largest supplier of cobalt, the country

4909
02:46:10,260 --> 02:46:13,140
had imposed a four-month export ban in

4910
02:46:13,140 --> 02:46:15,640
February after price hit a nine-year low

4911
02:46:15,640 --> 02:46:17,820
of just $10 per pound.

4912
02:46:18,200 --> 02:46:20,500
The ban was originally set to end this

4913
02:46:20,500 --> 02:46:20,980
Sunday.

4914
02:46:21,360 --> 02:46:23,760
The regulatory body plans to announce a further

4915
02:46:23,760 --> 02:46:27,180
decision to modify, extend or lift the suspension

4916
02:46:27,180 --> 02:46:30,020
before the end of this new three-month

4917
02:46:30,020 --> 02:46:32,900
period, which will conclude in September.

4918
02:46:32,900 --> 02:46:36,280
Reuters reported on Friday that Congolese authorities were

4919
02:46:36,280 --> 02:46:39,060
considering extending the ban as they review the

4920
02:46:39,060 --> 02:46:42,920
allocation of cobalt export quotas among mining companies.

4921
02:46:43,500 --> 02:46:46,820
Several industry players, including Glencoe, the world's second

4922
02:46:46,820 --> 02:46:50,840
largest cobalt producer, support a proposal to introduce

4923
02:46:50,840 --> 02:46:51,820
these quotas.

4924
02:46:51,940 --> 02:46:54,000
So here's how I'm thinking the deal went.

4925
02:46:54,740 --> 02:46:56,620
All right, listen, guys, we're going to broker

4926
02:46:56,620 --> 02:46:57,780
a peace deal here.

4927
02:46:57,860 --> 02:47:00,600
We'll make sure that no more fighting breaks

4928
02:47:00,600 --> 02:47:00,900
out.

4929
02:47:00,900 --> 02:47:02,260
But you know what?

4930
02:47:02,800 --> 02:47:04,280
We're going to make you guys a little

4931
02:47:04,280 --> 02:47:04,640
richer.

4932
02:47:05,180 --> 02:47:07,080
So why don't you extend that ban on

4933
02:47:07,080 --> 02:47:08,360
exports to China?

4934
02:47:09,960 --> 02:47:11,760
I think this is a China play.

4935
02:47:12,460 --> 02:47:14,960
Like, you know, don't give them any coal.

4936
02:47:14,960 --> 02:47:15,560
I do too.

4937
02:47:15,680 --> 02:47:19,000
But it's funny that every analysis you've had

4938
02:47:19,000 --> 02:47:21,580
for the last couple of months is China,

4939
02:47:21,760 --> 02:47:22,540
China, China.

4940
02:47:22,800 --> 02:47:27,920
Yeah, China, China, China, China, China.

4941
02:47:31,880 --> 02:47:33,860
OK, this I picked up on.

4942
02:47:36,720 --> 02:47:37,700
What is it?

4943
02:47:37,720 --> 02:47:39,260
It's on NTD, actually.

4944
02:47:39,420 --> 02:47:40,640
British thought leaders.

4945
02:47:41,480 --> 02:47:43,180
You have a great show.

4946
02:47:43,340 --> 02:47:44,380
That's a very good show.

4947
02:47:44,940 --> 02:47:45,500
You have America.

4948
02:47:45,500 --> 02:47:46,580
One of the best interviews.

4949
02:47:46,720 --> 02:47:47,820
I try to clip it once in a

4950
02:47:47,820 --> 02:47:49,840
while, but it's very hard.

4951
02:47:49,960 --> 02:47:50,680
It's a long story.

4952
02:47:52,240 --> 02:47:53,960
It's hard to clip for some reason.

4953
02:47:54,360 --> 02:47:56,340
Well, the problem is it's not.

4954
02:47:56,540 --> 02:47:58,100
You know, I clip my NTD stuff from

4955
02:47:58,100 --> 02:48:00,360
the computer and from the Internet feeds because

4956
02:48:00,360 --> 02:48:02,420
I can't get it on TV.

4957
02:48:02,900 --> 02:48:04,100
I mean, I get it on TV, but

4958
02:48:04,100 --> 02:48:05,160
it's on over the air.

4959
02:48:05,280 --> 02:48:06,660
They don't have it on the Google.

4960
02:48:07,180 --> 02:48:08,740
And so I can't record anything.

4961
02:48:09,000 --> 02:48:11,360
So I have to scrounge around to get.

4962
02:48:11,460 --> 02:48:11,960
Find it.

4963
02:48:13,940 --> 02:48:18,120
So they had on British journalist Lewis Brackpool.

4964
02:48:18,640 --> 02:48:20,620
And the reason I clip this is because

4965
02:48:20,620 --> 02:48:21,720
of East Enders.

4966
02:48:22,260 --> 02:48:25,480
East Enders is a daily soap that has

4967
02:48:25,480 --> 02:48:27,660
been running in the UK for, I think,

4968
02:48:27,740 --> 02:48:28,580
50 years.

4969
02:48:28,740 --> 02:48:29,840
Been running forever.

4970
02:48:29,840 --> 02:48:31,060
And when I lived there, we lived there

4971
02:48:31,060 --> 02:48:31,840
for five years.

4972
02:48:32,360 --> 02:48:34,420
I got into it, you know, and it's

4973
02:48:34,420 --> 02:48:36,320
just, you know, it's funny.

4974
02:48:36,460 --> 02:48:37,260
British culture.

4975
02:48:37,660 --> 02:48:40,740
And I got into a general hospital or

4976
02:48:40,740 --> 02:48:42,760
days of, I think, days of our lives

4977
02:48:42,760 --> 02:48:44,220
sometime in the 70s.

4978
02:48:44,600 --> 02:48:46,820
When I was working a swing shift or

4979
02:48:46,820 --> 02:48:48,300
something, I could watch daytime TV.

4980
02:48:48,680 --> 02:48:49,560
I watched it a couple of times.

4981
02:48:49,680 --> 02:48:50,940
And the next thing you know, for months

4982
02:48:50,940 --> 02:48:53,340
on end, I was watching this stupid show.

4983
02:48:53,360 --> 02:48:55,260
And you were rooting for Susan Lucci to

4984
02:48:55,260 --> 02:48:56,080
finally win the Emmy.

4985
02:48:56,080 --> 02:48:58,500
Well, Susan Lucci, which show was she on?

4986
02:48:58,580 --> 02:48:59,180
I can't remember.

4987
02:48:59,180 --> 02:49:00,660
Was she on Another World, maybe?

4988
02:49:01,320 --> 02:49:02,120
Oh, I don't know.

4989
02:49:02,160 --> 02:49:03,500
There's about five of these things.

4990
02:49:03,660 --> 02:49:05,620
And they were actually pretty well structured.

4991
02:49:05,960 --> 02:49:08,000
So here's what he did.

4992
02:49:08,500 --> 02:49:12,540
He came across, I guess someone mentioned it

4993
02:49:12,540 --> 02:49:12,980
to him.

4994
02:49:13,360 --> 02:49:15,740
And well, he did some journalistic work.

4995
02:49:15,820 --> 02:49:16,280
Here's the setup.

4996
02:49:16,520 --> 02:49:19,360
I put in a request to the Department

4997
02:49:19,360 --> 02:49:22,620
of Culture, Media and Sport to ask whether

4998
02:49:22,620 --> 02:49:27,140
the government from 2020 to now, to present,

4999
02:49:28,180 --> 02:49:32,240
was involved in any collaborations with the government

5000
02:49:32,240 --> 02:49:39,240
and TV companies, producers, scriptwriters that may embed

5001
02:49:39,240 --> 02:49:42,420
government messaging through fictional television programs.

5002
02:49:43,760 --> 02:49:46,040
And this was off the back of a

5003
02:49:46,040 --> 02:49:47,440
conversation again with a friend.

5004
02:49:48,020 --> 02:49:50,300
And he, I don't know why, he watches

5005
02:49:50,300 --> 02:49:50,900
EastEnders.

5006
02:49:51,060 --> 02:49:52,040
It's not my cup of tea.

5007
02:49:52,040 --> 02:49:53,360
But, you know, a lot of people do

5008
02:49:53,360 --> 02:49:53,740
watch it.

5009
02:49:53,820 --> 02:49:55,120
Millions watch it across the country.

5010
02:49:55,240 --> 02:49:55,940
So I'm not judging.

5011
02:49:57,580 --> 02:49:58,660
He was watching it.

5012
02:49:59,100 --> 02:50:01,340
And during one of the storylines, one of

5013
02:50:01,340 --> 02:50:06,040
the characters mentioned climate intervention and specifically geoengineering,

5014
02:50:06,280 --> 02:50:10,200
which was bizarre for an EastEnders storyline.

5015
02:50:10,440 --> 02:50:12,920
Like it was very, you know, sore thumb.

5016
02:50:13,900 --> 02:50:15,220
And we were talking about it.

5017
02:50:15,260 --> 02:50:16,620
And I said, oh, do you know that

5018
02:50:16,620 --> 02:50:19,560
there's a lot of evidence to show that

5019
02:50:19,560 --> 02:50:22,280
the government are involved in scriptwriting for fictional

5020
02:50:22,280 --> 02:50:25,380
television programs because it's broadcast to millions of

5021
02:50:25,380 --> 02:50:26,840
people across the UK?

5022
02:50:27,460 --> 02:50:29,240
And he said, well, that wouldn't surprise me.

5023
02:50:29,880 --> 02:50:32,000
I went to check articles to back up

5024
02:50:32,000 --> 02:50:33,800
what I was saying, and I couldn't find

5025
02:50:33,800 --> 02:50:34,040
any.

5026
02:50:34,740 --> 02:50:36,580
So I thought, OK, this is a perfect

5027
02:50:36,580 --> 02:50:37,840
time to put in the request.

5028
02:50:38,360 --> 02:50:40,340
And here's the response he got back from

5029
02:50:40,340 --> 02:50:40,900
the government.

5030
02:50:41,480 --> 02:50:44,880
And their response, they've delayed my request for

5031
02:50:44,880 --> 02:50:49,860
another 20 working days because they've cited an

5032
02:50:49,860 --> 02:50:54,320
exemption, which basically says it could affect the

5033
02:50:54,320 --> 02:51:00,000
public affairs, meaning disclosure of this information could

5034
02:51:00,000 --> 02:51:03,360
affect their messaging, number one.

5035
02:51:03,900 --> 02:51:08,100
It could affect media backlash if they come

5036
02:51:08,100 --> 02:51:11,040
out and say, actually, yes, we do actually

5037
02:51:11,040 --> 02:51:14,100
hold this particular information, but certain things we

5038
02:51:14,100 --> 02:51:19,180
have to basically exempt from the public to

5039
02:51:19,180 --> 02:51:21,820
see in case the public are riled up

5040
02:51:21,820 --> 02:51:24,960
and upset about what is being pushed by

5041
02:51:24,960 --> 02:51:25,480
messaging.

5042
02:51:25,900 --> 02:51:27,800
So they have confirmed that they hold the

5043
02:51:27,800 --> 02:51:28,180
data.

5044
02:51:28,540 --> 02:51:29,840
There's no question about that.

5045
02:51:30,080 --> 02:51:32,240
It's a case of what and what particular

5046
02:51:32,240 --> 02:51:33,420
narratives are they pushing?

5047
02:51:33,860 --> 02:51:35,460
You know, we, of course, know that this

5048
02:51:35,460 --> 02:51:37,280
happens in the United States to the Norman

5049
02:51:37,280 --> 02:51:38,640
Lear Hollywood Foundation.

