What are you kidding me? What is kind of a pitch is this Adam
curry, John C Dvorak.
17th 2013 timeframe gizmo nation media assassination Episode Four
Niner six.
This is no agenda
in mind Geiger is in the Travis heights hideout. We're so Komiks
MoPhO in the capital of the drone Star State in the morning
everybody. I'm Adam curry and from
Northern Silicon Valley am John C. Dvorak. Raglan buzzkill
try that on the Thursday I was ready for you this time. No, you
haven't given no more snappy openings
now now when I can't get this printer to work
we had a little pre show banter John is very upset about his
printer
I got two actually two printers are down
or down printer hold on the other one
was killed Jr. The big office printer Yeah, I put in a new way
Now
hold on a second we mean the big office printer What are you
running there? What kind of are you in your house or what are
you in what are you doing
the big office printer prints on both sides and all that Oh,
network printer but router? Oh boy. And apparently this router
is not talking to me it's talking to it and it sees it and
says hi printer i Are you doing? But I can't seem to get to print
Oh, it's like a PNP thing.
I don't know what it is.
So why did you buy a new router?
I wanted to I will here's the reason because I'm going to be
reviewing all these different little boxes. Routers, no little
boxes the little boxes that little boxes they're selling the
Roku box the Oh live box or the WD box there's a bunch of them
you'd be surprised no no no
this in fact would you were you also going to take a look at
some of the Homebrew like the Raspberry Pi Media Center. Maybe
that's I'll build one just for you to review.
Okay, if you build it out, I'll put it in the pile. Yeah. So I
have all these boxes I've got lining up and I don't have
enough power on the old router to hit down there although I do
have some repeaters which I picked up. So I can I can do
Senate repeated on a device. What's the point when I get one
of these new 802 11 A C's? What did I have not heard of the AC
C's are the big thing The AC is where I've been almost a year
they've been out but the ACS will will deliver 1.2 gigabits
per show so well hold on a second, then the only way that
can happen are these on than the must be these must be on really
high frequencies like five gigahertz frequency.
Yeah, there's a five gigahertz thing that they're cheating a
little bit because essentially 802 11 And could deliver up to
400 megabits per second. Yeah, yeah. They're using three
channels is what they're doing. There's no doubt about it. So
it's this is cheating, right? Because there's 10 channels or
more available, I forgot how many but whatever the case is,
they're gonna use they're gonna but but when you really set it
up for normal use, it makes no
sense because you're not your your Wi Fi card in your laptop
doesn't
work but this thing still delivers twice the speed of the
other router on at all levels on the 802 11 and or the regular
two point whatever it is gigahertz 2.3 Whatever it is,
it'll deliver like it's delivering like almost 300 And
then on a five
now do you measure this? What are you what's your measurement
system?
You can tell what because on Windows eight that downloaded
really fast on Windows Yeah, on Windows eight it actually tells
you the unlike the other you know the other ones when you
made a connection 54 megabits per second it would always say
it down well if IT department your visitors and they've been
you're getting nothing right but Windows eight it gives you real
time what you're getting and it's it's truthful who'd up your
laptop and roam around the house and see what the what the
relative speed is in the room or whatever I did this a little
nerdy but it's when you think I'm only getting 10 here I
actually curse you because I got a horrible horrible in fact Miss
Mickey was just putting cucumber slices on my head. I got a
horrible sunburn because of you yesterday
I had nothing to do yes you did.
Yes you did. Because we had biked to the farmers market that
was mistake number one
Yeah, that would be that was that was the mistake
circumstances Yeah,
well you know it's it South by so we can park so then we'll
just hop on our bike okay get into shoes and go in there was
great but then coming back you know you're biking up south
Congress is like that's a little more Hill than then I remember
in the car. And so we come back I'm so tired. I'm gonna listen
to the Vortech Horowitz unplugged on my got my
headphones you know the ones that are night gave us. The
giant ones. Yeah, no agenda headphones. And I'm listening
and of course you know the thing to you and your dulcet tones. Of
course, I'm out within three minutes. Like this guy born in
the backyard in the hammock. Oh my god, and I wake up and he's
like, Oh, wow, I was just you completely burned.
You're burned by Texas sun.
And to show only because I remember waking up at the end
the show was not not even an hour.
That course now all the suggestions that were in the
show are
in my head, brain. I need to short Netflix. Yes. No long
Netflix. I'm sorry.
We have both on that. Anyway. Anyway, so that was cool. I'm
sorry. Well, I will take credit for that. Yeah. Hey,
this morning, and I didn't, because I only got the email
Thursday after the show on makes me an email and told me that
Uncle Don was going to be on that anti constitutionalist
trader show. Fareed Zakaria
Oh, really when he was on this morning, oh, did you get a tape
of it? Well, of course I did. You have some clips? Yes, of
course. I've got clips. And we're going to start the show
with that.
No, why would I do that? I mean, that would lean on. That sounds
good. So it but what's interesting? Well, I'll tell you
that in a moment, first of all, it's all coming together. It
makes so much sense to me now. So we have let me see if I have
the the we have to be incredibly frightened. I guess we get like,
oh, the North Korea's going to shoot missiles onto the West
Coast. And a CNN. I mean, it's just
getting to me this is this horse crap about North Korea is going
to attack us any minute. Yeah. I mean, this is bullshit. But
besides being complete manure, it's like well, who are we
kidding? I do have a clip if you need to have the the background
that North Korean coming at you clip.
Yeah, let's we'll do the background. And then and then
I'll roll us slowly into what's really going on here.
The US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel sure has announced plans
to station 14 missile interceptors in Alaska to combat
North Korea's threats of a nuclear strike. Hagel also
revealed plans to deploy a radar tracking system in Japan. The
decision isn't about fees for the Obama administration who
decided to stop the expansion of the missile defense shield back
in 2010.
The United States has missile defense systems in place to
protect us from limited ICBM attacks. But North Korea in
particular, has recently made advances in its capabilities,
and is engaged in a series of irresponsible and reckless
provocations. Specifically, North Korea announced last month
that it conducted its third nuclear test. And last April
displayed what appears to be a road mobile ICBM.
So what was interesting about that, of course, Hagos are brand
new minister of defense. Clearly he has no clue what he's talking
about. The guy's just reading there. And well, I mean, we've
already saw this in the Senate confirmation hearings. He
doesn't know what he's talking about. But now that the puppets
in and he'll basically get up there and read and do it every
has to say he's reading these four points. Now the first three
points, I have a clip, but this one already this one kind of set
it up. Is North Korea. Whew, bad. So we've got to get ready
for them. We're going to put some shields stuff in place in
Alaska. We're going to put stuff in place in Japan. And we're
going to be looking at new new possibilities for bases and
missile defense on the north, the northwest of the United
States. But what the news did not report is the fourth thing
did you catch the fourth thing that he's that he lives? Sure,
I'm going to now.
And fourth, we are restructuring the SM three to be program.
Now this is where the press corps like why whatever is SMB
three, to
plan to deploy the SM to be as part of the European Phased
Adaptive Approach,
the phase adaptive approach, what could that be? The purpose
was
to add to the protection of the US homeland already provided by
our current GBS I guess missile stretch in the Middle East. The
timeline for deploying this program had been delayed.
I'll save you the the agony of listening to all the technical
jargon that he is spouting and this is which which of course is
when you have to pay attention. It's Fourth on the list. It's a
whole bunch of pages
listen to this 2022 due to cuts and congressional funding.
Listen to this. Meanwhile, the threat matures, a shifting
resources from this lagging program to fund the additional
GBI as well as advanced kill vehicle technology will improve
the performance of the GBI. Oh, of course, other versions of the
SM three
my SM three GBI performances. Fantastic. So
of course an SM to be how do you get to an SM three? I
have no, this is the whole point. What this is basically,
remember, we were going to put this whole array of missiles
pointing towards Russia
missiles. This part of the Iron Dome. Yes. towards Russia. Yeah,
they they're great because it stopped any good. Yeah. And
Russia is
like right on about time you got out of our face. So this is not
about North Korea. This is a gesture towards Russia. And as
you'll recall, when President Obama had the open mic
experience with Medvedev, he said, Look, I'll have more
flexibility after I'm elected president, I can't do anything
right now. And it is my belief that this is part of whatever
the plan is, which we haven't quite figured out yet. Is this
is this is this is part of the flexibility is okay.
It involves oil. Do you think?
Really, you think so?
And probably Syria today.
So a CNN is off the deep end, and I really want to you, not
you, not you but I want people who have heard this show, go
into the show notes go into the North Korea actually go into the
video section. And go look at CNN has this new way of
presenting things. And it is it is 3d around the presenter. So
this the so they've they've proved they've produced this
piece, it's a beautiful piece, and it's showing you I'm gonna
play a bit of the audio. It's showing you how, you know, the
danger of North Korea. And the guy is literally standing in the
middle of a globe. And then in 3d, like really three
dimensional in front of him. You've got like, you know, the
the trajectories, you've got the missiles flying like in the
space, it's really well done. I've not seen this. Seen it at
all. This is this must be the new Jeff Zucker stuff and it's
and then also he's talking about the Korean missile. And the
thing is just he's always holding on to it. It just
appears It's really fantastic. And they just it's like whoa, we
so you won't be able to see it. Obviously this being rowdier.
But you'll hear his intonation how obvious it is that he's
using these visual visual aids to teach you morons, literally
morons, what is going on, or at least what they want you to
think is going on. The Pentagon is acknowledging that North
Korea is becoming more of a global threat. And he's standing
on the globe now, right globe, and there's actually a world and
a little world has appeared in front of him. A little globe
literally floating right in front of him. It's phenomenal.
But let's start with the premise. Here's a country that
always been hearing about as they're starving to death, a
bunch of idiots, and they're like you complete Boneheads. And
now they're a global threat because by the way, their third
nuke is still only about half the power of the one that was
hit dropped on Hiroshima. I mean, it's weapons that have
more.
Russia has Russia has meteorites that are stronger than that.
What are you talking about? It's nothing. All right. So let's,
let's go on with our lesson. Are you ready? Are you shutting up
slave? Are you listening?
I'm going to shut up and listen because of
the speed at which it is developing its missile program
and its nuclear weapon program. So how does the military want to
respond to the spa on the frontline, frontline Pacific
Ocean where the fear is that North Korea on its best day
might be able to launch a missile that would go all the
way out to hit some
parts of the United States? On its best day?
And now you so Wait, wait, you're interrupting and you tell
me to stop? Let me start stop there. What is there during this
report? Just before it's over, I want to ask you a simple
question. Do they explain why North Korea would want to do
this because they're evil? And it's suicidal to even think
about something like this? Well, they explain that.
No, you don't need to have backgrounds slave, you don't
understand worldly events. Just watch the pretty pictures. It's
3d do about
that. First of all, they want more radar support. They want a
new base in Japan here to be tracking early on what's
happening. They want to beef up missiles in Alaska and
California. Yes. And of course, they want steady monitoring from
ships at sea ahead, and from satellites all watching to see
if Korea
is going to need it. Satellites are literally flying through
through me. I gotta give you a link for this. It's just wanna
you look, I'll send it to you after the show. It's
unbelievable the technology they put into this. So anyway, I'm
not going to play the whole thing because it's just more
it's just so patronizing. And of course there is absolutely no
explanation as to why they're so evil. Now, Uncle Don, and
actually Fareed Zakaria, the trader and I'll just call him
that just he's a traitor. I don't like him at all. He's he
keeps saying we should get rid of the Constitution and
ya know, he is a horrible person that anyone should read. And and
you hear Are people praising him for some reason he is just he's
not and he's, he's annoying with any Islamist where Skull
and and I know my own mag agrees with me. You know I think you
always got to wonder. I think Uncle Don really doesn't mean
he's if anything he's working for the Koreans he was just in
Korea. I can't get a visit while he was in South Korea, but I
didn't know but he apparently also spoke to some North
Koreans. And he wrote a little family letter and he's like,
it's actually on Meg wrote this.
It's Emily letter. They still do that. Oh, yeah.
Oh, no, Mickey doesn't. I love him with pictures. And it's not
a letter, it's an email.
Most people get switched to blogs. No, no, no,
no, it's still a private, it's a private email. It's really cute.
And but she said that, you know, the Koreans value their their
elderly so much, and Don is now 84. And so when he comes to
Korea, and it's, they have so much respect and rollout all
kinds of hospitality. For him. It's, it's really quite
astounding when you kind of read through how people treat their
elders versus here where, you know, get out of the way Oh, get
off the road. I'm gonna kill you to shoot you. So here's the
intro to Uncle Don, which I thought was appropriate for us
to get a little background or again on where uncle Don comes
from. And right off the bat, he pretty much explains exactly
what's going on. And I just gotta love him for it.
Donald Greg is a former ambassador to South Korea. In
fact, he just returned from a visit there. He was also
national security adviser in the 1980s. To then Vice President
George HW Bush.
First question,
what do you think they were trying to do, Ambassador? I
mean, this seems so bizarre. We you wrote a piece about engaging
with them. I feel as though it'd be nice to get them less
isolated. But then they go and test a nuclear bomb, abrogate
the armistice treaty threatened a preemptive nuclear strike and
promised to rain bullets on South Korea. Why are they doing
this?
I met with North Koreans very recently and talked to them
about it. And they said what has happened is that they have given
up on their diplomats and the military is now in control. And
what they want is talk about moving from the now disbanded
armistice agreement to the creation of a peace treaty. And
that's what they want to talk about. And anyone who was
willing to talk about that they will listen to anyone who wants
to talk about what they call the old way which was give up your
nuclear weapons and then we'll talk is going to get nowhere
and that's it. It's literally that simple.
Makes nothing but sense. Did you hear that guy own and uh, you
know, whether it's the military or not, they are sick of this
armistice. Yeah. And around forever. We can't just say okay,
well, let's have a peace agreement and treaty so we can
stop, you know, creating this mess at the border, which is
like you know, and what's weird to Seoul Korea is right near the
border. So be like, you know, if there was if the North Koreans
decided to overrun South Korea, everyone in Seoul, Korea to be
screwed, but it's like, yeah, that makes nothing but But
firstly, they must have been reported on then that you know,
that Greg was actually talking some sense, it seems to me that
you know, you had a lot of reports on what Dennis Rodman
Well the funny thing is, I'm glad you bring that up. Dennis
Rodman and I have had probably the only interview from him, is
saying the exact same thing as Uncle Don. Except Don doesn't
have the tattoos and the piercings.
I obviously haven't told him no, and I feel he does want to do to
get out he wasn't able to get out of the shadow.
He wants to do one thing. And I will bring him over here. He
wasn't one thing he wants to not fight. He asked me to Obama,
please call me That's all he asked.
I believe that I think it's totally true. It's just like,
look, we just we want to keep our nuclear weapons everyone
else has him You got him. We want to keep him well and we
want to have peace we'll have a peace treaty but you know, don't
try to disarm us.
