No I love tool who doesn't? Adam curry?
Jhansi Devorah
Sunday December 16 2018. This is your award winning get my nation
media assassination episode 1095 This
is no agenda,
Grubin, to a green New Deal and broadcasting live from the
capital the drone Star state here in downtown Austin Tejas in
the CLEVEO in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where we're expecting another
Zephyr beater. And I'm predicting a nine car train. I'm
just kill.
Now you can really tell you gotta get out early today. Just
tossing to us
just tossing away lines. They're not even trying, man. Nine Nine
cars Zephyr beater, please. Yeah.
The number of cars has been varying during the Christmas
season, actually, from Thanksgiving on there was a 10.
Car trains mostly, generally is an eight car train. But I'm
noticing a few nine car trains coming by.
All right. And do these include the passengers? Or is it all
passengers or adult
passengers except for the there's one car that appears to
be a baggage car? Fabulous?
Well, I am not quite sure what is going on. But I do know that
you need to get out on time today. And I'm thinking I'm
thinking that's because you obviously have some work to do
tonight.
And that might be what
well, even though you said you gave up the beat. I think you
got to go back on it. Well, for the
first time ever. A transgender woman will compete for the title
of Miss Universe. This competition takes place this
weekend in Bangkok. And hola Ponce. Miss Payne says she's
proud of her role as pioneer.
I think that mindsets are changing today there are
positive references. People speak about the LGBT community
and the transgender community relapsed before it was always
underground and never spoken about. I think that people are
more informed. All these prejudices come from
disinformation.
Ponce says she entered the fashion world a decade ago and
she's been in beauty contests for the last four years. She's
gorgeous. She is isn't she Wow. And I love the dress.
There you go the first transgendered participant in the
in the Miss Universe contest.
We've been predicting this for years. The question is,
Will she win? No.
I, for one thing is a couple of things. I'll give my
predictions. I may or may not cover this. I doubt it. But
because I already said we're going to stop doing this. But
here's what's going to happen. I've seen enough of these. She's
maybe going to get to the top five so they can ask her a
question. So we can hear her voice. Do opening voice Yeah.
But we want to see what kind of what kind of a brain she has to
ask or something be it'll be lame. And then she'll end up I
don't think she'd be first runner up but she'll probably
come in third or fourth or something she may get missed.
She maybe just knocked out she doesn't have a very I don't
think and I am not even going to get into it in any details but I
think she she needs us to be nicer she had a lot smaller
waist. Oh, chunky. Oh,
you've actually done your diligence chunks. John. You
can't say chunky. You should know better than this.
Well, it's not chunky in the sense that what we think of as
chunky okay, but by the beauty pageant standards, I'd say yes.
No, Jimmy real chunky is more has an American style to it. I
just don't see as that that being that interesting. Yeah,
should get as far as she gets, which will probably be you know,
maybe in the top five, she may be bumped at you know, in a top
10 big bump on the nose. Got nothing. Nothing special going
on. She has does have the advantage of not having to do
like in the certain competitions where you have to have a skill.
God she doesn't have a skill she has. She doesn't have
she has a skilling up but she doesn't have you don't need to
do skills in his competition or Okay, so I Lenise gotcha.
Gotcha. So I'm not that jacked up about this.
Ah, you know, I'm still interested. I didn't say I was
jacked up about it. But, you know, the the bookies the
oddsmakers are saying she's got a good shot to win at least the
ones in the UK but yeah,
they like to hype every head. There's no chance in hell she's
gonna win. Okay,
well, you're the official official aficionado and
bets on his I'd bet against it. Alright, good. Sorry. So what do
we got it out of the things go on? I watch it was watching to
leave it means Lee Even convention of all these guys to
get some credits because for the next show regs it's fascinating
to listen to these EU
Brexit tears
give their little speeches and it's it's it's interesting they
have stuff in the this 500 Page tome that Theresa May wants to
use me in agree with a lot of these to say what's the point of
any of this? Why should we be giving 39 billion to the EU?
Let's just walk Yeah, look walked from the deal.
Everyone's talking no brains all
the time.
Yeah. People, everyone I talked to was saying it looks like it's
going to be a no deal Brexit. That would be the way to go.
Here's you want to hear Tony Blair real quick. He weighed his
guys off the off. He's, he's not helpful to Theresa Mays plight,
that's for sure what
leaders were saying to be when I first started having this
conversation a year ago, they would say to me, you have it,
it's never gonna happen another referendum. I think the mood has
changed in the last couple of months. And now people are
saying, well, could it really happen? I need to get the
European leaders to the next stage, which just realize the
probability is it's going to happen, and they've got to
prepare for it. Because one important component in any such
report referendum will be whether Europe is prepared to
meet what not just British concerns around the issues to do
with immigration but a European wide concerns. And I think you
could put together the right type of deal if you like for
which wouldn't just be about Britain, it would be about
Europe, and accepting that, for example, freedom of movement of
people in Europe has got to operate in a way that's fair and
just doesn't undercut wages. There's not going to be no deal
unless there's a combination of accidents in government and in
parliament that I can't foresee. So I'm not saying it's
impossible. But why would Parliament do that there's a
massive majority in Parliament against no deal. They're
definitely going to prefer a referendum to no deal. So I
don't think no deal is not the worry. The worry is that we end
up with a kind of botched Brexit, which is frankly, this
this deal that's on the table at the moment.
Are you still pushing for a do over?
Yeah, yeah, him and a few other losers. globalists,
the globalist globalism is all it is. I mean, we just just give
up our sovereignty. And we're done and the EU can tell us what
to do not even that he's will make the rule he's not
even that he's back to the freedom of movement, the freedom
and that's the
only thing the only sticking point they shouldn't have this
freedom of movement. It's because
it requires work visa in in different countries like I had
died needed to work visa when I when I lived in London, I had to
have a visa. This is very normal. So one out Yes,
of course I go on. Well, was it a pain in the ass? I didn't
feel free in my movement. Because I had to fill out a
form. You had to fill out a whole form and you'll have to
ever take hours and days Yes, and everyone's going no,
everyone's going to have to fill out forms all this is what it's
going to be like for traveling.
The EU has confirmed the introduction of the ATS, which
will become operational in early 2020. At es stands for EU travel
information and authorization system. All eligible travelers
regardless of any authorized Europe from 2020 onwards,
required to obtain electronic online prior to their departure.
The new requirement for European electronic Travel Authorization
such as the Etios is to strengthen EU border controls,
travelers will be required to complete an online application
form that covers a range of biometric travel and security
related questions. Then EOS application will then be
electronically processed within 96 hours and the authorization
will be delivered by email. Travelers data will be checked
against European and international databases,
including no fly lists to identify potential terrorist and
criminal threats will then be refused entry via the IDS sounds
like the same process for coming to America me. Travelers
that failed to obtain and at EOS will not be permitted to board a
plane or cruise ship to an EOS member country. visitors with a
valid at EOS will be available to travel to any US member
country. This
guy wraps it up in a great way, which include
popular European destinations such as France, Germany, Spain,
Italy, and 18 other countries for Edie OS news launch updates
and travel alerts visit Edie os.com
I love that guy.com It's riveting stuff. ideas.com Yeah,
so it's like, same thing we have. Yeah. fill out a form.
Get a beat Oh,
yeah. All right.
So you had a clip something Oh you had nothing Oh, okay
let's have discussion. Ah, I brought my I brought my
discussion with me okay I do know that this situation is
getting dire and it's not being helped by anybody and I think
this should just go the you know, no deal Brexit just get
out the longer this drags on the worse it's gonna be
yeah this there's all kinds of issues with the no deal Brexit
though and even though I promise it's making
time arm and by the way I'm armed with this information from
the lever not leave conference.
So tell me what is what are the consequences of a no deal?
Brexit?
Nothing?
Okay then how do we do trade with the EU? I'll just be the
same way the United States does or the same way Norway does it
the same way. Switzerland No. All
right. Well, we don't have a deal in place yet. Sorry. We
don't have a deal in place. We don't have any trade agreement.
What he needed deal for
do you need a trade agreement? Don't you? Don't you need a
basic trade agreement or not?
I buy stuff from Europe and I use other systems and this stuff
comes over. I don't have a trade agreement with the EU and I buy
my PJs.
Oh, come on. You know don't be an idiot. You know, there's
customs there's all kinds of stuff that goes on behind the
scenes even when you order something through Amazon from
the UK? Yeah, I don't know what conference you watch. But it was
lame. No was it you got no answers? I'm asking you a
serious question. I'm
telling you the answers that is the answer this the consequences
are minimal.
Said the man who lives not there. I don't live there I was
beefed up on the info based on the Believe it or not leave it
or leave it means leave at conference. All right.
So what was your takeaway from the conference? That this is a
lot
of nonsense. We just got a we what am I saying? We I get
nothing to do with it?
I don't know you're getting pretty tight with those levers.
It was all jacked
up by it.
The it's just get out. Get out what you can?
Well, they've certainly seem to scare the British public into
thinking that is the worst possible option. As witness.
Tony Blair just told us so. So.
Well, that's exactly that's one of the things that this
conference dealt with. Is the fear mongering, right. And if
one guy this guy was like, this was one pub, the pub King of
England, Wales like 1000 pubs, famous character, Tim something,
he I'll get some clips for the next show. No, no, he
was a big supporter of Brexit early on. We think we have a
clip of him somewhere years ago.
He's he goes on and on about how this is a bunch of fear
mongering it's got nothing to do with anything and it's just
scare the public into trying to do a redo because he can keep
doing that over and over and over again till somebody doesn't
show up and they win. It's not I think the whole thing is, I have
to listen to these characters. All major both sides of the
aisle, I mean, labour and Tory folk, Irish and non Irish and
Scots and everybody else in between. They think the whole
thing is a scam. There's this fear mongering and the prop guy
goes on about how the Eurozone was created and all the nonsense
that went on with that and all the fear mongering and and the
fear mongering, the Brexit vote itself, the stock market was
going to collapse and the economy's gonna go into a
tailspin if you voted yes nothing happened the pound lost
some value Yeah, all the British bankers are gonna leave nobody
left if I just did got more people working in London now
than before it's just one thing after another this is what is
something of a fraud
well then the fraud is the 39 billion euros that's the real
fraud ever
they really all we got into this is what is the point of giving
them 39 billion when the what it's doing is saying the no deal
Brexit means we've got $39 billion in our pockets right?
Well wait a minute that's even if you have a no deal Brexit who
they still pay the 39 billion euro
in there and in the UK Potkins because that you don't have to
pay the 39 out
wow well we've certainly been led to believe that this is not
just not possible.
Like just doesn't sound that way to me listening to these guys.
Well, you're the only one I wish I had brought it brought a clip
well, I'm sorry. I was listening to it this morning. Already
okay. So this is going on as we speak these guys. There it is
3456789 cars Zephyr
justice show you.
I'm so happy. Oh my god. Well, since we're talking about are
getting in and out of countries. And the paperwork you might need
for that things are changing rapidly and get more nation
proper here in the United States as something that I already
identified over in Europe on my last trip, and it seems that the
airlines are all on board and starting to crank it up here
smile,
your face is now your ticket on some of Delta's international
flights out of Atlanta. That means from baggage check in
through security and onto a Delta flight. Many passengers
will never take out an ID or look for a boarding pass. This
is going to be an entirely biometric concourse where
customers through facial recognition will not need paper
anymore. How does it work? If you're flying internationally,
you need a passport, which means your photo is in the US Customs
database. But instead of showing your passport when you check
bags, or go through security, as fliers have done for years,
Delta's biometric system will already know you're scheduled
for a specific flight. So when you stand in front of the
camera, facial recognition software will quickly verify
your identity, which means going through an airport should be
easier and faster for travelers who will no longer have to spend
time looking for and showing their paperwork to ticket and
security agents.
Remember, this is for your convenience. And we have men and
men, women women on the street to ask who will confirm this. If
you can save a little bit of time up front and get people
into that queue faster.
Then hopefully, this is making the airport screening process
that much more efficient. People spend a little bit less time
waiting, it's a little bit less stressful.
Other airlines are also testing facial recognition systems
hostility
stressful.
It's much less stressful because you don't have to think about
all your paperwork and having your ID in one hand and ticket
in the other. It's for you Don't you understand we're making your
life easier. Be quiet
strangers, and the private firm clear uses biometrics to
identify travelers at many airports. So it may not be long
before showing your ID and boarding pass will be a thing of
the past.
I like being quicker. There's always the invasion of privacy
sort of thing
about dude, like I'm not safe.
Listen, I was showing your ID and showing it ticket an
invasion of privacy. No, he's he's talking to your face.
That's what he's saying. He's saying that he finds this to be
kind of nothing. Okay. Yeah, no, you misunderstood the
thing of the past.
I like being quicker. There's always the invasion of privacy
sort of thing that you think about but safe and quick.
We love it. Sign us up. First in line.
Yeah, getting biometric screening for domestic flights
may take a little bit longer since travelers are not required
to show a passport in order to buy a domestic ticket.
Actually, you're not required to even show identification. By
law, you have actual freedom of movement in the United States.
But we're just going to make it sound easier for you. So you
just use your face no documentation needed, though.
There's no immediate database. But make no mistake, they will
get to work on that metric screening, Becky, it is rapidly
coming into how we will be boarding flights in the future.
Oh, it's
great. It's just good.
You made a point that needs to be re emphasized. We do have
freedom of movement in United States. There's only one or two
people that push the envelope on this. You do not need any ID to
get on an airplane.
You don't you probably miss your flight because they'll hassle
you but you don't need it legally. But this is this
is a scam that we've been scammed. The same thing going on
in the EU. They're scamming the public.
But you know, what's happening is that almost overnight, it's
happening so quickly. Face Recognition is being introduced
everywhere. Hertz now does it at for you for renting a car. It's
just going to be everywhere it's going to be our lives will be
filled with facial rec fingerprint. It's worse than a
fingerprint, because it's worse
than a fingerprint. But it's like our fingerprint and so far
as and people resisted the fingerprint thing.
It Yeah, well, this is because we're all used to cameras, and
we're finally we're docile now you know, it's like, Oh, so you
say Facebook has all my information. They've cut my
pictures anyway. But yeah, this is yeah, this is a very, like,
if you fingerprint, you can see a guy's fingerprint or is he
walking down the street or he's in the mall or any place and you
know that this is now taking place?
Well, the other thing that I believe is going on with this
sort of thing is fine tuning the systems. So it's so you're sure
the accuracy just increases because the sample size gets
bigger and bigger and bigger and keep using it
already. I'm very impressed by facial recognition. It really
is. I mean the smell See if you have the right camera for it the
technologies is actually pretty
good things you can try. Pat apparently you can take a
picture of an eyeball and he put it between the two eyeballs so
you can put your
eyeballs you have a third eyeball is that what third
eyeball work but
you have a third items by religion. You can put eyeballs
you're
done oh stop just stopped. This is the official no agenda TSA
evasion kit kit and it consists of a third eyeball sticker that
you write on your head this is another yet another exit
strategy.
I believe there's also some some uses of glassware that would
work and makeup might or might not
work on one of those glasses. Don't wear those glasses with
the googly eyes
that fall out to those I think that would be funny. But I think
the real killer here because they do it's done through you
know points they have to identify is the big get Taliban
beard.
I don't think that makes a difference. I think it seems
right. I don't think the beard does anything for facial
recognition.
I believe a Taliban beard so the cause of the
kit includes a sticker a third eye sticker a Taliban beard and
and the googly eyeglasses. Yeah, we can get this made in China
for for 20 cents and sell it for 20 bucks 20
gonna be rich.
exit strategy will be so rich. I do have a TSA clip. Apparently
they aren't finding too many guns and luggage they didn't
mention is some of they like like a couple 100% The amount of
guns that people are trying to travel with. Let's play this
clip.
New today TSA screeners have spotted a record number of guns
at airport checkpoints this year. Remember, Van Cleave has
the results of this investigation.
a loaded gun inside a carry on a Dallas Fort Worth airport it's a
scene playing out nearly 12
On a second Did I just hear someone rack that gun four times
or even maybe pulled the trigger dry
because if that was propped it up, while the
voiceover says a loaded gun. I wish I'd seen the video for this
on
inside a carry on a Dallas Fort Worth airport. Playing out news
got to start that over. I want to hear that again racking the
gun loaded gun ladies and gentlemen new
today TSA screeners have spotted a record number of guns at
airport checkpoints this year. Chris Van Cleave has the results
of an eight month investigation.
a loaded gun inside a carry on a Dallas Fort Worth airport. It's
a scene playing out nearly 12 times a day at TSA checkpoints
this year. More than 4000 times so far. Almost always. The flyer
says he was a mistake just
as much about
video from security cameras and police body cams at DFW airport
show some of the 211 incidents where a gun was found in a bag
at a TSA checkpoint in 2017. We bought like over online as
well that guns coming back stolen out of Florida.
Just 10 airports accounted for nearly a third of all incidents
last year. Police records from seven of them revealed at least
three cases where it appears the gun was missed by TSA screeners
at one airport and only discovered on the person's trip
home from excuse me sir TSA had no trouble spotting what was in
this 59 year old backpack, a loaded pistol and several
additional magazines of ammunition. In the vast majority
of cases, it's men 63% were white cars ranged in age from
their 30s to their 50s. But guns were found in the carry ons of
an 84 year old woman, a 10 year old boy in airport worker and a
pastor from Texas who told police he forgot the gun was in
his backpack. In addition to potential criminal penalties,
the TSA will seek a fine up to $13,000 in practice that we
found on average that fines around $1,100 All of the people
you saw in our story told police they didn't realize the gun was
in that bag.
Yeah, and I think that's very plausible.
Yeah, certainly if you're traveling from
like Texas, well, most of the airports were in Texas it looked
like Well, of course.
We're the eight holes here. Oh, eight hole men with loaded
rails. White loaded weapons. Weapons. Well, everything is
weaponized. I'll just take it back to technology for one
quickie clip. This one blew me away that this is happening in
in the malls in California. I don't know which mall what's K
Cal? Is that wo new UK Cal nine. I never heard of it. The K Cal
is the TV station. I mean no K cow. I never heard of cake and
then it must be Los Angeles together probably. So they have
these you've seen the stupid ass small robots that there's been a
