Dark Mode is here. Adam curry
Jhansi Devorah it's Thursday, September 19 2019. This is your
award winning cable nation media assassination episode 1174. This
is no agenda being scrubbed slowly
and broadcasting live from opportunity's own 33 in the
frontier of Austin, Texas capital of the drone Star State
in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley, I see a yellow truck of
Jhansi, Dvorak
and Buzzkill.
Okay, is it a big yellow truck?
That'd be a nice contrast your spiel?
Is it a dump truck? It was a
small pickup truck as a matter of fact. And now that I think
about as I look out, and I can see dig and look out and see the
freeway. I don't see anything but grey and black and the
occasional red white. What car colours? So one blue is no grey,
grey, grey, grey, grey, black, black, black, grey, black,
black, white. I mean, this this doll out there, John. So this
yellow truck stands out like a sore thumb.
Did men in white coats get out of that truck in front of your
house?
Just so boring to see these. Why can't they back in? I was a kid
in the 50s. I used to have three tone cars. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, tan roof.
Well, I'm sad to report. And I'm pretty sure now and I, I
wouldn't call it shadow banning. But the new Twitter algorithms
are definitely screwing with me. And I attribute that to the fact
that I have no blue checkmark. And I can see it I post
something. Normally within five minutes, there might be 1020
retweets or likes. Now two, three, maybe I retweeted myself,
maybe one or two pick up all all kinds of reports of people even
entering at Adam curry in the search box doesn't autocomplete.
So I think the and by the way, I'm not seeing a lot of people
either. I never see Scott Adams anymore. Not that, you know,
it's that much of a none of this is a really a problem for me.
But when it comes to the show, like announcing the show, and
you know, just announcements. It's not working for us anymore.
Here. Let me see what I got now, on the bat signal.
Let's see.
So we have how many people we have in the we've got 763
Trolls? And looks like four retweets Come on. So it's so
college? I don't call it shadow banning. I don't think that's
what it is. This is just the algorithms like Oh, this guy.
Let me help you out with that. Okay. I can't do it at now,
because it's real complicated. But I will walk you through a
process to make your life to make this less of an
issue. There's a process. Yeah, no, no. What does this? What did
they just tell me simply what is the process? I don't believe it.
I think this is just another
settings and you got it. You got to take it and look at what
Twitter has determined that are your interests? Oh, no, I
understand. I can change and
uncheck a million boxes. Have you done that? If you unchecked
any box? Well,
then what happens? I see more of who I want to see. I want people
to see me
know if it changes. It's like the boxes that are checked.
Yeah. are represented mil you.
Oh, I mean, the wrong meal. You I see.
Well,
you know, yeah, maybe you've got a solution now, but this,
there's no, this is not a
I'm not saying this is a good thing. I mean, even this
solution is like sketchy. Right? But it does help a
little bit. Well, this is why I'm going to suggest two things.
First of all, after today's show, I will post in the show
notes, an invitation link to no agenda social.com. I mean, this
is clearly we need to have some mechanism. So you know, you can
get all kinds of apps and they can give you alerts when I'm
posting and you know, there's all kinds of stuff we can do.
because Twitter is over for us. And yeah, so maybe now I can
change my perceived milieu know, I don't know what I have to
check or uncheck Yeah. But that's not that's no future for
us. It's just going to get worse and worse. I think it's time to
reinstate no agenda hams. Well don't you remember we had a
repeater. We had reflectors, we had echo link channels. We had
all kinds of cool stuff going on.
Ya know
why it was to be fair? Seven or eight years ago, but it was.
Yeah, it was not long after we started with the after you got
me into the hobby?
Let's no I see. Okay. Yeah, you're you're all jacked up
because his effort and you're all jacked up, but
yeah, well, I am I'm reject and it's and I think with good
reason. And I've set up my my HT my handy set that up again, and
I'm monitoring on D star reflector. 33 Charlie right now,
in fact, if anyone can
I saw, you know, yeah, I'm thinking I've just as I think
about this, I saw those tweets. Yeah. That's when the algorithm
went into full force and shadow. Oh, my God, one of these guys
get off get off. But I think we see ham radio as a as a
competitor.
It is. And if you I think that we have enough people now to
start up the no agenda nation repeater network, which could be
to, you know, it should it should actually be a repeater to
repeater network, we may have people in close enough proximity
to get a lot of that. And not rely on the on the Internet back
end. But I'm going to be on D star on reflector 33. Charlie,
and I'm going to be monitoring and the conversation. I'm
interested in how because this was the problem. We had nothing
to talk about when we had the no agenda has be like, Hey, your
rig sounds great. Yep. Yeah, it's coming through fine. Yes.
Good. So
at least we'll have something to talk about,
which is all the conversations
pretty much but now we can talk about building our repeater
network, which will be handy for something you can do with
digital and we can do a lot. In fact, you know what we need our
own CubeSat. That's what we need.
If every there's an idea if every if just continuously. We
could be the ones we could be the ones who save the world when
all hell breaks loose. Right?
Right. Right. But I think a CubeSat
CubeSat could really could really do it.
You know, you can leave messages on those too for them to be
rebroadcast. Now here
we have ham radio, guys, ham radio is the public service
network of last resort. When the apocalypse comes, where are the
guys who are going to save the world? Right,
right. But I'm serious, I want to build this, I want to build a
repeater. When I want people to set up, we can do echo link
reflectors, we need to do cross cross linking between
reflectors, we need analogue, repeater, to repeater. And I'll
meet you on D star, then of course, we were like I don't
have the dark. So someone needs to set up a reflector again, and
then we can do it on echo link. And if you don't know what this
is, you're missing out on a fabulous hobby, known as amateur
radio, and you too can become a ham today. Anybody
who listens to this show can pass the tech test probably.
Probably just right
now without without even studying. Yeah, I mean, then
study a couple minutes and you definitely pass. Well, the
beauty of it is that the questions for each test for each
year are released publicly with the answers. You get the test.
It's the same answers just in a different order. If you can't
and by the way, that's the
same for the general.
Well, it's not all of them. Sure. It's just a selection of
them. Anybody can do this, and you can get a ham radio that
would work on this network for 25 bucks now.
Yeah, the Baofeng
20 faded China. Yeah. Well, so it's just the irony.
It is trying to go OTG and using Chinese crap to do it with it's
great,
but that's the cheapest stuff, that's for sure. Yeah. So
yeah, and and I know agenda hams are so alert. Not a single one
has called me on the channel. Like Oh, watch. I'm gonna
mention it on the show. They're gonna fire up their machines and
start talking to me. Nope. Well, so I have a way to go with the
Evangel evangelising the project. Clearly
that's the way it always is. Yeah. Yes.
Well, like going on.
It was actually a lot going on. It's all subtle. Yeah. I mean,
the Brexit thing was going on. Did you by the way I can just
start with if you want to start with Brexit Sure. This guy you
know gi vendor joven blow oven. Yeah, he's
the Belgian guy, the Belgian guy
who you've helped sound exactly like when you do that voice?
Yes. Show him I am Gifford Hofstede, I am very, very nice
to be here and the show is
well here is I got two clips from him. There's actually shows
three but one of them is just a long clip that we don't want to
play. But we got he went to London and he was at the meet up
or convention of the Liberal Democrats who are all wearing
get, you know, stop Brexit and the Liberal Democrats are really
New World Order. globalists don't like England, any more
than half the people are England writing as well. Yes. That's
like the country. Yeah. And so this guy is gonna go get one of
the keynotes, and get a big round of applause. But he had
two moments in the keynote that I thought were worthwhile
besides him trying to be funny, which he apparently does
constantly. Yeah. And this would be the this is one that I just
heard off handedly and I felt it needed to be re thought. And
this is gi on Brexit, interpret this,
I have one conviction that Brexit happens is also a sign
that this European Union needs to be modernised needs to be
more effective. We cannot continue. We cannot continue the
friends were the Europe that is always acting too little. And
to lead. Yes. You cannot go on like this. As I said to my wife
this morning.
That's him. It's pretty hard not to laugh at this guy because of
his. His accent. Yeah, well, this particular commentary,
which was short, it was a well what was it the length
2020 sec, what he's saying
there was he started by
saying the Brexit was only half way. Let me I'm gonna
deconstruct it completely and tell you what he actually said
was that Brexit should have never have happened because the
it only happened because the EU was too weak. To put the kibosh
to put the kibosh on the whole thing to begin with. They were
they just were not strong. And and underneath that thinking is
that we needed a European army and we need to have you know, we
shouldn't let these countries do stuff like this Brexit. And
that's what he said. He literally said, stop. If we had
our act together, Brexit would have never have happened because
we wouldn't have allowed it.
Let's listen one more time. So only 20 seconds,
I have one conviction that Brexit happens is also a sign
that this European Union needs to be modernised needs to be
more effective. We cannot continue. We cannot continue the
friends were the Europe that is always acting too little. And
too late. And friends. We will be acting on behalf of the
European Union. vvl gives them shit if they tried to leave.
It's not going to happen on my watch. Yep, yeah, but this guy
is a total douche. He's a suit. He isn't
gonna crash love him.
He's the guy. Hold on. I have the he's the guy that said, you
have to hand over all your sovereignty.
Yeah, he's the guy. You're right. Let me see. He has such a
jocular style of delivery that you don't take it too seriously
as you should. This guy is threatening you. Yeah.
I can't find it that easily. But anyway. Oh, yes. Here we go. And
here it is. It's 20 seconds as well. He the guy speaks and 22nd
sound bites. How about that.
And that is the real problem, colleagues, why there is such a
problem in this crisis, because member states are reluctant to
transfer new sovereignty and powers to the European Union.
And we all know that the only way out of this crisis is a new
transfer of powers to the European Union and to the
European institutions and make it Snell. Yes.
Well, it's not it's not a one off this guy is very consistent.
Yeah. And they're loving it over there to Lib Dems. Anyway, so he
did the thing. Somebody he's one of our producers sent me this
clip. And I pulled that apart, but he's the emphasis
everybody's making is on this clip, which is, I don't know, I
don't think it's as onerous as the other one is longer. But it
does tell you a little bit about some of the kinds of screwball
thinking that goes on and this is a GI on the New World Order
of tomorrow
and your world order off tomorrow. The world order of
tomorrow is not a world order based on nature. Certain states
or countries is a word order that is based on empires. China
is not a nation. It's a civilization hum. In your you
know it better than I do is not a nation. There are two types of
nations in India 20 different languages that are used there,
there are four big religions at the same time. It is the biggest
democracy worldwide. The US is also an empire more than a
nation. Maybe tomorrow they will speak they're more Spanish than
English, I don't know. And then finally, the rest of February,
the world of tomorrow is a world
do you hear what this dick just did actually, is like, it'd been
overrun by immigrants. You're gonna be speaking Spanish
tomorrow. This is exactly what's happening in his backyard. In
Europe, people are coming in who do not learning the native
languages of the member states. And he's into you.
If you dig deeper into what he's saying, and again, nobody takes
him seriously because of the way he talks. But he's saying that
look at India. It is there's 20 or digas. He said 20 languages
that they're all speaking but yet it's this big democracy that
seems to work as sorry, I can barely get that out. But it
somehow works. According to him.
India is they're moving to Europe because they got no
water. This shithole
is a total shithole. And she
told, let's listen to it. Let's finish the clip. I'm sorry, I
didn't mean to interrupt, but I was like, come on
time. It is the biggest democracy worldwide. The US is
also an empire more than a nation, maybe tomorrow, they
will speak they're more Spanish than English. I don't know what
will happen. And they laugh. And then finally, the rest of
February, the world of tomorrow is a world of empires in which
we European and new British can only defend your interest your
way of life by doing it together any European Framework and in
Europe.
And those difference, those who want to defend or standards of
living, or social standards, or ecological standards, or labour
standards, can only do that they know it only in the framework of
Europe and inside Europe, in the centre of Britain, that take its
responsibilities and not is going out of this great
programme.
Fear is freedom. subjugation is liberation. Contradiction is the
fact that this world and you will surrender to them.
It's to me, it's unbelievable. And they cheer him. Yeah. Oh,
yeah. Yeah, right. Let's just didn't a desk. This is I don't
want to make an analogy that stretches too far. But this is
if Hitler gave a speech in England, say in the late 30s,
or, say mid 30s. Before World any of the frictions began and
said, Why don't you just surrender to Germany. That way,
you don't have to worry about having this big wars going to
kill a bunch of people. And we'll all be happy. And we'll
get this done together. Because you guys can't take care of
yourselves. You're you're incompetent. You need us.
I could just go go on and on and on and on.
We got the clips. Yes. Play clips
are applauding this? This to me, and we're seeing some of this
happening in our country. There's stuff that's like, I
mean, waiting room who will be talking I'm sure about the
school strike tomorrow, that these are all really old. The
policies from socialist countries. So Communist China. I
mean, this is crazy. What's happening and this isn't in the
EU is exactly he's just saying we should go back to how it was
in the 40s the good old days.
Don't know I just find it distressing and you're gonna
have another election, I'm sure of it. Brexit is not going to
happen. I mean, it's the Brits are, are so screwed at their
core, but they're, they're already you know, they got too
many of these liberal Democrats that are that sort of thinking
that says, Yeah, let's just give ourselves our country away. And
just throw our sovereignty give it to the EU. Just let them have
it. Because we It can't We can't manage ourselves right Doer
Boneheads? That's what I that's what the guy said. That's what
he says you guys don't you can't do this. We need labour laws
that we tell you what to do. Yeah, you
guys have, it's almost like you had your shot. Now you gotta
listen to us.
I'm sure that's what he'd like to say.
That's what he wants to say he's there, just what he wants to say
I'm sure as much even better than this.
I do have one Brexit clip as that this was very odd to me, as
the prorogation is now in front of the UK Supreme Court, and to
see if this is legal, and there's all kinds of issues
going on. And as I predicted, I don't think Boris was ever going
to make it happen. And now, I didn't even know the UK had a
Supreme Court. They don't have a written constitution. It's kind
of Yeah, well, there's bits from here and there. And we got some
precedents and some jurisprudence. And the Supreme
Court is a dude at a low desk, as in a small room, like he's
like he's a university professor. I think he even had a
blackboard behind him. He's got, you know, like binders and
crates, not you know, he's not wearing robes or anything. It
doesn't even look like I mean, this is one guy see the court? I
don't know how it works. And then some other guy is pleading
his case. And this is and they don't know they did to like,
well, we know who determines what's right, who is the
ultimate authority in the land? Would you
accept that the exercise of the power to prove parliament has
the potential to affect or undermine Parliament's ability
to carry out its constitutional function of holding the
executive to account.