There's a if you saw that anyone got to see the end it's
available on one of these little boxes like a Roku. I think it's
on Netflix maybe but the first Vice magazine visit to North
Korea went in through the Canadian side it's it's apparent
and and there's discussions about this. It's apparent that
the North Koreans I know this is gonna sound weird, but I
convinced of it I'll put it in the book wants to become a
tourist attraction. It wants to become a tourist destination
because it's so it's, you know, it would be very quaint to go to
North Korea. This place hasn't changed since the 30s. And you
could go there and they and it's all set up already because the
vise guys kept going from one place to another thing. Why is
there this huge restaurant? At the foot of this famous
mountain? Yeah, there's nobody in here but me.
Yeah, I'm in agreement on that. And also King John. Kim, John
own also likes amusement parks so much. Bright. Yeah, that's
true. Yeah. Just you just turn it into one big Disneyland. I
agree with you, John. Well, let me ask you this, just
historically speaking, what is the deal? I don't, I don't think
that the North Koreans hate the South Koreans. I mean, that's
just political. But they're all Koreans. Yeah. I mean, it's
like, we don't hate the Canadians. The Canadians don't
hate us. I don't know about that. Well, we got a border. And
we all get along, you know, we consider that to be an amusement
park up there. You know, we go skiing and you know, smoke dope
and all kinds of cool stuff and cannabis in Whistler. That's
right. That's right. Go up to what's the, what's the, what's
the glacier, there's a called Whistler, the glacier
whistlers. The big mountain were ski. Anyway. And there's two
other places in Canada that people like to visit. So Don,
pond, I believe in Alberta.
All right, enough, back to North back to my uncle back to my
uncle. So he tells a pretty cool story. You know, Don always has
these great stories, which some of I've related on the show, and
he rolled one out, which I'm going to ask him, we're gonna
see him for his 60th wedding anniversary in July, he rolled
one out on on Zaccaria, about trying to the Koreans had been
trying to get this going for a long time. All they want is they
let us keep our stuff on nuclear weapons, but we want peace. And
they have been, and they even tried it through him with a
personal letter. They don't want to give up their nuclear
weapons. They want to be able to know this is some douchebag, who
they brought on to be controversial, have their cake
and eat it too.
And US policy for the past quarter century has been these
things are all on the table, if you are willing to give up your
nuclear weapons. And so this is the problem. This is the
dilemma. Right? How do you overcome that? By talking to
them? I mean, I'm a man who had carried a written offer to start
talks with North Korea to the White House in 2002. November,
it had come directly from Kim Jong Il through consults you to
me. I got there, Steve Hadley took a look at it said no, we
won't talk to them talking to them would be rewarding bad
behavior. I was in and out of the White House in 20 minutes
without a single question having been asked. So our unwillingness
to talk to them, despite the aberrations and so forth, I
think is put us where we are. There you go.
Makes total sense. Of course, this is this is also kind of,
you know, you sticking with with the with the agency, and you
know, you wouldn't disparage our current president. Which I
always find, really. But that's it. I think, truly, that's all
they want. And then we can just wrap it up with this. He circles
around at the end of this interview and says kind of
pretty much the same thing. But I think it's worth just
listening to it.
I think there is not going to be a collapse in North Korea. The
Chinese will not allow that to happen. That's what they fear
most. Oh,
nice. Yeah. Because they don't need the immigrants.
Yeah, they don't want that.
And I think we have a young man who's going to be around for
several decades, who was looking for some external support for
what he's trying to do. The only free people who have given them
that so far are the Russians, who cancelled his $7 billion
debt that North Korea owe them, which was a very astute move. So
I hope if we can get through this period of training,
training that after President Obama, and
yet he slipped that in, it's what he means by training is
that President Obama is going to be talking to the president of
South Korea. That's the training
President POC when they get to know each other, I hope after
we've reached out to the Chinese, that there can be a
sensible multilateral
approach. And the Chinese apparently, that's the training
forward,
addressing some of the central concerns that the North Koreans
are trying to make clear to us, and that is that they want a
peace treaty.
There it is. That's it. And I, I'm I'm gonna believe uncle Don,
I don't think he has any dog in the hunt anymore. Well, no,
that's crazy to think, actually.
Well, he's a little older. There's no reason that this
would be. I mean, what would be the point of creating this
bullcrap story?
No, he No, he has. No, he's
the only thing that makes sense is that what he said is
absolutely true. Yeah, his logic is, I mean, do I mean, then
we're moving missiles around because we think the North
Koreans are just going to haphazardly extend a missile and
blow up Seattle. Yeah, it's just a lesson on who would believe
such a thing as a moron and CNN? You wonder Yeah, they got all
this 3d stuff trying to get people to watch the show. But I
think that I think the dumbest member of the of the public has
to look at this and it makes no sense I think I'll play the dumb
guy. Don't make any sense. No, that's not crap out of that. I
mean, there's no no,
no, John, I think you've got it wrong. This is how it goes. If
you're all you got the voice right, by the way, but it's
like, oh, yeah, it will blow the crap out of your nose. That
that's how it goes. It's not like why now it's just like, Oh,
you don't attack a homeland? That the hunt that I honestly
don't believe that? No, but the don't think at the lowest level.
Is this dumb?
Oh, I'm sorry. I am sorry. You're incorrect. Just
to off the wall. Now this is the stupidest thing I did get to get
anybody to believe that the North Koreans are going to just
send a missile over and for no good reason or the same thing
with that. Well, here I have I just sent you another clip on
another email. This was from a couple of weeks ago. This is
Kelly Ayotte in the can you cue that up? Yeah, I'm
working on it right now that Lea got
that woman who hangs out with a cane all the time. A little
puppy dog. The tall the tall goofy one. She's She's the
brunette that looks kind of like she's goofy. Pretty when she was
younger. She still kind of you know, she's no fee. But she's
got those. She's like she's she's either you. She's either a
smoker. Yeah. That does little vertical lines on her upper lip
and she's not smoker, then I think you can figure it out. The
case. She's McCain stooge for presidents is her where McCain
can't be it. He's not in every committee. Obviously. This is
actually her channeling McCain. In a hearing you Senator reach
Senator
Ray. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I want to thank both of our
witnesses for your leadership and for your service to our
country. I wanted to follow up, but general Keillor on the the
issue of the intercontinental ballistic missile threat to the
country that Senator Inhofe and Senator Reid asked you about.
And you use the term in terms of I think you said not not optimum
in terms of some of the challenges we may face there.
Just so it's clear to people. If now, we an ICBM, we're headed to
the West Coast, we would get a shoot look shoot at it correct,
because of our missile defense system, but we don't have an
East Coast missile defense system. So if Iran develops
ballistic missile capability, we don't have the same capacity. Do
we on the east coast of the country? It while I hate to say
it, the answer is it depends.
It depends on what a country like Iran would do where they
would launch from what the Azmuth SAR it says.
The intent is that as time passes and additional features
are added to the ballistic missile defenses. Oh, I
can't hear this. This is this is actually it's it's phenomenally
good. This is just as dumb as the cyber war talk they do in in
Congress. That depends on the Azmuth Oh, yeah. Let me take
this broomstick. Put this broomstick in the
feet above the ground. It's not right.
Our capability to
defend improves. But just so we're clear as of today, am I
not correct in saying that's a very poor English by the way
that West Coast North Korea we get shoot look, shoot,
shoot, look, shoot, write that down. John. That is such a great
show title.
We don't get the same capacity on the East Coast if Iran. You
know, some Some analysts believe that they could develop this
ICBM capability as soon as 2015 that may or may not be correct.
But at this point, our missile defense is the capacity is
different on the east coast of the country versus the West
Coast. Isn't that true?
Is that true? Am I you're leading the witness
tentatively say yes. And provide you a better answer for the
record?
I appreciate it because the National Research Council
actually this year recommended an additional ballistic missile
site on the East Coast isn't that right?
Yeah. Leading the way this they are one of the organizations
that has looked at this Yes, that's a very good clip. So I
just want to say uncle Don does have a dog in the hunt. It's
South Korea he he's I think he really truly loves all Koreans.
But you know, officially he was in South Korea he was ambassador
unofficially i I'm pretty sure he was in North Korea a lot he's
got a dog in the hunt. That's the only reason he's made
contact that doesn't mean he come up with a line of crap no
that's what I'm that's why he's saying no, that's what I'm
saying. I just he of course he has a dog in the hunt. But he's
telling the truth. He is really speaking on a
topic that Dennis Rodman agrees with it's not something to be
wrong
but Dennis Rodman comes out and the you know, and and says the
truth and everyone ridicules him. Uncle Don comes out
everyone ignores him.
Right? Is that what should have been front page news on the New
York Times?
Yes, of course. Because
York Times report for you later today. Oh, good, good. Good.
Oh, whoa. Let us thank our producers so we can continue
with some this is a good conversation, because this
really shows you, unfortunately, how dumb the world populace is
because people will believe this. The world over. This is
just starting this campaign.
Yeah, no, I agree. It's, it's distressing.
Except for the people who listen and produce this program, who
are clearly awake and are not foiled by this idiocy, and the
cool 3d graphics and the forthcoming movie,
but the Joker, right, there's definitely going to be a movie.
But the joke is, of course, is that nobody except you
apparently has to have seen these great, these great
graphics, because nobody, it's just nobody buys into CNN and
his bull crap, which, of course, is another reason nobody picked
up on Don. Don, Don Greg, because he was on that Zaccaria
show. And that guy's good. Who wants to watch him?
Well, we know that no, we know the numbers are low. We know
that. But the CNN piece was produced and they will run that
over and over again. I learned from my MTV days, which really
had no at any given time, we had less than a one rating. I mean,
a point a point one rating and primetime was point five. So
you're really talking at any given moment, and MTV is history
when they're playing music videos. 70,000 people were
watching but repetition is what does it so that and I think Jeff
Zucker knows that and they brought in Jake Tapper now and
they're really trying to do something he will fail because
it's just it's just lame. The person they should have on all
the time as Candy Crowley, you know, I'm all for Rubenesque
women.
And she's actually very great. She's not bad. No, she's not
bad at all. But they're gonna repeat this thing and you will
see this thing with the graphics and you'll just go holy crap. I
have never seen that on television.
Okay, well anyway, let's thank some of the producers who helped
us with show 49796
That still the spreadsheet is all
fine they he's off always one number it's where it's four nine
or six. Anyway four nine or six nonnamous from wha he Owwa
Hawaii
I think I think this anonymous came in on Thursday as well
maybe I don't know how it could have because I didn't download
it I just remember why he our yeah I remember why he had to
but I don't remember being at the top of the list Whatever
Simon beds possible so I there's a couple in here that looks like
repeats to me Simon Ben in Ipswich Suffolk for nine for
priests appreciate some getting laid karma plus a birthday call
out we got that setup maybe if you if you go pay only we're
still not serious let me give
him some getting laid karma that's really impressed
important stuff. You've got karma by the way this is so this
is what's weird. It's 494 So is it possible that this is a
donation for show for nine or four and this got stuck in the
system somehow?
Well like you said I think before we started the show
there's something wrong with PayPal.
Oh my god I mean so so our numbers are way off
I don't think they're that far off
well sir Get mostly he told me that and he works at a company
that that does some processing and Pay Pal is somewhere in the
mix. And he said that people were it was a lot of problems
that since Friday for every 10 payment attempts only one would
work so there's something going on oh man we should have
switched a Bitcoin when we had the chance.
We fools Yeah, yeah.
All right. So anonymous and Simon Bennett will be our and of
course the 500 from Anonymous is a special birthday donation
virtual branch and 500 show
and we have a bunch more of this executive producers Wade Wade
Deming in Anchorage, Alaska and Robert rock and I couldn't find
anything from Wade Robert rock Sir Robert actually in
Anchorage, Alaska, which I think was interesting because the way
came Oh 33333 And then we had 313 13 but there's two Anchorage
Alaska things right bumped right in next. Hey, you guys get
together? Yeah, hang out. Yeah. And I think Wade is a close of
being a night. Richard.
We shouldn't be starting a dating service.
When people Yeah. I've always tried to interview you know, if
you're, if you're no agenda night, you probably have very
likeable personality. You know, you're probably successful in
life. You're probably a perfect guy to go hang out with another
night. Richard Gardner in Enmore New South Wales can't bear the
thought of not having NAD to listen to twice a week Thursdays
talking to us a kick up the arse. I needed to finally make
another donation and I've after two years. Travel karma Yes.
Work trip to the United States. 313 13 Oh, and
we're Remember, don't opt out, you don't have to anymore you
can take no agenda travel tip number two when you're in United
States and tell the friendly TSA officer, you're unable to raise
your arms over your head as a as a matter of a medical problem,
and you will be sent through the metal detector instead. And we
now have confirmation I think we have at least 15 confirmations
on this. And if they do why you can Yeah, and exactly and if
they still if they hassle you then you can always opt out. So
I would say go with the medical and we should call it we just
given give it a name.
And by the way, like if dornase five in the morning itis is
somebody who has a trick they roll a piece of paper and toss
it to you thinking that you're going to lift your arm to catch
it. Let it hit you in the head and go hey, what do you
do I can just see the TSA to another one of those no agenda
eight holes here throw a piece paper at him. I think we got to
have a name. No agenda in the morning itis I have in the
morning. I just and it's very it's
good morning.
All right travel karma for Sir Robert Forster, Richard Gardner
karma. Karma for all of our producers, exec and associates
are
already in Brooklyn, New York. 313 13 is jumpstarting a second
knighthood and upping the monthly donation to 3333. You
guys should just shut down the chat. Good idea. I'll
do that right now.
Paul Roberson in Fairfax, Virginia 313 13. Let me just
make sure make sure there's
no note hanging in your Gmail from Virginia.
Our OB B E R 31313.
Is our special special special areas. Don't donation for our
episode 500 which falls on the 31st of March 2013. And he sent
a
note he sent a note please do not read this on the show. Okay,
good. Okay, so that's that note. He does, by the way, suggested
the shows too long.
Well, we've been we've been with the donation segment shortening,
we're now at about two and a half hours. So I think we're
doing much better. Almost shut it down and almost and honestly,
I feel good at the end of the show instead of worn out and
ragged and tired.
Yeah, well, he suggests two hours, but I think two and a
half is fine, because that's five and that really accounts
for a lot of commuters. Timothy Tillman cert, did we get you
know, Timothy Tillman? Sir Tim, actually, in Mechanicsville,
Virginia 300 and he says he gives a crap and shoot no show
is too long. More is better. I need to show Adam keep calm and
carry on. So we have a 313 13 is shortening the 300 This is it.
Okay, so so far with 13 points ahead on shortening. Oh, that's
a good way to tally it. Wait a minute. Anyway,
that is the are executive producers for show 496 Yes, in
the morning to all of them in the morning to you John C.
Dvorak.
No, in the morning to you, Adam curry in the morning all ships
at sea boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water.
And all the days and nights out?
Yes. And also to our artists superly own Thank you very much
for the artwork for Episode Four, nine or five? No agenda
art. generator.com is where you can see all of the art and it
was it was hard. On Thursday, there wasn't a lot of lot of I
remember us having it. It was challenging finding what we
wanted. For
about one actually, I have a theme. It's one of when I don't
have a lot of there's not a lot of news, I find themes. I get a
good one.
