John C Dvorak: Everybody's bitching about the chicken. Adam
curry, John C Devorah
Adam Curry: 2024 This your award winning get my nation media
assassination episode 1675 This
Unknown: is no agenda, scrutinizing
Adam Curry: the SC O and broadcasting live from the heart
of the country here and FEMA Region number six in the
morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry
John C Dvorak: from Northern Silicon Valley where the July 4
fog rolled in right on time ruining everything. I'm John C.
Dvorak.
Unknown: Buzzkill.
Adam Curry: You've got to be kidding me. It happened again.
John C Dvorak: Not only that. We are we all did dinner on the on
the Fourth of July here this Friday. And we're looking out
and JC was commenting. Well, I guess there's not going to be
any. Any fog, finally.
Adam Curry: Oh, he jinxed it. He jinxed it. It because it
John C Dvorak: was hot the day before and today and it was hot
on the fourth. And then around seven o'clock. A huge fog rolled
in. But the irony is because San Francisco do rather have people
peeing on each other in public. Yes, they didn't even have a
fourth of July celebration to get ruined. What do you mean?
There were no fireworks? What? And Berkeley didn't have
fireworks either. What's this the unpatriotic Cisco Bay Area?
Fireworks? That's unreal. Richmond on the third as an
American.
Adam Curry: Well, hold on a second. Is there an explanation
for this?
John C Dvorak: I didn't even know it's not going to happen. I
just Well, that happens. But I'll tell you this. It sounds
like a warzone. Know where to Richmond and Oakland going off
yo did it just individuals?
Adam Curry: Well, I'll tell you out here. We had maybe two like
M ad type blasts go off before 10 o'clock. And that was it. I
had the dog know her thunder shirt. I had a dope drill ready
to go. She that she raised her head like whatever. And she's
normally very nervous for this. Nothing. I've talked to a
surgeon and Austin same thing. I got text message I got emails
because we talked about it. Almost no pre or post fireworks.
It has been a very quiet year, which is clear that that to me
is a massive economic indicator.
John C Dvorak: But you already said to me in the last show that
there are fireworks stands all the way from Austin to
Fredericksburg. Yep, left and right every which way so people
would have been buying fireworks and it's legal. Yep. Unlike
around here or it's not well the
Adam Curry: good news is that sir Jean used to consult for a
couple of these companies because that those are like $5
million your businesses. These guys clean up on this stuff. So
he was gonna call around for me he hasn't gotten back to me yet.
He was going to call around and see if they took a total bath or
what happened. But yes to 90 between Austin and
Fredericksburg is just there must be nine firework stands.
You know, they're like these big like containers. Right? And
they're there year round you can buy you know, not all year
round. I don't think but you can, you know, there's obvious
times when they're open but it was just nothing. It was It was
unbelievable. We watched the DC fireworks on TV it was you know,
that's pathetic. And then the New York fireworks there's
nothing else there was nothing here. I mean, I'm sure that we
didn't go out of course because of Phoebe. But I didn't hear
anything that was going on. Usually they have it Lady Bird
Lake. So I'm sure they had fireworks but no one had any
stuff going on. I mean, we're we're pretty close to town
nothing. And even the day after us these people shoot and stuff
remnants stuff off none of it's no, no, no, this is I think this
is a along with your rule of thumb, which is of course the
sex workers. They get better looking and cheaper. I don't
know if they get cheaper. They get better. The economy gets
worse as the economy gets worse. I think this is a new one. But I
have not yet seen this. And I think people were just like,
Nah, I'm not going to blow my money up in the air. And I got a
lot of confirmation from around the country. I know obviously.
They can't get anything from anywhere else because it's
unique to the US but it was it was stunning. And then to hear
that. There would no not even they didn't even have a fourth
of July in San Francisco. That's amazing. Amazing.
John C Dvorak: Well, Berkeley canceled their Fourth of July
they use the COVID in 2019. They use COVID COVID. As an excuse to
end their fireworks. They used to have a pretty good fireworks
display off the pier right into the bay near Emeryville and they
ended it then and then they haven't returned because, you
know, it's like all the money we saved. And Sam is the only one
around here. I mean, there's some I think Pleasanton has one
at the county fair. And there's some other ones here and there.
But there will only one nearby is in Richmond. And they do it
on the third wisely because of that Fourth of July fog, which
rolled in on the Fourth of July, right on time. And so they gave
a pretty good show, but this year was kind of it was
different because they didn't have the, like, was commenting
on this in the last show. They didn't have the hearts. They
didn't have the smiley faces and they didn't have my favorite
firework piece, which is a cube, which you've ever seen. Yeah,
you
Adam Curry: mentioned this, the kids are
John C Dvorak: really nice, like you look at and go, Wow, that's
a cube.
Adam Curry: I think people these days are much more enamored by
the drone shows.
John C Dvorak: The drone shows are terrible. Oh,
Adam Curry: I thought drone shows were pretty cool when they
do it. Right. But
John C Dvorak: yeah, but it's just there's no explosions.
Adam Curry: I agree. I agree. This country was birthed in the
middle of explosions. We need to celebrate it with explosions.
What is going on
John C Dvorak: now? Did you hear about the drone show that went
arrive? Because up in Seattle, they've Seattle used to have
some of the most advanced of fireworks displays off the
needle every year because they had this very famous Japanese
fireworks designer who would do them every year. And there was
fireworks and stuff like you've never seen before. And that guy
who retired and he stopped doing it a couple of years ago and
then went to drones. And this year because I mean, he claims
this because the solar flares, they lost their GPS and 40 of
them or 50 of them went into dream.
Adam Curry: I shouldn't laugh, but come on. That's pretty
funny.
John C Dvorak: I thought that's funny, too, because you can
imagine a big drone show. And they lose their GPS, because I
guess they're all you know, they're computerized. But they
need GPS. Oh, yeah, of course they do. Say to all of a sudden
lose GPS and all come flying into the crowds. Can you imagine
that? No. Oh, no.
Adam Curry: Well, there was an interesting moment during this
Fourth of July celebration at the White House event with not
one but two kind of gaffes. I would say one from the
President, one from the Vice President have a listen.
Unknown: Before the July, everyone Happy Independence Day.
And today as we celebrate freedom, as we celebrate the
promise of America, we also celebrate and express our
gratitude to our servicemembers, to our veterans to our military
families. And we give thanks to our Commander in Chief the the
President of the United States.
Adam Curry: Did she almost say the vice president? I kind of
heard that. Baby Now listen, Commander
Unknown: in Chief, the Vice President.
Oh, oh,
Adam Curry: Happy Independence Day. Well, at least he got the
Independence Day Out. That's what I wanted to say. I want you
to throw a freedom out that would if we could have used the
good freedom. Very, very bizarre. Our president our poor
president is not doing so well.
John C Dvorak: So what was the you have the other Gaff? No,
that
Adam Curry: was that was too that was her so that was him
going in going hohoho Mary I mean that we didn't.
John C Dvorak: Well, Merry Christmas. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Oh, Happy Independence Day. Okay. I see
you have the clips. So I will get us going with a little intro
background or 30 seconds just to get us all pumped
Unknown: this Week with George Stephanopoulos starts right now.
standing firm.
I'm staying in the race. DONALD TRUMP, President Biden fights to
save his candidacy by just having a bad night. I don't know
why. pressure
mounts for him to step aside.
qualified to be president over women's race. Can
he reassure voters? Would you be willing to have the independent
medical evaluation quell the panic in his own party? Do you
really believe you're not behind right now? Oh,
Adam Curry: man, what a Hootenanny Of course. We both
watched it. John, what did you think?
John C Dvorak: It was a whole 22 minutes.
Adam Curry: Yeah, it was it was the extended remix.
John C Dvorak: Well, there was a I have a I have three clips. I
have the the opening salvo which ended with Assange.
Stephanopoulos was was obviously just reading from from an anti
Biden script provided to him by the Council on Foreign
Relations. Anyone who read the last newsletter knows my thesis
on this and you're not disagreeing with him?
Adam Curry: No, no, I in fact, I only have clip to back you up
later, obviously.
John C Dvorak: It's because once you dawns on you,
Adam Curry: hello, the only person who is not on the Council
on Foreign Relations who's out there is Axelrod, who was of
course, Obama's campaign designer and mastermind and
manager the first time around. Axelrod, not, he shouldn't be a
CFR member, I feel but he's more the. He's more of the Chicago
mob guy. And he's everywhere. He's everywhere right now.
John C Dvorak: He's probably one of those guys who wouldn't be a
member. There's people that just won't do it. Yeah. Because you
know that when you become a member, they take into a
backroom and juice you up with stuff and brainwash, and then
give you an electric shock. Yeah.
Adam Curry: And then, and then take that, and then take a
picture.
John C Dvorak: Yes, it was something in your mind. Exactly.
So let's start with this is the killer. When is the right at the
beginning? And I thought this was was interesting, because
this was played by a lot of people and nobody picked up on
the obvious question.
Unknown: Is this a bad episode? With a sign of a more serious
condition?
is a bad episode? No, indicates very serious condition. I was
exhausted. I didn't listen to my instincts. In terms of parents,
bad nights.
You know, you say you were exhausted. And I know you've
said that before as well. But you came and you did have a
tough month. But you came home from Europe about 11 or 12 days
before the debate spent six days in Camp David, why wasn't that
enough? Rest Time enough recovery time?
Because I was sick. I was feeling terrible. Matter of
fact, the docs with me, I asked him they did a COVID test. We
were trying to figure out what's wrong. You did a test to see
whether or not I had some infection. No virus. I didn't
just have a really bad cold.
Did you ever watch the debate afterwards?
I don't think I did.
Adam Curry: But before we get into the content of that, what
in the world is going on with the ABC audio engineers? What is
happening? I mean, this must be purposeful. This, this was so
horrible. It made Biden sound even weaker than he already is
in his speech. And the room noise, there was no reason for
this.
John C Dvorak: Well, that's a good point.
Adam Curry: It says he was like that guy that used to put them
in a bucket. Remember that guy?
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Yeah, they used to put a bucket in the
corner. Throw the mic in there. Yeah. To know, it's a trick.
It's a technique.
Adam Curry: And now that, you know, more people are noticing
this in the audio field. And they're saying things like, even
during the debate, his audio was weirdly processed. I don't know
if you have a bit at one point, Biden leans forward, and you go
like, and he's saying, you know, I'm, I'm doing all this in the
middle of the wars and but his that his audio was like, it was
really something some harmonic, it was very odd. Disturbingly
bad. For a professional organ. I mean, dude, does show number
three sounded better. In 2007. We were doing it through Skype.
I mean, it's crazy how bad it was, it was just really bad. But
John C Dvorak: what the point I was going to make with that clip
was this was the very end of the clip were Stephanopoulos doesn't
follow up. The I saw a fox play this clip, I saw everybody plays
clip and nobody said anything about it, which surprises me,
which is that the Andy's asked if he saw the debate. And you
can play that at the very end again.
Adam Curry: Oops, sorry. Yeah, sorry. I don't think I saw it
really bad cold.
Unknown: Did you ever watch the debate afterwards?
I don't think I did. No,
John C Dvorak: I don't think so. The question, What do you mean,
you don't think you did? He doesn't know if you watch the
debate. After he did the debate. Now, I know a lot of people
don't like watching themselves. There's a lot of actors will
never watch their own movies. There's people that do that. He
could say that I you know, I don't like watching myself. You
could you know, but he didn't say that. He says, I don't know.
I don't know if I saw it again. I don't remember that. That was
very disconcerning. And that brings me to a note. After you
play the next clip. I'm gonna read the note from a
neurologist, who I think has got the right determination here
that's coming up. And I think it's confirmed by this next clip
is a very short clip. And this is the this is the just a
shouting clip.
Unknown: Yes, okay. I was having a bad night when I realized
that. Even when I was answering a question, even when I turned
his mic off, he was still shouting. And I loved it
distract me.
John C Dvorak: At this point, we know he didn't watch the debate,
you know,
Adam Curry: and he wasn't even there. Big
John C Dvorak: because if he had watched the debate, he'd know
that it was most 90% That time was a two shot. It wasn't a two
shot but as a double box. Yes. So they had Trump in a box and
him in a box. So you saw Trump the whole time. And you never
once saw him shouting over with a dead mic. No, I cannot. But I
can remember shouting at all, but he wasn't shouting with the
dead might, which makes me think that makes it and I feel bad
about some of this. It makes me think that Biden is having
hallucinations. Which brings me to this note from Yes, I
Adam Curry: put this in the show notes. This is good. This,
John C Dvorak: this says do not use my name. I'm anonymous. He's
our new anonymous neurologist. The symptoms probably started
when vite Biden was VP. He's talking about these
manifestations and manifest as frequent gaffes. And, you know,
I'm reading this note and then I also have a note for I have a
little rundown from the Mayo Clinic on this phenomenon. And
it now it makes me feel bad about art drunk or not drunk.
Oh,
Adam Curry: okay. Oh, wow. Now we have to feel bad about it. We
are swear
John C Dvorak: you're the one that kept saying this elder
abuse. We shouldn't be doing this.
Adam Curry: Yeah. And then you made me give that up. You said I
don't care he deserves he deserves
John C Dvorak: this exam. You're right. You're absolutely right.
I bitched about you complaining and then you just relented and
we continued it. But now I feel now I feel bad. What can I say?
All right, okay,
Adam Curry: you're a match.
John C Dvorak: I don't.
Adam Curry: What can I say you're
John C Dvorak: a man just symptoms probably started
inviting Biden was VP and manifests his frequent gaffes.
This resulted in episodes of MIS remembering and fabricating
stories from his past. This was reminiscent of President Reagan
when he was accused of confusing movie roles with reality. And it
predated his announcement that he had developed Alzheimer's
Adam Curry: and let's let's please remember that every
psychologist was out there analyzing Trump as being insane,
you know, narcissistic personality disorder, all kinds
of things they did.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, and you continue to do so. Yeah, where's
that here? Over time, Biden's episode occurred more
frequently, outbursts of anger and irritability emerged, and
the conditions seem to interfere with his judgment and self
control. Over the last two years, the signs of a
Parkinsonian syndrome Declining Balance stiffness showing
slowing down soft voice mumbling and difficult to understand
speech became apparent no tremor has been noted. This is typical
presentation of diffuse Lewy Body disease, D L B. And it
would be less likely be consistent with its its it less
likely be consistent with Parkinson's DLB is worse, as the
cognitive and phys psychiatric symptoms are more severe, and
there is no treatment and the disease tends to progress more
quickly. And this would Robin Williams died of yes,
Adam Curry: we also put a video in the show notes of his widow
from 2020 to doing a TED talk about this. That's videos quite
an I've watched his only 10 minutes was quite interesting.
That
John C Dvorak: video is a cry is from 2022. And it cropped up I
believe it was planted to cry it was cry. It was made to crop up
this is starting to be introduced i I'm convinced by
the again the CFR out to get by and they have to get rid of him
because this is becoming ridiculous. And so I went to the
I send you another one of which will be in the show notes which
is Lewy body dementia symptoms and causes Yes, from the Mayo
Clinic. And one of the things that's in there is visual
hallucinations, which Robin had issues with. And these are
frightening hallucinations. And if you remember, which is why I
think he said that he imagined but he's he's so Trump still
shouting.
Adam Curry: Oh, okay. Yes, yes. If he has that diagnosis if that
is true, and there's a lot of evidence that points towards it
this what is it called Louis?
John C Dvorak: Le wy, body bluee Lewy bodies a little is a
protein it gets stuck I guess in the brain,
Adam Curry: which means it because of course Parkinson's is
typically equated to the trembling, tremors shaking. But
that obviously is not all of the story.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, he's not he doesn't have he doesn't show any
tremors. So but but this idea it harkens back to about I think it
was three years ago. The first time Um, that we saw the Easter
Egg Roll in Washington DC where they introduced that giant
bunny.
Adam Curry: Oh, right. And the bunny was his handler.
John C Dvorak: And, and at one time, Biden turned around and
saw the bunny. And freaked out as if it was an illusion nation.
Remember this? Yes,
Adam Curry: yes. Oh, man, boy, hey, you need to come to the
courage of war i Consulting Group for all your psychological
problems, we can help. We can solve it, we're good.
John C Dvorak: So Biden looks at the bunny and freaks out and
then kind of runs away from the bunny as though he's running
away from him. Maybe he's obviously been having
hallucinations calling me. And you hired for Thank you. And so
the this idea that Trump was shouting when we all witnessed
that he was not shouting. And he wasn't shouting with the mic off
because we can see the two shot because they kept showing it was
his it was Biden's imagination. So Biden is imagining things.