My role, by definition, are not accepted exactly those terms.
I'd be accused of accepting a contentious proposition. But it
by definition prorogation as the point that I will come back to
has the effects that it has. So the bills that were previously
before Parliament fall, they can be reintroduced. And so the
parliamentary questions cannot be asked so that the
parliamentary committees do not sit. So of course, to that
extent, it has the effects that it has, that my my submission
will be. Despite those features, this is a well established
constitutional function exercisable and to be exercised
by the executive. And the question remains whether there
are to go back to the rationale identified in showgirl whether
there are judicial manageable standards against which the sort
of political judgments that are inevitably interwoven into
decisions to propagate whether there are such standards, I'm
going to come to analyse that and also, whether it is as a
matter of constitutional propriety appropriate for those
controls to be exercised by the courts, as opposed ultimately to
the bodies which the executive is ultimately accountable.
This is how it goes. Shut up slaves. Your representatives
don't mean crap they want it they want the court to make a
decision on this Well,
we'll see
and he says constitution like what constitution get it? Now
I'm sure
this course does of course we'll
have plenty plenty helping us out. I know I spoke to pathetic
yesterday.
Good. What did you find out?
Well, I asked him specifically about these drones and the Saudi
Arabian refinery. Good because I'm like you know what is what
is this? Is it from Iran did did Iranian shoot it off in Iraq?
Was it a cruise missile? Was it some kind of sophisticated drone
How did it get through the to the defence is looked at by now
I think everyone's seen the holes. I mean, these are what
may be 20 yards apart perfect holes in these domes. And that's
it pretty pretty badass cruise missile strike and just a whole
there's been a couple I don't know if I have a lead in clip
but there's been a couple of different reports. At first I
heard they were too drunk. There's a bunch of these. I
don't know what the point of the drones were. But there were at
least two cruise missiles and then it was NBC. I think they
said there were there were nine. Here's this play. There's a lead
in good this is David Martin and David Martin is probably one of
their best foreign correspondents old time are
pretty straight. In terms of his reporting. He doesn't like lean
into the Trump hate thing and he could be CIA. But he gives a
really good reports. This is David Martin on the on the drone
strike from CBS what we're going
to begin tonight with David Martin at the Pentagon who has
more on the Growing case the US is building against Iran.
US officials say experts have examined pieces of the wreckage
on the ground in Saudi Arabia, identified the specific type of
cruise missiles and drones fired and determined they were made in
Iran. Other analysts have traced their tracks back to points in
southwestern Iran. One official call it a complex and
coordinated attack involving two dozen drones and nine cruise
missiles. Although Vice President Pence stopped short of
saying flatly, it was Iran
today, it's certainly looking like Iran was behind these
attacks. Our intelligence community at this very hour is
working diligently to review the evidence.
Iran appears to have found by
the way, that's a great little thing he threw in there in the
intelligence community at this very hour. That's that's war
talk. That's great. You know, it's like at this hour, we are
bombing Baghdad. At this. Our troops are landing on the
beaches of Normandy at this hour. There is another tent
going up in downtown Austin,
these attacks. Our intelligence community at this very hour.
Did you say my intelligence community fantastic pensee.
Know, he said
our intelligence Kumar,
do you think you are? Our that now I missed the best part.
Okay.
Our intelligence community at this very hour is working
diligently to review the evidence appears to have found
that's in the cliff.
Wow, that's great. Yeah,
another thing it's interesting that pants, I mean, there's this
issue we've talked about on the show before about the
pronunciation of Iran. And the insiders that ends at some level
at sod some side of the fence pronounced that Iran which is
what which is what David Martin says if you listen to he says
Iran, and then of course the other side of this of the
pronunciation fences, Iran, that's wrong.
That's just wrong. It's wrong. It's wrong. It's wrong.
Pence pronounces it so I
just want to know I just got to throw some myths some sound
effects in there that seems to work really well at this hour.
Hour
is working diligently to review the evidence.
Iran appears to have found a gaping hole in Saudi air
defences around their most valuable asset oil. Saudi Arabia
relies on us made Patriot air defence batteries, but they were
all pointed self toward Yemen. We're past missile attacks have
come from the missiles and drones that hit the oil
facilities this weekend came in from the north us as patriots of
the zone and an airbase in the middle of the country, but they
were too far away. Having been unable to prevent the attack. US
warned it might retaliate.
We're locked and loaded, locked and loaded. We're ready to
defend our interests and our allies in the region. Make no
mistake about it
has been locked and loaded since last spring when
that is my sound effect. They just use their listen to it and
when you're going to hear theirs and then I'll play mine. Okay,
you're ready, and we're
ready to defend our interests and our allies in the region.
Make no mistake about us.
That's there's my effect.
Yours is more elaborate.
Mine's better for sure region.
Make no mistake about it.
USA has been locked and loaded since last spring when he sent
an aircraft carrier and B 52 bombers to the Persian Gulf. The
Joint Chiefs Chairman General Joseph Dunford told reporters
the President has not yet asked for any military options for now
the most concrete consequence of what Secretary of State Pompeo
called an unprecedented attack on the world's energy supply. Is
that President Trump said he preferred not to meet with
Iranian President Rouhani next week when world leaders gather
at the UN.
Alright, now before I get to Puranic that is a good lead in
thank you for that. Shep Smith brought sharpener ships, Fox
News, he brought it which I never watched. But I did find
this clip so unscented to me, he brought up the obvious, which we
said always has to be part of one of these deals,
expecting the president shortly we'll play that for you as we
get it, Michael, the bigger picture. There was a time when
world oil prices factored in risks to oil facilities. And
there's a name for that it's sort of been on the on the side
for a while but with with this new drone technology and
instability of the region, I wonder bigger picture how
concerned you are that this sort of thing could happen again,
I do worry because what we really need to stop this kind of
thing is is directed energy defence laser beams essentially
can shoot down an indefinite number of small if you have to
use a missile to take out each drone. The economics are against
you, the geography is against you. And the laser technology is
coming along but it's not quite economic surprise
these guys they don't do any effects this should be doing,
talking about lasers and shit. Nothing I'm gonna call
and effective enough yet that it could really protect all these
Saudi or other oil facilities. So unbalanced there is going to
be some ongoing vulnerability here. My guess is we could
probably do a little better with the point defence of these kinds
of facilities, maybe not each and every one but the most
valuable, the most fragile. So I think that's the next step is to
look into how much better defence you can do, there's
going to be a certain amount of vulnerability however, either
way you look at it,
our allies seem concerned.
All right, so there's your there's your military industrial
complex, you know, thinking about ramping up some directed
energy weapon technology, so that we can take those drones
down. So I spoke to Puranic and I recorded our conversation. And
I asked him a couple of things. And for those who don't know,
Steve Botanik, go look them up on Wikipedia, PIECZE and IK, he
has an unbelievable record and resume, the resume for sure
record, I guess. And he certainly has his own take. And
when I asked him about what kind of drone was this, who did this,
he came out of such a no agenda angle, I'm angry. I didn't
figure it out myself. One
of the key factors that came out but nobody really realised was
the fact that Aramco or the Saudi Arabian oil was to go
public recently,
oh, I Oh, I thought that was off. That was off the table, it
was still ready to go.
It was off the table, because the what we call the strike
price, or the price of the stock at the initial offering, was not
what Ben sought what Mohammed had wanted, or the Saudis had
wanted, because, in fact, without Saudi oil, we do very
well. Thank you very much. The United States of America is a
net exporter of oil, and we do not need Saudi oil. The reason
we allow Saudi oil to go up there is to really allow them to
be our subordinates are sick of things, so to say but Mohammed
bin Salman doesn't want to admit it. And I honestly if I were in
his military, I would have an overthrow, because he's really a
danger to Saudi Arabia and to the Middle East. The truth of
the matter is, I don't think anything hit those oil tanks on
their own, because when you have an IP on this goes back to my
days as a managing director of an investment banking firm, and
you pull away from a strike price. That means you did not
make the front of the amount of money that you want it. Now
Mohammed bin Salman fantasies that he will make $2 trillion
based on the net asset value of oil in Saudi Arabia, there's no
way you can say that that's worth 2 trillion. He spends
about 100 billion a year just subsidising the whole government
and using his National Guard to terrorise people and the war in
Yemen, which he does not need. millions of kids died. It's a
proxy war against Iran. And guess what, Iran will always
win, they've been around a lot longer. So the bottom line is I
don't believe the story. It was a 5% deficit in oil. We made it
up within minutes. And Trump correctly said, Oh, let me see.
I don't think anything hit them. But it was Iranian operatives
involved or machinery, baloney. You know, this is a self
destructive, destructive element in order to get the oil price
up, and it didn't work. And
I went and looked on Reuters and MarketWatch. And it's true. They
were planning on going public. And well, we don't know, I'd
like the theory of the strike price being off the ice, the
price of oil wasn't high enough. Let's see if we can jack it up.
And now they're saying they want to take it public in November,
instead of next year. They have now there's all kinds of IPO
news they're really trying to do anything they may be before oil
goes down again even further.
Yeah, they plan to go out. When they plan they go out the price
of oil was too low. And so they were gonna get all that money
that they hoped for. They had to change the as I don't know why
he says what we call a strike Pro, who's we know he calls it
strike prices, the price.
It's what he's not, but what he's talking about is the IPO
you have. It's your price,
the price that this republic offers. How's it different than
price?
I don't know why you're focusing on that. But okay,
I don't know. It just seemed odd. Okay.
We think that's odd,
or somebody was actually it wasn't that it was like it was
somewhat patronising. I thought,
I think he means what he means we as an Adam and Steve because
we talk a lot about day trading and he's a day trader. Yeah. So
I think That's what he meant. I don't think he meant it
patronising. He did go on to say that the real problem in all of
this is MBAs, it's Mohammed bin Salman, who we don't talk about
much. But you see his investments in Twitter and he's
trying to do anything he can according to the channel,
because you're here to find additional value in anything he
can get his hands
on. Now, remember this, Adam, your audience has to understand
this is not the first time that Saudi Arabia has wanted to go
public, right? Because they have no indigenous businesses. In
other words, Mohammed bin Salman, in his fantasy world is
going to my age and William Morris and Beverly Hills, he has
to reach out all the Jewish guys in order to bring up that
workout payment that it shows me how hard up he is, yeah,
attainment and high tech companies. But in fact, the
reality is he tried 2017 They failed to go public 2018 They
failed to go public. A few days ago wasn't an accident when
Bolton left suddenly we had a missile strike so to speak, in
the Saudi gas tanks when in fact there was no missile strike,
there was a deficit of 5% of oil when there is no deficit we can
make it up in a nanosecond and we do with West Texas Permian
oil thanks to you guys. Tax sweet and making up we don't
even need Brent oil, which is $10 more than what we do in West
Permian. So basically, the Saudis are pretty much screwed.
They know what we know what and their valuation can never come
to their own assessments in other words, they have no assets
that really are valuable.
Now you know more about the oil markets I'm just going to
presume he knew what he was talking about.
Well he can't say that there's they got nothing of value. So
that giant pile of oil is worthless is that what he's
trying to say there? It makes no sense.
I think what he's saying is that they're no longer the boss the
they don't have guaranteed customers. We're no longer a
guaranteed customer we have other choices. I think that's
the point.
That's not what he said. He said they have nothing of value.
I don't think the oil market is drying up so much that if you
pull if you pull the Saudi oil off the market completely it
would have an effect on the oil price no doubt no doubt.
But the this bombing didn't have the effects that was rumoured
memory
that was we horror was chatted about this. It was like the oil
price had a short spike. Because Oh no. And then everyone came to
their senses except apparently the TV networks I don't have a
clip I don't think where are they? They're they brought some
goof do facades one of the Congress MINISTER Well, you
know, we're so we're debate we're so dependent on Saudi oil.
I'm so what when was this? Oh, yeah, I was. I was watching this
on the Raven news. We're we haven't been dependent on
anybody's or a week. We're self sufficient. Hello. So when you
hear somebody say we're dependent on Saudi oil? Yeah.
Who's Who's it's bullcrap.
Where's he getting his check from is the first question.
So it was sort of spiked up and then it did ramped down as fast
as it spiked up pretty much and it was a net result of nothing.
Exactly nothing burger as you'd like to say.
No, I don't say that. I've never I've never I've never no find it
bullshit. Recently, what you want to shows? Oh, I'll give you
four shows. Find it make find? Eight,
eight, find that. Okay,
and then we'll count the times you go. So
you're supposed to stop me from doing
that. It's impossible. This is you in and it's the
imperfections that make you perfect.
The point is, is
that the there's it didn't work. He's right. But Janek is totally
right about this. Which is? Yeah, it was a flop of if it was
designed to run the prices up. Now, here's
the funniest part. Sure. And by the way,
I thought it would.
Well, I said they were talking 100. And you said no, that's not
going to happen. It went
up. But yeah, I don't believe 100 But I believe 2020 points
up,
but it went up like to 60 and then back down again. Yeah.
final clip, which is funny. Because obviously, all right, we
so this didn't work. We still have the looming war with Iran
and we're locked and loaded and what does it mean? Why is Trump
doing this?
Well, what what Trump tends to do when he says we're locked and
loaded and the Iranians are pretty smart. They've watched
Trump over the years, just like I did in New York, and we know
that he actually believes what he says he built, he built
Wallman Memorial Park ice skating rink, a built 42nd
street, he built the Trump Tower, so they're interested
more than anything else, where Is Trump going to come in? And
where would he like to build a hotel?
That's what North Korea wants to where's my Trump Hotel.
That's why I think Pompeo get rid of Bolton and Pompeo is
going to make a deal. And somewhere on the southeast and
course of North Korea, you're going to see a Trump Towers and
a Trump Hotel. Similarly, I'm not being facetious, you're
going to see Tehran, and as the Bishan. And bliss, all kinds of
Trump Tower hotels, he's not interested in Ward never has
been never will be. But he will use force in the threat of force
in order to force you to come to the tables, but he has no
problem coming back again and again and again until he cuts
the deal. And he'll cut the deal.
I think he listens to us too much. He's getting way too many
ideas from us. There you go. Everybody. Think drones fake
drones? Well, that's, that's something you don't hear on the
network's a scam? If you don't you don't even hear Alex Jones
anymore constantly.