Oh, okay. Well, what do you want to share that or what's Well,
we've
got to finish this segment.
And, and I very much want to thank our executive producers.
This is just like Hollywood people, and Associate Executive
producers for supporting the program of course. So that's why
you're listed in the opening credits of the show after the
tease which we did. And on like Hollywood, we will actually
vouch for you if someone questions that you can put it on
your IMDB you could become a member of the Producers Guild of
America even if you wish, but really it's all about and
managed
to do that yet. Yes, sir. Jean? Oh,
of course. Yeah. He went to the whole thing. You have to have a
certain number of credits. I think it's for three or four and
that's it. That's all you need published credit so you
don't you have to pay? Oh, yeah. Oh, you got to pay you get
health insurance?
That's a good question. I think you can get it you still have to
pay for the health insurance but it's not free. It's put that way
by some group deal. Yeah, that's just like sag sag is not free.
You have to pay for it. I am in Austin, we have ham, which is
the for helping Asti musicians. If you can prove that you're a
working musician. You get free health care. Really? Yeah. Yeah,
that's pretty awesome. Anyway, Hey,
if you would like us to do a tambourine count,
if you if you get paid for it, and if you live in Austin, and
if you're not a douchebag Please continue to support the program
so that we can continue bringing you the best podcast in the
universe. And unlike the musicians in Austin, our
healthcare ain't phrase.org/n A and we would like you to always
continue to go out and propagate our formula is very simple.
Our formula is this, we go out, we hit people in the mouth
as citizens and of course, later in the broadcast, we will be
thanking our donors over $50 for their support, the program is
still getting lots of people who have now who are saying, hey,
crap, I've been a Boehner I'm gonna get on $5 a month. That's
all I can afford. Thank you. That's all we're really asking
for. If everyone did $5 a month, boy, we'd have we'd have a
different conversation. But that is pie in the sky. So we awoke
this morning to some interesting news about euro land, John.
Yeah, well run for the hills, get your money out of the bank,
because the banks are now actually stealing your money.
perhaps not surprising that the EU's bailout plan for Cyprus
announced yesterday has not gone down well, on the small
Mediterranean island, it demands that everybody who has savings
in a Cypriot bank pays a one off tax of up to 10% of those
savings. Now an emergency session in the parliament has
been postponed three political parties already vowing to oppose
the plan.
So this is if you've heard about this, what happened? Yes, this
is this is so let me just get this straight. And you tell me
if I'm crazy. So they took money, Cyprus, which is part of
the EU. And of course, there's billions and billions of Russian
money in the bank accounts there. That's a little sideline
that should not go unnoticed as part of this. So they take I
think, 15 billion in EU IMF bailouts, which, of course, is
for the banks, because that's what all this money is all going
back from the banks, I think we've pretty much established
that. If not, let me just remind you citizens of the European
Union, that this bailout money goes to your banks. So now in
order to pay back the money that was borrowed for the banks, who
pretty much squandered that money and just paid it to
wherever the proof is gone. Now, they are going to take your
money that's in the bank, and use that to pay back the elitist
IMF. And so under 100,000 euros, it's 6.9%. And if you have over
100,000 euros, it's 9.9% of your money, and they just take it,
they just remove it from your account. I mean, it and if you
think that this is only going to happen to some idiots on islands
south of Greece, it's a test. It's it's it's the I'd say it's
beyond the beta test. Actually, this is this is, you know,
they're sending out invites.
This is a reverse interest rate concept. Is that what they're
calling it? And he says, No, that's what you did, it's gonna
be called, oh, right, you have to get we have our interest
rates, the Fed has kept them down to nothing zero, so you can
get money really cheap. And there's been talking about a
reverse interest rate where you actually have to pay for
somebody to hold your money. Well, the
European, the Bank of England, I think was talking about doing
that about doing a negative interest rate.
And in fact, if you think about service fees and charges that
banks have been putting on people for holding their money,
that's always been kind of like a weird reverse tax, because why
am I given the bank 1000s of dollars, and then they're
charging me for the privilege of having a view of taking that
money and using it as their collateral?
Don't you understand the system yet?
So it's a scam. So Well, yeah.
But I I'm, I'm kind of astounded at this to me. This is it. It's
not just a beta test for the EU. I think it's a beta test for the
world. I think it's a beta test for banks in America. Heavy if
we if we can do this, and people do not go and shoot their
politicians. I mean, you someone's got to chop the head
off. Otherwise, Amy, what do you think and
then? Well, I'm thinking that this may actually I think, I
think there's an unintended consequence of this sort of
thing if they can get away with it. So say they get away with
it. Now you have the the argument for a wealth tax.
Because this essentially is a wealth tax, but it's well used
as a as a fee or whatever or something because only savings,
but if you're gonna go that far, why don't we just drop the
income did a lot of people are arguing this anyway. And I'm one
of them because they do this in Switzerland to great effect. And
this also shuts up Warren Buffett and Bill Gates, oh, we
need to pay more taxes than our income. That was shut up faster
than you can imagine and squeal like pigs at the trough being
denied their food. If you institute a wealth tax, and I
have done the calculation on the classic kinds of wealth taxes,
which can be choosy five, 10%, maybe at the most. If you start
to get I forget what the classic is, maybe three is not a lot,
what countries are doing this, where's this is the country that
has made it work. And there's no poverty in Switzerland? So let's
start with that premise. We've of course, there's a lot of
reasons for that. But anyways, it's been tried in other
countries, but the elites have been have railed against it and
unknown Oh, did you because it's unequal to to have taxes on
income, because it prevents people from getting into the
wealthy classes, because you're just being taxed before you even
accumulate money. But if you had a wealth tax, which turns out to
to be I wish I had the number in front, because I talked about
this before, but it's not a lot. But it turns out to be less, I'd
be paying, for example, myself, and I'm middle income, I would
be paying less total as a wealth tax. I'd be with the houses I
have, I've still be paying less than I would with an income tax.
But it would be more than made up for by guys like Bill Gates
and Warren Buffett, right? Who would be paying a lot, which is
what they should be paying because it's their fair share.
Well, in the
Netherlands, they have a wealth tax. They've had it, man, I
think for as long as, as I've known, I'm just looking up the
number. I think it is. It Well, it's progressive. But it can be
up to 4%. It can be 30% of your top 4% is very complicated. It's
called from mo Hans bolusing. But this of course, is why
people you know, shuttle money out of the country, other
places, and I'm amazed Where's Max Keiser hyping Bitcoin This
is the perfect story for him.
Yeah, this is right. You're right, right. Yeah, if the guy
would just try to you know, don't sound like an insane
person. I think he'd probably get on more stuff. And
I just mentioned Bitcoin and it went from 4801 to 47. Six. We
just lost 70 cents Bitcoin in like a second
that you dumped yours already?
No, I know. I told you. I dumped some. So I can you know, so I
can pay your share of the Bitcoin we received. And I'm
keeping the rest. I'm going to be a Bitcoin millionaire. And we
talking about all you need is one coin. But I want to be
richer than you. I want to have 100 million. Max Keiser promised
me where I find it highly disturbing.
Well, I'm just telling you, this is what the unintended
consequence could well be. So these guys would think they're
getting away with something here by stealing people's savings.
Well, and that's asking for trouble. And they'd have to put
put a low cap on it because this is, you know, the dumb slave who
has 100 euros in his bank account. Basically, someone just
went in there and took seven. Just yeah, thank you very much.
No, that's not okay. So you'd have to have a cap a low end
cap.
Oh, this also tells you not to put money in a bank.
I'm saying gold. Yeah, don't put money in the bank. Exactly.
Exactly. Under the bed.
Gold I'm telling you my friend gold.
Yeah, gold.
So do you remember the you ready to move on? Because I'm, I'm
Yeah.
And I can't find the number I'm looking for. So I'll I'll get
back to it. We'll talk about the wealth tax again in the future.
I do have some others. Well, we'll talk about your will
circle round back to Euro land. But meanwhile in Chicago. This
report very interesting. It's interesting for a number of
reasons. So South by Southwest in Austin. We have not over yet.
No. And it goes on for months. They go on for months. I think
it ends maybe this Sunday, but then when no one's really sure
that would be today. No, no, no, in a week.
Oh my god, I
think it's three weeks total.
This is a big inconvenience for people that work in that town.
Not at all.
Not at all. We're very happy. This is you know what happens is
like of course the service industry when it comes to bars
and restaurants. And you know in the city and just everyone's
making money this is we're all happy we love it. We actually we
know that when people come for South by will get rain that's
great too, because we need the rain. And it also keeps those
slaves in line. This is perfect. Everyone really really loves
this. The local musicians get to get to perform everyone's making
Money. The other side of the service industry, like the
hairdresser, you know, these people they leave is gone, they
rent out their house, you know, for four or $500 a night for a
room, I'm not kidding. They'll rent them out. And they'll
they'll go either to friends in Houston or Dallas or out of
state, whatever. So you can't actually get anything else done
unless you want to drink in Rio de
Janeiro during Carnival, all the locals leave
except for us. But I kind of like it because we're so close
people can walk from South Congress to our house. So we've
learned now that we have to do two things. One
is not walking up to your house and ageing the place? What's the
deal now
only friends, friends who are from out of town. But you know,
I think we should join up with the South by Southwest
organization and get a piece of the action like you know, you
have to buy a badge to come to our house. I think that's that's
where if you
have to have a badge and theory comps and somebody else going to
add if you haven't, you're going are you guys go away? We
got a badge. Now we're gonna do we're gonna do a concert series
next year. Totally. We're a backyard concert series. So
anyway, so so people are coming by and bringing beautiful house
gifts. And I got Yeah, let's see. It's a big plus. Last night
we had Mike and Jane over producers of the show. Executive
producers, and they live in Austin. Mike's a musician he
teaches plays guitar and yeah, he brought his guitar we're
sitting I mean, how cool is that? Right? We're sitting
outside. We're in Austin. He's playing I'm, I'm playing along
on the slide whistle Much to the chagrin of everyone
somebody's been recording, fantastic event and the kazoo.
And, in Jane, she actually very cute she bought over a hand made
pot, she makes pottery in her spare time with margarine
growing in it. And that of course is based upon your
recommendation on the show. So that was nice. And but Charlie
came over Charlie Thompson came over the other day and and he
brought over two gifts. One was a Texas license plate which he
had cut with a plasma Lance into the the state map of Texas.
That's the kind of thing you want here on your Austin home.
And the other one was mint inbox with instruction manual but went
way back of mint inbox mint as in mint condition, or mint in
the original box. From 1961 a Victorian Instrument Company
Geiger counter. Oh, good. And and just just to prove it here,
I'll just, you know, just there's a little test thing on
it. So you can here we go. There's the you hear it?
Yeah, it's a Geiger counter. Yeah, that's the noise they
make. Yeah.
In other words is like 9000 volts or going through that
detector?
Yeah, but it's no lamps. No.
But so and put my tongue on it. So that was kind of apropos.
Because of course, I think of putting your tongue on it. And
we go on as part of
the Tourette's so of course, I'm going around the look at every
piece of Chinese junk that we bought at Bed Bath and Beyond,
you know, checking for if there's any guy for
radiation, you should take it to the sushi bar. Yeah,
I'm gonna take it to sushi. Totally do it. Hold on a second.
I know the owner of Gucci today to check your fish.
There's a lot of fish coming in from Japan. Yeah, but it's not
radioactive. I don't know that I do.
And but what's interesting is something happened in Chicago,
which I believe to be a complete setup event. For number but it's
it involves Geiger counters, and not just Geiger counters, but
the elite John the elite Viper team.
As you know have Swee have categories of these Viper teams.
Now, not all Vipers the elite know
all Viper team apparently is elite. They've gone from
douchebag TSA, which is which is who runs the Viper team to the
elite. Now now they're like some, but when you hear how dumb
they are, in trying to find this nuclear threat in Chicago,
they're anything but elites. Commuters were stunned a nuclear
scare on board a Chicago metro train just last night and you
don't think that's related to North Korea? Do you? I mean, of
course this is all a part of the big be afraid of nuclear be
afraid of nuclear. And, you know, Dvorak, you're probably on
the payroll to your sushis nuclear CBS to investigate the
game so many shows us what federal agents Salish. Now
listen, I'm waiting to hear the setup. Federal agents that are
calling just last night, CBS two investigator Dave Savini shows
us what facts Federal agents found on board in this original
report. It's an original report, which means the White House
didn't give it to us, you know, report
that's very funny. That's kind of good. In other words, they
took the information and changed it around a little bit. So it's
kind of so it's, you know, it's original. Yeah, it's localized.
Crap where you read that consent from the white, I think
they should say this localized report. Be better. We've
localized this report.
Sources say these are members of the elite TSA Viper team.
Who says more sources, sources, sources, sources sources for the
5:04pm Union Pacific West Line. They're carrying handheld
nuclear detection devices,
handheld nuclear detection devices. I think that's what I
have. Yeah, exactly. A handheld nuclear detection device, also
known as a Geiger counter handy as a housewarming gift,
which picked up a reading for nuclear activity. Viper teams
were created after the 2004 bombing of a train in Madrid,
Spain, to protect us transportation, to harass
passengers here at the Ogilvy station. They detain this train
and search for the person or bag that could be posing a deadly
threat
now what do you think? What? What do you think happened? What
do you think this was all about? What do you think what I want to
hear your guess of what went on and what this nucleus
planted guy and they found a bag, and they put the crap out
of it. And then he realized that he was actually TSA himself.
Unfortunately, this didn't end with a tasing, which is how I
wanted it to end too but
the bag in question turns out to be clean, but there's still a
signal of something nuclear somewhere on the train. Do
you hear that script? Wow, that was I gotta play that again.
That was you know that by the way that doesn't give off that
much radiation. Well, because this is fake this whole thing we
know it's fake but but why would they not? Why doesn't the news
guys know why don't the news guy say like, you know, this seems
like a bogus bogus a bogus report and then start asking
some some hard questions and then say, well, they wouldn't
get back to us on the answers but
you and I'm presuming that the news is not meant that you know,
just like CNN with a with a 3d graphic. This is all meant to
program your brain, you dumb slave. You understand? I mean,
no, no, you understand this plein air at
the Ogilvy station. They detain this train and search for the
person or bag that could be posing a deadly threat. The bag
in question turns out to be clean, but there's still a
signal of something nuclear somewhere on the train. This is
a script. It's okay. They were in charge and they weren't gonna
let that chain train go out until they save Jerry Jones
mission. Listen, Mago lawyer was heading home on that train. He's
the passenger in the blue shirt,
also known as the Patsy or as the guy for the inside job.
They actually narrowed it down to the people right around you
on the train. Yes, they did. And the entire time you're sitting
there thinking wonder what they're looking for. He had no
idea that I was the center of the activity. Joan says the
special security team must have picked up on him as he entered
the station and walked up the stairs. Little did he know that
a nuclear stress test he took earlier in the day would have
set up silent alarms and sent security scurrying a nuclear
stress
test that he had. Oh, what is that? Well apparently isn't
heard of such a thing. Apparently it's very noisy. Look
it up. You do that? And I'll play the rest of the report
because this guy is obviously the shill probably 15 minutes.
