You are in a horrible mood today.
Adam Curry, John C.
Dvorak.
It's Sunday, April 27, 2025.
This is your award-winning give-on-Asian
-media assassination episode 1759.
This is no agenda.
Vibe coding and broadcasting live from the heart
of a Texas hill country right here in
FEMA region number 6.
In the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where they want
to round up the judges.
I'm John C.
Dvorak.
It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.
In the morning.
Yeah, best, funniest thing ever.
Funniest thing ever.
Rounding up the judges.
Oh no.
It's a constitutional crisis.
I love it.
I have a clip.
Do you have any clips of that?
I got plenty of clips.
Well, first I need to tell you, I
don't know if you've been following the news,
but there's been quite the setback in peace
negotiations.
This is just breaking.
You're talking about this morning.
Breaking big setback in peace negotiations.
Yeah.
Between myself and Andrew Horowitz.
Oh.
He called me Saturday night.
No.
Yeah, Saturday night.
And you hung up on him.
He drunk called me.
Oh, that's not good.
From a party.
He had a party with friends.
He has these huge parties.
I can see that.
Hey, man.
Here's someone who wants to talk to you.
And he puts me on with, you know,
granted, a no agenda producer.
I can't believe I'm talking to you.
You saved me during COVID.
I'm like, oh, that's very nice of you
to say.
I'm like, so did Andrew just sit there
and go like, oh, I can call Currie
whenever I want.
She said, yeah, pretty much.
That's a funny idea.
Yes, I can get a hold of the
big boy.
I can talk to that man whenever I
want.
I have his number on speed dial.
Yes, you've seen him on Joe Rogan.
I've got him right here.
Let me call him for you.
He always takes my call.
So he pulled a Biden.
A Biden?
Yes, what Hunter Biden used to do all
the time.
Oh, Hunter Biden, yes.
But wait a minute.
Then I'm Joe Biden in that case.
I don't think that's very good.
Yes, that's what I'm thinking.
I don't like that so much.
Joe Biden.
So looks like things are not over yet.
Not over.
Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.
Well, at least the producer got to talk
to you.
Yeah, she was very nice.
But, you know, still, I mean, and I
even say, Andrew, are you calling?
Are you just, are you drunk?
He said, yeah.
It should have been a Saturday night is
not a time to call.
I should have recorded it.
That was my bad.
Yeah, exactly.
I should have done that.
But then he'd have been really irked.
You know, this is, and then we'll get
to the judges.
So I had this Robert, Sarah Pope pick
in mind.
You know, even when the Pope got sick,
I was already looking around.
And that was the first guy that came
to mind.
So I pick him on the last episode
as kind of a long shot.
But, you know, it's like, I think this
is the guy.
And now, have you seen this?
He's gone viral.
He's become the anti-globalist faithful's favorite new
Pope.
There's articles about him everywhere all of a
sudden.
You know, people listen to our show.
At the Gateway Pundit?
Maybe.
At the Telegraph?
Anyone's going to listen to them.
Cardinal Robert Sarafgini is exactly the kind of
anti-woke Pope that many conservatives...
That means the likelihood of him getting it
is less.
It's just less.
In fact, I have some Pope...
Well, let's start with that stuff.
I got some Pope analysis.
All right.
Let's start with...
You're a little low on volume today.
I'm going to crank you up.
Boost me.
Boost, boost, boost.
You're boosted.
Consider yourself boosted.
All right.
Let's start with just the plain clips, which
would be PayPal event and Trump report.
PBS.
Before paying his respects at the coffin, President
Trump sat down with Ukraine's President Zelensky for
the first time since their rancorous confrontation in
the Oval Office two months ago.
Trump reportedly pressured Zelensky to accept a plan
in which Ukraine will formally surrender territory occupied
by Russia, including the Crimean Peninsula, as well
as granting the United States an enormous stake
in Ukraine's mineral wealth.
As far as the White House is concerned,
this is the only feasible deal.
On the ex-social media platform, Zelensky described
the meeting as very symbolic and potentially historic.
Thanking Trump, he said he was hoping for
results on everything covered in their discussions, protecting
the lives of Ukrainians, a full and unconditional
ceasefire, and a reliable and lasting peace that
would prevent another war from breaking out.
But in a post on his Truth Social
network, President Trump launched a broadside against Russia's
Vladimir Putin.
He said there was no reason to shoot
missiles into civilian areas.
It makes me think, he said, that maybe
Putin doesn't want to stop the war and
is just tapping me along.
When Trump emerged into St. Peter's Square, he
was met with silence.
The contrast with Zelensky's appearance could not have
been greater.
Warm applause greeted the Ukrainian president as he
took his seat.
And then the grand ceremony began in earnest,
with the coffin carried from the Basilica into
the Square.
The congregation was addressed by 91-year-old
Italian Cardinal Giovanni Battista Rea.
In this majestic St. Peter's Square, where Pope
Francis celebrated the Eucharist so many times and
presided over great gatherings over the past 12
years, we are gathered with sad hearts in
prayer around his mortal remains.
I was reminded by our resident Catholic Void
Zero, it is pronounced Sarah.
Sarah.
Not Sarah.
Okay, Sarah, Sarah.
Pope Sarah, Sarah.
So, there's one thing in that clip, and
everybody reporting on this said...
About the applause for Zelensky and no applause
for Trump.
No, actually that was only reported by PBS.
Of course.
Everybody reported on Trump's post and without question
they said, I think he's tapping me along.
Tapping me?
Was that in the post?
Tapping me along?
Yeah, it's in the post.
Everybody read it.
It's in that clip.
What does that even mean?
And no one's questioning it.
It's like, what phrase...
Where does this come from?
Is that code for something we don't know
about?
Maybe it's something he told...
Don't worry, Putin, when I use the word
tapping, we're not tapping out.
Hmm.
I just found it peculiar that nobody and
you included right now...
Well, I thought it was a British thing.
Why would Trump be using a Britishism?
I don't know.
Tapping.
Because the...
What would the phrase be?
It would be dragging me along?
Tap...
Stringing.
Stringing, that's it.
Stringing me along.
Well, ChatGPT doesn't know it.
ChatGPT says, what is that, a song?
Tapping me along.
Interesting.
And everybody read it without question.
Without question, yeah.
Without wondering what the hell it means or
why he said tapping.
It's like covfefe.
It's a blurt.
It's a mini-blurt.
It's a blurtlet.
Well, it didn't work because I'm the only
one who seems to have caught it.
Tapping me along.
So, let's go to Papal Event 2 where
they wrapped us up.
This is where PBS...
I mean, they slammed Trump in that first
clip about, oh, you know, as long as
you got applause and everyone's silent when Trump
came in.
You're supposed to be silent anyway.
We talked about peace in Ukraine dominating the
diplomatic agenda.
The Cardinal reminded the throng of Francis' despair
at the futility of war.
Faced with the raging wars of recent years
with their inhuman horrors and countless deaths and
destruction, Pope Francis incessantly raised his voice imploring
peace.
War, he said, is only the death of
people and the destruction of homes, hospitals and
schools.
Then the Cardinal named what some commentators interpreted
as a barbed missive at President Trump and
his war on the Mexican border.
This is PBS?
Yeah.
They got this British MI6 guy that comes
every once in a while and gives his
reports.
It sounds like he's doing a newsreel from
World War II.
Yeah.
War on the Mexican border.
War always leaves the world worse than it
was before.
It is always a painful and tragic defeat
for everyone.
Build bridges, not walls, was an exhortation he
repeated many times.
In conclusion, Cardinal Battista Rea appealed to Pope
Francis in the afterlife.
Pope Francis used to conclude his speeches and
also his private meetings by saying, do not
forget to pray for me.
He used to say, like, no gays.
That's what he used to say in the
private meetings.
Now, dear Pope Francis, we ask you to
pray for us and we ask you from
heaven to bless the church, bless Rome, and
bless the whole world.
After communion and an invocation to the saints
and martyrs, the funeral service came to an
end.
Before you move on to the analysis, I
have three shorties I'd like to insert, if
that's okay with you.
It's fine with me.
It's from Inside Edition.
What?
With Deborah Norville?
Yeah, I didn't know that Deborah Norville had
been downgraded to Inside Edition.
Hello?
Isn't that a downgrade?
She's been on Inside Edition.
She's the one who saved the show after
she got fired from the Today show on
NBC.
I completely forgot.
20 years ago.
Yeah, well, there you go.
I forgot about it.
Here's her report that she filed.
Hello, everybody, and thank you for joining us
as we broadcast today from Vatican City.
The funeral of Pope Francis will be taking
place right here tomorrow at St. Peter's Square.
130 foreign delegations are confirmed to attend, including
50 heads of state and 10 reigning sovereigns.
President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will
be here, along with former President Joe Biden,
all to say their final farewells to the
People's Pope.
The People's Pope.
Did you know that he was the People's
Pope?
I think I may have heard that before.
It doesn't sound right.
He wasn't the People's Pope.
He was the woke Pope.
He definitely was the woke Pope.
The Pope's lying in state came to an
end today as the last of the mourners
filed past his coffin.
Pope Francis would have loved this moment when
a lone little girl said her farewell.
President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump left
for the funeral today, praising the pontiff.
I met him twice.
I thought he was a fantastic kind of
a guy.
Hey, he wasn't a great Pope.
He was a fantastic kind of a guy.
He was a kind of a guy, you
know?
That's how gangsters talk about each other.
He was a fantastic kind of a guy.
I thought he was a fantastic kind of
a guy.
Seating arrangements could be complicated.
I spoke with CBS Evening News.
Hold on a second.
Inside Edition does have some producers that I
never heard that clip from Trump saying that's
a clip you want to use.
It's great.
It's fantastic.
That's why I'm playing the clips.
But Inside Edition has done this.
They had the little girls part.
I didn't know about that either.
Well, scripted, clearly.
Well, hello.
But having a good soundbite is always a
winner, especially if it's off.
The three mainstream networks, everything they do is
almost identical.
I know.
I was finished.
I'm sorry.
That's okay.
I thought he was a fantastic kind of
a guy.
Seating arrangements could be complicated.
I spoke with CBS Evening News co-anchor
John Dickerson.
The President of the United States and First
Lady will be here.
I understand also former President Biden will be
attending.
What challenges, if any, does that propose?
At ceremonies like this, former presidents usually put
away all of their past acrimony, and so
you would expect that here.
One would hope that tradition would hold in
the behavior of the two past presidents, but
tradition has been taking a bit of a
pounding recently.
Oh, tradition has been taking a bit of
a pounding recently.
Really?
One example?
None.
But this little ditty was also something I
don't think showed up anywhere but on Inside
Edition.
The funeral is a security nightmare.
These strange looking weapons are drone busters.
Did you see the drone busters?
Yeah, they showed a lot of pictures of
them.
Oh, they were showing it?
Okay.
They jammed the signal to a drone.
There's also an extraordinary media operation underway in
preparation for Saturday's historic funeral.
I spoke with ABC News 2020 co-anchor
Deborah Roberts.
This is a pope who touched people around
the globe.
They call him the people's pope.
And this is a man who really just
embraced anybody, the poor, the least among us.
He embraced everybody, the people's pope.
He was literally pulling his hands away from
people.
Remember that?
He's like, don't touch me, you dirty pleb.
I remember.
I remember these things.
The people's pope.
All right.
That's it.
That's all I got.
Just a little intermezzo there for you.
I have a list that I was sent
of all the bad things this guy did
in terms of traditional Catholicism.
Like appointing fake cardinals in China, for instance?
Yeah, well, letting the Chinese government pick the
cardinals.
Well, there you go.
Named pro-LGBT clergy as cardinals.
Honored Martin Luther, who broke up the Catholic,
you know, just basically began the whole Protestantism
thing.
And he honored him.
There you go.
Which is like, what?
He criticized large Catholic families who breed like
rabbits, quote unquote.
I forgot that one.
Stop breeding like rabbits!
Which is like, you know, now we have
this population decline of Western civilization.
Isn't it helping?
Well, he was the globalist pope.
That's why.
He was the, you'll own nothing and you'll
be happy.
Oh, wait, that was the other pope.
That was Schwab.
Pope Schwab.
Approved Holy Communion for adulterers.
Oh, no.
Shocking.
Shamed Catholics into taking the COVID shot.
That was a big one.
What's the one he's got on here?
This list is a mile long.
I'm going to find a couple of gems.
There's one I'm looking for, which is where
he promoted depopulation of the world.
Promoted depopulation.
Relentlessly belittled traditional Catholics as backwards, rigid, self
-absorbed, told an atheist journalist that sinful souls
are not punished.
He didn't think there was a hell.
It ushered in a kind of a Marxism
model.
He goes on, I told Muslims to stay
Muslim.
Do your thing, man.
The list is a mile long.
It's just like one thing after another.
And therefore the people's pope.
The people's pope.
I think we're on.
Do we went to clip two?
The analysis.
Also from PBS, which is always on target.
John Allen has covered the Vatican for 30
years.
He's editor of Crux, an online site that
covers the Vatican and the Catholic Church.
Crux?
Is that the name of the site?
Crux.
John, practically all the cardinals who are eligible
to vote, that means the cardinals who are
under the age of 80, were at today's
funeral.
They'll be in Rome leading up to the
conclave.
In those days, are they going to be
talking to each other, either formally or informally,
about who they might see as the next
pope?
Oh, absolutely they'll be talking to one another
about who they see as the next pope.
That is, after all, the business they have
been called to Rome to perform.
And so in these daily meetings of cardinals,
where they're meeting every morning, called the general
congregation meeting, some of that is procedural, but
some of it allows cardinals the opportunity to
talk to one another about what they see
as the issues facing the Church, to sort
through where the Church stands and where these
cardinals believe it needs to go.