But yeah, it makes sense. And then have, you know, you hear
pens at this hour. So that makes a lot of sense. It's pen sense.
It makes so much sense for him to also need to be echoing this
and making kind of war talk when they have no intention
whatsoever. And everyone I know who has family in Iran has or is
born in Iran lived in Iran. They all say these molars in the
Americans, they always work together. We're not really
worried. I mean, it sucks. They got a lot of problems. But
they're never really worried about America coming in and
wiping them out. They feel there's too much collusion.
Too much collusion. Could be Yeah, I'm not saying this. I'm
not saying that anything said there was beyond the realm of
possibility.
Right? Exactly.
What else we got
here? Oh, man, there's well Trudeau This is did you see
Trudeau in blackface? Yes, I got the clips. I
got everything. Oh, good because I got it. I got the photo, but I
never got the clip. Oh, yeah,
I got well, here's what I'm gonna do. I have a I still have
the clip as brought to us by Fox News, which I think is
important. And then because this is all part of kind of cancelled
culture stuff. At least they're trying to cancel Trudeau out
with this thank you Time Magazine. And here so then I
have his actual statement. But here's the here's the hyperbole.
Off the top. We should note the Canadian Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau admits the picture is him it shows Trudeau wearing
brown makeup on his face, neck and hands during a party in
2001. At the time, the 29 year old was teaching in a private
school called West Point Grey Academy. The school was holding
an Arabian Nights themed gala and Trudeau was dressed up as a
character from Aladdin complete with robes headdress and brown
skin. The party was attended by faculty, administrators and
parents and the photo was given to time formerly Time Magazine
by a Vancouver businessman who was part of the West Point Grey
community and the man said it's important the public see the
picture. This is not a good start to the Prime Minister's
reelection campaign because Trudeau was already involved in
a scandal over whether he pressured his then Attorney
General to drop corruption charges against a large and
powerful Canadian engineering firm. It also may not sit well
with voters considering Trudeau has called himself a champion of
minority groups and Canada's many cultures. He's speaking
right now. He was asked if he'll resign he did not answer the
question. He has said that he did this before this picture was
not the first time he acknowledges that a ticket for
not thinking was racist, but now he knows that it was racist.
Let's listen to him.
On something like this Mr. Trudeau is that the only time in
your life you've ever done something like that?
When I was in high school, I dressed up at a talent show and
saying makeup on
sang Dale, for those who are too young Dale is also known as the
Banana Boat Song made famous by Harry Belafonte here we go here
we go.
There we go, did ya Oh
This is often done by big black women with lots of bananas all
over the place. And I think I've seen some old school actresses
dress up and do this. I think Lucille Ball might have even
done it once or twice a night. Here now, okay, so that's really
since socialise and, and you know this is 20 gets
to be the funniest thing in the news this week.
It's funny because he's such a social justice warrior.
Yeah, that's why it's funny. Exactly,
but but I will give him props for just explaining what
happened here. Here's his his full statement a little calmer
and not so shouty and I think better audio to
2001 When I was a teacher in Vancouver, I attended an event
of Year Gala, where the theme was Arabian Nights, dressed up
in an Aladdin costume and put makeup on. I shouldn't have
done. I should have known better, but I didn't. And I'm
really sorry. This would you have passed called for men to
step down? I think they're people who've made mistakes in
in this life and you make decisions based on what they
actually do what they did. And on a case by case basis, I think
I deeply regret that we that I did that. I should have known
better. But I didn't think
so what else can you do? I'm sorry. And that's what he's
doing. However, if they let him get off, which of course he
will. Then there's another chink in the armour. Did I say chink a
chink in the armour that you know of this whole social
justice warrior Kancil culture movement, which, thank goodness,
we're seeing some resistance. We typically don't do showbusiness
things. But I think that seeing is we're slowly being scrubbed
away from Twitter. For probably similar reasons, including not
having a checkmark, the SNL comedian scandal was just
fabulous.
And tonight a dramatic reverse dramatic action for a comic who
by the way, this is NBC reporting on NBC Gotta love that
by just
been hired by Saturday Night Live Now fired over a racist and
homophobic remarks here Stephanie Gasc
Saturday Night Live.
Tonight comedian Shane Gillis is out of a job. He's offered to
join Saturday Night Live rescinded after days of backlash
over racist and homophobic slurs he used during a podcast damn
Chinatown's not the video surface just after it was
announced Gillis we're joined the SNL cast, along with the
show's first comedian of East Asian descent. Now a
spokesperson for Show creator and producer Lorne Michaels
releasing this statement, writing in part, we hired Jane
on the strength of his talent as a comedian and his impressive
audition for SNL. We were not aware of his prior remarks that
have surfaced over the past few days. The language used is
offensive, hurtful, and unacceptable. 31 year old
Gillis, who made a name for himself and stand up from New
York to LA responding tonight. I'm a comedian who was funny
enough to get SNL that can't be taken away. I understand it
would be too much of a distraction. I respect the
decision they made. I'm honestly grateful for the opportunity.
The coveted job on SNL which appears on NBC network has
launched comedians careers for decades. Tonight one comedian
watch the chance slipped through his fingers. Stephanie Goss, NBC
News New York
no no I watched the video it's a podcast and it was a it was a
the hidden episode or some bullshit like that. And that
talked about Chinese restaurants and and making fun of accents
which nothing that we don't do is as HoH you know exactly about
Chinese and Asians it was it was guffaw haha marginally funny I'm
sure I've never seen this show I'm sure that they make fun of
everybody as we often do. And it's always surprising that when
we make fun of everyone and then we'll hit someone will get bent
out of shape you never hear from him but well my wife is this are
my brothers this are and people forget that. You know, you're
supposed to be able to offend equally. Luckily, I'm seeing
comedians push back and Bill Burr would have to have you seen
his new special
Yes, I have. I thought it was pretty good. Well, I thought it
was it wasn't a one sit down word like the Chappelle Show
where you just start watching you couldn't stop but it was it
was in the state it was kind of like as I like Bill Burr I think
is hilarious guys very down to earth kind of quarter borderline
right winger. And He is funny. He's extremely funny. But I hate
to say it, but compared to the Chappelle came out pretty nice
to each other. I agree. It was kind of the it was second tier.
Well it was I liked it was good. What I thought
was interesting about that specials he taped to the Royal
Albert Hall in front of mainly British audience was
fascinating. Yes. And the ship translated a lot of it
translate. It was good. I was like crew man. Well, he also
won a burrs bits sticks is that he will do some extremely, uh,
he'll do something very offensive to the point where the
audience just freezes. Yeah. Yeah. And then he uses that
Johnny Carson as a comic used to told us kind of thing, too. He
loved to do these bomb gags. And then he would work on that. And
he gets the artists to freeze and then he will go, he'll give
the audience grief. And he does it is burrows really, really
adept at this particular Gambit. And I've never seen anyone any
better at it, actually. But yeah, I saw it. I liked it.
And so David Spade has a show lights out. I think I told you
you should probably give that a watch. I
have been trying to catch it. It's Sunday at 830. And yeah,
I just put it on the on the DVR. Otherwise the network? Yeah, I
just put it on the DVR because it's going to believe it or not,
it's on too late for me. I have to be in bed. And David Spade
was on SNL. And he had Jim Jefferies on with Jim Jeffers
from Australia, I think and Bill Burr. I'll just play this just
because they're doing it. They're responding publicly. And
that at the very least is needed.
But this is just cancelled culture, the question of being
fired. It's just a couple of things back in his history.
We're gonna go through everyone's history. Are we going
to get rid of every sketch that SNL has done that involves race?
Like I remember John Belushi dressing as an Asian man with a
samurai sword? That was the whole sketch? Or maybe we could
have read what was it? Mike Meyers used to buy a Japanese
host like this. And if they got the question wrong, they had to
cut their hand off.
Did they go back and also try to look at good things that the
person might have done? Are they just looking for the bad stuff
as you just scroll through help cat out of a tree? That's not
it? Grandmother walk across the street. That's not it. You know,
I got something on a podcast. There it is. Yeah. Do that. You
could honestly do that to anybody. So I don't get it. And
then I don't get if you say something like that. You can't
work in a sketch show. But
like it's okay, from what he can work at a lumberyard. He's
certainly going to meet more agents there, right. So now
let's it's a joke about our SNL. It's not hiring agents. I'm in
trouble.
We're not running for office. When
is this going to?
Millennials, you're a bunch of rats.
Exactly.
bunch of rats. Now the thing that never comes up is, you
know, why did SNL fire him? And we know the answer. No agenda
nation knows the answers, because they don't want to
launch their new season with this kind of controversy that
the advertisers won't like that's the bottom line. I'm sure
that every comedian on SNL is like, well, all right, you know
exactly what you said they had entire bits about this in the in
the past. Yeah. Good point there, racist bits, all kinds of
things. What the thing is that the people who do this is
they're very successful. Okay, you know, it's when I went to
Iraq, in 2003, with the Dutch Marines, and we walked around
different towns, and, you know, and then I've meet people and,
you know, it's kind of a, you know, it's like a UFO. You know,
it's, you get to meet culture and the peoples Okay, fine.
Meanwhile, I'm with 20. Guys in tank, so it's pretty safe for
old Adam. And I think it was the commander of the unit said, Mia,
what really fueled a lot of what's going on here, because
it's very confusing place. Certainly 2003 is actually going
back to the first Gulf where we had the Scud missiles. Remember
the Scuds hos got missiles. And these things were big and bulky.
And sometimes he just crashed in the ground and just stuck there
like wild broke up in flight like wily coyote had had shut it
off. And it didn't, didn't explode on impact, all kinds of
weird stuff. We said, What was so fantastic was the feedback
loop. If these guys would light off a Scud run back to their, to
their hut with their satellite dish and watch Wolf Blitzer
report on it on CNN. This is kind of what we're seeing here.
It's like, let's all Let's all jump on this. Let's go
completely crazy. And and then they'll get cancelled, and they
think that they have this power. But it's really the advertisers
that hold the power and, you know, those things can change
over time.
Do you want to say something?
No, I was just thinking that yeah, you're correct. Yeah, yep.
Adams, right.
It's, but it's this feedback loops, you know you and by the
way, it's like a pressure cooker. You know, where's
everyone's so, right kinda impeach Trump Trump forever, and
we're trying to blow the valve open. And all of a sudden,
there's a little teeny valve over there. Cavanaugh spew the
steam out the little Cavanaugh hole, which lasted for exactly
24 hours. It was coming back. Kevin was coming back after this
book has been credited after it's been discredited. Yeah.
What you got?
I don't have any clips. I thought you knew Jimmy. They're
going after him again.
Yeah, but no, but they went after him. And the hope you
probably haven't followed this. So the New York Times published
something, and it was from a book and they omitted the fact
that the person they were talking about didn't remember
the whole incident. And then the two journalists who wrote this,
who worked for the New York Times, it was a PR piece for
their book said, well, in the editing process in the rush to
get the paper out. Somehow they inadvertently removed the part
that the witness couldn't remember any of this, this whole
premise that we're talking about. So I think it's kind of
filled in. It's a dud,
I don't think I don't think that's always everything is a
dud. Right. But so they're not
really doing much else now. It's just a dud world. But yeah, this
and, and this is going to be a lot more cancelling before some
of this ends. But I love hearing you know, Chappelle and Bill
Burr, and other people just pushing back against it come on.
Well, they're on their own. I mean, they're on on these
specials that don't have any worry if there's no worry about
advertisers on Netflix. But then there's no worry. Worry about
advertisers on Amazon. And Amazon actually has put on a one
of these little stand ups, they're starting to do stand up
comedy. They got a girl who is one of the social justice
warriors, pushing back the other way on Amazon. Get get the
details on this woman. Hey, you notice that she doesn't sound
funny,
you notice that they're tried? Oh, this is a good point. Thank
you. So when it's an advertiser based medium, you're very quick
to get cancelled when it's not advertiser based. Turns out that
people really aren't that motivated. So I did see calls
for I'm constantly my Netflix subscription. Of course, no one
does is bullcrap. And I really cancelling that. So you see that
the model, it's like our model. Wow. It is like our model.
That's why we haven't been cancelled yet.
We haven't been cancelled, because we don't care. And
with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the
morning to you the man who put the seat in Kancil culture
twice, John C. C. Dvorak.
NMRT. New Mr. Adam curry. Also in the morning they all the
ships in the sea boots on the ground, feed the air subs in the
water, and all the Dames and nights out there.

hello, trolls. It's good to have you guys here. And there's
always something going on there. You can listen to the live
stream, which is 24/7 with hundreds of shows and episodes
to listen to. Also a big in the morning to our artists for
episode 1173. We titled that the vinyl vote. And John Fletcher
Fletcher Fletcher is back. He gave us the danger blowhole sign
which was simply just the best. I don't think we had any
argument did we?
Well, we had an argument about Yeah, we did. But it was there
was not this because the no one caught anything really good. And
we went to a we didn't seize the best, which was simple.
Yeah, we hadn't we had an argument with the non existent
people who had not delivered anything good. Is that what
you're saying?
I sent him like that. I remember the moment and it was like I
would say that this is like no offence to Fletcher. He knows of
course we love him course. But we settled.
Well, we didn't go into the into the evergreens. Let's put it
that way. That's always good. It's always a good start. Yes, a
plus, if you don't go into the evergreens. This is our value
for value network, where we're honest, and we love everyone who
participates in it. We have Fletcher who does all kinds of
stuff for us. We have and we just have so many people
involved in this programme and you're all producers and just
like Hollywood, we like to thank the producers who came in with
financial support of the show, particularly in the higher
numbers we'd like to call them and we'd like to honour them
with their executor Producer ship and Associate Executive
Producer she
ladies and gentleman I present the Grand Duke of the Pacific
Northwest says Wayne melon song.
That's right, right up top.
Yes And curiously, is right on top. And the only executive
producer we did light show for some reason, while I think is
because of the Palindrome, curse,
the curse of the Talon drum,
blame everything on that now. Yeah, so Dwayne Melanson and
Tigard Oregon, are Tigard are tight to guide on no 333 33 ITM
gence. I'll be attending Oregon local 33 meetup this Friday in
Wilsonville. Only a handful. You see, I wanted to squirrel burger
places still there. Only a handful of it was a hamburger
place. And it had the Pacific Northwest hamburgers signature
hamburger. If anyone hasn't had one they used to have them at
Burger master which I think is folded. And other burger places
where it's a it's a cheeseburger with an egg on it. Oh no, no,
no. I
do like the idea of of a squirrel burger though. I think
that could get legs.
