John C Dvorak: I like aggressive turning.
Adam Curry: Adam curry Jhansi Devora March 24 2024 In this
ward winning give nation media assassination episode 1645 This
Unknown: is no agenda, running
Adam Curry: down replacements and broadcasting live from the
heart of the Texas hill country here in FEMA Region number six
in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry from
John C Dvorak: Northern Silicon Valley where we're all
celebrating the first time in 110 years that a rookie won the
grand sumo tournament. I'm Jonathan.
Adam Curry: Raglan buzzkill to Carol 4g to get that right.
John C Dvorak: Kinda Yeah 98k eu Fuji Oh to calm hero Fuji he was
he was injured. He lost a match yesterday we got injured it was
a us up in the air whether you win today because he had to win
today when the whole thing Yeah. And then I noticed something.
That was I don't know why it takes me these
Adam Curry: years people understand that this is the this
is the big sumo championship that you follow and update us on
every six months. It's
John C Dvorak: yeah, people expect it. But I noticed I've
been following sumo for over 40 years easy. Yes
Adam Curry: and and 16 of those right here on this show.
John C Dvorak: Now the first time I've noticed this, the
winners and I think this may be endemic to jet to Japan. The
winner comes out and they ask him a lot of questions. He never
thinks anybody.
Adam Curry: Really what a douche? No,
John C Dvorak: I've never seen any Japanese wrestler, thank
anybody over the years, not even an 80s because we have in this
country, we have a thing called obligatory gratitude. So if you
watch as you watch the Academy Awards, they my mom, my dad and
your director, my producer, my fellow actor, they go on and on
and on. In fact, there was some actress that forgot to thank her
husband and they got divorced, like within a month. You
remember that? Vaguely? Yeah. Well, that's the kind of and
then if you had like Obama says, you know, nobody's self made man
in the United States. You got to thank the government is because
we put roads on the streets. We paved the roads. If it wasn't
for paved roads, you wouldn't make any money. That's true.
It's true. It's true. Yeah. And I've tried to free I was
thinking why Why does there's no there's no tanks for the stable.
They're in there. No, thanks for their coaches. There's no thanks
to anybody. Oh, Phoebe. The dog doesn't even get any thanks. And
no, no, thanks. I'm guessing it's because the Japanese are
they have obligations thankless bunch? Oh, I think they have
obligations and duties and they don't expect to be thanked. I'm
just doing my job. Why are you thanking me? Well, that's true.
It may be an insult to be thanked tipping
Adam Curry: in Japan is in fact an insult. Yeah, if you tip they
will come running after you out of the restaurant, say Oh, no,
no, no, I'm just doing my job. You should not be tipping me.
That was the most amazing thing I've ever witnessed when that
happened.
John C Dvorak: This may be because duty is is accepted as a
thing and to be thanking somebody is insulting them. I'm
just doing I'm I'm supposed to be doing this. Why are you
thanking me? That's the only way I can figure it out. But thank
nobody.
Adam Curry: I think this is a good trend. I'm not going to
thank you for any
John C Dvorak: we have an we have obligatory gratitude in
this. You have to thank people or else you're a douche. In
fact, you started off by saying he's a douche. You yourself
reacted immediately. No, I come in
Adam Curry: to do I feel bad now? I feel bad. I think he's
right. The only person you should be thanking is God.
That's all Yeah, that covers it all. That's what I'm gonna do
from now on. I'm not thanking you for anything.
John C Dvorak: But then you're a douche. Yeah, well,
Adam Curry: there you go. Oh, by the way, so
John C Dvorak: I was so after this show. There is a thing. I
have to say this and I'm just gonna been putting it off now.
But you have a doppelganger on NHK
Adam Curry: right on NHK on the Japanese television station.
Yeah,
John C Dvorak: he's a guy named Josh Danielson. If your life had
gone differently, this should be you. Is Jesus super square.
Where's the bow tie? He's got and he's a presenter, but he's
terrible. He's an eye every time I look at it.
Adam Curry: I don't like any of these things. You're saying
here.
John C Dvorak: I'm always look askance at it as is this atom
doing this bit.
Adam Curry: I'm looking for him now.
John C Dvorak: I know you're gonna have trouble finding him
but you if you find him you'll see me be worrying about tiny
looks like you And he's a psych I, everyone's who I think is
this is a second job that you do as a joke.
Adam Curry: Most people confuse me with, with the drummer from
the police. Stewart Copeland, that a lot of people confuse me
with him. He's like, hey, that's your that's your brother. Yeah,
it's your brother. Well,
John C Dvorak: this guy's a kind of a doppelganger with a bow
tie. So
Adam Curry: thanks, John. Thanks.
John C Dvorak: So, so on this show. Again, I'm noticing now
that I got this thing about the lack of gratitude. They're
playing a bogus story about how the t 100. T 1100. Toshiba
laptop was the first in the world when it wasn't by a
Adam Curry: long shot. Wow, there's a twist and turn on did
not expect. And
John C Dvorak: they go on and on about it. And I noticed that
throughout the thing, they kept mentioning other companies but
never mentioned their names. He said add another company. Again,
showing no gratitude this
Adam Curry: who was not thanking you miss me. How do we
transition from the sumo guy to the Toshiba laptop?
John C Dvorak: They weren't thanking anybody either.
Adam Curry: Okay. Wow. All right, a little bit of tech
history for you everybody. Remember those Toshiba laptops?
Whoo. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: Well, I always thought they made some of the
best laptops, but they did not make the first by any means.
That would go to grid.
Adam Curry: Now before we get into the news du jour and and
talk about what the algo told us to be worried about today. Not
not even four days between our last show even the show preps
are three days between the last show. And today. It's already
happening. I'm going to play a one minute Redux clip of Dr. Jen
America's favorite doctor. Remember, the reason you need to
take ozempic or any other GLP one drug is because the risks, I
mean, you've got to think for yourself is the risk of taking
it less or more than the risk of not taking it
Unknown: people often don't realize that these were first
FDA approved in the United States for help in managing type
two diabetes almost 20 years ago. So we have extensive safety
and efficacy data, they have a good track record. However, when
you talk about risks, I think you need to ask four questions.
What are the risks of taking these drugs? Versus what are the
risks of not taking these drugs? What are the benefits of taking
these drugs? And what are the benefits of not taking these
drugs, we know conclusively that if you do not treat or manage
the conditions of overweight or obesity, the risks are
significant increased risks of heart attack, stroke, various
types of cancer, that has to be part of this decision making
analysis. So take a very rare potential risk or side effect of
this class of medication that if a risk is noted to occur one out
of every 100,000 times that's rare, that's one case. But if
all of a sudden a million people are on that drug, you're going
to see that rare risk or side effect 10 times and to
Adam Curry: quote my favorite comedian George Carlin to fixes
in the game is rigged, folks, because here we go. Millions
Unknown: of Americans may soon have more access to a popular
and expensive drug for weight loss. Medicare says it plans its
plans can cover would go V but only for certain patients and BC
senior business correspondent is Christine Romans, of course,
notice the business correspondent, not a doctor, he
is here. With more. Christine, good to see you. Morning
Americans could this morning effect in
the future, it's fair to say millions, this could be millions
of Americans, you have 65 million Americans who are on
Medicare. And for people who have heart disease risk of
stroke, their doctors can now prescribe this, this important
drug to help them reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke or
other serious cardiovascular disease. So this is really a
game changer for public health. Medicare is not allowed by law
to cover weight loss because of the fence and scandal 20 years
ago, but it can now cover it for heart disease, which of course
goes along with obesity. 70% of Americans suffer from being
overweight or obesity. So this is a big, big population of
people.
So what if you do want to get it covered for weight loss? Is that
just out of the question is out on the table? People are
thinking about the question,
you have to talk to your doctor about whether you are at higher
risk for heart disease because of because you're always to the
right, right. So that's very important. But there's also the
problem with how much it costs if you don't have this
prescription, least $1,300 For one package, which is less than
one to $16,000 for a year supply. But these insurers now,
mostly they mimic what Medicare does, so other insurers may
start covering this as well. But here's the thing we know that
Being overweight is very expensive in terms of your
lifetime of medical risks. So insurers now have to start
weighing whether it's really important to get more people
these drugs, who can tolerate it so that they can prevent other
kinds of health problems down the road and potentially bring
down costs
Absolutely. Huge for a lot of Americans.
Adam Curry: We bring down costs, yes. Bring down stops. Yes. It's
already over. Yes.
John C Dvorak: So did you notice a little term in there? As
Adam Curry: I noticed several Which one did you want tolerate?
Oh, yeah. Because they you're puking when you take this stuff.
But here's here's let's do some you're bumping. Let's do the
back of the
John C Dvorak: night didn't actually explain what that was.
And
Adam Curry: let's agree on a code. I heard a bump something
when bump in the night, John. I don't know what it was. But it
came from your end of the of the connection.
John C Dvorak: And I wish it was trying to make it happen again,
I won't. It's weird.
Adam Curry: Let's do some back of the envelope stuff here. They
said 65 million Americans are on Medicare, let's just say the
average amount of people who are obese therefore, which can be
all of them. Well, now it's 60%. Is what they're saying. Okay, so
let's just take let's just do the math. Let's do 30 30 million
times 16,000. A year, a year? What is 35 times 16? To 35
million? While it's 35 million times? 18,000?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, it's in the billions. High billions,
hundreds
Adam Curry: of billions. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: It's ridiculous. Let's stop for a second. Who is
paying that money? You and
Adam Curry: me brother, the podcast world. So if and there's
no mention of? Well, if you go on, if you can tolerate the
drug, then you actually have to learn how to control your
intake. Ie What if I don't care if you have if you feel if your
your brain setpoint is you got to eat a lot don't eat processed
crap. This is going to bankrupt us. Good job Oprah. And I mean,
we only had one day we should have bought stocks right away.
We knew it was gonna happen. I had no idea what's gonna happen
two days after her special boom, there it is. Congratulate
Congratulations. We'll go that was the idea was it? You have a
two days I mean, no one had time to even consider the stock buy.
But it This is an outrage system. I could have sold calls.
I don't know some. You
John C Dvorak: can go you can buy still buy a call probably a
winner. Please don't shoot up like a rocket there is sometimes
they do.
Adam Curry: There is an upside. This is very interesting. Women
who are on birth control and then go on the ozone Olympics or
any other GLP one drug. Apparently they are getting
pregnant. Because this, this GLP one counteracts the effects of
John C Dvorak: Oh, I did not know this. Yeah, it's
Adam Curry: a big story, too. Big Story. Not so you might be
able to see this as an upside. Now, of course, the minute you
get pregnant, you should stop taking these drugs immediately.
For obvious, but
John C Dvorak: you're supposed to take it for life. But you
know, he's got a double edged sword to say the least as catch
22 as they like to say.
Adam Curry: So they had this regulation this law that said
you couldn't the government couldn't pay for weight loss
drugs because of Fen Phen, but I guess that doesn't matter.
John C Dvorak: I think that's been reversed engineered. Well,
it has been reverse engineered because there's no I mean, when
I said what I say is reverse engineers to Fen Phen blame it
on Fen Phen that was the reason they never liked the idea.
Adam Curry: Okay, well, that's a good point. I don't know exactly
what what the law was. But this is an outrage. This isn't
because they're they're not saying well, the way they get
around it, or whatever the law was, is not Oh, you know, you're
fat. No, no, it's because you're at risk of heart disease. You're
at risk of a stroke. Well, yeah. Ah, this is going to bankrupt us
even further than these nut jobs in Congress, who passed $1.2
trillion spending bill of which people are arguing over it. May
Marjorie Taylor Greene Oh, I'm so mad. Dude. Is $800 billion
for guns and stuff that blows up. No one's even talking about
that. Oh, it's 300 million for Ukraine. This is an outrage. Get
rid of Mike Janssen. Police this is this is we're out of control.
We're out of control. I tell you how to control
John C Dvorak: let me let me true. Let me play what else Oh
really. Gambling going to play a clip
Unknown: of this tonight with just hours to spare speaker Mike
Johnson resisting pressure from far right Republicans putting a
bill on the House floor to avert a government shutdown. The $1.2
trillion package passing the resolution is agreed to
Democrats carrying it across the finish line. The bill provides
more funding for Homeland Security, Health and Human
Services and labor. It also included money for 2000 new
border patrol agents and 8000 detention beds for migrants.
Some Republicans demanding more on immigration.
We got to regroup after this and get serious about some real cuts
and wasteful spending and in securing the border.
But House Republicans torpedoed a border Bill their own party
negotiated it could all now put speaker Johnson job in jeopardy.
Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene calling it a betrayal
that Johnson worked with Democrats taking the first step
to try to oust him. You're calling this a pink slip a
warning sign the bottom line you want speaker Johnson out?
I will I wouldn't have filed a motion to vacate if I didn't. We
need a new speaker. This is not personal against Mike Johnson.
He's a very good man and I have respect for him as a person. But
he is not doing the job. Mr. Speak
just months ago, Kevin McCarthy was removed as speaker after he
turned to Democrats and Republicans to reach a deal with
the funding the government. The house was paralyzed for 22 days.
I don't
see how she could possibly think this will benefit anyone were
the American people.
The Senate now preparing to work through the night to get that
bill passed and avert a government shutdown act for that
post to try to oust Mike Johnson yet another speaker it's unclear
how Republicans plan to move forward. The house is now out on
recess for two weeks.
Adam Curry: So everybody's doing their job. Marjorie Taylor
Greene doing her job. Let's argue about this. All the
speaker dB. Meanwhile, no one's read this thing. I of course
downloaded let me start reading. Oh, it's 1000 pages. Oh, it's
216,000 words. That breaks more math for you today, everybody.
That breaks down to five and a half million dollars per word.
This is these people are crazy. They're spending money we don't
have and what's in here what I've found so far. I mean, the
border exactly as we predicted. Ah, now we're just gonna get
more people to process people. There you got the bill that
there's money in here. I'm sure it's gonna go to the
international office of migrations. Oh, yeah. This
billions upon Oh 10 million for the task force dedicated to
countering the flow of fentanyl. Well, crap, man, we could get
that give that 10 million US. He's throwing it away. Just just
pissing money in the wind 3.4 billion for custody operations,
that's beds, that's beds. It's all going to go to these bogus
nongovernmental organizations. And it's going to change
nothing, actually. Um, so I'm gonna go into it now. And I'm
gonna let you do Moscow. But I go, I gotta go into this now. So
first, let's just do a little bit of replacement migration. I
said it because that's, that's what the the UN document says.