5050
02:51:39,520 --> 02:51:41,180
And I think it's a good idea.

5051
02:51:41,300 --> 02:51:43,480
People should be putting in freedom of information

5052
02:51:43,480 --> 02:51:46,340
requests to all of their European governments.

5053
02:51:46,440 --> 02:51:47,640
You should get into this.

5054
02:51:48,720 --> 02:51:50,980
Because I bet it's rampant everywhere.

5055
02:51:51,500 --> 02:51:54,780
It's probably the problem with doing that here

5056
02:51:54,780 --> 02:51:59,320
is that we use cutouts so well, like

5057
02:51:59,320 --> 02:52:00,360
the Lear Foundation.

5058
02:52:00,620 --> 02:52:02,020
I mean, if they're the ones that are

5059
02:52:02,020 --> 02:52:06,200
helping these script writers put crap into the

5060
02:52:06,200 --> 02:52:09,920
scripts that propagandize the public, you can send

5061
02:52:09,920 --> 02:52:12,120
a freedom of information act to anybody you

5062
02:52:12,120 --> 02:52:12,340
want.

5063
02:52:12,380 --> 02:52:14,360
You're not going to get anywhere because they're

5064
02:52:14,360 --> 02:52:17,160
all know what we've heard of them.

5065
02:52:17,160 --> 02:52:19,180
And the USAID sends them some money on

5066
02:52:19,180 --> 02:52:20,540
the side, but we don't know what they

5067
02:52:20,540 --> 02:52:21,320
use it for.

5068
02:52:21,500 --> 02:52:23,000
No, it's not going to work.

5069
02:52:24,780 --> 02:52:25,860
OK, good point.

5070
02:52:25,980 --> 02:52:27,860
But I mean, we do know it's not

5071
02:52:27,860 --> 02:52:30,340
like it's a big secret because the Lear

5072
02:52:30,340 --> 02:52:32,500
Foundation themselves come out and say it.

5073
02:52:32,960 --> 02:52:33,520
They do.

5074
02:52:34,700 --> 02:52:35,720
They used to.

5075
02:52:35,820 --> 02:52:37,220
I know Norman Lear's dead.

5076
02:52:37,260 --> 02:52:38,120
It's hard to say what.

5077
02:52:38,400 --> 02:52:40,180
Well, let's talk about the auto pen.

5078
02:52:40,240 --> 02:52:43,040
There was a funny guy that came out,

5079
02:52:43,200 --> 02:52:45,900
gave testimony before Congress, and it was recorded.

5080
02:52:45,900 --> 02:52:48,440
This guy's name is, I think I have

5081
02:52:48,440 --> 02:52:51,380
it on the on this clip name, Theodore

5082
02:52:51,380 --> 02:52:51,940
Wald.

5083
02:52:53,740 --> 02:52:56,580
He said when they put a group together

5084
02:52:56,580 --> 02:52:58,760
to investigate the use of the auto pen

5085
02:52:58,760 --> 02:53:00,600
in the Biden administration, I thought these two

5086
02:53:00,600 --> 02:53:01,420
clips were worthwhile.

5087
02:53:01,920 --> 02:53:05,000
Traditionally, the president takes positive actions and authenticates

5088
02:53:05,000 --> 02:53:06,600
those actions through his signature.

5089
02:53:06,800 --> 02:53:09,020
His signature is required for the most significant

5090
02:53:09,020 --> 02:53:12,080
actions he may undertake to sign an executive

5091
02:53:12,080 --> 02:53:15,320
order, to take any action invested in him

5092
02:53:15,320 --> 02:53:17,420
by the Constitution, as in granting a pardon,

5093
02:53:17,940 --> 02:53:19,520
and to take the most important action of

5094
02:53:19,520 --> 02:53:21,640
all, to sign a bill into law.

5095
02:53:22,180 --> 02:53:24,500
In all these cases, the president's signature is

5096
02:53:24,500 --> 02:53:26,860
itself the protection of democratic principle.

5097
02:53:27,220 --> 02:53:30,460
When the president signs, he communicates his assent

5098
02:53:30,460 --> 02:53:32,860
and endorsement of the action he takes.

5099
02:53:33,780 --> 02:53:36,140
The auto pen is a device that signs

5100
02:53:36,140 --> 02:53:37,620
the president's signature to a document.

5101
02:53:38,460 --> 02:53:41,080
The Oversight Project, of which I am a

5102
02:53:41,080 --> 02:53:43,000
board member, has discovered that the Biden White

5103
02:53:43,000 --> 02:53:46,040
House deployed an auto pen to affix President

5104
02:53:46,040 --> 02:53:50,820
Biden's signature to pardons, prison commutations, executive orders,

5105
02:53:51,180 --> 02:53:52,640
and presidential proclamations.

5106
02:53:53,460 --> 02:53:55,500
The Oversight Project's research has found that the

5107
02:53:55,500 --> 02:53:58,000
Biden White House first deployed the auto pen

5108
02:53:58,000 --> 02:54:00,320
to affix President Biden's signature to a proclamation

5109
02:54:00,320 --> 02:54:03,460
on day five of his administration.

5110
02:54:04,010 --> 02:54:06,120
And that there were at least three different

5111
02:54:06,120 --> 02:54:09,180
auto pen signatures in use throughout President Biden's

5112
02:54:09,180 --> 02:54:10,220
tenure in the White House.

5113
02:54:10,920 --> 02:54:13,940
In June 2022, the Biden White House began

5114
02:54:13,940 --> 02:54:16,260
deploying the auto pen to sign clemency warrants

5115
02:54:16,260 --> 02:54:17,280
and executive orders.

5116
02:54:17,960 --> 02:54:20,100
Auto pen use skyrocketed from there.

5117
02:54:20,540 --> 02:54:22,900
We found that of the 51 clemency warrants

5118
02:54:22,900 --> 02:54:26,320
issued during the Biden presidency, over half, 32

5119
02:54:26,320 --> 02:54:28,660
in total, were signed with an auto pen.

5120
02:54:28,660 --> 02:54:31,000
And these include some of the most controversial

5121
02:54:31,000 --> 02:54:34,160
acts of clemency of the Biden presidency, including

5122
02:54:34,160 --> 02:54:37,840
death row commutations, and the preemptive pardons of

5123
02:54:37,840 --> 02:54:40,300
members of the Biden family, Dr. Anthony Fauci,

5124
02:54:40,720 --> 02:54:43,140
General Mark Milley, and more that were issued

5125
02:54:43,140 --> 02:54:44,920
in the final days of the Biden presidency.

5126
02:54:45,500 --> 02:54:47,860
Finally, we found multiple days where President Biden

5127
02:54:47,860 --> 02:54:50,700
wet signed a bill into law, but used

5128
02:54:50,700 --> 02:54:52,600
an auto pen to issue an executive order

5129
02:54:52,600 --> 02:54:54,800
or for other important executive actions.

5130
02:54:55,400 --> 02:54:57,700
The Biden White House's widespread use of an

5131
02:54:57,700 --> 02:54:59,940
auto pen to affix President Biden's signatures to

5132
02:54:59,940 --> 02:55:03,560
documents that exercise executive powers belonging solely to

5133
02:55:03,560 --> 02:55:07,240
the president poses significant constitutional, legal, and practical

5134
02:55:07,240 --> 02:55:08,020
considerations.

5135
02:55:08,900 --> 02:55:09,380
Hmm.

5136
02:55:09,460 --> 02:55:11,620
These guys were the Claremont Institute?

5137
02:55:12,660 --> 02:55:13,520
Yeah, I think so.

5138
02:55:13,740 --> 02:55:14,700
What do they do?

5139
02:55:14,960 --> 02:55:15,600
Sounds like something.

5140
02:55:15,600 --> 02:55:16,620
Oh, they're a think tank.

5141
02:55:16,620 --> 02:55:18,840
Sounds like they're doing something for the president,

5142
02:55:19,040 --> 02:55:20,480
some work for the president here.

5143
02:55:20,680 --> 02:55:22,880
This is all body punches.

5144
02:55:23,720 --> 02:55:25,900
To soften everybody up for the fact they're

5145
02:55:25,900 --> 02:55:27,460
going to pull the plug on a lot

5146
02:55:27,460 --> 02:55:29,540
of stuff Biden did because they can prove

5147
02:55:29,540 --> 02:55:30,760
that Biden had nothing to do with it.

5148
02:55:31,140 --> 02:55:32,260
And they've got a lot of they're getting

5149
02:55:32,260 --> 02:55:34,860
documentation to show that maybe Biden didn't do

5150
02:55:34,860 --> 02:55:35,460
any of this.

5151
02:55:35,720 --> 02:55:36,000
Well, we're not.

5152
02:55:36,100 --> 02:55:38,500
We did something, but he didn't do everything.

5153
02:55:39,180 --> 02:55:39,980
Drooled, sadly.

5154
02:55:40,160 --> 02:55:41,140
He drooled a lot.

5155
02:55:41,300 --> 02:55:41,460
Yeah.

5156
02:55:41,540 --> 02:55:45,280
So here's the finish of this little testimony.

5157
02:55:46,060 --> 02:55:48,380
Once the president's signature is copied and loaded

5158
02:55:48,380 --> 02:55:50,320
into the auto pen, the machine can sign

5159
02:55:50,320 --> 02:55:52,380
documents as the president himself would.

5160
02:55:52,380 --> 02:55:55,460
To be blunt, by using the auto pen,

5161
02:55:55,780 --> 02:55:59,320
anyone can sign documents as the president himself.

5162
02:56:00,260 --> 02:56:01,940
Now, to be clear, I'm not here today

5163
02:56:01,940 --> 02:56:04,040
to suggest that the auto pen is bad.

5164
02:56:04,340 --> 02:56:05,460
It's just technology.

5165
02:56:05,900 --> 02:56:08,200
I'm here today because of questions concerning President

5166
02:56:08,200 --> 02:56:11,020
Biden's capacity and whether the auto pen was

5167
02:56:11,020 --> 02:56:13,960
used to usurp presidential power or to conceal

5168
02:56:13,960 --> 02:56:15,020
the president's decline.

5169
02:56:15,340 --> 02:56:18,900
As the sitting president's mental acuity declined, potentially

5170
02:56:18,900 --> 02:56:22,260
to the point of incapacitation, his administration's expansion

5171
02:56:22,260 --> 02:56:24,460
of the powers of the presidency raises more

5172
02:56:24,460 --> 02:56:25,580
questions than answers.

5173
02:56:25,840 --> 02:56:28,280
Any investigation into this matter should focus not

5174
02:56:28,280 --> 02:56:31,240
only on whether President Biden directed or authorized

5175
02:56:31,240 --> 02:56:33,600
subordinate staff to take action in certain instances,

5176
02:56:33,860 --> 02:56:35,920
but whether he had the capacity to do

5177
02:56:35,920 --> 02:56:36,560
so at all.

5178
02:56:37,080 --> 02:56:39,340
The 25th Amendment lays out clear procedures for

5179
02:56:39,340 --> 02:56:41,180
what to do when the president isn't capacitated.

5180
02:56:41,380 --> 02:56:43,760
It was carefully drafted and informed by our

5181
02:56:43,760 --> 02:56:44,460
nation's history.

5182
02:56:44,660 --> 02:56:48,400
The Biden administration ignored it all to aggrandize

5183
02:56:48,400 --> 02:56:50,940
executive power and push the country further in

5184
02:56:50,940 --> 02:56:52,600
their preferred ideological direction.