It's called squirrel burger but as beef
died like I try all these squirrel. Yeah. burgoo is like
rabbit. It's like cat tastes a bit like cat. It's not that my
cat
probably is pretty good at it. I've had only a handful of RSVPs
so far, but hoping to see many nights dame's in one of these as
possible to value you to bring to our community is immense.
Thank you for your courage jingle. The more you know,
please, the more you know, in the morning
you've got karma. Beautiful.
And now I am remiss. I have a look up our next I have a you
may have his email. I do I have it. Okay, good. Well, let me
just read his name is his vitals. Okay, Dave. Sir de Fuca
is odo, who is actually a Baron $239.19. And you have his email.
Yeah. And just as I said that, it popped off the screen. Give
me a second to retrieve it again. Here we go. Dear Jeeves,
and Wooster. I bid you in the morning and closes my donation
of $239.19. In recognition of Saudi Arabian National Day, on
the 23rd of September,
so may data celebration.
Well, the 23rd is right around the corner. Hence 23919. Given
events of late we are hoping they will issue any further
fireworks. I'm getting a bit early when I'm travelling this
weekend didn't want to miss the chance, John, feel free to use
the amount as yet another one of your fabulously effective
donation gimmicks.
I'm sure. I'm sure I'll turn on me eventually.
As he says, I'm sure it'll be a smashing success because well,
Saudi Arabia, we have a long weekend for the holiday. So I'm
headed to kick around Ethiopia for you for a few days. Wow. A
cheap and short flight and a surprisingly easy online visa
application process should be a fun trip about 40 degrees
cooler. Where's that sweater I pack? Finally, this amount? Oh,
this amount levels me up to URL. We need to put them on the list.
I will for now keep my current holdings of America's heartland
and Saudi Arabia. However, an ulterior motive of my trip this
weekend is to meet with some more influential Uber drivers to
discuss Ethiopia's entry into my sphere of influence. I shall
keep you posted. And he says I didn't see this. Okay, clip
request is the ISO of the guy yammering in Arabic From show
1173 Which for our purposes, we will assume is wishing the world
a happy Saudi Arabia day, followed by a little girl yay.
And what is the last thing and travel goat karma while we
happen to be able to do that on the fly? It probably means
you've got
karma, man, thank
you very much, sir de Fuca Soto. I'm going to put you on the list
right now as the URL and it's the URL of America's heartland
and Saudi Arabia.
Thank you so much.
Michael Goodell in Grosse Pointe, Michigan $231. toward

amygdala has been steadily shrinking ever since. As this is
my first donation I need to be deduced.
You've been de deuced
he wants China ask, asshole. And Job calm. Please, I choose to
start with this amount as this is my number of the number of
words I've written in my latest novel. One suggestion Adam has
expressed a need for something more contemporary than war and
peace for overly long notes and have by the way I'm the one who
uses the Warren Piece joke for these notes correct for over the
because I'm stuck with him for over the long notes of which
this one is in danger of becoming not really try saying
he or she went all Neil Steffensen on me,
Stevenson cares.
Keep up the good work. And I adopted this, Stephen because of
the basketball player. Keep up the good work. And thank you for
your courage. China is as HoH

Well, there goes my SNL gig.
There goes your SNL gig and there goes your visa. And I
rebuke I rebuke
that clip.
You rebuke that clip? I was Bukit Yeah. What does that mean?
You rebuke it?
I don't know. But is when I go to the office and they asked her
you do your response for this clip. I said, I really I have
rebuked publicly rebuked.
Alright, you know what you can do? You can say I rebuked and I
blame Adam curry.
I rebuke. And I blame Adam curry because he's no pussy. And
Daniel auslin is next on the list. $21.33 from Blaine,

agenda still remains the best podcast in the universe. Thank
you very much, Daniel
jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.
And that droid That's it. That's it for and then it drops off. By
the way for the next segment. There's no budget in the $100
range.
I got lots of long clips for today. We don't have a lot of
donation because it's mentioned
since I'm looking at the spreadsheet now how many people
do you think took part on the 919 90 and 1900 19 hours right
now we get like a triple quadruple Palindrome honey
people give
me Why don't we tease that so people will stay listening to
find out how many really was okay. I did want to mention
because I did open up the spreadsheet today. And I always
love looking at people who know they're not going to mention but
they put notes in and so I can't mention his name. But he he's a
consistent four cent donor from Anthem Arizona and he says only
14 weeks to knighthood. So I don't know how many times you
need to donate force. four cents
he's just bull crap. Thank you. I don't any four cents is like
donating nothing because PayPal just takes it all.
That's correct. Thank you to our soul to be Earl to be Arild. The
executive producer offered this show and our Associate Executive
Producers these are the credits that are exactly the same as in
Hollywood and will vouch for if anyone ever questions that and
they are valuable there were credits or recognise that John
said we'll be thanking more people in a very few but more
people in our second half and please remember us for Sunday
vorak.org/and a you know
so much now you know about the cancelled culture. You know why
it's happening?
Our formula is this. We go out. We get people in the mouth
probably mean Allahu Taala
actually means something like God is loving. Isn't that what
it is? The Yemeni thing.
I forgot
a whole bunch of people answered us.
I know. I don't remember the exact translation was something
forgot.
It was your question.
I know I've just sorry that somehow I it was like it was it
was kind of boring to be honest about Okay.
I got a couple of notes from the former New York banker. Ah, and
I wanted to know if you guys had discussed this over at the door,
I Horowitz unplugged that. The Fed started something they
hadn't done in about 10 years since the great recession. And
they started injecting money into the system. As the
overnight lending rates between banks spiked at one point there
was a bid for 10%. And this is this is very similar to what
happened in the 2007 2008 crisis. And they've already
pumped in 56 billion they think though they can go up to 73
billion, we can probably just double that who they I'm sure
these guys are they they talk a big game, they do all kinds of
stuff. Did you guys talk about this injection or
not, but this particular thing?
And now do you know what this means? Do you understand this? I
mean, I completely, this is banker stuff, the overnight
repo rate as it's known, which is what banks and other
financial players charge each other to lend cash in exchange
for super safe bonds should be close to 2%. But it's shot up
almost as high as 10%. On Tuesday, one of the underlying
causes of this scarcity of reserves compared with the
amount of treasury bonds in the market that has made banks less
willing to lend to each other, even in exchange for safe
government bonds to settle markets down. This is from the
Wall Street Journal, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York has
dipped into this market conducting three auctions this
week where banks could swap treasuries for new reserves. So
the banker sent me this note when it happened. I guess he
sent it to me on Wednesday, it happened Tuesday in the
overnight. And I of course, what does it mean? And this follows
along perfectly with now with what he told us before. Do you
remember he talked about Goldman Sachs maybe being the next bank
to go out of business? Yeah. So here's what he wrote me. This is
additional capital requirements that have been put in since the
crisis, which make it harder to borrow overnight that's
corroborated that there's there's more kind of Sarbanes
Oxley type rules, and they have to have a certain amount of
money on hand since the crisis, and I think they might have
tightened down a little bit or started gambling, the banks are
really doing this. So to Kenya bankers has additional capital
requirements are put in since the crisis make it hard to
borrow overnight where huge amounts of money sits. Like all
other big banks, central bank level borrowing is no real
credit risk here. Just another way the Fed is needed to make
things work smoothly. Good for big US banks, bad for trading
houses, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, foreign banks and large
investors. When the Fed needs to step in, there's always a loser.
So this could be the Goldman Sachs moment. It's kind of like
Lehman and Bear Stearns 10 years ago. Well,
Goldman Sachs should have been amongst that group 10 years ago,
according to most people, especially the ones that worked
at Lehman. So as possible, I mean, maybe maybe not. It's hard
to predict Gera if you could predict this stuff. So well, you
would be you wouldn't be talking to anybody. You just be.
Maybe your castles. Maybe he's just trying to share the wealth.
John, you're so sceptical.
They're either that are trying to manipulate you and the
market.
Yeah, I'm going short Goldman everybody. Hey, dude, I'm a
podcaster Give me a break.
podcasts or podcasters revolt. Podcast podcasters in black
face.
podcast is in black face. I like it. Like
it'd be a good podcast, but she was just audio
Yes, I'm wearing my Aladdin outfit. What are you wearing?
John in your podcast?
Stephen Fetchit pod
casters in black P IBF. podcasters in blackface. Nice.
Is that's a that's a very good idea for a show. I think I'll
start another one. That's smart to Pizza podcast. Exactly.
Okay, well, anyway, let's go on to the little politics. We're
done with it. Oh, yes.
Let's do some political night.
I collected a bunch of Biden gaffes.
Yes. It's kind of it's kind of your beat.
Well, I've got a couple of them that are interesting. And then
one I think is Miss has been he's been missed. It's been
misapplied to Biden, I think they're giving him his bum rap.
But I have a I have the corn pop story. Which is that idiotic
story that he told, I think a couple of years ago. It's
great. It's great. It's a great story.
It's a crappy story. But it was a and Biden drops like sometimes
entire sentences. The way Ron Paul used to do when Ron Paul be
talking about something a bit dented, did you buddy, he has
some little things in the number that that buddy, you'd have a
little, little auctioneering going on in the middle of this
thing and You're, you're expected to know what he's
supposed to be saying. But Biden does that. And here he is.
Here's the corn to start with this this because this I don't
know if he's bullcrap story or not. They did. Somebody did some
research.
You don't know if it's a bowl craft store.
I learned a lot. On that one, I learned that it makes a
difference. This was the diving board area. And I was
one of the things you need to do, we need to set it up by
saying for those who didn't see it, that he's in a black
community he's talking about when he was a lifeguard at this.
In this main public pool, public pool, mainly used by black kids.
I think that's his point. And he's surrounded by black people.
I learned a lot. And I learned that it makes a difference. This
was the diving board area. And I was one of the guards. And there
were not a threat as a three metre board. And you fell off
sideways. You landed on the damp the darn cement over there. And
current pop was a bad dude. And he ran a bunch of bad boys. And
back whoa,
I'm surprised no one called them out on that racism called Black
men boys. Come on Joe,
in current pop was a bad dude. And he ran a bunch of bad boys.
And I did yeah, he and back in those days and shot things have
changed. One of the things had to use if you use POM aid in
your hair, you had to wear a baby cap. And so until he's up
on the board when list matching Hey Esther, you off the board,
I'll come up and drag you off. Keep matching.
I mean, this is being completely glossed over calling a black man
Esther Williams has got to be the most racist thing I've
heard. It's funny, but it's got to be racist. Can you say that
today? Esther Williams? I don't think so.
I don't think so. Either
way he came off and he said I'll meet you outside my car. This
was mostly these were all public housing behind it. My car there
was a gate on here. I parked my car outside the gate. Yeah, the
star gate and I said I'll be waiting for two or three guys
and straight razors. Not a joke. There's a guy named mouse the
only white guy and he did all the pools. He was the mechanic
and I said What am I gonna do he said come down here in the
basement where mechanics where all the pool filter is you know
the chain used to be a chain that went across the deep end
and he cut off his six foot left the chain you fold up as you
walk out there was
a chain that went across the deep end those are plastic like
the plastic red and white chain is that what he got he's talking
about the chain in the pool it's not it's not it
maybe it was a big heavy metal chain back in the day no
matter where mechanics were where all the pool filter is.
You know the chain used to be a chain went across the deep end
and he cut off his six foot left the chain you fold up he said
you walk out he cut it off with scissors with that chain and you
want that car and say you may cut me man but I'm gonna wrap
this chain around your head. I said you kidding me? He said no
if you don't don't come back and he was right. So I walked out
with the chain and I walked up to my car and that's that those
days used to measure the street race you'd bang them on the curb
getting rusty put them in the rain barrel getting rusty and I
looked at him, but I was smart. Then I said first of all I said
when I tell you get off the board and get off the board not
kick you out again but I shouldn't have called you Esther
Williams I apologise for that. I apologise but I know that polish
is gonna work. He said you apologised to me. I said I
apologise for that not for throwing out but apologise for
what I said. He said okay closure straight razor my heart
began to beat again
why what was the point straight razors are dangerous and
extremely sharp. Why would you want them rusty? And why would
you leave them in a in a bucket or whatever he said to get them
all rusty and scraped up? Because they're not going to be
what? There's nothing like a straight razor if you're going
to cut someone you don't want to so do a mid one and make it
dull. What's the point and use any old knife?
I think he's what's the point of that?
Well, back in the day, of course bad bad Leroy Brown, baddest man
in the whole damn town. He had a rusty razor in his shoe. And I
think Joe was just had that in his head. Like what can I do and
raise it and you know, you'd rusty razor shave his belly with
a rusty razor? I don't know. It causes infection. The whole
store. Dairy is nuts. Peon. Well, here
he is. This is the more typical this was the gaff To the week,
and everybody. And I don't know what he was trying to say, but
his numbers are way off. This is Biden, on the 720 million women,
you get a tax break for racehorse, why in God's name?
Couldn't we provide a $8,000 tax credit for everybody who has
childcare costs? It would put, it would put 720 million back
million women back in the workforce, it would increase the
GDP to sound like a OneCare. By about eight tenths of 1%. It
would grow the economy.
I don't know what happened there. I really don't we of
course have about 325 million people in America.
Yeah, in these United States.
Can't be 720 million women. Maybe Maybe this 120 is the one
is the seven because some people draw draw it funny.
Oh, you mean he was reading or he read it?
He wasn't reading that I know of he was just chatting. But I
think admin is sometimes in your head, especially if you read
something off of a prompt or maybe saw the number in his head
is 720. I don't know. It was really stupid. But now I'm going
to be balanced here on the pods show pod show and the podcast.
With this one, the African gap which I'm going to say that they
were this was they were condemning Biden for answering a
question and then saying that Ghana was in Africa. And if we
listen carefully, you can see that Biden would Biden said is
not really inaccurate.
Thank you for being here, Mr. Vice President. Growing up as a
child in Guyana, my grandfather used to tell the stories that
God made the United States. He told us about the wonders and
freedoms in this country. I live my life striving to become an
American citizen, and I'm proud to have achieved that goal. As
President, what will you do? The future grandfathers will
continue to share their stories of our great nation.
