April 7 2013 Time for your gizmo nation media assassination
episode 502
This is no agenda,
acting as your inspiration in a sea of postmodern poop from the
Travis high tide out in Austin, Texas. Good morning, everybody.
I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where I think I got some of that
poop on my foot. John Vaughn buzzkill
snappy Did you? You step in my poop the postmodern poop. Clip.
Hold on. Oh, you are gone. Where are you? Hello? Yeah. Whoa. I'm
sorry. You just seem to have dropped out there Completely.
Completely. Yeah. All right. You're back.
I do have a I do have a poop clip.
Well, let's kick it off with the poop clip. What do you got from
the big boy?
There's two of them. There's two dog clips on there. Okay. Yeah.
One is the dog smell everything. I think it says something like
that dog's bad breath. The other one
adorable.
Yeah, adorable. Dogs are adorable. But they leak
everything. So short and sweet. Very good.
And do you
have the dog bad breath?
Dog Bad breath is one of the major concerns of dog owners.
What show where you watching
this weekend? TJ I believe this was from Australia. I think I
may have been Canadian. But whatever the case is, is the
funniest commercial I've ever seen. It's about first it talks
about dog licking everything and then they showed dogs first they
started with this great commercial was too long. It's
like an infomercial to play. But so they first they show a dog
licking some woman who likes to be kissed and licked by our dog
resolver face so then they say dogs lick everything and then
they show the dog licking up poop. licking them eating a baby
diaper hmm. And is sniffing another dog and live
by the way I think every every household who has had dogs and
children has had the dog eating the diaper bit it's a classic
it's an absolute classic. It's like honey
and they also love eating cat poop
This is why it's just I can't I can't have a dog anymore. I've
had so many pets in my life but the relationship with the dog
where I now have to take this animal outside walk him and pick
up his poop I can't have this relationship with animals This
is not okay
so anyway the it's about it's the selling a dog bad breath
remedy which is a is a clearly a hit well with me it's something
a dog licks but it's actually a one of these tongue scrapers.
Just 90% of all bad breath is on the tongue. Right? Anyway. You
see what made you reminded me of that whole series?
All righty. Well, then let's actually first the Happy
Birthday belated to you.
Well, happy birthday to you. Yeah, and happy birthday to all
the chips grounded feet in the air subs in the water. And happy
birthday to all of the slaves and human resources in the chat
room norgine The stream.com no agenda chat.net And happy
birthday to Aaron Yoho Aaron Yoho did our art on the previous
episode of no agenda and it's everybody's birthday we're
celebrating with you John hey you know um so it let's see
we're 10 minutes into the into the program time to dis Bitcoin
I mean, we can't be can't start off the show without mentioning
the current price of Bitcoin $161
It just keeps climbing. Well, you
know why? You know what happened? Why this took place
and this is actually where I wanted to go with the opening
for today talking about our our friends in Euro land. We had the
the what's his name his Ollie rain. Who is the what is he he
is the Euro Commissioner for let me say Euro Commissioner for
finance and monetary affairs. He said I should really I should
get this let me get let me get the entire quote for you because
he said something Saturday which just made everyone crazy and I'm
I'm actually quite surprised that Euro land is in such a
titter about it. Here we go. headline from Reuters EU's rain
big depositors could suffer in future bank bailouts under new
law. And here's the quote of course this isn't you know the I
don't have any video. Unfortunately. Cyprus was a
special case but the upcoming directive assumes that investors
and depositors liability will be carried out in case of a bank
restructuring or a wind down rain. The European Economic and
Monetary Affairs Commissioner said in a TV interview with
Finland's national broadcaster ye le so unfortunately, I
couldn't get a copy in time for the show. But I presume Reuters
is quoting him properly. But there is a very clear hierarchy.
He says, At first, the shareholders, then possibly the
unprotected investments and deposits, however, the limit of
100,000 euros is sacred deposit smaller than that are always
safe. And so of course, everyone in in Euro land is like, what,
what? How can that be? And I am so surprised. Because I, part of
my starting even discussing our conversations together, John,
before we even started the show, happened after I read the Lisbon
Treaty. And I and this was ratified by all the countries in
Europe, I know, the Netherlands and France said no, but then,
you know, there was a do over and then you know, everyone,
okay, who will sign it, whatever. But do you think that
they read it? Or it's not? I mean, shall we just review
quickly? Why they shouldn't be surprised?
Yeah, might as well, anybody else's do?
Know. And this is actually relates to the ratification as a
part of the Lisbon Treaty of the European Convention on Human
Rights. And it's five protocols. So this is the law that you all
signed on to but it to me it even goes much further because
this is the the European Convention on Human Rights. I
mean, this isn't John, but this is this is it, right? The human
rights, the rights you have as a human being, and your five
protocols. So let me cite the relevant protocol, Article One,
every natural or legal person is entitled to the peaceful
enjoyment of his possessions. No one shall be deprived of his
possessions, except in the public interest. And subject to
the conditions provided for by law, and by the general
principles of international law. The preceding provisions shall
not however, in any way impair the right there's a double down
on this, of the state to enforce such laws as it deems necessary
to control the use of property in accordance with the general
interest, or to secure the payment of taxes or other
contributions or penalties. So, to me, I think, you know, you
guys signed up for this. And this is your human, right?
Human Right, is to have your money taken from you as needed
in the public interest. Yes. But as needed, could be, you know,
some guy needs a new car, or the parish or whatever they call,
representatives and High Representative, High
Representative my case of Margo,
give me that. Give me your money slave. No. So I decided that
maybe it would be a good idea just to review a few other basic
human rights of the citizenry of the European Union. What do you
think?
Yeah, yes, go over a few things. Apparently, the document right.
and friday?
I do. It's not that hard. It's on the interwebs. And you know,
it's been there for a while, you could have downloaded it before
you went went along with it. So let's take a look at section
one, Article Two, everyone's right to life should be
protected by law. Now, that would seem like a basic human
right, don't you think, John? I would hope so. Well, now,
because in the section two, it says, deprivation of life, shall
not be regarded as inflicted in contravention of this article
when it results from the use of force, which is no more than
absolutely necessary in the following cases, a in defense of
any person from unlawful violence. So let me just make it
clear. What they're saying here is your life is protected by
law, you may not be killed. By law, this is what everyone in
Europe thinks that they have, you know, there's no death
penalty, that there's Oh, we have the right to life. Yes. As
long as you're not doing an engage in unlawful violence or
be in order to effect a lawful arrest or to prevent an escape
of a person lawfully detained. So if the police grab you, and
you run away, they can shoot and kill you legally in Europe. I
mean, you can't even do that here. Can you?
Well, you get into it becomes problematic, but you can kind of
do it
but it's not so blatantly written in our Constitution. I
said, Go ahead, go ahead and there's nothing like that. And
also you can be legally killed in action lawfully taken for the
purpose of quelling a riot or insurrection.
Yeah, yeah, it would make sense.
Doesn't These are human rights? Human rights? This should be you
have the right to live. No one has the right to take your life
away. Well, because you're an uppity slave.
Yeah, no, that's necessary. Yeah.
Article four. Speaking of slavery, no one shall be held in
slavery or servitude. No one shall be required to perform
forced to compulsory labor. Now, for the purposes of this
article, the term forced or compulsory labor shall not
include any work required to be done in the Ordinary, ordinary
course of detention. So they can do the whole prison slave thing
to apparently that we've perfected
you start looking into that you go, man, there's so much money
to be made. Let's just put everyone in prison. Exactly.
Everyone has the right to liberty. Let's see. Oh, yes,
this is this is kind of one of my favorites. Everyone has the
right to liberty and security of person. No one should be
deprived of his liberty, at save in the following cases and in
accordance with a procedure prescribed by law. So, of
course, the lawful detention of a person after conviction by a
competent court, however, you can be deprived of your liberty
under Section II, the lawful detention of persons for the
prevention of the spreading of infectious diseases, quarantine
of persons of unsound mind. Oh, yeah, alcoholics, whoa, or drug
addicts, or vagrants. So if you're an alcoholic, you can be
locked up under European Human Rights Law. I'd forgotten how
good this was.
And then a rat and they get to round up all the bumps. Yeah.
And throw them in jail. Yeah, all right. Vega Vega, where are
you doing? What are you doing? I can't get worked in phases of
mass.
The jail to jail? Yeah, everyone has the respect for his private
and family life, his home and his correspondence? That seems
like a basic human right, don't you think, John? I think that
that's pretty fair.
Yeah, it says handled by the postal laws here in the United
States, which of course they're trying to get rid of.
However, there shall be no interference by public authority
with the exercise of this right accept, such as in accordance
with the law and as necessary in a democratic society in the
interest of national security, public safety of the economic
well being of the country for the prevention of disorder or
crime, for the protection of health or morals, or for the
protection of the rights and freedoms of others. Well, what
right is left?
Nothing. So in other words, in fact, the moral morality clause
fantastic is the one where you say you send somebody a lewd
message saying you might want to get together with them later
after work. Yeah. Open open it that that are those two.
This is the European Human Rights Convention. Human rights
you have no you are you are lower than dogshit. In Europe,
according to your elite Uber lords. Finish up article 10.
Everyone has the right to freedom of expression. This
right shall include freedom to hold opinions and to receive and
impart information and ideas without interference by public
authority. And regardless of frontiers. This article shall
not prevent states from requiring the licensing of
broadcasting, television or cinema enterprises. I found the
cinema enterprises to be quite interesting.
You have to license be a licensed Movie Maker now.
Yeah. Oh, move. Well, it says enterprises so I don't know.
Movie Maker, or I don't know if that's for movie making or movie
displaying?
Well, enterprise, it would include both. It's pretty cool.
Right? And license. Hey, where'd you get that our flex? Is that a
license camera?
Article 15. In time of war or other by
the way. Well, hold on a sec. Further with this. Let's analyze
this a little bit. This could also include somebody taking a
little movie with their camera phone. You're not licensed copy.
You're an unlicensed cinematographer.
Yeah. Yeah. They're making it as a cinema enterprise. You're
making a movie record. Yep. And you probably need a license now.
I mean, I can see them throwing the book
at you. easily but these so you know it's funny because when
when I first read this I was also doing that does show the
station that they burned to the ground.
Oh right because you were on it
cuz I was on it. They burned the show I think the station owner
we've never heard from him again.
You know he disappeared the Gulag somewhere.
So we had one of the the audios still out there probably one of
the ministers I had him on the show, the minister, you're a
member of Dutch parliament, and his name is Alexandre Bechtold.
And he was on the show. And I said, Hey, you know, I found
this document, which is basically the European
Convention on your human rights and the protocols. And I said,
How come? You know, you can be killed if you run away from the
cops? And he's and he said, he said, I had never even heard of
that didn't know. So well. You guys all signed it. And you're
like, all okay with it. And so he went, they have this kind of
like, question time for the prime minister. And he asked the
question, he said, Hey, Adam Curry was on those I'm going to
show with him today. And he asked this question, and I
couldn't answer him, you know, how does this work? Do we have
freedom to live in Europe or not? And that question was never
answered. No, there was no answer on the floor. The Prime
Minister didn't answer like, yes, rotate into consideration.
And then the station burned to the ground. Yeah, there you go.
In time of war, other public emergency threatening the life
of the nation, any high contracting party. I love that
term. So the people who signed this document are high
contracting parties. Any high contracting party may take
measures, derogatory rating from its obligations under this
convention, to the extent strictly required by the
existing agencies of the situation, provided that such
measures are not inconsistent with its other obligations under
international law. I think that means if there's war, this
document means nothing.
Sounds like it means nothing already.
And then we have the, again, I'll just repeat this one, every
natural legal person is entitled to the peaceful enjoyment of his
possessions, no one's will be deprived of his possessions
except in the public interest, and subject to the conditions
provided for by law and by the general principles of
international law. So there you have it, in kittens. So the next
time Miss Mickey asked me, Why are we living here again, I
shall whip out a copy of this. So this is why once we have
like, laws that say you can't, and this is basically a document
that says via you can whenever they feel like it.
But another reason you're living the hours, because apparently
now Google is gonna give you fiber.
You know, there's got to be a catch to this guy, and I've
looked it up. I looked at the terms of service, it seems okay.
It seems like you know it in there. They don't do much more
than, you know, the usual stuff Time Warner does. This has not
been confirmed by Google. But the Austin News is basically
saying it's confirmed. So we'll get gigabit
fiber, gigabit fiber to that house.
So what should I do with it?
I think you should put a server farm up
and not given away electricity here. Well, although I did have
a, I could do like a Raspberry PI server farm. And there you
go. Create your application, send that to me. And I'll host
it, and we can certainly host the show.
I would hope I would use it. I would definitely have backup.
Yeah, yeah. Well, um, it's it's not free, though. It says 70
bucks a month.
So why pay more than that for my Comcast connection? Yeah. And
if you want to Google Fiber with television, yeah. Because it
gives you you know, the whole spectrum of TV and a TV box, and
they give you a tablet and all kinds of gruesome stuff. Yeah.
That's, I think that's 120. Or even just Yeah. And but it's
funny, because people actually congratulating me. Like, Hey,
man, congratulations on your Google Fiber.
One something.
What did I win? Don't get
the opportunity to give Google money. Yeah.
I don't know if it's such a good idea for for Google to have
touch control of us. No, no, no, I'm saying
yeah, no, I agree with that, in theory, but at least Google's
the company if the latest news of course is true at all is
fighting the National Security Letters, which we've talked
about on the show quite a bit. And
we have Yeah, okay. Sure.
Well, here's the story is of course, there was a little
company called Credo mobile. And they got a nationalist Curie
letter and it might well explain what those are. You can look
them up on the Wikipedia. But these are there's been 300,000
of these things issued mostly by the FBI, even though most law
enforcement agencies or Washington can list them. You
get a letter, it says they want information that you have about
someone else, usually, but it could be about yourself. And who
knows? I mean, there's 200,000 of these letters. Who knows what
half of them say? You cannot tell anybody you got the
national security letter or it'd be imprisoned, right. Tell your
attorney. And you can't not do what they tell you to do. This
is totally unconstitutional, and probably illegal in some
fashion. Well, I
can't see how things I can't see how it's not illegal. I mean,
this is quelling your freedom of speech. That's number numero
uno.