Not the great replacement theory, no replacement
migration. So United Nations document from 2000. It's
happening all over the western world. So this happened at the
border a couple days ago.
Unknown: Tonight alarming video from the US Mexico border, a
group of migrants pulling down razor wire breaking through this
fencing a handful of Texas guardsmen pushing them away as
they stormed toward the border wall. Sources tell ABC News a
group of migrants had been staging in this area in El Paso
waiting for Border Patrol agents to arrive. Within hours about
500 turning themselves in to Border Patrol agents for
processing. The real Rosler is the international boundary
divided
Adam Curry: we don't even need to listen to it. So we all heard
about it. Y'all saw the footage. So now let's go to what's the
now the messaging has to come in. And before I even start, I
want to reiterate the note that we got from our insider banking
professional advisor to the insiders. I'm just going to
reiterate this note. The goal is to get wage inflation in check.
I heard you connect bankers and mass emigration I think you're
onto something. The goal is to get wage inflation in check so
we can go back to irresponsible monetary policy policy. Central
banks do not control inflation because is bad for society. They
control inflation because it's terrible for banks. You can't
lend money at an interest rate that is lower than inflation or
you will go bankrupt. But interest rates also can't go up.
Everyone is so indebted from 20 years of near zero interest
rates, raising them will drive a wave of defaults and banking
collapses. What kind of inflation is bad for banks well,
as asset inflation is good for banks because it increases their
investments and also strengthens the value of the collateral held
against loans. wage inflation is what banks worry about. So mass
immigration, assets go up, wages go down. Bill Maher had two
people from Texas on his show. Beto, Beto, the globalist loser.
And this woman Sarah is gar a podcaster. Both Oh, no, I mean,
if all the podcast is in Texas, I pulled a couple clips because
I bet they both actually do a great job of explaining exactly
what's going to happen and why but first, let's gaslight
everybody, the Republicans are always saying well, the
Democrats just want open borders because they want more voters.
Is that completely wrong? It's completely
Unknown: wrong. I mean, people that they're talking about the
immigrants who are coming in, by law cannot vote. They're in
asylum application purgatory for six years there but their kids
can their kids can that's 18 years down the road. I mean, you
think the Democratic Party is able to plan 18 years down down
the road.
It really is. There's a real serious dynamic to this and
really dangerous one this this replacement theory, that is
traffic by those who are talking about Democrats bringing
immigrants in right to take the state or the country over
politically. Our governor traffics in that are Lieutenant
Governor and a guy in 2019, who came to El Paso when he posted
before he walked into a Walmart I've come to repel, the Hispanic
invasion of Texas, goes into that Walmart and slaughters 23
people because he believed what Donald Trump and Greg and all
these people were telling him he was afraid that he was going to
lose his power and that this invasion was really going to
take over the state. Now,
Adam Curry: Beto may be a douche. But he's not stupid.
He's using various very tricky words here. Our governor
traffics in this traffics in these theories. And let's all
think that those guys are talking about the voter base.
Yeah, it's all about the voter base. And, you know, let's,
let's remind everybody who we really are.
Unknown: So I would love to see my party standing up and
reminding this country who we are in the first place. We're a
country of immigrants, asylum seekers and refugees from seeing
that has made us the leading superpower in the world. And we
won't be able to maintain that status without welcoming
Adam Curry: more remember, Beddoes in law of family is
super rich, I'd say of the banker, click where people get
John C Dvorak: one quick question you by the way, are you
an immigrant? You know, am
Adam Curry: I an immigrant?
John C Dvorak: Yeah,
Adam Curry: no. Are you well,
John C Dvorak: no, I'm not. So is every anyone who do have an
appeal, you know, they were immigrants. It was a nation of
immigrants, makes the implication that every single
person's an immigrant if it's a nation of immigrants, and
Adam Curry: asylum seekers,
John C Dvorak: not just so that's just a blatant lie
Unknown: in the world. And we won't be able to maintain that
status without welcoming more people to this country. Now
we've got to do it the right way. It's got to be orderly just
got
going on now really, right and say this is the way an
immigration system should work. I don't think we need to work on
it at all that
no one has that opinion. We're basically
funding these cartels that used to run drugs. They don't need to
run drugs anymore. They run a human's $10,000 a pop and you
get three tries at the border. Excuse
Adam Curry: me, lady. If you think that running people is
more profitable than drugs, you're an idiot. Drugs is way
more profitable than then trafficking people. So she's now
and she's supposed to be the conservative here. She's now
gaslighting. Everybody all know the cartels. They've given up on
drugs pay no attention to the fentanyl addicts. No, no,
they've given up on drugs, people need to run
Unknown: drugs anymore. They run humans $10,000 a pop and you get
three tries at the border. They're running small children
and leaving them in the desert when they get inconvenient. And
then some of those children they're ending up in places for
sex trafficking in child labor and agriculture. We are funding
these cartels that are then corrupting the countries from
where these people are trying to flee from we worst system that
we could possibly have for immigration. It is a crisis to
not actually have a border.
Adam Curry: Okay, so what's happening here is they're both
on the same team. You'd expect Bob Bill Maher to have some
opposing opinions, but these two really they're just let me go
there. tag teaming. And now Beto is going to launch a couple of
memes. The one we already know, is the legal pathways. We don't
have a border problem. We have a legal pathway problem. So what's
Unknown: the fix? We need more legal pathways to come to this
country and Sarah's 100%. Correct. Only Congress can do
that. The President has done about almost everything that he
can. This DHS appropriations bill that passed the House
today. It now over the course of Biden's presidency has doubled
Border Patrol spending, which is five times greater than what it
was 20 years ago. He's added sections of wall he's deported
more people than President Trump ever did. That alone is not
going to get it done. You need ways for people to come here and
work the 9 million jobs unfilled, to join family to
increase persecution and to do it legally.
Democrats didn't say
Adam Curry: here's the here's the new mean, listen for this.
Now, there's 9 million jobs, we've got to fill 9 million
jobs, which is very close to the 10 million people, you bring a 9
million jobs we've got to fill. Well, what about those jobs Bell
Unknown: part of the problem here is the asylum system, we
have this giant magnet, you know, after World War Two, we
were very understandably and correctly embarrassed by what we
did about Jews seeking asylum from Germany. And this is
Adam Curry: interesting, bring in the Jews. This is how this is
how it's because of the Jews that we have this asylum system
now, because we're very embarrassed when we we didn't
let Anne Frank come in Europe.
Unknown: And so we have this asylum law where if you get to
the United States, we are going to hear your asylum claim. Well,
unfortunately, that means there's just a huge incentive
any way you can to get across that Rio Grande River, because
then we have to hear your asylum claim. That's the other thing
that only Congress can fix. The president cannot fix that. And
as long as that's the rule that get here and you can stay as
long as you say the magic words, I have a credible fear of
returning to my country, we're not going to fix the
border, because it's the only now
Adam Curry: here comes.
Unknown: I agree with you there. There are people applying for
asylum should not but it's because we've we've kept quotas
from countries, we don't really have a guest worker program to
speak of. There are people who want to come here to do jobs
that nobody born in this country is willing to do 9 million of
them unfilled. If we paid them more they'd be willing to. It's
possible. And we could try that. But I've talked to cotton gin
owners in Texas, and they say,
Adam Curry: Oh, hold on a second. She so he says no,
there's jobs, 9 million jobs in this country that people don't
want to do. They don't want to do these nasty jobs. She pipes
in and says, I bet if we paid them higher wages, oops, that's
the opposite of the idea is guard lady. And then he says,
oh, no, no, I've talked to the cotton. Literally, we weren't
slaves because we've
Unknown: we've kept quotas from countries. We don't really have
a guest worker program to speak of guest worker program. There
are people who want to come here to do jobs that nobody born in
this country is willing to do 9 million of them unfilled. If we
paid them more they'd be willing to. It's possible. And we could
try that. But I've talked to cotton gin owners in Texas, and
they say it doesn't matter what I pay someone, no one born in
ROSS cotton gin, is willing to do this. Yeah.
Your clothes are made of cotton.
We're still using cotton gin, we're still getting cotton. But
you've got two pathways. So
Adam Curry: Beto is saying we need slaves to run the cotton
gin, which, of course is exactly what he's Oh, raise wages. Well,
that might work. We could try it. But really, we need slave
for the cotton gin. And then here's the kicker, where this
guard just nails at home. I
Unknown: hate political antics. I really do. The busing was a
political answer. But boy sure makes a big difference when all
of a sudden Chicago and Boston and New York suddenly notice
that we have a migrant problem. No shit.
Adam Curry: That's right. And that's exactly what they did.
And the result is exactly what they wanted. Here are the union
activists in Chicago,
Unknown: over 100 people gathered at Chicago's Federal
Plaza, hoping their chance preached the White House. So
today, we are demanding work permits are all a mix of long
term undocumented workers, dreamers and allies of
immigrants hold a rally demanding President Joe Biden
use executive action to grant work permits not just to new
arrivals, but all undocumented people. The narrative is not to
take away, you know, resources for one another, you know,
putting against one another, but we just feel like it's time and
the President has the executive power. Organizers say
undocumented people in the country don't have a pathway to
obtain a work permit. So the individuals that are here have
been in many states for over 2030 years. Undocumented workers
share their stories of difficulties they face in the
workplace due to lack of having one supporters representing
hospitality workers say it's crucial the federal government
address this issue. The immigration
system is broken. There is no doubt and we need comprehensive
immigration reform to fix it.
Older men joining the rally, what are their country
do know where people have to beg you for the right to work every
single
Adam Curry: one say this is no longer an issue that can be
pushed aside.
Unknown: Don't go for votes if you don't deliver on their work
permits and dignity for our community. See
Associated Press reports. The President also faces pressure
from leaders in his own party over the issue of work permits.
We urge President Biden along with you to expand work permits
for long term undocumented immigrants proving
this will be an issue at the forefront of an election year.
Berliners
John C Dvorak: second work permits
Adam Curry: for your mate,
John C Dvorak: you're losing me because of the the logic here.
This is that last thing that was a union person who said that no,
that
Adam Curry: no that was all. That's happening. It's only a
part of all that was a person. I don't know what her name is. But
you Yes, but you heard work permits for all that just
saying, Oh, no, there's all these, but they're asking the
president for an executive order on work permits for all that's
what the union people want. And they're there when the union
John C Dvorak: is asking for work permits? Yes. Oh, yes. The
union is kind of a union. Is this
Adam Curry: good paying jobs? Good paying union jobs. This is
a scam. This is exactly what he was asking
John C Dvorak: what you would, is in this clip. If the union A
union is asking for that just to let every undocumented worker
get a work permit. This is not a union that anyone should belong
to. It's not a union of the
Adam Curry: workers union. What it was local one.
John C Dvorak: Local, that's what that's our union.
Adam Curry: I'm sorry. Yeah. This is the hospitality workers.
Of course. Not the cotton gin. No, they want him for
hospitality. They want Him for chicken plants. They want Him
for pork plants, though. Yeah, they definitely want them in the
meat packing in meat pack. Well, it's not even going to be beef
anymore. It's just going to be repackaged you'll just packing
more pork for me. It's an outrage, but they're doing it
it's gonna happen with and the way you do it is you send them
to Chicago and the Chicago gets all mad. Oh, yeah. Well, you can
fix this work permits for all it's gonna happen. It's it's a
foregone conclusion. Well,
John C Dvorak: if it's based on the fact that we need to lower
wages, yep. by screwing the union workers, by the way, we
have to lower wages to keep the inflation and everything in
check and keep the machine working correctly. Yeah,
obviously, it's going to happen because it's designed to happen.
And
Adam Curry: once you can work here, I'm pretty sure the next
step is you can vote here that that will happen. But podcasters
controlled opportunists stop for a second with the military age
men now they're coming here to take your jobs, you morons. your
jobs, your jobs, that's why they're here. And is it
happening here? So it's happening everywhere. This is
Matt Goodwin, who spoke at the big immigration debate in
Westminster in the United Kingdom.
Unknown: Most people out there who are not in this debate
tonight, the net migration levels are 70,000 a year, they
have no idea what's going on. net migration is 700,000 a year,
over the next 12 years, this country is going to change in
ways that we can scarcely imagine, between my daughter
being two and 14 years of age, we are going to see another 6.5
million people arrive in Britain 6.1 million of those because of
migration, immigration is going to represent 92% of all
population growth in this country. Over the next decade,
we're going to need about five cities the size of Birmingham to
accommodate that kind of growth. We're going to be 70% on the way
to another London, you are promised lower controlled, high
skill, high wage, highly selective migration. You've been
given the opposite of that. You've been given mass,
uncontrolled low skill, low wage, non selective immigration,
you were told that's going to strengthen our economy. Every
single study that's been done on the kind of migration, we now
have low skilled migration from outside of Europe shows the same
thing. It takes more out of the economy than it puts in so
Adam Curry: this is the same that's happening in the
Netherlands, in Belgium, in Scandinavia, in Germany, in
France, it's all the same, and it would be I mean, I'd be the
last guy to say I don't want a Haitian cooking for me and a guy
for garden for cheap. That'd be great. Unfortunately, Do you
know this lowers all wages? And you can't? Yeah, if you're
living with 10 people in one apartment, which is what these
people are forced to do, yeah, that works. But if you're living
by the standards that we hope our kids will live at, it's not
going to work. Because of the money printing see previous
topic of money, we don't have $1.2 trillion. So there you go.
That's what it is. And we just passed a huge package to process
them to get more more people at the border to process them more
beds. But oh, no. Near 300 million for Ukraine, and in May,
Johnson's got a girl. Let's have that be the topic of discussion
for the next two months there. On a lighter note, Kara Swisher
was also on the show. Your protege?
John C Dvorak: She's not my protege. And she says so
herself.
Adam Curry: Kara Swisher was on the show promoting her book,
which is a book about how much how people hate her. I think
John C Dvorak: it's called. That's called. Will you do for
sure.
Adam Curry: I don't know. I love her. I love all people.
John C Dvorak: But you love her because she provides material
which is money in the bank.
Adam Curry: I have respect for her, too. But what's cool about
this clip is she does the thing that I do not like about her
where she says she will interrupt you and say but go
ahead. You know the thing that I had to untrain you from
John C Dvorak: Will you accuse me of developing it in her?