I've been to Ghana, I've done all through Africa.
And understand what's wrong. Again, is in South America. Oh,
I see what you're saying. But he's been to Africa. No,
he says I've been to Ghana. Oh, I did did not hear this guy was
talking about
Korea on Well, to be honest, if that's what he meant, I
pronounced Deanna What did he say?
Thank you for being here. Mr. Vice President. Growing up as a
child in Guyana, my grandfather.
Well, he's from Guyana,
or whatever he said. I think it's I would pronounce the
Guiana. But I
pronounced it but he says Joe here local buddy could easily be
heard. Hey, if you're thinking you're thinking those black guy
must be from Ghana. He said Ghana. I've been to Ghana. I've
been all over Africa. It's just he just Miss Mustard. i This is
not a true Biden gaffe, this should be off the list and her
head is gone. Here it is.
I've been to Ghana. I've done all three.
Wow. You know, he says Ghana but it almost sounds a bit like
Ghana was listen again.
I've been to Ghana. Now he says God
he says God he just misunderstood it.
Yeah. So this is not a legit, this is a non This is an
illegitimate Biden Gaff. Please take it off your list
immediately. Like all those who are collecting these as am I
you're collecting the good gas? Is that what you're doing?
Only real gaffes, only
real ones. Excellent.
Anyway, that's my Biden segment.
That's good. I liked it. Well, let's talk about the green new
deal for a second because tomorrow and many people will be
listening to this tomorrow. So when we said yesterday, you're
going to hear a lot about the kids on strike led by Greta
Thune Moore who is I
have I can't have the perfect lead in for this if you want to
talk about it. We may have similar but what you got I will
you don't I doubt it because you don't have it from democracy.
No, I don't. This is climate news one and two, which Lee it
leads into the strike that you're going to discuss. But but
apparently Amy who asked specifically asked Thun Berg to
how to pronounce her name. Yeah. And you can come close to
it so gratis you mean
suddenly, she now call it bouquet and she asked her twice.
We had those clips. She now calls her Greta Thune Berry
and climate news. A new study warns the global average
temperature could rise by as much as seven degrees Celsius or
12 and a half degrees Fahrenheit above pre industrial levels by
the end of the century unless nations move rapidly to slash
greenhouse gas emissions. The stark warning comes as world
leaders are preparing to gather at the United Nations
Headquarters in New York on Monday for the climate action
Summit. UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said Tuesday
the world is losing the race to avert catastrophe.
July was the hottest month. However, this five years will be
the hottest five years in record, we see the rising level
of the ocean that's taking place the highest concentrations ever
of co2 in the atmosphere to go back three to 5 million years to
get the same levels of co2 and that time water level was 10 to
20 metres higher than what it is today. So we are really dealing
with a very dramatic threat not only to the future of the
planet, but to the planet.
Today in Washington, DC Youth Climate Leaders called out
lawmakers Tuesday for failing to act urgently to prevent a
climate catastrophe 16 year old Swedish climate activist school
strike leader exempted tune Barry who was invited by
Democrats to a meeting of the Senate climate crisis force she
didn't
even get Greta right it's great to be at the hall.
Official pronunciation Swedish climate activist school strike
leader Greta tune berry
in giddy okay, I can do this. Now. You have to theme very and
people go to Tim Leary, who
was invited by Democrats to a meeting of the Senate climate
crisis Task Force told the gathering quote, don't invite us
here to tell us how inspiring we are without doing anything about
it. She added I know you're trying but just not hard enough.
Sorry. She said.
Yeah,
this is a this is a big move. Everybody's in on it. NBC. I
don't know if you saw their climate confessions.
They put up a website I contributed. You did?
Well, it's basically Twitter in squares. I mean, I don't know
what's great about this is it's
pretty funny if you read them. Yeah, it's sort of saying I love
meat.
I have my own car. Because I think that public transit is
horrible and unreliable. I compost at home but not at work.
I use hate too much plastic. I live in South Carolina, so we
don't have the options to buy products and specialty stores. I
bought a year's worth of freeze dried food in case of emergency,
I'll probably never eat it before I die so wasteful. This
is very funny
that the whole thing is hilarious. And it's like we
should probably have a link in the show notes
to it. I got it. I gotta leave it there.
Never room to write an essay. It's like 140 characters.
I use a lot of cute tips. I can't find a better alternative.
I'm eating bacon with breakfast this morning. And I'll have it
again tomorrow. So this is why Twitter censor this is why twit
Twitter shadow bans. This is not what NBC wants. No, this is not
what they want. But this is 150 countries, apparently. Well, I
know sorry. Part two leads you into what you're gonna do. Okay,
good
here. 15 year old Kalin Benson of Maryland called on students
and workers to join a massive series of climate strikes plan
for Friday,
and you have to be involved. And that means you adults as well,
you are the ones currently in power. We don't have time to
wait till my generation takes over. It's you that have to act,
we need you to listen to the scientists that are showing us
that climate change is here and climate change is human caused
stop burning fossil fuels, please, for my generation,
organisers predict Friday's global climate strike will be
some of the largest climate protests in US history. With
actions planned and over 800 sites in all 50 states more
actions are planned worldwide.
This is I have a big problem with this. New York, of course,
is ground zero for this. That's where all the New World Order is
assembling for the United Nations Global Assembly. And
that's, you know, it's no coincidence. This is all pre
planned. Create a team ready, you know, took a little sailboat
and she's I guess she's been in the states the whole time. And
all public schools in New York, are going to go on strike, which
of course is the opposite of what the word strike means. It's
not a strike if the school says Okay, let's go let's go to and
they could have done it after school, perhaps. But no. So it's
not really a strike. All parents strike
and in any, any sense of any meaning of any definition. Oh,
at all. All parents have to sign an approval that their child is
going and you know that half of these parents are afraid to say
no, they don't want their kids singled out. And what are they
doing? They're holding up signs saying you're not doing
anything, which of course politicians aren't doing
anything except trying to scam money out of this, and you're
terrorising these children. I haven't. Why not? Instead of
going on strike We all won't use our phones for 48 hours. That
would probably that would save in some electricity. How about
going cleaning up the beaches, or we're sweeping the streets or
doing anything except just holding prefab signs. Just like
Communist China where the party put kids out to protest. It's an
old it's not this is nothing new you put.
So she I want to do a quick mention. I'm, as this
progresses, especially with Greta Thune berry get this. And
that girl who just gave a little speech to 15 year old and she's
in tears in her, you know, she's just almost crying. This reminds
me of the Communist Youth party that she used Hitler Youth Yes,
it brainwash kids, easy to brainwash, you got him to the
point now where they want to vote at the age of eight. It's
just like this. This is, I'm wondering if this is one not one
great big monster social experiment to see how far you
can go outside of government. In other words, it's not the United
States that's doing this like it was Hitler or like it was the
Stalin, the creating this dis movement of youth, but just the
independence of Soros, let's say, how far can you go? How far
can you get with this, especially if everybody's kind
of playing the game, to have a bunch of brainwash kids who are
really borderline morons at this point,
they are in fact, sorters yoga, and that's what they are. You're
good. So like it. So they had a panel on the hill. And they
brought in a bunch of kids. And this is a typical of a report
about this, this hearing and then we'll listen to who these
kids really are. So here's your teen climate activist, I
already have like underlying issues of like anxiety. And it's
just really hard to grow up in a world full of ifs. You know, I
don't think a lot of people in Congress understand the
conversations that are happening in everyday American high
schools in it's just like this constant, looming uncertainty
and it's this weird form of, of nihilism and, and weird. Just
fear that's, that's been existing in my generation, where
kids are joking, like, what is even like, the point the world
is, is ending, what are we studying for? What are we doing?
And it's this kind of depression, it's this fear that
is not just among me or my panellists here, but but
everyone and that anxiety is something that no child should
ever have to fear.
Very convincing. And this is absolutely true. You need to add
to that, that kids are constantly being conditioned and
trained to be shot at even though the percentage that love
likelihood that that happens is quite low. The drills the
training the constant, you know, we saw the Sandy Hook parents
come out with a video today back to school, and showing you know,
kids using their backpack to stop bullets and the skateboard
to smash a window to escape. You're terrorising these
children. And yes, that's why you have these anxieties, throw
some SSRIs and antidepressants on top of them, hey, you're
slowing down a bit bam, some Adderall and that bitch and
you're going and this teen climate activist is a part of
the problem because her name is Ms. Margolin, she is Jamie
Margolin from Zero Hour, which is one of the you know, it's
just it's in the group here are partners. They got a whole
website you can donate not a nonprofit. It's a yes, it's a
political action fund. And their partners are the Sierra Club
three fifty.org The Climate Reality Project Al Gore,
Indigenous Environmental Network Women's March, youth empower the
years project the Alliance for Climate Education This is big
money Baltimore beyond plastic Better Future project
biodiversity, by by plastic bags care about climate Chesapeake
Bay Foundation. The local ambassadors climate hawks vote
Earth guardians Hip Hop Caucus, I matter. Mazhar ska talks M 40.
iMac Mother Earth project our climate voices planet for the
planet Seattle schools under two degrees centigrade schools for
climate action. I mean, it goes on and on and on. And here she
is talking like the shield that she really is how do I
even begin to convey to you what it feels like to know that
within my lifetime, the destruction that we have already
seen from the climate crisis will only get worse
doesn't sound too much like a paranoid scaredy cat kid now
does she all of a sudden like that previous clip.
What adds insult to injury is the fact that we keep getting
promised what isn't there on college applications? I keep
getting asked what do you want to be when you grew up the media
Culture businesses and the whole world tells me that I and my
whole generation will have something to look forward to
that we just don't. You're promising me lies. Everyone who
will walk up to me after this testimony saying that I have
such a bright future ahead of me, will be lying to my face. It
doesn't matter how talented we are. It doesn't matter how much
work we put in, how many dreams we have. The reality is my
generation has been committed to a planet that is collapsing. The
fact that you are staring at a panel of young people testifying
before you today, pleading for a livable Earth should not fill
you with pride. It should fill you with shame. Youth Climate
activism should not have to exist. We are exhausted because
we have tried everything. We built organisations, organised
marches and worked on political campaigns. I sued my state
government and a lawsuit called Piper versus versus the state of
Washington. Yes. Sounds
like your typical teenage college, high school kid,
doesn't it, along with
12 other plaintiffs for contributing to the climate
crisis and denying my generations constitutional
rights to life, liberty and property.
I thought it was life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Is
it life liberty and property it? Why does she say property?
Well, she maybe has a big land holdings
for contributing to the climate crisis and denying my
generations constitutional rights to life, liberty, and
property. The lawsuit is also arguing that the natural
resources of my state are protected as a right under the
Washington State Constitution, the shellfish, salmon, orcas and
all of the beautiful wildlife. Pacific Northwest home is dying
due to ocean acidification caused by the climate crisis.
And communities all over Seattle are suffering from the new
fossil fuel infrastructure being built to lock in decades more of
climate destruction into my state. My friends and I were
warned to stay inside the last two summers because our city was
shrouded in a suffocating smoke from wildfires. It gave me such
bad headaches for so long and my friends had to go to the ER Oh,
it's the future that we have to look forward to
climate change is real. It's real. It's real.
It's real.
So these are just a bunch of activists and the entire
scholastic system worldwide it appears is in on this if you
want to go protest something else tonight gonna get approval
from the school and then the audacity to keep calling it a
strike please. This is this is if the kids held up inside a
sign that said China's as hall they are they're polluting
everything that would kind of given the past but no, no, no,
no. And meanwhile, this kind of noise this kind of nonsense
terrifies children, you're hurting your children, take them
out of school, homeschool, anything but this this is
ridiculous.
Again, I'm gonna go back to the idea that the kids are part of a
larger experiment and if you look at the the documents for MK
Ultra which is a programme from the CIA, we've discussed it a
million times those supposed to be discontinued we don't know
that. But it starts by kind of frightening to making somebody
you know creating artificial PTSD by frightening somebody
tying him up beating him up you've given him electroshock
there's a lot of ways to do it, but it's possible that you can
get the same results by doing these this what we're doing
which is what you said terror making the kids worry about
getting shot so they're on edge all the time and then then then
pumping them full of this whole world is gonna blow up if we
don't do something about climate change and then as a site
control bear receptacle to becoming just MK Ultra zombies.
Yes, but then you drag a drag dragging isn't done. The other
part of that whole experience it's part of MK Ultra Yes is the
drugging is part of MK Ultra the terrorising is part of MK Ultra
the propagandising nonstop so I'm going to what is the point
why are we treating these kids in this way and what are we
trying to get out of
it? Well how about I look at it a different way I like your MK
Ultra angle I would say they took everything they learned
from MK Ultra and they're applying it says this has
nothing to do with a test its application they know it works
I I'm gonna say that by possibility but what is the what
is the long game
to steal our money and to keep their the elites money safe?
Isn't that always the end game?
That is always the end game.
All right, we need to do something light hearted here. I
need to we need to change the pace for a second.
And a light hearted
no wait until you get this. My millennial taught me something
that apparently has been all the rage for the past year and you
and I missed it.
No no mukbang Are you familiar with MK bang? I've heard the
term. Well don't look it up, because that'll ruin
looking up anything. I'm writing it down as a possible show
title.
Muk ba ng MK bang. YouTube videos have millions of views.
And it's all from South Korea.
I'm here to look at a completely new unusual trend called Mac
bang. It roughly translates as food porn, but not in the way
you'd hoped. It's more kind of like a food selfie, where users
are logging on eating lots of food to camera, and then 1000s
of other people are logging on to watch them.
So this is
there's more to this point. So we already we discussed this on
the show. I had the clip of the guy who used to eat food. You
know, he's very popular. He just eats needs like huge amounts of
food and then bitches and moans and gets sick. And this guy's
got millions of viewers. Okay, yeah, like bang. It's
Yes. And, and the keeper watches. Some did not miss this.
But well, but we didn't get the name. MK bang. And we didn't get
some other important facts. Yes, we did miss a lot of this story.
Since 2011, a peculiar trend of live streaming while eating
large quantities of food has become more and more popular in
South Korea here comes to people who participate in mock bang
have become minus celebrities in their own right. To the point
that they're referred to as broadcast jockeys, or the more
popular term, don't laugh BJs.