5185
02:56:53,260 --> 02:56:55,460
It is our obligation at this point to

5186
02:56:55,460 --> 02:56:57,960
get to the bottom of these issues and

5187
02:56:57,960 --> 02:56:59,720
ask the important question as to whether or

5188
02:56:59,720 --> 02:57:01,580
not the auto pen and other devices were

5189
02:57:01,580 --> 02:57:05,280
used to cover and obscure President Biden's mental

5190
02:57:05,280 --> 02:57:08,680
decline, undermining our national security and also the

5191
02:57:08,680 --> 02:57:09,160
Constitution.

5192
02:57:09,820 --> 02:57:11,300
Thank you for the opportunity to testify this

5193
02:57:11,300 --> 02:57:11,500
morning.

5194
02:57:12,370 --> 02:57:12,680
Hmm.

5195
02:57:14,220 --> 02:57:15,560
Yeah, yeah.

5196
02:57:15,720 --> 02:57:19,520
So can you, I guess the question is,

5197
02:57:19,820 --> 02:57:28,280
can you hold someone accountable, is that the

5198
02:57:28,280 --> 02:57:33,420
word I'm looking for, for not adhering to

5199
02:57:33,420 --> 02:57:34,500
the 25th Amendment?

5200
02:57:34,680 --> 02:57:36,360
Or is that something you just invoke?

5201
02:57:36,800 --> 02:57:37,760
I don't think they, I don't think they

5202
02:57:37,760 --> 02:57:39,940
have a prayer of doing anything like that.

5203
02:57:39,940 --> 02:57:42,360
But what they, I mean, that's an interesting

5204
02:57:42,360 --> 02:57:42,920
case.

5205
02:57:43,020 --> 02:57:44,320
But I think what they're going to try,

5206
02:57:44,420 --> 02:57:45,740
I think the best they're going to do

5207
02:57:45,740 --> 02:57:47,920
from all this is pull the plug on

5208
02:57:47,920 --> 02:57:49,140
a bunch of these pardons.

5209
02:57:50,520 --> 02:57:52,160
I think that's about as far as they're

5210
02:57:52,160 --> 02:57:52,940
going to be able to get.

5211
02:57:53,680 --> 02:57:56,060
Because they're, like you said, there's no evidence

5212
02:57:56,060 --> 02:57:58,420
that because they look in the record and

5213
02:57:58,420 --> 02:58:00,420
there's no evidence that Biden wanted to pardon

5214
02:58:00,420 --> 02:58:01,600
half of these people.

5215
02:58:01,980 --> 02:58:03,220
He never mentions it anywhere.

5216
02:58:03,580 --> 02:58:06,520
They mentioned specifically Fauci and Milley.

5217
02:58:06,700 --> 02:58:08,940
And that's the, that's the shot across the

5218
02:58:08,940 --> 02:58:09,760
bow right there.

5219
02:58:11,200 --> 02:58:12,080
Yeah, definitely.

5220
02:58:12,780 --> 02:58:15,660
Hey, did you, did I see you had

5221
02:58:15,660 --> 02:58:15,980
something?

5222
02:58:16,160 --> 02:58:17,860
Oh, by the way, nothing's going to come

5223
02:58:17,860 --> 02:58:18,160
of it.

5224
02:58:18,300 --> 02:58:19,020
No, of course not.

5225
02:58:19,140 --> 02:58:21,220
Put it in the Epstein file, Bing.

5226
02:58:21,560 --> 02:58:22,620
It's like, what's his name?

5227
02:58:23,400 --> 02:58:23,940
What's it?

5228
02:58:24,080 --> 02:58:24,440
Comer.

5229
02:58:24,740 --> 02:58:27,800
It's like James Comer's various investigations.

5230
02:58:28,240 --> 02:58:30,240
He talks a big game and nothing has

5231
02:58:30,240 --> 02:58:32,840
ever come of any of it.

5232
02:58:33,780 --> 02:58:35,800
Did you have an article, did you say

5233
02:58:35,800 --> 02:58:39,080
something not too long ago about China, like

5234
02:58:39,080 --> 02:58:40,700
the smuggling in fungus?

5235
02:58:41,120 --> 02:58:42,020
Was that a clip we had?

5236
02:58:42,020 --> 02:58:46,120
We talked about the fungus in the, I

5237
02:58:46,120 --> 02:58:47,820
think it was a couple of shows ago.

5238
02:58:47,960 --> 02:58:48,860
Yeah, someone bringing in.

5239
02:58:48,940 --> 02:58:50,120
Do we have a clip of that?

5240
02:58:50,220 --> 02:58:51,900
Someone was bringing in a fungus.

5241
02:58:52,040 --> 02:58:52,620
Someone got arrested.

5242
02:58:52,620 --> 02:58:54,640
Yeah, they're bringing in some horrible fungus.

5243
02:58:55,020 --> 02:58:55,480
Let me see.

5244
02:58:55,480 --> 02:58:56,480
That can kill wheat.

5245
02:58:56,720 --> 02:58:58,660
It's a wheat, it's really targeted.

5246
02:58:58,920 --> 02:59:00,700
It also makes people sick if you get

5247
02:59:00,700 --> 02:59:03,120
an infection with it, but it's.

5248
02:59:03,120 --> 02:59:04,040
Well, listen to this.

5249
02:59:04,700 --> 02:59:08,940
A lethal here, a lethal fungus that can

5250
02:59:08,940 --> 02:59:11,120
rot human tissue from within.

5251
02:59:11,540 --> 02:59:13,500
Oh, yeah, this one is spreading.

5252
02:59:13,500 --> 02:59:15,140
I think that's the same fungus, to be

5253
02:59:15,140 --> 02:59:15,800
honest about it.

5254
02:59:15,860 --> 02:59:19,280
It's spreading rapidly across the U.S. And

5255
02:59:19,280 --> 02:59:20,700
this is from the Daily Mail.

5256
02:59:20,820 --> 02:59:22,520
So take that with a grain of salt.

5257
02:59:22,980 --> 02:59:25,360
And experts warn the problem could worsen as

5258
02:59:25,360 --> 02:59:26,380
temperatures rise.

5259
02:59:26,460 --> 02:59:29,080
It's got a climate change, global climate change,

5260
02:59:29,160 --> 02:59:30,240
climate change component.

5261
02:59:30,240 --> 02:59:35,120
It can cause serious lung infection called aspergillosis,

5262
02:59:35,900 --> 02:59:39,920
which in vulnerable individuals can lead to organ

5263
02:59:39,920 --> 02:59:41,140
failure and death.

5264
02:59:43,420 --> 02:59:47,060
Those with weakened immune systems, they're susceptible, of

5265
02:59:47,060 --> 02:59:47,260
course.

5266
02:59:47,640 --> 02:59:49,660
Major cities like New York, Houston, Los Angeles

5267
02:59:49,660 --> 02:59:52,780
face added risk from dense populations and aging

5268
02:59:52,780 --> 02:59:53,580
infrastructure.

5269
02:59:54,440 --> 02:59:55,960
And so I'm thinking, I'm listening to that.

5270
02:59:56,040 --> 02:59:58,640
I'm thinking, oh, is this connected somehow?

5271
02:59:58,640 --> 03:00:01,820
The latest COVID variant is causing a distinctive

5272
03:00:01,820 --> 03:00:05,340
symptom, a sore throat so severe it's nicknamed

5273
03:00:05,340 --> 03:00:06,740
razor blade throat.

5274
03:00:07,220 --> 03:00:10,120
Some patients report a sharp, stabbing pain when

5275
03:00:10,120 --> 03:00:12,280
they swallow, often at the back of the

5276
03:00:12,280 --> 03:00:12,600
throat.

5277
03:00:13,040 --> 03:00:15,520
Because of that, the new variant is informally

5278
03:00:15,520 --> 03:00:18,400
being called Nimbus, a name that refers to

5279
03:00:18,400 --> 03:00:20,140
a jagged type of storm cloud.

5280
03:00:20,740 --> 03:00:22,700
Doctors in the UK are also seeing more

5281
03:00:22,700 --> 03:00:25,260
intestinal symptoms than with other variants.

5282
03:00:25,260 --> 03:00:28,140
The virus is spreading quickly in the US.

5283
03:00:28,420 --> 03:00:31,300
Nimbus went from single digits to 37%

5284
03:00:31,300 --> 03:00:33,860
of all new cases of COVID in less

5285
03:00:33,860 --> 03:00:34,780
than three weeks.

5286
03:00:35,040 --> 03:00:35,840
No, it's not.

5287
03:00:35,900 --> 03:00:38,100
I'm reading down this article further, and there

5288
03:00:38,100 --> 03:00:38,340
it is.

5289
03:00:38,440 --> 03:00:40,620
Climate change is making it easier for the

5290
03:00:40,620 --> 03:00:43,180
fungus to survive inside the human body as

5291
03:00:43,180 --> 03:00:44,700
global temperatures rise.

5292
03:00:45,060 --> 03:00:47,340
The human body doesn't change temperatures because of

5293
03:00:47,340 --> 03:00:48,160
climate change.

5294
03:00:48,460 --> 03:00:49,520
Of course not.

5295
03:00:50,420 --> 03:00:53,800
Your body temperature stays the same, or it

5296
03:00:53,800 --> 03:00:54,160
should.

5297
03:00:54,820 --> 03:00:55,260
Man.

5298
03:00:55,880 --> 03:00:57,240
Yeah, and it's actually lower.

5299
03:00:57,500 --> 03:00:58,860
So this is just historically.

5300
03:00:59,120 --> 03:01:00,860
This is another climate psyop then.

5301
03:01:01,080 --> 03:01:02,160
Okay, I should have known better.

5302
03:01:02,280 --> 03:01:02,700
I'm sorry.

5303
03:01:03,360 --> 03:01:04,640
All right, five-minute warning, John.

5304
03:01:04,740 --> 03:01:05,360
Five-minute warning.

5305
03:01:05,500 --> 03:01:06,360
Five-minute warning.

5306
03:01:07,380 --> 03:01:09,140
Oh, we got a few things here.

5307
03:01:09,440 --> 03:01:12,460
We're talking disease and- And death.

5308
03:01:12,680 --> 03:01:13,780
Disease and death, yes.

5309
03:01:14,060 --> 03:01:15,600
Death, disease, and something else.

5310
03:01:16,260 --> 03:01:17,980
Tick advice for the summer.

5311
03:01:19,140 --> 03:01:20,420
Bad year for tick bites.

5312
03:01:20,420 --> 03:01:23,000
Data from the CDC show people are seeking

5313
03:01:23,000 --> 03:01:26,060
emergency care at the highest rate since 2019.

5314
03:01:26,580 --> 03:01:28,600
So if you're planning a hike or a

5315
03:01:28,600 --> 03:01:30,220
trip to the park and want to avoid

5316
03:01:30,220 --> 03:01:33,260
these blood-sucking bugs, NPR's Peng Huang has

5317
03:01:33,260 --> 03:01:34,780
some tips to help you fend them off.

5318
03:01:35,220 --> 03:01:36,820
There are about a dozen different ticks in

5319
03:01:36,820 --> 03:01:38,520
the U.S. that can cause problems for

5320
03:01:38,520 --> 03:01:39,200
human health.

5321
03:01:39,640 --> 03:01:42,000
In the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Upper Midwest,

5322
03:01:42,580 --> 03:01:44,280
the biggest problem is Lyme disease.

5323
03:01:44,680 --> 03:01:47,380
Thomas Hart is an infectious disease microbiologist at

5324
03:01:47,380 --> 03:01:49,020
Johns Hopkins University in Maryland.