And
Adam Curry: he probably imagined that later, not maybe not even
at the time, he just imagined it later.
John C Dvorak: He could have reconstructed it. And by the
Adam Curry: way, how easy would it be to suggest to someone like
that?
John C Dvorak: And that's a good point. Do a couple more little
just before symptoms or before repair my last clip from the
debate or debate, whatever it's called. movement disorder, signs
of Parkinson's disease known as Parkinson's signs may occur. The
symptoms include slowed movements, rigid muscles, tremor
or shuffling walk. This can cause a person to fall
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah, many times up the stairs, on the podium
everywhere.
John C Dvorak: Poor regulation of body functions. The part of
the nervous system that controls automatic functions is called
the automatic nervous system. Their Lewy Body Dementia can
affect how well the auto nomic nervous system controls blood
pressure, heart rate, blah, blah, blah, this can result in
death, dizziness, falls, and bladder control and death and
bowel issues. Okay.
Adam Curry: I'm not going to take us to D day that's not
fair.
John C Dvorak: cognate cognitive problems. Trouble with sleep.
This is interesting. They have to take a lot of naps. And the
NAPS have come into the conversation of varying
attention episodes of drowsiness, long periods of
staring into space, long naps during the day, or a
disorganized speech or possible. Depression and apathy. And a
couple other things that this is in the show notes. I did. I sent
it to you can put it in there. And just from the Mayo Clinic,
so So when I heard him, I just want to mention that stuff.
Because when I heard him say that he said Trump was shouting
and it was distracting him. I'm thinking, well, this is this is
this guy's shot. Anyway, so we have the Council on Foreign
Relations going after him to get rid of him for obvious reasons
now. And and John Carl, who is a member of the Council on Foreign
Relations,
Adam Curry: was off course of course he is. Yeah, of
John C Dvorak: course he is because everyone knows a
reporter from ABC should be an expert on Foreign Relations. So
John, Jonathan Karl is actually his name. Jonathan Karl is one
of the analysts at the end of this 22 minute thing. And he is
on board with getting rid of Biden and he makes a big fuss
about it. And so he has some comment, his very negative he
did he actually doubled down on you know, Stephanopoulos seem to
be kind of mixed hadn't, apparently, I think mixed
feelings. He didn't look like he was comfortable delivering this
blow, which was, it wasn't harsh, but it wasn't, you know,
didn't prove anything positive for Biden. But Carl decides to
come in. And this is I think his one of his comments that was
Unknown: piling on, that he is losing in the view of many
Democrats and frankly, in the polls, you cited that he is
losing to Donald Trump. And there was one question that you
asked where his answer is, particularly, I believe,
alarming to to some of those Democrats. You asked him how he
will feel in January, if he has lost to Donald Trump and all
that he has warned what happened came to pass and this was his
answer. He said, all feel as long as I gave it my all and did
the best job. I know I can do that. That's what this is about.
One prominent ally of the President simply responded to
me. Wow. When I asked about
Adam Curry: that question, unnamed ally of course.
Unknown: So the bottom line here. There was nothing in this
interview that will force Joe Biden out of the race. There was
no you know, major thing that will convince him or any of his
allies. I believe they have to go but there's also nothing in
this interview that will calm the nerves of Democrats were
saying it is time for him to get out. All right,
Adam Curry: I have if you're, if that's it for now I
John C Dvorak: can that will be my presentation. Okay. Look good
chef.
Adam Curry: Thank you. Thank you chef off to CBS, which stands
for Chef broadcasting systems.
Unknown: I'm Robert Costa in Washington and this week on Face
The Nation with July 4 behind us the week ahead could be a
critical one for the political future of President Joe Biden
and the Democratic Party. 10 days after Mr. Biden's moments
rattled Democrats, many of them across the country are privately
and publicly questioning whether he is the strongest candidate to
face former President Donald Trump. President Biden says he's
up to the job and insists as he did in an exclusive interview
with ABC News is George Stephanopoulos that he will not
quit the race for
more and I'm ready to give rise to Joker now the race. The race
is Lord Almighty is not coming down.
But the pressure on the President to consider stepping
aside from the contest is intensifying. And with Congress
back in session, and key US allies headed to Washington for
a NATO meeting. The next few days are said to be crucial
ones. Okay?
Adam Curry: So it's all staging. It's all very dramatic music. Of
course, NBC Meet the Press all in this Sunday
Unknown: pressure campaign. to election day, a defiant
President Biden vows he's staying in the race,
running and gonna win again.
But as his poll numbers plummet and Democrats consider vice
president Harris at the top of the ticket pressure is building
for him to drop out.
I think it's a legitimate question to say, is this an
episode or is this a condition? He has to show that he can do
the job? He does not have a lot of time?
Can the 81 year old President reassure his party, he's still
fit to serve on a cognitive test every single day? Every day?
Adam Curry: I meet so at this point, and I think there's
something going on behind the scenes which I'll get to this is
all just window dressing. This is just to let me get everybody
into it like it's over. It's I mean, literally, what is the one
article is this Biden's ABC interview flops? This is from
Axios. With Hill Democrats quote, He's toast. So I mean,
we're this is it's I think there's already things being
arranged. And I have some ideas about that. First, let's go to
the network that scored this exclusive. ABC. Tonight
Unknown: President Biden hoping to turn the page saying calls
for him to drop out of the race over concerns about his age are
nonsense. In a campaign fundraising message, Biden
saying they were wrong when they said we couldn't take on the NRA
or Big Pharma or big oil. Forget the pundits, his team arguing
that over the last 24 hours out on the campaign trail and
sitting down with our George Stephanopoulos, the President
has demonstrated he is fit to serve and has a path to win a
source familiar with the campaign's thinking telling ABC
News, again
Adam Curry: that all of it is there's no one's actually coming
on the air and saying much. There's a couple of congress
people who have been pushed to the foreground but in general is
all sources say people familiar with they don't really have the
people who have either the balls to do it or the authority to do
it. This is all marketing at this point. Millia
Unknown: with the campaign's thinking, telling ABC News,
we're electing a president to lead and deliver for the
American people in an incredibly dangerous and fraught time.
We're not electing a performer for a reality TV show. But a
growing chorus of Democrats unconvinced five current House
Democrats now calling on Joe Biden to step aside
Adam Curry: five. How many are there how many House Democrats
are there like 270?
John C Dvorak: No. Less than 200.
Adam Curry: I'm just saying they can only get hundreds. Yeah,
they can only get five to talk.
Unknown: The latest to join the call represented Angie Craig of
Minnesota, a must win state for President Biden, another of
those House Democrats, Mike Quigley of Illinois, celebrating
Biden's record, but saying he does not think the President can
win
was a tough race. It's brutal. Now, with the greatest respect.
I don't think he's up for it.
A handful of heavyweight donors also publicly weighing in
Netflix co founder Reed Hastings saying he needs to step aside
but others forcefully defending Biden, including Pennsylvania
senator john Fetterman. I wouldn't
Adam Curry: be here right now if I didn't absolutely believe that
he is the right man. That's the endorsement. You want that guy
and he has deserved
Unknown: to have Ark kinds of support and all that and
thermonuclear meltdown and just a couple of days after that it's
Adam Curry: like for Democrats for God's sake, you know, get a
spine or grow a set one or the other. A lot of God coming in I
mean by I don't have it but Biden saying, Oh, no, no. Until
God tells comes down and tells me to stop. I'm not stopping.
Okay. Do it. There's
John C Dvorak: one of the pundits on, on fox that said,
Biden's age, he shouldn't be invoking God.
Adam Curry: He's just like, come down. Hey, Josh. Trouble. These
are two short ones with the recline. Who is the political I
think the boss is the political coverage over the ABC. Let's get
Unknown: right to ABC News. political director Rick Klein
and Rick give us the big picture right and remains defiant. But
the clock is ticking towards the convention.
Where does he stand in this race right now?
Adam Curry: This is great. defiant clock is ticking.
Unknown: Wait no matter what Joe Biden says about the polls and
whether he believes them or not. They are the reality right now.
The 538 national polling average has Biden trailing by about two
points to former President Trump and in every single one of the
major seven battleground states, he right now is behind it. That
was the reality going into the debate. And there are many
people watching the interview last night who thought that he
turned that around substantially, those numbers are
going to be interesting to watch in a very consequential couple
of days ahead. Okay.
Adam Curry: So thank you, Rick, for saying nothing. But let's
get back to how about Trump and Rick, what about Biden's
opponent, Donald Trump and his campaign? How
Unknown: are they responding to
this turmoil among the Democrats? Trump has been
uncharacteristically quiet, he did put out a pretty snarky
statement encouraging Biden to stay in the race after the
interview with George. But he also has a lot on his own plate.
His convention the Republican Convention starts in just nine
days and before then he's almost certain to choose a vice
presidential running mate, even though the contours of this race
are quite unsettled as of this moment,
Adam Curry: as of this moment. Okay, so of course, Trump did do
something very sneaky, which we I got a reasonable copy of it.
It's only 42 seconds. Most people have probably seen it.
This is the leaked golf cart. Chat. She
John C Dvorak: Yes, the league got which I tell you we had it
the last No, no, no. Audio is bad. Yeah.
Adam Curry: This is a better audio, which I got from somebody
must have fixed it. Believe me. Trump made a call Hey, hey, you
can't really hear it. The no agenda guys need to be able to
play it. Oh, here it is. gave me
Unknown: so much. As if he has broken down. He just quit. You
know, he's quitting the rest. Is that right? I guess that means
we have Kamala, I think she's gonna be better. She's so
so pathetic. It's, it's it's just, I just can't imagine but
can you imagine that go with dealing with Putin and the
president of China who's a fierce person. He's a fierce
man. Very tough guy. And they see them they they just
announced he's, he's probably quitting.
Adam Curry: So, so clearly, they they went back and sweetened
this or got a better copy and let it out there. Thank you. We
appreciate that for the show. It's always good.
John C Dvorak: should mention that in there. He did. Give GE a
haulout. Yeah, well,
Adam Curry: Putin, obviously
John C Dvorak: on purpose to to boost him. But also that's
that's
Adam Curry: what the American people really need to hear. You
know, the debate. None of nothing was really about what
and certainly the the Biden campaign is doing. Is there not
saying this is why you want him? No, it's only to beat Trump to
beat Trump. But that that, that horses is already broken down in
the field of horses glue, it's glue, you know, no one would no
one cares about that anymore. People care about why can't I
afford fireworks? So here's the knot. Here's the non CFR David
Axelrod on CNN, with with his very cool, he was pretty quiet.
We haven't heard much from Axelrod until until the debate
now he's everywhere.
Unknown: Well, the question is that he changed the minds of
voters who are watching that. I don't really think so. You know,
he, Jim, I think that some of it, I found sad, but he he seems
not to be able to compute the fact that people have these
questions about him. He said, I have a you know, when George
Stephanopoulos asked him if he'd be willing to take a cognitive
test. He said, I take a cognitive test every day. Well,
the fact is, that may be true, but 75% of the American people
think he fail. They they fail. So I mean, they're they've lost
and so this is a real problem for him, and it's something that
shows up in every poll. And in terms of where he stands in the
race. You know, that no politician out there will tell
only has the same perception that the President does that
this is a tied race and he's right in the hunt right now. He
was 10 points ahead four years ago, he's six points behind now
worsens in most of the battleground states, and now in
danger of losing states that weren't thought to be in
contention. So what you see, Jim, you saw in Wisconsin today,
Tammy Baldwin, the senator from Wisconsin, wasn't at this event.
Why because she's up for reelection and it's not helpful
to helpful to her to be seen with the President. This is
what's going to happen. And some somebody really needs to be
honest with him about it. It's it can't be the good Lord, but
it should be people who love and care for him and his closest
advisors. His portrait of where he is in this race doesn't
comport with reality.
Adam Curry: This really amazing how they bring God into this.
Everyone's doing that ever since Joe invoked it to weird now
let's go to an actual CFR member from the the European arm of the
Central Intelligence propaganda new services, Deutsche Avella.
Now, who would they bring on who is a fine CFR member over there
in Europe?
John C Dvorak: Could be anybody?
Adam Curry: I don't know. Ian Bremmer?
John C Dvorak: Oh god, yes.
Unknown: Ever more. Now I'm joined by Ian Bremmer. He's an
author and president of the geopolitical risk consultancy
Eurasia group. Ian, it's good to have you back on the show. We
need
Adam Curry: to this should be the creative or act geopolitical
Consulting Group I
John C Dvorak: come up with a dynamite name. We can consult
with ourselves. This is a great name sources within
Adam Curry: the C C and D. Geopolitical consultancy, say
even more
Unknown: now I'm joined by Ian Bremmer, he's an author and
president of the geopolitical risk consultancy Eurasia group.
Ian, it's good to have you back on the show. You've got the
president there saying judge me by the past three and a half
years don't judge me by 90 minutes from last week. But the
polls suggest that is not what people are doing. This
John C Dvorak: has been the most significant concern of Biden's
campaign and potential reelection is that he's too old
to serve. I've never seen an election campaign in any major
democracy, where a person running is clearly not going to
be physically able to serve out the entire term. And there's
nobody that thinks that Biden would be able, for four more
years to actually act as president now, that implies he
really shouldn't have been running for reelection a year
ago. And a lot of people have been saying that and concerned
about it. But Biden himself has not been the issue. Is that what
everyone's been worried about quietly, everyone now is worried
about in public. And that is the fact that Biden's age and his
physical capacity, and to less of a degree, perhaps his mental
acuity, but it's really I think about the ability to just serve
in the role. It's a very, very pressing job. Very few people
believe that he's up for that. And that that is the nature of
the crisis that he and the Democrat Party Democratic party
today is facing United States.
Adam Curry: Interesting that he switched from the correct term
Democrat Party to Democratic Party that I haven't heard that
done at the end there. But I think these are the talking
points is like, hey, you know, this might be something going on
with his mental acuity, but really, it's just as clearly as
not
John C Dvorak: just instead of getting into the possibility
that he has dementia of one form or another, let's just be ageist
about it. But everybody can can relate to ages.
Adam Curry: People Yes, of course, I'm starting to
understand that more and more myself every day.
John C Dvorak: To be my age. He is going
Adam Curry: to hammer at home here though.
John C Dvorak: They are saying that this is a problem and it
needs to be addressed. And frankly, it needs to have been
addressed a week ago. They shouldn't have waited until
Friday, the week after the debate to have a sit down no
holds barred, taped interview with a friendly George
Stephanopoulos and to be out there more media
Adam Curry: friendly to who in to the Democrats or to the CFR,
I'm thinking he means a friendly to the CFR
John C Dvorak: with a friendly George Stephanopoulos need to be
out there more immediately. And and more extensively. But but
they know that over the next, you know, weeks, they're going
to have to address this in a way that is seen as satisfactory by
the bulk of Biden supporters or Biden is going to have to stand
down and I If you asked me what I expect, at this point, and I'm
not saying this on the basis of having spoken to Biden, but I
expect that Biden will not be the nominee. I think his name
will not be on the ballot in November.
Adam Curry: There you go. So that's that's the final word.
And what he says is, they know, they know, they know. So he,
he's not talking about the Democrat Party. He's talking
about the Biden family. And we know that the Biden crime family
got together with Hunter, you know, they're all sitting there,
Jill, of course, we know that she's the power player. She's
the only one that can really control Joe. And really, that he
I'm sure looks to his look to her for 47 years, as you pointed
out, on the last show, you know, Biden has, I mean, just got even
just his legislation, the 94 crime bill, but the way he would
talk to people, he was a douche. He always was just a mean
spirited, retail politician. And so Biden.
John C Dvorak: No, I didn't say who I said hope. Because yeah, I
liked the idea of a retail politician. Thank you. Thank
Adam Curry: you. I don't know where I picked that up. It's not
not one of my own. And, and if you're in politics for 50 years,
and you're still there, I mean, you know, people say Why did
Obama choose Biden? How about he has that type of power? How
about he has the goods on people?
John C Dvorak: I don't want to you know, this is really irks
him that I'm gonna bring this up?
Adam Curry: No, you're I am, I am agreeing. And I already know
John C Dvorak: No, but I want to what I want to bring up is a
clip that we lost. Oh. And I brought it up before it was a
couple of black guys on some podcasts or something. And this
was like, I'd say, during the, during the Obama administration,
were one of the black guy says you don't have a clue about
what's really going on with Obama. And that White House, Joe
Biden is a pot as is a powerful man. And he went on and on about
him being like the head of a crime family and a gangster and
somebody you had to be careful about. And it was it was just an
off the wall clip that we played. And I always remembered
it beat by Unfortunately, I couldn't couldn't find in a
million years because it who knows how it was titled. But
I've ever since I heard that I've always taken a secondary
look, which will always brought me to the default, by the way,
always brought me to the idea that in some ways Biden was
faking his ailments as a as Vincent the chin giganteum
during them up, but now with this Lewy bodies things? I don't
think so. No,
Adam Curry: but the family? Look, we know, look, we know
that the family has had this fantastic business going on with
getting money. I mean, let's just, you know, let's rewind the
tape here for a second. We know what Hunter has been getting in.