So local judge, apparently somebody had the nerve. I think
they just been maybe this has been fought two or three times
they've gotten away with it. But so nobody's really been arrested
for blowing the lid off this thing that we know of that could
be a good Mo, whatever the case is, some little company got
irked about this, I think it would create a mobile. I mean,
that's what it was. But I think is because I don't think they
could comply. I think they were given a request. They just
couldn't do it. They didn't have the right records or who knows
what, right. And then a guy, I'm sure they came back on him. So
you have to just open the letter. Well, we can so they
finally I guess went to a judge and the judge threw the whole
thing out says that they have to must stop immediately. And you
know what? That means? Of course, that means they won't
stop at all right? And so then once this once this case went
through, then Google which apparently I think Google, I
wrote a column on this, I think Google saw these letters and
said, because they must be getting them all the time,
right? And they said, Look, this is a pain in the ass. And, and
we're obviously the number one target for these things. Because
we have the most information. And we don't want to comply. We
think this is crazy. We were wasting our time and money. We
don't you know, I don't think it's because they were thinking
that all we're trying to protect the users, I think is because
they said this is going to be just a nightmare. Over time,
we're going to be doing work for the government. And you know,
I have a little bit of a little different opinion. First of all,
Google is not like some like it's like, it's like a single
entity. I mean, it's a huge, you know, how these companies get
it's a huge unwieldly beast. And there's all kinds of divisions
and departments that never talk to each other and never see each
other have no idea. It's not just the all encompassing Google
anymore. Right. And I'm pretty sure that, you know, I've been
reading a lot about Google as they sell information to
essentially anybody. So if you are South Korea, and you want
information on anything that happened in any other country,
including North Korea, if they have it, they'll sell it to you.
You know, they they've been mining Gmail forever just for
advertisers.
Because Oh, wait, wait, let me try to guess where you're going.
So what you're saying, if the government wants this
information, they can pay for it like any other guy.
Exactly. That's what that's what, that's what I think is the
right way to go.
Well, I think that's a very valid analysis. Yeah. And that's
why they're all like No, no, this is not how it works. We
send you an invoice. You know, you pay you get the info. We'll
also do we do have a handy credit card portal. Seriously,
what
you're probably right I still think but whatever the case is
not any goodwill. My Oh, no, no, no, there's
it we're fight worth fighting
this for the protection of their of their customers.
Please, customers, they're hamsters. You mean? Hamsters
running around keeping the engine running? Stupid idiots. I
know. And of course, I'm sucked into the Google Plus thing.
Because that's where all the all the ham radio operators are on
there and the Homebrew guys and you know, it's it's a simple way
to share ideas, but you know that it's it's, it's gonna come
and bite us all on the ass. It's gonna happen.
Well, you know, I minimize my exposure. I don't use Gmail. I
you know, I really show up on Google Plus once in a while a
movie. So minimizing
the exposure is the exact term. You know, it's funny, because
this morning I tweeted this. You know, Shelly Palmer, right?
Yeah. Okay. Yeah, so Shelly Palmer is I think he works for
NBC. But he writes, he writes very, very high level dumb
technology columns. I mean, I've never met the guy. I think he I
met him. And if he still does stuff for me, VO I don't think
so. But I'm sure he's a nice guy. But sneezing is essentially
an idiot. So you know what I would just offhandedly
categorize as an idiot. So he but I somehow I'm on his mailing
list, and sometimes it doesn't go through the spam filter. I'm
not quite sure why but then it shows up in my inbox. In this
today's was titled Facebook reach data. Do the numbers lie.
I'm like, okay, Shelly Palmer has figured out that Facebook is
scam, I've got to read this. And so he this, it's very long blog
post. And he's discovered through his Facebook fan page,
you know that if he, if you post something with an image, then
his reach is not as big as if it's just a text link and all of
a sudden like, and as I'm, as I'm reading through it, I figure
out, Facebook has perfected the Bozo filter. And I think we need
to remind everybody what the Bozo filter is, you remember the
Bozo filter?
Yeah, the Bozo filter, we used to use it a PC Magazine until I
think they turned over the the comments in the comment section.
It's just where it where it pays off the
it's exactly what it is common sections, bulletin boards.
That's where That's where it works. Right? Explain
it. Well, what happens is that your user, Bill, and you're a
nuisance, and you're on the common thing, and you're just
constantly berating people, you're just a jerk. And they
can't really bounce. And the idea is not to bounce you, it's
to you. They take your IP address and your identification,
usually your user, whatever, login your login details,
because yeah, your details
are specific to you, when you appear, the pages that you see
are not the pages that everyone else sees you, you get to see
what you think is what's going on, including your own comments.
But to everybody else, your comments are long gone. They're
not on their show, they never show it you can type for days
and said and then what's funny to watch the Bozo filter at work
is that is for one thing that bozos who are filtered out very
rarely realize this has happened. But but they do notice
that nobody's ever responding anymore to what they say no
matter what they say. But this so then they start bitching
about
I know, but this is this I don't understand. I mean, what a fan,
if someone would make this today, and by the way, discuss
are idiots for not putting it into their system. Every comment
system should have this this admin feature available. I don't
understand. Because somehow we got into this per this cult of,
you know, moderating, and deleting and No, no. What's
great is you just put you tag someone as a bozo. And when they
go to that page, and they see all the comments, they see their
comment, but no one else sees their comment. It's It is a
beautiful system. And Facebook has now effectively taken that
idea. Now they're doing it to charge people money to be DeBose
owed. That's why they're doing it. But man, I mean, anyone who
has a commenting I would pay money for a commenting system
like that, to be able to put people in a bozo filter. So they
think that they're posting and no one's responding. It's
hilarious.
It is it is quite funny. So how did how's the Facebook one work
is a bozo filter.
Yeah. So Shelly Palmer thinks that, you know, this is a part
of the news feed and all that he thinks just because it shows up
that everyone else sees it. But in effect, you know, we know
that. It's they're calling it filtering or whatever, but it's
really a bozo filter. You post something on Facebook, it shows
up in your timeline, you're like, Okay, now everyone who's
following me will see that but Facebook is just not showing it.
They they they selectively turn you into a bozo.
Of course, if you get a bozo extortion filter, well, if you
pay $7 for a promoted post, then they turn the Bozo filter off.
Wow, see, I think it should be the other way around. But you
know, but okay, so but that's, that's their whole scam now. And
they give you these statistics, John, some of these statistics
that Facebook is using is hilarious. Like, we could have
made this up in one of our meetings. Hold on. So they have
their reach, they have statistics reach, they've got
what used to be called people who saw this. Now they call it
reach, they have, okay, organic reach, viral reach, insights.
These are all statistics. He's all part of the engagement
metrics. Gosling is
on Facebook. Yeah, this is Facebook. So you could you know,
have a close circle of friends that you could communicate with,
about what happened in the family last week. So you don't
have to send out those family newsletters.
No, because even then your family doesn't see it because
you're in the Bozo filter for your family. Anyway, let me see
what other tweet news I can use. Sir, before you go on the show
today.
I'm not going on today. Oh, good. Okay, well then the cert
anything.
I don't get true. However, Michigan is in the Final Four
and finals.
Oh, you've been keeping up? Yeah, I think the team can't
shoot a free throw it all I mean, they should have lost that
last game that well, if they if they win the game against
Louisville which of course has the one good player broke his
leg and the compound or come whatever yeah we took care of
him didn't we? The bone came out of his way and we took care that
rolling around it was horrible but they CBS won't even play it
but what happened for anyone wants to know the guy breaks
snaps his leg the bone comes out of his mouth and starts rolling
around making a bloody trail all over the place. dogs come out
and grabs the bone and it has to be fought with okay John, okay,
okay, okay, okay,
this is not true.
I just did I'm describing it because people will never get to
see it because they won't show it hey
what is wiki PDSA? Is your age.
Like a piano? No, I've never looked at my own Wikipedia
entry.
I have a reason for asking him to vorak Wiki pedia cuz I think
you can make some money.
Can I make money? Not gonna make much on this show from the looks
at today's?
Here's how an actress suing Seattle based website Internet
Movie Database. Okay,
it says you were born April 5 1952. Your ages 60
heads to trial on Monday. hong huang accuses IMBD of improperly
revealing her age. The 40 year old claim she lost out on work
opportunities because of Hollywood stigma against older
actresses.
I'm telling you as an older actress, I think there's money
in it for you.
You might be right. I'm only really 57
I'm telling you. This is a stigma you can sue Jimmy Wales.
This is an outrage. Yeah, you're right. Let's let's thank our
producer.
Yeah, you have a producer today. I'm actually stunned that we
have a producer. Since it's my birthday show and you know,
everyone chimed in with nothing. net net che have
an eye No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It's Anatolian a che have.
That's right. Well, do you want to hear how you should? What
where's he from?
That's another good question.
I'll give it to you. Here's the here's the pronunciation. Hello.
My name is new chave. oboist Russia.
Yeah, you said all that.
I didn't say the last part. But I think he covered it. Well,
yeah. Anyway, Anatoly and he so he becomes he says the night
Yes. Happy birthday, John. Wikipedia says you're 61 But
that's not true. Because I would it says it says you're 60 No,
no, if if I was I was 52 to 2013 is 61. I am reading
the wiki pedia page, go to the wiki PMP it's not updated
to my birthday, which was which was Thursday or Friday.
I understand. But then this isn't so okay. This is in the
little box right the little How lame is wiki pedia? Yeah,
they should have they should have an algorithm for that.
Yeah,
it's a it's not a hard. It's a simple
line of JavaScript. I mean, they should be able to do that
without Oh, I gotta go in and change it by hand every year.
Yes. So I'm gonna change it right now. Yes, six one. Yeah,
of course. But you know, that's because of the show. Could
someone please go in there and make his age 12
probably could, but someone would correct it out and people
change. Anyway, these things have 628 So I don't know.
I think it's 62 and the eight is part of his emoticon. Oh, so
this makes you 8989 for not getting that oh oh emoticon.
I didn't know the emoticon guy was wearing glasses. Anyway,
that's it.
Yeah, that's you know, this is this is rather disappointing.
Not not just for the show. But for for love for you.
Yeah, no, I gotta get zero. You got no love. You got no love.
Oh, nobody cares.
And I This made me think
to go look at it. We're gonna see it later. 123 people?
Yeah, that's it. Yeah, yeah, pretty much. So this kind of
made me think momentarily, that maybe there's a kind of a new
kind of business we can start, which we would use for ourselves
primarily, but maybe other people would want to use the
system. I think we should have is it worth it Kickstarter? You
know? So we, before we start the show, because I worked hard and
I went back and I got all of the I went back into the files, the
archives, my marked up versions of the European Convention on
Human Rights. I mean, it's something that I don't know, you
know, big news people who make a lot of money don't do.
Oh, you mean like let's see who makes it bandsaw I think makes
12,000 $12 million a year. Yeah. Well,
I don't know if he's more an entertainment guy. Diane Sawyer.
You know, she's, she makes some bank. You know, I may not okay,
maybe we're not as MILFy as she is, but you know I could get
drunk and go on camera Come on. Anyway so entertaining. Yeah.
There's there's a couple of you know, I worked hard. I worked a
lot yesterday last night, always working throughout the week. And
then you know, when the spreadsheet comes in in the
morning, and for some reason JC sent an early which is always a
bad sign when the spreadsheets shows up at like it at eight
o'clock. I'm like, oh, okay, I'm afraid to open it. And my heart
sinks. downlink. So either a we suck and no one like the last
show the last
show was no good as
possible. It's possible that we did try a new artist
I don't think the artist is to blame. I'll blame blaming the
artists I blame the artists and the artists or artists that
happens artists this fall
Yeah, but of course I always look at myself and go well maybe
we just sucked I don't know I mean, I was off you know, I got
like a weird phone calls all kinds of stuff that we you know,
I don't know I I blame myself first and foremost. And then
thinking you know, how do I get the motivate the only motivation
I have every week in week out to do this just because I want to
talk with you. That's pretty much it. Oh, I was I was afraid
this was not a mutual thing. When I'm like we should have a
system where you know, we check in like we'll say well it's not
worth it. And then people can donate at on the spot.
Had the show was more entertaining things. I have the
book which I picked up when I was in high school and I kept it
all these years my income the Confucius say no no something
Chinatown for 50 cents as a small little book as ebook
because I might make more money doing that. And it says bold and
witty bedroom bar room and smoker Dipsy doodles for the
from the inimitable Confucius. And Confucius say number 20 to
be big success chorus girl require a tireless effort
Well, I'm slimming down I'm doing my best. Don't do any more
of those. Okay. We already talked about those there.
There's only a couple of really good ones,
but you want to read it? Yeah. Some of these since they're puns
are actually many of them are our visual puzzles. You reading
them out loud isn't as funny as reading them. Confucius say
number 39 soon as girl use horse sense. Every buddy ride her.
Okay? I'll give you a Chinese in the morning. Enough, enough
enough. I've saved that's what people want. We can there's
plenty of or we
could just say like okay, we're going to stop right now and then
we'll just wait wait, there's 1000 people in the chat room
when you get a hold your breath.
It was gonna be a wait and see if any more comes in. We'll let
you slide for this show. You know
I've been 500 Fatigue is when I'm blaming it on
Yeah, possibly. That means you mean fatigue as in everyone shot
their wad I mean it could not come on a worse time we have
eight days until taxes do here and that's the week when
everyone's
thing by the way that a lot of people that are also having to
deal with their taxes oh
no no I disagree or we have a very low no I disagree and let
me tell you why. When we were looking for a car for Miss
Mickey with all the second hand car guys which was another thing
that kind of hurt you know I had to get her and not a new but a
new used vehicle. I was like how's business that like well
it's kind of slow right now but you know it was really it was
really good about three weeks ago so this is now a month ago
because everyone got their their tax return checks which I think
is because people go to h&r block and they get into the scam
or h&r block takes I don't know 5% And then they give you a
check if you would check in and so they
now there's all kinds of scammers cropping up doing the
same thing and then leaving town afterwards. We can do better
than h&r block and it just phoning up a tax return Senate
and give you a check for some amount of money
they receive but they have to wait for the check they received
from the government though.
I forget how it is. Yeah, right.
Meanwhile and then they close up shop and leave yeah yeah
so I've been listening to Australian TV are very good and
so I have a just listening or
do watch is just I watched I watch I watch
so I was watching the today's show weekend and they had they
brought in they do you know the way we do the same thing here
and as surely it's actually do it worse, where we're always
plugging the entertainment shows on the network on the news. Of
course new movie coming out just top news, everything all hell's
breaking loose, but they're gonna tell us about a movie was
so they did a thing on Australian TV where they
interviewed is one of the syndicated shows over there,
which is played here. I think it's on I know what one of the
channels, but they show it on ABC and Australia. Doomsday
Preppers Yes, of course. So they, they take it a step
further, they actually had one of the preppers on Oh, with a
long interview with a whole bunch of frightening prospects.
And I thought that thing was I honestly believed it was. This
prepper is a government spokesman I believe. I mean,
he's just seems like a plant. And he's warning the Boston is
about you know, the idea is to scare people to death. But
listen to this particular report.
He's the average fan, the man who's convinced the world is
going to be terrorized by a biological attack. So here's
getting ready. His name is Braxton Southwick. He's what's
called a doomsday prepper. And I spoke to him from Salt Lake City
a little earlier. Braxton Good morning, we made it through
another night here in Australia. Not many people are prepared,
are they but you are? What are you preparing for? And how?
