Colorado awaits. Adam curry, John C. Devorah.
Sunday February 16 2020. This is your award winning get my nation
media assassination episode 1200 17. This is no agenda,
evaluating Mikulas 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 where everybody's disappointed.
I'm John C. Dvorak. Greg Levin Buzzkill.
Wait a minute who's disappointed about what
Bernie did show up here? I was talking to everyplace but in the
Bay Area that I know I'm
sorry. I have no idea. Loop, which is
always possible. I
have no idea what's going on what's happening.
But Bernie, Bernie Bernie's it's Bernie mania.
Do you have a clip yet? Can you back this up amendment Texas. We
don't have no Bernie mania here. Oh, they
don't burn. He's not gonna go to Texas again to get the hang him.
No, they won't. He's welcoming Austin now. Bernie. Bernie's
very welcome at Austin. You know better than that. So what he was
supposed to show up for something didn't
know he never was supposed to. He's up in to go but dome. Oh,
and by the way that won't get carried by he might I'd like to
I would like somebody in Washington. I don't know. I
think it's maybe today, or might have been yesterday. But if
there's anyone go to this event in the Tacoma Dome, I'd like to
know if he actually fills it. There's any empty seats. How
many jobs always bragging about there's no empty seats and
allows 1000s of people outside to come in there is usually
a big line outside. I don't know why they're staying there. They
can't get in.
To 23,000. Cedar
to column a dome. Yeah. It's a big venue. Yeah. 23
thought I'm just looking at the way you said why 23,000 seats.
Yeah,
that's a big venue for Lord dome, supposedly for rock
concerts.
rock concerts, yeah. Hey, what rock bands have been there. rock
concerts, The Rolling Stones 2020 tours coming through the
state is of course it is I can't believe those guys are still
doing it. And either it's amazing.
jack them up before they get on stage.
Seed. Well, I guess we could dive right into that. But
actually, there was a I want to do this up front. Because this
always is at the end of the show. And I want to put it in
the in in the beginning. This is we talked about it maybe one or
two episodes ago, this Ninth Circuit circuit court ruling
about camping in cities, which was instigated by Idaho, and
went to the ninth circuit. And the problem is that there is
people were saying we cannot just take these people and take
their tent and move them away. Because that is equal to taking
their home and therefore is cruel and unusual punishment.
And this is what's been used in Austin and many other cities
around the country to say, well, we can ban this camping, which
of course is happening on completely, you know, in places
where you're not allowed to camp. And the the ninth circuit
which breaks by the way, which opens up another Pandora's box
of if you go to a state park or whatever you do, and you go
you're actually camping? Yes. Can you just go camp anywhere
now because you know, you can't stop anyone from camping
anywhere?
Well, that's only if you're above the law. And and as we
learned on the last episode, if you have a job and you and you
are functioning in society, then no you can't do that. Because
then we need to find you and take your money. If you have no
money, man when camp. So the Ninth Circuit tried to figure
out what what this would be because this is cruel and
unusual punishment is a constitutional issue. It is what
part of what amendment is that? Do you know offhand?
It's in the Constitution, I believe.
I think it's an amendment. No think so. And let's see. No, I
think you're right here it is cooling as a phrase. The Eighth
Amendment No, I'm right. The Eighth Amendment to the United
States Constitution states that cruel and unusual punishment, so
not be inflicted. So it is it isn't amendment, Eighth
Amendment. Anyway. The Ninth Circuit couldn't figure it out.
They kicked it to the Supreme Court. And here's an update
today the supreme court denied without explanation the city of
Boise is petition to appeal what's seen as a sweeping ruling
in the federal Ninth Circuit from last year. That lower court
ruled that Idaho's capital city was in violation of the
Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment when police
CIHR ticketed the homeless for sleeping in public. Now cities
in the west from Idaho to Washington to California can't
enforce such rules against the homeless until they found
shelter for everyone who needs it. And most cities in the
region don't have enough shelter beds on any given night, which
means if they take it the homeless now they're in
violation of federal law. Attorney theand a evangelist
represented Boise in its appeal.
And so these hands are tied. You want to say so?
Yeah, well, they make it sound like there's some law that's
been written but during violation of the Constitution,
that's okay.
Well, by saying federal law, you mean, instead of I think they
actually mentioned at the end and don't
have enough shelter beds on any given night, which means if they
ticket the homeless, now they're in violation of federal law.
Attorney theand, a evangelists representing the homeless?
No, it's against the law. You can ticket them but not for
sleeping. I mean, camping in public. So no, you can't least
ticketing them is not cruel and unusual punishment is a tick
that meet does that mean all tickets are cruel and unusual?
No, you're not then I might have to start the clip over. They
very clearly say that if you don't have a space for them to
go then it's cruel and unusual punishment.
That but that's different than ticketing them. Listen again.
Then, today, the supreme by
the way, what are you and I really arguing? The courts? Yes,
I am I am doing
today the supreme court denied without explanation. The city of
Boise is petitioned to appeal what's seen as a sweeping ruling
in the federal Ninth Circuit from last year, that lower court
ruled that Idaho's capital city was in violation of the
Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment when police
here ticketed the homeless for sleeping in public. Now cities
in the west from Idaho to Washington to California can't
enforce such rules against the homeless until they found
shelter for everyone who needs it. And most cities in the
region don't have enough shelter beds on any given night. Which
means if they take it the homeless now they're in
violation of federal law.
So this is interesting is only if you can provide beds for
everybody. Can you then start ticketing them, so it can't be
just hey, I got a bed for you and I have to bid for everybody.
Attorney theand a evangelists represented Boise in its appeal
and City's hands are tied now by the Ninth Circuit's decision
because it effectively creates a constitutional right to camp.
Major West Coast cities like Los Angeles are grappling with
growing tent cities and the public health and safety
fallouts from them. Many filed briefs in support of Boise's
appeal. Evangelist says everyone agrees the solution is more low
income housing and services. But she says this decision makes it
virtually impossible for cities to do anything in the interim.
And we
have an outbreak of diseases and a very dangerous situation for
people who are living on the streets and for everyone. And
the city needs to have the tools available to deal with growing
encampments.
In a statement Boise's outgoing Mayor Dave bieter said he hopes
the city's next administration continues to fight in federal
court to get clarification about how to comply with the law.
that's seen as unlikely at least here. The mayor lost in a heated
election this month to a more liberal Democrat would criticize
the city for criminalizing homelessness. Maria Foscarini
has heads the National Center on Homelessness and Poverty, which
helped represent the Boise homeless who brought the case.
She says the court has now affirmed that ticketing or
jailing homeless people isn't working.
The solution is addressing the root of the problem, which is
the people can't afford a place to live. People don't have
access to the services they need
Foscarini hopes this news will force cities to stop turning to
the courts and start finding long term solutions. There you
go
about rousting them that seemed to be specifically about
ticketing them. By the way, it also brings up the kind of the
logical conclusion to this sort of thinking which is like I'm
driving my car around and there's absolutely no place to
park Can I just double park and if you take it me It's cruel and
unusual punishment.
Are you homeless?
No, I'm talking about my I'm just taking the logic of the
argument that if you can't there's no housing there's no
way that these people could find a place to sleep or live dead
therefore they can just park themselves wherever they want.
How's that different than me double parking when I can't find
a parking spot? I
think that's a great idea. Next time you're up in Washington,
you're visiting the fam you should try that and and let me
know how that goes for you. I will. Of course this is it's
crazy. But there you go. Cholera awaits and But the worst part is
this happened three weeks ago. I only found out about it now.
They don't want people knowing about this. Oh,
no, we're too obsessed with trauma. We're too obsessed with
that. So boring. Yeah, there were complaints. I saw some
donation complaints. Oh my god. I liked it when we had more
EUROPEAN NEWS. So I got some good EUROPEAN NEWS today too.
But I need to stay late. Then then not enough EUROPEAN NEWS
because it's all Trump Trump Trump and it's not but it
appears that
way. What we have in front of us I have I don't get any Trump
today. I got one thing Maybe
I am. I got
other kind of Trump. Ancillary news like this is kind of funny.
Abinadi news. Good. The Rundown.
Here we go on us. Michael Avenatti rocketed to fame two
years ago as the attorney for porn star stormy Daniels and her
lawsuits against President Trump. But his meteoric rise was
matched only by the speed of his catastrophic fall. Today a jury
found him guilty of attempting to extort millions of dollars
from Nike by threatening to go public with claims that the shoe
company was illegally paying high school basketball players.
Nike denied that claim and said today the verdict speaks
volumes. He's in a bit of a state of shock Avanade. His
attorneys say he plans to appeal
Avanade he was Avenatti. And he's he's a strong guy. And
obviously, he's disappointed but he's a fighter.
He used his fame as Daniel's attorney to dominate the
spotlight as he excoriated President Trump for allegedly
having an affair with Daniels and then paying her to cover it
up.
But for the fact that he's president, he would be indicted
on numerous criminal charges.
He even suggested he might run for president, but now it's
Avenatti, who faces numerous criminal charges. In addition to
today's guilty verdicts, for which he could get more than 40
years. He is accused of defrauding Daniels in a book
deal and defrauding other clients of millions of dollars
of a naughty has been held behind bars since January for
violating his bail conditions. His attorneys say he's
reportedly in the same solitary confinement so that held El
Chapo the Mexican drug lord, they say he's being treated like
a caged animal. Story.
What a story No, no, that's only half the story CBS and I'm glad
you played that so that I can play you the collage of the lead
up to the the rise and subsequent fall of Michael
Avenatti that somebody put this, of course, I've cried Free
Beacon. Yeah, like I love the Free Beacon they got nothing
else but time on their hands. And this does fit perfectly in
my rule of the media boomerang. If you abuse the media for your
own personal gain, it will eventually boomerang back and
hit you with at least equal but often multiple times the force
is Donald Trump's worst nightmare. Mike.
Joining us once again is Michael Avenatti. Let's bring in Michael
Avenatti. Michael Avenatti. Michael Avenatti. Thank you very
much. He's out there saving the country who
says he may be the savior of the Republic. If
you are something of a folk hero. Now I owe
Michael Avenatti an apology. I've been saying enough for
reading Michael, I've seen you everywhere. What do you love to
say? I was wrong. Brother. You have a lot to say. I
am just dying to hear what you think people
all like you. I'm the only person
right here.
Donald Trump fears more than Robert Miller. We
think you guys are the tip of the spear that's going to take
down Donald Trump. Michael Avenatti is a beast. Yeah, okay,
that's true. And he's a beast. He's a beast.
I hand it to Michael Simon. He has a bigger calling. Hear that
being a lawyer is minimal compared to what he's doing.
No one has talked tougher directly to Donald Trump on TV
than Michael Avenatti. And Donald Trump is afraid to
mention his name.
That's fascinating.
Donald Trump is terrified of Michael Lebanon, Iraq for as
money everybody else Michael Avenatti, an
existential threat to the Trump presidency.
The Democrats could learn something for you. You are
messing with Trump a lot more than they are.
He has no doubt created sheer panic. And Donald Trump's very
fragile mind.
Michael Avenatti is laying down the law as guest co host really
thinking about running for president.
But one reason why I'm taking you seriously as a contender is
because of your presence on cable news.
You look at the field of Democrats right now. And
Avenatti is the one who stands out they decide they value a
fighter most people are foolish to underestimate Michael
Avenatti. We said that they need a fighter look.
I mean, we're gonna continue to use the media. I think we've
used it with great success. All of my sexual fantasies involve
handcuffs.
So therein lies a potential end of show ISO, all of my sexual
fantasies involve handcuffs, just putting it out there. We'll
see how you feel about that. But he didn't
even say that.
He was off the rails, he really thought he could say and do
anything. And thank God for YouTube, I will say it YouTube
truly is much more important than anybody realize. It's not
for everyone to go on there and yell and left and right about
what they feel or think. No, it's for documenting the media.
Because you can get almost anything anytime, pretty much on
demand. And you can see you can see the hypocrisy over weeks,
months years. It's it is really a I would hate to say it, but it
does need to be protected. It's an important resource for the
world. Otherwise, how would we get all this I would never get
this put together?
No, it's impossible. YouTube's and you heard in their joy Bay
har over and over. And you also heard Nicole water snow. Stereo
Donald. Hmm. There I mean, it's unbelievable.
Speaking of bill actually, I'm, I'm worried. I'm a little
worried about our fellow American citizens. And, and I
think my, my observation of this started, and I believe I told
you about this when the young woman who does my hair She
started off like, well, you know, Trump, you know, he's a
dictator, aren't you worried that he won't leave the White
House even if he loses or even at the end of his second term?
Do you recall this that
Oh, yeah. Yeah, there's a lot of time again and I retorted with
my common retort to that which is yeah, they said that about
Bush this is at about Nixon they said that about Obama.
Yes, there is and by the way, I believe your lip Joe friends
also say this Are they on have they mentioned the not leaving
the White House bid?
Oh, you know, I don't have that one documented as possible it
maybe
you can throw that one out in your blob, that grenade see what
comes back? And I think what's going on? You
know, they've been kinda onto me recently. Gee. Okay.
I was saddened and I think what's happening is the the
leaders of the people who really I'm not going to say the left
but just the people who really despise Trump and are afraid of
him. For all the reasons have been mind controlled to such a
degree that now they see that their leaders and their leaders
are Bill Maher, you know, the view it's not it's not polite,
it's not politicians, they looked and I know that people
watch the Real Time with Bill Maher. And they, I think they're
seeing that there's despair and they're broken. And, and, and I
watched the the reason I watched the Friday episode was because
Amy Klobuchar was going to be the interviewee at the beginning
interview. But what happened there made me watch the entire
show. I pulled a couple of clips. It's really sad. What is
going on here. Listen to Bill Maher with Amy Klobuchar.
So okay, I'm gonna ask this question because I asked you to
every Democratic politics right comes on here. I'm saying you
win.
Okay. You win it. I'm glad.
That's different than him leaving. That's what I want to
know. What is the plan? And I think we need to start talking
about it now. Because it's very hard for me to imagine you
winning the popular the electoral vote fair and square
and him sending out a congratulatory telegram. Right.
So glad you won. We had a good match. Let me tell you where I
keep the you know, important papers. He's not leaving these
people are not going to give up power. What is the plan? If he
says I find irregularities, the people who read it in Iowa
screwed it up again. I have to stay. It was rigged. He's
already said this many times. What do you do that?
The first thing you do is now you start now that is to win
big, which I believe will help now just don't Secondly, come
on. You win all the states in the country for him to say
Secondly, you make sure that we have backup paper ballots you
push for that's those are my bills. You do everything to
protect our election in
the era of fake news. And not there's no facts anymore. It's
just about power.
He has always had a peaceful transition of power in this
always have had we have correct and we're now in a different
world. You have the people on your side and in a big way.