Specifically at this time right now, what are
some of the considerations the cardinals will be
thinking about?
I think fundamentally, the issue that's facing every
conclave is do you want to keep going
in terms of the papacy that just ended,
or do you want to try something else?
But beyond that, there is a complicated sort
of bushel basket full of issues they'll be
looking at.
Bushel basket full?
That's an odd way of putting it.
A bushel basket full.
Sort of bushel basket full of issues they'll
be looking at from geopolitics, where we're entering
an era where old alliances seem to be
falling apart and new ones are coming into
view, and they'll want somebody who can steer
the Church safely through those storms, to internal
Church debates over contentious matters such as women
and outreach to the LGBTQ plus community, to
more broad social concerns such as migration and
climate change and poverty relief.
All papal things.
Climate change.
PBS.
That's another offensive thing.
PBS, the papal broadcast system.
So, now that there's a kind of a
kicker in the second part, I thought this
second clip is quite entertaining.
It talks about peace in Ukraine dominating the
diplomatic agenda.
No, you're not playing anal too.
Oh, I'm sorry.
You're right.
The viewership of the movie Conclave spiked after
the news of Pope Francis' death.
I think a lot of people think because
they've seen the movie, they know what a
conclave is.
You've written a book about conclaves.
How close is it to what actually happens?
I've been telling people that taking the movie
Conclave as a guide to a real papal
election is like taking that zany 80s Mel
Brooks comedy Spaceballs as a guide to real
space travel.
This is old world politics where everything is
far more genteel and indirect and subtle.
Now, don't get me wrong, and let's not
be naive.
There is real political sausage being ground during
this period.
But this isn't the Iowa caucus.
This is politics Vatican style.
How do they know that more people are
watching that?
No one divulges any numbers.
I don't know.
I just thought the Spaceballs comment was funny.
It's just lame.
Oh, please.
It was a good comment about the movie.
Of course, I didn't see the movie, so
I don't know.
You didn't see the movie, so you have
no idea.
I do know the guy at the end
of the movie the pope they picked as
a hermaphrodite.
Well, not entirely, but yeah, close enough.
You saw it?
Yeah, I saw it.
We discussed it.
Yes, I saw the movie.
I thought it was a hermaphrodite.
No, not a hermaphrodite, but had some kind
of like appendix appendicitis, and the doctors went
in and found that the then ultimately chosen
pope had ovaries.
So the pope had ovaries and a dick.
That is the implication.
But that's a hermaphrodite.
I thought the hermaphrodite means you have both
sex organs as well.
It wasn't clear from the movie, and that
was, quite frankly, a disappointment.
It seems like a long way.
The movie sounds like a shaggy dog story.
No, it's like they literally inserted that nonsense
at the end for no good reason.
It was like the big it was almost
like Madame Butterfly.
Oh, it's a girl!
Or boy.
Whatever it was.
It's a boy.
It wasn't a girl, it's a boy.
Yeah, it was just like, eh.
It was completely unnecessary for the rest of
the movie.
Really?
So they didn't need a punchline at all?
I don't think they needed a punchline.
Certainly not that one.
It made no sense.
Well, I like this baseball's analysis.
There's a third clip here which is misspelled
paper.
I got two Ps on it.
Do cardinals go into the conclave with a
candidate in mind or a group of candidates,
likely candidates in mind?
Often cardinals do file into the Sistine Chapel
with a fairly strong sense for whom they
intend to cast their vote.
I mean, bear in mind, the last two
conclaves, that is, the conclave of 2005 that
elected Pope Benedict XVI and the conclave of
2013 that elected Pope Francis, both of those
were over in about a day and a
half.
Now, that would be completely impossible if it
weren't for the fact that a number of
cardinals had made up their minds before they
actually went into the Sistine Chapel about which
way they wanted to go.
I know you said this isn't the Iowa
caucuses, but is it possible to handicap the
potential popes, the likely people who could be
pope?
Well, you know, there's an old Roman saying
that he who enters a conclave as a
pope exits as a cardinal, meaning sometimes getting
that kind of talk does you more harm
than good, but that said, we can look
at the reputations cardinals have held over the
years, the significance of the positions, that is,
the jobs that they have held.
One odds-on favorite, and somebody who certainly
will get a very serious look, would be
Italian Cardinal Pietro Paterlain, who was the Secretary
of State, that is, the top aide and
the top diplomat under Pope Francis, who would
be seen as somebody who would, in some
ways, carry forward the Francis legacy, but is
an extraordinarily stable, careful, measured man, and given
what's happening in the world, that's a prescription
I think a number of cardinals might find
attractive.
Yeah, they're supposed to listen to the Holy
Spirit, they're not supposed to be politicking.
Well, the funny thing is the irony of
that guy's last comments was that if you
enter as the Pope, which he now just
named somebody who entered as the Pope, Pietro
guy, who I thought would be the guy
I picked, would not make it, and so
the same would hold true for the Seurat
guy that you picked, because he's getting a
lot of ink For a whole bunch of
reasons, I got a lot of emails about
my Pope pick, but everyone would be very
happy, which, you know, makes me wonder.
But that's my pick, I'm standing by it,
that's what I gotta do.
Yeah, I think your pick is a great
pick, to be honest about it, and he's
old, he's not going to be there forever,
so he's got, oh, he got the black
guy in, he won't be here for long.
I mean, they won't even let Cardinals under
80 vote for the Pope, and this guy's
80.
No, no, up to 80, as far as,
you can't, not over 80s, I don't think
you can vote if you're 80 and older.
No, that's what I meant, you can't, when
you're 80 and older, you can't vote for
the Pope.
So how can you be the Pope?
It makes no sense.
And I've heard this guy talk admittedly only
in French, oh man, he's another one of
these, or a little, a little, he doesn't,
how about a Pope with a clear voice?
I think that Saraguy is a, or Seurat,
I think he speaks about four languages, I
think he speaks Italian, French, English, French, Italian,
and Papal.
Latin?
I don't know.
Three or four.
Fluently.
We'll see.
All eyes are on Vatican now now we
go into the the big smoke thing I'm
gonna be waiting for the smoke the smoke
the smoke yeah it's good branding though when
you think about it those guys they know
how to brand themselves you know you burning
up the the lots and then mixing it
with the chemical to be black or white
smoke I mean that that's that's pretty awesome
yeah I had a meme about it on
the in a newsletter you probably missed it
I did I'm sorry I was out I
had to never change now did you send
another newsletter did you send a yeah I
sent a second note because we only had
because things had fallen off the cliff and
so I had to send out the emergency
plane text uh did the would you get
stuff get trapped in the in the in
the in the spans I don't think it
might have been a little bit but I
don't think that was the cause I think
it was just a lull hmm April it's
always April um there were a couple of
interesting terms in this uh ABC report is
from your girl Martha Raddatz or what do
we call now Radnitz Martha Radnitz this is
uh the continuation because oh lord we need
to continue with signal gate but listen to
these terms we're gonna get the latest now
on the controversy surrounding defense secretary Pete Hegseth
new security questions raised from his use of
a commercial messaging app for sensitive commercial messaging
app signal is a non-profit first of
all I just and it comes back a
couple times the commercial I've heard this too
I've heard this comment too they use that
term yeah which is specifically what they want
what they're trying to imply is that this
is some off-the-shelf bonehead product that
anyone can pick up and as opposed to
a secretive government system that can only be
used by you know spies and spooks by
Rocky and Bullwinkle yeah security questions raised from
his use of a commercial messaging app for
sensitive national security communication chief global affairs anchor
Martha Raddatz tracking that story good morning Martha
hello good morning George this morning more alarming
news out of the pentagon sources tell ABC
that defense secretary Pete Hegseth accused the then
acting chairman of the Joint Chiefs Admiral Chris
Grady of leaking information to the press the
sources say Hegseth was shouting at Admiral Grady
after a story appeared about Elon Musk's possible
top secret briefing by the Joint Chiefs on
China the Wall Street Journal first to report
that Hegseth demanded proof from Admiral Grady that
he didn't leak the story yelling I'll hook
you up to a expletive polygraph and this
morning Hegseth's press spokesman denying that the defense
secretary had the commercial app signal on a
personal computer inside his pentagon office sources told
ABC that the computer hold on a second
hold on a second now this was the
the last report we got was it was
on his personal phone now she's saying he
was running signal the commercial app on his
computer inside the pentagon yeah this has been
a change in uh in narrative that's a
big change the narrative's been changed there's a
couple of things and they also left out
the fact that according to uh the guy
who's the uh chief uh national security advisor
for trump um it was a spook was
told by the CIA this is the the
product to use this is the one to
use yeah and so he was using on
his computer now you can use signal on
your computer sure but this looks like me
and my text messaging i do everything on
the computer use google voice texting because i
can type away i don't have to poke
away my thumbs and get you know you
don't have to extract your phone from your
drawer let's be honest that's so right denying
that the defense secretary had the commercial app
signal on a personal computer inside his pentagon
office sources told abc that the computer was
connected to an unsecured commercial line what is
known as a dirty line since it does
not have a dirty line yes this entire
show operates on a dirty line firewall protection
oh whoa whoa whoa whoa hold on a
second let me hear that again commercial line
what is known as a dirty line since
it does not have firewall protection all this
firewall protection that's kind of skipping along uh
okay as we've learned this morning from sources
that hegseth's chief of staff has now departed
the pentagon joe casper will now take on
a part-time advisory role in the government
we are told casper's departure follows the dismissal
of top aides to hegseth those aides were
escorted out of the building by security george
and so now now comes another piece of
information it sounds like pete hegseth is taking
a page out of the john c dvorak
handbook yeah real exodus there meantime the new
york group of times reported just moments ago
that these phone numbers well it's not an
exodus if you're kicked out the real exodus
there they're not leaving on their own accord
they're they're being kicked out no i think
one of them quit okay well then it's
not a real exodus yeah real exodus there
meantime the new york group of times reported
just moments ago and he used the exodus
yeah in exodus is it three or four
guys in exit with 245 people left walked
out the same day i would call that
an exodus yes yeah real exodus there meantime
the new york times reported just moments ago
that these phone numbers that uh hegseth was
using were actually available online oh oh like
google phone he had a google phone number
like you john google just found online yeah
george you know any personal phone is vulnerable
especially if you are the defense secretary foreign
adversaries would like those numbers and those numbers
are pretty easy to find and hegseth had
highly sensitive information on his phone in those
signal chats hold on a second yeah so
i have your phone number yeah and you
have highly sensitive information on your phone yeah
what do i do call you up and
say hey hey push that let me walk
you through some process here so you can
send me all that information i mean what
does that got to do with anything you
got his phone number of so what yeah
well if you're huawei you're in the system
four and a half if you're huawei this
is true you could probably this might be
a back door into the phone that if
you have the number you need the number
to get into the back door or if
you or if you have the database that
the nsa maintains and you need to just
give them the number and they cough back
every message you've ever done or received that's
different i think what we can conclude is
that this reporting is very flimsy they're using
all kinds of adjectives to try and hype
it up with commercial app and dirty phone
line and found the numbers online this is
just exactly what it was always intended to
be is some form of railroading for the
military industrial complex or the neocons or whoever
wants hegseth out foreign adversaries would like those
numbers and those numbers are pretty easy to
find hey pete can i have your digits
and hegseth had highly sensitive information on his
phone in those signal chats about the attack
plans in yemen highly sensitive okay well there
you go martha raddatz on the beat everybody
the world is safe abc's got issues yeah
i think they're more compromised than cbs yeah
i was trying to clip some of the
latest on the media from npr your buddy
yeah yeah it's it was very difficult because
they're just talking about how um brendan carr
the new fcc commissioner how he's going after
them and i think is it uh nbc
has a 20 billion dollar lawsuit against it
and or cbs from trump 20 billion dollar
lawsuit yeah that's been going that's ongoing i
know and like and we're also in an
investigation this is the problem with the report
we're under investigation because uh the fcc believes
that we're we don't have underwriting we have
we're doing commercial messages and then they they
went on to have no examples or even
explain what the difference is it was very
disappointing i was ready to clip a whole
bunch but it just didn't happen anyway so
well yeah the hegseth is under fire and
he's i don't think he's handling it well
no he should be more glib and less
angry yes so um we don't know exactly
what was discussed uh we had the president
meeting with zelensky which was kind of a
cool move where you had that huge room
i presume somewhere in vatican city and they
put two chairs right in the middle and
there's uh zelensky's hanging out with macron and
you know he's doing his little uh tete
-a-tete and then trump comes in they
sit down and i guess i have some
analysis of this well i'll play the news
report first president trump meeting face to face
with ukrainian president zelensky saturday at saint peter's
basilica the two discussing a ceasefire deal zelensky
sounding confident after the meeting posting he's hoping
for results and ultimately a full and unconditional
ceasefire after the meeting president trump strongly rebuking
president putin on true social accusing russia's leader
of tapping him along and saying quote maybe
he doesn't want to stop the war adding
if the missile attacks continue on ukraine he
may be forced to impose sanctions on russia
the growing frustration from the president comes after
his special envoy steve witkoff and russian president
vladimir putin met face to face for the
second time friday the meeting lasting three hours
and being called constructive and a step in
the right direction but so far neither side
has agreed to a ceasefire and president trump
saying this friday about a deadline i have
my own deadline and we want it to
be fast and the prime minister is helping
us he wants it to be fast too
so we have a deadline and after that
we have a we're gonna have a very
much different attitude yeah he has his own
deadline he's got his own deadline he's got
so she dropped the tapping along also yes
comment this is actually what do you call
that when something does not show up in
google we had a word for that back
in the day what's that word google wash
was no no no not google wash no
if it doesn't show up in google then
it has a term that doesn't happen very
often but this tapping along is one of
those phrases it does google nothing no search
engine knows about it that's that's interesting all
right your npr analysis well let's start with
the uh first of all the tapping along
here with the uh the trump vatican zelensky
npr clip which is the kind of what
you played but this is a their version
president trump is back in the u.s
after his very brief trip to vatican city
to attend pope francis's funeral as npr's depa
shivaram reports while there he met with ukraine's
zelensky the meeting between trump and zelensky took
place in saint peter's basilica shortly before the
funeral program began the white house hasn't released
any detail of the conversation between the two
leaders but trump posted on his social media
platform truth social and said he thinks russian
leader vladimir putin might be quote tapping me
along and doesn't want to end the war
he was critical of russia's attacks on civilian
areas and floated the idea of sanctions against
russia but provided no further detail trump is
spending the rest of the weekend at his
golf club in bedminster new jersey depa shivaram
npr news okay that's pretty straightforward they get
