How do you gotta have a positive attitude? Adam curry, John C.
Dvorak.
Sunday, October 5 2014. Time for your Gitmo nation media
assassination episode 658. This is no agenda. Proudly
broadcasting from FEMA Region six in the indispensable nation
from the capital, the drone, sorry state Austin, Texas in the
morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry,
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's become an oven.
Classic California summer in October. I'm John C. Dvorak
scale is complaining about the weather at the beginning of the
show.
It's what we do on the eighth and then the sixth
is to
its traffic and weather on the sixth. Don't do anything on the
sixes, nothing to do anything on the sixes. I'm watching a guy
now on CNN. He's part of the NBC freelance camera crew of which
the cameraman as he bola this guy is on Skype. And he's, he's
he's coming in from Ebola quarantine. That's pretty funny.
Oh, he's escaping from Ebola quarantine. He's
in a hotel room, so he's been quarantined from Ebola.
They're feeding the guy. Oh, man,
this is great. Well, it's getting funnier. Yeah, the Ebola
thing is fantastic.
They had the guy in the other story was the guy in Newark at
the Newark Airport.
Oh, so the guy pukes on the plane. It never happens.
Yeah, no, that's never happened ever.
And immediately, let me see I think I have a I have a clip of
that somewhere. Hold on a second. It didn't necessarily
mean to start off that way. But at least start off the way we
start is true. Here it is. Yeah, this was the fox fear porn
version of it very funny.
for you right now you're taking a look at a live picture of
Newark Liberty International Airport
live picture because you know, this is really important. And
that flight
is United Flight United that just arrived from Brussels of
his flight 998. And it is being held right now. They're on the
tarmac because they say there's a sick passenger on Brussels Of
course, the same airport that Thomas Duncan used to board his
flight to fly to Dallas. Critical Condition with Ebola
does say confirming there is an ill passenger on board but they
don't know yet. If he does have Ebola, who cares are now
waiting, they say for years for your friend troll to arrive at
the airport and analyze that passenger keeping everybody on
board isolate the moment and indication of what we're facing
as these flights arrive in the country from abroad. Scary and
wretched and miserable. It is gross.
Yeah, Ebola.
Now I listened to a report. I didn't clip it. But I released a
report with one of the passengers actually not one of
the passenger. But the guy sitting
next to this guy. Oh, he must be in quarantine now. Well, here's
he told the story says he says and now that I remember pretty
clearly. He says first of all, they let everybody off to plan
except for rows, four rows forward and back of this guy. On
the same side. They kept all those people. So it's like, I
guess it was two and two or something over long there. And
it would be like, you know, 2468, about 12 People kept on
the plane and let everyone else go. And then they decided dues.
The check this they brought this guy off, or they kind of put
them in the back. And then they were gonna bring him off. They
let these other guys go. They let him go through check through
a guy and the guy bragged about having the Global Entry. Global
NGOs rejected almost lead almost about to leave the
airport good way to get your global entry card revoked. It
goes left
the airport and then they they commandeered the people around
this character, the puker and kept him in the airport. And
they are they took him out with the plane no matter what
everyone else says this guy has a really good account of it. He
says and then they kept us there for two or three hours for that
he was shocked about that, because there was there was
nothing going on. And then they let them all go.
Well, most of the cases. And we've I think we've now upped it
to 15 or 20. The Ebola reports in United States all of them, of
course, are false alarms. And it's it's interesting. I've been
reading up on this a little bit now of course, I still maintain
that this is nothing more than a reason to have combat troops in
these countries in West Africa, which have traditionally you
know, the West have we got blood diamonds, we've got internal
continuous internal strife regime changes all the time. And
of course, all the new oil in the past or not all but at least
a third of all the new oil has been found in West Africa. And
we're now in there and it's a perfect way to know to strangle
these countries and the IMF is now coming in with emergency
loans. It's the new version of the economic hitman. Wow, that
doesn't sound good John oatmeal. Now this fight being from
Brussels was interesting. As I read, I was reading the only
bring it up here. This is from the EU from the CDC, the
European Centre for Disease and prevention control. So we're so
incredibly worried about potential case of puking coming
in from Brussels from Belgium. And but this kind of went
unreported. And this is from September 13, an accidental
release of 45 litres of concentrated life poliovirus
solution into the environment in Belgium. Did you know about
this? Wow, this is a great catch, as reported by the east
side if something like this happen? Well, I'm going to say
it's human error, as reported by the European Centre for Disease
and prevention control, which is an official EU entity by Belgian
authorities on September 2 2014. Following a human error 45
litres of concentrated live poliovirus solution were
released into the environment by the pharmaceutical company
GlaxoSmithKline. In Ericsson Smart City, Belgium, the liquid
was conducted directly to a water treatment plant and
released after treatment in the river. Last night, I flew into a
river dial which is affluent of the s couch site River.
Belgium's High Council public health conducted a risk
assessment risk assessment that concluded that the risk of
infection for the population exposed to the contaminated
water is extremely low due to the high level of dilution and
the high vaccination coverage, which is really the the clue the
vaccination coverage ECD sees assessment is that the
accidental release in the environment of large amounts of
life poliovirus represents a risk to public health, if
susceptible populations, such as areas with low polio vaccine
coverage are exposed to contaminated waters or mud.
That's one way to get rid of some of the Muslims over there.
I'm telling you. How does that happen? 45 Leo who sorry, I
didn't want to deal with this stuff. Bill.
Why did they have it in the first place? Why does
GlaxoSmithKline let
someone was asking when they found a bill? What is all this
bottle says polio liquid?
I don't know flushing down the toilet.
I don't know it's dumping.
But no one you don't hear anyone. That's a reason to be a
bit worried, of course only think only if you're not
vaccinated against polio. And then I was reading about the
National Center for Medical intelligence. So this is an it's
a part of the let me see I believe as a part of DOD, but it
also has direct reporting lines to department, the Defense
Intelligence Agency, and the Armed Forces Medical
Intelligence Center. And these guys are supposed to oversee I
presume some of these people are now in in West Africa. And guess
where they are based?
Well, I would if I wouldn't have a real joke. guess it'd be Zook
that I'm sure it's not for Dietrich. Oh, for Dietrich. Oh
my God, those guys. This
is where we believe it came from this whole.
It was it where it was invented. Yeah.
So interesting things popping up. Now just to put some more
fear. Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the troublemaker
Nation of Islam. Let's see if I have the exact quote. The deadly
disease ravaging parts of Africa and now diagnosed on American
soil has been designed by white scientists specifically to kill
off blacks.
But that's a stereotypical response from him.
Yeah, there's nothing nothing wrong with that. Let me see this
is. And then whenever you have a crisis like this, why let it go
two ways. You can use this for so many things you could use it
for. Here's an idea, kid, you could say. I didn't do my
homework, because you know, my grandmother has Ebola. We, we
all had to go into quarantine. You can use it for a lot of
different things like what's Charlie Rose and his CBS
reported there. The other morning, we have the Ebola
virus in Africa. And we now have this virus what's going on?
Well, the
world is flat, is that you know, right now, anybody can get on a
plane and end up anywhere in this country and spread these
viruses, and we have to be aware of it. We don't know exactly why
there was a dramatic spread this year. But something is happening
now. We have multiple viruses and together with good Global
Climate Change, things are changing the virus world we have
to pay attention.
Of course, it's climate change. That's obvious. It's so obvious.
How can I think otherwise? Now, I'm always looking for reasons
to, obviously to put some meat behind my theory that this is
really about getting a foothold in, in West Africa with, with
actual soldiers. And I'm also hearing this global health
security thing, and I'm hearing more and more about, they don't
have a health care system, but I'm almost wondering if Obama
Care is going to be exported to Africa. You know, there's,
there's something afoot
is way. Yes. There's far too many stories about the health
care system used in those terms. Yes. In these areas. Oh, the
health care system, the healthcare system. It's
collapsing. It doesn't exist anymore.
Here is the health care system. This was an interesting piece of
video. This is in Monrovia, at the ABC reporter does not have a
garbage outfit on because these are not hazmat suits. I want
everyone to realize what you're seeing on television. When
there's a ski mask that you you've enacts. I think that's
what it is. That's on the band. These are, these are ski
goggles. Okay, this is not a hazmat suit. That's a rain
slicker. And God knows where the hundreds of billions of dollars
are that were supposedly or hundreds of millions, but I
think we're close to billions that we're sending over there.
That crap 3000 People 3000 combat troops alone is $10
million dollars a day. It's just crazy. So this guy doesn't have
any he just has a shirt on. He's standing maybe 10 yards away
from the action of well, you'll hear it in this report. This was
very strange.
Here in the street of Monrovia there's a body here. Maybe
Ebola, maybe something else. But the burial team has come there.
They're busy spraying down the area where the person is they're
gonna wrap in plastic and take away. But I was talking to
someone in the community and they had someone sick here
yesterday. They didn't think it was Ebola, they thought it was
something else and they call for help. And no one came, they
called again and no one came. And not until the he died a 37
year old man, not until he died. Did they come and then they
called and within one hour, the burial team is here. So he's
still on the street. You've seen these guys behind them two guys
picking up this corpse, which is has some rags over it. And by
the way, none of these people who are dead on the street, none
of them have boilers that are exploding blood. I don't see any
of that I see no evidence of of what Ebola should look like, on
a on a on a dead person. Because you should have boils and
leaking sores and shipping,
bleeding and none of this.
This is a place right now where if you dive Ebola, they're very
quick for you. If you're living in you need help. There's really
nowhere to go.
This is interesting. If you die, they're quick to help you. But
if if you're sick, then there's really nowhere to go. How does
this make any sense? Right? But here comes the big reveal.
He's not dead. He's not dead. He's not dead. They were
wrapping him up to take him away. But He's alive. He's
moving his arm. They almost took him away to the crematorium. And
they notice he's moving his arm. I don't know where they can take
him. There are no hospitals to treat him. Now the first
responders The ambulance is here. They're trying to get them
to stop to take him and to somewhere where he can get some
care. Yeah, so this guy, all of it. So they're wrapping him up.
In his hands. He
fights on you're watching.
Yeah. And then it's not your dad and his hand starts moving.
Yeah, come on.
This isn't happening.
This is getting ridiculous. And you see it's not like legions of
bloody goo dripping off of it. I'm highly skeptical. And when
you listen to the here's Erin Burnett on the CNN with her
friend that just shooting the breeze about how none of this is
working. And none of this is fitting together. None of the
precautionary measures seem to be in place. And they're
wondering why and I'm thinking to myself himself, it's because
it's bull crap. None of this is really true.
You know, several things have gone wrong and two of them
they've attempted to fix them because CNN brought it to their
to the authorities attention, which is a little disconcerting.
They didn't sort of do something on their own. First of all the
sheets and towels that you mentioned that were soiled. You
know once we put that on air all of a sudden the CDC says okay,
we're gonna go
this is about the guy in Texas, where the where he was staying
and he I guess he puked on these blankets. And then you know, the
and CNN said, hey, who were wearing the blankets, who
cleaned all that up to quarantine them and the
authorities go, Oh,
we got a medical contractor all lined up, though, as you said,
so far that hasn't happened. But why did it take CNN, you know,
going on the air and saying that this was a problem. The other
one, Aaron is somebody that was reported first, on your show on
Tuesday night, I said, Hey, I just came back from Liberia a
couple of days ago, and nobody asked me anything. He asked me,
were you exposed to an Ebola patient? He asked me, you know
what, exactly, exactly. I saw
stop. John, before we continue with this show. I need to know.
Where are you exposed to an Ebola patient? Not that I know
of okay, then we're good to go
on what exactly I was doing there. I wasn't told what
symptoms I should be watching out for, even though this has
been known to have been an issue for months and months now. And
then all of a sudden the Customs and Border Patrol people say
yesterday, hey, we've got a pamphlet and we're going to
start handing this out. And I think we're gonna Why does it
take us going on television saying these things to have
action taking your suit? Have you sort of are wondering what's
going on what is up with this?
It is pretty frightening in our understanding at this point,
Elizabeth, right, is that they have not been we're finding out
right now. CNN had reported those soiled sheets and towels.
Were there. I think six or seven hours ago, they said they're
sending someone and now we're hearing from the father of one
of the children in that apartment that he said 40
minutes ago, they they're still there.
Right? I mean, I've definitely talked to some experts who say,
you know, let's public health time is sometimes a little bit
slower, then you know that on the ground time, then there's
sort of this feeling of, you know, when this kind of thing is
happening. They just need to move much more quickly than they
usually do.
Aaron Newsflash, it's all bull crap, girl. That's why this.
This is real. Video, people look at me like I'm like, I'm on fire
when I say these things.
Well, you know, there's your I think you're on the side of the
evidence. Thank you. And of course, the CNN folks. And I use
the word folks. Yes. They don't you know, they're actually part
of the problem there. They deliver the bad news. And then
once in a while when they actually look into it. Yeah,
that hey, wait a minute. They discovered this and they get all
panicky because they actually did their job once
the reporting from the Wall Street Journal back off, by the
way. Oh, yeah. Of course. Reporting from the Wall Street
Journal regarding the how this this gentleman could go to the
hospital then be sent away. But even who asked for any call me
in the morning? Yeah, you know, you know what their answer is?
It's the standard answer these days. And of course, the Wall
Street Journal does not just says, Oh, okay. I'll read you
the relevant paragraph from their article. Texas Health
Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas said it has determined that it
failed to detain mr. Duncan when he initially sought care on the
night of September 25. Because his travel history wasn't
relayed to doctors due to a records glitch. And, you know,
once someone says it's a glitch back off, bitches don't ask
questions. It's a glitch. I find it reprehensible that
journalists do not are the journalists except this as an
excuse you did. I know I know I've been doing it I'm It's
okay.
We can live with it. For those who are aware self awareness is
the key. I'm thinking that there's a couple of things that
come to mind one is the is the push toward greater record
keeping. I mean, that record story is like well, let's spend
another billion dollars on because like you said, when you
went to your Global Entry, computer bull crap, bull crap
that just wasn't obviously wasn't, didn't have time to
check anything. Nope. Took a picture of your gut.
You know, to be honest, it got my chin, got a little bit of my
chin
as she sent me that thing you put in the next newsletter.
Okay, I got a big piece of your chin and then most of you
because you're too tall for the camera. And doesn't tell you to,
you know, line up with anything. There's no feedback monitor says
put your face in the square. Oh, I
got it. I got an update. So when Mickey came in to the Global
Entry and she came in Los Angeles, she initially it said
she had a big X on her printout ticket that said no entry. When
she did the Global Entry, and then she took that ticket. Then
then the guy that I had in New York, the coyotes, leisurely
leaning back. He took it from her and went and he just crossed
it out and said, Okay, you're good to go. You'll have no
problem. Yes, that's
yeah, he looked at the only reason you do that if you were
if you were in the position. That guy is because they did
just randomly coming through with that EQ I think so too. So
the guy sees another one and he goes oh god I wish they'd fix
this thing and then they exit off in the end you go oh good
shows of course the whole system is flawed completely completely.
So yes theaters they gotta you know, yeah, it's just a shame
that
just just a couple more things on on Ebola that I've just been
collecting stuff all of this in the show notes at 658 dot no
agenda notes.com from the official World Health
Organization, Ebola fact sheet, quote, and they have a different
name for it e v d, which is Ebola viral disorder or disease,
I think it is better be dizzy. Quote can be, quote, it can be
difficult to distinguish EBD from other infectious diseases
such as malaria, typhoid fever and meningitis.
Yeah. Did you know Clooney had malaria and just, you know,
yeah, he went to South Sudan and one of his little John's,
with with his buddy from the New York Times. Yeah, that
Prendergast, you
know, the Prendergast handler? Yeah, his handler, who's been
swapped out for the new handler, the Oh, yeah. And she's much
more attractive. Although, she gets to watch him. 24/7. Yeah.
I don't know if he has sex with her or not.
Well, I have something coming up in the next newsletter. That
will frighten everybody and I hope people get on the
subscription list. You
can. It's always on the front page of the show. Notes. Teaser.
Oh, nice. Did you anyway, Mickey sent you a note about the
newsletter?