He has a other people on his side, the ones with the guns,
I think will do this. I think that the law, we hope what we
have to unite on as a country is that the rule of law cannot
handle four more years of a guy that thinks he's above it.
Democracy, you at least start asking
the people in power the police in the military, what would you
do if he said he wouldn't leave? Would you least ask start asking
them, get them on the record? I think that
this is sad that he's, I don't know if he actually thinks this
sounds like he does. He sounds sincere. And it's a shame that
she didn't say, Bill, you're acting like an idiot. This is
not gonna happen. Well, luckily, it happened before and why are
you thinking this
way? Luckily, when he sat down with his panel, by the way, does
Trump have his own army? I don't think so. Oh, I
think you need to listen to some clips. When he sat down with the
panel, which was comprised of Van Jones, who I like I like Van
Jones. He's interesting and he has contrarian views sometimes,
some other nude Nick forget his name and Katie Couric. Former.
Today Show a bigger NBC,
CBS host of the CBS Evening News. She CBS
what a flop of a way. Why do I think she was NBC? She was
always CBS
cute. No, no, she was she wasn't he Jonas lured her away? Right
anchor
and then she went to Yahoo. And then we lost her for a couple of
years after the Yahoo. So I'll give props to Katie Couric
because she jumps in at the minute he sits down on the
panel, he starts again and she kind of pushes back.
Okay, I know I'm the crazy person because they say he's not
leaving. I
just we're obsessed with this bill.
It's only our country. I'm sorry. I'm a little obsessed.
But
what is what is made you so focused on this,
everything Donald Trump has ever done. I laid it out a couple of
weeks ago. He said it himself in 2016. He said, If he when he
thought he was going to lose, it's rigged. He doesn't accept
any.
I guess the question I ask is in countries where they pull that
kind of stuff off the generals turned out to be traitors. I
have not seen any evidence yet that the generals are actually
unpatriotic if that happens, I think we're in trouble. But I
think I think America's military would be happy to walk in there
and take him out.
We'll see. It's all great that we're so happy with the
hypothetical best out because that's what solves problems.
Hoping and smiling.
So you think okay, that might be enough. No, no, no, he can back
up his his fear or he backs it up with assertions we can back
up his fear that the military won't take Trump out if he
refuses to leave Okay, so
let me let me just say what the way dictators takeover is they
buy off different factions you buy off the donor class like
with tax cuts, you buy off the business people with getting rid
of regulations. You buy off the military. You're right with.
Some of them don't like him, but he's gives them everything they
want. A lot of money goes to the military. And then there's the
police.
Here's what I don't understand what he what the list he just
gave there. That's how you win an election. It's not how you
convinced the military to keep you in power. These are all
things that are very obvious that yeah, people would like
these would they like their? Their forces funded properly?
They want the police respected. But and that's to get them to
vote for you, but Marcy's that is. No, no. That's how dictators
work. He's bought them all off with bought them off. I don't
know exactly how
it needs to be the checked out. Van Jones era era? Yes.
This is what I'm saying is problem. This sickness is really
gone too far. Van Jones pushes back again.
He loses but he won't leave. And then who gets rid of him the
police? This is the police. Well, I mean, I
I just like I understand your concern. Seriously, and you can
bad things happen to them. And people have taken democracy for
granted for wait. Yeah, we're not that special. Exactly. And I
think we forget, a democratic republic is the most rare and
fragile form of government around human history. They write
almost never worried. Is that true?
No.
Why would he even say that? I didn't quite understand why it
is a
rare form because people don't like it because you can't do
things like Mars describing you literally can't stay in the
office if you're kicked out or if you're voted out, not kicked
out, but voted out to try to kick him out. You get voted out.
I mean, why does it even say the same? Well, if he gets impeached
and found guilty, why did he Why doesn't he stay then to I mean
it none of it makes any sense. Because the problem is the way
the system works. If he stays in Aw, he's not going to stay in
office. And his office is not you know, he's not good. Maybe
under some nutball circumstances, if you're
assuming he's crazy, he stays in the White House, and they just
wait him out. They starve him out. Meanwhile, Congress does
its own thing. It's passing bills. And as the new president
signs the bills and does all that it's you know, everything
else continues because you can't stop that process. Whether the
President is there or not. I mean, Woodrow Wilson was, was in
a coma for like, a year while his wife was acting as
president. The this is just getting completely insane. It's
not a fragile system is a very, very strong system. It just that
people don't like to implement it.
And fragile form of government around human history. They write
almost never worried fragile, and that's and that's why we
have to be to be vigilant, but
about 90% of police support Trump is amazingly and when he
mentioned he says this outright, he says, we have the rough
people. And then he mentions I love that the military, the
police and the bikers. Like, like if you had the whole US
military and the police, that wouldn't be enough. Let's bring
in the guys with the pool cues from Baltimore.
It just shows you how little Donald Trump knows about the
military in which he refused to serve. Because when you think of
Jim Mattis when you think of General Kelly, the so called
Rough people, marine and marine generals, these are people
everyone I've known in the military van is absolute right?
They are sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United
States. They are the most patriotic Americans understand
that the Constitution is not a formula for a dictatorship.
Can you back it up? He says that Trump doesn't understand these
people and he says he refused to serve. He didn't refuse to
serve. Refusing to serve is refusing to serve as I'm not
serving. He got off on some deferment. That's different. Oh,
of course.
These are people everyone Gersh on from
the Washington Post. I think yeah,
nerd with with glasses. Yeah, it's
funny looking glasses. Yeah.
Turfan is absolutely right. They are sworn to uphold the
Constitution of the United States. They are the most
patriotic Americans understand that the Constitution is not a
formula for a dictatorship or for Wait,
did I not go back far enough to catch that bit probably
refused to serve. There you go.
Lie, lies. Marina Washington
Post lies.
The Washington Post. Thank you. Good point. These are the same
people who have the lie database on Trump. Just a blatant
lie. Yeah, it's a
constitution of the United States. They are the most
patriotic Americans understand that the Constitution is not a
formula for a dictatorship or for a man to extend.
We're also sworn to follow the commander in chief they weren't
chain of command once
but it is one of the it's one of the great achievements of
American democracy that that our military flourished allegiance
to the Constitution, not to the commander in chief and we and we
do on all the way down. What
did the Senate do with impeachment? Didn't they swear
an oath?
I'm sorry, it was
brother goes off the rails was Bret Stevens. Was Bret Stevens,
The New York Times Yeah. Oh, wow. They clones?
Yes. Thank you troll room. Although he didn't have to be a
dick about it. Ronnie again. Thanks, trolls. Well,
he has exact same voice as the other guy because the other guy
was just on newshour.
Well, thank God and this will be the last time from the Maher
show. Thank goodness. Van Jones brings everybody back to sanity
kind of, but already, my head was my mouth was open watching
this like holy crap. Key saying was such conviction. This is not
the Bill Maher act. He means this he he truly has some fear.
And you hear the audience you can hear a pin drop. They're not
hooting and hollering the whole time. They're like, Ah, they're
worried. Enter van.
You know, the, the thing I like about what this conversation is
this you're assuming that the Democrats can win, and then he
won't leave? But it's gonna take for your first part. Well, by
the way,
44% of Democrats think the Democrats will win. No, we
can't. 80% of the Republicans think they will win. And also I
suppose it's Bernie Biden and Bloomberg. It's 378 year old
white guys.
So this is very depressing for people. And by the way, that's
not a lie. Lie Lie. But this is depressing. And a lot of people
watch Bill Maher and a lot of people have been sucked in and I
think that they're seeing the leaders throwing up their hands
saying what would never gonna do we got old white people, they're
never gonna win. Trump is never gonna leave. We're in a
dictatorship and smart people are are going nuts. Enter my lib
Dev, you have the lib Jo's I've got a Lib Dem Have a developer.
And I know him quite well. He is the CO inventor of podcasting,
Dave Winer, and his most recent podcast included this bit, think
he was talking about the Rachel Maddow show, but just listen to
being poisoned by the shows
is very concerning to me. I don't care if you hate Trump
hate, I don't care. You're an American, and you're, you're
you're sick.
Rachel Maddow, she had Timothy Snyder, who was a Yale professor
who's written a couple of books lately about tyranny and about
what we're going through and what history tells us is going
to happen and how we should fight it. And so she is very
fixated on now it has happened, and it's no longer a threat. But
we're living in a lawless country now. She's right, we
haven't seen the full effect of it, we will, each of us will.
And it may take a while, but we're not going to get off this
path. Bloomberg or not, it really doesn't seem like we're
going to get off the path. We're gonna put it in a good fight.
Because Bloomberg is, is the next thing after impeachment. As
you've got a guy with infinitely deep pockets, and the will to
fight and the intelligence to do it intelligently. But it's, it's
really, it's probably it's too late, because they'll stop him.
They can put him in jail, and they will put him in jail, or
they'll deport him, and Obama will go live in exile somewhere
and Hillary Clinton and anybody who has potential opposition to
Trump will either go into jail or we'll go somewhere else. So
that's where we're going.
This is an illness, and that's concerning. I'm gonna deport
Michael Bloomberg deport it what?
We're going to deport him somehow. Guys have any
familiarity with anything that's realistic, or the law itself or
the Constitution, or this country? And how,
right Yes, yes, of course they do. They're very intelligent
people, but something has snapped. And it's
your snap. Do you think they're gonna deport Michael Bloomberg?
Do you set it right, they've been poisoned. They continue to
be poisoned, literally poisoned.
Yeah, their brain is being poisoned as being poisoned by
Rachel Maddow. He named her Yeah. Lawrence O'Donnell is a
good example. He was in that prominently represented in that
last clip of Avenatti. And there's a bunch of them. Rajoy
Bay, here's another one, she was a big hater. She had her own
show for a while now she's on the view. And she's terrible
person. And she's the same age as Bernie.
I had a thought about some of this, particularly when it comes
to social media. And I was just a passing thought, but it made
some sense to me. What what a lot of politicians forget, or
they I think people in general forget that we are the United
States and the United States is, you know, it's different
territories. And when I election of states, yes, not, not the
United people of America, United States, if you're in New York,
and if you're from New York, and someone starts talking about
anything, and I know that person's from New York, or
there's context that like Dave Winer, who lives, I think he
just moved upstate, but he was in New York City for six or
seven years. I have a little more context about his thinking,
if you know, when you see me on Twitter, which you will now
because I changed my profile name, you see Adam curry dash,
Texas, you know, I'm in Texas, you know, I'm going to have a
certain view, people have forgotten this. It's certainly
on social media. So when someone says, I hate the bowls, you
know? Yeah, well, let's see where he's from, you know, and
then you can maybe he's from the, from Texas, or maybe from
Florida, the Miami Heat, whatever it is, and you
immediately have context, but because we don't have that
people immediately, just start freaking out over shit. And I
think it should be mandatory, and I've done it to put your
place in your profile name. When people have context, what you're
saying, I think it will actually make a little difference in the
discourse online.
I think it'll make zero difference because I don't think
people understand the basics. I don't think a person for who I
mean Trump's a good example. He's from Queens, they talk a
certain way there and he acts a certain way
not the same as as Manhattan by the way, not though not even
close.
And Brooklyn is also different, but so that's my point. He's
from Queens, which is the real middle class kind of brag about
everything area where they have a certain pattern or a certain
way of talking. They're very identifiable, and it offends me
Anybody not from Queens?
Right? And I think it would be a little more helpful if people
identified where they're from.
I don't think it would help. I say I'll say it again, make a
difference.
Well, I'm a social engineer. So I'm thinking it will work. I'm
sure you're hopeful is what it is. I have compound found this
very depressing, not distressed mark, not depressed. Not by the
way. If Trump goes blows in with a landslide in 2020, when he's
going to have to quit. They're going to bring up the topic
again, what if he doesn't quit? Somebody, by the way, I wouldn't
put it past Trump to do this just as a joke. Yeah, could try
to pass a law where you can run again, try to repeal the
amendment to prevent the president from running more than
twice. And they'll put you know, somebody by the way, there's a
guy in Texas that puts that in or a couple of people, Congress,
people that put that they were putting it in during the Obama
administration.
Yeah, of course, we heard the same. It's exactly the same,
exactly the same. I'm just concerned. I've never seen
people who I know are intelligent, smart learned. I've
never seen this type of behavior. So it's not a I'm not
just calling
the shots. I'm not well,
they didn't even say that.
No, that is what they're thinking. But it's
it's truly a they are being poisoned. You said it. That was
the best the best way to look at it that being poisoned. Yeah.
And of course, it happens on all sides. But you know, maybe
people hearing this will, will take note, you're being
portable.
One of the reasons that we do this show is to try and see
where the antidote. Yeah. Or in some cases, the anecdote.
That's, I think, more the anecdote than the antidote. Yes.
So on the other side, of course, you know, there's a how many
sealed indictments there are more than 100,000. Yeah, we're
getting close. Now. We're getting real close. Brennan
showed up because you know, now we have the Durham report. Oh,
it's got Oh, it's there's 1000s of sealed that hundreds of 1000s
of sealed indictments go into jail. Brennan shows up on think
CNN or MSNBC, of course, because he's paid. He's paid unpaid on
hardball. And so the allegation is, by the way, the New York
Times had an interesting article about the allegation that and
I'm summarizing, CIA knew what they wanted. And they just kept
poking and fishing and trolling until they got enough pieces to
put together to try and make this collusion Russian collusion
stick. And so, in this piece, the New York Times actually
buried buried the information that some of the stolen emails
that have been recovered included emails from President
Obama, as it's buried in that story, which is, of course,
should be a huge one,
be up high, to push that to the front to the bad guys are
corrupt, completely
buried and but here's Brennan appearing on the Christmas,
Chris Matthews to of course, laugh off this nut nutty
investigation.
Now the New York Times is reporting that the ongoing
investigation into the origins of the Russian probe itself also
appears to be driven by Trump's political interests. according
to people familiar, the US Attorney leading that inquiry,
John Durham, appears to be pursuing a theory that the CIA,
under its former director, John Brennan had a preconceived
notion about Russia, or was trying to get to a particular
result and was nefariously trying to keep other agencies
from seeing the full picture. However, FBI and NSA officials,
quote, have told Mr. Durham and his investigators that such an
interpretation is wrong. And based on a misunderstanding of
how the intelligence community functions, let me ask you why,
Mr. Director, how do you respond to this inquiry?
I think it's kind of silly. Is there a criminal investigation
now on analytic judgments and the activities of CIA in terms
of trying to protect our national security? I'm certainly
willing to talk to Mr. Durham or anybody else who has any
questions about what we did during this period of time in
2016. And so I don't know what I have not been I've not talked to
him yet. I understand that I'm on his list of people to be
interviewed. But it clearly I think, is another indication
that Donald Trump is using the Department of Justice to go
after his enemies in any way that he can. People are innocent
until alleged to be involved in some type of criminal activity.