tapping along comes up again and it's straightforward
they don't talk about you know big applause
for zelensky and booed trump and so now
we go to an analysis uh and they
bring in this guy mcfall you see if
you see this guy he's got this dour
quality to him he used to be an
ambassador i think is a spook uh he
um trump hater to the core and so
you're gonna so he's gonna be biased and
he's gonna see nothing good going on but
everything that trump did that he thought was
positive he does say but it's all you
know kind of neoliberal crap but here we
go president trump met with ukraine's president vladimir
zelensky at the vatican this morning a photo
shows the two leaders sitting face to face
huddled together in seemingly deep conversation on the
sidelines of pope francis's funeral the white house
says the two had quote a very productive
discussion and on social media earlier today president
trump criticized his russian counterpart writing quote there
was no reason for putin to be shooting
missiles into civilian areas it makes me think
that maybe he doesn't want to stop the
war he's just tapping me along this all
comes a day after u.s envoy steve
witkoff met with president putin in moscow to
discuss a possible end to the war in
ukraine here to talk about what all of
this high-level diplomacy means is michael mcfall
he served as the former u.s ambassador
to russia during the obama administration and is
currently the director of the freeman spogli institute
for international studies at stanford university welcome thanks
for having me let's start with this meeting
what do you make of the meeting what
do you make of the fact that afterward
trump posted on social media criticizing vladimir putin
not vladimir zelensky well i'm glad they had
the meeting anytime they can meet especially one
-on-one without cameras without staff that's always
a good thing without cameras president zelensky gets
to explain his position directly to president trump
the reaction from president zelensky on social media
was very positive and other staff people have
said positive things and as you just noted
president trump also did criticize putin he suggested
that maybe he's not serious about peace and
that there should be sanctions and that's in
my view a correct assessment of where putin
has been so far and that would be
a correct prescription to try to put pressure
on russia something president trump and his team
have never done yeah even bolton came out
and went oh this is good this is
good whenever these guys are all on the
same side they're all putin haters trump haters
and so when trump looks like he's standing
up to putin this is great yeah and
if he got closer and like started threatening
a war it'd be even greater and if
we bombed iran that would be fabulous these
guys would be all over themselves all over
yeah nice yeah all right onward sorry but
i'd also point out that president trump sounds
always tough on social media and says a
lot of things rhetorically and very rarely follows
up with concrete actions when we're talking about
pressure on putin pressure on russia trump said
yesterday he thinks ukraine and russia are close
how do you read that what do you
think is happening in the coming weeks do
you think this war could end i'm not
sure i worry that putin is not serious
about ending this war i think putin thinks
time's on his side trump and his team
will eventually get frustrated and walk away they'll
cut military assistance to ukraine and that's all
in putin's favor for continuing the war and
to try to conquer the territory on the
ground that he is already annexed uh on
paper uh you buy a map in russia
today and it has four of those regions
of ukraine as part of the russian federation
curious what your best realistic read is right
now and not what you would like to
see but what you think is realistic well
i would disconnect two different things that get
conflated there's a cease-fire and then there's
a permanent peace agreement to end the war
and i think those are two very different
things i think most immediately getting a cease
-fire uh and even if it has to
be a minimum one getting a cease-fire
that both sides say we are not going
to attack civilian targets that would be a
great achievement for the ukrainians remember putin constantly
every day and just a few days ago
again in their capital of is attacking civilian
targets i call that terrorism uh that would
be great to end and then that moment
if you got to a cease-fire could
create the permissive conditions for a longer negotiation
that i think could go on for months
if not years about some permanent peace settlement
and i'm not optimistic they would ever get
it but at least the war would stop
without forcing zelensky to acknowledge annexation and i
think tragically that's probably the best outcome uh
google whack that was the term i never
i don't recall that term yes google whack
it's a google whack tapping along is not
found in a google search it is a
google whack so okay so we have all
that taking place but meanwhile the president is
definitely saying that it appears like there are
already some terms that have been negotiated particularly
when it comes to crimea steve witkoff president
trump's special envoy met with russian president vladimir
putin friday for a fourth time to discuss
a peace deal with ukraine russia and ukraine
i think they're coming along we hope very
fragile the president said he's not placing a
deadline on the talks but wants to get
something done as quickly as possible we're going
to try and get out of war so
that we can save 5 000 people a
week i think i think we're pretty close
russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov told cbs news
faced the nation moderator margaret brennan he agreed
with trump's assessment that talks are moving in
the right direction but wouldn't discuss details we
are really polite people and unlike some others
we never discuss in public what is being
discussed in negotiations otherwise negotiations are not serious
no a major sticking point in negotiations is
crimea seized by russia in 2014 in a
new interview with time magazine president trump said
crimea will stay with russia but ukrainian president
vladimir zalinsky says he cannot accept that because
it goes against his country's constitution both president
zalinsky and trump will be in rome for
the pope's funeral on saturday where the president
says it's possible that they'll talk oh so
now all of us it's like zalinsky they
just keep telling him no just keep keep
it going whatever they want just say no
i can't do that i can't have elections
because that's uh unconstitutional but i can't give
up crimea because that goes against our constitution
there there is no uh they have no
intention of a truce i don't see it
i really don't see that we're getting accurate
information well that's what i don't see now
like a good businessman running our country president
trump has put a hedge in place and
he sent little marco down to africa or
over to africa to take care of the
deal the democratic republic of congo and rwanda
have signed what they're calling a pathway to
peace in a u.s brokered agreement as
the rwanda-backed m23 keep up gaining ground
the congo found it crucial to accept the
offer made by the u.s a necessary
step towards peace taken with resolve and purpose
this moment carries particular weight for the democratic
republic of the congo in goma in bukavu
and beyond the declaration of principles rwanda says
opens the door to a definitive deal our
common aim is to conclude a comprehensive peace
agreement as soon as possible but there are
no shortcuts or quick fixes and we have
to do the hard work to get it
done right once and for all the long
simmering tensions between the two neighboring countries have
led to one of the world's largest humanitarian
crisis yet the diplomatic breakthrough the u.s
have facilitated is no accident trump's administration is
in talks with kinshasa to invest billions of
dollars in minerals drc is the world's largest
producer of and has vast deposits such as
gold and copper i think we're looking at
some rare earths coming from the drc you
know we can talk about rare earths coming
from here and there all we want but
the problem is and it's always ignored in
these reports we can't process these rare earths
that's the problem it's not that china has
nothing but rare earths china has a hundred
percent of the world's processing capability i thought
canada had some doesn't canada have processing not
that i know of all i know is
that china and china we we dig up
rare earths we ship it to china they
process and we get it back well you
don't have to get mad about it i'm
mad at the fact that they keep not
reporting on this okay so what we got
a rare earths deal so what we can't
do anything with it well what does it
take to process rare earths can we start
rare earth processing it does that take 100
years i think i personally i don't know
but i will say what i suspect okay
it's a mess yeah probably it's a dangerous
thing to do it's probably toxic as hell
ruins everything around it it's got to be
a laughable mess that's the only thing i
can think of otherwise we'd be send it
to canada that's i don't think canada is
doing it they should start get rid of
canada it's a great idea canada why don't
you process this we'll drop all the all
the tariffs but here's more evidence that i
really don't believe that they want any kind
of truce and nor do we because our
boy over there our sales guy in uh
in the eu we all know him margaret
your buddy margaret he just keeps on harping
the same thing it's got to be more
money more money and for a long time
the kremlin says an offensive by the ukrainian
army in russia's kursk region is over that
emerged in a briefing between the russian president
vladimir putin and the head of russia's general
staff valery garasimov who said the last occupied
settlement in the region had just been recaptured
the plans of the kiev regime to create
a so-called strategic bridgehead and disrupt our
offensive in the donbass have failed russia also
confirmed for the first time that north korean
soldiers have been fighting alongside russian troops in
kursk the russian defense ministry released this video
footage showing aerial shots and soldiers running and
others issuing instructions to raise a russian flag
over a village in the region ukrainian officials
however say the fighting is still continuing ukraine's
general staff said the statements of representatives of
the high command this is the wrong clip
how come you didn't stop me well i
was waiting for you to cut in with
your voice the wrong clip i'm sorry nato
secretary general mark rutherford all 32 member nations
to devote more funds equipment and political energy
to the world's largest military alliance the move
comes as european countries ramp up defense spending
to meet the agreed upon two percent threshold
ahead of the nato summit in the hagen
june it also follows threats by u.s
president donald trump of walking away from nato
if europe does not increase defense spending to
at least five percent of gdp here we
go it has to be considerably higher than
this famous two percent which we wanted to
achieve by 2024 no it must be five
we have seen the last couple of days
countries like belgium and spain and italy saying
we will reach the two percent in time
for the summit so that's not 2024 but
close close but clearly with two percent we
cannot defend nato territory it has to be
considerably higher and i've said before you have
to understand it is not enough money we
can't defend you we cannot defend nato territory
without the right amount of monies it has
to be considerably north of north north ruta
insists the increase in spending is to ensure
nato's safety and not just match the u
.s he added that the alliance must be
fully competent and ready to weather any storm
particularly against one common threat what could that
common threat be we all agree in nato
that russia is the long-term threat to
nato territory we all agree we all agree
it is the long-term threats to nato
territories uh to the whole of the um
your atlantic territory there we go the comments
came during a visit to washington to meet
with high-ranking u.s defense officials including
defense secretary pete hexad the nato boss was
also questioned by reporters on the ongoing peace
talks to end the war in ukraine but
declined to give his opinion as to not
hinder the process i think this this is
all part of the forthcoming mar-a-lago
accords the whole the whole if i put
it all together you know with the the
trillion dollar coin um economic concessions if you
buy our military gear so no tariffs if
you uh you know but we'll protect you
as long as you know you you spend
the money uh of course dollar devaluation which
i think is happening uh but it's going
to be the tariffs is going to be
linked to the united states protecting you and
then we'll have the 100-year bonds or
whatever and it was actually i come up
with this you didn't you have a clip
on the last show from besant at the
railing on the imf and the world bank
about their climate change nonsense i'd have to
look into clipless but i don't know i
don't know specifically what clip you're talking about
let's just play it again well um i
i think that's what it was because i
went back and i listened to uh besant
talking at it's like the international finance had
two besant clips gambit let me see what
they were the first one was about him
railing on the chinese yeah yeah and the
other one was uh just a generalized not
not as a strong clip well if you
listen to the opening of that speech that
he did here's what he said in the
final months of world war ii western leaders
convened the greatest economic minds of their generation
their task to build a new financial system
at a quiet resort high up in the
mountains of new hampshire they laid the foundation
for pax americana the architects of bretton woods
recognized that a global economy required global coordination
to encourage that coordination they created the imf
and the world bank these twin institutions were
born after a period of intense geopolitical and
economic volatility the purpose of the imf and
the world bank was to better align national
interests with international order thereby bringing stability to
an unstable world in short their purpose was
to restore and preserve balance this remains the
purpose of the brenton woods institutions yet everywhere
we look across the international system today we
see imbalance the good news it doesn't have
to be this way my goal this morning
is to outline a blueprint to restore equilibrium
to the global financial system and the institutions
designed to uphold it sounds like a new
accord to me and the what the imf
their original task as i understand it was
to allow countries to devalue or revalue their
currency but with everybody knowing it and so
you had to go and get permission from
the imf and that's how they provided stability
and that's how the whole foreign exchange business
grew out of that and of course eventually
went completely nuts so he wants to rebalance
everything and then here's his clip on in
response to president trump's tariff announcements more than
a hundred countries have approached us wanting to
help rebalance global trade these countries have responded
openly and positively to the president's actions to
create a more balanced international system we are
engaged in meaningful discussions and look forward to
talking with others china in particularly in particular
is in need of a rebalancing recent data
shows the chinese economy tilting even further away
from consumption toward manufacturing china's economic system with
growth driven by manufacturing exports will continue to
create even more serious imbalances with its trading
partners if the status quo is allowed to
continue china's current economic model is built on
exporting its way out of its economic troubles
it's an unsustainable model that is not only
harming china but the entire world china needs
to change the country knows it needs to
change everyone knows it needs to change and
we want to help it change because we
need rebalancing too china can start by moving
its economy away from export overcapacity and towards
supporting its own consumers and domestic demand such
a shift would help with global rebalancing that
the world desperately needs so rebalancing rebalancing this
is the most presumptuous this that that last
part is the part that you're talking about
that i played the yes um this is
the most i thought about this this is
the most presumptuous thing who says that china
doesn't oh we're so we wish we had
more uh our trade wasn't so unbalanced this
bullcrap they've always they've been saying for years
that they want to own the manufacturing space
for the whole world and then by some
date they always have some date in the
future where they expect to dominate the whole
all of it china and so what is
he talking about well he's talking about uh
doing the exact same thing we want to
export yeah you can't be all the exporter
we want to export and we've been talking
to the chinese about it or have we
u.s presidents donald trump said on thursday
that the u.s and china have been
in trade talks after beijing denied any tariffs
during a meeting with norway's prime minister at
the white house trump told reporters that his
officials had a meeting with their chinese counterparts
on thursday morning well they had a meeting
this morning so i can't tell you it
doesn't matter who they is uh we may
reveal it later but their meetings this morning
and we've been meeting with china earlier china's
foreign ministry denied trump's assertion that the two
sides were involved in active negotiations These are
all fake news.