Yeah, she thought it was very aesthetically pleasing to her
when she's an artist. Yes, but this is good. This is I find
that a high compliment.
It is a high compliment for the newsletter, but I want to remind
her and you and everyone in between is that aesthetics does
not sell chickens. Thank you. Most of the people it isn't
overlooked aspect is when I people out there a small
business and they always want to get an advertiser and they end
up getting some guys wins a lot of awards. That doesn't mean
it's advertising is any good actually. looks. It looks pretty
it wins awards, but yeah, didn't sell anything. Yeah, it was
nice.
Okay. Couple more just to wind up Ebola. And again, I'm only
I'm only seeing evidence that this is. We are in West Africa
with 3000 troops. That's more apparently. Then we have sent to
then advisors we have sent to help combat ISIL. So you tell me
what's going on with that. Here are the notes that I'm
receiving? We have one of our Dallas producers, my accountant
friends in Dallas telling me their friends in Deloitte risk
management. Have an Ebola vaccine on their books. Right.
That was somebody tweeted the picture the vaccine. Yeah. Then
they said coincidence.
Yeah. But for that to be from Deloitte risk management is
interesting. I have
it'd be a bonanza definitely for people traveling to and from
Africa.
Yep. dogs eating corpses of Ebola victims in Liberia.
I like that. Like you do.
Don't pet the dogs.
No, no, I don't want to pet a dog. They spin Ebola eyes and
what else do we rarely dogs can carry Ebola, supposedly. Oh,
yeah. My bats and bats and dogs
and I think that is oh no, I had to
get a zombie story. Confirmed.
What's that? No, what's this?
That's a bunch of YouTube videos my daughter knew about this is
dairy. Everybody seems to be in the millennial group their their
their access to news feeds is limited to YouTube and Buzzfeed,
YouTube BuzzFeed and Facebook right and so they get all the
news from from this the sources and is strange to hear what the
news was in the zombie story which everybody which apparently
was a known hoax. But the way it's always presented. Yeah,
there have been three Ebola patients that have apparently
gotten up after being dead. Yeah, no, I did hear about that.
Yeah, it is reconfirmed contract. Back.
Here is a follow up on the vaccine for Ebola story. I think
this might be from CBC I've got a couple of good things from the
Canadian Broadcasting this for the show.
We've been asking the Public Health Agency of Canada for
months what it got from the two companies that had sold the
commercial licensing rights to for the experimental vaccine and
the experimental drug Z map.
This is interesting. From everything I've seen, there is a
patent on Ebola itself, which is owned by the United States
government. They You've seen this right?
Yes. And it's independent.
It's in the penetrator. Yeah. So that is interesting by itself.
But now I'm hearing in Canada. Apparently the Canadian
government owned the rights to the vaccine Z map, which I
thought was an American vaccine at least has been presented that
way.
It's thought it was a cure, not a vaccine.
Did she say vaccine or cure? Let me think,
you know, the problem we're having today because of the
media being idiots. And again, going along with the program
regarding what's a vaccine, thus, you can have a quit
smoking vaccine, right? Yep. And let's use the word right. And
yeah, that's okay. That's good. But you can use it, you know,
you can show the vaccine cures and vaccines have somehow now
been intermingled somehow. Right. Right. Right. And I'm,
you know, I think in an earlier era, if we had already been
along these lines, we would probably be calling penicillin a
vaccine. We've been
asking the Public Health Agency of Canada for months what it got
from the two companies that it sold the commercial licensing
rights to, for the experimental vaccine, experimental drug Z
map.
Okay, so this experimental drug wanted to
know if candidate still has any voice in the development and
dissemination of the treatments. We got back email saying the
contract is confidential. Canada still owns the patent and the
intellectual property that's now being questioned by scientists
around the world who are waiting to do clinical trials on the
vaccine. This Berlin based journalist wrote the article,
the scientists I talked to are unhappy, they feel it could have
gone faster, who is in control of this process.
Everyone figured this outbreak would be long over before a
vaccine could be developed. But with the number of Ebola cases
doubling every three weeks, and scientists around the world
saying it's out of control, the need for a vaccine is growing.
Meanwhile, up to 1000 doses are in cold storage here at the
National microbiology lab in Winnipeg.
I do wonder whether it isn't possible to somehow cut through
all that red tape and try to help get the vaccine on the road
really, as fast as possible.
They report that African trials of this Canadian vaccine have in
fact been delayed, not because of logistical problems, but over
an intellectual property dispute. The company that owns
the commercial license for the drug is said to be dragging its
feet with 1000s of lives at risk. Can the Minister of Health
explain what Canada is doing?
The only answer Otto is given so far is that all of this is in
the hands of the World Health Organization. Oh,
oh, it was cloud.
Well, then, then we know what time it is. And then everyone
across this, this interesting article from the Journal of
pineal research, and maybe that's pineal, PIO, pineal P I N
E A L. Yeah, pineal research. It looks like an official thing. An
abstract the purpose of this report is to emphasize the
potential utility for the use of melatonin in the treatment of
individuals who are infected with the Ebola virus. The
pathological changes associated with an Ebola infection
infection include, most notably endothelial the length of
disruption. Yeah, you know, I feel I tried to pronounce a
Dutch name. Yeah, that's right.
disseminated intravascular coagulation and multiple organ
hemorrhage. Yeah, that's, that's not good. Melatonin has been
shown to target these alterations. Numerous
similarities between the Ebola virus infection and septic shock
have recognized for more than it had been recognized for more
than a decade. Moreover, melatonin has been successfully
employed for the treatment of sepsis in many experimental and
clinical studies. Based on these factors since the number of
treatments currently available is limited to the end the usable
products are not abundant. The use of melatonin for the
treatment of Ebola virus infection is encouraged.
Additionally, melatonin has a high safety profile is readily
available and can be orally self administered. Thus, the use of
melatonin is compatible with the large scale of this serious
outbreak. Well, how about that? I'm looking at a paper now we
can sell melatonin pills.
Well, I'm sure that the melatonin pills sellers are
already all over this. Right?
was real. The I'm getting masks for my family and melatonin
pills.
Took me a while sorry, you do your imitation of the of the
pill cellar, or the seed cellar?
not apparent.
It's not apparent it really needs a lot of work.
No, I know it does. While you're looking at I'll play my final
little ditty here. This is the it is National Cybersecurity
Awareness Month as we know, which comes every month every
year in October. The end and I don't know how this happened I
think this was this must have been Fox. This never let a good
crisis go to waste to come in and promote your bull crap
company. How does this even happen that this guy can get on
the show that and it was an eight or nine minute segment
which I cut down to be able to promote his bull crab based on
Ebola.
Well, this starts National Cybersecurity Awareness Month.
And we have a really interesting story. Our guests here, Gary
milewski, is with the company's Snoop wall.
Guest Snoop wall.
Already, my ears are perking up. Okay, let's see what this guy is
about.
Thanks for being here. It's an interesting and alarming story
that you have about this study.
I think this is bigger than Ebola right now, because 500
million people are infected and they don't know it.
Oh, what 500 million people and infected don't even know how
we're gonna be we're gonna be we're gonna be what could it be?
Maybe we're both infected. I'm riveted and I'm listening.
But it's not them. It's their smartphones or
so it tells me the breakdown. How does this how break it down
for me break it down.
So let me give you an example show. If you went to the
hardware store, you'd buy a flashlight,
I hope but let's just let's assimilate this information. We
go to the hardware store. We buy a flashlight. Are you with me?
Yeah, I
got one here in front of me. All right. This is I have the
flashlight at the ready. Okay, good.
Good, then you're on
par with the story. And you turn it on and you use it to find
your car keys at night or to do some work.
Why don't you just turn on the lights?
Like using it for some work? Honey, can I have the flashlight
I need to do some work? I
just saw the cries. I want to use a flashlight.
We've all installed a flashlight app on our phone.
Ah, have you installed the flashlight app on your phone?
John?
Yes, this is the app that you put on and then just goes up
image tips like 1000s of these apps. The
flashlight exactly exact and instead of being a normal
flashlight, when you hit the on button. This flashlight app is
kind of like a real flashlight from the hardware store. Except
it was made by Mr. Gadget, and it opens up is yours
made by Mr. Gadget.
No, Mr. Gadget,
sure it's your gadget.
And it opens up and it says bread. Can I have your name,
address credit cards, bank account information to have
family? Did it ask you for all this information, no photos
videos, where you're located right now and all your friends
and contacts? And can I send that out over this little
satellite dish attach the flashlight, you probably
wouldn't buy that flashlight. You know,
when it comes to the curry Devora Consulting Group. When we
look at metaphors for explaining things in the media, the idea of
a flashlight with a little satellite dish is a bit of a
stretch. I'm not sure you want to use that and
you wouldn't hit the on switch. But that's what's happening.
That's what's happening. Yes, the top 10 Flashlight apps today
that you can download from the Google Play Store. Are all
malware. Malicious. They're spying they're snooping, and
they're stealing
data.
What are they stealing
your all your credit card information?
I don't have credit card information on my smartphone.
What idiot it would do that.
So where does that information go? What happened?
Where do you think it goes? John? This being Cybersecurity
Awareness
Month to the Ukraine. Now come on,
give me three countries.
Okay, Bulgaria
Think big. Think big. Think big. Russia. Yeah, that's one China.
That's two.
And the third one would be I don't know.
So I've been tracking down where it goes. And I found three
countries so far. China, India, and Russia.
These people for real
are out to get these guys
and they use it for various purposes. I guess.
You know, ya know, various purposes.
They use it pretty much it seems for criminal purposes. But if a
nation state wants to collect a lot of information on American
police, this is a great way to do it because everybody installs
a flashlight.
That's right. Wow,
what a fantastic good discovery this guy's made I'm glad he's on
Fox telling us
us stupid Americans. We all install a flashlight out. So So
what do you tell people Brett Brett is having so much
difficulty with the storm. So what do we tell people with this
information?
Don't install flashlight apps period.
That would be a good start. Brett,
you in some cases, you actually have to not only uninstall it
but you have to factory reset your phone. They installed
Trojans,
Trojans.
When you uninstall some of these flashlight apps, the Trojans are
still installed waiting to run an app operate in the background
while you're doing important things like banking important
while
important things like mobile banking. Oh, please. Yeah, I
have to.
So this guy got on as it part of the Ebola.
Yes, yes to promote his to promote his company.
They should have shot him this has got to be easy either paid
is native advertising bubbly, or is the producer of the show is a
moron?
Yes to all the above. Did you finally read Harrison Bergeron?
No, I didn't have time. I was too busy.
I got good news for you. You don't have to read it. Now why
there is a movie coming out. Based on this short No wonder
you found out about it. No, I just found out about the movie.
No, I'm just saying you got the story in front of in front of
the movie and next thing you know after promoting
I was duped. I was do Gillis do well it gets better. It's the
motion picture will be named 2081 which is the year that the
story was set by Kurt Vonnegut. Okay, stars James Cosmo have no
idea who that is Julie Julie Haggerty and guess who is the
executive producer and who paid for it
Clooney
Elizabeth Koch is the executive producer funny is that I got
duped by the Koch brothers
it did well everybody. Brothers that's why they're so notorious.
The story was the story from from Vonnegut is still a good
story. And it's finally equal.com is the website for the
for the you can see the trailer it's it looks dynamite I mean
really looks beautiful. Looks like it looks like a real movie.
Well of course it's it's our buddies there How come we don't
get any coke brother cash
okay, because there'll be above above any the fray
don't care about the fray quick note that I don't know if you
got that. We were talking about the United one of our producers
as Sir upper Decker. Right and we both assumed this was about
baseball.
I didn't I just said it was about baseball I didn't assume
anything.
Oh Did you know there's not that there's a a an urban meaning to
this upper Decker.
No, but wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't a sex thing and number
of
people set me straight on this Thursday show United gentlemen
as Sir upper Decker, you and John assume that he was
referring to seating in a stadium. However, it is widely
known under a different meaning. Apparently not to old fogies
like you and me, John, what are we are stupid.
Well, everything can be a sexual thing. I mean, I could have also
said it was the upper deck of a 747 That guy likes to fly
business class. Why?
Why are you saying it's a set out there? I
didn't know why he's calling himself. Why are you saying it's
a sexual? I
didn't say it's a sexual thing.
I am. I'm saying it's a sex thing now. No, I know what it
means. You do know. I have no idea.
And upper Decker is when you remove the lid off the toilet
tank and poop inside the tank and replace the lid. Not long
after said poop becomes putrid and very foul a good prank to
pull on someone you're not too fond of green praying. They
flush the toilet. This is not funny. This is lame. Is this in
America? is sick? Is this what we do in the indispensable
nation known as America? Is this what we're all about?
I can say this much. The two farts that do this show. Don't
know about it because we come from a more civilized era would
have thought of such a crazy idea. Well, only in the kid. The
concept then was to get a good cube of probably like a say a
square inch cube of metallic sodium and flush it down the
toilet.
Well we did cherry bombs down the toilet
with Cherry Bomb is a compare and don't compare to what a cube
of sodium metal can do. You flush it down the toilet gets
pretty far down and it just blows up the entire sewer system
throws crap and everything out of all the toilets and makes a
complete mess. That's the kind of thing we used to do we
believe same crapping in the upper deck.
I can't believe someone came up with that. How pathetic is that?
Well, and then it caught on.
And it has a name and we got duped again. Again. We got
duped. They're pooping in our toilet. They're making us
promote their movies. But yes, ladies and gentlemen only in the
indispensable nation. Will you see people being upper Deckers
it gave me an idea For a product that somebody removes the lid of
the toilet and an alarm goes off. Okay? Now it stopped them.
I want to mention something about Ebola before we get
completely off of it, which is just a slight prediction.
Okay, right. Is this a red Booker?
Yeah, I'm perfect. I'm putting a proper thing around it right now
people people if you knew about this, you need to be ashamed of
yourself. But about Uber Decker Do you? Is there anyone who has
actually either a done this or had this done to them
in our audience what are you kidding me? Course? Wow. All
right, here we go. It's not funny. No, it's it's
it's sick. Particularly in the Netherlands. You can't even do
it because they're flush tanks are a ceiling. That was probably
the
reason maybe this was back in time. When somebody that began
in the 20s in the tank way up in the air.
Hey, Hans. Hans, we can't let you can't let them do a bit
pooping and upper deck. We have to put it upstairs. That was my
German Dutchman. I don't know what happened there.
I don't know their workouts. All right. What's your prediction?
What's your Ebola prediction? No one here.
homeless person found with Ebola. Oh, yeah. Good one. And
now you gotta we're looking for his dog or something. And the
next thing you know the homeless out to be rounded up. Oh, I
mean, the whole thing is you got
this John. Oh, boy. Hold on a second. Wow, this just changes
something. Let me go to search.na shownotes.com this was
exec Q Tiv. Order,
man.
What was the executive order? I'm trying to define it in the
show notes where the president changed the rules on what can
happen with people who have a contagious disease Come on. We
talked about this is justice Ebola
I don't have the number at the top of my head to my mind.
Let me see I'm looking at to the show here revised list of
quarantine herbal communicable diseases this I think this was
the executive order let me read it. God this search on any show
notes is so good. This is by the order vested in me I hereby
order amendment executive order 13 to nine or five based on the
recommendations of the recommendation to the Secretary
of Health and Human Services. Okay, further amended, here we
go Severe Acute Respiratory syndromes which are diseases
that are associated with fever and signs and symptoms of
pneumonia and other respiratory illness are capable of being
transmitted Okay, buh, buh, bah. Okay, um, that are either that
either are causing or have the potential to cause a pandemic or
upon infection are highly likely to cause mortality or serious
morbidity if not properly controlled. That's a bola yes
general provisions and then we crab then we have to go into the
other executive order I think what this was is as as we
reviewed this, that I guess have to go to 13 to nine or five then
and I believe this is the right to just pick you up and you're
right so this would fit right in with with cleaning the homeless
up off the street, which is one way to do it.
Yeah, just put them all in quarantine and then kill them.