Words to live by His own words, he's guilty words to live by Mr.
Brennan will play that, again.
People are innocent until alleged to be involved in some
type of criminal activity.
Yeah, that's the American way. Thank you. John Brennan. Yeah,
so the New York Times article, headline Justice Department is
investigating CIA resistance to sharing Russia's secrets now
they've kind of made it that well, we didn't want to share
because we don't want anything to leak out. And that's a good
one. And the funny and I don't have a clip, but I've heard many
people say that this, this special investigator, he's like
some dude from Connecticut. You know, Trump threw him in there.
It's like, who was this guy? It's worth looking up. John
Durham. And he is indeed a was appointed in February 2018 to
the district of Connecticut United States Attorney. But he's
known for leading an inquiry into allegations FBI agents and
Boston police had ties with the mob. That's the Whitey Bolger
case. Oh, yeah. 2005 CIA interrogation tapes destruction.
That is the current director of CIA was a Gina Haspel. What's
your name? Yeah. So that he investigated he's he's a crime
buster. He has done some significant cases. Significant.
Yeah. The way he bolts also the also the torture investigation.
Yeah, the, you know, the enhanced interrogation. Now,
that doesn't mean that this guy isn't, you know, I mean, I,
it sounds like he's a guy that can do the job. Yeah,
I'm not so sure that bar is clean. I mean, I keep seeing
people saying, oh, no, this is great. He's going to do it.
1000s of sealed indictments. No, no, no bars. Dad hired Jeffrey
Epstein at the school. He was principal over director. I mean,
his connections with Barr and Muller they work together.
Of course they did. These are cover up artists works together.
Eventually the
question is who's going to have one or two are going to go down
and everyone else will be saved? So there's going to be
sacrificial lambs.
But since you brought this up, I had one annoying clip. I Mazal.
Get it out of it. Oh, yes. We love annoying, annoying to me.
So I'm watching the PBS NewsHour. And they have marks,
Shields and Brooks Brooks is out. He's taking the day off.
And they put the guy from The Washington Post and who I
thought was on the Bill Maher show because they have exact
same voice. Coincidentally, there's a guy in the New York
Times who you were called out for is making the mistake even
though it's my mistake. And I should mention the fact that
they have the exact same voice and they were the same goofy.
They were the last meal. Yeah, yes. So they're both the same
kind of guy. But so but shields at the very end of the thing. I
got a tube. It's a two parter. But and this will begin relates
to everything you've just played. Shields says the
following. This is shields the worst. This is the worst part
one PBS and just listen to this. These guys and MARK SHIELDS is
82 years old. He's an old liberal. He can't they can't get
this out of their craw. They can't get it other craw. What is
it play the clip?
Mark? Just a few seconds.
A few seconds, Judy. I mean, his Amanda is pushing prosecutors to
prosecute James Comey and Andrew McCabe and intervenes. Mike
Flynn, and for Roger Stone, why righteous stone? I think there's
open speculation and very plausible Roger stones, the one
person that could tie Donald Trump to WikiLeaks and to the
Russians. In 2016. I mean, after all that investment to all that
investigation to me, he, that's what he did. That's what he was
lying about that he was the intermediary. And I think that
it's not out of loyalty or affection. I think it's out of
vulnerability. He's still concerned with that 2016
election, rather than worried about 2020.
I don't think that's true. There's no There's no defined
link between WikiLeaks and WikiLeaks and stone is there.
Well, yeah, I contacted him once in his possibly get some, some
relationship, but it's got nothing to do with anything.
This is all dreamed up. The Russia collusion thing. They
can't get it out of their craw. Trump is more concerned about
2016 and 2020. Yeah, right. You think that's true? What kind of
not are you? Well, he's spreading and you're getting by
the way, this guy is getting paid good money by PBS to to
spew this, this unbelievable, paranoid garbage. This is like
this is conspiracy theory. To The Max. It's unbelievable that
this would be on the air and
it's part of this. It's like a virus. It's part of the
sickness. He's spreading.
He's definitely part of it. But listen to the second part and
you can get a better clue and you get the resignation part of
it, which is what you've been observing the resignation that
we're we're all just subject to this tyrant. character with a
red hat.
Judy, how about how do you feel You're Susan Collins. If you're
Rob Portman, if you're Joni Ernst and said, Oh yes, we voted
to acquit, but he's going to change. He'll be chastened
he'll, it'll be chastened. I mean, this is this is the new
Chase and Trump. I mean, he's he's unburdened and unfettered
and scary.
Scary. Orange Man bad very scary. It's I'm laughing but
it's really sad. It's the this is PBS. These are these are
people that matter when they say stuff by the way. I didn't know
it was 82. We looks pretty a pretty spry rainy to I'll give
him that, Mr. Shields?
Well, yeah, I think he's erudite for 82. So there you have it. I
mean, except for the fact that he's, he's lost his marbles.
Yeah. And he can't think straight. And he's just a Trump
hater. And he, when he starts shaking when he talks about
Trump, I mean, these guys are just they're, they're unhinged.
Well, the what happened the way I see it is after the Senate
vote, and not guilty verdict, then it was like everyone just
went even though they knew it was going to happen. I guess
they still had some hope that maybe, you know, there were
there was some coalition and maybe Mitt Romney even said,
Hey, I'm going to do it. Let's see if I'm getting one else on
board or whatever happened. There was the letdown was much
larger than I expected. It would be for for certainly for media
types. I mean, I watched Rachel Maddow. I mean, I did, it wasn't
even clippable. It will take 30 minutes just for her to say
Boohoo. I mean, that's really what it came down to. And it's,
it's, it's disturbing, I feel bad.
Let me bet in law elements of your thing before you finish,
which is these are the people that are supposed to be decoding
things for the public at large. And they're supposed to be doing
it in an accurate way. But they're so blinded by their own
prejudice and bigotry that they can't do it. I mean, they're
supposed to be the ones telling us oh, here's what's going on.
And I go back to work. Now. That's what basically what the
news media is supposed to do. Here's what's going on. Now.
Your field should feel better, you can go back to work, you
know what's going on? That's it. But they can't even do that.
That's simplest of jobs. They can't do it.
Meanwhile, I believe it's only a trial balloon. But I pretty sure
I said that we needed to be on the lookout for Michael
Bloomberg to invite Hillary Clinton to be his vice
president. And that's exactly what the rumor was, according to
people familiar with the matter, which, which I took to be
ours, a million tweets about this. And they were going Oh,
you guys are right. I get some credit. I guess I don't remember
doing it. But you did. And they go on. And then they always play
the clip is Michael Blum wants Hillary she wants Hillary. But
but if you read what actually happened, it did all the reports
say he's considering Hillary, yeah, it's a trial. Does it mean
anything? I'm
considering Hillary, but I'm not arguing that if you've heard
what I said, No, I'm not joking about
you know, I'm talking to the public. That's all jacked up
about this.
It's a trial balloon. And I think it went over reasonably
well, actually.
I think it won't happen.
I think, Okay. I think it went over pretty well.
You're gonna get two people from New York to say, Well, no,
that's that's actually no unbalanced. That's
not even allowed. I think there's a there's a
constitutional issue for being from the same state.
I heard that too. But I don't see any evidence of it. And
besides that, you just have missed as you know, just take a
move to Arkansas for that week. Yeah. But it's beside the point.
There's no way that two new yorkers we already first of all
the all these liberals in particular bitch and moan about
Trump. He's a New Yorker. Were they going to get to now instead
of one? We had at least a little bounce with pence being from
Indiana. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, but it's ludicrous.
John, thank you. You're making my point. For me. It's
ludicrous. Why is it ludicrous look at who is saying they're
unhinged, they have lost their minds. So I mean, here's to
contract. We're not contract two clips, one from MSNBC one from
CNN. And this is really the title of these clips should be
what are we going to do about Bernie because they're already
massaging and positioning, what is going to happen? Now there
were some changes made to this process, the democratic primary
process, whereas the super delegates who are the elites who
screwed Bernie over and 2016 they don't come in until a
second round and no one has explained exactly what that
means, but from what I understand, you have to have
your 1500 delegates or whatever the exact number Brace, if you
don't have it, then it goes into a round of chat. And if we
don't, if we don't fix it, then we go into around another chat,
but that's when the super delegates come in. And so the
the goal, of course, is to have the super delegates or the
elites just determine who's going to run for the Democratic
Party. That's what that's what it is it look at look at who the
super delegates are. So here's Chuck Todd cast in the panel
talking about Bernie, this is a part
of the campaign that we never had to worry about before years
ago. Yeah. And I think the question becomes, what if we get
to the convention, and Bernie Sanders does not have anywhere
near a majority, but he has a plurality, he has 35 37% of the
delegates. And he goes to the convention says,
I want more primaries than anyone else. I have more
delegates than anyone else. I dare you to deny me the
nomination. super delegates. Right. You
don't have super delegates anymore. I mean, on
the first ballot, you don't have the members of Congress who
would be the elders. I mean, that was exactly the reform that
the Bernie Sanders people demanded.
You're way off is not the elders.
Elders. Oh, my goodness. And that was Andrea Mitchell. That's
Andrea Mitchell saying that she's an elder. Totally. She and
her hubby, Greenspan they are Yeah, they're
both in their 80s. And they're both elders,
they consider themselves to be the village elders, they will
take care of it. But oh, it's I have to wait a second round.
Let's see how CNN does.
16. Remember the last nominee to go in who actually had the
majority was John Kerry. If you remember 2008, Hillary had to
send her votes over. The same thing happened 16 Sanders had
the last one who's actually gotten this on the first ballot
people forget is John Kerry in 2004. But of course,
the change in rules relative to super delegates not getting a
say on that first ballot this time, but having a say for the
subsequent ballots, if it comes down to that, who knows?
This is more of a mythical thing. And the super delegates
surely doesn't. But let me say if someone goes in and has the
most delegates, and the super delegates change that that's a
disaster, Ghana,
I think all home. Yeah, but that's exactly what's going to
happen. And well, I
think you're correct. They're setting us up for this scenario.
Yep. That's why they're discussing it almost exactly the
same way as well as some memo went around
as as often does happen in these circles, so
they're setting us up so that so the convention they expect to be
a brokered convention. Now. I wonder, you know, I think Bernie
can beat when out right, but not if they're going to keep it not
a Bloomberg is involved in this is the guy who's going to screw
things up for everyone. Yeah, he's coming. He's not going to
debate because he probably can't debate
if we were advising him. We tell him not to debate do whatever
you can to not debate.
Yeah, that kind of bank roll. Just keep spending money. Don't
do it. Yes. And apparently there was somebody was talking about
in Virginia, where he's also dropping lots of money for his
campaign. He's also running those Obama ads, which is the
ones he's running those a lot here where
it looks like he's vice president. Vice President
is hilarious.
Well, we have the now already and I hate hate to burst your
bubble will will know by Tuesday. Biden is not going to
win South Carolina. He's just not and I can tell you that the
main problem is again, the spoiler. Michael Bloomberg, he
is out there with Mike for black America. I mean huge, huge
signs. He's meeting a DOS everywhere Mike Mike for blacks.
Mike way to go
and by the way, I want to mention I was I watched a Mike
for blacks event, Andy in the background is all blacks and
maybe one Chicano and then bounced, I started noticing the
backgrounds I've talked about
before I just want to savor this you said the blacks and one
Chicano it's just an era that I love John that's it was
anyone one guy and but it was all blacks and they're all like,
Adam, you know, the lot of a mustachioed they're all a little
older.
I saw a lot of whites in the black for America to a lot.
Yeah, I was gonna take I'm gonna take a screenshot of my look at
it again. But the one that really got me because I started
noticing the back was it I don't know if it was, I think it was
Reagan who first started doing this and their speeches where
they would put a background of people which they never used to
do, but you never saw that with Kennedy, Nixon, Eisenhower,
nobody. But Reagan started making us more showbusiness. He
put the background and people back. Yeah, he started by
putting military and then he just made it to everyday people.
And Trump has taken it to the next level. Trump always has at
least four women who are attractive or at least catch
your eye,
wearing the women for Trump shirt, they
got a they got a Trump hat and they got a Trump Trump shirt.
They have a Trump sign maybe there's usually one blonde who's
pretty good looking, and she's right there and get view like
round his ad. So you have to start looking at her. start
worrying stop watching. She's like a steamy scene stealer.
And rightfully so it's much better than, you know. Man bad.
Exactly.
So and there's a couple others usually and they're just so
enthusiastic and they're in there. They're very tend to be
in often are quite pretty. So I checked out Bernie's group
behind him. I'm telling you, if you look behind Anna Bernie
thing, this last one in particular. It's everybody's
over 70. And they're all old farts. It's like a ton of old
farts and old battle axes. And they're all behind Bernie.
shaking their fist every time Bernie says we got to stop the
1% I have a clip from Bernie's little thing here, which is
where I saw these battle axes.
Let me play a little jingle.
Why doesn't Bernie say Oh,
I don't that's the wrong one. I'm sorry. Nevermind. Nevermind,
my jingle.
What was it going to be whatever.
We had a song? I can't find it. Don't worry. Don't worry about
it. We'll just keep going.
Well, I don't see the Bernie clip on here.
You don't see it? No. Well, then why don't you let me just while
you're maybe looking.
I'm looking and looking. I'm not seeing it on here. Well, I
just wanted to say that Bloomberg is going all out.
He's, you know, as you said he's got he's got the ads where he's
vice president to Barack Obama. And he's getting endorsements.
Athos former Columbus Mayor Mike likes Mike. A big endorsement
from Michael Bloomberg, who has ignored early primary states and
focused on states like Ohio former mayor sounds like she
could be Jeff Cage's sister Michael Coleman said it his past
relationship working with Bloomberg. Those experiences
mayor of New York that has him sold on the billionaire
candidate.
The thing about being a mayor, you're the closest to the
people. People pick up the phone, they come to you to say
this is my problem. This is what's going on.
But it's Bloomberg time as mayor that has drawn criticism from
voters, particularly the city stop and first police policy
that disproportionately impacted people of color.
I think it's a fair criticism. But you know, the true test of
leadership is to own up to your mistakes, and to take
responsibility for the mistakes you've made in the past.
But some don't think he owned the mistakes soon enough. It
took years after his time in office for Bloomberg to
apologize for the practice. Coleman says he wishes the
apology came sooner, but still believes it's a sincere one and
believes African American voters who any democratic candidate
will need in 2020 should feel the same
not only as he owned it, he has said we're going to go after the
African American vote. And we're going to make a difference in
African American communities in a positive way.
There was one little bit of I don't know if you found the clip
yet. There's one bit of data
I'm not going to find I remember producing it, I just don't have
it on purpose.