As far as I know, it's not about
reaching an agreement.
that's chinese for fake news the chinese comments
came after trump said tuesday that the final
tariff rate on china's exports would come down
substantially from the current 145 percent the trade
war has raised fears of a global economic
slowdown with the international monetary fund imf slashing
its 2025 growth forecast from 3.3 percent
to 2.8 percent so you know if
these mar-a-lago accords actually happen and
they try to get everybody together and they
try to rebalance i understand security guarantees i
understand debt restructuring and i think actually president
trump could probably do that could convince everybody
to take on a hundred year bond at
a uh interest rate um tariff says leverage
but dollar devaluation i have two questions one
how do you how do you devalue your
current how does the dollar devalue what is
the key the key lever to doing that
oh and then all of a sudden you
went away i hate it did that thing
just do it again hold on john it
did it again it just decides all of
a sudden i'm just going to use a
different a different interface these guys screw are
you there are you there yeah okay no
we're completely gone it is clean feed decided
to change the interface again this is this
doing this a lot to you yes so
anyway my question again how do you how
does one devalue the dollar how do you
do that well you don't uh for one
thing the dollar will slide up and down
uh in its value naturally and it's not
as devalued as it once was i'd say
i don't know how many years ago when
the when the euro was a buck 26
um i remember that because i went i
think i was in europe that year and
uh so i you it's not like the
peso where they all of a sudden make
an announcement that is worth half as much
well that that's what i'm asking because we're
talking about it we can't do that can
we do it if we if we flood
the world with stable coin could would that
do it just by i don't think i
don't think i i don't know why you
want to do that i'm i'm not saying
i want to do anything i hear that
i read all the time about dollar devaluation
and i'm how does china devalue their currency
they're doing it is not a reserve currency
and they just they just arbitrarily move it
up and down based on but how do
you do central planning you have to have
central planning it's not possible i'm just we
can't go devalue the dollar it's not going
to happen asking you okay i'm asking you
for the mecca so let's say how does
china just wakes up one day and says
we're worth less yeah that's how they do
it this is we're just and they just
say okay you just do they change the
exchange rates on there and i'm asking for
the mechanics no they change the exchange rate
so why couldn't why couldn't we do that
with a dollar you could do that with
it you could say we're just the exchange
rate is now this i'm not saying we
should the dollar would collapse the whole world
economic system would fall apart oh who says
that's not the idea we don't want that
you have a worldwide depression and we'd be
out of a job we could talk about
lousy donations man you're fighting me like i'm
the one saying this should happen i'm just
reading about it and i'm trying to understand
the mechanisms of it well i don't know
what the mechanism would be well could the
mechanism be by creating a flood of new
dollars in the form of stable coin that
would just by having to start the printing
presses up that'll do it same thing it's
the same hell with stable coin you don't
need the stable coin just crank out the
money just change the money supply biden kind
of did that it cheapened the dollar it's
more fun way of doing it it's more
fun to say stable coin yeah you like
the word stable coin you are in a
horrible mood today i don't know what did
you get on out on the wrong side
of the bed or what what happened to
you you're like yeah like you got up
on the wrongs what the hell am i
doing over here on this side of the
bed so how does people get on uh
out of bed on the wrong side of
the bed i think that's an interesting phrase
is this part of the horowitz rift are
you are you mad being the child in
the middle i mean what's going on man
you said you're in a bad mood i'm
just trying to get a little conversation you're
saying i'm in a bad mood you're bringing
up topics that i can't you're asking me
questions i can't answer oh then just say
i can't answer it instead i said that
i already said i don't know instead you
said you don't want to do that except
you can do the printing pressing that will
okay value the dollar but just hypothetically just
follow with me you could also do a
fake printing press with stable coin i don't
know what that even means that's the problem
well you create more dollars only these are
digital dollars just like the eu is going
to do with the digital euro everyone's going
to be doing this this is in the
cards so the digital dollars the stable coin
is the same thing yeah that's that's the
yes you you make us when you buy
a treasury you for every dollar of treasury
bill that you purchase um you get to
create a stable coin that's what that's what
there are hundreds of billions of stable coins
already in circulation based upon this that's what
tether does so they they have already done
this and that's what lutnick was doing with
the cantor fitzgerald they are they are going
to be the biggest provider of liquidity uh
or i guess backing of stable coin sounds
like economic mumbo jumbo all economics is mumbo
jumbo as far as i'm concerned i think
i think there's that's part of the plan
just you know just create stable coin that
could devalue the dollar that is the same
as a printing press only it's not the
same as the money supply like m2 or
whatever anyway i'm just waiting for the mar
-a-lago accord that's what i'm waiting for
you have some hang up on this mar
-a-lago accords because i coined it now
everybody's using it i talked about it first
okay it's just like the pope everyone's listening
to our show and they're not donating well
that's for sure these guys these guys the
catholic donors no they're donating what do you
mean void zero is one of our biggest
value contributors mega catholic he's a meta meta
meta catholic meta meta meta meta uh okay
well let me see if i can change
your mood with this uh sports ball little
sports ball and you were in the news

for virginia to handle its weight jufre said
in 2019 epstein's sex trafficking ring passed her
around like a platter of fruit to the
rich and powerful including britain's prince andrew when
she was 17.
the duke of york denies the allegations and
questioned the authenticity of this infamous photo of
him with his arm around jufre's waist they
settled out of court for an undisclosed amount
in 2022.
we need to show the world that the
rich and the mighty can fall too.
jufre spoke with gail king in 2020 about
her fight for justice and epstein's death by
suicide in a new york jail.
it would have been great to look at
him in court and say you know you
hurt me you took away my innocence you
took away my youth but he took that
away from us too.
so they didn't really they kind of they
buried the lead if not explained at all
because the real story is i have two
parts here is that she committed suicide.
the woman who was one of the most
prominent accusers of wealthy sex offender jeffrey epstein
has died.
virginia jufre was 41 years old.
her family says she died by suicide.
so this is this is a very strange
story because i have a clip that i
clipped i think three weeks ago we just
there's a lot of clips we don't get
to in the show and tons yeah and
it was it was an odd oddball story
about her so this is three weeks ago
where she went on instagram it's like oh
i've been hit by a bus there's a
couple of things before you play that there's
a very interesting uh for people who like
this sort of thing uh conspiracy videos floating
around saying that she was murdered and uh
it's very it's kind of fascinating because they
say the bus accident which they've shown didn't
didn't account for her actual bruising that she's
being beaten by some lover of hers that
was a sadist i guess and beating the
crap out of her constantly and so the
pictures you saw were all beat up was
like not nothing to do with the bus
wreck that it correct then he then he
hung her oh i didn't hear that part
well here's here's the report that i clipped
three weeks ago police in australia appear to
have disputed a claim made by prince andrew's
accuser virginia jufre that she was involved in
a serious crash which has left her with
just days to live the 41 year old
who previously alleged that the duke of york
had sexually assaulted her when she was a
teenager wrote on instagram yesterday that her car
had collided with a school bus well lady
pitt is here there are some conflicting details
in this aren't there it is a bit
confusing mary because in her post online virginia
jufre said that she's gone into kidney renal
failure and is being transferred to a specialist
urology hospital and she's posted a photo where
she appears to be in a hospital bed
and has quite severe bruising to her face
she goes on to say that she has
four days to live after a crash with
the school bus near to her home in
perth in australia now western australia police explain
they know of a minor crash between a
school bus and a car that was reported
by the bus driver the following day but
there were no reported injuries to them as
a result of the here's what the officers
have said i do know there was an
accident on the 24th of march it was
a bus with a another vehicle and was
there any passengers on the bus at the
time when you were i'm not aware of
passengers on the bus but certainly the bus
driver reported as as he was required to
do and in the right time frames and
i'm advised it was about two thousand dollars
damage in the vehicle not aware of any
injuries so the there's another option which is
she's gone underground because pam bondi is about
to drop the epstein report what would if
she she's already out front about all that
i can't see that being part of it
i'm just saying this i think my thesis
about the sadist and the uh is more
likely oh it's not my thesis i know
but where is the epstein report that that
would be the big question where is the
epstein maybe she here's i guess the third
possibility she hung herself because she's tired of
waiting wow oh that's that's pretty bad bad
bad bad we're never gonna see the epstein
i don't think so either we have to
get that out of our craw i don't
think we're gonna see i don't think there
is a report i think whatever it is
been burned with everything else and the epstein
is probably still alive there you go yep
uh all right well that didn't die i
hardly call that a cheerful uh well i
was just trying to version i i got
some stuff i know how to cheer me
up oh no tick tock clips oh please
talk talk tick tock all right two tick
tock i have two okay and the first
one is a this guy it looks exactly
like governor newsome only he's got gray hair
and he sounds like newsome and i posted
uh reposted this on twitter and actually tagged
newsome because oh i'm gonna tag him that'll
show him i'm tagging newsome that'll show him
look at me i'm the real dvorak well
he does follow me so it's it has
some meaning you've got great followers name dropping
yeah and so uh but this guy looks
it looks exactly like him and he's a
little more manic but i just got the
biggest kick at it but this is typical
of these guys and he's wearing a suit
and tie and he's just a screwball clip
donald trump is now arresting a federal judge
who disagrees with his immigration policy not only
is this illegal but it's happening at the
same time that donald trump is defying a
nine to zero court order the law it
is at the same time that he's disappearing
people without due process a violation of the
constitution a violation of the law make no
mistake donald trump is breaking the law at
the same time that he's breaking the law
further by arresting federal judges this is complete
and utter meltdown of the checks and balances
to protect us from being an authoritarian regime
now is the time america to be honest
of course the time was a month ago
two months ago three months ago last november
but now if you are not feeling with
fervor the desire to defend your country to
defend the promise of what you can be
then you are no longer part of this
american experiment call your senators call your reps
knock on their doors at their offices and
only one word should be on our lips
impeach oh man that's
pretty typical yeah of what that's a typical
for a saturday afternoon in your office it's
just like wow now the other one i
have which i think is quite funny and
i don't know you know i'm in between
i i if i'm being logical about this
this is just a troll and this was
at an aoc town hall what trolls on
tick tock what this this is at an
aoc town hall it's a question and answer
and this woman comes up and she goes
on about uh her thesis about overpopulation and
what we should be doing about it to
save the planet for climate change and there's
a note of sincerity in her voice that
she's either i don't know if she got
me has me convinced she's a good actress
or what but it's a it's a total
troll it has to be but alexandria ocasio
-cortez doesn't call her out as such and
she just kind of goes along with it
which is pathetic i might add but here
it is gonna be here for much longer
because of the climate crisis we only have
a few months left right there troll that
you support the green deal but it's not
getting you know getting rid of fossil fuel
it's not going to solve the problem fast
enough a swedish professor saying you know we
can eat dead people but that's not fast
enough so i think your next campaign slogan
has to be this we got to start
eating babies we don't have enough time there's
too much co2 really now you were questioning
if this was true all of you you're
you you know you're pollutant too we have
to start now please you are so great
i'm so happy that you're really supporting nuclear
deal but is this the real alex stein
dressed up with a with a voice changer
no it's just some random swedish woman not
enough you know even if we would bomb
russia we still have too many people too
much pollution so we have to get rid
of the babies that's a big problem just
stopping having babies that's not enough we need
to eat the babies and this is very
serious please give a response no thank you
thank you we'll go ahead um okay no
we'll go ahead no no no thank you
so i think um yeah no so one
of the things that's very important to us
is that we need to treat the climate
crisis with the urgency that it does present
um luckily we have more than a few
months we do need to hit net zero
in several years um but i think we
all need to to to understand that there
are a lot of solutions that we have
and that we can pursue and that if
we act in a positive way there's space
for hope there's we are never beyond hope
now hold on a second i so i
went searching for a clip because i know
that we had eating the baby so at
some point in the history of the show
2019 is this the same it is that's
an old clip it's not from c-span
because of the climate crisis that's from 2019
well you think my memory would be a
little better that i can remember that clip
than was it mine and it was taken
from c-span by the way it wasn't
really a tiktok clip i just call everything
let me say talk because it's yeah yeah
uh yeah in one of your clips yeah
i'm not calling out for that reason i'm
surprised i don't remember playing it i remembered
okay well although i have to say we
if that clip existed and i submitted it
it was definitely played oh nobody wants to
not eating the babies i'm sure i'm sure
it was played that's why i remember like
wait i remember eating it but i didn't
realize it was the exact same clip it's
in fact it's the same length buck 50
interesting well that this is why the internet
this is what bothers me by the way
this recycling of clips oh i see it
so often it's just all over it's all
over in fact there's a couple of clips
that i saw that i lost track of
and then they you know like from about
a year ago and and boop there they
are again they're coming back around so basically
it wasn't aoc getting trolled you got trolled
with another clip with it with an old
clip i got trolled with an old clip
but it's a great no it's it's a
great clip it's a great clip but this
i should just put classic on there i
mean i'm you know sometimes i i wonder
if we're doing a disservice because you know
the show started off in 28 20 2000
well before 2008 but 2008 ron paul was
running he had and the fed he had
his book out and everybody was talking about
you know the federal reserve it's as federal
as federal express and everyone kind of understood
that this was not a government agency and
now that ian carroll dude he's made a
whole video like did you know that the
federal reserve is as governmental as federal express
and people are sending it to me like
this is a good background or you need
to watch this you need to know that
the federal reserve is not part of the
government and i'm thinking to myself ah do
we need to re-explain these things is
is that where we're at now there's a
number of people out there that have condemned
oh there was i forgot who it was
somebody sent us a note going on and
on about how we have basically taken for
granted many of these issues with the audience
expecting them to know that's possible it's possible
i think it's possible maybe we should just
start re-airing old shows i think we
could get away with it you can start
with the baby clip just find that show
and see what else was on there's probably