Adam Curry: Well, it she still has it and what's interesting
what's fun about this clip is she's a little too slow for Bill
Maher because he turns around and whips her it was good. Who's
John C Dvorak: gonna not like this, all of them
Unknown: but they like you know, they respect you know,
some of them some of them I think they're scared a little
bit I guess sometimes good. That's what they did that
irritated for the job. And you know, in the back of the book
instead of you do blurbs on the back of the book, I put all the
insults they had like Elon, you're an asshole. My my, my
voice is so shrill. Only dogs can hear me and that my heart is
seething with hate. So that's what Elon thinks of me. Which
I'm like, look in the mirror, sir. But
he's a complicated guy. Oh,
okay. Sure. Why not? Well, I mean, he's just not a
complicated guy. He's just a jerk. But go ahead. Okay. Well,
it's complicated.
So were my Okay, well, now you just debated with yourself.
Adam Curry: Yes, but go ahead. What an annoying habit. That is.
Because
John C Dvorak: he gets okay, but go ahead.
Adam Curry: Exactly. You bump your mic when you do it. Just
that's okay. But go ahead and bump your mic. Go ahead. You're
not even doing it right now. I don't really know how you do it.
John C Dvorak: I know what it is not the mic at all. It's just
but it does the mic.
Adam Curry: Anyway. So that that is in a nutshell, what people
shouldn't be worried about is that we just agreed to print up
a whole bunch of money. We don't have four things that will make
our lives worse. And all these dildos are in on it. Right?
Yeah. This is great. That's good. We'll get all of our all
of our donors. We'll get them all cheap labor, and I can get a
slave out of it myself for my cotton gin. Cotton Gin thing.
He's literally literally brings in slavery. It's crazy. I mean,
the messaging is all over that guy. He's not as dumb as I
thought he was. He knows what he's doing. Yo, yeah, he's, uh,
John C Dvorak: looks dumb to prom with Bayto his previous and
present well, he looks like an
Adam Curry: idiot. He's He's Satan's advocate is what he is.
John C Dvorak: And he was I guess he was a when he was
young. He was a juvenile delinquent. Well,
Adam Curry: we all have checkered past. I'm gonna hold
my
John C Dvorak: neck your doppelganger
Adam Curry: who Daryl Hall of hollow notes. Josh Daniels.
Okay. All right. So let's, now that we have that out of the
way, let's spin the cycle down and let's talk about the Moscow
attacks. I believe you have a package.
John C Dvorak: I do. I have four clips for the Moscow attacks and
it's just, they're just kind of interesting. You know, this is
still up in the Er was going on because the latest is they
caught the guys that they caught trying to escape to Ukraine. One
of them is a Ukrainian soldier and you know, so Putin says this
Ukrainians they are CIA says is not a but RCA also noticed that
it was going to happen. They predicted it and they didn't
know where. So this whole thing is messed up. But let's start
with clip one.
Unknown: Russia is stepping up security after at least 133
people were killed nearly 200 Injured in an attack on a
concert hall in Moscow on Friday. The attack claimed by a
group linked to ISIL was the worst in Russia in decades.
President Vladimir Putin has declared Sunday and national day
of mourning. Daughter Jabari reports from Moscow, you know,
Adam Curry: just just to pause it for a second what confuses
the matter even more, is they just this is Al Jazeera. They
said ISIL, which is a glom Islamics. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: We have, they're sticking to it. They're still
whether anybody likes it or not.
Adam Curry: I heard a report that said Dinesh, which is
another one of those names. And then we recorded an image in the
US we have ISIS K. I mean, the branding is all over the place
for these guys. That's
John C Dvorak: because they don't exist anymore. This bogus
scene
Unknown: the morning after one of the worst attacks by an armed
group in Russia's recent history. Emotions are running
high as Russians come to terms with what happened, including
those who survived. And the prostitution
is they started to shoot in our direction. They shot people and
threw petrol bombs. People were panicking and so scared. Only
now I understand how lucky I am. To
the point where it is so terrible what's happened here. I
really can't comprehend this. It is an ugly act of terror.
They're animals
have heavy security and checkpoints now surround the
suburban area about 20 kilometers northwest of the
center of Moscow. People have been coming here all day to pay
tribute to those who lost their lives in what officials call a
terrible tragedy. The task of recovering the debt is expected
to continue for the next few days, as will the morning of the
families of the victims along with the rest of the country.
President Vladimir Putin has called the attack a bloody and
barbaric act and vowed revenge.
Most alone, we will identify and punish everyone who was behind
the terrorist attack who prepared this strike against
Russia and its people. Okay.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, so this then devolves over time into
three theories. One a Ukrainian attack was in Russia, right,
which I kind of subscribe to. Also the other one is that the
main operative was a CIA guy, and this is a CIA operation.
Adam Curry: I'll go with the CIA Mossad for 300 Alex
John C Dvorak: and then the third option is to false flag
that Putin or
Adam Curry: just like he blew up Nord Stream Yeah, that's my
favorite. Yeah, well,
John C Dvorak: no more like when he blew up the apartment complex
in the Chechnya an area which North Stream is not part of this
theory. Let's go it's part two.
Unknown: You come when you will, no one will be able to so the
poisonous seeds of discord and panic in our multinational
society.
As a President address the nation, hundreds of people
queued to donate blood at centers in Moscow. The FSB
security service set for suspects had been arrested while
heading to the border with Ukraine, and that they had
contacts in that country. Ukrainian officials have denied
involvement. These pictures purportedly show stores of
ammunition seized by officials inside the Caracas City Hall,
suggesting the attack was planned in advance ISIL in
Afghanistan has claimed responsibility Dorsa Jabbari Al
Jazeera Moscow,
Adam Curry: here's a here's a question that I don't think is
really being asked to what end this attack to what and for what
reason? I mean, the only reason can really be to destabilize the
Russian Government to destabilize Putin, because he
can't keep his people safe. That has regime change written all
over it a week after he's reelected. President or as some
would say, dictator that they don't talk about
John C Dvorak: who's into regime change. We international
organization, let me think,
Adam Curry: Catholics in action, maybe.
John C Dvorak: But let's go with this. This analysis which blames
the whole thing on Putin. Well,
Unknown: in his address to the nation, President Putin said the
alleged attackers were arrested whilst fleeing to Ukraine.
Ukraine's President Vladimir Zelensky has accused Putin of
trying to shift blame to Kyiv for the attack, which means that
Mr. worships Mr. disloyal
human instead of addressing Russian citizens Putin was
silent for the whole day. Thinking about how to link it to
Ukraine. Everything is completely predictable.
Rob McBride sent us this update from Keith. Ukrainian
officials here have dismissed any claims of a Ukrainian
connection to this attack. We've heard from under the use of
who's a senior representative with a military intelligence
here calling such claims and nonsense that the alleged
perpetrators were apprehended as they were approaching the border
area, with Ukraine, saying it's the kind of explanation put out
by Russian security, the FSB, for what he called a zombified
Russian population, making the point that after more than two
years of full scale war, that border area on the Russian side
is so saturated with roadblocks with soldiers with security,
that if you were trying to escape such an attack, and to
stay free and then escape the law, it's the one place that you
would not be heading. We've also heard for the from the Center
for countering disinformation, another government body here and
other government agency, which has gone further by suggesting
suggesting but without any evidence that this may have been
the work of Russian special forces as a so called false flag
operation, intimating that Russia has been suspected of
conducting such attacks before around about the turn of the
century. That was, as a precursor, they say, to the
invasion of Chechnya. And the reason that security forces of
Russia may have orchestrated or be involved in this attack is as
a justification for a new round of mobilization Robert bright Al
Jazeera kif
John C Dvorak: Yeah, the reason that I would suspect this is not
the case and false flag is that in the false flag in Chechnya
the people killed were Chechnya ins not Russians. Yeah. So
there's no evidence that they that Putin and his folk kill
their own to to create a false flag. There's also I'm I'm
sorry, I'm so so leaning to Ukraine because they some
reports show that the the route back to Ukraine was cleared for
these guys to escape, as opposed to the commentary made by the
Ukrainians that you can't get through. There's too many people
too many cars, too many robots. Can
Adam Curry: I ask you then, to what and what is the point of
Ukraine doing this? Like how we got you don't don't bomb the
crap out of Kyiv? I mean, what's the point?
John C Dvorak: I don't know maybe for we'll learn a little
more than we can discuss it.
Unknown: Tell me Tell us Agra masa is a senior lecturer in
security and development at King's College London, spoke
college as Russia's attempt to link Ukraine to the attack in
Moscow is unjustified.
I think that this is a huge security failure also, because
of the audacity of the attack the number of casualties, which
keeps growing. And this big fire which engulfs the place. Also,
apparently, there were not many policemen there, it took them
quite some time to get there. There's the sort of the security
structures. And that is also quite astonishing, because this
is a very big place where people were gathering so one would have
expected some kind of police deployment, if only for internal
security reasons, you know. So it is it is very embarrassing.
And what is very sad is like, it seems that the Russians are
using this, to build a connection with Ukraine. So I
fear, I very much fear that Ukrainians are gonna see massive
attacks and massive sort of bombardment, or something of
that kind coming from Russia, although I don't think they have
any connection whatsoever. But this is showing that the
Ukrainians are somehow behind, you know, has bought into sort
of divert the attention, because where would he attack?
Otherwise? I mean, he's not going to start bombing
Afghanistan.
Adam Curry: You know, the, the problem I have, and it's
interesting, because I remember, a couple of weeks ago, I
remember there was I was just looking for it now. And of
course, I didn't clip it because I wasn't thinking about it that
way. I remember, a a warning went out from the State
Department that said, American travelers, also embassy workers
or whatever else it was, be careful. Terrorist attacks being
planned in Russia, particularly large gatherings and concerts.
Oops, that that was a little irritating. And then when you
when you have MSNBC, and before we start to discuss it, I'll
play two clips here. We have MSNBC bringing on John Brennan.
You've got to wonder
Unknown: Putin had a warning right that even the United
States said, hey, look, this this could potentially have But
you're in danger etc, etc.
Adam Curry: By the way, that warning was just the public
State Department warning. It wasn't like a secret phone call
to the Kremlin. It was a public warning. Just
Unknown: for for for the uninformed uninitiated,
we are on the opposite side of Russia. We are defending
Ukraine, the the the Russian Federation. Oh, gee,
Adam Curry: thanks, douche. I was so uninformed. Wow. Just for
the uninformed, just so you know, we're not with the
Russians. We
Unknown: are on the opposite side of Russia. We are defending
Ukraine, the the the Russian Federation still considered a
problem. There's there's no issue. There's no question
there. Unless you happen to be a certain kind of Republican. What
is the incentive? What was the incentive of the United States
to give warnings on terrorist attacks like this to Putin's
government? And the fact that this came true? Does it in any
way fall relations? Are there any sort of undercover thank
yous that are occurring? Or did the Russians just sort of ignore
this and say, Well, you warned us about something, but that
just makes you suspicious. In our eyes, the US intelligence
community takes very seriously its responsibility that's called
duty to warn, if the US intelligence gets information
about planned terrorist attacks against targets around the
world. And it's credible, it's reliable and specific. And
especially if it's specific, which this was, we will share
that information with the Foreign Services, the security
and intelligence services. And clearly there was some
significant specificity to this when there was reference to
concert halls and in coming days. And so the timing of this
warning, I think, was very much on target in terms of what
happened here.
Adam Curry: Some could call it an incredible coincidence, but
we just it was on target. Putin, by the way, doesn't take it that
way. This is the BBC
Unknown: a couple of weeks ago, there were warnings from the
west from the US that extremists could be planning attacks in
Russia on large gatherings, including concerts. Yes. Mr.
Putin openly rejected that he dismissed it. He called it
blackmail, which is an unusual choice of words. I don't quite
know what he meant.
Adam Curry: didn't quite know what he meant. Yeah, you do.
Come on. I'm a podcast. Even I can figure that out. You're
trying to throw your blood you're like, hey, if I if I
don't do if I don't do something that you want me to do, you're
gonna you're gonna cause some event at a concert. It's that
simple. Then we have ISIS whose this is a good clip from the
BBC. This is fake news. It wasn't the Islamic State no set
again.
Unknown: Mark Goff is a former member of parliament for
Vladimir Putin's United Russia party, and a supporter of the
president. Julian Warrick asked him for his reaction to the
attack by
visitors this Caracas City Hall many times and it was a great,
very, very big tourist center, one of the biggest in Russia in
Europe, I think. And also I visited a few times this concert
hall, and of course, as is a very big treasure thinking
speaking in Russia here, absolute majority of the people
strongly believes that this terrorist attack had been
organized by Ukrainian regime and also some rumors and
permission from American intelligence services, Islamic
State, but it's very difficult to believe in this version.
Well, let me just go there for a moment if I may, because the
Islamic State group has claimed it carried out the attack but
you're saying that but that's what they've no, no,
no, just wrong information. Okay. This was fake news.
Organize the resources close to the Ukraine that Islamic State
claimed that they take responsibility, no answer
official resources. This this also old formula had been used
by Islamic State you know, a few years ago had been useful. This
fake news. I
Adam Curry: love it when he says a fake news. And then he starts
over modulating. He's really upset about this. No, no, no,
no, no, no, no,
John C Dvorak: I agree with him. This Islamic State thing is
bullcrap. For one thing, what are they doing in Afghanistan,
where the Taliban runs everything and I get to put up
with these guys,
Adam Curry: but I think these guys were actually from
Kazakhstan.
John C Dvorak: I have the one guy they call us from Ukraine.
Adam Curry: I have I have report somewhere this is all former
from Kazakhstan. I don't know maybe it's in this one. This is
the CBC Canada Naviance. We
Unknown: heard from the Russian investors or give committee and
as well as giving an update on the number of those killed,
which were told included three children. It's that the
attackers used flammable liquid to set fire to sections of the
concert hall last night, that automatic weapons were used in
the attack, and that the ammunition left behind at the
scene is now undergoing ballistic genetic and
fingerprint examination. Now ISIS has claimed responsibility
for the attack the United States says that claim is credible. And
earlier this month, the White House said it had warned Russia
of a potential attack in Moscow. That extremists had imminent
plans to target large gatherings in the city, including concerts.
And as a result, the US State Department advised Americans
there to stay away from large gatherings. But those warnings
appear to have been dismissed by Russian officials with Putin
even describing them as open blackmail, and an attempt to
scare and destabilize Russian society. Security in Russia has
as you would imagine, now being tightened in response to the
attack Russia's worst in 20 years. Tomorrow, a day of
mourning will be observed to remember the scores of people
who were killed and injured.
Adam Curry: I didn't label it which which I got so many of
these reports, but I'm I can't go with Ukraine. I've got to say
that this is this is a typical destabilization operation. And
you know, and if anything we've got to rekindle that Ukraine
stuff a little we need we need Putin to get mad when he people
there did not like him. This has us written all over it I don't
like saying it but I just don't see how what you use Ukraine's
No I just don't see that.