So one bit of data, and I tried to clip it from Giuliani on
someone else's podcast, but it's just forget about it. It's not
where it'd be 20 minutes, and you still wouldn't get what he's
saying. Giuliani started stop question and frisk in New York
City. And it was very successful. And the numbers are
was what's interesting. The contrast between Giuliani and I
was in New York when Giuliani cleaned it up. And he did a
fantastic job. It was stop question and frisk. And they
stopped and questioned 100,000 people in a year, and 50% indeed
had a weapon on them. Were in the process of a crime
committing a crime, or had some reason to actually be frisked
and subsequently taken in 50%. And that was a very successful
program. When Bloomberg came in, key started it. It went from
stop question and frisk to stop and frisk. The no one remembers
that it was stop question and frisk. In fact, I think that's
that's one of the egregious parts of Bloomberg tape was that
he said, You got to throw him against the wall. Because he's,
you know, he's a horrible person thinking that and, but the
numbers is what bothers me. The numbers went up to 600,000
people stopped and frisk in New York on an annual basis, but
only 10%. So marginally a little bit more than the 100,000 with
stop question and frisk, but he just threw it all against the
wall totally harassed citizens, and, and really got the same
results but but six times as many altercations between the
law enforcement and citizens. Bloomberg is a dick. He does not
care is the Nazi P is
he does not give a gender. Now think it's their savior he
does not give. Exactly. He doesn't give a shit about
anybody. I don't think he cares about anybody no matter what
color they are. It's just that you know, they stopped drinking
sugary drinks because you know, I got to tax you because you're
too dumb.
He also took salt off the table if you remember this
because you're too dumb to regulate your own diet Stupid,
stupid people dumb. That's that's who they are now all God
about very disturbing, very disturbing,
more than disturbing. And they see him as a great Savior,
because he's got deep pockets. He's got money. Yes, that's the
worst. He is definitely. Again, again, we have to stop for a
split second and realize that a lot of this slant is because of
the money and because of the media and because of the media's
need for that money. Absolutely. So we may be, you know, fooling
ourselves with his popularity seeming li what it is because
the media is going to push the guy promote the guy because the
media gets money, lots of money, he has
single handedly raised the price of advertising rates around the
country.
Yes, he's buying up time left and right. And now if he goes to
a couple of primaries, or I guess it'll be in a couple. He's
gonna be in the cabinet. And he just bombs out and he just as
I've done just wasting my money pulls up, boom, the roof look
cave in and the he'll be exploring.
Well, you know what, what everyone is hoping is that he
will continue just like in 2018. And when he poured 100, at least
$100 million into 24 House races and 23 of them flipped from
Democrat to Republican. I mean, it can be done. I mean, from
Republican to Democrat, it can absolutely be done. Americans, I
love us. But we elect our leaders, by representatives the
same way we buy our washing powders, like I saw that ad
again. I was talking to lunch, I was talking to my Mexican
friend, Mexican American Well, he's he's, he's not American
yet, but he's Mexican. And I always Mexican. And I always
like to say Okay, so what's going you know, I'm Jose, he
wasn't the way to say Jose, what's going on? who are who are
people talking about? He says, Well, Mexicans and that's our in
our language. That means illegals in the construction
business in Austin. So they don't they don't like Trump.
They do not like Trump says Mexican Americans. He says like
my son. They kind of have some, not everything, but they'd like
some Trump. And I said, Okay, how about Bernie Sanders said,
Yeah, young people are excited, but older people not so say How
about Michael Bloomberg? Yeah. Michael Bloomberg. Yeah, I hear
good things. How about Pete Buttigieg? Who? Said Pete?
Buttigieg? No, I said the gay guy. No, no, hasn't even heard
of him. So Bloomberg COMM With the amount of advertising and
exposure he has been able to purpose. He is already beyond
Buttigieg in my, of course, my completely scientific but very
small pool of one source one small pole.
Pole of one pole.
Well, no, he was representing a whole slew of people. Chicanos,
actually, I hear they're like to be referred. So I really think
blue Bloomberg things got legs, and they're all in and that
they're hoping and I don't know. So long way to say, I think
there is real consideration for Bloomberg Hillary, I know you
disagree with me, but they're unhinged in any other way. So
why would this be so crazy to think that they wouldn't go all
in for anything, anything to get Trump out? Because if we don't,
even if we do, we need a strong person who will then drag him
from the White House.
You need some bruisers to get him out of there. And with
that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the
morning to you the man who put the sea and Chicanos John
in the morning to you Mr. M. Curry also in the morning all
ships to see boots on the ground feet in the air subs underwater
and all the names and nights out there
in the morning to our trolls and the troll room. There had no
agenda stream.com Little brazen today, but at least one let me
see how many do we have in there? This is the holiday
weekend. And Oh, not bad. 1350 Trolls.
This is pretty good for a holiday. Yeah. Not bad. It was
the kind of advice I mentioned the newsletters kind of a four
day holiday.
Yes, it is with Presidents Day tomorrow and and I guess in some
places people actually get valentine's day off. I'm not
familiar with this, but you
know, people take it off. People take it off. I mean, I used to
do that. You take The day off again making a four day take a
sick day on you know the
Oh sick day okay I gotcha day and then now there is no
coincidentally
I'm always taking my sick days off just before a three day
weekend.
There is a controversy severe controversy controversy with the
art for episodes. Well, allow me allow me to read what came in.
So we chose a piece of art which we both liked. I'm ready for
oligarchy the choice is clear there is none and it was a note
that looked like a original piece. We didn't actually check
it that we often will try
did I did an image search Oh, nothing
I didn't. Well, you can imagine I got a note from comic strip
blogger. Yeah, correct. At this 14th February and Eurotrash
content and now but yesterday was unlucky number day so I was
not submitting artwork yesterday at all. However, I've noticed
that artwork that one is 100% stolen, not even mashup proof.
It links to it so you can skip giving credit to the thief. I
myself I'm creating original art using two apps where I pad and I
use elements from internet for mashup don't give credit.
Funny he got credit for that, that that stolen art some time
back when he had the Santa Claus if you remember that?
Well interestingly, this came from a website titled called
Liberty mechanic at Liberty maniacs.com. And I got a tweet
to say right after the comic strip blogger tweet, it says,
Hey, this art is taken from my brother site Liberty Maniacs
calm, but we're both no agenda listeners. So it's very meta
value for value. So that to me, that blew my mind kind of I
tried
to get a hold of McCall is the artist and McCall. And he I
never got beat ever got back to me. I told him but we wouldn't
wanted to do was, you know, it was a mistake. Yeah. And we
would just plug his site, Liberty maniacs.com He's a
libertarian, by the way. And he was sued over that art.
Yes, he actually fought for it. Yeah, I'm sued by the Hillary
campaign,
because it's derivative of one of the campaigns for Hillary.
And
but they won or the there was no, no, as far as
I can tell. It's one of those hollow suits, you know, is a
threat. Yeah, but
but they were what I liked about it is first of all, now the art
is credited to Chai Pradesh. And, you know, that remains
still this way. I should change that. I I just looking at shaibu
dishes, other submissions. I think we actually looked at and
said, Well, it kind of hit the mark with this one. And the
other ones. Yeah, well,
yeah. Comic Strip blogger didn't make one point he said he looked
at his other works. This is just generally speaking artists have
a style. And sometimes it's very, it's a big style that has
a lot of range. And sometimes usually they don't have much
range. The style is usually pretty straightforward. And and
if they then so they make their they get theirs are chosen
because of the hit them. They hit it on the mark was within
their style. Yeah. This guy's style is not this. No, no, it
was. It was all and that's what comic strip bloggers said
because he knows this too, which is the style is everything. And
so this is not this is not the same guy. And okay, well, we are
sorry about that error. It doesn't happen. It just happened
twice, I think or three times what
I like the most is that a these guys like Hey, no problem. By
the way. We're both no agenda listeners like wow, I mean, now
now we're bad and nationwide. I love that. Well,
it kind of makes sense. Because at first I was surprised when I
saw the art. I went to the website I said this guy should
be no agenda listeners of stuff. Yeah,
exactly. And lo and behold, there you have it. Now
anyway, we'll we'll put we'll post there. It's easy to look it
up. It's Liberty, Liberty, Liberty. maniacs.com Liberty
Maniacs, and they got a lot of nice shirts.
They do. We do. Yeah. So wait, anyway, no agenda art
generator.com. Have you talked to Paul couture recently? I'm
trying to get a hold
of him. Send him a note because somebody could not get on their
own account. Yes. I know. Paul might be out of commission at
the moment. So we'll I haven't heard a cry. I've
been concerned about the art generator. And I'm going to
raise my concern again. Because people can't register new
accounts. They can't participate. It's hurting the
show. Yeah. So we need someone to take that into consideration.
Yeah, Paul will be back. I hope so. It comes in and out. out of
commission every so long
why it's a great resource no agenda art generator.com It's
it's important to the to the show. So I hope that we can
already know I'm sure people be happy to help him or take over
some admin duties. Yeah, well
I put that out there he switched it over from Drupal the sun
Mel's and I think it should get probably a
glitch go please don't even go there with me glitch glitch
well, so no agenda are generated are calm is one of the many ways
that producers contribute to the value for value network. That's
how the show runs. I mean, it'd be impossible to pay artists
hey, I want 15 guys to pitch us for the album artwork. Yeah,
that would not imagine. Just like you know, we don't toss
stuff over our shoulder to be edited by someone else or edited
at all. Really. You got to do it yourself. That's the only way to
survive in this business. Little tip, pro tip pro podcaster tip.
You got to do it yourself if you want to survive. We also like to
thank our executive producers and Associate Executive
producers who come in with their higher donations for the
episode. And we mentioned them more at the beginning of the
show, pretty much like credits of a Hollywood blockbuster,
which each episode of the no agenda show is. So who can we
thank as our executive producers for today, it's at least
as long as a blockbuster. The Irishman. Yeah, Irishman is
maybe a half hour longer. Sean McCall in Bloomington, Minnesota
starts us off at $333.33. He's got a note here, ITM I tweeted
at him regarding a fella pretty great. Oh, did we get her steal
their art, but they gave us money. This is life is good in
America.
This is only on the no agenda show and probably only in
America.
Yeah, I'd say I'm overdue for a contribution. So I thought now
was a good time to show that there's no ill will on this end.
In fact, I'm sure a plug of announce announcer voice Liberty
maniacs.com. Here is easily far more valuable than any paid ad
on the social feedbags a blurry vision today. Yeah, you're got
you guys have brought together our best friends into a text
group who all listen to no agenda and talk about the BS
news. That said I like to call out Mike. I'm sorry, that was
Mike. Calling.
Peter. Eric.
I think Mike is the guy who was the artist, Scott, aka woody
provided the show art a few weeks back. So I think that
counts as value for value. So he's not going to call him out.
Thank you both for the persistence and sanity. It's
changed our lives for the better Sean in Bloomington.
Oh, that's so nice. Shawn. Thank you. Thank you very much.
So so nuts and
adding executive producer to his credit list for today. We really
appreciate it. Thanks for y'all being cool.
Curiously, John Waldorf in Sunrise Minnesota nuts is next.
Oh 303 with the same amount of money huh? 333 33 very strange.
Random Number theory, ITM chances are early second
donation on the road to the round table two thirds of the
way there. I produced show 1189 and had planned to wait till
summer for my next installment but when the when the Maynard's
Lumberyard receipt, receipt, hit three, three 3.33 I knew it was
time. That's a lot of stuff.
A lot of people and they'll often tweet pictures when they
get a table 33 parking spot 33 receipt or $30 tell ya it's
usually a sign from the universe. Yes, saying
hey, those guys are doing no agenda. They need your help.
Anyway, he says he's digging the coverage of the sweet and sour
sickness.
Oh, here it is. This is what I read. I kind of missed the Euro
updates. Maybe I missed
the Euro updates. There you go. Maybe Adam needs to make a trip.
Again, going out my nephew's already gone too much. Kurt and
Matt is douchebags two of them that was Matt Okay. Much needed
health karma for my dad and F cancer for Becky. top it all off
with a China is asshole and a just send your cash. Love you
guys. Keep up the good work, pitching slaves. Sean Waldorf,
Esquire.
I'm trying to think what it's not just Send you cash it's I
haven't played that one a long time isn't it water?
Yeah water blankets.
I don't remember
it was Bush by the
way No but I would if I couldn't find it anymore
No This never happened
let me do the look for that now that's it's completely gone I
don't know what happened to it well let's do the here we go
you've got karma China. Oh it's gone.
Dennis Garcia's next on the list we'll get back to that one later
333 30 threes in San Francisco I'm turning 33 Today February 15
and decided to get myself a no agenda producer ship thanks for
all the media deconstruction you do you keep my amygdala small
and healthy. Please contribute I'm sorry please continue to
keep an eye on Europe there you go number two right after the
other one. This is again in spirit random number. France in
particular is having a rough time I do have a France clip of
one that no one will deal with this guy actually
I called like, pulled a couple of Europe clips to
the protests haven't stopped since the yellow vest started to
demonstrate I'm also becoming a knight see accounting. I think
he's on the list. I would like to be known as Sir Did pronounce
deed sir deed to deed data janitor of the Novi Valley Can I
have some ribeye and bar gon at the roundtable but also you need
some relationship karma.
We're going are going yeah, that's for Golden golden.
Yeah. Are golden is burgundy. He wants some burgundy wine. He
wants some Pino
okay ribeye and we'll go I thought you said oh, yeah,
ribeye and we're gonna go I have to remember this stuff because I
gotta serve it at the table for them. Yes, relationship calm. Of
course, you can have that. You've got karma.
And by the way, regional pronunciations may vary. It
could be more Gonyea somewhere. But I don't think so embargoed
whatever. in Bordeaux, they pronounce the T's that the
French normally don't speak. So when you say you get corrected
if you go when I first went to France, I guess you could speak
French is the 70s. Can I just say trawl sank? You know what I
mean? 35. Yeah, they would, they would look at you and stare at
you. And they do the typical French correction. Tron test
sank.
Oh, really, I learned Tom sank. I didn't.
That's that's Parisian. And they needed to Friesians in Bordeaux.
In fact, when I first was in Bordeaux, I'm driving around a
rented car that I rented in Paris, that I drove down to
Bordeaux. And so I'm driving around, you know, I'm being told
to say Toronto. And yeah, so you're clearly you're irked
you're driving around or Well no, I'm driving me off the road
left to right these guys are punking me and give me the
finger I'm thinking I'm a terrible driver. I was talking
to one of the board Good morning guys. Darren he says I was
expressing my disgust with the drivers he says really since
people don't drive like that around here and then he looks at
my cars Oh you've got Paris plates ah ah there's our IDs
won't number at the beginning of the playtest where the where the
cars from and I had I was driving around a Paris car and
so they
that's why yes by the way I found this your st your cash.