Well the end of the world basically everything that comes
with it. But as you could see in the TV show, is a biological
terrorist attack that I'm preparing my family for?
What kind of things are you expecting a new strain of
smallpox? Is it?
Yeah, it is smallpox. But it's not the natural strand that we
have here in the world, the who the World Health Organization
eradicated that 1979 What I'm more worried about is biological
weapons grade smallpox, which several countries all over the
world have, including America, Libya, Syria, Iran are all in
the biological weapons game. And Smallpox is one of the most
abundant biological weapon, all it is is a liquid, a clear
liquid that can be easily dropped anywhere. And people
transfer it from one person to another. So in real reality,
it's like a nuclear weapon. It's just saying,
Well, I guess it's better to be prepared than not be prepared.
But what are the chances do you think that this could happen to
you in your suburb in your town?
I'm preparing because I think it will inevitably happen. We're
here in America, we've had a biological terrorist attack of
anthrax in 2001. And if a terrorist organization want to
get their hands on a, let's say, a nuclear weapon, it's almost
impossible for them to get it, get it into America and release
it, but a biological weapon, which all these countries have,
and let's just say Libya, which there is no real leader over
there, right now. They have smallpox and for them to get to
give a terrorist organization just a jar full and get it over
to America is a high possibility. So I'm prepared.
But he wasn't scaring the Australians. He was talking
about America.
Like, you seem like some straight the whole thing seemed
very rehearsed. Yeah, yeah, he got the dates and times he's got
a thing. You know, you mentioned Libya, having no ruler in Libya
has got to do it. But it just seemed like some sort of planted
or coded information that was being fed into the system. But
you're not just trying to figure out what, you know what, maybe
it's just a yeah, maybe the show is just a bunch of but but, but
it seemed a little unusual.
What I find is that the smallpox threat doesn't work well with
the American public. We don't we don't understand what it you
know, you know, sarin gas, we kind of like that one. Anthrax
is really the one that we respond to. We just don't
respond well to the smallpox gag if, as it were, you know what I
mean?
No, I think you're right, but I don't see that the aliens are
there we kind of left and up their sleeves.
And we'd like to nucleus and by the way, I'm all for it. I think
I'd much rather you know everyone dies for smallpox you
know, not everyone will die of course, the buildings will still
be there, you know, ruin everything.
But they just because the donations are down. You don't
have to be like this.
By the way. Speaking of scaring the slaves. Remember, I played
the giant voice system for you from chat from Chapel Hill, I
want to revisit that because our producer from there, the shield
from Chapel Hill, says, Hey, Adam, thank you very much for
playing my clip on the show and naming the episode after it.
What a honnor. I do have a couple of points of
clarification about the clip and about Chapel Hill itself, you
made the assumption that I was in the military and that this
took place in a military base. If that was the case, the clip
would be unusual and unsettling, but the truth is far more
creepy. I work at the University, Carolina at Chapel,
North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and it's a small town that
consists of the school, a main street, and not much else other
than being the college basketball mecca of the country.
I have no idea when or why the giant voice system was
installed, but they tested once or twice a year. The first time
I heard it was about a year ago was at lunchtime and I was on a
run around campus it's very spooky have expected them to
start playing the duck and cover song. So this resume normal
activity order wasn't being directed to train soldiers but
telling the citizens you will obey.
That's interesting.
So let's play it again. Just so we can hear what it is. So this
is going on in North Carolina Chapel Hill in these United
States of America, not in the military situation, but just a
giant voice system telling the slaves what to do
all of their resumes
resume normal activity
so while they have these prepper shows that they're trying to
scare people, the actual scary stuff is happening.
They have one of the this I don't know how he's gonna give
us the date of the of the construction of this thing.
Well, he doesn't have one of these in San Francisco. In fact,
they have one in the vicinity of the MVNO offices. Yeah. And
every Friday they firstly have an alarm and all clear alarm,
which is from the Civil Defense days because we're on the coast.
And so the honked this thing at on Fridays are one of the days
of the week. And work
makes it doesn't have the voice
No, no, the voice does come on once in a while. I've never
heard the word of voice. I've heard a voice not I mean, I
can't say you ever hear it all the time. But I have heard a
voice and I think there's a big giant, a big giant voice in San
Francisco. I have to look into it now. I'll find somebody who
will go I don't know even who runs this thing because the
Civil Defense Group is long gone. So this thing could be on
some auto pilot. nobody even cares, I suspect but this is the
electric bill from now but here's my civil defense.
Here's what's cool. So I think that we can just set up our own
and just yeah, we can just do these just start off like this
right because people are so stupid and so trained now I can
climb a great idea I can climb up on my roof we have a widow's
walk is there's no you have to go through one of those attic
ladders but it's cool up there. And and I can see the city of
Austin so you know with a with a good directional speaker system
I could get pretty far. And literally we'll just have our
own giant and you start off with you know, all clear all clear
resume normal activity. You do that once a month, once a month
and then you start going like buy seeds by heirloom seeds and
they start giving out URL of website addresses you know, we
can do all kinds of stuff and people will do it. I'm telling
you we should be packet This is another product write this down.
Giant voice systems. You can you can get all the pieces you need
at RadioShack. Yeah, no you can. It's a good idea man. We should
consider it
personal giant voice systems
PGV s personal giant voices. And then we can just do like your
mac and cheese. We do all kinds of well, in fact, oh okay, I've
got it. I have is done. I've got it. This is the ultimate. We
need to create a little box okay, and the only thing you
have to do is you connect this box to a Wi Fi and a Radio Shack
amp and a speaker and it has a Raspberry Pi in it. And it talks
to the personal giant voice system network which you and I
program and we just we do drop in our voice tracks, with stuff
with messages. And then so anyone can just set this up that
connected to a Wi Fi convenient Wi Fi, the little box brings in
the new thing. We can even trigger it, right? So we can
say, Oh, time to trigger off the giant voice system. And we just
inhale for the first six months, we're just doing these tests
these normal tests, which everyone apparently thinks is
okay that they don't question it. And then we start doing it
and then we start messing with people. I
think you could put these like if you put a four horn system,
these are horns. Yes. We get the distance horns. Yes. So we put a
four horn system on top of a telephone pole. Yep. With a
bunch of phony baloney, artificial looking, you know,
has to be gray has to look gray. Oh, no. It has to look kind of
Yeah, it's got to look. Pedestrian military ish.
I think I'm just go ahead. I'm looking at the Radio Shack
website. Yeah, you got it. They've got him.
Yeah, you put it up there with him. He asked me for directions.
So it's just the big giant voice. And you put some some
numbers in yo stencil some stuff on so it looks like is
efficiently put on there. Yeah, do not touch here it is do not
disconnect.
100 100 Watt pa indoor outdoor power horn speaker from
RadioShack is exactly it. Look, it looks the business. It's 4299
as a web exclusive 100 watts.
And you're watching a horror, we'll take a give you a lot of
that's the end
and they just hook up a Raspberry Pi to it. And we'll
we'll we'll we'll make the software. It's just an RSS
aggregator just bringing in a podcast essentially. And playing
it.
Yeah, this is good.
This is a good idea.
I think so. And then it says Do not remove under penalty of law.
Okay, someone has to make this kit. We'll do the audio for it.
And then we should just start this. This could be phenomenal.
People would so believe this? Totally. I mean, seriously,
we'll just start it. Let's start it off. Okay. It's like
attention citizens. All clear. resume normal activity. resume
normal activity? In the morning. Yeah, in the morning. That's how
we start. That's how we start. We ease we ease into it. I tell
you, it can be awesome. All right. Well, it's just a
thought. I mean, you know, if someone wants to help us make
this, we'll do the audio for it for sure.
Yeah, no, it sounds like a winner. We can always see it. So
I was again, floating around the sling boxes around the world.
And I found a good day. Good. Interesting clip. This is Do you
remember when they're going to cut back on? Budgets here in the
United States, the Ryan Seacrest station. And our approach to
Obama comes out I wish I could dig this clip. But Barack Obama
comes out and he has all this laundry list of bad things
that's going to happen. Criminals will be released into
the wild Yes, because of this, right?
Because of the seat Ryan secret station, you may see criminals
on the streets Do not be alarmed all as well. resumed activity.
So, so I thought it was interesting when I heard this,
which is the Canadians, you know, so in other words, this is
the way they induce fear in the public is we're going to be
crawling with criminals are going to be outside robbing.
Yeah, some of Newfoundland do more set up I'm just gonna set
this up and say the Canadians have a slightly different
approach to scaring the public's
top lawyers even its own crown attorneys say the provinces
latest budget goes at least one cut too far. They're warning the
government that its plan to fight the deficit is really a
recipe for wrongful convictions.
So their approach is
we're gonna put you in jail. Yeah. That's better act. It took
me a second to think about it though.
Yeah, well, that was a long report and they were talking
about how they were trying to beat them because there's a
bunch of wrongfully convicted people in Canada apparently that
have gotten out recently and they're also there was a guy
there also stoic Canadian stoic. Oh yes i i was terrible. I was
stuck in prison for 10 years yeah and my family I see that
doesn't work here because everyone kind of hopes it
happens to them because they know that when you finally get
out and you're proven and ends Bonanza book deals movies money
to people are at this kind of like a last resort American
dream here it's like please man convict me wrong. And then we
can get some DNA and prove it was a you know some new DNA
study and then I'll get out and then in a bonanza No, no, no,
that's not gonna work here but
anyway so the Canadian but I just thought it was so it
contrast the you know that we're gonna let the prisoners go
they're gonna put them up jail. Well, unfairly by the way,
so when it comes to the budget you know, the way the the
President and the administration think of him in themselves is
quite telling. This is spokes whole Kearney, who speaks on
behalf of El Presidente here. And of course, the President is
now threatening that he is sending a budget. We haven't
seen it yet. He is sending a complete budget to Congress, I
believe, on Tuesday or Wednesday. And of course, the
press corps wants to know all about it
for the budget for those who are asking you to wait for the
budget for those. But what I will say is that this is not the
President's idealized budget is not what he would do if he were
king. Or if only
you were king, you would do very differently.
What would he do if you were king,
but he said he went, he goes over it so easily, not the
President's idealized budget is not what he would do if he were
king, or if only people who supported his proposals were in
Congress,
which is the ideal situation, apparently. Isn't that weird?
How we just kind of like very strange. So the President had
his weekly show. You know, here we go. Yeah, no, I have to say.
He came out with it. And let's, let's see how we how do you
think he starts? His his show?
Pile? Everybody? Hi, everybody.
Hi, everybody. Our top priority as a nation. Oh, and my top
priority as President? Oh, what is that? Let me see what is his
top priority must be doing everything we can to reignite
the engine of America. No, no, no, no, I'm sorry, Mr.
President, that is not your top priority. Your top priority is
to protect and uphold the Constitution of the United
States of America. Nothing else, a rising, thriving middle class.
That's our North Star that must drive every decision that we
make the whole Northstar thing. I don't get that. Where's that
coming from?
I have no idea.
Maybe we should just remind him because he I know he listens.
Here's what you are swore I, Barack Hussein Obama, do
solemnly swear
That I will faithfully execute, that I will faithfully execute
the office of President of the United States, the office of
President of the United States, and will to the best of my
ability and will to the best of my ability,
ensure the middle class has a fair shot and everybody pays
their fair share,
preserve, protect, and defend, preserve,
protect and defend the middle class, the United States of
America like it's our guiding North Star, the Constitution of
the United States Constitution of the United States. So help
you God. So help me God. Congratulations, Mr. President.
Chief Justice. Hi, everybody. So then he goes on, and there's a
new, there's a new meme. And I want to draw your attention to
this. Now, this common sense thing is getting a little out of
control. You can Google. com. So there's this sign, which is a
photoshop job, I'm pretty convinced of it. And it looks
like a billboard. And the billboard read reads, what this
country needs is a department of common sense. And I'm getting
tweets from people you know how to do it. Someone says, hey, my,
my buddy, or I know this guy. And it's not true, they'd heard
the story from someone else as bullcrap. So now that I get
tweets like that, I saw this sign in New York, you know, and
you Google the sign. And it's like, it's in Kansas, and
Wisconsin, Oklahoma. And I think it's just a Photoshop there is
no sign that says what this country needs a department of
common sense, but it is the mean of replacing constitution, the
Constitution of the United States with common sense laws.
So it wouldn't surprise me if one day we have a department of
of common sense and here is a little addition to the
President's a common sense mean in his little show without
undermining the rock solid guarantee at its core, and will
enact common sense tax reform that includes closing wasteful
tax loopholes for the wealthy and well connected the wealthy
and the well connected. This is new. What do you think it means?
Well, he said this before or that's an old clip.
No, this is this is from Saturday. Yes. Saturday morning.
Okay. Well, he said it before because I I remember clipping in
myself, but this was weeks ago. He has been throwing in this
well connected meme. I think maybe it was it may have even
been at the at the convention, whatever the case is, I've been
trying to figure it out myself. I think what it means is, you
know just more rich Democrats and our average Republican so
I'm not I'm actually not sure what he's talking about. And
it's common sense thing is getting annoying looking at the
sign now. You see swans in Oklahoma? Yeah,
but but there's they're all over the place with the same picture.
Yeah, right. And picture this thing. Yeah. Is it is a good
photoshop job. I'm sure of it. Yeah. So there's a logo with
this thing is a lot light moments.
Yeah, I've tried. I did a lot of searching. I could not trace the
origin of it. But there's money going into this and it's right
now. Just online and it's just photoshopped job. But this
common sense thing. So 60 minutes tonight, and I'm not
even I pulled no clips from it. But they have a bunch of act. I
mean parents from Sandy Hook. And they're literally just like
we need common sense laws.
Yeah, no, I saw that too. It was like that kind of disturbing and
but
were all the parents who were usually onboard these a new new
people. And there's like an old guys like 80 And he's sitting
he's there too. I mean, yeah, this anyway, I promised not to
do too much on that. But there's some other stuff going on I
think that the the Obama is gay rumors are about to crop up
again, there's a lot of pre emptive stuff going on a lot of
pre emptive stuff
do you think that might account for?
Hold on? Hold on? Yes. First, let's hear the First Lady. You
probably heard this, John. But a lot of people around the world
may not have looking
at new models of getting farmers markets to, you know, create
buses and drive into communities that are underserved. So we have
to deal with the question of access. And believe me as a busy
single mother, or I shouldn't say single as a busy mother,
sometimes, you know, when you get the husband is present. So I
think first of all, for the date, if you hadn't heard this
one. Oh,
okay, well, I'll take it. Well, you might have to play it again.
But I'll grab it. So she's a busy single mother. Now. This is
explained away by everyone. Oh, she thought it was just a
mistake. She corrected herself. But you know, I'm not gonna I'm
not gonna give it to her that easy. I think she's pissed.
Because the President has been on these men only buddy's
golfing weekends with Reggie Love and Tiger Woods. And
then he's hanging out with a girl with a beauty queen.