15 minutes there kind of buzzing around looking at this right but
this bag right or person. The TSA team passed right by him
several times before ending up on his train car. Finally, he
got a clue when an agent question the man right next to
him and says Sir, do you have an explanation as to why I'm
getting a high isotope reading on your bag? Oh, yes,
I had isotope for breakfast. What kind of that? Yeah, that's
so if there's someone with a suitcase nuke T, of course, the
TSA goes in and says stop should listen. Why am I getting a high
isotope reading
a nuclear stress test is a non invasive imaging test that uses
a tiny amount of radioactive material known as a tracer, the
tracer which is injected into your arms. A doctor friend of
mine is one of these guys, by the way. It emits a certain kind
of energy called gamma rays that can be detected by a special
camera special camera, that information is processed then
they can reconstructed to get a better picture of your heart.
The two tracers used to document using radio nuclei.
So they see see how if your arteries are wide enough, I
guess that's kind of are we Yeah, something like that. Yeah.
Okay, that makes sense for heart.
You got a little shot of some isotopes citizen, what
are you doing with those isotopes citizen?
And it seems as if this doesn't make sense to me, because it
would seem to me that the amount of radiation is so small, and
it's within and it's obviously within the body and stuff.
Well, I think it's making total sense because what this report
is intended to communicate is infant decimal amounts, so even
if you've been in contact with them, okay,
they're using data. Okay, we'll just we'll stop wherever before
I know what you're saying. I know where I know where you're
gonna go with this, which is that this is they're creating a
bogus thing that make you think it's more sensitive than it is.
So thallium is what they're, I guess one of the things they're
using, which is, which is very radioactive. We used to have
some at the lab in on Imtiaz, thorium, I'm sorry, I'm mixing
up my radioactive
Yeah, and that's why they kicked out of the lab, I think.
But we used to have a jar of this stuff and then it was led
and so you take the lead off and then you could test the Geiger
counter. Yeah. Right. Anyway, alright, so
I will finish my thought is bullcrap that they're just
making this up to you. Wow, even that little amount they were
able to track it now of course the whole thing is crazy.
Because the guy sitting right there I mean, they can detect
them walking around the station but they can't like get a
reading off of him with the
with the gear they got on him. Yeah, no, that's the they make
mistakes. These guys aren't that bright. Oh, no. They they try to
press upon the public that there's the sensors all over the
train stations. So if somebody walks into the subway with a
bomb, yeah, a nuke. I could probably walk up to see for once
you use that I'm not figuring out why you want to have a
weapon like a nuke. So you bring a nuke into the train station.
They spotted immediately. And then they track you down like a
dog was in 15 minutes. That's right.
Not just they, the elite Viper Team Elite vipers, they come in
the elite vipers.
I guess the Chicago public has lapsed this up of
course they love it. In fact, we have to I mean, how do we pay
off a segment like this? We know that we know the script. What is
always going to be the end result. What how do we wrap it
up? How do we put a bow around it? I don't know. Yes, you do.
That's the new law.
No. No. You know how we wrap it up? We want the public saying
they can feel safe.
Oh no yet right. Now you go you're right. If you're doing a
package, now you go interview people, and you don't have any
one guy who says this sounds like a bunch of malarkey to me
you keep him out of the report and everybody else goes on and
on about oh, I feel so much safer. I wish these Viper teams
were around here more often is better to be safe than sorry it
was jaw
dropped. Once the agent said isotope Jones says he realized
he was the one they were looking for. That's when he raised his
hand to confess. I had nuclear stress test after showing his ID
and proof of the nuclear test which can leave patients
emitting radiation for some time. Jones and the other
passengers were allowed to go on their way What feeling you walk
away with one of grades security knowing there are people are on
the lookout for this type of Dave Savini CBS so
they took it even further. They took the guy who was the Patsy
who was the setup who was the shill and they made him say that
in the sit down interview. This is taking it one step further.
Yeah, well that may be because they couldn't get anyone else in
Chicago gone.
Cuz I like I am doing that man. Which reminds me of an email I
got from a producer Ethan. I just sent me this this morning,
waiting for the train from White Plains to Grand Central. Every
time I see a stupid NYPD poster with if you see something, say
something the fucking jingle plays in my head.
What does that jingle play it again?
I'm thinking since I see things all the time. I should just
start making guttural weirdo noises that that'll keep the
other slaves from sitting next to me on the subway. Wood. He
says New York blows can't wait. Can't wait to get back to ATX
there's a
couple of different ways to keep people from sitting next to one
of them, which I found to be very useful is to wear one of
those masks like a sick Yeah. And also spray yourself a little
bit with some with a little with rosewater Rosewater, Mr. Wister,
so you get sweat look you're all sweaty and especially in your
hair and so then where are that no one was sitting next to you
on that one the other one is if somebody's asked if that seats
taken set you can always say yes by Jesus that usually stops Ah
Oh, I give you an in the morning. Not heard the mask one.
Yes, my Jesus. I like this. I like just having my Geiger
counter next to me on the
worst some really thick glasses and defended cross-eyed with a
Geiger counter to be holding your red stapler ah, oh, it
hurts. It hurts. It hurts. Oh, man. Ah,
yeah, we see more of these tips. I think. I think the guttural
noises are good, but you've got to do Tourette tics as well.
Otherwise good works are great. I was always very lonely on the
bus.
Okay, I ran into a clip for a show they're playing on one of
the networks called Brothers in Arms you know about this.
Vikings or whatever
No, it's not about vikings is not about vikings. No I thought
that was about Vietnam or something.
Oh no, this is about vikings. I'm sure of it. But But listen
to this clip and tell me I don't know maybe I'm hearing things.
But it seems to me this about vikings by the way. It seems to
me that I might be miss hearing one of the assertions made in
this clip and you can tell me if you hear the same thing, and
brothers, you and I will always be
all the friends and companions of my youth feasting and
drinking in the halls of the god
listing and drinking in the holes of the gods with a horde
fisting
and drinking in the horrors of the gods in the halls. Oh gods
fists thing? By that's what it sounds like. What is the point
of that? What is what's going on with those shots? What happened?
You didn't back it up.
I didn't back it up. I'm sorry about that. I started doing I
will always be
all the friends and companions of my youth feasting and
drinking in the halls of the god.
I'm in I got to watch the show feasting and drinking in.
says we're gonna say we watched
every single episode of Dallas.
Oh, the new Dallas? Dallas. Yeah,
the new one of course. Okay, we leave tomorrow. Mickey shooting
on Tuesday.
Oh, that's right. You had to watch them all. So you can get a
feeling? Yes. You can get into it. Yeah. What do you think? It
isn't gonna fit right in? You know what the characters issue
in the script?
I'm not allowed to talk. Oh, plea. Well, can
she does she did do the role, right? Oh, yeah. She a murderer.
Lets me ask you that. That murder to me. She might
be. Oh, yeah, she definitely is. There's a very deep character if
they continue the character in season three.
So I was I tried to get some clips from CPAC. I got one. I
got one too. And I think I got the best clip. Even though it's
it's not that funny clip like the fisting one. But
how come? No one says that at CPAC. And please explain what
CPAC is.
CPAC is a Conservative Political Action Committee. They have a
huge meeting every year where they insult various Republicans
and other conservatives who they don't invite to speak and every
douchebag in the world comes up there and rails about how the
Republicans are, are in the Republican sock and they should
all become conservatives.
What is the point of this? What is the point of the CPAC? It
gets
a full attention of C span. So all the speakers we've never
seen before in your life, get the Go yakking away about one
thing who pays for all of this? Tedious who pays for all of
this? I don't know. The Koch brothers I have no idea.
So what's the point of it isn't the point is to be an indicator
of who's going to be the right candidate for 2016 a rally it's
a rally but rallies cost money someone's got
to pay to go to I don't have no idea. I don't care but this is a
good guy. This is the NRA guy so you can figure out what the
punch line is
the one that says C spec a C pack. Yeah, at the University of
Colorado at Colorado Springs officials recommend that women
defend themselves against a rapist with passive resistance.
passive resistance the one thing a violent rapist deserves to
face is a good woman with a gun
member we played that clip of the university security officer
who was saying you should pee or tell you to tell the rapist that
you're one of the you're gonna throw up remember that? Yeah,
that's what that was about.
Yeah, I guess I think the guns funnier.
No, I think funny was that there was a no agenda listener in the
audience. Did you hear him? No. Oh. Oh, you missed them right.
In the morning. Almost as good
also came with a message a message for the President. A
message is loud and clear. A message that doesn't mince words
that has to be a no agenda listener.
No drone me bro. I mean, come on. It has to be annoyed that
that is one of ours. That has to be
there's just no, but the timing is so beautiful. It I mean, only
a no agenda person can understand how you time
something like that. Yeah,
you're right. I think it was annoying. I want to know who
that is. That person is somebody give us get give yourself
credit. Give us an email.
I just want to hear that again.
came with a message, a message for the President. A message
that is loud and clear. A message that doesn't mince
words. That's not exactly what I was thinking.
Yeah, that's what we're thinking. That's what the no
agenda people think. Why is it why is it that our thinking is
so crazy?
I don't know. It makes sense to me. Yeah. It's
like, you know, don't drone me. Meanwhile, you know, it's an
outrage. It's just an outrage what Iran is doing. I mean, it's
just an outrage what they're doing with our drones. Just now
learn. Iran has targeted a US Predator drone as it flew over
the Persian Gulf in international airspace. The
incident earlier this week, saw Iranian military aircraft shadow
the drone and tell it left the area. Three administration
officials have confirmed the incident and all say No shots
were fired. The confrontation is just the latest here and Iranian
efforts to prevent the US military's intelligence
gathering operations in that region. I mean, we're so
arrogant. At least that's what our presstitutes are taught to
talk about, like, oh, you know, they won't let us fly. We won't,
they won't let us spy on them who they think they are.
I know, it's amazing. It's so it's so
matter of fact, I'm just blown away. I'm just really
blown away that they raised and shut the thing down.
Now, they're not stupid. Why What are they gonna
know, the theory behind it with a jet or you send a missile and
you blow it out of the sky and stops working, but what happened
and then they can claim they caught it.
But this it's really it's become I don't, you know, here's what's
happened. We no longer have a television kind of in our living
space. And I think that's a really a good thing that we used
to be in the morning, we, we'd have, you know, the news, and
we'd have CNN or Cisco and something on the morning, in the
morning, but no one kind of stay on. And, you know, it's very
unsettling when you think about it. It's not good for your
health, and I would it would be under the guise of I have to
know what's going on. But meanwhile, it's kind of like
waking up and someone taking a needle and poking it in your
retina. You know, it's just it's not a good thing for you, it
makes you irritated. So we moved here we couldn't really find a
place for the television for like little little news
television in the kitchen area. And I said you know what? Screw
it we're not going to do that. It's just not do it. So now what
has happened is when I'm in the camp MoPhO studio, or the Travis
heights hideout, of course I have several monitors here and
then it's it becomes that money I noticed that I am less I'm
more aware of how Orwellian it really is that they're really
trying to teach you something not give you it is just training
and because I haven't been so subdued or so knocked down by
the constant barrage that when I'm exposed to it had like a
Geiger counter you know now and like oh, wow, this is this is
amazing what's happening nothing really shows that as much as an
even though this is kind of from a week ago, you know, the big
sugary drink ban went into effect in in New York. So you're
not allowed to have a certain you know, you are not allowed
it was thrown up by a judge
it still went into effect you went into effect
that was my understanding it was thrown out by a judge
No, no, it went into effect and then get hell with
the courts. Hell with the law Hello I'm gonna bring up later
as his theme by the way with Thomas Drake good
and, and the editor this woman editor of Fortune magazine was
on I don't remember what show was made was warning morning
junk. And when you hear how the media is is all like, you know,
we we need to teach people you know, people need help people
are dumb people don't understand this portion control. You know,
because you you slaves are too stupid. It's it's, it's
frightening to me How To what lengths the media will go in
cahoots with government to literally control us. And I'm
waiting for the moment in CA NCIS, which is the number one
rated show on television on CBS. Tuesdays at eight, nine or 10
Eight Central.
They have this one character Abby, and she is the weirdo that
works in the lab. And she's like some sort of a genius in the
lab. And she when she gets to work on a big project, she
brings out one of those giant big gulps. Oh, huge one. They're
like 32 ounces. You're not allowed to have that. 16 is your
Mac's so blockbuster. And well, I don't know where they are.
They're ahead there. Well, they're in New York, aren't
they? No, no, just NCIS is it doesn't matter so much into the
Washington DC area. She'll
still say that she'll make a New York rush.
I believed that's what I'm waiting for I'm absolutely
convinced they're gonna be someone's gonna get a call. Hey,
you know we're trying to get the whole country on board and you
every time does Abby characters walking around with a 32 ounce
Big Gulp might be appropriate if you had her change her portion
size. Okay.
I think you well you know what your monitor that for us CBS
what does it Tuesdays nine eight central but do TV Guide now can
I just say something about this during was love. We talked a lot
about this show this is the Fortune magazine editor about
leadership and a lack of leadership and the mayor himself
has come on here and said, You know, sometimes you have to do
not what your people want you to do but what you have to take
people by the hand and lead them. In business. We talk about
the way Steve Jobs manage things, which is he doesn't do
what consumers want. He takes you and yanks you and gives you
something you didn't know you needed. And you know, I think
this is a case of that. I think that if you look at the obesity
rates, if you look at I also think it might be overturned
because the reasons the judge gave the loopholes, the refits
doesn't apply to refills. Those seem to be minor to me, you
know, look at what the mayor did with smoking that seemed just as
outrageous when he instituted it. And you know, I thank Him
every day when I go to a wealth when I used to go to bars you
slot when your hair doesn't smell like smoke, I mean, yeah.
You really so this is this is exactly what I said when when
the mayor said no more smoking anywhere, not even in the park.
And I still believe that if you want to have a bar filled with
smoke, I won't go into it anymore because even I'm like
disgusted. So that's but that's a commercial decision you got to
make up your own mind would find when he shut that down, I said
you watch. And so next it's you know the size of your drink. And
next it's going to be it's just going to keep going like that.
And then for these idiots, these douchebags
don't forget the salts fee,
which is still in effect. And these idiots to say, you know,
well, this is leadership to take you by the hand you stupid
slave, because you're too dumb. She
should be ashamed of herself Fortune Magazine, that kind of
editors we have nowadays.
It's just very, very disturbing to hear this and you know what's
going to be next? But I did I did like how she stumbled, like
when I go into a bar. Not that I go into bars anymore to be a
slug.
Yeah, that was funny. Yeah. So by the way, is anybody out there
with a sling box in Europe, sling box in Europe, I would
like to get a
book. Could you specify Would you like one in Cyprus?