We know what what Joe Biden, and we know that, you know, the
billion dollars in Ukraine. I mean, the guy had power that,
you know, why else would Barack Obama have him in there? That it
seems like he has, or certainly had some power. And that power
now rests was Jill. And Jill, of course, at this point, knows
that this has to come to you again. So I think there's a
negotiation going on. I have thoughts about it. First, let's
just briefly hear from the BBC, another
Unknown: Democratic member of the US Congress has called on
President Biden to drop out of November's election race
in all five Democrats in the House of Representatives have
called on Joe Biden to step aside, the latest to come
forward is Angie Craig, a member from the state of Minnesota, she
said she didn't believe that the President could effectively
campaign and win against Donald Trump. There was she said,
simply too much at stake. And Mr. Biden should make way for a
new generation of leaders.
Adam Curry: Now, just before I get to the final bits here,
there was a feeble attempt before this Stephanopoulos
interview, to get Joe in with the blacks. I mean, that's the
only thing they're still trying to do is keep him in with the
blacks. And he did two interviews with black radio. And
see Oh,
John C Dvorak: I hope you have the clip. Yeah,
Adam Curry: CNN had had to, of course, help us understand that
even that was phony it up
Unknown: each were you asked for questions. And maybe that's what
you're allowed to ask by the campaign or the White House. But
there were essentially the same questions, both interviews about
accomplishments, progress in your respective state, what's at
stake in the election, what he has to say about his debate
performance, and what he would say to voters who think their
vote doesn't matter or might sit this election out. Were those
questions given to you by the White House, or did you have for
the campaign, or did you have to submit questions ahead of this
interview?
The questions were sent to me for approval, I approve to them.
Okay,
so the White House sent the questions to you ahead of the
interview? Yes. Okay. I
got several questions, eight of them. And the four that were
chosen were the ones that I approved. I love
Adam Curry: this. I approved those questions of the eight
that they sent me. It makes you sound like you there were See, I
know I was in total control this interview. And because I
approved four of the
John C Dvorak: questions that I was allowed of the eight I was
allowed to choose from.
Adam Curry: So all of that just shows that this is over. And now
we need to figure out how to get Joe out. And I really have the
feeling that Jill is in control hunters in there because the
Biden fit including his brother. They're like, hey, look, the
minute Joe's out, the gravy train stops. So we got to set
something up right here right now so that we can continue on
into the sunset, Joe certainly. But the rest of the family, they
need to have some kind of grift going forward. And I say that,
you know, I mean, it's high level this is not unique to the
Biden's I mean, Nancy Pelosi has her own her own stock. Everyone
has some kind of scam going on, it seems. And here's the real
problem. This is what it all comes down to
Unknown: the Democratic Party is not the happiest place on earth.
Right now. Mega donors are withholding funds in the wake of
President Biden's poor debate performance. That includes
Abigail Disney granddaughter of Disney co founder Roy Disney,
who said she intends to stop all contributions to the party until
President Biden is replaced at the top of the ticket. She said
vice president Kamala Harris is a viable alternative. In a
statement to CNBC Disney said if Biden does not step down, the
Democrats will lose of that I am absolutely certain the
consequences of the loss will be genuinely dire. Disney has made
six figure donations to Democrats and progressive causes
during previous election cycles. On Wednesday, Netflix founder
Reed Hastings told The New York Times Biden needs to step aside.
The President has also lost support as much of the media
exhibit a the latest cover of The Economist,
Adam Curry: by the way, I gotta stop this for a second. We
probably all saw the cover of The Economist with the walker
with the presidential seal on it. Am I crazy in remembering
that that was actual no agenda album art in the past? Not
John C Dvorak: crazy at all.
Adam Curry: Do you remember what Absolutely.
John C Dvorak: I remember it. What episode was I think that
was about as probably five years ago, five
Adam Curry: years ago? Well,
John C Dvorak: it would had to do with Biden. So it probably
was four. Maybe it was three years.
Adam Curry: I would love if we could find it because I mean, we
were way off
John C Dvorak: the tours listening he could probably
figure out how to find it.
Adam Curry: Okay, so to me, it was like Oh, wow. I mean, it
looks so much like they stole our
John C Dvorak: cover art looked that way. Yeah. To me. Because
we had there was the same thing. It was a walker in the
Presidential seal was on front of in the front of it. Yes, it
was the exact same art No, you're not imagining it because
I remember it to
Unknown: Mariah fund, President Gideon Stein is also withholding
more than $3 million in donations. Stein told CNBC, Joe
Biden has been a very effective president. But unless he steps
aside, my family and I are pausing on more than $3 million
in planned donations to nonprofits and political
organizations aligned with the presidential race. With the
exception of some down ballot work, Stein added that nearly
every major donor he's spoken to thinks they need to replace
Biden in order to defeat Trump. There are others who have
donated six, seven, even eight figures during this election
cycle and previous election cycles, who agreed to pausing
donations, Biden said on the Fourth of July that he isn't
going anywhere. His campaign had strong fundraising in June,
supporters gave $127 million, including 38 million in the
three days after the debate. So
Adam Curry: I was talking with my buddy Dave, Dave Jones, the
pod sage, and we're going back and forth. And we and we start
to find articles. And this is something that we have discussed
that you know more about than I do, although I have some written
information. They current the candidate Biden Harris campaign,
there's only a few things that can happen with that money. You
can't just turn around and give it to some other campaign. It's
not typical that donors will get refunds. You really have to use
so Kamala, that's why she's important is because that money
has her name attached to it along with Joe's name. They have
$91 million in cash. Imagine if you're the bite, it was 351
John C Dvorak: cash, cash, cash, this
Adam Curry: is cash. Okay, that's cash on hand is to save
240 million that's out there. But let's just say there's 91
million in actual cash. They can write checks with money. If not,
if you're behind the scenes and Jill saying, Look, I represent
the family. We understand Joe has to get out we understand,
but we're not going anywhere until the Beau Biden Foundation,
which used to be the Biden Foundation recently changed the
Beau Biden Foundation, according to their form 990 filings has $3
million in cash and assets in it now. How about you, because this
is what they all want. This is what the Bill and Hillary grift
was, this is what Obama's grip was, you want the foundation,
because with the foundation, you can get all you can get all
kinds of money flowing through, you can fly on jets, you can do
all kinds of great stuff, most of it tax free or tax deferred.
And $50 million of that 91 Reed Hastings you know, what's the
other guy? All the reads, you know, the LinkedIn guy, the
Netflix, Reid Hoffman Hoffman, you guys, I want you to kick in
another 50 million, give us $100 million. And then Joe will say,
You know what, I think it's time for me to step back. I have to
focus on on other things, in particular, my health, and we're
going to move to the foundation. Dr. Joe Biden knows a lot about
Parkinson's. Turns out I have Lewy Body Parkinson's disease,
and wouldn't you know it? Just two days ago, this happened.
President
Unknown: Biden signed legislation this week aimed at
preventing and finding a cure for Parkinson's disease
championed by New York Congressman Paul Tonko. The
national plan to end Parkinson's act will provide more federal
funding for Parkinson's research to prevent and cure the disease.
The Democrat from the 20th district says more than a
million Americans live with the disease that affects the nervous
system.
It's a really good collaborative that we have seen working really
well with the Alzheimer's model with the Alzheimer's plan. And I
really mimicked that effort for on behalf of Parkinson's. The
bipartisan legislation is modeled after the 2011 National
Alzheimer's Project Act, which created a national effort to
address the Alzheimer's crisis in all other forms of dementia
by 2025. Taco says the bill will help better focus federal
spending on research estimated at $52 billion annually. Bingo.
Adam Curry: Perfect, perfect exit perfect swan song. He
deserves it. You got your 100 million in cash. We'll guarantee
you some of this money from the bill. You just signed into law.
Mr. President, you may not remember it. We just signed into
law. This $54 billion. We'll make sure you get some of that.
You could you're off and you can
John C Dvorak: be the head of the foundation.
Adam Curry: Yes, of course. Of course. Dr. Dr. John, Dr. Jill,
Jill, Dr. Joe, I think this is a very reasonable way to get him
out to keep the Biden's at bay. They'll be happy they can go
off, you know, well, in this research, did you know that Joe
and Joe Biden, since they bought their Delaware home, which I
think they bought in 1996 for and this thing is massive. 350
months three hunt, they bought it for $350,000 in March of
1996. We should be so lucky. They have refinanced it 17 times
since this is this is how you launder money. Real estate is
the favorite way to do it. And by the way, the banks all these
Delaware savings companies loan companies, Chase is in there
once or twice. This is a great way to get money to people here.
That's how they do it. Just refinance your house, sell your
house, buy it back, you know, I bought this clearly. Two to
390 96 that would have clearly been a two if not $4 million
home $350,000. Yeah. And then you just take out mortgage and
you know, a secondary mortgages, home equity
John C Dvorak: lines, a lot of ways of milking it. Yeah,
Adam Curry: I don't I don't know that mechanism. I'm sure people
can tell us but I'm pretty sure real estate is a good way to do
it. So these people they know it. They know how to do this
stuff. A foundation makes it all legit. And we just prom and you
know what, and God will keep some pictures or some video or
some documents. They got lots of them. Keep some documents next
to the Corvette that if someone ever decides to you know Welch
on
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we got pictures. Yeah. Oh,
Adam Curry: here it is. It was episode 1394. Wow. It's even at
the same angle.
John C Dvorak: That you're talking about the picture of the
walker Walker. Presidential seal.
Adam Curry: It's even the same angle.
John C Dvorak: What was the date?
Adam Curry: That is October 28 2021. How about that? Was
that in the show? We're
John C Dvorak: just we're, you know, we're always two or three
years ahead of everybody else.
Adam Curry: We also have Dutch masters. I mean, when he still
do, we have lots of Dutch masters. So I think that is the
mechanism that they have. Everything's in place.
Everything is good to go. Jill will have some little chit she
keeps behind just in case someone besides to Welch on a
little piece of that $50 billion that she made Joe sign into law.
He's he this is an easy way to go and right on cue bringing the
kingmaker and
Unknown: so Robert, how do you guys set this up for face nation
this
Sunday morning on the CBS television network. So I'm lucky
enough to be guest anchor this weekend. And we're going to talk
to Jim Clyburn. And I think he's really important because he
actually has political capital. A lot of people claim to have
political capital. He actually has it he made by being the
nominee and 20 with his endorsement. Where's he going to
stand, parse his words carefully, and listen to what he
has to say? What's notable is that Clapper has been talking
publicly about maybe backing vice president Harris
Adam Curry: notable course the kingmaker time for him to come
in. And even though we haven't really prayed paid much
attention to it. Kamala has been out there going for the only
constituency that she really has, which is the sadly psyops
black American women who somehow those women are leave. Kamala is
black. Oh, yeah. Well, the essence awards.
Unknown: We you we have extraordinary power. And we can
never let anybody take our power from us. Never let anybody take
our power from us. And never be shy about our power. We must
encourage each other ambition, ambition is a good thing. It is
good to know one's power and then to go for what you want,
knowing you can achieve it.
Adam Curry: Hmm, yes. Good to know now. Do you remember? We
played the clip of Taraji with with the Vice President at the
BT awards that horrible back and forth, where she's in the in the
dressing room? And she's like, she's code switching to all
black talk? Well, yes. Let me just play a little bit of again,
because I got many notes from people about two things we
should have. Couldn't really have known but we should I
should have known at least one of them. Listen to this one. But
what's on your mind?
Unknown: Oh, madam VP here is I'm worried about the election.
women's reproductive rights are on the line. Our Supreme Court
is on the line, our basic freedoms are being tested. Madam
VP, I know you've been traveling across the country. What are you
hearing there? Girl? I'm
out here in the streets. And let me tell you, you're right.
terace. There is so much at stake in this moment. The
majority of us believe in freedom and equality. But these
extremist, as they say they're not like
Adam Curry: us. Now a lot of people picked up on this. I of
course picked up on the code switch. What I didn't realize is
the Kendrick Lamar Drake beef, which we discussed briefly, is
Kendrick Lamar saying, hey, Drake, he not like us. And in
fact, he had the song Not like us, because Drake is half black.
He is in fact Canadian. He's Jewish. And so that was
basically Kendrick Lamar, saying you look this guy, he's getting
paid, he's making bank but he not like us. He's not one of us.
He's an imposter. So Kamala, with it's like with, I think the
most tone deaf thing ever, is to say, Oh, they're not like us
where she is not even one like us not even like us at all. And
she grew up in Canada of all places. Very bizarre that she
would that she wouldn't invoke that. But there was something
else that she doesn't know what she's doing. There was something
else that one of our producers caught which isn't this next
bit. They
Unknown: not there's a full on attack on our fundamental
freedoms, the freedom to vote. Yep. The freedom to love who you
love the freedom to be safe from gun violence, the freedom for a
woman to make decisions about her own body not having her
government tell her what to do. They
are here trying to take away pride, Plan B and Planned
Parenthood but protecting pistols. If you ask me the
question the wrong V's
Adam Curry: so pushing the PS is a slang I was not aware of
pushing the PS is slang for pushing pounds, pounds of drugs.
So they out here pushing the wrong peas. What kind of peas
were you talking about Taraji? I mean, this was this was deep,
very deep and I wonder if that worked. doll for sure it worked
on Taraji because she then went on the Beatty awards and stopped
her introduction of the next Akon act on stage and threw this
out. I'm
Unknown: telling y'all you better show up and so out with
them ballads. I mean, serious now. No, I look good.
Adam Curry: Not with your votes, by the way with them ballots.
What is that?
John C Dvorak: What is the good one? Tim Ballard. A woman who
was busted? Yeah,
Unknown: here he is. Now. No, I look good. But it's a serious
time. I need y'all to listen. Show up and show out for when
it's time to vote. Because it's not just about the presidential
election. You guys was conference to play chess, not
checkers. It's about making decisions that will affect us as
human beings, our careers, our next generations to come. Did
you know that it is now a crime to be homeless?
Adam Curry: That's not exactly right. But okay.
Unknown: Pay attention is not a secret. Look it up. They are
attacking our most vulnerable citizens.
Adam Curry: I think when you say look it up. I think that means
don't look it up. Just take my word for
Unknown: the project. 2025 plan is not a game. They are trying
to bring the draft back.
Adam Curry: Yeah, black people. That's how America works. That's
right. We all you black. Yeah, you're drafted, please.
Unknown: I'm not trying to scare us. I'm just trying to inform
us. We got three Supreme Court seats up you guys we need those
seats. We have no protection. Okay, I got it out my sister.
Our next a former.
Adam Curry: So they're pushing real hard is Kamala for the
black women of America. And which, by the way, there's only
one guy who is now just for some odd reason, just holding on
tight. Here's Vivec.
Unknown: And that leads me to my view, at least of who I think
it's most likely to be, which is, I made no secret of this.
I've been saying this since last year when I said Biden wasn't
gonna be the nominee. I think if you really believe that sort of
collective incentives, you got to believe there's reasonable
likelihood that's actually going to end up being Michelle Obama,
somebody who is widely loved by many independents who don't
follow politics, particularly closely. Somebody who has
already, in some sense been tested. People, I think
correctly anticipate that it would be Barack Obama pulling
the strings behind the scene, but not in a negative way. I
think they would be very comfortable with that for many
Democrats, and somebody who would rise above so called the
fray of the otherwise conflict of ambitious next generation
governors, or senators who would otherwise be vying for that
position. Yeah,
Adam Curry: he said he's a die hard. I'll give him that. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: he's worse than you. Big Mike. given up on this
thing.
Adam Curry: I did Ford Big Mike 2020 four.com. To a guy.
John C Dvorak: Well, it's because you're a Joker. Joker,
Adam Curry: I'm a joker that's about
John C Dvorak: Joker's ahead. admires will play this one thing
to get it out of the way, which is a Biden clip is the only clip
on the list that says Biden, and this was you know, I was going
to try to slip it in as well. This is part of the real. This
was part of the of the Stephanopoulos interview that
was actually cut out of the interview. Yeah, sure.
Unknown: After the debate, we ran a poll. And every single
person we polled thinks that you're a retard we polled
African Americans. They all say you're a retard. Hispanic
Americans also think that you're retarded. They call you l
ritardo. Even uphold actual retarded people, even they say
you sound absolutely retarded. You see where this is going, Mr.