Right? Well, that's pre emptive. And then, of course, this whole
story it
makes have called President Obama's administration, a boys
club dominated by men. But now the president is getting some
flack for something he said in California yesterday. That
happened at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser,
which was close to cameras. While he praised California's
Attorney General Kamala Harris, the President called her quote,
by far the best looking Attorney General in the country, there
was a lot of backlash. online social media, Twitter, I think
we all know sometimes you can't put the toothpaste back in the
UK, things just come out of your mouth sometimes. Even when you
hit the rewind, he did.
Great. She was not smart. She was I mean, come on.
Yeah, he was trying to compliment her. But maybe it was
not the right thing to say.
So so a couple things about this instance, the first of all, I
think, and there's no audio of this either, unfortunately, but
I reading the transcript he says she's by far the best looking at
her after he does talk about how great she is. And you know, of
course, he should have added that she completely stole
California for him is ripped off everyone's campaign finances is
a total total evil woman. They said no, she's the best looking
Attorney General.
She was one of the worst DBAs at San Francisco have ever seen.
And then people start to groan apparently, and he goes, come
on, you know what I mean? You all know it's true. So he's
really trying to make this happen. So a couple of things.
First of all, we discussed this on the show. I've never I've
refused to go along with the Cultural Marxism inside
corporate America where you have to take training because you
can't say to a female employee, forget colleague, you can't say
to a female employee, Oh, you look pretty today. You can get
sued for that. Yes, suit for for millions and millions. And I've
always refused. I said, I you know, I'd rather leave the
company, or have the company die than have to adhere to that. I
feel I should be able to say to anyone male or female. You look
pretty, you look handsome, you look dapper. You look great.
Also, you look like shit. I should also be able to say that
as a human being to another or maybe as someone who I want to
represent my company, whatever it is, I should have that
opportunity. And this is how Hooters by the way got ruined
Define American institution. Hooters was a great idea. And
then they had to put women in there with no boobs. They roared
guys, they ruined the business ruined it. Okay, fine. It's
fine. If you don't like it, then don't go there. Don't do
business with the company. So on one hand, I'm okay. But now to
have these these eight holes, who of course, you know, are so
afraid to go against the president, the Almighty
president say well, you know, that's really not in line with
our corporate political correctness bull crap that we
have to live by. Because any other CEO would have been raked
over the coals and sued. They let them get away with it. And I
think it's only because they they know that the globe or the
Enquirer or some credible rag is coming out with a big gay story.
And I think Michelle That was kind of, like, you know, she's,
I think that was really, really smart, which he did if it was
indeed on purpose was to put him on notice, but also really point
out that, you know, she is his wife. You know, it's like it's a
multiple layer thing.
They're not just bullcrap off. Yeah,
exactly. Exactly. put
her foot down.
She stomped, she started big time.
Yeah, I agree. I think I think that analysis is correct. Yeah.
So I didn't think of the possibility of some gay thing.
But this has always been bubbling under the surface. I
mean, the stories that go way back, and
the problem is, is that all the guys who are rumored to have had
relations with them wind up dead?
Right. It's up to one guy, Larry Sinclair. Larry has managed to
live through
Yeah, but he's, you know, they've cracked pot at him. He's
like, No one believes Larry anymore. Right? I don't know.
They've just completely. You know, there's the Chicago
bathhouse. There's Rahm Emanuel. Charlie Gibson is rumored to
have had sex with Barack Obama, though really? Yeah.
Well, there's some you won't hear on any other show. No.
I like this show.
This is why you show us why you show up for work.
It's like, oh, there's a good one.
You didn't know that. Oh, I thought that was that was kind
of like it's like a, I don't know. I travel in interesting
circles.
Yeah, us traveling showbusiness gay circles who know
all this stuff, if you know, but it's also it's like, it's
totally okay. When like, the George Clooney
thing is still, you know, I bring that up as somebody that
they just the jaw hits the ground, and then they just
refuse to believe it.
That's the the George Clooney could be gay. Or that he is gay.
Yeah, yeah, we pretty much are sure he is. Yeah. And
the public doesn't, you know, and Hollywood, of course,
doesn't want this kind of thing becoming a meme. So he's always
got a girlfriend and whatever. But it was always to the
President thinks the same thing. It's been suppressed.
But you know, in popular culture, though, it's so
interesting how, you know, so the Democrats have, of course,
the Democrats are the true racists, people who are really,
really all out on board in the Democrat party. I'm sorry, they
really are truly the the racist. We were at a party, an art
party, and I'll never get invited again.
Come on, tell the story. They're not going to be listening. Well,
it was with very good friends of ours. Who who I like very much
in
the Democrats. They're the Obama boss. Yeah, exactly. Like Obama.
No, it's it's a little beyond that. It's a little, but I but I
call them out on it. You know, and I just say, yeah, and they I
think I think I am used them.
For sure. Yeah, you're the wacky uncle. Don't want to be the old
old, old Republican conservative uncle. Tower seven.
I don't I don't, I do not bring out trade center seven. But I
did, I did get to lay my North Korea wrap on them the whole
Disney thing and Rodman that had people that literally their jaws
were just like, he's like BA, when they're like, they're like
laughing
beyond the most superficial aspects of the American news
media. They don't even go to the extent that listening to me,
even if you're on the border, they won't watch the Canadian
news amid the national had a report recently on the crazy on
some crazy crap going on in Russia. It was just at that
we've actually talked about but we didn't have any of this part
of the story. And it was just riveting. But no, no.
Well, exactly. And you know, and they'll usually it starts like
this. Well, you know, there's probably on Fox News or
something. And then I say, you know, Fox News is run by the
Democrats. And that's usually how it that's usually my opening
line. And they'll be like, What, are you insane, and then I can
usually go in without having to explain it all. I can steer it
away pretty quickly into something else, but the big one
this weekend was North Korea. And of course, I have a little
credibility because I can say, well, you know, my uncle Donald,
Greg, that's how I start, you know, he was ambassador to South
Korea, and he thinks, you know, they really just want they don't
want this armistice bull crap. They've just wanted to be part
of the big boys game. And, you know, please, you know, just let
us be a part of it, and don't tell us what to do. And oh, by
the way, you know, we were the ones that drew the line in the
38th parallel, and that's pretty much our fault. And so I had
that credibility to start with, but then I'll say now, oh,
usually, it's like we, I don't think we need Dennis Rodman
representing. Like, well, you clearly misunderstand the great
American system of capitalism. Then I explained how Disney is
going to open up a theme park, North Korea. Did Disneyland
North Korea and it makes them drink John It literally makes
them go back to the Bar for another drink just to come back
and listen to
MIDI Show.
I shouldn't be charging. I shouldn't you know, I can do
this. You know they had so at this is one of these parties
where I think Mickey invented this original concept in 1991.
At the supper club, you have people dressed up in these
complete body suits that are all that we know head to toe one
piece. So they have no facial features. No, no nothing but you
see there. Some are women you see their breasts and some are
men, you see a huge dick hanging down there. And they slither
around throughout the whole party. Have you ever seen this?
Yeah. So I don't want to do one of her parties. Exactly what but
what is the
so they said they had like 20 of these at this party? The whole
like
walking art.
Exactly. So they get paid.
I'm sure they better
why should I get paid for for doing my
get paid for being the crackpot Oh, as Adam gonna be there
because He's entertaining his character.
So this I'm not gonna lie sure how we got here. But anyway, so.
So this the party, as if it's a fundraiser foundation, you know,
we got invited and have to spend a dime, which is good. There
were some art you could bid on. Right. But this is at a very,
very famous house in Austin. And it's an architectural marvel
took eight years to build. And I was talking to the owner who's,
you know, probably five years younger than I am. And, you
know, say, Oh, well, you know, I realized that this was a very
important house, and I'm like, I'm in the wrong place. And the
Obamas have stayed there. And this is, and so here's, here's
what I noticed, by the way, fantastic house beautiful work
of art, I mean, and lovely that these people are doing things
for the arts, etc. But um, but the the whole vibe of this
party, is I can only imagine this is what a really high cost
democratic fundraiser is like, where everyone is afraid to say
anything. No one is really, they're all talking complete
bull crap that everyone's sucking up to everybody just in
case that person might be rich, famous, important, or a
political. It's, it's, it's like, it's really tense. You
want I mean, if you've ever been to one of these,
not that, not that. I've been to a lot of events where there's
some tension, but I, but not to a politically based one where
there's that kind of tension. I just don't go to those. Well,
and again, you know, it's Austin, you know, it's this is a
relatively small town, and, and I really, I really love our
friends, you know, and I fight with them all the time. You
know, they know they listen, they've heard the show, but they
don't listen anymore. But they've heard the show. You
know, and I think they know that we have something we have a good
relationship. But yeah, when I see this, I'm like, Oh, my God.
And it's just, you know, I literally had to make he's like,
we've got to find like some group of Republicans, just to
balance that out. I just gotta go stand in the middle of like
George Bush, just to just to wash it off a little bit.
And you know what? It'll be just as bad or worse. I know. I know.
I know. I know. That's the political scene. It's really
creepy. Well, that's
kind of what I was like, Oh, I was reminded because in the
Netherlands, you know, just even smaller country. You know, I was
involved. You know, I met a lot of politicians. I was at a
couple of parties, like, Oh, my God, this is horrible. You
people are lame. But this is just, I don't know, man. It's
not me. I just don't how can these people be happy? I don't
think they are?
Probably not. In fact, especially if they won't. I
think that shorts a lot. I've said this before, I've always
believed that there is a short circuit that occurs with this
kind of rigid thinking, that lapse, you lap everything up.
And they're they're all contradictions, which is really
the problem that I have is all the contradictions that are
involved with the with whatever it is, you're lapping up, and
you just suck it in and you just take it as gospel when it
doesn't really work as such, because it's contradictory,
right? And I think it's unhealthy.
Oh, no, I think it's very unhealthy. I think people die
from this. I think you'd get cancer from living like this.
And just show you when you know, this is what I learned what my
daughter always says about me because I've never seen my dad
so unhappy is when he had money. He's so happy so much happier
now that he's living he's taken a vow of poverty apparently
living in Austin but he seems pretty happy and it's true. I'm
much much happier. I can't imagine I'm gonna be late for
the jet I mean, I'm remember this John, we've seen We've we
know these people. I was one of these people where you were you
like have a lot of money and a lot of people do things for you.
And your life is frantic and it's it's humorous. And people
find you humorous because you Oh, well, yeah. Oh, I'm sorry, I
have to jet off to central pay.
And you know, you know, here's what gets me about these guys.
And I know you're right. I know a lot of I know literally
people, millionaires any is anybody? Right? And they are so
frazzled and busy. Yeah. That is like, holy crap. I mean, can't
you do you know, you know, it's like, you have to make you want
to go see him for lunch. They're like a friend of yours forever.
Yeah. And you have to talk to their handler. And then it's
months out. Because every single day, they got to lunch with
someone important. And they got to do this. And they got to do
that. And they got to go to the apartment in Manhattan. Island,
the Hamptons.
We have to go to The Hamptons. They gotta go to yeah, if you're
in New York, you're always in Caymans or whatever. It's an
aspirin. It's nonstop. Aspirin. It's nonstop. It's not. It's
never like, let's just, I don't know,
just go play frisbee with the dog. Yeah, I can't do any.
Let's Play Part cheesy or something like that. I play
Parcheesi. Anyway, so. So it's always fun when people talk
about guns, and I'll be like, Oh, I love guns.
That's probably the only difference you're gonna get with
this to crowds. One is the Republic. And that's your gun
collection.
But here's where it gets better. Because and I gotta I love my
wife, God, the former the girl formerly known as the communist
chick against the nuclear bombs in Amsterdam. So, you know, so
it'd be like, Oh, we got to keep guns into the hands of crazies.
And I'm like, you know, this this just common sense. I swear
to God, it's just common sense that we we do background checks.
Yes Of not want. It's just It's just common sense that to we do
background checks on the people's mental health. I'm
like, you can't legislate crazy to look at me. I'm perfectly
saying I got tons of guns. And then you see them step back,
like half of half an inch. But then the Mickey will be like,
Yeah, I got one in my glove compartment. So here's two, six
foot plus people. Blonde,
beautiful. Nazis, not six.
Heil everybody. How you doing? We got some guns. If you'd like
to come and take a look at gun collection. He's come over to
the house some time. I love Austin for that. You know, I bet
you'll still get invited back.
Anyone know that You even went through this rant?
Yeah, you'd be surprised. You'd be surprised. I did meet Burton,
who's a designer here. Architect. I'm sorry. His wife I
had not met now. Burton is cool. His wife is a she's a she was a
lawyer. But she works for our national treasure PBS. And she
does. Documentaries. And there's a she's doing a documentary
about Fisher versus University of Texas, which is coming before
the Supreme Court in I think two or three weeks. And, and she's
she's definitely listening to the show. And this is about
affirmative action. This is where these women were refused
entry into the University of Texas. And they say it's because
they were female and white. Not because of their their grades or
their aptitude.
This case has been cropping up all over the place. It was
crowded showed up to make it for that Michigan State had a
similar case where some girl who, again, a girl with straight
A's and whatever family everyone went to Michigan State and she
couldn't get in. And because of affirmative action, they had
enough white right white girls they had well, we got it oh,
we're at the limit. Sorry, can't get in, you will just bring in
somebody else.
So this is the so yeah. Fisher versus UT. And this started in
2008. Now it's before the Supreme Court. And and it
wouldn't be very interesting because, you know, all the
courts have said no, that's totally okay. And we're getting
to the point where, you know, it is flipping around, you know, I
think that Mickey had to fill out a thing online. And then
when they asked for her race and and it didn't say Caucasian, she
clicked on white and then it had two sub options dropped open
Hispanic and non Hispanic. So there is no Caucasian anymore.
There's no white it was white, Hispanic and white, non
Hispanic. Interesting.
Yeah, it's interesting.
Things are changing it look what I got. I don't care who you are.
Either way, you know, I got 30 More 40 More years on this
planet. Screw y'all. craps not my problem. I'm just here to
bring you the truth. Ah
protect what is there, Monica? protectors of truth or what was
it?
Guardians of reality,
guardians of reality that's what we do. So
let's look at some bullcrap reality of course that involves
the reporting around the threat of North Korea. It has been
fantastic in just the past few days.
Tonight, the US is tracking a mobile missile launcher that has
been moved within North Korea by train. The launcher has the
ability to strike Japan as well as US bases in Okinawa and Guam.
Adding to the fears today, the young leader of the North said
the moment of explosion is coming.