John C Dvorak: I can see you got a coked up guy run in Ukraine.
He goes out of control Zelinsky and yeah, I can see him there.
Let's see. Can we do this? Yeah, I think so we can make a way for
the Get back. We can do it and it escapes the lens. Not for
cocaine dreamed cars, not
Adam Curry: in control of anything. He's not he's an
actor. He's just reading his line Gree
John C Dvorak: with that, unfortunately, but he does have
some sway that he knows how to collect money.
Adam Curry: Well, let's see what he had to say.
Unknown: Ukraine's president has reacted angrily to Vladimir
Putin's claims that cube was involved in a deadly shooting
and bomb attack at a concert hall near Moscow on Friday. As
we record this podcast, the number of dead stands at 133.
Russia says it's arrested all three who stormed the Crocus
City Hall, along with seven other people. In a televised
address. Russia's president claimed the gunman had helped
from Ukraine and we're heading there when captured, despite the
Islamic State group saying it carried out the shooting. In the
past few hours. Volodymyr Zelensky, has responded saying
Moscow is predictably seeking to divert blame drawer
of BuzzFeed,
or what's happened on Friday in Moscow. It's obvious that both
Russian President Vladimir Putin and his gang are trying to shift
responsibility onto someone else. They always use the same
methods when it's already happened when instead of dealing
with his Russian citizens and addressing their concerns. Putin
was silent for the whole day thinking about how to link the
events to Ukraine. Everything he does is completely predictable.
That's completely us written talking points.
John C Dvorak: Kill this idea. For a whole day seems like a
positive thing, not a negative thing where you jumped the gun
and just start yammering. But
Adam Curry: But the whole point of Zelinsky saying he's not you
know, it's calming his Russian people. This is a
destabilization action. Clearly, and I can only point towards
douchebags who are running the show, and it's probably the out
of control intelligence community. And it also
obfuscates one other little thing that took place
Unknown: coming into this summit, EU leaders had to
deliver additional support for Ukraine, and more painful
Russia. So for key they agreed to buy more weapons using
interest earned from Russian Central Bank, frozen in Europe.
But the Kremlin has been sending threats over this decision. The
Commission and council presidents were asked if they
feared Russia's retaliation.
Adam Curry: So this now this is interesting, because now we're
going to hear all the nutjobs from the EU who are stealing the
money stealing it, and then pretending they're giving it to
Ukraine. But no, they're going to give it to us to our military
industrial base as it's now called 90% of it and and that's
just fine. That's just that's just exactly what we should do
Queen Ursula and the other guys.
Unknown: We are not intimidated by Russia and that's why we are
making decisions to support Ukraine into a to counter Russia
and to sanction Russia and we think this is fair, the revenue
so this was not just for this it will be used affair Ukraine for
the Ukrainian because they are a victim of this role of
aggression most large by Russia. So
Adam Curry: it's fair that we take Russia's money and give it
to American defense companies. That's fair. That's fair.
Unknown: We did the move because we are convinced that it's the
right way to go. Russia has to pay for what it is doing
Ukraine, and it's fully aligned with the development of our g7
partners. So
increased pressure on Moscow, the Commission proposed tariffs.
Notice
Adam Curry: she didn't say, NATO, she said our g7 partners,
I thought that was interesting,
Unknown: fully aligned with the development of our g7
partners. So increased pressure on Moscow, the Commission
proposed tariffs on its grain. It said Russia exported agri
products worth 1.3 billion euros to the EU last year. That's
about 1% of the blocks market. We
do not want Russia to have any kind of revenues from the EU,
agri food market, for example, the grain market, so putting
tariffs on Belarusian and Russian grain is taking away
that competitiveness.
Adam Curry: This is very interesting, because now all of
a sudden, she saw my Bella rousse, but she says Belarusian
grain that's with one s Bella Russian grain is what it really
is Bella Rousses in between Russia and Ukraine. So now these
people are getting screwed in this deal to
Unknown: this moves makes clear that we do not want Russian
grain or Belarusian grain on the EU market. But transit is still
possible.
The traders say this is mostly symbolic because Russian and
Belarusian exports to the EU are low, especially compared to
those from Ukraine, which farmers in Europe have been
protesting against for months. This is causing tensions and
Member States France and Poland want the EU to stop allowing
Ukrainian grain into the block in order to appease angry
farmers.
Adam Curry: This is a beautiful little thing they've done here
on the sidelines, is it let's stop more grain from coming in.
So we can update Well guys, we need Ukrainian grain. Sorry.
Sorry. 70,000 Protesting Polish farmers. Sorry. Sorry. No, it's
just not gonna happen. We won't know of course, what really
happened here for a while. I do have a Scott Ritter with the
judge nap. If
John C Dvorak: he doesn't usually go does Scott, let's let
me mention that. There's been a lot of reports out of Italy,
which has been the target of the Russian grain exports, which are
not included in the other sanctions. And they've flooded
the Italian market with durum wheat for pasta making. Oh, and
all the other for the locals in particular. That's it's
collapsed the price of wheat in Italy, but made pasta really
cheap.
Adam Curry: I guess that's kind of good. I mean, isn't that what
the nobody
John C Dvorak: talks about that in the in this discussion?
That's weird. No.
Adam Curry: Is it though? Is it weird?
John C Dvorak: No, no, none of it's weird, because this is all
this is all schemed, and all we're doing is picking at them
at the morsels
Unknown: phase with the maneuver gun.
Adam Curry: There we go past the Glock. I get to my pasta Glog
locked and loaded. Let's go to Scott Ritter. He, he he doesn't
know some things. And let's see what he had to say there with
Judge Knapp on judging freedom. We
Unknown: never thought the Russians could do what they're
doing. Right. We thought by sanctioning Russia, that they
would collapse. So what's happened now is that we've
sanctioned Russia, and Russia hasn't collapsed. Russia has
built this, you know, assemble this vibrant defense industry
that's out producing all of NATO and producing good weapons. The
Russians are now I love the people. You know, NATO is
expanding. We brought in Finland, we brought in Sweden,
the Russians way. That's all right. We're going to create 14
New divisions, you know, dozens of new brigades and checkmate.
But see the Russians have a system that can do that now. And
so now what we're doing is to justify what we've done. People
are saying, we have a new strategy. And that is we're
going to try and repeat what happened in the 1970s and 80s,
where we got an arms race with the Russians, and we bankrupted
them. We got them to spin themselves into oblivion. But
that's not happening. You know what's going to happen? You
know, who's going to spin themselves into oblivion? We are
United States and NATO. Because Russia is so far ahead of us
right now. We have to play catch up.
Adam Curry: I love Ritter man. Yeah, he's funny. I got one more
clip from him that European
Unknown: countries are talking about Bucha a war footing to
catch up, America is looking at a revitalized Russian strategic
nuclear force. And we go everything they got outclasses
what we have, so we have to get new submarines, new ICBMs new
bombers. Congress, just so people understand the
replacement missile for the Minuteman three, the ground
based deterrence system, or whatever they call it. The
United States Air Force is going to cost you know, a couple 100
billion dollars. That's a lot of money, by the way. But it just
got through its first funding review, benchmark, by law. And
by law, if early on in these programs, if you're already like
12% over, Congress has to call a halt and review it. Otherwise,
you're heading down a path where what should have been $100
million fighter becomes a $12 billion fighter, right? The
we're 22% over already, I'm telling the American people
right now, this ballistic missile that we want to replace
the Minuteman three with is going to cost over a trillion
dollars. And here's the thing, it isn't going to work. The
bomber that we're gonna get to replace the b two is going to
cost far more than they say it's going to cause and it isn't
going to work the way we want it to what
Adam Curry: you've just described is an extraordinary, a
monumental, catastrophic waste.
Unknown: Judge, you know, the Pentagon has run multiple
audits, and they've admitted themselves that, you know,
there's a trillion that's where the T dollars over a trillion
dollars worth of stuff, they just don't know what happened to
it. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Well, okay. So give them more. Give
them more, more, more, more and more. If you have kids who are
out of school and looking for a job. They better be looking in
the defense industry. Yeah, that's, that's that's our
business now. Pharma fans. Yeah. Let's go back to MSNBC because
they're always fun to listen to. What
Unknown: do we know about this group? It's called ISIS K ISIS
Corizon, which has claimed responsibility rather. Yeah,
actually,
we know quite a bit ally. They'd love to trade destruction over
the past few years with huge attacks. A little bit like what
we saw yesterday in Moscow, another group was founded back
in 2015, in Afghanistan, by former members of the Taliban
for whom that group was not extreme enough, they thought the
Taliban was too moderate. So this is the same group that
attacked Afghans who were trying desperately to leave their
country as American troops withdrew back in 2021. You were
a member, that horrendous attack that killed as many as 170
civilians and 13 American servicemen at cobbles
International Airport. And just this year, in January, they
struck again, this time in Iran. And they claimed credit for a
huge bombing that killed 84 people at a memorial procession
for an Iranian commander and intelligence chief who had been
killed by the Americans by a drone a few years earlier. And
just like we're seeing with this attack in Moscow, there was a
similar pattern. The US says that they had warned the
Iranians that terrorists were planning something and their
warnings were ignored. And US intelligence has said that last
night's attacks, as you mentioned, that they were indeed
related to that warning two weeks ago that apparently went
on heated Chad
Adam Curry: like MSNBC because they're so obviously a megaphone
for the intelligence community with Brennan. I mean, it's so
obvious that oh, well, it's ISIS. It's ISIS, Kay, it's ISIS.
But there's skepticism Stephanie rule, free will of the boys at
the Goldman Sachs trading floor.
Unknown: Well, what about skepticism around ISIS? Yes,
they've claimed responsibility, but they did not prove any, they
didn't provide any proof of this. And the claim did come
from an ISIS affiliated News Agency on telegram again, not
exactly a trusted
source. That's correct. 70. It's not exactly a trusted source,
they have executed other tasks and taken claim for him. Some of
the accounts that I've seen are remarkably, you know, credible
in the sense that they do take claim and they do annotate
attacks that happen around the world and take responsibility
for it.
Adam Curry: So that's, that's the source of some dude on
telegram. Oh, ISIS. Come on. I was wonder why telegram is still
an app. That's that's the, that's
John C Dvorak: the reason. The Op
Adam Curry: app is what it is. Unbeliev Okay. Well, more from
MSNBC,
Unknown: I looked up a little bit about the group that was
performing it. It's a rock band that's been around since the
late 70s. Called picnic. They actually were banned from
performing in the Ukraine since 2016. Because they performed in
Crimea. Do you think that there was any sort of symbolism to
this? Do you think that that, that not just the venue, but the
band had anything? Or do you really think again, it's more
likely to be ISIS because it doesn't fit the strategy of the
Ukrainian army?
Adam Curry: They should have asked me to answer this
question. I can tell you all about the rock band technique.
Yes, indeed. I don't know. That's a great question. I don't
know, band, by the way, I love the band kind
Unknown: of approach, you know, kind of hippie band from the,
Adam Curry: you know, the late 70s, early 80s is not a pro
Putin kind of group that would be there if I were
guesstimating. But I don't know of any particular reason why
they would strike there, other than the fact that the owner of
this complex is close to Mr. Putin. So maybe that is what why
they targeted this particular place. Oh, goodness gracious,
just filling up the airwaves. People wasted my time. I'd like
to reclaim some of my time from all this nonsense. In the
meantime, that was it was quite destructive man, the fire which
just there was a nice looking building to downtown Moscow is
is modern looking.
John C Dvorak: Well, that's it wasn't downtown that things
pretty much. But
Adam Curry: even when you see shots of Moscow, it's like, wow,
they got some pretty cool build. That's
John C Dvorak: what Tucker says, you know, about the I dress time
I was there it was very Soviet dish, how the
Adam Curry: hotel that I stayed in in 1988 is closed. doesn't
even
John C Dvorak: need to mirror the egg was just spelled M and
backwards N R. And that place was known as the place roll a
diplomat stayed, by the way.
Adam Curry: Tucker was just there. Coincidence? I did pick
up a great point.
John C Dvorak: And just nobody's picked up on now. Of
Adam Curry: course not. I got this clip, which was a nice one.
It's from a professor, his name is Orla to Nanda he is I believe
Norwegian and he was speaking at a conference called the
totalitarian media machine. Yeah, now he's not like that.
Yeah. But I've put the, of course the link to the full
video on the show notes. He's not a great speaker, I had to
cut out a lot. Because he's it's not his native tongue. But he
gives us the genesis of two of our favorite terms, one Putin's
aggression. And that number one full scale invasion. He has the
genesis of these two terms, how could
Unknown: you succeed, to get the media to think in these terms?
What happened was, as he spoke about the full scale invasion
proteins, full scale invasion, that was set by Dmitry coolibah,
in the early morning, the 24th of February, exactly two years
ago, and every journalist voted him. And even if you listen to
the news, in Norway, and probably in other countries,
when they start to speak about Ukraine, they start with the
full scale invasion of Ukraine. You couldn't mention the grain
or the war in Ukraine without saying the full scale invasion.
And the same is about an unprovoked attack. What does it
come from? Early in the morning, the 24th of February, Boris
Johnson set, spoke about an important unprovoked attack on
Ukraine. And then later on in the day, President Biden said,
spoke about Russia's unprovoked attack on Ukraine. It's clear
that, you know, if you will success if he will succeed, you
have to create the truth. From the very early hours, I mean,
the so called Truth, the hegemonic discourse, you could
say, you, you have to create it from the very early hours of the
event of the war. And that was what was done the day before, or
one day and a half before he was at the White House. So he's he
he met President Biden, he met SECURITY SECRETARY Austin, but
this means they have briefed him about you know, more or less
what to say. Yeah.
Adam Curry: So we need to pay attention to these things that
were put into the media at the beginning of the crisis of the
event, such as ISIS
John C Dvorak: unprovoked a terrible week picked up on
unprovoked attack death and full scale invasion pretty quickly
because the unprovoked part is both bogus. Yeah. And I think
we've developed that thesis pretty Yeah,
Adam Curry: no, that was that guy goes into it. And he says,
you know, this was odd that's obviously not true. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: But it's been analyzed to death be unprovoked.
Yeah.
Adam Curry: I just I just wish I could find. Oh, wow, this is
interesting. You know that jack for so big guy? Yeah. Naval
Intelligence. Yeah. Always on Banyans war room. Is there? Oh,
yeah. And can you if you're naval intelligence, can you ever
not be Naval Intelligence after that?