President?
Adam Curry: Well, I just had a bad night. That's good. You
know, as funny as there was a obviously it was an article in I
think it was the hill. Let me see. I have it here. Yes. Was
they'll know HuffPost. Opinion. It's time for the Biden campaign
to embrace AI.
John C Dvorak: Yeah. Yes, I saw this. Now. I will admit, I
didn't read it because I just look at the beginning. This is
whatever this is. I don't have time for this. Did you read it?
Yes. What did it tell you? Biden's
Adam Curry: campaign could instead set the standard norms
for what should be reasonable use of AI tools in the campaign
arena. For example, disclaimers could be included on AI
generated content, because what they're saying is they should do
aesthetic enhancements. To the president speech, AI generated
content can be tailored to highlight the present President
Biden's accomplishments. Lisa
John C Dvorak: Jo was just like a satire.
Adam Curry: I don't think so. Clearly is like it already.
Well, let me let me see. Oh, there was a Kiven. Schroth is a
Guest writer.
John C Dvorak: There's a name that Mitch makes sense if you
reorganize the letters. Yeah, yeah, well sound right. It
sounds like a satire.
Adam Curry: Well, it didn't.
John C Dvorak: I didn't think of it as a satire when I saw
Adam Curry: it. I didn't I still don't see it as satire.
John C Dvorak: But well, what you just said is very satirical.
So well,
Adam Curry: in our mind. Yesterday. Remember, some people
are insane.
John C Dvorak: Yes, I realized that some people are insane, but
we, but they don't care and they don't catch satire, but our job
is to catch it.
Adam Curry: Well, Kate Fang jumped in and tried to make
President Trump look like that retard as as we just heard that
AI clip from Stephanopoulos
Unknown: for the last week the media has been portraying
Democrats in crisis mode trying to figure out a path to victory
after the first presidential debate. But with all the
attention that has been given to Joe Biden very little scrutiny
has been given to the real issues that should have been
discussed at the podium and even less attention has been paid to
Donald Trump's firehose of lies and promises to destroy. For
example, Donald Trump has privately promised donors he'll
ensure a national 16 week abortion ban and publicly he's
promised to begin the largest domestic deportation operation
in American history, reinstate his Muslim travel ban and expand
it to include Gaza and refugees use the military to address
domestic crime. Eliminate the Department of Education,
rollback dozens of Biden's climate and gun control measures
and act of federal law stating that there are only two genders
repeal the Affordable Care Act charter 10 New Freedom cities
that includes flying cars, yes flying cars. And of course
finally he promises to finish building that wall freedom
Adam Curry: flying cars flying cars
John C Dvorak: I mean count me in on all those things. I'm
Adam Curry: I'm good with that. I want to live in his freedom
city with flying cars that'll do it for me. Couple other
elections a couple other elections around the world a
John C Dvorak: while before you wait before you go there. I do
at this get some other stuff out of the way. I do have a couple
more clips. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you were on the topic.
That's okay. We're done. So So I and these there's too many of
these concerns. They're pretty short. This one this long. It's
the payoff clip. But this is so they had they brought this woman
out you we talked about black women and their devotion to
Biden in the in the in the Democrats. And so they had to
decide a Brooks and shield and Brooks and Cape are K parts took
off? For the
Adam Curry: Hampshire law for the Hamptons. For the Hamptons,
the Hamptons choir, some
John C Dvorak: yarn. I'm not sure I mean clog. But he's I
think he's also upset about the Biden fail. Because he's a big,
huge Biden, he was one of those guys, that's talking about
Biden's gonna wipe out Trump.
Adam Curry: Oh, yes to hide.
John C Dvorak: So we have this woman, her name, she's got a
hyphenated last name store something. And she's a columnist
for The Boston Globe and activist, columnist. Reporter,
which is the latest thing, and I will be one of these shows I'll
comment on in more depth. But there's all these journalists
that are pushing the idea that we shouldn't be doing balanced
reporting. It's a bad idea.
Adam Curry: Oh, no, we can't do that. We have to be like,
John C Dvorak: you have to take Hitler side on the argument.
What's wrong with you? Where were you? So but she's one of
them. And I just wait if we if we can tolerate these clips.
Sure. Play Brooks and store one. And this is this is the setup.
At
Unknown: a campaign event in Wisconsin this afternoon.
President Joe Biden vowed to stay in the race for the White
House. Well, guess
what? They're trying to push me out on the race. Let me say this
queries I can. I'm staying in the race.
Donald Trump for analysis on the tenuous weak in the Democratic
Party, we turn to Brooks and Atkins store that is New York
Times columnist David Brooks and Boston Globe columnist Kimberly
Atkins storage on NK part is away. Great to see you. John.
Adam Curry: K part is hide in quad hiding in the Hamptons.
Yes.
John C Dvorak: So we start off and the two of them Borthwick
typical recursive of PBS is that the news our is that nobody's in
disagreement. They're all Democrats are all in lockstep in
their opinions, which gives the public absolutely no benefit
whatsoever, but they keep doing
Adam Curry: about this for a month. So I've been I've been
tracking like the real diehard New York Times readers, people
who grew up with the New York Times, you know, who, who have
always trusted the media. And two prime examples would be Dave
Weiner, my my partner in creating podcasting, and
Cheerilee and Jeff Jarvis. And, and they are on. Well, I only
follow them on mastodon. They're I think they're everywhere
Twitter and Facebook and threads. And
John C Dvorak: they their their real opinions are on mastodon.
Now I think a day
Adam Curry: I think they want to poke cross posts everything but
they are incensed by the media. They are now I mean, they're
talking about we need to set up our own media, like Hello.
Hello, podcasting. You know, we need we need to, you know, we
can't trust the New York Times. We can't trust the media, we
can't trust anybody. It's all broken. And this to me is a good
thing. I love that now, people who are obviously are clearly
left leaning or Democrat, just to name it, that they finally
see that the media does not care about them. It was great when
they were on their side, but now they're not. And yes, the New
York Times with their editorial board, they are they're meddling
and things that have little to do with journalism. Hello,
welcome to the party. We all agree on something.
John C Dvorak: Yes, I've noticed this too, is because the New
York Times is not pushing their agenda, the agenda that there's
the whatever you want whoever's behind the guy, they're not
pushing what these guys want, which is just Democrat,
Democrat, Democrat, one party system, run by Democrats, and I
think they're
Adam Curry: realizing that we actually have a one party system
and has nothing to do with politics. It's the people behind
the scenes.
John C Dvorak: I don't think they're that self aware. But
okay. I think it's just a pure Democrat. I want you to promote
Why don't you pushing Biden more is a certain weird blindness to
those guys. Yes, Brooks and start start a store to
Unknown: let's just take stock of where we are right now. We
have now seen three House Democrats publicly call for the
president to step aside. The Washington Post reported late
today, Democratic Senator Mark Warner is attempting to pull
together Democratic senators asking him to leave the race.
And we're starting to see some major democratic donors back
away. Among them, Abigail Disney of the Disney family. She said
in a statement yesterday, she's stopping all democratic
contributions until Biden is replaced and she said this,
quote, this is realism, not disrespect. Biden is a good man.
He served his country admirably. But the stakes are far too high.
Can Can the president change the narrative? Or is this heading
one direction?
Look, the President has already done what Democrats were waiting
for. They needed him to make the decision as to whether he would
be the nominee or not. We're past the primaries, voters have
already had their say, it would have to be the nominee to make
that decision. And it seems that he has. So now Democrats really
don't have a choice Mark Warner donors, other people don't pick
the Democratic nominee for president. The people in the
process do and they've already done that. So I think at this
point, I agree that this is a crucial moment in time and that
the threat of democracy that looms with a potential return to
the White House of Donald Trump is something that cannot be
ignored. I think the more Democrats continue to fight and
quibble and play this game about replacing the the President when
there's no not even an heir apparent, the weaker they are.
We haven't heard anything from Donald Trump this week. And
that's probably the most discipline he's campaign ever
because he realizes that Democrats are doing the work for
him.
Adam Curry: She hasn't heard about any heir apparent, really.
John C Dvorak: She's not reading on anything. She's so out of
touch. She is but she is representative. As we've been
noticing of these black females that are just lockstep in
Biden's camp Democrats. And it's good to know. I mean, I know Moe
has all these theses about what it's like a setup of some sort.
Yeah. And, yeah,
Adam Curry: this is the next one. When Trump wins, they'll
all be out of a job and out of the public eye.
John C Dvorak: We'll see. So we continue to this, unfortunately,
I think this is a little slow moving until we get to this clip
for which is the setup of this clip three coming up, David
Unknown: at this critical moment, as Kim says, how can the
President calm those concerns that are clearly still out
there? Well, you
could take a cognitive test, which is what I think you should
do over the weekend. I'm worried about they're sort of worried
about now, but really, they're worried about 2027 what Joe
Biden is gonna be like in 2027 If he's still president, and So
he should take a test and say, and he's he's taken them in the
past. And he said, I took this cognitive test. That's doctors,
it's all public. Here it is. rest my case. And so he could do
that. I think, frankly, he should do that. Because right
now there's like clouds of witnesses. Like it all these
anonymous stories floating around there. There's like a lot
of people saying, oh, Biden's been like this for weeks or
months, then there's people anonymous stories in White House
staff, they're all miserable. Then there's anonymous stories
that the people in Democrats in Congress are really angry at the
Democrats who are governors, who were supporting him and the
Democrats in Congress did not want to run with Joe Biden the
top of their ticket. And so it's all this anonymous floating. And
it's very hard to get a sense of where the vibe of the party is.
I do think what's been clear in my reading of the floating is
that people have been more reconciled to the idea that
Kamala Harris would be the alternative, that moving beyond
her it's just not a nonstarter. There's some doubt about whether
the money can flow to any candidate. I think it probably
can. But you see people getting more comfortable with the idea
of Kamala Harris. So I don't think this is going to be over
though. Biden statement today was pretty definitive, but the
party is, you know, 72% of Americans don't think he's
qualified to be president or to run again for President. That's
that's just a reality. Boy,
Adam Curry: even Brooks like, oh, it's anonymous, just all
these anonymous people. I guess no one talks to Brooks.
John C Dvorak: Guy, store. So now this is the set. Now we have
Brooks in store and the woman this woman who is the subject,
she's the co host of the show they did. She's the only one
working the week are working the holiday and she is because
Adam Curry: she has no worries. No one wants her at the garden
party.
John C Dvorak: She race the hostess, the hostess, who's
South Asian looking, she hates Trump store hates Trump and
Brooks reluctantly, you know, doesn't like Trump either. This
is like this is this the News Hour has deteriorated to just a
bunch of Trump haters. And it's become kind of obvious after a
while. But here's this thing I consider to be the setup clip.
Unknown: I think that this is as you're describing it, these
circles, these clouds. These are largely happening inside the
beltway. Okay. And again, inside the beltway isn't where the
President will be showing will be campaigning. That's
not the way or I should point out there are voter concerns
about his age
or our voters concerns too. But I have by and large, the
majority of the people that I have heard from from coast to
coast, want to focus on beating Donald Trump. They have just as
much agita about democratic infighting and handmaking, as
they do about a couple of sentences that Joe Biden flubbed
during the debate. They see this inching closer and closer, we're
coming up on both conventions, the time to make a decision is
over. And I think if Democrats pull together and show again,
half of the fight that Republicans have, who have
always stood behind Donald Trump, and they actually have a
candidate with a good record who believes in fighting for
democracy, the better off the Democrats will be yes, even if
Kamala Harris is the candidate and it's, I think it's a little
insulting to her that it's only It's only taken till now for
them to realize that she is the Vice President of the United
States. Maybe but I think that decision has already has to have
been made. And Joe Biden has made it he's staying in.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, this is a classic woman. She said, he made
a couple of flubs that notice that he's staring off into space
and all the rest of it. Or is there a whole segment of the
population that is blind? to what's going on with this guy?
They
Adam Curry: just forgot to cc her on the email. They didn't
know that
John C Dvorak: she actually watched the debate and see this
guy trying to she still know
Adam Curry: this. Please, John. I mean, I know this is probably
rhetorical what you're doing but she you said it to me and she
just didn't get read in she doesn't know she hasn't been
told. It shouldn't be given the talking points. She's still on
the old plan.
John C Dvorak: She got to Hey, Hey, lady, you've got the old
code book. No
Adam Curry: wonder no wonder what's wrong what they didn't
know. They didn't know K part probably has it but he's like,
Screw it. I'm out. I'm going to the clog
John C Dvorak: going to the beach. Yeah. Okay, so here we go
with the I call this the wild clip because there's a while
kind of a thing going on here.
Unknown: Even what about the stakes here about Kim mentioned
Abigail Disney mentioned them in her statement as well. Biden
backers have told me Look, they're worried that the focus
on this conversation takes the focus off of Trump who is an
anti Democratic candidate with authoritarian tendencies, who is
now new ones powered by that Supreme Court immunity ruling
the head of the Heritage Foundation we should point out
that's running this project 2025 policy planning for a potential
second Trump term said this this week. He said the country is in
what he called the Second American Revolution. And it
could be quote, blood Listen, if the left allows it to be there's
kind of this alarming language around a potential Trump
presidency. Are we losing sight of the stakes here? Ah,
Adam Curry: this is the 2020 project 2025. I put it in the
show notes again for everybody to see it's 900 pages. I hear I
doubt this lady read it. I reread it for what what? I mean,
imagine putting in five points in the chat GPT and saying write
900 pages. That's exactly what
John C Dvorak: that's exactly what it is. It's so old that you
know what it might actually have been that way. It sure looks
Adam Curry: like it's so old that it still speaks of getting
rid of Roe v. Wade. That's how old this this document is. And,
you know, the way it's portrayed is ah, oh, oh, clutch my pearls.
Trump wants to get rid of the Department of Education. What
will we do with our children? Yeah. The department
John C Dvorak: of education we should notice a route recently
created.
Adam Curry: It's not that's not a radical position from the
right at all. But
John C Dvorak: it's been discussed by your ex Governor
there in Texas Perry used to bench and when he ran for
president he was the only one to do is get rid of the Department
of Education.
Adam Curry: So the narrative they're trying to create here. I
in fact, I have the headline from salon project 2025 was
supposed to boost Donald Trump's campaign, but now it's
backfiring instead. But no one read this.
John C Dvorak: I don't. You know, to be honest about it.
Maybe I've just missed it. I don't remember Trump even
mentioning project 2025 speeches. I listened to his hour
and a half speeches and he never mentions it, you know, guy who
mentions it. Now before I played this.
Adam Curry: Let me just say one thing. I think this came to the
foreground when Tucker of all people did his speech at the
Heritage Foundation. I think that's when project 2025 started
to surface.
John C Dvorak: I don't disagree and I'll tell you why. All
right.
Adam Curry: Ban in WoW, ban on Yeah. Well, okay. Ban has
John C Dvorak: been pushing and I who do have to ban and clips
I'll get I'll play him after this last clip. Yeah, good
Adam Curry: point. Good point.
John C Dvorak: John. I'm sorry. John Karl interviewed Bannon and
Ben. All Bannon does is talking about Project 2020.
Adam Curry: Okay, all right. I got you. I'm with you.
John C Dvorak: I'm we're gonna hit now we have to pay off this.
These maniacs is hating on Trump, and it's all about just
don't get him in because he's gonna He's gonna ruin democracy.
And he's going to do I don't know what they're even
imagining? Are we
Unknown: losing sight of the stakes here?
Yeah, I think so. I mean, before he went to prison, I went over
to see Steve Bannon, and interviewed him and I was scared
out of my mind, like, I just asked him what's gonna happen if
you guys win, it'll be nothing like 2017 2017. We didn't have
staff, we had nothing. But now we've got people who have been
vetted, we've got people who are trained. And we're just gonna go
after the deep state, it looks like a dismantling of the civil
service, basically. And that's just the beginning. So I do
think people are losing some focus on that. And, you know,
I've been a broken record on this for whatever, seven years.
But it is also true that every American pretty much has seen an
elderly relative in decline. And they sort of know what that
looks like. And if I could just do one, one bit of just random
polling, as I mentioned, 72% of Americans don't think he should
run again. If you look at the Wall Street Journal, the New
York Times poll, Trump is up by six, in today's approval
numbers, Biden is at a record low. Trump is winning the swing
states by more than before. So there's real cause for concern.