Let me see hereby ordered as follows. Here we go. So I went
to the 2003. And this of course, was an executive order put into
place based on SARS at the time and Constitution the Surgeon
General and then purposes of a conditioner Okay. communicable
diseases for regulations providing for the apprehension,
detention or conditional release of individuals to prevent the
introduction transmission or spread of suspected communicable
diseases. And Ebola was functionally added to it with
that wording apprehension detention or conditional
release. This is in the in the Lisbon Treaty, which is viewed
as the replacement for the European concept constitution.
In the protocols, it specifically states if you have
a communicable disease, you can be detained and apprehended and
detained indefinitely detained. So this right is now worldwide.
It's a good idea.
San Francisco they like to grab the homeless and then they ship
him I think over to Richmond or FEMA camps, man. Well, yeah, but
right now they're just practicing busing them out of
the town.
Yeah, in the Google bus. That's what that's all about.
A bell this bus stinks where they're hauling this thing
Crazy. Okay. And as I was I did a lot of this basic poking
around.
Well, I Okay. All right,
and well this is a two part video. Oh, maybe we should just
for one second. thank a couple
Wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on I said you were gonna say what I
was going to say in the morning out you're gonna say I'm sorry,

Michael Jed who I do not believe has had a piece of art chosen
previously. Now this was an evergreen we went back. This is
what happened sometimes there were tons of submissions, and
none of them hit the mark Rancho right yeah. 4657
So then we dig through the Evergreen. I went to all the way
to page 667 or eight Yeah, yeah, eight maybe. Yeah, we're digging
all over the place to come up with this in some way. Yeah,
that guy not might not even be a listener anymore.
He may be dead. He may maybe, bola knows. Sadly, we lost
Michael due to Ebola, but we honor him with his artwork, and
no agenda art generator.com is where you can find all of the
artwork submitted for every single program is a big part of
our success. And no bad art is bad donations. We know that for
sure.
Yes. Well, that must mean that the last art from whoever it was
was not good hitting the mark although we do you have a couple
of interesting donations. And by the way, I want to remind
there's somebody out there that sent in a how I did it again. I

I try. Yeah. I think they are Thinking encourages our Grand
Duke to remember us.
Yeah, this useful I think is a good good idea. So fully,
actually got 345671 of your favorite numbers. It absolutely
says it's one of my favorite numbers in his note, but he was
more concerned a dozen ideas and really have a note to read. But
he but he was concerned because he got he was randomly selected
by the Pay Pal police.
I saw something else happened first. Because he had I believe
he donated and in his note, he said this is for I think was for
a dame Angeles son. This is a producer in Vegas when he was in
Vegas. And then he made a donation in her son's name.
I think that could be I can't find that note. Well, I was on
some back.
So back talk emails. And then pay pal said oh, you know, we
have to do in in accordance with anti terrorism laws. We have to
check something can you give us and then the kids name? His his
birth date? I mean, how insane has this become? It's insane.
Yeah, this is yeah, I have to now do this. Otherwise, you must
have the node must have flagged something. You know, the little
box that you put in the instruction box, which where
people put the notes? Yeah, I believe they have it there.
Jose Gonzalez of Las Vegas. Um, so he he's, please credit the
enclosed donation towards the knighthood of Jose Gonzalez of
lost wages lost lost wages. I think he is related to Dame
Angela. I'm not sure. Then I see this emails have been the email
from eBay is saying please identify who Jose is, but it's
not going to Jose. It's going to us. So it was like, I read code.
Oh, Jose.
Gonzalez. Vegas means we bombed the Pentagon or so who
knows? Butter. Oh. Caliphate

So fully got busted by a keyword that's in there. We don't know
what the key word is. Could be Las Vegas. Vegas. It could be
Gonzalez, who knows. But he was irked.
Yeah.
He's very orange. And I think that's the story. Yeah, that's
the story.
So thank you very much, Sir David Foley.
And let me go get the notes. You got to know okay.
Well, while you're doing the note, I'll play a little jingle.
That's how we
that's the Porky Pig to mark the President of the United States.
Moses Hall sent that. Don't you like it? That's a good one. I
have another one to play it. And this is from Secret Agent Paul.
That's how we that's how we
That's how we roll. That's how we That's how we roll.
I like the Porky Pig better.
We have the best producers in the world. See the Porky Pig, no
wonder
and that's the story.
That is good. I mean, that's a keeper. I agree. That's fun.
Yeah, that was funny. But who was that again? That was Moses
Hall. Moses. Good. Oh, Moses. I'm putting them okay. Mari
stone sent in $200 by mail and he sent a note, which I think is
amusing to read. Alright, Stowe, Vermont, John and Adam. Here's a
donation to the best podcast in the known universe. Please never
talked about cell phones. Just get it? Who can read this? You
must be over 40 years old, signed Maury. Now, the reason
that this is funny to me is because it's written in
longhand. Okay. Got it. And that's the reference. And I have
to say it's very readable longhand, but it's very sloppy,
messy longhand, but it's readable. I've had other
longhand is neater looking but it's hard to read
but the message is Don't talk about phones, pretty much
bruises
on my phone
I got them all again.
I phone, my phone.
I have the full one here too. My phone,
the way I see it the only good phones a landline. And the phone
should be made out of Bakelite.
That's our Tech Tech News intro.
Yeah, the TechCrunch guy. I remember him. He was pretty
funny back in the day. All right. And that was it. I forged
my foot. Okay,
that's it. That's it. And that's the story.
Yeah, that's all we got. We got three guys.
That doesn't look like it's much better further down the list.
No, no, it's
a bad day. And I looked at the numbers coming in the
pay so much for that great aesthetics newsletter. You know,
that's
funny because I the newsletter, open rate was extremely low is
like 37% As opposed to the normal 52%. Wow. Okay. That's
disappointing. I couldn't because a lot of the newsletters
ended up in spam or the headline was no good. I think the
headline was acceptable. cares about unemployment.
The unemployed don't have enough money to read the note. So
the people that are employed don't care. Guess no care about
their fellow man. I guess not. Whatever the case Yeah, was very
short week. Okay. Who else is the instant I would have
nothing. Well, in the
instant it is getting the value he needs for his long commute.
And this is really what what radio has always been about. But
I consider this to be under the header of drivetime radio.
That's what I've always thought that products were for.
I agree. 100% I think that's it. It's ideal for this.
And we produce this specifically for for continuous listening.
That's why if you look at our waveform, we're flatter than
than pancake. Which was nice to have him again today. By the
way, we're flatter than a pancake. Because you know, the
worst thing you can have is that you either have earbuds in or
you're listening or you have a player on the table or you're in
the car and you can't hear it you continuously having to
adjust the volume and a lot of podcasts are though so we are
there's there's ups and there's pros and cons to the way we
produce it. And mainly because we don't have you know, airtight
studios like the you know, the $200 million NPR studios we
don't have that was one of those ways we get around like
that sound anyway.
I agree. Scroll down. It's too dead. I like our sound I
get a pretty good I have the insulation. I could insulate the
little area around me and I get one of those little reflectors
that you can use that sucked all the sound back sound. Yeah. And
I could say have the dead I know I can make that dead sound of
NPR. But I never liked it. I kind of like ambience. I like
the little like little window open noise. I know he's I know
he liked the window open honey.
Like the window? I know you do. Yeah, I know you're getting well
anyway, we're gonna stereotype we will be doing another show on
Thursday. And we do you need real support from from our
producing audience. You're the ones that make it happen.
Consider this, the value we're providing to you to three hours
per show six per week. If you've listened to this and just
compare it to anything else, that you spend money on your
entertainment products, or even your health products, which I'll
talk about in a moment, please go to devora.org/n A, and always
be on the lookout for people who might be good for the choir to
propagate the formula.
Our formula is this, we go out for yet people in the mouth.
And along those lines, I wanted to start off this portion of the
program, the Vblock as we call it, by reminding everybody that
we are living under the repeal meant of the Smith Mundt Act,
which means the American government is allowed to
propagandize its own people and I've done some research on this.
Well, I was looking into this I was the way the law is written.
They can actually bend real money to do this.
Well. Now this is where this comes from is the the broadcast
Board of Governors. And this is you can find it at BB G Bravo,
bravo golf.gov. And I'm bringing up here the facts about Smith
Mundt monetization. This is what we're talking about. This is
what was changed in 2003 14 under the National Defense
Authorization Act, then I just like to share a little bit of
it. And then I also got their strategic plan. Ooh. Who is
right? Who is right? This strategic plan was, is for the
years 2012 through 2014. So a lot of it is our 2016. Sorry. So
a lot of it has already been put in place. I'll just read some of
this the broadcast Board of Governors BBG. And the media
organizations that it supports can now make their content
available in broadcast quality upon request within the United
States. This is very important. This is due to a law that went
into effect on July 2 2013, amending the US information and
educational exchange act of 1948, known as the Smith Mundt.
Act, amending Smith month for this purpose was part of the
strategic plan, adopted in 2011, by the governing board
overseeing the BBG. And then they go into a number of FA Q's,
and the top one is meant to address our concern. Q. Can the
BBG now focus focus its broadcasting on the United
States answered no, there has been no change to the broadcast
Board of Governors enabling statute, the US International
Broadcasting Act of 1994, which authorizes the agency to create
programs for foreign audiences, the BBG is not authorized to
begin broadcasting or to create programming for audiences in the
United States, we do not seek to change that BBG continues to
focus on overseas audiences. Well, yeah, that may be true.
But what changed is the information and programming they
create, which says right at the top, broadcast quality upon
request within the United States, they make packages, and
you can subscribe to their packages as a news organization.
And they will send you their news packages, which you can
broadcast in the United States.
And I believe these packages are free, completely free. And you
people have to realize how this works with the local stations
especially is they they they don't produce the whole showed
on a day to day basis is too much work. And especially they
have a more you know, they have a News at Five News at Six news
at 11. So they usually have three blocks during the day of
the programming day where they suck up anywhere between two
hours. It depends if it's like typically the news and file been
our news, the six will maybe be an hour and a half hour. And you
have the net network national news which uses some of the
packages from the local station. So like occasionally a package
and a package is a produced segment. It's a segment that you
there's sometimes it's interactive, or you can drop
into local guy saying and write about that, you know, they'd
like to phony interviews that you used to do when you were in
radio. Yeah. So you can have those kinds of packages, and
sometimes the local affiliate or whoever will alter the package
because they don't like just running packages full cloth.
That's pretty rare. Most of the time, they just take the
package, they do an intro, which is usually written for him. And
it looks like people are eating more bugs today, Jim, really,
where's that? Well, that's happening in South Carolina.
In South Carolina, people are eating more bugs according to
that's how it works.
And then they go to the package, they run the package, and then
you can run to the bathroom, do whatever they want to packages
go maybe from three to eight minutes. And so these packages
now there's a bunch of expensive operations that we've actually
discussed on their budget is
$700 million a year for this little BBG. That's nice. And let
me give you a couple more of these FAQs. Q. So what does the
new law allow that wasn't allowed before? Well, this is a
very valid question. The new legislation eases Smith month
restrictions and allows the agency and its broadcasters to
respond positively to requests from within the United States
for their content. Much but not all of this programming is now
available online. Additionally, the BBG can consider domestic
requests for ongoing subscriptions, if doing so falls
within the agencies mission and other statutory authority. So
you can now as a as a local station, subscribe to the
packages and requested specifically. Yeah, and there's
even a fax Yeah, but we could sign up for two it's it's very
should. Yeah, we should. Okay, so I was just looking at and I
marked this up people can can check this for themselves. The
in the show notes. I marked up this, the strategic plan for the
broadcast Board of Governors, and just read a couple of things
here. The preface impact to innovation integration is the
third strategic plan of the Broadcasting Board of Governors
since its inception as an independent agency in 1998. And
the first under the direction of the board that took office in
July 2010 is an independent agency, which I find
interesting. The first strategic plan was titled marrying the
mission to the market and called on us international broadcasting
to adjust to my major market forces with the end of the Cold
War, specifically to distribute programming across ever larger
networks of affiliate stations. As such outlets were exploding
in number and influence. So that was the marrying the mission to
the market was there the first plan? It was timely and aiding
the BBG to meet post 911 challenges producing mission
driven products. This is great that could attract significant
audiences. Okay, and then they added Middle East and radio Sawa
and Arabic And Al Hora TV never heard of these, but I'm sure
they're out there. The second blank plan built on taking on
first taking stock of the world affected by extremism, but by
persistent authoritarianism, as well, in the dynamic in the
dynamic of market forces and mission imperatives, it
recalibrated BB G's approach to renew infinite emphasis on the
ladder whatever. From 2001 2009 BB G's budget grew from $425
million to more than $750 million. And worldwide audiences
surged from 100 to 175 million distinct legal frameworks and
personnel and administrative procedures across both federal
and non federal entities, language, servers, duplication
and complex chains of command have inhibited operational
effectiveness. This was that this was their pitch. Remember,
this is written in 2011, to have the Smith one overturned. Now
I'm going to forge ahead a little bit. Then here's the
updated mission statement. It's always good to when you read an
mission statement. In light of the new operating environment,
which includes the internet, this is their big thing. They're
saying we have to overturn the Smith one hack otherwise we
can't propagandize on the internet since it's available in
America. The and of course, we and of course, we need to
overturn that. But my goodness, we trust you guys. We know
you're only targeting external countries. Yeah, no, I mean,
well, it's obvious. In light of the new operating environment,
the BBG has revised its mission statement to inform, engage and
connect people around the world in support of freedom and
democracy. Ship, we can have that for our show. The mission
upholds the agency's role as a journalistic organization, and
advances the utility of accurate, credible news and
information to support democratic transformation across
the Middle East, North Africa and elsewhere, to counter
extremist propaganda in Afghanistan, Iran, North Korea,
Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen, and throw a light on human rights
abuses in Belarus, Burma, China, Cuba, North Korea, Russia, and
beyond. Boy, are we the indispensable nation are what?
We are so great. Okay, then I'm moving forward, strategic and
performance goals to become the world's leading international
news agency by 2016. To reach 260 million in global weekly
audience by 2016. To meet these targets, BBG will pursue an
implementation plan that combines both restructuring and
growth steps. And then they've got a whole bunch of stuff which
you can read through yourself and I'll just go down to the
next thing I put in red here. Oh, yes. They will be a leader
in Internet censorship, circumvention and anti jamming.
BBG so ironic. I know. BBC also seeks to raise a strong voice on
the international stage in order to expose the issues of
satellite jamming, censorship and internet blocking BBG. These
efforts are complemented through close coordination with the
State Department. Yeah, yes, that would be the internet
experts. And then here was the the main goal of this document
at the time, we will seek the repeal of a decade's long ban on
domestic dissemination contained in the 1948 us information and
educational exchange act Smith Mundt. Adopted in the age of
cross border communication via radio, this Act did not envision
either the internet or satellite broadcasting, which do not honor
national boundaries. With all the BB Gs 59 languages available
via the web, the agency cannot comply with this outdated
statute. In addition, to the extent that BBG sponsored
programming should be available to significant expatriate
communities in the United States, we are unable to do so
without acting counter to the limitation. You see what they're
saying there. We need
to propagandize the State Department's taking this
independent agency over and
we need to propagandize people who have emigrated to the United
States, which is pretty much everybody. I mean, how America
is an immigration country. So they're saying we need to be
able to focus our propaganda on Iranians whoever in the
California To the Iraqis in North Carolina, and Pakistanis
and Indians in Silicon Valley This is so that's what we need
to do. It says it right there black and white. To remedy this
disconnect the BBG has proposed an Administration approved draft
legislation to repeal the Smith month domestic dissemination ban
as it applies to the BBG. Okay, now, here's something that
there's a lot of just read through that it's very it's a
good read and I've highlighted printed in bits. But what is
creepy is the if you go to the website, you do need to go to
BBG dot govt to the see who these Board of Governors is on a
second am the new CEO is of great importance. They may be
g god dodge does a dot government that was an
independent agency that GM used to get money from the
government,
September 23 2014. The broadcast Board of Governors announced
today it intends to
hire Java JavaScript here, folks.
It intends to hire respected journalist and media executive
Andrew lac, as chief executive officer of the federal agency. G
Where does Andrew Luck come from?
He hasn't it doesn't have a lack of credentials.