couple stories you know it's a typical wired story or then
maybe Bloomberg shipping.
I saw a robot delivery robot in Berkeley roaming around
on the street. Yes. No. Yeah, I'm
driving back with Jay Z on the spot. I'm driving back dropping
her off or something. Yeah, picking her up. And it should
look there's a delivery robot and there's right on college
average things bouncing around the street.
Now what did it look like? Did it look like Lost in Space Robot
or it looks
a little like a loss of the space thing. It's very it's a
small but it's I got large. I got large box with four wheels
on it and a bunch of antennas and a light blinking light. And
it just broke rolls and wheels are probably about, I don't know
four inches in circumference or four inches in diameter.
SpaceForce so it's just
I've ever seen
well, so this is also a large dog. Well, I need to know more
about the delivery robot. The robot in the mall looks a bit
like what is the thing from Doctor Who?
I don't watch doc. No, I don't
either. But I know the robot thing. talech something? Yeah,
yeah, yeah. Well, that shows you how we're out of touch. We are
with Dr. Ho, Daleks darlings. It's doctor who was a woman now
this thing has never stopped
scanning. And she'll probably win the Miss Universe.
All right, so on. So the so the it looks like a Dalek and it
runs around the mall. And it looks completely on, you know,
just like it couldn't harm you at all. It's spin and it's got
lights. It's, it's the whole thing is a joke, but it's not.
This is what it's doing. In fact, as far as robots go,
this one is state of the art equipped with very high tech
cameras that are designed to pick up almost anything and
everything. As it roams. The mall is picking
up video footage. It's picking up MAC addresses. So it's able
to pick up a lot of information that humans just aren't capable
of.
MAC addresses. This is what Google got excoriated for doing.
So it's it's snooping on you. It's picking up your Mac
addresses from that's that's the unique Yeah. Networking network
adapter in your phone. Each one has a unique MAC ma c MAC
address and you can spoof it. It's like it's like a an IP
address. But it's it's a much longer numbers. You need it to
your device. Well, sure it's spoof of both but that's not the
point. Everyone's being spied on.
Yeah, no, it's disgusting.
And K Cal is indeed in Los Angeles, or they deserve it.
San Angeles. Hi, just
since when is this just brought as Oh, that's fine. That's okay.
Because it's a cute little robot roaming around bouncing around.
She knows about these robots. It gets it. She's seen a few of
them in Berkeley, as well as somebody who's going kick the
thing it gives it a full ride. Oh, right.
That's what you think. She's,
there's people watching these things. And they go back and
they put them back upright again. And off they go. So what
good is the robot had to have a girl but Bandler.
And doesn't matter. The fact that they're doing this just
says a lot.
And by the way, today, is it today? I think it's right around
this time. Maybe? Maybe it was on Thursday, was exactly one
year since the FCC voted out net neutrality. Have we done?
Is your Netflix soul Hell's broke? Is your Netflix slow?
Did you get a call if I got your best bid now?
Do you have to call your your your working better than ever to
get a package deal? So I can actually listen to the no agenda
show? Is that happened yet? Everybody as it happened? No,
no, but it's going to oh,
it will in California and you guys got net net neutrality. I
can't wait to see how that actually packs out. unpacks
there's all kinds of stuff in California. You know, we didn't
get to talk about this on the last show. But I do want to get
your feedback from this proposal, which sounds like an
onion story. But just peeling back the letter layers gets
worse as you learn more about it. California Public Utilities
Commission is set to vote next month on a proposal to tax your
text messages.
regulators say the money would be used to support programs that
provide phone service to the poor. It's unclear how much
though that you'd have to pay per message. The wireless
industry and business groups are fighting the plan. They say that
it could cost phone users an extra $44 million a year. They
also say the proposal is unfair because services like Facebook's
messenger and Apple's iMessage wouldn't be hit with this new
fee.
Everybody including minority got Obama, Obama and President you
now gave us a fall.
That's where it all started. It's a crazy idea. Well, it's
a flat fee. And when they do it on demand on this Read I wish I
had some of these clips because I saw many of them. It's always
dingbats. Oh, you know if it helps to poor people.
Let me just understand what are they going to? Because if cell
phone bill if you look at it this Emily's in the United
States Oh, what is this all kinds of surcharge?
Five bucks on top of everything else fee that you see on your
cell phone bill? Yeah, that is the additional fee, it'll be
called something you know it'd be blatantly something like four
to $5 It's not ideal per se, Jack abiotic has led us to
paying hundreds of dollars for the stupid phone every month.
But is it based on your text message usage or just a one?
Okay, so that so they're kind of they're presenting it a little
skewed then? Yeah, as I've heard, they're going to tax you
retroactively. For all the text messages you sent and things who
you and I are probably the only people left in America using SMS
text messaging.
Do is oh are using I don't even know what it is
when you?
Yes, when you text me about the newsletter, that's pure SMS text
messaging, okay, and everyone else is using iMessage. Now,
circumventing the whole system locking themselves in I might
say, Man, this iMessage it's hard to get off of it once once
you got all your friends with iMessage and then you go away,
then all of a sudden you get kicked out of the group. Okay to
group messages if anybody were to go, of course it is open
standards,
open standards open source, but it's not
open. It's open source. It's a standard open source
open source. Okay. So I picked up a job talking about the
dingbats out there, which I think is kind of somewhat
thematic. I picked up this does a show that I never heard of and
then I started watching it it's done by the for the Farrelly
brothers or brothers Peter and which is a couple of movie guys
who get into TV once in a while so they they did a show
specifically, this is the worst show in terms of distribution
you'll ever if you can't even find a copy of the bootleg copy.
It's only on AT and T UVerse. And it's an AT and T produced
show. For AT and T
sounds like a winner. Yeah,
well it's actually the show is quite fun. It's called louder
milk. That's gotten into his third sir third season but I do
have a scene from it to show you what kind of typical Forelli
brothers kind of Gag there is. This is louder milks vocal fry
gag.
Do you need to set this up? What am I going to see here?
It's a guy yeah, the guy that lead characters waiting in line
at a coffee shop and then he runs into some girl with his
vocal fry thing and he just goes off on her. Oh, can I get you?
The large coffee?
Or hot coffee?
Hot coffee?
Okay room for crying. Totally leave room for cray. Why are you
talking like that? Why are you talking like it because this is
my voice This is my one. No, it's not. I heard you talking a
minute ago. I know you don't talk like that. Neither do
you because nobody actually talks I guess you choose to talk
like this and today I chose to talk like this pretty fucking
annoying. Isn't
it so rude man to stop doing that can help us my voice.
No, it's not. It's an affectation that annoying
teenagers and rich people used to sound like they don't give a
shit. So if you work in a coffee shop, so I know you're not rich
when you don't look like a teenager unless you're Eunice
Kennedy Shriver
just because I talk like this they don't give a shit. And what
exactly was was not gonna shut about
that's an excellent question to ask yourself in your actual
voice. Excuse me. Some of us would like to order your total
death man there There you go. Good. You're talking wow.
Oh girl
so these are issues that need to be addressed more
and the we do need to remind everyone the original vocal fry
queen is the Berkeley Hummer.
Yeah. Exactly. Exactly.
Exactly. I'm gonna see if I must have a clear we go we'll
Abramson. Yeah,
that was funny says people. Rich people. Rich people don't give a
shit. They don't give a shit is actually I never thought about
but that is Jill Abramson this kind of attitude about stuff.
Here. She is the original Berkeley Hummer clip from years
ago
chief among many other things. She joined the times from the
Wall Street Journal, and this clip is from 2011 1997 Jill
Abramson. Congrats. Relations and welcome.
Thank you so much, Jim.
First, just on on the personal level, what does it mean to you
to become the executive editor of the New York Times?
It means the world to me. I grew up here in Manhattan and the New
York Times was workshopped in my family and what the time said
was true was the true.
She's gotten much worse in the in recent years. This is not
even you right? I think she has gotten worse.
I don't know. I wonder if we have Jill Abramson. We must have
a more recent one. You see Jill Abramson and Clarence Thomas,
you write that this may be in your view, an impeachable
offense, what would make these events, impeachable offenses?
Well, perjury isn't impeach impeachable offense. There's no
statute of limitations. And so I think that the evidence,
yeah, all I recall is we went through this cycle, and it is
now seven, eight years ago. And a certain point it was a
misogynist. even talk about it. Yeah, it's not it's not
appropriate, apparently.
Obviously. I read I read The New York Times, like all day long.
That's the one hold on. That's that is the money shot.
Obviously. I read. I read The New York Times, like all day
long, mainly on my iPad app.
All day long.
And she got kicked out of there. She got kicked out of
everywhere. Where she working now, isn't she? Is she working
with the correspondent yet? That's where I expected to show
up next. I have no idea. That fine Dutch experiment? Yes.
Dutch thing? Yeah,
I like those guys. I supported the Dutch version years ago when
they first started. They did it. Apparently they raised two and a
half million dollars. Good for them. Yeah, but the thing is Jay
Rosen, that's your spokes haul. Ah, yeah, that's, that's a big
mistake. Sorry, Jay. But now, let's see I have a I do want to
talk about the Green New Deal is there was a lot going on. I see
you have a clip. But if you don't mind, I'll just grab the
cop 24.
Clip. meeting summary.
Yeah, but I got some specific backgrounds I have a
presentation to make.
Well, let's do the climate summary then because this is a
district PBS is very short. It's only 28. They wrap up the whole
thing. Okay, as though it was like not a big deal.
Negotiators reached an agreement at the United Nations climate
talks in Poland today, after more than two weeks of meetings.
The talks were scheduled to end Friday. One sticking point was
the rule for monitoring, purchasing and selling carbon
credits to reduce carbon emissions. Brazil raised
concerns over the cost of buying permits from a central registry
and the process of selling those permits. A rulebook for the 200
nations in the Paris accord was released for approval. And the
countries will meet again next fall in New York.
Right? So this is yeah, hey, if carbons bad is bad, how can you
sell credits to go back and forth and burn it anyway? Or
release it? Yeah,
okay. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna answer questions I have no
answers to but I can only report on what's going on. And I
realized I got it actually came from an email from Cory
millennial. Says, Adam, John, born in 1988, and Wisconsin.
Until listening to your show, I knew I knew global warming was a
fact. Everyone I talked with accepted it as truth. Your
podcast was the only voice that even brought it up as a
question. After doing my own research. I agree with your
point of view. Thank you from Cory PS, no Adderall, and I
listened to 1.5 speed. Chase. Yeah. The kids like that. Here's
what I realized. When when the official climate gate started
and my goodness we have we have jingles going back that are old
and some of the people that listen to the show, here it is
to the gate to the gate. This was the start of the
falsification of documents. It was all this fuzzy stuff the the
people who were in charge of the IPCC had deals on the outside it
was a complete mess. And we witnessed all of this most kids
today you know, they were too young to to have ever witnessed
anything that's going on. But when you think about it, we have
been through so you and I just because of age have been through
so many of these horrible, horrible things that are going
to happen to us. And they've turned out to be not so true.
Yes. And what a Secret Agent Paul sent me an end of show
clip, which is a song but I just wanted to play it now. It's not
super long. I want to play now because he he can't Then it goes
through all of these things, a number of them and as I was
listening to it, I came up with more that were height that was
supposed to be horrible. We're all going to die if we don't do
something immediately. And then of course, it didn't happen. And
he put this to a very traditional track.
Can anyone he remember the hole in the ozone layer? Can you tell
me where it's gone? I can't recall. But I know we were all
gone. And we must have done something wrong. Does anyone
know? What happened to the gasoline show? When the palm
smoothed over the last job by 1990. But now there's an ample
supply. Does anyone know remembers a y2k bug? And 15 was
gonna try every screen. But then, nothing happened. But
someone made a lot of stuff. Yes.
He was gonna be the next Ice Age. But somehow we turn that
page. We're gonna free now itself by 12 degrees.
There's just enough, just a few examples of these enormously
dangerous things to our society. We're all going to die from I
just wanted to mention the y2k bug. I had cash in the freezer,
I had a bathtub full of water.
And we like cashed in on that. And myself, because I had a
special speech prepared. That was about what a phony baloney
deal it was because it never made any sense. And in the end,
I should probably revisit a speech because it was funny it
was showed that why two kids going to college tornado,
emotions are going to rise because of y2k.
So it's important for the younger generation to understand
that this is not new, except now your parents are all in on it.
And they're stupid morons. They're not really thinking
about how they're traumatizing you how your teachers, your
community, everyone around you, is traumatizing you by saying
we're all going to die from climate change. And well, yeah,
we can't really do anything about it overnight, or you
should do something quick. And, you know, all the messaging that
these kids are receiving is making them extremely ill. I
agree. And and so again, our stance on this is not just we're
not just like some assholes who don't believe in science and
grew up, you know, like, Oh, this is crap, Matt. No, we've
been through it was global cooling, we were all going to
die. Same people by the way, who now say global warming, then we
had the Population Bomb, the population explosion. Too many
people we're all gonna die. Everyone's gonna be dead by the
year 2000.
By the time you're as old as we are, and I hope you reach that
fine old age like a fine wine, you will too will go well, this
is a lot of crap that we that we got all worked up about. And the
CBC the current. This is the Canon avian Broadcasting
Corporation did a special Dan on this special about climate
change. They had a guest. The guest is Margaret Klein,
Solomon. And she of course is involved in climate change. But
she's not a climatologist. Oh, she's a clinical psychologist of
the climate mobilization organization. So they're now
doing half hour specials with psychologists about, forget
about anything that's true or not in science, how fast is
going to happen. Just listen to the setup and then we'll get
into a couple of clips.
My name is Debra hafod. I'm the Executive Director of the
adaptation to climate change team at Simon Fraser University
in Vancouver. A low carbon resilient future is a beautiful
one a lot less noisy, polluting cars, filling up most of our
urban downtown areas, more parks, more areas for kids to
play more places for people to grow food, more shared spaces,
more places where people can come together and enjoy their
environment. What a hereditary interest to a presentation from
a woman who works with small children recently and so she
asked them to draw she says, if we carry on know what how we're
living in the world, what do you think the future looks like? And
she said that without fail, they draw a world which everything's
on fire, and everything is dead and everyone is
sick. Oh, God,
so she's already she's, she can't She's emotional just from
hearing the damage that has already done and I believe this
to be true. Damage to the kids. Yes, the children are thinking
that everything will be on fire and everybody's dead. Now, this
this, this is a great piece. And one of our producers sent it to
me if you like highlight is that you will not believe what's
going on here. And he's right. So I chopped this up, couple
more. And they're all about a minute each clip just four more
clips. This is now we get to Margaret crying Solomon Klein,
Solomon. And she has of course solutions. It's all not just
dire as long as we do it within the next 12 years. Otherwise,
you know, the kids will still be drawing those pictures of fire
and everyone will be dead.
We are calling for a 10 year crash transition to zero
emissions plus drawdown and attempt to achieve full spectrum
sustainability across across issues. That remember
She's a psychologist, okay. She's not the climatologist not
a weather scientist. She's a psychologist. But she knows what
the core idea being.
This is not a problem. We are too late in the game for
gradualism, right to incrementally reduce emissions
or for individualism, right? The idea that I take care of my
missions, you take care of your missions, and so forth. What we
envision is a rapid transition of our entire economy and
society with all hands on deck, as most recently happened in our
history during World War Two. So for example, some of the
policies that would come from a world war two scale climate
mobilization would be the immediate ban of all new fossil
fuel infrastructure, and a 10 year timeline for retiring the
fossil fuel infrastructure that we do have coupled because we
want to keep the lights on with a massive scale up of renewable
energy. So large government investment, creating millions of
jobs to both reduce demand through things like winterizing
homes.
We're all going to burn but the kids can winterize your home. No
worries,
reduce demand through things like winterizing homes, and just
transform our energy system to renewable we all know, I mean,
we also have policies and agriculture, transportation, and
industry that we promote but that's the that's the basic
scope. All right, delusional.
However, I you know, this is not delusional. It's aversive. Yes,
this system is a weird this the entire system of Western
civilization at this moment is petroleum based. This is a
subversive moment to bring down to Western cultures. To replace
it with this is the same as the anti capitalist people. Oh,
capitalism is bad. We need to replace it with what where are
these jobs? What jobs? winterizing jobs nobody needs
people do that themselves they want to they can put some gun
night you know in the house so transparently subversive, it's
It's beyond my comprehension is how it was allowed to continue
like
this. Well, it continues for at least two more clips.
I have three by the way. Yeah. And I hope they're toppers
this so now she's comparing it to World War Two, we need to we
needed to crash transition, what she means by that. And that
whole piece is filled with you know, did your parents buy war
bonds yet? You know, because everyone was all all in on. You
know, we've got to support the war everybody and she thinks
that we can do exactly the same.
Well, a great example is the victory gardens. So during World
War Two 40% of American vegetables were grown at home in
the front and backyard. By the people that ate them.
Do you can you recall this?
I know about the Victory Gardens. I don't believe that
statistic to be accurate. You can
eat it for maybe a month but you got to have a pretty big garden.
Well, you have to do a lot of canning Canning was a popular
Yes. You do a lot of canning. But you know, this this farms
out there in the middle of the Midwest and elsewhere that
normally grow vegetables, stop growing vegetables.
What they want is they want us to eat that. That laboratory
meat
and bugs.
Oh All right, we can farm our lawns and have community farms
where which increases, you know, local food security. And also,
you know, you don't have emissions from transportation.
But more generally programs like transitioning industry, right.
So the United States banned the production of new consumer
automobiles, great idea. They said, We need all of that
automobile factory capacity to create our tanks and planes and
machine guns. And so no more No more consumer car production,
period, sorry. It's a fundamentally different
mentality. When you get into the mode of we face an existential
threat, everything is on the line. And, you know, said the
government is going to do everything that it can, the
government should spend without limit to save as much life as
possible.
Again, she's not an economist, she she's not a science
climatologist. She's a psychologist. And I'm not so
sure these are great ideas that she has. But it turns out in the
psychology field, she does have a little bit to say about this
idea of just in just just a crash transition to immediately
stopping using fossil fuels stopped driving everything
electric, because back in the day in World War Two, it
actually people kind of liked it. The people who
lived through World War Two On the homefront often looked back
at it as some of the best years of their lives. Because they
felt productively and meaningfully employed in a cause