some gems for every time that the word
obama shows up like oh but trump just
insert that real quick and that'll be the
same show nothing's changed eating the baby well
i'm glad you remembered that so here is
um some delusional dc union dems this is
this is beautiful this is a toe tapper
you talk about tapping somebody along this is
your toe tapper um they're so mad at
doge so mad at musk that they made
a song about it and it's it's kind
of a negro spiritual when you listen to
it oh which side are you on which
side are you on which side are you
that's an old that's an old union song
from the 30s oh it's a union it's
a it's a commie union song yeah that's
a that's a classic oh only you would
know that it's yeah well i do know
it what side is that's a union song
yeah which side are you on it was
a i think it goes back into the
30s well i'll play this and i'll look
up the the original ones on we'll fight
against we'll fight from
dawn to dusk oh which side are you
on which side are you on he's got
this it's really old-fashioned here it is
it's the american socialist song here we go
with a banjo apparently from the combined socialist
states of america 1938 i'm trying to talk
up the intro it's taken a long time
come on sing oh okay now here it
comes so they're doing a socialist song yeah
wow wow which side are you on yes
an old socialist song from the wow so
a bunch of commies hello oh man that's
crazy if anyone wants to make end of
show mix i'll put the whole thing in
the in the show notes i was just
like and they did a whole new lyrics
to it like oh brother give me a
break so here's another interesting thing that took
place so uh caroline levitt which i discussed
in the newsletter with some interesting information because
there's been some phony baloney youtube videos about
her oh they're going after her personally now
they're going after her personally is that no
it's just the opposite oh they're they're it's
like a reverse smear that's the way i
described it but they're making it sound like
some sort of a genius and she just
sued the view and she got 800 million
dollars what and it was all elaborate it's
all you go check the newsletter there's a
link to the video and if and so
i checked it and look this is how
come i haven't heard of this because i'm
watching it you know being hook line and
sinkered and uh after watching another video about
her where she excoriated the supreme court under
some circumstance which which i eventually found the
disclaimer for it on the youtube video by
clicking more so this is fiction oh there's
no fiction on the 800 million dollar lawsuit
story which is very well produced and you'd
be convinced what was it for what was
the 800 million for uh defamation wow because
they brought her on the show and they
slammed her and made fun of her and
they found all these memos she won this
suit 800 million no this is the point
oh okay it's an elaborate hoax but it's
so elaborate oh wow that it's like you
see this you watch the video and you
are totally convinced that this actually took place
it's very well done i mean the video's
got clips from different people on the on
fox talking about how she how this is
going down and well it looks like she's
good she got their apology she got an
apology but she's not and it's just but
they clip it so beautifully it's one of
the great pieces of propaganda i've ever seen
in my life so i look at i
but i but i believed it because i
saw it just casually yes and so i
said i've never heard of this 800 million
dollars is not chicken feed no that's almost
a billion like where's the news on this
there's nothing in the new york times nothing
in the washington post oh they had you
going they had you going they had me
going for a few minutes but then i
i then i ran it through ai searches
oh goodness and i ran it through all
of them i ran through grok spotted it
as a hoax uh chachi everything but he
spotted his host but perplexity which is one
of my go-tos perplexity.ai uh they
bought it wow and so i i saw
the thing about she won this 800 million
dollar lawsuit and then i looked at the
they have reference buttons you push and you
see what the references are and there were
two references both of the same fake youtube
video oh yeah that i guess they scanned
and i don't know how they managed to
get it in there but they did it
what ai was wrong no say it ain't
so so i'm using this as an example
of ai you know can't even do the
fact checking for you but but so this
this kind of thing's been going on so
uh so but anyway that's aside carolyn levitt
has made it so you have a couple
of uh podcasters can now they have a
podcasting seat oh it's a new media i
think it's the new media seat yeah the
new media seat new media and there's a
seat in front and there's some bunch of
them in the back but the seat in
front was now occupied for this one day
by tim pool your buddy when you're in
the new media seat you have to wear
the dunce cap is that the idea you
sit there in the corner with a big
over to the side wearing his beanie big
pointy hat oh with his beanie okay and
he's sitting there i don't know if you
saw this or no i did not i
knew he was okay i knew about this
is the clip from it it's it how
long does this clip go for 142 140
yes 140 just about 140 yeah it's a
it's a scripted to such an embarrassing extreme
that she should be ashamed of herself because
you just this is unbelievable this was this
is they're going to use this new media
seat to slam the mainstream media with with
tropes and she's going to respond oh you
make such a good point yeah this is
terrible you're right how does the phone call
go hello uh tim pool this is the
white house press office uh we are sending
you a script we have decided that you
are going to be in the new media
seat now since you have a beanie you
don't have to wear the dunce cap but
we will be sending you a script and
we expect you to read it is that
okay and here's the clip many of these
organizations that are represented in this room have
martin lock that right there is written by
the white house press office that is that
is a carolyn levitt line many of the
organizations represented in this room yeah right off
the bat you can hear it's a script
many of these organizations that are represented in
this room have martin lockstep on false narratives
such as the very fine people hoax the
covington smear and now what's being called the
maryland man hugs did she have his hand
up her uh her hand up his butt
and moving his mouth i mean this is
unbelievable where an ms13 gang member adjudicated by
two different judges i believe is just simply
being referred to as a maryland man over
and over again now in an effort from
the white house to expand access to new
companies you've created this new media seat so
i'm wondering if you can comment on following
this expansion you've had numerous outlets to disparage
the the companies that you've had sit here
as well as the reporters i'm wondering if
you can comment on the unprofessional behavior as
well as elaborate if there's any plans to
expand access you're behaving very unprofessionally towards me
i am boy sure well you certainly welcome
uh diverse viewpoints in this room which is
one of the reasons we have you in
here and there's many new faces in this
room in comparison to the previous administrations we
want to welcome all viewpoints into this room
we welcome unbiased journalists who really care about
the truth and the facts and the accuracy
and you rightfully pointed out the maryland man
story which i from this podium when the
atlantic published it on that very first day
i came to this podium and said this
is wrong the the press in this room
have this story wrong and we have seen
more and more evidence come to the table
that we have had all along we were
always right the president was always on the
right side of this issue to deport this
illegal criminal from our community and it is
despicable to see the media continue to refer
to this individual as someone who is just
a peaceful man living his life in maryland
this is was and always has been an
illegal criminal an ms-13 gang member and
a designated foreign terrorist and the administration maintains
our position to deport these individuals from our
community so thank you for being here tim
great to see you thank you oh man
how pathetic and you know if she says
one more time from this podium from this
podium well i'm going to start using that
here at my podcast podium john are you
at your podium what do you think about
it from your podium yeah yeah meanwhile i
recorded it last night we had the white
house correspondence dinner also known as you know
that they i saw it mentioned and i
was going to go check it out because
i why would you why would you never
did i just completely dropped the ball so
i'm glad you picked it up well i
just picked up a little bit of it
because you know and i what's the most
fun is watching it's called the nerd ball
the nerd ball the most fun is watching
the people come in and c-span they
in essence just turn the camera on they
have their their their girl there who has
a microphone and and she's just grabbing people
of course there was no comedian they they
fired the comedian there was no president uh
and there was um there were almost no
celebrities which was the whole point of the
fun of the white house correspondence dinner it
was fun to watch because the comedian would
roast the president and the president would sit
there and take it and you know it
was it was that that moment in time
which is gone gone forever yeah and and
so they had the so you know what
do they have to do well then everyone
else is the star so you had all
of the the news anchors showing up and
then i saw dana bash with uh what's
the man woman what's her name caitlin caitlin
calling jenner no okay no no caitlin collins
caitlin collins caitlin collins the lipless wonder yeah
the lipless wonder and they are primping and
posing for the camera and and shimmying their
shoulders and laughing and doing yes yes yes
yes i was my my mouth was a
gape i'm like oh my gosh they they
they real they're they're the stars they're the
celebrities as you all know and then they
have this guy we invite the president to
this dinner for decades presidents on both sides
of the political spectrum get gussied up and
join us have you seen this guy the
new president of the white house correspondence association
yeah it sounds a lot like what's a
black guy from uh cape heart well he
might be his brother but he's in a
complete white suit with um with a instead
of a tie he's got like a pearl
brooch and he and he looks what with
a pearl brooch you know like a brooch
gay he sounds hello i want to be
clear about something we don't invite presidents of
the united states to this because it's for
them we don't invite them because we want
to cozy up to them or curry favor
sounds like we don't you got to look
at this guy his name is eugene i'm
looking at eugene daniels he looks like he
walked right on eugene daniels he looks like
he walks straight out of an el de
barge video i mean it's like it's a
little obscure not for this guy not for
people who were around in the 80s only
extend invites to the presidents who say they
love journalists or who say they are defenders
of the first amendment and a free press
we invite them to remind them that they
should be we invite them to demonstrate that
those of us who have chosen the public
service of journalism aren't the public service of
journalism it's a job doing it because we
love flights on air force one or walking
into the oval office yeah you do it's
to remind them why a strong fourth estate
is essential for democracy that's why we have
podcasters a smattering of applause well here he
is here's a picture of him in this
outfit you're talking about so he's wearing it's
in variety of course of course i'm hi
everybody i made variety i made variety these
people feel like they are stars and there's
they're pontificating like this is public service who
are you sitting with who are you sitting
with well i'm sitting with a bunch of
guys from ap and cnn isn't there's no
celebrities i got no one there so this
guy's the msnbc guy and he's obviously in
the same milieu as uh cape heart because
he sounds so much like him totally why
at the end of the day it's good
for them even among the most you know
if you played this guy out of the
blue and i had to guess who you
would have said cape heart you said cape
heart no yeah free nations the whca what
we do is unique yeah it is an
example of american exceptionalism oh though we don't
have the current president with us this is
a more than example of douchebaggery this is
what i'm talking about tonight we wanted to
hear from some of those who have been
gracious enough to sit among the white house
press corps and here we go roll the
tape members of the white house correspondence association
distinguished guests ladies and gentlemen here i am
who was that from saturday night live who
did bush because that well do you think
of dana carvey who used to do george
w hw bush no this is w ain't
gonna ain't gonna yeah well so then they
you know then they played the clip of
that when it was cool when you had
people making fun of the president and the
president making fun of himself but they jumped
that shark so long ago anyway i was
just like i was they jumped the shark
when obama uh went after trump yeah yeah
yeah that's that's right and then everybody else
went after trump yeah and that was the
end of it yeah i i didn't pull
that clip it's funny but he can't take
a joke when it's just mean-spirited kind
of uh he i think he's got a
sense of humor he could take some chiding
but not when it's uh the way it
was with obama yeah it was obama uh
i don't think i clipped that he uh
oh here it is the imagine if i
did any of this clip here we go
imagine if i had done any of this
let me just i just i just want
to be clear about there's a lot of
his he does a lot of that in
this clip yes i miss him imagine that
imagine if i had pulled fox news's credentials
from the white house press court you're laughing
but no this is what's happening imagine if
i had said to law firms that were
representing parties that were upset with policies my
administration had initiated that you will not be
allowed into government buildings i don't think that
happened did it not that i know of
yeah government buildings it was a cia skiff
this is uh from the midas touch network
i'm still a fan come on we will
punish you economically for dissenting from the affordable
carrot what oh always is he talking what
is he talking about i have no idea
what he's talking or the iran deal the
iran deal we will ferret out students students
spooks who protest against my policies a genius
genius i didn't know where this was when
did he do that we can't believe you
can still he can still pack a house
people that oh obama wasn't that bad man
it's not as bad as this was the
mainstream the m5m is pretty much all they're
doing now is polls oh the country hates
what trump's doing 22 percent no one agrees
no one likes it but the best this
week came from the supreme court and this
was a this is mamut versus v taylor
this is about a montgomery school district so
montgomery is in is that virginia montgomery i
think it's montgomery no this is uh maryland
maryland yes thank you um about the uh
the lgbtq books in school yeah for the
fifth five for the kindergartners they got they
have the gay dog book and then there
was all these other snm books and leather
yes so i pulled two very funny stuff
well it's it's it'd be funny if it
wasn't so pathetic i mean it's just i
mean in the defense so here's uh supreme
court justice gorsuch first he's getting the details
on these books now this is just not
the books in the library this is being
taught as part of the english curriculum what
age do you um in montgomery county teach
students normally about human sexuality um i think
that it begins in either fourth or fifth
grade a human sexuality class family life and
human sexuality curriculum i'm not entirely sure starts
in fourth or fifth grade you think is
there anything you can point us to in
the record um i don't think so okay
and uh second these books are being used
in english class the wow you know what
he sounds a bit like when he said
when he starts someone's going to start this
off um what age do you um in
montgomery county teach students normally about human sexuality
tell me about your sexuality it's in your
dna man charlie rose and judge gorsuch same
guy um what age do you um in
montgomery county teach students normally about human sexuality
um i think that it begins in either
fourth or fifth grade a human sexuality class
family life and human sexuality curriculum okay i'm
not entirely sure starts in fourth or fifth
grade you think is there anything you can
point us to in the record on that
um i don't think so okay and uh
second these books are being used in english
class the division between english class and other
things in a second grade classroom doesn't really
exist you're sort of in a room with
a teacher and somehow i appreciate that i
i went to second grade too but but
but it's it's part of the english curriculum
that these books are being used and that's
i i thought that was yeah i'm not
i'm not fighting the premise i'm just saying
that's not the math class it's not it's
not the human sexuality class it's it is
certainly not the human sexuality class i'm just
sort of fighting the premise but there's a
neat distinction and they're being used in in
english language instruction at age three um some
of them so pride puppy was the book
that was used for the pre-kindergarten curriculum
that's fried puppy fried puppy longer in the