And if your main goal is to get Donald Trump out, not reelected,
to me, it's a very open question of what the best route. That for
that is. And I'm not saying I'm not one of these people who says
Joe Biden should sit down, I'll wait. But I do think it's an
open question. I
want to get back to this issue of how we're talking about
President Trump as well here, which is to say, there seems to
be sort of an asymmetry of expectations as well in terms of
Trump's performance in the debate, which was filled with
misleading statements and lies my my, my eyes, my eyes, my
eyes. He's only three years younger than President Biden
often veers off script when he's not on prompter is Do you see
that asymmetry? Is that affecting the conversation right
now? Kim?
I want 100% See that asymmetry? Look, we can talk about, you
know, mental cognitive tests that people might want the
President to take but we already know that Donald Trump has
failed the moral test he's failed the democracy test he's
failed the insurrection test.
Adam Curry: If I like firehose of lies I think that's that's
that's that's a good one fire hose of laughs
Unknown: Barrows of life arrows of lies so
John C Dvorak: so so John Carl before abandoned went to jail
Unknown: Banyan
John C Dvorak: Yeah, Banyan before Banyan went to jail, John
Carl, I guess Brooks did to interview it. He might you know,
I don't know why this guy's got some guys see. I don't know why
because he cares. Perfect
Adam Curry: father. I mean, it's Forex. Exactly, exactly the
outcome they have. Drive at 2025 His own hands, man, it's
unhinged. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: that's gotta be it. I mean, otherwise, it's
like, who cares? But okay. So let's I just have two clips from
this interview with John cart Jonathan Karl, the Council on
Foreign Relations guy who was the head of the Press
Association in DC, the White House press correspondence. And
here he is bitching about our George taken on Bannon. If
Unknown: Trump wins, when what does it look like? How is this
different from the last? President Trump hasn't signed
off on this. But look, here's what's going to happen, I
believe, three verticals, I believe, first vertical seal the
border in the mass deportations. And the second vertical is about
the finances, you know, Trump's going to have to deal with a
budget of $2 trillion of deficits, he's going to have to
look at the getting the tax cuts back. And the third is to stop
these endless forever wars in Ukraine in Israel and around the
South China Sea and Taiwan. That's the program of what he's
going to drive to say we have to accomplish this. So I think a
whole big part of Project 2025 is actually going into the
apparatus, the the post constitutional Leviathan, and
start to take apart the administrative administrative
state brick by brick. No, I understand that. And I have 900
pages right here of just what this is just Project 2025. Yeah,
this is just this is just the Kevin or this is just heritage.
Adam Curry: You know, this is a grift at this point, the Banyan
had nothing to do with writing this. His name is not on this.
Everyone else. Everyone's name is on this thing. The first 30
pages is who did it. He's not in there is no Banyon credit for
this thing. This he's kind of Griffey here. Like, Oh, yeah.
No, I
John C Dvorak: think he's been Griffey all along. Okay.
Adam Curry: I mean, in the beginning, he definitely helped
Trump in 2015 2016. But, you know, everything
John C Dvorak: is all about him, though. It's always him. When
the narcissist Carl calls him out in the second clip here, I
think, rightfully, and Banyon just got lots of slide and he
goes on and on. You know, over time I become, I come to dislike
this guy.
Unknown: When I interviewed abandoned back in 2018, he
predicted an astounding victory for Republicans saying they
would run the tables in the house. Instead, Democrats picked
up 40 seats. And in 2022, he predicted a massive blowout for
Republicans. Instead, they lost most of the competitive races
across the country. The 2022 did not come out anywhere near what
we thought I mean, all your guys lost you, you know, people like
Kerry Lake and masters. I say Mastriano. I mean, these, let me
get let me make sure ABC News understands this. Okay, this is
a populist, nationalist revolution. It's a process.
We're not going to win every election. So you may not lose
sight. So you may not win in November. I happen to think if
you look at the numbers today, you particularly if you look,
hang on, hang on, not just that you look at the fiasco, we have
to do two things, just real briefly. We have two tracks that
have to go down, right. One is for the country. Yeah, this
national security crisis we have with the commander in chief
that's clearly not up to the job and a constitutional crisis or
come with the 25th amendment for that that is something that has
to go down this track. They also have a political situation over
there, they're going to try to change by knots. And are you
worried that Democrats will replace Biden with somebody who
will be harder to beat? I was not a fan of doing this debate
at this time? Because I said you're given a free option. i
President Trump should debate who the Democratic Party nominee
is not a guy named Joe. But if it's Biden do it. If it's
Gretchen Whitmer, do it if it's Gavin Newsom, Michelle Obama,
you pick it, the Democrats should pick it. That's their
choice. But President Trump, I believe my belief is instead of
the show that he did it for the country to show because he took
all the CNN rules, which I thought were crazy, took the
cut, Mike, he took the no audience and rules that may have
helped him they took the took the two breaks, let's say this,
he performed magnificently.
Adam Curry: Here's your video. By the way, the things that
being mentioned the first clip about Project 2025, who can be
against that? Who can be against fixing the budget? Who can be
against lower taxes? Who can be against no wars? And who can be
against I don't think a single American is against the
dismantling of the administrative state, except for
the What is it 7 million people who are on the payroll in the
administrative states? I'm sure they are beside themselves,
because that was it. Schedule F for whatever they put in place
that was snuck through where you can now easily fire people in
the administrative state. They're
John C Dvorak: trying to make it so it's easy, easier. You'd
always fire people. I worked in the administrative state and
people got fired all the time.
Adam Curry: Did you ever get fired? No. You played.
John C Dvorak: You play. Most people quit. Because it's it's
the to military working in the desert, just my observation and
there and observations are old now, but I stay stick with you
is that it's depressing to work in the administrative state.
Yeah. I mean, it was great for me because I was working during
the downturn in the economy, then I didn't realize it because
I did have no more knowledge now than I did then. And I was
living it up basically, in a situation where everybody else
was, you know, starving to death. But there's, it's a soul
crushing job to work for the government. You working with
people who have a lot of there's a lot of it's make work, there's
people that really aren't doing anything, and they sit around
conniving. It's very difficult and soul crushing to work in a
minute. Nobody likes. Anyone who says they like working in the
administrators state is lying to themselves. It's much better to
be out in the in the free enterprise.
Adam Curry: But you know, you and I are not from this
generation that was raised in in the school system as it is
today. And where that is seen, as you know, that's what your
poli sci degree does. I talked to the Uber driver who picked me
up when he came back from Holland, from San Antonio. And
he's saying, you know, I had like these, like two people. And
they were, I think they when they made me in the EPA, and
they were out scouting for their next meeting in Hill Country.
And he said she had a title that it was so long, I couldn't
remember it, which to me meant she does nothing. And making
$130,000 a year. And this guy's like, this is nonsense. Everyone
sees it. But so if you're making a buck 30 You're like, yeah,
that's pretty good. I got this long title. I'm a dude, I can
wear dresses, whatever, you can do whatever you want. Of course,
that's not everybody. I
John C Dvorak: mean, it's possible that and I do accept, I
do accept you do. I do accept I'm glad you possibility that.
We're out of love with our audience. You know, luckily, we
have an audience as as wide ranging. And so they try to keep
us apprised. But we might be losing some touch with Gen Z,
but you have Gen Z people around you. So you're better off than
Adam Curry: I what I feel from Gen Z is, well, as we discussed,
just not voting, not interested. We're only interested in our own
community, we're going to lift each other up, and we're going
to find cheap places to buy food, and we're going to do our
best we don't care. We've completely lost faith lost
confidence. COVID did that. For sure. For sure. COVID. Like, oh,
these, that there's no, there's no, they're not voting.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I understand that. But we were
talking about them, you know, getting into the administrative
state and thinking it's a good job. I have a clip, you might
realize that but the series, all right, Gen Z. This is a woman
this is clips been going around. This is a Gen Z complainer, and
she's done a series of these clips. This I think is the
initial, the initial one does good, where she's, and you have
to imagine that she's kind of like a dyed red ahead with a rat
kind of a round face. She looks very typical of a certain group
with a giant glasses that are too big for a face that are
part, you know, somewhat stylish and visible.
Adam Curry: Now it's in it's in Gen Z. Eilish
John C Dvorak: in some circles, I think it looks dumb. But hey,
Boomer,
Adam Curry: listen. That's the stuff. That's the style right
now, you and I have
John C Dvorak: I know what it is. I see it, you know, but here
she is complaining.
Unknown: I have two bachelor's degrees. But I'm currently
unemployed. And I'm trying to find a job and I'm not able to
find a job. I feel like if you are not currently looking for a
job right now, in today's job market, then you will not
understand how actually hard it is to find a decent paying job.
Even if you have all the credentials. I have two degrees
I have experienced I have a good resume, I have it all. And I'm
still not able to find anything. And people ask me like what do
you want to do? Like what's your like dream career? What's your
dream job? And honestly, I don't have one. I don't dream of
working. I don't want to work. There's no career or job that I
can think of that I would be like yeah, I would love to do
that every single day and spend more of my time there then in my
home that I pay a crap ton of money for like, No, I don't
dream of working. My dream life. My dream day is to wake up by
the beach or somebody water and drink my coffee and read my
book. Then take an afternoon nap and read my book inside and then
have a nice dinner, get married my dream daily life. But I know
in order to get there, I need some kind of money and Monopoly
money won't work. So that means I have to get a good paying job
but those are not available.
Adam Curry: So then I only have a couple sources. My daughter's
is really the source my stepdaughters my daughter. And
one of my stepdaughters is here with us for a few months, she
has a knee operation and so she's staying with us. And, you
know, she has degree, graduated from University of Arkansas. And
she is in what she calls all of her friends is the blue wave. As
she was doing, you know, fashion photography production in New
York says I hated it, I hated it. She took some time out, went
to bartending school, she loves it works, you know, five days a
week, four days a week sometimes gets tips loves the idea that
tips may not be not be taxed. You know, a sly presidential
promise there from Trump. They call it the blue wave. Like we
don't want this anymore. We're sick and tired of it. It's a rat
race. You know, let me do something in service. There's a
lot of that and I think that is the trend and they do go to the
beach and wake up on the beach and then go work at the bar
until two so I think there's a trend there Okay, yeah. Okay,
kind of switching gears you know, remember there's always an
out for the for the cheating. We love you know, well, how about
them balance, people gotta think of them ballots, as Taraji said,
so what do you need for them ballots to work? Well, you need
solids, you need some kind of lockdown situation with bird flu
is not working that day. Although I did get some boots on
the ground from from multiple people about about Dengue gay.
In Honduras, dengue again the numbers are up Malaysia Dengue
numbers are up, but this is not totally uncommon. No, it's
common. But if you really want to scare somebody, you do what
Colorado does
Unknown: look back public health officials in southern Colorado
are investigating human case of the plague locally. Department
of Public Health and Environment says findings are based on
preliminary test results only. Health officials say the plague
can be transmitted by fleas or wild rodents it can affect
people as well as their pets. They have not specified which
specific form of the plague This case involves but as soon as
more information comes in we'll let you know
Adam Curry: the plague I love the plague the plague it's just
has the great name. Once you got got the plague stay away man And
got the plague. No, I don't think the
John C Dvorak: plague the plague is endemic. Yes. It's been
around forever still is and you still get the plague.
Adam Curry: In 2015. Colorado had the plague is with Colorado
actually in 2015 had the plague as well. And three people died
from the plague. Don't remember freaking out
John C Dvorak: about it then. No, but now we can freak out
about it. Okay, a
Adam Curry: couple other elections before we take our
break. The first one is Iran. We had a run off yesterday and we
have a winner. Here's a profile of Iran's new president
reformists.
Unknown: Massoud possessed Qian is the winner in Iran's
presidential election. Here's what to know about Iran's new
president. A cardiologist by training position is a
relatively low profile figure who served as Iran's Health
Minister between 2001 and 2005 and has represented the city of
Tabriz in the Iranian Parliament's since 2008. During
his presidential campaign possess, John hinted at more
diplomatic engagements with the world vowing to reopen
communication channels with the West to have the years long
sanctions imposed on Iran lifted, although he added that
the US has always shown itself to be an enemy of Iran. He also
has to close his intentions to initiate reforms in both
economic and cultural domains and vigorously defending the
2015 nuclear deal between Iran and various world powers. Given
his progressive outlook, will he be able to put his policies into
practice?
Adam Curry: So this guy seems like he might be better
John C Dvorak: you can only do so much and he is an advocate of
the moolah, so it's not going to be that different.
Adam Curry: Well, he's a guy that his wife has a gynecologist
how can how can they be wrong this guy's got to have something
good going on. In the UK, we have a new a new prime minister
and UK and thank God we have Nigel Farage has a seat. That
means that clips will still be still be abundant, be back in
business very, very happy if we've even found a source for
the PMs question. And you
John C Dvorak: found a source I appreciate that.
Adam Curry: Yeah, it was your your beat is your beat luck.
Question time
John C Dvorak: used to be a regular on this show. We used to
play it because C span would play it and I get a clip or two.
They're always very entertaining. And you get the
ones in Canada or even better, but those are even harder to
come by. But Prime minutes stir question time I will now feature
it won't happen a lot, but it will happen enough that Faraj
will get up there and blow off some steam and the first
Adam Curry: the first order of events has already taken place
as the new and even though it's more ceremonial than anything,
and if you see the numbers by the way, it's something like 60%
of the Brits voted labour because they just wanted the
Tories out. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: and 60% of the ones who voted less than 40% I
think of the total population voted people were just very,
which was predicted by Katie Hopkins and one of the clips we
played some months back that everyone's is apathetic.
Adam Curry: It was 40% who voted labour just to change the
direction of the country didn't mean that they and I think from
the numbers I saw only 5% voted labour because they agree with
Labour's policies.
John C Dvorak: Right? Well, this was like a classic Here you go
Adam Curry: people here's the first thing that's gonna happen
Unknown: to Prime Minister was asked by a British journalist
about the Rwanda scheme, that is the scheme about processing and
sending back people who have come here illegally, across from
France, northern shores of France, and small embarkations
made it to Britain and whoever then would be processed and sent
on deportation flights to Rwanda, it's important to point
out that nobody, except one person who did it voluntarily
has been sent but its cost really millions of pounds
already being paid by the British government to Rwanda. So
what the Prime Minister's was asked is, is it dead and buried
now that you've been elected? Kier, Starmer said and I quote
the scheme was dead and buried before it started. He said that
it never acted as a deterrent. And he pointed in fact, to the
record number of small boat arrivals this year and in
previous years, so a very clear message that that policy very
much wanted, originally wanted by Boris Johnson, the former
prime minister, and very much tried to be carried out by Rishi
Sunak. Can as I said, not watch single person being sent out on
a deportation flight because of all kinds of legal appeals that
is dead and buried and it was never a deterrent says this
Labour Prime Minister kissed on
Adam Curry: just from a perception standpoint, that
people have got to hate this.
John C Dvorak: Hold on a second. This I did not know. I didn't
know that they had sent millions and millions of pounds to Rwanda
to set the such situation up and they never sent anybody there.
So they just threw that money away. Well,
Adam Curry: that's what this guy is saying. Who knows? I don't
know. This is what the reporter lady says, I don't know. But the
whole Britain certainly as far as I know, love the idea of
getting people out because their whole street view has changed.
In Guilford where I used to live, there is there is a Muslim
mayor, which is fine. But then before the city council meeting,
because my my buddy Michelle still lives there. And he's I
fear for his mental health and his physical health even. He
sent me a video of the opening of the Guilford City Council,
the cute little town, little High Street. And so moolah gets
up and starts doing in Guilford. That's not That's not the
culture of Britain or it wasn't that change pretty rapidly. So
to
John C Dvorak: get him to get a Muslim and Mayor in a place like
Guilford, you have to have had a lot of Muslims, you
Adam Curry: start with that and you know, it's just it's a
different culture and it's not in the Brits now for you in the
minority, which they likely even are. So you know, people may
disagree with me, but I'm generalizing that people are not
happy. And it's not like That's London, you know, it's 70 miles
away from London or something like that. Maybe less. It's an
hour it's an hour and 15 minutes by train. Mix the stockbroker.
But
John C Dvorak: that's that's a that's a long way. Now
Sacramento of where I live is about an hour and 15 minutes by
train.
Adam Curry: So in general Europe is okay because we have the
European soccer competition going on right now. The
Netherlands now in the semi final, so people just all loving
it. They're all lawyers or soccer. As long as their soccer
everybody's happy. However, in France, things have have
changed.
John C Dvorak: Well, before you leave Britain, I do have a
couple of things to say. Oh, okay. Which is Starmer who many
think was a mi six.
Adam Curry: Yes. Well, he wasn't he was in charge of the
John C Dvorak: Jimmy Savile investigation investigation,
which which he buried. Yeah. There's a lot of documentation
for that. Add, but is potential for being mi six is when you see
him and his very cute wife. No, I
Adam Curry: have not seen her.