John C Dvorak: But generally, that's where Woodward came from,
oh, another fine specimen. And so Woodward who is naval
intelligence and he who knows what he is working, who he's
working for now, but he's the one they somebody's writing his
books, because he's just not it's not possible to do the
books he does. Unless you have sources that are deep within the
intelligence agencies. Well,
Adam Curry: he makes an interesting point about
Ukraine's involvement in this Russian catastrophe at Caracas.
We which is, you know, you're, you're thinking right now that
Ukraine was doing this, and he has an interesting point about
that. Well,
John C Dvorak: this is the this is what they do. Alex, they'll
tell you, they're going to attack Russia, you've got the US
Embassy again, coming out two weeks ago. And they were people
had posted it at the time that this is a very strange, usually
when the US Embassy puts out, you know, specific responses,
the State Department warnings guidance, they'll say, Oh, get
us situations are destabilizing. Be careful, don't you know avoid
these areas? That kind of thing? No, this was specific. It was
specific events. It was a specific timeframe. 48 hours, do
not go to concerts. It's specifically said concerts and
specifically said extremist. Now, we're also being told Alex
right now that the White House itself is distancing itself from
the attack saying that there's no knowledge of Ukraine or any
Ukrainians being involved us. Wow, that's a very, that's a
very quick investigation that you're able to that you're able
to conduct amazing that you already know exactly what took
place as it's
Unknown: like the Russians would
like they blame the Russians for
John C Dvorak: nordstream. Day one. But Alex, here's here's the
key. The key to this is people need to understand that if the
US rate the US government must absolutely must distance
themselves from this attack. Because if there is a link to
Ukraine in this, then that means that the money that the Congress
is currently spending going to send up to the Senate sent to
the White House for the signature is going to fund
attacks like this around the world attacks on civilians,
attacks on women, attacks on people going to concerts, that
means that the United States, if this is true, that means that if
the United States is involved in this, then guess what boys and
girls, then that would mean that the United States was funding
terrorism and terrorist attacks around the world? Good point.
Yeah. That was that was Info Wars. Yes. Yes. You said war
room? No. I
Adam Curry: said he's been on war room. Oh, I see. Okay. This
is this was, of course as Info Wars. It's where we get our
information from.
John C Dvorak: Rarely thank God.
Adam Curry: So, man, you know, there's a lot going on. I mean,
the basically, no, I mean, I would extrapolate differently.
No, no, we use Russia as money that we stole from Euro clear to
fund Ukraine. And so the indirectly is Russia's fault.
For funding terrorism. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: Well, that would be some logic, I would I would
expect and one of the back room somewhere,
Adam Curry: somewhere. That's also very sad. You know, are we
now what do you think's going on we now in a Cold War? I mean,
Putin hasn't. I mean, yeah, he says Ukraine, but
John C Dvorak: and I don't know. It's all dependent on where the
Trump gets elected. Yeah, and I don't even know if that's if I'm
correct on that Trump could have been co opted by now. We have no
idea. The whole thing could nothing could change. Well, you
take that position.
Adam Curry: This Trump thing is great now, because at the last
hour at the last hour, a Hail Mary is beautiful. He needs you
know, half a billion dollars. Oh, baby. Yeah. Oh baby.
Unknown: Donald Trump's social media platform is seeking to
merge with a little known public company. That company's
shareholders are scheduled to vote on the merger later this
morning. It's a shell company
it was specifically created to merge with Trump's company in
markets is called a backdoor listing. It's a way to go public
in a different way from a traditional IPO. And later this
morning, shareholders need to actually approve the merger. The
big question is if we're going to see enough shareholders show
up to vote, if that goes through, though, that would be
fantastic news for President Trump. He would own over 50% of
the new company that will that will be worth over $3 billion.
That's three will be a huge chunk of change.
Okay, so $3 million, like you said, a huge chunk of change. Is
truth social worth that much?
No, it is not. I mean, let's look at the numbers. This is a
company that only had over $3 million in sales for the first
nine months of last year. That's three with an M, this time, and
he lost nearly $50 million. Nonetheless, the value here is
President Trump. Without Trump, there is no truth social, he has
millions of supporters. And right now, a lot of the
shareholders in the deal are believed to be Trump supporters.
They are the true believers. They are people who want to
support Trump no matter what, and they will happily buy the
shares. How soon will those shares start trading? Well, if
the shareholders do approve the deal today, it would start
trading as a new company by next week. It could be very volatile
until but hey, it would now be officially called Trump media
and technology group with a new stock symbol D J. T. Donald J.
Trump.
Adam Curry: This is beautiful. So
John C Dvorak: of course, you know, this is these reports are
really Bogut IV. Oh, yeah, one thing it's
Adam Curry: not called a backdoor listing. It's a spec.
It's a spec
John C Dvorak: and nobody wants to use that because it's kind of
discredited, but it still works. I have some more. I have some
more and and this idea that is worthless or like overvalued at
three or six. Is overlooks the fact that Reddit which is never
made a nickel even though true social has made a million
dollars. Reddit hasn't made a nickel is worth $9.5 billion. As
of today,
Adam Curry: let me play the Reddit clip social
Unknown: media company Reddit Rose 48%. Yesterday, Chief
Operating Officer Chen Wong says the artificial revolution is at
the center of read its value proposition. I love the
artificial revolution,
Adam Curry: not
John C Dvorak: artificial value proposition. What? That's what
she said. One of those buzzwords, which I just detest.
Yeah, but which is what's your value proposition for the no
agenda show?
Adam Curry: Right then she says the artificial revolution she
forgets Yeah. She
John C Dvorak: combined it with value proposition which makes no
sense. Chief
Unknown: Operating Officer Chen Wong says the artificial
revolution is at the center of read its value proposition.
Large
language models need data to train on and when you look at
read its corpus 90 years of human experience organized by
topic with well in moderation and relevance. That's incredibly
important to building both a chat capability and the
freshness of information. So that's an area where you know we
see opportunity
and read it's Jan Wong tells Bloomberg the firm is also in
the early stages of allowing third parties to license access
to data on the platform.
Adam Curry: Yes, Reddit brings a fresh corpus to the to Corp.
Fresh. This is great. Wow, how bad is AI going to suck if it's
built on Reddit? Well,
John C Dvorak: before you go there, I do want to play my one
AI clip, bro.
Adam Curry: Okay, we'd have to go back though. We got to go
back to Trump in a moment. Okay. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: this is a dissident actually relates to
Trump power. Right. Where is it? Michael Cohen uses AI? Oh, no.
Oh, here we go.
Unknown: In New York. A federal judge won't sanction Trump's
Former Attorney Michael Cohen. Cohen accidentally gave his
lawyer fake case citations generated by artificial
intelligence. The judge called it embarrassing, but he refused
to end Cohen supervised release. Cohen pleaded guilty in 2018 to
campaign finance violations and tax evasion.
Adam Curry: I thought we knew this. This was I thought this
was already an old story.
John C Dvorak: We didn't know it but it hasn't been we didn't
play this clip. Artificial Intelligence. This is using AI
to do legal briefs and just make stuff up. Artificial
Adam Curry: Intelligence is a direct insult to God isn't no
good. Alright, let's go back to MSNBC. Let's talk about this
SPAC
Unknown: that merger between Trump's socials parent company,
and digital world acquisitions was two and a half years in the
making. But there's a story to be told that provides some
important context. Trump's current situation and involves
tick tock, a conservative and a really rich man named Jeffrey
Yes, yah, yah is the Pennsylvania billionaire owner
of the financial firm, Susquehanna International Group.
He's a conservative mega donor and a major investor who has a
$33 billion stake in bytedance, the Chinese parent company that
owns tick tock keep that in mind. Reuters identified us as
the top donor of this election season having donated quote,
more than $46 million for Republican causes so far in the
2024 election cycle data from political donations tracker open
secrets shows
Adam Curry: ah things get deep Pierre things got interesting
EOS EOS is a part of this.
Unknown: EOS is also a major donor to the conservative
nonprofit group Club for Growth. It was through Club for Growth.
That
Adam Curry: by the way, if we had a meeting you and I would, I
think recommend not using that name. Club for Growth. It just
doesn't sound right. But sounds
John C Dvorak: like you've got a club and you're gonna hit growth
in the head with it, like
Adam Curry: you got a club foot and you need to grow. I don't
know, it doesn't. It's just no good Trump and
Unknown: Yash recently got acquainted. And this is where
things began to catch the critics attention. Trump had a
falling out with Club for Growth during the 2022 midterms. The
two camps split on whom to support in some key races, but
earlier this year, they mended fences with a little help from
your boss, who was one of the people who reached out to the
former president about attending Club for Growth retreat this
year. So on March 1, Donald Trump accepted the invitation
and attended the group's retreat in Palm Beach. He even gave a
speech at the gathering, during which he gave us a shout out,
calling the billionaire fantastic. Then, six days later,
on March 7, Trump suddenly announced that he changed his
mind about tick tock, and came out against banning it. This was
a significant reversal, especially considering that in
2020, while he was still President Donald Trump signed an
executive order that stated quote, the United States much
take aggressive action against the owners of tick tock to
protect our national security and, quote, Steve Bannon who
served in the Trump administration suggested that
Trump changed his stance for quote, the Yas coin.
Adam Curry: Ah, oh, so maybe because of course Trump will
have a six month lockup on this reverse IPO this SPAC deal if
it's worth 3 billion I mean, this is kind of fun. If it's
worth 3 billion his his stake so the company's worth 6 billion of
just the market cap based upon shares and price. Even if it
goes you know, even it goes down by half you know, he can get a
collar on that real easy. Anyway, if I had the money we
got here you go just five years five, you
John C Dvorak: get a collar very easily and again, that's what
you do. And this way, the way but ways a little suspicious.
Adam Curry: Every single Trumper out there is going to go and
start buying the stock. I
John C Dvorak: would think this will be like,
Adam Curry: like, what was that? Was like Reddit now. What's that
group that now the apes. The apes who buy who tubes make made
AMC go through the roof.
John C Dvorak: Are you me or GameStop? Yeah, those guys.
Adam Curry: Those guys yeah, those guys. The
Unknown: Philadelphia Inquirer reports quote, Jeffrey OSes firm
was the largest institutional shareholder as of December, in
the company that has merged with truth social. Susquehanna has
held the stock and digital world acquisitions Corp since the
merger between digital world Acquisition Corp. And Trump
media was first announced in October of 2021.
Adam Curry: All right, then.
John C Dvorak: We know Trump's negotiator as he claims to be a
sneaky way to get out of
Adam Curry: everybody. They all want them they will want Letitia
James to take his building. This is no fun. He can't pull this
off
Unknown: at the end all week. As lawyers have insisted Donald
Trump lacks the cash he needs to secure a bond to cover nearly
half billion dollar civil fraud judgment. Tonight Trump is
claiming he does he just wants to spend it elsewhere. I
currently have almost 500 million. I have
Adam Curry: the money. I just choose not to spend on this
nonsense. Okay. I bought the place to buy it.
Unknown: He just wants to spend it elsewhere. I currently have
almost $500 million in cash Trump wrote on social media, a
substantial amount of which I intended to use in my campaign.
But Trump hasn't offered any proof he actually has $500
million in cash. No, ever. Trump hasn't put any of his own money
into his campaign since 2016. Oh, the former president has
until Monday to post a bond or New York Attorney General
Letitia James told us she'll take action if
he does not have funds to pay off the judgment then we will
seek judgment enforcement mechanisms in court and we will
ask the judge to seize his assets but
tonight a potentially new she's so breathy isn't she?
John C Dvorak: Don't ask the court. She is terrible. This is
like she's breathy more and more inclined to like I'm not I've
already bought into the idea that mo brought up wishes that
this is a no these black women are outraged and they're they're
going to be taken down one by one. Oh, yeah.
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. Every everything they're doing was
trumped they put a black person in front. Do you stand there?
You do it? If it works black woman, black man mainly black
woman where they got Eric Adams kind of a black woman. That's a
Unknown: pay off the judge. Really do anything seek judgment
enforcement mechanisms in court. And we will ask the judge to
seize his assets.
Tonight, a potentially new source of income for Trump. Oh,
investors voting today to take Trump's struggling social media
company public is stake on paper, roughly $3 billion. That
may sound like a windfall, David, but unless Trump gets
special permission from shareholders, he cannot convert
that stake into cash for six months.
Adam Curry: That's someone who doesn't know what they're
talking about. No,
John C Dvorak: everybody doesn't know that not one person has
mentioned the potential for buying a collar. Let's see what
is a very common way that's been done over the last decade or
more for these IPO people. Let's
Adam Curry: I hate to do this to you. I did not get these clips.
It's the Jones conglomerate. I do have a Brooks K part. Duo.
John C Dvorak: This takes a lot of nerve.
Adam Curry: Hey, it's your boy. It's It's It's Steve who did
this okay. Is your boy was a three. He's
John C Dvorak: playing both sides of the fence. He's trying
to he's trying to leapfrog his brother.
Adam Curry: Here we go. This is Brooks. These are two opposite
sides of the spectrum. We're told Brooks and K part on PBS
news
Unknown: on Meantime, Donald Trump needs to find half a
billion dollars. And he has to find it fairly quickly. He has
until Monday to post a bond covering the full amount of the
$454 million civil fraud judgment against him as he
appeals this ruling. And if he can't somehow find the money,
the New York ag Leticia James, she might start seizing some of
his assets to help cover that obligation. David, for any
candidate running for public office, especially the
presidency, who is short on cash and who has to find $454
million. That is a serious liability. And it also raises in
this case, some national security question. Oh,
Adam Curry: yeah,
Unknown: I mean, he I have a few problems with the seizure, their
Associated Press did a good survey vote, but it's 70 years
of cases like this. And in cases where they there was no clear
victim. They've never seized assets before. And so if the
people who claim a lot of this as a political witch hunt, I
think that Associated Press I found that kind of alarming that
that the Trump case is not being treated like the other cases.
Nonetheless, it is what it is. And so he's got to raise a lot
of money really fast. And can he do it through he truth social,
his very weird, online social media outlet, but on the
markets, suddenly it's weird.
Adam Curry: It's struggling, it's failing. It's no good. But
Reddit is great. With no money.
John C Dvorak: It's actually got positive cash flow. My
understanding? Oh, really?
Adam Curry: Yeah, it is
Unknown: what it is. And so he's got to raise a lot of money
really fast. And Kenny do it through His truth, social, his
very weird online social media outlet is on the markets,
suddenly, it would boost his net worth $3 billion, which is also
troubling because it made in the first nine months of last year
made $3.3 million, and it's valued at 3 billion. So it looks
to me like another form of fundraising disguised as
investment, and that is already crooked. And then you take what
a desperate Donald Trump was likely to do that's crooked,
John C Dvorak: it's troubling and read it and all these the
classics IPOs out of Silicon Valley art.