curriculum that's the one where by the way
this is unconscionable no kidding they would they
would introduce three years pre-kindergartener kids to
pride puppy and some of these other things
this is i never got brought up in
any of the conversations that i think they've
they've banned the term but this is pure
grooming completely it's grooming grooming grooming and who
who are these people trying to kid um
some of them so pride puppy was the
book that was used for the pre-kindergarten
curriculum that's no longer in the curriculum that's
the one where they are supposed to look
for the leather and things and bondage things
like that it's not bonding it's a woman
and a leather sex worker right no no
it's not correct no i thought i gosh
i i read it that's my favorite gosh
i i read it i saw it as
bondage i mean i might have to reevaluate
my thoughts drag queen and drag the leather
that they're pointing to is a woman in
a leather jacket um and one of the
words is drag queen and they're supposed to
look for those it is an option at
the end of the book correct yeah okay
so this goes on and by the way
they brought in uh comparisons to religion which
was very really confused uh the whole conversation
but this so that's one i'm glad you
got these clips yeah i mean he actually
was robbed the constitutional lawyer who sent him
to me he says this is this is
some good he said this is show material
yeah you know i i saw him almost
all the stuff i because it was fascinating
it's hard not to listen to it and
i don't know why i didn't clip it
but it's definitely important because it's insane well
and here's the part that is even more
insane you're you've included these in the english
language curriculum rather than the human sexuality curriculum
to influence students is that fair that's what
the district court found so the keyword influence
to influence students um i think to the
extent the district court found that it was
to influence it was to influence them towards
civility influence them towards civility the natural consequence
of being exposed whatever but to influence them
um in the manner that i just mentioned
yes so that right there is enough you
are not in school to influence children are
you i mean influence here is just another
nowadays propagandize yeah i mean obviously you want
your teacher to be a good influence but
that's a different different use of the verb
influence this is to propagandize children is really
this this is homeschool people homeschool and responding
to parents who are concerned you agree that
this there was some intemperate language used yeah
so uh and this is why it's um
mahmud versus taylor so it was the muslims
who said hey stop this nonsense they're the
ones that stood up and so i guess
there was a a a temperative uh atmosphere
in at the school board where people may
have gotten a little bit heated and then
this guy said something which you know well
you know was i didn't i didn't quite
mean it whatever uh i i don't know
that those were responding to parents who were
concerned this was after the fact for most
of these comments um and this was in
a very public setting which obviously got heated
and some intemperate comments were used certainly and
and i wanted to understand your your your
context that you're giving about the statement that
uh some muslim families it's unfortunate that this
that this issue put some muslim families on
the same side of an issue as white
supremacists and outright bigots i think in response
to justice sotomayor you're trying to give some
context to that i don't think i was
speaking directly about that comment i think that
comment was given or was made in june
which was several months after the decision to
withdraw the opt-outs was made i don't
have context for that statement now oh i
don't have context we understand the context you're
telling these muslim parents are just like these
these white supremacist nazis this has to stop
i can't even believe that the judges had
such decorum during this whole hearing it's really
and this goes far beyond just a couple
of books in the library they are influencing
children yes i wonder if um is it
a synonym grooming synonym influence let's see
38 similar words hmm doesn't show up but
it does in my dictionary that's it's this
is really nuts yeah the whole thing was
quite good and then katanji jackson brown guy
missed he kind of took the side of
the school district well of course well you
know if you don't like it go someplace
else yeah yeah yeah well then she's introduced
the idea of school choice yes of course
her final thing was homeschool she did say
that no that's that's the the final answer
obviously i got i got a note from
uh one of our one of our producers
but we don't but it is the final
answer except for the fact that we're being
taxed to death for the educational system and
we should be able to use it we
should be able to send this the kids
to a private public school and it should
be fine they should learn how to read
write and and do math yeah and but
no they're being taught about gay dogs i
mean it's beyond me pride puppy is not
a gay dog just search for search for
the for the woman in leather boots on
the ground peer network for mental health disorders
among kids from one of our producers just
pulled the kids from public school why why
because of a cultural issue based in our
rural schools that was persistently spreading amongst the
children we are privy to more knowledge because
my wife worked for the school as well
there was a chronically online over socialized seventh
grader who determined she was a therian you
know what a therian is i didn't know
what a therian is a therian wow that's
a new one to me too kids who
identify as an animal oh furry yeah well
the therian within three months she had convinced
almost 70 of the girls of this in
this small school that they also identified as
animals i see yeah the social that's what's
with the social contagion i say convinced because
she predatorily targeted the younger children to gain
more self-assurance in her position children as
young as four years old were asking their
parents to buy them tails and masks to
go to school in it worked its way
back up the classes the data from the
school shows it was mostly all girls from
4 to 14 and only a couple of
mentally unstable boys there's no bias here with
our producer the school refused well you know
yeah a couple of guys let the guy
get in on this action hey all the
chicks are wearing tails i'm in the school
refused to acknowledge what was happening and do
anything about it so i agree it's 100
percent the peer network social networks including youtube
and the internet our children started coming home
and using language and saying they are identifying
as a cat or a dog and then
we have to have some long conversations about
it and it's dangerous and what it really
meant they got the idea uh they got
the idea to understand the severity of identify
and went to school to declare that they
were mistaken but would love to play as
a dog or cat etc that was our
compromise that's a big compromise not much of
one we ultimately decided to pull the kids
halfway through the year to home school parents
who did not pull their kids are reporting
their kids are more and more adamant about
it defying them fighting with them trying to
pursue their therian self biting them biting their
ankles uh other parents are starting to try
and buy these children the tails and garb
that they need to fully identify as said
animal in defiance of this is a great
note showing that it takes one parent one
kid and school scared off a lawsuit over
this woke language to really ruin a school
district so i guess that they uh it
was getting this is this is not okay
and good for you anonymous producer parent good
for you although i wouldn't even gone with
the with the compromise no forget that put
up with that crap yeah so this is
what's happening the internet killing everybody slowly oh
goodness well it doesn't have to no it
well no it doesn't have to uh al
gore was on bill maher friday yeah i
saw that uh you know what i wanted
to get a i didn't get a clip
from that i did i'm i did i'm
glad you did but you know i wanted
to clip i wanted to get uh just
to just another one of these i didn't
clip i have a million clips but i
you know i don't clip you don't clip
them i got all these clips that i
didn't clip because you know i got clips
that i didn't clip i got i got
a lot of clips that i did clip
you got up on the wrong side of
the bed you know that's what happened that's
what it was but i wanted to get
steve bannon when he was on yeah i
think the week before and bannon is the
one who claims that he's the one who
started the trump 2028 idea oh really yes
he says he started it and it was
then they they're looking into and he says
they think they can legally do it and
he wants to do it and he went
on and on and on so the whole
thing's a ban and scam clearly although it
is the most arrogant character he's just you
know but president trump unveiled it in the
oval office to frau ingraham he said come
here take a look at this take a
look at this you're talking about the hat
yeah yeah they had which i think eric
or don jr did it i don't know
who did the hat but he didn't say
but he never said he was gonna he
thought it was he never actually stated that
he's gonna do it he's around the bush
of course not the sad thing is he
knows he's not gonna do it it's just
bullcrap but but ban is taking it very
unlike us and every other observer who thinks
that trump's a goof and he likes to
do these kinds of things ban is taking
it very seriously well let me paraphrase from
the text group here in fredericksburg texas hill
country look at this the libs are losing
their minds and it could constitutionally it can
be done that's what bannon says yeah well
that's what they did it's very clear that
it can't be done it's it's well you
should tell buzzkill jr that because he's all
this is just another version i got to
i got the money in the bank i'm
do i see it this is just another
version of uh marshall law it's it's another
version of marshall law it's another version of
the grid going down another version of micro
dots it's going okay you don't you didn't
have you didn't have to hurt me you
didn't have to pull me in i've already
repented for all that um well i'm not
condemning you and uh 10 days of darkness
i forget about that one and then when
we come back after 10 days of darkness
everything it's going to be a great reset
everything will be different and we'll all be
billionaires because we bought xrp i'm telling you
the xrp thing is still in play i
forgot about the xrp thing it you know
with the quantum off world servers yes there
were there were people who were you're not
you're in the you're right in the dead
center of this i i really think that's
great i love it and the thing is
i can i can laugh with these people
about it and like did you buy any
more xrp just like yeah it's going to
2000 i hear if it go i have
a thousand xrp that i bought at like
five cents and i was about right i
didn't even realize i had it until i
looked at an old one oh i got
this and got some xlm too and they're
like it's going to tooth as if it
goes to 2000 i'm buying you a car
because i will have two million dollars not
you john i keep telling that oh no
what about me no you're not getting a
car you know you know no no um
so anyway here is al gore on bill
maher and here he is responding to the
speech that he gave which we pulled apart
on the last episode of the best podcast
in the universe we generally have the same
view of the trump administration yeah um yeah
yeah you were in the news this week
for invoking nazis well i didn't do what
jd vance did and call the trump america's
hitler when he did that a few years
ago well he's what he actually said was
i think about trump a lot and he
could be an asshole just like nixon or
he could be america's hitler oh that's and
i remember thinking oh so the good option
i i like i like how bill maher
is defending with facts is that he's just
an asshole well but i think there's a
big difference in comparing someone to hitler he
i mean we heard the clip he compared
him to hitler it was it but oh
no no i was talking about the frankfurt
school on the one hand which you which
i don't do i i think that's a
big mistake and i said that in the
speech that you're referring to that's a unique
form of evil that should not ever be
compared to anything but we are not living
up to our responsibility uh to our constitution
if we don't remain alert to warning signs
that we know from history not only from
the third reich but from a whole series
of strongman dictators when they start trying to
tell people what to think when they start
trying to expand their power so that they
push the congress around push the judiciary around
and try to consolidate dictatorship the first steps
on that road are ones that we should
see as warning signs and those warning signs
are your own facts your own truth lies
nazi is a hard word yeah to use
with nuance so so when you when you
bring that word out you know i i
feel like they're the goat of evil you
know and and so it just conflates i
agree with that i agree with that but
if you look at what i actually said
in that in that speech there was a
group of german philosophers that went back after
the war and conducted a kind of moral
autopsy and they said one of them said
that the first step on the descent into
hell in that case was and i quote
the conversion of all questions of truth into
questions of power they attack the distinction between
true and false and when i see and
hear over and over again the assertion of
complete inaccuracies that ukraine is responsible for starting
sure the war with russia uh there's so
many of them and and they keep asserting
these things expecting us to believe that the
climate crisis is a hoax invented by the
chinese that windmills cause cancer that clean is
that coal is clean uh and they they
try to assert with the force of power
their own special version of alternative facts but
i guarantee that the side of the country
that voted for trump they hear nazi and
they just go oh you're calling us nazis
first of all it's a bit of a
false premise as bad as they are and
also it just says to them well you
just hate us bill maher he may be
part of the saving grace of the country
i have to do a uh-oh or
the one listener out there has a history
or has a background in science made a
point that i made an error oh when
i said when i was talking about clean
coal i'm glad that you played that clip
now it reminded me because i was gonna
do it and i forgot all about it
of course as usual and it was lignite
is the worst coal not the best coal
the best coal is actually something called anthracite
uh which is super clean coal and lignite
is the dirty dirty coal but even though
we can kind of burn it uh in
these floating beds but i i don't know
why i said lignite i know what it
is and it was a blunder i'm surprised
i only got one note from one guy
well we got a lot of notes about
um uh cold water creek about the manhattan
project waste yes and there and the notes
were all over the map well we got
ones like this please revisit the cold water
creek nuclear story from show 1758 minute marker
40.02 to 46.20 you and john
were clearly lost first not knowing about it
that's my favorite not knowing about it second
saying repeatedly it was in pennsylvania and thirdly
dismissing it as simply fear mongering easy does
it people were just we're just here the
podcast podium you can just say hey you
know you were wrong um this is what's
going on and there really is something happening
there and a family of mine uh has
indeed uh you know gotten sick from stuff
that's probably around here but no waste from
the u.s nuclear bomb project was in
fact buried in missouri and is in fact
still making people ill today also john the
most inexpensive geiger counters under 800 will not
detect alpha radiation oh my goodness mea culpa
um i still hold the belief that it
was a story that was brought back to
fear monger against nuclear yeah i think you're
right that i believe that is correct exemplification
of that idea is the actually we had
another there's another story somebody pointed out then
sent it to you and i think you
may have got looked into it which is
a story that had resurfaced two or three
or four times over the last four or
five years which is something you've spotted a
lot and i'd say the baby i'd say
say the baby eating uh thing is a
good example on today's yeah yeah and that
was from five years ago yeah six so
yeah recycling of of memes yes it happens
and tropes it happens so it's very common
and it's like uh it was a good
say it worked back there in those days
let's do it again so no sooner had
the president signed his uh ai in school
executive order then we start we start getting
inundated with ai in the schools so i'd
call this propaganda too because remember it was
public private partnerships so this is about the
abhi robots the abhi robot so the kids
are sitting in the abhi lab and they
all have a computer in front of them
the computer has a camera it's scanning their
eyes to see what they're looking at on
the screen and the little cute little robot
sits on a shelf they each have their
own little robot and the robot you know
his eyes blink and it's you remember that
dog remember the sony dog ibo ibo thank
you ibo this is abhi hmm i wonder
if it's also from japan so yeah so
it's it's kind of like that only it's
more robot-esque but it's not much more
you know it has some it can move
its arms and it swivels its body but
it's doing great for the kids um it's
become like a mascot meet abhi we didn't