Andrew Luck has huge credentials. He was oh, let me
say we'll just go down here. This is the Bloomberg guy. Yeah,
Bloomberg. But before that. NBC Universal CEO of Sony Music
Entertainment. He was the chief operating officer of NBC. This
is one of the top douchebags of media of entertainment and
media. He knows how to do this.
They bris Yes, he is the guy you would want and the
chairman of the board. So that this the CEO, the chairman of
the board is Jeffrey shell. Who President Comcast programming
group.
These guys don't work cheap. No.
And they don't work to create bullshit. I mean, they do of
course, but they know how to do it. These are professional
entertainment propagandize errs, you might as well just call them
and Jeffrey Gubbels.
He was also at CBS News, where he created and served as the
executive producer of groundbreaking news magazine
West 57th army. He's joined in 76 is a long time ago, next year
become a prominent producer of 60 minutes and subsequently
senior executive producer of CBS reports Mr. lacs broadcast at
CBS earned numerous honors including 16 Emmys.
Yeah, no, these guys know how to do broadcast propaganda. If you
call it the broadcast board of Google's BBG
9093 to two thirds I'm reading from his own bullcrap summary
that he put on LinkedIn about himself. That's cool about
himself. Nice. From 93 to 2001. Mr. Lac was president of NBC
News where he transformed it into America's most watched news
organization.
He hired Matt Lauer. There you go.
Okay, well, this guy is no slouch. No,
these guys are the real deal. And they are and that you're
right. He did. They do not work for free. I didn't look into
financials of the organization. I was just so blown away by
everything on this website. And if you if you look at the
stories they're pushing, let's just do that for a second. Then
while we're at it, just go to the homepage of bbd.gov G. Let's
see what are we pushing? Putin photo speaks to Voice of
America, F Russia. Voice of America's Heather Maxwell
travels to Rwanda and Cameroon. Pakistan audience realities and
an unstable media landscape. Voice of America goes to the
heart of the Ebola epidemic in Sierra Leone. Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Keep Your Voice of America a couple of times over the years.
When in Washington DC. Yeah. And it's a great you you've the
facilities are fantastic. Even back then this was like 20 years
ago. They you know, they have a big building and they got a
bunch of a whole bunch of studios and a whole bunch of
people who work in the different languages. They broadcast all
these languages. And they they had I did get from them because
they were modernizing. I got one I talked to one of them in the
sending me a surplus IBM clock. Oh, nice.
One of those that's connected to a central atomic system. Yes.
Yeah. No, those are beautiful. Click Click, click finish
writing. So
when it hits the top of the markets, that is the time and
where is it in your pile now? It's in the pile over here
behind the desk that has the printer on it.
Okay, now moving forward, I was list I told you I was checking a
lot of Canadian Broadcasting. So you fall into these rabbit holes
and Cbc had an hour Long program, which was about a study
done by multiple professors from Duke University, and it is about
the minute, it's about manipulation of will. And if and
the focus of the study and the focus of the report was about
elections? And do we really, are we really choosing elected
officials out of our free will or is something else at play. So
the voting part didn't interest me that much. But of course, the
idea that we think we're choosing what we want to choose
when really, we're being manipulated, and it turns out
quite easily, was a fascinating story. It's well worth listening
to the whole hour, I pulled three short clips from it. And
the reason this guy started off and he was a digital is on
the CBC and what was it titled?
Hold on a sec, and ideas from the trenches is the name of the
is the name of the program to dumb for democracy, okay. And a
certain point, they what they discover in this stuff, but the
reason he decided to study this and make this his dissertation
and became a big deal, and a lot of these, a lot of professors
jumped in on this from neurology and Duke University's of real
institution is because he was running for class president his
freshman year. And he decided that he would, this would be his
campaign, he would hand out candy to everybody. And his
slogan was, I don't have a girlfriend so I can spend more
time working for you. And he didn't, he had no nothing else.
That's all he had. And I won't work with anyone. Yeah, but
landslide. Nobody asked him what he was going to do. They did the
candy. And the slogan was all he needed anyone. And he thought to
himself why he was very sad, of course, because I don't think it
was that sad. But he said in his story, he says he was sad,
because he be he said, the whole crap, democracy doesn't work.
We're too dumb for it. So here is just a couple of clips, which
explains, I think, in the no agenda way of thinking, it's so
important for us to be aware of what is happening with
propaganda with things like the broadcast board of gerbils,
because it affects us in ways we don't even expect and it's very
simple.
So the autonomous part is, are you aware of all the factors
that gave rise to your judgment? Or is there some deception? And
if there's some deception involved, that you're not aware
of, then it's not autonomous? And the rational bit is a
question of, is this considered position something that's
logical? Is it consistent? Is it a considered position about the
world? And it turns out that, in a lot of cases, it's not.
And that's important, because when people said, Hey,
democracy, let's try that it would be a really good idea.
There was this premise.
Yeah. And part of the bargain that was made over time was that
we're going to transfer some of this authority to the people.
But one of the assumptions underlying that bargain was that
the people have some sort of capacity to self govern. And
democracy was supposed to be the vehicle for taking the popular
will and turning it into some sort of outcome. But now we have
have to ask ourselves, what is that? Well, where is it coming
from? How's it formed and doesn't really reflect people's
true preferences and priorities? And it seems to be the case that
sometimes it might not.
Okay, so that's PROFESSOR DAVID MOSS crop just kind of setting
up this manipulation of free will now we have another
professor on the study, Tanya, by here's here's who she is.
Tanya Shatrughan,
is a professor of psychology and neuroscience at Duke University.
Okay,
so that's a real professor, you don't become that just by being
a douche knuckle, or bringing apples for the teacher. And she
spoke specifically about this test they did. And it's
frightening when you hear how easily manipulable we are one of
the studies that really got people really interested in this
was a study done by my PhD advisor, John barge, and Mark
Chen and Laura Burroughs. It was published in 1996. And they did
this study where they had people complete these scrambled
sentences and so they had to unscramble some words to form a
sentence. And embedded in that task. Were either words related
to the elderly, you know, words like gray bingo wrinkles,
Florida, or, or in the other group of people just got neutral
scrambled sentences with no words like that embedded, and
then they just timed people to see how long it took them to
walk from the lab room to the elevator, and they found that
people who filled out the scrambled sentences that had
words like gray wrinkled bingo, Florida, they walked more
slowly. li to the elevator, because they thought they were
old. Yeah, behaving in line with the stereotype of the elderly.
There were no words like slow. It was just words related to
this elderly stereotype. And so that, you know, people couldn't
believe those results when they were first published. They
thought, This is crazy. Yeah.
I didn't know this. This to me is wow, that's all
great to know agenda shows because we give people a
brighter look on life.
And that is exactly what my final clip is about. How you
what how important it is to combat the this messaging,
although wow, if, if just these words like slow Gray, Florida
can make you actually act on hold and walk slower?
How difficult would it be for us to open that up a bit and
recognize the automatic background processes in our
brains and become more conscious of our decisions? You know,
in theory, one could try to recognize one zone non conscious
processing, and then try to correct for that. But there's a
lot of research showing that it's hard to correct
appropriately for automatic influences. Because
listen carefully, this is why you have so much trouble and why
it is virtually impossible to convert someone to if you have a
true obat as an example, you can't just go up to them and
say, hey, those beheadings aren't real, it doesn't work
that way,
we may not know the direction of the influence on us. Or even if
we do know the direction, we may not know the magnitude of the
influence, so we end up correcting for it. But we could
either overcorrect or under Correct. You know that said
change can only come with awareness, you have to become
aware of what these influences are on you first. And I think
that there is some evidence now that with practice and thinking
about these things, people do show signs of improvement, that
they're better able to kind of identify how they might be
influenced outside of their awareness.
If you wake up with the blues, Jennifer, you'll gain news.
There's one thing you must remember no agenda in Bonin
for a healthy balanced news diet and try no agenda show.com.
Well, that's for sure. Yeah. I have some thoughts on this.
Okay. First of all, the concept that, you know, the democracy is
crap, because it's people are so easily influenced kind of ignore
and maybe it's crap for other reasons. But it's also works
better than other systems, even with this and play because the
political philosophers on either side of it have an issue, spend
all their time working, the working, they're working the
public. Sure, sure. And so the thing balances out and somehow
the public at some point, you know, gravitates to one argument
or the other and it's yeah, it's like a big experiment. It's
maybe like rats in a cage. But, but it's it does have, you know,
generally speaking, the public chooses correctly. I mean, for
example, they did not pick John Kerry, for President. Because of
carry himself. Sometimes the messaging is subtle from the
candidate that comes as I don't like this guy's a creep.
Okay, but just playing kind of devil's advocate of the public,
or part of the public chose John Kerry to be the candidate.
Yes, that will always be the case. That's how demo system
works. You're going to have all right, right, you're gonna have
these idiots that are always going to be in some images
lockstep, and they're gonna always then they're on both
sides. So it's like it's post the event itself out it in a in
an unbalanced situation, I suppose it could go too far. And
you end up with a button in the end it would Nazi Germany. I
mean, I don't see that that couldn't happen here to be
honest about it. There is an anti democratic kind of thinking
in academia that would result in this sort of thing. I wanted to
mention that the embedded in text thing, although we don't
have we had clips about it. This is what's going on with Common
Core testing. Ah, yeah. Right. Yep.
Oh, you said right.
No, but I said, Right. Was a question. Oh, no, no, no, I
said, so I take it back up. Think I'm thinking I wasn't just
right. As a throwaway question, take it back, that you're buzzed
me.
I'm so sorry. I
take it back. Okay. Okay. I'm just making sure you make that
clear. Yeah. So Common Core testing has this, you know, this
element in it, where there's a lot of brainwashing that goes
on. I think this would be the case with a lot of testing in
certain educational situation, which is what people complain
about. They don't only complain about the textbooks, but they
complain about the way the questions that you ask very,
very common and in a propagandistic environment. Then
the last thing I thought was kind of interesting is the is
the idea that if you hear enough bad things is what old ladies
think. No, I'm not gonna listen to that. It's not I need a
positive attitude that the nut balls out there may be actually
on to something based on this brief Search, the guys who take
and put signage all over their room. Think positive. Life is
good. You know these people it works. It probably works.
There's a book called Change your words change your world,
which I had been reading, very interesting book where even just
say just the way you speak speaking more positively can and
often does affect not just your overall bodily health, but also
the world around you things start to happen. This is along
the lines of the book The Secret in a way,
there is a huge downside to this.
Okay, but thank God there's a buzzkill.
The downside is these hopeless hippies, unreconstructed
hippies, old ladies at the Monterey food vegetable market,
who've got that stupid smile on their face all the time. They're
the ones who bring the bags and they have a forced positive
attitude that is disgusting and that it shouldn't exist where
you're just smiling to get a dumb smile on your face all the
time. Creepy dumb smile, by the way, a creepy demo smile and
you're carrying a bunch of old Trader Joe's bags that are
dirty. And you get you get digging in, you're holding up
the line, you're holding up production, you're holding up
production later, you're holding on the line. That is the
downside of this, which is creating a bunch of bots or
bots, many of them hope and change. That whole that whole
group Well, zombie like people
but hope it changes is not is not a positive thing. Hope and
Change. You're gonna if you want hope you can have hope. The
change doesn't mean change for the better didn't say good
change, positive change change for the upside?
It's implied. Okay, whatever the case. So the downside to me is a
creation of a bunch of gender just as dumb as anybody. I mean,
they're not they're just you have a positive attitude. Maybe
they walk a little faster. I don't see it. But they seem to
be slow moving if he asked me.
Well, one thing for sure.
Well, let me just then, one other thing my mother, who I was
considered one of the most negative people I've ever known,
really read nothing but yeah. Yeah, she would say stuff. Like,
I've got to get down to longs drugs and get some toilet paper
because the Chinese are buying it up.
This was your mom you grew up with this is great. Can you give
us one more anecdote? This could be a feature segment on the
show. Give us another another anecdote from John's dead mom.
I'd have to think about it. Whatever the case was, she read
nothing but pod but Norman Vincent Peale. positive
attitudes you know, all these books constantly. She'd always
talk about it. She'd say, No, you've got to have natty you've
got to have a positive attitude. Geez, you know, all the people
are telling me this. Did she?
Did she actually say the Chinese are buying up all the toilet?
Yes.
The classic the whole family knows about and they all crack
up. I think this theory that if the Chinese were doing
something, something was up.
And you know what? She's right. There are people all over Gitmo
nation who now have coffee on the inside of their windscreen?
Because of what you just said. That was that was a spit take if
I ever heard one.
Witness out by the way track I tried to pull it off. I tried to
if you're trying to be funny at the dinner table always do when
somebody's taking a drink.
Man oh man. Oh, man. I love that
get out chatters as your mom talking from the grave.
Pretty much
Oh my goodness. That's funny.
Yeah, that was a depression people. You know, she was a
depression kid. Ya know? Yeah, of course I was doing so all
these people from this era to they're the greatest generation
and the men sometimes I'd say the worst generation they they
had a lot of interesting concepts that you I mean, most
of them were, you know, just crazy. But at the others, you
know, it's like Ron Paul is one of these people. Yeah, some of
his stuff is interesting to contemplate. I've been
noticing just speaking that propaganda speaking of
propaganda, the air is loaded for bear
with the sounds today. Well, you
give me a whistle give me that really mean that rolling thing
that spinning thing is my favorite. That is my favorite.
But you got to do it from really low and then then then ratchet
it up. I said propaganda perfect. In the White House
emails whenever they talk about how great the President is, they
capitalize Great. Recession, capital G capital R. Like,
I've noticed that he's been saying that a lot. He's trying
to trying to coinage coin it
well, but I think it's a stylistic error at this point.
But I guess they're forcing it when they write an email, great
recession is capital G capital R like, it's this thing.
Like, it's great. Well, for sure. I think that's the mistake
they're making.
And I'm very worried right now, John, I am worried sick about
our president.
And I'll tell you why. Yes, I'd like to know why cuz I'm not
really that worried. Well. Okay, for the Secret Service Gaff.
Well,
this is this is where I'm putting pieces together. And we
had another like a fake Congressman got him backstage at
some the fundraiser event yet another secret service move. I
am Congressman curry. Oh, come on in. Here's the President have
your picture taken with him? Another secret service snafu.
But what is the benefit? If this president serves his term, he
will go down as a failure of a failure because he did nothing
but make it worse, put us back into more wars. And of course,
no matter how many times you say the economy's great, it's not
everybody knows that.
I think that chart that I sent out in the newsletter, nobody
open. Nobody saw it shows the shows that the trend is
maintaining itself toward a depression leveled unemployment
rate. So now, if you have 10 people, and it's so bad out
there, you can't get a job. They all want to work. And five of
them say screw it. I'm just gonna live at home with my
relatives. Yeah, they they're taken off, and now you have the
other five work and it's 100% employment. It's not right.
That's not true. So it's the way the numbers are worked up today.
If the president serves out his term, his presidency will be
deemed in general and will be abused by other political
parties as a failure. But look at how did that work for you?
How are you? Are you happier than you were eight years ago,
you could just hear the campaign slogans. What
about Gitmo?
But if the President were to not using careful terms here, if the
President were not to complete his term, then he can be
martyred?
Pico he could quit you know, he, yes,
he could quit for personal reasons, which is one of the
things
we predicted as some time ago, he was gonna quit for to be with
the family.
And this is an option but put together when
he forced him quit it is so dangerous that they got these
guys, you know, every time he turns around, there's some
schmuck that's standing there with a gun.
This would be one of the ways that this is being orchestrated,
I'm afraid. And I've seen I haven't recorded it, but I'm
seeing it everywhere on television. Do you think this is
because he's a black man in the White House? I'm seeing this is
what I told you
did create they've I've noticed this too. Yeah, they are
cranking up the race issue and even on even on but Bill Maher
had steel?
Richard, I have I saw this whole thing. And Richard
Steele, who is a Republican is all in with this thesis.