Cash we can take that I don't even remember that one. It's not
the one I was looking for. We have so much
remember that one either. Never heard is a longer while we do
remember we do have Associate Executive producers and the
first one is Jacob forest. Wait. He needs
relationship karma. Oh yes sorry nice Dennis. Dennis Garcia
Denise Dennis I guess one any ones?
But it says Dennis my
relationship karma with a goat twist I think it'd be
appropriate today you've got
is probably pronounced Dennis is a guy. Jakob Forrester Jacob
Forrester. 26969 Jake Forrester Hebron Kentucky jingles Don't
eat me bro. Jaiden we must eat the babies. That sounds pretty
good. Jaya is asshole This is the clips he wants. Random Allen
go karmi got too many clips. We
don't read it. We don't actually we don't actually have an eat
the baby's ice. Oh, it never was an ice. Oh, it's a minute. 50 So
I'm going to Hell yeah, don't
eat the babies. No, it's out.
Sorry. Can't can't do that.
Now John is my first Oh John. Where's that? Oh Adam and John I
see Adam and John is my first donation in this I would like to
be properly deduced we can do that. You've been de deuced
pronounce it deduced to do I was hit in the mouth this past
summer by my brother Sir Knight Knight, who is a douchebag as I
have yet to hear him donate since I began listening. Well,
wait a minute, he's a knight. How can you be a douchebag?
I don't understand. Sir Knight Knight. He clearly is not a
douchebag
well, but he asked his brothers call him out so you better pre
run it and then then fight that. I like to also call it my future
brother in law boof as Kaz as a douchebag. I hit him in the
mouth months ago and have yet to hear from him in the form of a
donation get it on man. Anyways, as a newer listener, I truly
enjoy all the info saying that you both provide on both
Thursdays of the week. At first I was a bit confused on the
inside jokes and topics however, he picked up on it pretty quick.
He's got it the more I
listened and the easier it was to catch on. One item I still
struggle with are the lucky numbers. If you could make any
time to expand on this, I would greatly appreciate it a few
things. Okay. A few things I enjoy the most. It's a long
story. A few things I enjoy the most about the ins and outs of
the show are the way Adam says the word major.
No, I stole it from you,
John John butchering any European name. No,
I'm Dutch. No, it pretty much any name.
Well, I am butchered your name. Although, before I began to show
a decade ago or more, I prided myself with the ability to
pronounce almost anything.
And I have to say that when I hear you mentioned kind of
offhandedly visions a little blurry Today I'm happy I'm like,
Oh, this will be great. Can't wait to hear how you read stuff.
And the non triggered community that the show has helped
cultivate I truly believe that this if there are more no agenda
listeners, the world would be a much better place. We agree by
the way totally. I am trying to spread the word about the show
as much as I can. I recently shared animated na to my dad and
and my manager about Trump's 16,000 lies according to the
WaPo they both enjoy the commentary and the visuals
provided by Dame Jennifer. I figured I can ease them both in
this way. He's in both into the show. I never listened to any
other podcasts before. But I am so grateful my brother hit me in
the mouth so I can enjoy the best podcast in the universe.
According to the molar report. Nice catching on. Thanks. Thanks
Chris. 2020 goal is to gain knighthood attend a meet up

the good work. And Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself.
Okay, so we don't have the must eat babies and but I think
everyone else everything else I can do for you. So thank you
very much, Jacob. And meaning do you think you've got in your
skin you've got karma. Thank you,

great work and thank you. Thank you, Shawn. from Salt Lake City.

to assume Zachary McLean and Cottage Grove, Minnesota nuts,
to 20 to 22 lot of Minnesotans and today they're listening for
stories about Amy feeling inadequate ITM feeling
inadequate, not donating and a few weeks go chefs. Oh, he wants
that jingle go chef. We

John there goes to Zephyr
also something doesn't exist. Oh wait, there is one no, that's
not that's not true. Um, hold on. Let me let me check there

yours yeah Peterson Yeah.
Okay, Bernie I have all the power the power or the president
joke when that's a good thing. Yeah, that's a good we had a big
debate about that when I did it for him to show mixer last show.
And a real time mud flex check from John Holon. Oh boy they're
bigger than ever there looks like the tide must be out oh
yeah tall horrible just mud mud everywhere all you can see is my
black knight yet to claim and we'll wait not necessarily I
preach the scam of tests by the way you can wait all you want
that doesn't mean you're a black night. I preach the scam of
Tesla on Twitter and freedom to the Zero Hedge. Elon Musk killed
Epstein Yeah,
do we need to disclaim that this so we don't get sued by the
things sell by the estate? Something like that.
Hi, humor.
Yes, it is indeed Hi humor no jingles? No no karma got one
jingle for you.
I'm the President of the United States. I have all of the power
Yes you do. You do Bernie
also one of the the jingle
I play sefer I played it.
Oh you play but you played it in line is linearly okay. Good
enough. Joe. Brother. Joe
WSSC all the
sassy pitches a little blurred? 205 10 I'm excited excited to
take part in the dame driving gift my wife her Dame hood on
the no agenda nation. No lady Cara of the wicked pug is an
amazing mother wife and I'm quite happy to have her at the
round table pickles and sticky green at the round table please.
What? Sticky green? I don't know. Okay, from doesn't say
I'm probably some local so I'm putting in the order right now.
There's $150 for the dame Dr. Accounting below and 55. Ken for
the make Chris Wilson a dude. I'm sorry, Duke drive. Oh, is
this songs are totally rad. Somebody's gonna have to be Hey,
Chris, are you keeping track of that? Keep track of this Chris
20. Otherwise, you're never gonna get it. I would like to
ask a few questions and hopefully add some content. I
saw a headline on Fox News that the helicopter company of the
flight where Kobe died, was not cleared. For the inclement
weather. Is this real? That we did a whole thing on this
anatomy, I think covered probably better than anybody in
the news networks, especially Fox. Seems to me if you're
cleared to fly weather shouldn't matter since it can sneak up on
you mid flight. And
you should listen to that episode. Because the second part
of your your sentence there means you probably didn't listen
or understand. No, they did not
do we don't have the episode number handy. Somebody in the
chat room might.
It's they did not. It's a part 135 which means they can do
helicopter services, but not on instruments. And that is pretty
much 99% of all helicopter transport companies. Were really
ones that operate and lease them out. They don't have that. So
yes, but it doesn't. That's why you need to listen to it.
Because the situation that took place. It was Mistakes were made
way before he got into the weather. You don't just get in
weather and like, Oh, I'm on instruments I'll live now.
So there were other issues with these many of the nature of
customers in that type of service. That was the post
interest. Yes, exactly. It's something you don't We don't
consider. I must ask for clarification. He continues
regarding your explanation of dimensions A versus B in a
recent show. I thought dimension a was Fox News believers and
dimension B was CNN and MSNBC no dimension a is reality.
There you go. Reality.
Dimension B is is unreality and it could be on Fox News. It
could be on CNN, all of those people are over in dimension B.
Dimension b can be crazy on both sides of the political spend.
Yes, we point that out quite all the time. But there is a base
reality this is you know the reality. Isn't the show teaching
us to be stragglers No. For anything you don't want to be
his straggler the dimensions you want to be solidly in the
reality dimension. Okay, is this not right? No. In a previous
dimension segment you made it seem like the show was dimension
a and the M five M is demand shouldn't be? Yes, yes, you go.
You got that part, right? What if someone came to your door one
day and had proved that they were your brother or sister?
Would you slam the door in their face after saying, Do you know
where your data is now slave? What is this this sentence that
I reading this wrong?
What if someone came to your door one day and had proof? They
were your brother or sister? Would you slam the door in their
face? After saying Do you know where your data is? Now? It's
like, I'm not quite sure this math thing has to do with the
2023. And me, maybe
I have no idea what it means. Anyway. Bye. I wouldn't say
that. Anyway, this concludes my questions. The last one was
pretty odd. And will you just what happens when you straddle?
This concludes my questions. I'll leave you with the fact
that I love this podcast MoeFactz.com.
Just going back to the question about the magic numbers, that we
didn't actually answer that 33 is the magic number. And we just
noticed a long time ago that whenever something was weird in
the news 30 The number 33 is always mentioned for no apparent
reason. And it's Yeah, and you just start to notice it cropping
up. Now there's also 42, which is the most important number in
the universe. For that I,
I pointed to the answer to everything, and the answer is
the universe. Thank you. For that I point you to the
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy,
and is also 11 and seven, which are lucky numbers, and A is the
Chinese lucky number. So an 88 is even more lucky. 888 is even
more lucky and 8888 is even more like the license plates in Hong
Kong are sold for millions of dollars with those numbers on
there.
So the interesting thing about numbers is once we started doing
value for value, it didn't take long before people started
sending codes in their donation numbers. Yeah, such as Jews like
to send something with 18 in it very lucky for them and they do
that you know it weddings, bar mitzvahs, Bat Mitzvahs, it's
like $18.18 you pretty stingy but okay. To everyone has a
relationship to a number and when it's an executive or
Associate Executive Producer ship then that is often
explained to us why that is important.
Exactly. And we are all when we started noticing it was like
there's a pension for numerology amongst the listeners of this
show. And
every really everybody has something with everybody in the
world has a favorite number
is probably true, but we exploit it
That's right, we exploit it.
We just be honest about it. We exploit it. And with and it's
turned out to work out which is even more interesting. Yes.
People like they liked these numbers. Anyway. And then if you
get a bill for $33.33 Yes, talented cause the cosmos the
trigger. Yep. Christian Allen is our last Associate Executive
Producer. I'm assuming I'm pronouncing that correctly.
Maple Ridge BC $200. My Tristan is 16 on Monday and he and as
asked me to donate to no agenda last year for him as well. Yeah,
helping him work towards knighthood. He and I both love
no agenda and he would donate on his own if he was working below
is his letter. I love this. I please have some karma for me
and my family as well. If I'm if it is all right, a few Django
requests. They are rubber lizer George Clooney is a spy and
Vladimir's, don't worry, be happy if Putin. Also please add
me to the birthday list as my birthday is on Monday. Thank you
so much for the great podcasts you produce every week, twice.
I'll always be checking on Wednesday or Saturday to see if
there's a new episode because I always look forward to
listening. It's always a new episode. I'm always learning
about topics not covered in the news or in school, either for
that matter, like no How old are friend is here for that. I want
to thank my parents 16
turns 16
Oh 16 da Yeah. I want to thank my parents for being the best I
could ever ask for always being there for me and teaching me
important life skills. Without them I wouldn't be here and I
wouldn't I would have very little direction in my life.
Well, yeah, that's nice. Let's keep up the amazing work sign.
Tristan. There you go. Yeah, we do have we do have one make good
I wanted to read did he? Yes for jingles or anything?
Yes, he did. And I'm I'm looking for the number station. The
rebels are out to another one.
Oh, that one? Yeah, that's a good one.
Yeah, it's a good one if I could Find it. What the heck is going
on with me today? That doesn't? Yes, and even if I look for
rubble iser I got lots of rubble but I don't have the it's named
something weird I know that see Mike I feel really stupid enough
anyway I will work on the other ones first what do we have any
wanted to regular karma?
George Clooney is a spy app that yeah, and don't worry be happy
got that and George Clooney is a spy don't know you've got karma.
It's just something's wrong. I mean, even the Clooney is a spy
but was the wrong one. What is going on? Did someone touch my
machine?
Wasn't me. Mars aren't that long. You have one make good
donation notary which is from 1216 Miss Jamie see? She says
I'm writing this note because the donation show 1269 was a two
two and a $14.33 cent donation that apparently lost his
accompanying note. Apparently Pay Pal does not like a line of
emojis followed by Cliff Notes version of Warren Piece. And
this was a night that she's on the knighting list. I checked
that she's meant to be knighted on but she's gonna be knighted
today. If she wanted to be a black knight, but that's not our
fault. So it wasn't she doesn't get it. I told her that and
she's okay. Yeah. Oh, I just be the lady of the highway. Anyway.
Given the federal government's having classified piloting a 40
ton vehicle amid a sea of, of insane four wheel drivers, hell
bent on killing themselves a safety sensitive function, thus
making me eligible for random drug testing. I hereby request
sausage and sauerkraut at the round table.
Okay, sausage and sour. I think we've had that before the round
table.
And now maybe it makes sense. This is a classic. I also have
two questions for Adam. Okay. In the propagate jingle. Why do
they say new water order?
I think they say New World Order.
That's what I thought. She's hearing new water. So I think
you're I think you're weird miss hearing. And when you give karma
with a twist of goat what part of the goat are you twisting
to use your imagination?
Yeah, you can tell by the sound Hello? Inquiring minds want to
know no jingles but I could use some patience karma for dealing
with the suicidal four wheelers out there. Running the I 35
through the construction in Austin. It's the worst. Yes,
it really is
Jamie of the highway.
Yes now and she isn't she a ham as well.
But yeah, she says 70 threes Yeah
73k Five ACC still not able to find that the darn globalizer
that's really bothered but I did find the correct Clooney and she
wants a karma which is still I just want to play the Cooney one
since we did have the right one. Does she need anything else for
this make good? Just rageous karma good karma? What is it
good karma or?
No? I don't she didn't say good karma. Okay, George Clooney.
Is a spy. just catching up? You've got karma.
So let's say stop the show for a second and ask you what was it?
What why what was labeled with change?
I found it and I also found out why I couldn't find it. And this
is this is a good tip for everybody. This is this is yes.
A good tip. People will all and this is legacy stuff. People. I
just was like what are these guys? Like? Are you with the
Fuji is you just gonna repeat everything I say yes in the
background because it's important legacy legacy clip.
Yes, it is important. If you send me a clip, please leave the
spaces if you're going to in the in the file name. A lot of
people will do underscores or Oh, That's old school like
hackers. So you do that each word is capitalized. So the
reason why I couldn't find this is I'm looking for the string.
And of course, this is regular expressions that I'm using. And
in order to get some reasonable hits and not a huge list, I know
it's like numbers number station, but this is all written
together. No agenda number station all all One word so I
will change that now after I play it in the standby 3333 33
or other lizer out that's what it was. And that does happen so
then if you just I'm looking for whole words when I went that's
the way the search is set up. So long way of saying hey, just
just send it to me with Spaces Spaces are valid characters No.
Nowadays should
not on Pay Pal, but otherwise, yes, that'll be very nice.
Anything else? Was that it?
No, I wanted to Yeah, we want to thank all these folks for
producing show. What is it? 1217 Well,
17 That's right. And we will
that's the heavy lifting we just went through
Yeah, yeah, it's gonna be much shorter. The second one will be
back of course with more deconstruction on Thursday at
this point that he is the first or second Thursday of the week.