So they become BJs. Yeah, well,
I agree. We didn't catch BJs
the so called BJs have learned that there is such a thing as a
free lunch. This is Park Suyama, one of the country's most
popular BJs for whom Bang was a full time job. Better known as
the diva. At one point she was making up to $9,000 a month that
you have.
John, exit strategy. We can do this
$9,000 A month compared to the girls who do makeup videos is
minor.
But we can do ASMR mukbang here's an example. This is a guy
eating a pizza
we could do this
maybe you're not in but I think I need to do some McBath I
think you should do it. I think you should do it. And I watch
listen to the headline.
Vijay becomes BJ I mean could it be any better it's obvious the
promotions right there. Ready to go? Yeah.
Well, there's another dead end.
MK the number one BJ in America.
We should look at it start thinking about why it's popular
watch people eat. I think with the homeless situation on to
this is just a mockery. This is this is the elitist mockery on
wealthy people who don't really get a good meal. Rarely
I am with you. I'm totally with you. And yet, but
there's this millennial arrogance. Well, not entirely. I
don't know. I think it is. I think it's more the millennials
biaya now there's another guy that can't eat let me know Hey,
man, I'm gonna eat a big sandwich in front of you.
Well, the keeper watches this one guy on Instagram who always
it's not like a huge quantities, but he eats cookies and stuff.
And he's so into it. And it's funny to watch. It's not him
consuming an entire meal like the BJs. But there is something
about food that now it's not for me, I'm I'm not food centric at
all. And I'd be like, I'm hungry. Now. Fuck it. I'll smoke
a joint. I mean, that's who I am. But a lot of people very
very food centric. And there's something going on with this,
which is societal.
And I everything societal, yeah, but
I don't know if it's just millennials. Hi, it's Adam
curry. Everybody. I am your pjs the MK bangers ball everybody.
Oh, we got to
deal with a Korean accent
goddamn multi G blue.
Gone. I'll bring you some new. Ladies Gentlemen, please
welcome to the stage the vocal status and Mr. John C. Devorah.
He got them both DG Boom you're
brand new from new
did that way and I was stunned. You watch give me like the
Beatles.
Now normally I wouldn't play a jingle that long but it was so
good. Do you are really talented? Yeah.
Yeah. Unfortunately had the wrong key and his blues riffs it
should have been in the key of bad.
Thank you, Alison. Yes, a couple of OTG mentions. I forgot a very
important part of my report about Las Vegas. Bruno Mars we
went to see is the O G OTG. artist and I had completely
forgotten what happened. About I think is a year and a half ago
Bruno Mars started for he was the first one he was started
forbidding cell phones at his concerts. And, and we didn't
know this or I didn't think about it. And when we went to go
into the theatre, the park theatre there at the MGM there
were people. throngs of people around a cardboard box. I
thought maybe it was like some merch, some merch. Merchandise.
I haven't little bag looks like beer cosies, actually. So we
just walked right through and we went up to the metal detector
and I put myself my iPhone, my cloaked iPhone five down. The
keeper had her little clutch and she had her her iPhone in there.
And we just went through. And then we're in there. We realise
everyone's holding on to these little like bags, and they're
locked with the same mechanism similar to what you have in the
clothing store. So you can't they take the tag off. They have
to D magnetised at the end of the show.
Yes, this is by the way, I should interrupt you and
mentioned this is a thing going on in the local schools. Good.
And there's one school district here that has required the kids
to come to school, I think is San Mateo, which one of the
school districts and they show it on the news all the time.
It's a little grey bag, and they put that to put their cell phone
in there. And then they have this little blocking magnetic
locking mechanism that you just like exactly what you said. It's
like the ones in the clothes. And then you you carry that you
keep it or put it somewhere, but you can keep it bednet at the
end of the school day, you unlock it and get your phone
back now. And at first the kids all objected. I don't know why.
Because he's supposed to be in school. You're not supposed to
be on the phone. But okay. But then they said after a couple of
weeks that kids they were studying harder and they were
everyone went got into it. I said no problem. I don't have to
worry about, you know, don't worry about taking messages
while I'm in class. Yeah, it's like a big deal. I think this is
going to be a national thing. I hope so. And that's just at the
beginning of it if you if you notice it at that place, but
this is I think and it's a California thing. I believe this
will be a national trend once because who the hell wants to
teach a bunch of kids that are looking at their phone?
Well, in China, they and there's a 10 minute video, which you'll
find in the show notes. Here's about 50 seconds of it.
Teachers at this primary school in China. Know exactly when
someone isn't paying attention. These headbands measure each
student's level of concentration. The information
is then directly sent to the teachers computer and to
parents. China has big plans to become a global leader in
artificial intelligence. It has enabled a cashless economy where
people make purchases with their faces. A giant network of
surveillance cameras with facial recognition helps police monitor
citizens. Meanwhile, some schools offer glimpses of what
the future of high tech education in the country might
look like. classrooms have robots that analyse student's
health and engagement level, students wear uniforms with
shifts that track their location. There are even
surveillance cameras that monitor how often students check
their phones or yawn during classes. These gadgets have
alarmed Chinese netizens. But schools say it wasn't hard for
them getting parental consent to enrol kids into what is one of
the world's largest experiments in AI education, a programme
that's supposed to boost students grades, while also
feeding powerful algorithms China is
as HoH to the kids wear a headband that tracks their brain
activity and changes colour based upon their engagement so
the teacher can see where they're at. And they can see
from each other where they're at. And the whole thing is, you
know, if there's a reason to get rid of phones, it's because they
want to control the technology in schools. This is only
beginning the BBC. Bye Either way, are doing the most
disgusting thing I've ever heard of with children and apps and
phones. With the backing of Prince William then the prince
is brother
William, making a splash with a new app as well. The BBC
launching the app to fight cyber bullying. It was created with
help from Prince William's cyber bullying Task Force. It's called
own it, and it recognises if a child is typing something that
could be hurtful, and then ask the person to rethink what
they're about to send interesting can also identify
language suggesting the child is in trouble and encourage them to
speak with a trusted adult.
I don't know about you, but that's what we call a key
logger. It's a key logger they logging the kids keystrokes and
tracking what they're writing. Sounds Great Prince William.
This is what what could go wrong this fantastic.
That is from the BBC. It's disgust
they're idiots. That's really disgusting. You and I have
talked about the surveillance network known as the ring
doorbell. Now in this case, which is what you want is a
positive message. The ring doorbell saved the child from
allegations tonight out of North Phoenix. The mother accused of
abusing her own son and police say they have the visual
evidence to prove it. A cold marker and a boyfriend william
johnson now facing charges. Police started investigating
after markers young child showed up at school with a burn on his
hand officers later recovering 1000s of ring video clips from
inside and outside the child's home near 32nd. Street and Bell.
Police say those videos show the two adults assaulting that six
year old while police say the abuse happened because the child
struggled with reading words or sentences.
I'm so happy that ring doorbell has saved the child once again.
Some things of note, they discovered videos know they got
a warrant and got 2200 videos. The part of the report I'm
puzzled by is the videos of outside and inside the house. I
don't know what that's about. Maybe they have some other
device. Maybe they have an Amazon Alexa one of those
screens. So it just has to be a screen. So this is I think
ground zero of what these devices truly are intended for.
And as you see the cops just go and get a warrant. It's not a
problem at all. Take that shit off of your door is ridiculous.
Yeah,
well tell to the judge.
Good news. I've been to this town actually Fort Collins,
Colorado.
I've been there. Yeah, it's beautiful.
It's kind of a Colorado tech town.
But it's also kind of historic. If I recall, if I recall, well,
they finally beat out Comcast in in a this. I think this took
them a couple of years, multiple lawsuits going on since 2017.
They now offer their own one gigabit per second service, flat
rate $60 per month to every resident now the rollout is take
is going to take a little longer, of course, luckily, it's
not that they're doing like 20 homes a week. So it's gonna take
a while. Yeah, it's gonna take a while, but good on them. And you
know, and they claim net neutrality. We'll see how long
that lasts. But, you know, that's I think that's, I think
that's a positive message. I'm very happy about that. And I'm
elated about the new candidate for the ultimate OTG phone. It
has just been announced. It was announced by HMD. Global the
home of Nokia phones, they are coming out with the Nokia 2720
Flip. And the 20 to 2720. Flip is a flip phone. It's running
chi OH S which I kind of dismissed because Google made an
investment in it. And there are so they have Twitter app,
Facebook app, Google services app, but you can block all of
those in the settings. It's specifically in there to allow
you to not have those services. It's a Linux based phone. It's
you know, that's what Kayo s is. Then there are guys now who have
who have this device. I don't think it comes on the US market
for another couple of weeks. It's 4g, it's plastic. It's
cheap. It's 150 bucks. It has a web browser it can do some
email, good do some texting. It doesn't have the full keyboard,
but it does have big ass buttons to do your, your, your your
typing with and I think that I'm I'm very excited about this. I
mean I will forego With a hearing aid benefit of the life
of the cloaked iPhone five, just to get my hands on this, this is
really a smart a really smart dumb phone. And I'm very excited
about it. The Nokia 2720 Flip, which should be available in the
US, unlike the banana phone, which they never came out with a
with a device that worked for Verizon or work for T Mobile
only AT and T. So I'm excited.
And this is the new anti phone review.
Well, since it is the anti phone review, I wanted to play fair.
And I wanted to allow the guy's from nine to five Mac who I
consider to be absolute authority as in all things,
Macintosh, all things Apple all things iPhone, and they reviewed
the most important features of the new iPhone 11. There are 200
John 200 improvements, this phone you I mean, how can you
not have this phone, especially when you hear I mean, obviously
the most important improvements to the phone are upfront in the
report.
How's it going, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. In
this video we explore over 200 new guest 200 200 iOS 13
features, he don't want to miss this, be sure to like and
subscribe for more videos like this. So arguably the flagship
feature in iOS 13 is dark mode. There you go. Able from the
dark,
the number one feature of your $1,000 phone is dark mode.
That's it, that's the level that they're at now. Dark mode and
listen to the benefits of dark mode,
dark mode, dark mode can be enabled from display and
brightness just like this in dark mode allows you to use your
phone in dark environments comfortably. Oh, so what you'll
notice is that a lot of the interface gets darker.
John, in dark mode, a lot of the interface gets darker,
and that makes it so much easier to use. When you're in a dimly
lit environment. Only applications are going to be
darker. Even third party apps can join in on the fun dark
feature that we've been looking forward to for quite some time.
It's finally here in iOS 13
Yes, finally, it's here. Dark Mode is
here. You know the funny thing about this that you mentioned it
is that you're right this is this is like the big deal, which
is beyond me, but okay. And it and there was one article with
the headline once you go dark mode, you'll never go back,
which is a race which is a play on a pond. And it's like okay,
this is really you're reaching the bottom of the barrel here
for this extraordinary now I want to bring up something that
I noticed at the Berkeley bowl and then apparently they was
comedy day was last Sunday. And me me.
Me Me was in town it's the big day. Yeah, it's the big thing
they volunteer and
Nick were there the beer there the whole beer contingent
Lagunitas serving 1000s of beers, the three of them and but
I saw it at Berkeley Bill and I didn't think much of but
apparently they saw this happen quite a bit at the Comedy day as
a selling beer. And that is the guy I'm watching the guys in
front of me is this kind of a skinny millennial classic,
really, really skinny with a T shirt on and make him look even
more skinny and identity and a bun man bun and a kind of a
scraggly beard. And he's checking out and he takes his
hand with his with his Apple Watch on it. And he clenches his
fist. And this is exactly the way you're supposed to do this.
Because they were seeing this exact same thing at the Beer
Fest or at the Comedy they they clenches his fist and then and
then it kind of got his hand and is a fist in the air like he's
protesting some. And then he lowers it down to the Apple
Watch down into the the RFID reader or whatever it is that
these things have now these certain terminals, and it beep
beep The music paid for it goes down he goes. And then he holds
his fist up and goes Yeah.
And now he did it.
Dark Mode. Some believable. Yeah, this
is very sad. By the way,
we're seeing the exact same thing with the exact same way.
Everyone did the same thing. Yeah. clenched fist. You're
paying for beer.
Oh my goodness, by the way for the trolls and for people
listening. The concept of OTG is not getting some stripped down.
You know Android, the point is to have no notifications to have
to be able to communicate, short messages text message mainly to
be able to call someone and in great necessity. And I only have
one example. Is it Saturday A we're out and about, we're doing
stuff, I get a text from John it says newsletter and you know, we
have a whole process for this. And I can't have the man waiting
so long for me to proofread or whatever. And so then it'll take
10 minutes, but I can get my email, I can open up the
document and I can do some rudimentary copy paste if
there's something that needs to be changed. The point is, you
don't want distraction. You want a long battery life, no
distraction, but you're in communication. And of course,
you want a Baofeng $25 Ham radio, because that's what the
future is for us. But this Yeah, the Apple cult
is, I don't know that.
When you see a consumer do that, you've got to be really happy as
a Tom Collins guy. Like when people have a real reaction like
yeah, pay with Apple Pay. Yeah, I mean that you want it you just
gotta love that. But that child is clearly lost.
Yeah, I was saying that the the idea of holding a clenched fist
and then paying like, you're some sort of Superman, Dick
trace, or whatever you think you are. It's just, it's, it's
gross. It's just kind of disgusting.
Even though when we were kids, we all desperately wanted the
Dick Tracy wristwatch to a radio. And now and now it's
here, it's better than ever, and just get it off of me. I don't
want that. Just get it out of my life get away from me.
It's got to be so easy to design some sort of a hack that can
pull your data off your watch. If you're walking around and
meet us out in the open. Yeah, you should be able to bump into
somebody with a little reader that can
think that's possible terminal, why not? Well, my ham radio now
comes in
dark mode. Dark mode.
And I have a some interesting news about the unhoused
situation, which is not just San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle,
Austin or New York, Portland, it is everywhere in the United
States. But before we go there, let's listen to some
motivational speech from ksi. Los Angeles, the big 50,000
Watts is the John and Ken show.
Now we begin with the Chris and Carlo from KSI news. Who has an
interesting story from the LA County Board of Supervisors,
they want to find a way to get more homeless people to vote.
Let's get Chris on Prince.