Adam Curry: I'm glad we're here to set the record straight.
Unknown: So it looks to me like another form of fundraising
disguised as investment, and that is already crooked. And
then you take what a desperate Donald Trump is likely to do, do
what his son in law did go to the Saudis and get some money.
And it's just opens up for a desperate Donald Trump. All
sorts of corrupt possibilities. This
Adam Curry: is new, the desperate Donald. Desperate,
Donald, we haven't heard this one is nice alliteration.
desperate. Yeah, I
John C Dvorak: want to mention that I watched this particular
back and forth and found it unclimbable But okay, but you
can make but okay, go ahead.
Unknown: And I have to disagree. I have to disagree with David.
No, take the properties. If he's if any of us are in that
situation, we would be in serious trouble. And you know,
it would be within the right of the Attorney General to say, you
know, we're going to take your golf club or we're going to take
your we're going to take your tower, and quite honestly, I
would love to see the Ag the New York Attorney General do that.
Because then it would be like the most tangible sign for the
nation, the world and for Donald Trump that you have been held
accountable.
John C Dvorak: I love that. Okay,
Adam Curry: I'd love to take your dollar asshole.
John C Dvorak: This guy is the worst. When he's an editor at
the Washington Post. He should be ashamed of himself.
Adam Curry: I love what he said. You took my tower. You suck my
butt. auto ship. I mean, take my dour. That's what they want.
Man, what a show. What a show. Front row seat once again and
what how many more months do we have with this nonsense?
John C Dvorak: Oh, it's if if Trump wins the presidency, we
have another four years,
Adam Curry: we're gonna have to retire after that that's after
Trump's first or second or whatever Terminal B, we're done.
Exit we have to exit I don't think I can do it anymore.
John C Dvorak: The media intense the media has it was COVID it
was easier with the COVID. And we got more income during COVID
than this analysis and political aeration which is horrible.
COVID
Adam Curry: was better. It was better COVID was better than
this nonsense.
John C Dvorak: Legit break up the scheme of things. I do have
a couple of clips that have not been picked up by any media in
the United States is from Australia. Okay, good. It will
be because it's a great story and I guarantee it will be on
gut felled now boy, because it's such a classic gut felt style
have something to analyze. This is a story about a big sperm
whale in Australia, being tracked by 30 orcas in a pod, as
they call them, orcas are in a pod. And they're these 30 orcas
and one of them was huge. was gonna get this whale and this is
the whale clips. Let's play it clip one.
Unknown: Now a sperm whale off the coast of Western Australia
has used a secret actually a stinky weapon to repel a pot of
walkers. The whale released its massive bales triggering a
tsunami which washed over the unsuspecting orcas. Oh, there we
are marine biologist Jenna taka witness the dramatic defense
mechanism. And wonder how she's coping now and joins us now from
Perth. Good morning. How are you? coping?
Yeah, still processing everything? Definitely.
So it was this? I mean, how unusual was this was this. Let's
describe it as a defense mechanism.
Yeah, so there definitely aren't very many recorded accounts of
it around the world. Yeah, definitely wasn't expecting to
see that kind of thing happen. All right, but
stinky but brutally effective. Right? Yeah,
yeah, it actually did seem to work to sort of ward off a group
of about 30 kilos. So yeah, unusual, but effective method
rice.
So I mean, this is obviously a cause of great excitement for
for people who study these novels. And obviously, you've
mean that the Whole Whale world is talking about it.
Yeah, an extremely rare event to witness but also to be able to
document the way that we could we have some incredible wildlife
photographers on board. And yeah, yeah, just a really
significant thing to have been able to record in the detail
that we did.
John C Dvorak: Yes, now the she is so shy this woman is she's
embarrassed to be talking about this. But
Adam Curry: I mean, it's like we're childish. I mean, there's
15 year olds in us. But these guys like he just keeps going
Pong after Pong after man. But
John C Dvorak: so this it wraps here with no more good puns. But
it's fascinating that the against a blast of poop in the
faces of 30 orcas, they couldn't stand it. But they couldn't
break rank, I guess, because they stay in these pods. So they
just scattered. They just die. We're not putting up with this.
And I'm wondering whether it was just a frightening aspect of
being trapped by these killers. And maybe that's why you pooped
as opposed to doing it on purpose. But here we go to fit
the cycle. pournami
Unknown: last for long. We're just showing our viewers
pictures of it of some whales now, or did it quickly. How
should we say dissipate?
It did dissipate reasonably quickly, but we didn't stick
around for too long. We actually the Orca pretty much moved off
straight after that. And we followed them to try and get
some more clues as to what had sort of gone on there.
Just looking at the size of sperm whales, I'm guessing the
bowels of said sperm whales would be quite huge.
Yes.
And a very, very strong defense mechanism as a result in terms
of the amount of stuff that comes out.
Yeah, yeah, definitely that and a combination of that. Yeah,
they're really intense bonds and the way they grouped and huddled
together and just wouldn't sort of break that formation. So
yeah, it's I mean, fascinating stuff. Jenna takeI in Perth,
thank you so much for getting up very early to talk about it. And
we wish you all the best. Going through just how this happened.
Why this happened? And perhaps it may happen again with other
sperm whales. Yeah,
yeah. Thank you so much. Thank you, Jenna.
Adam Curry: Okay, I am now banning any more Punam Eclipse
forever. This is this that what I mean? Okay. One Eclipse shore
to Putin Nami to Punam Eclipse. All right, I'm gonna get let's
I'm gonna move it into Israel. Gaza, actually
John C Dvorak: gotten clever the day, by the way, no. complaints.
Oh, my goodness. This is not American media at all yet, but
you watch Oh, wow.
Adam Curry: Yes, of course. Because why did we talk about
anything useful? punani. There you go. That's right. Yeah, it's
almost as useless as some of the stuff that they put into this
spending bill. There
Unknown: has been a lot of back and forth around Democrats would
call them like culture war add ins to some of these things
related to whether it's LGBTQ issues or trans issues. How is
that? How has that sorted itself out? I mean, what would you
point to in this package that Americans should be paying
attention to?
Yeah, I think it's I think it's really interesting. I mean, if
you see the statements, girl,
Adam Curry: the tsunami girl now, no different attention
Unknown: to Yeah, I think it's I think it's really interesting. I
mean, if you see the statements, as you mentioned, if you see
statements, both sides are like, this is a democratic when
Republicans are like this, the Republican win, but you know, no
one got, like, everything that they wanted, right. And that's
how these things work. You know, Johnson is coming to terms that
you're not going to get everything in it. But what they
did get is 24% increase in migrant beds while they're
waiting their immigration proceedings or removal from the
country. They were able to get the removal of any flags that
are not you saw us flag, LGBTQ pride flags from US diplomatic
sites, so that was a when you tried flags. Yeah. US diplomatic
sites. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: Second, why would somebody be putting an LGBTQ
whatever it is flag on a on a US Embassy? Where have you
Adam Curry: been? They do that all the time? Oh, yeah. Yeah.
They do it all the time. What are we drinking?
John C Dvorak: Now that you ask?
Adam Curry: Yeah, Phoebe wants the dogs asking Phoebe wants to
know,
John C Dvorak: Lego neatest, brewing hoppy refresher, Berry
lemon flavored.
Adam Curry: Ooh, that sounds good. Phoebe Good girl.
John C Dvorak: Amir does sound good. Sounds like tasted
Adam Curry: Phoebe hoppy. So we had a resolution which was
vetoed by China and Russia for a ceasefire. Foe so for once it's
not us
Unknown: in your reading of the resolution.
It is I found it a little bit ambiguous. What the ceasefire
under this resolution. Go, you know, be called for whether or
not the hostages were at the same time released.
Adam Curry: Like Andrea, this is the this is the other black
woman who will get blamed for everything. She is our
ambassador to the United Nations. Linda Thomas
Greenfield.
Unknown: What I've said to my colleagues here on on in the
Security Council, no ceasefire ever comes about because we call
for a ceasefire. ceasefires happen at the negotiating table
anytime, anywhere in the world ceasefires take place based on
negotiations. And those negotiations are happening right
now. in Doha, where they're still at the table, they're
still working hard. And we're the ones that are there on the
ground really doing the hard work out there. China's not
there. They're not providing any options for finding a solution
to get us there. They're not providing humanitarian
assistance. We're still the largest contributor of
humanitarian assistance, and we have people on the ground
working every day to ensure that assistance get to the people in
need. This resolution was not ambiguous. This resolution was
clear. It call for a ceasefire. We want to see as part of that
all hostages released. We want to see humanitarian assistance
be provided to the suffering Palestinian people. It was that
simple.
Adam Curry: I love it. We provide the weapons and then we
provide the assistance for the people talk. It's great. It's a
perfect system. And oh, yes, again, we're paying for it.
China and Russia. They weren't there in Doha. No They were
making other deals in the region. Yemen's
Unknown: Houthi rebels have told China and Russia that they ships
can pass through the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea safely. The
Houthis have been attacking vessels off the Yemeni Coast
since November, the US and the UK have launched airstrikes on
Houthi targets in retaliation. Several countries have deployed
their naval forces to protect shipping in the trade route.
Earlier this month, three crew members were killed when their
ship was hit in a Houthi strike.
Adam Curry: Well, how about that? So your Chinese ship or
Russian ship? No problem?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, go right through.
Adam Curry: That is from not from us news. By the way. Of
course, first, I
John C Dvorak: saw that story on us. Oh, you
Adam Curry: did? Yeah, it's
John C Dvorak: been played back
Adam Curry: to MSNBC. Let's see, let's we're, we're back to
Israel, let's find out a way to bring in Trump.
Unknown: But I wanted to say something else, especially about
Jewish voters. What he said this week, was not directed at them.
Jewish voters represent a very small, very small percentage of
the American electorate. They vote heavily in favor of
Democrats, and they tend to let live in heavy blue states, they
are not going to swing the election for him. What he said
today, about this week about Jewish voters was directed at
his base is evangelical Christian base, who he also
needs to bring out to vote in November, in order to win. And
that base is both very, very pro Israel, for reasons related to
the Christian religion and what they believe will be the second
coming of Christ in Israel. But they they're also really,
Adam Curry: thanks for letting me know. We were just praying
about that this morning. Let him come to Israel,
Unknown: a strands of anti semitism in that base. And what
he said this week basically said, you can't be Jewish. And
you can't be pro Israel. If you don't vote for me. That's both
anti semitic. And it very much signals to his base that he is
all in on Israel. And that's a win win for him.
Adam Curry: Oh, goodness, gracious.
John C Dvorak: Wow, what a roundabout way. A win win. Like
it to me,
Adam Curry: I know. So then we go to probably the best. I mean,
you know, Joe Scarborough for morning, Joe, man, when those
guys get read in when they're told, like, Okay, we're going to
pivot, we're going to do this, we're going to change or moving
away from that. They really go all in. And so to help out
Biden, it's like, Bibi Netanyahu is the worst thing ever. He's
worse than upu, Nami, Bibi Netanyahu is the problem in the
world right now, there
Unknown: is just an extraordinary a change of
attitudes among Americans under 40 extraordinary. And it is anti
Israel. And though it's not just younger Americans on college
campuses, it's just about it is a lot of Americans under 40.
And, and my children have been very, very concerned for their
Jewish friends. They've been very, very concerned at how
intense it has become. So I'm concerned about that. I'm also
very concerned about civilians in Gaza. You we this idea that
you want the United States and the world community to do
something, just stop an oncoming famine somehow makes you hate
Israel. There are two words I'd like to say that I can't say on
the air. But nobody has been more and we had Jonathan
Greenblatt come up, he'll tell you and Jonathan may disagree
with me on this issue. We'll see. But one thing you won't
disagree with me on is that yes. I've been fighting against anti
semitism my entire life since World War Two, and my entire
career in Congress and on television crap. I've been
really outspoken about it. And I'm most at least dying to
John C Dvorak: know this. Well, wait, wait, wait. He's now that
I've spoken and I
Adam Curry: see now. Now they plug him in, turn up his spin
cycle to 20.
Unknown: I'm concerned about this. I'm concerned about
Benjamin Netanyahu. I'm concerned about the fact that he
knew where Hamas was getting its money in 2018. He refused to cut
it off. I'm concerned that he sent his government to Doha
three weeks before the attacks and said give Hamas more money.
I'm concerned that he continued to prop Hamas up. I'm continuing
constructive. Talking Points are great. Starting with Benjamin
Netanyahu, whose government had Hamas ISIS terrorists plans a
year before.
Adam Curry: This is like Bibi Netanyahu is he's the worst
thing Max
Unknown: and they did nothing. I'm concerned that Benjamin
Netanyahu, after the attacks did nothing for 678 10 hours, 100
hours for that. I've never seen anything like it. It shattered
my belief and everything I ever thought about, about Israel's
ability to defend itself. And by the way, it's not that we've
been wrong all these years. It's it Benjamin Netanyahu, was in
charge. And he led Israel to that point, and I'm very
concerned that what he continues to do whatever he can do to stay
in power, because the second he's out of power, he's got
three indictments, you might go to gel.
Adam Curry: Petroleum had a good point, what he really wants to
say Bibi Netanyahu is trumping a yarmulke. So
Unknown: it's a very simple equation. As long as the war
continues, Benjamin Netanyahu doesn't have to worry about
going to jail for a second the war ends, Frenchmen that Yahoo
has to worry about going gel, are we really Israel's future,
we go to this man and say if those of us who love Israel,
those of us who were taught in Sunday school and we were five
years old, that Jews are God's chosen people and Israel is
where they need to be to be protected, because 6 million
were slaughtered in the Holocaust.
Adam Curry: How low cost?
Unknown: Are we not allowed to question Benjamin Netanyahu
whose motives because if not, that's pretty sick, and it's not
in Israel's best interest. Oh,
John C Dvorak: Joe, like a kid went to Sunday school at the age
of five.
Adam Curry: He did apparently, there's a 32nd final clip
Unknown: here. But Nick, it is so it is so offensive offensive
Adam Curry: for
Unknown: Donald Trump to say, oh, here we go. You can't be a
good Jew. Oh my vote for Democrats.
Adam Curry: It's not like saying if you don't vote for me, you're
not black people
Unknown: to say you can't be a Zionist and a supporter of
Israel and a supporter of Jews and a fighter and defender of
Jews and their right to exist where they want to exist.
John C Dvorak: Guy sounds like unless you hate
Adam Curry: that yeah, who does?