North Korea's newsreaders promising a justified all out
war, while here in South Korea today, US forces trained in
hazmat suits. It is preparation in the unlikely event Kim Jong
Un to deploy his nation's arsenal of chemical weapons
Alright, so a couple things first of all, in the unlikely
event, thank you for pointing out the obvious. I just want to
say hello to all of our servicemen and women they're in
South Korea all 37,000 of you. I'm sorry, this bull crap is
making you put on your frickin hazmat I can just see him going
like crap. Horrible. You got to put on the hazmat suit for this
BS again. Okay. Okay. Let's see what the Korean reporting on CNN
so they've got this hot hot bait in South Korea, who was doing
all the on the spot reporting. And she editorialize is very
interesting to the perception of Kim Jong Hoon in the South.
Very simply, South Korea's think he's completely crazy that he is
perhaps even worse than his father. A lot of times you look
on some of the South Korean newspapers, some of the blogs
and people are making fun of his weight calling them a pig
calling him a dog. They cannot stand him here. But that
unpredictability is what they are most
concerned about. Okay, now comes the pure editorialize ation This
is not what they're saying. This is what she thinks
he is essentially a man child with his finger on the nuclear
button with Thank you.
Thank you very nice a manchild with his finger on the nuclear
button. Okay, we're sufficiently scared now. Maybe we should
ratchet it up and have spokes hold Carney at the White House.
Given a little extra GIGO on the handles. First, we have alarming
new video coming out of North Korea to show you take a look at
this. You see missiles being fired on North Korea's Coast the
secretive regime released yesterday. Now we don't know if
these missiles are real. They may have even been photoshopped.
But a US official photoshopped video who medium range missiles
have been loaded onto launchers on North Korea's east coast. The
White House The White House says it would not be surprised if Kim
Jong on orders missiles to be fired to show off his military
might.
We've obviously seen the reports that North Korea may be making
preparations to launch a missile and we're monitoring this
situation closely. And we would not be surprised to see them
take such an action.
Oh, that's why we would not be surprised now what could be
causing all of this we have to I mean, the war on crazy ladies
and gentlemen, if you want to legislate anyone to do anything,
based upon the mental health that shouldn't be presenting
facts on news stories or being a pundit or being on television at
all, you should have a certificate of good health
because these people are insane show of
why we are where we are today. I think Woodstock you know, the
the Woodstock generation is now ruling this country actually
people my age who were you know, not me, of course, Don, but
other people in college, were smoking the stuff back in the
70s. And they're now running the government. So it doesn't
surprise me that we're being a little bit friendlier to it. But
let's look at the rest of the world. Before we jump into this.
I was looking today at the statistics about how many
countries have legalized marijuana. One of the things
that really shocked me is that one of about five countries that
have absolute legalization, North Korea, which may explain a
lot about what's going on over there right now let's okay. Oh,
How insane is that?
Yeah, he should be not allowed to buy a gun. That guy
could I mean? Well, before before you go, let me just wrap
it up. Let me wrap it up for because I
know, because I got one clip that has to do with this.
Well, I have I have an answer to a question in it. All right. So
at the thank God, thank God, at least at the State Department
press briefing. Someone asked the question that we were
interested in is how do you get these messages from North Korea?
How do you know when they say we're going to launch a missile?
How do you know when they say there's going to be a nuclear
attack? How do you know
this is about the mechanics of yesterday's latest threat? I
don't know if there's a threat today but North Korea says it
has notified and ratified and notified you that it intends to
attack? Mechanically, do you get any notification? Do they go
through the New York channel? For example, do you get are they
just publishing it on their state news wire KCNA. And that's
their obligation.
i Some that in some of their public statements, Paul,
frankly, to my knowledge, they don't call us up and say, you
know, let us just say privately what we've just said publicly,
generally, these kinds of statements of, as Matt called
it, bombast and aggressive rhetoric come through the belly
and I
didn't say bellicose, I know she knows the New York channel, fax
machine or Oh, the fax
machine? Do they use the fax machine?
If I have anything to share on that? I will, but I don't I
don't think there's anything to share there.
So, so no one calls, no one faxes, there's no nothing.
There's nothing. It's just whatever the CIA posts on the
website that Oh, I'm sorry, the KCNA.
So there may be a missile firing, after all, but it's not
for reasons anyone would suspect. But there was a long
report done on the Australian broadcaster where they brought
in one of their experts to discuss this. And I thought it
was it was a fairly level headed. Discussion of what's
going really going on in North Korea and I just worth playing.
I mean, this is nothing we get like, I mean, it's reasonable.
And play long report waste,
is it just posturing? Or is an attack on the horizon, we're
joined by international security expert, Professor Alan Dupont,
Professor, thank you for coming in this morning. What's going on
behind the scenes where has all this come from?
Well, this is pretty typical of past North Korean behavior, when
they have a change of regime and we have a new leader in power
now, Kim Jong Un, they tend to manufacture a crisis one to
boost his political constituency at home. So in other words, to
take control of the military. And secondly, to try and get
concessions from the West in terms of aid. And then you see
quieten down again, and then we see another crisis follow. It's
more difficult and dangerous this time, though, because North
Korea has nuclear weapons, it has the means of delivering them
these missiles, and also the South Koreans have made it clear
that this time around, they're not going to turn the other
face, they're going to respond if they're attacked. So that
makes it much more dangerous.
So who's in the firing line their missiles that they have?
How far can they reach, and we do have a bit of a map here,
depending on I guess which missile they're using?
Well, they have a range of missiles. For the one they've
just moved to the east coast of what we call a medium range
missiles, they have a range of about 3000 kilometers, that
would take them to about Northern Indonesia, maybe as far
as Guam, where the US has a base, but not to continental
United States. So the other two missiles, they just moved to the
East Coast. Our my view would be that they probably testify one
of these missiles, close to Japan, to demonstrate they're
not going to be cowed by the West and by UN sanctions. And
then hopefully, they'll declare victory and go home. That's what
we're all hoping because we don't know what's going to
happen because of the unpredictability of the
situation. Kim Jong Un is an unproven leader. So we don't
really know what's going to happen.
So even though there is quite an amount of posturing here, the
danger is that you just don't know what this very strange
country in this very strange family is going to do. Well, I
think that's true. At one level there is there is a measure of
unpredictability about having a new leader, but let's not, let's
just understand that the North Koreans are rational, they're
not going to commit suicide. And if they find a nuclear weapon,
that would be a suicide note effectively. So they are
rational in their calculation. The only card they have to play
to get concessions from the west is their nuclear card and
they've played it very effectively.
Oh, that's bull crap. That is not how it's gonna happen. He's
Miss eat. He's not on the st. He's what script is he from?
I don't know. It's not the script. I don't know. I've never
heard the script completely wrong
version of the script. This is completely wrong. It is the
cyber war. Here's proof
sounds like North Korean state TV. But what it says You're no
better than a dog Kim Jong Un. That's what greeted viewers of
the North Korean government website. What do you mean so
giddy, along with pictures of Kim Jong Un and drag? somber
song showing Kim Jong Il drinking wine while North Korean
children starve?
On hoody? That was your that was your wine tasting.
So Katie's Twitter account linked to this image. a wanted
poster showing Kim Jong Un dressed as an obese pig with
exposed chest hair and a Mickey Mouse tattoo on his gut now
Wait, so this is this not have watched this report. This is
same hot hot CNN tricky in South Korea. Yeah, she's gonna take
this into a reason for missile launches and fill out cyber war
calling him a threat to world peace. The North Korean Twitter
account blared the word hat and it showed an image of a mass
that's a favorite symbol of the hacking group Anonymous
was interesting by the way, if you watch the video she says it
showed the icon of a mask which would be the mask from the from
the V for Vendetta me movie, but it doesn't it shows the Tango
down. icon which is interesting, so just complete cock up on CNN
as part no one's listening to even what the reporters are
saying when they're putting the fake images in.
Love. sounds totally like a North Korean announcer Yeah,
totally. You can't help but laugh says information security
experts Seung Joo Kim, but this is just the latest shot and an
ongoing and very serious cyber war between the two Koreas. That
goes far beyond just the humiliation of a leader farbio
which is the bigger threat a conventional war on nuclear war.
Oh, what is the answer? John C. Dvorak.
Cyber War obviously
no, no, I don't I don't have them on
or the cyber war sorry about the purpose of a cyber war is to
disable the enemy's ability to fight says Professor Kim.
Oh, right. I'm gonna dis your gun won't work.
If the cyber war continues. There's a high possibility it
could lead to a conventional war, high possibility
conventional war, and a country that claims to be the most wired
in the world South Korea has been under increasing attack.
Just last month, a major cyber assault NOC South Korean
television networks offline and froze business at banks. That's
why Seoul is building a cyber army. These are the soldiers
learning to break code and understand what they call North
Korean cyber terrorism. We can't show you their faces because
many of them will eventually work with the South Korean
military on the cyber front line, the cyber front lines with
a face off with cyber soldiers cyber as a mute.
I can't take the alliteration anymore CNN, cyber soldiers
cyber freddo and
so what they have is go back to the Australian guy which is
probably was a little it wasn't exciting. No, they were gonna
fire off some tests missile is going to land somewhere and
they're gonna say they were going to show you we got
missiles, which they've done a couple of times, just recently.
So okay, so then that this whole thing ends which takes it out of
the news cycle, assuming that this guy is right, and assuming
that everybody doesn't panic because he shot a missile off.
And so that will be out of the news cycle. So you have to
create this new news cycle because for some reason we want
to keep North Korea in the news is these horrible people a bad
guys because we don't want them to reunite those two countries
for some other reason. And so the create this bullcrap cyber
war thing, but again, is, as far as I'm concerned, it makes zero
sense because North Korea is not a computerized country by any
means. And what do they have the two the two great genius hackers
that are over there setting up all this bogus stuff now, they
got nothing going on South Korea's are loaded to the gills
with with people on
computers. how little you know how little you know, apparently
I don't know anything. Oh, let me tell you. Here's why. Austin
is targeted, because they want Google Fiber. That's what's
going on. I couldn't
drop the Austin targeted story like a hot potato because it was
so stupid. Like you said someone got in trouble for the you know,
for putting that in there. Somebody slipped in. What they
should do is they should show you know South Korea with the
Mickey Mouse on an intercontinental ballistic
missile. And now you're talking. You're doing the Mickey Mouse on
his gut thing as a little. By the way, the chat room correctly
pointed out that North Korea communicates to the United
States government through the fax machine.
Dangerous psycho cyber terrorists using a fax machine,
Moe Factz F a CTS
of facts, and oh, God, I like that. Anyway. So this is
becoming laughable. Yeah. And by the way, whoever that woman is
in South Korea making these reports you should be ashamed of
herself.
She's loving it. She's getting paid. She's getting laid. I
guarantee it. She's hot. She's on CNN, she's Boogie and down.
It's all fantastic. She's hanging out with the whole elite
layer. She she's part of the whole deal. Not enough. This is
all good. Of course we hear nothing about Iran when we're
supposed to be like we've met that time bomb ticking there
wasn't Bibi's fuse almost at the end of
the round bomb with a fuse at the top.
Yeah, so we have that fuse. And then we have course we don't
hear anything about the 130 I think maybe 140 prisoners now on
hunger strike in Guantanamo Bay. So we've been Being in Guam just
to because you know, people like Guam, Guantanamo, they don't
even know what differences. You know, just to add a little bit
of insult to injury, and of course, everyone really forgets
the history of the peninsula. Which is after the Second World
War, when I'm sorry, in the Second World War, Japan invaded
Korea, quite violently, I will say. And then when was it after
the war? No, I said during the Second World War, I said they
invaded Korea very violently, really, they did just
obliterated these people. They were forbidden to speak Korean.
They made him give him they gave him all Japanese names. And this
was only 6070 years ago. This is this is not that.
Historically, they've been doing that. Every few 100 years, they
go in and they kick the shit out of the Koreans and then they
retreat back to Japan. Yeah, it's something nobody really
that's been it's because they've taken a actually the Koreans
will tell you this, I'll give you a lecture about it. At least
in South Korea, they they have taken the besides taking the
language, they burn their libraries, they stole as much of
the history as they could so note, so this actually now is
kind of lost the history as to why this continues. Yeah. Maybe
the Koreans don't even know what's the problem with these
people.
No one knows. And then of course, we had the, you know,
then it was he was going to be Secretary of State I forget his
name. He drew the line literally just went like okay, 38th
parallel. North Korea, South Korea, Stalin, you take care of
the North will take care of the South. And that's what happened.
And then And then, you know, the, the true hero of of Korea
wanted to reunite north and south, the grad this kid's
granddad. And then, you know, there was supposed to be like,
30 days, and it turned into three years and millions of
people that died in you know, families. And it was it was
basically like north and south, like our Civil War. It was
messed up. But it was propagated by, I would say, essentially, us
and the Russians. And and here we are, and there we are, and
it's all back again, it's the same thing. And and you know, I
think this just this kid's new, we got to make him look crazy.
So we can keep this meme going for the next 20 years. Right? We
just we always got
conscionable it's ridiculous. This could be I think your
uncle's right, this they would like to just get a Pete and not
a Pete, you know, just end it. Instead of having this crazy.
It's like a piece of the what is it a pause and they'd be in the
war, what it's it hasn't been resolved?
Well, also, we do know that that these things, you've got to be
really careful because when East and West Germany were you
reunited. I mean, if South Korea were probably at this point,
doesn't want the economic duress that will ensue.
The Germans had took, but the Germans did it. The Germans took
a huge economic hit, when they when they opened the gates and
let me also a cultural hit. Because people over in East
Germany were so anti communist that they maintain pain to kind
of fascist, you know, pro Hitler kind of attitude about
everything. Yeah. So they had to get rid of the they had to like
re educate them. And then they had to give him a lot of money.
So they get fixed a mess up that there was over there because the
the East German government was doing nothing. And this would be
the exact same thing. But I think South Korea is strong
enough now. Then the Germans realized that this was going to
be a problem, but they knew they were strong enough to be able to
take the economic punch in the gut, right that it was going to
happen when they reunited the two countries to the euro
reunited their own country
in case case in point then they'll run the whole show. So
South Korea, I would say take a look at Germany because Germany
runs Europe.
Yeah, so responsible is South Korea. We are all amazing. And
all of Asian you know, kick butt
jabs. Kick the
you know Japanese, Japanese Harlem jabs.
Please jabs.
American princess every time I hear it, I think
True. True. You know, we need and Joe Biden our our vice
president said it just this weekend, you know we need John,
you know we need
the affirmative task we have now is is to actually create a new
world order.
That's this weekend. That is your vice president. That
was this weekend this weekend. He just got the memo was it?
What is this? What is this? Let me open this envelope first.
What is the same? Bilderberg before your eyes? Only
Rothschild? Oh, I know I bring my teleprompter over here. Check
this out.
The affirmative task we have now is is to actually create a new
world order.
The affirmative task we have now is to actually create it A New
World Order. What does that even mean?
What is it? Didn't we already create a new world order with us
at the top? What does he want to do now?
The affirmative task? The affirmative task? I don't
understand it. I don't understand the list a little
more.
It's an old memo to listen to a little more.