John C Dvorak: Take a look at Starmer and his wife and you
look and you say ah spoke couple. Isn't
Adam Curry: it interesting that the Dutch Prime Minister is also
a former spook and he oversaw many pedophile cases, including
in the Justice Department that were just kind of swept away the
Dominque affair, Rolodex affair, all go all of these things just
kind of so that could be very bad. Who knows? I mean, I don't
want to point fingers at any PDF files. But I'm just saying now I
go to France. And and Marie LePen had a nice sit down. I
like this because she did something that that I've been
tracking for a while. The term far right. Everything in, in
Europe as far right. Far right this far right that far right
here. field as far right. LePen? Far Right. AFD? Far Right. Far
Right. Far. Right. Far. Right. So she sits down, she shuts
down. She sits down. She She watches she shut down. I can't
go. Yeah. But the hardest, the beginning. starts. She sits down
with Christine. I'm on four. And I'm on poor lasered on her and
Christine LePen. Not Christine, Marine LePen pushes back against
the elite globalist news lady, the fact that
Unknown: your party did so well in the European elections, and
so to Georgia Maloney's party, and so did AFD. I mean, you
know, AFD is, you know, a little bit like the former National
Front is very scary. The fact that the far right is becoming a
very, very powerful force in Europe. And who knows, maybe now
with all that's going on in the United States, Donald Trump
might win a second term. How do you see Europe changing the
festival? I strongly dispute the term far right, which in your
country refers to small groups that are extremely radical and
violent? If you like the equivalent? You don't think
you're far right. The equivalent of what we are in the United
States is between the center right and the center left with
regards to ideas. So I think this You're kidding me, right?
Yes. Yes. I'm telling you very honestly, I think this use of
the term far right, carries a stigma, and is very pejorative,
does not correspond to what we are, and not at all to what the
far right is in the United States. That's the first thing
to say. Secondly, we can't put everyone in the same boat. For
example, in Europe, we distanced ourselves from the AfD party,
because we're in total disagreement with a number of
their statements. So together with Mrs. Maloney, and with our
differences to what we call patriots,
Adam Curry: so she pushes back on the far right to and you look
at Arman pores face like You're joking, right? In joking, but
you're having an off. You're joking. You're joking, right?
Yes, it's not true. Right? I mean, you know, everyone knows
that far right? Your far right? Far Right, lady you crazy. She
could not believe it heard the disbelief on that rather bulbous
head of hers was funny. And then she says, hey, look, we're
patriots Oh, trigger word. Please explain.
Unknown: In other words, we defend the existence and the
power of nations within the European Union. And that's
because nations are the expression of the French people.
So say kissoon expression appropriate for say, when the
European Union takes on certain roles without consulting anyone,
it is no longer democratic. We are defenders of nations. We
want a Europe of nations, a Europe that respects the
decisions of the people and not a super technocratic structure,
such as it exists today. And that's the path that we want to
follow. A Europe of nations that's respectful that leaves
projects Europe that doesn't restrict that doesn't threaten,
that doesn't blackmail when it comes to subsidies. Because
that's not our vision. So our Europe is the Europe of adverse.
Forgive me, it's a competitor. It's the Europe. It's not the
Europe of Madame Zombieland. So we will fight within Europe to
redirect Europe in the direction that we want
Adam Curry: to go there you go. Good job, Marie. Good job.
John C Dvorak: She's always been very sensible with her
arguments. Yes, and Emma's poor is just an idiot. And
Adam Curry: with that, I'd like to thank you for your currency
in the morning to you the man who put the sea in the flying
cars say hello to my friend on the other end V one, the only
Mr. John Cena
John C Dvorak: Good morning, Mr. Adam curry. In the morning all
sorts of sleep most of the raffle was in the one in the
dames in the nights out there
Adam Curry: in the morning to the trolls and the troll room
Hello trolls don't worry about not bad, not bad. We had 2347
and we're late in the game. We're at a buck 50 And on the
previous show, which which was 2516 Okay, it was it was 150
More but that was right after the after the debate. I think
this is good. I think we did pretty good here.
John C Dvorak: That was before I like it. Yeah, I remember
normalized numbers normalized from the ballpark? Yes, thank
Adam Curry: you. Thank you trolls, the trolls are here.
They are checked into the system that troll room.io You can
that's just a website, you can do it on your phone, you can do
it on on your desktop, you can do it while you're working. You
can do it at the pool anywhere. You can also use a modern
podcast app and get an alert when it's time to switch on the
bat signal will fly. And you'll know you can find those at
podcast apps.com. And you want to use one of those because when
the hammer comes down, your favorite podcasts are gonna go
away. It's already been happening since 2018, Apple D
platforming Spotify D platforming. So you know, you
want to have something that is backed by the podcast index,
which is has no business model. It's all value for value. It's
true. It's run. It's run by the good graces of people supporting
it with value for value. And, of course, there's lots of benefits
these modern podcast apps, including when we publish, if
you can't listen live, you'll get the notification within 90
seconds. And so you know, that's always a bonus because we
literally are on the modern apps way before any of the legacy
apps it's just the fact because they don't want to participate.
So in fact, that's right. We run value for value here at at the
no agenda show in October, it will be 17 years I was a little
dismayed use you certainly way before me what I have been a
Costco member. Goodness for at least I want to say 14 to 13
years maybe. Yeah
John C Dvorak: longer neck I was a Costco member before they
joined with Price Club. So for the merger, I pre merger Costco
member
Adam Curry: and yeah, we love Costco, you know, except for the
rubber fruit. We love Costco and and the number of people have
pointed out to me that the Costco you know, Costco
connection, which is their magazine, which I read, I read
Costco connection, the guy was going nice for members, it's
membership point thing, you know, they have an article, the
power of podcasting. I mean, where is it the power of
podcasting. And it's like the podcasts have exploded in
popularity since 2004. When the term was first introduced in an
article in The Guardian. Raw statistics.com predicts the
number of podcast listeners worldwide will reach 504 point 9
million this year. Producing podcasts a now 20 year old
format takes planning persistence and vision. Costco
members in the podcast, Costco hits a grind Costco members in
the podcast space share how and why they started and what they
love about the medium until they have all these members of Costco
but missing is jumpseat of where I can Adam curry I find this to
be a canard of epic proportion.
John C Dvorak: I agree and I wouldn't even take myself out of
the picture because you invented it the whole process for all
practical purposes and and genuine purposes for any
purpose. And you think that they track you down because it's not
that hard to figure out where you are how you are where you
enter your
Adam Curry: hand look in the database
John C Dvorak: if you just look it up and there's Adam mcrae.com
I mean doesn't take a genius to figure that out. They have a
card did you get a call
Adam Curry: no nothing that's very disappointing. I think I'm
going to rescind my membership. You've
John C Dvorak: always been saying that well if there this
stuff when I took it across over here you won't take my card I
Adam Curry: quit that's what was it they wouldn't take American
Express no they only it was it was was
John C Dvorak: something that the time they'd only taken me
right they wouldn't take Visa or Master Now they only takes up
mail I don't know what it what it is but they keep changing
Yeah, well
Adam Curry: I receive mad at them. Once you have
John C Dvorak: a debit card that takes out this is basically a
cash card so just use that just
Adam Curry: shows me if there that's
John C Dvorak: where that's where your former wife bought
her first camera.
Adam Curry: I don't remember for that, and believe me yeah Nikon
believe me wasn't hurt during the buying. I
John C Dvorak: remember it. I never got tanked. I'm the one
who recommended the cameras she bought it there wasn't heard
during the night kind of for a while and quickly changed to a
canon. like, Alright, everybody.
Adam Curry: Well, my last and best wife shops at Costco, and
she was very perturbed. She's a podcaster, too, you know?
John C Dvorak: That's true. She's a podcaster.
Adam Curry: Does she get any props? No, no, no, no. Yeah, I
John C Dvorak: think this is very careless, which makes you
wonder the quality of the magazine and people should pitch
How about the Costco magazine saying they overlook the
obvious.
Adam Curry: How about the quality of the food now I
question it. This is rubber rubber.
John C Dvorak: Chicken the chicken is is lost. This is
tough. Everybody's bitching about the chicken? Because they
changed the packaging.
Adam Curry: Yeah, no, that's you because it gets all moist and
John C Dvorak: No, no. Now there's there's articles you can
look. You look it up. Chicken, Chicken shotgun in a bag. It's
no good.
Adam Curry: Anyway, value for value means that we can freely
talk about Costco and talk them down. Because we don't take any
money from corporations. We don't take any Costco. I wonder
if these people have sponsorships? You gotta wonder.
Wonder if they're taught? Hey, you know, I mean, think of all
the times if we had gotten paid, you could have talked about
their great wine. You know, the Easter eggs. I could have talked
about so many different things I've gotten to Costco, which is
probably what these other podcasters do. I'm just
thinking, I don't want to point any fingers. But it could be
some kind of
John C Dvorak: deal. It could be just a quid pro quo. Yeah.
Adam Curry: But what you want is you want people who are honest
and just talk about stuff they like or don't like, whenever
they feel like it. And that's us. That's because we have
decided to not have listeners, we don't want listeners, we want
producers. If you're not a producer, what are you doing? If
you're listening you're not supporting us we're by at least
hitting someone in the mouth getting them to listen,
organizing a meet up, maybe doing some art Whoa, boy do we
love our artists or artists are so on top of everything. They go
to no agenda, art generator.com. All of these pieces of art are
used by Dred Scott in the chapters on those modern podcast
apps. You see how we've built a whole empire out of value for
value. And we thank the one the only comic strip blogger. He
doesn't win often that much that
John C Dvorak: little he's on the list of leaderboards. Yeah,
but
Adam Curry: he hasn't. Ever since he went full AI it kind of
got annoying, because it's always the same. But there was
something about the art that we chose for our July 4 Episode
Episode 1674 titled we're working. There was something
about the dogs bug eyes in this thing. Yeah, that was that was
fun and just made it perfect. And we'd like to do a
traditional piece of art for some of these big holidays. So
obviously we were looking for flags. We were looking for
firewire work and we debated quite some time over let's see
I'm scrolling down here well
John C Dvorak: I liked the Matthew drop co did some great
pieces. Yeah, you'd
Adam Curry: like the cheesecake. It was good cheesecake. Yeah,
that
John C Dvorak: was all it was the same thing it was all AI
there's no although it was well done. I like to particularly
like the redhead.
Adam Curry: Well, we almost chose pickles surprise with
Merkaz birthday.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that was it was close. It was the
Adam Curry: eagle with a hat arm which was funny the flag
John C Dvorak: that I think that's what the runner up is
eagle with the hat. Definitely. And there's because he was
wearing a stupid hat. That
Adam Curry: may be kind of funny. But there was the it was
it wasn't quite. I don't know. You
John C Dvorak: You didn't like that. I liked that piece more
than you did. Because you didn't like to diminish the lack. I
think it was the lack of dimensionality whereas the AI
piece had a lot of it. And and it was also slicker basically.
And there was something about the bug eyed dog was good. Bug.
I don't really discuss how dogs don't like Fourth of July,
Adam Curry: and I also kind of like the sad ice cream girl but
that was not really a story. I was a Darren O'Neal. Something,
John C Dvorak: but it was a Darren O'Neal throw away. Yeah.
Adam Curry: We wanted a happy piece of art and comics are
bloggers. He's a prompt jockey of extraordinary proportions.
John C Dvorak: He's gotten really good at it. He's
Adam Curry: gotten good at it. So we thank the artists, you can
enjoy all of that art. As I said, in the modern podcast apps
and the chapter images. If you're driving using CarPlay or
Android Auto, it'll switch while you're driving. So beware
because you just might veer off the road with laughter because
some of these things are off the hook and not really for public
consumption. But there you go. They're in there. And thank you
again to comments your blogger a fine Dutch master of Poland, of
Polish descent. courroie now to thank the executive and
Associate Executive producers who came in with the tag
treasure of the three T three T's time, talent and treasure

an executive producer. A we you get the credit and we read your
note and we'll kick it off with Wow, a cool $1,000 Is that
Canada Navion dollar seeing it's it's coming from Ontario?
John C Dvorak: I don't think it is. I mean, maybe Sandeep,
Adam Curry: show hon, in Oakville, Ontario and we have
not found a note for San Diego he
John C Dvorak: is going to have to send something and he may be
wanting to be a knight or Well, he certainly certainly qualifies
came that's a stripe donation that came in through stripe and
there's no way of putting a note in easily. So that would be
yellow notes
Adam Curry: at no agenda show.net for your notes and
notes at no agenda show.net and Sandeep, we look forward to
hearing from you and if you want any title or however you'd like
to handle that, in the meantime, a double up karma karma

side and Christian Quaker English, with the realization
that both my sides came to this great country in hopes of
escaping unrelenting religious persecution.
Adam Curry: Hold on a second I often got the penny.

John C Dvorak: I love my job and I love what I do. Oh my gosh.
Can you see that Jews jobs,
Unknown: jobs, jobs and jobs for jobs.
Adam Curry: I finally got it. In context of his note I get the
get the joke there. Then we have arch Duke Dytham from Japan.
Arch Duke Mark Dytham in the house 333 dot 33 long note but
it is the arch Duke so here we go newly anointed arch Duke
Dytham. Here it's my first donation since the prestigious
peerage upgrade. So I want to thank you both and Archduchess
Astrid for your courage and supporting my obsession to this
noblest of titles. No agenda has been an inspiration a friend a
sounding board, but above all, a constant companion since the
first show. Thank you for making continuing to make such a big
difference in all of our lives. It's been a crazy few months for
us in Japan. With new projects finishing and new competition
wins. We always attribute our success to the good karma that
supporting no agenda brings and these Archduke Dytham and arch
Duchess Duke Ducasse what does she do to DO DOOT Duchess such
as dice? No, not Dytham oh my god, she's gonna hate me now.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, she should Astrid, Astrid, de
Adam Curry: master. They are. Their high end architects. They
do stuff for the Emperor family. They do stuff.
John C Dvorak: They do. Yeah, they can do build and beautiful,
Adam Curry: beautiful stuff. Today, Monday, July 8, when the
show airs here. Remember, Japan really isn't the future in more
ways than one will be my daughter Mila is 19th birthday.
So we thought it would be great to have a great occasion to
finally Dame her after securing the title last year in the big
night and Dame drive. She has just finished her first year in
London at Goldsmiths University studying media communications
and is loving every minute of it. And we all want to wish her
even more success and good times in her second year starting this
September. She certainly will learn as much from the curry
Devorah Consulting Group as she does from the media degree. I
hope so. De Mila WE LOVE YOU Big hugs from Max Natasha and mark
for the Daming. I'm sure she would absolutely love to
participate in prosciutto and parmesan at the roundtable. I've
ordered it. We are looking forward to seeing you in the
keeper in October as we tour through Texas. Love from Tokyo,
where we are just emerging from the rainy season heading into a
glorious hot summer, just like any other year. Thank you very
much Archduke Dytham we appreciate you

John C Dvorak: All right, Eli, the coffee guy Bensenville
Illinois. 20707. Gentlemen, the media deconstruction of the last
few episodes has been excellent. I was roasting coffee on the
fourth and listening to this show before barbecuing and
blowing things up. I want to thank you for the dedication to
deliver a great show and the holiday. And thank you all those
out there who listen to and work on the holidays or weekends to
keep things moving. You are all the unsung heroes of the
American Enterprise. I agree. Can I get a patriot karma? Do
you qualify? Do you want quality affordable coffee? This is what
you call a non sequitur. It kind of can I get a patriot karma. Do
you want quality affordable coffee? Do better. Eli is a

Adam Curry: the coffee guy and I can report that the stepdaughter
loves the gigawatt. You know, I've got black rifle here and
Tina has got some kind of she's she switched to decaf a while
back. Oh, yeah. No, she's she's cutting things out of her life.