John C Dvorak: Engage full of crap. I got two clips about
this. Oh, my God, not about that idiot. It's
Adam Curry: tiring. It's so tired. Go
John C Dvorak: to France 24 and go to aid to Gaza, where we have
our UN guy in Egypt make giving a big speech time
Unknown: to truly flood Gaza with life saving aid UN chief
Antonio Guterres appeals for a ceasefire calling the starvation
inside the Enclave. A moral outrage guitarist spoke from the
Egyptian side of the rougher border crossing with Gaza. He
made his way to the crossing a day after the UN Security
Council failed to reach a consensus 1000s of aid trucks
are waiting in Egypt and North Sinai province to cross over to
those living in desperately poor conditions. Nicholas Rushworth
tells us more.
The UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres on a visit to the
Egyptian side of the Rafah crossing, said it was time to
truly flood Gaza with life saving aid. He renewed a call
for an immediate ceasefire, and said he wanted an ironclad
commitment by Israel for total access for humanitarian goods to
Gaza crossing,
the long line of blocked red relief trucks on one side of the
gates, the long shadow of starvation on the others. That
is more than tragic. It is a moral outrage.
The
UN's World Food Programme says Gazans are already starving to
death with famine projected by May in the northern part of the
Gaza Strip. There
are a number of obstacles that the Israeli authorities have
maintained that make it very difficult to reach the level of
delivery that is necessary. The problem is not all many trucks
enter. The problem is how can we distribute,
Adam Curry: distribute, distribute, get your boots out
of my bag.
John C Dvorak: There's a thing that keeps cropping up in all
these international reports which is they're starving to
death as we speak. Yes, but a famine will begin in May.
Adam Curry: Oh, is that when it says scheduled?
John C Dvorak: For this is what must be because there's like
they're starving to death right now. Yes, but a famine is
expected begin in May. A what was there's a timetable for this
sort of thing? And now what is what's going on now? That's not
a famine.
Adam Curry: It's on the media calendar. Let's see, what do we
have? And maybe, guys, for me, we've got Famine, Famine
scheduled. Okay. All right. That's good. We got famine from
May. And
John C Dvorak: then the other thing, of course, to continue
with the anti Netanyahu up, we have the Tel Aviv protests which
I have a clip of kicked
Unknown: them out of hell, banners and Israeli flags poured
out on the streets of Tel Aviv as 1000s of people gathered the
Saturday demanding an immediate deal to release some 130 as
reduced hostages in Gaza, as well as new elections in the
country. demonstrators are criticizing the way Prime
Minister Madami Netanyahu is handling the war against Hamas,
and demands the government to take responsibility that's on
Yahoo has vowed to go ahead with the plan offensive in Rockford
dubbed a mistake by the US Secretary of State and simply
Kim.
Adam Curry: Oh, they're all just playing a big big theater.
That's all set. No one. Please. No one. No one buys this
anymore. So you know, the blanket us was so much pournami
that we did we don't even know what to care. No, you. Yeah, no,
I know. I know as
John C Dvorak: a show title.
Adam Curry: I have a Shure Punam. And then let's put some
cheesecake on the art. That's great. I have a super card from
Mayor Adams of New York.
John C Dvorak: I'm sure I would love to hear it. Everyone
Unknown: knows that. New York City is the app is of America is
the symbol of America is the keys of America is the soul of
America. We are the televi of America. New York City is the
Islamic Bank of America. Of America. We are the Lima of
America. New York City is Miss Mexico City of America. This is
the doubling of America, New York City.
John C Dvorak: Buddy really put a lot of work into that one.
Adam Curry: What do you need to know speech writer?
John C Dvorak: Oh, well, that's probably true.
Adam Curry: So United Airlines is under attack and rightfully
so. I don't know if you receive this but I must have received
five copies of this from something called the United
Council the members of council 150 And it's a very long no and
I put it in the show notes. I'm not I'm not going to read the
whole thing. But um, I'll just start off here. We you're
elected allpa that's Airline Pilots Association
representatives, Philo's our unfortunate responsibility. It
looks like a Chad GPT job actually, to draw attention to
several very concerning items. These issues have thus far been
inadequately addressed. They pertain to the very core nature
of our chosen profession. This is definitely Chachi PT. Simply
put, our safety culture is under attack and enough is enough. We
cannot in good conscience continue to wait for our flight
operations management team to choose safety over anything
else. While their words make for great PR their actions have not
matched those words and have directly led to the unfortunate
circumstance in which we presently find ourselves. The
United next growth plan has seen a staggering 30% growth in just
a few short years. However, that growth has come with strings
attached. It has come hand in hand with an orchestrated
erosion of our safety culture and our professions input into
it. The FAA has similarly witnessed this and recently
stepped in to take substantial action against United Airlines.
Q clip creasing
John C Dvorak: oversight of United Airlines. The decision
follows a series of incidents, including a plane losing an
external panel and another plane losing a tire during takeoff.
United says the FAA will review work processes manuals and
facilities. The agency will then determine if any changes are
needed. The FAA says it is routine for its safety assurance
system to monitor in airlines operations.
Adam Curry: We have lost the ability to approve new line
check pilots issued type ratings and have regulator imposed
restrictions on our ability to operate and grow our airline
this is actually quite bad. Well, you can't do your own
check rides. This is a business very bad. So I think the dude in
a dress might want to reconsider his strategy.
John C Dvorak: Well, actually, a day ago, the United Airlines was
halted by the FAA saying no new planes for you. Yeah, no soup
for you. That's right.
Adam Curry: Where does this leave us? Well, for starters, it
leaves us as pilots under more scrutiny than ever before. We
all need to reinvest in our safety culture and do so with
vigor encourage each other on the flight decks to stop when
rush do your best to limit the scope actions whatever it takes.
How about this? How about not flying on United anymore? This
doesn't sound like a good product or service. I'd
John C Dvorak: like to know where the board of directors is
of the United Airlines to get rid of the CEO is obviously the
CEOs problem. I agree he's the one who sets the stage for all
this stuff that's what you do when you're CEO you don't sit
there's it's not I mean, maybe he spent too much time with the
in the makeup room but I mean, you don't have to spend all your
time concerned about your next dress you wear no.
Adam Curry: It's it's troubling to say the least. troubling.
troubling.
John C Dvorak: All right, yes. I was gonna say the day got a
couple of clips on squatters, which I think is disturbing.
This is an OP of some sort because squatting has been going
on forever. As we pointed out in the last
Adam Curry: show, this is part of the be afraid of this is part
of the political side of immigration. It's like be
afraid, be afraid. Be afraid. Be afraid Trump has to see
John C Dvorak: it. But this was this was targeted American
homeless more than the immigrants. Oh, okay. This is
squatters. Clip one NBC.
Unknown: Do not touch me. Touch me. They're the house guests. No
one invited. You're trespassing. Squatters making themselves
right at home.
out of my house. It's not your house. There
are people who take over mostly vacant properties that aren't

she was preparing to sell and filmed her intense
confrontations with them. I had
squatters I did $40,000 worth of damage stole appliances by at
one point
even threatening her with a tire iron. So you must want me to
take this and break your phone. She says it took more than a
month to get them out.
How did you feel? It is quite frankly one of the most
frustrating, unfair experiences and frightening experiences of
my life. The burden of proof was on me, not the renter's it's
unfair. Oh my god. unfair
because squatters take advantage of laws meant to protect
renters, often leaving homeowners helpless, you
shouldn't be trying to steal my house. This video captured by
New York's Eyewitness News has gone viral. A homeowner trying
to force squatters out is then handcuffed by police and removed
from her own home. No charges were filed.
Adam Curry: Well, the real problem I have with this story
is that she says the renters Why didn't she say squatters? Were
these renters who stopped paying rent and then became squatters.
John C Dvorak: That is unclear. I know I noticed the same thing.
I didn't like it. No. But these laws are to prevent renters from
being unnecessarily evicted. Usually when a property is
changing hands or something else. Is this committed to get
out? Is this
Adam Curry: also a little bit of a holdover from the from the
COVID COVID era?
John C Dvorak: Yeah, baby. Although I think that should be
over by now. Let's play the second half. New York
Unknown: attorney and Margaret co Rosa says squatting cases are
on the rise due to more vacant properties and the high cost of
housing how are they getting away with us if they
pull out a fake lease or they pull out a fake deed? Now it's a

Your
best protection is basically being able to document when
someone comes in
and call police. As soon as you find someone.
Please support this bill. Back in Florida.
Patti is paving the way for change advocating for new laws
to fight squatting. What do you want to say to the squatters
around the country?
The gig is up my hope is that within another year squatting
will be a pandemic that is on the decline. I own this house
hoping
her story empowers others to squash out the squatters Valerie
Castro NBC News
Adam Curry: was also violent. It
John C Dvorak: was a very violent report notch mentioned
very violent
Adam Curry: I don't like it disturbed at all I'm sorry. It's
disturbing me. But it's a state by state thing isn't it?
John C Dvorak: I think so. Yeah. But it's a it's an epidemic in
New York it seems and I guess Florida has always had this
issue. Wild.
Adam Curry: Hey, we had we missed it. We missed it. We
missed it. We missed it.
John C Dvorak: The Earth Hour Yes. We
Adam Curry: missed it again. Every year we miss Earth Hour. I
always I am. I always want to participate and turn off my
studio for an hour
John C Dvorak: to help you do to help
Adam Curry: save the earth. And I have a cool They're
Unknown: finally going dark to raise awareness of conservation
and climate change issues that millions of people around the
world have marked Earth our 2020 for the world's largest
grassroots movement for the environment. From 8:30pm to
9:30pm. local time lights were and will be turned off around
the globe. Nick Rushworth tells us more
the Eiffel Tower in Paris dimmed. For Earth our various
landmarks worldwide also went lighthouse, including in Bangkok
and in Kolkata, as a symbolic commitment to tackling climate
change. During Earth Hour, individuals and businesses are
encouraged to turn off non essential lights for one hour
from 8:30pm to 9:30pm. local time, climate activists gathered
in Nicosia in Cyprus to express their concern about the climate
emergency that
they left Erica Haruna Akira Manos Vinod Mehta for the last
12 years, we've turned off the lights on the last Saturday in
March to send a message that in one symbolic hour, we can make a
real difference to the environment in society for the
benefit of people.
It domain in my opinion, just the kind of messages that we
need to take climate measures to reduce pollution to achieve the
goals that Cyprus and the EU have set for the fight against
climate change.
The World Wildlife Fund says giving one hour for the earth
can help bring our world back to life.
Adam Curry: That's funny. Bring it back to life. The world is
bad. I was
John C Dvorak: I was I got that clip before Earth Hour. And I
went outside to see what would happen at 830. In the San
Francisco Bay area.
Adam Curry: Yeah, the lib tard area of California.
John C Dvorak: Nothing? No, of
Adam Curry: course not. Who remembers the last Saturday in
March? What's the second?
John C Dvorak: Okay, I have a five second clip that says
suggestions. And I don't remember what this is.
Unknown: It says that that's how it can be spent on a range of
activities from giving a donation to giving a donation.
John C Dvorak: Oh, giving a donation Yes, giving a donation
to the no agenda show? Well,
Adam Curry: before we go to that, I'm glad you brought the
Earth Hour clip because there is a very good documentary on
YouTube, which it makes it even better because it's just out
there. It's called Climate the movie. It's about Yeah, it's
about an hour and 15 minutes long, they watched the whole
thing. There is for the for the Long time, no agenda producers,
nothing new. Some familiar familiar faces, like the one of
the co founder of Greenpeace. And but what is good is it lays
out in in some good detail, but very accessible to all and they
have like Harvard guys, Yale Nobel Prize winners, all these
people go on, this is a hoax. It's not true. They're jacking
the charts, the jack in the temperature there lying that you
know that look at the geological studies, you know, they were
actually in a in an ice age, and it is by around 2030, it's going
to start getting cooler, which of course, shows you why they're
so crazy about getting it done now. And they all they all have
these intellectual scientists all laugh about the idea that
we're going to die because it's two degrees warmer. Whereas you
know, the temperature varies five up or five down the median
is around one in variance. But what they do hammer home is that
this is it's about control. And and I'm just gonna have to keep
hammering on this because it's not just about what I like what
they all say universally as well. If it's a global problem,
you need a global government to take care of it. And that and we
haven't quite gotten there, but we're getting very close and
there's so much money involved, that there's not going to stop
and it is all about control such as Biden's EPA. Well, it's our
EPA has just rolled out USA auto mandates forcing EVs to be two
thirds of all passenger vehicles. Two thirds two thirds
John C Dvorak: will be made by China's BYD and Neo and I owe
Mexico and they'll flood our country with a minute take out
all of our Evie oh yeah
Adam Curry: man. And guess who's the biggest investor in this
scam. Black Rock
John C Dvorak: the Blackstone annonce
Adam Curry: Black Rock is what I have. That's someone's bumping
something on your side. It's gonna go
John C Dvorak: with it right now trying to get it to duplicate
and as
Adam Curry: you succeeded and then here's a here's an example
of how this is going to end sir gene Center. To me, Tesla
revises late night driving and its effect on safety score. And
I'm like, wow, that's interesting. So, yes, so Tesla,
tracking your driving pay good pay attention. Tesla drivers,
track your driving and they give you a safety score based upon,
you know, a whole bunch of factors like, did you have
shortstops, you know, like, oh, slam on the brakes. Now they've
adjusted it, they've updated their late night driving to be
risk weighted based on driving from 11pm to 4am previously was
10pm to 4am. The impact of late night driving on your safety
score will depend on the proportion of time spent driving
in each hour between 11pm and 4am. Tesla uses eight different
factors to determine a safety score. forward collision
warnings per 1000 non autopilot miles heartbreaking, aggressive
turning unsafe following excessive speed, late night
driving, forced autopilot disengagement and unbuckled
driving. And so I said, Wow, that's really quite creepy. I
guess they're going to be selling this to the insurance
companies who already don't want to insure EVs because, you know,
they tend to burn down houses. And Jean informs me Oh, no,
they're going to launch their own insurance. This is your
future. We need to stop this insanity. That I
John C Dvorak: like aggressive turning.
Adam Curry: I'm with you on that. Fun. It's great.
Doughnuts, baby doughnuts. But this is all of this. This is
just friendly. Little Elon, just Elon, he's a good guy. No, he's
not a good guy. He is a shill for this kind of stuff. It's not
good. We cannot let government entities track all of our so
called Climate based activities. In this case, it's still a
climate based car based on some phony baloney calculation which
we've we've been through. I don't remember exactly. You had
that I think at one point. How they calculate the actual
pollution made by these EVs. What was that? Again? It was
like some something that they they snuck
John C Dvorak: which is based on how much waste of energy and
resources to make the batteries in the car. And the whole thing
is, it's complicated.