5325
03:01:49,580 --> 03:01:52,160
He says Lyme disease is transmitted by infected

5326
03:01:52,160 --> 03:01:52,820
deer ticks.

5327
03:01:53,120 --> 03:01:54,860
You can encounter these ticks really at any

5328
03:01:54,860 --> 03:01:56,480
time of the year, but they're going to

5329
03:01:56,480 --> 03:01:58,620
be the most active in warmer months, and

5330
03:01:58,620 --> 03:02:00,680
they tend to live in a woody or

5331
03:02:00,680 --> 03:02:01,580
grassy area.

5332
03:02:01,820 --> 03:02:04,500
In the Central and Southeastern U.S., ehrlichiosis

5333
03:02:04,500 --> 03:02:08,220
and spotted fever rickettsiosis are top concerns, along

5334
03:02:08,220 --> 03:02:10,300
with a tick-induced allergy to red meat.

5335
03:02:10,980 --> 03:02:12,420
Tick bites are less common in the West,

5336
03:02:12,460 --> 03:02:14,460
but they also happen there and can spread

5337
03:02:14,460 --> 03:02:17,540
Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and a few other things.

5338
03:02:17,540 --> 03:02:19,660
If all of this is making you itchy,

5339
03:02:20,140 --> 03:02:23,560
Alison Hinckley, an epidemiologist with CDC, says there

5340
03:02:23,560 --> 03:02:24,940
are precautions you can take.

5341
03:02:25,180 --> 03:02:28,460
You can wear insect-repellent-treated clothing.

5342
03:02:28,620 --> 03:02:30,760
We call that permethrin-treated clothing.

5343
03:02:31,380 --> 03:02:32,660
That's a really easy thing to do.

5344
03:02:32,880 --> 03:02:34,840
Cover up as much skin as possible and

5345
03:02:34,840 --> 03:02:35,860
check yourself daily.

5346
03:02:36,280 --> 03:02:38,360
Showering when you come in from outside really

5347
03:02:38,360 --> 03:02:40,240
has shown to be a good way to

5348
03:02:40,240 --> 03:02:41,480
prevent tick-borne diseases.

5349
03:02:41,800 --> 03:02:43,560
That's because the longer a tick feeds on

5350
03:02:43,560 --> 03:02:45,180
you, the higher the risk of infection.

5351
03:02:45,180 --> 03:02:47,340
So if you find a tick, take it

5352
03:02:47,340 --> 03:02:47,980
off right away.

5353
03:02:48,540 --> 03:02:50,260
The best way is to use tweezers, grab

5354
03:02:50,260 --> 03:02:51,440
it as close to the skin as you

5355
03:02:51,440 --> 03:02:53,980
can, and find out what type of tick

5356
03:02:53,980 --> 03:02:55,540
it is and how long it's been feeding

5357
03:02:55,540 --> 03:02:55,960
on you.

5358
03:02:56,260 --> 03:02:57,620
If it's a deer tick and you're in

5359
03:02:57,620 --> 03:02:59,820
an area where Lyme disease is common, Hinckley

5360
03:02:59,820 --> 03:03:00,960
says see a doctor.

5361
03:03:01,240 --> 03:03:03,800
The only time you would get an antibiotic

5362
03:03:03,800 --> 03:03:06,920
after a tick bite and before any symptoms,

5363
03:03:07,100 --> 03:03:08,820
it would be to prevent Lyme disease, and

5364
03:03:08,820 --> 03:03:11,080
in that case, we recommend just a single

5365
03:03:11,080 --> 03:03:11,420
dose.

5366
03:03:11,620 --> 03:03:14,440
Otherwise, watch for symptoms like fever, aches, and

5367
03:03:14,440 --> 03:03:14,800
rash.

5368
03:03:14,800 --> 03:03:17,120
If those show up, Hinckley says seek medical

5369
03:03:17,120 --> 03:03:17,440
care.

5370
03:03:17,980 --> 03:03:19,760
Hey, whatever happened to Alpha Gal?

5371
03:03:22,620 --> 03:03:22,940
Who?

5372
03:03:23,260 --> 03:03:23,920
Alpha Gal.

5373
03:03:24,680 --> 03:03:25,920
I don't know Alpha Gal.

5374
03:03:26,160 --> 03:03:26,520
Oh, yeah.

5375
03:03:27,040 --> 03:03:27,960
Yes, you do.

5376
03:03:28,060 --> 03:03:28,660
You dated her.

5377
03:03:29,180 --> 03:03:33,580
Alpha Gal was the meat allergy that people

5378
03:03:33,580 --> 03:03:36,980
would develop after getting bitten by the Texas

5379
03:03:36,980 --> 03:03:37,560
Lone Star tick.

5380
03:03:37,580 --> 03:03:38,760
Oh, they mentioned it in there.

5381
03:03:38,880 --> 03:03:40,380
I know, but whatever happened to that?

5382
03:03:40,420 --> 03:03:41,940
That was like a big thing, and people

5383
03:03:41,940 --> 03:03:43,300
were like, oh, I can't eat red meat,

5384
03:03:43,400 --> 03:03:46,080
and Alpha Gal in Texas, the Lone Star

5385
03:03:46,080 --> 03:03:46,460
tick.

5386
03:03:47,020 --> 03:03:48,340
Yeah, the Lone Star tick.

5387
03:03:48,480 --> 03:03:49,140
That was the name of it.

5388
03:03:49,220 --> 03:03:49,920
Yeah, what happened to that?

5389
03:03:50,000 --> 03:03:51,300
Just no one has that anymore?

5390
03:03:51,440 --> 03:03:52,140
Does that go away?

5391
03:03:52,960 --> 03:03:54,280
I don't think it has.

5392
03:03:56,600 --> 03:03:58,740
Well, we're going to New York next month.

5393
03:03:59,880 --> 03:04:01,400
I'll be doing the show from New York,

5394
03:04:01,960 --> 03:04:02,240
Tina's.

5395
03:04:02,240 --> 03:04:03,640
No, New York City.

5396
03:04:04,000 --> 03:04:05,100
New York City show.

5397
03:04:05,120 --> 03:04:07,560
We need a report of how the homeless

5398
03:04:07,560 --> 03:04:10,220
encampments are doing, and house things at the

5399
03:04:10,220 --> 03:04:11,060
Roosevelt Hotel.

5400
03:04:11,360 --> 03:04:12,700
You got a lot of work to do

5401
03:04:12,700 --> 03:04:13,560
if you're going to go to New York.

5402
03:04:13,640 --> 03:04:14,920
I'll be very, very busy.

5403
03:04:15,560 --> 03:04:17,000
We're going there for Tina's birthday.

5404
03:04:17,280 --> 03:04:19,720
We'll be celebrating with her youngest daughter, who

5405
03:04:19,720 --> 03:04:20,560
lives in New York.

5406
03:04:21,500 --> 03:04:24,460
And well, just imagine, I'm thinking we're going

5407
03:04:24,460 --> 03:04:24,720
there.

5408
03:04:24,840 --> 03:04:26,280
We're going to stay at the Roosevelt Hotel.

5409
03:04:26,500 --> 03:04:27,980
I'm not too sure about that.

5410
03:04:28,100 --> 03:04:30,500
Terminix released its annual ranking of the worst

5411
03:04:30,500 --> 03:04:31,680
cities for bedbugs.

5412
03:04:32,220 --> 03:04:32,760
Uh-oh.

5413
03:04:33,360 --> 03:04:35,660
Philadelphia holds the top spot for the second

5414
03:04:35,660 --> 03:04:36,480
year in a row.

5415
03:04:37,060 --> 03:04:37,580
Congratulations.

5416
03:04:38,060 --> 03:04:40,500
The city is followed by New York, Cleveland,

5417
03:04:40,720 --> 03:04:41,640
and Los Angeles.

5418
03:04:42,180 --> 03:04:44,880
Analysts say infestations are likely tied to...

5419
03:04:44,880 --> 03:04:46,520
Aliana can't even look at this.

5420
03:04:46,540 --> 03:04:47,540
I don't want to see it.

5421
03:04:47,600 --> 03:04:50,660
They're likely tied to climate, housing trends, and

5422
03:04:50,660 --> 03:04:51,680
travel costs.

5423
03:04:52,520 --> 03:04:53,980
People, they just bring them around.

5424
03:04:54,180 --> 03:04:57,140
Pest control experts suggest checking all furniture at

5425
03:04:57,140 --> 03:04:59,600
your hotel or rental unit to avoid bringing

5426
03:04:59,600 --> 03:05:02,080
any bugs back home with you.

5427
03:05:02,160 --> 03:05:03,780
I can't wait for Tina to hear the

5428
03:05:03,780 --> 03:05:04,060
show.

5429
03:05:04,920 --> 03:05:06,540
She'll be checking the furniture.

5430
03:05:06,880 --> 03:05:09,460
She'll be checking the cabinets, the closets, everything.

5431
03:05:09,600 --> 03:05:10,740
We don't want bedbugs.

5432
03:05:10,800 --> 03:05:11,440
That's gross.

5433
03:05:11,640 --> 03:05:13,140
It's gross, I tell you.

5434
03:05:13,500 --> 03:05:13,980
Bedbugs.

5435
03:05:14,920 --> 03:05:17,440
There was a couple of years during this

5436
03:05:17,440 --> 03:05:20,740
show era that, and it is an era

5437
03:05:20,740 --> 03:05:24,020
at this point, the No Agenda era, we

5438
03:05:24,020 --> 03:05:24,580
should note that.

5439
03:05:24,700 --> 03:05:26,120
I prefer to call it a season.

5440
03:05:27,360 --> 03:05:29,080
Well, it's more than a season, believe me.

5441
03:05:30,300 --> 03:05:33,260
So during the No Agenda era, there was,

5442
03:05:33,460 --> 03:05:35,260
if you remember, there was about a year's

5443
03:05:35,260 --> 03:05:36,740
worth of bedbug stories.

5444
03:05:36,760 --> 03:05:37,040
Sure.

5445
03:05:37,220 --> 03:05:39,980
Because that was the fear of the day.

5446
03:05:40,620 --> 03:05:42,960
Well, there were bedbugs in the theaters.

5447
03:05:43,560 --> 03:05:45,580
That's where it started, yes.

5448
03:05:45,900 --> 03:05:48,440
We had, let me see, 2020.

5449
03:05:48,840 --> 03:05:50,080
Bedbugs in the theaters.

5450
03:05:50,380 --> 03:05:53,520
Yeah, well, that happened in France.

5451
03:05:53,700 --> 03:05:55,120
The bedbugs were in the theaters.

5452
03:05:56,740 --> 03:05:59,200
And let me see, was this in 2020?

5453
03:05:59,500 --> 03:06:01,860
Coming up, it's a feeding frenzy on the

5454
03:06:01,860 --> 03:06:02,220
move.

5455
03:06:02,380 --> 03:06:04,440
Bedbugs are giving people nightmares.

5456
03:06:04,900 --> 03:06:07,800
Over the last 10 years, their population has

5457
03:06:07,800 --> 03:06:08,880
been exploding.

5458
03:06:08,880 --> 03:06:11,260
Tonight, we know why the insects are crawling

5459
03:06:11,260 --> 03:06:14,400
out of beds and into movie theaters, classrooms,

5460
03:06:14,700 --> 03:06:15,220
and more.

5461
03:06:15,520 --> 03:06:16,600
2020, yeah.

5462
03:06:17,000 --> 03:06:19,260
Yeah, that was all during the No Agenda

5463
03:06:19,260 --> 03:06:19,440
era.