that was greater than them. And they felt connected to their
neighbors and to their community and to their country, and to
their cause. And the hopefulness, the hopefulness,
yes, we need that. But it but it has to be based on reality and
on telling the truth. And there is no hope for a smooth
transition to zero emissions for over over decades, that kind of
doesn't bother anyone. Maybe we could have done that if we had
started it in the 70s. But we did, emissions have gone up. And
we we need a crash transition to protect ourselves. And even if
we do it, even if we execute the most austere and intense
transition to zero emissions, we still might not win. You don't
know if you're going to win a war before you go into it. It's
possible that the positive feedback loops that we've
already triggered will overwhelm even our absolute best efforts
to get to zero emissions. But we're not even trying now. See,
this
is the message that's being sent to kids by psychologists who
should know better but doesn't matter. Because the best thing
you can do is record those kids get their thoughts on climate
change, get their thoughts on the imminent death they face
because their parents and the adults and orange MAN bad Orange
Man bad won't do anything about it in Washington DC. Let's
traumatize them a little more and ask them how they feel. With
some cool piano music just to accentuate the vibe.
My name is Elizabeth Curran. I'm 10 years old and I live in
Winnipeg. Being a young person. What I find most concerning
about climate change is that like animals can lose their
homes like polar bears if the ice melts. My name is Arthur. I
am a year nine years old. I live alway bit scary because I live
near the ocean. And there's a glacier that also will make the
water go close to the house.
My name is Ben museo. I am 15 and I live in Montreal, Quebec.
I think that it's time for the governments to do big things.
But just because just because the government are doing big
things doesn't mean that people should stop doing small things
that everyone should just you know, without necessarily
sacrificing everything yet. Just do what they can to reduce the
footprint and help us not be doomed. My name is meow just
out. I'm 12 years old and I live in Winnipeg.
The thing that scares me the most of a climate change is
literally everything. It's terrifying. It's it's kind of
been pushed to the side. And it's just not knowing anything
about it is kind of what scares me about it. And just knowing
that it's gonna kill us. If we don't do anything which we're
not doing anything. That's the scary part to me.
My name is Patrick. I'm 10 years old, and I was born in China.
But now I live in Vancouver spy. Young children will experience
far worse than the people living right now. Also scares me that
floods, hurricanes and other natural disasters are way more
likely than in the past five years. I think grownups should
think that we actually shouldn't make an impact and not just sit
back and let it happen.
That's right, kids. Your parents aren't doing anything because
the orange MAN isn't doing anything and you are all going
to die.
embellishment Child
child abuse, child abuse and add to that, yo your school can be
shot up at any minute throw in a couple of antidepressants. You
got a great party Colin on is going to be fantastic watch
these kids do fantastically well in society.
Yeah, well, this interesting little thing I was noticing
there was somebody discussing the homelessness and oh, yes,
it really works in a race racism. It all stems from
climate change. You know this, don't you? Anyway, the cop 24
They finally came to an agreement this the new president
of this thing, by the way is some douchebag. He's let me see
what his name is. Replace the old douche. Yeah, yeah, he's a
young douchebag Oh my gosh. cuccia. He is the secretary of
state government plan and potentiality for cop 24
presidency, a train whatever that means. A trained physicist,
engineer, economist, specialist and international negotiations
expert in the field of energy and the author of the government
program for the development of electro mobility in Poland. And
he's, he's it's almost like he's one of these.com kind of guys.
When they because they had the big Deus and you know, there's
1000 People in the auditorium and, and they they went really
late Saturday night and and they got up early this morning and
they finally came to an agreement and he jumps over the
Deus Tada. You've got to see this video. Like he's like he's
Spider Man. Yes, we have a deal. Kind of It is so decided.
The conference President did his best to whip up enthusiasm from
delegates. Been a lukewarm reception from observers to the
cop 24 climate change deal agreed on Saturday by some 200
nations in Quetta, Bitsy, Poland, Miko Karthika
acknowledged more needs to be done,
this deal hangs in fragile balance.
We will all have to give in order to gain we will all have
to be courageous to look into the future and make yet another
step for the sake of humanity.
A 156 Page Rule Book fleshes out details on how to implement the
2015 Paris Agreement. I'm very, very happy German environmental
minister. This is the second time that the world says yes to
the Paris Climate Agreement. We said what our goals were. And
here we agreed on the rules for getting there. The whole world.
That's an enormous achievement. The target is to limit global
warming well below two degrees centigrade. The rule book covers
issues such as how countries should establish and monitor
emission reduction plans. But it's less clear on how a pledge
of 90 billion euros to poorer countries will be financed.
So the right damage Francois the crazy American men orange men
bed he pulled out of the agreement. Where do we get a 90
billion from now? Oh, NPR did a actually I have to say did a
very well. Although the millennial was fantastic. The
minute it gets into science, she starts saying write a lot. But
she did explain the issues. And it's not just who's going to pay
for it turns out they don't even know how to measure this stuff.
Well, this meeting is all about putting the Paris Agreement that
was the agreement back in 2015 into action. So every country
made a promise back then to reduce greenhouse gases a
certain amount. But every promise is different. So it's
really hard to come up with a set of rules that everyone we're
talking about almost 200 countries thinks is fair for
tracking our collective progress.
What seems to be the principal sticking point right now.
Well, there are a couple of things on a really basic this
really is basic countries still haven't agreed on how they are
going to track their carbon emissions and how much
information they're going to disclose to each other about
their economies, which is part of that.
Just right there, and they haven't even agreed on how to
track it. Don't you stick a tube in the air? And it's like, well,
350 parts per million, we're all gonna die is not how it's done.
I mean, this, if anything we've been taught and convinced, by by
total repetition, that this is exactly that they can measure
exactly what's happening. Yet, I
don't think that's what they're talking about, about the ambient
air or co2, a constituency in terms of how much there is,
then what are they talking about? How
much is being pumped in to the system? From factories?
Well, they say they can't agree on how to measures they say they
haven't agreed on how to measure it. That's, that's what they're
saying.
Yeah, I think they don't know how to measure the they know how
much is in the air, but they don't know how to measure what's
going into the air. I think that's what they're referring
to. Okay, countries. So Right. I mean, you can measure, I can
just get a little device or turn it on a stick it outside, you
can measure the co2 in the air that hard. No, you're talking
about something else. So Kevin agreed
on how they are going to track their carbon emissions, and how
much information they're going to disclose to each other about
their economies are just part of that. And some countries are
more private than others about their economies. So for example,
China, China is notoriously private, the US actually is to,
we don't really love to give extra information to other
countries in the world about how we operate. So on the flip side,
poor countries are worried. They don't know how they're going to
pay for the kind of in depth classes that it takes to track
emissions. They want richer countries to help them with
that. And also to help them with paying for all sorts of things
that come along with climate change, whether it be loss and
damage or other stuff,
in the past that divide between more developed countries and
less developed countries on the planet has has been pronounced
to the point where there were different rules, depending on if
a country was richer or poor. Is that still the case?
Well, no, that did change with the Paris agreement. And that's
a good thing. So every country regardless of how much the
country has, in its GDP, every country had to make a promise
that it thought it could achieve to reduce its greenhouse gas
emissions. But there's still a lot of tension between richer
countries and poorer countries. So for example, countries in
Southeast Asia in the Pacific and parts of Africa, they're
suffering enormous losses already because of climate
change. Right? So catastrophic flooding, we see some of these
things in the US too.
This is where she goes off the rails because now she's now
she's gonna have to defend the science, right? And that's all
she can do is she makes a statement it says, right,
because you know, it's right, right? That's what subliminally
going on in her head. It's got to be right, right. And
Pacific and parts of Africa. They're suffering enormous
losses already because of climate change. Right. So
catastrophic flooding. We see some of these things in the US
too, but it's much more pronounced in other parts of the
world islands disappearing altogether. It's
just it's just gone. I don't know. Islands are disappearing.
Right, US Cuba. Right. Right.
In other parts of the world islands disappearing altogether.
This is NPR I want to remind you, right, drought,
famine, but those countries actually aren't the countries
that have emitted the most greenhouse gases, right. Like,
historically, the industrial revolution started spouting
carbon dioxide into the atmosphere in the 1800s. So we
and that being the US, the EU, major industrialized nations who
have been industrialized for a long time, are responsible for
most emissions. And yet other countries are right now paying
some of the price. And so the question is what kind of I'll
use the term reparations but we're talking about payments for
that loss and
why I think you can kill this anytime she's just rambling. I
just
ended up that I put
left it in here for a reason. In the past, those have been on the
table. But as of right now, and we're going into overtime here,
there is nothing specific so far coming out of this meeting. So
one of the big questions in the next who knows it could be a
couple hours it could be a whole nother day is what type of
payment might we be able to get coming from richer countries and
going to poorer countries for that sort of thing.
So the whole point for our younger listeners from take it
from two old guys who have been around the block on a couple of
these, this is not right. And when you hear all these
douchebags sitting around in Poland, and all they can talk
about is who's going to pay
who who's gonna gouge the Americans
dammit, they left. That's what's going on here. This is not about
your environment. This is a this is a money grab. And it's no
different than that. How many billions was the y2k Scare?
Outrageous. Didn't you help the doc Tom collapse from the late
90s. And when the right to K scare came along, it's sunk the
economy. That's all bad. It was exactly. Exactly. The economy
went into a tailspin, in large part because of y2k, but also in
combination with the.com collapse. And then it was
exacerbated by the 911 thing. And then we were in now we went
go into a decade of no growth. Yeah, and that's what would
happen with this, this would this would sink the world
economy and it would just be taking money from us and giving
it to some people that are going to don't even use it. They give
it to their leaders, these these corrupt leaders, and then they
become rich guys living in Gosh, thought Switzerland.
As you know, as I was reading through with all these
documents, and I'm trying to get a copy of the rule book so we
can understand what rules will have to be implemented. I sent
the team acid is so odd with the Netherlands, which is about 25%
below sea level, which is reclaimed land. I don't hear the
Netherlands freaking out too much about all the islands are
disappearing, how can we survive Amsterdam will be on will be
underwater, you'd never hear them talk about that. And so I
did one Bing search. And the first thing that popped up is
that the UN climate panel had to admit they had exaggerated the
Dutch sea level. They said in the in one of their early
reports 2007 I think they said 50% of the Netherlands is below
sea level, it could be 55. They're all going to drown, and
the Dutch went, Hey, stop that. We know how to manage our water.
But this is never a conversation in the Dutch. In the Dutch media
when it comes to climate change, oh, yeah, we're all gonna die
the conversation, they never talked about the sea level,
which should just drown everybody. So these are all the
little things you got to pay attention to? Well,
the thing that's, I think what you missed was the more
interesting part of this where they've decided, I think all the
points you made are valid. And I think it's led to the next step.
Which is next step because they can't get enough traction. Yeah,
we get every kid just
so you know, they say that they're in the phase they're in
now, reading the documents. They're now in the political
phase. They say that for some reason. Now, now the
politicians. That's what they're calling. This is cop 24. Moving
into cop 25. I think that's the political phase.
I think that's next year in New York, by the way could be so
yes, your point. Well, the thing coming up now is the extinction
rebellion, which just started in the UK, catching on, and they
had a bunch of these people at the cop 20 vote, whatever it
was, with the course Amy is pushing this on democracy. Now.
Let's listen to what this is all about. This is extinction
rebellion. One
we turn now to look at a UK based movement taking extreme
action to fight the climate crisis. It's called extinction
rebellion. Its members have been super gluing themselves to
government buildings, shutting down roads, taking to the
streets to sound the alarm about the impending catastrophe of
global warming extinction rebellion, marched here and cut
a visa last Saturday to protest UN climate talks. In November
extinction rebellion protesters shut down London bridges
blockaded the UK Department for business and energy and
attempted to interrupt Brexit negotiations.
Well there you go. When you traumatize kids enough this is
what you they start super gluing themselves to buildings. That's
what happened.
That's a super gluing thing was a great idea that there was I
had one clip where there was a bunch of people like you had
with one after the other after the other complaining but I
decided to just isolate this one guy who was super glued to
offense and he is screaming his his objections and what it's all
about and this guy I'm guessing is around. He's in his early 20s
He's bearded I guess to prevent facial recognition screaming out
what the problems are and why these peep these cops and the
nation's and everybody is not paying attention because we're
all gonna die. And this is the worst case scenario we're all
gonna die play this isoh
complacent in the mass murder of all life on this Friday. Wow,
all life
all life. All life on this planet, according to the
everybody in this group is is under attack. There's not going
to be a living thing.
Well, there's all a lot of stories. I didn't even hear what
you're talking about that was Horowitz about less bugs. And he
was like I was driving across the country and I remember tons
of bugs, less bugs. And I'm like,
Well, there's a couple I want to talk about. It just got one last
tip. But I want to mention the less bugs I was having thoughts
about the less bugs. Couple of things about less bugs. In
California when I was a kid, we used to draw you no matter where
you draw, especially if you went from California or from San
Francisco to Los Angeles, and back and forth, you'd get a lot
of bugs hit the car, and it's the time he got to LA or back,
the car would be covered with bugs that you ran into Sure. I
was thinking about this because there are less bugs that you hit
the car. But like when I drive my Lexus, for example, that se
foreign and most cars, and I would ask people to do this
experiment, just stay by the side of the road and listen to
cars as they go by a number of cars that will go by unless he
got noisy injuries. But let's say that they don't. You hear
nothing. He's just and then there's a couple of cars that go
by you hear, you can hear the car.
You're going to tell me because the bugs aren't hearing the cars
anymore.
I don't understand. The point is, is that the aerodynamics of
today's cars lift the bugs up in over the car's windshield, their
bug friendly, because it's cutting through it because all
these cars are aerodynamic. If you've ever been in one of these
electric cars, just things are so aerodynamic, it's they're
super silent when they go by and that's the point I'm making
about the silence is that they in the olden days in 1955,
Plymouth had no aerodynamics, he was just plowing through right
against the atmosphere, and the bugs would
wait a minute, they had those fins on the back that must have
help for something.
It's helped you to go in a straight line. So the bugs would
hit you more. That's what I think that's all the reason I
drive around if I get going fast. I see bugs going right up
and over the car.
I don't know. Okay, so there's no bug pocalypse. I'm so
disappointed is just the aerodynamics.
I think we also do use more bugs killer. I think that has a lot.
I think people get back to the extinction rebellion part to
remembering now they have one of the founders or one of the early
guys glued these people are involved. They have logos
or they've got a beautiful website extinction rebellion.
And it's a it's a part of the rising up group and they've got
donations going. Sunrise movements part of this. I don't
see them yet, but it wouldn't surprise me. Well, they
mentioned that oh, the thing is, these guys have decided to take
it to the next level. All right, it's not that they were going to
have the few islands disappear. All life on earth will cease to
exist
a movement taking radical action to combat the climate crisis it
started in the United Kingdom just six months ago is now
spread to at least 35 countries. Extinction rebellion is
demanding governments commit to legally binding measures to
slash consumption reduced carbon emissions to net zero by 2025.
We're joined right now by extinction, rebellion activists,
Lee and Gary Baulch. He just participated in the action here
at the UN Climate Summit not far from the Democracy Now set. It's
great to have you with us Liam, you know, even using words like
global warming or climate change, people feel does not
convey the urgency of this issue. No have decided to use
the term extinction. Extinction. Rebellion is your group talking
about what you're doing.
So we've been talking people about the real science that
we're seeing now not in an alarmist way but in a realistic
way we are now facing what could be the next mass extinction
we're already grieving over the lives lost both human and
otherwise to climate change. And we're seeing and talking to
people about the fact that we might now be facing human
extinction
This is what happens this is what you get. Oh Brother You got
me with that I need to give you go back to Mother cart wall for
this I need to give you a clip of the day for that clip. So
kids, if I can call your kids my stance I think it's John stance
as well that there is if it's nothing wrong with switching to
some other forms of energy we recommend you look into nuclear
energy and please have a good look at Chernobyl look at
Fukushima look at Three Mile Island. Those are kind of the
the big popular ones and and see if the damage that was done and
the risk to human life versus the BP oil spill in the Gulf the
Exxon Valdez really do some research and see which one you'd
be better with which one is less dangerous. And then go and look
at the actual benefits of wind and solar. There's something to
be said for hydro electric but nuclear is a very good way to go
and new nuclear reactors great
but they condemn hide Euro electric two if you haven't
noticed, it's gonna ruin damming up a natural river and the
salmon can't guess
because they don't want you to think about it. They don't want
you to have nuclear they want you to buy into what they call
the new climate economy. That's the idea. You'll be making solar
panels you know, you'll probably be dusting off solar panels that
will be your good climate job. So this is a you're being
hoodwinked.
Yeah, the good climate job yet. I think you nailed it. That
would be the good climate job a solar panel cleaner. Yes.
And please, politicians, people in positions of media prowess.
stop abusing children for this stop. That's not going to
happen. Yeah, but I can say it as much as I want stop abusing
your children for this is disgusting. They can't they're
no wonder pharmaceuticals are off the hook. No wonder no
wonder everyone's on antidepressants. Look at what
you're doing to him. And I'm sorry, I just don't see it. So
there you go. climate denier number one. Hello, climate
denier number two in the morning to you. The man who put the Sea
and Sea cop 24 JOHN CENA moreq
Well, first of all, I'm not a climate denier. I believe there
is such a thing as a climate. And I think it changes
naturally.
I think we're both on the same train there.
So but I will say in the morning to you Mr. Adam curry. In the
morning all ships at sea boots on the ground feet in the air or
subs in the water and all the days and nights out there