It's, I find it very discouraging. Very unAmerican to
even use this type of scenario or, or just to, it's called
playing race, awkward, but
it's purposeful. It's been reintroduced in a big way. The
Democrats are all in on this. They've always been in as far as
they're concerned, because it's great leverage for them to prove
that everyone's especially Republicans all bunch of a
holes. And so that's always been an it's always been a subtext,
and they use it as an excuse for everything. The Republicans,
though have not been using it. They've been trying to say, no,
no, no, no, no. We want to have on honest discourse. Well, of
course, Richard Steele comes out and says this, he's
a dick. For the Republicans, it would behoove them to have the
president service full term so they can say, how did that work
out for you
that the only people that would suffer are the Democrats, if he
says that the term you know, and keeps making gaffes and going
golfing so here
are the here are the scenarios and the options. Were the
obvious one is the President contracts Ebola, that that would
be that would solve everything right
there. Yeah, and that's not going to have it's probably not
going to happen. Then we have a security situation. I'm afraid
for my family. There's a number of things you can say which
everyone will The way it's going the way I'm seeing the way this
is being presented, which is completely abhorrent to presume
that the Secret Service is not protecting the president because
he's black. This is completely makes no sense. Right? You know,
there being lots of lots of African American black, brown,
yellow, purple, pink people who are in administration who have
security details, where this is not happening to
the seventh shot into the White House, it was only revealed in
detail recent hearings, made it clear that one of the daughters
was in the White House at the time, and one of the bullets
could have killed her.
So it could be a family member. It could be one of those, you
know, I'm afraid for my family could be that. Or it could
actually be, you know, a family member could be taken out the
number of things that could happen. I hate just discussing
this because it sounds so morbid. But I feel it's a
reality with these clearly orchestrated security flaws.
This, this makes no sense. Makes no sense. What is happening. On
the other hand, of course, it's all theater. So maybe it is Joe,
by the way. I think he's he's, he's waiting for it. He's in on
it. He's out there, do B and Joe listen, he was at Harvard. And
some kid asked him a question about that. And he said, I'm the
vice president of the Student Council, listen to this. I'm a
senior at the college. I'm the vice president of the student
body here in a bitch. Vice President at a bitch being Vice
President. That's no good. Yeah, Joe.
That's right. An aihole. No, no,
this is the aihole he was he did a speech in and he was talking
about the tornado in Joplin, Missouri, Missouri. Which was
about three years ago. I think three maybe four years ago. The
tornado. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if this was a Joe ism
or if it was in the prompter or how this happened, but that
is the 1000s of cars tossed around like leaves in fall,
windstorm. 161,000 brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, sons,
daughters, grandparents lost
161,000 really well. It was 161 but he just added 1002 He had to
play
that again. To 1000s of cars tossed around like leaves in
Fall windstorm that's poetry Joe 161,000 brothers sisters,
mothers fathers Sons Daughters grandparents lost
oh, maybe it was referring to men being lost because the you
know, they got no go and away.
It was 161 people who died just for some reason he didn't think
that was good enough.
Well, after he pretty much mentioning everybody on the
list. Mothers Daughters, sisters, cousins, nieces,
grandfathers, fathers, grandmothers, mothers, you're
gonna be over 261 Pretty soon. I love it. It's really good.
That's a good one that's borderline could not really not
really it was no because it was so. I don't know where you got
that one. That's a gym.
So I had to find new health insurance. Because No, that's
right. This is a problem for you. Yeah. And it's a real
problem because the exchanges aren't born accepting anything.
There's timing with all this and then of course, this is
the thing that bothers me that open enrollment, okay, you got
till October 1 or October 15 for open enrollment. Yeah, well, is
the point of this. So I want everybody why is there a school
a moment when you can do this? Why can't you do it anytime you
feel like
it because it's a scam? Because there's a huge auto insurance.
I don't have to wait like oh, you can't have auto insurance.
You have to drive around that insurance because your open
enrollment for auto insurance is between November 1 and November
10.
This is exactly what happened. And here's the message I got
from Blue Shield who we chose as as the correct provider for us.
Why doesn't Congress ask about this? And post sense to me
and Blue Shield says Well, as of October I'm sorry, September 1,
because bite size TV and all my insurance went away everything I
had it all went away. So okay, fine. At this level.
Oh, you do have a cobra. No, but you also Yeah, that What a rip
off that you have this little moment. I think if you still if
you had insurance, they don't have insurance. Yeah, you had to
have a cobra or something. I think you can get in some
trouble. I'm going to tell you but you keep yelling about
Congress. I'm Yes. I'm sorry. The Chinese are buying it all
up. I tell you So Blue Shield says, Okay, you will be
technically insured. And it's this is not cheap. The M 50.
Mickey is significantly younger. But you know, we're not 30
anymore. So this is the you're talking some serious dough here
all of a sudden that pops down on him. I am I am I asked. And
they say you, technically you will be insured. But if you you
will need to keep receipts because of Obamacare, they say
Affordable Care Act, and the enrollment period and the
backlog, you will not be able to actually have your insurance
paperwork done for six weeks.
Isn't this what computers are for? Yeah. It's a glitch.
And, and, and I'm just flabbergasted. I'm sure that if
something really bad happens, yeah, I'm sure first of all, is
that is that? Is the hospital going to even admit me?
They can admit you on emergency base. You gotta find it. It's an
ER, you have to go that way.
Do they take it? Do they take debit cards? Exactly.
Just say that you have Ebola?
So the President was doing one of his little roundabout things
at some metal workers some factory. And a guy asked a
question. And I was blown away by this answer.
My name is here for Japan, the general manager Millennium
steal. A very honored to have you. One of the questions I had
is about the health care costs. We are seeing almost double
digit increase healthcare costs every year. So do you think that
trends gonna go down? And what what can we do to control that
trend?
Why that's really interesting, or you're gonna have to talk to
Henry. Because not Oh, this is serious. Yeah. Question is
whether you're doing whether you guys are shopping effectively
enough,
you're not doing it right. You're not shopping, right?
That's a good one. He
has the balls to say this.
Turns out this year, and in fact, over the course of the
last four years, listen to this premiums have gone up at the
slowest rate in 50 years.
Why are they going up at all?
Premiums have gone up at the slowest rate in 50 years? That
is just fucking amazing. Mr. President. Were they going up at
all? They should be going down? Wasn't that the promise?
Yeah. National Healthcare
premiums have actually slowed down? significantly.
The guy just said double digit increase year over year and the
President just says you're not shopping. Right? You are not
doing it. Right. It's your fault. Talk to Henry.
Unbelievable.
Yeah, well, you're experiencing it. So this will be interesting.
Yeah. It's already interesting.
Yeah, it's a big scam.
It truly truly is. The more doctors I talk to,
oh, the all the doctors the most liberal. I have a very liberal
doctor. He's like a borderline communist. And but he's great.
And he's, you know, and he's into alternative approaches. And
he's 70. And he's got, you know, into acupuncture and he's in the
know that drug isn't proven. This just came out. I wouldn't
subscribe him, you know, and he's in he's not a Vaxxer. But
he's thinks for people to get too many vaccines. He's the one
one time there was a this was years before the show. I went
into the I went in at it because there was a bunch of promotion
again, before we were doing the show and I didn't sponsors you
know, I was not I was stupid. And I asked him I said that
there's a lot of publicity for this to hepatitis vaccine. He
said and I said, sure I get one and he says what? You're working
with blood all day that you need a vaccine for hepatitis B. You
are blood workers that what you're doing you're telling me
you're working with blood? Wow. And I said no, he says then you
don't need the vaccine. Wow.
Right on anyway, I have lots of stuff but I'd like you to get to
some of your stuff here. You I was
just relaxing by the way.
Are you one of the Barco lounge or again, John? We did the show
an hour earlier today as John has a fly flight to catch what
time do we have to really be done in order for you to catch
the flight
right now? I got some off clips. I don't have anything. That's
the magic. I would like I do have that thematic. I do have
what somebody's talking about ISIS a little bit. Yeah, I do
have a very long clip which is going to interest you.
Are you saying ISIS now instead of ISIL?
I said ISIS. I'm gonna say I made a mistake. Just put I
noticed I wrote it on here as ISIS. Whatever the case, I have
a long interview of a regular shows up on the PBS NewsHour,
Fred Kagan Oh, no. Not those guys again. Read Kagan is a
regular on the PBS NewsHour.
I know he's he's one of our guys
huge guys and big he's big
guy big guy big giant guy and he's an historian you know?
Yes right
and let's just play their jingle there the whole family has a
jingle Rob
brought to you by clan
KK. Well, we can start with that if you want it. It's it's wise
long clip. It's the whole thing and I just actually cut it off.
But I figured you could stop it at any time, but it gives you
kind of a background on this. On the gaff. I don't understand why
they don't get rid of clapper. But clapper go comes out.
Well, the President tried to get rid of him with by saying on the
60 Minutes interview was his fault.
I don't know why they can't get rid of him. Whatever the case is
the 60 minutes even Obama said that it was intelligence.
Network art.
I can just imagine clapper going Oh really? Well, I have the root
password to everything.
There's something like that going on obviously. Or I have
some lighter material
as you prefer.
Or assume or else again, these other clips maybe just
play something. Yeah.
Or just keep talking. Yeah. Let's talk about this play an
odd this odd fire story which I thought was amusing. I want to
comment on it.
Hi writers in Eldorado County are expected to have the massive
King fire fully contained today. The fire has burned nearly
90,000 acres and is 98% contained. The fire which has
been burning for several weeks has now destroyed 12 homes. At
one point more than 5000 firefighters were helping fight
that Blaze. The Madera County Sheriff's says last month's fire
there was started by a man bird and deer carcass. The sheriff
says the man confessed to finding the carcass while doing
construction work and says he set it on fire to get rid of the
smell. The fire destroyed 30 homes and burned more than 300
acres before reaching the edge of bass lake. The personal
pieces the man has apologized for the fire so far he has not
been identified nor arrested. Okay,
well got this deer here we're doing what do you guys know
we're building this building here but there's a dead
deer I gotta not do want to torch that sucker. It stinks.
This
deer is steaks tortured
it.
Okay, just the dumb the Dumb Dumb folks in California. Yeah,
and that was pretty dumb. Now here's another story that's kind
of interesting to some one of the image some American kid was
an aid worker. This is the latest thing that ISIS ISIL ISIL
people are doing they're grabbing somebody do gooder is
out in the open is a do gooder. Let's kidnap him and then either
chop his head off or get some money out of him. So this
parents of the kitten this kidnap kids come on. This is a
story about it's just Peter Kassig is who you're talking
about. I think it might be whatever the case I want you to
tell me if you see the this package the same way I do. These
parents were coached to say what they said. And I'm thinking is
this what Dan it's got to be our people like State Department. Is
this the message that you're supposed to send out to get your
kid back? I want to talk about
this. Well, the parents of an American hostage held by ISIS
fighters have made an appeal for his release their son Peter
Kassig is 26. He's an aid worker and he was kidnapped in Syria a
year ago. He converted to Islam during his captivity and his
mother. Were there during her video message to the captors.
We implore those who are holding you to show mercy and use their
power to let you go
We implore his captors to show mercy and use their power to let
our son go.
Okay, I have a lot to say about this. But I want to hear what
you want.
I don't have anything to say about it. It's obviously
cowshed, employ your mercy did use your power. All these code
words that are used in this messaging, okay, I think are
not explained to me how all this works, because I followed this
trail. And we also need to talk about Alan Henning, who was
beheaded. I'm sorry. Here we go. Peter, Cassie was an Army Ranger
and he decided to help Syrian refugees and he founded
something called Sarah S E. R. A. And mind you in the story
they told you that he converted to Islam. And he started this
Sara medic ser ame di c.org. And if you go to that website, it
says due to the President's security situation and serious
Sarah has temporarily ceased its operations doesn't say our dude
was beheaded. Even our story let's remember that it talks
about talks about Peter Kassig. Former US Army Ranger who served
in the Iraq War talks about their values, and then nothing
about him being kidnapped nothing about him. killed, they
just close this down. And of course, Sarah is nowhere to be
found as a 5013 C corporation, nonprofit. They do have values
Sara conforms to the humanitarian charter and minimum
standards in humanitarian response as outlined by the
severe project S P H, E R E. So I go looking at the sphere
project, my goodness, the sphere project. The sphere Project
Office works to implement spheres vision for improved
quality and accountability in humanitarian response staff
include a project manager and five other positions. And then
they have all these accountability standards is
meant for nongovernmental organizations and the sphere
project offices hosted by the International Council of
voluntary agencies in Geneva. All right off we go to Geneva,
the International Council of voluntary agencies, which is a
huge organization, global network of nongovernmental
organizations whose mission is to make humanitarian action more
principled than effective by working collectively and
independently to influence policy and practice. Department
met members of the ICBA allows smaller NGOs to have our voices
heard internationally, thus bringing to the fore issues
close to the hearts of smaller organizations. And then you
really look at what this guy was saying this Peter Kassig with
his non registered as far as I can tell ser a international
nonprofit. He said, please send your checks to the Epworth
United Methodist Church, which is this little rinky dink church
in his hometown for a Muslim converted Islamist to have
checks being sent to the Epworth United Methodist Church for his
nonprofit which is not hasn't evil has not filed any paperwork
is sketchy at best people. So let's go to Henning which is the
guy who was curious, this
church is a chain of churches. None what is the app worth EP
EP,
EP, Indiana? I think it is. Well, there's one
in Berkeley, there's one in Denver, that's the one
specifically
is for Epworth, United Methodist Church in Indianapolis. Okay.
And that's where you need to send your check. And there's no
news of this guy anywhere on this website. So I don't know
what at what aid work and what was he doing? As far as I'm
concerned, he was on their team. I don't I can't see it any other
way. But he converted to Islam. And then now he's been in their
custody captivity for nine months.
Well, I'd like to know, here's my question. And this is all
great. It's interesting. But what is the deal with these
parents? With this exact same wordage message? Is it code to
tell somebody something that you know, the emphasize is that both
people say the same thing, then you got to do this? For me? What
is it? This seems like some sort of bag job of some sort? Yeah.
And the mom's got a headdress on. Jeff, we're in a.
Well, let's let's follow the path. But let's go back to Alan
Henning. Alan hanging Henning, who I investigated when he was
held up as the next guy to go. Which by the way is before we
have these two can't lie episodes. So can't lay the other
British guy. He even did a second episode. It was so
uninteresting you and I didn't even discuss it on the show. But
it was it was so dumb. This was supposed to be some kind of
ongoing soap opera, episodic, right, it's gonna be an episodic
video and it's dumb. It's just no good. So this handsome guy.
This is an ambulance driver who by the way in every picture is
throwing the Islam number one salute. And when is that the
middle finger? No, it's the it's the like, We're number one. But
you do it in a certain way. You point out a certain way. This is
this is the idea. No, this Yes, Islam is number one. Okay, okay.
Now, by the way, the guy who has been in captivity for a year,
they feed him well because he did not lose a lot of weight.
This is a big guys fat, a fat Brit. And it's not like they're
starving him. So whatever is going on there that he's getting
fed well, because he did not look very starved. And this of
course, is oh, it's horrible. Again, the same pattern for the
video we see slice, slice, slice, slice slice, but it's
everything is exactly the same little shorter speech by the
guy. And then we see a photoshop job of his head on his butt with
some blood, but nothing like a blood out head or body would
would be. This is what I have from surgeons. You've just saved
this is this is not enough blood, it's just not enough
blood. The BBC kicks this up with this interview with Casin
Jamil who was part of this these aid convoys to Syria and he was
his buddy and hits a two minute clip and and I'm trying to think
if I will, how I want to set the listeners up. Okay, just to
pleasure me. Please think of this leisure you I don't think
so. You will pleasure me by just for this one moment because it's
going to be I'm asking a big it's a big ask here. think this
guy is acting, just think he's an actor. And then listen to the
clip and then we'll talk about it.
The cubs has knew that he was just an aid worker. This was
just a game for them. Thank you. While it was about IFO getting
to know them for such a long time. They would release him
this was what we were holding on to you angry angry. Angry is
another word agony is a loaded statement. First and foremost
distro as is everybody if people wanted at all and he just needs
to look at one of his videos amongst the whole we have lost a
friend I've lost close to them by over the to the you know, we
need a non Muslim to help he gave me on convoys no Muslim and
I will openly say that no Muslim gave me the help of these
convoys that have it gave me Of course I'm wondering well
heartbroken most devastated
I think a lot of people as you said don't know Alan will be
inspired by his story. Do you feel like some positive can come
any positive
at the BBC is reading a script here. That is not has nothing to
do with journalism. This woman is saying home I think you will
be inspired by his story Thank you
can come from this.