And I thought that'd be just before we go to Florida and
Sunday will actually be from Florida so doing a meet up there
and more about that later. But the point is, if you'd like to
support us it is value for value we like crazy numbers just
explain it to them Go to bora.org/and Now let's see if
you two here new water order our formula is this we go out we hit
people in the mouth not even close to water. I think you
could hear it now if you want to you could hear me right I
could get just because of the word water in that case, it came
through clear I don't know what
happened. Certainly an interesting an interesting miss
here. I want to thank all officer wall wall wall wall wall
who well, who is from Deutschland Hello, Deutschland.
Adam, John air being a producer of the no agenda show and at the
same time a member of the Content Marketing Association in
Germany called the CMF. The Content Marketing forum, I came
up with an idea. I would like to donate the submission to the
best of content marketing award for the German contest. Yes, I
would like to submit the animated no agenda show as a
YouTube series to promote the no agenda show. I'll fill out all
the forms etc. Cover up cover all expenses as a way to hit
people in the mouth. What do you think should I proceed? I said,
Yes. I didn't even ask you, Jonathan. Yes, let's do it right
away.
I didn't have to ask me. And I think it's no one I'd say of
course, you'd say yes.
What a great idea awards. It's a great. Don't get me started on
awards. Have you followed the latest controversy? No. So
there's been I think two or three different Podcast Awards.
And yeah, I think I Heart Radio has their own Podcast Awards.
It just just like Playboy used to give awards to its writers. I
mean, come on, right. So
there used to be something called the podcast Academy. I
don't I don't think I'm a member. But I do remember they
put me in the hall of fame. I remember that somehow some other
some other podcast network has decided to resurrect the podcast
Academy and subsequently do awards. And the the thing that
was interesting as this was announced, partially in a
Bloomberg article where let me see if I can I actually have it
here. If this is Bloomberg, it's very funny actually. Yes,
Bloomberg. Podcast producers are creating their this is
Bloomberg, Bloomberg, you know, owned by the guy who's who's not
really running. Podcast producers are creating their own
version of the Oscars. The new the newly formed podcast Academy
plans to hold golden mic awards in early 2021. Hernan Lopez,
Founder and Chief Executive Officer of podcasting, startup
wondery, did they raise money, didn't wonder he may raise like
a ton of money, maybe wants to create the Academy Awards of
podcasting. Lopez has recruited 10 of his peers to form the
podcast Academy. Huh, did you did you get a memo?
Yeah, I guess we're not peers.
Now. A nonprofit group modeled after similar organization
organization. trends in film, TV and music, the association will
host a new award show the golden Mike's in 2021 to honor the top
shows and crafts people in on demand audio. And I think this
is where it comes. Born in the halls of Public Radio.
Podcasting has emerged as one of the I know what
exactly is Johnny Come Lately suddenly? Or where it all came
from?
No, this is this is Bloomberg. And you know, I'm just saying
there. Bloomberg is claiming that public radio had something
to do with the origin story. No, no.
Born in the halls of Public Radio.
I'm saying yes. Foolish shit. Let's put it that way. Yeah, go
on.
Well, so the article is, you know, it's just kind of goes
downhill from there. But it's based on an interview with him.
So of course, you got all the all
the old schooling came out of the ISA hack from Public Radio.
Is he may be I don't know, might be Hey, I might hack from Public
Radio.
That's a good point. That's a good point. Anyway, I just
wanted to
say public radio, you know, they get to prom with public.
No, no, no, let's not even do that. Let's just talk about
awards. Yeah, if I can just say, Fuck awards. I mean, seriously,
I love awards.
I like being the award that really meant something to me was
the art Marconi award in the Netherlands. Because it was it's
a long established true Academy of broadcasters. And it was for
my contribution to broadcasting. So
now there was fuck awards, except the one you won now. And
it's an elitist award. It's only something that's been
established. It's like a big shot award. But screw the rest
of them. So they just have no other awards. Correct. You won
one of the current awards, you can possibly Yeah,
that's exactly why I bring it up. No, my accent No, my point
is that awards are meaningless. Please look at award shows. If
you really think this is going to make a difference in anyone's
life. Look at the ratings, the number of people don't care
about awards. It's just a sad ploy to commercialize your show.
And I have when I was when I received my award, it was not
for my show. It was not for the no agenda show was something
else. And so now they're going to have all these categories.
And this is where it gets a little more interesting.
You plugged the show I hope
you saw the the acceptance speech can't remember it. I
thank you. I didn't think the show I thank you. I did not
promote the show. Well, thank you for thanking me, but yes,
okay. And unfortunately, I forgot to thank my my wife and
my daughter, it was pretty. I did think Medicaid, you know, I
made bad, bad, big, bad choices. In my acceptance speech. It was
it was a rush job. You need a card. But checklist. The biggest
Oh, I'm reading back to the back to the article, the biggest
award shows become an industry unto themselves, with
consultants getting paid millions of dollars to help win
awards. There are months of campaigning and hundreds of
millions of dollars in advertising. And the payoff is
measurable. Sales of the latest Grammy winners jumped 100%. So
it's just like, it's a circle jerk. And, and here's the best.
It's like we want to celebrate the people behind the mic who
who produce and write the
words, they just wait a minute, I got a whole lot. So what did
the article says the following these awards are commercial
garbage, and they take a lot of work to win one of them because
you have to hire consultants and experts and yes, you got to load
up, then then we give an award to the stem guy who we're
honoring, because he's good at his job. Now, I mean, there's
something missing from this, the logic here, if you're gonna give
awards to people that are good at their job, you don't need all
the DIS accoutrements you don't need all these consultants and
and all the rest of it a day. Okay, I'm sorry, I don't even
know what I'm talking about. It's just irksome.
It's just a ward to Qantas stupid. No, they're
not stupid. They're very valuable. They they take places
on a mantle, your conversation starters. There's a lot of value
to an award.
You're talking with the actual award award, having it in your
hands the award. Yeah. All right. It's just podcasting.
Podcasting is not the same as the music business or television
or movie. It is, by definition, not a mainstream medium. So
there are hundreds of 1000s of podcasts. And you're only going
to honor you're only going to honor the ones that are on the
wondery network or the I Heart Network. Yeah, yeah. It doesn't
really
serve cider scale.
I'm saying this scam. That's what I wasn't saying it for that
matter. Just I got drawn into this conversation. I didn't
reply to the thread at all. But it's like, oh, adding Adam
curry. I'm sure he wants no, no, no, no, you know what's good. I
want Joe Rogan March 3, that's going to help the show. Don't
need an award. What happened to the web? He's gone. What
happened to not there? John? Did it completely bankrupt. The
whole thing is done. The web is is over. I didn't know they went
bankrupt. Pretty much the Streamys. Same thing.
This I never heard of the Streamys. Is that is that was
that in from the urologist? Yes. Yes. Yes. You have the Streamys
of urologist.
You too can become a Streamy. The Streamys. And I should
probably write that down as consider that as a new category.
The Streamys. Yes, for those of you who have Shurflo
though we won the podcasting podcasting award.
Yeah, back then was new show. Yeah, back when it was still
when it was important when it counted when the people were
voting on it.
Yeah, not a bunch of schlubs.
In some Academy, we know nothing about my goodness. All right.
Before we go a step further. I have to do two European clips
because people are IRQ that we're not doing. And I'm sure
you have one as well. I do. The first is something that was
interesting. I did not know this was taking place. I knew some of
it by here is that tariffs that the US is levying on the
European Union.
President Trump's administration has announced it will raise the
import tariffs on EU aircraft from 10 to 15%. In March, it's
mainly targeted at giant European plane manufacturer
Airbus the 10% Tariff was introduced back in October,
after the World Trade Organization ruled that the US
could legally impose tariffs worth $7.5 billion or 6.9
billion euros. That was because the EU had been caught illegally
subsidizing Airbus. But the WTO has also ruled that the US were
guilty of subsidizing its own giant aircraft manufacturer
Boeing in the coming months it will rule on what level of
tariffs the EU can impose since the October ruling, the US has
also slapped a 25% tariff on other EU products, including
wine, cheese, coffee, and olives. Airbus has said that
tariffs will only increase trade tensions between the EU and the
US.
Well, that's the point the is to increase tensions to whip you
people in shape over there. To the Airbus Boeing, that's a
fight that's been ongoing and quite honestly, is protection
airy at this point, too, you know, because Boeing is in
trouble with the 737 Max, Southwest Airlines as 85 of them
just sitting in the in the desert waiting until the glitch
can be fixed. But it's the wine. I've noticed this and I wanted
to ask you, I like a 2016 Pinot Noir. And that's the year at but
you can't get in front of 20 bucks now. Have you noticed the
prices have gone up? Because since these tariffs came in? No.
I wasn't thinking about it. I just said to Tina, the other day
said wine is expensive. It's like you should be able to get a
good bottle for under $20 is crazy. That's what I learned.
That's what I learned from you. Well, not in 2016, not 2016.
You have to go with your phone and a camera and go to the store
and then go to the drive and then call me and then we'll put
it on the screen. I can see what you're doing and I can tell you
what to get.
Right. So you haven't noticed the 25% Tariff on French wine?
No, I have not. Oh, that's odd. Most of the French wine is done
on long term contracts. And I don't know how they deal with
the tariffs.
And then thank you. I have a clip from the European Union
from the Starfleet Command the European Parliament. Just a
short one, but I thought a fine. Fine little piece of politicking
in the EU. The Irish Member of Parliament Mick Wallace is
reprimanded for something you said about Venezuela's guaido
and in particular to the Europeans that you do not agree
that the recognition of guaido is an absolute embarrassment to
anyone that has occupied this chamber. And it's a disgrace on
on the part of the member states of Europe that so many of them
have recognized later. gobshite
Mr. Wallace, Mr. Wallace now you did use the word gobshite sir
And I would like to reprimand you over them.
Called guaido gobshite which is a gobshite up shite. They would
guess, but gobshite you got
garnish British ism for a head. Yeah, and Shai is German for,
for shit. It's a shithead to make use of the word gobshite,
set
the gobshite while Shadid the Brits they shaped
instead of Gob Chicago, British, British,
I'd like gobshite I think that's a great term. I'm going to use
it myself. Thank you for introducing me. I'd like
gobshite
now I have with a clip I have is this is the story that they're
not going to play here because the French you know, we don't
talk a lot about talking about NHS and some of these different
health systems that Canada and England but the French really
have a great socialized medicine system and a lot of Brits moved
to France in their older years, so they have to hit French
doctors, for sure, very common, but apparently it's falling
apart two
walls around Paris's Pitocin louia tests are rising anger
among doctors. Medics save a lack funds and manpower. They're
short on Karen admin assistants and over 70 nurses posts remain
unfilled.
lepel confirms our appeal to the public hospitals save you so
let's save them. So they don't
this hematologist says low salaries and rising workloads
are driving stuff away. Dividends are
being lost because we lack staff and don't click that. So
sometimes you see patients waiting on stretchers in the
emergency ward, excuse me and now people are suffering and
it's not acceptable to leave them on stretchers like that. So
I'm on disposal. cut backs are not just theoretical, they have
practical consequences. But they should still weaken and we see
them on the ground every day no monthly was
French public hospitals have been hit by walkouts for 10
months. Wow medic, same budget cuts and market based policies
by successive governments have left patients suffering. Yeah,
seeing is one of hundreds of doctors to have given up their
administrative functions in protest. ality. And that's what
we need to find another way of sounding the alarm bells to the
public and to governments over to problems and our hospitals.
These days, it's the politics of accountancy that's running the
hospitals, whereas it should be the politics of the public
health. Gee,
did you hear that the politics of accountancy
yes
the bean counters Yeah, this is what always happens. Yep. And it
even happens in the best public health system in the world
France will give them that us the
same UK the NHS and I'll same problem same problem bean
counters
come in and they say in our we can cut why don't they bean
counters for example, go after the Pentagon in the United
States? They don't do that. Oh, wait,
don't we can't do we have an audit? Too much work.
Go audit somebody else. Okay. We'll go on to somebody else.
Yeah. Well, they do
that as they come out and audit me. Yeah, bastards. The mayor,
the mayor of Amsterdam, the femme Kahal some up she's a
greeny you've been around for a long time. I don't like her
particularly. She is although I think this is a good idea. Or
it's it has to be done is considering banning tourists
from buying weed when they visit Amsterdam. Because out of out of
control. It's out of control. People come to Amsterdam get
high get drunk puke everywhere. Patient mailboxes, harass the
horse. Hey, this is all
these guys what what to say how tall are these guys? They can
piss in a mailbox
in the Netherlands they have mailboxes in every different
door has a mailbox a mail slot those little Yes exactly.
Hey dear What's that sticking in that flap there the door in the
front
and then they go to the Red Light District in harass our
horse Hey, it's got to be done over and over and out. I agree
with the mayor on this fuck off sorry I didn't mean to use that
but I do mean it it's it's it ruining the city.
Ruin Was it any different than it used to be?
Cheap air flights have made it just so enticing for all of
Europe to Friday, leave go to answer.
Well blame the airlines then. Okay. I mean, they make the
place enticing like you just said, and they everyone plows
flies there because it's cheap and it's not that expensive to
stay there that compare it to other places.
Airbnb is another point that these it really isn't Silicon
Valley. To some degree. It's Airbnb. It's easy jet. And
there's a couple others. I think EasyJet really, really started
the trend. And there's no respect. Let's put it that way.
We're not Vegas.
We're about policing a little better. You got to get drunk in
public. Oh, well, good. Over the years in jail, you're
mistaking the Netherlands for some place that actually has
police that can do anything. Oh, no. They are afraid the police
are afraid they walk away from trouble. They don't get involved
in fights anymore. There's no policing, of course, and that is
also part of the mayor's policy. Oh, she's
going to increase the police.
No, no, it's going to take away weed.
That's not going to solve the problem. No,
but it's news from your locals can
still buy weed but yes, yes, you've got a car. So now there
were so you're gonna go to a weed place.
It's the economy.
And you're gonna sit there and you're gonna say well, I can't
buy weed is anybody want to buy some weed for me?
Or you just say I got you just say I got some weed man. Wanna
buy some weed for me?
Yeah, there's that make it a create a lot of middlemen?
Yeah, it's going back to the legality. It's never been legal.
Anyway, that's just that's what's going on with Europe. We
are so much better when it comes to weed in America and and LGBT
open sexuality. You can't do that in the in Europe anymore.
She get beaten up by people who disagree with it.
Well, what was the overseas us take a look at the get an update
on the Afghan deal.
Oh, yes.
I'm curious if that Secretary Mark Esper told the panel at the
Munich Security Conference today that he believes a peace
agreement with the Taliban looks, quote very promising. A
seven day reduction in violence is expected to be formally
announced tomorrow and if successful, it will be followed
by a US Taliban peace deal. But Esper did acknowledge today that
there are risks, we have to give peace a chance that the best if
not only way forward in Afghanistan is through a
political agreement. And that means taking some risks. Asper
and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met with Afghan President
Ashraf Ghani yesterday to discuss the details of the plan
which includes the gradual withdrawal of US forces
so I don't really understand if there's any change to sounds
like the same old same old to me.