Adam Curry: Right? But it's also it's complicated for a reason,
because none of its true. None of its true. And
John C Dvorak: no, the fact that it costs a lot of money to make
an Eevee is not untrue.
Adam Curry: Anyway, we've got us I had a rancher out here
yesterday from Colorado, Colorado craft beef. And it's
just it's unbelievable what's happening. These days, we're
losing our food supply. And we really are you you've got to
start taking a look at where are you? Where are you going to get
your food from? Because it's not going to be from the it's not
going to be beef. In the feed
John C Dvorak: one of our producers who's also a beef guy
went up to the Panhandle and he said he had some land up there.
He says that big fire that took place in Texas wiped out a bunch
of beef producers. He says those people are not coming back.
Adam Curry: That was me on the last show. I told you that Texas
slim, Texas slim. I have I had the note to Texas slim told me
on the phone. I didn't have a note. You know, I
John C Dvorak: read a note from some guy. Hold on. Now that
Adam Curry: wouldn't surprise me. Now because they can't
finance they're hurt anymore.
John C Dvorak: Okay, she was what's the Yeah, the banks are
of no help. No,
Adam Curry: I mean, interest rates are of no help. So we have
to keep hammering because it's just become a joke, a punch
line, or whatever. Is just, yes, climate change that one believes
in it, but they're not stopping. They're not stopping. They're
going to go until they have total control of us. That's what
all those Ulez zones were in the UK. And God bless the Brits, you
know, the Londoners know we're taking that down, we're ripping
that stuff down. We're not gonna let you force us into some kind
of phony baloney climate change zone where we can't drive or can
only drive three miles an hour. It's total control and yet we
have to resist you must resist me much. Much this ya know, you
say that I still have some fight left in me. I still have some
fight left. And wow, this is something that just came across
the wire. In
the vape wars at Science Direct comes out with an interesting
article. And so what is vaping? vaping is in essence a nicotine
delivery system with a with a fun little taste and we were
told all no oh no we these kids are getting hooked on nicotine
is no good. The flavors they're being marketed to five year olds
five year old kids want to have strawberry they're gonna vape
they vape Well, I didn't know this. Nicotine inhibits the
amygdala, the VTA to what is VTA. What is VTA? Ven ventral
tegmental area to the amygdala dopamine pathway to promote
anxiety. So when you vape you have less anxiety.
John C Dvorak: So this would be deaths why people smoke?
Adam Curry: Right? Well, we already got rid of that but they
wanted the kids to stop vaping because it was a cheap nicotine
delivery system. And they're not getting all jacked. We need them
spun up and spun out and angry and hope to voting
John C Dvorak: Democrat.
Adam Curry: Exactly. With that I'd like to thank you for your
currency in the morning to you the man who put the sea in the
fresh corporate say hello to my friend on the other end the One
Only Mr. Johnson
John C Dvorak: in the morning to you Mr. Adam curry also in the
morning your chips to see boots on the ground feed near subs in
the water. And the names of knights
Adam Curry: in the morning to the trolls and the troll room.
Stick your hands up. They're trolls I mean good nose. Trolls
are up. We're up 40 Trolls we had nowhere more. We had 1994 on
the last. The last show I'd love last Sunday show today. 2064. So
we are actually up 70 Trolls. That's pretty good.
John C Dvorak: That's not bad. Like that number
Adam Curry: 70 Extra trolls. Hello trolls. They are checking
us out at troll room.io where you can listen to this to this
podcast live on Thursdays and Sundays. The good part is about
to come because you know we got extra clips and extra fun stuff
during these donation segments. Including may I say a big
congratulations to Speed Racer Ashlynn speed running with the
no agenda colors on her number 32 F 1600 race race monster she
won this weekend.
John C Dvorak: She's amazing. Yes,
Adam Curry: she actually during qualifying she broke the track
record by half a second and qualifying which unfortunately,
unfortunately, doesn't count as official in the race. She was
only off of the track record by 0.3 seconds. And that's because
the clouds had rolled in which does that slow down your car
clouds?
John C Dvorak: Well, yeah, cuz this is solar powered.
Adam Curry: I'm sure it has something to do with the
temperature of the track or the tires or I think I don't know.
We got a report from her dad. Greg. Good to see no agenda.
People out there were yelling in the morning. He was on the
track, which is fantastic. Love that. The no agenda logo proudly
displayed on the car there which I just loved. I just love that
we have a winning race, mobile
John C Dvorak: race.
Adam Curry: It's a race. It's a race, race. Race mobile
John C Dvorak: and it goes around and around. She is going
Adam Curry: f1 f1 For sure. I mean, and she's perfect for I
love the cowboy hat the whole vibe. She's got Speed Racer
Ashlynn speed, no agenda, and we've been with her from day
one. Ever since the carts. This is true. Yeah, it's true. Yeah.
And we're happy that the car owner let us put our logo, keep
the logo on there because we're not paying but if you'd like
your logo on it and there's an opportunity I'm sure so that's
just one way that you can show some love to the no agenda show
value for value. But do want to mention that the you can join
the trolls at troll room.io Listen Live. There are many ways
to get alerted we always send out a bad signal on on Twitter
and on Mastodon, the fediverse Through activity pub, you can
hear about us there. But if you get them on a podcast that I'm
just saying, this might be a great way to keep podcasting
free and open, because, you know, they're come coming for
you. Were coming for everybody, they are coming for everybody.
But this is still within the independent open source, podcast
realm. And you can listen in listen to the live stream in, in
these modern podcast app, so you can find it, podcasting to.org
or podcast apps.com, if that's easier for you to remember. And
today, I want to promote podcast addict, which has been around
for a long time, podcast addict was already an established app.
And they decided, You know what, we're not going to suck off that
Apple database. We're coming to the free and open guys at
podcasting. 2.0. And when we when we publish the show, any
show that's published on any show that's worth its weight in
gold, of course, which is hundreds of 1000s of shows that
updates within 90 seconds on your on your app, no longer do
you have to wait for 45 minutes an hour, even 15 minutes is
annoying. So go to podcasting two.org To find out more. So
back to value for value, which you know, it's a donation drive
now for for NPR. Man, those guys are annoying how they do it. You
know, they
John C Dvorak: tell me more well, that this is like,
Adam Curry: you know, they sound so smug. The first of all, they
have ads, they have ads, they run ads, and then they tell you,
Well, you've got to support us, but you're running ads. I don't
get it. You're running out well, but you know, you're really the
primary source of the funding. Well, how
John C Dvorak: about what the ad mark is unlikely to? I
Adam Curry: don't believe it for a second. They just want you to
give them 50 bucks to get a dump tote bag or a mug? No, no. And
then how good is it? Now people don't and they want you to
subscribe, we want a subscription. This is this is
the biggest mistake that they've made. And the streaming guys,
they're they're falling apart right now. In fact, you know,
actually had the Wall Street Journal did that a whole bid on
this? And you know, so we, we consider this to be valued for
value? Actually, we pioneered it. The whole idea is we give
you all the value, we've got everything we have we're no
we're not holding back, there's no special little bonus content
or premium premium content that you can get somewhere else. Now
we're getting the whole show. You don't have to send us
anything. Oh, by the way, didn't want
John C Dvorak: it. Most people don't know. That's right.
Adam Curry: That's what's so great about it. But if you
listen to, you know, people who want you to subscribe to
something, or you know, like the stream, or this is falling apart
this whole model, because people can't afford it anymore. Like,
you can't afford to subscribe to your five or 10 favorite
podcasts. What's it gonna be 50 bucks a month, $200 a month for
your premium content. Now we want we want you to send value
when you feel it's appropriate. And when you can afford it. And
and then and then police and what you think is the right
value, which we also we can't determine that. That's not on
us. We don't know how much of that what value what's valuable
to you.
John C Dvorak: But listen to the individual. Yes, yeah. Listen to
this
Adam Curry: Wall Street about the streaming wars.
Unknown: First, I want to talk about a relatively new trend
reported on and that is consumers canceling their
streaming subscriptions. Does that have to do with the price
hikes we've seen introduced by a number of streaming services. So
you
see customers starting to get to a point where their streaming
budget where they're realizing that it's approaching what cable
used to be, or just starting to feel really expensive and meaty.
And so they're saying what do I actually need? What am I
actually spending my time on. And because those streamers have
raised prices, they have kept the simplicity of being able to
easily turn them on and off. A lot more consumers have gotten
savvier about saying, You know what, I'm going to binge this on
Hulu, and then I'm going to turn it off or I'm going to binge
this next season on Netflix. And then I won't need it again for
two months until this next show comes out. So I think a much
savvier consumer has emerged and also with inflation and just the
the rising cost of living households are saying how much
am I actually spending on entertainment? And am I getting
full value out of it?
Adam Curry: Oh, full value. There you go. See? People are
getting smart. They want value. So if you get any value from our
podcast, and maybe you need five shows, maybe you need a month's
worth of shows like oh, you know what? That was valuable to me.
Then you send something back. You can always give us value by
promoting the show by hitting people in the mouth. By
organizing meetups. There's many ways you can contribute
contribute all the time to the group. Remember, you're not
listeners, you're not an audience who were saying hey,
you subscribe to our app. Know, your producers, you're part of
the product. That's the postmodern avenue that we took.
And it's been working okay for 16 years. But yes, it's about
two to 3% who actually support us financially. So consider
that. No tote bag, no mug, nothing. You know, you don't
have to be in anything, just listen to our show is valuable
to us and the back to us. Now before we thank our treasure
donors, we have time and talent in the form of the artists. Now
we believe that this is a very valuable addition to the show.
And we've been doing it almost as long as we've had this show
and be only in the last year or two. Have a couple other
podcasts are doing it. Why Why? Because they don't have these
producers that we do this no way because they haven't set it up
this like you're stupid listener. Listen to my ads. I'm
gonna interrupt my ads. Yeah, click on the link, smash the
subscribe button. Oh, no, no, no. So we want to thank the
artists who we chose art from on the previous episode. That was
episode 1644. And that was I think we titled that one shock
opera shock opera. And again, it was the art that made us laugh
right off the bat. Taunton Neil comes flying back in with a
total winner, a red hat which we would say would be like a maga
hat with bloodbath 24 logo on it. It was just there was
nothing that even came close I don't think it was so good. Well
John C Dvorak: you did We did like to canned a lobster that
they can buy correct directory that was funny.
Adam Curry: And we went back and forth and we said well, we both
laugh the minute we saw that hat and that's that's always kind of
a that's usually the one we just go for. Now. There was a lot of
bloodbath type stuff. Also I'd like to Taunton yielded some
other ones she did the lobster from the tree with a cicada.
Yes, correct. A record cicada. The lobster of the tree with the
can was very good. Did you use it for the newsletter? You said
you were gonna use it for the newsletter?
John C Dvorak: I did? No, I think I use it didn't was a
cheesecake. I can't remember.
Adam Curry: Don't be sad at all and other Correct Correct
correct records coming in again with some stuff. Oh my God, tell
him and also remember that most of these images are used by the
clip custodian, I'm sorry, by Dred Scott, who, who does our
chapters. I said this because clip custodian is doing art now
as well. Dred Scott puts together chapters that when you
use one of those modern podcast apps, you'll see the artwork
change when we change a topic, and usually it's art that goes
with the topic it's really it's worth it because that way you
can it's funny it's an addition to the show, or you can go to no
agenda art generator.com You can refresh live during the show.
See what the artists are uploading as we're speaking
because we choose the art right after the show. But you can
always submit something yourself if you want if you want to be a
part of the of the time and the talent we love it. I'm gonna
John C Dvorak: provided another reminder to the artists that if
their art is anyway gruesome. And I would consider a cicada a
gruesome thing to put as the artwork in is kind of repulsive.
It won't get picked.
Adam Curry: Why is this the kind of gruesome we'll
John C Dvorak: look at that tree a Tree Lobsters the one from
Scaramanga with a bunch of gruesome bugs coming out of a
what looks like a french fry bag no
Adam Curry: Wow well gee
John C Dvorak: you know about this rule yeah but
Adam Curry: I but but now we're into taste I mean, I think the
Tree Lobsters is not that gruesome Yeah, I think the the
bloodbath with the Trump in it that's kind of gruesome
John C Dvorak: shift but that didn't get picked either did it?
No, it wasn't
Adam Curry: even discussed. Thank you again Thompson here we
really appreciate everything you now we go over to the treasure

problem is for the last couple of weeks I just at the end of
the show. I know how to fix it but then I after the show's over

banging the mic, though, let

Maggie, you've probably heard about firefighters rescuing a
cat stuck in a tree but probably not a dog stuck in a wheel. This
poor dog got her head stuck in a tire rim yesterday while she was
playing the owners the delay no family did the only thing that
they could think of and called the fire department. Daisy, the
11 month old yellow lab gets in some trouble from time to time
yesterday. The pup was at home in Franklinville when she got
her head wedged into the rim of a tire. Eventually they called
the fire department. The Franklinville Volunteer Fire
Company responded
we tried using some time just detergent. We tried some
vegetable oil we tried to even slip in some plastic around her
neck. But at that time Daisy was kind of gasping for air eyes
were red. We knew we kind of had to move fast knowing
time was short Lieutenant Brandon Volpe. On his plasma
cutter A torch that's used to cut steel might do the trick now

there laughing glad that Daisy is okay even
after resolves you guys ever done anything like this? And
they're like,
nope. Poor dog and Daisy was so nice. We got to meet her today.
Now Daisy is doing just fine. Besides a few scratches on her
neck or owner says he'll be making sure that the yard is
more dog proofed so she doesn't get her head stuck anywhere
else. Reporting live in Franklin Township, New Jersey, Trish

I'm concerned about Benjamin Netanyahu, the fact that he knew
where Hamas was getting his money in 2018. He refused to cut
it off. I'm concerned that he continued to prop them us up.
I'm concerned that Benjamin Netanyahu had a losses
terrorists plants a year before the terrorist attacks and they
did nothing. After the attacks did not think for 678 10 hours,
they will ill prepared that I've never seen anything like it. Are
we really going to tie Israel's future up to this man? And
second for those of us who love Israel? Those of us who were
taught in Sunday school when we were five years old Jews are
God's chosen people because 6 million were slaughtered in the
Holocaust. Are we not allowed to question Benjamin Netanyahu
whose motives because if not, that's pretty sick and it's not
in Israel's best interest.