helpful. That's no agenda stream.com We also would like to
say in the morning to insane Mo who brought us the artwork for
episode 1094 The title of that show was justice for Hillary and
this was something we don't typically do it was it was a
mash up it was a an embellishment of a Banksy piece
of artwork do
it if it's done if it's we think it's legal.
Oh, it's totally legal. I think it was very well done
by taking the density when they were in the yellow vest,
yellow vests but then also adding crackpot offer a damn the
curry and zebras killed John said Divac I mean, it was funny.
It was a beautiful piece. Everyone liked it. And screw
Banksy. Banksy grew that guy.
I want to see Banksy in court.
I want to see him immediately. So thank you very much.
He would banks he would approve. I'm absolutely convinced.
And thank you very much insane Mo and thanks to all of the
artists a lot of good art that's being put in we certainly want
to encourage everyone to keep doing that. No agenda art
generator.com We use it for lots of other things, including great
merch, great merch, you can find at the no agenda shop.com

So we have a few people to thanks for being executives and
Associate Executive producers for show a 1095. Okay, starting
with the Sir Joseph Barron of all of Southern California, who
came in with an Insta vibe count Whoa. Donation of $1,000 VI
counselor in it's the new Baron. Now counts with a new Baron. So
he this is Lieutenant Colonel vanners Vandersteen. De
Vandersteen is Southern California who is a retired
Marine Marine. Yes, he's our marine. And he gives quarterly
he is the marine there has not been a Navy officer to compare
to our marine guy insofar as supporting the show, if you
haven't noticed. Interesting. Yeah, so the Marines are winning
this this battle between the the larger serves as the Navy, you
think there'd be more people we get the guy the sub in the water
guy, but that's about it. Yeah, maybe I'm wrong.
Most of the most of the sub guys are cheap, which probably be
true and it's well known in the armed forces. The sub guys is
all cheap.
He says a very nice handwritten note. And of course then he does
it on a4 paper, which van is also some sort of a weird
European papers kind of creepy actually. Please find attached
or third and fourth quarter he wrote this in longhand. And he
has, I think he's got it's pretty until he tried to read
it. Right. Get contributions for 2018. Okay. Yeah, he does with
quarterly. I miss my third quarter a submission because I
was attending my brother, brothers fifth wedding. Her
first God in South Dakota, South Dakota. He went to South Dakota.
My brother is a good man but I he seems to always be looking
for the next ex ex wife van something here I can't read it.
I hit him in the
living in his van is that when he's living in his van is that
what he said?
No it's Van Van is for their name. I hit him in the mouth a
few times but I'm not sure he took it is if he is listening
I'll know soon enough I would die whenever he said we should
he was a douchebag call it but he didn't say it so I'm not
going to do it. I would like to issue a challenge to the
listeners who receive value from the show, but who do not donate
time to man up, ship in support the show and ensure John and
Adam can continue to live in the lifestyle to which they have
become accustomed. Such as it is such as it is indeed. Yes it is.
Yeah. I believe this donation allows me to step up on the
peerage ladder to VI count Nice. Please dubbed me Sir Joseph vi
count of all southern California if that title is not already
spoken for. And it's not that I know. I'm the head of the
peerage committee. Thank you both for continuing to produce