Positive has to come from this. The positive has to come from
this that this one individual has made such a difference. The
people in Syria didn't know each other. They risked their lives.
They risked their lives to find find out and whilst I was there,
the whole world knows how live you know would ever be any other
way. Because he's done more
more than over one and a half billion so called Muslims have
ultimately ultimately paid the biggest price by sacrificing his
life for the men, women and children of Syria.
Okay, so of course I go and look into Mr Jamil because this is
the only thing I have to hold on to then Mr. Jamil has been a
member of these nonprofits. The aid for Syria convoy, which is
managed by charities such as the one nation Alpha Tia, global and
aid for Syria. These organizations they organize
fundraising events that invite radical preachers as guests mid
November the eighth for Syria convoy, had Zaheer Mahmoud and
molars bag who came in to speak and these are definitely if you
read up on these guys, radicals, Jamila is owned Facebook, which
I can't absorb. I'm only going by what I have. I can't prove
any of this. Of course the profile is now deleted now that
everyone's been looking at this could be total bull crap. It
could be the Koch brothers faking me out? I don't know. I'm
just telling you what I found in my research on his Facebook
page, and he lauded Syrian jihadi martyrs had some quotes
by Osama bin Laden such as our men love death like your men
love life. He's promoted excerpts from the Koran which
justify violence against Jews who he describes as dishonest
and enemies of Allah claimed that Shia Muslims have defamed
the mothers and believers now so I'm it's very hard to take this
seriously. Particularly when looking at this video. As a
video production professional which I've done it
sounds like a BBC soap opera does is the acting you know in
the sofa. It's always interesting to me. When you
interview you can pick up any We can pick up on this is when
somebody is, is memorized the script, and then they execute
the script. Even a good actor doesn't sound natural. Because
when you see people with a camera, when they stick the
camera in the face of somebody who's actually had a real
tragedy, their house burned to the ground right in front of
them, and the way they speak their cadence, and everything
that's natural about somebody who has a mic stuck in their
face, and they're not professional actors or
presenters, and they're just talking like normal people. They
sound different. Yes. Then this this, this funny kind of pacing
you get from actors
and his lines about he paid with the ultimate price.
And the wind and the quoting of the 1.5 billion or whatever, 1.5
billion Muslims. Yeah, it's all the talking points are in there.
Yeah, you don't normally talk with talking points. When you
have a mic stuck in your
bench and you're crying and you're, and you're naturally
distraught.
So the last thing that comes to mind
now, it really doesn't matter. Because, you know, the president
already put his statement out. In the presence of statements
about this. The United States strongly condemns the brutal
murder of United Kingdom citizens, Alan Henning by the
terrorist group ISIL. Mr. Henning work to help improve the
lives of the Syrian people and his death is a great loss for
them for his family and the people of the United Kingdom. I
don't think it's the United Kingdom, I think as United
Kingdom, standing together with our UK friends and allies, we
will work to bring perpetrators of Allen's murder as well as the
murders of Jim Foley, Steven Sotloff, and David Haines to
justice. Speaking, a standing together with a broad coalition
of allies and partners, we will continue taking decisive action
to degrade and ultimately destroy ISIL. And let's see the
president is I mean, everyone's out there working on this NPR.
Bad this fantastic. That's on National Public Radio here had
this fantastic little report, which completely fixes the
chorus on group lie. The chorus on group is the day after we had
the White House fence jumper, the President started the
attacks in Syria. But we didn't go after we didn't have ISIL we
hit some group called the chorus on group who did not have a
Wikipedia entry until September 21st.
Right when I think that, that mention of that group took
everybody by surprise.
And here's NPR fixing the problem. One of
the first targets of American airstrikes in Syria was an al
Qaeda unit that US officials have called the horizont group.
Even now, there are many questions about the
organization, including why the public hadn't heard of it until
just before the US launched attacks. Rebels on the ground in
Syria say they've never heard of it. Others claim it's just
another name for what's known as core al Qaeda. Okay, so
we have some issues. Let's bring in some spokes hold and let's
wrap it all up in an eightball. Because NPR, when you ask an
official spokes hole of the United States government and
they give you an answer, you need to just believe this.
That's
the terrorist group that the Obama administration said was
decimated years ago, and Paris counterterrorism correspondent
Dina temple Rastan explains how the horizontal group operates.
For weeks now the Pentagon has been having to field questions
notice they
bring the girl in who did the the the jihadi encryption thing.
That's her voice for weeks now. It's been really exciting to see
what's happening with ISIL and the Horus on group, which they
pronounce his horizontal instead of notice that Corizon for weeks
now, the Pentagon has been having to field questions about
horse on, including whether it even exists.
We've been watching this group for a long time, I can't account
for the fact that it wasn't a household name in America or
elsewhere around the world. That's
Pentagon spokesman, Rear Admiral John Kirby in a press conference
this week,
the notion that we would just you know, make them up or
fancified, the threat that they pose to justify military action
is just absolutely ridiculous.
Ridiculous, it's just how can you even think of such a thing?
I wish I had mentioned some if you read the Pakistani media or
any, any one of these countries back there, all these groups
have been identified by the press the Middle Eastern Band
and Far Eastern press or the Near Eastern press, whatever you
want to call it, the South East Asia press. They're all
brown and brown people press. Well, just
FYI, they're generally in the in the CIA handbook. Yeah, there's
no such thing as a group like this. No, and the makeup just
everybody knows all these groups. I
mean, the horizont is a region it's a region known as the
horizont region groups in
Pakistan is like 50. There's none of these groups that are a
big secret until the last minute when we decide to bomb them.
This is bullcrap. Let's
just roll it back a little bit just to hear him say that
because one day in the future, and I hope we're still alive,
we'll make him eat those words, because these things do come
out, you know, it gets declassified. And once. Yeah,
well, there's a long time ago. You know, a government doesn't
do that. And it's
just absolutely ridiculous. In fact, two intelligence officials
confirmed to NPR that the US military's Joint Special
Operations Command felt that the horizont threat was serious
enough to put together a target list and
so this is not journalism. Views now, do you have the spokes I'll
say That's just insane to think that we would make that up and
then she says In fact, two personnel no names. Could be
interns could be the guy cleaning the bathrooms. They
confirmed NPR did people
yah yah yah yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah, this is not
journalism. This is not line you can call and that's what you get
this dancer. Hello.
I will try this on for a second.
Click. Hello. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hi.
Hi, this is behind. This is Dan Dan douchebag. From and I have a
question about this Horizont group. Are they for real? Yeah,
yeah, yeah. Yeah. All right. Thank you very much. Yeah.
Justify military action is just absolutely ridiculous.
In fact, two intelligence officials confirmed to NPR that
the US military's Joint Special operate, in
fact, this this is this people should be forced to resign over
this report. I'm telling you this is this
is a pay raise Give me a break
patience command felt that the horizont threat was serious
enough to put together a target list in June. That list included
the group's leaders who were embedded with other Islamist
fighters near the Syrian city of Aleppo. The mission didn't get
very far because at the time, the White House wasn't ready to
launch strikes in Syria or rock. intelligence officials say that
the concern was that the horizont group might be able to
get hard to detect bombs onto airplanes in response to that
threat.
I thought those are the Yemen guys. Yeah, that's the Yemen
guy. Confusing the story. But in fact, this was sent confirmed
NPR, that everything you hear is absolutely true. This is all a
fact. It has been confirmed. Just take it from the Yes. Yes,
guy.
Yes, yes, guy. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yes. Yeah.
So fact it's true. That yes, yes. Guy says yes. Yes. So
therefore, it's a fact. Yes. Yes, guy. Yeah. Good guess. Yes.
The Transportation Safety Administration issued a warning
in July for airlines to step up screening. And the horizont
became a top priority and
the horizont and the horizont my ass became a top priority. I
think that just all laugh and go hey, let's just pronounce it
Horizont. Like it's horrible.
Let's make it a horror. Horror. horizonx is on yay.
Right now we're at the 13 green where the President is about to
put in. Let's talk to the Yes. Yes, guys. He was a fact. Is he
putting?
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
I like this guy. Yeah, I'd like to Yes. Yes, guy. He's pretty
interesting. Yeah, yeah. To the good guy. Then we have now this
knob you know how I love to associate things and love to
look at why things are happening. I believe the town's
you heard first ever on this program before you heard them
anywhere where Waziristan. No one had spoken about Waziristan.
Oh, yeah. But we brought it up on the show because the pipeline
runs through it. Then we got all these drone strikes and was here
it's not so neat, nailed the reason for Homs Homs. And Aleppo
being Yeah, what was in Aleppo? And I could have called this one
but I, I didn't, but it's okay. Now, let us again, review part
part of the mission here is to thwart gas slash oil, but mainly
gas coming from the Iran Iraq pipeline through Syria into the
Russian port to thwart that, and to have the the pipeline from
Qatar going up north through Homs and Aleppo, by the way,
which is the most direct route into Turkey to circumvent the
gas in there, which of course is all part of the of the Ukrainian
issue. This, getting Putin out of our hair with his gas and all
that stuff. And we have something new happening in the
region with ISIL
This is a rare look at the fighting in Anbar Province,
Anbar Province. The days now Iraqi army and pro government
suddenly troops have been fighting against ISIL who are
entrenched in Hadith of town, helicopters flying overhead,
launching attacks and providing much needed air cover The Pro
government forces are inching ever closer to Hadith and a
conflict of victory in Anbar province, the suddenly troops
and the Iraqi army seems to have been given a morale boost and a
tactical advantage by the coalition airstrikes against
ISIL bases. However, there are significant numbers of ISIL
fighters in the area.
Okay, so this is the Anbar Province and bar, which is the
main hub for the Iraq Jordan pipeline. Now, normally, you
might not say, gee, what's the big deal with the pipeline from
Iraq to Jordan? Well, it becomes interesting when you're talking
to the State Department energy envoy, almost Hochstein good
news recently.
And it's you returned from Israel where a deal was signed
between Israel and Jordan for $15 million worth of gas from
Israel to Jordan over 15 years. That's the significance of that.
I don't know the significance may be that we just have to make
sure that we turn off the sandbar pipeline even though
there's no more gas, so it can only come from Israel.
So let me just say that the deal
was signed in Jordan to close to a Jay Leno you did there. Thank
you.
The companies that are offered the consortium of companies led
me Yes, guy. Yeah, Jay told me that yesterday.
Yeah, we're in between the companies that are offered the
consortium of companies led by an American company, Noble
Energy, and Houston, that operate the fields offshore
Israel, to supply gas to Jordan, this letter of intent, and it's
follows a previous agreement for smaller amounts of guests. I
think that what's really important to notice here is to
broaden the aperture a little bit and looking at broaden
the aperture a little bit. This is how we say this guy, by the
way, was a lobbyist for gas companies before he became the
the acting energy envoy for the United States State Department
Nice. Measure the cash, this guy's rolling,
and he looks like a two. That's when he when someone says, Let's
broaden the aperture, that's money talk. That's how bankers
talk people.
I think that what's really important to notice here is to
broaden the aperture a little bit and looking at the eastern
Mediterranean
broaden the aperture of your sphincter, as
a sub region onto its own, and including that Turkey and
Cyprus.
And Egypt. Do you hear this is this is everything we've been
talking about is coming true with this huge bonanza of gas
offshore Israel, Lebanon, hello, hello, Lebanon, you're on Deck.
This is so obvious. And then we cut off the pipelines to Jordan
people can you not see it
Israel and Lebanon. And looking at an area that has new
discoveries, some very significant discoveries in
Israel and Cyprus, and there's more drilling going on and
potentially in Lebanon, Egypt will have as well. Hello,
Lebanon, Lebanon, getting ready for the level bomb. But it's
changing the dynamic of how to look at energy as a tool for
cooperation.
Oh, and it's a tool for cooperation winner, you will
cooperate and
I would we see as the reason that the State Department was
involved in mediating some of these deals, not just the one
between noble and Jordan, but others as well in the region is
to look at how can energy serve after people talk about it for
many years as a resource, a conflict for resource for
conflict, to look at as a resource for cooperation, you
will,
you will obey you will obey a resource
for cooperation. As in if you don't cooperate, you don't get
none of this resource. That's your State Department. Yeah.
That guy is pretty cool. By the we want to hear more of him a
little bit. Because he talks about so here's the idea, the i
It's obvious that we a lot of people are involved in it. But
this is America, this Houston, this noble energy, who Clinton
has been advising and not Hillary bill. This is his big
advisory. And of course, it's a bush, a bush connection. It's
all the same people. They've been drilling in this Leviathan
field, which is off Lebanon, it's off Cyprus, by the way, we
got Cyprus, we nailed that this god that with the IMF, we got
Greece which is right up above it. So we can pass everything
through this is it's so beautiful. Let me get turkey.
No, it just wanted to pad it with you target so we can get it
into Europe. The whole point is we got to get it into the
customers hands which is in Europe, and and it's going to be
a very cold winter according to Amos Hochstein. But he has teams
on the ground,
let's get back to Ukraine and the energy crisis there. What
more can the US do to help make that country energy sufficient?
And not only over the long run, but
you know, this winter? So we are we have teams that are already
in that have been working in Ukraine and really,
what teams are these? What are they doing?
What do you think these teams are John?
Drilling experts
in energy in the Department of State are working in concert to
try to address some of the issues for this coming winter.
This is it's a challenge. And the challenge is trying to do as
much as we can. While we still want to support the process that
the EU is leading in the commission, on the trilateral
talks on resuming gas flows from Russia into Ukraine, but
obviously, it's a broader issue. And we want to make sure that
we're putting as much effort as we can, and teams are on the
ground on a regular basis.
Okay. Now, he's gonna say something very interesting about
Europe and about the legislation. We know that part
of the big push in Europe, which is a huge issue, particularly
for companies like the Netherlands, who are passed
through countries, they take Russian gas, they take Russian
oil, they store it, they stored underground, even in the
Netherlands, to the detriment of the northern part of the
country, which has earthquakes because of this. Earthquakes in
the Netherlands, can you believe it, then they pass it on the
that we have the the European Union, we have the monetary
union, they're pushing for the banking union. And of course,
they want the Energy Union, the end there are there's legalities
about gas that I didn't understand. You can't just if
you buy gas from from Russia, you you cannot if you're
Bulgaria, as an example, you cannot just sell that to someone
else. It's illegal. Except if you have the sanction and the
license to do so. So they're talking about creating the
Energy Union, and reverse flows within Europe, of people who
have gas pushing it back to other countries. It's
fascinating, good
point of departure to look at 2009. And in January 1, in 2009,
the Russians had shut down the gas to Ukraine, over a pricing
dispute and a payment dispute. And a few days later, they shut
down the supplies to the rest of Europe that gets its guests
through Ukraine. That dispute ended on January 20, of 2009.
The remarkable thing about looking at that period, and
looking at now and they've shut down the gas to Ukraine, again,
is what a different world we're in. And the reason we're in a
different world is because both the EU as an institution, and
the United States have been working diligently and hard to
fuck Putin for the last three, four years on this issue to make
that difference.
We got to stop it there because I think you don't overlook. So
this whole thing this is Putin's fault. Because I guess what they
cut the gas off in 2009.
They've set it off again to Ukraine. No, I
know. But shutting it off, again, is not the point. It was
the initial shutdown in 2009. But all these things into play.
Yeah. Because at that, because you don't do these things
overnight. You don't shut the gas off. Next thing you know,
you have bypasses everywhere, it would take takes years, right?
You got to spend years and years and years developing schemes and
OSI strategy. Yep. So they started in 2009, we could
probably get some details of that. They started to strategize
against the Russians in 2009, which makes sense within a lot
of different levels with some of the action going on in the
Middle East, including what we just saw on our show about
homes. And it which was years ago. And it used
to be only about Syria, which was about Russia vetoing going
in and removing Assad because it's Russia's business. It has
now turned into this whole Middle East thing. But we used
to look at Syria only in terms of Russia, because that's what
it was about at the time.