I would like one anywhere in Europe. Cyprus would be great by
the HD version. Hopefully it would be best. And I would just
saying I got it. I've got a couple of New York that are
great. I got one in Tampa, one in LA or two in Calgary or one
in Calgary and two in Detroit. And that's about it. I don't
hate Detroit now. You're monitoring Detroit. Yeah, this
is unbelievable. What's going on there? You know, Detroit is
that's basically the Cypress of America.
Yeah. Was a lot of stuff going on, that's for sure. Well, so.
Let's just start it. For one thing. The old mayor was a
corrupt politician and his family apparent the whole family
was and so they got him indicted. And now the new guys
in there with all this crazy, you know, it's
not just the new guy. They brought in a law firm. They
brought in a company now in a financial
way. Well, that was the governor of the governor dinner, but
essentially told Detroit we are taking over the plane but
you know what it's for it's for derivatives. They're selling off
the water utility is emitted is Greece. It is Cyprus, they're
selling it off to pay off the service the derivative debt.
credit default swaps John, which they were of course, you know
who's behind this?
Yeah. Well, you'd probably guess Goldman Sachs and UBS
and it's all the same guys and Bank of America. This thing just
came in. They just, they just stole all of Detroit is not
small. This is not a small
little there's selling off the city itself. I didn't realize
that. Hey Buster, you want to city I got Detroit realize this
but Detroit is the city itself is massive. It's the size of La
it's huge. And by the way, Oakland is was like a bunch of
little communities that all did fine. And then they became a big
they all got together to save them. It's all to save money. So
you have one police force, one mayor, one bookkeeper, all the
rest of it. Like it doesn't work. The cities should not be
much bigger than a couple of square miles. And they should
each have their own community police forcing that and that
would be great for Oakland especially but places that
stayed out of this the one place Piedmont which is the one
community in Oakland because it was other towns fruit Vale
diamond there's a bunch of these towns they all became Oakland
beset fruit as at Piedmont Piedmont is that is now one of
the ritziest places in California to live
well this is the strategy in Austin which are spoken a couple
of Councilman all Democrats of course all total Obama tube
smokers and but still I like their strategy is like we want
to they they're gonna we're gonna have 10 more hotels here
over the course of the next 10 years which is needed because
it's just there's no room to do anything but no new roads you
want to build you want to be an awesome great go out Round Rock
Kyle you know Dripping Springs. So if you want to come into the
city you can either sit in traffic or you can you know go
at off hours or just not come you can be a part of our area
code you'll have different digits at the end but go out not
in the city and I think that's a very smart way to do it because
you don't want you to learn that this
thing is fantastic the Jerry Brown approach in California
that's what you got your 405 problem in Los Angeles because
no really no no no that's not a huge traffic jam and people are
gonna say oh this town stinks
good and then they'll go to Dallas or Houston which is where
we want them that's the whole thing and
you're gonna be stuck with this huge trap no
because we don't have traffic in Austin itself it's no no John
No,
no no no you got suckered by one of these sweet talkers about
your little dinners your swore
it was the celebrity fashion show actually.
Yeah, there you go.
I think it's a good strategy. I don't want more people I want
people to go elsewhere.
Yes, stop it. There's a population growth we don't we're
not at 150 million anymore. We're three
well then then we're gonna have 2 million we're going to start
shooting people then.
That's a better solution than this. This bullcrap you've come
up with, which is just I meant I meant the submarine close the
hatch. Buddy else Yes.
Yes. If you we saw a sign yesterday on South Congress. Now
listen, now listen, listen, this is the attitude of all stone
Ian's so there was a sign on South Congress that said Come
listen to live music here. Don't live here. That's exactly our
strategy. come spend your money get drunk
strategy that people cause the same thing I'm in the submarine
close the hatch. Yes, everybody but me we have no
economy here for you go away. There's nothing to see here.
Yeah.
workout by the way.
Well, so far. It's working great.
We love it always looks good in the beginning. You'll see there
also for you're going to be moving to Dallas if Mickey
manages to get renewed now. So you've done anyway with us? No.
I will not live in Dallas. I will No, absolutely absolutely
not.
personality to be honest about it. Blow me.
I'm not going to. That's totally the storm true. I'm so Austin
and so not Dallas. I'm not Dallas. What are you talking
about?
You're more conservative than you are that raving lunatic left
winger like you're sounding now with this. Let's stop building
highways and make everyone take a bicycle. I'm not understanding
why there's not a bicycle lane here. Bicycle lanes all over the
place around here and there's no bicycles in them.
There's a lot of bicycles here and it's very dangerous to ride
your bike.
You're in Texas.
I'm not a race. I'm not a lefty lunatic. I'm the that was just
not for me. No.
So I get you'll see. Anyway, so I got the Oh, you put it
in the Red Book. If you're so smart, or that you're gonna go
to Dallas. I'm not gonna move to Dallas. Okay, no way. If Mickey
were to get a full time being on Dallas, then I'd make we'd build
into a contract. A helicopter rental and I'd flyer? Uh huh.
Yeah. They you know, they pay per diem and all that and you
get like travel money. That's real professional.
Fine. You're moving to Dallas, you like it. There's a great
town. It's livelier than it actually has got a lot of stuff
going on. I don't want
that. I want to just chill here. You know, watch the spam and
it's arguments over you can say what you want. Everyone's heard
my point if you put it in. All right, you put it in the book.
It's in the book right now. It says move to Dallas. I don't
know what it means. You want that?
You'll be like, John, oh, wake up guy. I have to go to Dallas.
I don't know.
Why. I don't know.
I don't know. I must go.
So. So some of the drug commercials. We haven't been
playing him a lot recently, but they've gotten a lot more
aggressive. Oh, really? Yeah, they've got that this Cymbalta
is the one we've been follow. I think we've done two or three
iterations of their commercials. But this this one was just a jaw
dropper, Jimmy because it was essentially this is what they're
using the sucker the people In the buying some of these drugs
in this case Cymbalta it's like now it's like a personal it's
more of a you're a winner you've got to do this it's like it's
like a pep talk of orientation it's kind of like a you know one
of these speakers these these not inspirational but those
kinds of speakers that come out and then they get you all worked
up about stuff I've never really heard anything
like like for Herbalife when you're gonna go sell Amway?
Yeah. Was this kind of one of these kinds of things.
What is Cymbalta do again? What is this for? Some sort of weird,
isn't it for your penis? Is it for your pinion? It's
like a pain reliever that will kill you. It's essential.
Before we play, it's important. I think we should know what it
does before we listen to commercial cymbalta.com Okay,
that should be it depression. It's an antidepressant.
I thought it was for pain. It sounds like it's for pain from
this commercial.
Well, let's see what it says indicates Cymbalta is indicated
for the treatment of major depressive disorder. MDD Hmm.
The efficacy of Cymbalta was established in foreshortening
and
maybe it's not Cymbalta that does ads for I just put it on
the clip name.

topping

mechanism that is valium has which is Valley M is used as a
most muscle relaxant. And as an antidepressant so this
apparently is the next level but it was so I didn't make a
mistake so you wouldn't get the wrong prescription but you got
to play at the beginning again. What are you kidding me What is

Rand watch
how awesome was that new jingle It was great. Mac and cheese mac
and cheese by iron Rand. And it's two different guys by the
way. That's funny though because first Typically what one of our
producers said, Whenever I hear that mac and cheese jingle I
always think by iron Rand. I'm like, wow, that's a good one. I
put it together. I'm like, This is awesome. And Mickey was
angry. He's like, That's an insult to iron Rand.
Oh, God, is she a true believer? I didn't know that.
Who she just you? Did she cheat. I had never read the book until
she gave it to me. I didn't know that. Did
you know I did not know that. Now. She,
she, yeah, she she loves it. She's not an Objectivist or
anything like that. But she totally
sounds like to me when she goes offended by the mac and cheese.
Before we take a little break here, I would, I would like to
produce his foreword to this it was a blatant package. One of
these junket packages where the actor in this case director and
actor is interviewed by either several or one and then they
syndicate the interview without the person on camera. And so you
can you pretend that was your interview? We we when we
interviewed did Ben Affleck and you didn't it was just you took
out the original interviewers questions, and it's just an ISO
shot of the actor, in this case, actor, director, and one of our
thi sigh. This is of course, that not only is is this a whole
Bogut of movie about the CIA in the State Department, and it was
set up to coincide with the kidnapping of Ambassador
Stevens, which went horribly wrong and turned around and got
killed. And all that's all messed up. But you know, the
whole thing was commissioned through Clooney, including, of
course, is a known CIA asset, his handlers. What's the guy's
name again, is the long hair. Yeah, that guy. He's always got
a handler. And I think clearly his dad probably was in the
intelligence service. And we even know from Operation
Mockingbird and the church investigation that this has been
going on in the media. And certainly, it's shifted towards
Hollywood in the movies over the past couple of decades.
And as their board they have well, actually, when if we bring
up some like clips later, there's a good reason for that
happening. Because the press is just completely compromised in
such a way that nobody pays any attention to him anymore, and
people are more likely to pay attention with George Clooney
says, than what any observer any medium pundit would say,
but unfortunately Kim Jong on chose the wrong celebrate it. He
chose Dennis Rodman, which is so easy to ridicule, you know,
because he looks weird, and he says funky things. You've got
people, influencers of the world, elites choose your
celebrators wisely. You want Angelina Jolie, which is
whatever
they're with, they're all a compromise, you get where you're
going to find this not compromise. Oh,
it's very simple. Hello, all you have to do is make a new movie,
put enough marketing into it, make the star star and then you
MK Ultra their ass and you've got him. I'm amazed that these
Twilight kids haven't shown up and you know, maybe they're just
being molded, and they're the next wave or something? Well,
they're all done on drugs, you know, they're all wasted. So
that just not useful yet. But it's this, this is the system.
And so the question, of course, comes up. Because, as I said,
jokingly, and the answer comes back jokingly about us. So there
must be everyone in Hollywood must be a spy, although many
actors in Hollywood who also moonlight as agents, do you
think? I think they're probably quite a few? Yes, I think
probably Hollywood is full of CIA agents. We just don't know
it. And I wouldn't be surprised at all to discover that, you
know, this was extremely common. Yeah, that so that last part
that he said? I don't think for him, I don't think he's joking
at all. I think this is a typical case of someone calling
you on your BS. And so today, Holly was basically filled with
people who are compromised and run by the CIA. And he's trying
to make a joke out of it. Like, yeah, but I wouldn't really be
surprised. And then of course, the obvious question on my
cover, so there goes my career as the directing thing, but our
work? Well, don't worry, you that is your career, my friend.
It is your career is
funny, because, you know, we determined on the no agenda show
that the reason he wasn't nominated for Director
is because Hollywood was pissed off that he got all this kudos
for this movie. Right when it was paid
for by the CIA, or by the government, which was shown in
the credits. Obviously, there were a lot of the, you know,
where the lot of dissent from where it was coming from was in
Hillary Clinton. Yeah. So we had so so he gets no credit for
being a director because their Directors Guild or whoever was
probably you know, sandbag and they're saying This is bullshit.
And so then he comes out and he's not a liar. No, people
always say that, you know, the one thing you always remember
people always say that it's not possible for anyone to really
lie. They can they. It comes out one way or the other. So why
even bother They're even trying just say yeah, maybe I'm gonna
see agent. Oh, you're gonna believe if I say it was
That's right. Yeah, yeah, but clearly I will just pay
attention to what's going on people you'll see it that's why
Clooney is always looking down and all embarrassed.
Yeah Clooney doesn't like what he's up to no and he has
conscience but
I think he's like Damn man I got I got the place in in Cuomo you
know I got got the the lake house I got the babes you know,
like no one questions my homeless as it were. So no one
questions my homosexuality is you
right? If you if you want to see but he Yeah, but he does take a
little swipe now and again. I mean, if you want to, but the
most of those movies are suppressed, but if you want to
see a good movie, there's actually a couple of them. He's
done and they're always the art pieces. The American is a good
movie. It's about an assassin. Yes. Very good movie. Syriana.
Yes, and men who speak to goats Stare at Goats right
Syriana ministry, two goats and then that one.
Man and the goats who look scared next to them. Yes.
And then the other one is the one that he that Swinton won the
Academy Award for which I think is just I've watched it. It's
one of the few movies out you watch if it's if it's on. It's
on. Let me see Clooney.
Is it on Tuesdays on CBS at the 9am central
tomography. No, it might be tomorrow, I liked The
Men Who Stare at Goats. That was a pretty good movie. It was
weird.
He does a lot of films. I mean, this guy's just and there was
droning in
that too. That was kind of cool. That was kind of droning droning
movie
up in the air was actually good film. But it wasn't a political
movie. It was just about pathetic guy, Michael Clayton.
That's the name of the movie. Yeah, Michael Clayton is one of
the it's just a it's just a great, great film. It's about a
fixer in a big law firm. And it is riveting. And it's got all
kinds of creepy stuff going on. It's really you if you haven't
seen Michael Clayton you have to watch it. just rent it get it on
Netflix, whatever.
Sounds like sounds like a very good no agenda movie tip.
Yes. Yes or no agenda movie Tip of the Day.
And leading into that, you know, we we had we've had a number of
times where challenge coins have come up. And people have sold
them and there's a number of no agenda challenge challenge coins
out there. Can you still get them on? No agenda? nation.com.
Where is that?
I think he's pretty much out. Okay. The last ones were the
Inca.
Right? The the the Mayan coins.
Can I think Eric's going on now he's doing a mind cleanser.
Great. He's doing a constitution thing with handmade and actually
printed on the RE unreel. Parchment is very expensive.
Well, it's not that expensive. Oh, it's
like 200 bucks, but it's handmade. It's
for the regular ones. But the one that's going to be the
really collectible one. Hey,
wait, wait to help the guy out with some sales. It's really
expensive. It is. But he makes him by hand in the shack out
there in the back.
Well, the one expensive one.
Well, you've given him you haven't given him the ace the
802 dot 11 AC Access. Now he just gets in
the hands of one, which I think is I don't know what it is. But
it's that is actually going to be a collectible. Oh yeah, he's
only gonna make a couple 100 of them. Right. Yeah. The reason I
brought this up is because there's a law a bill has been
introduced. Because I guess this this once we started doing
challenge coins, like everyone just really got into challenge
coin business. And now there's hr 1218 to prohibit the payment
of surcharges for commemorative coin programs to private
organizations or entities. So I think that that's gotten out
even mean because people are making challenge coins and
selling them for like 100 bucks. And what and yeah, but in
government and so you know, the government government is the
government's buying up the challenge coins instead of you
know, a challenge coin whatever challenge coin is worth, you
know, the pain like 100 bucks and then that money is going to
some it's being it's whitewashing essentially their
white washing through challenge coins.
So the I've got a couple challenges I forget somebody
send us something in December I gotta kill him to have his name
in front of me. But he said did you ever get it was a couple of
challenge coins, which I have and some pistachios and Stevies
it you have to realize now that I did get them. I got all this
stuff because I was going through my drawer of challenge
coins along next to the ink drawer. And there were two of
these F 35 StrikeForce challenge coins. Oh, wow. Yeah, you got
one with your nice.
Oh, thank you.
It's a beauty.