know what abby was but it came with
a promise of uplifting our test scores the
ai program is aimed at kindergarten through fifth
graders and helps both students and teachers in
the learning process they never complain becoming abby
lab it's like miss miller we're going to
abby lab today you know it's like it's
like yes we're going to the abby lab
the robot uses the camera in the student's
computer to track eye movements and their attention
span it helps them stay on track we'll
actually pause the math or reading lesson call
them out by name and say hey you're
not paying attention let's make sure we stay
focused before we move on to the next
problem the program uses a student's account to
track their progress by subject um abby customized
um the lesson that they're getting so children
feel that at the end of the day
that abby is meeting their needs abby is
capable of adapting to students learning styles and
celebrates those who are succeeding this new frontier
may be worrisome to some parents but creators
say abby won't take the place of teachers
it's an additional tool tools have a place
right they don't they don't supplant they don't
replace but they should have a place that
helps empower teachers in a way that gives
them the ability to do more in their
classroom and the school is seeing positive results
one teacher says this is accelerating the kids
learning early in the school year the one
that comes to lab are moving up into
second grade abby lab has really helped them
reaching the goals that they need to reach
in first grade and starting them with a
solid foundation in second grade so apparently it's
working it's one of our trolls said is
it like one of those monkeys with the
symbols yeah that's kind of what it is
a mechanical version of the monkey with the
symbols oh you did a ching ching you
did a good job you know i did
some vibe coding uh over the weekend which
is a vibe coding it's a new word
i learned vibe coding vibe coding is where
you uh uh program computer code with ai
vibe coding because i have a project i'm
working on this project and it it's the
same thing that i talked about last time
it makes a mistake and then you know
it's oh i see i made a mistake
because i give it the error log and
then and then before you know it it's
like well you have to recompile your kernel
i mean literally it takes you in circles
it goes around and then because i don't
know what i'm doing i'm not a coder
and i i want it desperately like help
me it's not a very difficult program but
help me do it and because i'm not
a programmer i expect the ai and i
said i'm not a programmer and i brought
up what jc said about this on a
previous show because you made this complaint before
which is that ai coding is no good
if you can't code so i want to
take yes i want to take a little
bit further because for me coding with ai
is almost like working with a genius kindergarten
who has adhd and has a box of
animal crackers you know you can't can't focus
it's all over them it's nuts and then
i realize we have to apply the man
gelman amnesia thesis to ai remind us what
that is man gelman is where you read
something in the news man gelman amnesia where
you read something in the newspaper about a
topic you absolutely are an expert in and
it's wrong ergo you can assume that every
other article in the newspaper about things you
don't know about is going to be wrong
that's the man gel the uh man gelman
amnesia effect why is it called amnesia you
think because you forget you're the amnesia part
uh oh the you know i because you
forget that hey they they don't know what
they're talking about so when it comes to
aviation you know it's like well they don't
then they rarely have it right with accidents
and all the design i mean even with
what we're talking about earlier um with uh
with the phone line well you know it
was a dirty line it was a commercial
and it had didn't have a firewall like
okay sure yeah that's what makes a line
not dirty is having a firewall so that's
bullcrap so then we can presume that everything
else they say is bullcrap and by the
way that's probably the same with us too
however we know a lot about we know
a little about a lot don't we know
a lot about a little yeah we do
we know a lot about a little and
a little about a lot yeah which is
better than most people but when i do
podcasting who just shoot this shit so when
it comes to creating podcasts i would say
ai gets a below passing grade it can't
do podcasts it's always the same thing well
let's take a deep dive yeah uh so
if we know that it cannot properly do
podcasting it probably can't do great coding either
could i and so back to buzzkill jr
could i maybe use it for some things
in podcasting yeah you can make some isos
for the end of the show that's about
it i have some for today's show but
first i'd like to thank you for your
currency in the morning to you the man
who put the c in his very own
podcast podium say hello to my friend on
the other end the one the only mr
john oh shoot now
we're talking 2473 trolls peak time is listening
at troll room.io tuning into the live
stream which is good and the trolls have
been found and the trolls are now all
turning into baby eaters yeah it doesn't surprise
me trolls like eating babies so you can
join them at troll room.io or if
you want to you can listen live on
a modern podcast app go to podcast apps
.com i like podcast guru that's the one
i've been using someone just asked me today
what should i use well you should try
them all i would say try them all
there's a whole there's a cornucopia of podcast
apps to use they have many more features
than your apple or your spotify or anything
else you can find including the live bat
signal which is for all of the no
agenda uh live podcasts on no agenda stream
i think they pretty much all um are
using the live the live title is called
the live tag the lit live lit tag
is what it's called just live and you'll
be notified so when darren and and larry
go live with planet rage which is typically
i want to say that i don't even
know what day it is but it's always
right around the time i'm walking the dog
then my poop my phone goes like oh
oh the boys it's planet rage and i
listen live while i'm walking around also you
get chapters you get transcripts all kinds of
benefits and that's interesting adam where can you
find all these podcasts is there a compendium
or a list of what they are and
where they are well i'm glad you asked
john i would go to podcast apps.com
that would take you to this entire list
it shows you it's a compendium and it
shows you all of the features they support
it's well worth your time and trouble wow
thanks thank you podcasting 2.0 people thank
you for that um we are value for
value um which means we will not get
a seat at the new media spot in
the uh in the white house press chair
we don't we're not being put on the
chair it's like getting a time out congratulations
you're now in the white house you're in
the timeout spot but that also means that
we rely entirely on the value that you
feel you get from what we do and
send back to us that's something we started
in in our first year said this is
never we can never do ads not because
you know we yes i didn't print this
out but we did i you know since
i sent out the second note i get
a lot of feedback i try to answer
most of it about why the donations are
down oh and so uh and they all
get perked back up enough so that it's
not nothing to complain about but i got
the one my favorite one of some one
of our producers it's because you're communist he
says you're asking for money and then you're
taking it from us and then you're passing
it to yourselves and he went on and
on about it he says the communist model's
no good it was described to me yesterday
at lunch as god's economy i thought that
was a good one i like that too
so i don't know about the communist one
no we just decided early on that and
a lot of people think well it's good
you know because if you had ads you'd
be deplatformed and people would pull their ads
so yeah oh yeah we bet we would
this show would not be existing if we
had used another model but that's not the
prime reason the prime reason we didn't want
ads was we didn't want to have meetings
with advertisers well that's your main reason because
you always had to do that hi i'm
the monkey boy remember me from mtv one
nanny nanny walker walker walker hey everybody headbangers
ball yeah baby with some butthead now buy
some ads yeah yeah who right and then
you had didn't have the money from the
ads go to the sales group anyway yeah
yeah yeah and commissions everywhere and then yeah
it's no good yeah and then they have
to be uh try you need a traffic
department to deal with traffic department yeah so
instead we said you know what if you
get any value from the show send it
back to us and that was kind of
an experiment and it worked and people liked
it they liked the idea of supporting us
for the value they get like like even
uh the the producer from horowitz's drunk party
it was probably a florida key party if
you ask me and uh and she said
you know what way does that mean you
don't know what wife swapping yeah that's key
parties yeah that that's a big thing in
florida no good days are over no it's
hey i'm telling you remember we had a
big group there in the in florida and
they they disbanded all of a sudden i
think was a key party gone wrong well
that's interesting yeah that's a big disappointment i
forgot what the name of that uh the
group yeah it was a good good group
it was a good group and no one's
ever meeting all the time it's like indiana
yeah no one picked it up although we
do have a a meter report for leo
bravo knocked it out of the park today
he had 20 people at uh at his
los angeles meet people coming down from washington
it's a nice report um no so instead
we just ask you to contribute back time
talent treasure that's the three t's of the
value for value model it's now become a
thing people talk about oh i'm value for
value oh really yeah where did you come
up with that well a man's from the
bitcoiners well i don't think so but that's
all right it's good yes more stolen valor
value for value.info if you want to
learn more about it value number four value
.info and so people can do all kinds
of things we've had people do many things
throughout the ages to support the show in
fact the reason that you still get no
agenda at the top of all your google
searches because one of our early producers was
an seo expert and he cemented us inside
the algorithms no agenda is this show when
you're looking for it also news with no
agenda i think we pop up at the
top of the list so that was a
very valuable contribution back to the show and
of course another valuable contribution is the artwork
that our artists diligently are making during the
live show because they're using that modern podcast
app they get alerted oh yeah that's right
i gotta listen i gotta make some art
and then they upload that to noagendaartgenerator.com
another fine website that one of our producers
sir paul couture has provided and kept running
for us mostly for the past 10-15
years and the artwork for episode 1758 which
we titled scream circle was a fine ai
generated piece which just made us laugh from
francisco scaramanga it was our black pope done
as a muppet with the odds of him
being chosen 33 to 1 and it hit
home people loved it they were laughing their
butts off and when i see on x
people say the minute this popped up i
had to pull over and and get the
podcast i had to listen to what was
going on it was very it's very funny
and it's it's something about the goofball smile
i think that just makes a goofy smile
it's really good um let's see if there's
any other things that we looked at that
were close seconds not really no i remember
because typically we do the credits liked a
few pieces but none of them yeah getting
the mark you like the uh watermelon juice
from matthew dropko i thought you liked it
no you liked it you liked it i
i was like kind of simple the mustache
wedding was cute but we didn't think anyone
would really understand that one is pretty obscure
oh the one that i liked you put
the kibosh on right away and not without
merit was the two popes doing rock paper
scissors oh yeah the black pope and the
white pope and you're like that's no good
look at their hands it's all a is
no good yeah the one hand the guy's
fingers were a mile long and the other
fist couldn't even form a fist it was
terrible it's too bad because the the concept
was good the concept was good but no
you also liked the mustache wedding you said

tool and i guess i guess it's working
for them i mean just like uh i
remember when i think a lot of artists

out yeah i'm sure it's good to do
production work because you still it's still the
concept without the concept you know the concept

plus that's true and i would like to

the reason why i was able to stay
strong in the times of the covid vaccinations
when my employer would have liked to see
me properly filled my properly filled out vaccination
passport shame on our union by the way
but i resisted the back successfully instead it
was necessary for me and the other vaccine
skeptics to visit one of the many corona
testosterone around the city each working day four
months the other vaccinated colleagues of mine were
exempted by this rule and were free to
just visit work sometimes coughing and sniffing to
this day it's no kidding to this day
i'm very thankful for the both of you
informing all of us back in the days
about the reports of all kinds of horrible
side effects by this insane gene therapy four
more years and i have a bonus clip
i have a bonus clip this is from
the bbc this is bbc very famous for
their snooker have you seen this clip of
the snooker snooker snooker snooker the the game
snooker yeah the game that's like pool but
with different like pool and the smaller and
the rules are different so listen to the
commentators from the bbc with this particular snooker
play yeah very controlled i seem to remember
reading an interview i think where ben was
talking about 62 after what he feels was
the covid jab and then he immediately feeling
63 unusual but his hand was shaking a
lot and i was hadn't seen him play
since then but no sign of that now
that's good looks rock solid on the shot
yes his hands do look steady remember when
we had the chat they'd say to you
can you please stick around for five minutes
or ten minutes make sure you feel okay
and it was in that five or ten
minutes he either fainted or collapsed it was
one of the two then he felt fine
and he went home and he collapsed again
so in the immediate aftermath of his jab
he collapsed twice 75 and ever since then
it's been a very very gradual up and
down return to full health and i know
there are certain weeks where in the early
days he couldn't practice more than an hour
a day because it would be so exhausting
i think he's learned to to manage that
still has periods if he's feeling tired where
it comes back a bit but by and
large touchwood he is healthy again but the
normalization of this is amazing to me worst
bonus clip ever it works better with the
video i guess they're eating the dogs that's
true oh man i got the wrong that's
true again how can that be it's true
what is this it's true i know but

it breaks up there's a thing inside yeah
and there's a trick to opening it i
don't know what it is as a policy
i don't eat candy that people send me
to the po boxes yeah unless it comes
from a company like you know those little
john's guys the uh he also sent me
two uh japanese 2000 yen notes which i

segment coming up soon our formula is this
we hit people in the mouth order
well i i have a report on uh
the re-emergence of our old buddies our
old buddies the white helmets the oh you
mean the guys uh from uh from syria
those white helmets yeah uh the ones who
faked all of those uh those pictures yeah
huh okay they're back in action now they're
firemen but they're still the same group and
where are they now they're still still they
came down from the hills and they're still
in syria but now they're downtown this is
the white helmets report from pbs during syria's
long civil war emergency responders wearing white helmets
became famous they were known for running into
harm's way to rescue civilians from collapsed buildings
in the aftermath of regime airstrikes the white
helmets were nominated for the nobel peace prize
and featured in an oscar-winning documentary well
now with syria's dictator bashar al-assad gone
the white helmets have a new mission and
a new challenge npr's lauren frayer takes us
to a damascus firehouse to see them in
action oh wow this is all burned so
we're rushing into this emergency here firefighters rush
into a burning building in the syrian capital
firefighter tarik talib says they managed to extinguish
the flames in time and no one was
injured residents are gobsmacked they got here so
quickly and they didn't ask for an says
mohammed bassem saeed a retiree who lived through
syria's civil war and says he never got
help like this these new firefighters wear gold
and navy uniforms and iconic white helmets for
most of the war the white helmets operated
only in rebel held areas dictator bashar al
-assad had decked the capital with billboards vilifying
them as traitors and terrorists i never believed
any of that though saeed says thanking the
firefighters profusely thank you when asat fell in
december a white helmets convoy rolled south from
rebel territory and into damascus i felt joy
grief and shock altogether says amr zarife a
white helmet who's from damascus but hadn't been
here since 2018 when he responded to a
chemical weapons attack by asad's forces when you