5464
03:06:19,620 --> 03:06:21,720
Do you see now why we have boomer

5465
03:06:21,720 --> 03:06:22,160
benefits?

5466
03:06:22,780 --> 03:06:23,420
Do you understand?

5467
03:06:24,020 --> 03:06:28,260
Yeah, but besides our knowledge base, the two

5468
03:06:28,260 --> 03:06:30,580
of us combined is 100 years plus.

5469
03:06:32,160 --> 03:06:32,680
Easy.

5470
03:06:34,260 --> 03:06:41,420
It's the show archives itself are unbelievable.

5471
03:06:41,780 --> 03:06:44,880
What you just, right there within 20 seconds,

5472
03:06:45,200 --> 03:06:48,660
you found a bedbug clip exactly explaining what

5473
03:06:48,660 --> 03:06:50,840
the problem was, was just bedbugs in theaters.

5474
03:06:51,300 --> 03:06:53,100
And it came, what we forgot, of course,

5475
03:06:53,160 --> 03:06:54,380
is it came from France.

5476
03:06:54,460 --> 03:06:54,780
Yes.

5477
03:06:56,000 --> 03:06:57,500
Or I forgot that you remembered.

5478
03:06:57,640 --> 03:06:57,940
Yes.

5479
03:06:58,820 --> 03:07:00,360
So your point being?

5480
03:07:00,360 --> 03:07:02,800
People should think about what we just did

5481
03:07:02,800 --> 03:07:04,520
and say, you know, we should give these

5482
03:07:04,520 --> 03:07:07,460
guys at least five bucks or subscribers something.

5483
03:07:07,820 --> 03:07:09,940
I'm going to show my support by donating

5484
03:07:09,940 --> 03:07:10,740
to No Agenda.

5485
03:07:10,780 --> 03:07:11,040
Nailed it.

5486
03:07:11,040 --> 03:07:12,720
Imagine all the people who could do that.

5487
03:07:12,720 --> 03:07:13,040
They did.

5488
03:07:13,140 --> 03:07:14,060
Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.

5489
03:07:14,520 --> 03:07:15,160
Nailed it.

5490
03:07:20,840 --> 03:07:23,200
And we still have plenty of show to

5491
03:07:23,200 --> 03:07:23,440
come.

5492
03:07:23,520 --> 03:07:25,580
I have some actual real-world ISOs that

5493
03:07:25,580 --> 03:07:28,500
may be worth selecting for our end-of

5494
03:07:28,500 --> 03:07:28,860
-show ISO.

5495
03:07:28,860 --> 03:07:32,660
We have some dynamite, Iran, Iran end-of

5496
03:07:32,660 --> 03:07:33,840
-show mixes on the way.

5497
03:07:33,940 --> 03:07:34,840
John's tip of the day.

5498
03:07:34,940 --> 03:07:36,020
And of course, we have a night.

5499
03:07:36,140 --> 03:07:36,980
We have two dames.

5500
03:07:37,120 --> 03:07:38,600
I think we have some PhDs.

5501
03:07:38,960 --> 03:07:39,440
And the birthdays.

5502
03:07:39,660 --> 03:07:41,280
But first, John is going to thank our

5503
03:07:41,280 --> 03:07:43,900
very short list of donors that we still

5504
03:07:43,900 --> 03:07:45,360
want to thank, $50 and above.

5505
03:07:46,520 --> 03:07:49,340
Yeah, and I noticed that our dame in

5506
03:07:49,340 --> 03:07:51,420
the Sparks, Nevada is missing because I think

5507
03:07:51,420 --> 03:07:54,340
she, that was, again, the problem with PayPal.

5508
03:07:54,740 --> 03:07:57,220
Because she's been giving us money every show.

5509
03:07:57,820 --> 03:07:59,720
And we'll hear from her shortly.

5510
03:07:59,920 --> 03:08:00,260
Yeah, I'm sure.

5511
03:08:00,380 --> 03:08:03,420
So, we start with a Vienna donation from

5512
03:08:03,420 --> 03:08:06,620
the, of all places, Vienna, Austria.

5513
03:08:08,080 --> 03:08:14,940
From Balaza, Czecho, I think, Chesco, Chesco, something.

5514
03:08:15,720 --> 03:08:16,640
I don't know.

5515
03:08:16,760 --> 03:08:17,620
I'll never get that name.

5516
03:08:17,720 --> 03:08:20,340
It's not Austrian, I don't think.

5517
03:08:20,940 --> 03:08:22,660
106.41. Nice.

5518
03:08:22,700 --> 03:08:23,120
Thank you.

5519
03:08:23,120 --> 03:08:26,580
Michael Edmond in Brookings, South Dakota.

5520
03:08:26,700 --> 03:08:27,260
100.

5521
03:08:27,800 --> 03:08:29,400
He's in FEMA Region 8.

5522
03:08:31,440 --> 03:08:32,900
Ian Field.

5523
03:08:34,480 --> 03:08:35,540
I'm sorry.

5524
03:08:35,660 --> 03:08:36,940
Michael needs a de-douching.

5525
03:08:38,980 --> 03:08:40,660
You've been de-douched.

5526
03:08:42,000 --> 03:08:43,960
Ian Field, our buddy, $100.

5527
03:08:44,480 --> 03:08:48,840
Jason Maurer in Vancouver, Washington.

5528
03:08:49,140 --> 03:08:49,720
100.

5529
03:08:50,000 --> 03:08:51,400
He's starting to use Stripe now.

5530
03:08:53,400 --> 03:08:58,220
Waxomized in Bergenshoek, Holland.

5531
03:08:59,540 --> 03:09:00,020
Bergenshoek.

5532
03:09:03,900 --> 03:09:08,720
Hook, 84.38. Kevin McLaughlin got through the

5533
03:09:08,720 --> 03:09:09,760
filter.

5534
03:09:09,960 --> 03:09:11,980
He's there with 8008.

5535
03:09:12,620 --> 03:09:14,780
He's the Archduke of Luna, lover of America,

5536
03:09:14,920 --> 03:09:15,600
lover of boobs.

5537
03:09:17,660 --> 03:09:19,440
Probably because he's on an automatic.

5538
03:09:19,480 --> 03:09:21,020
No, he's not automatic, because he adds a

5539
03:09:21,020 --> 03:09:21,120
boost.

5540
03:09:21,120 --> 03:09:21,560
No, he's not.

5541
03:09:21,560 --> 03:09:24,380
Could you squeeze, because he's writing different notes

5542
03:09:24,380 --> 03:09:25,380
all the time, so he can't do that

5543
03:09:25,380 --> 03:09:25,800
with automatic.

5544
03:09:26,480 --> 03:09:28,900
And he's asked, could you squeeze the melon

5545
03:09:28,900 --> 03:09:32,180
mix by Sound Guy Steve into the end

5546
03:09:32,180 --> 03:09:33,640
of the show mix, please?

5547
03:09:34,640 --> 03:09:35,440
Melon mix.

5548
03:09:35,580 --> 03:09:37,440
Oh, okay.

5549
03:09:37,860 --> 03:09:39,720
Yeah, because he asked for it, and he

5550
03:09:39,720 --> 03:09:40,660
is the Archduke.

5551
03:09:40,800 --> 03:09:41,860
Yes, I will take that.

5552
03:09:41,880 --> 03:09:43,100
He gets what he wants.

5553
03:09:43,220 --> 03:09:44,720
He totally gets what he wants.

5554
03:09:44,820 --> 03:09:45,400
That dude's awesome.

5555
03:09:45,400 --> 03:09:52,320
Philip Colburn in Warimu, New South Wales, Australia.

5556
03:09:54,300 --> 03:09:55,860
7373 says, see email.

5557
03:09:56,240 --> 03:09:57,480
We did not receive email.

5558
03:09:58,660 --> 03:10:01,860
Nicholas Leary in Columbus, Ohio, 7272.

5559
03:10:01,960 --> 03:10:05,340
Dame Becky in Arlington, Washington, 6996.

5560
03:10:05,400 --> 03:10:06,080
Oh, wait a minute.

5561
03:10:06,180 --> 03:10:08,840
There's Dame Rita right there in Sparks, Nevada,

5562
03:10:09,020 --> 03:10:09,680
67.

5563
03:10:10,680 --> 03:10:12,920
She looked in her wallet and said, wait

5564
03:10:12,920 --> 03:10:13,180
a minute.

5565
03:10:14,760 --> 03:10:15,560
These guys.

5566
03:10:15,760 --> 03:10:16,800
No, no, these guys.

5567
03:10:16,820 --> 03:10:17,300
Wait a minute, 67.

5568
03:10:17,560 --> 03:10:18,020
We'll do this.

03:11:40,460 --> 03:11:42,940
making the show 1775.

5601
03:11:43,120 --> 03:11:45,220

States of America show number on the next

5603
03:11:47,900 --> 03:11:48,300

03:11:48,640 --> 03:11:48,820
Big one.

5605
03:11:49,020 --> 03:11:49,540
Big show.

5606
03:11:49,700 --> 03:11:50,340
Big, big show.

5607
03:11:50,440 --> 03:11:51,220
Really big show.

5608
03:11:51,520 --> 03:11:53,840
And how about that being in our 250th

5609
03:11:53,840 --> 03:11:54,560
year, kind of?

5610
03:11:55,720 --> 03:11:56,160
Close.

5611
03:11:56,700 --> 03:11:57,140
Kind of close.

5612
03:11:57,180 --> 03:11:58,320
Yeah, well, kind of.

5613
03:11:58,400 --> 03:11:59,060
Close enough.

5614
03:11:59,460 --> 03:12:01,260
Well, we got a lot of 250s this

5615
03:12:01,260 --> 03:12:01,460
year.

5616
03:12:02,160 --> 03:12:04,620
A lot of different things happened 250 years

5617
03:12:04,620 --> 03:12:04,880
ago.

5618
03:12:04,940 --> 03:12:06,600
And we're just getting started, everybody.

5619
03:12:07,480 --> 03:12:10,060
Thank you so much to these producers, $50

5620
03:12:10,060 --> 03:12:10,640
and above.

5621
03:12:11,000 --> 03:12:13,360
We never mention anyone under 50 for reasons

5622
03:12:13,360 --> 03:12:16,540
of anonymity, but we appreciate those who do

5623
03:12:16,540 --> 03:12:16,860
so.

5624
03:12:16,960 --> 03:12:19,100
And of course, our sustaining donors, any amount,

5625
03:12:19,200 --> 03:12:22,260
any frequency, any donation that you want, actually,

5626
03:12:22,420 --> 03:12:23,580
because it's value for value.

5627
03:12:23,720 --> 03:12:25,580
The component of that is it's open.

5628
03:12:25,820 --> 03:12:26,700
The amount is open.

5629
03:12:26,820 --> 03:12:27,940
You do whatever you want.

5630
03:12:28,380 --> 03:12:30,220
Just send us back some value for the

5631
03:12:30,220 --> 03:12:32,000
value you feel that you receive from the

5632
03:12:32,000 --> 03:12:32,180

Welcome to the universe.

5638
03:12:48,260 --> 03:12:49,580
Give my nation, Marjorie.

5639
03:12:49,900 --> 03:12:52,880

5648
03:13:11,720 --> 03:13:13,940

5649
03:13:13,940 --> 03:13:15,760
happy birthday from everybody here at the best

5650
03:13:15,760 --> 03:13:17,460

5651
03:13:19,400 --> 03:13:22,880
So now we have our PhDs, Eric James

5652
03:13:22,880 --> 03:13:24,600
Tolbert and Claire Oakey.