There's another there's another move just as another movie tip.
Where the hell Mickey already took it. As Sergeant Fred gave
us the movie about Viva Cristo Rey. It's It's like the Mexican
I just haven't we haven't watched it yet but I'm gonna
review this movie he says it's like a the original hit him in
the mouth movie it's got to Peter Oh tools in there and he's
been talking about for a long time he finally he finally went
out and just bought us the DVD he's like here you have to watch
it. So I'll have a have a review of that next week.
Okay, well I have a New York Times report then

so we had a little Harper didn't get his call out for his
birthday show and apparently little Harper amongst the other
children that listen to our show for some some unknown reason,
maybe from the bells was apparently very disappointed.
And what exactly is it that little Harper likes so much that
which jingles are the ones? I don't know. I think it's the
thing that's a good one for them to be talking to. They're I
think All kids should just be saying, Hey, Mom. Hey, Mom.
Slave
also the mofo thing is a good one we measure encourage that
the you know the

kid who's ever listened to the show so when you when you grow
up when you're 18 this will surface in your brain mac and
cheese mac and cheese by Iran they're gonna be so messed up
John.
So Mark Fosco is our first name to be mentioned as a as our
producer for show of 49766 I just look up on the thing and I
can is this something about buzzkill Jr that he's like, is
he adamant on on telling us that we're idiots that it's actually
497 when it's not? Or does he not listen to the show? Does he
you know why did he stop listening to the show? Okay,
that's fine, because he's not here. He's at this boot camp.
So I can't yell at him then.

Virginia Beach. Virginie,
this, these are all these are all doubles. I'm telling you.
This is last week's spreadsheet dude. Your damn Tonya. I've seen
the sheet.
I don't remember the 7007 You would have said something then
to No. I don't remember 7007. Huh. Well, whatever the case is,
we're going to thank these people.
But thank you. Thanks. This is a good double thanks. It's the
only people who get gypped or us
says Scott sands. I'm telling you I follow these numbers and
how much I put in the bank and everything else and these are
not there's a number of dupes in here but it doesn't amount to
that much. Scott Stansted in orange, Vale, California.
Richard Chou Parts Unknown. Tanya Wayman, Dame Canyon, New
York is maybe a rerun Thomas although she gives a lot Thomas
leaves in London and that's the end of the 16th and 16 I was
just kind of short Funny
thing is it's not a repeat of last week it's a repeat of the
week before that. That's what's crazy. That's what's driving me
nuts is that this is this is not from Thursday. This is from a
Sunday ago. Be funny. I mean, I'm just pointing it out I mean,
I just don't understand it that's all I don't understand
how it works.
Well Hmm. Well, if anybody
because he hears C mon menarik SNI from Poland his donation is
a double I'm looking at looking at 495
Maybe a mistake here that is that maybe my doing now they
think about it. What did you do? Well, it's a long story. I don't
want to
I'm telling you. This is this
has to be religion. You opening up a spreadsheet for for nine.
I'm looking at 495 and they're all the same. Not all the same.
No. Let's face it make any sense? I'm telling you there's
got to be a Pay Pal thing.
No, no, no. I'm believing it's a PayPal thing. That's but that's
rather concerning.
I agree that there's a bank. Well, they pay pal is pretty
good at straightening these things out.
Yeah, but when you're doing a best podcast and university on
Make sure you got the birthdays, right. You just want to make
sure you only do have
two birthdays, right, I
believe. Okay. As long as we're not screwing over a producer
because
we have that birthday from the 10th Did we do it then? I don't
know. We'll worry about it later. I
think that was 2000 It was 2010 that birthday.
Robert Gould, John grumbling Steven J. Nelson and wheat
ridge. Kevin Ayers and broom failed Colorado, also Robert
Cain and colombiana which does sound familiar and he's a 73
Four. Yes, I've
seen this one to the end for IX T
of two Eric Schmidt and leap Zig, I believe is he donated
Katie, McCarran and Roanoke. I don't remember that one. And
she's wishing a birthday for the 13th some house buying karma.
Oh, well, let me give her a little house buying karma. Which
doesn't matter. Sir Paul Vela, Sir Philip, Misa and I know is
new. Because I saw that one come in myself. And he's in pounds.
UK. And he said, Yeah, well,
so Katie mckernon is on the list here. And that was we did that
on the last show. Okay, so the birthdays are not correct. This
is an incorrect birthday.
Yeah, I don't know what happened. I think there's
something happened on the Pay Pal download?
No, I mean, I told you, sir, get mostly they've told me that Pay
Pal is and all kinds of crap going on. And I think even sir
Oscar and a debt will not hold on a second, this warrants a a
moment of check here. Just see if we do 495. I mean, you know,
we can't really we run a business here. We can't if we
can't rely on PayPal. It's a problem.
But this has anything to do with the cloud. The whole world is
screwed the cloud,
we need to go to the back. Let's go to Bitcoin. I'm telling you
know, we should have our own spreadsheets. We should have our
own counts and do everything through the mechanics bank.
Well, how come when I'm doing that then? Because like you
talked about a lot of extra work. Oh, sorry. So this show
we've been doing for five years we have one glitch and your go
out? No.
Oh, hold on, hold on. Pipe down by
saying well, what are you doing kissing that woman? I'm out of
here.
Yeah, that would happen. But But pipe down pipe down. I'm not
blaming you. I'm not angry. Oh, shit. What happened here? I'm
not angry. You know, something went away. I'm trying to I'm
trying to open up some information just trying to track
down the source of our source here.
My concern is that we're as people that did give this week
and one of
my concerns Harper that's my concern.
Who got screwed last time?
That's all I'm concerned about. It's like I know I'm okay. Yeah,
we'll work over here birthdays here. Simon Bennett's or Oscar
Nadal Katie mckernon. That's last week's birthdays. That's
the last show. So what do we have now? I don't know Harper,
which was
home last night. What about the new night was that last week?
Hold on Who was a night last week we had was knighted. Yeah.
FASCO and Oregon Johnson we already knighted them
this is a bed this is the bad spreadsheet everyone who donated
to this show which apparently was show 49654 Just got a double
call out.
Right but I'm not going to reunite.
No, you're not reuniting any but
we also have no birthdays. We have no F Harper now I'm
confused Hold on a second. Hold on let me check something I now
I'm maybe my God. This is this is a train wreck.
shorten this segment. Now it's longer.
This is a train wreck of a segment. Hold on. I was just
looking at something wrong here. Now I'm really confused. Okay,
here we go. This is 495 I do have some records. Which i i
Okay, birthdays. Who do we have on the birthdays? We had? No,
no, no, no, no, no, no. No, I'm incorrect. John. These are new
nights.
Fosco wasn't knighted last show.
I don't think so. That's a summary.
Maybe he was just talking
about getting knighted. Yeah, it doesn't matter. We'll fix all of
this.
If we can. Now I got an interesting thing. I got a note
a nasty note from Ashley our Ashley organics a woman the
Fisher Yeah, she says you unsubscribe me the no agenda.
Want to be Secretary I am hurt. John knew on Thursday my
donation will come hopefully it'd be on the spreadsheet.
Thank you for the next show. Thanks for the awesome show.
Have a wonderful Sunday. You know it do what the newsletter.
Oh, she didn't get it. Ashley, check your spam box. And in fact
that what the two places do this, that new outlook.com
Everything goes to spam and Apparently there are some
there's some other mailer that everything goes to spam. There
was a bunch of commentary in the in the G. Google Plus forum, no
agenda forum, moaning and groaning that Google is sending
our newsletter into spam. Oh, yeah. Gmail. Yeah. Correct.
Yeah, Gmail, which is worse. All right.
Can I Can I just make a recommendation? Let's have a
quick meeting here. And then we'll be done with it. So first
of all, we just need to figure out what, where something went
wrong. And that's, you know, I'm pay pals. There's some iffy
stuff there. May I make a recommendation? And this is the
only meeting we're gonna have? Can I recommend that we perhaps
look at hiring someone else because I think buzzkill Jr. is
busy with other things, and he's got his life going. And we need
someone who's who's going to troubleshoot this on our behalf.
And you know, we have a little budget to do that. I think we
should just consider it. I mean, I like keeping things in the
family. But you can't fire your son. You know, this kind of
sucks. Oh, yeah, I
can. In fact, that's what you're asking me to do right now? No,
I'm
asking you to let him go on hiatus. Yeah, you
told me to fire him. You say I can't find my son. But you're
denying that I can't, that I can by just telling me to do it
doesn't make any sense. The point is, is that if this is a
Pay Pal thing, I don't know what he's gonna do about it. But he's
done a better job, I think than anyone so far. And if you want
you want to turn over to a third party to do I, I'm involved,
spend whatever it takes, but I think it's a nightmare.
I'm only this that, as we know, I produce, I do the mp3. I deal
with all the crap when the show doesn't work, etc. And by the
way, when something doesn't work, here's the message I get
from you showed on your work. Thanks.
That's bullcrap. That's,
that's, that's how the email. That's how the email comes
across. That's how crap that's how the emails come across.
I don't care. It's bull crap they use. And besides that, I
never say anything. I just forward somebody pitching to me.
Okay, so you've never ever in all caps, like years ago? And
how come you've stopped? You stopped doing that? You don't do
that anymore. You just nice now? Yeah. Okay. First of all, I need
to I don't
just said and forwarded to me,
I don't want to. I like the fact that you're straightforward.
This is what I like about you. You don't you don't say, Hey,
man, I'm thinking like, well, you know, you say, hey, it's
sucks get the thing working again. And you know, and I it's
taken me several years to understand. But now I accept it.
Well, that's why I don't do it anymore.
You can't rile
me anymore. Because of No, you don't you don't get the desired
effect of me getting all angry and upset. That's why you
stopped doing it. Probably. Okay. Well, anyway, I like this
direct communication. So I'm saying, you know, this, I don't
care what you do. But we've had some Pay Pal some spreadsheet
issues in the past past couple of weeks. Yeah.
Well, I don't know. We had a lot we had missed Harper. It
matters. But this thing here doesn't look like anything that
anyone could figure out. This is just too weird. It's got you and
it's this has been happening for a while these doubles. And it's
been happening for a while stuff was going on. And I think it's a
cut and paste spreadsheet issue.
No, I'll tell you why. That's not the case. It can't possibly
be because I know how exactly how I download these things. And
let me explain. I download. I know I download from Date
Specific to Date Specific. And then I never used that same
date. Even if I miss a few. How come you're
doing this work? How combust What are you doing to download
because it's our bank account. And I'm not giving out all the
passwords to everybody in the world and letting it go floating
around. He could download but he doesn't. He won't be I'm
specifically downloading this. Okay, specific to him and he
does all the rest of it. Well, there's no way you can have
duplication like this just trying to help you on the thing
unless it's in the Pay Pal document
and we just agree on one thing. You do nothing wrong. You're
awesome. It's never your fault. Let's just agree on that.
Okay, let me write that down. We use that as a premise. To
boruch.org/a
Simon Bennett congratulates himself he celebrated on the
11th Cir, Oscar Nadella celebrated on the 10th I can't
believe that we didn't congratulate them on the
previous show. But there you go. And Katie mckernon says Happy
Birthday to her husband are lovely hubby who turned 45 again
on the 13th. Then of course we already said hi to little Harper
the new human resource it turned five on Tuesday. Happy birthday
from all your buddies here at the no agenda show And okay, so
who were we knighting that hold on a second here. We were
knighting. Who was going to be the sambal? Yay. But what he
wasn't a night yet, right? But yeah, I don't remember a summer.
Yeah, a night. No, but I think he wanted to be a sommelier.
Yeah, I know. That's what he says. Okay.
We're not there yet. Are we?
Yeah, he's a knight.
He's a knight. And who is that?
Oh, you gotta get open one thing after another. Where's our
phone? flog grog guy?
I just want to make sure I do it right. I don't want to mess it.
Yeah,
I'm looking. I'm looking.
I have Mark FASCO Mark Roscoe. He wants to be the
song wants to be okay. All right. FASCO.
All right. All right. Let me see if I can get this going. And I
just need your sword as you bring that. Yes, you've got that
one. I've got mine. Okay. Mark FASCO. Org handsome. Step
forward. Gentlemen. Both of you have supported the no agenda
podcast in the amount of $1,000 or more, and We highly
appreciate that support is exactly what we need. And we
need more knights to protect the nation and the fare damsels. And
of course we need some Dame to protect the stupid knights who
always done so Hereby I pronounced the Sir Mark fiasco
FASCO are some of the Knights and Johnson I think Knight of
the brown cheese. Gentlemen, please join our roundtable for
all of your goodies hookers and blow rent boys Chardonnay hump
handsome booze, wenches and beer of swag raw and so turns, Guy
says and socket vodka and Billabong hits and bourbon,
sparkling cider and escorts mutton and meat and for the
younger nights breast milk and pablum. And thank you very much.
And as you promised, John, did you put the new levels on the
donation page?
I said by Thursday? Oh, exactly what I said, if you remember,
no, I'm
just I just asked. Yeah, I just asked
Thursday, we'll have it for anyone who wants it.
For anyone who wants it. There's tons of nights out there who
wants to go to the next level? But I don't know what the next
level is. Well, have you thought of it?
Yeah. I'm just I'm really irked about this.
Hold on a second. Hold on a second. Hey, this is sounds
complaining about the sword sounds just make sure that that
was a valid knighting. There was definitely multiple sword hits.
Yeah, there was a valid double hit there. Yeah. Well,
that might have drowned a little bit in the processing. So I want
to make sure that was out there. Hey, John. Oh, my goodness. My
goodness. Has the President of the United States. Is it
possible that he has gone insane? Bonkers. totally
bonkers. Is this
I mean, it's it makes logical sense because you get to assume
somebody you know it comes sensually was a street walker.
The president the organizer, scurried Walker. Well, you walk
around the street a lot. So is that what that means? Yeah. So
So
I watched his little show. And I'm like, Oh, my God, this is a
I got an email from him. And there's all this stuff. It's
like they got an email. There's a whole camp,
once you invite you to the White House. You know, I
wish now listen, everybody pile everybody. That's how he always
starts with this little Heil everybody. And he's not not at
home. He's not at home, which I find crazy, because he stopped
the tours, you know, as it might be nice and quiet. But he likes
to be out on the road. And he's hailing everybody from Chicago.
As a nation, our top priority is growing our economy and creating
good middle class jobs.
This is our this our priority as a nation. What do you think our
priority is a nation should be? Is it? I mean, it might be
right, growing our economy and creating good middle class jobs
for the slaves. Is that our is that our top priority?
I thought the priority was uphold the Constitution. Well,
that's
his priority. But now he's telling us what our priority is.
Our priorities
is the is to bang the American dream. Yeah, bang actresses.
I got a ton of priorities. But creating a ton of middle class
jobs is not my priority. But okay.
That's why this week, I'm speaking to you from the Argonne
National Laboratory in Illinois.
Oh, have you looked this thing up? Ever heard of
Oregon? The laboratory? Yeah, they have
Sandia. They have a billion dollar budget. It's a it's a
government funded thing.