Maybe there's something in there. Because
the global order is changing again.
Oh, yeah. How's it changing again,
and the institutions that are rule that it works so well, in
the post world war two era for decades, they need to be
strengthened. And some have to be changed. So we have to do
what we do best.
We could go and kill somebody drone have to leave.
We have to leave leave, we have to update the global rules of
the road. We have to we have to do it in a way that maximize
benefits for everyone. Because obviously, it's overwhelmingly
in our interest. This is not a zero sum game. It's overwhelming
in our interest that China prosper that Mongolia prosper.
That's the key right there. Mongolia. This has something to
do with Mongolia. Why would you just
wait, let's see if there's more besides Mongolia. Nations big
enlarge? Oh, no, it's Mongolia.
Large big. Nations big and large isn't gonna redundant.
I like tea. This is big and large.
We have to level the playing field. So we got to level the
playing field, incoming American companies and workers can
compete in the world that the competition is fair, it's
healthy.
To the first point, we know that was just his first point
came into office facing the worst financial recession since
the Great Depression. The worst
financial recession since the Great Depression. Since my
Grammy,
we had to unfreeze the credit markets we formed the financial
system inject demand back into the economy. And while this
agenda is far from complete, we've made significant progress
with all of your help the economy has now added private
sector jobs.
Right enough 80,000 jobs and we know there's a magic number
where your breakeven it's 150 You don't get 150 You are losing
jobs based on the population increasing all the rest Hey, bad
news bad news. I just forwarded you a picture from the shield
from Chapel Hill of the giant voice system Yeah, they've
updated the look I this is not good because we there's no way
we can replicate this. This is yeah, this thing looks nothing
like the Radio Shack horn.
Well, I mean we can still replicate the sound of it
Yeah, but I mean we are badges with like mail this yeah it's on
your email our badges with like, you know like government
property Do not touch or you will be you know, under
prosecute you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the
law. Yeah, it's not gonna look right. This thing has like a
solar panel.
Oh, wait, I think your solar
just just the Bogota, just bogus solar thing. Yeah, you
don't need real solar.
We're not gonna run our 100 watts on a solar panel and I
doubt does.
Cheaper, just have a solar look.
Solar look, in fact, I'm gonna put one of those on the car.
Yeah, it's about your roof.
We might as well you know, Fisker is about to go out of
business. Holy crap. Yeah.
They fired everybody. The CEO and John by Fisker, I'm talking
about this this giant voices speaker. Yeah. Hell they do in
here. That's a
new device. Man. It looks like
something that looks like something that would kill you.
Yeah. This may be one of those things where they can just turn
up to the frequency and then kill every looks like a tesla
coil, doesn't it? Or something? Yeah. Does this look right.
Anyway, as we get into a very short segment to thank everyone
today, I would like to remind you, as I did, actually, I
reminded the reporter from Fortune magazine. He did a there
was a whole piece about podcasting, how podcasting has
finally come into its own. And of course, he interviews
everybody but me. No, no, me. No Dave Winer. No, nobody, nobody
and then No, no, and it's all about comedians making money.
And so we got Adam Carolla and Leo got another fine comedian.
And, you know, he got like Vox media who say that never did
never want to invest in any in any networks or anything. No
other model exists, apparently. And yeah, so I posted my comment
I've got called out by the way which means you get highlighted
on the Forbes said I said hey you know when when NPR wakes up
one day and you know they see that we've stolen their entire
audience you know then you can interview me until then go away
something like that effect and then I'm like someone sends me a
link NPR from the listener supported NPR yeah if you want
to take into account that all ads our listeners I guess the
those businesses that do advertising our listeners are
making so much money. Not only are they moving into brand new
studios and offices, but they're not even taking any of the old
stuff John really go to NPR stuff.curry.com They're
auctioning it off now. I already looked through it. And there's
nothing worth the bidding on they're auctioning off the
entire studios. NPR stuff that curry Yeah, NPR stuff that
curry.com They're auctioning off like oh, this is the legendary
This American Life studio oh this is the legendary on air
studio. And that made the the the mics the mixers the
compressors the limiters to computers they're getting all
new stuff
they got nothing but money these
people these are you on the side of you look at keeps
it keeps it keeps redirected. Oh, Rasmus auctioneers. Okay,
go. That's it. NPR. That's what I do. That's
nice. These studios are cool. It's for old fashioned, but you
know what I mean? Yeah, boom should be good. They got some
Oh, they got some great speakers. They got project Holy
crap. Look at the stuff they're selling.
So you can still get in? It's until April 15. But then they're
literally you know, it's the entire studios. And this stuff
looks nice, man.
Look at the mixer. And what can what do they need? Right this
radio or? I don't care. What are you did NPR right. So it's
radio? Yeah. What do they need a man it looks like a Mac. You're
one of these big mixers with like 80 channels? Yeah. How many
mics do they have in the studio? Mic number 43 On the bill and
bring up Mike 36 on his level there. And then there's one
overhead boom mic, turn that one down to half volume, and then
turn up the floor mic because the guys are stomping their feet
and turn up byte number 77. Because that gives a little more
ambience to the room.
Now I understand all the ISDN codecs and stuff like that, but
I mean, really, they've got just mixer after mixer and
compressors. And I mean, it's it's porn, really, but it's
nothing I can use. No, not really. And but you know, but
I'm just surprised. It's like, you know, I moved from Camp
MoPhO to the Travis hideout. I moved the studio.
I didn't like that move one of these studios lifestyle Honey,
let's
just do a yard sale. So
here's an NPR here's one of the little workstation areas. There
are 1-234-567-8910 1112 1314 1516 17
monitors on this one table and 17 computers and then there's a
there's another table B hind it you can are kind of toward the
this is on outrageous away. There's they're wasting money.
Yeah, they need all this shit for
for their Boehner.
Your Rights porn.
It's total porn. And we'll have none of that.
I'm gonna show my school by donating to no agenda. Imagine

The Baronet serves under the Baron and in an era. Can
I ask you a question?
If you're a baron? I am the key. I am the peerage officer. Yes. A
peerage officer.
If you are a baron, can you demand a tithing from people
when they are on your protectorate?
That is yet to be determined.
Political answer, you should come to some of the parties in
Austin.
I'd fit right in. You know, I'd had the tape recorder going all
the time, though. Oh, really? Almost. You feel about that?
Andrew Lemansky at least helped us out here from Colorado

all of the people out there who are thinking for themselves
including my friend Chuck be from Boise even though he called
me out as a douchebag.

Daniel Terrell Leo. Yeah, it could be Charleston, South
Carolina. Great place. It says all says great for commutes also
great for listening to during a 10k.
I can imagine people winning, listening to us.
Yeah, because they get angry about certain things to start
running faster. And Manuel lo ca in Brossard, Quebec. He says
Happy Birthday and so he used to guessing I'm 61 Dimitri federal
Yes, yes for the dossier of the dossier of in London 60
Christopher Walker and Green Bay, Wisconsin 50. And Matt
Carver, LLC, Sheboygan, Sheboygan, Michigan, 50. And
that's all we have got a couple of birthday call outs. And
yeah, but I just wait. Kind of
kind of disappointed. Well,
you should be disappointed because no one gave a crap about
your birthday. That's, I mean, that says more about you than
the show.
It's probably I killed the donation segment today.
How did you go? Well, I'll gladly blame you. All right.
What did you do?
I wanted a birthday call out and then nobody gave me one.
And then I went like, no, no, no gifts. No.
Till next Thursday, when we have something or the 505 show,
that'd be a good thing to get donate to 505.
Well, it's very simple. This program that we've just this
show alone, we've given you so much more value than you can get
then if you're living in Euro land, you can now you go to the
show notes. Here's what you do that here's here's your value,
okay? This can get you promoted at the office can get you late
at the cocktail party can get you into a fight at your local
bar. But I think it'll make you look smart above all, and you'll
feel good about yourself. When the next time someone because
this is very accurate. Really, right now people are saying, Oh
man, I can't believe these elites describe you. They're
taking our money away. And you say excuse me, this is what we
all signed up for. It's in the Lisbon Treaty. It's a part of
your European Human Rights. And then you go to the shownotes 502
dot n a show notes.com Or you go to your own land, you download
the report, I've highlighted it with yellow, the actual pieces
that we talked about, about being allowed to be killed and
if you're an alcoholic, that's why she used in the bar is
really cool that they can arrest you if you're if you're an
alcoholic and lock you up and lock you or if you're homeless.
They can lock you up your Vagrant, which isn't even the
definition of homeless now that
means just a kind of a bummer. On the street, you might have a
place to stay if you have a shopping
cart, essentially, with stuff in it. That is not in a bag.
Yes, by the way, don't see so many homeless in Europe. Yeah,
they're
picking them up. And and you can say, Look, it says right here,
your possessions are yours unless it's in the public
interest. So they can take anything from you. Yeah, land.
Yeah, house, car, your wife. Probably some of you may be
happy with that clause, but let it let that be what it is. But
seriously, so this is this is I think this is Big Valley, you
can you can fold these three pieces of paper in your back
pocket and say, oh, sorry, this is what we all signed up for it.
And congratulations. And you're going to look like the smartest
guy in the room. And we'll be like, Oh, I didn't know.
Exactly. Now, that is probably worth at least five bucks a
month. We would appreciate some of the bigger donations, you
know, so we can at least pretend that we have the NPR like
studios who apparently are doing giving you such great value. God
pisses me off now look at what those guys have. I mean, I don't
need all that. But I mean, I'd like to pay rent. Anyway, I'd
like to thank Agent Orange. In the Netherlands he sent me a DIA
challenge coin.
Oh,
don't worry, you got one too. But what's interesting is on
this, so do they have like a slogan or logo or slogan? So it
says department as our Defense Intelligence Agency on the front
with their crazy New World Order, like logo but on the
back? It says counter drug document exploitation. What
Yeah, this is I can't I googled it and I can only find challenge
coins with this on it but no one explanation counterdrug document
exploitation. That's what it says on the DIA challenge coin.
I look, I just want to see counter drug one word counter
drug. One word is counter drug counter
drug is one word. Second Word document. Third word
exploitation. And I've Googled this and all I come up, I went
to the website. And there's no explanation for this.
Here's a bunch of
so there's pictures of the challenge coin and some guys are
selling them on eBay. But I don't know what it means.
I don't know this counter drug.org There's counter drug I
just need to find the word. Regional counter drug training
academy. There's all kinds of counter drugs, some sort of a
meme for for mission of Northeast counter drug training
is to provide cost effective counter drug education, and
advanced training to fight domestic and transnational. And
I have to click on it because that's all Google will give me
there but that's not you. So if you go to dia.mil which of
course is their website, the
there's nothing about this. Nothing is nothing. Thai. Okay.
So let me just read this to you. And you were just just a little
teaser.
Especially as to be www.dia.mil
Oh, that's so lame. Hey, hold cheese get some guy knows what
he's doing really found it. And this is the this is the
Northeast counter drug Training Center in Pennsylvania founded
in 1999, in accordance with the provisions outlined in the 1999
Defense Appropriations Act. The Northeast counter drug training
centers operated by the Pennsylvania National Guard with
campuses at Fort Indiantown Gap Pennsylvania, and Volk Air Force
airfield Wisconsin. Both facilities are capable of
housing feeding and training law enforcement and drug demand
reduction professionals at no cost to their parents agencies.
This is really odd. The sites provide a modern professional
environment for training conferences and planning
sessions which are essential to the counter drug community.
Is that like the Bitcoin community? Geez.
So we even know anything about this.
No, check this out. The DIA seal. The initial letters of the
Defense Intelligence Agency dia also comprises the Greek word
dia, which means divided into two parts. In this instance, the
flaming torch and its gold color represent knowledge, ie
intelligence, lighting the way of the known, light blue green
world against the darkness or unknown symbolized by the dark
background, the area of the truth still sought by the
worldwide mission of the agency. The two red atomic ellipses
symbolizes the scientific and the technical aspects of
intelligence Today and of the future, the 13 stars and the
wreath are adopted from the Department of Starfleet Command
and identifies the Department of Defense and identifies the
agency as a DOD organization. This is Illuminati shit, man,
these guys are out there out of their mind. out of their mind,
they're just putting crap on them just to scare you.
Well, it's counter drug thing is a big wide open
counter drug document exploitation. What's the
exploitation part of it?
And what's the document part of it? I don't know.
Anyway, thank you very much, Agent Orange. I feel really
unsafe now. Now that I have this,
you sure you want to remind people to go to dvorak.org/na
Give us a better a little more help on the Thursday show. Also
challenge org.com/and A no agenda show.com and click on the
donate button there or no agenda nation.com where you can click
on the donate button there too.
Yeah, we really I think we we deserve a little more than than
what we got today. for.org/and A bank bad day bad day. Oh, no.
Anyway, I was going to I was just going to use this to say
happy birthday to my my partner my my partner in crime, John C.
Dvorak, who celebrated on the fifth happy birthday from your
friends as a couple you go enjoy your crappy gift.
I think you should play that horn the celebration horn from
the last couple shows which I think summarizes the summarizes
everything
I'd say Sure. On a second I'll find it for you. I didn't have
that one handy. What did you title it celebration? ayresome
Yeah. All right. Well, that's coming up sorry, that that would
have been completely appropriate. No, it's gone. On
now you make me do this. Ah, it was 500 We know that not to go
back into the archives. This is why
for the last show um,
when you were playing it it was played Oh, horns that's why
Okay. Happy Birthday John. Yeah, thanks
you feel better?
Yeah, no, I did celebration hordes really liven me up Okay,
let's
open up our stores there and I'm not totally stepped forward by a
friend from Russia you have not only given our our bestest buddy
John C. Dvorak a very nice birthday present. But you also
today become a knight of the no agenda roundtable so I hereby
pronounce these atonia let me do that again. That's not his name.
Sir. On a totally night of an agenda roundtable for you, sir.
I think we'll just do an extra helping of hookers and blow
forget all the other stuff. Russian style Russian style.
Exactly. Putin style, my friend, the good stuff. Give you the
good stuff. And then we congratulate sir here Fiat
bourse not dear old sir Fiat bores on becoming a Baronet and
Sir Rory stone, also now becoming a Baronet both of those
gentlemen on their way to Baronies where they can claim a
protected according to our peerage officer. And thank you
all for supporting the no agenda show the best podcast in the
universe, particularly in these challenging times. When, you
know, all we're getting is the middle class being pumped up and
all the poor people are down here trying to be guardians of
reality. Something like that, once again, our address.org/and
A. Crew. So there was a there was something I wanted to do
with you. Yeah, this was actually just kind of, it's kind
of good. It kind of flows right into or really out of our poor
donation segment. And so this this poll that was done,
remember the one that that we know Al Roker was like so
surprised that 37% of Americans believe global warming is a
hoax. Yeah. And of course he had to Word Superstorm Sandy. So So
Chris Matthews. I'm only using Matthews as an intro, because I
got a hold of this entire poll. The results split out by
demographic and it's very interesting for this show. And
we are missing out on very, very, very important target
audiences. That was so we should have a meeting about it. But
first he has Matthews, who of course is using this poll to
point out that Republicans of course are insane. Let's start
with a wild one.