I'm still here but the caffeinated coffee is gone. But
the stepdaughter man, she loves the gigwalk coffee. Yeah, so I
got a patriot karma for you. You've got
See, that's how it works. You see, I can say I drink black

Executive Producer of the no agenda show our formula
Unknown: is this we go out we get people in the mouth
Adam Curry: NTD I don't typically come in with NTD
clips. That is MTD. MTD. Yes, this is this is normally your
beat. But it is but I came across a piece here, which are
split into a couple of shorter clips. As although I don't know
if NTD will, will give the excuse me, will give this
particular news item the exposure that it needs. But it
is nice to be able to point to peer reviewed studies that prove
the climate change narrative is one big hoax. So
Unknown: Alex, we've been told for a long time that climate
change emergency has settled science, it looks like it's no
longer settled. What happened. While
there's a series of three new peer reviewed papers published
in major prestigious scientific journals just over the last
month or so, and taken together, they completely undermine the
alleged scientific consensus on manmade global warming. One of
them found that about 40% of the observed warming can be
explained away using the urban heat island effect. So to try to
summarize that basically, a lot of these thermometers were put
out there in an open field in a rural area, a city was built up
around it. And so it gets warmer, obviously not because
there's global warming, but because there's a city around
the thermometer, the rest of the warming, they found can be
easily explained using changes in solar activity that NASA has
been tracking meticulously for many decades. And so right now,
these are in the peer reviewed literature. And instead of
responding to this, you've got the climate establishment going
on Twitter and saying these guys are basically poopoo heads and
clowns and deniers. So, you know, at this point, you wonder,
do they have a scientific response? Because if they did,
they would probably write a peer reviewed paper to refute the
ones that just undermined their their claims.
Adam Curry: So that's the headline. And now we can dive a
little bit deeper into this peer reviewed literature. And who's a
part of that? Well,
Unknown: how did they get in Lena, it's hard to get a peer
reviewed, peer reviewed paper when it comes to these topics.
What was the kind of hole in the wall that brought this about so
to speak?
You're right, it is very hard to get any peer reviewed studies in
journals. Because there's there's almost like an iron
wall, blocking this. And we got some insight into this during
the climate gate scandal in 2009, when a bunch of emails
were hacked and leaked to the public, showing a bunch of so
called climate scientists. In fact, some of the leading so
called climate scientists conspiring to hide their data
from other researchers conspiring to hide the decline
in global temperatures, and conspiring to silence any
scientists who wouldn't go along with the narrative. Keep them
out of the journals, keep them out of, you know, TV, media,
interviews, etc. So what happened is these papers were
just really solid, you know, these three journals that
publish them, they're not known for being, you know, climate
denier publications. But the science was very sound. They did
one special issue in the journal climate. For example, they had
some guests editors, including Dr. Ned Nikolov, who I wrote
about back in 2017. They looked at this, they said, Wow, you
know, this is correct, as best as we can tell. So the peers
looked at it, they accepted it. And this is a really prestigious
team. Josh, we're talking about almost 40 scientists from around
the world. The lead author, Dr. Willie Soon, one of the world's
top astrophysicist, if not the top astrophysicist, used to be
at the Harvard Smithsonian, you've got Ronan Connolly. These
are very, very well established, very prestigious, highly
credentialed experts. And it's good to finally see some
alternative viewpoints published in the peer reviewed literature.
I think the dam is finally cracking Josh.
Adam Curry: Yeah, the dam is, yes, the dam is cracking. We
have experts who are now poor, what
Unknown: effect are we seeing now that some pretty credible
people are stepping forward on this?
That's exactly right. And I reached out to a lot of
scientists for my article and the epic times about this and
over and over again, I, you know, I'd love to comment, but I
can't because my funding is going to be jeopardized. My
grant is going to be jeopardized. You know, if I get
associated with saying that these papers are important, I'm
going to be you know, labeled and I won't be able to
participate anymore in scientific do it. So there's
still a very real sense that that's going on. But when you
look at the the scientists behind these papers, for
example, Dr. Willie Soon, these are people who've now moved away
from the major institutions. Dr. Willie Soon ended his time at
Harvard Smithsonian last year, and they're now working
independently so they have an organization called saris.
That's the real issue, right? Any scientist who comes out and
says, hey, the UN is not telling the truth. The federal
government is not telling the truth. After their their grants
are going to dry up. If they're not tenured, they're going to be
at risk of losing their job. But when you take a bunch of
scientists who are completely independent who don't need
federal grants who don't need to participate with the UN, they
have a lot more freedom and I think that's what's going on
here.
Adam Curry: There they go. That will go nowhere, of course, but
at least we heard literally nowhere at least we heard it at
least we have heard it. You heard it here. You can
John C Dvorak: play this stuff till hell freezes over and Mark
is gonna change
Adam Curry: mark it down. Yeah, that's right. Money Talks, Money
talks. So I have some kind of funny AI clips.
John C Dvorak: I have one AI clip. Oh, let's
Adam Curry: go with yours first.
John C Dvorak: Well, my AI clip is disconcerting. It's about the
patents. Here we go.
Adam Curry: China is filing six times more patents and
generative AI inventions than the US that's according to data
from the United Nations. Generative AI produces new
content from existing information. It can be used for
content creation and data analysis. This technology is
growing rapidly. Now China seems to be ahead in terms of the
amount of patent applications, it filed applications for over
38,000 generative AI inventions from 2014 to 2003, the US filed
a little over 6000. Over the same period, Chinese patent
applications range from autonomous driving to publishing
to document management. Among the top applications or
bytedance, the Chinese owned owner of Tiktok plus Microsoft,
which backs the developer of chat GPT, South Korea, Japan and
India were ranked third, fourth and fifth respectively, with
India growing at the fastest rate. Now, are these patterns
are these global patterns that follow? That must be apple?
Yeah. Yeah. So that seems like there's still a lot of
litigation ahead in the AI to AI
John C Dvorak: will invest in lawyers? Yes. Oh,
Adam Curry: my goodness, this is gonna go nowhere. So I have to
have two clips. The first one is kind of is a throwback. This is
five years ago, when Sam Altman, who already then just had that
annoying cadence, that annoying explanation for things was at
the strictly VC conference. And of course, he had already raised
a lot of money for open AI, which at the time, I think might
have already transitioned to a for profit company, or at least
part of it. And so you have this typical, it's, it's on YouTube,
typical VC partner, Lady girl, who's asking the questions. And
I just thought it was interesting, how he explained
how they thought they would get a return on the investment for
the investors. Which to date, I think the last numbers we heard,
which we parlayed from CNBC was $50 billion dollars has gone in,
and about three has come out so far. So yeah, seems
John C Dvorak: like yeah, good luck in your money.
Adam Curry: I'll even just get 100 billion invested, then we'll
get the money.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, more. That's the old joke. You know,
the guy said, Get driving around his watermelon trucks, and he's
selling these watermelons. And he says, he sells them for two
bucks apiece. And he drives around and he says, What are you
doing on the watermelon business? Well, I'm losing $1 On
every watermelon losing, like $100. And every load he says,
Oh, well, how are you gonna fix that? I said, I'm gonna get more
trucks.
Adam Curry: We'll make it up in volume. Alright, so here's all
you know,
Unknown: Google has business units, and it's got objectives.
And it just seems like
open air is so sort of amorphous, but it is a business.
So I'm just wondering,
Adam Curry: oh, I just love terms like this. Oh, it's just
we're really amorphous. What does that even mean? What is a
morphus? Beat
John C Dvorak: anything? This is a VC talk
Adam Curry: VC gobbledygook. We're very, we're starting
John C Dvorak: in Bo Jumbo.
Adam Curry: We're an amorphous startup. Yeah, that's weird.
Yes, mumbo jumbo,
Unknown: open air is so sort of amorphous, but it is a business.
So I'm just wondering, like, eventually is the idea to kind
of like, licensed technologies, will you have customers, you're
gonna be customizing algorithms for
them? Or how is it gonna work? You know, the honest answer is
we have no idea. We we have never made any revenue. We have
no current plans to make revenue. We have no idea how we
may one day generate revenue. We have made a soft promise to
investors that once we build this sort of generally
intelligent system, basically, we will ask it to figure out a
way to generate an investment return for you. It sounds like
an episode of Silicon Valley. It really does. I get it I you can
laugh. It's all right. But it is what I actually believe is going
to happen. So Oh, there aren't many things like this where
they're so difficult to reason about and so powerful that if
you can build it, like, you know, there's that joke that I
actually think is very funny, which is like, step one is do
this thing. Step two is do this thing. Question mark, question
mark, question mark profit. But like, you know, I think if AGI
is on the table, that's actually okay. And if we have to take
like, you know, 1/1000 of 1% of the value that we create, and
returned to investors, and then figure out how to share the rest
sort of equally among the world that Attfield that feels okay.
Yeah,
Adam Curry: well, that's what he's doing. 50 billion in 3
billion out he's keeping to His promises. Good luck investors.
So then comes the news that of Moshi moshi. Have you heard of
Moshe Moshe
John C Dvorak: No I have not
Adam Curry: so Moshe Moshe. Now France has their own AI large
language model Mistral, in which actually it's open source
actually use the mistral model at home for what is useful for
you know, when I when I need to write Project 2026. I'll use the
mistral model. So there's another company in France, and
they have developed Moshe Moshe is $300 million very modest
investment in this company. Only $300 million. Holy crap. $300
million.
John C Dvorak: That's a lot of money. Yeah, that's considered
modest, which is ludicrous. So
Adam Curry: the one thing that open aI had was that demo. And
of course, you know, we also which was folded up because of
the latency was chopped out the latency. It was obviously
predetermined, like, oh, wow, it looks like you're going to do a
presentation of some sort with these professional cameras, are
you you're you're rocking an AI hoodie is an open AI
demonstration. Wow, this thing is genius. It's multimodal. So,
but the demo was reasonable. You know, most of these demos really
suck in the Microsoft did their demo, which they then had to
later no a Google did their demo, which they later had to
admit of Gemini that they had cut out, you know, seconds and
seconds of latency. So the French come out, they come out
with Moshe Moshe and they give it to the France 24 technology
editor. You will not believe this demo
Unknown: Frances answer to the AI revolution to the big step
this week with the release of Moshe a voice bot which responds
with unnerving speed and emotion now to test it out. I can
welcome onset Peter O'Brien.
Adam Curry: I mean this is already with the setup is great.
It's a we are going against open AI Francis better view but of
course we have a false we have a better, better for cheaper
Unknown: here. Introduce us to Moshe, hi Allison. So Moshe is
the product of a nonprofits Q tie, which was founded in
November by three billionaires. Some of you have heard of Saudi
and Eric Schmidt's formerly of Google. Now it's really one of
France's two big hopes when it comes to AI. The other one is
Mr. Al, the startup that's raised about six has been valued
about 6 billion euros since it was founded last April. Now
there's less pressure on queue tight. So it's a nonprofit, and
it has a more meager, shall we say, budget of 300 million
euros, but they have set themselves a high standard and a
big task, which is to they say, create artificial general
intelligence. That's AI that's meant to theoretically at least
be smarter than a human being. Now, we talked to the CEO
Patrick Perez a few months ago, and he said that the way they
were going to do this was by really focusing on something
called multimodal AI, that's ais that can do many different
things at once. And we've just got the first proofs have their
labor out this week, which is mostly a research prototype that
is you can talk to it's a it's a voice bot. I've been having a
few different conversations with it, take a listen to a snippet
of one of them. Okay,
Adam Curry: so that's the setup. It's multimodal, which by the
way, I think you and I are both multimodal, it's amazing how
multimodal we're sure what that means. It means you can
understand video and pictures and texts and an audio we're
multimodal
John C Dvorak: so Oh, you mean like normal people?
Adam Curry: Yes, like people. So he sets it up. Now what you see
on screen looks like how 2000
John C Dvorak: Yeah, of course, you want.
Adam Curry: You will not believe the demo that this 300 meager
$300 million company allowed them to show on France. 24
Standby.
Unknown: Is your friend. I don't remember his name. I don't
remember who it was. But he said that his roommate was Joe Biden.
And he said, I think he said he was eating ice cream before he
went to bed.
Ah, that sounds a lot like Joe Biden. He loves ice cream.
Yeah, I think he was saying that he was eating ice cream before
he went to bed. And then he went into the room. And there was a
girl there. Oh, yeah. Eating ice cream and they started making
Adam Curry: the girl started making it with Joe Biden. I
think that's what it was. Are you kidding me?
John C Dvorak: So that female voice was the AI? Yeah, yes. But
what was it talking about
Adam Curry: that that it was talking about? This guy's friend
who was roommate was Joe Biden and Joe Biden was eating an ice
cream and then a girl came in not woman a girl came in eating
ice cream. And then Joe Biden and the girls started making
out.
John C Dvorak: So the demonstration was of a
hallucination. Yes. To say the least a pedophile hallucination
and a pet. Well, they get at least we're getting some of it
right.
Adam Curry: Man Oh, man. I was like, that's your demo.
John C Dvorak: That's pretty pretty pathetic. is
Adam Curry: unbelievable.
John C Dvorak: That was that was actually on TV.
Adam Curry: That was on TV. Yes.
John C Dvorak: I was just gonna go on any further they cut it
off or what happened?
Adam Curry: It wasn't funny after that. That was the
funniest bit. Yeah, they were like, Oh, well, Joe Biden. Yeah,
he always eats ice cream and makes out with girls. What in
the world is happening with AI? Although it's probably the most
John C Dvorak: accurate has to do with the input, the most
accurate AI, very accurate AI.
Adam Curry: Then, of course, they're finally catching on a
little bit about the issues with AI. Here's the BBC, you'll
Unknown: hear a lot about AI or artificial intelligence and its
possible impact. Now, it seems that the global greenhouse gas
emissions of the US technology giant Google were nearly 50%,
higher last year than in 2019. That's because of the increasing
amounts of energy needed by its computer servers, fueled by the
explosive growth of artificial intelligence. This will make
achieving so called net zero emissions by 2030. significantly
more difficult.
Adam Curry: So this is a narrative that's going on in in
Europe in the UK that is very annoying to Google. So they sent
out one of their I think she's a scholar Amanda Smith. You know,
Amanda Smith used to work at Google.
John C Dvorak: Amanda Smith, the name rings a bell, but I don't
know that I could say, well, she
Adam Curry: tries to combat the narrative, Google's greenhouse
gas emissions are skyrocketing.
Unknown: Yeah, so three years ago, Google set an ambitious
plan to address climate change by going net zero by 2030. But
its latest environmental report shows it's nowhere near to
meeting those goals. Google's emissions surged 48% Compared to
2019, and increased 13%. Year over year in 2023. The tech
giant says it's because of the energy needed by its data
centers, exacerbated by the growth of artificial
intelligence, and that its net zero emissions goals are now
quote, extremely ambitious. Google's report also reveals
large global disparities in the impacts of its data centers,
most of the ones in Europe and the Americas, for example, get
the majority of their energy from carbon free sources, unlike
centers in the Middle East Asia and Australia. Tech companies
also make the case that AI is not just a negative force when
it comes to climate change. But it is also helping to address
it, take a listen to this expert, we
have to understand that if we are using more energy to do
something, that energy we want to push for it to come from
renewable and low carbon sources as much as possible. But we also
have to ask the question, what's the benefit we're getting from
the status center or from this use of AI? Is it benefiting
humanity? Is it making our lives better? Is it making our society
more equitable? So it's just important to understand AI can
be a force that increases emissions and AI can be a force
that decreases emissions. It's up to us as humans we're doing
it with it stay
with the theme of emissions general motors that are facing a
pretty hefty fine
Adam Curry: that's right federal official it should have been on
that. So yeah, so they're they're saying well, but you
know, the benefits of AI will far outweigh the killing of the
earth and using of Our resource this is from the same company
that installs a thermostat in your house that turns down your
air conditioner or your heat to save the world yet they're
blowing up the world so called with their data centers.
John C Dvorak: This has become like the people who bitch about
climate change and then they jump in their private jets.
Adam Curry: It's YES only on a much, much larger scale. Yes,
much larger scale.
John C Dvorak: That yeah, they put themselves in a bind with
this. Yeah, there are big shots. Oh, we're gonna stop. We're
gonna have a zero emissions, neutral, blah, blah blah by
2013. And they Jump on the AI bandwagon it just sucks up juice
like there's no tomorrow and no what are the benefits? We do?
Like we get artists now that can do AI art and Okay, well that's
yeah.
Adam Curry: And we will getting better. I mean, we know that Joe
Biden eats ice cream and makes out with girls.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, we had that part. We knew that already.
Adam Curry: Didn't need to burn all that fossil fuel for that.
Here this is a I have a little series of clips here. This is
regarding we still have a couple of wars going on looks no one
seems to talk about because you know, Kamala Harris Biden, Trump
the AI what are the you know, people young people are dying,
dying on the Russian side dying on the Ukrainian side? Just
dying hundreds of 1000s Not a single video really? Do you see
of that? I mean, I get it from from military sources. And they
they'll send me like a signal or telegram. It's gruesome. It's so
gruesome. See these young people just dead? Dead dismembered?
Yeah,
John C Dvorak: they're killing out the gene pool of the
Ukrainian men.
Adam Curry: But you don't see that? You know, there's no
reality of war in the mainstream media. No reality they should
really? They should. If you want to end it, do stuff like that.