5653
03:13:24,620 --> 03:13:27,400
Both of them received PhDs in media deconstruction.

5654
03:13:27,500 --> 03:13:29,080
You can go to noagenderings.com.

5655
03:13:29,080 --> 03:13:31,200
Fill out all the information where we can

5656
03:13:31,200 --> 03:13:31,740
send this to.

5657
03:13:31,840 --> 03:13:33,260
It's a very handsome certificate.

5658
03:13:33,620 --> 03:13:34,880
It is beautiful for framing.

5659
03:13:35,100 --> 03:13:37,100
Don't just stick it on your wall, frame

5660
03:13:37,100 --> 03:13:37,340
it.

5661
03:13:37,740 --> 03:13:40,000
It'll make it look so official because it

5662
03:13:40,000 --> 03:13:40,500
is official.

5663
03:13:40,800 --> 03:13:43,320
An official PhD from your No Agenda show.

5664
03:13:43,760 --> 03:13:46,540
Then we have One Night and One Dame.

5665
03:13:46,820 --> 03:13:49,360
This is the note that you read earlier

5666
03:13:49,360 --> 03:13:50,600
from my keeper, Shelly.

5667
03:13:51,140 --> 03:13:53,520
And with this, they commemorate their son, Colby,

5668
03:13:53,880 --> 03:13:54,840
who was the one who hit them in

5669
03:13:54,840 --> 03:13:56,280
the mouth, as mentioned on the show back

5670
03:13:56,280 --> 03:13:59,200
in early 2023, who succumbed to his demons.

5671
03:13:59,360 --> 03:14:01,060
Unfortunately, he's no longer with them anymore.

5672
03:14:01,620 --> 03:14:04,540
So again, their message is anyone out there

5673
03:14:04,540 --> 03:14:06,840
needs help, please call the suicide hotline.

5674
03:14:06,920 --> 03:14:07,620
You are not alone.

5675
03:14:07,720 --> 03:14:09,200
You are loved and you are important to

5676
03:14:09,200 --> 03:14:09,780
everybody.

5677
03:14:10,340 --> 03:14:12,080
With this donation, Shelly becomes a Dame.

5678
03:14:12,200 --> 03:14:14,160
Please name her Dame Shelly, holder of the

5679
03:14:14,160 --> 03:14:15,300
CDL and Dog Mama.

5680
03:14:15,740 --> 03:14:17,940
She wants squeaky toys and tennis balls at

5681
03:14:17,940 --> 03:14:18,540
the round table.

5682
03:14:18,640 --> 03:14:19,340
Already ordered.

5683
03:14:19,460 --> 03:14:21,400
Therefore, you keep up the fantastic work.

5684
03:14:22,060 --> 03:14:24,160
And Colby's favorite was Noodle Boy.

5685
03:14:24,160 --> 03:14:27,420
Now we'll do, let me get the, the

5686
03:14:27,420 --> 03:14:27,860
Noodle Boy.

5687
03:14:27,960 --> 03:14:29,880
We have, uh, we don't have, we don't

5688
03:14:29,880 --> 03:14:31,600
have a jingle for Noodle Boy, do we?

5689
03:14:31,640 --> 03:14:33,240
We have the, the Noodle Gun is what

5690
03:14:33,240 --> 03:14:33,700
we have.

5691
03:14:34,180 --> 03:14:35,180
No, we have the Noodle Boy.

5692
03:14:35,240 --> 03:14:36,000
It's not a jingle.

5693
03:14:36,120 --> 03:14:37,180
It's the whole thing.

5694
03:14:37,200 --> 03:14:37,760
Right, right.

5695
03:14:37,820 --> 03:14:40,480
But I'll do a, a Noodle Gun because

5696
03:14:40,480 --> 03:14:43,180
that is about the, the Noodle Boy and

5697
03:14:43,180 --> 03:14:43,900
karma for all.

5698
03:14:43,980 --> 03:14:45,100
We'll do that right now, actually.

5699
03:14:45,100 --> 03:14:47,480
I'm gonna shoot you in the face with

5700
03:14:47,480 --> 03:14:51,320
my Noodle Gun, you racist piece of shit.

5701
03:14:53,840 --> 03:14:57,520
I got my pasta glock locked and loaded.

5702
03:14:58,780 --> 03:15:00,580
You've got karma.

5703
03:15:02,140 --> 03:15:04,980
And with that, let's draw our blades, Mr.

5704
03:15:05,040 --> 03:15:05,500
Dvorak.

5705
03:15:05,640 --> 03:15:06,160
Bring out the blade.

5706
03:15:06,160 --> 03:15:07,220
That one right here.

5707
03:15:07,380 --> 03:15:08,040
Very nice.

5708
03:15:08,300 --> 03:15:11,500
Okay, Shelly popping up here right on the

5709
03:15:11,500 --> 03:15:13,340
podium along with Eric Tolbert.

5710
03:15:13,340 --> 03:15:16,100
Both of you have completed everything you need

5711
03:15:16,100 --> 03:15:17,520
to become a knight and a dame of

5712
03:15:17,520 --> 03:15:18,580

5713
03:15:18,680 --> 03:15:20,800
So I'm very proud to pronounce Kate Diaz

We have squeaky toys and tennis balls.

see the handsome ring for knights and for

5730
03:15:56,540 --> 03:15:57,600
dames, the signet ring.

So with that, you receive that with not

03:16:00,420 --> 03:16:03,540
just your certificate of authenticity, but also a

couple of sticks of wax so you can

5734
03:16:05,020 --> 03:16:06,380
seal your important correspondence.

5735
03:16:06,560 --> 03:16:08,140
And thank you both for supporting the Noah

5736
03:16:08,140 --> 03:16:08,820

03:16:19,460 --> 03:16:21,180
That is where the producers get together, talk

5741
03:16:21,180 --> 03:16:23,360
about important affairs like stuff we talk about

5742
03:16:23,360 --> 03:16:25,580
on the show and their opinions and their

5743
03:16:25,580 --> 03:16:28,220
conspiracies and whatever else is happening.

5744
03:16:28,540 --> 03:16:29,940
Knights and dames show up to these.

5745
03:16:30,020 --> 03:16:31,360
It's a good old hootenanny.

5746
03:16:31,460 --> 03:16:33,280
You can find all of these listed at

5747
03:16:33,280 --> 03:16:34,560
noagendermeetups.com.

5748
03:16:34,620 --> 03:16:36,300
And we love it when people get together

5749
03:16:36,300 --> 03:16:38,620
because that connection gives protection.

5750
03:16:38,620 --> 03:16:40,440
And these are the first responders in an

5751
03:16:40,440 --> 03:16:40,840
emergency.

5752
03:16:41,120 --> 03:16:43,080
Here is a meetup report from Fort Wayne,

5753
03:16:43,240 --> 03:16:44,120

from Fort Wayne.

5756
03:16:47,540 --> 03:16:48,600
We tried a location.

5757
03:16:48,700 --> 03:16:50,080
We tried once before, but last time we

5758
03:16:50,080 --> 03:16:52,080
were here, Trump got his ear pierced.

5759
03:16:52,180 --> 03:16:52,520
But anyway.

5760
03:16:55,360 --> 03:16:57,340

Say hi, Ann.

5763
03:16:58,980 --> 03:16:59,420
Hi.

5764
03:16:59,780 --> 03:17:01,380

5765
03:17:01,380 --> 03:17:02,060

03:17:04,120 --> 03:17:04,760
Yeah, baby.

5769
03:17:10,060 --> 03:17:10,960
Thank you for your courage.

5770
03:17:11,780 --> 03:17:13,720
Hey, Joe Biden, what's that in your diaper?

5771
03:17:14,020 --> 03:17:15,060
We'll fix that in post.

5772
03:17:16,200 --> 03:17:18,880

5773
03:17:18,880 --> 03:17:20,660

03:17:50,280 --> 03:17:51,820
And I have to move my car in

5790
03:17:51,820 --> 03:17:52,700
53 minutes.

5791
03:17:54,500 --> 03:17:55,800
In the morning, Sir Robert.

03:17:56,360 --> 03:17:58,180
In the morning, anonymous lady.

5793
03:17:58,580 --> 03:17:59,320
In the morning.

And our final media report.

5795
03:18:02,800 --> 03:18:04,880
None of these include their servers, by the

5796
03:18:04,880 --> 03:18:06,160
way, which I always request.

5797
03:18:06,160 --> 03:18:07,960
I love hearing the servers who say these

5798
03:18:07,960 --> 03:18:09,620
people are crazy, but they're kind of fun.

5799
03:18:09,640 --> 03:18:10,760
This is from Victoria.

5800
03:18:10,860 --> 03:18:11,440
What do you think, Rogue?

5801
03:18:12,660 --> 03:18:14,240
All right, here we are.

5802
03:18:14,380 --> 03:18:15,320
Friday afternoon.

5803
03:18:15,820 --> 03:18:16,760
No agenda meetup.

5804
03:18:17,260 --> 03:18:20,140
Friday beer at the Lighthouse Brewery.

5805
03:18:20,380 --> 03:18:23,080
This is Sir Rogue of the Taverns, Baron

5806
03:18:23,080 --> 03:18:23,980

5807
03:18:24,340 --> 03:18:27,260

Yes.

5810
03:18:29,660 --> 03:18:31,240
Also known as Winston Smith.

5811
03:18:31,780 --> 03:18:34,300
And for some reason, Rogue is not overly

5812
03:18:34,300 --> 03:18:35,160
enjoyable to him.

5813
03:18:35,160 --> 03:18:36,380
But that would be it.

5814
03:18:36,480 --> 03:18:39,100
This is our no agenda meetup report.

5815
03:18:39,540 --> 03:18:40,260
Have yourself a good day.

All right.

Oh, my God.

03:19:21,660 --> 03:19:23,500
So go to noagendameetups.com.

5842
03:19:23,560 --> 03:19:24,760
This is where you can find all the

5843
03:19:24,760 --> 03:19:25,100
meetups.

5844
03:19:25,220 --> 03:19:26,960
They're listed by region.

5845
03:19:27,140 --> 03:19:28,480
They're listed on a calendar.

5846
03:19:28,920 --> 03:19:30,260
It's very easy to find one.

5847
03:19:30,260 --> 03:19:32,140
If you can't find one near you, there's

5848
03:19:32,140 --> 03:19:33,020
an easy solution.

5849
03:19:33,340 --> 03:19:34,260
Start one yourself.

5850
03:19:34,400 --> 03:19:36,160
Go to noagendameetups.com.

5851
03:19:36,280 --> 03:19:39,560
Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all

5852
03:19:39,560 --> 03:19:41,740
the nights and days.

5853
03:19:41,920 --> 03:19:43,060
Bom, bom, bom.

5854
03:19:43,160 --> 03:19:45,420
You wanna be where you wanna be.

5855
03:19:45,700 --> 03:19:47,540
Triggered or hella lame.

5856
03:19:48,260 --> 03:19:51,720
You wanna be where everybody feels the same.

5857
03:19:51,740 --> 03:19:54,060
Baba-daba-daba-bom, bom, bom.

5858
03:19:54,060 --> 03:19:55,200
It's like, hi.

5859
03:19:57,130 --> 03:19:58,530
My ISO's won't.

5860
03:19:58,630 --> 03:19:59,130
What is that?

5861
03:19:59,290 --> 03:20:00,730
Unsupported file format.

5862
03:20:00,730 --> 03:20:01,510
that sucks.

5863
03:20:02,570 --> 03:20:04,030
I kind of like that ISO.