Sounds like it to me to you. Let's do a another overseas
story of course is Coronavirus. That's I got a couple of
different stories. One, the longer one is the CBS overview.
You want to play that?
Yeah, let's see.
Wait CB Coronavirus vaccine plus CBS overview.
Got it. Tonight the CDC is intensifying the battle against
the deadly Corona virus that has infected more than 50,000 people
worldwide. More than 1500 people have died nearly all of them in
China, Carter Evans now on China's drastic measures to stop
the outbreak. This is
what can happen to people who don't wear masks in the
epicenter of the outbreak. Security forces patrol the
streets of Wuhan during a total lockdown for medical personnel
protective gear like suits and masks are in short supply, as is
adequate care, hospitals and clinics are overflowing with
this sick and dying. In the US the CDC is ramping up its own
response to the epidemic by setting up five laboratories
around the country where people with flu like symptoms can now
go and be tested for the virus if their flu results are
negative. This has scientists around the world race to develop
a vaccine. So you're using DNA and genetics to teach the body
how to attack the virus exactly
and to recognize the virus and then attack it immediately.
Inovio Pharmaceuticals in San Diego has already successfully
developed vaccines for Ebola and Zika Dr. K Broderick says the
Coronavirus vaccine they're working on now is showing
promise.
It's currently being tested in the lab literally as we speak.
And we're manufacturing large scale quantities of it to get
into human testing by the early summer.
Noticeable the following and you should probably do this check.
Christina in Rotterdam and Alan now in in Chicago. Both of them
have expressed just in casual conversation. They're extremely
they're not worried about much extremely worried about Corona
they've it's something something about how it was presented or
how it's still being presented has really scared millennials.
And I'm not sure if this is consistent but I thought that
was interesting that those two both kind of said Hey, I don't
care about much. I really don't want this Coronavirus. That
sounds a little afraid of it.
Well, there's 1500 deaths. So let's play the flu update and
listen to the deaths of the flute from the flu. And listen
to the final conclusion i By the way, this one is from PBS,
because the CBS story left out an important fact at the end.
It's reported here by PBS in the flu.
The US government is preparing to evacuate about 400 Americans
tomorrow night from the Diamond Princess cruise ship quarantined
at a Japanese port.
That's Corona update Saturday.
Well then tell me what yeah, when I'm supposed to report PBS.
Okay, you totally said something different. That's okay. Back in
this country. A second wave of the flu is hitting children,
especially hard. US health officials said today that 92
children have died so far this season. That is the most in 10
years. Overall, some 26 million Americans have caught the flu,
and about 14,000 have died. Those numbers are not especially
high compared with other years.
I have a complimentary clip for that. From the Dr. Drew
the press is creates hysteria and headlines that are now
divorced from the facts. I will not know when we actually have a
pandemic coming. I will not be able from reading.
I'll put them on hold. Reading the
press, I will not be able to know what we've got on our
hands. And this is a perfect example of that. So here are the
headlines now 10s of 1000s of more cases that we had realized
300 Dead in China, when the headline should read, in spite
of that being milder and infecting many more 10s of 1000s
people that we knew the death rate still remains just 300
people. The numerator versus denominator is point o 3%.
Right. I don't know what that says. In other words, you put
300 over 40,000 That's the death rate for them from Coronavirus,
right because they're realizing that was much more widespread,
much milder, much less likely to kill anybody except people that
are immunocompromised and are old or at risk for complications
of our illnesses. You are much more likely to die of the flu
right now than the Coronavirus right now, why isn't that the
headline? Why did that? Why did they say get your flu shots
reminder? Don't worry about this one. The CDC has got it.
That's a very good point.
It's a good point except for the fact that they do tell you to
get the flu shot.
I honestly I haven't seen a commercial for the flu shot or
promo for it in a while.
Now. We had a couple of
no just I haven't seen it.
But the point is the clip that I had here, which is 14,000 dad
compared to the 100. Right, but technically the way they see in
China if it's killing Chinese, it's times 10 smashing a lot,
much more important killing. I have an update from our
professor in Shanghai, Professor JJ and acjc D things are much
worse. There's no problem with infections and illness. Rather
the crackdown on travel and commerce has dropped off to a
trickle in certain places. This is in Shanghai. However, in
Wenzhou, I said, I'm pronouncing what when Joe I've been taught
how to pronounce it. And when Joe a metro area of 10 point 6
million people people are locked inside their apartment complexes
when I asked a friend if she could escape. By saying that she
wanted to go to a hospital she said that she would be arrested
if she did so. The high speed train no longer stops at when
Joe hence, unless people have a car they cannot leave the city
and I trust that highways are blocked off anyway. The stores
and markets are not getting new supplies my friend Hefei, the
NFA, about 230 miles East North East North. East North East of
Wuhan is also on lockdown. He works at an international school
they locked him in the school. They do let him leave the
compound once a week to buy food. Relatively I'm living in
paradise in Shanghai, all the markets are open and well
stocked. One more major issue was school closings technically,
kids are still in school online, they have assignments or video
lectures. But the British exams the AI GCSE and A levels are
coming the spring and many students will not be prepared
that means a huge number of Chinese kids who would otherwise
attend university in the UK, Europe can Canada and the US and
Australia will not be eligible. Just another effect of the just
in time modern model of modern assembly line society. So there
you go. They're still keeping them locked in though that's
very interesting
whole thing is just to put the squeeze on us
well, I don't see How it puts the squeeze on us. I think it's
puts the squeezers
a lot it was our suppliers are all in China.
Well, no, not all I mean we have we have some people have gone to
alternatives. There's India does Vietnam and apparently some
American fact this actually brings me to a point that I was
going to bring up later but I want to do it now. I watched the
documentary American factory. You familiar with this
documentary?
Yes. And it was like the who was the people behind it? It was it
was the Obamas
Yes. Well, actually, it's Participant Media. And that's
Jeff skull. That's the you know, the Pay Pal, guys that's with
all their money came from semi Elon Musk type crowd. But Jeff's
goal is a very elite. And then if you if you watch the
documentary starts off partially Participant Media, then much
later on, you get a little higher ground productions, you
know, not really a big deal. So it was more to me like a stamp
of approval. In fact, it took a little bit of the trade and the
Oscar goes to I'm sorry, that's not the trailer. They won the
Oscar for Best Documentary. I guess I will play this now. And
the Oscar goes to American factory.
This is the first Oscar and second nomination for Steven
Bognar, the first Oscar nomination for Julia Reichert
the first win and nomination for Jeff Riker.
Notice you don't hear any Obama name in here at all whatsoever
Our film is from Ohio, and China. Go Buckeyes. And sorry.
And but it really could be from anywhere that people put on a
uniform punch clock, trying to make their families have a
better life. Working people have it harder and harder these days.
And we believe that things will get better when workers of the
world unite.
Thank you Academy trusted us to tell your story che che chowder
Wang thank you to our unstoppable
notice, by the way, this is this is really why I want you to hear
this part. The award was you know they they have trophy babes
on award shows. This was clearly a Chinese a young Chinese man
who handed them the awards and we do need to remember that
China owns a large portion of Hollywood so keep that in mind.
Thank you Academy. Thank you to everyone who trusted us to tell
your story che che chowder Wang thank you to our unstoppable
crew, our beloved friends and family. Each and John deja Lee
are unstoppable editor Lindsey Utes, under those big hearted
people at Netflix, Participant Media, higher ground productions
and the tough, inventive great people of Dayton Ohio. Chica
ching ching.
Okay, quick little I'm gonna get into my review quick little is
everybody so unstoppable. What is what was the reference to
unstoppable? What does that mean?
Oh, I'll get to that. I think it's a part of my review. Here's
a quick little 52nd piece of an interview with the director and
Julia Reichert. I guess in
our hometown, Dayton, Ohio, there was a big General Motors
plant that actually like built the middle class of Dayton, as
factories often do, you know, the blue collar middle class,
but you know, people could send their kids to college, that was
security, they could own a home. It built that kind of middle
class of our town. So that plant closed and Oh, eight as the
economy was collapsing around us, we didn't know that was
going to happen. We made a film about that. Called the last
truck. So fast forward about eight years. And that plant
stood empty, you know, raccoons living in it rusting, very sad
blight on our community and a Chinese billionaire
entrepreneur, bought the plant and brought over 300 or more
Chinese supervisors, workers and hired 2000 American blue collar
workers. And all I will say is complications ensue.
Okay, so you understand, you get the premise of the movie of the
documentary. So I decided to watch this because, you know,
the won the award it popped up on on Netflix, I knew that the
Obamas had put their stamp of approval on it, but really
nowhere as Obama, Michelle or Brock mentioned, it's very minor
titling. I was surprised by that. But it has their seal of
approval. volt. And the minute I turned this documentary on the
first thing I thought is, oh, it's dramatized I thought they
had reenacted something. Because you're literally inside the
Chinese billionaire entrepreneur, I'm doing big air
quotes could like that exists in China. You're in his jet, you're
flying around. You're very intimate. Very, very, you know,
it's a lot of subtitles, because he doesn't speak any English.
And very candid conversation. So when you
say that Chinese entrepreneurial billionaire like that exists in
China, what do you mean? They are billionaires in China? You
can't use it. There are here, yes, but
you don't exist outside of the party. I think that's what I
mean, you are a part of the Chinese part of the system,
you're part of the system. So yes, you're an entrepreneur,
been an entrepreneur, for us means I'm bucking the system,
you go against something, you create something new, this guy
basically took a factory that built trucks, and moved his
glass, a car glass company into it. And the whole documentary is
consistently now they picked six Americans to follow. So they
brought in 300 Chinese workers, and they of course, live, you
know, five to an apartment. They work 14 hour shifts. They work
six days a week, the Americans. The ones they chose, I felt were
kind of schlubby. I mean, there was 1000 American workers, the
ones they chose, the each of them had an issue. And so the
contrast was continuously look at these workers, and then look
at the Americans. And then, you know, the Chinese are pushing
the Americans, you know, it's like the shadow system where
they, they have people supervising you in Japan, the
Japanese were very good at that. Now the Chinese are doing that.
And they keep showing this dichotomy between the American
workers who were like, Hey, man, that's dangerous. We want a
union. And then the Chinese billionaire entrepreneur is
literally in this documentary saying, Wow, they're just no
good. They're overconfident. They the American workers have
received too much encouragement as children. They have no,
they're lazy, they're out of shape. They're not healthy. They
don't want to work hard. They have very, very odd cultural
ideas. And then the, the other Chinese executives are saying,
We can't even teach them their fingers are too fat. So it
continues on like this. And then some of the executive management
the US management is invited over to China, and they
witnessed, you know, company songs, do the whole
indoctrination, but continuously for an hour and a half. It's
Chinese workers, great high output, discipline, American
workers shit. And this goes on and like what what is the
message? Why is Obama involved? What is going on? And as you
know, Obama was very friendly to China. He went over there right
his first term bowed himself down there was his toes. Oh,
yes. And all this Chai calm money came in, everything was
allowed. Just lots of stuff happened before Obama as well.
But Obama definitely the promoter. And then in the last
five minutes, it all came together. So this crescendo of
American workers suck. They're no good. You shouldn't you heard
the director say we should unite working together. No. They go
through this whole thing of how bad they are. And that you see
them shattering glass and making mistakes all expertly edited and
produced I'm sure that that's not like that throughout the
whole factory. And then at the last four minutes, it's like,
well, these these American workers are really no good. And
then they unveil take off showing the billionaire who's
once again, come to Ohio to visit for this problematic plant
even says, You think I like coming here? It's a pain in the
ass to come here. Every month. I hate it here. You get get your
get your people in order to get these stupid Americans to work
right? It says no worries, and he uncovers two robotic arms.
And then the movie starts to end they throw up a title. By
2035 283 million Americans will no longer have work because of
automation. And I'm like, oh my god, this is Obama's fuck you to
Trump. This is the you can't stop it. You can't. You can't
make Americans competitive. You can't have fat. Where's your
magic wand? You can't have factories do well in America.
It's all going to be automated and the Chinese are going to
win. That was the message and it was incredibly disturbing.
unAmerican and just the Ah, and of course, they won the award.
China owns Hollywood is handed out by an Asian guy. I think he
was Chinese. Come on, he was really really, really disturbing
to see how we just were made to look like shit. And that China
is the answer to everything, and that they're going to overpower
us with their automation anyway. That's my review. Wow.
As the best review I've ever done. Seriously. Yeah, I was
dynamite.
Thank you. Well,
I wish I had seen the movie. So I could, he's thrown in a
wrench, but it sounds like I don't need to do
it's worth watching. And again, it started off I thought it was
a reenactment. I'm like, I can't put this documentary you don't
typically get that kind of access for anything. And
literally, this Chinese guide the billionaires just anti
stupid Americans that can't do anything. They just no good huh?
Yeah. Huh.
So I've Alright, well, that's a good warning. Yeah,
I suggest everybody go take a look at that. And then while I'm
on the topic on Netflix, it is on Netflix. While by the way,
there goes our opportunity for Netflix. That guy that correct,
man, but it truly an Obama fu to Trump that that that that's
really what it was. At the Munich Security Summit is on now
in Munich. And Nancy Pelosi is there she speaking of course,
why wouldn't she be there?
Yeah, the congresswoman from San Francisco makes nothing but
sense.
It what she's doing though. She's doing her aunt she's away
from home. She's doing her anti China bid. This is regarding
Huawei and 5g and we'll just listen to her set up
here where I'm going to say something that may not be
agreeable to many of you here because we were invited Kendra,
no lecture but candor, and that is the subject of 5g and
cybersecurity. China is seeking to export its digital autocracy
to its telecommute telecommuting.
telecommunications infrastructure Nancy try one
more time
threatening economic retaliation against those who do not have a
gun, their technologies. The United States has recognized
Huawei as a national security threat by putting it on our
Entity List restricting engagement with US companies.
nations cannot cede our telecommunication infrastructure
to China for financial expediency.
So what's interesting about Nancy Pelosi doing this is she
doesn't do this at home, because that's Trump's message. So she's
over there and Munich saying well, and she can't even
pronounce telecommunications. As she's over there, laying down
the smack. Like all of a sudden, she invented this China thing. I
haven't heard her say anything about China ever since we
followed her until Trump came along. And then it got
interesting because some clearly high ranking Chinese official
stood up and woman. And she said this.
I'm from the National People's Congress of China. And I have a
very good memory of your successful visit the
construction dialog we had about the relationship a few years
ago. My question is about Huawei. We, I think my knowledge
of the how the world works is that technology is a tool. And
China thinks this reform started 40 years ago, have introduced
all kinds of Western technologies, Microsoft, IBM,
Amazon, they're all active in China, and things. Things we
started with one first, G, second, G, third G force G. All
the technologies came from Western countries from the
developed world. And China has maintained its political system.