Hey, how's it going? Yeah, well, they are they are looking at a
couple of things at today's meeting having to do with
homeless people. One of them, as you just mentioned, they're
helping to get more homeless folks, I guess registered to
vote. And I talked to a couple of the the people that were
pushing for this afterwards. And what they said is the problem
that they keep running into is that you get homeless people who
don't have an address. And so they go online, and they try to
put their address in. Or they tried to put the nearest
intersection in which is what they are legally allowed to do
when it comes to registering in person. But the online website
won't actually let them do it because of the way the state has
set everything up. So it's not a county decision. It's actually a
state decision. And so because of that it's harder to get more
people who are homeless, registered to vote, I talked to
one guy who was homeless, and I said, you know, why is it
important for homeless folks to register to vote and vote. And
he said that, literally, this is the only thing that we have.
And,
of course, it makes so much sense don't help them, get them
to vote promised them stuff, have them vote for you put them
in dark mode. This is very cynical. This move to register
holds so cynical,
to the Los Angeles Times published an op ed. And I think
it's very important for what's going on it may have already
have influenced that we were unaware of or we certainly will
be aware of soon. This came out on August 23. So we miss this.
And the title is how an Idaho court decision will increase
homeless encampments on La streets. Here's what happened
last September. So there'll be a year ago, the Ninth Circuit
Court of Appeals now the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Is
that like kind of the last stop before you get to the Supreme
Court.
It would it's one of the last stops. There's also the first
second, third, fourth, fifth sixth. There's a bunch of them,
okay, but the ninth is one of the hardest. They're the ones
that are always stopping anything Trump that's the
one that's the one around here. That's the San Francisco winner,
which was a radical so it although Trump has been
softening it by replacing some of these judges. Well,
last September, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued
an alarming decision that strips cities have a critical tool in
meeting the responsibility of protecting public health and
safety. In Martin versus City of Boise. The Ninth Circuit became
the The only appellate court in America to rule that a city's
ordinance against living on city streets violated the US
constitutions prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment for
those who have no other options. Six judges of the Ninth Circuit
who opposed the decision have warned that the ruling would
have dire practical consequences for hundreds of cities and their
residents. Unfortunately, they are being proven right. The
courts position is unworkable and wrong on what the
Constitution requires. That's why as lawyers for Boise, I
guess there's the op eds. We're asking the US Supreme Court to
weigh in. So there we go. We're going to the Supreme Court.
There is an interesting caveat to this. And what might that be?
Well, the Ninth Circuit ruling says that it is not meant to
cover individuals who do have access to adequate temporary
shelter, either because they have the means to pay for it, or
because it is available to them for free, but who choose not to.
Now, the way I saved my mind was like, okay, so if you're camping
in the the authorities, or someone comes over and says,
Hey, you can't camp here, but here's room in the shelter, and
you say, Oh, I don't want to go, then take a hike, if I read that
correctly, and there's tonnes of shelter that people don't want
to be in them. So that could be a roundabout way of not
succeeding and solving the problem other than clearing
everybody out of in this case, downtown Austin, it won't change
a damn thing about people not having a place to live or
wanting to live there. So maybe it's not quite as dire as the
Los Angeles Times says was this Op Ed says,
and you know, the way you do it is you chip him.
Well, there is a long way to get to that point.
But I'm serious about this. If this goes to the Supreme Court,
I've
stopped I've stopped. I'm not going to condemn this idea. I
condemned the idea in general, but but the idea of chipping the
homeless is pretty radical.
That's right. Now in dark mode,
I'm going to show my school by donating to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun.
Well, we do people, we do have a few people to thank you. So
literally,
literally a few. Very few
was a dog but we have our nine 1.19 Palindrome donation coming
up. And Matt comes in with 9119 Sir Robert of suevey in Holland,
Pennsylvania comes in with it. So there's Carolyn Blaney, and
Sir Kevin McLaughlin, the Earl of Luna. That's a total of four
people.
There's the big payoff everybody. Well,
that was a
flop. Yeah, Palindrome is think of the syndrome month was
a dud wasn't much else to do. I think that newsletter didn't go
out to everybody. I think people don't know why you should have
Rick in Washington came in with 6996 He does that every month.
Also bear in Mark Tanner 6789. Who does that every twice a
month. Adam Knouse in London, Ontario came in at 5555 Dean
Roker 55 Hold
on stop. I know you're going fast. But Adam Knouse says
please credit this to my niece's knighthood Giulia. Remember
Julia the 16 year old 15 year old
Julia now she's been in the news on our show for the last two
shows.
She says please, de douche me. You've been de Deus and call out
Brian Dennis as a douchebag. From Adam Knouse in London,
Ontario, Canada. I love this. I can't wait to see Julia at the
roundtable. Shoot. She'll get there pretty quickly this way.
Now family strikes again. Dean Roker for the 510 Sir rogue vibe
count of the Palooza at 421. You see what he did?
He said he stumbled over an old gift card in the back of a
drawer where the leftover balance and thought hmm, what
better way to celebrate the last Palindrome before 2021 Of course
is not a palindrome number but he gave us the whole gift card
that was
left on the gift card.
I like it. Thank you, sir rug.
Yeah, we that's a good idea, by the way that people probably all
have gift cards that they could they could easily put on to the
show. Robert V. Staats. starts in San Diego $50.90 Sabrina
Baron got a birthday Inc. in Kona Hawaii.
She hit the 50 What'd she say
here she wished for her husband. He's a hard working talented all
American family man, but he's a huge fan of the show and rarely
misses an episode. I know he'll be listening through headphones

Meanwhile, NPR says that they did $50 million in revenue from
podcasts in which ends the end of the fiscal year 19 which runs
to the end of September.
That's they did $50 million. We got 27 people. Huh. But they're
using underwriters. And then they're scamming the public too.
And of course, of course advertising.
You mean underwriting? Yeah, well, no, they
also have well, or whatever you want to call it.
We should play that one.
into your I thought I'd labelled that one new.
Every time you'd like. It's huge. This is like me putting
something where I won't lose it. Yeah. Yeah.
It's ridiculous. I've renamed this thing a million times.
You rename it. You can't find SS. You renamed it to someplace
you won't lose it.
She's NPR the human condition. This is horrible.
I can't find it. Anyway. Screw up. Screw NPR. But
congratulations, NPR. And yeah, it was just a very short segment
that's too bad. Well, we hope that people will step up and
support us we certainly have a lot of people supporting us with
the with good ideas and other producer Lee duties. But this
one definitely has to be worked on. So of course thank you to
everyone who supported this programme episode 1170 For
everyone under $50. Even that guy with four cents even though
it basically cost us money. We still appreciate the thought.

meetups continue, here is your overview for the next few weeks.
We have the 19th that is today in Toronto, the 20 the
Southeastern Louisiana that's a new one. Nelson BC southeast
London and Wilsonville, Oregon, busy on the 21st as well eastern
North Carolina, Minneapolis and Boulder Creek as Boulder Creek,
California, September 22, Arlington, Virginia, the 26th,
Las Vegas and Luxembourg, San Antonio on the 27th and Texas on
the 28th Victoria BC Copenhagen and harbour to Grace Maryland.
October 4, we go to the lowlands for Utrecht there meet up there
the fifth in Charleston, South Carolina and Worcester,
Massachusetts. Atlanta takes care of the meetups on the 19th
and the 20th, Louisville, Kentucky with Nashville,
Tennessee on October 24. To find out more about a meetup near you
where you can meet like minded people talk about anything you
want, have something in common and not have to worry about
people's amygdala exploding because there's no triggering.
You need to be at one of these it's a great complement to just
listening to the show being part of the human network that is the
no agenda show go to no agenda meetup.com If you don't find
anything near you start one it's that simple. No agenda
meetups.com So I want to
there's a story that didn't get a lot of it got some play didn't
get as much as it should have that I want to play just because
it's just one of those stories is personally bugs me and this
is about the payroll tax online system that folded oh yeah out
of the blue leaving everybody high and dry which is very
common with these online initiatives that that are they
sound like a good idea at the time and then you give them too
much you give me your money. And then next thing you know, are
you are you trust your data with them? These things are to come
and go like crazy. And this is the payroll tax online scammer
store survey
finds that 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. So you can
imagine the shock that 10s of 1000s felt when my payroll HR
suddenly closed this month and they didn't get paid. Meg Oliver
now on the fallout,
the hometown diner in Rindge, New Hampshire is closed on
Tuesdays. It's the day owner Bonnie Rosen grant pays her 23
employees today for the first time in 10 days she was able to
do that.
It was very hard, because I know a lot of my employees are
paycheck to paycheck.
And September 5, Rosen Grant was shocked to learn none of her
employees had been paid because the payroll company She used my
payroll HR had folded her employees and 10s of 1000s of
others across the country were left without a deposit in their
account.
Very emotional. We're a small business so every penny counts.
My payroll HR was an online service that handled payroll for
small companies. When it shuttered it was holding nearly
$35 million in wages. These images from the Daily Mail show
an FBI raid Monday on the upstate New York home of the
company's CEO, the mysterious collapse of my payroll HR
impacted some 4000 businesses across the country. From
exercise companies in Chicago to Animal Rescue shelters in
Nashville to fire departments in Florida. Rosen grant is
desperate to find out what happened to the more than
$30,000 that is missing. We want our money back. In addition to
not paying her employees, Rosen Grant told me that company
hadn't paid her quarterly taxes for the last two months, either
nearly $16,000 or
so the money's
gone. Besides the fact that you don't pay your quarterly
quarterly taxes, but once a quarter, it's unlikely did last
two months. She says that it hasn't been paid as makes sense.
But other than that, this is the kind of thing you ran into
during the.com era. In the late 90s, there's all these companies
that were you know, they were well funded. They had all the
big venture capital money behind them and they were just they're
losing money but there was so good, they had cash flow and
they were you know, they were getting money and data from
people and then they just would turn out there half of these
places are fly by night operation. Don't trust online,
these online systems. I don't even like using MailChimp that
much Oh,
oh, I saw a different one. It was really good. If I wrote it
down somewhere, I'll send it to you. Another email service.
Always I, you know, I learned my lesson,
then again, like LinkedIn is a good example. LinkedIn. I was I
was a premium user, I took my premium subscription threw it
out, because I'm not going to pay them anything. Because up
until about six months ago, when you downloaded your data, your
contacts, you would have their email address. Oh, yes, I
remember this. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm bitching about this. And now
if you download your your contacts, they don't give you
the email address anymore. If you want that. You can go
through some sales system, they'll sell it to you, they'll
sell you your day that you should own. Yes, this is
Microsoft's idea of a good way to go deal. Yeah, I think as far
as I'm concerned, this is the biggest scam ever. I don't
collect these names. So I don't get their phone number. I don't
get there. So I can't use I mean this basically I have to do
everything off a LinkedIn, which I don't want to do. I mean, even
MailChimp says make sure you take your data off of our system
every so often because you never know, which I think is honest.
And they said the same thing. I can't move my link in contact
list to any other system because Microsoft just won't give me the
data guy I get a list of names. So what I mean why am I paying I
was paying the premium I'm not paying the premium. I can't even
get the data I want if I want to download it have my own little
for my own address book. Yeah, this is the common theme with
all this online crap.
Well, you would get a little more worked up about it.
Been worked up about it for a while. John C de Bourgh X debug
day?
Yeah, that's what producers do. It's vape wars. I have only two
bits for the vape wars today. I think we've given everybody just
about all that need to know. Except of course, it's always
fun to watch Dick Durbin talk some shit in Congress,
how many 50 year old chain smokers can't wait to get
unicorn milk flavouring for their vaping device. It's all
about kids in the vaping industry, despite all their
public denials, have targeted these kids and effectively
recruited our children to be the next generation of vapours for
life. How much nicotine is in that little vaping device, the
one that looks like it's a flash drive for your computer, the
equivalent amount of nicotine in vaping as in a total pack of
cigarettes, 20 Cigarettes, you get with one hit on a vaping
device is a very addictive chemical. I know from my family
experience, and we all know from those who try for long, long
time to quit using tobacco cigarettes. The nicotine draws
them back time and time again.
Oh, fantastic. So one draw, one draw of the Joule gives you the
equivalent amount of nicotine as 20 cigarettes in one draw.
It's amazing. Unlikely. It's not
true. Of course, not as total bull crap.
But Durbin should be listed as a liar. Yeah.
I did receive a notice from a insider of two big tobacco
advertising, who obviously shall go unnamed. Would you like are
you interested in hearing what the theory is there? I think
I'm sure that there is much better than anything we've come
up with.
Well, it's better than Dick Durbin. Well, Durbin, so I, I
read all of the biggest vape brands are subsidiaries of big
tobacco companies disappoint including blue DLU. That's
exactly
what I kept trying to get the name of. And they advertise on
TV all the time, and I still can't remember their name.
They're owned by Imperial Tobacco. No small player, Jewel,
which as we know is GTA JTI. Altria, Glo and Vype. Vy PE are
owned by bat British American Tobacco. These were either
acquired or developed in house as a response to the threat
presented to their traditional business by independent vape
products. Any regulatory measures aimed at certification
or testing of vape products, anything that stops or slows
down the vape revolution will be a net benefit to them. Tobacco
ACA was always to be a key component in any possible
innovation introduced by the big tobacco, given the massive
production and logistics of tobacco across the world that
they historically support. Vape of course bypasses the need for
tobacco entirely, and people hooked up on puffing any smoke
other than from tobacco is a problem. Each new vapour is one
less current or potential smoker. Honestly, I wouldn't be
surprised if the whole marijuana prohibition was lobbied by
tobacco companies for the same reason, since vape, became a
thing of great time and money was invested in trying to come
up with a way to use actual tobacco extracts in vape. Or
better yet, find a way of bypassing liquids altogether to
use dried tobacco in non combustibles is called h NB is
an acronym for heat not burn, a stopgap measure for creating
vape Lipe effect along with good old tobacco where traditional
menthol and new capsule products were want to suppose to crush a
small flavoured capsule located within the filter, thus making
it like a vape plus all of the nicotine and tar delivering
goodness of a traditional cigarette. Those were especially
popular in South America where they featured stuff like two or
even three capsules inside a single filter. So it's all about
innovation, and how they really innovate innovation. Fine. The
thing that may have contributed to attacks on vape at the moment
is the ban on menthol and capsule cigarettes coming up
from coming up next year in the European empire and some other
countries. And there's an FDA proposal to ban it in the US
too. And this makes sense because we heard about menthol,
menthol menthol. So that's even being misappropriated. The
menthol and vapes is being abused by people who want to get
rid of menthol for cancer sticks. The stuff that replaces
the flavoured tobacco will invest in inevitably B vape. It
is therefore important to slow the competition down while the
customers make the switch. I would expect the small
manufacturers and Chinese suppliers will be subject to
some bad press over the next few months. Whichever the Big
Tobacco is owned brands is not mentioned in the MSM is probably
helping the campaign love and light a source in big tobacco
advertising makes total sense.