IDM. John, with regard to the newsletter, it looks like Gmail
is moving into the promotions automatic filter. I have moved
it out many times, but they still seem to do it
occasionally. This happened with the most recent newsletter. When
I saw your second email I was I was looking and sure enough it
was in promotions. I also agree with your assessment that recent
shows have been among the best. Adam, I would like to ask a
favor of you. I will be heading to the Netherlands for work and
we will be staying in Veen and dollar Veenendaal the entire
month of January my smokin hot wife will be there with me for a

out of there as soon as you can. There's really nothing going on
there. And you're not really near anything good or is it from
Amsterdam? Well, nothing's really far from Amsterdam
depending on what time to travel you but you need to go to
Amsterdam. Clearly what I would do is if you're on the tweeters
or maybe your smokin hot wife, tweet me remind me a vein and
doll and see if we can get some some Dutch producers to hook you
up I'm sure we have people who live near there they might be
able to show you a good time but otherwise get a car yeah,

mean as long as you're not driving during rush hours

Sir Jonathan of the double bladed paddle $300.11 centavos.
Thanks for the show. And J n k 70. Threes que es zero ih t 70.
threes are Jonathan into the double pay bladed paddle. Yes,
that many threes. keto five Alpha. Charlie, Charlie. Yeah,
this is a good one now. And it's actually it's not really good
because Chris Wilson Center and I think that he falls under the
Australian rules, right? Australian and Scandinavian
rules. Yes. You want to reiterate those?
Yeah, if you're this is because of the recent when we had this
the economic downturn in 2007 and eight, the Canadian money
and the Australian money became worth more. And it stayed that
way for quite some time into the show's era. And then started to
go a normal way which has become worthless. I mean, Canadians 75
That's the normal way for them is that what you're insinuating?
is just
the normal way. It just happens. Rarely are they at parity with
the US dollar and so they fallen behind and we gave the offer
out? Look it's $1 to you yeah, it's a little less for to us but
it's still $1 to you, you should get least credit for the dollar
if you donate an Australian dollar or Canadian dollars so
that's it's $1 so if you donate 300 Canadian dollars you get
$300 in
credit towards really just we just we just have pity on them.
I don't know if it's pity it's just like
they got destroyed they got destroyed.
And they'd be so behind I felt bad about it. I have a place of
near Canadian border and you go to Canada's great shopping right
or as
well with your with your American money shirt. Is this
fantastic. American money. It's
a Chris anything like a script?
Chris Wilson in Eastlakes New South Wales $231.91 just
probably 300 Yeah, he says peace of mind my executive producer.
It's actually 333 30 Yeah, 3333 33
only are you telling me 333 33 comes to 231? Yeah. No brother
says
no, it's the way it is.
He says with the current exchange rate, you are more than
entitled to call them shrimp. Rosie, could you please de
douche my beard. Interesting. As long as the hair dead, kind of
hunky guy was a douchebag beard.
You know, he looks a little bit like our very own Chris Wilson,
to be honest in Australia. Looks like this. Yeah, even a little
rougher though. I'm shocked shocked to find that secret
douche bag
and I reneged on that. Because I seen his picture since it was
more of a Taliban beard.
Yes. So it's not a douchebag beard that's different.
It's not easy supporting the Sydney Inner West Safe Space
hippie look at my age, you tend to slide past the styling of
Dave Grohl and and rapidly descend into Ted Kaczynski
homeless permit territory. In fact, this was brought to my
attention the other day when I went out to some coffee. You
see, I had been doing renovations at home some
plastering. In fact, I figured that I get a decent coffee at
one of those hole in the wall coffee houses from a boss
barista barista with a douchebag beard. So I wandered down,
purchased and promptly consumed my first cup. It was really
really good as sensational even and I took a moment to myself
standing there on the street, with my empty cup staring at the
cup quietly contemplating whether or not I should go for
that glorious but occasionally treacherous. Second hit of
caffeine, when I was rudely woke from my meditation by some
generous soul throwing a $2 coin into my empty cup. Now I don't
know if it was the wild hair or the douchebag beard, or the fact
that I was covered in plaster and Bill, building dirt along as
me standing on the street holding an empty cup. Someone
suggested it may have been the shopping trolley
of we need a picture of this man Come on, but with
the grid Easy real estate prices around the interwebs you've got
to take advantage of what you can to make those mortgage
payments so if you would please DT douche my beard that would be

recently for we did having recently finished working on a
US Drug commercial shot in Sydney. I finally have funds to

Election says the 2016 election, when I asked the question at a
party, why do we really go to Iraq and that was directed to
the no agenda show by douchebag. Jeremy row, never looked back,
commuting four hours a day to Sydney. With my many days off, I
often get to listen to three old episodes a day. The no agenda
show has no equal has no equal. And I hope you do not
underestimate the importance of the work you to do. I encourage
all no agenda listeners to think about throwing a few bucks
toward the show. We pay money for crap every day. And this
show is worth keeping on the air. Please may be united and
the Cantrell the old school lefty of Terrigal beach and J N.
K.
Thank you, Andy. I look forward to your knighting ceremony at

$200 sorry for the lack of donations. I hope this measly
$200 helps fund the show that I will be downloading and
listening to on our long flight to Sweden this Monday. I've been
in contact with her and I am expecting a report. Oh, I will
do my best to get pictures of the no go zones.
You're sending her into the no go zones of Stockholm. Really?
Yeah.
Ah, okay. You can't be hurt you're Swedish.
I don't want to leave my says I'll do my best to go the nose

happy holiday or dare I said a Mary Christ miss. Or God you'll
from Sweden Skoll. Yes, you will. Yes. Yeah, God

die. Yes, exactly. Well, thank you, Jennifer. And please be
very careful.
Before you know it was no go zones, man. Although I was told
they don't exist.
Well, I was told they don't exist. But I was also say they
do exist. But my take on it is that there you go there. But if
you're a cop, or you're someone with a camera out, you're taking
movies, there are some they'll go over and beat you up. Yeah.
Well, all I know is that when I was walking with my daughter in
Rotterdam, Rotterdam, with her girlfriend, they live together.
And they were we're all walking down the sidewalk, hand in hand.
And then we crossed one street and they lick over each other's
hands and just walk in next to each other and said, Yeah, this
is where we don't hold hands. This is kind of like a no go
zone for us here. in Rotterdam, the Netherlands? Yeah.
You brought it on yourself?
I did. Okay, I take full responsibility. I'm sorry about
all that. No. All right. That's it right? That's our execs and
Associate Executive Producer. So