Right. So this is a really a labrets huge, huge schemes and
huge elaborate scheme to bite because of the because the
Russians pulled that stunt in 2009. The way that deal works is
you do a deal with it. We'll give you all the everything you
want. But you don't pull a stunt like that. No, because you're
now an unreliable customer. If I have like, I have the diamond as
big as the Ritz and I'm chopping pieces off because DeBeers wants
a certain amount every month and we agree that I'm going to chop
off a pound a month and chop it into diamonds are given to
DeBeers I can't all of a sudden say Screw you, I'm keeping my
dams or ilm, I'm gonna chop the whole thing up. You do these
deals with the Western countries with it in mind that you're part
of an evil Cabal. That is screwing the public, which is
the way it generally works. And you can't pull a stunt like
that.
We know of course, the reason why they turned it off is
because Ukraine wasn't paying the bill. That's the recent
shutdown. No, that was 2009 was exactly the same reason it
doesn't it also because they weren't, they weren't paying the
bill. And they were stealing gas that was meant for Europe, which
was transiting through
flushing it down. They still have their little pipeline at
the northern part and then all these other ways of getting it
through. They just had to deal with these criminals in the in
Ukraine. And we're not saying is not changed at all.
And I don't put it past and i By the way,
was this this plan went into effect in 2018.
It was Princess Leia who was running the show at the time the
gas Princess
cinco Shinko crazy Well,
she She's a thief. She's a crook. Yes, she was stealing all
this money from the Ukrainian people to look Putin. I'm not
gonna say anyone's good. But whatever the I don't even think
this this is not retaliation. This is just opportunism. Hey,
we have an opportunity here to grab at least 30% market share
of the European gas flows because we can't really stop the
40% that goes through the Nord Stream pipeline into Germany,
which Germany uses mostly for itself, but they're now also
benefiting because they they can trans, they can now transit this
through their own north to south pipeline into the European grid
tax free, mind you tax free. But then the opportunity for 30% of
the European gas market, particularly if you have this
huge gasfield right to the south with our special relationship
people, the Israelis, and we've already cleared the way in
Cyprus, we screwed the Russians out of Cyprus, I didn't forget
that all your money frozen, gone, we've got that get out,
get out, get out, Russians out of Cyprus. Cyprus is clear that
right underneath Greece, Greece is clear. It'd be bankrupt in 15
months. Put in we go in we go
us changes regulatory processes to make sure that gas can flow
inside of Europe. Even Russian gas once it enters the EU
doesn't have what's called the destination clause.
This is important. This is the destination clause. So this is
what we want. We want to be able to put our gas in it go to
anybody, which is what the European leaders want. They want
this Energy Union. So it's one big country negotiating for the
gas which you know, and boy do you set people up for for
bribery, and becoming disgustingly wealthy with it.
I'd like to be on that purchasing committee. That'd be
nice. Hi, I'm a buyer for EU gas
tech in the reverse flows, interconnectors. But we need to
do more together with the European Union together with
individual member states in Europe, to make it an integrated
and interconnected market. Gas needs to be able to flow in not
just north to south and east to west west to east
interconnecting company countries. So that there would
be not only the ability to bring in other sources of gas into
Europe in an easier way and to have that flow throughout Europe
based on need that will allow for diversity, but listen to
this based on need. They want to control it inside the EU even Do
you have a need? I think you could turn your thermostat down
a little bit. You don't really need that much. You watch you
watch this happen supply
diversity, the computerized gas meters or for
an ultimate level probably
easier way and to have that flow throughout Europe based on need
that will allow for diversity of supply, diversity of
transportation and diversity of fuel mix.
fuel mix. They're going to dilute it.
Yeah, we're Yeah, there must be some other stuff coming in. But
it's an odd thing to say out of the blue like that.
I have a final 45 seconds. I don't remember exactly what it
was
Israel's Energy Minister Silvan Shalom has said his nation is
becoming an energy superpower statement.
I think superpower may be a little bit of an overstatement.
Well, because I'll have to tell him to shut his mouth next time
big fat to shut up yo.
But there's no doubt that there's significant discoveries
in Israel. I, we avoid superpower in general as a term.
Someone's getting a memo. Hey, dude, do not use the term
superpower. And when you're talking about energy, okay.
But I do think that there are significant discoveries here.
But looking at it, the way I would differ with with the
Minister is that this is not about Israel. And it's not about
Jordan, or Egypt or Cyprus. It's about the region.
It's about the region about the money. Yes, it's about the
corporations.
And there's not enough gas to justify every country having to
spend $10 billion on their own infrastructure. We have to look
at it in a smart way, in a collaborative way, in a
cooperative way
to say, like,
you're not you're not doing it in a smart way. You might get a
Hellfire in your butt
who has infrastructure that already exists, who has the
roots, who has the gas, who has the oil and see how do you make
this all work in a way that at the end of the day, it's not
about governments and not about politics about generating
prosperity for the region.
Prosperity are we talking about? This is about generating
prosperity for the region, region. trouble lies the place.
That's what it is man verbalize, verbalize the region.
If you realize it, you have to rebuild and there's money in
that. Yeah.
The guy is literally saying, you know, hey, we've got to work
smart. And when someone says to you, let's be smart about this,
you should probably shoot him in the face. That's a good idea
because that guy is up to no good. Rub allies. I'm gonna
write that down. Hey, let's
be smart about this bill.
Why take chances? You know what I mean? Hey, hey,
let's ask the Yeah, guy. Hey, should we verbalize the region?
Yah, yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah. Yah, yah, I'm gonna show my
school by
donate to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh, yeah, that we found?
Well, you know, this is an interesting day. Because this is
the first time I've seen a spreadsheet that I don't have to
scroll. I know. Several things here. So let's thank a few
people who did come up to the plate. Steven Shipman in San
Rafael, California, who did send a short note in which I'll read
since he sent it in by hand. I completely says as part of my
initial donation, I completely derailed Adam from pushing the
karma button for me. But apparently he asked for karma.
And by having included a question in my note about his
Universal Audio bass recording process, this launched him into
full audio geek
mode. Don't remember this. When did this happen?
I do remember good. You were in a zone
where people will send me notes and say, Hey, I'm starting a
podcast. Can you please send me your setup? Let me know how it
works ludicrous. It's ludicrous. It took me 10 years to figure
this out.
You could teach it or you do a seminar. No, I
what I want to do is I want us to be selling the best podcast
in the universe kit in conjunction with Universal Audio
who make the box that we're now using and we could have our own
plugins, technical, it wouldn't be the
devil all this stuff. You're doing the divorce
Skype plugin, the curry Tourettes plugin.
But anyway, give him the karma that he didn't get.
I'm so sorry. That wasn't unintentional. That's okay.
You've
got karma.
David All Stein in Yukon, Oklahoma, 111 and 11. Thanks for
doing this show. I'm also concerned about the volatility
of donations and sustainability of this worthy venture. The most
underappreciated aspect of the no agenda show is the stellar
and art false audio engineering, which is well beyond the most
major networks. Sorry, I
didn't hear exactly what he said there. What did he say? It was
the what?
I can't make NK summit MoPhO it was
just stellar audio engineering. Thank you. Thank you for that
recognition.
It was just snapping again summoner in Calgary, Alberta and
we just get these 100 bucks nice going monthly contributed cannot
do that anymore because Pay Pal has permanently blocked me.
What what? How does that work? Oh, no.
Travis Spinelli in this super sure upper Decker if you know
what I'm saying? There is indeed Oh California $100 In any says
pay Paul. Pal. Cut off my last message please view email. Okay,
we will
that was probably him saying I gotcha. Oh, the upper
Decker place when he wants to be called I'm pooping in the tank.
And we could call him sir pooping in the tank 10 on Hoover
like that tank pooper. Giles. Pavao. And would it be good
she'll she'll she'll be Giles here G and a French guy. Chill a
French guy from Paris. You know, he's a good guy. Overdue
donation. Yeah, there's one French guy listening. He says,
nice. Sir Chad biderman or beat depending on whether you win.
He's one of our regulars. So I have to as soon as you send in a
note, I'll just take a look at it. He says he recently had it
put his cat, Mr. Focker to sleep. But I had a few extra
years with him. Thanks for the no agenda. Karma. Thanks again.
Oh, so he got the karma and credit he believes. And so
here's 100 bucks to make up for it. Thanks, Dan. Oh, Dan. Oh, in
Washington State somewhere. And he has a note. He says he's Dan.
Oh, Dan. Oh, I want to read this. This is one of the notes I
really didn't want to read. John. I had you did. She says I
appreciate your alternative thoughts about lateral thinking.
In other words, he wants me to comment on this and you too. I'd
be curious to know if you have any thoughts. I'm building a
writing regimen and what yours is, as you have been
consistently prolific at writing consistently good article over
the years, 30 plus years I might add, I example to you, or
question do you block out a specific day to write or do you
wait until inspiration hits you? No, you don't do not write that
way. If you have any interesting thoughts, advice, okay. Every
writer has a regimen they write for hours a day, typically
sometime, most of them from eight to noon. Every day. Eight
to nine. Yeah, I do an eight to noon. And most people do. It
evolved. And I read about other ones. And I always ask writers
this Avast. And Rice I've asked really rad Mary Lee, you've
talked to Anne Rice. Yeah, she was at a book signing in Boston
in a bookstore I would happen to be and she was roaming around
the bookstore in advance of the book signing and I talked to her
about writing she
did you say you look familiar to me. Did you say that? It's
kind of funny. I actually had to add, I don't know what she looks
like. But somebody told me. So I went over there. And I asked her
what were I always asked the same question. What word
processor do you use at the time she was using WordStar. And
what's your regimen when you write and she's right from eight
to 12 and I had breakfast with the Ray Bradbury once asked the
same questions and he said the same thing and Sadler's have to
Wow. Now I kind of asked you a question. Sure. Is your what is
your regimen? eight to eight to noon. And what word processor do
you use?
I use Microsoft Word.
Do you use the ribbon?
I unfortunately do. I do not like it. It slows me down.
And but what do you have for breakfast?
I usually have a eggs or oatmeal.
I'm disappointed what happened to the croissant coffee and
bubbly?
Why have croissant coffee for the show now okay,
that's your podcast regimen.
Yeah, I do a I have a croissant with jam and coffee. Normally I
drink tea.
I use a
vim duet. Vi M dim
V Victor India Mike. Yeah, I was using emacs for a while but I
think VIM is is better.
Yeah, well, okay.
That's a holy war. Yeah, I know. I know. I
shouldn't have said that.
Way before we go on to finish the note, I'm sorry. He says
across the army he read an article about lateral thinking
lateral thinking when his assumption most people believe
it is true. His challenge leading to new line of thought
that would probably not have been considered elsewhere. And
this way then he goes on with Peter Thiel, who's not a writer
and as far as I'm concerned just a really lucky person. What is
the thing you believe true that most do not I don't care that's
probably pretty much everything you can get sent me another
email as answered directly. Okay, now you can run. DUI with
Ebola story sent to Adam Thanks, guys. This is Alan Smith in
powder Springs, Georgia. You didn't read his email Josie rose
arrows.
I got a lot. Yeah, it was a very long
note. Yes. Okay. Somebody Ebola? Yeah.
Well, it was no hold on. It's coming back to me that there was
yes someone they were afraid that someone who was arrested
under DUI was probably puking in in the cell. They thought he had
a bola they locked everything down. It's
it's crazy damn story. This is gonna go on for months. Allen
Smith, powder springs, and that's Jose Riveros in New York
City. 7777 Which congratulating as far as seventh year sign up.
Row row.com. caucus rug.com Nick kiss in Oak Hill, Virginia.
Finally Virginia donation 7777 guilted him 70. He says 70
threes is k 4k of five.
That's Ben Smith. That's the next line. Oh, yeah.
Ben Smith is 73 73k a five s WC.
I just want to say something about Philip. That he said have
you given any thought into organizing as a nonprofit so
that our donations would be tax deductible? Yeah, we're never
going to do that.
Can I'll give you a little insight information? Yes,
please. So we study how to do fundraising at the show. And it
was discovered, actually, when we were doing some very heavy
research, that in fact, if you're a nonprofit organization,
not just taking the money and giving it straight to the
government like we do. It turns out you get less donations.
Yeah, we would actually get less money. According to all the
research if we were a nonprofit,
and it's not like we like we don't have to pay taxes anyway.
What's the benefit?
There's really no benefit. It's a benefit to the people donating
because they can get a tax deduction. But if you're only
donating to this show, which is a part of your life, just to get
a tax deduction. It's probably insincere, whatever the case is,
that was donations would go down. That's fact it is. It's
actually researched fact Hold on
a second. Let me just ask them a check for a second. Hello?
Hello. Yeah, yeah, guy. We don't donations go down if we were
nonprofit.
Uh, yeah, yeah.
Thank you. Yeah, that's okay. You can you can hang up now. Oh,
you'd click
and then people will get that reference Brian Brown, Orange,
California 6969 That'd be drunk. Share my junk donation or bring

asked the Yeah, guy.
Your Health. Yeah, yeah. Your health and your entertainment.
Well, entertainment.
Maybe that comes first. Because if you love me laughter is
medicine. Oh, yeah. exactly.org really helped slash karma for
everybody. There's a question. You've got karma.
To start with Brian Brown, who will be knighted in a moment
he's celebrating on Monday, the sixth and bareness Tania Wyman
of Manhattan all surveyed on Monday, happy birthday from your
friends and your lovers, here is the best podcast in the
universe. Three nice things to go here and I'm very excited
about that. Many of these just came through except for our
instant night, the Thomas Gaskin came through after years of
supporting the show. And that will eventually become barren at
some barons, as long as we're on the air until the licensing
regime
gets muddy information will be perpetual. So in some day, 1000
years from now, their relatives may benefit.
That's right. And you will have a portion of the new sub
subdivided countries or something like that. I see you
have your blade and let me grab mine here real quick. Perfect.
And I'd like to ask Bogdan Landro and Thomas Gaskin and
Brian Brown come on up to the podium here gentlemen, all three
of us for the best podcasts in university might have $1,000 or
more and we are thereby very happy to welcome you to the
roundtable that night so the names that are pronounced Steve
served in Poland, Sir Thomas Gaskin and Sir Brown I have
orange groves gentlemen for you we've got hook doesn't blow ran
boys and sharpen a girlfriend experience and good bourbon hot
librarians and Jager bombs. Three gauges in the bucket of
fried chicken bong hits and bourbon or maybe just some
mutton in Mead. It's always our favorite there at the end. Go to
no agenda nation.com/rings Pick up your rings and your sealing
wax and you'll get your new your official certificate of your
peerage and you'll be put on the peerage map and thank you for
supporting the program it truly is the only way we can make it
go
okay, well I'm dying here. I opened the window. There's no
air movements to
warm Yeah, see, I was mean I had this long. I got
some bad let's get a couple of news items out of the way. Okay,
let's do this. Good. Let's just start with Sark. Cozy and
trouble. This is interesting.
Nicola psychoses camp is in the spotlight. Once again. Three of
his allies were charged with forgery and abuse of trust
following the so called Big maloom scandal when he was a PR
company that dealt with psychoses campaign meetings
ahead of the 2012 presidential election. But it's a cute it's
accused of faking its bills. So that's our cozies UMP party
could spend much more cash on the campaign than his rivals.
This is seen as a huge blow for the former French president
because he recently announced his political comeback.
No well done.
I don't think you're coming back my friend. Goodbye.
So they decided to get rid of him which is the way it happens.
They say get fat guy it was the gonna be the head of the IMF.
Dominique Strauss Kahn. Yeah, guy. Yeah.
This is the clip is WTF Mexico. This is not being reported very
much. But apparently most of the drug cartel people have taken
over much of Mexico by taking over the police departments and
the city governments opening stories like this.
Around 100 officers cordoned off the area, after authorities
discovered a fresh mass graves on Saturday. They're located on
the outskirts of the same village in southern Mexico where
dozens of students went missing last week on September 26. The
students from a chilled Pachinko teaching college are protesting
in guala after boarding buses in a gwala the police fired on
them. Three of the students were killed and 43 remain missing.
One of the use confirmed that the police drove off with
students
approach the mother maintained Yes, yes, I saw around 30 or 40
friends being taken away by the local police.