5864
03:20:04,270 --> 03:20:04,930
Hold on a second.

5865
03:20:05,690 --> 03:20:07,330
Do you have any ISOs for the...

5866
03:20:07,330 --> 03:20:08,730
There should be one in there, is there?

5867
03:20:10,270 --> 03:20:12,450
Yes, I do see one in here.

5868
03:20:12,590 --> 03:20:13,450
This is John's...

5869
03:20:13,450 --> 03:20:13,550
There's one.

5870
03:20:13,710 --> 03:20:14,910
Here's John's one ISO.

5871
03:20:14,930 --> 03:20:17,790
That was one bunker buster of a show.

5872
03:20:18,390 --> 03:20:22,650
Hmm, yeah, yeah, yeah.

5873
03:20:22,710 --> 03:20:23,330
I don't know.

5874
03:20:23,930 --> 03:20:24,490
Let me see.

5875
03:20:24,510 --> 03:20:25,330
I got a couple here.

5876
03:20:25,410 --> 03:20:25,970
What's this one?

5877
03:20:26,050 --> 03:20:26,870
Let me check this one out.

5878
03:20:26,970 --> 03:20:28,830
There is no exit strategy.

5879
03:20:29,690 --> 03:20:31,430
Hmm, I got that one.

5880
03:20:31,590 --> 03:20:32,020
I have...

5881
03:20:33,130 --> 03:20:33,970
Bye-bye.

5882
03:20:36,510 --> 03:20:38,910
No, okay.

5883
03:20:39,050 --> 03:20:39,990
Keep it a hundred, bro.

5884
03:20:41,650 --> 03:20:43,210
And we're sorry, citizen.

5885
03:20:43,350 --> 03:20:45,310
You violated the terms of our agreement here

5886
03:20:45,310 --> 03:20:45,830
in the office.

5887
03:20:46,210 --> 03:20:47,530
I don't even know where that comes from.

5888
03:20:47,530 --> 03:20:48,230
Sounds like me.

5889
03:20:49,570 --> 03:20:51,610
And this one I think is maybe useful.

5890
03:20:51,830 --> 03:20:54,050
Well, I'm sick and tired of smart guys.

5891
03:20:54,050 --> 03:20:54,550
Hmm?

5892
03:20:56,190 --> 03:20:57,490
Uh, it was Biden.

5893
03:20:57,990 --> 03:20:58,190
Yeah.

5894
03:20:59,430 --> 03:20:59,930
When he was...

5895
03:20:59,930 --> 03:21:00,290
Well, it's...

5896
03:21:00,290 --> 03:21:01,090
I think we've tried to...

5897
03:21:01,090 --> 03:21:02,550
I think you tried to slip that one

5898
03:21:02,550 --> 03:21:03,470
in once before.

5899
03:21:03,670 --> 03:21:05,890
Well, I'm sick and tired of smart guys.

5900
03:21:06,190 --> 03:21:07,650
Well, I kind of like it.

5901
03:21:07,730 --> 03:21:08,530
I mean, it's got...

5902
03:21:08,530 --> 03:21:11,050
I like the bunker buster because it wraps

5903
03:21:11,050 --> 03:21:13,250
the show around because it started with bunker

5904
03:21:13,250 --> 03:21:13,770
buster.

5905
03:21:14,210 --> 03:21:17,130
That was one bunker buster of a show.

5906
03:21:17,290 --> 03:21:20,050
Yeah, well, it is AI, but then again,

5907
03:21:20,170 --> 03:21:20,810
so is everything.

5908
03:21:20,930 --> 03:21:22,430
I'm not even sure I'm talking to John

5909
03:21:22,430 --> 03:21:22,870
anymore.

5910
03:21:23,390 --> 03:21:24,530
It could just be...

5911
03:21:24,530 --> 03:21:26,190
You are talking to John.

5912
03:21:26,330 --> 03:21:26,670
All right.

5913
03:21:26,770 --> 03:21:27,970
You are talking to John.

5914
03:21:28,110 --> 03:21:29,650
You are not talking to AI.

5915
03:21:29,890 --> 03:21:30,930
Tip of the day time.

5916
03:21:42,310 --> 03:21:44,630
All right, I have a website to plug.

5917
03:21:44,930 --> 03:21:46,110
A website plug.

5918
03:21:47,070 --> 03:21:49,690
Yeah, we do website plugs in the rotation.

5919
03:21:50,130 --> 03:21:50,550
We do website plugs.

5920
03:21:50,550 --> 03:21:51,990
If anyone ever is going to buy a

5921
03:21:51,990 --> 03:21:54,330
digital camera, a used one in particular or

5922
03:21:54,330 --> 03:21:57,590
a new one, there's a website that...

5923
03:21:57,590 --> 03:22:00,590
Don't go to the computer magazines or online

5924
03:22:00,590 --> 03:22:00,870
stuff.

5925
03:22:00,970 --> 03:22:03,370
There's one website that all they do is

5926
03:22:03,370 --> 03:22:05,970
review digital photography stuff.

5927
03:22:06,490 --> 03:22:08,890
They review every camera that's ever come out.

5928
03:22:08,990 --> 03:22:10,510
You can go look at their old reviews

5929
03:22:10,510 --> 03:22:11,570
if you want to buy a used...

5930
03:22:11,570 --> 03:22:12,030
A lot of people...

5931
03:22:12,030 --> 03:22:14,010
Buying a used digital camera is not a

5932
03:22:14,010 --> 03:22:16,370
bad idea in today's world because they really

5933
03:22:16,370 --> 03:22:19,270
got to a very high peak five years

5934
03:22:19,270 --> 03:22:22,030
ago and they're still very useful, these cameras.

5935
03:22:22,470 --> 03:22:23,930
But which one would you get?

5936
03:22:24,710 --> 03:22:27,070
And then there's lenses and other things that

5937
03:22:27,070 --> 03:22:27,770
these guys review.

5938
03:22:28,030 --> 03:22:28,170
What?

5939
03:22:28,410 --> 03:22:28,770
Lenses?

5940
03:22:29,090 --> 03:22:29,470
Lenses?

5941
03:22:29,830 --> 03:22:30,810
There's different lenses?

5942
03:22:31,110 --> 03:22:32,470
I have five on my iPhone.

5943
03:22:32,550 --> 03:22:33,770
I don't need different lenses.

5944
03:22:34,510 --> 03:22:38,410
So this is for people who realize that

5945
03:22:38,410 --> 03:22:40,170
a camera is still better than a phone

5946
03:22:40,170 --> 03:22:41,050
for taking a photo.

5947
03:22:41,310 --> 03:22:43,870
But I mean, the phone does a great

5948
03:22:43,870 --> 03:22:44,250
job.

5949
03:22:44,310 --> 03:22:45,190
Is that true, though?

5950
03:22:45,270 --> 03:22:47,270
Is a camera better than a phone these

5951
03:22:47,270 --> 03:22:47,670
days?

5952
03:22:48,190 --> 03:22:48,430
Yeah.

5953
03:22:49,270 --> 03:22:51,450
Just look at the little dinky lens and

5954
03:22:51,450 --> 03:22:51,830
the whole...

5955
03:22:51,830 --> 03:22:52,230
Come on.

5956
03:22:52,370 --> 03:22:52,910
It's all...

5957
03:22:52,910 --> 03:22:54,270
And talk about AI.

5958
03:22:54,570 --> 03:22:57,470
The thing is processing the picture.

5959
03:22:57,670 --> 03:22:58,930
It's probably changing the color.

5960
03:22:59,030 --> 03:23:00,090
Oh, it's changing everything.

5961
03:23:00,250 --> 03:23:01,370
The whole thing is ridiculous.

5962
03:23:01,790 --> 03:23:02,370
That's why they're better.

5963
03:23:02,530 --> 03:23:04,650
People like the pictures because they're like, oh,

5964
03:23:04,670 --> 03:23:05,710
I look good in this.

5965
03:23:06,310 --> 03:23:06,530
Yeah.

5966
03:23:07,090 --> 03:23:08,570
That's the whole point.

5967
03:23:09,810 --> 03:23:11,030
DPreview.com.

5968
03:23:11,570 --> 03:23:12,650
DPreview.com.

5969
03:23:12,770 --> 03:23:13,890
Highly recommended website.

5970
03:23:14,150 --> 03:23:14,250
Yeah.

5971
03:23:14,250 --> 03:23:15,170
Be careful.

5972
03:23:15,370 --> 03:23:17,550
There's other DP websites out there.

5973
03:23:17,590 --> 03:23:18,510
You want to be kind of careful.

5974
03:23:18,910 --> 03:23:19,810
DPreview.com.

5975
03:23:19,810 --> 03:23:20,190
One word.

5976
03:23:21,050 --> 03:23:22,410
DPreview.com.

5977
03:23:22,530 --> 03:23:23,210
I'm just saying.

5978
03:23:34,610 --> 03:23:39,810
I only do it as a public service.

5979
03:23:39,950 --> 03:23:41,530
I want to help people.

5980
03:23:41,730 --> 03:23:43,370
I want to warn them for the perils.

5981
03:23:43,450 --> 03:23:44,870
The perils that could be out there.

5982
03:23:45,330 --> 03:23:45,650
Yes.

5983
03:23:46,810 --> 03:23:47,410
All right.

5984
03:23:47,430 --> 03:23:49,130
By request for the end of show mix,

5985
03:23:49,210 --> 03:23:53,050
we've added the Melon Mix from Soundguy Steve

5986
03:23:53,050 --> 03:23:54,850
for our Archduke of Luna and the Love

5987
03:23:54,850 --> 03:23:55,930
of America and Boobs.

5988
03:23:56,330 --> 03:23:58,670
Along with that comes James Trees.

5989
03:23:59,390 --> 03:24:00,430
That's the song you like.

5990
03:24:00,530 --> 03:24:02,690
The War in Iraq and a classic because

5991
03:24:02,690 --> 03:24:04,250
they're all classic because you can use them

5992
03:24:04,250 --> 03:24:05,690
every five years.

5993
03:24:06,350 --> 03:24:08,510
A medley from our very own Jesse Coy

5994
03:24:08,510 --> 03:24:08,870
Nelson.

5995
03:24:09,130 --> 03:24:10,270
That is coming up in our end of

5996
03:24:10,270 --> 03:24:10,790
show mixes.

5997
03:24:11,210 --> 03:24:12,850
Do stay tuned for that.

5998
03:24:13,310 --> 03:24:15,350
They're toe tappers, I tell you.

5999
03:24:15,450 --> 03:24:16,410
Real toe tappers.

6000
03:24:17,210 --> 03:24:19,710
Up next on the No Agenda stream, trollroom

6001
03:24:19,710 --> 03:24:21,550
.io, and if you just keep listening to

6002
03:24:21,550 --> 03:24:24,650
your modern podcast app, you will hear Podcasting

6003
03:24:24,650 --> 03:24:27,090
2.0, where we talk about, well, about

6004
03:24:27,090 --> 03:24:30,730
Spotify, getting on board, kind of, and other

6005
03:24:30,730 --> 03:24:32,670
things about the future of podcasting.

6006
03:24:33,370 --> 03:24:35,290
We'll be back on Thursday to bring you

6007
03:24:35,290 --> 03:24:36,710
more media deconstruction.

6008
03:24:36,870 --> 03:24:38,350
Until then, coming to you from the heart

6009
03:24:38,350 --> 03:24:40,490
of the Texas Hill Country, where not everybody's

6010
03:24:40,490 --> 03:24:41,690
happy with President Trump.