It makes nothing but sense. And my wife said something the other
day. She was like she's against this whole discussion. She says
what's the big deal? She says everyone did quite a couple of
people died from vaping. She says six to four to 400,000
people a year can can be attributed to smoking. They're
not talking about smoking deaths. They don't even mention
it in comparison. So all is Three people died from vaping
here in the United States, because they're vaping, vitamin
E or whatever it was, it was in the wording now, but they don't
even compare it to they don't even mention, let alone compare
it to the to almost half a million people who die from
smoking worldwide. Plus, and it's just like left out of the
conversation and you got Dick Durbin going on and who cares,
right? It's small potatoes is what she says. And she's
right. And if you look at what the kids the memes they're
sending around, it's like, it's it's literally, you know, like
tobacco 4000 deaths, you know, 30,000 deaths for 50,030 50,000
deaths from car accidents 30,000 from opioids, eight deaths from
Tide Pods, six deaths from vaping. So the kids are seeing
it, they're not totally stupid. But you know, meanwhile, Dick
Durbin, Durbin's of the world our I guess he's lobbying for
big tobacco. Where's he from Illinois. Maybe your patient
the Midwest somewhere? He's from Illinois. But generally speaking
the way you do the lobbying efforts if you're in Congress, I
was lectured about that guy from Utah who is the old, the old,
the older senator from Utah, his name eludes me for some reason.
Somebody in the chat room will mention his name grey hair. He
was like the number one lobbyists insofar as the liquor
industry is concerned to keep the keep interstate shipping
from happening. And he was I was told by a big importer. This
this information may be dubious patch, but he said, What patch?
Yeah, Orrin Hatch already hatches the big he's just No,
you can't do this. You can't do that. You have to use blue laws.
And he uses the excuse of Utah, and they don't drink because
they're all Mormons in Utah. Right? And so, but he's actually
representing southern wines and spirits at the time. Now,
they're less of a player than they used to be. Which was a
group out of Florida, which may have may or may not have
connections back to the bootlegging. Oh, of course. Yes.
And he would he and they were in southern wines and spirits was
one of the biggest against oh, you should know I'd be able to
ship from, for example, K and L liquors in San Francisco, which
has a real big business sending, sending stuff to states where
it's allowable, but which turns out to only be about 15. States,
Texas, for example, even though they produce wine, I don't
believe I can ship a bottle of wine to correct you can't.
Why?
I'm still trying to get the homeless people off the streets.
I'll deal with liquor later. Just saying.
And that's the way you go. And Dick Durbin is a good example,
as you'd take somebody that doesn't seem to have any
relationship to an operation in Florida. Yeah. And you know, I
need they do he does the bidding for them. That's the way it
works. According to an insider, the Muller report. Yes, this is
a corrupt world.
Something interesting, you know, ever since you introduced us to
the the swine fever, the swine fever, pig Ebola, that is, the
Ebola appears to be at least killing half of everything in
China. Everything pig. I just saw an interesting article
today. It said Hong Kong's Green Monday sees breakthrough for
plant based pork, in swine fever hit China. I'm thinking that's
interesting. Just when the time when we've got all this Beyond
Meat, I can't believe it's not meat, you know, whatever all
these brands are. Yeah. Do you think they could really try that
he thinks the Chinese would go for that? Do you think they'll
go for plant based pork or they're gonna fall for this?
Well, the problem is that the idealism doesn't work because in
fact, I was I learned this a long time ago, and my culinary
exploits, is the Chinese when you go, for example, get to some
dis hanging pork was just generically called barbecue
pork, you got a big piece, you chop it up, you put it in your
fried rice, you use it for all sorts of things. The Americans
always all went lean, they weren't lean. It's like the
bacon, I wouldn't lean don't lean on lean bacon. The Chinese
want fatty. Because the source of energy really comes from the
fat, right? It's getting protein from the lean, which you may or
may not need too much of, especially if you're a mature
adult, but you do need energy and the energy comes from the
fat content. And so they always want more they want fatty
Barbecue, barbecue pork, and fatty bacon.
And so I so I don't know how you can get that component in the
bullcrap product but it's gonna all be lean, which is the
Chinese don't like
huh, all right. Well, it was just a thought. So I just think
it's gonna be a flop.
You know, I've been observing the advertising or I should say
lack thereof on Tucker Carlson cancelled tonight. Because he is
he is still a huge target of cancelled culture. Sure. And he
farmer has been a problem no farm
do I think I think Fox has taken a beating on that show.
Well,
I think they I think he did a native N.
Oh, brother. Right. And what surprised
me? Yes. It was so it was almost like back to when did we have
the swine flu when I got swine flu? 2010 2009 2010. Yeah.
Whether the lines? Yeah. So I think they're
trying to bring that back. Because the if you if you look
for the headline within the next 36 hours, a super flu could
spread like wildfire across America and Tucker kick this off
yesterday with that douchebag doctor who he always brings in
the guy who you know, they all hate weed and it's always anti
anti Goodman's and it's always shilling for the big
pharmaceutical industry. Listen to this.
A new report by the World Health Organisation says it's just a
matter of time, maybe not that much time before a major flu
pandemic.
Okay, now before we do that, let's remind one
is wait. There's not there's they don't have something on the
horizon. There's not a bug that they can identify this come out.
This is just a vague, vague report that one of these
days.
Well, it is the World Health Organisation. Let me remind you
of the kind of the kind of report we got from them in 2014.
This
Ebola epidemic is the largest and most severe and most complex
we've ever seen in the nearly 40 year history of this disease. No
one even outbreak responders would experience dating back to
1976 to 1995 people that were directly involved with those
outbreaks None of them have ever seen any thing like it.
We were all going to die. And then they Oh, and that guy came
back we had Ebola and he was live on every news channel and
he just hops out of the ambulance. Remember that ball
just go inside here. So the World War was
also the nurse who said screw this and she wasn't going to be
put in. She went bicycling.
So the World Health Organisation are a bunch of douche bags,
shields and Tucker's all in a
new report by the World Health Organisation says it's just a
matter of time, maybe not that much time before a major flu
pandemic. In today's hyper globalised world. The report
says a super flu could spread worldwide 36 hours and
potentially kill 80 million people. Are we prepared for that
80 million people are gonna die. Could we prepare for that? Dr.
Marc Siegel is a fox contributor. He joins us
tonight. Are you worried about you
hear that they had a little sound effect in there. There's
like little emergency Beep bop spin where that was,
you know what that could have been? It could have been a timer
so that because they have to talk about X amount of time it
is you know, cluding his intro?
Okay, hold on pay. You are nailing it, my friend. This
report? Will it's 215 on the timer. The be broke comes almost
exactly two minutes. I think you're right,
in just 36 hours and potentially kill 80 million people we
prepared for that. Could we prepare for that? Dr. Marc
Siegel, contributor two minutes on the nose. Are you worried
about this? Dr.
Tucker, I'm worried about this because flu is a very changeable
virus. It mutates all the time. And if we see a flu that we
haven't seen before, and we don't have any immunity to, we
could see a lot of deaths from it. And already in a regular flu
season to give you the an idea kills half a million people
around the world and infects a billion people every year.
That's the flu that we have immunity to, that's the flu that
your flu shot protects you against. But if we saw a new
version at pandemic strain, a serious one, not like the one we
saw in 2009, but a really bad one with air travel, it could
spread around the globe in a matter of days. And we wouldn't
be prepared for it. We could make a pandemic vaccine, but
that take months, we have a universal flu vaccine in the
pipeline. But that's going to take five years before it's
ready. We need it right now. And another thing, why don't we have
the kinds of detection software we need to tell me if someone's
sick before they get symptoms. People travel on planes, right?
They're close together, they're coughing on each other. They
could be in Asia one day, and here in New York the next day
spreading a serious killer like the flu. Flu spreads very
easily. It lives on surfaces, it spreads through the air, it
kills you, it can get you quite sick, it can cause pneumonia can
cause all kinds of other infections. I want to know that
a person has it before they're even sick. We have the
technology for that we're not using it. And I want that flu
vaccine that we can use against all strains that come out.
What's going to get us in big trouble is a mutation, something
that mutates from a bird or a bird like creature to humans.
We've seen it before we saw it in 1980. If it happens now,
you're going to also see a lot of panic. And one more thing
Tucker bioterror, we've talked about that on the show here. You
could take a flu molecule in the laboratory and change it so it's
one just a slight change genetically, so that we've never
seen it before
fine. Some of your reports are reassuring tonight's is not
among them. Dr. Siegel. Great.
Guy.
I find that to be the most despicable.
But what was it? You think it's part of a programme of average?
Yes. So there's gonna be more and more until they finally have
the punchline of who the big advertiser is because there's no
evidence that there was an advertiser
there. Oh no, this is part of the the World Health
Organisation came out with a 36 hour warning super flu. They
repeat this verbatim add some biological terror to fill up the
two minute window they promised and think about it. They finally
got the measles ever. Oh, measles, ha ha, measles,
measles, measles. Everyone's ready. They're ready to get flu
shots. I think the advertising starts next week. They're gonna
push it
and kill it. Now you have to follow it. Of course, I'm
gonna follow it. I love this.
I live for this.
Love it. And it reminds
me that guy's an idiot. That doctor will wait
for this. If the super flu really shows up. This is the
report I would have done. But of course, I wasn't getting paid to
do it. And look at what's going to happen to the people who are
homeless on the street. That's gonna that's going to be some
angle. That's going to be some nasty shit.
In fact, an angle that's an angle for a good story. If
you're a local news producer, I would say you just heard a very
valuable donate. US word a very valuable executive. high level
idea that the troops should be loose paying attention to Yes.
Yeah, exactly. And it reminds me a little bit of I think it was
Archie, it must have been Star Trek Deep Space Nine, I think
episode 11.
What is this place?
Sanctuary district.
21st century history is not one of my strong points. too
depressing.
It's been a hobby of mine. It made some ugly mistakes. But
they also paved the way for a lot of things we now take
for granted. And assume this is one of those mistakes and bad
one.
By the early 2020s, there was a place like this in every major
city in the United States.
Why are these people in here? They criminals.
know people with criminal records weren't allowed in the
sanctuary districts.
And what do they do to deserve this?
Just people without jobs or places to
live, so they get put in here.
Welcome to 21st century doctor.
I think that was that was filmed in 99 or something.
Before that, maybe? Ah,
yes, visionary. That's right. Get your get your flu infested
campers. And one way
to rouse them if they're ready to get sick and this epidemic
going around?
Hey,
you got an ISO for end of show. I think we should end this.
I have a big long unless you want. One you can try to take a
look at this. This is the this part of one of the Biden series
is kids hear words, right? Sure
the kids hear words. Make sure the kids hear words. Okay.
But that's all I got. That's all you got. Well, I can't count on
you. Apparently. Okay. I'll
make an effort in the future.
What am I going to do for this show? Oh, no.
I do have one clip. I like to get out of here. Okay, let's do
that. Sorry about that.
No, it's not your fault. It's just
I just snowed into here. Snowden versus Trump is back in the news
this not being reported in the mainstream.
The Trump administration filed suit Tuesday against NSA
whistleblower Edward Snowden over his newly released memoir
titled permanent record seeking to block his publisher from
forwarding any revenue from book sales. Snowden tweeted in
response, quote, this is the book The government does not
want you to read. Unquote. This comes after Snowden, who has
been in exile and Russia since 2013. told CBS News Monday, he
would return to the US if he was guaranteed a fair trial and
chance to share with the American public why he leaked
NSA documents.
I'm not asking for a pardon. I'm not asking for a pass. What I'm
asking for is a fair trial. And this is the bottom line that any
American should require. Right? We don't want people thrown in
prison without the jury being able to decide whether what they
did was right or wrong.
Yeah, apparently, the new DNI was at the
director of DNI who's the new guy? Yeah, the new guy. Yeah,
he has written a letter saying time to renew the what is it?
What's the name of that act? It's the Patriot you know, it's
the follow up to the Patriot Act which has, you know, the same so
called protections of FISA national
Yeah, I know what it is national defect.
No, no, no, no, no, no, it's like the good stuff and no, it's
like well, this is because I was reading I can't believe it. I
don't have this article somewhere. It's like the it's
not the it's not patriot. It's the America Act. Oh, here it is.
I got it. I'm sorry. USA Freedom Act. Oh, yeah, there you go.
That's the one Yeah, so he Yeah. Joseph McGuire. He says the USA
Freedom Act wire. I have mag wire. The USA Freedom Act of
2015. preserves significant national security authorities
enhances privacy and civil liberties protections increases
transparency
and arrest Snowden. Yeah, the
arrest Snowden and the administration supports a clean
and permanent reauthorization of all the USA Freedom Act
provisions of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act
that will expire in December 2019, including the lone wolf
and roving wiretap authorities and the acquisition of business
records including call detail records under Title Five of
FISA, the USA what's the name of this act again, the USA Freedom
Act.

Smoke that cigarette.
You smoke yourself.
In Italy 1 million smokers have taken up e cigarettes. market
researchers Euro monitor international estimate the
industry will be worth $7 billion by the end of the year.
In January e cigarette makers in Italy will have to pay 80.5% of
their revenue in taxes.
So E cigarettes are now subject to a 92% tax in the state of
Vermont. The bill is aimed at curbing youth vaping the new tax
is not actually going to affect cigarettes, it's only going to
be affecting e6. And I also suppose others substitute
products.
l St. Peter at the Golden Gate that you hates to make you wait,
but you just got to have another cigarette.
They took a large group of people who wanted to stop
smoking half of them they gave e cigarettes to and the other half
they could choose whatever they wanted for nicotine substitution
to patch chewing gum. It turned out many more people were
successful using E cigarettes let's call it vaping than any
other method of smoking cessation.
Government is so dependent on that tax dollar that comes from
tobacco. It's an enormous amount of petrol, they will be very
reluctant to see that go down there people switched off
tobacco and went on to vaping then that tax take may reduce
and maybe that's the real reason. Multiple
drones bombed Saudi Arabia's largest oil facilities today in
neighbouring Yemen Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for the
attack they probably mean. Day game.