Anywhere that credits are recognized. You will get places

LinkedIn does seem to work and will be thanking more people $50
And above and our second segment, please remember that we
do have another show coming up on Thursday, perhaps with a
report from Thailand but certainly with more media and
news deconstruction, remember us at Ball rack.org Jingle slash N
A and now that you know what a jingle is, you can take that
knowledge go out there and propagate. Our formula
is this. We go out. We get people in the mouth
so what's this report from Thailand?
On the Miss Universe competition?
Oh, is that where it is? Yes, it's
in Bangkok. I call
I call my buddy Michelle. Yeah, he's over there. And he goes, he
wasn't one of these British guys that goes to Bangkok all the
time. Fishy, very fishy. A lot of British guys do this. And I
call up said, Hey, are you there? You're gonna be at the
east. What are you talking about? I just it just left
Bangkok. He's not in Phuket. He's in the islands. So you
crazy. Because if I'd known that, I would have stayed. So I
didn't let's see if we can get a report. Maybe just by watching
it. If you're up to it, at least possible. And while we're on
being douchebags about about stuff.
And now it's time for your sexual harassment update.
And of course, there's always something going on in the me too
in the hashtag me to movement. Not all of it good. But
something that we surmised about. And I think we don't
remember exactly the conversation, but I'm pretty
sure we predicted this would happen, as we now have a full
sweep across the board there to CBS with Les Moonves out and
actually there's a couple more we've been forgotten about. And
here is the result. I'm pretty sure we predicted this.
And David, in your reporting. Have you come across people who
believe there's a climate at CBS entertainment division, and
parts of the news division, that fosters sexual harassment and
maybe even sexual assault?
John, do you think there's a climate of that or that CBS?
Absolutely.
Well, you know, the most glaring example of this in many ways,
it's Fox News under Roger Ailes, but this is very disturbing
company guess was
the topic douche bag
was great. It comes back to CBS. I just thought you'd get a kick
out of that.
Well, you know, the most glaring example of this, in many ways is
Fox News under Roger Ailes. But this was very disturbing coming
from the top. Les Moonves had been essentially running CBS for
two decades. And if you look at what happened in the news
division, as well, the fact that Jeff Fager, a former executive
producer, 60 min That's and former chairman of CBS News has
been accused of sexual harassment and tolerating a
culture at 60 minutes of that the fact that it turned out his
predecessor Don Hewitt, according to Revelations, had
essentially sexually assaulted former subordinate and colleague
female subordinates so severely that CBS ended up paying her
what totaled up to $5 million over the years and payments that
apparently are has still been going on as recently as this
year. It's hard not to think that there's a climate that is
not only hostile to women but hostile to the idea of
accountability for this kind of behavior. At least until these
revelations now and there's a merger on the table. It
certainly looks likely a Shari Redstone is the controlling
owner of both CBS and Viacom. She is wanting to merge these
sister companies wants more reunify them. And the main
obstacle in her way, was Les Moonves in the corporate board
at CBS that had been supporting him. That board has changed the
sympathies toward loot, Moonves, positions, change and mood as
has gone. So it would seem as though the stars are aligning
for her to be able to get controlled both companies and to
ultimately bring them under the same umbrella.
Gee, you don't think that was the plan all along? Do
you think that's an interesting theory? I'm
pretty sure we've discussed just that. I think we pretty much
did. Yeah. So
then, but money over there. And
what would the benefit be of bringing those two together? Is
there any particular benefit and why? Why did she want it and
those douchebags did
futz with the books a little better. Well, that's true. Use
the IRS a little better as law you just a lot of benefits. No
benefits to the programming. It'll probably hurt the net
Rathi in a network is going to have a slide.
Do they have the Super Bowl was at CBS was the Super Bowl
when they rotate it so that doesn't just No, no one network
house who has it
this year, though?
I don't know. Because I was reading about the the halftime,
which I think is 17 or 18 minutes is quite long. The
halftime show is Adam Levine. Maroon Five. Which is I mean, if
you want to get a safe vanilla x for the Super Bowl, Maroon Five
is your band. But you know, what they typically do is they want
to have other artists come out and participate and no one wants
to be a part of it. They're all worried about anything being
insensitive at any moment to anybody. Yeah. So and unless you
have anything else I'll close out
the segment. And this concludes your sexual harassment. Update.
Dan, you're up to speed. Yes.
All right. Well, we got to hear Nelo poisoning and the Hindu
celebration I thought was worth discussing. I was thinking
sinking pleases Hindu celebration poisoning. I want to
have a thought on this in India
southern state of Karnataka. 11 people died including two
children after what may be mass food poisoning at a Hindu
religious festival yesterday, more than 90 people were
hospitalized after eating a religious food offering
authority say several people are being questioned about the
incident. Police said that Oregon's of the deceased victims
have been sent to a crime lab for forensic analysis. Ah,
think is a terrorist attack. How many people
11 Dead into like hundreds. Wow. Heard. The big piece of news
that nobody in you probably don't have it. I don't think it
was talked much about because it took place I think late on
Friday, classic over the weekend thing was played up a little
bit. But did you know that Obamacare was was was
repealed? Know what was repealed. And this happened in
Texas. So I do know, there is and there was no repeal. That's
not true. A A judge a court in Texas said that the individual
mandate was unconstitutional. That's not quite a repeal is
kind of a no constitutional is kind of like it but it has to be
it has to go to the ugly. It's not a repeal. It's a
repudiation. Let's play the clip. A coalition
of states with Democratic leadership is promising to
appeal a federal court ruling that aim to invalidate the
entire Affordable Care Act known as Obamacare. Like yesterday,
Judge Reed O'Connor of the federal district court in Fort
Worth, Texas, said the laws individual mandate which
requires all Americans to have health insurance is quote
unconstitutional, and that the rest of the Act fails without
the mandate. The law and all insurance policies remain in
effect as the ruling makes its way through the courts. The case
was brought by a group of Republican state attorneys
general and is expected to go to the US Supreme Court this
afternoon on a visit to Arlington national cemetery
where volunteers had placed wreaths on each grave site.
President Trump praised the court decision.
Rolling, regret ruling for our country, will be able to get
great health care will sit down with the Democrats with the
Supreme Court will be sitting down with the Democrats and we
will get great health care for our people.
For some perspective on all this on a very busy Saturday newshour
weekend national correspondent Jeff Greenfield joins us now
from Santa Barbara. Jeff, let's start with what could be the
more consequential bit of news that happened last night, the
court ruling, a federal judge says the entire Affordable Care
Act is unconstitutional.
Well, when the Affordable Care Act was passed, it made every
American either get health insurance or pay a penalty. When
Chief Justice Roberts cast the deciding vote to uphold the law,
he said, well, that penalty is a tax, and Congress has the power
to impose a tax. Last year, Congress passed and the
President signed a bill that said no, no more penalty. And
what this judge said was, well, now that there's no penalty,
you're forcing Americans to get health care. You the Congress
don't have that power and the entire Obamacare law, Medicaid
expansion, subsidies for low income Americans protection from
from pre existing condition bans, no more caps on the the
lifetime payout of insurance companies, all of that he said
has to go. very skeptical.
There's a number of issues here. It was obvious genius just to
knock that what, Nick, that one little aspect of the Obamacare
system? Just to get rid of that, which is the you have to have
it.
Or you get fined.
To you'd can't get fined? Well, which which are the tape? Well
hold on. Just to just to recall, is Trump a genius individual
mandate was taken to the Supreme Court and deemed a tax and a
constitutional method of applying it. Right. So nothing
is, you know, I don't know this sounds like a bunch of posturing
and bullshit to me.
I don't know. I think it's going to be a problem. But I want to
remind people, there's two things one, I don't see how it's
gonna improve Annie nothing, nothing at all it crap. But I
want to remind people that this this whole system only began
this whole insure yourself yet even insurance even see a doctor
now never existed when I was a kid. It wasn't until 1973 When
Nixon signed the HMO Act of 1973. That allowed the health
care systems to make money, it was always illegal in the US to
profit off of health care until 1973. And ever since all they've
been doing is gouging us at the doctor's office, gouging us at
the especially the drug companies have been dest the
game they're playing jack up the price of the drugs. So does your
insurance prices have to go up? It is a scam that Nixon started
what was the legislation that changed that Do you know
the HMO Act in 1973, PA and did
that then also include all these restrictions of territories for
insurance companies
that came that came later evolved that and I want to
remind
people when you hear insurance company, you think all these
people are looking out for me Ella, the bankers, his banks,
this is banks is nothing else at the bank looks like a bank
smells like a bank is bank, just another financial institution.
But you can think ahead until 73.
These big operations in phony insurance operations, all the
rest of it's not insurance, where you have to have
insurance, you have to have an insurance card to go to the
hospital yet then insurance that didn't exist. That didn't exist.
And what only thing that came close was Kaiser. And Kaiser
wasn't wasn't profitable. It was just it was the Kaiser system of
it was kind of like an original HMO. And it was there as kind of
a kind of an experiment and socialized medicine. And it
worked. And then but there was no profit involved. It went
what's his gave him the green light to make money. They would
they've screwed us. That's why the American system is the
that's why we pay more. And we get less benefits from
healthcare in this country than any other country in the world.
And it's probably not reversible at this point. Because there's
so much of the economy. And this is what people I think failed to
realize. There's so much riding on this so many people are a
part of this, just working stiffs wouldn't be
reversible. If we get brainwashed that kids like they
do a climate change. This would be a better thing to get the
kids all worked up about
and how would How do you suggest going about that?
Well, maybe getting some teachers that can teach stuff,
the information that is valuable and so far instead of just
knuckling under. Oh, I guess my insurance rates have gone up
again. What am I gonna do?
I mean, it's pathetic.
Yeah, maybe we should get a little bit French vibe going on
some yellow yellow jacket stuff.
All right. That's my little complaint
for the day. It's a good it's, it's a valid complaint. You
think now the HMO Act of 1973. I'm needed. Go back and look at
that. Republicans again.
It was Republic is cruel it was doing somebody a favor screwing
us.
Yeah. Well, the other part of our economy here in the United
States is of course making war stuff. And we're very good at
it. And a lot of our money the best, we aren't foam finger up
in the air loud and proud number one, when it comes to making
stuff that kills other people, particularly brown people in
sandy areas, but how much money have we actually spent on it?
The Pentagon failed their audit, which got I think I mentioned
somewhere someone mentioned. Yeah, I should be talking about
this. You got a little mentioned held their audit? Yeah, just a
little mention about
given somebody $700 billion, you'd think they'd have higher
maybe that you think they could afford to hire a couple of guys
that could monitor where that money goes? No. asking too much.
Well, I need a Crawford who is chair of she the chair of she's
the it's here she is I need to Crawford is the chair of
Political Science Department at Boston University. She's come up
with some numbers. When it comes to the War Department as to just
how much we spent on fighting terror. Don't you want to have a
little guess? Fighting terror, fighting terror, yes,
and of course, a billion dollars $100 billion.
That actually was what was promised, we
wanted to help people understand how it is that the United States
has used its resources since 911. And in particular, how when
we were told that these wars would cost several 100 billion
dollars, they've actually cost into the trillions. And part of
the reason for that is the spending occurs in other areas
besides the Department of Defense Bosio budget,
right, and you've come up with a figure of 5.9 trillion in that
so far, since, let's say, 911, is that your baseline of when
you started,
we start with the 911 period. And we look at not only what the
US has spent in the overseas operations, the major one, but
also look at other operations that the United States has
conducted. And in addition, we add the spending that associated
with increased military spending overall, because the Congress
essentially has given the Department of Defense a blank
check. And we also look at Homeland Security spending
that's associated with counterterrorism, as well as the
spending that's related to taking care of the 3 million
veterans who have since returned from these wars.
And if somehow operations overseas, Iraq, Afghanistan,
Syria, wherever the multiple countries were operating in on
what seems like some large amorphous connected effort,
suppose that were to somehow magically cease at the end of
say, this current fiscal year 2019. What do you think would be
the effect
if it were to magically end and we know that the Department of
Defense is planning on spending till through 2023 At least if it
were to magically end we'd still have to spend in these wars, the
interest on borrowing to pay for the war, okay? Even if we
stopped today, we'd still be spending billions each year for
interest on the borrowed the United States military is
accounting for more than 60% or about 60% of all discretionary
spending.
Now, that's what we get to get the kids all riled up about
Yeah, a lot of money
always is if global warming is a distraction to keep the kids
from
from, from figuring it out, different figuring it out,
because you're you're paying taxes, you're your mommy and
daddy, you're paying taxes if you're not, and it's not going
towards fixing the world
is going it's actually going towards killing people. Yeah,
I'm in the world. Yeah. abominate gonna bomb them. I
have some very kind of sad news for the show. What? We know how
we've been doing transcriptions.
Yeah. Tom scooting is Dutch guy in Australia. He's been. So he's
done transcriptions of the last 90 episodes have no agenda.
Okay, now, and they're not great, you know. And then of
course, the transcriptions include the clips as well. So
there's a lot of strange stuff that shows up, but he did a word
cloud. So now we know what words are used most often on this
program, Trump? Well, I'm going to, in total 1,657,433 words
were put into the word cloud. And I will give you the top. Let
me see is this 10 I think it's 10 123456789 Yeah, it's the top
15 So we'll start down at 15. The word Republican was used 406
times in the past 90 episodes of the show. The after that, Adam
489 times or phasors Facebook 586 Time podcasts 653 Democrats
679. That's almost 200 times more than the Republicans
winning the popular vote in our world. vCloud yet again,
American, American 727 times Russia 757 times shows you where
our bread is buttered. John 1078 times that was used.
Why? Who uses John me?
To never talk about me? Clearly on the list, yeah, that 406
Oh no.
Then we then we jump from your 1000 to Trump 2074 which is not
as much as I thought it would be. But then at 8000 and this is
troubling the word think that I know where this is coming from.
And we got to we got to work on that. But is it because because
you say I think I think though I
think I hate this.
They should be saying I feel I
feel I feel like dream. I envision I posit it we've had a
number of them by posit that's when I'm gonna go for but I
think is that's what all these damn tech podcasts are doing all
the time. Well, I think now I think I think I think we have to
be careful of that one. And then that just let me just go
straight to the top to the top two words, most frequently used,
respectively with 14,010 1000 counts. Which two words would
these
be? High end you know? Nope. So I got that's all you got. When
you hear it you're gonna go the top two words are Yeah, and no
yah yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah, yah,
yah yah know, the top two words with no actually being number
one.
No, yeah, no. Yeah. About that.
We need to work on ourselves. That's that I found that to be
very discouraging. Well, we tried to pay attention to our
words. We do not again, clips are included in this. So it may
not Yeah,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. Right there.
Yeah, you're right. Yeah, yes, it's of no, right. But
still. We are the ya know, podcasters. Everybody proud to
be here? Yeah, no. Yeah, no, yeah. No, yeah, no, yeah. No.
That's fascinating.
Come on, you didn't like that?
I did like it. Well,
let me do a shopping tip then from NPR. Because you know, they
love these little things around the holiday shopping tip.
Popular board games. And you'd might be surprised by the most
popular board game of them all this season,
I want to ask you about a game that some members of our staff
have clued me about. I'm uncomfortable with the title
Secret Hitler.
Secret Hitler is currently very, very popular. And it was really
funny because when it first came out, they sent free copies to
every member of Congress. So it's very, very popular on
Capitol Hill because it got a lot of exposure and publicity
through that publicity stunt.
What makes something called Secret Hitler a game. By the
way, I want to point out the original made no secret, but go
ahead.
This is true. But in this game, there are different sides. One
person is secretly Hitler. Nobody knows who he is. And then
there are different sides that are trying to find him. And it's
basically called a hidden role game because nobody knows who is
who. And using deductive reasoning you're trying to
figure out who Hitler is and get rid of him. Against the perfect
game for Capitol Hill, right?
I shouldn't say
I'm astonished by by this report. If it wasn't for the
orange MAN bad if it wasn't for the incessant calling, Trump
Hitler, this would have been quite seen I think it's quite
outrageous. And maybe the ADL the anti Defamation League would
have said it's not funny to make fun of and to have a great
little board game with Hitler unless we all get to put on
yellow stars as we're playing you know you get to choose when
someone gets the yarmulke someone gets the someone gets
the yellow star I mean want to take it all the way with your
stupid board game. But yes, it's seen as funny now by NPR I find
it I find it quite insulting I'm not I'm not triggered by it but
Dan
Are you used Spirit you are triggered you're familiar with
what what triggered means that you just were You were triggered
right there. We witnessed it.
No, I'm not well, yes, I'm in denial. I'm triggered by it. I'm
triggered by the fact that it's it's we've taken things like the
word racism, the concept of Nazis and Hitler's when we just
taken this to
watering everything down and make It is an easier thing to
digest. Yes.
Yes,
thank you. We can now focus on real things that are important,
like climate change the extinction of everything on the
planet. If the
extinction rebellion, yes. Well, we can also take a look at
what's out there. Richard Branson, his spaceship was a
spaceship one flew into space. I don't I'm not quite sure
understand the euphoria over all this. Get it? Here's a little
clip of him just just He's beside himself. Obviously,
after 14 hard years to have taken Virgin Galactic into space
is a momentous historic occasion. So what happened this
wonderful spaceship that's behind us and took off early
this morning on this beautiful day attached to white knight
which was a giant plane that we built to carry her went up to
40,000 feet it then was dropped away from white knight it fired
its rockets and traveled from nought to 3000 miles now in
eight seconds, piloted by to wonderful astronauts and soared
into space and we could all see it just you know, from where we
were standing going up and up and up and up and then obviously
disappearing when they went into space. And then the now
astronauts which is quite exciting. Before this is
50 years ago, we put a bunch of people in a tube and they went
up and they walked on the moon and now we got to be all old as
you would put it jacked up over this I don't understand why is
this so exciting to get put a guy on the moon then you'll
impress me Richard Branson
a lot put a guy on Mars and you'll impress me all the money
we crazy this is just a joke the they've created the world's most
expensive Joy Ride Yeah, for rich, a holes douchebags that
are going to pay, you know, a half a million a quarter of a
million and a half a million bucks to take a ride in this
thing. And that's where they're getting is like wow, look at the
money we can make with three people in it for people as a
million bucks in this sucker and it's gonna get it causes a half
a million bucks to send them up. John make a half a million bucks
and five minutes,
John just explained to me with all the money that Branson has,
or even Elon Musk just compared to the moon launches, you know,
the moon shot. Think that without that was no tech. I've
been in the capsule, you know, a couple of dials and the couple
basically sitting on a big ass rocket. I mean, if you have all
this money, why would you fiddle around going into space and
doing like a little nose over like, Ooh, that was fun. Just
enjoy. Right? It's a joy. Why not go to spine I go to the moon
doesn't seem like all that the technology they were using was
all that spectacular? Or was it?
Yeah, well, you can make that argument till you're blue in the
face. I think your points well taken that these guys are just I
don't know why they're so good either because they can do it. I
think it's because it's like, I think it's the joy over the fact
that the that the after 50 years, the private sector can do
what the government could do 50 years ago, you know, using all
the resources of the government. I mean, the government can put
together a huge army, it has a $700 million military budget.
These are things that private enterprise really can't do.
Right? You can't spend $700 million dollars or 700 billion
I'm sorry, you can spend a rich, you I think Bezos is getting
close to this. He could spend, let's say at some future point
where it's always a trillionaire. He could spend 700
million dot billion on a giant military force and go invade
someplace. But he can't do it the next year, because he's out
of money. Only a government can do it.