On Thursday, 1000s block roads and Shilpa Chinko to ask the
government for help finding the missing and to protest against
police corruption. 22 A gwala police officers had been
detained in the incident. And investigators confirmed that the
local police are linked to organized crime.
Hey, but I thought there was an update to the story where they
found a mass grave with the 43 kids in it.
No, no the mass grave was found before Oh, okay. That's what
they triggered the whole thing. They found a mass grave. Oh,
okay.
Before you go on to your next clip, because I know you're on a
roll. But I did want to just say that because a number of people
have sent these news items to us. When Ferguson happened. We
both identified that. What was it was being used to get people
to vote Democrat. Yeah. And he all the news articles, voter
registration and Ferguson surges after the brown killing
everywhere. Exactly You nailed it this was your your initial
and correct analysis that this was all this talk about you know
horrible Whitey killing Blackie all of this stuff was all about
getting people to register to vote they were out there while
the protests were going register vote vote often vote Democrat
and there it is
successful. Yeah, they do good work those Democrats do
fantastic work.
I have in fact talking about that you might as well play this
clip this was on one of the this I believe, is Hillary Clinton's
former chief of staff made regarding when she was Secretary
of State not chief of staff but her her foreign strategist or
something along those lines. But this the American is screwed
clip. This is very interesting to listen to.
Well, I would love for national security to play a bigger role
in general, because I think the word democracy the American
people should have a say, but our Congress is not now
organized for the American people to have a say it's highly
gerrymandered. So districts are going to people who are of the
party that has gerrymandered that district and that's pushing
districts to the fringes. And the way that the votes are being
jerry rigged is similar. So you get a Veterans Affairs vote with
an Iran Sanctions vote stuck onto it, or a pull out of Iraq
vote with or, or pull troops out of Iraq vote with a rock funding
vote stuck together. And these are gotcha votes. The whole
reason that these votes are being structured is so that an
attack ad can be written later for whoever votes for against
the vote to get them in the midterms. Because of that kind
of gerrymandering of the districts, as long as we have a
congress in which you know that if you vote on a serious
national security issue, there's going to be attack ads at the
midterms, and you're going to be hurt in the polls. You're not
going to get serious thinking and serious debate and that's
where we are right now. So the politics of this issue suggests
to me that we need to pull pull back on how politicized it is
until we can change with politics and I think we have
what eight more years until the census happens again. Slow
Where does uplifting information for everybody?
Where does the term gerrymandering come from
it actually, you know, it may be a guy named gerrymander. Look it
up first. Or some I don't want
to during this from here we go. The word gerrymander originally
written Jerry dash mandar was used for the first time in the
Boston Gazette in 1812. The word was created in reaction to a
redrawing of Massachusetts congressional election districts
under then Governor here comes Elbridge Gerry.
Vee, I guess they tack Mandarin to Jerry. Yeah. Yeah, that was
the first. Yeah. 1812. So it begins then. And it just gets
more and more fine tuned to the point where some of these
congressional districts in California, for example, have
like, you know, a thin a thin line through a bunch of
communities and then up to a housing development. And it
goes, maybe, you know, 50 miles long or 100 miles of this little
thin line of people that live in certain kinds of areas. So you
have they're going to California has been gerrymandered to death,
but it's mostly to favor Democrats. And so you have a
state run by the Democrats. And everybody's raise happy
Democrat.
I'm a real happy Democrat. We've been redistributed here in
Austin. I think
it's always designed to screw the public. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Um, you know, we
were talking about the Department of Homeland Security
and how messed up it must be. And I found this article in the
examiner. I just wanted to read to you what's going on in the
Department of Homeland Security, because this is not getting
enough attention at all. You want a little rundown of what's
going on in this in this outfit? This 200,000 person outfit with
the of course this
they're gonna fold their tents and close up shop? Yeah, I don't
know.
US immigration officer was sentenced on October 3 to two
and a half years in federal prison for accepting bribes in
the form of cash and egg rolls from applicants seeking
citizenship and green cards that she was in Santa Ana. She said
to her, Hey, give me 300 egg rolls and then told an immigrant
applicant to pay $150 for it. Bribery though, is not uncommon
to the Department of Homeland Security. Immigrations and
Customs Enforcement ice Special Agent James Dominguez admitted
guilt in his role in a bribery scream scream that illegally
funded confidential DHS records to a Los Angeles immigration
lawyer
Nice.
His name is Kwang mon li a former who was a former US
immigration official doctored information and secret
government databases and sanctioned sham marriages
involving foreign nationals. The plea deal offered to Domingues
was a bargain since it allowed them to be held accountable only
for making false statements. So he doesn't even go to jail
corruption and the Department of Homeland Security former
supervisor of the Department of Homeland Security Office of
Inspector General OIG Eugenio Pedraza was found guilty of
conspiracy and falsifying government documents. He
conspired with other ice special special agents to falsify
investigative reports pertaining to bribery, drug and alien
smuggling. They were placed on administrative leave, and
reached non prosecutorial agreements with the government
all charges were dropped against them with prejudice, which means
they can't be prosecuted, of course, but this is a pattern.
Frank Johnston, former Assistant Special Agent in Charge of ice
Homeland Security Investigations, received 24
months in federal prison for obstruction of justice giving
false information to a federal prosecutor and a federal judge
and devising a scheme to have his wife paid $600,000 by the
agency as a consultant 24 months that's pretty good deal for 600
grand. Former ice agent Richard Kramer, one of the highest
ranking immigrant agents arrested on corruption charges
provided drug track drug traffickers with confidential
law enforcement background checks that helps smugglers
avoid capture. He was sentenced or charged with multiple counts
of drug smuggling, and face 20 years in prison sentenced to 24
months in prison. The Tux is a great outfit. TSA manager Brian
below smoke
dope in some of the states in the life I think Texas is one of
these states.
TSA Yeah. TSA manager Brian Jermaine Livingston was running
a prostitution ring out of a Crown Plaza Hotel in Maryland
pleaded guilty, no prison time for $500 Fine. Of course he was
the services were that was just somebody didn't pay their bill.
You go CPB officer manual Salazar rod drug smugglers to
transport 1700 pounds of marijuana through his inspection
Lane in exchange for a bribe of $10,000 a 24 month probation is
in this is really unbelievable.
It just doesn't even touch the surface of all the petty thieves
that work for these operations are stealing laptops, opening
suitcases believe in you know and taking stuff out. Yeah,
there's so much of that. That goes I just cringe to think
about checking luggage but she has a camera in it.
Yeah. Oh no, you can't do that. You can't do that. And then my
favorite article here. This is from the independence in the UK
is scientist. The headline is scientists to fast track
evidence linking global warming to wild weather. And this is
this is really phenomenally interesting. Scientists are to
challenge the climate change skeptics, by vastly improving
the speed at which they can prove links between a heatwave
or other extreme weather event and madman Matt manmade changes
to the atmosphere. It typically takes about a year to determine
whether human induced global warming played a role in a
drought storm, torrential downpour or heatwave and how big
a role it played. This allows climate skeptics to dismiss any
given extreme event as part of the natural weather variation in
the immediate aftermath. While campaigners automatically blame
it on global warming. By the time the truth comes out, most
people have lost interest in the event. The Oxford University
scientists and them involved in a project say hey, we've got an
idea. They're developing a new scientific model that will
shrink to as little as three days the time it takes to
establish or rule out a link to climate change. Another model,
well, this is fantastic. Yeah, this is great, too. They have a
model and the minute it rains three days later, they can say,
Science Center. Shampoo. That's right, kids good work.
We had a guy local guy got a lot of attention. It's grad student,
although they played it up as those guys like some sort of a
world class expert in climate science. And he came up with a
similar conclusion about local events like that. I think he'd
probably probably was part of this program. And it's always to
the head that you tweak the model. It's always a model a
computer model at somebody, they can't predict the weather with a
computer model for the next five days with any degree of
accuracy. I think there's accuracy 65% Yet this is
computer models can do these these fantastic projections and
they and they don't and they're not even close to being right
both ways. I have received an email from one of computer
mouthing bugs me Well,
thank you. I received an email from one of our producers and it
was from his cable provider which is optimum cable. And he
says he's been with optimum cable for a long time. I don't
know where optimum cable is.
I don't have it. He will again, keep talking. I'll check it out.
Do you check out where it is?
Optimum cable, and so they send him an email. Twice a year
during the spring and fall, you may experience some degree of
television interference due to a phenomenon known as sun outages.
This q&a will help you understand what they are and how
it will affect you. What is a sun outage? A sun outage is an
interruption in satellite signals called but caused by
interference from solar radiation. The interference is
caused when the sun is in direct line with the communication
satellite and the sun's radiation overwhelms the
satellite signal. How long did they last interruption TV
servers do to somehow just can last up to several minutes a
day. How do they affect TV watching but all the obvious
things there, but then they supply a spreadsheet. So first,
they have they have outages here. And they have a little
table. This fall Sun outages are expected to occur between
October 4 yesterday and October 12 During the following times.
And this is just a small table to Saturday, October 4 Start
4:29pm and 5:23pm. So they're predicting exactly when these
outages are supposed to happen. Let's just do Sunday, October
5 9:14am is when it should start 5:25pm So all day today you
could have an outage and this is kind of a little table within
they have a full schedule of Sun outages John they have it broken
down by cable network and how many minutes and seconds they
expect an outage. I don't understand how they can do this.
I don't know the geniuses
and I put this in the in the show notes so people can take a
look at it. Just give it let's give me one name name a cable
channel. Anyone?
Cable Channel.
Any channel? Yes at the end of ESPN. Okay, we have ESPN. Do you
want zone one classic HD Zone Two HD HD? That's 96. Today you
can expect it to start at 4:26pm and end at 4:34pm How do they
know this?
Ask them It's baffling. This battery optimum isn't Long
Island. Part of the of the shore the Connecticut shores scattered
about the New York area is part of Cable Vision which is like
science. Science is also a bunch of good interesting availability
in Poughkeepsie.
Poughkeepsie. Yes, of course. I just found that to be
fascinating that they could Yeah, I think you're stumbled
onto something.
Baby doc Duvall. Yay is dead at six. Yeah.
I thought he was dead already. That's what's
up. I'm sure it was convenient. I'm sure we didn't need him
testifying. I think there was some testimony coming up for
him.
So I'm watching there's a crazy show on called Ford museum or
something is some some very overproduced show on that's on
Saturday mornings, beautiful production. It was some kind of
a goofball, you know, science guy. And they talk about, you
know, the science of this and the science of that. So they ran
the story, which was just an eye roller. And this is the eight
holes from Austin, and they're great invention.
Oh, thanks.
One of the biggest pains when you're grocery shopping is in
dealing with the cart. Yes, yes, it gives you antiseptic wipes to
clean the handle, but then you end up pushing it with your knee
until dries. There's always one wheel that likes to mess with
you. What if he didn't even have to touch that shopping cart?
What if it followed you around like a loyal puppy with a
basket? Here's Adam Yamaguchi.
Who doesn't know this drill? Can you believe we've been pushing
around this metal contraption since 1937. But that shopping
cart with a battery over your Meijer and her mom used an
Eleanor Roosevelt used is still pretty much unchanged. I'm back.
Today they're building cars that drive themselves. Why do we
still rely on technology from nearly 80 years ago to help us
gather our fruits, vegetables and cookie dough ice cream?
That's all about to change thanks to creative minds like CK
Sambhal and Eric Schneider at chaotic moon in Austin, Texas.
They showed me their prototype for smartcard. It's a shopping
cart with a brain
and here it is. Here it is. So this is the next generation of
shopping cart. Yes. Or at least one version of it. I would say
why did you decide that this needed to be reinvented now a
shopping cart works for carrying things and helping you shop. But
with all the new technologies that are out there, there's lots
of interesting things you can do. So if your kids
are having too much chocolate or too much candy and you're having
to restock every few days See, this will tell you Yeah, and
you can actually take the information that this is
gathering and it will actually warn you in the store so that
when you start to drop in, you know, that bar of chocolate,
it'll say, Whoa, you're overfeeding your kids on
chocolate according to the settings that you've set up for
your children and when might I see this at my market? It could
be in the next year or so. There are scanners and stores there
are iBeacons starting to be deployed the stores to tell you
location of where things are, but I think we're almost there.
Time to move out of Austin.
Seriously, people would bull crap.
This is Internet of Things bullshit. That's awesome. Also
add too much chocolate up too much chocolate what businesses
are of yours shopping cart?
Well, I set it up with the profile for my children because
I'm I'm a moron. That can't feed my children properly. I'm sick
and tired of this people you're going to be so sorry when you
grow up. When you figure it all out. There's going to be this
moment of awakening to be I wasted all my life on this
bullshit. You stupid morons. Listen to this high school this
is this is the this is the competitive world we live in
people
Monday nights JV football game began just like any other game
for Brandon Bulldogs quarterback Mason, Matthew and his team was
up 21 to nothing against the Northwest Rankin Cougars in the
second quarter. Then the Cougars quarterback got hurt and
couldn't continue. They tried
to play some different kids at quarterback you know any other
position would have been fine because you got other line when
you got other receivers you got other running backs but you only
want them to have one quarterback.
The Brandon Bulldogs had two quarterbacks to utilize
Northwest Vancouver's didn't have any so it was about this
time coach Peterson approached Matthew and said we're going to
keep you in this game. But as quarterback for the other team
here he is on the field the only red jersey on the Cougar side
the other brand and quarterback continue the game for the
Bulldogs. And Matthew did well clinching two touchdowns for the
rival team and driving for a third when time ran out.
What is going on?
That is nuts. Any of the running backs could play quarterback.
Most of the receivers can play quarterback This is bullcrap.
You only have the one guy because nobody everybody else on
the team is too stupid play back throw ball. We borrow one of
your guys.
All right, but I'm gonna leave my final clip
and I'm done. You death that should have been your final cut.
That was a great clip now
and this one's the best. This is one of those. The God the truth
wants to get out clips from a politician. And this is David
Cameron don't know that guy. That guy from the Gitmo nation
east. Listen up citizens of Gitmo nation east. Here's how he
really feels about you.
This party is the union for hard working parents for the father
who reads his children's stories at night because he wants them
to learn the mother who works all the hours God sends to give
her children the best start. This party is the trade union
for children from the poorest estates and the most chaotic
homes. This party is the union for the young woman who wants an
apprenticeship for the teenagers who want to make something of
their lives. This is who we resent. These are the people
that we are fighting for. Oh, brother,
this is who we resent.
The people resent. It's true.
It's the truth that came out.
Okay, you can take Clip of the Day.
Yes, I knew. I'll take it by save the best for last, like
whipped cream on your banana split, which we're gonna make
and get out. I tell you, Hey, are you doing the tech news?
Swear twit. Hello. Oh, no, you're going to Los Angeles? Of
course not da No, of course not. I'm sorry. Yeah, I forgot to say
you're going to Los Angeles. bengalese. You can't come right.
I gotcha. Sorry about that. Hey, well.
I was invited. What are you flying? I was invited. What
are you flying? What airline?
I'm flying southwest.
Oh, that's my favorite. What's your boarding? Do you know your
boarding number yet?
You're like, oh, it's no I always pay a bribe not like you
I pay the extra 25 bucks to get auto an auto boarding pass.
I have pre check. I don't know what your problem is.
Pre check doesn't give you a better boarding pass number.
Gives me a good feeling. Yeah, well, that's true. I usually get
coming to you from the capital of the drone Star State but we
are looking for a low risk patient with Ebola walking
around right here in Austin in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley. They were still hot,
it's gonna stay hot. And I'm going down to Los Angeles where
it's still hot and staying hot I John C. Dvorak will be
back on Thursday right here on no agenda, remember to
vorak.org/and A that's how we that's how we
and that's the story. There's a need for rescue mission when the
world is threatened. The world needs help calls on America
and that's the story.
This I think, could be one of the most important things that
we don't know that we don't know. Right? There's there's the
stuff that you know, you don't know and there's the stuff that
you know that you know, and there's the stuff that you don't
know that you know, and but the most destructive can be the
state to paraphrase Donald Rumsfeld. The most destructive
can be the stuff that you don't know that you don't know. Adios.