The system led by the Congress Party has become successful.
It's not threatened by the technologies. How come if Huawei
technology with 5g is introduced into Western countries, then it
will threaten the political system? Do you really think the
democratic system is so fragile that it could be threatened by
this a single high tech company of Huawei?
I liked her question a lot because it really said, Hey,
what's wrong with your system? Your democracy is so fragile
that that you can handle our 5g While we took your one G 2g, 3g,
4g, and we didn't change now we know exactly why. So how would
you answer this if you were Nancy Pelosi?
I would say that to have a communications network that is
covered in the entire country, any country that has ultimate
backdoors and access by the Chinese government so they can
spy on every single thing we do and every little message we send
so they know more about us than we know about ourselves. That is
a threat to national security of any country, no matter how big
or how democratic or how anything
says right say yes. Sadly, you weren't there. Nancy Pelosi the
just bag old bag of bones at this. What are you doing there,
Nancy
said of you that are calling back there that Huawei was
created by reverse technology of America. And
what she's trying to say is Huawei was created by reverse
engineering, American technology, but no, our
representative from San Francisco. I don't know why
she's there. But that's how it comes out of her mouth.
He said of you that are calling back there that Huawei was
created by reverse technology of American initiatives. That was
one of the main ways that they got started. So yeah, we take we
know the capability that Huawei has, we have not want to emulate
the Chinese system. So it isn't a question of we have Huawei and
we are a model. So why are you afraid of Huawei? We understand
the power of technology. And I say on and I've been tracking
China for 30 years on trade and the rest of it in terms of
intellectual property and rest. And I tell you, unequivocally
without any hesitation, be very careful when we go down this
path.
This is the same Nancy Pelosi who spearheaded taking away the
capability from the President to stop ZTE from doing anything in
the United States. two fists two faced and shitty added as well.
Vote this woman out. I mean, if she doesn't die beforehand, I
don't want to speak ill of her but you can't be done. You can't
vote her out. Now. It's 40 I mean, that is it is it is a
canard she is she is a canard. She's just
she looks like a canard.
It's so bad that that's our representation during this. The
hell was she doing over there?
No, no, no. Good point. I have one I just showing get this out
of the way because we do have to do we'd need to take a break.
I've been going briefly about this. I want to get these two
clips done is the campaign rundown. Done by PBS on what's
going on so we know who's what and what's what. 2020 sorry. I'm
sorry. This is clip one.
The 2020 race and the leading Democrats are moving south. If
we
stand together as one people, we will not only defeat Trump, we
will transform this country.
In a sweep through the Super Tuesday state of North Carolina
today, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont aimed to springboard off
his win in New Hampshire.
This is a campaign which uniquely is prepared to take on
Wall Street, the insurance industry, the drug companies,
the fossil fuel industry, the military industrial complex, the
prison industrial complex, and the whole damn 1%
Shaking hands in neighboring South Carolina with Senator
Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, absentee voting
is already underway. They're more in lunched in Charleston
with hip hop artists Benny Starr. The map is quickly
expanding. Warren and Sanders started the day in the east and
Sanders plans to be in Texas, a big Super Tuesday state tonight,
but most hold 2020 hopefuls are farther west in Nevada, today
the next day to decide drew an all star lineup of former South
Bend Indiana Mayor Pete Buda judge, the Minnesota Senator Amy
Klobuchar, former Vice President Joe Biden and billionaire
activist Tom Steyer. Buddha judge is hoping to maintain the
momentum he got from the Iowa caucuses when he narrowly edged
out Sanders and a New Hampshire when He trailed just behind in
second. In Las Vegas, Klobuchar criticized ideas for government
run health care by Sanders and Warren as to far left
two thirds of the Democrats in the US Senate are not on that
bill, the Sanders Warren bill. And so that's another reason
it's not we're not going to pass it. And since we're in Vegas,
I'd say if your number is not on the wheel, maybe you don't want
to bet on that number.
Though that was the Bernie clip I was talking about earlier that
I couldn't find Yeah, he's coming to Texas. And he has the
goes on and on. And he and I that was actually Cut down
because between each one of his things, the insurance companies,
there was a big round of applause and the military
industrial company had a big round of applause. And behind it
were a wall of old farts, old smelly farts and they were
shaking their fists like you know, it's almost like a group
of people that were worked because they got none of it.
Except to the
calendar is driving the campaigns. The Nevada caucuses
are in just over one week on the 22nd. Then South Carolina's
primary is the Saturday after that, then comes a kind of big
bang for the Democratic map Super Tuesday, when Democrats
hold 16 contests and decide on a third of their convention
delegates. That is the central focus for former New York Mayor
Michael Bloomberg. Now third in some national polls, Bloomberg
is pointedly tussling with President Trump in back and
forth tweets. And at his campaign events like this one in
Houston last night. The President
attacked me this morning on Twitter. And he attacked me
again this afternoon in an interview. So let me say this,
Mr. President, you can't believe me and I won't let you bully the
American people.
President Trump also has his eye on a big map. Next week. He
begins a campaign swing through Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, and
California. For the PBS NewsHour. I'm Lisa Dejardin.
Lisa deja Do you know we've got to get that voice of bloopers
got this talk about it a feet elite. He's got it's just kind
of funny voice. He's
very you can't believe it. He sometimes goes little like can't
it's a little bit just like Connecticut. Yeah, Connecticut
thing, as you know, I don't think is very, you know, it's
kind of I don't like his voice. It's got a slight New York
quality to it. That kind of makes it better. But he's sounds
like a creep.
And he's a dog hater. Is he? Yeah, he's Yes. He hates dogs.
And there was an article I had in the show notes. I think two
shows ago. Whenever someone says, oh, you and your dogs
because they have two dogs. He says that it's my wife's dogs.
He's not I don't think he's married. This partners. He lives
with a woman Julie Julie. It's actually you're right. He says
Julie's dogs. I think Julie's her name.
I don't know her name, but she's taller than he is by a lot. And
they've been hanging out to hang out. He doesn't like gal pal. He
doesn't like all these terms. I was reading about this guy's got
all kinds of issues to get a yacht. He's got six houses and
he has no he has 15 houses. 15 houses. I have no that way. He's
got 50 but the yacht this is gonna get it. Oh, yeah, he's
gonna represent me. That guy's got it nice. Yeah, but it's a
pretty good it's not a prince of Dubai yacht. But it's pretty big
yacht.
Would you agree that the mainstream is in some kind of
irons right now they can't quite figure out who to root for. I
mean, they know that half it's the money is Bloomberg so they
have to continuously bring Bloomberg in because he's he's
doing gratuitous advertising. It's a
man paying their salaries.
Love it. It's a bonanza.
So the problem is why the new agenda shows better by the way.
We don't have Bloomberg money.
That's for sure.
I'm gonna show my mood by donating to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun
don't have Bloomberg money, but we do have some donors and
starting off with Josh Harbaugh in Middleton, Ohio. Kimsey with
$100 and he has a he needs some good karma give you that at the
end. I guess who's buying goat Karmis or herb Lamb The Earl of
Georgia 808 Brandon Foster $75 This list is short by the way.
Penny Moser in Australia cute you think you pronounce that?

He is a longtime listener on a donation program and has always
shared very funny jingles and stories from your show. I
thought I would try it late last year and now I listen regularly.
Ben is an OTG kind of guy too and has a flip phone, etc. Then
he updated my computer and put me on Linux Mint. Very happy
success. I'm very happy with it. When Ben was it's actually he's
named Ben dude named Ben Ben installing Linux. Meant for mom.
When Ben was younger, he was a great fan of the Goon Show. And
I think you're quite like them with your jingles and sound
effects and being so funny. At least I can understand you
better and appreciate your media deconstruction too. Well, thank
you so much, Penny, and thank you, Ben and the Goon Show. Are
you familiar with the Goon Show?
Yeah. It's an old British show that I guess was syndicated in
Australia. Copper famous comics have evolved from there into
into the single acts.

like proto Benny Hill. Gotcha. Gotcha with more comics.

like a potty.
Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and
days. You'd be triggered. You wouldn't be saying
like, soon so I was. So I was remiss in not reading this note
from Daniel Tomash. Oh, we just knighted? Yes, we shall read
now. Okay. I humbly ask for my night name to be certain dude
named Daniel Knight of the infinite forgotten wisdom. And
he'll take sushi and FIFA at the roundtable if the kitchen can
scrounge that up. And apparently they can't. Finally it would be
possible to get a little bit of moving karma goats style, that
would be amazing. My smokin hot wife and I are finally moving
out of our studio. Very good. So but you do that for him? And
then we'll be fifth? Yes.
In fact, I will. I'll give him a special little addition there.
That is on. You've got karma. Now before, before we get there.
I only I only have the one ISO possibility, which I played very
early on, which was this
one. All of my sexual fantasies involve handcuffs.
So do you have that's gonna be mine, which is not the ISO for
end of show, but it's an ISO based on this clip. Now I want
to play this clip. This is the President's ability to run the
DOJ. This is a big controversy on talk radio do left and right.
The president came out with a tweet saying you know I can do
whatever I want. I could tell the DOJ to go you know, hang
someone and they have to do it. I don't think he actually said
he didn't say that. But that's the way you think he said That's
you. That's what you think he said, if you listen to the left
wingers, but it's beside the point, he currently does have
the constitutional ability and nobody really exploits it.
Except apparently Roosevelt had four Germans literally hanged
during World War Two under these circumstances, really? That
yeah, but but that's beside the point. It's this clip where this
guy's trying to explain it. And this is Judy. And this is a guy,
and I listen to his voice. And I said, Oh, my God, this guy's
voice. And I have a little ISO of it. He literally has a voice
of somebody on helium.
Okay, clip first.
Yeah, play clip. And
we welcome both of you to the news hour. So many moving parts
here. I hardly know where to begin. But let me just start.
Thomas Dupree with what the president tweeted today, which
is essentially the he has the right to ask the Justice
Department to intervene in a criminal case. Is this something
that presidents have done before?
No, in a nutshell, no, I mean, you may be able to find One or
two instances in our history where presidents have directly
intervene. But it certainly is not something that is regularly
done. I'll say this. Look, the President as a constitutional
matter is right. He has the executive branch and he has the
power if he wants to exercise it to do it. However, there is a
very well established norm that governs the Justice Department
where I served, where presidents understand that they can't be
seen as politicizing the Justice Department and allowing
prosecutorial decisions be determined by partisan
considerations. That's why you have separation. That's why
presidents have respected the independence of the United
States Department of Justice.
Sounds a little like Ben Shapiro, has a little bit of
that
was a fast talker. I think that's what you're picking up
but but listen to the ISO of his voice of word. Jewry maxes out
the helium sound, but they can't be seen as Come on.
That's not from the clip. Yes. Really? That clip from the same
clip?
If you play that clip again and hear that part, which is right
in about the middle of it. Yes, that is from the clip. I did
not. I will Doctor stuff. And you can call me out now. I'll
admit to it. This is not doctored. That is his voice.
Well, listen, again, can't be seen as now back to the clip
didn't tweeted today, which is essentially the he has the right
to ask the Justice Department to intervene in a criminal case. Is
this something that presidents have done before?
No, in a nutshell? No. I mean, you may be able to find one or
two instances in our history where presidents have directly
intervene, but it certainly is not something that is regularly
done. I'll say this. Look, the President as a constitutional
matter is right. He has the executive branch and he has the
power if he wants to exercise it to do it. However, there is a
very well established norm that governs the Justice Department
where I served, where presidents understand that they can't be
seen as politicizing the Justice Department and allowing
prosecute can't be seen as
right. Oh, my God, well get him off the air. It's hard to get
him off the air. It's no good. horrible man.
So that I suppose no good for the show. It's not really I
think, well, it wasn't meant to be it was just, it was just a
voice this guy has I do
have just a crazy off the wall unhinged clip, if you're
interested. It's completely show business driven, but it does
involve Joe and Mika. So maybe you'd like that. Actually.
Christina sent it to me. Okay, so I know if you follow the the
controversy of Snoop Dogg calling out Gail, Oprah's
friend, they're talking Gayle King. Yes, I followed it. So you
follow that whole thing. But you might, you might like the most
recent mo facts, were it Moe actually dove into it. And the
real problem and what snoops issue was, is that both Gail and
Oprah have a history of going after Black men and letting
White men slide. That's really why Snoop was angry. Harvey
Weinstein, you know, a lot of people, they don't attack at
all. Les Moonves, Charlie Rose. All these people that work with
all well, you know, not, not bah, bah, bah. But when it came
to Kobe, you know, so you understand it's a, it's an issue
about these two black women going after Black men. And
that's what Snoop was so mad about. And that's, you know,
it's neither here nor there. But what happened on Morning, Joe,
with Joe and Mika. And I mean, just so they did not understand
the context. Nor did I honestly, the context of Snoop Dogg what
he was saying he wasn't saying go attack Gail. But you know,
Gail went into this hole. Oh, I'm getting death threats and I
can't sleep and then Oprah came out. It's so so so horrible, so
horrible. And Christina sent me this is a dead This is something
I think, probably fit in your show. There's corporate America
because there are
where his core America where his Viacom partnerships. Let me say
it again. A black female journalist fears for her life
this morning. Her children are facing abuse and threats. And
the New York Times The Washington Post for Wall Street
Journal, Viacom, no body is talking about this after
preaching on a mountain for years, about how dangerous it is
when Donald Trump threatens members of the press. Just why I
think it's dangerous when Donald Trump threatens the members of
the press. And I think it's dangerous when pop culture
figures threatened members of the press, especially a black
woman doing her job who was only doing her job, you know, what,
we can have a debate whether the question should have been asked
or not. So Beyond that right now. We are so beyond that right
now. What's the conspiracy of silence about New York Times?
Why aren't you writing about this? What about you? Washington
Post, Wall Street Journal? Where are you Viacom Where are you a
black woman has gone to bed a journalist in fear of her life
Wow, what's your amygdala

a Hillary run would be so delicious. Well, it has
it's almost too delicious to believe my friend. And Ron. I
think the key word here is not if she's four Iran when she
hasn't for close the possibility I get out she has feelings
speculation that she may actually run
again. Alright, I think Hillary Clinton or Bloomberg or some
centers comes in here cootie Hillary
Clinton and be running in 2020 I'm not running but I'm gonna
keep working and speaking and standing up for what I believe
Hillary Clinton says she will not be running for president
again in 2020
delay say the third time's the charm, right?
I as I say never, never never say never. And I will certainly
tell you I'm under enormous pressure from many, many, many
people to think about it. As you want to do AB maybe there
doesn't need to be a rematch. I mean, obviously I can beat him