again, thank you so much for supporting the no agenda Show
podcast, another podcast in the UK, very, very popular podcast
apparently. Which you were discussed on. Did you hear about
this? I'm sure. No, I'm sure someone would have sent this to
you. Or Stephen Fry, very famous guy. Stephen Fry, a very famous
brand.
He's very famous.
He hosts a podcast called no such thing as fish.
It's one of those British things we'll never understand. Take
classic. You've heard of this no such thing as fish.
No, but I said the Duke phraseology is yes. Okay, but
it's not strictly British.
So they talked about you. And do you want to hear it? Well, I'm
might as well
you know Oh, on the internet, if you click on a naughty site, you
might get a whole load of popups. Right? Things Oh, you do
know that pornographers digest that called port NATO's, our
pond storms. This is a phrase coined by John C. varjak.
Okay, first of all, is this true? Did you claim the porn
storm or poor NATO? Yeah.
I did, but but it was about 10 years ago. Yeah.
Well, so this so this part is true. But then
this is a phrase coined by John C. Wozniak, who was the nephew
of the guy who invented the Devala shack keyboard
is this fake news? Is your name John C, divorce Jack, nephew of
the man who built the the Georgia keyboard?
Well as it's a rumor that has been out there and I don't make
much of a point to just crush it.
Well, if you want to hear the rest of this clip, it's a
minute, they go into some other historical stuff. I know. It's
annoying, but it's it actually winds up to be very, very funny.
And I would like to play for you. Because you know where
they're going, obviously with the mouse bullshit, but it's
interesting to hear. So I know the real story. I know, I know
who you are. I know you've done all your life. You're not just
known for being the nephew of the guy who invented the
keyboard. As much as I'm not just the the, the MTV guy. So we
all know how this goes.
Yeah, but you were an MTV guy got nothing to do with the
keyboard.
You're one step removed your one degree of separation from fame.
Anyway, so let's continue with this. It becomes very funny
by John C. varjak. Who was the nephew of the guy who invented
the Devala shack keyboard? Which is like a QWERTY keyboard, but
it's supposed to be slightly better than the QWERTY keyboard.
That's a step down, isn't it? And Father Son invention terms?
Yeah. Well, Wozniak is he writes a lot about computers. And he
said that the recent Apple's Mac Macintosh computer would not be
successful is because it uses a pointing device called a mouse.
And there is no evidence that people want to use these things.
Which by the way, in hindsight, I think you're absolutely right.
Witness everyone using pens on their tablets, so there's no
evidence they wanted to use it. They did when they were forced.
I'm really defending you here, John.
And then he wrote a second. They're quoting from a column I
wrote in 1984. Yes, yes. In a newspaper. Yeah. So as if I
wrote it yesterday. Oh, it gets better. Two years later, it gets
better.
It's called a mouse. And there is no evidence that people want
to use these things. And then he wrote about Steve Jobs. Maybe
When the smoke clears. We will have heard the last of Steve
Jobs as guru sia visionary. He'll go the way of the pet rock
electric carving those silly putty Tiny Tim and the three
tone paint job
that's really rough on Tiny Tim
one of the most heart rending characters
I don't think they Who do they think tiny. I think they think
Tiny Tim is the kid in the dickens
Yes, that's who they're referring to. Now the other
thing about that particular mention that's pretty you know,
it's pretty scandalous because it they make it sound as though
I wrote this after he died. Yeah. I wrote that when John
Sculley took his job and kicked him out of apple in the 80s Are
you know, so they've taken that out of context this is
unbelievable that they would be this callous to take this out of
context to such an extreme and push it up to net to the current
era. As if I wrote that because he died and he's gone so we
don't have to worry about him anymore. That is really really
nice an apology. I think you should did for him. Bad for him
it was hilarious bad for this. I was. I was just a Hey, John was
a British prick. Hey,
John. Are you triggered? Yeah,
well, I can only imagine maybe Tiny Tim is something else in
America right? I guess so probably like a failed product
or something. But like, you know, they'll go the way of
sea monkeys nasal hair trimmers and Jude the Obscure bug
I hate those
eight holes, but I'm glad they found it amusing.
Don't lie. About my co host like that you British twats
teach you a thing or two.
My name out there just to say hey,
you know what it is as long as it's not your obituary I think
all presses good baby.
Take it. Good. Good to go.
Take it, baby. It's all good. I found that to be quite mean. I
was a little angry for you.
Not to work. Well, just a little it didn't bother me.
Let's put it I know. I know. I know your big boy.
Divorce horshack? Divorce. Yeah. conscious. Russian pronunciation
of the composer? Yes, yes.
Quite different. Okay.
Probably play a couple of things here.
I'm mindful of your time.
Got the thing right in my hand, I can't. I want to play this has
been it's been eating me. This is the Simon Sinek a guy I think
is sociologist writers on cellphone addiction, right? The
problem with this is he keeps saying right, and how
come that word didn't show up in a word cloud at the top. Right,
right. If you're
sitting at dinner with your friends, and you're texting
somebody who's not there, that's a problem. That's an addiction.
If you're sitting in a meeting with people you're supposed to
be listening to and speaking and you put your phone on the table,
face up or face down. I don't care. That sends a subconscious
message to the room that you're not just you're just not that
important to me right now. Right? That's what happens. And
the fact that you cannot put it away is because you are
addicted, right? If you wake up and you check your phone before
you say good morning to your girlfriend, boyfriend or spouse,
you have an addiction, and like all addiction in time, it'll
destroy relationships. It'll cost time and it'll cost money
and will make your life worse.
Okay, just thought everyone should know that.
I thought we played a longer clip of this guy I recall this
from Santa Fe
and went to play I'm sick of these long clips. Oh really clip
this, you know, they Trump finally decided he's gonna get
us a news guy chief of staff know hates him, but it's fine.
He's gonna put them in there. And I just liked the way the CBS
is a one minute clip. But it's about this guy Mulvaney the new
chief of staff and they can't even go more than just over a
minute before they have to kind of throw in spurious Trump. You
know, hey, Trump memes is ridiculous.
President Trump has selected his trusted cabinet official Mick
Mulvaney as his acting Chief of Staff, who will replace General
John Kelly who plans to leave by the end of the year. In recent
days, the President has denied that he is struggling to fill
the crucial White House position. But just today, former
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie took himself out of the
running.
Five people really good ones.
One reason for the lack of interest may be the growing
legal woes facing the president. Speaking for the first time
since being sentenced to three years in prison, President
Trump's former personal attorney Michael Cohen said today he
followed a bad path when he arranged hush money payments
during the 2016 campaign.
I'm angry at myself, because I knew what I was doing was wrong.
President Trump has denied the payments to former Playboy
model. Porn star stormy Daniels are made to help his campaign.
But Cohen says the president was worried about their allegations
of extramarital affairs.
So yes, he was very concerned about how this would affect the
election.
I would like to say something about that. I read the all the
documents about Cohen, the president's lawyer, and a couple
of things stood out. One is he does not actually have a deal, a
classic flip deal with the special counsels special
prosecutor was Muller. it specifically states and
documentation that he doesn't have this like a K K five letter
or some some technical term, he does not have that. So there's
no like real flipping that went on. But also the way it's
described. This is the Southern District of New York, which is
very different. It's not this is what's happened to Cohen here is
not the Muller investigation. This this is the Southern
District of New York where the financial crimes take place. And
this guy did she like $20 million bank loans that he lied
about and you know all this taxi medallion crap. And so they go
through all that stuff, which is the majority of it and these are
tax crimes which you get punished severely for cheating
on your taxes in America, we have an honor system, when you
when you when you mess up, you get caught or if whatever
happens, you can definitely go to jail. These guys have guns.
I've dealt with them. They're not nice, in my opinion. And
then at the end there, there's the campaign finance of finance
violations which are described in the documents as very, very
egregious crimes again, interest, although again, it's
from the Southern District of New York. So it may just be
opinion, I'm not sure what that means for them that what their
jurisdiction is. But they see that as at least 30 months
should just be for those crimes alone because it was defrauding
the United States. And is the only place where this showed up
a little bit was in his interview with George
Stephanopoulos on ABC, what a get wall way to go GA get the
boy. And here they do kind of just say, Well, you know, it's
not really it has nothing to do with anything. Really.
The truth is, I told the truth, I took responsibility for my
action when it comes to code of the weeks. And instead of him
taking responsibility for his actions, what does he do? He
attacks my family, for he
says, His claim, you're lying about him, to protect your wife
to protect your
father, inaccurate. He knows the truth. I know the truth. Others
know the truth. And here's the truth. The man doesn't tell the
truth. Male dead, and it's said that I should take
responsibility for his dirty deeds.
Cohen is cooperating Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his
Russia investigation. And separately, federal prosecutors
in the Southern District of New York have implicated but not
charged the president in those deals. They allege Cohen acted
in coordination with and at the direction of Trump, according to
court filings, Trump tweeted that he never directed Michael
Cohen to
break the law. If
it were true that the President was just an unwitting client,
who had been advised badly by a lawyer could be a defense
problem is that according to Michael Kohn, Donald Trump made
the deal himself with American media at this point, the
President is effectively an unindicted co conspirator. There
it is. Okay. Well,
this. Well, you know, the, one of the problems with the logic
of all this is that Trump, you know, he's, Cohen is a criminal
lawyer. And that's not deniable. And so whatever Trump says,
Well, you know, this guy's a crook. I was working with I
didn't know he's gonna be indicted and thrown in jail for
three years. And what are you blaming me for? And and the fact
is Cohen is a crook. So I think Trump will get out of this.
Well, it was golf, you know, and he, unless Cohen has it on tape,
which he might but he but there's no evidence of that,
because it would have been brought out.
I just the whole thing is that to me, it's very interesting,
because, you know, I think a lot of people in the media really
don't understand the difference from where this is coming from
what it's about, and Trump may very well be in trouble for
this. I don't know. This. The Southern District of New York is
very clear. They find this to be
Shanxi might be. Yeah.
I mean, and when you read the shots doesn't. Yeah, but when
you read it, it's like, wow, you know, and that's pretty clear.
And I will say the timing of it. If that didn't know this, the
timing of it is right after the the grabber by the pussy tape
came out. That was a couple weeks before the election. And
it was right after that, that these payments took place. So
yeah, I would say that is that is defrauding the United States
government from something we kind of knew. But if you want to
look at it black and white, like Yeah, we didn't want anyone to
know I'm a he's a douchebag. Oh, I guess Yeah. Then in that case,
was a douche bag. Yeah. But so he was trying to hide it. And I
think there isn't there's a case to be made that that is that is
defrauding the the American people. Now the severity of it
is something else. But I think he's I think he's in more
trouble than he thinks. I'm using. I think a lot. I posit
he's in a lot more trouble than I know. It's all me. You're
Yeah, no, I'm
think I'm Yeah, no, your thing. Yeah, no, I
think here. I think, you know, who really knows what to think,
to Maxine Waters, all
of the descriptions of what would happen if we move to
impeach Trump are basically Excuses, excuses, because, you
know, maybe they don't want to fail at it. Or maybe they
believe that Trump will cause a revolt. You know, you talk about
violence, you know, and they accuse others of violence. This
president basically said, if you move to impeach Me, My people
are going to revolt, and maybe some of that is resonating with,
you know, the senators and members of Congress, Republican
or Democrat, but they are derelict in their
responsibility. The Constitution gives us the responsibility to
impeach a President and others in government, if in fact, they
are are guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors which we
define. I believe that this President is dangerous. I think
he has undermined our democracy. I think he's aligned himself
with the enemy with Putin. He loves dictators. He has
literally undone some of the good public policy that has been
created for the safety of the citizens of this country. And I
believe that he certainly qualifies for impeachment. We
may never get it done. And maybe Democrats fear that somehow, if
we move to impeach him, maybe his base will grow larger. I
don't think so. I think they're going to shrink. I think that
base is going to shrink because they're going to see who this
president really is. He's talking about closing down the
government, he's gonna hurt some of the very people he claims to
want to support. Many of these people are just workers out
there. People who living on their paychecks day to day, and
I want you to know they cannot afford to have their paychecks
cut off. Because this President is going to close down the
government. He deserves to be impeached.
Goes on a rant, by the way. Grabbed by the pussy thing was
one month, not a week. Before I thought it was two weeks. It was
one month, one whole month, October 7. Okay, well, still, we
weren't Oh,
I thought it was two weeks. All right, one month. It doesn't
matter because the Washington Post knows exactly how this is
going to play out. I mean, it's very obvious. It's an easy
trick. You'll never have to go to jail ever.
Atreus exactly right? That is a guidance. It's never been
litigated. I don't know that the Trump Justice Department is
going to test it. I also don't think that Trump can pardon
himself. And if he tries that, and that's his only mechanism.
He risks being prosecuted after he leaves office. For that very
reason. I would predict here on MSNBC that when Trump leaves
office he will resign the presidency 10 minutes before
Mike Pence leaves office
I've never played this
I thought I had on the last show before this is what's this is
that just as the Rubin woman I don't I don't think we played it
just suppose okay well it's a room EJ this Jennifer Rubin to
suppose it conservative blogger for it who's a radical left
winger for The Washington Post is this is her prediction is
idiotic. He
will resign the presidency 10 minutes before Mike Pence leaves
office allowing pence to pardon him if there is not a Republican
president to follow him well.
Also, you have to accept the level of guilt. My panel will be
right back up next one.
Ah, yeah, guilt. The best accusation
against the president is a new one from a comedian, comedian
who used to work with Trump.
Okay, this would be good. No,
Kastler. Never heard of them.
Well, he makes some interesting allegations, a lot of work
in live television. I've done that for the last 20 years. I
work in TV production in the talent departments take care of
all the performers. Kind of like herding cats of cats had
publicists, massive egos. I did six seasons of The Celebrity
Apprentice finale. So you can see where this is going. My job
was taking care of the Trump family to Don Jr. I'm a Rosa
Melania like a freaking Mensa meeting every day. I really
liked you guys now. That's my favorite joke. I'm gonna tell
you one more thing. I don't usually talk to you tomorrow.
Thanks for being so nice to be free, crushes up his Adderall.
And He sniffs it because he can't read. So he gets really
nervous when he has to read cue cards. I'm not kidding. This is
true. I had a 24 page NDA a nondisclosure agreement. I
didn't know that he was become a president now it's no way don't
mass I'm telling you everything I know. So he gets nervous and
he crushes up these bills. That's why I snip in when you
see him in debates, and when you see him read and it's why he's
tweeting, you know, it's like he's out of his mind. It makes
sense if you think about it, Matt, the amphetamine was
invented by the Nazis keep the fighter pilots up all night and
bombing runs. Right. So it makes sense that Trump would use it to
hate tweet in the salsa. Or as
wow, I had not expected
that. I didn't hear anything about this. This is good.
Yeah, that he crushes up his Adderall and he snorts it
whenever he asked to read. And that's why he's, you know, but
that's dangerous. This guy is already hyperkinetic if he's
snort and meth in his head could blow up.
Orange Man bad combination. Have amphetamines yeah
wow yeah I'm surprised that a heart attack he's
listened to the podcast at 18 times speed yeah yeah those
those guys no agenda yeah I hit the ball I listened to the whole
show three hours and 30 minutes
so I picked up this piece there's unfortunately there's no
good reporting or clips on it but I have the printouts of the
latest trends in baby names.
Ah yes, in which region
USA Okay.
Clearly the baby name trends 2018 were mostly pop culture
World Cup names like Fei Felix Fern, who's gonna name their kid
fern. But okay, some people apparently F is inching up they
say. But the biggest trends of 2019 is dubbed global the global
names. As the world gets smaller. This is part of the
globalization we're gonna get globalizer names, the pool of
names becomes larger with new names from ever diverse origins.
Entering the global lexicon The report noted monikers under the
global trend include names from Greece, South America, Korea,
India and Israel. And these names include ready for these
names. I'm
ready. I'm ready. acacias. acacias within a within a wood
acacias, acacias, a row ha. A row, a row hop, like a raw
Japanese Yeah,
we get the joke,
Aurora, Roja. Sirene Jetta cairanne que era en Lautaro la
ou t Aaro Lior li o r naught ne ne ni RB and I ABI Sina scna and
walkin
as preserver wall calm
and then we go back to names and boys and girls back up go just
as far back as 2017 2017 you get bright you get these names which
you we've have seen these so these other ones are going to
show up. But a new trend is non binary names or them so these
are current current trends non binary names names that are
gender neutral. This means no names that end in sun like
mattes son are names are originally boy oh boy or girl
names that have migrated to the other side. So this is Charlie.
These names include these are the names coming up there for
your gender neutral baby.
Briar with a with a Bravo with a B. Yeah, B Briar Campbell.