Do you believe President Obama is the antichrist? Let me just
give you a refresher. So we all know exactly what that means.
Webster's defines at Christ as quote, one who denies or opposes
Christ, specifically a great antagonists expected to fill the
world with wickedness, but to be conquered forever by Christ in
His Second Coming Well, 13% of Americans one in six and 22% of
Romney voters believe Obama is the AntiChrist and credible,
another 30% Can't make up their minds lists. 26% think he might
be the Antichrist? What kind of a country have a loony bin Are
we living with? Here's another gem here. 11% say the government
knew about and let the nine elevens attack happen. The same
amount of by the way, aren't sure where the government did or
did not try to stop it. So this is the list. This is the
problem. truthers birthers they're all over the wall here.
I tell you, the truth is that I actually believe that George W
had a plunger, you know, and blew up not just the World Trade
Center, but blew up his own pentagon. I mean, why what's
what's the purpose here to get us into Iraq, where he was
already talking us into? He would have talked this to
anyway, probably your thoughts.
Alright. So yeah, okay. Your thought my thoughts is this
guy's an asshole. But my actual thoughts are based upon facts.
So I got this poll from it's it's called the National
conspiracy theories poll, and is done by Public Policy Polling.
Are these guys any good? Or is this just some shill
organization and should we
I? I'm not without looking him up. As far as I recall. They're,
they're legit.
They're legit. So here's how they did the survey. 1247
registered American voters from March 27 to the 30th. They had
them do an automated telephone telephone interviews. That's
basically touchtone phone answers. Right. And so they
asked me a number of setup questions like did you vote for
Romney? Obama? Not sure. Someone else? Are you a Democrat,
Republican? Other? And they asked some race questions. And
some some very interesting statistics, which I think are
worth discussing here on the program. So of the respondents,
11% were Hispanic 72% were white, 12% African American, and
5%. Other. So you know, this, to me automatically says this is
not a very representative poll of the country, or is it? John?
Is 12% of the United States? Black is 11% Hispanic.
I think this may be accurate. Is that accurate?
The 45% of the respondents were between 46 and 65 years old. Is
that also accurate as the majority almost I don't know
that. I don't know those demos. All right. Anyway. So just so
you know. So here's what's interesting. It's the cross tabs
what you want, you don't want all the you know, just the end
result. You want to break it down to see what the the Obama
bots versus the Romney bots are thinking and the Democrats
versus the Republicans. So when you look at believe global
warming is a hoax 61% of the people who voted for Romney,
believe it 12% for Obama. I'm like, okay, that kind of makes
sense. These people are probably more prone to kind of the the
rhetoric about it. But then we get believe Bin Laden is alive,
very close, actually. Mitt Romney 6% Barack Obama 4% But
most people really don't believe that he's alive. Believe in the
New World Order. Romney 38% Obama 16% So it's not like you
know, like they don't believe it at all. Believe Saddam involved
in 911 19% of Obama bots. 35% Romney bots, believe vaccines
cause autism almost equal 19% Obama bots and 22% Romney bots.
And here's my favorite. Believe the moon landing is fake.
Democrats win 6% to five Obama bots so you can never call me a
Republican again because the Obama bots are the ones that
believe this. believe aliens exist equal 28% that 28% believe
CIA spread crack in inner cities. Romney bots 10% Obama
bots 17%
Ooh, that's a big discrepancy.
Whoa, wait until we break it down by right I believe
government adds fluoride to water for sinister reasons equal
footing 8% for both I find this fascinating believe in
you do you don't you don't you don't like it? No keep going I'm
interested
believe in JFK conspiracy almost equal 24 to 25% believe
government controls minds through television 12% of Obama
bots believe that versus 18% Romney bots okay.
Did anybody believes that one? Believe government alone they
don't do it for sending as raised they do it just by
constantly hounding us with brainwashed and washed over
stories that are just nothing but parroting whatever they tell
you to say
well the question horrible they ask the question incorrectly
because they think that there's like Raise your right that's
that's why it's incorrect. However believe government
allowed 911 to happen that would be the truth or movement. Is
that right? The truth or movement users? Yeah, okay.
Romney bots 8% Obama bots 13%. It's the Obama bots who are the
truthers.
believe that's that's revealing believe Bin Laden
is alive. This is by gender 4% of men 8% of women believe the
moon landing was fake men 6% Women 7%. So far we need to be
going after female Obama bots. Believe moon landing was fake by
party. Again Democrats 7% almost twice as much as the
Republicans. Nine what is Chris
Matthews talking about? He's talking out of his ass.
believe the government allowed 911 to happen Democrats so this
is party affiliation 14% to 48% of Republicans truthers are
Democrats. And here's here's not okay, now. This is this is the
breakdown by race and they have Hispanic white, African American
and other Hey, China is your other ship. Go back to your
restaurant. believe global warming is a hoax. White people
41% Hispanic 34% and the category categorized as African
American 19% But here it is. Believe Bin Laden is alive white
4% I'll just say black because African Americans too many
syllables. Black 6% Hispanic 15% believe UFO crashed at Roswell
Hispanic 27% believe a New World Order Hispanic 10% John believed
moon landing was fake Hispanic 15% Were missing on the Hispanic
audience. Believe CIA spread crack in inner cities 15%
Hispanic now here's the one that is the chose me this this is a
correct. absolute correct poll. Believe in lizard people.
Hispanic 9% White 3% African American 0% I believe that to be
correct. I don't think black people believe in any of that.
Like Don't be ridiculous. There's no lizard people. So I
believe this poll to be correct and accurate.
That does sound about right it'd be mostly almost everything you
said none of it was like didn't make sense it made sense from
the get go but it also makes sense that they would did twist
it in such a sickening way the way Chris Matthews that he's
he's actually criticizing his own people.
So the final aim is the Republicans for everything the
final ones was of course we had to put in some dry. Believe
government spreads chemicals through plain exhausts. Black
people, zero white people 5% Hispanic people 8% believe
pharma and med invent new disease to make dollars. A black
12% White 40% Hispanic 19% And believe McCartney died and was
replaced in the curriculum. Hispanic 8% White percent for
black who? Zero. Paul who did he who? So I think we're really
know, for those of you who like to propagate the formula of this
program, please go out and hit your Hispanic neighbors in the
mouth. Do they need to be on board?
Yeah. Very fact that we had to have very few Hispanic we have
some, you know, overseas residents
to speak be speaking more Spanish. Yeah, we have Manyana
Yes. Part of that
part of Manyana to you.
Right. You don't know why
you don't speak Spanish.
I don't speak Spanish.
Our disappointing.
I gotta get some Oh, by the way, play back to Australia. Just
give him a little more attention. Yeah, I have a couple
of things I'm gonna play one is just a little bit of a of a
commercial. And I was thinking that I only got the end of it
but when I heard it I said this is called the this the
commercials colts voiceover I thought he view thinking cheese.
You know, maybe curry, at some point should just leave the
country and move to Australia where I can get voiceover work
because he's got to be better than this woman. It's only 78
calories.
She say it's such a dick. Is that how she started? It sounds
like it's such a thing. Yep.
Oh, dip. Yeah, now the Sheila's there. They got they got they
got a special time frame. Yes. I would think I could probably
make money as an American doing American voiceover there is a
market for that overseas.
Yeah, I think so. Yeah. So now so I'm watching this. This is
again that today's show today with the Australian version,
which has nothing to do with the today's show you Oh, thank
goodness. And so that I got the worst entertainment news report
ever. You have to listen to the whole thing because it's
hilarious. But I want you to judge this
for me. Okay, so this is an entertainment report.
Yeah, this is the worst one I've ever heard. And I want you
here's what the here's the question. Here's what we want to
deal with. You know, when I do like, a British accent or
something, and I can't barely sustain some of these things. To
a Brit, a sad set, then sound right is always something wrong.
Right. And you can tell if somebody's really got I believe
that the woman reporting supposedly from Hollywood in
this report, is an Australian faking a kind of a weird UNMISS
some sort of a mish Mosh accent is kind of New England. Little
southern twang is a complete fake accent. That is supposed to
sound American, but it's not even close. I think it's just a
complete mess. But you tell me but the report itself is even
worse than her voice
owed his fans. What's he done?
He's joined Twitter. Finally he sent out a couple of tweets and
people just absolutely went nuts. It's right there really
excited for you guys to see my directorial debut show. Debut
Shreveport info and pictures will be released exclusively
through my new Twitter. And then he followed that with another
tweet promoting something else. Somebody needs to have a talk
with him. Twitter is for juicy tidbits that I can use not ads.
Now. You need to mix it up with that, don't
you? Slower than Tim Gilbert on Twitter. I love it. Thanks for
that. Michelle will catch us shortly here at the top story
got her? Well,
I think she I'd have to see her. She almost sounds like she's
from the south.
Yeah, but she's just No, she didn't she I you're sorry. It
wouldn't help because she does. She's very generic she
would be so if I were sitting in the ivory tower and watching
this I mean it would literally I would be like Um, let me see.
Hold on a second. Get her off the air. I never want to see her
on again ever.
So it looks like get get whatever ghilardi whatever her
name is Guilfoyle. I will name the hit of Prime Minister of
Australia that
face woman, the Hatchet Face woman Gilly welds Gallard but we
like to say Gilly yard Gilly Gilly Gilly yard
I didn't realize that she got an office by and anyway, here's her
she she she slept her way up to the top didn't she know she did
a deal? Apparently I didn't know this until I listened to this
report. But you can hear it and hear how she got to where she is
and why they put the carbon tax and but this carbon tax and the
rest of it. She's doomed. She's not getting back in. I'm almost
sure of it. Now.
What is the report darling? Art in
the greens?
Yeah, there's so much carbon in the titles priority.
It's not the only thing that we'll do. We've got to stop the
boats, we've got to get the budget under control. There are
many things that we will need to tackle in the first term of a
coalition government. But the great breach of faith by this
prime minister in this government has been the carbon
tax. She promised us before the last election that there would
never ever be a carbon tax. She promised no carbon tax to win
votes, and then gave us a carbon tax to stay in the lodge under
the secret deal with the Greens now, if we want to restore faith
and trust in government, we have got to completely bury this
fundamental betrayal.
It just hit me it just it just kind of hit me. So they took
away the farmers got Hans everybody's guns in Australia.
In was it 98?
It was some time ago.
Yeah. And now they have a carbon tax. And I'm going to relate the
two because, you know, 98 was when was the big Crocodile
Dundee craze was that just before that,
it was it had to be let me look at the Crocodile Dundee.
Not three, one, maybe two. I mean, I because I went there in
1990. And I was so impressed. 86 was the first movie, right? So I
was so impressed in the 90s in 1990, did a documentary. And I
was just blown away by, you know, people were kind and sweet
and, and like, get their hands dirty, whether it's an office
job or a farm job or whatever, just like to work and like, work
hard, play hard, have fun, respect, but also there was some
kind of healthy respect between men and women. Because a lot of
women who look really smokin hot could beat the crap out of you.
It was just like, the whole thing was, like a perfect mix
between America, Britain, and the Netherlands. For some
reason, it was like, like a really nice vibe. And I was so
impressed that I've said for many years that I could easily
fit in there. It's actually a lot like Texas in many ways.
Maybe kind of Austin II, Texas, to be quite honest. And that I
think it went away. I think it was a castration of sorts, to
have to have this happen. And we know that with the carbon tax,
it is against the law for anyone, like in a restaurant to
say, well, we raised the price because of the carbon tax.
That's illegal, even though it's the truth. And it's and it's for
what, for something that is pretty unproven,
deny that. But he went on to do it's a report started about how
some of these small businesses in Brisbane are paying $30,000 a
year in carbon taxes. And of course, they just passed. This
creates a false,
but it's not the business, but it's not the businesses. It's
it's the slaves at the end of the day. It's yeah,
everybody has to pay more. Yeah, but it's like weird, but
I fit in, if you look at the history, and you look at look at
Australia, in World War Two, and in between the great wars, these
were people not to be messed with. And the government this in
this Hatchet Face person has, you know, she's leading this
takeover. That is sad. It's sad to see it, it feels, you know,
the fighting spirit just feels like it's gone. And it's because
there's nothing to back it up, I guess. Is that a logical
conclusion? Or am I am I just making things up?
No, I don't think I mean, from what I can tell. I don't know if
it's because of the this this crazy gun thing they managed to
pull off where they just essentially confiscated all the
guns. After that one massacre, I guess. Suppose that massacre,
whatever it was? I don't know. Maybe it's possible. And I guess
that does seem as though there had been slightly bald,
I was hearing the you know, how they did that, you know, how
they how they how they did that, that that gun ban? In Australia.
I was listening to the prime minister who did that word. Was
that Howard? Yeah, it was Howard. And the way they did it
is they they had they levied a tax for a gun buyback. And it
was billions of dollars. That the so everyone's so and this,
you know, if you really want to do it, and I think this would be
an interesting, interesting experiment. And you know, go
ahead, I would say try and put that into place. They said,
Alright, we have to get rid of everyone's guns. We can't let
because the Australia isn't Federation. It's a bit like the
United States only had what six states instead of 50. I don't
know if it's six. I don't want to sound like it, whatever. But
it's, it's federated. And so they knew they couldn't get all
the states to go on board. So they did this huge tax. So all
the other slaves had to pitch in, pay money for everyone's gun
to be bought back. And it worked.
So they got to they took 700,000 guns, which says it would be the
equivalent of 40 million guns taken out of action the United
States.
So do the times 10 So it would probably be a trillion dollars.
something so big.
Yeah. But everyone got on board and they did it. They all said
Okay. Interesting as
I was reading the propaganda here, it's interesting. They
say, Australia had 13 gun massacres in the 18 years before
the 1996 gun reforms, but not has not suffered any mass
shooting sense. It's Seems like a I'm suspecting that that is a
somewhat of a contrived statistic. Well,
it doesn't matter because our our war here is just purely the
war on crazy. It's, and I have two clips to back this up. And,
and I want to reiterate very clearly. And you and I John will
probably both be just getting by and doing the show, but in maybe
five years from now, I will say Please bring out the Red Book
around episode 500. Because I won't remember it'll be 502. And
I'll say, remember, when we said that they were going to get the
mental health records. And it'll be it's going to be your doctors
now who will give up, it'll be required give up the mental
health records. So you can't have a gun, but it's going to be
used for everything. Sorry, you can't drive. Sorry, you can't be
a teacher. I'm sorry. You can't even be near children. You can't
go to the pool. You can't be in a public place. You can't go to
a theater. You can't have a what you want to draw. No, you can't
have any you just can't. You can't have and that is that is
the danger. So our President is leading this common sense.