6011
03:24:42,870 --> 03:24:43,830
Fredericksburg, Texas.

6012
03:24:44,010 --> 03:24:45,010
In the morning, everybody.

6013
03:24:45,130 --> 03:24:45,810
I'm Adam Curry.

6014
03:24:46,190 --> 03:24:49,350
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where everybody's going

6015
03:24:49,350 --> 03:24:52,130
to noagendadonations.com today.

6016
03:24:52,310 --> 03:24:52,990
I'm John C.

6017
03:24:53,090 --> 03:24:53,410
Dvorak.

6018
03:24:53,490 --> 03:24:54,990
We will talk to you again on Thursday.

6019
03:24:55,170 --> 03:24:57,490
Until then, adios, slow foes.

6020
03:24:58,270 --> 03:24:59,170
Hooey, hooey.

6021
03:24:59,630 --> 03:25:00,390
And such.

6022
03:25:01,050 --> 03:25:02,170
I love melons.

6023
03:25:02,350 --> 03:25:04,630
Did you know there are over 40 different

6024
03:25:04,630 --> 03:25:05,990
types of melons out there?

6025
03:25:06,150 --> 03:25:09,330
Kevin McLaughlin in Concord, North Carolina, says honey

6026
03:25:09,330 --> 03:25:10,130
do melons.

6027
03:25:10,190 --> 03:25:11,610
He just wrote that in there for some

6028
03:25:11,610 --> 03:25:11,890
reason.

6029
03:25:12,030 --> 03:25:12,810
He likes melons.

6030
03:25:12,950 --> 03:25:14,750
Golden Delicious Melons.

6031
03:25:14,950 --> 03:25:16,210
The Galea Melon.

6032
03:25:16,730 --> 03:25:18,150
Horned Melons.

6033
03:25:18,330 --> 03:25:20,350
The only melons that are there in the

6034
03:25:20,350 --> 03:25:20,630
world.

6035
03:25:20,730 --> 03:25:23,230
There are over 40 different types of melons.

6036
03:25:23,330 --> 03:25:25,430
Summertime is the perfect time to show off

6037
03:25:25,430 --> 03:25:26,590
your melons, ladies.

6038
03:25:27,570 --> 03:25:29,890
Honey Globe Melons.

6039
03:25:30,130 --> 03:25:31,970
Honey Globe Melons, Chase.

6040
03:25:32,650 --> 03:25:33,910
Camouflage Melons.

6041
03:25:34,150 --> 03:25:37,070
Shoppers in Aisle 3, Camouflage Melons.

6042
03:25:37,350 --> 03:25:39,650
Jade Dew Melon Donation.

6043
03:25:39,950 --> 03:25:42,230
Jade Dew is another literal melon.

6044
03:25:42,690 --> 03:25:43,310
And I've had those.

6045
03:25:43,390 --> 03:25:43,890
They're pretty good.

6046
03:25:44,050 --> 03:25:45,830
I think the Tuscan Melon is my favorite.

6047
03:25:46,070 --> 03:25:47,330
Ah, you just love melons.

6048
03:25:47,710 --> 03:25:49,250
The Picasso Melon.

6049
03:25:49,890 --> 03:25:51,130
Calabash Melons.

6050
03:25:51,350 --> 03:25:53,310
That's Calabash Melons.

6051
03:25:53,510 --> 03:25:54,490
The Kiss Melon.

6052
03:25:54,770 --> 03:25:56,350
It's got a big tongue that comes out

6053
03:25:56,350 --> 03:25:56,530
of it.

6054
03:25:56,630 --> 03:25:57,810
The Papaya Melon.

6055
03:25:58,010 --> 03:25:59,350
The Balin Melon.

6056
03:25:59,610 --> 03:26:02,090
The Yubari King Melon.

6057
03:26:02,350 --> 03:26:03,370
Autumn Sweets.

6058
03:26:03,710 --> 03:26:06,430
Autumn Sweets, the melon of choice for connoisseurs.

6059
03:26:06,810 --> 03:26:08,390
He's going to run out of melons, by

6060
03:26:08,390 --> 03:26:08,610
the way.

6061
03:26:08,650 --> 03:26:10,050
I don't want to make melons a variety

6062
03:26:10,050 --> 03:26:10,310
show.

6063
03:26:10,310 --> 03:26:11,770
Oh, I think he's got them.

6064
03:26:11,850 --> 03:26:13,590
But he hasn't even said watermelon yet.

6065
03:26:13,910 --> 03:26:14,210
Exactly.

6066
03:26:16,750 --> 03:26:17,690
Cantola Melon.

6067
03:26:17,790 --> 03:26:20,050
Another one I've never heard of, but you

6068
03:26:20,050 --> 03:26:20,150
know.

6069
03:26:20,210 --> 03:26:21,530
How long will he be able to come

6070
03:26:21,530 --> 03:26:22,350
up with melon names?

6071
03:26:24,110 --> 03:26:25,210
Korean Melons.

6072
03:26:25,330 --> 03:26:27,030
I love his melon assortment.

6073
03:26:27,270 --> 03:26:28,570
Gak Melons.

6074
03:26:28,570 --> 03:26:30,250
The Ananas Melon.

6075
03:26:30,550 --> 03:26:31,350
Never had one.

6076
03:26:31,530 --> 03:26:32,630
The Sprite Melon.

6077
03:26:33,170 --> 03:26:36,330
Charentais Melons, which is literally a melon.

6078
03:26:36,770 --> 03:26:39,890
Kevin McLaughlin's back, this time promoting the Snap

6079
03:26:39,890 --> 03:26:41,530
Melon for YouTube Discord.

6080
03:26:41,670 --> 03:26:42,770
I love melons!

6081
03:26:58,570 --> 03:27:01,850
And nobody will even have to care.

6082
03:27:01,970 --> 03:27:05,990
We're gonna be waving bye-bye to everyone,

6083
03:27:06,330 --> 03:27:07,470
you and me.

6084
03:27:07,650 --> 03:27:09,890
I'm gonna get a tan from the land

6085
03:27:09,890 --> 03:27:13,630
of fear, of nuclear fusion decay.

6086
03:27:14,150 --> 03:27:17,230
It's gonna be raining all over the world.

6087
03:27:18,190 --> 03:27:20,150
I'm gonna look so great.

6088
03:27:21,250 --> 03:27:29,310
It's gonna be a war we're ready for.

6089
03:27:42,660 --> 03:27:47,400
And I'm doing all I can to get

6090
03:27:47,400 --> 03:27:49,160
ready for world water free.

6091
03:27:49,800 --> 03:27:52,340
It's so exciting to look and see.

6092
03:27:52,760 --> 03:27:55,400
There's gonna be mushroom clouds everywhere.

6093
03:27:55,840 --> 03:27:58,620
And nobody will even have to care.

6094
03:27:58,780 --> 03:28:02,840
We're gonna be waving bye-bye to everyone,

6095
03:28:03,100 --> 03:28:04,300
you and me.

6096
03:28:04,480 --> 03:28:06,840
I'm gonna get a tan from the rays

6097
03:28:06,840 --> 03:28:10,500
of me, of nuclear fusion decay.

6098
03:28:11,000 --> 03:28:14,080
It's gonna be raining all over the world.

6099
03:28:15,020 --> 03:28:17,020
I'm gonna look so great.

6100
03:28:18,000 --> 03:28:19,980
There's gonna be a war with Iran.

6101
03:28:21,040 --> 03:28:25,360
And I'm doing all I can to get

6102
03:28:25,360 --> 03:28:27,020
ready for world water free.

6103
03:28:36,620 --> 03:28:39,040
There's gonna be a war with Iran.

6104
03:28:40,300 --> 03:28:47,940
And I'm doing all I can to get

6105
03:28:47,940 --> 03:28:49,220
ready to look and see.

6106
03:28:49,520 --> 03:28:52,260
There's gonna be mushroom clouds everywhere.

6107
03:28:52,700 --> 03:28:55,500
And nobody will even have to care.

6108
03:28:55,620 --> 03:28:59,560
We're gonna be waving bye-bye to everyone,

6109
03:28:59,860 --> 03:29:01,220
you and me.

6110
03:29:01,360 --> 03:29:03,680
I'm gonna get a tan from the rays

6111
03:29:03,680 --> 03:29:07,180
of me, of nuclear fusion decay.

6112
03:29:07,820 --> 03:29:10,920
It's gonna be raining all over the world.

6113
03:29:11,920 --> 03:29:13,840
I'm gonna look so great.

6114
03:29:14,900 --> 03:29:16,940
There's gonna be a war with Iran.

6115
03:29:22,190 --> 03:29:23,570
Put in their masses.

6116
03:29:25,690 --> 03:29:27,290
This is a memo that describes how we're

6117
03:29:27,290 --> 03:29:29,730
going to take out seven countries in five

6118
03:29:29,730 --> 03:29:30,070
years.

6119
03:29:30,870 --> 03:29:33,590
Just like witches at black masses.

6120
03:29:35,810 --> 03:29:37,430
When I first came to office, one of

6121
03:29:37,430 --> 03:29:39,550
the first meetings I had was at the

6122
03:29:39,550 --> 03:29:40,930
Pentagon with generals.

6123
03:29:41,670 --> 03:29:44,450
Evil minds that plot destruction.

6124
03:29:46,550 --> 03:29:49,050
Bolton has always said, let's go to war,

6125
03:29:49,130 --> 03:29:50,710
but he's not the one who's gonna go

6126
03:29:50,710 --> 03:29:51,330
in the forefront.

6127
03:29:51,590 --> 03:29:52,290
He's a coward.

6128
03:29:53,570 --> 03:29:55,850
Sorcerer of death's construction.

6129
03:29:55,850 --> 03:29:56,470
Iran.

6130
03:29:57,670 --> 03:30:00,310
The leaders of Iran are racketeers.

6131
03:30:00,610 --> 03:30:02,750
Behind every problem is Iran.

6132
03:30:06,280 --> 03:30:08,720
They heard what you said in 2016 and

6133
03:30:08,720 --> 03:30:10,220
liked it when you said no more stupid

6134
03:30:10,220 --> 03:30:10,580
wars.

6135
03:30:12,190 --> 03:30:14,460
You got a rogue president in the White

6136
03:30:14,460 --> 03:30:17,840
House surrounded by these uber-hawks that thirst

6137
03:30:17,840 --> 03:30:19,580
for another war with Iran.

6138
03:30:20,820 --> 03:30:24,560
The International Atomic Energy Agency has never found

6139
03:30:24,560 --> 03:30:27,940
Iran in contravention of stipulations in the deal.

6140
03:30:29,980 --> 03:30:32,340
If Iran wants to fight, that will be

6141
03:30:32,340 --> 03:30:34,100
the official end of Iran.

6142
03:30:34,380 --> 03:30:37,060
Never threaten the United States again.

6143
03:30:37,240 --> 03:30:39,200
I'm not somebody that wants to go into

6144
03:30:39,200 --> 03:30:39,560
war.

6145
03:30:39,860 --> 03:30:43,460
Is the United States heading towards another Middle

6146
03:30:43,460 --> 03:30:44,220
East showdown?

6147
03:30:44,380 --> 03:30:45,680
This time with Iran.

6148
03:30:46,100 --> 03:30:49,220
Let's have a war so you can go

6149
03:30:49,220 --> 03:30:49,940
die.

6150
03:30:51,600 --> 03:30:57,160
The best podcast in the universe.

6151
03:30:57,960 --> 03:30:59,400
Adios, mofo.

6152
03:31:02,600 --> 03:31:06,540
That was one bunker buster of a show.