Yeah, it's one of the places I believe works on fusion. Well,
no, they work on battery cars, apparently.
Because few areas hold as much promise as what they're focused
on right here. Harnessing American energy,
harnessing American energy.
Fusion fusion resource search as far as I knew batteries could be
wrong.
After years of talking about it, we're finally poised to take
control of our energy future. Do we produce more oil than we have
in 15 years, we import less oil than we have in 20 years, we've
doubled the amount of renewable energy we generate from sources
like wind and solar, with 10s of 1000s of good jobs to show for
it
through. Wow. So what happened is, he's not mentioning all the
companies that went bankrupt that got all that bailout money,
or I'm sorry, the stimulus money, we're producing more
natural gas than ever before. With hundreds of 1000s of good
jobs to show for it. We supported the first new nuclear
power plant since the 1970s. And we're sending less carbon
pollution into the environment than we have in nearly 20 years
because we're
broken. We can't afford the gas dude. Here's here's where it
comes. This is, I found this to be very peculiar what he's about
to say here, but we're
making real progress. But over the past few weeks, we've got a
reminder that we have more work to do. We went through another
spike in gas prices, just like last year, and the year before
that. It happens every year. What is that
about? That? I thought that's, that to me is like my head just
spun around. spikes and gas happen every year? Why?
Why did that? What? No, you're right. This is not this is a new
meme.
I mean, he's like it happens every year. So your stupid
slashing happen every year. I
mean, it does happen. I mean, there's seasonal gas
fluctuations, generally speaking, but spike in gas
happen every year,
every year. And we should and we're stupid, we're stupid. If
we if we stick with this program, that's what he's
saying. It's a serious
blow to your budget. By getting hit with a new tax coming right
out of your pocket.
So we'll want over the past four
years, as part of our all of the above energy strategy, we've
taken steps to soften that blow by making sure our cars use less
gas.
Okay, now, now you've done some study on this. What are the
actual so there's what is the actual mile per gallon that,
that these great vehicles are getting that we can't afford, by
the way?
Well, it looks like whatever the EPA number is, you deduct from
10, five to 10 miles per gallon to get the real number. So like
the best cars, I've driven a couple of Ford's long distances
to that have supposedly 47 miles a gallon, they get 37. Under but
the thing is, if they're hybrids, they get 37. No matter
what you do, you go up a hill, it gets 37, you go down a hill,
it gets 37, you go into the city gets 37, you drive on the
highway at 60 miles an hour for 10 hours, it gets 37, which is
good, that's ridiculously good gas mileage. But how much more
how much more is bogus, they've created a false, I haven't been
able to figure out what's going on. But because I haven't driven
enough of these cars. But these numbers are the BPA numbers that
are calculated some way which are used by the manufacturers
are completely bogus, and the manufacturers know it.
Well, but it's even worse. He's kind of, they're also expensive.
You're paying a lot of extra money for the hybrid nature of
these cars. Well just listen to a few more seconds. And I want
to go to his little speech there at the Argonne labs,
we put in place the toughest fuel economy standards in our
history, so that by the middle of the next decade, our cars
will go twice as far on a gallon of gas,
but the gas will be twice as expensive. So you'll be in the
same hole and we've got the spike every year
over the life of a new car, the average family will save more
than $8,000 at the pump.
No, no, no, because what you said is exactly right. Yeah, the
only
way we're gonna break the cycle of spiking gas prices for Good
is to shift our cars and trucks off of oil for good. They're
gonna run on water. That's why in my State of the Union
address, I call on Congress to set up an energy security trust.
So this is what's happening. So I got this email about the
energy security trust. And this is clearly whatever they've
decided, I guess I have to sidetrack the President right
now everyone's in place. Like we got Brennan running the drones.
We got Hagel doing whatever they tell him to do remove the crap
from Russia, put it over here, put some putting, you know, go
North Korea scary. So they got to put this guy on his legacy
tour. That's what this is about. And his legacy is going to be
this energy security trust. And I looked at the numbers and it's
it's the biggest pile of horse crap I've ever seen. Over 10
year period, they want to tax energy companies. By giving by
taking away the breaks they get, which is a lie because it is a
rule anything produced in America, such as American oil
and gas, but also movies and software. You get a special US
production credit. That's the credit they're talking about.
We've deconstructed it many times on this show. They want to
take some of that credit from the oil and gas company
specifically, not from the software, the movie business and
put that Add into the trust and they want to build the trust up
over 10 years to $2 billion. I'm like, Are you? Why are you
wasting my time or anyone's time? $2 billion. That's
nothing. That's $200 million a year. That's a rounding error,
just terrible. Who gives a crap. This is only grandstanding for
the President's legacy. And then, and he sends him a legacy.
But he's so frustrated. Listen to what happens when he's at
this arc. And he's rolling out the same lines as his little
Heil everybody speech. And then he tells everyone that have to
clap for
him. We've set some achievable but ambitious goals. So in the
middle of the next decade, we expect that you'll fill up half
as often, which means you spend half as much and over the life
of a new car, the average family will save more than $8,000 at
the pump. Cricket That's worth applauding a
clap for me as big news. Clap. That's big news. Clap for me.
Wow. He must have had somebody out. There encouraged. Well, you
know, it's very easy to do you put about three shills and they
are clapping like crazy and everyone claps
they got the script. In one hand,
apparently they're getting lazy.
I mean, listen, he's waiting for the applause. Crickets and then
he and then someone starts, but he's like, Hey, what happened to
my queue? It's big news. Because it says in the teleprompter,
wait for hold for applause.
We've set some achievable but ambitious goals. So in the
middle of the next decade, we expect that you'll fill up half
as often, which means you spend half as much what and over the
life of a new car. The average family will save more than
$8,000 at the pump. Cricket, Cricket Cricket that's worth
applaud. Hey, clap for me. It's big news.
Awesome clap for me. For me.
It's ridiculous
but this is so so this guy so he's out he's doing the legacy
two I think he's just been sidelined completely. They
filled up all the slots they need they got the new we haven't
even talked about the treasury secretary. And we've got the SEC
shield and it's all lawyers. It's all revolving door. It's
it's completely wall to wall with with shadow puppet theater.
They put him out on the sideline, but it's so but they
won't let him eat. They're starving him now. This is a
representative Susan Collins and the President came to have lunch
you know he's doing his hands across America to or whatever
he's gonna have lunch with the Republic have lunch with a
Republican day. But apparently he didn't have his food taster
with him.
pointed that out to the president in keeping with the
First Lady some initiatives and facts family potato chips major
risk Academy where I'm proud and wow blueberry pie full of
antioxidants. See this was a healthy lives as well. And we
did have a little ice cream. I also made a main Gifford's ice
cream. So this was well received. Unfortunately, you
know, the President can get the you know, the he looked
longingly. He honestly, like lightning Lian, but apparently
has, you know, essentially a taster. And I pointed out to
him, we were all taste
it's been rumored but this is kind of proof. I didn't know but
he has a taster. And if the taste is not there, he can't
accept any food.
A friend of mine who's a chef in San Francisco got to cook at the
White House. And he says this is really horrible. Because you
when you go out to shop for the vegetables, you have to have two
or three Secret Service guys with you. And then they take and
they buy a unit and they check everything that you buy and then
they double check it and then they're watching the way you
cook and they're just on your case and their and their food
tasting the stuff you bought. And all that kind of thing is
apparently a nightmare.
Do you think that when he was smoking that the someone would
have to take a few drugs first and see if he got high or
something?
Yes, good. Is it over as it over? You can ask them
to me so meanwhile, we have Bill Gates being interviewed for Bill
did you know that Bill Gates is saving the world? One black
child at a time? He's like child at a time one black child at a
time?
Is this gonna take him a while you know, Bill
Gates is gonna wake up one day, and that wife that he married
he's she's gonna be shriveled up. She's gonna be she's gonna
be a growler. And he's gonna go cloud. Wow, man, I did all this
dumb stuff for this. It's gonna happen you watch. I mean, it's
weird. I understand him. He's nerdy. You know, but hey, she'll
get old and ugly bill and then you're gonna you're gonna regret
all this key. So
what would you what would you rather have him do
fix Windows eight, I don't know, do something is he's great when
he's when he's in the company and he's doing things. But you
know, so don't just take $2 billion, give it to the
President tell him to go play golf. So he has his energy
security initiative that Bill wishes he were a dictator, they
how do you feel President Obama's doing?
Some days, I wish we had a system like the UK, where, you
know, the party in power could do a lot. And then, you know,
you'd see how it went. And then fine, you can unselect them. Now
over time, our system has worked slightly better than they're
slightly okay. But so it's ironic that right now, it feels
like I wish there was slightly more power in the presidency to
avoid some of these deadlocks. So you know, I think, you know,
his what he wants to do, and what he's actually able to do
the gap is so big there. That it's it's hard, hard to know, in
some ways
it bill, he clearly didn't study politics in high school.
Obviously, he's doesn't know how the system works.
I mean, any wish the President had more Pacific reach, yes.
All these executive orders, and this other bypasses that Obama
and others have tried to pull are all illegal, and there's
just not the way the system is supposed to work. What does he
want to do that so important, that bill says he should be a
dictator?
Well, I have a couple of ideas. It's all about corporatism. It's
all and he's big in the corporate space. And he's over
there buying stuff now in Egypt, and they're all on the big gravy
money train, and he knows how it works. But Melissa is run isn't
Melinda, Melissa? What's her name? I don't know, Growler.
We're just gonna call her growler gates. In Australia,
people are rolling their eyes at that term. Let me read you two
entries from the Federal Register. As bad Chad always
does. He's checking the Federal Register, but he throws it into
our little system. There are card Larry river system, things.
Thanks for the sound effect. Let's see $100 million loan from
the export import long I'm sorry, a long term loan or
financial guarantee. And this would be two huh?
Oh, man, I'm sorry. I just I just completely Oh, here it is
Boeing for the 777 aircraft $100 million loan from the US
government in order to to be used for long haul passenger
service these jets to be put into service for Indonesia,
Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. And these will be
exported. So that's the Boeing Corporation getting $100 million
dollars. Also in the Federal Register, General Electric
receiving a $100 million loan from the US government, which is
pretty much interest. It's not even it's a long term financial
guarantee. It's you know, so they don't it's just note don't
have to pay anything back. And that's to support the export of
General Electric turbans to the United Arab Emirates. mean this
is I find this disturbing. What? Yeah. So GE, which is doing
quite fine as a company basically just got $100 million
to help build turbans for export to the the Arab Emirates. Okay,
let's not here need to be doing this. We got slaves at home,
starving, eaten mac and cheese.
Wow, this is just the way they do things. I don't like it.
Well, apparently John McCain does
it. He has 20 houses. He didn't give a crap about us. Anyway, I
want to lean into some of your stuff. And I want to
congratulate you. The first time I ever heard the term national
security letter was on the show it came out of your piehole. And
this is now a big deal as a federal judge apparently has
overturned the use of the national security letter. In
this case it was used I guess it was used for for FOIA requests.
And the way it's traditionally been used the national security
letter is to go snoop on someone The FBI says hey, we're gonna go
look in like, okay, here. Here's an example Google. We want to
look at John C. Dvorak email and mess with his Pay Pal
spreadsheets. So we're gonna do that and we're issuing this
national security letter so you can't tell anyone we're doing it
for it's a felony and you'll be imprisoned, imprisoned, correct.
And, but it can also be issued in other ways. I believe like,
hey, George Clooney, you're now a spy working for us. Here's
your national security letter. If you ever say anything, you're
going to prison.
Right? Could be or Hey,
all you people in Benghazi who were victims. You were issued?
You're the member, there was like 30 other people?
Can they all disappeared?
Well, they didn't.
I've had contact with some of the survivors, Lindsey Graham,
I've heard their story is chilling, they feel afraid to
tell it is important. They come forward to tell their story. The
best evidence of what happened in Benghazi, is not a bunch of
politicians in Washington trying to cover their political ass is
the people who lived through the debacle.
This is this was what you said at the time, John, you said I
bet these people who were taken off to Germany who we've never
seen or heard from all receive national security letters, and
they were told to shut up about what really happened?
Well, that's what appears to be no other real reason for why
would somebody say, Oh, it was so chilling and miserable. I
mean, even though you live through it, I can't do want to
talk about it.
That's, that's not it? Well, I think they're just reaching out
to Senator Graham, who went to see them went to find him and
they're saying, oh, man, there's, some of them are still
injured. Some of them still actually, listen,
and I'm gonna do everything I can to get them before the
Congress and the American people in appropriate fashion, so that
we can learn firsthand
what happened in Benghazi. And I think the appropriate
he's aware of the national already, yes, that's my point.
And so I said, you're gonna do everything he can. Which means
he's gonna have to fight the letter, which, which is not
going to be able to do well.
So we just had this, this this judge come out and say national
security letters are unconstitutional, because it
hampers you know, your your right to freedom of speech.
Yeah. Because you can't say it's like Fight Club, they call it
the Fight Club letter. The one thing you can't do is you can't
say you ever got one, right? You can't say what they tell you,
you can't say. And then it says that you can't even talk to a
lawyer. You can't even tell a lawyer that you're in a national
security letter, or you're in breach of some law, some
administrative law, which will put you in prison.
So do you think that this is me the shits going on? Well, do
you? And apparently this started in the 80s, this this, this
started
winning, bright idea, and then they started abusing it as
usual.
So do you think that this judge overturning the the National
Security Letters won't hold for other NSL? Do you think it's
just a brief blip on the radar or
a sad man, that's all we have to do is listen to some of these
clips I have from Thomas wrote a whistleblower? Who gave a long
talk of long depressing talk,
let me guess, let me guess was this on C span? Yes, hold on one
we don't have to. See.
So we can all be depressed together. And this is Thomas
Drake speaking in front of the National Press Club, where he's
just pretty much laying out all the problems, and he does your
memories in NSA executive, he's the one who blew the whistle on
the illegal wiretapping that was going on. And here's the after
he's done with his speech. These are the questions and answers.
And this is the first question which is on being a
whistleblower.
After your experience, would you advise someone else in your
position to blow the whistle on government wrongdoing?
Yes, but make sure you understand what you're getting
yourself into. Do not speak to the FBI, and make sure you have
a lawyer right from the start. If my case is any example,
they'll do everything they can to take anything you say, and
anything they find and use it to justify charges. That in my
case, were actually framed. See, I told the truth to the FBI
agents. They didn't believe me. In fact, four of the 10 felony
counts were for making false statements. One of them was for
obstructing justice. You know why? Because the chief
prosecutor said that unless I cooperate with the
investigation, they're going to pursue prosecution. So the
answer is yes. We actually more having spoken to Daniel Ellsberg
he actually thought in the early 70s With all the publicity that
surround the Pentagon Papers, that more people would actually
step forward. And other than some close colleague new
associates, guess what? Hardly anybody else stepped forward
regarding the travesty of Vietnam. Wow.