Legislation. What is going on that is the most dangerous thing
I've ever seen. And it's not about guns. It really isn't.
It's about controlling your every single move. And here's
proof as we hear now, that the front of James Holmes that the
psychiatrists knew, but it didn't get through the proper
channels that he was crazy.
Learning about new warnings about accused Colorado theater
gunman James Holmes from his psychiatrist. Newly released
documents the University of Colorado Denver psychiatrists,
Dr. Lynn Felton warned campus police in June that homes had
homicidal thoughts, and was a danger to the public. She also
said homes began to send her threatening text messages after
he stopped going to her for counseling. Her warning came
barely a month before the July 20 attack. The documents also
list items police collected from homes apartment, including 50
cans and bottles of beer, or Batman mask, paper shooting
targets, and prescription medications for anxiety and
depression. Last week, homes offered to plead guilty in the
attack that killed 12 people and injured 70 prosecutors rejected
the offer and said they would seek the death penalty. So if
this
guy actually did it, and if he did act alone, and all of that
is up in the air and it doesn't matter, we've been over that 100
times with you. It is of course obvious that the medication for
anxiety and depression might have something to do with it
when you take into account that the actual disclaimer in the
advertising says you may have suicidal thoughts. So but that's
not what's going to be used here. Instead, it's going to be
we needed system so that this psychiatrist could send the
information to the appropriate authorities so we could take
care of the slave right then and there. And we'll take it one
step further as your national treasure NPR is documenting, as
now we can actually know in advance when your brain is wired
incorrectly
learning about new warnings about accused,
sorry, crap, wrong one didn't mean to do that.
So can you explain your research a bit more? As I understand it,
you're saying you may have found a way to use brain scans to
predict whether criminals will break the law again? Yes, so we
know that, you know, important decisions are made every day in
the criminal justice system about for example, whether to
release an inmate under what conditions to release an inmate
parole or probation. And one of the things that parole boards
typically do is some form of what's called the risk
assessment to try to identify the factors that are likely to
promote persistence to future crime or persistence to future
crime. And one of those variables is impulsivity. So if
an offender scores high on impulsivity, for example, let's
say you might use a pen and paper test to have them fill out
and say that they buy things impulsively. They quit jobs
frequently. That might mean you would commit a crime
impulsively. Yeah, exactly. It turns out it does. So it turns
out that those scales can predict that an individual is
likely to come back to prison quickly. But you also might
study Nola games or neuro psych tests and, and those are going
to also give you a picture of what's happening. What we did,
though, that was different was we said, Well, those are trying
to measure brain function by proxy. And so what if we
directly measure brain function using a an MRI while they're
doing those games and tasks? And what we did is we found that the
brain activity associated with impulsivity was incrementally
predictive above those other measures, and it was really
predictive inmates who had low activity, we're up to four and a
half times more likely to reoffend looking out for yours
than inmates that had higher levels of activity. break this
down for me in layman's terms. If you were sitting me down to
do this test right now, what would you tell me? Let's say
that you're going to see a series of letters presented on
the screen to you one at a time, and they're going to come fast
and quickly and every time you see this letter X, I want you to
press the button here, but occasionally there's going to be
the letter K. And when you see the letter K, you're not
supposed to press the button, and it's fast and quick and
you're gonna make mistakes, but you need to keep going as fast
inaccurate as he can. And here we go. Someone who sees the K,
they're not supposed to put the button but they can stay in
control means they're less impulsive and probably less
likely to be a criminal. And you're watching this whole thing
in the brain and what it looks like. Exactly. Exactly, exactly.
Well, aren't there other factors when it comes to criminal
behavior? I mean, I'm thinking drug alcohol abuse, mental
health, I mean, how predictive is impulsivity when it comes to
whether or not someone will commit a crime in future? So
you're absolutely right. There are many factors that go into
identifying the factors associated with risk for
reoffending. And in this study, we did control for the effect of
alcohol and substance abuse, age, education, socio economic
background, and what was interesting was that the
measures of brain function were still incrementally predictive
above and beyond those other measures.
Well, we'll play this jingle before it's crap. It's pretty
crass.
Yeah, I had actually had that clip too.
Oh, really? Yeah.
And I was listening to it goes on. And then we're the guy
finally at the very end of it. He says, Oh, well, you know, we
can't we may it's premature to like use this for any sort of
thing. We just it's information but you can see this coming down
Broadway. Yeah. Oh, and so they end is bogus. I mean, it's the
whole thing is nonsense. I mean, people read, I'd save without
any documentation. I would say the major reason that most
people re commit crimes is because once they're in through
that system and get back into the public, they can't get a job
ever. No. They are completely marginalized as citizens they
can't vote the voting rights taken away many of them it wants
to criminal records under they can never get a job again. And
there you have to resort the crime. This is so phony that the
whole thing is so is such a bunch of bullcrap that
guy that guy that voice creepy guy, I think he was at the
party. You know what I'm saying? Right. Hey, what is the price of
a globulin of gas today?
A globulin? Yeah, we forget what say can you look at it now I can
tell you what it is around here. It's I think it's a moment I'm
sorry. Not I mean, liquid natural gas. I'm talking about
the big stuff that throws through the pipes. The
pipelines? Yeah. Yeah, cuz the end, because well, while you're
looking at it up, Let's scare the people more about nuclear
energy.
Some other news around the company operating the damaged
Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan, says that up to 120 tons
of radioactive water may have leaked into the ground may have
leaked into the ground. A spokesman said the leak had been
detected in one of the tanks used to store water to keep the
reactors cool
me me.
Let's just give you some breaking news about what's
happening in Japan has been reported by news being reported
agencies and nuclear regulate news agencies is that the
cooling system has failed for storage pool of fuel for one of
the reactors at the nuclear plant at Fukushima which was
damaged two years ago. by the tsunami. no immediate danger
according to nuclear regulators,
be afraid breaking news no danger be afraid be afraid.
Breaking news. Breaking news. Will radiation Fukushima No, no,
no, no danger. Be afraid be afraid my
memory is correct. The same thing happened or in a similar
place about two weeks ago as well. The alarm went off
afternoon in reactor number three, when the cause is still
under investigation investigation.
Natural gas is now over 413. Up 4.5%. Did
I not tell you to invest? I told you a big move I told you to
invest. I said it's going up there. It's going to now now
it's been kept down artificially. It's also going to
turn out that we don't have as much as we thought we would. So
this is going to be a bonanza Putin is jacking off as we
speak. Oh, my God, I have a map of it's in the shownotes under
pipelines. Follow the pipes, a map of Russia's pipelines.
That's not even funny. And now and now they did the deal with
the Israelis. So they're doing the the gas from the Leviathan.
I love those. I love the Israelis and the Russians, but
nothing personal dude, not just business. I don't give a crap. I
don't care about any political just, hey, we don't care if
we'll pretend on this side that you're given stuff to Iran, but
just you know, you do the pipeline up to up to Europe from
here. So it's just incredible.
Incredible. Yeah. When I was part of the giant
scanning the giant game that were not a parchment scan.
Yeah. Nothing, no benefit to us. 00 benefit hanging out with all
those rich elites that you're hanging out with you think you
should be able to Oh, oh please something.
No, no, I don't play the game. This is why is like never ever
ever in a million years new. No no no no no that's not gonna
happen. They I was like, um yeah just park around the corner when
we come to your house where you park um, just park around the
corner? Yeah. On the on the not on our street though. Yeah, that
one. Yeah, please.
Hey, did you we did the bird flu report last show. Do you
remember any of this statistics? How many people you know this
new h five and 20 or whatever it is? You remember anything about
that report at all? Any details in your head that are stet
remained a couple people died. What do you remember?
I remember it's the h seven and nine, I believe, a new strain of
bird flu. I think it had killed a man and a woman. And it was
transmitted from bird fowl to human. And it was the start, I
think of a new fear mongering campaign. What do
you have? Yeah, but it seems like I don't know if that's
true. Because the fear mongering campaign parallel to the one in
the United States has different stats in Canada. Oh, which is
another thing I bothers me about the media. I mean, you know,
nobody seems to want to get played the same story. They all
have their own little twist on it. And it's always just like,
This is so different. Listen to this.
new strain of bird flu has proven deadly in China. But just
how much of a risk does the latest virus pose?
The CDC is Kelly Crowe has that story. This is good, John,
because so back to back, I'll play my bird flu report. Which I
believe is a I don't know if it's BBC or if it's us, but I'll
play it right after okay, we can compare. Good. Yeah. It's
happening again.
And influenza virus has jumped the species barrier from birds
to humans. This week, Chinese authorities confirmed at least
16 cases of severe respiratory infection and at least six
deaths six but there is reassuring news so far the virus
does not seem to be good at jumping from person to person.
Okay. 16 Habits six dead. Yes, six and
616 ASOs,
in Shanghai health authorities slaughter 20,000 chickens to
limit the spread of the potentially deadly new flu
strain that appears to be transmitted from birds to
people. cases have occurred over a wide range of southern China.
So it seems many birds are infected. The big fear is that
the virus could spread among people, causing a global
pandemic like the one in 1918. Clearly
a better story that killed 20 to 40
million. But in many ways this is like a
suddenly smoking volcano where we have no idea whether it's
going to go quiet in a couple of weeks and not be heard again,
for many, many years or whether it's going to erupt.
So far the testing is reassuring. Results show almost
no person to person transmission. Other good news,
the Chinese government has been quickly sharing information with
the world. That's a far cry from 10 years ago, when they tried to
hide it outbreak of a different virus called SARS, the spread
around the world sickening 8000 and killing 800 before it died
out.
I love this guy who talks like this. China has really provided
for a model response. It's been timely, it's been comprehensive.
Several countries are now checking travelers for illness,
preparing to have masks and medication in place and
restricting imports of Chinese poultry, the United States
and others. That was abuse of that chicken
are taking the first steps to develop a vaccine. Health
officials say as long as new infections appear, the chances
of a more dangerous mutation persists. They are watching
closely and hoping that doesn't happen.
Okay, so first of all, this is clearly the superior report
because it doesn't mention any of the statistics that we heard
Oh no, why bother not a sink because they're too low. So we
refer back to 1918 which I think was called the was that the
Spanish flu? Spanish flu killed 40 million or so right? So that
has nothing to do with this but okay. And then they talk about a
vaccine which is being developed so this is this is why this
report is far superior, far superior.
Well, I thought I'm gonna pull one out where they came up with
this number two, which is the one that they kept.
Well, that was last week. That was last week. Yeah, well,
maybe now they don't have any numbers. Okay, well, I
better needs number that in get my nation East though. There's
another dozen measles outbreak. Oh, yeah. That's according to
our producers over there. This is on the news everywhere.
Have a quick woods with Sarah who's brought Phoebe along. No,
she was do her vaccination because she's three years and
four months. He decided to do a little
time to shoot some poison into the slave. Lita why
she started school on the 16th. So we just wanted to get in
there early before she starts school. Really?
How worrying has this outbreak been for you
and for the parents? And personally, I don't know anyone
with measles, but I know of people that know people.
Report is this. I know people
who know awful I know people who know of people they didn't.
He doesn't even know people. She knows people who knows of people
and she immediately
takes her little human resource and go stands in line for a
shot.
What an idiot.
I'm sad, is it? It's sad people take it from me know people who
know of people I know people who know of people.
That's called corner gossip.
Boy, I think we've really run the gamut today, John, we've
we've covered a lot of ground. Oh, I did want to mention this.
As you mentioned, gold is in freefall, which went up? Of
course, it went up like 30 bucks. Of course it did. There
was a buying opportunity. However, the Dutch bank, ABN
AMRO has sent out a note to all of its clients and informed them
that their quote, gold investments are no longer
physically deliverable. This isn't as like a typical sign.
It's not good.
I think that's like really bad if the bank says we cannot
deliver your gold physically.
Yeah, means there's no gold to be delivered. Well, it also
means you like some tungsten instead.
But doesn't that mean like the whole gold market is now votive?
He's always Bogut. If I think the Fort Knox thing somebody
explained, I think still is maybe you're the one that came
up with the idea that people want to see their investments.
And you know, they want to see their gold that we store in Fort
Knox because we stole a lot of gold. And so you take him down
there. And yeah, you shoot at Germany's coming in. guy runs
down and changes all the signs that Germany?
No, it's like those license plates that John James Bond has
like, yeah, just flips over to Germany, Germany, the Queen's
coming? Yeah. Okay. Finally then. And this. I just thought
this was kind of funny. So remember, on Thursday, we talked
about the Rewards for Justice program, has now released or has
now put up $5 million that can lead to the capture or arrest of
Joseph Kony. Right of the Lord's Resistance Army, the guy whose
Kony video, ha, man, whatever happened, that guy, the guy
freaked out and ran around naked. And then Joe.
Remember the guy who made the Kony video running around naked.
The giant voice system told them to go run around naked and jerk
off. That was cool. We need more news stories like that. So so so
we were like, Why did this happen? Well, as it turns out,
I'm reading the BBC story here. Joseph Kony tops the list of
alleged war criminals wanted by the International Criminal
Court. However, Uganda has put the hunt for leader Kony on
hold. The decision was not ours, but came from the African Union.
We do with the African Union says if it tells us to pull our
troops or say we should continue the operation, then we obey
military operations carried out with the US member we sent over
like 150 consultants. Remember that? Yeah. Also been been
pulled back stopped. They're no longer searching for him. So
instead of searching for him, we've put up a $5 million award.
Ah, so what do
you make of that? Well,
obviously, the guy doesn't even exist anymore. I think we need
to have some new VLANs or something and we this is like a
tying up a loose end. For maybe the because, you know, they were
in there going into Congo. Maybe the we're not, you know, maybe
we're not going to invade that country right now. Maybe it's
another one. We have to come up with a different guy. But But
Kony, for all intents and purposes, Kony is dead. But I
find it kind of interesting that you know, where's the video now?
Where's the big outrage over that President Obama is pulling
back his his troops that he authorized personally through
executive order, they could go in and go get him clean him up.
In fact, let me get one. This will be worth it. Probably. Let
me just see what we I know we had a clip But President Obama
talking about Comey and how important it was that we got
this guy. Someone's gotta call him out on this. It's too bad.
Jake Tapper went to CNN. Because you knew, you know, Jake would
do it.
Yeah, it's a shame.
I don't even see Kony stuff anymore. Crap. Well, I guess
I'll have to look for it for for Thursday show. I don't have it.
Kony goes away here GPS click Well, that's right. Oh, man, we
had Clooney talking about Coney Angelina Jolie talking about
Coney the coney mission. Wow, this was such a big deal. And
where's everybody? Now? Hold on a second. Here's here's Clooney.
Let me ask you about another Coney. This video that's come
out by now I don't know 250 million, even more people and
watch your movies. Do you think that ultimately will make a
difference? Because you've you tried to focus your activism in