do a documentary about a group which is
clearly hoaxing shouldn't your award be taken back
i would think so because the white house
that never happens the white house correspondence association
they uh um i think they handed out
an award or or they highlighted the the
documentary or no the news report about how
the biden biden's mental health was covered up
and they're giving out an award for that
while they all participated in the cover-up
isn't that amazing it's nothing well i think
some explanation will reveal it this is the
the clips of reveal oh and i think
you'll hear you'll figure this out uh why
this has nothing to come of it and
why the white helmets are still being uh
extolled here we go lives in a damascus
firehouse where the white helmets have set up
new headquarters their founder raed saleh is now
in syria's cabinet and the volunteer force he
founded 12 years ago is extending its reach
for the first time to the entire country
it's the journey of the syrian people and
the syrian revolution deputy leader farooq habib says
their workload has actually quadrupled even though the
war is over most of our country is
destroyed half of our people lost their homes
and they are displaced either internally or they
became refugees okay that was uh that wasn't
the killer clip this we'll wrap it up
with this one this is killer clip this
is the one now our main mission is
to deal with the legacy of the war
help to find the missing persons we're dealing
with the mass graves cluster munition they're also
repairing roads and water pipes these are people
who started as shopkeepers teachers gas station attendants
and engineers habib was a banker i was
a regional manager at a private bank in
syria when the revolution started some people carried
guns some people left and some people volunteered
in the opposition held northwest the white helmets
served about five million people habib says they're
now stretching to eventually meet the needs of
more than 20 million syrians even as their
budget is cut usaid the foreign aid agency
dismantled by the trump administration it used to
be the white helmet's biggest funder oh gee
wouldn't you know it oh those horrible trump
people horrible so we're funding the white helmets
yeah of course we were the american taxpayer
we were funding the white is picking up
the tab yeah we were funding um i
have a couple middle east clips that i'd
like to play we're running out of time
for today but i think that we are
nearing a solution for palestine as there's been
some political moves during a convention in ramallah
mamoud abbas named the first ever vice president
of the palestinian liberation organization 64 year old
hussein elshek who has long been considered one
of abbas's closest aides elshek was born in
the west bank and spent 11 years in
an israeli prison in his youth then went
on to become a veteran politician for the
fatah movement in 2022 he was named secretary
general of the plo which oversees the palestinian
authority and was made responsible for civilian affairs
at the time the appointment generated criticism that
he was being groomed to replace abbas but
elshek insisted he would push for a democratic
process any future president of the palestinian people
can only be a president elected by the
palestinian people through the ballot box the palestinian
president must be elected the palestinian president will
not be appointed he will not come to
power by force or because of some regional
international interest or arrive on an israeli tank
abbas has not held elections since 2006 and
is the president of both the plo and
the palestinian authority his decision to promote elshek
as vice president is widely considered a move
to assure a successor and to appease arab
and western powers that have pushed for the
organization's reform and for them to have a
central role in the post-war governance of
the gaza strip this guy this hussein elshek
he's a ghost i mean he's been around
but there's nothing you can find on this
guy yeah and he looks like he looks
like he's just he looks like he's been
in the west you know he's just one
of those guys so to me that says
moves are getting made they got to put
someone in place who can't have abbas uh
he'll be uh yeah they'll have a they'll
have a vote i'm sure and they'll bring
him in so i find that encouraging one
of my friends is in tehran right now
and he's been sending me pictures man the
media does such a horrible job of psy
-oping us about iran i mean it almost
looks like the iran pictures from the 70s
you've got modern cars modern buildings lots of
women without head coverings uh makeup they they
just look just no this is a lie
it's they've got a hockey team they've got
all kinds of i mean it's really it
looks good it looks take pictures out of
moscow they're even better well yeah but moscow
we know but but tehran now it's still
a it's still a stinking city says it's
a lot of pollution but it looks really
modern and beautiful whenever we see iran on
television it's a bunch of towel heads walking
around in dust thanks m5m so yeah so
um so we're currently in negotiations with uh
with the iranians and i found a report
on deutsche villa uh about these negotiations staying
with iran a third round of talks about
a new nuclear deal between tehran and washington
has reportedly begun in oman iranian state tv
showed its delegation in muscat and announced the
negotiations started midday officials from both sides are
expected to hold in-depth discussions over how
to limit iran's nuclear program in exchange for
the lifting of some of the crushing economic
sanctions the u.s has imposed on the
islamic republic for more i'm joined by nilo
fargalami from dw's persian service good to see
you where do the talks stand right now
yeah seems to take longer this time a
post on x from iran's foreign ministry spokesperson
says talks continues in a serious atmosphere and
there's no comment from u.s team yet
earlier today an iranian official also told reuters
that the expert level negotiations are a difficult
complicated and and serious according to both sides
the latest two rounds were positive and seem
to be talking about the details on this
stage and iran's emphasizes particularly on lifting sanctions
but also there was some reports that iran's
missile program is an obstacle to progress iran
has previously said they won't negotiate on defense
capabilities but we have to wait and see
so the question is of course what do
the iranians want now trump wants a deal
what does iran want of course they also
want an agreement because they know that the
other options are not very pleasant let's not
forget that the islamic republic is in a
vulnerable position in these negotiations the regime is
facing various domestic and international crisis and challenges
its proxies in the region have been severely
weakened and the shadow of war hangs over
iran in addition to that any agreement that
only preserve iran's nuclear program is a relief
as there is a possibility of a complete
dismantling and then most importantly and the reason
why i brought up my my friend in
tehran is what do the iranian people want
what about iranians what did they actually want
um for them like it might be minor
economic relief for example but the iranian people
have experienced 2015 deal at the time iran's
economic situation was not as bad as it
is today but according to experts even that
deal failed to improve the quality of life
of iranian people or even change the social
situation and freedom in iran instead the government
used the additional resources to further strengthen these
proxies in the region and suppress its citizens
inside iran there are different views on that
some are waiting for the final result some
are in favor of an agreement and others
are pessimistic like for example a large group
of iranians consider any aggrament a failure and
raise this question of why the iranian people
should pay the price for the islamic republic's
policies yeah i think the iranian people well
they're more american than we realize of course
just like the russians yeah well they won't
be if we bomb them no well no
they won't be hey i just got a
new video in so that meeting between president
trump and president volodymyr zelensky initially they had
three chairs in the temple and macron thought
that he was going to be sitting down
with them and you can see trump like
you know not shaking his extended hand then
touching him on the arm and then macron
leaves and they remove the third chair that's
interesting well that's interesting yeah that's not that
has not been reported well no only on
your no agenda show at almost the end
of the show i might add um we
are running late but if you have something
you want to sneak in there something that
you think is some shorties i got shorties
i got a couple of different shorties let's
do the real id upcoming real id fiasco
which is going to cause nothing but trouble
at the airports in just over two weeks
a major change is coming for air travelers
across the u.s starting next month the
tsa will require adults flying domestically to present
a real id compliant driver's license or other
approved identification entities christina corona we're standing outside
of a packed dmv here in the city
where many people are lining up to get
their real id before may 7th you may
begin the process online however you will have
to finish it at the dmv soon travelers
will need a real id to board domestic
flights after the may 7th 2025 deadline it
will also be required to enter federal facilities
like military bases and courthouses without a compliant
id travelers risk being turned away at airport
security this is part of the real id
act of 2005 born out of the 9
-11 commissions push for stronger id standards real
ids are marked with the store or a
design like california's bear outline other acceptable ids
include u.s passports military ids dhs trusted
traveler cards like global entry and acceptable photo
ids issued by a federally recognized tribal nation
indian tribe just to name a few to
get a real id you'll need documents proving
your full legal name social security number address
and legal presence one southern california resident shared
his experience navigating the process i've been here
for maybe 20 minutes so not too bad
um yeah the line's moving pretty slow but
yeah not too bad a lot of stuff
was online like they had us upload our
document like some documents like a birth certificate
or a water bill to prove you live
here and um just like basic information like
address things like that just to prove you
live here in california the dmv is extending
hours at select offices including three in the
bay area on saturday may 3rd to help
meet the deadline that's so american you can
show us your social security card or a
water bill either one is just a water
bill water bill you know did i tell
you about my my global entry experience coming
back into the country um not that i
can think of so you know so tina
and i because because you know it's like
you're a big fan of this but i
hate it i i hate the idea that
i had to do it but you know
we always have to transfer either in atlanta
or dallas or houston and you know you
have two hours typically to get from your
international flight to your domestic flight and you
know we stood an hour in line for
an hour and a half when we came
back from italy and luckily our other flight
was delayed but it you know it's not
fun and then you see all these jimokes
oh i've got i've got global entry i'm
like i want to be that guy so
and you get tsa pre-check with it
as well so i'm completely in the system
but they give you a card you don't
need this card you go through the global
entry you stand in front of the thing
takes a picture of your face it's all
integrated boom keep walking and then as you're
then you as you're walking up towards the
custom guy says curry you're good to go
it's the whole system is all facial recognition
it's all it's all implemented we're all in
the everyone's it's this is our our future
life is all facial recognition it's quite disgusting
so this real id is just a little
step because when you get your real id
guess what photo facial recognition it's all going
to be facial and they don't tell you
they don't tell you what they're going to
use it for that's really it's it's gonna
use it to track you down that's what
they're going i'm gonna show my salute by

shot go check it out you certainly want
to they're global they have meetups all over
the world if you can't find one near

that's for sure now
i'm looking at my quad screen here would
you believe oh man the more things change
the more they stay the same do you
know what's happening right now on capitol hill
filibuster booker and jeffries are holding a sit
-in oh not a sit-in a sit
-in they're holding a sit-in we're sitting
and we're not gonna budge it's like me
holding a sit-in in my living room
oh i'm gonna hold a sit-in until
people change their ways what are you doing
if it's not on msnbc it's not a
sit-in my friend you've got to get
the cameras on you all right time to
choose the iso for the end of the
show i only have one i don't think
it's i mean it's okay but uh i
think you're gonna knock me out of the
park here i see you have one two
three you've got four so i'll just play
mine and then we'll pick one of your
winners okay sure you know what dvorak says
he says bullcrap there you go that's uh
that's no i knew okay so these are
all the ss and you'll see the reason
why when you start listening to them okay
and we'll start at the bottom uh because
once there's a dupe in here that was
done twice done by one of our uh
one of our special producers and this will
start with bozos these two guys are not
bozos oh scott simon nice these two guys
are not bozos that's pretty close for ai
these two guys are not bozos except the
end okay what else you got podcast that's
what i call a great podcast we need
to say i'm scott simon we need him
to tag himself all right what else you
got well then it'd be i think it
was borderline illegal already you think i'm pretty
sure uh we'll get a note uh so
now we have a variation of the same
one because our producer decided that he's gonna
it's a guy who does scott simon he's
got this he's got a lot of what
you're saying this is not ai this is
a guy no these are all ai oh
okay but the producer who does scott's the
scott simon materials is from his ai oh
okay he's trained trained to train the voice
train the model yes and it's a good
model uh in fact the the one with
the horn is is his okay here we
go something one wow that was something right
and two wow that was something right i
still like that's what i call a great
podcast i think that's the best one okay
i like it a lot i like it
so much that i'm gonna start the tip
of the day jcd
a lot of people want me to do
some generalized wine tips i'm gonna do one
a wine tip finally a wine tip yes
we all we all love the wine this
is a type of wine i'm going to
discuss a type of wine it's a sweet
wine that people should check out and they're
available if you go to another if you're
in a town where there's a liquor store
that we have a wine guy who knows
anything that you're doing you'll probably find an
example of this product it's a rhone wine
it's a sweet wine and i've discussed on
the show sauternes which is i think one
of the great sweet wines that you have
the the one that's that's what you get
the ladies with you the ladies love this
they love this and then there's also german
sweet wines that are worth noting noting which
include um baron auslase and trocken baron oh
the truck and baron yes truck and barons
are very expensive and it means a baron
auslase it means it's a late harvest of
specific berries and trocken baron auslase is a
wine that is dried there's basically raisins turned
into wine uh and there's another type of
german sweet wine called an ice wine which
doesn't really hold a candle i don't think
to these other two but the wine i'm
going to promote which is an inexpensive obscure
wine that you can find anyone who knows
anything about wine will know about this balmes
de venice can you spell that for the
b-a-u-m-e-s-d-e
-v-e-n-i-s-e balmes de
venice and balmes de venice and it's used
and sometimes referred to as muscat balmes de
venice but the appellation i believe is balmes
de venice but it's a muscat wine that
is incredibly sweet and and it's not super
sweet that's it's not a sickening sweet wine
it's just a incredibly floral like the best
it's a very specific muscat grape called the
orange muscat and it's only pretty much i
mean muscats are very variety of muscats are
grown all over the place a lot of
them are table grapes but this particular grape
which is a specialty of this area makes
a fabulous product this muscat balmes de venice
is a killer a killer wine and if
you see it try it how much can
we expect to pay for the balmes de
venice 15 bucks maybe that's that's the price
that's that that's what makes it a great
tip of the day and you're not an
expense not an expensive rare expensive wine like
like a half ball of trockenbeeren auslase that
can cost you 150 and what do we
uh do we drink the balmes de with
dinner or uh after dinner after dinner and
it's perfect with almost any dessert and uh
do you drink it in a big wine
glass one of those little petite thingies you
could drink it in anything you want in
a paper cup it doesn't matter the stuff
is really good there it is tipoftheday.net
noagendafund.com well
you may have to wait for things but
you get such a fabulous tip of the
day at the end it just makes it
all worth it doesn't it i like it
i'm gonna go out and get me a
balmes de venice balmes balmes balmes de venice