me a boy or a girl royal which I've known people older guys
name Royal. And story. Story. Yeah, story. My name is sorry,
I'm sorry. And then finally, this last list is the Eastern
religions seem to have been creeping in. So you're going to
hear names as by the way, these are the result of how mainstream
yoga meditation and non traditional spiritualism have
become part of the mainstream so you're gonna get names like
this.
A Shara
Bodhi Bo d h i Cali, which I believe is a god. Lash Lakshmi,

Well, we had better name.
I'd like a Roomba. I mean, what does it Aroha Rojas robot is
still the way to go.
My name is Rohan and here we have coming to you as a Rohan
Dvorak. I'd
like to close this out with two yellow vest updates. I'd like to
start with yours from PBS as this is not stopping. Throughout
Europe, it is bubbling under the news media is not really talking
about it. Because they can't they can't. So let's see what
PBS says the
yellow vest protests in France entered their fifth straight
weekend today as marchers call for more government reforms in
Paris. There were fewer protesters than on past
weekends, almost 70,000 Police mobilized throughout the
country. The government had called for a suspension of
protests following Tuesday's attack on a market in the city
of Strasburg. Today's protesters did hold a minute of silence to
mourn the for victims
of that attack. Did you see the list that they actually want?
They have a list had no
yes they have a list of demands. This is why it's not stopped
because this is not just about the carbon
tax. No, they're good we've gotten they've fed up I'm going
to
run down zero homelessness income tax more progressive
which means more slices. Minimum wage for growth 1300 euros net
per month promote small business villages in city centers stop
the construction of large commercial areas around big
cities that kill small business. Large installation plan for
housing ecological savings. Make big people pay big money. So
that's Google Amazon Crossroads is what they're saying. Same
system of social security for all. The pension system must
remain in solidarity and socialized end of tax increase
on fuel no pension below 1200 euros. Any elected
representative will have the right to a median salary as
transport transport costs will be monitored and reimburse of
their justified the wages of all French people as well as
pensioners and allowances must be indexed to inflation. I mean,
it just goes on and on and on and on. We see what else jobs
that are created for the unemployed Sure, magic, increase
in disabled benefits limitation of rents and low rent housing
prohibition to sell property belonging to France like
airports and dams. Substantial means granted to justice. All
money earned by highway tolls should be used for maintenance
of motorways and roads. I mean it. I mean, there's at least 100
different demands. Well, good.
Did they have the one I think is I would demand What's that? That
all airplanes carrying passengers should charge the
passenger by their weight?
No, no, they don't have that. I do have a Voice of America.
version of the story. The Voice of America you have to
understand is that is put together by the broadcast Board
of Governors. It's a propaganda arm of the United States State
Department. It is 100% propaganda, so fun to listen to
their version of the Paris protest this also this is from
actually about a week ago. But there's a little fun little
gotcha in here so you can understand where the State
Department is with their head
here in the United States. The US president has weighed in over
the weekend about the situation with some interesting tweets and
Frances Foreign Minister apparently telling him to but
out it's not really clear what the President meant President
Trump tweeting about Paris agreement not working out well
and that people there are chanting, we want Trump in
response, France's foreign minister Sunday, telling Mr.
Trump to basically not interfere in French politics that we don't
do that to American politics. What do you know about that?
Well, what I can tell you is that I was at the Johnson he's a
rather the
she is a cushy job with the chancellor, working for the
Voice of America. And for
what I can tell you is that I was the chancellor is a run the
active peon for many hours during the protests on Saturday.
I did not hear one person say we want Donald Trump effect. I
didn't even hear anyone talk about Donald Trump. The question
of Donald Trump saying this demonstration was all about the
Paris Climate Agreement. It has nothing to do with the Paris
Climate Agreement is actually a demonstration of people talking
about wanting their dignity to being able to live on money that
they earn and having respect that so I don't know where that
came from.
Just so you know, it's not all about carbon taxes at all. Yeah,
that's what you just said lies. Voice of America. It's American
lies.
Yeah, well, I guess our allies are good. They are very good.
They serve a purpose
necessary. It's about the truth is when he was telling the truth
he wasn't telling the truth. Yeah, and that's the truth. And