So So So essentially, he had all his documentation for the
illegal wiretapping. He presents it to the FBI. They say you're
full of crap this is not happening now. We're going to
charge you is giving false information. Yeah. Got a free to
find it as false now what
eautiful what regime was this? Was this, the bush to
Bush to you? Yeah, okay. So the 20 way he does a lot of other
things. This is an interesting one. This clip here is kind of
interesting. This is Drake is talking to a rip a to a reporter
is illegal. This was an interesting question.
You mentioned that former colleague said to you that they
believe talking to reporters is a crime. Do you believe that
attitude is pervasive among government employees, and maybe
you could address it inside and outside of the intelligence
community?
It is true that in the intelligence community, which I
was a part for many, many years, both as a government employee
and as a contractor, and even in the military, that you are you
do sign secrecy agreements. And these vary based on the agency.
The secrecy agreement that I signed was to was to protect the
agreement, what they call protected information, which by
definition was classified truly classified, or under
classification review. It was actually carefully articulated
in terms of executive statutes and rules. In this particular
case, when you're referencing, I just want to be very careful
here in my wording, okay. Because you're referencing
former colleagues. There was this misunderstanding that if
you happen to speak to a reporter that by definition,
anything that you might say to them could be characterized as
classified, because you unless it was authorized, then you were
in an unauthorized status, and therefore you are liable under
administrative rules. Like I said, there are distinctions
between agencies, although increasingly they're
centralizing this to the DNI. You may have heard very recently
that James Clapper, the Director of National Intelligence, is now
had directing adding a question questions to the polygraph
palette polygraph mechanism in which individuals that either
they're going to be obtaining a clearance or retaining an
existing clearance will be asked about unauthorized contact with
the press. And so yes, I had individuals that I used to work
with, who assumed that it was criminal under the US law to
have any contact whatsoever with a reporter. In fact, I was even
asked that question by Scott Pelley on 60 minutes a couple
years ago, slave.
So now we can understand a little better why CNN and these
other news outlets are they can't have no news. Why they
have no news. They got no news. But then it gets even worse when
you play this clip, which is wiretapping journalist question
okeydoke variation to this question as well. Is the
government spying on reporters right now? Oh, well, we
don't need to listen to the whole clip. Yes. You can take
three minutes to answer.
I think the question is wrong. Our reporters CIA is the
question.
I hear you laughing. See, here's the dark side. Because there's a
whole lot I have still have not shared fully publicly, okay.
Although I've shared this with 911 congressional investigators.
I've shared it with others in Congress. When I was still in
the government as a senior executive. I've made allusions
to it and other public fora. I've written about it. I
remember what happened in the 50s 60s 70s, right. Where
instruments of national power were used against reporters, it
was natural power use against activists, for protesters, those
that became quote unquote, designated as enemies of the
state. Remember, at one point, Daniel Ellsberg himself was
declared to be the most dangerous man in America.
Hold on, I just got to interrupt this. So when you're an enemy of
the state, that's when those CSS guys come in. John, if you got
to go back and watch the movie with Hackman, that's what I was
advised. When your enemy of the state that's when the CSS comes
out, and that's when you're screwed. That's when you get
double tapped. And this is crazy. This is great stuff. By
the way.
We'd very go on you didn't mention that reporter. If you
listen to this, and I believe this is probably true. I think
the number of reporters that are compromised as agents nowadays
is probably minimal. I think there's a few leftovers from the
olden days and you can find them for example, he talks about a
book that's out there if you go to I've just called it the name
in front of he's gonna mention it's a it's a book that came out
with the government's all over this because like secrets of the
CIA or the untold story or the we're at war, I can't remember
I'll get the name of it but this guy's probably get
rich because that may be it how to get rich quick.
He's I don't think I think there's a few agents out there
that are doing some writing, but I think for the most part, this
explains why they don't need these guys anymore, because they
just will wiretap everybody. And as he explains, the wiretapping
is not really just a, it's not for the journalists this they
don't give a shit with journalists are doing. They want
to know who they're talking to but you can finish this clip
I became an enemy of the state. I will tell you without
equivocation that the surveillance system that was the
illegal surveillance system that was put into place after 911 and
grew from there and came to a huge head in 2004, when James
Comey remember that incident? And if you follow what's going
on right now with his documentary and Dick Cheney,
very interesting what Cheney is now saying unapologetically, and
also what really was going on, because he kept the truth,
apparently, from his own president regarding very senior
officials and very senior lawyers who are about to resign
over the secret domestic surveillance program. Why
because it was illegal. I will simply tell you that an aspect
of that secret surveillance program called Stellar Wind at
the time, I believe it's gone through some name changes since
and still are when we talked about the the tech in, in San
Francisco, right, who found out about the secret room at the AT
and T building. Yeah, that's that's what we're talking about
here. Right, fantastic.
Included surveilling reporters and journalists. member if
you're wired, if you wired the electronic system, it makes it
very, very difficult, unless you engage in other means to get
information to a reporter or a journalist. And obviously, if
you're concerned about disclosures that they call leaks
that are unauthorized. Wow, you just keep tap on any and all
connections that are made of certain reporters and
journalists. And that net just widens. And so I know for a fact
that that actually took place in secret. This is no different but
on a much larger scale than what happened during the 60s and 70s.
Where there are wiretapping reporters and journalists to
ensure to find out who their sources were, if you know who
the sources are, guess what, I don't really have to go after
journalists directly. I'll just go after the source. So here's
really where it gets extremely troubling for me and most
disturbing, is result of my own case, many, many I had contact
and this is one another paradox of what happened to me. I went
from having gone to one reporter, to having interactions
with any number of reporters on and off the record. Any number
of them have told me privately and it's chilling, chilling that
even long time deep sources and government are increasingly
reluctant to speak even off the record even on deep background
guess why they're afraid
Well, hold on a second. Because that so I think then people with
the real information are afraid to do it. But there's this
culture has been created and all the journalists who are just
presstitute horse, they're all falling forward. Every single
report I hear sources say information so it's all
controlled leaking that they want and that's why we come up
with yeah,
there's no such thing they listen to him as a real such
thing as a genuine leak.
Right. Exactly. Exactly. But we hear nothing but sources my
sources information. Hi. Hi. Hi, officials. It's the it's the
give us the language Yes, of the leak, but it's not. It's
it's a language thing. So you say these things for the public
lapse it up as though there was actually something going on when
he was throwing thing. It's all scripted. Yeah. You can play
part two of this.
Do you want it means become afraid of your own government?
Yes, that's why we created the show everybody, Hey, here we
are.
Because of just the possibility that they may get ticked off, if
you happen to have contact with a reporter. Wow. I never
imagined that that would truly happen on such a large scale in
this country. And yet, some of the very best reporters in this
country, investigative reporters are experiencing precisely that.
They're being frozen out from their own sources because of
fears of the sources have of their own government. risin
himself is part of a criminal case with Jeffrey Sterling.
Because of things that were shared in his book called state
of war. He's caught up a subpoena three times. And the
allegations are he's the only only eyewitness to the crime,
crime.
State of War
data Wars is that says CIA wasn't cleared by the CIA. Some
spoke about the CIA and we talked about the clearance for
these books before. So this guy's been declared an enemy of
the status rising guy. Now here's what I always like to do.
And I think people should ought to do this themselves. You go to
the Amazon site, and you find the reviews of the book. And
then what you want to find are like quasi professionally
written slams.
Wow, did you find one? I'm looking at the Amazon,
a bunch of them, and they're really good. Are there lies of
phony, this is bullcrap. And it's like, it's you go to the
one star reviews and read those. And then you track these people
and, and you can reverse engineer them, you'll find the
same exact people are doing the same thing on other, they're
actually they're really high level stooges. And it's always
fun to kind of find them and see what else they're up to. Because
what they do is they end up giving away stuff that you
should be paying attention to.
So what did you find? What did you find? I'm looking at him
right now. There's
there's other books that if you click on their other reviews,
you'll find other stuff that's been that's out there. And then
when the while that you might want to read?
Interesting. Oh, this is what a great tip, John.
It's a great reverse engineering my friend. Well,
that's really because I'm looking here. I'm like, This is
good. I had to give this book one star since Oh, stars isn't
an option. That love rises. Obviously, making a case against
the current administration just simply doesn't agree with
anything. Does any of these entities stooges say he's a
racist and hates a black man in the White House? Is that in
there? That was possible, it wouldn't surprise me it wouldn't
surprise me. No, you know, what's great about it, and this
is where he's, he's wrong. And he's, he's in an oil he's living
in an old world, is that you don't have to be a reporter with
sources on the inside. Because everything there's so brazen and
blatant about it, they put it on C span, they put it in the
Federal Register, it's all on the internet, all you got to do
is sit in your little studio, in your little shack, in your
underwear, some on your chaise lounge and other others, you
know, in? Well, this is right and then collected. It's easy,
it's easy to see what you're doing. We can't get it like
breaking news. But we can take our time and collect stuff and
look left and right. And you can put it together. It's not that
hard. It's all
in the Podesta joke of it. It's all in the public record. Or
it's all in like listening to this guy tell us some stuff that
we didn't know. Yeah. And it's, I mean, it is out there, it's
just that you can't get it that that that kind of journalism
school way. I mean, you're you're gonna get his press
releases, and that's all they're feeding the public is press
releases. And there's so much of that, that you know, even our
show or anything like it or these other people that tried to
tell these discuss some of these things, were just like just a
small, you know, whatever, those guys screw them because we were
unimportant. You know, what they do is like I didn't we haven't
got any smoking gun, or we can't prove anything. We just, we're
just reading from the public record, and analyze John,
even if we had a smoking gun, we have no way to get into the meme
of the mainstream. And it's also not important anymore because
the people who listen and listen to and produce this program,
you're survivors, you know everyone, other people just
screw this die. You know, the people have to fall have to get
voted off the island
drinks with them once in a while. They get voted off side.
Oh, it's just grow up. It's fine to drone people get a clue. It's
a 21st century what so what if the President wants to kill
someone? That's your problem. And people say that's no
way me, you people, your friends of yours. And you're complaining
about my Austin friends who don't want to build roads? I
mean, come on, I'd rather take
their side like you are with the opposite. That's a big
difference. I wrote the more bikes, just two more clips just
to get their short ones. I just want to play him on classified
information. And then the secrecy laws. Yeah,
this is a very good series. I'm glad you did that. John. Thank
you. Under
what circumstances do you think the classified information
should be leaked?
That's a loaded question. Oh, my God. Did you hear what I said?
Yes. I literally said that's a loaded question when he said it.
Yeah. Oh, my God. Yeah, that's crazy. Next.
Classified is. See what's happening now is the government
is increasing wants to classify as much as possible, because
what that allows them to do is create a larger Ambit, in which
they can charge you for having either retained disclosed or
leaked, classified information. But the answer directly if it
involves war crimes involves wrongdoing. If it was violations
of statute, then yes, there's very little in government that
actually truly ever needs to be classified and always needs to
be placed under constant review,
I want to share a story with you. Just to know how crazy this
is. We were at Meade road, I guess it was, maybe it was
during the hot pockets tour. Mudra is where uncle Don lives.
And I've can't remember what the occasion was anyway. So, you
know, Don is married into the family. So, you know, there,
there were some cousins from his side. And they're, I mean,
surprise, surprise, spooks and all kinds of military stuff. And
one of the girls is, she's 15 or 16. And she is she was at that
point planning to go to New York, and school and to live
with my other cousin, my other cousin's daughter, Caitlin, so
it's now two girls living in New York and you know, that one's
gonna do right for Vanity Fair or whatever, they'll try to get
jobs and living living the American dream mac and cheese
total mac and cheese. And, but her father is I forget, but he's
i He's definitely high up Air Force. His name will come to
it'll come to me in this in a moment. And so she's 16 Right?
And we're sitting at the table and we're about to have meal and
you know, and I'm just making conversation. I'm like, hey, you
know, so tell me you know, what was it like, you know, living
their lives abroad somewhere. Asia I think I don't remember
all this but what stuck out what I do remember is she looked me
1516 years old looks at me and says, I'm sorry, I don't think
you have high enough clearance if you have any clearance for me
to talk to you about these things. Oh gee 16 year old girl
I'm like wow. And first thing I was like, Holy crap, I'm the
only guy here has no clearance. I gotta get me some clearance.
But that it's so as your 16 year old who's been so programmed by
you know, of course her life that she turned to she can say
I'm sorry, I don't believe you have high enough clearance if
any. When you call me out.
Yeah, loser.
She put the L on her forehead like loser, fucking loser and
got no clearance. Have some mac and cheese.
No play Drake on secrecy will be done with him. The secrecy
system and I'm gonna be very very clear here is not to be
used to cover government illegality, wrongdoing, hiding
administrative inefficiency in effectiveness, or, or in fact,
that garden where the government's actually
threatening public safety and health and safety, fraud, waste
and abuse. In my experience, the secrecy system has become so
corrupted, that it's now being used routinely to do precisely
that, under the color and cover of law. And when the color and
cover of law is no longer sufficient, then we'll just make
up the rules. It's one reason that offense experts and my own
criminal case, were so outraged by the government prosecution.
Okay, I'm gonna I've just ordered the book on my Kindle.
Good job, John. Good job. There's nothing in there that
really stands out immediately as Clip of the Day.
No, there's no Clip of the Day in there. Whatever the day is
probably CPAC on rape.
No, no, no. I think don't draw me bro. did better than that.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, just to let
people we have an international audience. And I'd love to, I'd
love to reach out across the ocean hands across the ocean.
And I'd like to play a little bit of the United Kingdom of
Gitmo nation east as government. You know, we always talk about
gun laws here and everything. And so, this is some pre crime.
Oh, let me just give me some pre crime. Where's my pre crime? Is
my pre crime before it's crap. It's pre crime.
I'm sure that the Prime Minister will wish to add his condolences
to the family and friends of Christina Atkins, who was
murdered on a bus to school in my constituency last Thursday
morning. The government has rightly introduced minimum
custodial sentences for people convicted of threatening someone
with a knife. But would the Prime Minister agree with me
that it is time to introduce a legal assumption that people
carrying a knife intend to use it and should attract a prison
sentence so that we can redouble our efforts to rid our
communities of the scourge of knives?
The scourge of knives, so if you have a knife with you, it will
automatically be assumed you are trying to kill someone someone.
Why else would you have a knife my friend
for protection? Well, that is just insane
carry a gun for protection take away any weaponry you can
possibly imagine.
Unarmed disarm the citizenry that's what it's
all disarm them and then you know and then take their money
take
their money from the bank.
Take their arms, a second. Bitcoin all the way covered on
this show. Yeah, that's right. Your privacy, take their money
take everything.
Yeah. What's your problem? Don't you? Don't you get it yet?
Yeah. Don't you get it? To protect you? Or your own guy?
Yeah, that's your friends. Trying to protect you. Okay,
man,
President controlling somebody from time to time, man. We're
about it. Grow up. As always, John, great talking with you.
It's a pleasure. It's a pleasure talking to you, you always come
up with some of the most amazing insights is astonishes me that
this show is so good.
Oh, that's quite an endorsement there from ourselves.
Yes, somebody's got to do it. We're hit Cancel, you didn't win
any awards.