Or if you want to end it, how about making peace? Well, that's
exactly what Viktor Orban. Oh my goodness, he's the trump of
Europe. Viktor Orban, the president of Hungary, who now
assumes the presidency of the European Council, he went I
what? He went to have a chat with Putin. Oh no.
Unknown: The Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has met
with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on the heels of
Orman's trip to Ukraine. Putin received Orban at the Kremlin,
and said he was ready to discuss so called nurses of peace
proposals to end his war in Ukraine. Hungary just took over
the US rotating presidency and the visit is being heavily
criticized by EU leaders who say Obama has no mandate to speak
for the block or have been critical of the EU.
John C Dvorak: So me well, Van der Leyen who is when she was
running the show, which still she's still queen. Yes, she is
floating around doing all kinds of stuff without a mandate.
Yeah,
Adam Curry: including actual mandating of vaccinations. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: and doing deals with Pfizer and spending money
that she didn't wasn't allowed to do. But disk, okay. And I
just thought I'd throw that in. Make sure that we remember that.
So
Adam Curry: the reporter that's about to come in, it doesn't
come across quite as good. This is Deutsche Avella doesn't come
in quite as good. But she has a sneering eye rolling kind of,
you know, the kind that I'm talking about your
Unknown: body. Oban has no mandate to speak for the block
or ban has been critical of the EU for its reluctance to
pressure Ukraine into negotiations with Russia, while
President Putin and Prime Minister Orban have just
addressed a joint press conference and our correspondent
Emily Sherman and Riga has been keeping a close eye on
Adam Curry: Riga for some reason. I don't know what that
has to do with anything but she's in Riga. Emily,
Unknown: what did the two leaders say?
Well, there was seems that there was a real focus on in their
talks on Ukraine and on Ukraine potential peace process there.
Putin for repeated his claim that Russia has and has always
been and still is open for diplomatic negotiations to end
fighting. He portrayed Ukraine as the stumbling block there.
And as he called them, Ukraine's Western sponsors, who he blamed
for basically locking the peace. Of course, this is rhetoric that
we've heard from Putin before. And when it comes to Obama, he
was firmly positioning himself as a potential immediate
intermediary for the Ukraine conflict. He said that there's
hardly any leaders nowadays who are able to talk to both sides
in the conflict, both Russia and Ukraine, and today with his
visit to Moscow, he was portraying himself as one of
those very few leaders as he said,
Adam Curry: Oh, yes. Oh, I roll smirk air quotes Oh, no. So, it
so what happened is, this was France 24 Deutsche btw Deutsche
Bella the course so what he did is he got a reasonably regular
plane I think a seven it looked like a 737 any any flew first to
meet was a Lensky. And then he did some trickery so that he
could fly out of there and then flew over Poland and then, you
know, he did a U turn. And then he went to Moscow and before
anyone knew that he was already landing in Moscow. He didn't he
had You know, there's he had to do this all this, this covert
stuff to get over there. And on the plane, yeah, and this is
just a regular plane is in the plane. There's like a, like a
YouTuber dude or a podcaster, who literally has one of those
road wireless mics, you know, kind of the big square ones.
Yeah, on a Stick. Stick. And he's in there interviewing or
Bong, and it's like a 30 minute interview. And I had to pull a
couple of clips, pretty creative, very creative. And he
starts off by saying, Well, why why are you doing this to make
Unknown: peace is a Christian action. It's a Christian
attitude based action. Because if you would like to approach to
peace on a political way, you strive to become more and more
bureaucratic. What kind of negotiation or authority you
have, what the council will say about the high for impulse
representation of counsel, we say Mr. Birrell, how to you
know, so it's getting more and more complicated. So if people
would like to behave, motivated by moral points and pitch the
moral issue. So you have to prepare yourself spiritually. So
that's what I have done to make a decision, knowing that bad
reaction will come from the vast and process whatsoever. But
being convinced that this is the only way. And this is the duty I
have to do now, because I remain the only western leader. I'm the
only investor leader now, who can have a chance to talk at the
same time it Kyiv and Moscow, all the others who've created a
situation when they have no chance to die to communicate
with the two main actors, especially with the Russians.
Adam Curry: So here's this horrible, horrible guy who
invokes the God card like Blessed are the peacemakers like
oh, I didn't know I gotta go make some peace. I'm uniquely
positioned to do this. So our roving reporter with his mic on
a stick has three questions. So
Unknown: my first purpose was to put the questions directly three
questions, basically, the first president, what do you think
about the peace plans, which are already on the table? You know,
what the, what the Ukrainian assassin king what America
starts thinking? What shouldn't have global peace meeting clip?
What is your position on
Adam Curry: this guy just like, hey, Putin? What's your position
on that? What do you think? I mean, you know what everyone
else thinks this is so normal, such a normal kind of good thing
to do. And
Unknown: what is your position on the Chinese proposal as well?
You know, and what do you think about the frame and the process,
how these peace talks are going God and you are not invited? So
what do you think about it? So that was the first to get to
know to clarify what is his understanding of his editor,
it's obvious that real negotiations cannot happen
without the involvement of both parties. So whatever they are
doing without him, it means nothing, which is quite logical.
Anyway, the second he was very clear that they have already
reacted to the first cranium position and proposal, which
happened 2022 April. And what the reaction was, in a, in a
document of the Russians today, is still relevant. So on that
basis, they are still ready to communicate and negotiate and so
on, on the Chinese plan, Chinese Brazilian plan, he said that
they consider everything given that was, so that was the first.
Adam Curry: So the 2022 agreement that Boris Johnson
went into stop is still on the table. That I think that's kind
of interesting to know.
John C Dvorak: So this is the podcast, you're talking
Adam Curry: now. That's our bond talking. That's that's Orban.
He's I misstated. He's the one that asked Putin three
questions. And he's, he's telling us what, what really
went down. All Deutsch of Allah gives us, you know, represented
doo doo. So, now he continues with the other answers to his
questions for Putin.
Unknown: My second question was president. What how do you see
the chance to have a short limited piece prior sci fi
earlier than the real negotiations on peace can start?
And he said he's not optimistic on that. He's Zelensky said that
he's not optimistic because the Russians would use it against
the Ukrainians. Putin said that the Ukrainians would use it
against Russia.
And what did you say to him?
I said, let's consider I understand your argument. But
think about it. Everyday is important. because we are under
the pressure of the time because the dying young people, but at
least think about it don't Don't, don't throw it away. Just
think about it next time we can continue. And the third question
was I raise the President, do you have a vision? Or even a
plan? How will the security architecture of Europe look like
when the war is over? So not just to concentrate on today,
but how the future, which could be the surrounding and
arrangement for one or two generations of our kids, and
grandkids? So what is your planet said, we have a detailed
plan. So we know how we imagined the relationship between Russia
and European Union and the West, and how we should set it up.
It's too early to speak about it. But they are ready to do
that on that.
Adam Curry: So the final clip, is he's going to say, look, this
is what I achieved. And it seems like Putin may even be open to
some NATO expansion or some changes.
Unknown: I mean, your mission this week is a case study in
surprise. I mean, you have totally wrong footed the
European Union. Some of your colleagues have twittered. They
have commented on that there was a huge reaction in the media.
What is your essential takeaway from these two meetings? Are we
closer to peace? What is your assessment of the results of
these two meetings? That's
first reaction on the comments. So guys, I understand that you
are not used to that kind of behavior of the rotating
President of the European Union. But if we consider this issue,
from a bureaucratic eyeglass, and bureaucratic approach,
nothing will happen. Because peace cannot be generated by
bureaucrats. It's impossible. Okay, bureaucrats are useful.
They have to work Hi representative, head of the
commission, and so on European institution, bureaucratic of
good, but it's not enough to reverse you have to understand
that piece. We are not born by itself, be something which must
be done. Many people have to work for it. And only if you
don't do that, there'll be no peace. If you'd like to change
the bet for good, we have to do something, this is the first and
then we realize that we have to do something, it cannot be
bureaucratic. It must be political, because only
political leaders can manage to find a way to short persuade to
the piece. So what is the first step? First step is reopen the
diplomatic relationship and reopen the communication
channel. That's happened today. I
Adam Curry: think this guy can get something done if they don't
kill him.
John C Dvorak: Well, he's obviously aware of the problems
with him getting killed, or he wouldn't have taken that
circumvention tour to Poland to get his jet into Russia. Yep. So
he's not an idiot. Well, interesting. What to make of
that but okay,
Adam Curry: well, I think what we make of it is that the media
and the bureaucracy as he says, don't want peace, they want war.
They just want to continue war.
John C Dvorak: And the media likes war. It's you know, self
scrapers, ratings, rating, and there's they even though they're
not taking advantage of full advantage of it, so there's not
even milking it as well as they could. So that's makes you
wonder what's wrong with them, like idiots.
Adam Curry: They're humans like throwing money away, you know
who their overlords are.
John C Dvorak: And so the so the only people really benefiting
isn't even the media is is them arms makers.
Adam Curry: And Deutsche Avella uncloaked. A little bit about
some this is short about something we already knew, of
course, what is really at play here. Russia's
Unknown: war on Ukraine has raged on now for over two years,
and the cost of both sides have been immense. One of the
possible spoils however, a victory could also be what is in
the ground. Ukraine has huge deposits of lithium, that's an
important metal for batteries that power electric cars or
smartphone fighting near
Adam Curry: the Ukrainian village of Kota hobo earlier
this year, above the ground towns that have seen dozens of
tank battles since the war began. What you don't see is the
hundreds of millions of dollars of lithium, that geologists say
it's likely underground Ukraine has significant deposits of
natural resources that could make Russia's war financially
pay off. In addition to lithium, there are significant oil, gas
metal ores, rare earth and precious metals buried beneath
the soil, potentially worth more than $20 trillion 20 trillion.
Well, I
John C Dvorak: find that hard number hard to believe but it if
there's housing and all the rest on top it's probably a good idea
to have a ward that way you wipe out the housing without having
to bring in the bulldozers and and you without having to to
evict people you know you have to move sort of because we can
there's a lithium mine right under you that by the way you're
part owner of because you owned the mineral rights property in
many countries and Well too bad you're been killed. I just
Adam Curry: love how they make it look like that's what Putin
is after putting and go gets from China. It's what you're
after. The European Union is after the Western nations the
Western alliance NATO they're after that they already took all
the farmland it's like come on.
John C Dvorak: But then we needed more than Russia does.
Yeah, they're not showing the dead the dead Russia is not like
a big lithium operation need to show where the dead
Adam Curry: kids on TV that'll get people thinking. Start to
dry. Yeah, and the lone shoe and rebel. Now that's the best.
Yeah. Isn't rebel shoe and mud. shoe and rubble and mud? Yeah.
Preferably with a footstool in it that people. Hey, did you
hear the latest side effects of Wigo V and ozempic and other
weight loss drugs GLP. One drugs soon to be on Medicare Did you
hear makes you blind
Unknown: weight loss drugs ozempic. And we'll go V are
being linked to a rare form of blindness. A new study found
patients taking those drugs at a higher risk of developing the
condition which is caused by a loss of blood flow to the optic
nerve. But scientists say more research is needed to determine
if the drugs actually cause the eye condition. The drugs makers
as patients safety is a top priority and it's taking the
study seriously.
Adam Curry: Oh yeah, we're all over it. So this This condition
is called non which you spell na i o n nine, nine, I can't really
pronounce it nine. And here's a little longer explanation of
what could happen to you medical loss.
Unknown: Today a new study finds some popular weight loss and
diabetes drugs may lead to a condition that causes a form of
blindness.
That condition is known as non it's a type of eye stroke that
causes sudden painless vision loss in one eye study published.
Adam Curry: I like that. It's painless, though. Don't worry,
it's sudden, but it's painless,
Unknown: painless vision loss. In one eye study published in
the medical journal JAMA ophthalmology found non and some
patients taking semaglutide medications like ozempic and
mugabi. The drugs are prescribed to treat diabetes and help
weight loss studies showed people with diabetes are four
times more likely to be at no be diagnosed with non if they're
taking a prescription. semaglutide overweight or obese
people take the medication are seven times more likely to
experience the condition. Non is rare occurring and just 10 out
of 100,000 people but don't worry, it's
Adam Curry: painless. So there's
John C Dvorak: one out of 10,000 is another way of putting it.
Adam Curry: I don't want to be one.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I said numbers. Yeah, it's risky. It's
very
Adam Curry: risky. Nobody wants that. Do you have anything else?
Yeah, I
John C Dvorak: wanted a couple of loads just to see this some
international stuff. I thought this was weird. This is the the
what's going on in Greece, the 48 hour workweek it's goes
against everybody's trends.
Adam Curry: Oh, here it is. Yes, I heard about this to
Unknown: Greece has implemented a six day working week and a
move to enhance productivity and employment.
The regulation was enacted on July 1 defies the global trend
of companies considering a shorter work week,
employees of private businesses offering 24/7 services will have
the option to work an extra two hours per day or an extra eight
hour shift. This is
according to new legislation passed last year as part of
broader labor laws.
Adam Curry: Now, I heard about this and I thought is that bad
thing? And is Greece trying to act literally work
John C Dvorak: to get it together is what they're trying
to do. And it turns out that their lack of productivity can
be corrected a bit sound making people work more?
Adam Curry: Yes. Sounds like a good idea to me. Hey, we all got
it when you're
John C Dvorak: going in the other direction. You're a
socialist communist. Because you're working less 30 hours a
week. Yeah.
Adam Curry: For days or days. Wake up and go to the beach.
Read my book. Yes.
John C Dvorak: Beach, read your book, drink your coffee, read
your book and then bitch and moan. Yeah, perfect. The other
thing is Duke Foley sent me a clip from Tik Tok clip, of
course, but these these people should go back and get copies of
the hot shots movies from the 90s where you had this guy
President bench bench was that was
Adam Curry: that with Charlie Sheen? Was he in hot shots?
John C Dvorak: I don't know he might have been but the guy who
played the president was was the the old droid bridge bridges?
Yeah, yeah Lloyd Bridges played a Biden know even this clip and
you can get some Biden out of it. This is the President Benson
clip and it just said when you I have to get these via black
shade now have a copy of the
Adam Curry: Charlie Sheen was in it. I was right.
John C Dvorak: What was he Okay, well, these were the wood part
of that this was during that era of airplane and all these crazy
movies that were all satirical and funny. And this clip is got
disguised as it is Biden.
Unknown: Do you remember those early 90s comedy movies, hot
shots and hot shots? Part two? It's uncanny but the admiral and
then later the President Benson is like a prediction of Joe
Biden. Check them out.
What if Edwards gets wind of this we'll use it against you in
the campaign. He'll try to prove that you're incompetent

Adam Curry: Duke Foley brings the heat and I have to say
without a doubt. Perfect, perfect. That's him. People
should
John C Dvorak: dig those movies up and get a kick out. I predict
those type of movies are really missed. They're missed.
Adam Curry: It was predictive programming, too. A little too
early. But it was there. Yeah, I'd say it was there. Well, that

John C Dvorak: cost and I had a great Costco tip too. Oh Well
too bad Costco
Adam Curry: boys. You screwed it up.
John C Dvorak: So there's a product I recommend I want you
know, I've taught recommend over the years these different kinds
of high end usually synthetic lubricants and ranch hand.
Adam Curry: Yes, ranch hand was always a fabulous
John C Dvorak: product as a couple other spray ones. The
problem is ranch and I'll tell you right now as you like if you
spray on a door jamb or something, and just a, just a
miniscule amount gets on the floor.
Adam Curry: Oh, you'll kill your Yeah, you're slipping and
sliding forever.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, and you can't wash it off. It's
unbelievable. But I do have another product that's a little
more direct and it's sold as a clock. Clock lubricant, but it's
useful for especially for key holes and door hinges and pretty
much anything that needs lubrication, always use WD 40
For that, Nah, don't use WD 40. That's liquid bearing, it's on.
It's a cot it's at Costco, it's on Amazon. It's called Liquid
bearing. And it's for it's for grandfather clocks, but it's
really for everything is one of these super slippery synthetic
oils but it comes into a bottle that has a little like a needle
on the end and you can put just one drop somewhere
Adam Curry: Oh bearing AR ing liquid and bury a
John C Dvorak: bearing like the ball bearing oh okay bearing and
it is it's expensive at 18 bucks but it is it lasts I've had this
bottle for 10 years that lasts forever because you don't use
much with the ranch and you spray it all or you waste a lot
of it. This is a terrific product I recommend people
should check it out. It's called Liquid bearing. It's about 18
bucks.
Adam Curry: Nothing like a lubricant. Tip of the Day from
Johnson.
